Hey peeps
End of week 13 and she’s still not quite ready. There are a few amber trichromes but will let her go a bit longer.
She keeps popping out more white hairs will lower the ppm’s ready for flush.
Catch ya laters 👋
@MagicMikesMeds, FastBuds say 8-10 weeks from germination but this is depedent on the growers skill, optimum conditions and nute schedule. I am a newbie grower and unfortunately stunted this lil girl. Sounds like you know what your doing 👍🏻
Started one of these awhile back and was unable to finish the grow. However, by the end of the 3rd week she showed hairs..... By the end of the 4th week they were EVERYWHERE! 23&3/4in. in height. Currently have 2 Pineapple Express (FastBuds) in queue, Diary will be up when the grow finished though.
@Kirr38,WOW sounds good to me, have read great things about this strain so fingers crossed I’ll do it justice!
I’m growing a FastBuds Pineapple Express at the moment. She’s gunna take quite a bit longer to finish but that is my fault as I think I may have made a few newbie mistakes. She is flourishing though and I’m enjoying growing her.
I have 2 more Pineapple Express beans left so hopefully the next ones will be better. Good luck with your girls
Good to see this plant doing well!
Personally I would attribute the rhizo; it's really good for vigorous rooting. Once they've established roots, they start really taking off.
Looking forward to seeing how this one goes =)
How many weeks does this strain take to finish? I have never run auto’s before as I usually start with photo period femanized seeds and then if I like the strain I will Monster Crop (taking clones from plants 3-4 weeks into flower) for the propagation of the next round. The resulting clones grow into bushy monsters without much training at all hence the term Monster Cropping. Looking good so far!!! Keep up the good work.
@SativaShell, I do a lot, and I mean a lot of reading. I grew my 1st plant in 1997, but then never touched a cannabis plant again for 18 years until I had a major spinal surgery which prompted me to start reading so I could grow my own. I like the idea of the auto seeds, but due to regulations on plant counts where I live I choose the photo period because I can structure my plant a little more in Veg to get the size I need without stunting them as you had mentioned...

Watering you girls at lights on, instead of before lights out, help with humidity control and bud rot. Keep this in mind, If you run into these issues.
@Kirr38,I did run into a humidity and low temps issue a couple of weeks ago. I got me a 2L dehumidifier, greenhouse heater tube with built in thermostat and an oscillating monkey fan. Things have improved and I’ve managed to keep humidity to roughly 50/55 and temps at 25. Will keep an eye out for the dreaded bud rot though 👍🏻Thanks for the advice it’s greatly appreciated by this newbie
Make sure to water the baby in a 3" circle around the root ball, lightly, to induce the roots to grow further out.
Let us know if you have any questions =)
