01.25.20 started germinated 3 of the Fastbuds Gelato Auto seeds, they should be ready to plant in 3 days. I grow 100% Organic - my grow medium will be; Mother Earth 70/30 Coco / Earth Worm Castings / Earth Dust Base & Bloom / Xtreme Gardening Mykos Mycorrhizae / Harvest Gold Organics Premium Soil Conditioner (Silica) / Organically Done-Bloom Boost I mixed the first 5 items together and watered with dechlorinated H20 mixed Recharge - I like to let this COOK for a week before I plant - If you want my ratios, please message me The microbial environment should carry the plants through the veg stage - about 4 weeks in will top dress with the Earth Dust Bloom and Organically Done-Bloom Boost, using compost teas and kelp extract.

02.08.20 - right at the 14-day mark 2 of the seedlings look perfect, one came up almost 5 days behind the others, looked like the soil was too hot for the little girl but she is bouncing back and sprouting new tops - one thing I have found in these situations that sometimes they self top and we will have to wait and see. I diluted compost tea is in on the schedule for Monday. It would be helpful if Growdiearies would add the option to select dry amendments by weight, frequency, and application. I bloomed this COCO with Earthdust Base, worm castings, mycorrhiza, Harvest Gold Organics Premium Soil Conditioner (high in Silica), and Recharge for about 3 weeks. Then planted at day 30 will top dress with Earthdust Bloom, then right as the plant starts to flower will top dress with Organically Done Bloom Boost. Using compost teas during the growth. 02.10.20 - Today just watered the plants with my first compost tea, it looked amazing, had a beautiful white protein foam on the top - I will have a look at the plant's first thing in the morning and see if they are dancing! 02.11.20 - Just a few picture updates today - the little Gelatos are doing fine - #3 continues to fight back, I am surprised it is still alive and doing so well.

02.26.20 - Day 35 - plants are starting off slow, but it has been the same old story with this soil combination, I removed Plant #3 as it was just too small and a waste of light. I think I might try some organic fertilizer to see if I can help them along. 03.02.20 - Day 40 and last day of this week, today just continued with practices, after lights out this evening when they come back on I wi; do more LST, these plants should shart to show pre-flower pistils any day and they will be ready to stretch! 03.05.20 Day 43 Veging nicely, plant #2 looks like it may be showing signs of flowering,

03.19.20 Day 57 / So for less than $4.50 built a personal Trellis we will see how it works, I think it can be reused as well. 03.19.20 Day 57 / Today removed most of the LST Tie Downs, these girls are just entering flower and are about to stretch, as they do I will organize the growth to keep the canopy even as possible, today I topped dressed with OG Bloom, and watered it in. We should see some truly nice growth.

03.24.20 Day 62 / the girls continue to stretch in the Bamboo SCROG and just look amazing, defoliated and Loli-Popped plant #1 it never staled just revved up! I am expecting some serious bud explosion with these ladies! 03.22.20 Day 60 / So early in week 9 the plants are in full flower and stretching nicely, the bamboo Trellis are doing great, did a Rootwise inoculation today, (Microbe Boost) cant wait to see the buds explode, I have some BIO-Biz products coming Tuesday, thinking I may see what I can make happen by adding this to the routine.

04.09.20 - Day 80 (Psst, FastBuds 17 days past due!) These plants are trucking along, the buds on plant #2 are just getting fat, plant #1 seem to be splitting into smaller buds, but just packing on the frost. I added a pic of a bud and the leaves around it are just hammered with frost! 04.06.20 - Day 73 Just checked on the plants and they look sweet, had to take a quick pic of one of the pretty buds! 04.04.20 - Day 71 after switching over to Bio-Biz for a few weeks these ladies have just taken off, the leaf frost is crazy, the buds are packing ob weight and just doing awesome!

I truly enjoyed this grow, the plants started off very slow, and would have loved to see a bit more pre flower stretch, needed to work the training a bit more, but work farm balance is hard 😊 – Felt I needed to train the plants apart more for better light penetration. I purchased another light, should blow up my tent much more, over all this is one of the best strains I have grown so far, and will grow it again and again!
