Welcome back to Fat Yappa's ladies and gentlemen, its been another mad week in the garden. This week these girls have began to produce some serious quantities of bud sites, but the transition into flower has not been without its adversity to be conquered. Gone is the humidifier, and the battle with humidity has commenced. All of a sudden the three larger Banner ladies, together with their Wedding Cheesecake Fastbuds cousin in Coco Coir have levelled up from 2.5L per plant ever four days, to 2.5L every two days, which has increased the humidity substantially, and this week has mostly been a battle to get the RH down to 50% or below, which has meant the tent door has been open as much as situations have allowed for that, the grow tent heater has been turned off, and my central heating has been ramped back up to 21c in an endeavour to dry the air some what, and the room in which the grow tent is situated has seen the addition of an old but reasonable dehumidifier on loan from my parents. I have also had to put some further serious thought into air circulation, and the T6 has been ramped up to level 6 as a constant, the intake fan has been increased, and Ive lowered one of my 40w fans closer to canopy level. The other 40w fan is situated in the top back corner, opposite the carbon filter to try and prevent stale air from building up in there, and I did try and lower this one also, but the way I have it wired, the plug flex would only allow me to gain a couple of inches. Circulation has improved, but is still not ideal across the entire canopy and this has caused some anxiety in regard to humidity and mould etc. To counteract this, and now that bud sites are developing, gaining a clear vision of which fan leaves could be removed, there have been a few defoliation session this week. Nothing major, maybe a couple of handfuls off the the older Bruce Banners, yet compared to the Wedding Cheesecake in Coco, which stands at a whopping 28 inches, towering over everything else in the tent by almost a foot now, despite the LST, which is much less of a leafy specimen and has only lost a dying leaf or two. In terms of LST, I have continued to perform the technique two or three times a week on all the plants, yet have stopped on the four larger plants in the past few days as I fear their stems are becoming too rigid for it now, and to further add to this, there is literally no more space for them to go besides up. The Wedding Cheesecake in Coco is a concern, with it being so high above the rest of the canopy, but there is literally nowhere else to tie her down. I will continue on the smaller Wedding Cheesecake, growing in living soil, and the Bruce Banner runt for another week or so, which at the moment I would describe as being in pre flower, and seem to be about a week behind the other four, until I feel the same fears in regard to the technique damaging them. As hinted at above, space is becoming an issue, housing these six big autoflowers in a 4x4, and the five plants that were originally intended would have been more than adequate to fill the space, and things have become so tight in there that I have had to remove the intake fan and place it on the outside of the tent, but the increase in sound from this has left me dissatisfied with this as a permanent solution. The increase in intake and out take fans, and the edition of the noisy old dehumidifier has caused noise to become a slight issue, but I will be ordering a good, modern, efficient 20L dehumidifier tomorrow and hopefully this will aid significantly toward solving a number of this weeks issues. With most adequate timing, the click from the timer on the sf4000 signals lights out on another day in Fat Yappa's Garden, its time for me to zip these ladies up and tuck them in for the night, so I must bid you all farewell for another week, and wish that all is growing well for you too

This girl has been one of my favorites. Pineapple express is true to it name looking like a pineapple once it fades the yellow, and the green are very beautiful together smells gassy with pineapple busting out of every tone

First week of flower in the Parlour. They started the week receiving a feed of 1.8ec Calcium at 6.4 PH. Reason being the Pinapple they are sharing the tent with were showing cal deficiency with patchy leaves and some major droop. Back on regular feeding schedule now and needing a watering every day. I'm doing a day of ph water then next day nute feed. Stops any build up but also keeps costs down. If they show any deficiencies then I'll take the hit and switch to nutrients every day. The BioGreen range I'm using is exactly that, biological. So in theory there shouldn't be any salt issues. As in the title its my first time trying autos so I'm pretty impressed with how much flower they have produced in just 7 days. One seems to be a slightly different pheno but both are looking happy and healthy.

