ok guys so the fastbuds Cali Snow is off to a nice stocky start! she is a nice size for only 13 days old and her real growth is ahead. lets see what this week has in store for us, i lowered my DIY COB fixture down so the growth should pick upnow that she is able to handle more light.

ok guys so the fastbuds cali snow just showed sex 2 days ago (day 25-26) so the real growth should start now. she looks like she will be a very nice bush with PLENTY of side branching. The stem on this thing is about the size of a sharpie marker at least! stay tuned!

ok guys so the Fastbuds California Snow is finally starting to stretch out now that she has shown sex. The main stem/trunk on this plant is BEEFY! she should end up being a nice stocky plant that can support any buds weight! im defoliating her (maybe 8-10 fans/leaves a day) and she seems to be taking it well. the plant was so thick with growth there was no air flow getting in there and no light. she looks better now with the defoliation.

ok guys so the fastbuds cali snow is now in pre-flower. She didnt stretch as mych as i thought, instead she just kept bushing out so im defoliating her to open her up some to get some light and airflow in there. she should grow a couple more inches before fully switching to bloom.

ok guys so i got a new camera and im still learning how to use it so bear with me on the pics. so i gave the fastbuds cali snow a plain water feed with some calmag since she seemed to be a little over fed for a little but she is fine and flowering. i may give her 1 more feed like that after a 1/2 strength flower feed just incase if she needs it. we will see how hungry she gets in peak flower....

ok guys so the Fastbuds California Snow was flushed of any excess salts the other day and now we will focus on flower production which by the looks of it theres gonna be alot of buds. i mean this thing is a solid bush LOADED with bud sites. I cant wait to see her build some flowers and trichomes.

ok guys so the fastbuds Cali Snow is in Full Bloom mode and the buds are packing on fast! i will probably up her feed next feed as she is a little light but i would rather have a slightly underfed girl then a over fed girl 😉😁

Ok guys so the Cali snow has REALLY packed on hr frost the past week and is fattening up nicely! i have been dialing back her feeds,maybe a tad too early but it will be some damn fine smooth smoke when harvested! The smell she is starting to emit is a creamy sour just like sour cream with some earth and fruit in there also... VERY interesting Terps, cant wait to see what it finishes like and cures up👍 Her next feed which will be in the next day or 2 will be just a terpinator and MAYBE some Mendocino Avalanche 1 time to dense up the buds they are ALREADY dense buds...After that straight water and terpinator until harvest... im thinking they will be like as dense as rocks by then end🙏 nice job on this one Fastbuds, im anxious to see how this one smokes! Wish i knew the % indica/Sativa on this one

Week 11. Harvest

Happy Harvest Day!

OK guys so the fastbuds cali snow really surprised me when I was dry trimming her with how pungent this strain is... it has a very tangy sour smell like vinegar/sour cream along with some fruit which when smelt can be described as a sour apple kind of smell, VERY UNIQUE TERPS right here guys.. As for the high it is a classic indica dominant hybrid that has some decent appetite stimulation. The smoke is VERY SMOOTH and flavorful all the way until the end of the joint and it taste's like it smells but with some cinnamon or cedar taste in there and a nce soft sweetness also which just makes this strain a new go to in my seed stash!

ok guys so the fastbuds cali snow vegged a little longer than my autos normally do but she flowers fast and vigorous with buds that glimmer in the light and smell very tart and fruity with some other smells that i will get a better grasp of once it dries and cures some. this looks to be a very solid yielding strain that doesnt take up much space. her leaves didnt have much for frost but the buds are positively coated in snow!

@Tripaholic88, If they didn’t give you a hard time you’d probably lose interest!
Tripaholic88
Tripaholic88commented7 years ago
@TeflonDonFarms, i think you will really like terpinator makes the buds super greasy and sticky for a great price point.... sometimes i will use silica to strengthen the stalks but not unless the strain need it like most OG's and stretchier plants. and yes i care alot about my babies but sometimes they just give me a head ache and some new grey hairs!

@thanks SadBoyDabs710, I just posted the smoke report.. I'll get up a weight tomorrow.. it should be a good yield of some great flowers... I've smoked about 8 grams I'd say so far, it's far to easy to consume,luckily I got enough of it!
Tryhard
Tryhardcommentedweek 117 years ago
I would have to agree with your description but when she dried she’s an a real nice smoke it surprised me congratulations on your harvest
Tripaholic88
Tripaholic88commented7 years ago
Thanks @@Tryhard, I just updated the diary with the smoke report.. I gotta weigh this thing before I smoke too much before cure, i must have chiefed down 8 grams by now Haha that's all to easy to do before a good cure when the flower's are great even before the cure like this one was...

Kinda wish I’d spotted this at the start of mine and I would’ve kept a closer tab on defo. You weren’t kidding, she’s grown in super dense for me as well and I do have concerns about bud rot as a result. Was just benchmarking the avg. date to chop when I stumbled on this. Great diary bud! 👍😎👌.

totally agree mate best to have slightly underfed than over fed otherwise if its overfed even if you fix it it will never be as good as it could have been

@Herne, yessir, i find it can alter the terps and flavors also
