FBT2212

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 22 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 went a little too aggressive and snapped main stem but it seems to be healing and recovering. Live and learn.

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 has been the smallest and most bushy of the three that were started at the same time. Genetics may be the main reason for this. Pictures are day 42 from seed.

Moved this plant from the front to the back to make it easier to finish LST and defoliating on two other plants. This plant is slightly smaller then 2211 and the node spacing is tighter. 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. I added black strap molasses and set dehumidifier to 60% this week. Will drop to 55% next week, and 50% for final weeks. Pictures coming soon

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.

This plant seems to be doing quite well and has faded less then 2211 and 2209. The buds seem to be stacking nicely and the trichomes are so abundant on this plant. Unfortunately I think I underfed this plant or gave too much fresh water between feedings last week and, as a result, I saw some yellowing of the remaining fan leaves and some dark purple and brown splotches forming on those leaves, but not nearly as bad as 2211 and 2209. I suspect that N and P are deficient. So, now I am scrambling to make sure this plant has enough nutrients to bulk up over the next 2 or 3 weeks and hope there are enough healthy leaves to do what needs to be done. Fingers crossed. There is also a chance that I have been experiencing some heat stress, but given that the bulk of the time my lights are on is during the night, I suspect this has been quite minimal. Pictures are day 63 from seed.

No real updates. This plant is starting to fade a little similar to the other three, but the trichomes are crazy on this one. All over the fan leaves and sugar leaves..... Lots of new pistils and stacking up alright. I lowered light a little to maximize bud growth for the last few weeks. Pictures are day 70

All good. Still stacking and swelling, on an all water diet and soon will be ready to cut down and dry. This plant has really taken off the last two weeks and is completely covered in trichomes. Excited to see this one finish up and cured.

This may be my favorite. 2212 is frosty as hell and smells great. I vaped fresh bud and it was surprisingly flavourful and not at all harsh. Something special here. 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.

In the end I managed to pull 115g off this plant. I tossed quite a bit of smaller stuff out of a hatred for trimming and this was not included in my total. This plant is super super frosty and likely would be great for extracts or hash. The smell is great and it vaped really nicely at all temps. I will try it again tonight and report back on effects. I am forgetting more and more and covid brain is not helping.
