This plant was a breeze to grow, finished quickly, and yielded a decent amount of colorful, fruity and rock hard nugs. A crowd pleaser, this smoke goes down easy and hits hard. More indica leaning than sativa, use this flower before bed for a nice heavy sleep. Great bag appeal and taste. Excellent work by Fastbuds once again. Grow this plant with one topping early and LST as required to open the buds up to Jah. Thank you for following, thank you for liking. Thank you to the GrowDiaries team for continuing to deliver an awesome platform for us to document our work

Day 36 - It's week 5 already! The canopy is really gaining height day by day. Tied some more side branches down and adjusted the tie down on the main branch. Day 37 - Trying to figure out the correct watering amount. 1.5L was too much today will lower tomorrow to 1.2L. Day 38 - Plant is looking good today. Adjusted the tie downs on some branches. Watered with 1.3L and run off was still around 350ml so lowering tomorrow to 1.2L. Day 39 - Watering with 1.2L today. There was still no run off, I'm putting this down to the increased fan speeds, longer open tent periods and the plant growing more vegetation. My 2L watering can should arrive today, so I will be able to mix nutrients in one reservoir and water more accurately. Removed 3 of the bottom most fan leaves which had a branch large enough to support itself. Day 40 - Watered with 1.5L today. Removed 1 fan leaf and tied down a side branch. Run off was around 100ml. I also set the fan speed back to 1, as I think 2 was too strong for the plant and dehydration levels of the soil. Day 41 - Watered with 1.6L today. Run off of 400ml (25%). Getting pretty bushy now almost stretching to all sides of the tent. Day 42 - Watered with 1.4L today. Run off was 150ml (10%). She's now 32cm tall with the light hanging 36cm above the highest tips. That brings us to the end of Week 6. It looks like we are a day or two away from starting to flower properly. Bring on Week 7!

I think I did okay here. Harvest of indoor strawberry cheesecake by Humboldt seed co. I’m going to run the diary through cookies comparison. Cookies elephant trunk to run week 15-18. Going to flower in veg tent until these are done hanging

Overall everything is doing great. The Critical+ has the most trichrome coverage so far, but the DinaMed CBD+ has the thickest and densest buds. The Cream & Cheese CBD+ is somewhere in the middle - medium trichome coverage, medium density. But the Cream & Cheese CBD+ is the bushiest with the most amount of sugar leaves down the stalks with the buds. The 3 Cherry CBD Hemp plants are doing great also. They are the smallest 3 plants in group, but starting to show some red hairs. I think I'm about a month away from harvest. I'm not going to rush it, but that's what my guess is for now. I transplanted my babies from dixie cups to larger nursery pots. There are a variety of seedlings and clones going. I'll start a new diary for these babies soon with details on which strains, etc...

We shall see what happens. I definitely put way less nutrients this time around and I followed with water to make sure 😂. Also it was my first time trimming leaves or defoliating so I felt kinda bad for my poor plants but they look healthier after a nice trim so it was necessary. Hopefully not. Stressing the plants out too much. Well good luck to everyone and happy new year!!

Wowww , i cannot believe that i have come this far , it is finally week 3 of flowering and 12 week of growing !!! I have been feeding her by following the feeding schedule . She is doing very good but i had to change my grow light to increase light exposure area since the old one cannot cover the whole plant . My new magnifying glass is superb it is very handy and cheap (I got it for 4$) . I prepared this for trichomes inspection . I encounter a bug problem in this week , i spotted a few red spider mites(not sure what they’re called XD) on the leaves but luckily i spot it fast and used an organic product to prevent it before the spread is uncontrollable . This kind of insect is very common in my area , the place i live is very dry and hot which they love . So i dropped my temperature down and mist the plants with local organic pesticide . I really do not wish to mist or increase the humidity during flowering because it can cause buds rot but i have to because I know that this kind of insect is super scary and hard to prevent . :(((( Anybody with better alternatives please give me some suggestions . Day 76: There is a lot of flowering going on but i can’t see any trichomes production yet . I think the mites are all gone but to prevent it i will continue spraying the organic pesticide every 3 days or once a week.

