Has anyone grown Fast bud ?

[Ciscosfa]

Hey there peeps i have just started a micro/cabinet grow with these fast bud from a Spanish company. Well i germed 2 beans of Sweet Afghani Delight by mistake and they sprouted , then germed 3 FB and they are all germed in pots i have put them on a 20/4 two weeks in so far .

Im using a 125w CFL (i know not the best) prob gonna upgrade to 200w/250w.

So has anyone grew this variety out ?

Thanks peeps and its good to be part of a great community here !

Regards Cisco

Theres a link to my outdoor fast bud grow ..in my sig if you want a peak
heres a pic of the fast bud chopped last week

 

[Ciscosfa]

Nice one RH thanks for that i jus checked your thread out !

 

[Ciscosfa]

Ok chaps i seem to have burnt one o the FBs what do you do with burnt bits ? just leave them on or take off the burnt bits ?

Total newb question i know !! lol

 

[lowrydergrower]

wow very nice rh thanks for the pics bud.

 

[rocket high]

cool guys ...
The only thing about these fast buds is they aren't very stable so out of 5 plants 2 were twins the other 3 were all different pheno's ...so theres no uniformity to them yet but give them a couple of years to stabilize them and we will have a smashing strain.
but the twins were amazing ,short and fat and covered in trich's ,they were defo the winners out of the 5 fast buds
oh and no hermy's at all which is a good bonus for being feminized seed

Ok chaps i seem to have burnt one o the FBs what do you do with burnt bits ? just leave them on or take off the burnt bits ?

Total newb question i know !! lol

i would cut it off ciscosfa ..this happened to me before and if you leave it just gets moldy when in flower so chop it off and spit on your finger and spread it on the wound this helps it heal and to stop air getting in ..hope this helps ya

 

[Ciscosfa]

[Ciscosfa]

Oh and the square pot things you used where can you get them from , i have seen some on growwell.co.uk but not sure of sizes etc ?

i would put them strait into 14l builders buckets when they have grown out of the small brown one's ... they need the root space. i made the mistake of putting them in those square 6 litre atami bato buckets and they got root bound so i would use bigger containers to make sure you give the plant the best start when they start to flower.


heres a pic of one of mine they look identical (five fast buds are on the right )

heres a pic of the big devils in the builders bucket this is what i should have done with the fast buds ...but we all make mistakes huh...

if this dosent make sense its bcoz im stoned on fast bud ... i love it ...so will you am sure
