The girls have gone through a lot this week 😬After a couple of days of LST, I let them recover for a few days. Once they were looking perky again, I decided to top all three. Day 31 - topped the girls after some deliberation. I had been undecided, ultimately figured that it was best for my situation, whether or not I decide to use my DIY scrog screen. For those unsure of when to top, 5 nodes or true leaf sets seems to work for me. Find the shoot at the very top, make sure it’s got some small shoots on either side started, and snip! It’s that easy. Topping will disrupt the hormones being distributed through the plant instead of the top, and force your plants energy and growth to the lower branches. Not to mention you will now have two main tops growing instead of one 😎 Give the plants some time to recover before doing anything major again, and you should he able to see your plants get bushier instead of taller. Once they were topped I bent and worked all the stems and branches between my fingers making sure to get all of them. As you can tell from the main stalk, the twisting and bending works, she thicc already! I also put their wire ties back on and bent all three over as far as I could get them to go comfortably before feeling like they would snap. This was a lot of stress for these girls, but they have shown they have a great stress response, and recover quickly. Can’t wait till the weekend, my big tent will be cleaned and ready to go from my last harvest, they are growing so fast! Happy Gardening đŸ‡šđŸ‡Šâ€ïžđŸŒ±đŸ˜ŽđŸ’š

Ladies, gentlemen, and all the wonderful beings following this journey, I am thrilled to announce that we have reached the highly anticipated harvest week for our beautiful PCRs. This has been an incredible journey, and now it's time to reap the rewards of our hard work and dedication. The PCRs are nothing short of perfection. Their frost-covered buds are a sight to behold, glistening like they've been kissed by winter's breath. The trichomes are abundant and sparkling, making these ladies look absolutely stunning. The aroma is intoxicating, a true testament to their strong genetics and the care they've received. Upon taking them out of the tent, I was amazed by their strength and resilience. Despite my best efforts to make them dance, these ladies stood tall and proud, requiring no support at all. This just goes to show the exceptional quality and sturdiness of the PCR strain. Aptus Holland's Enzym+. This product is a game-changer, breaking down dead root material and turning it into usable nutrients, ensuring our soil remains rich and fertile for future grows. Speaking of which, I do plan to reuse the soil, thanks to the amazing benefits of Enzym+. This enzyme product not only helps with nutrient uptake but also keeps the soil ecosystem healthy and thriving. Here's the final stats for this week: TDS: 130 PH: 6.8 Temp: 21°C A huge shout-out to Aptus Holland for their incredible products that have consistently supported my plants' growth and health. Also, a massive thank you to Art Genetix for creating the phenomenal PCR strain that has brought so much joy to this grow. To all my fellow growers, followers, and the entire community, your support and encouragement mean the world to me. This journey wouldn't be the same without you. As we move forward, let's continue to spread love, positivity, and the joy of cultivating these amazing plants. Stay tuned for the final results and more updates as we dry and cure these beautiful buds. Until then, keep growing, stay positive, and never stop believing in the magic of cultivation.

Day 33 from Seed: In general these ladies have just got on with it this week while I worried about some of the other girls. Their training has been a breeze so far and they have been made more pliable by the silica. I have now stopped using the Mega crop in the Los soil now the pot is making it's own nutes but I will keep my eye on them for any paling and need to re feed with the Mc. The coco girls are on 1g/L to see how they settle into that now. #1is doing brilliantly and her size indicates she will be a great yielder. She is quick to turn her heads back up once pinned so I will need a fast hand to keep up. #2 The runt of the whole pack. I dont know why she is so small besides some evidence of def on her initial growing leaves. Her new growth looks a lot better but I think she will need less strength feed than the others. Her structure looks good but she is very small I general compared. #3 was my expected star of the grow room but is now not in the front row anymore. She is perfect and growing great. training has been easy with her and her sites are plentiful too. I think she will be the biggest of the Smoothies. I am very happy with their progress so far . great work Fast buds.

