15/12 - 4 Seeds, 1 overachiever, 2 good girls & 1 runt. Leaving the runt for another day in the towel, see how she is tomorrow. 17/12 - The big girl has broken ground already. The runt took a little longer to get her tap root out, I've ended up planting her straight into a 5 Gallon pot. I didn't want to but it's the only pot available to me atm. We'll see how she goes compared to her 3 sisters. I'm not expecting much. 18/12 - The hardware shop in my village is open for the weekend, Bought out all their stock of flower pots. I have transplanted the runt from the 5G down to the smaller pot. This may prove to be a bad move but hey ho, lets go. You live & learn 😁. I expect it'll take her a little while to break ground as I have probably confused the heck outta her. 19/12 - Nevermind. she broke ground overnight!

19/12 - 4 Happy seedlings! Currently sharing a tent with some plants in late flowering so they're on a 12/12 light schedule temporarily. 22/12 - Little change, not touched them since I planted the seeds. 24/12 - Pots and medium v light today so they got a thorough watering. #2 was getting very lanky, leaning over more than I was comfortable with. I've added an extra inch of soil to her pot and moved her directly under the light for more par. All in all though these seedlings a looking really strong. They are the largest seedlings I've grown yet (4th Grow). These Fastbuds42 genetics are looking promising.

24/12 - 31/12/20 - Left them alone for a week. Watered yesterday in anticipation of transplanting. 1/1 - Transplanted into 12L (3G) pots. Went well. Watered thoroughly with RootStim. I did the same in my other Zkittles diary and it isn't going too well. Hopefully, these girls do better. 2/1 - The girls have continued to work on new growth overnight, so I guess the transplant went well. I've decided to get a bit experimental with these girls. I FIMed #1 & #2, will leave #3 & #4 to lower stress techniques. Bumped the temp up by .5 to 26.5c. Will probably feed nutes tomorrow and bump up the light intensity soon. 3/1 - Looking good. I watered each pot with 200ml of 1ml/L of Grow nutes & bumped up the light to 75% power. I'm concerned that this is too much water so I will try to be hands-off over the next week to see how they respond. I'm not sure if they need the nutes but I'm just trying not to make the same mistakes I made with my Zkittles grow.

11/1 - I'm loving the size of these girls! Looking really healthy. There is a line of pest damage on NL#4 but I can find no evidence of pests. 🤷‍♀️ Zip busted on my old (free) tent so there in a happy new 240x120x200! They've had no water since I gave them 1ml/l of grow nutes on 3/3 and are now nice and dry. Topped them up with 2ml/l, hopefully, no nute burn. FIM'd NL#1 & NL#2 again. 16/1 - Accidently broke a stem on NL#1. I decided to follow through on it by continuing to experiment. Tied down her branches to let her focus on her two new tops.
