Wow, now that was a hectic few days/weeks. Gutted that I had my dad looking after the final 2 weeks of this grow. They didn't quite finish out how I'd of liked but all in all I'm happy with the result. The end product is almost too big. The buds are a little fluffy but what it lacks in bag appeal it makes up for in smoke. This pheno is by far the strongest I've had (pre cure). Hung dry for 7 days then trimmed using the Trim Bag and a little hand fettle. I've smoked it twice now and both times its had me believing I'm in a cartoon or something πŸ˜‚ great creative head buzz followed by a strong body buzz. Lasts a good 2 hours and slopes off to a nice relaxed pain relieving body stone.

Nutrients
Always start my seedlings and cuttings with this. Provides a perfect initial nutrition for plants in coco. I give it them for the first 14 days.
I will continue to use this line and improve my growing skills and knowledge. I still need to perfect the ratios but it's a great line and barely no salt build up throughout.
Staple product in my setup. BioGreen lacks Nitrogen in the veg stage so I add this as abd when the girls tell me too.

If anyone is thinking of trying FastBuds Pinapple Express then my advise is definitely give it a go! Training / Topping / Scrog will really really improve your yeilds. The quality of my buds could have been so much better and I will come back and give it another go in the future. Grown under Maxibright 315w Lamps. Topped at the 3rd node, Scroged and cut away all the lower growth after 2nd week of flowering. Some defoliation/leaf tucking needed throughout the whole grow. Dont go too heavy on the nutes and she will really reward with the yeilds. Taste and smoke is unreal. Really smooth and sweet! I'll be smoking this for a very very long time. Now curing in 20 litre buckets with a XL boveda so I'm hoping the buds do fatten up a little.

Grow Questions

TheIceCreamParlourstarted grow question 5 years ago
Check out my week 7 update for more info. Only one plant in the tent affected so it's really bugging me?!? Thought it was overwatering. Left them 2 days between feeds and they are bone dry and pots are light. Any suggestions or could it just be a trait of the Pheno?

Hey there ICP, i took a look, looks like two minor things to me. First of all those leaves with the strange coloring are a sign of phosphorous (P) deficiency. Second the little spots on the leaves some very minor calcium deficiency. You can fix the P-def with a bit more P/K fert, calcium deficiency you can fix with cal mag (2-6 ml / liter) . If you do remedy these, they should actually recover in around a week's time . Hope this helps bro ! πŸš€

Hi what do you mean with bad germination rate=? how many /of how many... thy for answering

TheIceCreamParlour
@RastaMouse, I'm not too upset. I've restocked on seeds so I have 10 Six Shooter, 3 Gorrilla Glue, a BlackBerry and a Blue Dream. I've just germinated 6 of the Six Shooter seeds as my next grow is going to be an attempt at getting the magical 10oz per plant. Only 5 of those seeds germinated using FastBuds recommended method so I popped another one in 2 days ago and that has now germinated. Seems your always going to get 1 or 2 duds regardless what method you use.

Awesome looking journal and congrats on the good harvest! :D I was wondering how many lights you use, and how big your grow space is? It looks like you have the balance perfect seeing the canopy from week 8 onwards :) I'm thinking of switching over to them myself, so trying to find some good examples of people using them right.

@TheIceCreamParlour, thanks for getting back to me and appre iate the info! :) I prefer to train into a flat canopy like yourself due to the exact same problem, so will be giving the maxibright a a chance on my next run. Hope to see your next harvest soon! :D
TheIceCreamParlour
TheIceCreamParlour
@Tried_and_Tested, Hey man. My space is 1.5m x 2.4m. Only 1.5 high so I have to train them out flat like this to stop them getting too tall. Lighting is 4x maxibright 315w lamps. I also have an additional led LED I sometimes introduce towards the end of flower. My advice is grow any strain you like the look of. If you top it and train it correctly with adequate lighting then it will reward with great yeilds. Good luck!

very nice yield mate! looking forwards to growing my pineapple seeds next, especially after this diary. Shame about the buds being so fluffy but guess it is what it is :)

@TheIceCreamParlour, thats good to know as I run 600 hps in 1x1 so fingers crossed :) I already have the seeds sat waiting for their time to shine! The cookies are setting the bar to compete with currently ha!

TheIceCreamParlour
@rudiak, do it! I will be coming back to this strain very soon to have another go. As long as you keep her on minimum veg nutes and train her properly she will reward with very big yeilds. I'm not using very powerfull lights in my set up so I'm sure someone else could make an even better job.

looks like it could be potassium def and overfeed, did you fully flush the pot and give it a few days? I would drop your Hydro A and your Rooting additives. Once you have added your nutes, check TDS and dilute to 500/600 for a week, see if she recovers a bit.
TheIceCreamParlour
TheIceCreamParlour
@Inquisitor, I think your bang on. I've dropped EC to below 1.5 for their last week and will make sure each pot gets at least 15 litres each time I water them. Shoukd help clear them out before final flush.

@@Boxgrower, thanks dude. I had a bad run on my stardawgs and let them grow out of control. Decided to go with a scrog and now I'll never grow without it. Unbelievable how efficient this technique is in maximising grow space. Can't wait for the next round with 3x SixShooter and 3x Gorilla Glue.

Looking great!! A scrog really is the most efficient way of growing methinks.. All nice even size.. Very pretty and pleasing on the eye. Might have to break mine out again πŸ˜‹
TheIceCreamParlour
TheIceCreamParlour
@Dunk_Junk, yep I completely agree. Unfortunately I've just had to chop my 4 week old six shooters down as they have flowered too early. I've popped some more seeds in though and plan on doing the same scrog grow with all 6 plants. That really will be a spectacle!

@@@Spaceman, πŸ˜‚ no you cant! Good job the seed didn't sprout ehh. Thanks! Testament to FastBuds genetics really. Plus I've been letting the pots go 48 hours without water which I find helps build the root mass.

Thanks to the guys who answered my grow question. It was nute deficiency caused by overfertilisation. My EC pen was waaaaaay out and meant I'd unknowingly given them too strong a feed. Crazy considering the six shooter look fantastic and no burn at all. Just shows how strong that strain is.

@Inquisitor, yes I recalibrated the pen. I'm going to upgrade them after this grown.
