Z-UP Auto

Raffael It's developing quite well, I must say :)

Raffael 🌱 Z Up from 420 Fastbuds – Starting the second week of vegetative growth The Z Up is now entering its second week of vegetative growth and is showing really stable and even growth. From the very beginning, it has developed in an exceptionally harmonious way and gives off a very vibrant impression. It's particularly nice to see how the lower branches are really catching up now. The branches at the first node are even surpassing the main stem, ensuring that the plant is not just growing upwards but is also spreading out nicely. The leaves look perfect, the development is consistent, and so far, the Z Up shows no signs of trouble. Instead, it presents itself with strong, healthy growth and a very nice, balanced structure. All in all, it has been developing super well so far – a truly beautiful plant that is a real joy to watch grow. 🌿✨ By the middle of the third week, one of the lowest branches has surpassed the main stem, and I have bent the leaves down so that the other side branches also have a chance to keep up and not get overshadowed. I'm curious to see if this plant will create a canopy all on its own. 🙏

Raffael The Z-up from Fast Buds is by far the strongest in the entire bed. It has really taken off and has shown extremely stable and vigorous growth from the start. Although it germinated around the same time as the other plants, it is now about 10 centimeters taller than the rest. And as if that weren't enough, it actually started flowering yesterday – just 21 days after germination. So it is really quite ahead of the other plants now. I also really like its structure so far. I gently bent one shoot at the lowest node that has started to overtake the main stem to the side. Just to create a bit more space between the shoots and ensure that everything isn't directly stacked on top of each other. Otherwise, I'm mostly leaving it alone for now and just watching how it develops. However, its extremely fast growth does bring a small problem. The other plants are currently lagging behind and developing much slower. As a result, the Z-Up is now so big that it is starting to shade the smaller plants. This is not ideal, as I actually want to provide all the plants with as similar conditions as possible. So I will let it run like this for a bit and observe how everything develops. In the near future, I will probably also need to adjust the lighting conditions accordingly so that the Z-Up gets enough light during flowering. This might not be optimal for the smaller plants, but since the development is currently so different, I just have to figure out how to best manage everything. In any case, I'm excited to see what the Z-Up will do now in flowering. So far, it is definitely the absolute surprise in this round.
