So I started germinating my seeds with the cup of water method on the morning of the 25/04/20 on that same day I filled up small 9cm pots with John inns #1 for seedlings and gave it a soak through and left too sit in garden. I then this morning 27/04/20 removed all my seeds from there cups as they had all cracked and slightly shown tap roots. so I got them potted up and out in the garden however today’s weather has went slightly downhill compared too the recent weeks but I have great confidence they will be sweet. I’m going too repot in about 2 weeks time into 14 litre pots with some John inns #3 if I can get my hands on some multi purpose compost them I’m going too do a 50:50 mix as have read the John inns is good but can be abit hard upon watering and what not. So that could be an idea I know they don’t generally like repotting but so long as done at the right time “not too early or late” then they shouldn’t have too many issues with there transition. I have chosen too use fast buds as have a mate who grows them indoors and never failed too impress me with the flowers. Ideally these will stay outside 24/7 so they are instantly used too the changes in temp etc I feel bringing them in and outside can cause them too stress too much. So let’s see how we go. This evening I have moved them inside my shed so it’s stays the same rough temp as it’s due too rain heavy from 2am and don’t want too risk drowning the seeds out before they have even had a chance lol 28/04/20 update: so I have awoken this morning too the heavens falling so I’m really torn about bringing the autos back out right now I don’t want too fuck it up as right now is crucial so I have put them under a led light just too give them that little push start soon as they bust through the soil they going back outside 29/04/20 checked on them this morning just shy of 48 hours from potting and still nothing broken the soil.. starting too worry man hope I haven’t messed it up. 30/04/20 ayyyy what a good morning it is indeed 5 of 8 are coming up out the soil.. lunchtime update because I’m checking them like every hour🤣 6 out of 8 are up and out or just on the verge 01/05/20 not much more going on they definitely have grown some more as for my situation with outside weather due too get better but I have had the light on 24/7 now since they been inside so think mabye I should start cutting down how much light they are getting in a day so it’s not such a shock when they have too go all night outside. Also think we have lost one of the c4’s as the shell was stuck and I tried too help her out and she pulled out the soil😫 so I just kind of repotted it and hoping for the best but don’t think she going too pull through the rest looking find though luckily enough I got 2 c4’s on the go 02/05/20 yeah this morning I woke up too find that one dead and done for i had a feeling I had killed her slightly upset but not going too dwell on it.. on a positive note sun is out all day today and due too be lovely and warm here on out so they will probally stay outside now but will bring in at night as this morning cars were frozen so it’s still slightly too cold at night for sure... evening update we lost the west coast og also and I know why I lost them both my sprayer wasn’t working and like a idiot I watered them when they was undersoil still only lightly but the c4 bean and the wc og came to top as they wasn’t far enough in and they must have been done for from that moment can only be that as rest are sweet however I can’t believe it so I ph checked my water after giving them it too start and that because I was still waiting for my ph down too come and turns out my tap water is around 8 so I’m suprised any of them made it😮 but thankfully ph down has arrived and we are getting there 6 left but they are the chosen ones I guess you going too win some and loose some. Also tonight they about too deal with all night in the dark and then that’s how they are going too be from here on out nomore 24/7 light going too put them inside with led on still still a little later then sun down as I won’t be up at 5:30 when sun comes up... 05/05/20 so I have finally got a plan I’m sticking too and it’s working just a treat atm the weather is much nicer and sunnier now so the been bringing them out every morning leaving them
