Fast buds hold true by their name. These seeds explode from day one given the proper care and attention. In flower the fragrance is amazing and the buds are generous. Would love to grow these again in the future.
Harvested Z1 (Zkittlez 1) at 95 days and Z2 (Zkittlez 2) at 90 days, At week 11 the trichomes were 90% milky with 50% orange pistils. They both received a minimum 2 full water flush, what I mean by that is a good 20% runoff to get all that built up out of the fabric pots.
Note to self. 7 Gallon pots were unnecessary for these autos, 5 Gallons would be more than sufficient possibly even 3 Gallon.
I believed the yield would be more considering how dense these buds are. I had forgotten Z2 had been massacred throughout this grow, unintentional topping as she was starting to flower and the carbon filter which fell on the plant damaging the top bud and other smaller bud sites. Taking these into consideration and after weighing Z1 I am very impressed by Fastbudz genetics especially under 13 weeks! I added a video of Z1 & Z2 dry weight to show transparency of my end results for this grow. I think better internodal spacing could allow for better bud development hence a better yield. Overall extremely pleased.
Z1 = 97gr
Z2= 61gr
Density of Buds: 10/10
Resin: 9/10
Smell: 10/10
Dry Time and Cure for Smoke Report: 6 days (are now placed in Masson jars open lid for the next 2 days then 30 min x2/day) at Relative Humidity 60% // Temp: 72° F
Smoke Report : High THC can be felt but not overpowering. Easily tell its heavier on the Indica side - will only know for sure once I try Zkittlez pheno 1.
Curing will take some time. Generally I find 8 weeks minimum tends to give me a good quality product. I will be burping the mason jars twice a day for the next 2 weeks or so and add a 58% Bodeva pack. I prefer 58% vs 62% because I tend to use a Pax vaporizer.

@GreenHouseLab, Mine where also pretty small but held the weight and the smell was pretty nice
and after letting the buds cure for a few weeks the taste is really good
it's not the rainbow bu still nice and sweet
@Puffer_Bill, Thanks. I thought they would grow taller and little bigger but the growth has ended. I really hope this strains lives up to its name and I can taste the rainbow lol Its smelly that's for sure.
@GreenHouseLab, how many times did you top it and what node did you do your first if you don’t mind me asking wanting to make my first growdiary a good one lol
@NiBaMeCa420, she is holding up like nothing happened. Worst case those buds will stop fattening and the other bud sites should only get bigger. The medical tape is doing the trick for now.
@GreenHouseLab, Smell of sugar! Nice!
I've spread technics I learned with shroom cultivation, one of these are the dehumidifier made of Calcium Chloride.
It's a scale, like baking soda, but it retain humidity. At market you may find dehumidifier for closets, it's just 150g of Cal.Chlo. but at chemistry store you may find a kg of it for cheap, like 5 dollars.
You must put it over another recipient with holes between, so the Scales may drip the water from air to the recipient below. A small CPU fan over it may accelerate the whole process.
I store my thing inside a box with it, and the humidity reach 9% fast. Over the time you must take the excess water off and shake the scales to release it.
You may find many tutorial for this tech, it's simple and efficient.
Wish you luck in the process!
@Psilocubensis, hard to say cause the smell is almost like if you had to define the smell of sugar. The buds don't do justice to just how crystalized these buds are and I've had a hard time to lower the humidity without sacrificing higher temperatures. The smell is amazing but you definitely need a carbon filter if you're trying to keep your grow low pro.
