Demosthenese Hello everyone!
This is the 6th plant in a perpetual 4x4 closet grow which produces a finished autoflower plant every two weeks on a 90 day cycle from planting to harvest.
Looking forwards to more FastBuds genetics!
Check out my other journals for the overall closet and the other plants!
She popped on day 2, day 3 she is fully out and about!

Demosthenese Day 10: Looking good!
Day 14: No growth over 4 days essentially, not sure what's causing this little one to stall. Could be too much light I suppose, or a lack of a dark period, but she's a light green and basically hasn't grown in a week. This is my first "failure" from a fastbuds plant. I'll let her go obviously but I am not hopeful for a recovery at this point. She is at least a week behind which will make a big difference.

Demosthenese Day 18: Well she's the runt of the litter. Looks healthy and is growing regular leaves, just like at 20% speed compared to all my previous seedlings. Identical environment and soil set up. I must conclude this one is just genetivally slow. It will be interesting to see if she finishes in 90 days as a tiny plant, or takes much longer to grow and flower in general.

Demosthenese Day 21: Well she's starting to grow a little, but no doubt she will be a runt. A strangely healthy looking runt.
Day 24: Tiny but making it! She's started to branch. If she starts to stretch and flower in a week she will be a hilarious little Christmas tree by the end. Time will tell. The only way I could have been a factor in the stunting of this plant would have been overwatering, every other parameter was exactly the same as all my other successful seedlings. I didn't on purpose overwater but I mostly just try and keep the soil moist I don't really measure (then again that's the same with the successful seedlings too!). But then I would have expected to see drooping or curling of the leaves. This plant has LOOKED healthy the whole time, just grew 1/4 speed /shrug.

Demosthenese Day 26- Well she's doing alright. Still quite small for an almost 30 day old plant, but no sign of flowering yet either so if she grows a week or two more she may come good yet.
Day 32- She's doing great at this point, she really managed to catch up. I'm quite surprised, my conclusion is that her genetics prioritizes root development during that first two weeks more then some of the other plants I've had. Thus when she moved to start veg growth she ramped it up faster than normal too. Who knows lol.

Demosthenese Day 37: Well she's still in veg, I see a single open calyx so definitely a female, just a little slower then previous autos who all entered flowering around day 30. The new growth leaves are starting to transition, so I expect her to be in flower by next week. I'm happy; this means she has had time to catch up in veg and won't be a runt!

Demosthenese Day 41: I see a single open calyx with pistils, so she's definitely a girl, but still not fully into flowering yet. Looks like she is just going to take her time, but her size is pretty excellent at this point.

Demosthenese Day 50- She's finally solidly into flower. She's huge. I guess she's just a slow grower. I am anticipating her maybe taking longer then the 90 days, we shall see.

Demosthenese Day 58- She's still 2 weeks behind, developing a little slowly. I would expect her younger sister the chocolate skunk to overtake her at some point.

Demosthenese Day 73- SO SLOOOOOOOOW. Just got unlucky with the pheno. If she takes 150 days so be it, hopefully it will still be nice weed, she is a very large plant so will probably have a good harvest.