This week the girls look very thirsty. They clearly increased their consumption of water, maybe because of the temperature witch is quiet high for a end of october.... Anyway, I have to water the plants every 2 days maximum otherwise the leaves are going down... Beside this, they look great :)

7/7 Grow diaries isnt letting me post a harvest week. So heres a little teaser. 65 grams dry. 2ounces 9. kaprikorns website says this is a low yielding plant. i cannot fathom what their high yeilding plants will do. this cultivar was only 12 inches from the soil line. i trained her fairly intensely but it was worth it. not much larf and the main nugs are nice and uniform. if you didnt train this plant, i can see how it wouldnt really yield much.

Week 6 - Week without surprises. No-till cycle working well, watering only with water, but note that the companion plants still grow crooked. Soon the soil still shows signs of excesses, I believe that in the next cycles these excesses will be fixed. Hugz from Brazil.

She grew 10cm this week! Next week I'm going to change the HID bulb I use in the tent. Currently it's quite a red spectrum. I'm going to swap it to a more blue/daylight 1000w item.

Hi Growmies, She continues to develop nicely. The rootball continues to expand and nested itself right above the airstone. She is very thirsty, finishing a good 10l over the course of 5 days. I have opened my last atami rockzbastic tester and added a ml per liter. Seems like the buds start stretching around the colas now, so pretty much half time +- a week.

Harvesting this week. Probably going to do a staggered harvest, half this week, and the rest next week. Developed nutrient burn, I’m assuming root debris breakdown. I was unable to fully change out buckets once trellis net filled up and canopy developed. Switched to Athena cleanse to help sterilize root debris. Smells like jelly donut bakery, extremely sticky. Buds stick to wall lol. The last pictures will be featured in new diary. Breeder Barney’s farm. Mimosa orange punch and Pineapple Express 3.5 weeks old in hydroponic bucket. Blue dream in fox farm ocean forest soil for outdoor transfer. Attempting cloning this season

Weather has been rainy and windy so she has been living under a shelter at nights and most days. The climate is getting moisty here so i decides to remove some fanleafs again to keep a good airflow. Buds are getting bigger and they make me wanna sing ' I like big buds and i can not lie..'

Bellissime,abbondanti e cariche di infiorescenze resinose e profumate! Dimensioni grandi e qualitĂ  altissima! È stata una settimana bella e calda e ormai siamo in estate quindi continuano a riempirsi di infiorescenze molto resinose e dure. Ogni varietĂ  Ăš una vera soddisfazione! Grazie a tutte le banche dei semi che hanno creato queste varietĂ  magnifiche! Per alcune manca poco alla raccolta mentre altre ci vuole piĂč di una settimana di attesa anche due settimane. Sono felice, bravissimi tutti.

