Hello all, So this is the start of my fasyberry grow. The fastberrys are in a light mix of soil. The left one is FB1 and the right one is FB2 The lights I am using are 2 Vero29 COB 50 watt and a chinese ufo light 150 watt. Its an interresting grow as the Pineapple I am growing received in the 3th week the COB lights and it was preforming way better. Lets see how it grows :)

Bam entering week 2! The FastBerry looks abit burned.. I kinda need to admid I gave it abit of Bio Growth 1... Kinda stupid as the plant is not ready for it yet. Anyways the FB recovered and is going good. Faster then my PE has todo with the COB I am using, I am very happy I made the decision to make them :) I reduced the nutrients just to some X-Rooting, will be adding more when the plant has some more leaves. I am also adding the nutrients schedule I will be using, The first week I am only using X-Rooting as the rest will be to early I think. Update day 12: FB is going good, not much to say good development

Hi all, Entering week 3, the fastberrys are getting some more leaves so it will go quickly soon :) I am adding the rest of the nutrients it should get to the water as its big enough to handle it. Update: Picking up growth, all going good, the leaves on PE1 abit hanging because I was abit late with the water I think.

The fastberrys are starting to stretch, the FB1 is 36 cm and the FB2 28. The FB1 seed was half a day earlier above the soil. In my opinion the lowest branch of the FB1 is stretching abit weird but it is growing higher now, instead of sideways. Lets see how big they are in the next update :)

Hi all, I had an intruder in my tent😱do not know how that bastard got there. It was an caterpillar, when I was looking at the plants yesterday I noticed that 1 leave on the FB1 was totally destroyed as in eaten. it also ate a smaller leaf, luckly enough it was on the bigger leaf when I pulled the leaf of so everything is fine now 😎 I looked if he had some friends at his party but that was not the case. I have not killed it but set it free in my garden! The FB1 was attacked, but doesnt look like its caring that much For the rest it looks like its going well its stretching and were entering flowering. had a good stretch of 20cm in a week. as they are both the same size now at 56 cm

Hi all, The fastberry is going very well especially the right one. they stopped growing and are working on those buds. As you can see the left one is further then the right one. some days ahead I guess. The Pineapple express is harvested and moved to the drying pot so more space for the girls :) Left will be FB1 and right FB2

Hi all, Entering week 8 and it looks like I need to give them some more nutrients as I made the dosis smaller because of the yellow tips on the leaves, but now I see that the plants get to less especially the right one. So I will be switching back to the normal schedule for a week. I removed the chinese ufo light as the pineaplle express is done and it was not adding alot. The left one seems to be quite ahead but the amount of buds is not that much and they are also not that big. The right one is going well just needs some more nutriens but that is only for a day now, the buds are swelling quite nicely.

Fastberry 2 is still getting nutrients as I gave it to less, but will stop giving her nutrients in a couple of daysoverall going very good, smell is amazing when I open the tent. Temperature is also better since the ufo is removed

Hi all, So yesterday I took FB1 down, it is the smaller one of the 2, I need to admit I think it received not that much light because of the Pineapple I had in there aswell and it was 3 weeks ahead. The total wet weight of the FB1 is 92 gram, So i am hoping for 20 gram when its dry. Fastberry2 needs abit more time as it still has white hairs some more days. it has nice amounts of bud quite decent formed very dense. Will update when it's down. Update 14-7-2017 Took FB2 down 184 gram exactly twice the amount of fb1. Very happy with the results very sticky and dense! Smells like heaven😍 When haning in the dry bucket the one with the paper is FB1 and the one without is FB2

can we get a whoop whoop, the grow went amazing, especially for the FB2. The smell was amazing when the girls were flowering, a treat had a small test and the taste is great The FastBerry is easy to grow and a strong girl, she had an invader on her but she recovered nicely. in total 55 gram harvested 20 from FB1 and 35 from FB2. Very sticky buds can't wait to test them when they are cured. Ofcourse I already had a small test, it was very nice, got very relaxed. @GrowDiaries I am a bit off on the total gram per watt because 55gramm on100 watt is 0.55 but because I filled in 2 plants it went down to .28 gram per watt. but it's not that my total consume has changed when I add a plant ;) maybe it's me but then I would need to fill in 50 watts, so the question should be total consuming power per plant Anyways very happy with the results!

I have to say it's looking really great buddy. Fantastic color and the density of your buds looks perfect. Keep it up mate :D

Looking good pal , got some nice colours going ! ....... see a few people talking about the fan leaves ......... might be down to over trimming , fan leaves are the solar panels of the plant , if you cut too many , the remaining fry trying to soak up the light .

So happy with Fastberry 2. 184 gram dry, so together with the pineapple and the fastberry1 what were in the tent I am hitting 100 gram dry. Meaning 1 gram per watt! (dryed) Those cob lights really rock! if you go led COB led is the way to go!
the end.
