I originally had another strain from 420 FastBuds and unfortunately one popped as some other plant I’d never seen before lol and the other never grew, couldn’t tell if I got a bad seed pack. so I discarded it and did blackberry for both as a fresh start.
So far they’ve had some steady growth and they’re coming along kinda slowly but I am going fully organic this run so that could be a factor. I asked about the color of leaves being a problem but most suggested it was mutation or nothing really, I have been keeping an eye and PH’ing my water along with dechlorinate it. Temps is steady and always humid with airflow
I have been just watering and letting them grow, I started training the tallest plant to bend sideways and allowing the undergrowth to catch up, just daily movements on that and that’s all
I’m just letting them stretch and doing some LST, the pigmentation kept going with this bigger plant but I see nothing wrong with it yet, planning on doing a top dress next week. No defoliating till I’ve seen a desired height cause I don’t want to stress her out just yet. (35 days after seed)
First week of flower and I noticed the plants started to show signs of pre flowering and I gave them a top off with some worm castings, Gaia green dry amendments, down to earth organic amendments and some fish shit for their watering. They seemed to respond well and bounced up with happiness. Just watering when dry and did a defoliation of about 4 leaves that touched the ground.
I trained them down to be more bushed out and watered with a PH of 6-6.7 and did a weekly water of Fish Shit. The humidity was at 57 then eased into a steady 52 for the rest of the week.
I just let them stretch and continued to do some LST along the way and watered once this week with Fish Shit per usual. I defoliated them lightly along the base and anything blocking prime sites. They’ve been otherwise happy
This week I noticed some more purple coming through on one plant and the other plant has different phenotype characteristics. Excited to try both out when the time comes. Nothing major this week just easy growing
The purple one has gotten so much fatter with its flowers but the other plant has a slow growth rate, not sure if it’s due to my fault but it seems to be doing okay. First problem I’ve noticed so far is a deficiency in Calcium. Started to see brown spots and decided to do a last top dress and made sure to add some gypsum.
This week I noticed the buds got more bigger but also the calcium deficiency has gotten worse and so to battle that I added gypsum to the medium and gave them two waterings with banana peels 🍌in the water ( I read banana peels give off Potassium, Phosphorus, Calcium, and magnesium) hopefully they bounce back and my yield isn’t affected too bad.
So this week last week I did 2 waterings of banana peels and then once with Fish Sh!t for more nutrient uptake to fix that calcium issue. I’ve been on top of PH and incorporated gypsum solution to my waterings but they don’t seem to want to uptake the nutes. It seems to be affecting my flower production so I might take an L on my thinner plant but the purple one is doing pretty good ✅ hopefully there isn’t more problems, if you have solutions, please I’m all ears!!
I’m thinking the girls need another week or two, getting very close but I do prefer indica effects so I’m waiting on that beautiful amber color yield might not be all there but quality is definitely showing 🔥💪 shoutout to 420 FASTBUDS for great genetics!
This is my second run with actual results and I’m pleased to say 420 FASTBUDS has great genetics and is a brand I’d love to utilize when practicing my craft. The purple plant
