FastBuds Pineapple Express

Fo' Twenny here with another grow diary to share with all of you! This time we are running Pineapple Express Auto. I have always wanted to try this strain and I really hope it lives up to the hype! There are 21 plants in the veg tent, right now. 17 photoperiod seedlings, 3 autoflower seedlings, and an auto in mid bloom. The deets: Started in Jiffy peat pellets with Roots Organics 707 filling the Solo style plastic cups under and around the peat pellets. The soil was top dressed with .25 tsp of each: Azos, Mycos, and Re-Charge. Let's go microbes! 8/14: Germination was a success. We have a happy healthy baby girl! 👶🏼 At least, it better be a she, because she's supposed to be feminized! Thanks for stopping in and checking out my diary! Peace, love, and frosty nugs!

8/17 update: Welcome back to my garden! Thanks for following me on this journey! It has been 9 days since sowing this Pineapple Express Autoflower seed and we now have a happy healthy seedling. She appears to be one of the healthiest in the bunch. There are no apparent indications of stress or deformaties. Feeding with .2 ml/gal of RapidStart and .2 ml/gal of SuperThrive, Adjusted pH to 6.5. After adjusting pH add .25 tsp of recharge. Thanks for stopping in and if you get a chance, check out a few of my other diaries and give me a follow. Happy growin', happy harvestin', and happy tokin'! Peace, ☮️ Love, 💚 and Frosty Nugs! ❄️🌲 - Fo' Twenny

8/26 update: Welcome back to my garden! Thanks for following me on this journey with this little Pineapple Express Auto! It has been 18 days since sowing this Pineapple Express bean. She's growing quickly and appears to be one of the healthiest in the bunch 🍍. Feeding with .5ml/gal of Blue planet Gold Shield Potassium Silicate, .5 ml/gal of RapidStart and .5 ml/gal of SuperThrive, Adjusted pH to 6.2. After adjusting pH I added 1 tsp of recharge.

Fo' Twenny here with an update on the our Pineapple Express Autoflower from Fastbuds! 9/5: She has been growing VIGOROUSLY since she sprouted 8/15. She is healthy, green, and is the TALLEST plant in the garden. She is already starting to push out pistils too! Today, I transplanted from the 16oz solo cup into a one gallon Active Aqua 6" x 6" Square Pot, 8" Tall. I innocculate at the root zone using .5 tsp Mycos from Extreme Gardening .5 tsp Recharge. I sprinkled some White Dutch Clover seed around the top of the pot for a cover crop. BAD NEWS: Half of the blue diodes have gone out in the TMLAPY light. This light was actually gifted to me shortly after a friend purchased it from Amazon and realized it was too small for their space. It seemed to be serving it's purpose well for vegging photos and running bumper crops of autoflowers but it failed only four months after the warranty period ended! Weak-Sauce! Welp, looks like it's time to upgrade the 24"x48" tent to Samsung LM301H boards. I ordered a 320w straight single piece heatsink with 3 boards from Geeklight. I went with the 3k spectrum and switchable UV/IR since all my autoflowers bloom under this light.

Fo' Twenny here with an update on this monster Pineapple Express Auto bred by Fast Buds! Want to see all of the plants in this run? Check out my diary titled 'You choose the strains!" 9/7 - Day 29: She is, by far, the tallest cultivar in the garden! She is looking very healthy and didn't seem to be stressed by transplanting. This is the first auto I haven't LST'd. There really just isn't enough room in the tent at the moment and I can train her later if the gets too out of control. She is really looking great! I can't wait to run more FastBuds genetics! BAD NEWS: Half of the blue diodes have gone out in the TMLAPY light.

Fo' Twenny here with another update on our Pineapple Express bred by Fast Buds! I am trying to get more precise and add more detail to my diaries. Let me know your thoughts! Any advice, suggestions, or constructive criticisms are always welcome. Now on to the details! __________________________________ 9/16 - Day 38: Photoshoot! She is about 17.5" tall now. Thats almost 4 times taller than the photoperiod plants and is the tallest of the other autoflowers. Granted, those have been pruned; her growth rate is very impressive! She is healthy and happy with no overt signs of infestation, disease, or malnutrition! __________________________________ 9/17 - Day 39: Feed Day - I have been feeding my autos with solution used for the photoperiods in the bloom tent and I follow with plain water to dilute since autoflowers dont like the heavier feeds. She received approximately 12oz of nutrient solution. After 15 minutes I added 12 oz of plain tap H2O run through x2 KDF filters pH to 6.4. I use BlueLab pens and calibrate bi-weekly.

She just keeps stacking up and putting on weight. She isn't super frosty and not really very odoriferous at this point. Not nearly as frosty as the Fat Banana Auto that was started at the same time. I have grown strains that start slow on resin production early in flower but start spewing resin in their final weeks. Fingers crossed. For now, her strong point seems to be her fast growth which, I think, will result in a larger yield than the Fat Banana Auto. Only time will tell! Now on to the details! ⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬ Any advice, suggestions, or constructive criticisms are always welcome. 🚿 I mist the medium between feeds with plain H2O💧 with pH adusted within range of 6.1-6.5.

It's week 5, her buds are rock hard and super dense. She is starting to put out some frost and her terps are startung to shine through. Not the stringest aroma, quite yet, but you can definitely pick up on the pineapple notes. This week we will lighten up the feeds substantially and get her moving towards harvest. Let's growwww! 📝 Side Note 📝 Irealized my BlueLab Conductivity Meter has the option to switch to EC.

This auto-flower hybrid cultivar (unspecified Indica/Sativa ratio) has an expected flowering time of 63-72 days ! She is looking great, but it's hard to believe she's only halfway through flower. She is starting to purple and there's a little foxtailing happening. This is the first cultivar i have experienced foxtailing with. Can any other growers confirm foxtailing with this strain or could it something environmental? The Fat Banana is not foxtailing and, as previously mentioned, I've never experienced it before with my other cultivars. This is a new light, though, so it makes me wonder if I need to get things better dialed in. There has been no need for trimming and no need for anything else, besides giving a litlle plain filtered H2O pH within range of 6.2 - 6.5 applied between feeds.

This auto-flower hybrid cultivar (unspecified Indica/Sativa ratio) has breeder specified flowering time of 63-72 days! It was brought to my attention the flowering time is actually the estimated time from seed to harvest. I verified on the breeder's website this is accurate! Thanks @MrJones for the advice! So, its time to get her ready for harvest! Any advice, suggestions, or constructive criticisms are always welcome.

The pump sprayer is typically used in early veg, between feeds, or for lighter feeds. Most feeds are usually run through the pump and reservoir because it's faster and easier when dealing with larger volume feeds. – 2 GALLON LAWN & GARDEN PUMP PRESURE SPRAYER. * I removed the spray head due to clogs and it's just faster. – Superior Pump 91250 Utility Pump, 1/4 HP in a heavy duty 27 gallon Tote attatched to a 10 foot garden hose to an Orbit Underground 56246 Green Thumb 9-Pattern Telescoping Wand. – Aeration of the reservoir is accomplished using a General Hydroponics HGC728040 Dual Diaphragm Air Pump 320 GPH 4 Outlet attached with standard aquarium air hose to four 4-Inch Air Stone Disc Bubble Diffusers. • VEG/AUTOFLOWER LIGHTING: 320w MosterBoard V4-PLUS powered by a MEANWELL 320H-48AB DRIVER.

She was easy to grow. She never complained and required little maintenance. No topping, no training, and just some very minor defoliation. Easy peasey! I look forward to running her again!
