A-Day 53 (into week 8) B&C-Day 49 (end of week 7) A - She is stacking well, and feeling greasy! The smell is coming on stronger everyday, frost is just starting to build up. There is a distinct transition as the leaves go through veg to early flower to late flower. Uniform all around, not very tall, but she is hardy and thiccc! B- Full flower now, so many tops! She has shown to be a slower flower developer than A, but the flowers she are developing are almost completely uniform all across the 🌱! I assume because there are so many they will be a little slower. I put her ties back on, and the middle shoots exploded with new stretch and growth, so she is still in that stretch/flower stage. C- what can I say, patience is a virtue. She is looking lush and vigorous. With this being a slightly longer to finish auto strain, she has had time to recover from a) being a runt, B) having slow growth, c) having almost no training and lighter nutrient feeds her whole existence. This is also my control for Topping, she was not, A and B were. This strain is clearly hardy and able to withstand multiple techniques, we’ll see what the end the result is compared to her sisters. All three plants received a full nutrient feed x2 this week. That was: 3 gallons dechlorinated water mixed with 12 ml Micro, 12 ml Bud, 20 ml Grow, and 6 ml Sensi Extra CalMag, PH’d to 6.2. And another very low feeding of 1/3 that mixture mixed into 3 gallons of water. Ive heard many growers who instead of just watering, they will do a much lower strength of nutrients included in their watering, and ultimately never not feed their plants nutrients until flush. Thoughts?

Es läuft prächtig. Die Photos sind auf Geländerhöhe, also über 80cm. Der 80 Liter kübel: um die Kronen zu öffnen, hab ich die je 2 Haupttriebe von fat Banana nach außen gebogen und an stöcken fixiert. Die Lemon skunk wurde schon durch LST an den Rand des Kübels gebracht. Larry ist auf gleicher Höhe gewesen und wurde genauso behandelt. Die ak bildet 6 Gleichhohe Haupttriebe und 4 untere Seitentriebe, wird schön buschig.auch hier wird demnächst die Krone geöffnet. Die Photos wachsen so gut, dass ich bald das 3. Und somit letzte Mal toppen kann. Die automatics: Die 3 Apple fritter Auto bilden dicke blüten und haben angefangen, stark zu riechen. Die kleinste (28cm) hat den dicksten mainbud und wirkt insgesamt sehr gedrungen. Wohl, wegen dem schlechten Wetter am Anfang der Vegetationsphase wuchs sie nur langsam. Die zwei anderen sind 59 und 63cm und wurden mit LST gut zum verzweigen gebracht. Die 4 fat banana Auto kommen gut in Schwung, aber haben noch nicht die Blütenmasse, die ich erwarte. Geruch wird langsam stärker. Die tropicana Cookies purple Auto haben alle 3 eine schöne Struktur entwickelt und bei 2 von 3 schon dicke blüten hervorgebracht. Eine scheint ein anderer pheno zu sein, der in diesem Stadium relativ kleine buds zeigt. Mittelstarker Geruch, etwas fruchtiges bemerkt man schon. Wetter ist gerade wechselhaft, soll aber sonniger werden in den nächsten Tagen. Wir werden sehen. Es läuft ziemlich gut 👍 bis nächste Woche ✌️

Her buds are starting to fill in nicely, she is centered now with two nets and has the tent all to her self! Humidity has stabilized recently besides power surges in the room and power outage from a storm. Think it was from the dehumidifier I had in the room outside of the tent. Recently put a 4 pack of vivo sun 24 watt lights under the canopy to help prevent popcorn buds.

And we are off to the races. This lovely Moon Walker Kush will be our mother plant and I will be taking clones from it repeatedly. My flower room will cycle back and forth between my Sunset Sherbet and Moon Walker kush. I am excited to get these diaries under way. Also check out my Instagram page as I’m doing an awesome giveaway! @kind_budz_crops

DAY 63 / 9 weeks of flowering. Last pictures of these sativa's. Ready to harvest 😛 Not all plants are equally ripe.. Some plants have hard ripen buds. But some plants could use one or more extra weeks of flowering, 😶 The fragrance varies widely. From fruity candies to strong diesel scent. 😊 The size and appearance of the plants also varies greatly. Not really suitable for SOG. 😪 This week only water. 😨 Low RH% 40-45 --------------------------------------------- Plant size and description : #1 89cm Promising in the first weeks, but ultimately only a small plant with a low yield.😥 #2 144cm Monster-tall beautiful large sativa-like plant, with beautiful fat buds. I love her. 😍 #3 144cm By far the most typical sativa plant. Enormous length with loose foxtail buds. Could use a few more weeks of flowering. 😵 #4 129cm Tall plant with fewer buds. Maybe because this girl is in the corner of the growing room where she doesn't get that much light. Nice and ripe anyway.😳 #5 117cm Beautiful semi-tall plant. The buds may not be as fat, but they are nicely ripe. 😉 #6 92cm Very photogenic rather small plant. The buds seem to spiral up to a fat top. 😃 #7 123cm Large plant with many sativa influences. Pointed hard top studded with trichomes. 😛 #8 124cm Like # 7, a nice big plant but with leaf greenery woven into the buds. 😋 #9 102cm Half to rather high plant endowed with one of the most beautiful buds. Sativa-style bud, but swollen, hard and ripe. Magnificent! A lust for the eye.😍 #10 65cm Small plant. Lower yield. Many brown hairs. Pretty ripe. 😄 #11 71cm Very small even thin plant. Pointed small tops. Undoubtedly the plant with the least yield. Still lovely. 😊 #12 111cm Semi-tall plant. Floppy side branches, but really nice buds. 😀 #13 113cm One of my favorites. Beautiful plant with very fine decorative flowers. Very fresh and tasty appearance. Delicious! 😍 #14 92cm Rather small plant, but with firm hard ripe swollen buds. Yummy. 😘 #15 126cm Incredible plant with a fist-sized huge super-fat head top. But also beautiful side branches with thick buds. Exteme heavy yielder! 😝 #16 88cm Small plant in the corner with relatively many buds. Pointed head top. 😚

