Fast Buds Grow - Apricot, Amnesia Haze, AK, Gelato, Girl Scout Cookies
Hey everyone!
This is my first time doing diary! I’ve grown few plants in last couple of years and I want to make a diary for this 3rd grow.
Will try to be active as possible and add images and videos. All the feedback is appreciated!
GROW INFO:
Trying 5 Fast Buds strains.
Soil is Canna Terra Professional Plus - I’ve used normal Canna Terra in the past and it worked well. This soil shouldn’t need nutes at least 2-3 weeks for the plants, so I will be observing impact of this soil.
Later in the flower will use Advanced Nutrients Grow, Micro, Bloom with some additional nutes.
Thanks and happy growing!
They were topped on Day 14.
They are looking good and growing vigorously.
Will start giving nutes from 3rd week. Apricot is looking pretty big for now.
Hi everyone!
The plants are going nicely. All of them were topped on Day 14. Started giving 2ml of Advanced Nutrients Grow, Micro, Bloom - They took it very well.
Amnesia Haze - I'm going to mainline this plant with 2 branches only
Apricot - Got stretched more than other plants, so I started doing LST on Day 16.
Other plants - I'm going to mainline and test with 4 and 6 branches. For now, Im gonna let the branches grow a bit to maintain even canopy.
Temp doesn't go up more than 27-28 which is perfect at day and at night, goes down at 21 around.
Humidity day 55%, night 75%.
Happy growing!

UPDATE Day 18
- Did some adjustments on the LST on day 17 and day 18.
had a surprise guest in one of the pots but now we are good (the video) 👽
Hey hey!
We are officially in the Week 4 and some of the plants already started preparing to start flowering.
Did some defoliation on Day 21 on the bottom of the plants to improve airflow and also defoliated some bigger leaves that were blocking lights for the bud sites. I also try to tuck the leaves if possible without cutting. Also adjusted LST for some plants.
Apricot and AK started to show some white hairs on Day 23, which is super early but what can I do 😁
Amnesia, GSC and Gelato are still in veg as of Day 25.
---
Its getting hot (29c~) but still manageable for now.
---
Day 25 - light defoliation and LST
---
Day 27
Gelato - LST, defoliation and lollipopping
Apricot - Streching, no training, week 1 of bloom
AK - Streching, no training, week 1 of bloom
GSC - defoliation
Amnesia - LST & defoliation
---
Happy Growing!!
Hey hey!
My plans are looking healthy and they have vigorous growth.
Apricot & AK started their flowering at Day 23 and they stretched like crazy, I did LST and main-lining but they still went out their way.
Girl Scout Cookies started flowering on Day 25-26, and have been stretching since. I didn't touch Apricot, AK and GSC much when they started flowering, will defoliate once they will end their 2nd week of flowering.
Amnesia Haze and Gelato only started showing signs today, today is 31st day and I have very high hopes that these 2 ladies will yield great. Did some defoliation on the Gelato, I cut down the leaves that were blocking the light.
They were being watered with around 2L water every 2 days, but now Im increasing volume from 2L to 3L for each.
Thanks for reading and happy growing!
Hey hey!
My plants are in week 6 and happy than ever!
Amnesia Haze and Gelato both started to flower on Day 33-34, so they started to stretch now. I gave them slight defoliation before they started flowering.
Today (6 Aug) is 37th Day for the plants. Apricot and AK started flowering 2 weeks ago on Day 23 and I haven't touched them much since. I slightly defoliated and lolipopped them today to improve airflow and light penetration.
In 2-3 days, Girl Scout Cookies will also finish its 2 week transition period and I will defoliate and lollipop lower small branches and big leaves.
I've been giving them Advanced Nutrients ph Perfect Grow, Micro, Bloom 2ml/L. Will start giving Big Bud to the Apricot, AK & GSC.
Happy growing!!
Hey everyone!
My plants are already in the week 7 and they are going very well!
Apricot, AK and GSC are in the 3rd week of bloom, I started giving them Big Bud and Bud Factor X and then I also added B-52 and Tasty Terpenes.
Gelato and Amnesia Haze are still stretching. Amnesia has 2x size stem comparing to others and structure is quite bushy.
Defoliated Gelato on Day 45, around 12 days in bloom, will observe how this will affect plant.
Will defoliate Amnesia in few days when I will see that its not stretching anymore.
Will provide better photos for the next week.
happy growing!!!
Hey!!
We are officially in the mid week 8, and the plants are looking fantastic!
Apricot -- is ripening very fast, the buds are getting dense and its getting hard for its stem to hold the branches :D Will need some stakes to help it a bit. I think it will be ready for Week 10.
AK -- is smallest in size, but has bigger buds than other plants. the buds are frosted with trichomes. I think AK is around week behind than Apricot. So probably at Week 11 it will be ready.
Girl Scout Cookies -- is one of the biggest plants in size, has lots of bud sites and it is growing day by day. I think GSC and AK will finish around same time.
