Off to a good start after 1 week. Can t wait to see what she has in store for me. Heard lots of good things about this strain especially about the taste. Watering every other day at this point. I'm using a mars hydro 300 LED light. Plant Magic Soil. In 15L air pots.

Week 2 and she's going great. Looks like she's gonna be a solid plant. Pretty squat at the moment, very short internodal spacing. Not much to report, all is well with very little maintenance, just a little water every other day. Thanks for joining the journey 👍

We're into week 3 now and smooth sailing so far, she's looking really healthy. Going to add some light nutrients towards the end of the week and see how she responds. Thankfully there's a few decent diaries for this strain so I'll definitely be taking a look at some of them. Temps been a little cool this week but doesn't seem to have affected her to be honest. Just waiting for the flowers to kick in now. Happy growing!

Hey guys, we're into week 3 now and her growth has accelerated massively and she's also started to flower 👍 lovely stuff. Pretty excited to see how she grows, seen a lot of feedback about lower yields which is fine as I'm sure the flavour and effects will make up for it but I'm not expecting anything drastically lower than what I usually yield. Started a small feed this week and she seems to be responding well :) along with a bit of leaf tucking to get the penetration of light. Here she grows!

Still going well, she's gained lots of height in the past week although not a great amount of branching, I think she has 9 levels of side branching in total, my last few have been closer to 12 or 13. Not got worry though because she smells amazing, the most intense dark berry with a lovely earthy kush zing to it. I think she's on track to be one of the tastiest strains I've grown and for me flavour is everything. Upped the nute a little she seems to be ok so gonna add a little more next watering. Smooth sailing with this one all the way. All these fastbuds strains seem to be pretty consistent when it comes to quality, great stuff.

Day 38 now and I'd say we're just past the halfway mark. She's got a few more bud sites than I'd realised which is great. She's got a slight kink in the main stem after I tied her over to allow more light penetration but since she stretched a bit she's opened out a lot 👍 Not a great amount of big side branches but there's a few that look like they're gonna be nice fat nugs. Overall she's doing great and about to pack on some weight, got a bit of the purple coming through too which is nice to see. Thanks for following!

Growth seems to have slowed this week and I'm thinking it might be a problem with calcium or magnesium, I've ordered some Cal mag which should arrive tomorrow. Also using a higher dose of nutrients try give her a boost in the last few weeks. Probably looking at finishing at 10 weeks I reckon which seems long for this strain. Seen a lot of people finishing in 8 weeks. Looking like mines gonna be a bit longer, I don't mind though she smells so intense with a little squeeze, she's got a piney kush zing under the pungent berry smell. Very optimistic about this one 👍💪

Hey guys she's definitely fattening up now a little more to go I think. Started to flush a couple days ago so thinking less than 2 weeks until she's ready to chop. Frosting up massively now, lovely sparkle to her. The smell is pretty strong now, lovely and fruity. Makes for a good air freshener! Looks like she's gonna yield more than I expected too 🎉 thanks for checking in.

This Blackberry finished a bit quicker than I expected. Harvested over a week to let the lower buds mature a bit further. Started the chop on day 60 and it's been about 2 weeks. Growing was pretty easy but I'm having the same problem as before with the calcium/magnesium deficiency so I've invested in some Cal mag by shot in. Other than that though a fairly easy to grow strain with a great end product, the flavour is off the scale lovely berry kush flavour. All in a jar now for the best 4-6 weeks. Will post a weight soon.
