So I started this seed off as a lucky dip.... Right before FastBuds released the tester names 😀
The germinated seed was placed directly into her 20 litre airpot final home. The compost-perlite mix is 5:1. This was flushed with clean water and initial runoff checked to be 5.5ph. I flushed it thoroughly and ph went up to 7.0
Looking at her, you'd say she grew more than 4cm higher... But that's all the vertical height she grew this week.
But she got loads bushier!!!!!!!
Hopefully she's building roots for her future!
Wow what happened this week? Doubled her height!!! From 45cm to 88cm tall!!
She's gonna be a big girl I think!
Flowering underway now so the stretch should slow down next week 💪
Her flowers are growing nicely this week! Starting to get a bit frosty too.
Also she's starting to smell!!!! Pungent, sharp cheese smell and it's only going to get stronger 😂 😁
Just waiting and watching trichomes & pistils.
As of today all the trichomes are milky, but not all of the pistils have changed colour. A lot of them are still white.
So on she goes!!! 😎
Wow well she is a very nice example of the OG UK Cheese!
She did very well in her 13 weeks on earth. The buds she has made are very hard & dense & all a decent size! Now she has been jarred up she has a very pungent smell. Very smelly! Easily the smelliest plant I've grown!
Over 200g/plant shows good genetics. Well done Fastbuds.
This is a very strong, hard hitting and long lasting smoke! The indica couch lock shines through a lot. Really seems to give me the munchies too 😂
Wow well she's finally finished!
Crispy dry so it's time to weigh up.
Over 200g!!!!!!!!!
That's not bad FastBuds!! Well done guys. Very strong genetics. She grew well throughout.
Also I'm currently making QWISO from all the leftover trim. Lets see how much it makes when it's all evaporated off.
Update: I have a solid 6g of extract from all the otherwise wasted trim from this 1 plant! Will last ages 😁
@Fruitgrower, dude that link doesn't work for me. 😭
Those lights are for the whole tent. She shares the tent with 2 or 3 other plants of various ages. 👍
@Fruitgrower, my main lights are 8x CREE CXB3590's @ 3500k. Usually they're on about 80% as well. Honestly they are the best thing I've done to help my plants. That and the airpots. Cobs + airpots + fresh compost is the secret!
Lights are on 20h per day. For supplementary light & heat I also have 4x '1000w' blurple LED things...... These switch on along with a heater when the tent temperature gets too low.
@thomasgreen, COB LEDs are a game changer for me. Ultra bright, run cool and very efficient to run! For me COBs+Airpots+new compost is the secret!
Not tasted her yet, not quite chopped 😂
@MrRaid,, I tried to simplify things for this grow. I'm using Canna A&B, Cannazyme & Terpinator. Also lots of plain water. It seems to work well with the 20L airpot.

I read this was meant to be a short growing strain.. and that certainly does not look short 😂 looking forward to seeing how she fills out for you though man she looks a beast! does it smell like proper cheese? I haven't smoked it in over 3 years so spent a while looking for a decent auto version and picked up some of these due to fastbuds reputation.. cant wait to get started on them!
@Farmergaz420, 😂 😂 she's holding steady at ~1.2m!! Growth ceiling reached!
At the moment she doesn't smell though..
Fastbuds do have some very strong genetics. Impressive.
Like the way u said the stretch was going slow down after week 6, then she grows another foot taller in week 7. Good job u have enough height in your grow room. Good luck with the rest of the grow. I think you will have a awesome harvest there.
@hashy, Thanks dude!! I do hope she slows down!! Any more and she's out of headroom!
Just waiting to see what the flowers look like in the next few weeks 😍
