Fast Buds Fast Buds LSD-25 first grow

@elsamurai when you say looks like the end is near how much longer do you think? I planned to let then go another couple of weeks based on everyone else's journals. I just fed them some nutes last night. I'm using root organic bloom, cal mag, fish fert, and alpha thrive. Do these things need to be flushed? Like say you tell me looks like the plants will be ready in a week instead of 2, do I have enough time to properly flush them?
Another question @elsamurai I saw you said 96x3 reflector series but what do you know about the 96x5? The reason I ask is because on amazon I have access to the 96x5 and it's available for 12 month financing so I would have no trouble getting a couple of those ASAP bc it would be about $34 a month instead if the lump sum of 350-400.
New beans should be in by Saturday

@elsamurai about the yield, you really think these could get me an oz. per plant? Because I've never grown I can't eye ball it very well. They seem so small to me when I see other people grows. I'm a proud papa I just think I could have done a hell of a lot better. I'm going to up my game this next round for sure!

I would just go with the fan from your friend. It does not have to be exactly 3 times the space. The vent in the door should be fine too. Really as long as the air is being pulled in the door, and not allowed to flow back out it, there would be no concern for the hot air or smell to leak in to your house. When the door is closed and you put your hand on the grate, can you feel a decent breeze? Make sure when you put the fan in that it is seated snugly, and secure. Main reason is this fan will have a lot more torque, and will vibrate a lot more. You wouldn't want it to fall. (i don't take you for stupid, but a simple mistake can cause a house fire it that fan where to crash in to your lights,
warnings get told to all skill levels) The other reason is the you want the fan to have a good "suction" on the room, and if the fan is not decently sealed it will suck air from your attic creating turbulence that might decrease its effectiveness. Its not rocket science, and I'm not trying to make it that. Just trying to be thorough.My 2¢ is that you are better of with 3 watt diodes. The panels using 3w tend to be more efficient, and generate less heat. Although no where near the heat of HID lights. The 5w diodes do have better penetration, but you need to keep them a bit farther away from the canopy. Also when you are using a lower wattage led, you are able to actually get a better spread of the light. Think about 1, 10w unit, VS 10, 1w units. (by the way, never get panels using 1w) Most of what I have read with people doing comparisons are that the 3w'ers tend to be a better choice.
This is a good idea. It does not have to be anything big. I use a 5" clip on fan slightly angeled at the light. It keeps the heat from pooling. With my light being in only a 16" sq area, it actually work for my circulation too.
Yeah so I can't wait to watch my own LSD. It is going to be about 70-80ish days, as I have a tent full of photos at the moment, but it is on the next grows roster. I'm planning on doing 1x LSD, 1x Crustal meth, 3 Industrial plant CBD auto (these will be getting names, I have no intentions of typing that every time), and another Bubba Kush auto. First 2 are FastBuds obviously, last 2 are Dinafem. Off to update my journal.... I harvested the GSC... More details there. Take care bud.:smoking:
@Fuggzy I never thought about making the previous exhaust fan the one that blows over the lights. I was actually thinking of building a tent and using the exhaust fan I'm using now for the tent, but maybe I'll keep it small for now. Great idea of using it across the lights though! that'll be a lot of air movement and cheaper than a cheap fan haha!
@Krypt247 I have been very lucky to have nearly everything donated to me except the nutes and beans and you're right, it's not broken so no need to fix it. I will prob run this setup for at least the next two rounds. I tend to impulse buy shit when I get excited, thanks for keeping me in check.
@Fuggzy have you ever grown a high CBD strain? That's pretty cool I'm interested to see that one.
I removed a lot of fan leaves today, leaves are yellowing a lot. I'd like to let them go another two weeks if I can. They seem to really like that HPS, wish I had it from the beginning.

I suspect my 1st grow was. It was a random bagseed from some midgrade herb, and I think mexican sativa. The buzz was mostly in the head, light and straight forward, but pretty nice. It made my back feel as if there was never a problem. I grew out 3 females, and got about 1-1.2oz from them. This would be my 1st actual CBD breed strain. I'm pretty excited to have this strain already. It was just released about 2 weeks ago. I think the 1:2.25 thc:cbd will be great for taking care of the lil fugger during the day too.
So where you the one who was asking about a seed bank, and had 5 orders go bad at herbies? I have not dealt with herbies, but they seem to be pretty solid.
Attitude seedbank is where I go, and they have the crystal meth in stock. Currently they have all their gear but pineapple express in stock. As far as the bank, I'v place 4 orders totaling over $500, and got every order. The customer service is ok, but the service is pretty solid and fast. I think they have the best promotions too. This is from their christmas promo last year.
Another bank is oaseeds. I have only placed 1 order, but their customer service was A+. The prices are some of the cheapest out there too. My order was only a 6 pack of mixed autos, and I was given 4 auto freebies. It actually happens to be the amnesia in my current grow, and my favorite plant grown to date. I was emailed a picture of my package and it's contents prior to shipping, and given personal updates w/o asking. The one down side is it took a long time, and I did not have a tracking number. It was my first order ever, so I was paranoid the entire time. Brought a new meaning to stalking the mail man.
Anywho, it time to get some rest. Take care bud. :smoking:
@Fuggzy I've never knowingly dabbled with CBD, but I have read a lot about it and I would like to grow out a higher CBD strain one day, so I can't wait to see how yours goes. As for seed banks I think I had tried attitude originally but my bank was denying the purchase because it was overseas. I went to Herbie's with no problems, except that I never got my order. They were real cool about it though and gave me a full refund, which I thought was awesome. However, before I requested a refund when I was waiting for the second attempt for herbies to resend, I ordered 3 lsd-25 from gorilla just to see if I could get some beans! In 7 days the gorilla seeds were at my doorstep and I didn't even do stealth shipping. I opened my envelope and there was the fast buds pack. I might try Attitude again just for the fast buds CM strain!
Just a little update... The girl who got her head chopped off has become an experimental plant. Last night I chopped a side branch (at day 59). This decision was made because I don't have any herb and I had initially planned to harvest at different times to see the different effects the plant will produce at different stages of development. I must say that I have been getting ripped off of the 5 dry grams I had from the week 7 chop. The side branch I chopped last night after being destemmed and trim weighed 17 grams wet. I found this pretty exciting as I estimate that to be a little over 4 grams and I have 3 more branches with similar amounts of herb on them and 5 other bud sites that look like some solid 2 gram (dry) nugs. I am thinking that small plant I was expecting a half ounce off, when it's all said and done will have probably yielded over 30 dry grams! Which makes me really excited about my other two ladies 
In regards to the week 7 herb, because I needed herb I quick dried most of it and vapid it without cure. Because it was so smooth in the vape, I thought why don't I quick dry and take a bong rip....BIG MISTAKE. I thought for sure I was going to need a trach tube! My throat got destroyed. However, about a gram made it to the 4 day cure mark, which was enough to make it smooth out of the bong. At 4 days cure the smell of hay was gone but the herb didn't smell like it's full potential. Grinded up the smell is incredible after only 4 days curing. The taste from the bong was hard to judge because my bong needs a cleaning, but it sure was smooth!
Currently experimenting with different drying techniques as well. The week 7 herb I dried by hanging in a box with air flow. The day 58 herb I am drying in a paper bag that's hanging on a coat rack. I might like the paper bag method better, but I don't want to speak too soon.
Anyway today is day 60, I'm thinking day 65 I'll harvest another side branch from my amputee and then if I like where it's at everything will get chopped on day 70. So excited to have finally grown my own! Thanks to Fast Buds for these awesome genetics! and thanks for all the help I've received from this community!
