All I can say at this point is these genetics are stellar. She is still putting on bulk and has formed some truly beautiful colas. She's showing mostly cloudy trichs at this point so I believe I may chop her next week. I am not wanting to go too far past peak THC production as I am not looking for sleep medicine with high CBN. The smell is floral and quite pleasant to behold. She's frosty and looks like she will press into decent rosin when all is said and done. She's just coasting now, drinking plain pHd water and enjoying the last of her time in the tent. Really looking forward to the cut on this one.

Still stretching.... using tap water now. Added more soil and DE. I think I read the TDS meter wrong last time, so probably way overfed. Finally had some time to retie down, but there are so many!!

Kyneme blizny skoro všechny hnede ale trichomy zatim sklenene ale zato jich tam je tri prdele..

A lot more happening this week! As shown in the pics, and as suspected, I have a manganese deficiency. I've been keeping my pH level at 6.2 in coco, manganese is taken up best by the plant below 6.0 pH. Dropping my ph level to 5.8 pH, and flushing with lower pH, hopefully it will solve the issue over the course of a few days. I made a new frame for a SCROG, with a "custom bend" in the CPVC pipe on both ends. The bend will allow me to take advantage of the slack material in the sides of my 4x4 tent. I'd previously taken 4" out of all the upright poles to shorten the tent so it would fit in the room due to low ceilings, meaning I had extra slack in my tent walls. The bend in the net frame pushes the sides of the tent out to 5 foot wide. My first SCROG net was a 6" mesh from Amazon, immediately knew I wanted a smaller mesh. Next time around I built my own with a 4" mesh and used the 4" for several grows. This time I decided to go with an even smaller, 3" mesh, and already I like it better. I don't really see myself going much smaller than 3" mesh though. It seems to work well, and any smaller and it may be too tight trying to work the plant through the opening sometimes, which if not careful, will damage the plant. I usually use a & gal cloth pot, grow off rules stated we 0had to use a 5 gal pot. Seeing as I only had 7 gal on hand, I was stuck picking up a Root Farm 5 gal cloth pot locally, as you can see, the roots didn't really stay contained, nor did they "air prune", i had to tear them off before installing the net above. On the last day of week 6 I finally got my net installed, and the plant SCROGged. I should have put the net in place a week or two earlier, it would have been easier to manipulate the plant, however the plant will still have a week to recover. I tie the net in place above the plant, and slowly lower it down, as I bend and super crop the main stalk over parallel to the net, and work all the branches underneath and spread them out. As the plant grows I'll continue to push branches back down through the net and moving them out to the next hole. This will greatly increase yields by allowing light to more bud sites, keeping all buds the same height and thus the same distance from the light. small budsites on a vertical branch, will transform into their own cola once the branch is laid on its side. Instead of a Christmas tree type of plant, with one large main cola, and smaller and smaller buds as you move further down the plant, you end up with a bunch of colas that are all close to the same size, and more importantly, the same level of maturity. The SCROG method, combined with super cropping, and defoliation has greatly increased my yields. As the plant is getting worked into the net, I'll defoliate where necessary, ie a huge fan leaf covering bud sites, however for the next several weeks I'll be defoliating so mush every night or two, systematically trimming off all fan leaves, and stripping everything below the net, and any small bud sites that wont produce well. Usually by the time I'm half way through the flower stage there are no big fan leaves left to be found. It helps with light penetration, which results in a higher quality, higher quantity yield, as well as airflow, which will help prevent White Powdery Mildew and other molds etc. Once a fan leaf is 14 days old, its ability to photosynthesize light, starts to degrade. Once it reaches a certain point, the leaf drains more energy from the plant, than it's giving the plant. My best yields have been from heavily defoliated plants, my last grow I couldn't physically defoliate quite as heavily as usual, and I ended up about 25-30% less bud than expected

Die buds bilden schon trichome und werden voller sieht sehr gut aus bis jetzt

this week is doing fine watching them grow after last week F.I.M and topping they look healthy and are recovering from past root rot problem for me calcium hypochlorite and blanking the bucket with thermal reflective material saved my grow and after all im not adding more chlorine than regular tap water since im using reverse osmosis keep your roots healthy and is basically the same as UC roots

Starting the week with most fan leaves removed and fresh water/nutrients 280ppm for now but will increase if she response well. Day 58 fed her again : 380ppm Day 60 noticed a small amount of white on the flowers turning brown...most likely nutrient burn so I added 1 gallon of distilled water to dilute. This week has been pretty laid back letting her do her thing. I plan on feeding her again in 3 days to 350ppm. She's starting to get frosty!

