LED dimmed down to 40%, i.e. 48 Watt. Tatanka Pure CBD Seed died on 2nd day (watch Video). Replacing it with Painkiller XL and Northern Light auto - hopefully they spout fast and healthy this time.

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 4/19- Here we go into the 4th week from seed for the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower and despite some less than ideal weather, she's doing remarkably well! It's been cool so I'm only watering every 2-3 days right now. 4/20- 🍃HAPPY 420 FAM!🍃 4/21- The Wedding Cheesecake continues to do well with good color and vigor considering the cooler weather we're having right now. 4/23- I gave her a good watering today and am getting ready to get some straw to spread over her soil mound to help keep the soil moist and reduce watering frequency. 4/25- There's another week on the books and the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower from FastBuds is starting to come into her own now. The next few weeks should see her starting to take off hopefully! 😎🤞 Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Week 2 (7-2 to 13-2) 7-2 Watering: None. No pictures. 8-2 Watering: 70 ml. 9-2 Watering: 20 ml. No pictures. 10-2 Watering: Kush#1: 62 ml. Kush#2: 65 No pictures. 11-2 Watering: None. 12-2 Watering: Kush#1: 70 ml. Kush#2: 68 13-2 Watering: Kush#1: 68 ml. Kush#2: 68

This little plant is turning out to be some really pretty looking stuff with a great fruit smell like pinnapple and some skunk smell on the back end. The pics don’t do it justice the colors in the calex of the buds is super strong

420Fastbuds FBT2304 Week 9 Hello everyone from far and wide on this beautiful planet. Weekly update for these twins. Both seem to be in mid flower on cruise control with no big issues present. I'll most likely stop feeding nutes this week and just go with ph'd water after that till harvest. All the colas on both are super chunky so it'll be exciting to see how the next week or two turn out. All in all Happy Growing

Hey ihr Lieben! Nach 10 Tagen Trocknung habe ich das Curing begonnen. Die Äste haben geknackt und mir signalisiert, dass sie bereit sind. Nach 5h Handarbeit war ich dann fertig. Mega anstrengend :P! Aber hat sich sehr gelohnt :). Trotz das ich dieses Mal anstatt mit mineralischem Dünger mit einem ein Komponenten-Dünger gedüngt habe (Hesi Bio-Bloom), habe ich sogar mehr herausbekommen... Bin sehr zufrieden :). Nach dem Curing habe ich das Material in die Terplocbags gepackt und lasse sie nun dort schön fermentieren - das hat letztes Mal sehr gut geklappt und kann ich nur empfehlen. Danke an alle die mich bei meinem 2ten Run begleitet haben, ihr seid die Besten! Mir hat es auch mega Spaß gemacht und ich freue mich schon darauf, meinen 3ten Run mit euch zu teilen - mehr Infos dazu kommen bald.

Today I trimmed the tops of the plants. development is good. Tomorrow I will increase the amount of light. Day 14. Tomorrow I will start spraying with Delta 9 and get ready to start flowering. Let's move on. =)

we are entering the 3rd week of flowering. she looks healthy and continues to feel well. the buds are getting thicker and thicker. this week she was given a homemade fertiliser made from aquafaber, coffee grounds and bannan peel. she really liked it. and in addition to the biobizz fertiliser schedule, she is given biobizz topmax once a week.💪😋 i did a bit of lollipopping.

3 semana en flora de las autos las demás están empezando a florecer algunas más rápidas que otras pero todo muy parejito

Day 19 since flip, not much to report. Top dress today of 4-8-4 rose and flower mix from down to earth with a little worm castings. Almost done with stretch. Back two are Gary Poppins (Gary Payton x Red Runtz). One on the left is stretching to the moon, definitely a Gary leaner, and the one on the right turned out to be the smallest plant of the five, definitely a Runtz leaner. Plain ph’d tap water and that’s it 🌡️: 77-80 F 💡: 65% @ 20 inches 💦:60%

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G

Everything looking good...

Seit ca 10 Tagen nur mehr Wasser. Herbst ist voll im Anmarsch! 🤓 Freue mich sehr. Den Pflanzen geht es sehr gut. Sie wurden seit Anfangs der Woche nur von unteren Topfseite gewässert. Meine Theorie dazu das der Dünger der sich im Boden noch enthält richtig genutzt wird. Gestern wurde von oben gewässert. Mir ist somit auch aufgefallen das die Pflanzen nicht mehr so durstig sind. Ich denke mir ich werde noch ca. einen Wochen ergänzen. Ich machte die Pflanze von oben bis unten in Herbstfarben sehen. Hoffe mein vorhaben es noch länger hinauszuziehen stellt sich positiv heraus.

Surf Purp Week 6 Flower The last week before flush. All nutrients apart from PK and sugars have been stopped. This brought the ppm/EC down, plus Remo Bloom was reduced slightly now they're not so hungry. With that being said I'm still using a lot more with this line than I'm used to. Only because the remo nutrients feeding chart lists them so strong, which I'm already a lot lower than. In future I'll try reducing them and see how they cope and perform, but that's just part of dialing it in to your own specific set up. Now that they're close to flush they're starting to get slightly more pale, with #2 and #4 showing some purpling too. This is because they are slowly coming to the end of their cycle, so they no longer need heavy feedings and are now eating less and beginning to cannibilise. They're all very frosty and giving off an insane amount of smell. At this point I'm more or less certain that #4 is a keeper, with the most unique terpene profile out of the 4 females. It smells like rotting candy/fruit with a lot of gas ⛽ it's also a close call between #1&2, as they're very similar to each other yet so different to #4. These two have the sweetest, most pungent smell of blueberries but with very slight differences between them that could change more throughout flush (and even after drying and curing). The keeper from these two will more than likely be decided after drying and curing. One or two of the main cola's on #4 are way too close to the light, with one top bud showing clear signs of burning. When you look closely, parts of the burns are brown as you would expect, and others are bleached white. These are both from heat and light damage, and aren't ideal. But, it's only the one bud on one plant so I'm not going to stress over it. In fact, she's smelling that incredible that you wouldn't even know! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🦊

I love this strain from cult classic, I grew her mother last run and fell in love with her terps; sherbert, vanilla, rubber, gas, and funk. Super easy to grow, beautiful colors with the right pheno and lighting.

