FastBuds - Gelato

Great start for this girl. A nice warm week and good progress. She's a tiny bit behind the other two I started now, but still doing well. I wet the soil quite a bit when I plant so I can lay off watering for the first few days, but I'm using different pots that dry a bit faster. An idea I got from a friend on instagram. Waste paper baskets lined with material (I used old T-shirts). I like the idea of bag pots and got two, but I carry my plants around to get sun when they're older, so wanted something more rigid. His idea seemed great and is working well so far, just have to water a bit more than I normally do and it's warming up. I've been watering 100ml collected rain water every 2 days.

A nice warm start to the week, but the past 3 days it's cooled down and was completely grey and rainy today. Nice progress, doubled in size this week. A little smaller than her 2 sisters, but still doing well. Just giving 100ml collected rainwater every 2nd day. Will start with a light feed mix next week.

A bit of a crap week weather wise. Lots of rain and solid cloud blocking the sun, some days were pretty much dark all day. Temperature didn't drop too much luckily, but not the greatest week. Today was much better and looks like it's nice this coming week, so hoping for the best. 7cm of height gained, but has mostly been stretching inter nodal spaces, so not too happy about that, but what can you do. She's still doing well and the weather is warming up again, so hopefully she kicks back into gear. Given 1 light feed of Bio-Grow, Fish Mix and Micro Life (the soil has amendments for the first 3 to 4 weeks), I tried to slowly feed some others at 3 weeks and looks like it's helping, so going to keep doing it.

A nice warm week again, one or 2 cooler days, but still good. Did some LST this week to keep them a bit lower. Was hoping to not do it with these 3 in this batch, but the cold and dark week that made them stretch kinda messed up that plan. They are doing really well and despite being pulled down, they are still gaining height. Only a really light feed early this week and collected rain water the rest of the week. This girl is still in preflower, which I'm happy about. Her 2 sisters are a bit further in, so hope she stretches a bit more before switching over. Otherwise all is going well with these ones and they are miles ahead of the ones I did earlier in the season.

Another mainly warm & sunny week. She's kicked into flower properly and hope she stretches a bit more. Doing well, but not the biggest. Switched over to flower food this week. Added more LST this week, but wont do anymore serious training, maybe pull a branch or 2, but minimal. She's a bit behind her 2 sisters in terms of flowering, but she has grown nice little branches and is quite a bit bigger than the other 2. She started off smaller, but overtook them. Really excited for this one!

A nice predominantly warm and sunny week. She's the biggest of the 3 sisters by far and a little behind in the flowering department, but glad, because it's given her more time to grow. She is stacking up the trichomes now though and am very happy with how she's doing. Lots of branches, so left the LST on with her and she's doing really well! Still fighting the thrips and leafminers, but got some diatomaceous earth, so hopefully that slows the thrips down.

Another nice warm week. Filling out and trichomes are coming quickly! The frost on this one is ridiculous already, even the bigger leaves have a coat of it all the way down. Smell is soft, sweet and creamy and really looking forward to this one. She's the biggest of the 3 sisters, not huge, but will be a nice little harvest. Otherwise she's doing well & weather looks good, so hoping for the best!

Another nice warm week. Girls are fattening up and doing well! Smells starting to develop and trichomes are packing on solidly! Very creamy, sweet smell developing on her, but the trichomes are the strong point so far!

Was away for a few days this week for work and left my girls in my room. Glad I did, because it was hot as hell. Not as much light as they normally get for a few days, but trying to make up for it. Fattening up nicely though and looking good. Such a good creamy, sweet smell on her.

Another good week, not much to report, all going well. This one has trichomes on the stalks under the flowers and to the end of large leaves. Going to be a good one!

Another good week. Not much to report, they're fattening up and smelling better by the day. Probably give them another small feed before starting to flush. This girl is so nice I've already put another seed in 😊

A scorcher of a week with a few days above 40C in my greenhouse. Been shade hunting for these girls so they don't get cooked. Some trichomes are turning amber, so not long left, might even take them down this week. No more feeding for most of last week and none this week and upped the watering a bit due to heat and to flush a bit. This girl is the biggest of the 3 Fastbuds girls I got given and am so happy. The creamy sweetness smells amazing and the buds are going a light green, almost yellow and covered in the clearest frost, that is now slowly turning. I was so happy with her I've already put another seed in to refill the pot when I chop her. Started using polystyrene cups to start my autos, so I can have them 2 or 3 weeks old by the time I harvest the older plant and should have a much better turn around as I need to make the most of the season outdoors.

Such a beautiful plant with amazing flower. I started off with the most rookie error and over watered her a bit, so she had a slow start. Other than that she was a n easy grow with some nice flower. Sweet, creamy ice cream notes with a hint of fruit in the background. A very nice hybrid high, starting off more uplifting and slowly relaxing, but not to the point of and couch lock. She packs a punch too, so is great for the more heavy smokers.
