Introduction
According to Fast Buds this strain grows around 130 cm and yields 400 – 550 gr/m2 in about 9-10 weeks, commands a THC content of up to 23%. As a sativa dominant strain (70%), she will grow tall with a large internodal spacing and produce strong aroma.
Germination process
I used the paper towel method. Used the paper towel method, the temperature was around 20°C and it was dark.
I filled the 5-gallon (19 l, 30x25cm) fabric container with BioBizz All-Mix (it contains 35% garden peat, 30% perlite, 20% sphagnum peat moss, 10% BioBizz Worm Humus, 5% Pre-Mix), but in the middle I left a 7cm plant pot sized hole, what I filled with BioBizz Light-Mix, because it is better for seedlings (it is lightly pre-fertilised). I was moistening the growing medium with 1,5l dechlorinated tap water when I put the seed on the paper towel, because BioBizz recommends it for 36 hours before planting, to activate the dry fertiliser Pre-Mix and the micro-organisms.
The seed coat cracked in 48 hours. I put the seed into the soil on the 3rd of December (79 hours later than I put it into paper towels). I think the germination is a bit slow, maybe because of the relatively cold temperature.
She finally popped her head out of the soil late at night on 7 December, a week after I started germination, and 13 hours later she was standing upright.
The 1st week of vegetation is over, the seedling is growing nicely.
I have the grow light set at 50%, currently 45 cm from the seedling. So far, the plant seems to be doing well, although the upward tilting of the leaf edges suggests some light stress.
I didn't add any nutrition to the watering this week, but BioBizz All-Mix soil contains 10% organic Worm-Humus and 5% Pre-Mix fertilizer. Since I used a nursing pot-sized section of light-mix soil in the middle of the pot and planted the seed in that, I don't think the roots have reached the fertilized soil yet, but if they have, they haven't really taken up the nutrients from there yet.
D1 (08/12/2024): I watered her with a few tablespoons of dechlorinated tap water, and she was given a plastic dome to keep the humidity even. During this period, the plant is tied up in root formation and gets its nutrients mainly from the seed, and until the first true leaves appear, she can get water mainly through the leaves, so the watering was just to help the developing roots advance in the soil.
D2 (09/12/2024): I sprayed about 30 ml of dechlorinated tap water at about 5 cm from the plant with a spray bottle to stimulate the horizontal expansion of the roots
D3 (10/12/2024): repeated the previous day's watering (30 ml) + left the dome + measured the height of the seedling: 2 cm
D4 (11/12/2024): -
D5 (12/12/2024): -
D6 (13/12/2024): 1 litre of dechlorinated tap water was poured into the entire fibre pot, to which the plant reacted with a slight wilting, i.e. too much. 8 hours later it had fully recovered. I measured her height again: 3.1 cm
D7 (14/12/2024): -
End of week 2, things are going well.
D8 (15/12/2024): -
D9 (16/12/2024): measured the height of the seedling: 3,5 cm
D10 (17/12/2024): -
D11 (18/12/2024): sprayed 100 ml of dechlorinated tap water
D12 (19/12/2024): sprayed 200 ml of dechlorinated tap water + since I have trips appearing among my houseplants, have put up yellow sheets
D13 (20/12/2024): -
D14 (21/12/2024): measured the height of the seedling: 5,5 cm
End of week 3. Fortunately, so far, no sign of thrips, she’s growing nicely, so topped her on day 20.
This week I started adding BioBizz Bio-Grow and Fish-Mix, adding 1-1ml of both to 1.5 litres of water.
D15 (22/12/2024): watered her with 1 l of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix. She wilted again, so it was too much for her. It's too cold in the grow tent, so the water evaporates very slowly, and the plant seems to have a relatively small appetite.
D16 (23/12/2024): -
D17 (24/12/2024): measured the height of the plant: 7 cm
D18 (25/12/2024): -
D19 (26/12/2024): -
D20 (27/12/2024): topped her. This is my first topping ever; we'll see how successful it will be. As the lowest branches are too low and I was afraid I would have to cut them off, left the branches of the 3rd node.
