Hi gromies Told you I would be back 😎😎😎😎 So the past week or so between harvesting, drying and jarring my Gorilla Cookies plus family life I have started my next adventure. 3 seeds all cracked and produced a healthy tap root, so far 100% germination rate with any fastbuds strains I have started. I used a mixture of germination methods and it never seems to let me down, glass of water to start off and when the seeds crack and show a tiny bit of the tap root I then use the paper towel method until I'm happy and put them in there home. Not much else to report, I will be back again when the ladies have been above the soil 1 week. Thank you for the support likes and follows in previous diaries it's much appreciated and if you would like to join me on this adventure feel free Big shout out to my gromies you know who you are!!!! @Fast_buds thank you for supplying the seeds @eleen from Marshydro thank you for supplying the light Peace people ✌️✌️✌️✌️

Hi gromies 7 days above the ground and have to say I'm happy with the progress, 3 ladies broke the soil and I have seen steady growth over the past week Had a slight accident I had my light at 25% at 18 inches away and cause some stretch but used the old bury the stem a little trick 😎😎😎 guess that's the joys of switching from HPS to LED 🤣🤣🤣 Turn the light up to 40% and lifted it up to 20 inches because i got paranoid about burning them and have hopefully found the sweet spot. As you can see all three ladies a doing well, one has a slightly bent stem, think it's due to me making my mistake but hopefully get her straighten out. Still feeding plain water until they are 2 weeks old then will start my nutrients schedule Thats it for this week folks, hope you have enjoyed my high update 🤣🤣🤣 sorry if I rambled on 🤣🤣🤣 As always thank you for visiting my diary, thank you for all the likes, follows, support and just generally visiting my diary. Big shout out to my gromies you know who you are!!!! Till next week people @eleen from MarsHydro & @Fast_buds thank you for the products

Hi peeps Hope everyone is safe and well, so we are 14 days above the dirt and I am very happy with the results, nice healthy green colour, good growth and just generally happy ladles. The two ladies in the centre and the right are growing the quickest, the third lady struggled a tiny bit at the start so it's two days behind it's sibling but holding her own and trying to catch up, but I messed about with my light and straighten her stem out so that's a plus 😎😎😎😎 Got fed their first feeding last night, back to using biobizz and I have started trying ecothrive biosys and it seems a few growers on here use it so would like to hear your thoughts on it, seem fine after 24hrs so fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞🤞 I'm still thinking whether to top them or not and it's driving me insane 🤣🤣🤣 Anyway that's it for this week gromies, thank you for the visits, likes, follows and encouragement means a lot trust me 😎😎😎😎 Big shout out to my brothers & sister you know who you are !!!!!! Thank you too @Fast_buds for supplying the seeds and to @eleen from Marshydro for suppling my current light

Hi gromies Hope every one is well, well this week has been a busy week for the ladies. I was able to top all 3 ladies just above the third node, the two biggest were topped at day 17 and the small ladies topped at day 15 (she is 2 days behind her siblings) All three ladies as you can see responded well to topping, but the biggest surprise is the smaller lady what a dark horse she turned out to be lol she is fairly catching up Gotta love an underdog 😎😎😎😎 The ladies got there 2nd feed of biosys (I feed it once a week with half strength nutrients) and I have to say I think it is great stuff my plants have never looked so healthy and happy and the growth they have had has been amazing i would definitely recommend. Either that or I'm high as fk 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Well that's it for this week folks, as usual thank you for your time, likes, comments, visits and follows its much appreciated 💚💚💚 To my family you know who you are 😎😎😎💚💚💚 Thank you too @Fast_buds & @eleen from Marshydro for supplying the products 😎😎😎

Hi everyone So another week has past and the ladies are really starting to take off I think they maybe starting to fit the flowering stretch 😎😎😎😎 Everything has been going brilliant and I'm really enjoying this grow (makes up for my last fk up🤣🤣🤣) All have responded very well to the topping and I have been snipping leaves off whenever they have been blocking a potential budsite The biggest surprise was the wee one she went from the smallest to the second largest 🤣🤣🤣🤣 talk about bat outa hell 🤣🤣🤣 Really impressed with the Ecothrive neutralise & Biosys I have been using, have definitely seen good recovery from the topping and defoliation doesn't bother them and growth have been good and healthy. Neutralise I have been using from the start, if have just been high and forgot to add it in, stuff does what it says my ladies haven't complained about their water yet 😎😎😎😎 So gromies thanks again for visiting my diary and joining me on my adventure, for sending love and follows etc I must be doing something right 🤣🤣 To my grow family on GD peace and love 💚💚💚 Now let's rock the fkn show 😎😎😎😎 @Fast_buds & @eleen from Marshydro thank you for the products you sent for this grow Till next time people 😎😎😎😎

Hey Gromies Another week has past and have to say enjoying every moment of it, I got my groove back!!!! As you can see two of the ladies have hit the stretch and the hedgehogs have decided to appear the lazy wee fks 🤣🤣🤣🤣 The other lady is a bit behind but fk it she is holding her own and looks pretty good 😎😎😎😎 All 3 get some defoliation when the need it other than that I'm happy with how they look Noticed a tiny bit of light burn on the new growth tips so raised my light slightly and backed the power back to 60%. Have to say the TS1000 is a strong wee light for the size of it. All 3 ladies starting to get thirsty now so had to up the amount of water I give them. Well that's it for this week folk's, thank you for the visits, comments, likes, support, follows and love its much appreciated 💚💚💚 To my grow family you know who you are 💚💚💚 Big thank you to @Fast_buds & @eleen from Marshydro for supplying their products

Hey Gromie's So another week has past and as @Cyrusdavirus would say the hedgehogs have came 🤣🤣🤣🤣 love it brother 😎😎😎😎 Well one lady has been flowering a week, the second has started and the third is thinking about it so think the will end up being a week apart when it comes to harvest time who knows but if that happens at least the other two will get to mature a bit longer while she finishes. Taking a leaf off here and there when I notice it is covering a budsite but other than that nothing to report To my family (you know who you are 😉😉😉) followers and people that drop by my diaries thank you for the love, support, comments and likes it's much appreciated Thank you @Fast_buds & @eleen from Marshydro for sponsoring this grow Till next week people 😎😎😎😎

Hey gromies Hope everyone is fine and well and doing what we do best, grow the best sh1t we possibly can 😎😎😎😎 Another week has past and all 3 ladies are in full flower mode and I'm loving it 😎😎😎 The two big ladies are impressive they really remind me of my afghan grow, the little lady is holding her own and she is a bit behind her siblings but she is impressing me too some nice bud sights Had to turn my lamp down to 50% again the ladies complained 🤣🤣🤣🤣 its definitely a great light for the size of it. All 3 are starting to stink more as the days goes on, some unique smells going on, one smells like oranges, one smells citrus and the other like some other sort of fruit then it. Could be banana 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thats it for this week folks, thanks for the visits likes, follows and support its much appreciated 😎😎😎😎😎 Thank you @Fast_buds & @eleen from Marshydro for sponsoring this grow, your products are great And to my grow family you know who you are 1 love 💚💚💚💚💚

Hi gromies Another week gone, they seem to be flying by but I'm not complaining 😎😎😎😎 So the ladies are building buds and starting to smell amazing, some strange scents coming from them considering being called banana purple punch 🤣🤣🤣 One smells like fresh oranges, the second smells of lemon and the third like a dank skunky smell so definitely a lot going on there. The two big ladies are budding away happy as can be starting to produce some nice frost, the smaller lady she is a mystery she is starting to produce some nice frost but her buds don't seem to be swelling and her pistils seem to be turning already, dont know what's going on but certainly interesting to watch. Nothing else to report guys just basically doing the best I can until harvest time. Thats it for this week folks thank you for the visit and I will be back next week 😎😎😎😎😎

Hi guys Another week past and closer to the finish line. Haven't been paying much attention to the ladies, life throws ya curve balls and I'm dealing with one at the moment As you can see the ladies are stacking ok, bit slower than all my previous strains but they are holding their own Have to admit the look rough but fk it I have more important things at the moment Have to say they are really fussy and trust me I have tried. Dimmed lights didn't like it Brightened lights didn't like it Moved light closer and then higher didn't like it Feed nutrients didn't like it Flushed them didn't like it They have had me on my toes, but I thought fk it my attention is needed elsewhere so cranked the light up to 75% and closed the tent 🤣🤣🤣 They will be fed and thats it till harvest time 😎😎😎 Thanks for visiting growmies big shout out to my grower family 💚💚💚 Till next week

Hi growmies Another week down and another week closer to the end. All 3 ladies are strange ones, they all grew nice and fine until flower then boom that's when sh#t went sideways lol from then on in no matter what you done they didn't like it, so excuse the yellowing / fkd leaf pictures I'm trying but they are giving me a run for my money 😎😎😎 Started the flush on the wee lady and by the looks of her she might be ready to come down this weekend, she never bulked up and when her buds grew to a certain size she started to mature 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ The other 2 big ones have produced some nice buds and I think should be ready in 2 maybe 3 weeks For what they lack in beauty the frost on them is insane 😎😎😎😎 and the smell is strong, the smell normally lingers in the hall for 15 - 20 mins, these girls stink it up for about an hour to hour an a half 😎😎😎😎 Their smoke better be worth it 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks again for the visits, likes, comments of support and follows much appreciated Love to the grower family 😎😎😎💚💚💚 Till next time 😎😎😎

Hi guys So we have came to the end of another grow, tonight will be their last watering/flushing before the chop Friday or Saturday night It has been a challenging one but fk it if every grow was perfect it would be boring 😎😎😎😎 All ladies have had a 2 week flush by the time this Saturday comes, dont normally flush but thought fk it let's give it a go Snipped a small bud of each plant about a week ago just for a wee try and have to say they really impressed me the strain hits like a fkn train, can say much for taste etc because it was fast dried but at least I will have a surprise when I chop, dry and cure not to mention the have matured another week so should hopefully be stronger Thanks again ladies and gentlemen and 1 love to the grower family, next time you hear from me the should all be down and I will update dry weight and smoke report when things are done right Till next time 😎😎😎😎