They're growing, reacted well to grow nutrients. smooth sailing

WEEK 5 8/16- Alrighty! Start of week five and all the ladies are in flower and starting to look sexy as hell! Even the Crystal Meth #2 in the SOHUM Living Soil that had a soil ph of 5.2-5.4 and 4.2 ph runoff on a 4 1/2 gallon flush of 7.7 ph water is doing well! I checked the ph on her soil this morning and she's at 6.4...PERFECT! I gave all the girls a drink of de-chlorinated water in the amount of 2 1/2g with 1 tsp CalMag+ added and ph'd to 6.9 split evenly between them. 8/17- Day 30- The girls are all really growing like crazy filling out their 10g fabric pots. I went through all of them today and, using the green horticultural wire LST'd the crap out of everyone! I know, I know....LST on Day 30??? I've LST'd this late before and had really good results so giving it a go this run. Gave all the girls a small drink as they were moist 2" down using 2 1/2g de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8 @ 75 deg. After I LST'd all the girls, I selectively tucked shade leaves and defoliated a couple here and there and also removed all the shitty little undergrowth down low on the main stalks. Can't believe the FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 came back from the edge of oblivion. I checked her medium(SOHUM Living Soil) ph which is still @ 6.4...whew! I think she's gonna do just fine, although not as good as her sister who's an obviously different phenotype. 8/18- Cranked up the HLG 650R's to max today. Now drawing 1300w at the wall-650w each and raised both lights to 42" high which is giving 800-1100 umols depending on what place on the canopy you check. 8/19- I administered the second dose of live Nematode's with the girls morning watering. I put the Nematodes in 2 1/2 gallons of de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8 @ 74 deg. and split it evenly between all eight pots. I tightened up the LST on all the girls to keep spreading them out and getting better light penetration into the lower canopy. 8/20- I started a batch of Compost Tea this morning- 4 cups worm castings, 1 cup of Alfalfa Meal, 1 cup Kelp Meal, 2 tbsp Bat Guano into 4 1/2 gallons of de-chlorinated water with a 6.9ph in which I added 5 tbsp of unsulphured molasses as a catalyst for the microbes. I'll brew this for 48 hours. The ladies all were moist enough that I felt safe skipping the water for today, I'll give them a light watering tomorrow, then a heavy feed with the compost tea. I went through and tucked the heck out of leaves blocking bud sites from light (this is a chore as the girls are getting BUSHY as hell!) and removed a few scattered fan leaves that refused to be tucked and were really blocking light into the lower canopy....can't be having that, need the LIGHT! 8/21- Ladies were all looking very perky this morning and the FastBuds Crystal Meth and Purple Lemonade are both getting beautiful purple shades to them especially the FastBuds Crystal Meth #1 in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate, she's absolutely on FIRE although her node spacing is very wide. The #2 Crystal Meth in SOHUM that had the ph issue with her medium seems to have recovered after I flushed the shit out of her. She's behind her sister and definitely has a different structure than the #1 phenotype. The Purple Lemonade #1 & #2 are both flowering with #2 looking way better. The #1 Purple Lemonade has some thick kushy leaves and she's a short little biatch, in contrast to the #2 which is tall and lanky with wider node spacing. The #2 Purple Lemonade is having a little issue apparently with the nitrogen level in the medium as she's getting 'claw tips' on several of her leaves and judging by her dark green coloration, she's nitrogen rich right now. I'll keep an eye on her but don't think it's a big issue at this moment in time. The Seedsman Gelato OG in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate is getting bushy and has filled out the 10 gallon fabric pot. She's got a ton of bud sites and it's a struggle training to keep all the sites exposed to light. The #2 Gelato OG in SOHUM is doing about the same as her sister but she's not quite as tall. The Seedsman Zkittles #1 slowed down on her stretch and just decided to get bushy instead! She's still in pre-flower but is very healthy and will be getting it on very soon! Her 'Sin Twisters' Zkittles #2 & #3 are beautiful and in flower. The Zkittles 'twins' were previously the shortest plants in this run but have caught up and are as tall as the Zkittles #1 @ 14". 8/22- End of Week 4! The girls got Compost Tea ( 8.1 ph, 840 ppm and 1636 EC @ 78 deg.) for breakfast this morning along with a top dress on the six ladies growing in Natures Living Soil Autoflower Concentrate / Fox Farms Happy Frog mix. The two SOHUM pots with the Seedsman Gelato OG #2 and FastBuds Crystal Meth #2 got 4 tbsp of 2-8-4 slow release dry amendments by Down To Earth top dressed and worked in by hand. I gave them each 1/2 gallon of Compost Tea after top dressing to help water in the nutrients. I went through all the girls and tucked and gently spread their branches to continue to train them as they get ready to really start flowering. The FastBuds girls are getting MORE colorful each and every day and I can't wait to open the tent each morning to see them....BEAUTIFUL!!!