D21 (28/12/2024): watered her with 250ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix
End of week 4. The plant is growing nicely and getting more and more scent.
I continued the same fertilization schedule as last week (1-1ml of BioBizz Bio-Grow and Fish-Mix to 1.5 litres of water) and started LST from D24. On D27 I had to remove a few leaves to allow the light to penetrate deeper into the foliage.
In the middle of the week, I found that since the spacing between the nodes of all three plants in the grow tent was too small, I had to raise the grow light, but did not change the light intensity.
D22 (29/12/2024): -
D23 (30/12/2024): -
D24 (31/12/2024): did LST + watered her with 300ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix
D25 (01/01/2024): -
D26 (02/01/2025): did LST + watered her with 300ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix
D27 (03/01/2025): measured the height of the plant: 12,5cm + have raised the light source (45 cm 63 cm) + reduced the foliage
D28 (04/01/2025): -
Week 5 is over, I am happy with the progress.
She's getting stronger, with lots of LST and the removal of some leaves, the canopy is starting to open more and more. Topping is fun!
From D35 I gave her nearly half of the water poured under the pot to stimulate her roots to penetrate deeper into the soil. The fertilization schedule remained the same.
D29 (05/01/2025): LST + defoliation + 400 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix
D30 (06/01/2025): LST
D31 (07/01/2025): LST + defoliation
D32 (08/01/2025): LST + 300 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix
D33 (09/01/2025): 500 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix
D34 (10/01/2025): LST
D35 (11/01/2025): LST + defoliation + 300 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow and BioBizz Fish-Mix
The first pistils appeared at the beginning of the week, which means that she has entered the preflower stage.
In addition to the usual feed (1-1ml of BioBizz Bio-Grow and Fish-Mix to 1.5 litres of water) I started to add 2-2ml BioBizz Bio-Bloom and Top-Mix.
As two plants were already flowering in the grow tent, I increased the grow light intensity (50% 62.5%) on the last day (D42).
D36 (12/01/2025): measured the height of the plant: 14cm + 600 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix
D37 (13/01/2025): LST + defoliation
D38 (14/01/2025): -
D39 (15/01/2025): 1200 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix
D40 (16/01/2025): LST + defoliation
D41 (17/01/2025): 600 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix
D42 (18/01/2025): increased the grow light intensity (50% 62.5%)
Early in the week I noticed that the edges of the leaves were starting to slope upwards, which I thought was usually a sign of heat or light stress, but it hasn't worried me much yet. The temperature in the tent was 1-2 degrees higher than before, and I turned the light up (to 62.5%) at the end of the previous week, so I thought it would get used to the new conditions. I didn't see any problems with the other two plants.
The stretching of the plant due to flowering was visible, but I was expecting much stronger growth. It still needed 3 LSTs and 2 minor defoliations.
On day 45 I noticed that the plant had started to yellow, but it wasn't until the last day of the week that this became fully apparent. Unfortunately, due to other activities, I didn't pay enough attention to the garden and by D49 the leaves were already heavily wilted when I watered the plant.
D43 (19/01/2025): LST + 600 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix
D44 (20/01/2025): LST
D45 (21/01/2025): defoliation + 1000 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix
D46 (22/01/2025): -
D47 (23/01/2025): LST + defoliation
D48 (24/01/2025): -
D49 (25/01/2025): 1000 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix
I didn't have much time for the garden this week, and it was a disaster.
