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 very beginning. Even though it sprouted around the same time as the other plants, it is now a good 10 centimeters taller than the rest. And as if that weren't enough, it actually started flowering yesterday – and that’s just on day 21 after germination. So it’s really quite a bit 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 shoot 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 with it. The other plants are still lagging behind and developing much slower. As a result, the Z-Up is now so big that it’s starting to shade the smaller plants. That’s not necessarily optimal because I actually want to provide all the plants with as similar conditions as possible. So I’ll let it run like this for a bit and observe how everything develops. In the near future, I’ll probably also need to adjust the lighting conditions accordingly so that the Z-Up gets enough light during flowering. This might not be entirely optimal for the smaller plants, but since the development is currently so different, I just have to see how I can best manage everything. In any case, I’m excited to see what the Z-Up will do now in flowering. So far, it’s definitely the absolute surprise in this round.