Tropicana Cookies — Week 2 Flowering Tropicana Cookies enters the second week of flowering displaying exceptional canopy development and a highly efficient plant structure. The stretch remains active but controlled, with the plant directing its energy toward the expansion of multiple flowering sites distributed evenly across the canopy. Among the tested plants, Tropicana Cookies continues to stand out for its impressive horizontal coverage and canopy density. The training applied during vegetative growth has created a broad, uniform structure that maximizes light interception while maintaining excellent airflow between branches. This balanced architecture is allowing numerous flowering sites to develop simultaneously throughout the plant. Flower initiation is now well established, with pistil production increasing across all primary tops and secondary branches. The plant exhibits strong lateral growth, creating a canopy packed with potential bud sites while maintaining excellent structural balance. Internodal spacing remains favorable, supporting future flower stacking without excessive elongation. The foliage remains healthy and vigorous, with strong leaf development supporting the plant through the stretch phase. Branches show excellent strength and positioning, creating a framework capable of supporting substantial flower production later in bloom. At this stage, Tropicana Cookies is demonstrating outstanding vigor, canopy efficiency, and floral development. Its combination of lateral expansion, branch uniformity, and abundant flowering sites suggests a highly productive flowering cycle with excellent yield potential in the weeks ahead. 🌱🔥🍊 Seed: World Breeders Grower: Piperoots

The weathers been crap but could be worse. Everything is growing well. Watering is a pain but seems like I’m getting it right so far. Just need some sunshine

Bienvenidos a la semana #4 Día #25 (05/06) Salir al exterior ha vuelto sedientas a todas las plantas (también hay mucha evaporación por la parte superior del substrato) Se riega con 250 ml de agua con Bio-Grow, Bio-Bloom y Top Max de Biobizz, ya que todas las plantas han empezado la prefloración Día #26 (06/06) Las Orion F1 no están reaccionando bien al LST. El crecimiento está estancado. No se si he empezado demasiado pronto o esta strain no lo tolera bien. Decido deshacerlo y dejarlas crecer libremente Tal vez retomarlo más tarde cuando empiecen a crecer las ramas laterales... Decido añadir 2 cm de substrato "nuevo" en cada maceta porque el nivel ha bajado demasiado. Entiendo que esto también ayudará a la estabilidad ☺️ Dia #27 (07/06) Todas las plantas han tenido que volver al interior por la inestabilidad meteorológica Crystal Candy XL Auto está creciendo como un cohete! Hay que ajustar el LST todos los días. Ya empieza a parecer una araña! Me encanta cuando veo estas configuraciones en los LST de los diarios y lo estoy consiguiendo 😁 Royal Bluematic también está creciendo muy rápido Northern Lights está algo más lenta. Espero que despegue cuando llegue al stretch Las Orion F1 han reaccionado bien al LST deshecho 😂 Día #29 (09/06) Hace un día soleado y las plantas vuelven al exterior 😋 Ha hecho un día muy cálido y todas las plantas están "secas" Se riegan todas con 250 ml de agua con ph ajustado excepto Northern Lights, que al estar en maceta de tela y más grande (15 litros), se riega con 500 ml de agua ph ajustada El riego siempre alterno sólo agua ph ajustado y agua con es con Bio-Grow, Bio-Bloom y Top Max de Biobizz y ajuste de pH Crystal Candy XL Auto y Royal Bluematic siguen creciendo rápido. Muy rápido en comparación con Orion F1 y Northern Lights que van más lentas... Día #30 (10/06) Hoy ha habido una sorpresa muy especial Crystal Candy XL Auto se está volviendo morada / púrpura! 😍 Al principio pensé que lo había visto mal, porque no he visto ningún diario en que esta strain se vuelva púrpura, pero la mía lo está haciendo! 😁 Estoy muy contento porque siempre he querido cultivar una variedad morada! 😁 Además, ha entrado oficialmente en la etapa de floracion Royal Bluematic sigue creciendo rápido y adaptandose estupendamente al LST Orion F1 parece que está cogiendo algo de velocidad Northern Lights sigue su crecimiento lento. A ver si se acelera! Día #31 (11/06) Esta ha sido la última semana de vegetativo. A ver si las que van más lentas aumentan el tamaño con el stretch! Esto es todo por esta semana Gracias por leerme!

Had to defoliate again in week 5 day 32 so far we defoliated 3 times , day 19, day 26, and day 32. Start of week 6, this next 2 weeks the plants should triple in size and start crowning,and all defoliation are done.

Week 11 now and this beautiful Gelato Auto is starting to get thick.

Very late post cause I was moving Houses 😩

Started a little training, cut down the older fan leaves and topped up. I’m adding a tiny bit of root stimulator cause changed the pot size last week so it will to promote a faster growth. Gotta keep this lady low cause the box is quite small. So excited 😆

19.06.25. Day 29 LST. Used plant training clips to push back branches. Also took out some vegetation from bottom of her. 20.06 25. Day 30 She recovered without any signs of stress and is now looking beautiful. I can't wait to see how she turns out.
