@Bakstein420 awesome news that your seeds just arrived.. def know that feeling! Let's see which germe faster, keep us posted ? Out of curiosity was your fastbuds seeds in a black bag or orange ish bag ?

Popped these 5 lemonpie on friday night, by Sat morning they cracked the radicals were about 2mm each.. by Sunday morning they were 4mm , 5mm, 9mm,9mm, 14mm respectively.. and placed into jiffy pellets Monday night helmets were off And today as you can see in the pic these babies are growing like true weeds and then there are the critical plus 2.0s.. Guys my advice is to buy newly released strains as far as possible..

@Bakstein420 I do use a heat mat @Fridgedoor @PsyCLown I personally think that the seeds were really old , so what I do now days is I look for newly released strains and buy those. So far it has worked popped 5 lemonpie from fastbuds and all 5 sprouted within 24 hours and by 48 hours helmets were off The dinafems have still not sprouted.. Going to pop another 5 lemonpie amd see if I can germ them within 24 hours

Hey Guys.. Would like to know your experiences germinating dinafem seeds ? What was your method and what was your success rate with them? I use the paper towel method in a plastic container with a heating mat underneath I personally have germinated alot with them and my rate seems to be around 50 -60% Fastbuds I had 100% germination, also big buddha seeds 100% all seeds germinated I have found dinafem seeds to be absolutely difficult to germ and they seem like they are not eager to live while the others are true weeds in that they are fighting to sprout if that makes sense to you guys.. I popped 10 dinafem seeds which I had kept for a year in a dark cool cupboard in their original packaging and i germinated 5 fastbuds seeds on Friday Dinafem seeds have not germed or cracked open as yet while all 5 fastbuds are already in jiffy pellets taking roots and have de shelled.. Have any of you guys had the same experience with dinafem seeds ? Will post pics later today

Thanks for the response guys.. The advice is much needed. Will try and do more research on it and decide if I will use it ot not.. will keep you guys updated if I do

Bought some lemon pie 5 seeds from biltong n buds.. Can't wait to grow these beauties from what I've seen on grow diaries they look delicious!! Going to push these ladies to the max!! So its going to be 5 lemonpie and 5 or 6 critical plus 2.0 A big thank you to @afternoon blazer for pointing me in the right direction and the rest of the guys for the advice , much appreciated

bro I checked out 420 fastbuds and my mouth is literally watering I think I'm going to order some right now! They say it ships from a location they have in Spain.. any idea how long they take to deliver here in SA ? And @Prom is absolutely correct and I can say the same about dinafem, i got 3 phenos from 10 critical seeds and had to harvest afew that matured 2weeks earlier than the others ,their genetics is quite unstable from my experience too.. also 2 of the seeds grew deformed from germination (and what I though immediately was that the plants the seeds were harvested from were deformed) wonder if there's any truth in that.. Thanks bro for the awesome intro to fastbuds420

@afternoon blazer I still have 10 critical plus 2.0 autos so I plan on using them again before I order more seeds. They are over a year old so going to pop em tomorrow and hope they all germ otherwise il going to have to order new seeds.. not sure what tho , mayb some diff autos from dinafem or mayb humboldt not sure tho so if you have any suggestions for good STRONG autos pls let me know.. ? I prefer autos coz its honestly easier than photos and the potency is decent enough. Or mayb ill just order more of the critical coz I grew em 4times so far and they were very resilient ladies, rh was 65 to 70% most of the time and temps of between 30 and 33 degrees Celsius during summer and she pulled through with ease, also good tall bulky plants with great yields.. Leme know your thoughts ?

Hey fellow growers.. I received a sample bottle of biodyne liquid gold. Does anybody here have any experience with it ? I would highly appreciate any info I can get from anyone who has used it.. Also I am growing in coco+perlite mix with floracoco grow+bloom, and some flowering boosters during flowering.. Totally happy with my regimen but since I got this freebie mayb I can add it into the mix ?? Any thoughts guys (and gals if any) would be awesome

Thanks for the warm welcome guys Growing indoors in 5X5 .. 600 watt used 1st week of veg and 1000 watt used 2nd 3rd 4th week during veg 600 watt used 1st 10days of flower and 1000watt hps used for the rest of flowering Light is aircooled 12000 btu portable aircon coz of the ridiculous Temps here in durban (I love the warm weather personally ) Average Temps wer 30 -32 degrees Celsius Grown in coco +perlite 20L airports and 15L autopots GHE floracoco grow +bloom also used used ripen during 3rd and 4th week flower and atami bloombastic till harvest, oh and flushed her for 4days b4 harvest Strain was critical + 2.0 from dinafem These autos can take a beating and half!!! This strain gave me 3 phenotypes from 10 plants, 2 were scrapped early in the grow 1 pure indica short and stocky 1 sativa dominant tall and slender and the rest were a good mix id say 65 % indica 35% sativa mix..
