This was my first multi-strain grow in my new appartment. I am living in a country where Cannabis is still prohibited for recreational use and even medicinal users have to go through major repressions before they may obtain their medical license. This is the main reason why I will not be doing frequent updates on my future grows. However, I decided to give you guys the harvest results and I am always willing to connect with people- especially if you are looking for a fresh assistant cultivator and will help me moving to your country ;-) (Have seriously been in contact with Canadian authorities but it is super hard to migrate if you openly try to get into the legal cannabis business. You will most likely only be able to move if you are a doctor, engineer, craftsman or teacher). Now to the grow- Since my 2nd grow that has been approximately 3 1/2 years ago I couldn't resist Fastbuds. I am the type of guy to do a lot of research on the internet before I decide for a strain or a product. Back then, my research ended up with Gorilla Glue Auto which was by far the best weed I've seen. And this after traveling to Amsterdam for more than 10 years and never having smoked or grown an auto before. The resulsts were so impressive that my friends kept asking me for months, if and when the Gorilla will show up again! What was grown? West Coast OG Kush - 111.9g / Girl Scout Cookies - 88.8g / Stardawg 81.7g / Pineapple Express 211g / Gelato 17.8g (single cup) / Red Poison (Sweet Seeds) 11.8g (single cup) - dried weight in total: 523g with 430 watts of Sanlights Q6W 1st gen (2x) in my 1.44 m² tent with a white coating. Relative Numbers: 1,22 g/W/plant - 363,19 g/m² - 298,61 W/m² Chopping Days on Stardawg: day 77 / WC OG + GSC + Stardawg + Gelato + Red Poison: day 88 / Pineapple Express: day 123. Nutrients by "mills" (full set) and flush of 2 weeks (the Stardawg only got flushed for one week due to being too mature already but appeard to be the cleanest and most mellow smoke in the end). The Pineapple Express was so intimidating for an auto, that I first believed it was a photoperiod plant that just reacted well to LST. In fact, the plant was in Veg for 8 Weeks and was done flushing and chopped on day 123! Thats week 17.5. The appearance of the plant was just scary, it was super heavy and the stems starting falling down due to the massive weight of the many main colas that evolved. While I was unhappy at first, thinking this might be a weak genetic, the plant just needed its time to fully develop. The smell of the plant was absolutely stunning while still alive and seriously .. It just smelled like a super mature, juicy, sugary Pineapple with some exotic/tropical hints that went into the papaya-direction. However, after the drying and curing for a little longer than 2 months now, the terpene profile changed. The plant smells moreoverly creamy and floral with some sweet tropical hints and a light pineapple aftersmell. I hope to get some feedback and see, if the "harvest diaries" are appreciated here. If people like it, I will do more harvest results in the future. I apologize for not having more pics/information about the other plants but after a little incident I had to delete all my footage from 2 of my storage media and these few pictures are all I have left. I basically lost each single picture and video of the past 4 years, which is kinda depressing. But safety first, if your country is still ruled by right-wing people that want to retain their 1930'ish mindsets. Germany.. 💩 Currently growing Wedding Cheesecake, Orange Sherbet, Gelato, Zkittlez and Blackberry - all by Fastbuds. I felt in love with these guys! There should've been another Gorilla Glue auto, but I had very bad luck on the germination and lost 4 seeds in a row in the same environment that the other ladies loved. Don't be depressed though its always possible to get a bad pack with less matured seeds, happened to me several times with other companies and only once with fastbuds.
