So ends what was an extremely fast auto run. One of the fastest plants we’ve seen from seed. She didn’t disappoint at all and Exotic is grade “A” in my book👍👌🤟😎. Taste & Smell: 🍭🍭🍭🍭 Effects: 🍭🍭🍭🍭 This girl is an absolute terp. Monster. Stickier than GG and a very complex scent profile for a kush strain. Not really earthy, more piney and citrusy. She’s already demonstrating this only a few days post chop. Can’t wait to see what she cures out to. It’ll be a real treat. I’d recommend anyone growing this to consider pressing it for rosin. Not only would the terps be amazing, the yield will be ridiculous👍. As far as effects go - definitely a relaxing kush. Further testing required but she ticks all the boxes on what we’re looking for in an indica. Pretty strong body buzz with an added touch of cerebral dumbness😎👍.

Reviews. Nutrient
Botanicare remains a reliable staple for a number of different base nutes, and additives across all mediums. Loved em since day one👍. The karma is a kick in but the calmag is always on hand when needed.
This stuff is excellent. Reliable, stable and last forever. You can’t get much better for an all-around base nute program and you won’t require additives which makes the Maxi series all that much more easy and economical/practical to use.
Reviews. Lamp
If ur gonna kick out this kinda weight, then the lamps obviously had something to do with it. I’m very happy with my 2 spiderfarmers. Acceptable performance in flower but where these really shine is during veg. Fantastic growth rates and of course, corner to corner coverage.

Medium: The whole point and purpose of the weekly diatribes was to increase awareness about the simplicity and benefits of growing in DWC. This plant was grown in a 5 gallon tub which might as well have been a 2 gallon after accounting for net pot distances and air gaps. Still, she didn’t suffer at all and turned out a very impressive yield. I don’t hold to the maxim that soil growing brings out the best taste, smell etc. Most of this I boil down to good genetics. Some of the best tasting and highest quality plants we’ve grown have come from hydroponic grow methods. DWCs benefits are obvious. The main drawbacks are really a lack of versatility next to other grow methods. Scrogging requires some significant imagination if in a tent or small space and unless you’re running a central res., swapping out tubs and buckets can be a pain in the ass. Next cycle we’re running a Dutch bucket system instead. The hope is that we can combine all the best parts of hydro grow methods without the things that make each one a chore. No hand traditional hand watering, versatility and pot portability unlike dwc, the ability to scrog if needed, no messy soil or coco and low, low, low maintenance ie. minimal tip offs and changes. Well see how it shakes out in short order.🤟 Method 🎚️🎚️🎚️ Nothing much to this one. Essentially how we run most of our autos. The benefit of DWC allows us to FIM our autos super early in veg. When they blow back out and the fim works.... whoa 😳! It’s a sight to behold. It took really well on this one and the branching outwards was intense. Multiple 1/2oz. Colas was the result here and yet the plant didn’t get more than 12” in height. Crazy to see. This strain is perfect for small space growers. Yield/Harvest🌴🌴🌴🌴 🌴 And now the real review. Try as I do, to focus on all the other benefits of each grow system, the one great equalizer for me, will always be yield. It’s the single most obvious indicator of a successful grow and in this case - yeah, we crushed it💪. This girl weighed in at 6.85oz. On a 12” plant the size of a beachball... that’s insane. I had to weigh everything twice because I simply couldn’t believe it was that much. The buds got almost over-dried through 8 days in our zero humidity basement too😬. The bigger buds were weighed with stems intact because we wanted them whole. This isn’t typical for us but even if the stems weighed say, an oz. of that total, the plant still kicked out 6 ounces and that’s just crazy 😳😎. Much of this is attributed to density here - these buds are hard as rocks, covered in frost and the size of my fist👌. Again, a testament to Exotics quality genetics👍👍. Full calcs. as follows: Total sq./ft = 3sq.ft. = 0.28m2 192g = 6.85oz. Light coverage by power: 66w/sq.ft. Avg. estimated yield: 475g/m2 Actual Yield: 192g x ~3.6 = 691.2g/m2. End of the day, we were able to push out almost 8oz. more per meter of space than the expected average on this plant. Again, just great genetics for a grow with absolutely no issues👌. Great way to end the 2020 winter season. Gonna squeeze in a 4 plant auto run that’ll likely leak into the spring season so should have that up in short order. Hope everyone’s stay’n safe and sane. Peace!👊 Background From Exotic Seeds, Herz OG is a 4th gen. Cross of GG4 and black lemon autos, crossed again with a photo Herz OG mother. Supposedly piney, honey and woody tones with a calm relaxing effect. Just what the lady of the house ordered. She’ll be straight DWC like the rest. 2 weeks on the drip line and depending on how they all do, this may be the girl that stays under the Spider Farmers for the duration. My first go with Exotic so no idea what we’re in for. Let’s hope she’s a beast🤞. I’ve included a weekly tip forum for those new to the game that have an interest in trying out water based hydroponics. It’s vetted, reliable info that will hopefully help you avoid weeks of lost time and failed attempts. Comments, questions and discussion are always welcome👍.

