Beginning of week..
So I went ahead and did a late defoliation.. humidity is sitting too high in the tent.. its been around 50 - 55 % RH but it does sometimes get up to 60% RH.. removing some of these leaves should help lower the RH AND lower the chances of getting mold.. these are gonna be some fat colas.. and those are the ones mold can creep up on.. doing my best.. dehumidifier just cant keep up.. but I also dont run it inside the tent due to the heat that thing and it's transformer give off when it runs for over 24 hours or so.. but she shouldn't mold.. I've got 3 fans inside just moving air.. but of course, sometimes that isn't enough.. but we will see how this goes.. may even add another fan.. keep it on the floor of the tent an point it up.. we shall see! But damn she smells so amazing.. i can smell alot of similarities from the Mandarin Cookies in here.. which also has Mandarin Sunset as a mother.. just as this one does.. but you can smell the skunk along with it.. but not as powerful as the citrus.. aw man the citrus.. love that shit.. I even chewed on a trichome covered fan leaf.. very delicious! So glad I have 9 more of this strain and a few others from ETHOS.. next run may be some Aura Genetix.. I've gotta see what fast versions are all about.. I bougt some of the Peach Bellini.. should be pretty epic.. keep an eye out for that diary after this one!
Mid week..
Lower branches are getting plenty of light after the defoliation. The smell is getting intense. My carbon filter has began to smell like shit lol. Not literally.. but it stinks.. maybe like rotten skunk or something.. I've ordered a new one but I took that smelly one off for now.. so the whole block smells like member berries right now till the new filter comes in.. tomorrow. I couldn't figure out what the smell was untill i accidentally got my face into the exhaust fan wind.. smelled like rotten skunky shit.. lol. I guess I forgot things need to be changed out every so often.. just figured "air" running thru it wouldn't make it crap out so fast. Been maybe 8 - 12 months.. something like that. Never used one before this.. but running some ETHOS, it is a must! So citrusy! Purples are slowly coming in. She really reminds me of the Mandarin Cookies I grew.. but I also think the Mandarin Cookies was heavier on the Mandarin Sunset phenotype side.. and this one is pretty similar. Scent, growth, stretch.. but I know I cant say for sure that's what it is.. this is just what I believe is going on. But wow.. such a beautiful plant.. I've had to run a a few twist ties to other branches in order to keep them from flopping over, leaning on eachother and the sides of the tent.. should have scrogged I guess lol.. live and learn tho.. but so far its not too bad.. but this early on shows me what I might have to be dealing with in the next couple of weeks cuz they are beginning to get STACKED! I've said it before, and I'll say it again... ETHOS for the win π
Later that day...
Wow.. going back in again and now she smells just like the Early Lemon Berry! Wth! How is that even possible?! She is doing amazing things! Some calyxes are beginning to turn purple. Some of the top leaves are as well. Tried to get some decent pics of it.. but I guess I cant figure the new phone out.. as you can see, some pics are a little blurry. And sometims the capture is delayed behind the flash and I still get a dark pic as if it didnt even flash.. but whatever.. I can't wait to see what she has to offer! Such a gorgeous girlie! So happy and excited for this one!
End of week..
Nothing left to do now but feed/water for about 1 more week and she will be ready for the 2 week flush!.. I normally like to just water as normal (without nutes, duh) for the entire 2 weeks and still keep checking runoff.. maybe FloraKleen once a week and then just water till harvest! So far, I am starting to see some milky! Still mostly clear, but that means she is getting closer! So excited! This girl really smells just like the Early Lemon Berry I grew! But still with a bit of sweetness to it too! Aw man I can't wait! Anyways... on to the next week!...

Finally found a balanced Nute mix 3-4 ml cal-mag 3-4 ml floranova bloom. The smell outside is wonderful where the vent exhausts. old leafs are being used up for energy, as the buds fatten looks normal for this plant. Whole this is top heavy now when it comes time to water the 3gal pot hardly keeps it upright. This is a 20% soil mostly coco mix so watering daily 1-2 times with 1.25gal.

