Fast Buds Gorila Glue Auto FB with Biotabs

[Vlada]

My first deal with Fast Buds genetics.
Up to first 2 weeks will be in temporaly small tent of 0.16m2 (40 with 40 cm) till DIY grow cabinet is build. 7l text pot each. BioBizz light mix with Biotabs. GN HS1 75w led light to start with, if possible will upgrade to Telos 0006 but it may be too strong for new grow cabinet wich will be a bit small for Telos. May buy new Migro Aray 120w instead

Day 1

DIY grow box in the progress

2 weeks old Gorila Glue plants
Both plants took less than 48 hours from soaking in the water (for some 10+ hours) till showing as seedling from the earth, fastes ever for me so far. Even so one plant is of double size than another one. Both showing development of new cental leavs at the same rate but one simple look as mini version of another one. Bigger one has better development of side branches

DIY incognito grow cabinet slowly developing, I am constantly trying to figure out the best way to put things together and analizing potentional issues to avoid I may otherwise run into.
Few more days to go

That's some great growth for 2 weeks!
They're looking stunning!

It will be Gorila Glue show. So far great genetics and good enviroment are to blame for great growth. I hardly have time to put any effort around them and they are running out of time in small tent

Finally I can post an update.
It has been hell of last few weeks working on DIY grow cabinet.
It was my first attempt to make more complex grow system, with few compromises, didnt realy want to use IKEA wardrobe to start with because of not ideal dimensions I could choose from to very limited ceiling and in general limited space availability in the room. And complexity.
Lets hope invested hardship and numerous sleepless nights pays off.
Photos are taken yesterday with plants being 3 weeks 1 day old (22 days) before finally moved to new space.
I would never believe taller one of two plants can grow at that rapid speed.
It showed sex when 2 weeks old, now at height of 60cm and only 3 weeks old is already forming firsy flowers. Out of this world!
Another plant only yesterday showed very first thiny pistils, I guess it means she will grow longer and bigger. She is 35 cm tall and more bushy with 3 side branches at the same height as main one. The tall plant was growing very rapidly from day one and if grown in bigger pot may grew very big indeed.

I managed to move plants to new cabinet and provide them much needed space but the cabinet itself is not done yet. Two three more days I guess

4 weeks old.
I am using Hydrolab EC fan 4", the same one TaNg was using. It doesnt have the power to do the job in my settup. When all doors are closed airflow throug fan reduces significantly, even at highest speed it seem airflow is less than 50% of what it should be.
Either fan is not strong enought or my settup with plants and light being in one chamber and fan with carbon filter in another chamber, with one whole between them for pasive intake is not good one. This way I have 2 pasive intakes, one from outside through duct to main chamber and another one between two chambers. I could add small intake fan of less power but would it work having in mind it is sealed grow system?

Migro Aray 120W led light. Lets see what it can do!
Taller plant 96cm tall and it may be end of streaching phase, I hope so!
Shorter plant aprox. 60cm tall
A bit on grow settup itself - it will need few changes for optimal air flow and higher ventilation performances. It is not about Hydrolab fan being of low quality, indeed it seem to be excelent fan, just I didnt realy know how to create efficient ventilation system. All it takes is to remove as whole or to cut very big hole in the wall barrier that separates two chambers so air can move freely and Hydrolab fan can work at its optimum (whic is much higher of what is now).
Now finally I can truly relax and grow (even that it seems as if plants grow themsels so far, they are very easy to grow with no issues at all)