She’s looking nice looking healthy, drying up once every 2 days so she’s starting to drink, I just hope she doesn’t stretch too much as she’s already the tallest in there. Got some nice purple on the buds from the cold nights. Let’s hope she can get nice a fat 🌱🐞🤙

Finally getting around to uploading for the week of 9/5- Good thing I've been making videos! Blueberry is the reigning queen of the garden, She's just awesome😎 Defoliated interior and top dressed with a cup of Down to Earth Minerals Vegetable Garden 4-4-4 over the roots and put a layer of compost on top to lock it in. We've been getting a lot of rain and I really don't need to water so the dry nutrients make sense, and saves time.

Looking good buds gettin fat

26 July 2025 Find Blueberry muffin had couple of bottom branches die, seems all brunch is like rotten, just pull the branch and come off effortlessly. some root issue, believe ants have nest right under the plant. Will put some product to kill all nest. Hope that's save the plant, it's biggest plant in garden. Rest of plant seems doing ok, just watering them once a week, need to come and water them at least twice a week now. Getting dry quickly. Luckily we have Rainey days recently 😃 Feed them with compost tea and alga grow..

This lady got cut down on day 64, she has some beautiful colors & a very distinctive smell! The buds are all around good size nugs and very hard, can’t wait to see how she turns out! I definitely recommend going to check out Bomb seeds & getting yourself some fire genetics! Will do a harvest post as soon as she is finished drying & I get a weight! Thanks for following & happy growing!

Week 5 of Flower is over and my Papaya Cake girl is showing her true colors and smells! She is in full bloom and pumpin trichomes like a Queen. Report: I’m seeing a “tiny” bit of nutrient deficiency pop up but nothing to be alarmed about. She been getting straight 6.2 ph water and nothing else from here on out. Shout out to the YouTube channel “Welcome to the Grow tent” and “Growweedeasy.com for pointing out a few mistakes I’ve made along the way and saving my ass when I thought it was a Nute defi but was just a root bound plant. Their reccs have made a HUGE diff in my yields and overall plant structure. The last run with this strain was nothing like this girl. The smell in the morning around 8:40 and 6:40pm in the evening is something you could write a book about.🎂 Your nose picks up faint odor of papaya and vanilla wedding cake. Hence the lineage she came from would make the most sense. Do you talk to your plants? I do and I know they are paying me back for the CO2 they need. I’m def enjoying the fruits of my labor as they say. And I hope you enjoy the pics. —— How I would rate her overall —— Node stacking: 7/10 Cola structure: 8/10 (more time to improve) Smell: 9/10 Colors of bud sites: 9.5/10 Size of buds: 8/10 (this will never be a 10😎) Overall Appearance: 9/10 Taste: TBD

4/22/25: last flush 2 tsp of sledgehammer with 1 gallon of water used 2 gallons between all three plants…more cool colors coming in with the fade 4/24/25: fed with recommended dosage for week 11 on my schedule card (day 31 of flower) 4/27/25: watered with plain ph water at 6.8

Day 82 - 12/12/19 So harvest is here and what a journey this has been :) This plant took much longer than the others but paid off at the end with huge colas! Wet weigh was around 400g so im expecting about 60g from this once dried :) Has a slight fruity/spicy taste to it. i wont be able to honestly tell until fully dried and cured though :) Big thanks to RQS for thier amazing genetics and a big thanks to all who helped out along the way! Il update the dry weight when dried and the bud report all throughout curing :) Day 85 - 16/12/19 All buds have been dried and damn it really filled up this 68g jar! i got 64g dry weight of prime buds probably another 10g of popcorn buds that i threw in with the trim. coming into heavy flowering i expected an ounce, after i started adding calmag and pk13/14 the buds exploded. and my expectations raised to about 45g. for it to be 64g at harvest from a 43cm tall plant thats something. A few experienced growers reckoned the high yield was because of polyploidy which i believe is a genetic mutation. i looked it up and i cant say if this is what happened or not. The bud has been dried fully and slower than last time, ive tried to have airflow somewhat around the buds but not too close to avoid drying too quick. Ive only been curing for a day but its so smooth already. ive never tried anything like lowryder which is the makeup of this strain so il have to honestly rate it once cured for a week or so :) but until then i will say its been getting me quite stoned and couchlocked. i definitely harvested near the end of the harvest window. il add a final update once cured for a week so u guys know what this strain is like as a final product. Day 89 - 19/12/19 Ive cured for around a week and ive been smoking the buds and watching christmas movies alot! :'D The curing has developed a nice hit on the throat and more flavour along with burning better in joints and bongs :) ive smoked some exotic strains but i honestly feel this is among the best grown smoke ive had. it just feels so well grown with a smooth burn! i definitely harvested on the later side of the harvest window as buds have mostly amber pistils and smoking them gets me pretty stoned and sleepy! this is great as i have trouble sleeping and relaxing. i havent had this much sleep in a while. while i would say this is fairly average bud i still would rate it a solid 7, sure it might not have a strong exotic smell or flavour but it gets the job done well! and the high yield really impressed me. considering i need to be growing enough to stay medicated the 64g dry weight really made my day! Its very relaxing to know you dont have to struggle to get your medicine! I added a few photos of the best buds in the jar and im really impressed with myself for growing some fat buds! Have a good christmas folks and hope you enjoyed the diary, im gonna add it in to the newbie christmas draw so keep an eye out for it on there :) Finally i added a video of the little cayenne pepper plant featured in week 4 of this diary, its 78 days old now and is growing nice green waxy peppers :) I cant wait to makesome chilli flakes and some soup to keep me warm over the winter as soon as the peppers ripen! Take care folks and have a happy new year!