Petite taille effectuĂ©, j’ai coupĂ© l’apex et j’ai laisser seulement le noeud juste en dessous de celui qui Ă©tais le plus dĂ©veloppĂ©, pour vois si les deux repousse de l’apex et celle du noeud en dessous arrive Ă  la mĂȘme taille/croissance , afin d’ĂȘtre le plus symĂ©trique possible. Car avant tous je suis passionnĂ© par l’art vĂ©gĂ©tal et le bonsaĂŻ, j’ai commencĂ© Ă  cultiver du cannabis il y a maintenant 3ans, un Ă©tĂ© j’ai plantĂ© une petite graines dans un bĂȘte terreaux vide de nutriments, et lĂ  tout a commencĂ©. Mais comme dis prĂ©cĂ©demment j’aimais l’art, et ce plant en question je l’ai transformĂ© en bonsaĂŻ, un magnifique bonsaĂŻ, un chef d’Ɠuvre, au quel j’ai perdu toutes photos. L’annĂ©e d’aprĂšs j’ai recommencĂ© le mĂȘme scĂ©nario, une graine et on recommence, la se fut un Ă©chec, plant trop gourmand et trop sensible au stress, il m’a lĂąchĂ© Ă  3/4semaine de floraison, puis maintenant 1ans que je cultive en intĂ©rieur a rechercher une bonne recette de living soil, toujours Ă  la recherche de perfection jusqu’à couper avant mĂȘme la fin de floraison car j’étais pas satisfait du rĂ©sultat. (C’est pour ça aussi que j’ai supprimĂ© tous mes journaux) J’ai coupĂ© deux cultures comme ça et j’ai fais qu’une rĂ©coltes sur la troisiĂšme. Maintenant celle qui m’excite le plus est la petite graine d’extĂ©rieur, oui comme on dit jamais deux sans trois, plus de 1ans que j’attends cette variĂ©tĂ©, la Frosty purple freak. Le mutant violet de chez Khalifa Genetic. Que je vais bien Ă©videmment travailler comme un bonsaĂŻ, mais symĂ©trique , je vais Ă©viter de trop le stresser comme j’ai eu du retard sur la croissance du a certain imprĂ©vu de type limace et temps catastrophique. (2 graines bien plantĂ© dans mon derriĂšre.) je vais essayer de bien le diriger tous en essayant d’avoir une certaine rĂ©colte, en faire un bonsaĂŻ crĂ©e d’énormes stress au plant et ralenti considĂ©rablement la croissance, pour essayer de rĂ©colter 50/100 grammes sur le plant en extĂ©rieur faudrais approcher les 3/4 mois de vĂ©gĂ©tation si tu implique des haut stress training et de la coupe a gogo. Et j’avoue que j’ai pas payer plus de 50litre de living soil juste pour 15/20 grammes de rĂ©coltes sur le plant, mĂȘme si la satisfaction d’avoir fait une Ɠuvre d’art, ça ne vaut pas le coup, je ferais mieux l’annĂ©e prochaines, je dois accepter cette dĂ©faite. J’ai mis des vidĂ©o de mon deuxiĂšme bonsaĂŻ, il Ă©tais en dĂ©but de floraison et il avait environ 4mois, sans nutriments ,je lui estimais 30/50 grammes en fin de Flo, mais il m’a lĂącher. Dans les deux derniĂšres vidĂ©o, il y en a une oĂč on voit bien le dĂ©pĂŽt bactĂ©rien et nutritifs du thĂ© de compost oxygĂ©nĂ©. Recette du thĂ© pour la semaine 15litre d’eau de pluie 30 gr guano guali 15 gr Meal wormcastings 15 gr nettle 7 gr spirulina 7 gr Hydrosolat Kelp 225 gr wormcastings 15 gr hydrolysĂąt de poisson 15 gr Comfrey 10 gr levure saccharomyces cerevisiae souches lycc 6420 60 gr Zeolit of chabasit 15 gr Azomite 45 ml de mĂ©lasse 15ml d’acide Humic et fluvic J’ai arroser 6 litre pour la purple freak et le reste a d’autre plantes Et un autre arrosage avec 500ml d’eau neutre avec 1gr bacilllus amyloliquefaciens x5 qui a Ă©tĂ© effectuĂ© le lendemain du thĂ© La culture se passe bien, du cĂŽtĂ© de la purple freak Aucun problĂšme Ă  dĂ©plorer, plant trĂšs rĂ©sistant, au changement de tempĂ©rature et condition climatique supporte trĂšs bien les orages et les temps pluvieux et chaud, pas de signe de maladie, j’ai actuellement des ravageur depuis le dĂ©but de la culture, pas un signe de problĂšme. RĂ©agit trĂšs bien au coupe, j’en suis plus que ravie, elle fait partis de mon top1. Seul truc qui m’inquiĂšte, c’est ce mauvais temps. Un mĂ©lange de chaleur et de pluie, qui a amenĂ© de l’oidium sur certaine de mes plantes extĂ©rieur, j’ai peur que cela se propage sur la purple freak. Je vais devoir traiter tous cas, sans traitement agressif bien sĂ»r.

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!đŸ€Ż I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!đŸ€Ș💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 5/23- Week three from seed and the second week of veg for the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod and she's doing surprisingly well considering the crappy weather, and being eaten like a salad by slugs and a rabbit! 5/25- The diatomaceous earth that I spread around her seems to have lessened the attacks on her leaves. I've also been spraying her down every other day with Neem Oil, and every three days with an organic insecticidal soap that I'm sure has helped as well. I watered the Papaya Sherbet today via garden hose and began to train her branches a bit as well. 5/27- The FastBuds Papaya Sherbet continues to do exceptionally well with great color and vigor, putting out new growth it seems daily. 5/29- There's three weeks on the books for this little lady and I'm looking forward to see what she'll look like in the coming weeks! I will have to top dress her soon, probably in the next few days. I haven't added any dry amendments to her since I initially amended her soil and she's a hungry girl... Hope to see you next week, stay Blessed! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏
