Germination
2 years ago
I'm growing a strain from Fast Buds for the first time, very interested to see the results. Also using new soil, which is Canna terra proffesional plus. Seed's been soaking in water for 24h and then put into soil. The plant emerged from the ground after 2 more days, as expected. Baby looking good and healthy.

Not a great start. Baby's growing fast, but there's brown spots on leaves, not sure what's going on.

I think this might be a bit of overwatering and the leaves are growing in a bit weird. It will grow out of this just need to watch how much water the seedling is getting as its root structure is so small its easy for it to become water logged in the soil.

It's not the prettiest flower, but at least it's healthy, actually it grows faster than expected and could be topped above 3rd node on 13th day of grow. I have been told the leaves grow crooked like this because overwatering, for now it seems new leaves aren't affected as much. We'll see what future has in store for this girl.

She's grew a lot this week and there's already signs of pre-flowering. Some of the leaves still grow weird, I'm thinking it might actually be genetics, but who knows. Also older leaves look very dark, might be too much N in the soil.

Lots of new growth this week and she's beginning flowering. There's some signs of nitrogen toxicity, that's why I haven't been adding nutes so far, hoping the issue will get resolved in coming days.

This girl has some issues since I started growing her, had to take of bunch of burnt leaves, but I think whatever was causing this pretty much stopped progressing by the end of week. Beside that I noticed smaller side branches are much more pale compared to main colas. Hoping to get some more stretch next week.

Things not looking the best. Looks like I was starving this lady, I've increased frequency of feeding and will see what happens in few days, hopefully I can still salvage some decent smoke out of this.

Another week and still ain't swelling, which makes me start to worry. She has few more weeks so there's still some hope though, but I ain't expecting plentiful harvest.

The plant was harvested by the end of 13th week of growth, total 90 days from seed to harvest. As expected the yield wasn't that great, it was less than half of what I usually get, but the buds themselves look and smell amazing. Made some dumb rookie mistakes in the early growth and flowering, but at least it's something to learn from.