🍒 Lemon Cherry Gelato — Week 10 (Week 6 Flower) 12/12 from seed | No veg | Full expression phase ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — From Seed to Structure This run followed the same philosophy: straight 12/12 from seed, minimal interference, maximum observation. From early on, these girls showed vigor, tight internodes, aggressive lateral growth, and a natural tendency to bush out heavily while still pushing vertical dominance. What we built over the weeks: • A dense, multi-layered canopy • Strong branching capable of supporting weight • Healthy root zone driving consistent uptake And now, in week 6 flower, everything is being converted into mass, resin, and expression. ⸻ 🌿 Defoliation Session — Opening the Beast This week was a big moment. You brought them into the studio and made a bold call: deep defoliation (fan leaves with stems removed) Leaving: • Bud sites fully exposed • New growth intact • Air channels opened through the entire plant This was not just aesthetic, it was functional: • Improved airflow through a very dense structure • Light penetration reaching lower and inner bud sites • Reduced humidity pockets inside the canopy With plants this bushy, this move shifts the system from crowded to optimized. They are now set up to focus energy directly into flowers. ⸻ 🌸 Calyxes & White Hairs — Flower Construction Mode Now we are seeing real flower formation. Calyxes are the core of the bud, each one a potential resin-packed structure. At this stage: • They are stacking tightly along the branches • Forming early bud density • Beginning to swell, but not yet at peak size White hairs (pistils) are everywhere, and that is exactly what we want. They signal: • Active reproductive phase • Continuous flower site expansion • Ongoing energy push into bud production Bright, fresh pistils means the plant is still building, still reaching, still producing. ⸻ ✨ Trichomes — Resin Factories Switching On This is where Lemon Cherry Gelato starts showing personality. We are now seeing: • Frost spreading across sugar leaves • Resin glands forming on calyx surfaces • Stickiness increasing day by day Functionally, trichomes are: • Protection from UV, pests, and environment • Chemical factories for cannabinoids and terpenes Right now they are mostly clear to early cloudy, meaning: • Terpene profile is starting to develop • Potency is rising, but not fully matured This is the production phase, not the ripening phase. ⸻ Nutrition — Driving Heavy Output These girls are feeding like monsters and your numbers show it. EC: 2.9 High, but clearly being handled without stress. Your stack: • Terra Bloom providing the PK backbone for flower development • Green Sensation enhancing density and metabolic efficiency • Sugar Royal supporting terpene expression and carbon flow • CalMag Pro maintaining structural integrity and transport under high demand • Power Buds boosting flower site activation and early stacking At this stage it is not about adding more, it is about delivering consistently. ⸻ ⚖️ pH Control — Unlocking the Feed With EC at 2.9, pH becomes even more critical. • pH around 6.5 is the sweet spot for soil bloom uptake • Lemon Kick helps bring the solution down naturally • pH Plus allows fine adjustments when needed This ensures nutrients are not just present, but available. High EC without correct pH means locked potential, and you are avoiding that perfectly. ⸻ 🌡️💧 Environment — Stable but Alive • Around 26°C • Around 60 percent RH • Strong, consistent light across the canopy Now the key detail is the leaf to air relationship, what you called leaf DPD. With dense plants, high transpiration, and external humidity support, you had a naturally balanced exchange between leaf surface and air. After defoliation: • Transpiration becomes more efficient • Microclimates are reduced • Gas exchange improves This supports stronger nutrient flow and better resin production. ⸻ 💧 Water & Environment Synergy • Water temperature at 18°C supports high oxygen availability and strong root metabolism • Outside conditions around 10°C and 84 percent humidity That external humidity is quietly helping stabilize your internal environment, making it easier to maintain balance without stressing the plants. Working with the environment, not against it. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect — Week 7 Flower Expect: • Noticeable bud thickening as calyx swelling begins • Pistils still active but clustering more densely • Trichomes moving further into cloudy • Terpenes becoming louder and more complex • Plants redirecting energy fully into flower mass Do not expect yet: • Final swelling • Significant amber trichomes • Heavy fade You are transitioning from build into early maturation, but not there yet. ⸻ 🤝 Shoutouts — From Grower to Growers Big love to: • The GrowDiaries platform for giving all of us a space to share • The community of growers exchanging knowledge and experience • The OG followers who have been here since day one • The new ones joining the journey • The supporters, the silent watchers, the loud ones, the skeptics, everyone has a place here And always: • The genetics behind this Lemon Cherry Gelato expression • The sponsors and partners supporting the process • The tools, lights, and environment making this possible ⸻ These girls are not just growing, they are performing. Week 6 flower is heavy, alive, and full of intention.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Day 1 Kosher 1 is strong, bending my strips straight..nice to LST should be a strong producer Kosher 2 is a good example of how a plant heals if the branches are snapped. Stiff branches but very strong plant
