The grow went really well with no issues whatsoever in terms of pH, PPMs, or lockouts. She started flowering in early week three (quite early) and as a result she didn't stretch much. The flowers were thick and dense with the main cola being approximately 3-4 inches in diameter. She was harvested at day 55 with 85% of the trichomes milky, 10% amber and 5% clear. She looks green at harvest because she was not flushed with straight water, but rather ripened with the suggested Nectar for the Gods methodology. In terms of smoke, the first smoke session was through a nice Davinci IQ vaporizer. Taste was very pleasing with some nice fruity/tropical tasting terpenes and an aftertaste that was earthy, flowery, and citrusy. The high was very, very euphoric, with a nice even head and body high with increased auditory senses.

Reviews. Nutrient
These nutrients were only used at week 3 in a very light dosage. Watered in a small dose of these nutrients for one watering.
Used very sparingly at beginning of grow.
Recharge was utilized throughout the majority of the grow. This product is amazing and lives up the claim of "Stronger/Healthier Plants in 48 Hours Guaranteed." The first time I applied Recharge, I noticed a substantial difference in the health of the plant. I had no pH lockout issues and it worked well combined with the Nectar for the Gods nutrients. In my opinion, this is one of the better microbial products on the market as it loads your soil with with organic bacteria, fungi, and microbes.
The Nectar for the Gods Organic line of nutrients is, in my opinion, second to none as it is not your typical salt based NPK nutrient line. Everything is carried to the plant by a calcium molecule. While it requires more attention to detail in terms of soil pH and PPM, it truly does add an element of beauty to your flowers and to the overall jar appeal, flavor, and quality of the harvested, dried, and cured product.

Very nice grow and harvest. FastBuds certainly lived up to its name as she finished in 55 days. Unbelievably dense and fat colas that had packed on the weight due to the Nectar for the Gods nutrients. 0

@Zannabis7, i used before this Biobizz nuts. but i cant really compare with Advanced Nutrients. im very happy about the results with AN and thinking to use this nutrients line with my future grow.
Zannabis7
Zannabis7commented7 years ago
@@frags, I know quite a few growers using the BioBizz line of nutrients. They are supposedly all organic, but i don't think they are CALCIUM based like Nectar (which makes them unique). So not to SALT based nutrients! ha ha ha 😎

@Zannabis7,yes bro i did some search i really need to produce better flowers with biggest buds. i tried to get this nectar of gods samples by your link. But unfortunatelly they answered negative about send the items to where im based.

Nice harvest and a great diary. I was just wondering did you harvest early for effects or necessity?
Tazard
Tazardcommented7 years ago
@Zannabis7, just odd that the pistols didn’t darken more first (strain perhaps). But that’s why we use magnifiers !!! I also harvest with cloudy Trichs for less couch lock.
Zannabis7
Zannabis7commented7 years ago
@Tazard, Thank you. I harvested when the trichomes said ready. I would approximate that the trichomes were 85% cloudy, 10% amber and 5% clear. I tend to like a more energetic high. Best wishes...

@Zannabis7, They might let you go with Wet weight, but I feel as though the point is to showcase your "Mega Haul" and that's always measured in dry weight. Who knows though... Worth a shot! 😉

I see what you mean properly by the size now man, she still looks great though, they all do man and they all look nice and healthy! Good set up you have going man. With the act of net mate do you just have to raise it now and again and the plant grows into it or is it a bit more fiddly then that?
Zannabis7
Zannabis7commented7 years ago
@ganjaman94, Thanks for the kind words. I really only use the net in the beginning in an attempt to bend the main stem one time only to allow the side branches a chance to catch up. After that, the net serves to help relocate side branches to the various squares in order to produce a more even canopy. The goal is to try to have a side branch in each square! Not much different than typical low stress training - pretty much the same. The net does not get moved and is generally placed at around 8" high for autoflowers. Hope this helps. If not, feel free to ask for more clarification.

Gl420growercommented7 years ago
@Zannabis7, I understand mate, thank you! In terms of the stress that it brings to the plant, would you say there is much difference between what you have done here and basic low stress training? I am aware that in can be more beneficial for yield ect.. Just not sure how much this method stresses them in comparison and how challenging it can be! Am interested in trying something different on my next run in terms of training that's sll so I am am being drawn to this method. looks like your doing a killer job man👌.. Excited to see how it finishes for you!
Zannabis7
Zannabis7commented7 years ago
@ganjaman94, Thanks again for the kind words. The net was used earlier on in an attempt to bend the main stem and allow some side branching to catch up in order to produce a more even canopy. Now it serve as support to side branches and I also direct side branches to different squares in the net to spread out the canopy evenly.

Blooming really nice mate be interesting see which pheno she turns out as the yellow more bannana one has the dankest pineapple smell ever😀👊
Zannabis7
Zannabis7commented7 years ago
@Fergie, Thanks for the great information. I didn't know about the different phenos. So your saying I likely have the more "yellow looking" pheno and you the "greener, white crystal" pheno? Mine certainly has a VERY strong Pineapple scent!
Fergie
Fergiecommented7 years ago
@Zannabis7,yeah smell is amazing mate 😀 I meant there are a few different pheno on this girl some go very yellow looking reassemble a pineapple more where second pheno I have is alot greener and more white crystals 😀you can see slight difference on my two girls 😉 but the smells are a mile apart

Hi bro , how far away is the light ?
Zannabis7
Zannabis7commented7 years ago
@BigDaddyK, Thank you for the advise. Because I am running such a high PAR, if I lower them I will get some leaf burn. As they mature and become accustom to the light, I will experiment with different light distances. For now, they seem to be responding well to the light distance. Thanks again for looking out...

BigDaddyKcommented7 years ago
@Zannabis7,I would lower them a bit 🌱 Looks very healthy tho
