because it’s my first grow..nobody pulls off amazing yields on their first grow.. my GSC plants are about 50cm tall and have had no issues, but really, 3oz off an auto?
I averaged over 3oz off my first grow which was also autos and a few strains were fast buds. Looks like your doing things right man dont doubt yourself. What do you have a 600w hps in a 4x4? my first grow was a 1000 in a 5x5 so about the same watts per square foot.

Autos like unobstructed mediums or plugs - i either drop seed in solo first to grow a plug of soil for transplant or directly into pot.

looks like auto is not happy with RW. You “ could “
( carefully ) split cube open enough to free the seedling and gently place in a starter mix of medium.
Seems that seedling wasn't a lost cause after all, since it never seemed to be dead after I (carefully) removed it from the cube I kept feeding it, it took a while but in the past 2 weeks it went from this..

Six weeks, the girls are starting to flower but when I was mixing a fresh batch of MC I noticed that the Cal/Mag I have been adding is 2.0.0, so maybe my N is a little high after all. I didn't add Cal/Mag to this batch and will be watching to see how they do. I also ordered some Bud Explosion from Greenleaf NPK 0-26-37 + Magnesium and will start adding that next week..

I’ve got 4 of these going crazy in a 3.5 x3.5. Germed the five pack but gave one away. Glad I did. Did you get the buy one get one free deal on the seeds too? Made it such a great deal.
I think you’ll be ok with the extra N as they seem to take a lot of it during early flower. I’m noticing a little lightening of the leaves. I’m about 2 weeks into flower.

Here’s my girls. This was day 40

I got a 5 pack of GSC and got 2 seeds free, one was a Stardawg from FastBuds and one was a Glue Gelato Auto from Barneys Farm.

Looking good man.

I've used Fast Buds for the past 2 years. Grown many of GSC autos. They are a very tough and resilient plant. I love the quality and have only been ordering GSC my last 2 purchases. I love it that much, no need to try something different right now.

i completely agree with you. I’d reccomend any new growers try fast buds as they’re so easy and resilient! I’ve been nothing but impressed so far with my GSC plants, I’ve got 5 on the go! I’m hoping for at least an ounce dried per plant! In your growing experience do you think this is possible or should I lower my expectations lol

One ounce dried is VERY possible. That's my ceiling as far as expectation and anything above is a bonus. I've averaged about 40-45g dried (per plant) with only 2 300W LEDs. I just added a 150W HPS to my tent, so I should increase that to about 2 zips.

What is the taller plant in the back left?
I’ve got a 600W HPS set up, but as it’s my first grow I’m honestly not sure what to expect in terms of yield, but I’m keeping optimistic with 1oz dried per plant. There’s 6 plants in total, 5 are fast buds GSC and the 6th in the back left is also an Auto - it’s Glue Gelato Auto from Barneys farm, I brought the 5 fem GSC seeds and the seed bank sent me a free auto fem’d seed which was the Glue Gelato so I grew that too! It’s much bigger than the GSC it’s over 100cm tall now.

this is the main cola on one of my GSC - the clipper is for size reference lol

Dude. 600W HPS? You will easily get 1 ounce per plant dried. You could realistically expect 2 ounces per plant dried, or MORE.

You at 28 days on the GSC?
technically it’s day 37, it’s in its 6th week but it reccomends they go 10 weeks , then from what I read you gotta add at least a week onto that as seed breeders lie about how quick their plants finish ahaha (or so I read) so realistically I’m expecting 11 weeks from seed to finish, which would mean technically I’ve still got 5 weeks to go.

:bigjoint::eyesmoke: Stoner logic right?

Before I get slated ahaha just bare in mind I’m using 5 weeks as a rough guide! I’ll monitor it nearer the time - using a proper scope.
