Good start for this little girl.
Germinated in paper towel for around 48h and above soil within 24h
Soil is damp enough to skip the 1st 2 weeks of watering, I find it better to let the roots search for moisture as the soil dries and add tiny doses, rather than over watering, which seems to happen way too easily with my seedlings. The surface dries fast and also helps avoid the damping off that I've had some trouble with and added a sprinkle of cinnamon to help with that too.
Nothing much to report this week. Good progress, she's happy and doing well, so so am I.
Still no watering. There is more than enough moisture in the soil to keep her happy.
I was away and missed a week, but she's doing well and grown nicely despite the heat and low humidity.
Some pre flowers showing up at the end of the week
Another good week, lots of stretching and flowering kicking in properly now.
Some small lower branches, so will get a few little nugs on my Christmas tree.
Another good week and nice progress despite being a bit on the hot and dry side.
She's filling out nicely and closing those inter nodal gaps fast and those amazing Tangie terps are starting to smell so good!
Another great week, she's bulking up and stacking well. The smell is starting to get a little stronger and love it so much. This one a little more citrus than before.
One of my favorites and always happy to have more of her.
Another good week again, she's fattening up nicely and starting to really get her stink on.
About 2 weeks or so left, so this will be my last week of feeding and will start the flush next week.
A good week again, she's fattening up nicely and the stink is getting so strong. This one is more on the citrus side, but still that amazing tangy loudness. No mistaking this one, she shouts from the back and just carrying the pot fills my face with the most amazing smell.
I gave her 1 last feed at the beginning of the week and then started the flush, not long to go.
This season I've tried to stay away from buying bottles and nutrients and have made a few ferments and sourced as much as I can myself from around me. Not only is it cheaper, but it's helping me understand more about what the plant needs. After just scratching the surface of natural farming and seeing the results, I'm diving in much more solidly this coming season and have spent most of my winter preparing a nice variety of things for my babies.
Another great week, she's fattening up well and smell is getting really strong. Any time I'm near her she's shouting. Love this strain!
Looks like she's starting to wind down and will chop toward the end of next week, so next update will be her done.
An easy girl to grow. One of my favorites and this one was more on the citrus side than some of the others I've grown. Both smell and taste amazing. The flavor is unmistakable and strong tangy citrus.
The sativa dominance makes it a great daytime smoke and a lot of sativas make me feel uneasy and a little anxious, but non of that with this girl. I will have at least one of her in my garden every season, I love it.
No Dry Weight option in the diary for some reason. She was 22.22g. Not the most, but very happy to have a top up.

@HirdoWeirdo, thanks, she is amazing. One of my favorites from Fastbuds, would definitely recommend trying her if you get the chance. Terps are so strong and delicious. 😋
Haha no, not yet. I'm not sure if you like them or not, so I'll have to post a bunch more to see. hahaa 🙏
@SonomaSungrown, Thanks!
Haha I wish iPhone's portrait mode set my lights up and process for me :P
I'm a professional photographer and usually use 2 or 3 flashes to light my images. The first few weeks I normally only use natural light or a bounced flash.
When they flower I pretty much set up a studio and each shot is anywhere from 10 to 50 shots focus stacked.
Beautiful grow!
Question for you:
What else, if anything, are you using in your mix besides perlite and coco?
castings?
Really cool seeing someone using only FPJ FFJ and LAB.
I have dabbled a bit but never had the confidence to give it an all-knf go.
Any advice as to your inputs?
Thanks so much!
@SonomaSungrown, Thank you 🙏
Castings, compost, a little premixed soil with lots of amendments, crushed eggshells, gypsum, rock dust, ash...
Thanks, that was my goal and was the first season I was almost 100% natural home made inputs and went better than ever.
Mainly used the Kikuyu FPJ and collected rain water for veg. I switched to FFJ too soon on some, so will wait a little longer on that.
Made aloe FPJ and added that and the LAB to some water and now and again let it sit for a day and got some yeast growing and used that. Don't let it sit longer than 2 days or it starts to go anaerobic and stink. I've also been doing more foliar feeds and that seems to be helping a lot with health and keeping pests away.
I'm still learning and just experimenting, but after this season, there is not much I will be buying to feed them anymore.
Copper Soap for WPM is about the only thing I use on my plants that I buy.
So good to see your results in low humidity and high temp. Did you take any daytime heatstress or humidity issue prevention? I'm in desert arid area with as low as 10% and now still 40 degrees and germinated fastbuds amnesia and lemon ak today.