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

βThe Wockβ 7 Weeksπ€πΎ Ladies are crushing its! Iβve for sure found 2 phenols I want to keep going based on structure and growth. The first was actually going to be a throw away. I didnβt like how lanky she was in her solocup stage. I instead topped her to slow down lateral grown and threw her in a 2 gallon bag to do her thing. She is now in a 7 gallon bag and has the best structure of them alll IMO. My 2nd pheno is a Tri-leaf mutation and it throws tops like no other! The perfect mother plant and is why I chose her as pheno #2. The 2 plants that were topped at the 5th node are bushing out more and more, just like it like it. There are 2 natural growing plants are doing great as well. They have nice bushing with one main cola. All plants will be defoliated 5 days before flip. The nose coming from these ladies is LOUD and I mean LOUD! Sour Candy and Burt Fuel! Iβll be taking cuts and flipping these ladies soon! Happy Growing PSGX Family! πPSGX to the π #Phant0m

Sorry for the late update, everyone. Thank you for checking out the garden.
This lady has absolutely exploded! I am anxious to see how her buds stack up over the coming weeks. She has been drinking and feeding so much lately that I went ahead and bumped her up to 75% nutes instead of just 50%. We will see soon how she handles them. I was getting crazy pH swings (down to 4.4) because of how heavy she had been feeding. With the tap water I have, the new nutes measure about 850-900 ppm, but tap is about 200, so ~700 ppm of actual nutes. Feel free to hit me up with any comments or questions.
11/21 - Uploaded video showing canopy density and frequency of bud-sites. This lady was only topped once.
11/22 - Uploaded new shots of canopy (48 hours after bumping ppms)
Thanks for stopping by the garden, and , as always, Happy Growing!

Ok just finnished a blunt of this a out an hour ago, and I do not smoke blunts lol
But it seems only right too do a real smoked reveiw ,
So the fbt7 has been dry now for about 2 weeks and in a jar and today was the day too take the first bud too try so I rolled a fat one " fat one in photos lol ,
So for me the flavour just isn't there yet and am hoping that will come after a cure ,
So I smoked this all too my self and qiukly ,
Within a few minutes I went white as a ghost as was twitching the the corner hehehe,
This is very strong bud and I would go as far as saying it's probably the strongest bud I've had in years ,
I am what I would describe as a joker smoker , as I turn my bud into oils and do not smoke it ,
But any serious cannabis smoker will absolutely love this strain ,
Well done fast buds and thank you :)

420 Fastbuds
FBT2301 Week 4
Weekly update for these two beautiful plants. Both seem about the same height though one is definitely more stacked. I did do a major deforliation on both taking off most bigger fan leafs, even though you can't tell. I'll probably do another mild one as they transition into flower as I'm starting to see pistols forming. I did up the water/feeding to 2000ml every other day alternating from nutes to just ph'd water. All in all Happy Growing

Things are coming to an end for pheno #3! Sheβs starting to fade out nicely and her smell is ripe. Iβm thinking another week or two weeks max before she gets chopped!
Iβm currently feeding with plain water and microbes to let this girl finish out nicely π

Week 6 Veg
Their last full week in the veg tent before they'll be flipped to flower. The Surf Purp siblings are looking very healthy and showing different traits and structures allround. I'm thinking #3 could be a man as it's growing quicker and taller than the rest. It's not a reliable way of sexing, and could still be female so until we see it's flowers, we won't know for sure.
Remo Micro and Grow have been increased, along with MagNifiCal to see how they react. By the end of the week they seem to be in perfect health. I regularly move them around the tent and turn them daily to ensure the entire plant gets an even amount of light, promoting even growth from all of them. This is to ensure each plant keeps a level canopy and doesn't start to lean to one side when growing towards the light.
Looking forward to getting these in flower!
Thanks for following and happy growing! πΊ

This week I finished the last clones, hoping to see some great phenotypes. I plan to keep the best ones, make a selection, and keep the best ones, then plant more to select the best and discard the rest. Next week, for flowering, I've raised my light to its maximum height (I don't use a filter inside the grow tent; I have the whole room under one filter) and to 50% power to give them a little extra boost these last few weeks and improve their growth. I love having the information on my phone to know what's happening with my babies at all times.

