Fatso GMO F1 Auto
Growing it
Easy
Resistance
Strong
10 plus 2.... This one is a MONSTER!!!!! I can not imagine how HUGE this would be in a large grow. Probably 3.5 or 4 oz dry from a one gallon pot. Very very very nice.

Garlic Muffin F1 Auto
Growing it
Easy
Resistance
Strong
10 plus 1. ALL Seedsman F1's have been the strongest easiest to prune and feed and LST plants.. Garlic is taller and thinner than Cookie Apple. Huge producer in small container. I got about 2.5 oz total dry. I have 2 more going and If I could afford it I would get more of these on the next BOGO.

Cookie Apple OG F1 Auto
Growing it
Easy
Resistance
Strong
10 plus 1. ALL Seedsman F1's have been the strongest easiest to prune and feed and LST. If you do nothing they are still just fine. Cookie Apple when topped above the 3rd node remains very short and the colas are HUGE. I got about 1oz dry per cola so about 3.5 dry oz from a 1 gallon pot. This one is PERFECT for small grows and you still get great harvest.

Perfect size for me, the new ones with the nylon pole connectors is way easier to put together and feels more solid.

The easiest thing I have ever used. 4 grams balances my water to 6.8ish so no more pH Down needed. I add cal/mag twice during veg. 1

It really works, but in very very small doses or it will burn the plants. I will use 0.8ml max per gallon especially with my small one gallon pots. Adding this in small doses over time makes a difference and I can see the resin forming the morning after I use it. I killed lots of plants over using this stuff, very powerful.

Strawberry Gorilla Auto

She is so strong, I smoked some right off the tree and was impressed. Fast Buds always has great plants. I started getting the Mix Packs because it will ALWAYS be the best. She responds well to training and topping. She doesnt stress when I take a bud or a partial harvest, just perfect!

Pink Kush CBD-30:1 Auto
Growing it
Hard
Resistance
Strong
I love this CBD, I will always grow it. It needs extra care during veg. I found using Silica too early made the branches too brittle to train. She is beautiful dark purple bright white & bright orange pistils . Complex and strong smell of diesel. It's nice to add so everything else isn't so strong.

NYC Sour D Automatic
Growing it
Hard
Resistance
Strong
She was TALLLL!!! I topped her twice and she was not slowed down by it. I didn't veg with any extra nutrients so she could have been bigger. Very difficult for my small micro space grows. BUT... The smoke is very strong, the buds are tight and dense very colorful and the Sour and the D is so strong!!! A very difficult to grow. makes some Banda head buds instead of the other ones. I will be doing one more with Maxi-GROW by Gen. Hydroponics or whatever the name is now and keeping the light closer to the plant to prevent her from being too tall for my space, and shadowing other plants in the then. 27 x 27 x 60.

Dark Devil Auto®
Growing it
Normal
Resistance
Strong
SHE SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE & LEATHER how is this possible???!!!!!!! Perfect for the Halloween grow. Beautiful plant and very strong responds well to topping and training. I didn't give her the right nutrients during veg and she still came out great. I probably got a little less than an oz. dry. I have been taking little buds and sampling them along the way. I am working on a very efficient and quick turnaround time for perpetual garden system with 4 colas, which I just cut and place in large jars so no real trimming either. She is great for that. The seeds were about 4 years old and were still strong. Growing her again for next year Halloween grow.

She started growing pollen sacks I saw nanners in time. She was down to her last cola. I got .25 grams from the last cola. So not a lot but not bad for a first time trying a 1 gallon grow.

GOAT'lato Automatic

Resistance

GOAT not flowering, not wasting another month on this, not starting a new tent for 1 small plant. GOAT is dead to me. NYC will be moved to another grow.. diary abandoned. GOAT was a total failure, I had to throw it in the trash. not going to risk wasting 3 months on a 12/12 grow that will probably stress and hermi if I do.... total waste, got a bad seed.
