Fast Buds Jingo does Fastbuds Stardog, Lsd25 and Mexican Airlines. Lumigrow pro LED's and gh nutrients.

Ever wonder what's inside a lumigrow pro? This one started flickering the other day so I pulled it out to have a look-see. Turns out I need some new fans they're about $7-$8 apiece.

I love these lights, there's a guy on eBay selling a bunch of New Old Stock lumigrow Pro 325. He's only asking $400 apiece and about $20 shipping I wish I had enough money I'd buy me a few more.

Well I pulled my little stardawg out because I was thinking about trying to go for another top. But, as I looked real close I realized she's already getting staggered branches so I am done at 4 Tops.

I don't know if those pictures show The Staggering to the branches or not. In a couple more days I'll soften up those branches and start stretching them out towards those poles that I put in and then I'll just keep aiming them in that direction.

Hey jingo, just getting to this journal. My kids are burying us in insomnia. Looking great. I want to take a trip to mexico on that airlines.

Hey jingo, just getting to this journal. My kids are burying us in insomnia. Looking great. I want to take a trip to mexico on that airlines.

Welcome aboard, this will run awhile.

So I did some more work on the stardawg

Might have pinched one a bit too hard. I will give her about three days to recover and then I will cut off side branches and paint the four main tops with gibberellic acid, about 100ppm and see if that doesn't get her going again.

Don't have pictures of the others today, but they are getting big and in full stretch.

Well I made my decision with that stardawg. I decided to pinch and bend the remaining tops around as well as I can just to get a little spread and then after about 3 days recovery I'm going to coat the growth tips with ga3. I figure I'll try about 100 parts per million just doing it one time and see if that'll help her recover from all the abuse she's had so far.

I don't know if I have any current pictures of the other 2 plants, but they're taking off.

Okay, found a couple images from today.

You may be able to see some odd stuff on the bottom leaves, haven't figured those out.

Okay, my ga3 came in today so I removed all the growth tips, but the four mains from the stardawg. Then I mixed up a solution of 110 ppm ga3 in r/o water for a total ppm of 119. I then painted this solution on the tops with q-tip.

Let me back at the moment. Ga3 is also known as gibberellic acid it's commonly used in fruit tree and grape industry. Hasn't been really well evaluated for cannabis or hemp use at least not from what I can tell from my research.

If you do a little research and look at the effects it can have they're all over the board. It can cause male flowers on a female plant it can cause greater numbers of flowers and larger flowers it can cause lengthening of the stems. It's really kind of a Gamble. But, from my research it seems to be that with a sativa dominant strain smaller quantities might help it achieve a better size or recover from a significant growth disturbance.

So I took a very tiny amount of powdered ga3 less than one eighth of a teaspoon put that in a test tube with about 5 mil of alcohol. Swirl that around under the faucet until it dissolved about a minute. Added that to a small mason jar of reverse osmosis water. Then I checked the part per million and simply mixed RO water to get my desired ppm in a small quantity to apply.

The stardawg is the slightly stunted plant on the left. On the right is industrial plant CBD behind it is the Mexican Airlines and to the left rear is the LSD 25.

Here are a few images of the stardawg she seems to have recovered. No great surge in growth at this point.

The lsd-25 is the tallest of the three but she is also beginning to flower.

The Mexican Airlines is more Compact and bushy at this point but I don't see any flowers at least not as well developed as they LSD 25.

Thanks for stopping by[emoji6]

So the stardawg has recovered and it's taking off, looks like the ga3 rescue is working.

Now I'm starting to think about letting her develop side branches which wouldn't be typical of a Mainline but it might allow for a good-sized harvest with the way she's starting to pick up space between the nodes.

I've kept her on full strength grow nutrients because she looks pale she is growing so fast. She is also getting daily watering just to help her keep the nutrients she needs to keep going in this accelerated growth.

The other two plants are on transition nutrients and I'm backing off the grow nutrients at this time.

Looking excellent jingo. Hope your holidays were as such
