Now we are in week 8. Plants stopped growing. I will let them grow two more weeks and then I will at least harvest two of them. Depending on the trichomes I will keep the other two for 4-5 weeks more, because I will be away ... traveling lets hope that the sun is coming out again and that the buds get bigger and bigger in the last two weeks. BTW I stopped giving any type of nutrients, just water.

Welcome to my Fast Buds sponsored shootout and living organic soil v coco side by side. I also plan to use this grow to my full advantage regarding a few age old nagging questions about methods. I have had a keen interest in L.O.S ( supersoil) since reading a few threads a while back on how amazing and productive it can be. After too much research and procrastinating I had to give it a go. I have been a decades coco/nft grower and recently threw my hat in the rdwc ring too. I have avoided soil due to the overwatering worry ( heavy handed chimp brain !) and the best potting soil/feeds. Catching up on the advances in indoor soil gardening and organics led me too subcools supersoil recipes to name a few but being a town dweller with farms everywhere around me still drew blanks on a lot of the ingredients needed and where the hell I could even begin to get them from. Thankfully , commercial savvy has now made buying it in ready to use and with a full range of beneficial bacteria ect available in amendments from a grow shop here in the uk. ecothrive have realised the potential for us to dive into this medium with all the mixing , measuring and resourcing. I bit the bullet and £150 later I now have 4 x37Litre pots that will be used for as long as I want to feed the soil for without EVER needing nutrients again potentially. The coco has also had charge mixed in to encourage the bennies to colonize there too. I will be using the shogun nutes that I know do the business with coco to compare with for yield , growth and taste. I have 3 seeds each of 4 Fast Buds Strains to use as a control for the grow and am journaling each strain in their own diaries. This statement will be used to start each one as the information is identical at this point but following this I will do them individually. I am now starting their second week since opening the seed packets , straight into soaked and shook root riot cubes and into the heated propagator. They had all showed their heads by end of day 3 and a couple needed helmet surgery to open up without being hindered . I have has them in the prop for a few days but they needed to get settled as they were popping roots out all over the cubes. They have now been in their final pots for 2 days complete and starting their 3rd today at day 8 since planting in cubes. I am impressed with the speed and success of these girls already (12 of 13 germinated) . Well done fast buds. So here we go folks , any comments , ideas ,questions , advice are always welcome and I hope we can have some fun experimenting with defol v non defol , topping v fimming v bending and any other curiosities along the way. I plan on using a quadline for them all to keep a control for the comparisons too. Be green folks Welcome aboard and a huge thank you to Fast Buds for the opportunity to try autos.

Loving how these girls are growing Fastbuds mystery #1 finally catching up, and may possibly in the end being a better producer than the RQS plant, which is surprising to me because of how badly I stunted this plant. Got me curious how good this plant could’ve been

All I can say is this girl pretty much took care of herself. Had no real issues till the end when she started foxtailing. I did the best I could to try and lower the temps but it was hot here for a couple weeks. I had read that PE likes it a bit cooler so will definitely grow this girl again but will probably wait until winter where I can control the temps a bit easier. All in all she still provided 345 grams of pretty solid buds. A little bit of fluffy stuff but most were pretty solid.

Week 14 Day 92 | 21/07/2022: I think these girls are ready! But I will still wait until the end of the week to cut them down together with the other two. Although I am thinking of cutting down one of two stems to start drying some early.. I'll see Day 93 | 22/07/2022: No time today Day 94 | 23/07/2022: Watered the girls today with just 1.5L of water. The temperatures have dropped thankfully so it's not too hot for them now. I've also decided to cut down one stem from Jackie to start drying it early. Since we're gonna be moving I wanted a little bit to dry beforehand. Day 95 | 24/07/2022: The girls definitely look like they need to be harvested right now. Just a few days left! Day 96 | 25/07/2022: The leaves have gone purple! I think that's because they are way over-ripe ;D Although I must say the buds are more on the smaller side... Also I decided not to water them anymore so they can dry up a bit before harvest in 3 days! Day 97 | 26/07/2022: Day 98 | 27/07/2022: Day 99 | 28/07/2022: Today was the big day! (for the girls and for myself) So the only thing I did was tidied up the foliage by removing all the fan leaves, cutting the girls at the base and handing them in the tent. I find that the remaining leaves really help keep the moisture at a higher level and they tend to smell less like hay. I will be leaving the girls to dry for about 10 days, and then I always put them into glass jars to cure! I would have ideally harvested these girls earlier but maybe this will make it a super strong smoke. Can't wait to smoke (vape) them!