Gelato - Around same size as AK, big has more bud sites. I will defoliate it tomorrow by selectively removing some of the bigger and older leaves. Gelato is week behind AK, so probably it will take more than 11 Weeks.
AND MY FAVOURITE!!!
Amnesia Haze - This seed was amazing from the start. It started flowering very late, around when it was 35 days old, and it is stretching still! Its been 54 days today and the plant is still gaining height. It has biggest main stem and has most colas and have very nice bushy structure. Will defoliate once it will finish the transition fully. I have feeling that this plant will need more than 100 days to harvest.
Im giving Amnesia Haze only base AN nutes:
Advanced Nutrients Grow, Micro, Bloom - 2ml/l
and rest of them are taking:
Advanced Nutrients Grow, Micro, Bloom - 2ml/l
Big Bud - 2ml/l
B52 - 2ml/l
Tasty Terpenes - 2ml/l
Bud Factor X - 2ml/l
Thanks for reading and happy growing!!
Hey!
We are now in Week 9!
Apricot is nearly finished, checked trichomes and it looks milky, will try to capture photos for next week before harvest.
GSC and AK are both close, not nearly finished but I think they will take 7-10 days more.
Gelato is still in mid-bloom and bud sites are getting stacked.
Amnezia Haze just finished transitioning to Bloom, it took her 3 weeks or so :O but in exchange, the main stem is minimum twice as big as the other plants and the plant itself is huge.
WATERING:
- Im watering them with around 4-5 liters every 2 days. I have small amount of runoff, around 500 ml.
NUTES
- Late Bloom - Apricot, AK, Girl Scout Cookies - Advanced Nutrients ph Perfect Grow, Micro, Bloom & B52, Tasty Terpenes, B52, Overdrive, Bud Factor X - 2ml/L
- Mid Bloom - Gelato, Amnezia Haze - Everything same except I dont give them Overdrive yet.
TRAINING
- Tried to LST Amnezia Haze to give plant more light to more bud sites.
Thats all for Week 9!
Happy Growing!!!
AK and Gelato are close to finish, around 7 days left.
Gelato is far behind, probably will take 3 weeks more at least.
Amnezia Haze is huge, she already reached her maximum height and now bud sites are stacking, she is in around week 4 of bloom, probably will take more than 3 month to finish.
She did start flowering on Day 23-24 and was in perfect state to harvest on Day 65.
I would probably give root and stem nutes early in the veg to make it stronger to hold the heavy buds. It almost broke down bc of this.
Everything else was perfect, she didn't have any problems throughout the grow.
Amnezia is getting very big. I increased her water volume to 8 liters in 2 days, also increased the dosage of base nutes from 2 to 3 and then to 4.
Gelato has very dense buds already
I was checking trichomes daily to wait for the sweet spot to harvest, but also cut few buds for testing purposes before harvesting :D harvested on Day 77, after flushing twice on Day 75 and Day 73.
This plants' size is crazy. Tied her down a bit because it was touching the lights already and I can't take the lights any more higher. This plant is my personal favorite
Week 13 - We nearly finished! (Not the Amnesia Haze tho).
Had some personal life things going so I didn't pay attention that Gelato was sitting in the nute water for quite some time so leaves started to deform and I think root rot started. She is nearly ready so no worries. Flushed on Day 95, will cut on Day 96 or 97 (if my patience will be there). She has a very lovely smell.
Amnesia Haze - She need around 3 more weeks, pistils started to turn brown so I started giving it Overdrive. Her biggest colas are still growing in height, I have lights to close to the plant but I dont have more ceiling to increase the height of the lights. it is what it is.
This is by far biggest Autoflower i've grown in soil. looks amazing. I dont have Bud Factor X anymore and I think I will buy it, trichome production is not very great.
Thank for reading and happy growing!!
Okay where do I start from…
In last 2 weeks, I managed to:
- heat stress this plant
- potassium defficiency due to high amounts of water given
- nute burn
- main biggest colas started to get mold.
The story is that she is 104 days old already, I felt like she needed more feeding so I increased nute and water dosage. Also couldnt control humidity in the box and it went up to 75% for few days and thats where the problems started.
I reduced water amount from 8L to 6L, main nutes from 4ml/L to 2ml/L, also added Bud Factor X and Rhino Skin for few feedings.
Yesterday I checked main buds deeply and saw that it was getting mold from inside and the buds were dying, today I decided to cut 3 main branches that had signs for mold.
Weight was 300g for the buds and 30g for the branches.
I think I will flush tomorrow and harvest in few days, excited to see the results. Sadly I have people that I need to share it with so it wont make it to the correct end result but whatever 😂
Thanks for reading and checking the diary, happy growing!! 💪
Maybe one of the biggest autoflowers in soil? Thanks to Fast Buds for this experience.
I think all the love I gave to her really paid out :D
Thanks for following the diary,
happy growing ✊