Out all day then around 7pm roughly been taking them inside the tent into darkness leave them till around 10/11pm then I been turning the led on and leaving them under her for the night then straight back outside soon as it hits about 7:30am i started with just A hour of darkness one night then 2 then next then 4 then before they stay out all night for first night they will get about 5 hours darkness inside as outside it’s gunna be around 6 hours and I don’t want them too be shocked by it as started them off with pretty much 24/7 lights however since giving them darkness they have started growing a lot better and smoother think 24 hours of constant light is just abit too much they need time too rest and what not, watering with small amount of vitalink soil grow literally 0.5 ml a litre I also have some root fast by another company which I
Have added a half measure in too help give her a start no signs of stress they seem too have loved the little feed so will be continuing the same measurements for about a week unless they start all a sudden booming up then I’ll up the feed just all trial and error and just having a bit of fun with it. 6 days out the soil now nearly onto week 2.... excited too say the least
Start of second week and it’s going all well been giving them 1l water over the 6 pots every other day so far looks like I’ll be re potting soon some have got some healthy root systems going on... the crystal meth however I did drop and she fell out the pot carefully put her back in so hoping it’s gunna be alright she is a little droppy compared too the rest though and growing much slower deffo stuned her growth but she is still growing so hopefully just be a couple days too get over it 8/05/20 so I repotted them
Today deffo feel like it was slightly too early but I have done it now next time when I do autos deffo sowing straight into there final pots I dunno why I even started with smaller pots bit silly really just upped my risk of messing some
Up 09/05/20 So they spent there first full night outside last night which would of been a slight shock as they been going in about 7pm into dark till about 11-11:30pm then led on all night till they come straight out too the morning light so was longest they been without light so far and they seem just fine so probally end up staying out from here on out.. 11/05/20 all is going well loving life going too look at start too low stress training one then I’m going too top one then mabye top and lst one then leave the last 3 too go naturally but not sure what I’m going too do yet
All is looking pretty good just watering with ph’d water between 6-6.5 but I have also given some vita link cal mag grow and silicone Max ran out of fulvic otherwise would of added that but the plants didn’t seem too like the feed I don’t think so laying off of it and back too water. Also I have 2 mutated leaves one on my cream cookies and one on my lsd also very strange.
17/05/20 so this morning I have stayed too lst all but one plant as she fairly small compared too the rest so going too let her grow and do her thing also topped one Aswell as starting some lst.. also light defoliation but not much.. I have also started at night banging them inside under leds as I want them too veg as big as possible so basically they are pretty much getting some kind of light for 24 hours just for abit while I train them want too give them max potential
Start of week 4 since changing too 24 hours light they been booming hopefully they veg a little piece longer🤞🤞 day 23 was a horrible morning too say the least come too pulling my plants outside and found my topped one had one of the tops snap what a stressful morning right before work trying too doctor her then come home from work too her all wilted and dying so game Over for that but not letting it get too me onwards and upwards
Day 24. Signs of flower on the untrained plant rest still seem too be vegging Propper windy so haven’t bought them out yet just waiting for the wind too settle abit hopefully still lovely and sunny and warm
So as of day 25 going with feeding unfortunately I need too order more fulvic for the feed I got cal mag but don’t think I need too use it anymore also have pk 13/14 for 2 weeks during peak flowering then some finale too use on its own for a week before flushing them with just water I’m Propper new too all of this But let’s give it ago lol
So day 28 all are showing signs of flowering some slightly more then others so now at night the bloom lights are on on the led and still the same outside as normal.. lsd-25 showing some real deep purple in the small bud that’s starting too form on the top, I must admit I’m excited now too say the least
So 4 out of 6 are in full flower the other 2 I believe are not far off so changing the it too flower now on here although the crystal meth started too flower about 23/24 days old and then the others were not far behind, have also switched my leds too bloom for them at night now. Some purple showing on the lsd-25 already all is good so far still a long way away yet..
