Germination
3 years ago
Germinated in 2 days, in the ground by day 3 and pictures of seedling are day 7. Coming right along. This is a genetics test for @Fastbuds. I grew 4 plants over the winter and they absolutely killed it. Everyone who has sampled these bud has loved it and I can't wait to try these new ones out. Best genetics I have grown so far. Might stick with this brand going forward

Everything is good. Switched them to a 19:6 light schedule with the dark period during the hottest point in the day. These are growing in a small shed so ambient temperatures play an important role and light and exhaust cycles have to be adjusted to maximize physical variables. Lights are set to 30-40% and around 30 inches above the soil. Humidifier keeps RH around 55%. They seem to be doing really well and are taking off.

They are looking great, growing well. I gave them an extremely small shot of nutrients and the leaves are darkening a bit so will slack off till week 4. Pictures are day 25 from seed.

Started LST this week. This plant is doing amazing and is considerably bigger then the same aged plants grown last winter. Much easier to maintain ideal conditions during the spring and summer. Expecting some nice buds by the end of this grow. Pictures are day 28 from seed

I am now increasing my nutes as I move into flowering. Pistils have emerged at nodes but not at cola apices. I finished LST this week. I noticed some yellow tips on newest growth and I know my nute regime has been low, so assuming a deficiency. Boron, P or K likely. Aiming to correct and slowly increase as I go into full flowering. Pictures are day 35 from seed.

Coming right along. I upped nutes last two weeks but think I am still safe from over feeding. I have finished LST and need to defoliate more this coming week. This plant seems a little bushier and has way more leaves then say 2211. Pictures are day 42 from seed.

Moved this plant from the back to the front to make it easier to finish LST and defoliating. This plant is a wee bit smaller then 2211 and 2212, but was a hell of a lot bushier. I had to really trim off a lot of fan leaves and small branches/buds that would get very little light if I left it alone. I rather get fewer dense buds then more fluffy buds. Anyway. No signs of deficiency or over feeding. No signs of under or over watering. Everything seems good. Some slight red on stalks and petioles, so slight under feeding of P or K. Humidity is hovering between 55 and 65 which I am okay with for now. Pictures are 49 days from seed.

Another great week. The plants are finally showing some deficiencies....going to have to figure this one out. Some yellowing of lower leaves...nitrogen. Some small brown spots on new leaves. Cal/mag, other??? Need to look more closely at the spotting and other features showing. I know this is not a pH issue cause they have been fed very little overall with lots of fresh balanced water inbetween feedings so I am going to increase the nutes a little this week. Anyway....loving this grow. Tried to trim a little more leaves and tried to make sure small branches not receiving light are removed.

I went a little hard with pure water early last week in preparations for a week vacation away, which likely washed out or utilized a bunch of nutrients. Anyway, a bunch of fading developed on the fan leaves and the stems are quiet red. The leaves have a yellowing all throughout and black and brow spots. Two plants are suffering pretty badly and this could be nutrient burn or P deficiency depending on what resource you read. I feel like I have kept the nutrients fairly low this grow and suspect that I am seeing a P deficiency across all three plants. I am going to keep a weak supply of bloom and micro in the feedings for the rest of this week and see how they do. Hoping to see some major bulking and a slower fade this week. Pictures are day 63 from seed

This plant is doing good. I think all of my plants were underfed this summer and I tried to give them a decent feeding a few days during week 9 and will continue feeding in week 10. 2209 and 2211 have faded fast and have stacked well this week and are still putting out new pistils. I am going to just do a one week flush, where the nutes have been so low through this grow. This worked well for the Strawberry Gorilla during the winter grow. Trichomes are very cloudy on this plant but few amber. Will let this go for at least two more weeks. Pictures are day 70

So, I took these plants from seed to harvest over 88 days. Maybe a little longer then some would go, but I am glad I did. I underfed for most of this grow, but upped the nutrients in the last 3 to 4 weeks and this resulted in an explosion of growth all throughout the last two weeks when they were being fed water. I wanted to keep going but I was happy with everything and don't want to risk issues developing from growing too long. They had 24 hours of darkness, have been chopped and are now drying in the dark at 55%RH. I am ecstatic that @fast_buds selected me to test their genetics and I think they have some winners here. Hopefully I can continue to partner with them on future genetics tests and show the versatility of their strains. Next up will be my 4 favorite plants from the last two grows and I am going to feed them a little more consistently to see how things turn out.

I hit around 100g of dried buds weighed, but I did end up disposing some smaller hard to trim stuff that was not weighed, so i suspect that this is in line with most of my most recent grows which are between 110-150g per plant. After almost two weeks drying and months curing, all the fan leaves have fallen off with the slightest touch. I enjoy the smell with a strong earthy pine smell coming through, with a bit of a sour kick at the end. Maybe some herbal tones. Reminds me a little of a White Widow that I grew once.
