Started germinating Tropicana cookies & Orange Sherbet F1 FAST FLOWERING from Fast Buds, germinated in 24 hours, planted into jiffy starters & sprouted within 24 to 48 hours. So far I've been happy with Fast Buds genetics 100% success rate, 6 out 6 germinated FF1 & Auto's. Looking forward to see how these fast flowers go? This FF1 grow will start off my perpetual grow cycle again.

Hi Gromies, on day 8 I transplanted the seedlings into their final 15 ltr homes & set up the automated watering system, I also started them on low dose nutrients. They are under 200watts of light, which may seem a little to much, however they are sharing the veg tent with a couple of Auto's, & that's why the wattage is that high otherwise I would start them on less & build it up gradually. It doesn't seem to be affecting them, actually the Tropicana cookies seem to really like it. All is going well. Thanks for checking out my diary & please give me a like & comment, so I can progress from apprentice & I will also find time to visit your diaries as well. Thanks & love to all my fellow Gromies

These plants have had great growth, started mainline training, all plants had 6 nodes then we're topped back to the fourth, kept next set of branching underneath to create a 4 way manifold instead of 2.

Since last topping, they grew 4 nodes, I topped them back to the 3rd node & removed the second node , & left the first node. They were topped a 3 Rd time giving me 32 colas per plant. Maybe I got a bit carried away!😊👍

Moved these girls into the flowering tent on Tuesday 12-9-23. 7 weeks of veg . I originally grew them to the 6th node & topped them back to the 4th node, I kept the 2 branches directly beneath the topped branches, giving me 4 branches in a + shape. Grew each branch to the 4th node & topped back to the 3rd node, I then removed 2nd node branches leaving the 1st. & 3rd nodes on each branch giving me 4 colas per branch, 16 total. They grew a few more nodes & were topped for the 3rd & final time. 8 colas per branch , 32 total. On the 1st topping instead of Lst bending & tying, I super cropped the branches, to give a stronger structure & to help hold shape. Had to start flowering them under 600watt H.P.S as my Fc-e 4800 l.e.d. is still being used to finish off an Auto grow, then I'll swap the light over to the l.e.d. for these girls. I would have posted more pics but for some reason it drops out & says it can't complete last action due to low memory??? That's never happened before, anyone else come across this??? As it seems to be the site not my device?

Hi gromie's, well these girls are going great! They really are fast! They have gone through a crazy stretch, guess a lot of that is due to the H.P.S. light. Already producing budlets everywhere! I have added a viper spectra xs 1500,.150watt L.E.D. light to the grow, it's hanging over Tropicana cookies pheno1 & Orange Sherbet pheno 1 . Now at 750watts, & they are also starting to get a bit frosty 👍

Hi gromie's, these girls are just powering on! Continue to stack up, producing really nice big dense sticky buds😋👍 starting to get really frosty as well, leaves are sugar coated. Getting a pretty intense smell inside the tent from the 2 different strains. Orange sherbet pheno 1 & pheno 2 are completely different from each other it's like night & day difference! Pheno 1 is short & compact with tight internodel growth , even though she is half the height she has the same amount of nodes & branching as pheno 2 which has grown more like the Tropicana cookies. Have done some lollipoping , removed all the growth on the bottom 1/4 to bottom 1/2 of the plants to remove popcorn, airy small buds. 👍

Have been flowering these girls under 600w HPS as my usual flowering light. ( Mars hydro Fc-e 4800 480w L.E.D.) was being used for an Auto grow I was doing in my veg tent, & i was going to change them now the Auto grow is finished. However the plants are to tall & due to the size of the light I can't get it above the canopy due to exhaust fan & filter, so since there going so we'll with the current lighting I left it but added the Fc-e to the back of the tent with the aim of getting more light to the under growth, it's set at 50%. Buds are really stacking up especially Tropicana cookies pheno1 which has produced some big dense buds that have stacked right down the branch! Orange sherbet pheno 2 has grown some really big very dense top buds. Orange sherbet pheno 1 grew completely different with very tight internodel spacing buds stacking right up the branch forming big tight colas, very sticky & smelly.

Hi Gromie's week 6 & all has been going well. Really sweet dank smell between the two strains when I open the tent. Buds are going great really stacked up, big & dense. Tropicana cookies pheno1 is absolutely awesome, growing some big solid nugs, however pheno 2 buds are half the size as pheno1, still very dense. Orange sherbet going good, pheno1 at the front, pheno 2 at the back growing really big dense buds on top. Trichomes are very cloudy starting to get close to harvest. Have taken clones to do another run of these, & WOW couldn't believe how quickly they developed roots. Started to see first signs of roots after just 5 days!!! Some had developed roots in just 8 days In my Seahawk Cloner.

Week 7 & everything going well. I've basically left these girls alone since putting them into flower apart from some lollipoping & removing the large shade leaves this week. Some times I get a bit carried away with defoliation, to much & to often, so I've left them alone a bit this time. Also they went through a big stretch at beginning of flowering & there's a bit of space between nodes & not really bushy anyway. It's been a pretty cruisy grow, been a bit lazy & checked on them every 2nd day instead of every day. PH has been steady at 5.7 & EC rises from 2.4 to around 4 by the 2nd day (hot temps) add water to reduce EC back to 2.4. They certainly are fast Flowering with both Orange sherbet about ready as well as Tropicana pheno 2, very cloudy trichomes, calyx swelling & closing up. Orange sherbet has a really strong sweet sherbet smell, pheno 2 has some really big dense top buds! The 2 pheno's grew completely different from each other . Same with Tropicana cookies, pheno1 has really big solid buds & pheno 2 buds are half the size but still nice & dense. Took clones of these for my next run.(grew roots with in a week) but I'm only going to grow Tropicana pheno1 & Orange sherbet pheno 2 due to the way they grow & bud structure & size. Going to put these girls into 48hr darkness period & flush before harvest.

Fast buds claims around 28% THC & a flowering time of 6-7weeks, not far off I harvested on day 52 beginning of week 8, some really potent, dank bud. They went through a crazy stretch when flipped to flower that was over after a week, then started producing pistills & budlets around day 12! Quite quick . Phenotype's grew a little different in terms of bud size & structure. Really easy to grow,had no issues with them, i can definitely recommend them, in fact I've taken clones to do another run. Overall quite happy with the genetics from Fast buds.👍

Overall easy strain to grow the 2 phenotypes grew completely different to each other but both produced some nice dank potent buds in just 52 days. Flushed them with green planet rezin & plain water for last 2 days & put them into 48 hr darkness period before harvesting. Slow dried in tent at between 20 & 22° & 45% & 60% RH for as little as 12 days before trimming, weighing, ENJOYING & putting into grove bags to cure.