Flowering day 7
since time change
to 12/12 h.
Hey guys :-)
The lady is developing very well.
2 g of Bio Bloom from GHSC were added last week, which is repeated again in week 3 with 1 g.
The small white dots and stones that you see everywhere on the plants come from the release of the ladybug larvae and the beneficial insects against tripe and spider mites :-)
I hope they will do their job well ππ» .
It was poured twice with 1 l each time.
Next week the lowest shoots will be removed π.
Until then, have fun with the update.
Stay healthy πππ»

What an amazing auto to grow.
She gave no problems whatsoever.
She loved her weekly compost extraction watering and responded brilliantly after each.
Although slightly overshadowed by her growing room partner, she still managed a pretty good yield
Weighting in at 52.3g of flower, probably the dencest and hardest buds I've grown so far.
Also pulled 18g of trim for extraction.

01/26 No pictures this week because I'm doing multiple days of time lapse photos. Next week should have some yummy vids and photos.
Plants have been doing well. Topped all of the plants between 01/20-01/23, except Berry, which will get topped tonight. Berry has had a very strong rebound. Still very pale in comparison, but is showing strong vertical growth. Vigorous growth of lateral shoots in most plants except for one of the WW. (iirc, it's WW 3) The tallest WW with the widest node spacing has had extremely poor lateral growth, even at the topping site. Likely another 2-4 weeks before mothers will be a clone-ready, based on observed growth.
I prefer DWC and haven't done soil for a very long time. It's shocking how much slower growth rate is in soil. A good thing in the long run, because pruning a mother plant in hydro is a PITA. At the same time, I want these plants to hurry up so I can toss clones into a SOG test. My plan is to take 2 clones of 4 plants and flower them all in one 14-gallon tote.
01/28 I had some issues with the timelapse because I didn't set the intervalometer correctly and it eventually went weird after running for over 36 hours and started taking pics every 5 minutes. Things have been fixed and I have add a video from 01/24.
I am going to trim some fan leaves tonight and decided to flower 2 cuttings each from the two Bananas.

I used half the recommended dose of Indo products for each plant through this grow. The video quality gets better as i upgraded phone sometime soon. The monkey juice is half recommended making it every week rather than full dose every two. The sticky bandit was fed with it every week at half dose till later on.

The bud sites are just covered in tricomes, I had my magnifying glass out to check the colour and most are milky but not as much as I thought by going by the pistol coloring, as they are mostly brown.
There is a more of a spicy dank smell to her now and the fan leaves have mostly died or are close to dying.
Hopefully I can start the flush process soon but will not do this till I'm happy with the tricome colouring.

Hey now, hope everyone is having a great weekend. This week went great for the 5 mainlines. I got the final toppings completed for all the ladies, I got them done on the Sundae Driver and Red Hot Cookies on day 38, and the Durban Nights, Green Crack, and the Bubble Runtz topped on day 40 for the final time. At this point there is not much more training left to do, just some minor LST to try and keep all 8 tops per plant level, and some minor defoliation along the way. I am planning to Veg them for 1-2 weeks and flip to flower probably sometime in week 8 depending on how fast they grow. I do have them all on milk crates which are 10" each so I will place them on the floor and adjust the light power probably about the time I flip to flower to accommodate the stretch.
I am still feeding GH nutrients, silica, cal mag, and maxi grow. I will transition to flower nutrients approximately one week after flipping to flower. I have found that it is important to continue feeding plenty of Nitrogen through the stretch. The only way I would transition sooner is if I was running out of vertical space.
Still very pleased with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 69% and the plants seem very happy and healthy. The heat and humidity are finally letting up in my region so it is nice to be able to open some windows and drop the temp outside the grow tent.
I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! πͺ