In dieser Woche hat die Pflanze nochmals klares Wasser mit Flawless Finisch bekommen um die Blüten richtig zu spülen, was ich ca. 4 mal Wiederholt habe💧🍁 Die Blüten sind in der Woche sehr gut gereift und in den nächsten Tagen bereit für die Ernte. Der Geruch ist sehr stark geworden und die Blüten liegen förmlich in einer Harzschicht 👀 Das Terpenen Profil ist gleich geblieben hat sich nur nochmal deutlich verbessert. Es dominieren weiter Benzin, Zitrone und Süß-Fruchtige Noten ⛽️🍬🍋 An Tag 60 geht es Richtung Ende entgegen 🏁

Week 2 began very routine so far I have only watered with pH adjusted water and no nutrients yet. But looking to do a 1/4 strength feeding the next time I water. 10/26/2018 - Catzilla damaged 3 plants!!! I left the tent open for 5mins to get some water and by the time I was back the damage had been done. I am hoping they will still pull through. Any suggestion on what I can do to help save them??? Ironically the culprit appears to be my cat called Poison.... 10/28/2018 - 1/4 Strength of Nutes 3gallons (11355ml) - 6ml Micro/12ml Bloom/3.75mlCaliMagic 10/30/2018 Two days into first feeding. Plants seem to be pulling through and look good "Disco" still has some discolouration in the leaves, still unsure what is causing it. 10/31/2018 - Final day of week 2 Lots of growth since giving them nutes. On to week 3!

Grow was very easy and she pretty much took care of herself but I do think I stunted her early on which kept her fairly small but the buds are very fat and dense. Will do some more updates and the drying process goes.

Day 43 (Second Grow, Flowering Phase): Hey everyone! We’re well into day 43 of our second grow and deep into the flowering phase. 🌸 The transition has been amazing to witness, with our plants showing significant bud development. The plants are producing beautiful, dense buds, and it’s incredible to see the daily changes and the rapid development. We’ve been maintaining the humidity between 50-60%, but we’re keeping a close eye on it to prevent any issues. We’re considering whether to get a dehumidifier to bring it down to the ideal 40-50%. The SCROG net continues to work wonders, ensuring even light distribution and supporting the heavy buds. Our Timor shield mantis is still patrolling the garden, keeping pests at bay naturally. She’s become quite the guardian! The plants are looking healthy and vibrant. We're excited to see how they continue to develop over the coming weeks. Any tips or advice for optimizing this stage? Let us know in the comments!

day 5 flowering, i did some LST with rope they look healthy also transplated one into a 20L pot 2 days before they went into flowering, with soil wich has 3month fertilizer in it see how that turns out. the one in the 12L pot has thicker branches so harder to bend so im not taking too much risks on that one. they stretched a bit every day and start to go into the pre flowering stage in a week or 2 the flowers will start pop up from everywhere O.o see you next week

Three weeks into flower and things are moving along. I defoliated some of the lower branches and spread out a few branches here and there. Other than that it's the same situation as always. Nutrients are pumping and lights are beaming. Everything is running smooth and all is well with the world. Like some namaste shit going on around here at the moment. Could very well just be the calm before the storm...

This week beacause of the difficulty in controling the water temperatures and tent humidity we had early signs of pythium in the auto flower. So i treated it with one hour of 8ml per liter of H2O2 and changed the reservoir for new nutes and 0.5ml/L of H2O2, instead of great white. Besides that, everything's ok and the other 2 plants are starting to root. If the others start to show signs of root rot as well, ill change the whole grow from great white to H2O2. The Apple&Bazookiez showed signs from the beginning of a mutation. Have one strange looking leaf and 3/4 branch of shoots on the top, without any damaging, fimming or topping. Good week, good grows
