End of week 6 and things are really ramping up now! First couple pics on this week where taken 4 days after the middle of week 5 pics on the previous week and there is a huge difference and I also got in just before the HPS came on to snap these pics and video so you can see them much better then under my HPS pics taken on day 40 into flowering also in this weeks diary. These girls are not messing around, giant buds everywhere and no signs of them slowing down anytime soon...lol we might be looking at more then 8-9 weeks of flowering I’m thinking at this point. Still got 1 ugly plant eating her leaves but I’m thinking now it’s just my lower nutrient doses making this happen. It’s a really slow progression so far, but I’m loosing a lot of guard leaves up top on the one, but she is still got the biggest buds....hmmmm just gonna let her go and see what happens. So far so good! Lol Cheers 💨

Had an issue this week with a fsn getting unplugged and the tent was extremely hot for several hours. Some of the top buds even got cooked. I took off thendesd material at the top and I'm hoping for a speedy recovery.

So far so good. Going into the final week of VEG. This week I have been busy with lollipopping the bottom some more and kept tucking multiple times a day to try to get that net to be full. I'll give it maybe 5 more days before flipping to flower. One of the plants was a bit too dark green IMO, so decided to flush out that pot to prevent EC running too high an risking nutrient burn. She seems to have been recovered from that.

Day 38 since starting germination: Everything is looking healthy and happy. I’ve FIMed the main and continued leaf tucking & LST. Upped the amount of Diamond nectar from 1ml/gal to 2ml/gal. Keeping the lights on 20/4 has kept the average low temp a degree higher at 66. I also changed the positioning of the lights. Now the Mars Hydro tsl2000 is providing ~500-550 ppfd across the canopy. At this point the plants in the RDWC loop have different nutrient needs so when I did my water change I also changed the orientation of my buckets. I removed the bucket with the Northern Lights photo period from the loop so it could be connected to its own reservoir and be fed a veg nutrient solution while the Sour D auto gets its bloom nutrients.

It's about week 6 I guess, I don't know. Pheno 1: 2 short ones with great smelling medium sized buds. Fast Pheno 2: looks like a nice producer, very frosty, nice growth, keeping an eye on this one. Slowest of the bunch but not a slow plant by any means Pheno 3: woah, THC bomb! The frostiest plant in the house. Also seems like a fast one Great smells Quite excited for these awesome plants from Zambeza! Catch you before harvest time for some nicer pictures

Starting week 10 now. Ran into some more underwater issues as well as I think I did not supply enough dry nutes in the beginning to pot since had some slight deficiencies showing before underwatering. Getting close to harvest so just gonna ride it out. Also in process of changing the ventilation system so have had a couple of high temp issues over 80f. Under control for now till I get the setup finished and noted to add more fertilizer to next grow. Even with my errors the girls are sticky and smelling good.

8.11.25 Day 105 Day 56 since 12/12 Last night I took off all the fan leave and chopped her before light on today. She smells amazing, sweet and fruity. The entire plant weights 1.25 kg. We will see how much dry weight I get.

Another strong week of stretch, simply amazing growth with an funky citrus soda pop smell. Amazing so far! Unfortunately next week she will have to go to 12/12 because of other plants in the tent, I never really had good autos on 12/12 but let's try why not Also she is showing deficiencies on the bottom, or at least she is taking nutrients from bottom leaves, which is fine for now, I'll raise some nutrients.

Le FF di @Fast_Buds sono velocissime!!! In una settimana sono cresciute molto più delle normali Autofiorenti, ieri ho effettuato il travaso finale nei vasi in tessuto da 11L con tutta la miscela Dogma Super Soil e da ora in avanti only water 💦 vediamo come si sviluppano prossimamente! Le macchie bianche sulle foglie sono macchie di Zeolite Pure 10 micrometri sempre di Dogma Organics!

Todo sigue bien excepto que siguen apareciendo esos bichitos enanos blancos como puntos o bolitas enanas en las hojas mas bajas y suelen estar en las mas amarillas pero intento limpiarla y fumigarla pa mantenerlo a raya

UPDATE - sat 6th March Doing good for first week. The change of light made all the difference. One is a hempy that I am going to add some worm castings and I’m already adding loads of microbes so it should buffer the ph for me. UPDATE - Monday I ordered some worm castings so I can mix it with my coco and perlite, as well as a few other goodies so I can treat a hempy more like a soil grow but get the benefits of the passive hydro system. I’ll probably use around 10%. I’m still waiting for my fan and my microbial product that is made by the same people as charge. It looks great. Loads of ph buffering microbes to munch on the vermicompost and enable me to get away without spending 60-70 on a ph meter.

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.
