IndigoMist8 All plants are doing ok so far.
Gave all foliar sprays of BT as there is pest pressure elsewhere in the garden.
Supported the tall ones for for a windy day with 20-30mph gusts, they took the wind like champs.
Wedding cheesecake the oldest and is starting to give a hint of sweet funk sometimes.
Update: While checking plants today, Wedding Cheesecake had a brownish bud (bottom branch). I snip it off, no other affected sites. I will be checking diligently now, as weather has been very hot and humid.

IndigoMist8 The plants are doing great (I think ?). Gave a molasses and silica watering . Also constantly checking for bugs & PM, which is rampant in another section of the my garden. Also added a layer of mushroom compost to GZ & the MPs.
WC is getting closer to harvest as I am seeing some amber on the sugar leaves. I understand that sugar leaves turn first and intense heat/sun can cause premature amber. I have been having hard time seeing with the jewelers loupe that I have, so I ordered a digital microscope for the phone which should make it easier.
Nose:
Same as previous week, except MP#1 finally expressed that she is 100% strawberry. Still nothing noticable on MP#3 yet.
Please note: This is my very first diary, so mistakes were made with some info. Wedding cheesecake is 2 weeks older than the rest of the plants in this diary.
Wedding cheesecake was my first official grow & harvest. She struggled in the beginning as I started her indoors along with 5 other different strains from various breeders without a proper set-up. I was not expecting them to stay indoors as long as they did, but we had unusual cold weather at the start of the season. She survived when the other seeds and seedlings didn't. She is a true champ. Dense buds and strong fruity cheese funk smell. Harvested her on day 61. I hope to have final weight and smoke report soon.
Although I have been gardening for decades, this is my first time growing these amazing plants. I hope to have an indoor setup someday and I am always trying to learn more, so, I am open to any advice/criticism.
These fast buds girls are growing very similar to my poly tunnel autos. I was in a similar situation to you in 2022 when I started. Lifelong horticulturist but I fell in love with this one plant, it is amazing. The process of diarising has also really helped my mental health. Any advice or questions you might want or have please reach out.
Welcome to grow diaries, and good luck.
@UnorthadoxDude, What was your favorite strain from fastbuds and why, if you don't mind me asking. They have so many strains I'd like to try, but hard to pick which first.