Day 32 and I must say wow went in too go get them this morning too bring them outside and the smell they was kicking off was just beautiful have trained them up a little more today and taken off some leaves too open them
Up abit more
Day 35 end of week 5 and wow I must say some of these starting too stack up lovely and getting some nice frost Aswell, the smoothie and cream cookies only really just started too flower but they managed too grow too some beasts and I’m quite excited too see them starting too blow up
Start of week 6 weather is terrible last 2 days they have spent purely inside under a led light bought them outside too feed them back in again, other then the weather plants looking and smelling lovely going too get some growbag green houses for them too keep them
Dry if it rains
Day 37 final train On the cream cookies and the smoothie also some light defoliation too open them up abit
Day 38 removed all cages as they holding them selfs too where they were trained and the cages just getting in the way
Day 42 and I must say starting too notice the buds are getting fatter and are for sure nice dense and frosty as fu*k aha
Week 3 of flower where they have been inside due too bad weather have started too get areas of rust because I had no intake or outake fans just a fan inside so wasn’t constant fresh air but weather better now so aiming too keep them out now just don’t want too have bugs and stuff mess em up as the tomato plants in my garden have a fair few flys over them so i don’t want them coming too my plants
Day 44 soooo the crystal meth.. the c4.. the lsd-25 and the purple lemonade for sure don’t look too too far off I wouldn’t say so the plan now is too add vitalink pk 13/14 too the feed for a week then I’m going too stop all nutes on them at start of week 8 roughly then just give vitalink Finale for 5-7 days which will bring me
Too week 9 then I’m going too flush them for 10 days leave too dry out and then chop... as for the smoothie she a couple weeks behind and the cream cookies seems too not be doing a great great deal so she could be flowering for some time, but I don’t want too miss out giving the pk13/14 but too the other 4 before giving the finale and flushing but my worry is I’m cutting it close too start flushing around start of week 9 I think but I don’t really know so just going too see how things look may end up starting the finale abit sooner or just not using it or I’m not sure but for now them 4 will get pk13/14 Aswell for the next week of feeding
Not the greatest photos for day 50 as didn’t really have too much time for them today unfortunately but on the plus side after adding pk 13/14 too 4 of the plants feed they been swelling right up
Day 53 crystal meth- lsd - purple lemonade and c4 are all getting just vitalink finale on its own with water at a ph of about 5.8 as that’s what it pretty much goes too after adding the finale then After about 5 days or so at 4 ml per litre of water... I’m going too start flushing them 4 as for the other 2 still just feeding as normal
Start of week 9 and I’m flushing all the plants although I know the cream cookies is a good week or two behind but just easier too water them all the same as ideally I’m looking too chop them all at the same time
Day 62 I have been getting quick photos daily but not really had too much time too tend too them too much finally got a microscope thing and have found 4 of 6 have a fair few amber/red/brownish Trich’s The smoothie is starting too get some brown Trich’s but the cream cookies mainly clear and cloudy Trich’s
Day 64 missed a day as been so busy recently also have Barley been checking plants properly not gunna lie and come across a thripes infestation too the max on my crystal meth so pulled her right away and chopped her down lucky enough everything been so spaced out and the other plants don’t seem too be effected but I’m looking at chopping them all soon if I’m honest I don’t want too all of a sudden come across that again on another plant.. wet weight of it 150 grams so could be about a z Oz and half mabye also not the greatest photos for today can’t lie
Easy too grow although due too loads of factors think I have lost potency and she was smelling a lot better last week before the thripe infestation but time will tell how she smokes
So she grew just fine was the only one I never trained out just let her do her thing think I may have messed up the end by all the outside inside and all sorts they dealt with some
Stress but time will tell how it all went.. promising
Lovely strain too grow had too chop early due too thripes real bad and then unfortunately this one had got mould drying due too humidity problems but luckily the rest were out the room by then
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 !!! 🌱☘️🌴🍀🌿🌳
@Fast_Buds, much appreciated for the message, this will be my third ever grow second outside, 2018 I did an outdoor with bag seeds and just tap water. I kind of winged it lol but luckily they was all fem and I actually ended up with fairly decent buds although due too nature they didn’t start too flower till about September and I had too chop early due too mould. Have a mate who has run your seeds a couple of times and I have been impressed with the flowers every time so that’s why I have chosen too order with yourselves for my first auto flower grow. Hopefully the weather turns back around and I can get them back out into the garden where they belong, again much appreciate the little message 🤙 take care 👊🏻💚
@@54degreesnorth, yo my man so when there were seedlings I used some John innes seedling #1
Then about day 10 I repotted then too pots with John innes #3 which is more for flowering vegtables amongst other things, only downfall is it drys up so quickly having too water every day pretty much
Congratulations on the new baby. She looks good at first. Choose a good variety. For a treat. Keep doing what you are doing and ask the growing ganja gods to protect your women until the growth is over.
I see you threw them outdoors early - I did the same. I see some light green in the new nodes and some light burn on the single point leaf.
Have you noticed any stress from direct sun early on?
