This was a really fun plant to grow. Very responsive to LST and defoliation. She was a biggun and gave me 17.4oz wet. All through the flowering she smelled of nothing but fruit and orange skittles. Then later on the smell turned into more of an orange tootsie pop close to the center. After the initial dry and cure she lost some weight and fruit smell. The smell is very much a coco puff or hot chocolate mix smell. Once you grind the herb the profile really expands. It's a really smooth smoke and compliments well if you have a sweet tooth. It will creep up on you about 10 minutes after you puff so beware going hard on this one. I wish the temps in my dry room were better during the initial cure. We had a heatwave that started the day after I cut. I'm still really happy with this lady and would grow her again in a heartbeat.

All around great stuff. Haven't mentioned it to someone familiar that's had a bad thing to say.
Still finding my groove with these products. I'm trying the dual mix with the Nova family and the standard triple threat for the hydro and soil.

Tents
This tent has been very good to me. A couple of small pinhole leaks but other than that not a big concern with autos.

@Gutismoke102, A very easy strain to grow. I did have some issue with nute burn but that was on me. I'd just recommend half strength on nutrients until you see how she responds. This strain was very forgiving and like all other FastBuds strains I've grown so far she's a beast. This one truly smells like it's namesake. Specifically for me orange Skittles. I cannot wait until she finishes.

@MrJones, I'm loving growing. It's a passion I knew I had but law kept me from pursuing it.
Now that I am living it, It's even better than I imagined. I'm fascinated by this plant.

@MrJones, Could not agree more brother. Thank you for the feedback. I'm always willing to try things until I feel closer to dialed in. Best as we can ever be :)

@Treighfunky, I see so many different takes on this, I found about 55/60% Humidity and about 65F is a nice sweet spot, more airflow during the first 24 hours and very little thereafter - good news here in MI the weather temp is dropping so my upcoming harvest should be so much easier to maintain - but every time I think I have it hard wired the canna gods to send me a surprise! Good luck brother your farming is spot on!

@MrJones, Hey brother. I think this time I'm going to try just removing most of the stem and drying on a hanging rack. My temp is right around 72 degrees F (22C) and my humidity is 52%. I have a box fan pointing diagonally towards the walls to circulate the air without hitting the plants directly. I'm hoping this helps. My Wedding Cheesecake dry environment was too hot and I had no control of it for the entire week. Those buds lost a lot of density and smell profile. Wish me luck on this one.

Wow nice size for a fast buds plant. I always had hit and miss luck with them.
Great job with the grow, can't wait to see the weights.
How soon do you do a full leaf removal? Last 2 weeks?

Experimentgreencommented4 years ago
@Treighfunky, i need to get better at leaf removal...I get stuck in the photosynthetic real estate mindset. Then at harvest i have a zillion irritating leaves to deal with!π
You'd think id be used to it because my shop does defo like for hours and hours and it works there.
But at home I do a nice clean up of the bottoms and then mildly defoliate the rest throughout the grow.

@Experimentgreen, Thank you so much :)
With leaf removal I've been in a habit of picking a few here and there throughout the flowering phase and by the last week I have very minimal fan leaves and mostly sugar leaves kept for bubble hash. Also experimenting ;) with this to see how it affects the plant positively or negatively with outcome. What works best for you?
