Fast Buds💚🏆

Aleks555 Hello everyone!👋 So, here we are at day 14, and this is our current result. Our girl stretched quite a lot — around 15 cm or a bit more. The stem became thin and even turned slightly purple, while closer to the leaves it is thicker. We believe this was due to our earlier climate mistakes, as it was too cold. Now we are fixing the situation. We transplanted her from a 1.3L pot into a 5L pot, and then into a 10L pot, burying the stem all the way up to the first leaves where it is thicker. We’re hoping this will help her recover and grow strong. At the moment, everything looks good and stable. Current conditions: Temperature — Day: 24–28°C | Night: 20–23°C Humidity — Day: 65–75% | Night: 65–90%

Aleks555 Hello friends! 🌱 Day 23 — Banana Purple Punch Auto RF3 from Fast Buds She is now 17 cm tall and really starting to gain strength. The stem has thickened nicely — already stronger than a cigarette — and you can clearly see how she’s building a solid structure. The leaves are reaching upward, showing great energy and a healthy response to the environment. Watering: 0.5L every 2 days Climate conditions are stable and comfortable: Temperature — Day: 24–28°C | Night: 20–23°C Humidity — Day: 65–75% | Night: around 75% (Everything is moving in the right direction — strong growth, healthy color, and great momentum. The best is yet to come Hello growers!We’ve run into an unfortunate issue and would really appreciate your advice. Has anyone experienced something like this, and what solutions would you recommend?After transplanting into a larger pot, we buried the stem because it was thin and stretched. Everything seemed fine at first, but then we noticed the lower branches had fallen off — they rotted, and the stem also became covered with a slimy layer.We cleaned off the rot, treated it with cinnamon, and directed a fan at the plant to improve airflow.What are your thoughts and recommendations on how to deal with this problem? Thank you all in advance! 🙏)😓😶

Aleks555 After a terrible tragedy, one beauty survived, and now she is growing outdoors.

Aleks555 Everything is going well with her growth — she's just getting used to being outdoors. We bent the main top a little. She handled all the stress, cold weather, and rain really well. The temperature dropped to as low as 7°C (45°F), and we had heavy rain, but she's a strong girl and managed to withstand everything. 😊🌱💪🏻

Aleks555 The weather's not very rainy and there's not much heat, some caterpillars have eaten the lower leaves a little, but it's fine.

Aleks555 Week 9 and everything is going well. Even though the weather hasn't been very sunny and we've mostly had cloudy days and plenty of rain, our beauty keeps growing. The trichomes have started turning cloudy, and we can already see some amber ones appearing. We're going to wait until about 50% of them are amber before harvesting. We picked a small bud to dry and test at this stage so we can compare the effect, and then we'll try it again when the plant reaches around 50% amber trichomes. The finish line is getting closer! 🌱💚

Aleks555 Hello friends, hello growers! We're in the final stretch now. Just one more week, and this journey will come to an end. This lady has had a tough road, but she endured it all. She survived and rewarded us with a harvest of beautifully aromatic flowers. While she was growing in the tent, everything was perfect—stable climate, proper watering, and great care. But once we moved her outdoors, the real challenges began: cold weather, rain, and later ants, aphids, and caterpillars. We didn't use any pesticides because she was already in the middle of the flowering stage, and we didn't want to spray the buds. We also didn't use any nutrients during this outdoor run. This time, she was growing in rich, humus-filled soil, and I think it provided everything she needed. Now all that's left is to wait a little longer and enjoy the final result. 🌱💚

Aleks555 Hey friends, hey growers! Today is July 3, 2026, and it's harvest day! 🌱✂️ How did this growing process go? It was not an easy journey, but we made it. The hardest part was not growing the plant itself, but everything that was happening around us. Those who have been following this diary from the very beginning will definitely understand what I'm talking about. And if you just found this diary, you can trace the entire growing process from start to finish and understand the story behind it. I would like to sincerely thank **Fast Buds** for the seeds, for your support, and for such amazing genetics. A few words about **Banana Purple Punch Auto RF3**: The seeds sprouted in just 24 hours. From the very beginning, it grew well. We made a few mistakes, but the genetics turned out to be incredibly strong and handled all the stresses without any issues. It also responded very well to LST (low-stress training). The aroma is incredibly intense — very strong and rich. The buds are completely covered in trichomes. We tried a small sample about three weeks ago, and I can honestly say it was excellent: strong, powerful, and delightful. Now we are eagerly waiting to see how the aroma, taste, and effect develop after proper drying and curing. In conclusion, I want to thank everyone who has followed my grow diaries over the years. Thank you to every grower — both newbies and pros — all the breeders, and everyone who supports and helps this wonderful community grow. See you in the next growing cycle! As soon as it’s fully dried and trimmed, I’ll let you know the final weight. Once we have the chance to try it again after proper drying and curing, I’ll also share my thoughts on the taste, potency, and overall effect.
