Fast_Buds7272736 Day ~27 — Pre-flowering / Early Stretch The plant is healthy and responding well to LST. Pistils are starting to appear on both the main top and side branches. Stretch has just started — daily growth is now visible. Leaves are a nice green, no signs of deficiency or stress. The canopy is wide and even, with around 8–10 developing tops. Temperature and humidity are stable (around 26 °C / 45–50% RH), and the PPFD is between 650–750 across most of the canopy. Feeding is going well with AN Grow, Micro, Bloom, plus Big Bud and Bud candy Day [30]– LST & Defoliation Did some light LST to help open up the canopy and improve light distribution. I also defoliated around 15–20 larger fan leaves that were shading lower bud sites. The plant handled it well and showed no signs of stress afterward. Day [31] – Feeding Today I watered the plant with 2 liters of water mixed with the following nutrients: • 8 ml Grow • 8 ml Bloom • 8 ml Micro • 3 ml Big Bud • 3 ml Bud Candy The feeding was done in the morning, about 45 minutes after lights turned on. The plant is still in pre-flowering and showing nice vertical growth. No signs of overfeeding or deficiencies – healthy color and structure.

Fast_Buds7272736 Week 6 – Flowering Progress & Canopy Management We’re now fully into week 6, and the flowering phase is officially in motion. Pistils are forming steadily on every main site, and the plant has developed a balanced structure with around 11–12 visible colas. The main top is clearly leading, while the side branches are catching up nicely. Yesterday I did a light defoliation to open up the canopy and improve airflow. A few small lower shoots were also removed to redirect energy upward. The effect was almost immediate — bud sites look more exposed and are visibly more active today. LST is still doing its job well. The structure remains wide and flat, allowing good light penetration to all tops. The plant has responded well to the training, and all major colas are in strong positions. The light is currently set at about 25–30 cm from the canopy, and the plant shows no signs of light stress — leaves are praying and healthy. Feeding continues with bloom-focused nutrients (Bloom, Big Bud, Bud Candy), and so far no deficiencies or burn. Environment is steady around 24–26°C with 45–50% RH. Looking forward to the next week — hoping to see some real bulking begin soon. For a small plant, she’s shaping up to be quite promising!

Fast_Buds7272736 Week 7 Grow Diary (Day 47 – Flowering Day 12)The main cola stands tall at around 22 cm, with side branches reaching a solid 16 cm. Bud development is clearly underway — they’re stacking nicely, showing early density and plenty of trichomes. Pistils are mostly white with the first hints of amber starting to appear. The aroma is getting stronger every day — a bold, sweet citrus punch with subtle spicy undertones. Super promising! Leaves are lush green and healthy across the canopy, with excellent structure and spacing from early LST. Feeding schedule includes Bloom, Micro, Big Bud and Bud Candy. Green Sensation will be introduced next Friday to push flower density and resin production. Light distribution is solid even with the main cola slightly off-center. Overall, the plant is thriving — energy is high, and everything’s on track for a frosty finish.

Fast_Buds7272736 Hi! Week 8 – Flowering | Day ~53 What a transformation! The plant has entered full mid-flower and is thriving. Buds are swelling up fast, covered in glistening trichomes, and the main cola is getting chunky and frosty. The side branches are not far behind — this girl is working hard! We’re also starting to see beautiful purple hues develop on the sugar leaves and stems. It’s likely a mix of her genetics and the cooler 18–19°C night temperatures bringing out those colors — and it’s stunning. ⸻ Possible Overfeeding & Recovery Earlier this week she received: • 8ml Bloom (1-3-4) • 2ml Micro (2-0-0) • 2ml Green Sensation (0-9-10) • 6ml Bud Candy It now seems like this may have caused a bit of overfeeding — I noticed slight clawing, burnt tips, and some rust spotting. Classic signs of nitrogen and potassium buildup. Today, I decided to help her reset by giving pH-adjusted distilled water only — pH ~6.2 using citric acid. No nutrients. Just a gentle flush to help the root zone balance itself. Shortly after watering, she started praying toward the light, and her color looks happy again. It’s like she’s saying thank you! ⸻ Environment • Tent: Closed, good airflow • Light Schedule: 20/4 • Day Temp: ~22.5°C • Night Temp: ~18–19°C • RH: ~40% • LED Full Spectrum Light • Subtle defoliation to improve air circulation If she keeps going like this, I’m expecting dense, sticky flowers with strong terpene expression. She’s on track for a lovely finish!

Fast_Buds7272736 Week 9 - Day 59 (from seed) Tropicana Cookies Auto by Fast Buds Update: Yesterday I watered her with 5ml Plagron Green Sensation and 6ml of Bud Candy in 2 liters of distilled water. No pH adjustment. This should help push the buds a bit more in this final phase. Plant status: She’s stacking up nicely! Buds are really starting to swell and fill out, especially around the main cola. There’s a heavy coating of trichomes — mostly milky with just a few clears left, no amber yet from what I can see. The sugar leaves have a nice frost to them and the aroma is getting stronger each day — very sweet and fruity. Leaves are mostly healthy, although a few of the older fan leaves are starting to fade, which is expected at this stage. No major signs of deficiency or stress. I think she’s entering her final push. Based on trichome development and overall appearance, I’d estimate maybe 10–14 days left. I’ll likely start the flush in 3-4 days unless I see amber trichomes sooner. Any thoughts or feedback are welcome — feel free to check the trichome pics and let me know what you’d do!

Fast_Buds7272736 Week 10 – Ready for the final stretch Most of the pistils have turned brown, with only a few white hairs remaining – a clear sign that harvest is approaching fast. The buds have bulked up nicely, becoming denser and stickier, covered in a frosty layer of trichomes. The aroma has intensified, leaning towards a sweet, fruity profile, likely enhanced by the Bud Candy. The foliage looks healthy, and I performed a light defoliation to improve airflow. At the beginning of the week, the plant received its final feeding: a mix of Green Sensation and Bud Candy in 2 liters of distilled water. That was followed by a dose of Flawless Finish. From now on, only pH-adjusted water will be used until harvest.