Dosido was a fun plant to grow. Short stock indica dominant plant. It finished in late September and was susceptible to mold and bud rot. Lost a number of colas to rot, approximately 100gs dry. Very potent strain with unique terp profile. I did get a few seeds in it. I didn't spot any naner but I have germinated a few of the seeds, all female so I am assuming it self pollinated. I would recommend growing this strain but be extra cautious outdoors.

Sa sent le cut elle est passer au violet avec le froid !odeur très forte!!!

Day 71. So its perfect example of : 1. Photos with flash , can make your plant looks healthy, but they are not ! 2. Never spray your plants in flower !!@@!!@! ( I did it straight before lights off. And its not the first time or tenth even ... ) Pushing girls on pure water and they are not so bad ... It means this strain is really forgivable with growers mistakes , i will regrow this strain in autumn or winter run 100%. Smell is amazing, Queen is packing good frost as for damaged plant, Margaret is a bit behind and starving asf ;))) Let's wait , weight, smoke and decide , was starvation a reasonable move or NOT ? ;)))) Day 75. Dead Queen is packing real frost, Margaret is just starting to show some ... Checked trichs, 30 clear, 70 milky on Queen and most milky on Margaret ( she has almost none, just starting to pop up and it was big surprise maturity of them ) Think to push them 8 more days and its time to start Exotic Seeds veg for big tent. This grow is last here , it will be my dry room and sometimes veg. Happy Growing !!!

Almost doubled her height this week since transplant! Lets see how she goes over the next few weeks.

Hello Fellow Growers ✌️🏻🍁 Not posted in the last week or so, The girls have been potted up into 18litre pots using Bio all mix. Few of them had low PPM 350/400s & some in 700s just before reporting which is low and showing N deficiency’s So once potted up I just give them a nutrient feed of bio grow. Since the soil is got nutrients in it am hoping this will sort it’s self out nutrient wise over the next week. Ripper seeds - dosido x purple punch - has got some mad deficiency I can’t keep happy always looks over watered Aiming to start flowering within the next week or so - since potting up the others I soon realised I was running out of space so I decided to chop a couple strains out. Thought of adding a humidifier into the mix but not sure as I was having over feeding issues - anyones thoughts on this? All auto flowering strains are starting to really get into flowering now. Pink runtz auto - has a lovely strawberries smell. Gorilla glue auto - isn’t looking to great, she’s got a slight deficiency. Blue cheese auto - is growing slow I’m sure this got over fed and just hadn’t bounced back yet. Amnesia haze auto - this is the tallest of them all she’s starting to pack on too. Any questions or if you see anything you notice off give me a message always down for some helpful tips. Peace 🙏🏻🍁

Oct.29 - We transplanted the girls into soil since they are moving into vegetation phase Nov.4 - Watered each plant 250mL, 0.25mL of each nutrient for each girl

Esta semana pasa a floracion y continua la estimulacion con delta 9 y mañana cambia el fotoperiodo a 12 /12
