~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2204 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... πŸ€ͺ But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Vivosun Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 2/24- Well fam, today is the day for both of these gorgeous girls to go into the dark for 72hrs where the temperature will remain at 64℉ with a constant RH of 38-40%. The trichomes on the #1 were perfect with 90% of them a milky white. The #2's trichomes were only about 80% milky, with the remainder split between amber and clear which I'm fine with. I watered each one last time with .5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.7 @ 65℉ to ensure they remain hydrated for their time in the low RH (I'll check on them after 36hrs and water if necessary). After watering them, they were placed in 'Dark Jail'... see ya in three days! 2/27- Today the ladies were 'pardoned' from their jail term and they both look phenomenal! Both plants are covered in glistening trichomes and have a breathtaking, sugary sweet aroma coming from their flowers! 😍 After shooting some pic's of the girls, I removed all of their large shade leaves and then cut them off whole at their bases and hung them to dry in my drying room. They will spend 8-10 days drying and I monitor the environment in the room keeping the RH @ 50% for the first 24-36 hours to knock down some moisture, the raising it to 60% for the remaining drying time. The temperatures are maintained @ 62-64℉ and there is gentle air circulation which contributes to really excellent final results when the drying is finished. After they are done drying I'll trim them up and place the flower in jars to continue the curing process, which I like to take 1-3 months. (Jars are 'burped' on a regular schedule, twice daily for 10 days - daily for two weeks, then weekly for 4 weeks). It goes without saying that this grow was super fun! If I had to alter/change anything I did, it would be to NOT top this strain. To realize the full potential of this strain I recommend letting it grow naturally (maybe some LST to ensure light penetration) into it's 'Christmas tree' structure. Thanks again for checking out my work and for all the positive vibes! See you at the HARVEST! βœ‚οΈβš–οΈ *** I was trying out some different background colors to see how it affected the appearance of the plants. The black or blue background is definitely my choice... do you agree? Or do you prefer a natural background i.e. in the tent? πŸ˜ŽπŸ’š Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you've enjoyed this journey as much as I have! Grow Strong and may ALL your days be Blessed!β€οΈπŸ˜ŽπŸ€™
