Welcome to my latest auto run! The team at Fastbuds kindly sent me out all of their new Original Auto lineup and this grow will showcase a lot of them.
All seeds are in pots that will ultimately be too small for them, 5L plastic pots. However I want to try out a load of different small autos. See what kind of yield I can manage. A couple seeds haven't come out of the soil yet, so I've started the germination process of a Chemdawg and AK seed each. These will act as backup seeds.
Not much else to say. Keeping humidity between 60-70%, temperature around 25 degrees celsius. Led light is a little over 50cm away from plants. Want them to grow up to that light. Got a feeling they're gunna be tiny.
The basil in the tent is recovering from a recent transplant, had had to adjust to tent life at the same time. New growth at the top of the plants show healthy green leaves. So I'm happy. Having a continuous basil supply is great!!
Growth looks good from last week. Some outward leaf growth and a bit of vertical height.
Seeing signs of calmag being needed already, so just given them 1ml/L towards the end of this week. Some root stimulant of the same volume too.
Leaves showing signs of being exposed to too much moisture. Over spraying leaves is the problem, my bad. Should just leave them to it.
Chemdawg and AK came out of the soil yesterday, so really happy to see 8 strains in the tent!! Pots are really small so interested to see how they will end up. Humidity sitting between 60-70%. Water every few days
Big growth since last week! But I'm going to keep this short.
Growdiaries... Your website sucks. Uploading this week three is probably going to delete all images on week 2 upload. And last week, week 2 upload removed week 1 images. For such a popular site it's a shame it sucks so much to use right now.
Battling some brown spots on a couple. Started nutes.
Environment is pretty set right now. A couple degrees celcius higher would be ideal but I'm happy.
This looks like it'll be the last full week of veg. Lady parts are visible on some girls and they've obviously shot up in growth too.
Responded well to another round of LST this week. Also defoliated more than I have previously, which was just one or two fan leaves.
Amnesia is looking strong, followed closely by Northern Lights. Russian appears to be the baby of the lot.
Remember the two right girls, Chemdawg and AK, are 7-10 days younger than the rest of the tent.
The girls are well into flower. Humidifier has been removed, plants have a little more space and they're shooting up! More LST this week, first round on the smaller girls too.
Loving these Original Auto seeds from Fastbuds. All flowering at the same time, easy plants to manage height wise too. These girls would be huge in big pots 😏
The basil in the tent is very happy!
They look beautiful! Nutrients were all lowered to accommodate the lot, as well as noticing slight burnt tips a week or two ago.
Everything is running smoothly. Bud development from here on out after a bit of defoliation to allow for air flow and light penetration.
Another smooth week, upped nutrients on everything but the grow nutes by only a tiny bit. Time to fatten up now please buds.
Progress is looking great.
Slowly fattening up. A little concerned over the Lemon Ak and Northern Lights. Both buds are way behind and the plants don't smell all that nice.
The others however smell and look amazing. Real small plants, but that was kinda the point.
Humidity is now way down thanks to heavy defoliation. 35% and there's nothing I could do about it if I wanted to.
Stopped giving nutrients now. The northern lights isn't going to be finished in time, but I need to chop soon to start the next grow. Hopefully I can squeeze in one more auto grow before the summer.
Edit: final week for these. Quicjly wet trimmed majority of unwanted leaves. Hanging up now 🤞
The mini pot auto grow is complete! Got just over 4oz from 8 plants, 8 strains. Averaging half oz from each plant. Really good quality small ish buds, covered in trichomes.
No nutrient issues this time around. Northern lights and Lemon AK could have done with another week or two, but the rest were ready and I wanted to harvest.
Stay safe everyone!!
