Borberad Kannabia Candy Cream Go Fast
In this grow diary, we meticulously document the life cycle of the Candy Cream Go Fast from Kannabia Seeds. The goal is to reproduce the promised acceleration of the flowering phase while maximizing the terpene profile using our proven 6-Shooter method. We ignore the obligatory warning on the packaging ("Not intended for cultivation!") with our usual scientific ignorance – after all, someone has to justify the VIP status! 😂🌱
Our approach is characterized by precision and scientific observation. This grow diary serves as a chronicle that connects theoretical planning (UIS-controlled climate management) with practical implementation and allows for adjustments based on the dynamic conditions of the grow.
Strain Description: Candy Cream Go Fast
The Candy Cream Go Fast is a high-performing, indica-dominant hybrid strain known for its incredible speed and sweet, creamy aromas. It has been specifically developed to massively shorten the flowering time without sacrificing the potency of the classic genetics.
Genetics: A complex alliance of Afghan, South Indian, and Skunk, modified for an accelerated photoperiodic cycle.
Effect: Reportedly provides profound physical relaxation, ideal for evening use – a true "Heavy Hitter."
Terpene Profile: A sweet, almost confectionery aroma, dominated by caramel notes and earthy undertones.
Flowering Time: Record-breaking 45–50 days after switching to 12/12.
Week 0: The Germination Phase
Germination of the VIP seed has begun in the Mars Hydro propagation tent.
Day 0.1: After a 12-hour rehydration in a 1% H2O2 solution, the seed was placed in an Eazy Plug.
Day 0.2: The first patience phase. The temperature in the propagation area is kept stable at 23°C.
Day 0.3/0.4: The germination root has gripped the plug. The first bulge of the surface is visible. We have adjusted the DLI of the Mars Hydro LED to about 12.
Day 0.5: The seedling pair breaks through. The light intensity has been increased to 16 DLI.
Day 0.6: The seedling dome is gradually opened to acclimate the plant to the target humidity of about 70% rHF.
Day 0.7: Everything under control. The Candy Cream is stable and shows the first signs of the first true leaf pair.
Fertilization & Measurements: Easy Plug, no additional fertilizer needed. Focus on stable VPD of 0.8 kPa.

She's growing and has a rich green color, but compared to her sunny sister, she's taking her time to spread out and shoot up.
P.s. The somewhat embarrassing mistake on the label was only noticed now. But it's been corrected right away. Sorry for the confusion.
Borberad Week 5
The last week of Veg.
As soon as she fills the pot area halfway, it's time for flowering.

Day 36
The pot area is mostly filled.
It's being rearranged, not just the timing but also physically. The little flower is moving from the seed tent, which was also the veg tent this time, to her bloom tent. Since both tents are running at different times, the first night will be extended to about 21 hours by parking her in an unlit tent in between. Afterwards, it will be illuminated in the usual 12-hour rhythm.

She's slowly but clearly switching to bloom mode. LST is now being reduced, and the good one can grow taller. Currently, we have half an hour of sunrise and sunset each, with a peak of 860 ppfd, so we're getting 35.6 DLI on the roof of the little one.

She is really almost there. The little flower is happily stretching, and the first buds have already developed. Lighting continues at around 36 DLI.

Borberad Week 9
The training has been handled well, she's growing healthy and strong. It's about time to get some air through the foliage again, so this week I'll gradually defoliate the bottom third, as well as remove some flowers and shoots.
Borberad Week 12
Considering that she switched late, she's already quite far along in flowering and lives up to her name addition. Even though she was put on the 12h schedule 10 days later than her roommate, she visually seems to be further along. The leaves are slowly changing to autumn colors, and the buds also seem to be getting a blue-violet shimmer. The coming days will surely bring a nice color change.

Borberad Week 13
Day 85
The plant is doing well and looks magnificent. However, this one bud has been noticeably different for a few days now. It seems to be ahead of the others. Since deviations in growth or color within a plant are usually not a good sign, we decided to take a closer look at this friend.
Unfortunately, the experience has been confirmed here as well. Due to mold in the bud, likely caused by contamination (a dead fungus gnat or something similar), no nutrients could reach it anymore, resulting in earlier autumnal discoloration.
Day 88
The entire plant has switched to autumn mode and is shining in various tones. Now it’s just a matter of a few days before it’s time to harvest. Feeding will now be set to zero. Noteworthy are the really mega thick trichome heads of the two ladies in the tent.

Borberad Here are a few pictures from the partial harvest.
Day 105
She should be gone by now, but she's still pretty.... and not too much amber yet.
Day 109 Probably the tree fellers will come tomorrow. The remaining early harvest had to be turned into rosin now. (Return at 70°C, 75 micron about 13%)
A plant that is fun and nice to look at. Due to the rather summery temperatures this year, the lady in the tent was a bit warm, which showed through slight foxtailing of the buds. Overall, she handled the high temperatures very well. No signs of hermaphroditism and otherwise a very resilient little flower. The scent during the last weeks of flowering was sweet and pronounced.

Borberad The last week went smoothly, the THC peak should be reached, and the little light has beautifully changed colors to a small violet. The last few weeks have definitely been worth it. However, the topic of going fast at 74 days to 12 hours of night is somewhat limiting. Even if we subtract the 10 days it took for the little flower to switch, there are still 63 days of flowering, which is a bit long for an auto variety. We can't judge whether it was due to the high temperatures or the strain we ended up with. Nevertheless, the entire grow was a pleasure, and the little flower was consistently nice to look at.

Borberad The last week went smoothly, the THC peak should be reached, and the little plant has beautifully changed colors to a dark purple. The last few weeks have definitely been worth it, although the Go Fast topic at 74 days with 12 hours of night is a bit restrictive. If we subtract the 10 days it took for the flower to switch, there are still 63 days of flowering, which is a bit long for a Fast variety. We can't judge whether it was due to the high temperatures or the strain we ended up with. Nevertheless, the entire grow was a pleasure, and the flower was consistently nice to look at.
Sometimes, second chances are the best ones! 😉 Best of luck with your new Candy Cream Go Fast. 🍭✨
We hope she grows healthy and strong without any setbacks. Come on, let’s go for it! 💪🧡
What an amazing harvest! 😍 Thank you so much for sharing these stunning images with us; your care and dedication shine through in every shot. It’s great to see how the Candy Cream Go Fast stayed resilient and kept that sweet aroma despite the high temperatures. You’ve done a fantastic job! Now it's time to kick back and fully enjoy the fruits of your labor. Cheers! 🍬🌿
@Kannabia,
Hi Kannabia-Team,
thank you very much for the great feedback and the kind words about Candy Cream! 🍬🌿
We are really thrilled about your praise and this amazing plant. The robustness of Candy Cream in the summer temperatures in the tent has impressed us a lot, and the sweet aroma is just the perfect finish for this run.
We look forward to the dried harvest and more projects. ☺️✌️
Best regards, Team Borberad
