FastBuds Girl Scout Cookies - Round 2!!

@ZAuto, I wouldn't be too worried about the humidity - my last grow I didn't do any humidity control at all, and she came out great! Also, I really recommend the TS-1000. Great choice. My girls seem to be loving that light. Of course, the end results will be the true proof in the pudding, but it definitely is the best light I've used so far. Good luck with your grow!

@TickTockCroc, Thanks, man - I did a bunch of small things today to try improve the situation and did notice that roots seem to be doing a bit better from the things I had tried previously, so hopefully it will pick up again - but even then, there's a part of me that glad I'm learning! Will definitely check out the humidifier, sometimes my tent drops to like 30%, but most of the time it's at a constant 55%... Not ideal for veg, but it's fine for spending no money on that side yet. But those 30% days freak me out a little. Side note - I just noticed you're using the TS-1000, and I had ordered one for myself a little while back. Shipping ground to a holt recently with COVID19 in my country, but hoping it will arrive soon as restrictions are lifting. Very glad we can trade notes! Have a good one 👊

@ZAuto, Thank you! I did manage to sort the humidity issue out, I ended up getting a better humidifier (Amazon Basics brand) that works really well. At this point I don't need the humidifier on that much. I unfortunately though dealt with some major setbacks - one of the GSC plants went super droopy overnight - it looked like it was dead. Same with the other GSC plant but nowhere near as bad. It was shocking. I've understood that to be an underwatering issue (left it for 6/7 days without water which I thought would be OK). They have since bounced back with a good watering, and fed them again with minimum nutes after 2 days since that watering. I had to prune off a lot of fan leaves on the GSC that got hit bad, as they dried up and died, but I think think that plant is now happy without them. Bud sites are starting to swell. Will post update pics tomorrow. As for light getting in your buckets, that might be an issue, as I did a cup grow in a transparent plastic cup and it did NOT like the light hitting the roots. Hope you're able to get them sorted!

@Fast_Buds, Of course!! I love your strains. I did your Girl Scout Cookies last year and was really impressed with the medicinal effects, even considering my very high tolerance. So, here we go again! Also will be doing your Gelato, just waiting for those seeds to arrive (delays with my local mail system due to the current world situation! Yikes! But have these Girl Scout Cookies in the meantime!). I will give you a message if I need any assistance, gave them their first feeding yesterday and they are LOVING it! Hope all of you at FastBuds are safe and well in this current situation. Peace, Love, Good Health & Happiness ┏(＾0＾)┛ -TickTockCroc

@Papaluke, hey, i'll help you. If you a dealing with LIVING SOIL, a soil full of organic matter, or with a bit of it, and lots of microorganisms, they will act as buffer and balance the soil when you water out of the range. Your only concern is to use water without chlorine, so you don't kill them, and to take care not to over do with nutes. A living soil is the answer to a complete and easy growing.