By the second day of the week (D51), the plant was very dry, and I saw the characteristic signs of magnesium and calcium deficiency on the leaves (light green or yellow colouring appearing on the veins and edges of the older leaves, red stems + purple leaf edges). This explained to me why this plant was tolerating higher light intensity worse than the other two plants and why the leaf edges were starting to droop upwards. I measured the soil Ph, and it showed 7.0, so I added 2ml of Bio-Bizz Cal-Mag to the irrigation water, which I then added continuously (on top of the 1-1ml BioBizz Bio-Grow and Fish-Mix, and the 2-2ml Bio-Bloom and Top-Mix). On the last day (D56) I turned the light intensity down to 50%.
Even though I watered every two days, there was not enough water, the poor plant kept thirsting, and the leaves started to yellow more and more after drying out/watering. On D55 the leaves in the middle of the branches started to turn red. At this time, I still thought that Cal-Mag would solve the problem.
D50 (26/01/2025): -
D51 (27/01/2025): badly dehydrated + 1300 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix + Cal-Mag
D52 (28/01/2025): measured the height of the plant: 26cm
D53 (29/01/2025): badly dehydrated + 1400 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix + Cal-Mag
D54 (30/01/2025): -
D55 (31/01/2025): -
D56 (01/02/2025): + 1600 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix + Cal-Mag
Unfortunately, this week - although it would have been very important - I still didn't have enough time for the garden, so I didn't keep the diary, which is why I didn't notice that I gave even less water than before.
I continued the same fertilization schedule as last week, with the only change being that I doubled the amount of Bio-Bloom and Top-Max (4-4 ml / 1.5l water).
D57 (02/02/2025): -
D58 (03/02/2025): defoliation
D59 (04/02/2025): badly dehydrated + 1700 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix + Cal-Mag
D60 (05/02/2025): -
D61 (06/02/2025): -
D62 (07/02/2025): 1500 ml of dechlorinated tap water with BioBizz Bio-Grow + Fish-Mix + Bio-Bloom + Top-Mix + Cal-Mag
D63 (08/02/2025): -
This week I found out that the problem was not solved by Cal-Mag. I did 2 defoliations (D65, D70) because I couldn't decide how much yellowing of the leaves was not affected before (since the damaged leaves were not regenerating anymore, it was hard to see the new ones). I cut off the lower leaves first because I was afraid that they would fall to the ground and start moulding. The leaves that still had a lot of green on them I kept, as the plant was extracting valuable nutrients from them, and I had failed to get it to absorb the nutrients or misidentify what it needed.
In time, the lower leaves started to yellow, and as the whole plant is paler than the other two, it occurred to me that there was also a nitrogen deficiency. I know it's normal for the plant's leaves to start turning yellow towards the end of their flowering cycle, but we're not there yet.
Maybe my soil Ph meter is not reliable? Should I flush the soil to see if the Ph is too low? I would appreciate any tips.

Its the 5th week of flower,I thought it was the third.Get a PK Booster.The 5 day window I spoke about is clearly taking the pk out of the leaves.They do it for 5 days 3wks before harvest.I ove advanced nutrients,they are the best on the market.They do Overdrive which is a pk booster for wks 6-7.Nobody else does a specific food for late wks like that.Their big bud is for week 4-6 so that;s too late.Ifn not overdrive get and organic pk that can be used late in flower.Guano and ash are greta dry amendments for pk.All shit is great for phosphorus and ash is great for potassium,pot ash.Those buds will fatten right up.And get off those autos,ha.Photoperiod will do anything they will,and more.Autos become popular because the first ones were 10wks but these12wks aren't any faster than photoperiod.Autos are more sensitive and you have no control over whenthey flower so any issues and its tuff titty but you get an issue with photoperiod on wk 5 of veg and you can give them another week or two to recover,and they stronger.30% less power for your lights during flowering.I keep mtelling everyone,evern more so if the lack experience.So overdrive or shit and ash will bulk those buds up.The base food biobizz bloom will be mostly p and k so you could double that for extra pk if it doesn't have much else in,I guess the nitrogen is 1%,its the NPK ratios.Google "when does my plant gain the most weight",I'm sure it will tell you about pk usage and explain whats going on with your plant now.
