Back with another update on our Pineapple Express 🍍🚂 bred by FastBuds! 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. Probably about every other day, give or take. I typically give about 8-12 oz at a time between feeds.

She received approximately 12 oz solution. I mixed 8 gallons of solution for all the plants I have in flower. 12 oz of that was then measured and fed to this cultivar. After 10-15 minutes I added additional 12 oz of plain H2O pH to 6.3
👩🔬NUTRIENT SOLUTION👩🔬
⬇️Mixing Rundown⬇️
12 oz tap H2O through two kdf filters
Start pH: 7.9
PPM: 630
1.5 tsp/gal - Fox Farm BIG Bloom
1 tsp/gal - Fox Farm Tiger Bloom
1.5 tsp/gal - Fox Farm BEMBÉ
.125 tsp/gal - Fox Farm Cha-Ching
I always make sure pH is in the range of 6.0- 6.6 prior to adding any microbial innocclants. pH already in range, no adjustments needed.
pH: 5.8
Add 1 tsp/gal General Hydroponics pH UP
pH 6.2

Yeah, I’m thinking it’s from the new light. I’m having issues adjusting my bloomspect full spec white light. I have that and my regular (blurple) led in my tent right now, adjusting every damn day now lol.
@MrJones, I wish they had day by day updates within each week. I'd be all over that. That way I can better document my feeds too since the may change throughout the week. Sometimes I will flush between feedings or sometimes I still feed with a diluted mix. It depends on what the plants in my garden are telling me. Anyways, sorry for the rant! Cheers and happy growing!
@MrJones, I just realize I'd put the wrong date on those photos. I corrected now. I had taken new ones when I reported her on 9/5. The solo cup photos was 9/3. She's growing so fast!
@MrJones, She's at least as twice as tall as the next tallest plant in the tent. This is the first FastBuds strain I have run. I am really impressed by her vigor!
@MrJones, I cannot believe how much faster she has grown than all the photperiods and the other auto-flowers (even though the Zkittles had a later start).
Hey, @FoTwenny so my thoughts on the fox tailing, typically 3 variables that lend to this are Temps, Light (too much), and genetics I cannot speak on the breeding of this plant but when I grew it I did not experience fox tailing, your temperatures are not too hot, so maybe this girl is not liking the amount of the light - you mentioned that you are only halfway through your flower stage but I think that is no correct, Fastbuds Pineapple Express is a 10 week from seed to harvest, mine took part of 13 weeks, but I also feel it was slowed because I stunted it a bit with my aggressive training.
You can always move your plant to the edge of the light where the PFD is at its lowest and see if it helps, you may want to reach out to Fast buds - it really looks great, as all your plants do!
@MrJones, Thanks for stopping by and leaving me some feedback! Ahhh 10 week seed to harvest... Looked like it was just a 9-10 week bloom period from the website. That would make more sense to me. I appreciate your help! Happy growing my friend!
Great detail as always. I dont know where you get the time.. Or mabe i should say i am impressed on how you manage your time.. I am rubbish.. Keep it up @FoTwenny👍
Yo FoTwenny
Got a couple of seeds for these as freebies on last order ^^ if the results tempt me over ill follow up with a go on these, so do your best!
Looking great so far, next couple of weeks should be some nice progress pics on those pistils!
Peace out,

@OrganicConnoisseur420,She's a strong lady, I just transplanted her a couple days ago, but need to get back in the garden today to see how she's doing. Hoping a little more room to stretch her legs will allow her to reach her full potential!
Looking good FT. I loved the smell of this in late bloom. It was very heavy on the tropical citrus for me. Great smoke as well. Good luck the rest of the way with her.
@Treighfunky, Thanks dude! I am stoked to roll a few blunts and watch Pineapple Express while smoking some Pineapple Express. I am weird. Don't mind me!
@Smartie, No offense taken kind sir! You're good, if you start calling me dude and bro too much I might make some weird facial expressions, but I see no need to correct you. Hehe. Anyway, thanks I always appreciate a compliment on my garden! Cheers!
