Unfortunately, only 3/5 seeds germinated. I had to pop one bucket off the end to accommodate only three plants. :(
The three that spouted show signs of potential as their root systems grew fairly fast. Looking forward to see their growth and color changes in bloom.
They will receive a FIM around week 2-3. LST is TBD.
Update:
Made this purchase through Exotic Seed Club. These were supposed to be FastBuds Purple Lemonade, but we did not get what we purchased. The packaging was not correct as well but I was told this is FastBuds Purple Lemonade. There was no way to tell until flower. Now the plants are in flower, there is literally no color change. I then reached out to Fastbuds and they are great and took care of us. Thank you fastbuds!
Good growth so far. More than doubled from last week. This week these will receive a FIM. There will be no LST. Defoliation TBD. Added a second SP 250.
Looking forward to next week.
Explosive growth for the week -- 12 inch grow from last week. These auto's are taking their time to transition which means this flowering phase will be long and fruitful. They are consuming somewhere around 1.5 - 2 gal of nutrients each day for 3 plants!
Explosive growth compared to last week. The root system for each plant consumes almost the entire 5 gal bucket. The roots are healthy across all three plants.
The last plant capped out for vertical growth. Now all three can begin to bud. Two of the three plants are budding well -- very dense buds so far. All plants smell of citrus and berries. The only bummer thus far is no color change. I hope in the next week or so the color flourishes well.

Good bud growth so far. One plant will be harvested tomorrow (9/27/20). It smells like a mixture of berries/grape and fruity pebbles the cereal. Overall, no signs of deficiency or burns as all plants have a healthy vibrant green color. Their root systems have consumed most of the space in the 5gal buckets. The root systems are healthy as well. Lastly, I didn't expect the autoflower plants to grow so large. Some of the colas began slumping over too heavily. I had to tie the plants up together. Kind of sloppy but it keeps the plants upright and in the light.
Update. Checked each plants today. Flush is under way. < 1 week the harvesting will begin.
My 2 cents: Overall, the buds are not that impressive and there was never a color change. In addition, buds are not nearly as frosty as previous grows. Not disappointed, but not happy either. 4/10 for the grow. 2/10 for the yield as I am not expecting much from the 3 plants under two Mars SP 250 lights. If I am lucky, MAYBE 400g dry for the total weight.
Since I don't know the exact strains I have nothing to compare my results to. One of the three plants smells good, but I expected a little more weight and quality bud. In addition, I didn't expect a week 3 transition period. I was hoping for the end of week 4 or the beginning of week 5 for the transition to occur. The plants weren't able to mature quick enough to support the end weight. Branches ended up bending, which forced me to support each plant.
The median weight of this harvest (wet) is 4.136 lbs aka 66.176 oz. Total wet weight is 12.41 lbs aka 198.56 oz.
Plant 1 = 1.890 kg -> 4.166737 lbs -> 66.667792 oz
Plant 2 = 1.905 kg -> 4.1998061 lbs -> 67.1968976 oz
Plant 3 = 1.835 kg -> 4.0454825 lbs -> 64.72772 oz