Week 4:Got the new mammoth nova 720W light installed. Trying out the green spectrum. A few reviews said it has the ability to penetrate to the lower nodes because of the green. It’s definitely way hotter than my 300w Evo4 so having to adjust some things to manage heat. Outside temps 68-70 inside temps 75-77. I can get them down lower but have to open doors and keep fans at near max. Have it set at 8/10 at about 24 inches of height and so far adjusting well. Plants are starting to frost over and smells are mixed. 1/4 has a very skunky pheno the rest are way more pleasant and fruity. Excited to see the colors start to bleed through as the leaves are already showing signs of purple.

Week 11 Jan. 13 - 19, 2020 Jan. 17, 2020 I'm a few days late updating week 11. So here it goes. I harvested the 3 Zkittlez plants. I enjoyed growing these. They didn't get as tall as I'd liked but that was my fault, I kept my lights too close during the early stages of the grow. I learned that these auto flowers don't not need to be LST'd. My Zkittlez #1 I over stressed and it yielded out only half of what the other plants did. Of the other two plants...one was LST'd and the other was left to grow more naturally with very little training. They both yielded within 1 tenth of an ounce of each other. Final dry weight is 2.5 oz. Could've been better, but it's my first time and I learned a lot. Here's a link to my diary for Zkiitlez if you'd like to check out my first grow experience in more detail. https://growdiaries.com/diaries/44659-fastbuds-zkittlez-auto-grow-journal-by-weedwacker/week/212148 Looking forward to harvesting my Californian Snow plants which still fattening up and putting on major trichomes. No amber trichomes but wow the plants are frosty and they have a strong pungent smell. When the main cola is bent a little sideways it really begins out the smell. The smell is like a gassy fuel, diesel fuel, strong chemically smell. I love it. CS #3 is giving me some problems. The pics might show it. The leaf tips are curling up and thr leaf edges are turning brown. Not sure if I can correct this befor harvest. It's late into flower. I may just ride it out until then. I've topped dress once weekly for the last 4 weeks with kelp, and a blend from roots organic for bloom 4-6-3.

1-11 At the end of the day i chopped her down, did a small wet trim removing some big leaves, and hang the buds to dry. 2-11 Temps: 19.3 to 20.5 degrees Humidity: 55% to 64% 3-11 Temps: 17.1 to 20.4 degrees Humidity: 54% to 66% 4-11 Temps: 18.1 to 19.6 degrees Humidity: 62% to 66% 5-11 Temps: 17.9 to 20.1 degrees Humidity: 56% to 64% 6-11 Temps: 17.6 to 19.4 degrees Humidity: 59% to 67% 7-11 Temps: 17.8 to 19.2 degrees Humidity: 60% to 66% 8-11 Temps: 17.4 to 19.9 degrees Humidity: 58% to 67% 9-11 Temps: 17.8 to 20.1 degrees Humidity: 62% to 64% 10-11 Temps: 18.2 to 20.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 65% 11-11 Temps: 18.7 to 20.4 degrees Humidity: 57% to 65% 12-11 Temps: 18 to 20.1 degrees Humidity: 54% to 66% 13-11 Temps: 17.8 to 20.2 degrees Humidity: 61% to 67% Started trimming today. 14-11 Finished trimming. I was afraid of finding a lot of budrot, luckily it was only the one cola. The buds are very frosty, the bottom at the base of the branch looks a bit brownish on some buds, i inspected it with a microscope and didnt find any mold or weird things. There are a lot of amber trichomes tho. I think that's why it looks brown like that. It smells and smokes good, so i think its fine. If someone thinks otherwise, let me know! End results: Buds: 92 Grams Small Buds: 18 Grams Trim: 16.7 Grams Total weight of the buds: 110 Grams. I calculated that i used a total of 72.3 watts this grow, that makes it 1.52 grams per watt! Very happy with the end results, and its by far my personal record hahaha.

09/10: The are both still much behind where i would expect them to be right now. I think maybe this strain just produces much smaller plants than im used to? Not sure. The run is actually starting to look as big as the other, just shorter. I havent yet decided if i want to take the little one to flower. I will be transplanting tomorrow, and will decide then. 09/12: I transplanted one today. Im bot going to repot the little one. Oddly enough they are both already showing signs of preflower. Admittedly, I have only grown like 4 autoflowers ever, but I am very surprised by how soon these are transitioning. And frankly i dont like it. Would have expected another two weeks for veg development before this started. She is going to be a very small plant likely.

I used half the recommended dose of Indo products for each plant through this grow. 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. Topped with Black Earth. Started top feeding Goguano Super Bloom 2-9-5
