Decided to give Chemdawg from FastBuds a solo diary. Started her in water on 4/2 and let her sit for 2 days about, just until I saw a tail poking out of the shell. Then I placed her into a rockwool cube ph'd to 5.5 with some root stimulator as well. She sprouted on 4/5 I let her stay in the humidity dome until 4/11.
**4/11**
Transplanted into a 5 gallon fabric bag filled with Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil
**4/16**
She seemed to be in shock from the transplant not a huge amount of growth yet. Going to keep my eye on her the next couple of days.
**4/18**
She's starting to show signs of growth, glad to know her roots are setting.
**4/20**
Happy 420 everyone, Chemdawg is starting to look good I'm glad she bounced back from the shock.
**4/21**
It looks like she's responding well to this soil, no major signs of nute burn. I've read that the Ocean Forest is a little heavy in nutes and usually burns seedlings, but this girl is loving it as shes got some nice green to her.
**4/23**
Doing great, from her leaves I see she's getting the right nutes so far. Gunna wait another few days before I start some LST to get the same canopy as my other 3 FastBuds.
**4/25**
Well today was the start of her first round with LST, she seems to have tighter node spacing like her sister Chemdawg. Gave her some plain water with CalMag as shes using the nutes in the Ocean Forest soil. *Carpe Diem*
**4/27**
Did some more adjustment with LST last night she looks like she's going to be just like her sister, shorter compact with a bushy cola.
**4/28**
Cant get lazy with the LST otherwise these quick autos will get out of control. Tied her down some more and clipped one site on the back bottom as she was just going to be an issue trying to get bigger later on. Gave her the first watered feed as she's pushing a month in the Fox Farm soil, I went with the 4th weeks recommended ratio so I'll keep an eye out for her response.
**5/2**
I havent updated in a week I'm sorry, but luckily I still did LST. Spreading her out as best I can, I'm trying to avoid having a clutter of foliage like my other Chemdawg. Gave her another week 4 veg feed since I'm not seeing any signs of flower yet so I'll hold off til next week possibly.
**5/4**
Well I'm starting to see the preflowers on just about all the nodes, she looks to be stretching also. Loving how shes spreading out for now just sticking to LST.
**5/7**
Been 3 days and shes definetly filling the bag out with the LST. I'm seeing more white hairs, today will be her last veg feed as shes still transitioning between flower.
**5/10**
Well shes in flower mode, over the past few days shes transitioned. Yesterday I gave her a straight water and cal/mag feed, going to give her another water feed then a flower feed to try and use up some of the nutrients.
**5/14**
Wow shes really getting tall considering shes been LST, I cant imagine how she would look if I hadn't probably twice the size. I'm pretty happy with how many sites I'm getting, she is definitely going to be bigger than her sister.
**5/16**
I just got home from my trip and wow she got BIG, biggest in the tent almost double the size if not more than her sister. I'll be giving her a flower feed tomorrow.
**5/20**
At day 46 from sprout and shes already producing trichomes from top to bottom sites, with a leaf rub you can get a slight aroma of citrus.
**5/25**
Well shes showing signs of obvious deficiencies, I've been giving her CaliMag and her ph is about 7 so I'm confused might need to give her more. Aside from that shes beautiful and love how tall she got along with the bud development, great combo.
Greetings from Russia! Your plants look great! Keep developing in the same spirit! if you are interested in following the adventures of weed in Russia, subscribe to my diaries
@RussianGrower, there are some resilient strains that can thrive in colder conditions but like you said it all comes down to great genetics. I'm using autoflowers just to have a constant predictive grow.
@EyeMKing, Climate in outdur means a lot, I realized it growing a couple of years of southern geneticists, they survive no matter what, but give less result! This year I bought a lot of genetic stabilized in Northern Europe and Canada, as well as hybrids on the basis of the Russian Ruderalis. Unfortunately, due to the cold climate and late light conditions in the Central part of Russia, photoperiudic plants do not have time to Mature, so autoflowering bushes help us out.
I would like to grow a photopiridny plant using the partisan method this year! But referring to my extensive experience, I am extremely skeptical even of those varieties that are declared as a fast version of flowering in 7 weeks! The lighting was impossible to deceive, so only Ruderalis!
I may have to go to another region of the country to do this
@RussianGrower, thank you very much. I've subscribed to a couple of your diaries, I'm definitely interested to see how climate affects different strains.
Hey there,
Thanks so much for running a diary of our genetics 🙌
Let us know if you need any assistance, we’re more than happy to help.
Happy Growing !!! 🌱☘️🌴🍀🌿🌳
shes a very very very hungry girl. Check out how yellow and crispy my girl is. I regret even flushing her. She will only get hungrier my friend! I promise!
Happy growing! :)
