MicroGrowery

WhackyTobaccy The original plan was to do a FastBuds grow with Wedding Cheesecake, Orange Sherbet, and Purple Lemonade. Unfortunately, the other two seeds didn't sprout. So had to sub BCN Critical last minute. I started directly in the soil in 10L airpots. The soil is a custom mix based on research. Day03 (11 days after seeds were germinated) update. It seems like I was too quick to judge. Had to try the germination another way since soil was, for whatever reason, not cutting it. The purple lemonade is now sprouting a tap root. And the orange sherbet has a Taproot as well, though seems stunted. Day 05 Update Both girls are doing good. **Still nothing to report on the other strains. I should just start another grow diary when/if they sprout 😥

WhackyTobaccy So far so good. Like how big the leaves are getting. Slowly introducing more nutrients to these babies. We've ordered a bag of CO2. Can't wait till it arrives. 🙏🤗 Day09 - Foliar spray. Nothing special. So far so good. Day11(May06) all good so far. Both plays at 7cm tall. Day13(May-08) did LST on both plants. So far so good. Day-14(May-09) nothing to report. Additional Notes: - Making 1 liter batches with water which i give every day about 100ml. - Using Alg-A-Mic 0.5 ml/l as a foliar spray.

WhackyTobaccy The wedding cheesecake is doing great doing some light LST to keep future bud sites exposed. Took off a couple fan leaves to allow for this as well. BCN seems to have developed a calcium deficiency. Trying to fix it. Any ideas would be welcome of course.🙏 I will likely change the feeding composition to compensate. Using BioBizz Alg-A-Mic and Activera as Foliar spray at 1ml/l. Day19 update BCN - thanks to the wonderful people here I got some more insights. Skipped a feeding to see if it was over feeding. Took some pics under natural light to shed some light (pun intended🤪) on the condition. Day19 update WC- great strain growing like a champ! She loves LST and rewarding with additional future cola sites 😉 Day19 Update. Both plants seem to have stabilized. I don't know what, if anything, is wrong with BCN. The plant still seems to be growing and adapting well to LST. It just had a weird discoloration. Someone here suggested that it could be underfeeding rather than burn so let's wait and see. Fingers crossed 🤞

WhackyTobaccy Continued LST. Both the Wedding Cheesecake and the BCN adapting well to light. Both plants entered flowering late last week. Had a couple small hiccups with BCN still don't know what the cause was but acting on the advise of the lovely people here we have managed to stop the spread and the plant is doing great. Fushed, adjusted my temp/humidity settings and stopped watering everyday. Did some more LST and defoliation to expose future colas to light. Don't know if I'm doing things right as it's my first time doing LST/defoliation. So comments/feedback are welcomed. Day 24 fed both plants about 300ml of nute cocktail at ph6.5. Will wait till day 27 to water. Day27 - fed the plants.. did some LST and selective defoliation. Add a 0.5ml/l of CalMag. think it's going okay so far. Adding last picture for the week. See y'all in week 5 🤗

WhackyTobaccy Another week of good growth on both strains. The WC's been quite an impressive and resilient strain growing strong. The BCN has recovered nicely from its Cal-Mag deficiency (was a combination of heat/light stress). LST continues with gentle defoliation to expose future colas and both plants seem to be responding well to it. Can't wait for the growth spurt to hit so that we can see the full fruit of our labour ;-) Another thing that is different since last week is that we're only watering once every three days about 300ml per plant and then waiting for the soil to be dry. Any advice or feedback would be much appreciated 🙏 Day 33 (5/28) did another feeding today with the same nute formula except added 0.5 ml/l of CalMag.

WhackyTobaccy Starting week 6. So far so good. This is normally the time where we mess things up. Fingers crossed. 🤞Stopped LST on both plants just gonna do selective defoliation to expose bud sites. WC Day 36 (5/31) great strain. Nothing to say other than eagerness to see the buds swell. BCN Day 36 (5/31) growing strong has been responding fairly well to LST. Other than the CalMag deficiency in the beginning, everything else seems to be going well. ** First watering on day 36 about 400ml every 3 days. ** Second watering on day 39 with about 600 ml

WhackyTobaccy Week 7, and so far so good. Waiting and 🙏 for the buds to fatten up. Still watering every third day with the same nute formula as above, adding 1 ml/l of CalMag every other feeding.

WhackyTobaccy Starting week 8 and going strong still. The BCN is sporting a lot of bud sites. So curious to see how it goes. The WC has been a champ from the get go. Excellent strain. Just keeps taking what we throw at her 🙏 Watering about a liter every feeding using the above nute formula. Been a crazy busy week as we forgot to water on the correct day and gave a longer gap in-between feedings. The BCN didn't like it! 😒

WhackyTobaccy Almost into the home stretch. Will start looking at trichomes this week. Really hope the buds continue fattening on both the ladies. Day 58 WC - growing strong. Don't know if we should remove any leaves or leave it as is. Thinking of waiting a few days to see how the plant develops. Day 58 BCN - it's recovered from the lack of watering and the leaves are starting to turn yellow. Think that's normal for this far into flowering. Hope we can finish without further surprises. Day 61 - fed both plants and did an additional 330ml of blackstrap molasses (5ml/l). Will start moving to flush in 10 days or so. Not sure if they're ready yet. 🤦‍♂️🏼Added short videos of both ladies.

WhackyTobaccy I think it's either the last week before flush or the week of. Will ask the question here to check. Feeding if Day 64 was still including the nute formula above as well as about 330 ml of water with blackstrap molasses. BCN has this weird thing happening to some buds don't know what it is or what to do. Perhaps finish the harvest and see. WC is doing okay just don't know if it's ready yet or not. Final flush done, waiting to chop in 4 days time.cant wait.

WhackyTobaccy Harvested on July 04 after 36 hours of darkness. Didn't do the wet weigh and now waiting for drying before doing the final trim and weight. Looking forward.

WhackyTobaccy Harvested on Day 70 from seed and it was really a pleasure growing this one. The buds sites and mass really stood apart. Just waiting for drying before a final trim and weigh.
