I have started this Diary simply because I germinated two seeds for the solo cup challenge and only
needed one seedling. I will be doing this entire grow in a 3 Litre homemade bubble bucket so I won't be expecting
huge yields or anything. I feel I have more control over the way they grow when I use hydroponic techniques.
I have started a light feeding schedule for the first 2 weeks consisting of
Cyco Silica @1 mls /litre
Professors Nutrients Go Green @ 1mls / litre
Seasol @ 0.5mls/ litre
PPM 200 slowly rising to 450
Ph 5.8
21 Hours Lights On
3 Off
👊👊👊👊
Week 2 of the Fastbuds Fastberry in a dwc environment has gone smoothly she is already twice the size of her solo cup
grown sister of the exact same age. Just goes to show what an aerated solution can do for rapid growth when compared to soil or coco grown plants. Nothing much to report she was fed a mix of cyco silica and the professors nutrients A+B
yesterday so she should be ok until atleast next weekend . So until then Keep toking and thanks for stopping By 😎
Welcome to another week of the Fast buds fastberry DWC run
I think this is a better representation of this plants potential than her sister in the solo cup
I am very very disapointed in it but this plant seems to be growing well so far.
No deficiencies No ph swings fairly low maintenence strain so far
Feeding this week is still on the weak side
Cyco silica @ 1mls per litre
Professors nutrients A+B @ 2mls per litre
Seasol @ 0.5mls per litre
Ph 5.8 PPM 500
Major update 7th august
She grew so fast in the last three days that I had to move her into a 10 litre bucket 😲
Not complaining That's for sure
She has preflowers so next week should be interesting
Thanks for stopping by 👌👊
Well They don't call it fast berry for nothing !! 😃
This plant has taken off in the last week , Started to stretch and has nearly doubled her height and girth in just 7 days.
The decision to move her into the bigger bucket was obviously a good one On my part as she is just pumping along.
There is a very good chance of her finishing within the 70 day mark which would be awesome.
I tips me hat to the genetics of this strain as it has ticked nearly all the boxes of how I consider a autoflower should ideally grow which is
Fast vigorous Vegetative growth of 4 weeks or less
Nice structure
Explosive early flowering growth
The only other thing to complete the deal will be fast finishing and obviously the End result being how she smokes up.
😄😛
Feeding this week was
GT Silica @ 5mls / litre
Professors Nutrients A+B @ 3 mls / litre
Seasol @ 0.5mls /litre
Calimagic @ 1ml/ litre
Ozi magic Bud swell @ 4mls / litre (It says ozi tonic in the nutes section but that's only because this stuff isn't on the list)
Well thanks again for stopping by See ya Round like a rissole
Welcome to the second week of Fast berries flowering 😀
What Can I say ? Bloody Hell !! Crikey!! She's A beauty this sheila 😃 Going like a rat up a drain pipe 💪
I can always tell a plant is happy when all of it's leaves are pointing up towards the light and you can almost see the new growth developing . Well not quite but she's growing a fair bit everyday I hope the stretch is over now and she starts to
Bulk up those Flowers. All of my plants are a bit crowded together at the moment as my new tent's not here yet In
hindsite I probably should of held off on germinating the Barneys Farm seeds until after it arrived and was set up but
I didn't and thats all there is to it.
Feeds this week are the same as last week
Cyco silica, Professors Nutrients and Calimagic
PPM 1000 Ph 5.8
Thanks for checking out the Fast_Buds FastBerry DWC run 👌👊
Welcome Back to My Fast Berry DWC grow. This Girl is still pumping along nicely. 😃
the buds are starting to fill out and fatten a bit and The resin and aroma are starting to be developed.
A fairly sweet smell is released when I gently touch the buds However I try not to handle the flowers too much as I'm
very wary of potentially and unwittinly transmitting diseases or something from plant to plant.
She's using aprox 1 litre of nutrient solution per day and I top up every 2 days because when using smaller nutrient
reservoirs the PPM can rise significantly if the solution gets too low and the plant takes up a lot of water leaving a
stronger concentration of salts thus concentrating the nutes which could cause burning or root damage.
Thanks again for stopping by and reading my Diary See ya's round like a Rissole 👍
Welcome Back To my Fast Berry Grow 😃 I cant believe this girl has only been in flower for 4 weeks !!
Really developing nicely Extremely sticky with a pleasant sweet aroma .
I think I have an ideal pheno with this one 😀 💪
Ive been wondering to myself if a multiple plant fastberry sea of green grow would produce the goods to make it worthwile.
(ie 60 odd grams per plant x 5 = 300 odd grams ) if I could get that from a SOG grow in 10-12 weeks I would be pretty
happy with that.
Just another thing to think about I guess . 😁
As far as feeding goes I was just going along nice and steady with the nutes as she looked content , however in the last
few days she's showed signs of being hungry so I upped the P&K a little extra .
Happy Grows Folks See ya next Week 👊
Gday , well this plant is approaching maturity at a fairly rapid pace. Only 5 weeks of flowering and the main cola is all cloudy and the calyxes are swelling.
Because the main bud is so much closer to light than the others it will be ready quicker than the others so I will chop it off in a few days to let the other buds mature properly. The fan leaves are fading nicely and I'll introduce some flawless finish to help flush her in the next Nutrient change then she'll go on to plain
water until the final chop. I cant wait to sit down with a cone or two of this Fastberry once she's all done so I can enjoy the fruits of my labor 😝
The last feed I gave her was quite strong it consisted of :
Professors Nutrients A+B @ 2mls / litre
GHE Calimagic @ 1ml / litre
Ozi magic Ozi Tonic @ 10mls / litre
Natures Own Super Bloom GUANO @ 10mls / litre
PPM 1600 Ph 5.7
💪💪💪💪
FastBuds Fastberry week 6 of Flowering :
Mid week I did a mini flush with some Flawless finish so I could chop the main cola and let the other buds mature some more.
I then made up a half strength nute mix to keep her happy for the rest of the week before it got another flush today.
I harvested all of the mature buds and will let the rest of the plant go for a bit longer with just water to get as much yield as I can .
Next week will be the official harvest update .
Fastbuds Fastberry DWC Run
Wow what an easy no problems grow this was!!!
I couldn't fault this plant one bit It grew fast and flowered nice and quickly
which is exactly what I'm personally looking for when growing Auto strains.
All thruout the grow she had an amazing fruity smell , that only got stronger as
she approached Maturity.
After harvesting I ended up with a heap of ultra sticky sweet smelling goodness
that will keep me happy for a little while.
I think this is a great strain for sharing with friends as they will be very impressed
with the colour , texture , smell and of course the hard hitting high.
Another thing this stuff would be perfect for is to make Rosin or BHO with the harvest
Imagine that sticky sweet smelling goodness in the form of a nice Dab.
Makes my eyes Red just imagining it . 😝😝😍
Thanks to Everybody who followed along with the Grow and I look forward to
trying the other 30 odd Fastbuds strains 😁