After my first successful grow, I'm starting another one with some fine seeds from RQS. Let's do this! 20.12. - I've planted the germinated seeds into the soil. I hope they'll all sprout 🌱 22.12. - 2x Apple Fritter and 1x Creamatic sprouted 🌱 23.12. - 1x Creamatic sprouted 24.12. - Another Creamatic sprouted, however one Fritter is dead. ⚰️ Replacing with one Green Gelato 27.12. - Today I've planted the Green Gelato seed into soil. Other are looking really good 😊 28.12. - Green Gelato sprouted 🌱

Que pasa familia, vamos con la segunda semana de crecimiento de estas Gorilla cookies Auto de FastBuds. Tiene muy buenas reseñas y pues me animé a colocar 4 plantas. Han sido plantadas directamente en macetas de 7 litros y salieron las 4, 100% de éxito en el ratio. La tierra que utilizamos que está en la publicación anterior es plagron all mix, aparte alimentamos nuestras plantas con Agrobeta. El tetra 9 lo apliqué vía foliar. Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2, regando cada 24 horas e intentando mantener la humedad un poco alta al principio. La temperatura está entorno al 22/24 grados y la humedad anda sobre el 60%. De uno de los ejemplares la cague un poco, como siempre que no falte, al quitar la piel de la cáscara de la semilla? Pues arranque los cotiledones sin querer, pero no pasó nada salió adelante y todo perfecto.

(currently.lights off in video and picture of this week) I really couldnt help myself. After checking up online and researching a few auto grows, i decided to heavily defoliate, clean legs and pinch off larf, cleaned up middle canopy also. I partially did this because i kinda of would like the height too stunt plus have buds that wont just be thrown in the bubble wash. I was forced also to pull down the main stem because of the height of my veg tent. The pin down has been recently taken off, but will be applied of needed again! Im also guessing the leaves have heavily clawed from the stress, after the defol, i wreckon i shouldnt have watered so hard... My bad

This lady is Frosty sticky icky Orange terpenessssssssss don't lie Juyce nuggy

Tough week lol after some trial and error due to germinating in paper towel and placing directly into 3 gal pot killed the first seed of seeds I believe due to under watering :( Tried germinating in paper towel this time, THEN transferred to peat pellet once root came out about 1/2 inch. Misted top and placed in a tray with a humidity dome and a heating mat, keeping temp around 81. Waiting til 2-3 leaves come up so I can transfer. Anyone know if I should be adding light yet? Or no? Thanks everyone!! If it wasn’t for ur advice I would no be here lol. 🌱🌱🌱 til next week 🙏🏼

During week 4 (=flowering week 2) the 18 CANNALOPE HAZE plants from DNA-GENETICS grew like hell and started to develop their first white hairs (=female pistils of the plant). The speed in which the little white crowns appear is astounding to me, I LOVE IT! The lamps are now hung at the producer recommended distance of 22 cm (=LUMATEK) and 45 cm (=SANlight) and both run at 100% power (=no more dimming for now!). The difference between the left side (=Lumatek) and right side (=SANlight) can be seen clearly in the videos. The plants on the right under the Q6W-Gen. 2 LED-Lamps from SANlight have a darker, healthier green color and have produced VISIBLY MORE FLOWERS then the plants on the left side under the Lumatek PRO 600W. Lets see how this goes further next week...😎

Battling leaf-hoppers with a few of my G.G's but all 5 of the Critical Purple were mostly spared....I treated all plants with insecticidal soap anyway to be safe

Hello, my wonderful green-thumbed friends! Welcome to the Week 5 veg report for our fabulous P.C.R.s. This week has been all about new beginnings and meticulous care, as we continue to nurture these beauties towards their full potential. Let’s dive in! New Home, Sweet Home This week, our P.C.R.s made the big move to their new 3x3 tent, and boy, do they love it! Under the bright and consistent light of the ViparSpectra P2000, these plants are set to thrive. The P2000 is a game-changer, offering a full spectrum that mimics natural sunlight, ensuring our plants get the best light for every stage of their growth. It’s like bringing a slice of the sun indoors! Leaf Love and Clones We also took some leaves and cuts this week to encourage bushier growth and to propagate new plants. Each cut was carefully treated with Clonex Gel, a rooting hormone that gives our clones the best start. Think of it as a nutrient-packed smoothie for our cuttings, providing all they need to develop strong, healthy roots. To keep our new clones happy and hydrated, we used Clonex Mist, which is like a gentle rain shower, supplying essential nutrients and promoting robust root development. It’s all about giving them the TLC they need to become the next generation of thriving plants. TLC and Maintenance With the move, I made sure to maintain the optimal environment inside the tent. Our TDS is holding steady at 410, with a pH of 5.8 and a temperature of 21°C for watering. These parameters are crucial for nutrient uptake and overall plant health, ensuring our P.C.R.s have everything they need to flourish. Why We Do What We Do Understanding the importance of each step is key. The ViparSpectra P2000 not only ensures our plants receive the perfect light spectrum but also helps in energy efficiency, which is great for our environment and our energy bills! The Clonex Gel and Spray ensure that our clones have the best possible start, reducing transplant shock and speeding up root development. Keeping our grow space clean and organized also helps in preventing pests and diseases, creating a safe and healthy environment for our plants to thrive. It’s all about setting the stage for success and letting nature do the rest. In Conclusion Week 5 has been all about setting up our P.C.R.s for success. From the new tent setup to taking care of clones, every step has been filled with excitement and careful planning. The journey is just as important as the destination, and I’m thrilled to see these plants grow and flourish.