When u do a res change, do u just take the girls out of the water, how long can they b out of water. And what do u clean the res with? Ur grows r so informative, thanks for that.
TheBudWhisperer
TheBudWhisperercommented4 years ago
@gogreengrow, I have a full replacement res. to swap with so the roots don’t spend a whole lotta time out of the water. A few minutes wouldn’t hurt them in the long run but it’s usually a matter of seconds when I change out. As far as cleaning is concerned, that’s pretty basic. I usually scrub everything down with an H2O2 and water solution when it’s light. Or Diluted clr if it’s pretty gross. I always start a run with a fully sanitized res. Using Rubbing alcohol and water. Same goes for the hoses , air stones and pumps.👍

That is an excellent diary and brilliant review of the strain. thank you. inhave just germinated 1 and now I have read this , I am so stoked I chose it. I do love Fast buds autos in general and seeing their Bluedreamatic pumping huge colas out in one I did , I don't doubt their genetics ever. I hope this diary and review rwcieves the right attention from Fb and grow diaries too. A great example of how us lazy sods need to up our game. lol

Ganjagrandaddycommented4 years ago
@TheBudWhisperer,Have to agree there. sadly there are so many grows i want to butt in with comments in for their poor growing and results. seeing simple things holding them back is a killer but hard to assume they want help too. See so many seeds never reach their potential this way here. wish we had a forum type room or chat function. the telegram one goes way too quick and threads melt into a confusion of replies to different comments lol. Even typing too much here feels a bit of an intrusions growers diaries.. We need a public relations drive to invite comments and encourage chat this way . The weekly updates seems to affect how often folks comment and visit. Thanks for the response

@TheBudWhisperer,I know the herz og is an Exotic seed. I have one growing too , I meant fb being a good example of similar yields and sizes to photoperiods but miss quoted the Fb for Exotic.lol It is an excellent example of a diary though and for someone going the same route and strain, ideal for their reason of using sites like this one. New growers and experienced benefit from a detailed grow like this. Thanks bud

Hi there, in your first picture of week 9, I saw a tall plant with clawing leaves. I have ran into similar issue with my plants. Do you know what might be the reason? Nitrogen overdosed?
TheBudWhisperer
TheBudWhisperercommented4 years ago
@agramperwatt, nm - I see you don’t have a diary up. It’s hard to say but in late flower you will often see some signs of leaf damage as the plant reaches maturity. Without specific grow info I’d be firing from the hip to diagnose your issue.
TheBudWhisperer
TheBudWhisperercommented4 years ago
@agramperwatt, we’ll this plant was a shorty - only about a foot tall. As far as the leaves are concerned - we’re in late flower here so not much time left and the plant has begun to fade as it reaches the end of its light cycle. It’s on a 20/4 sched. Too so probably had enough. Although I wouldn’t say there’s any light burn or nute lockout on this one. More just the plant showing signs of harvest readiness. I’ll take a look at yours when I got a chance👍

Great grow and diary! 👍👍❄️🌻🔛🔥. Thanks for sharing. Checking out diaries of Herz OG autos and found your DWC run🤓. I'm soaking 2 of these beans for my last DWC run till the fall. I'll be trying fiming for the first time after seeing your success. It was also helpful to get a baseline on TDS, with this being my 2nd go at DWC. Enjoy your harvest 😎✌️.
TheBudWhisperer
TheBudWhisperercommented4 years ago
@DeaneR, thanks for the kinds words bud! Lol - don’t put any stock into the tds figure though! Think it was left at 420 because I didn’t bother to check it the whole grow😂. This was a bit of test run to see how long I could take a res. without a swap out. That said, if ur measuring TDS, I would say not to worry about it early on. It should be pretty low when in early stages as the plants won’t need much nutes at all. In full veg. And flower you should be just fine between about 600-1200ppms. I know - huge range but, my own experience suggests that this isn’t a major concern as long as your nute mix is appropriate for the growth stage and the res. is clean and aerated. Let me know once u get it all on the go and I’ll follow along. If u have any questions or issues feel free to reach out - I’ve definitely learned a few lessons (and killed a few plants to learn them)👍😎👊

I think this may be my favourite auto run I have seen on grow diaries👍 Interesting info that the fim in dwc works so much better on a auto than in soil due to the vigorous growth it allows. Yield in that time span from a plant that small is insanely good too. Top work man👊
TheBudWhisperer
TheBudWhisperercommented4 years ago
@Esoteric_growing, really appreciate that kind of feed back and thank you🙏. While I can't own the flowering time (plant really had everything to do with that lol), fiming autos is a go-to lately. The results are just so much better when you have the right conditions for it. I do however miss seeing the natural result of a full grown auto. Then again... ya can't make an omelet without cracking a few eggs!!!😉

Hi my friend. There was a problem with my plant, and you commented. Thank you very, very much. I am grateful for your help. yes, the problem was calcium magnesium deficiency. the plant survived the stress and recovered. I will publish the new week. and I think you should take a look. best regards my friend.
