Easy grow for the most part. This strain had a very tropical/gassy smell to it.

Hadn’t really planned on starting veg in the middle of the night but I’m an insomniac and I think they were ready. Transplanted into clay pellets pre washed and pre soaked in ph 5.8 RO water. Going to flood for 15 minutes every 6 hours. Wanted to start off very light and technaflora recipe for success didn’t exactly say what to do for early veg, so decided to go 1/4 strength to start and work up from there. Starting at roughly 50% on the dimmer and will gradually ramp up. Added a humidifier since I’m in a very dry climate. First grow, hoping I’m not overthinking this. Wish me luck. Update 3/27 Realized I didn’t have enough water in my reservoir and plants were looking pretty stretchy. Added 5 gallons of ph5.8 1/4 strength solution. Shooting for 400 ppm for week 1 of actual veg. Plants are officially a week old from dropping in soil plugs. I think I’m going to count this as start of veg since I kinda screwed up with water level. Thankfully clay was soaked when I transplanted. Update 3/30 Plants stretched a little bit yesterday and started to topple over. Spent the better part of yesterday trying to keep them upright. In retrospect I originally transplanted these way too tall. Carefully dug away pellets and replanted deeper so leaves are just above ground level. All plant root systems look healthy. Bottom left plant is looking sadder than the rest with some droopy leaves. It was the stretchiest of the bunch. Update 3/31 PH had crept up to 6.4. Added 5 gal of ro water to top off. Brought ppm up to 400 and ph down to 5.8. Plants bounced back very nicely from deeper transplant. Running humidifier on lowest setting while lights are on to keep it around 70% rh Update 4/1 Upped nutes from 400 to 650ppm. Trying to ramp up to full strength by second week of veg. PH had crept up to like 6.5, brought it down to 5.8. Humidifier is only on during the day. At night it causes humidity to skyrocket and droplets to form on leaves even on lowest setting. May need to get it on a timer or just get a better humidifier. This 2.2L sucks

Hello growers, I harvested because she had completely consumed everything in her pot, so there was nothing left to wait for. The aroma is sweet and spicy, hard to describe but very pleasant. The bud is dense and beautifully colored. Peace and happy growing! ✌️

wow wow !!!! 404 gr ! from the suitcase!!!!!!!258 gr of wet dried buds!!!!!!! I am impressed with the result, and I don't really believe that I will ever be able to improve it :) It was a truly amazing journey with FastBuds Gorilla cookies auto, my house is filled with a wonderful sweet smell, the buds look really full and very very shiny :) I also collected a lot of sugar leaves from which I will make bubble hash:) the girl coped with high temperatures and high humidity throughout her growth, which is why I was afraid of rot, but everything went well!!!! She is amazing. smoke review and dry weight will be up very soon, good luck to everyone :)!!!

Rolling into week 3 from seed roots are starting to drop through the net cups and down into the solution. Growth appears to be a lime green color, which would indicate that they are in need of more Nitrogen (N). One is struggling to keep up with the others and is looking a bit mutated and is not responding well to the nutrients I am using. I am going to add some 5.8 pH water to her rez and see if the dilution helps. Over all happy with the progress so far, Will post again next week with new progress.

4/13 10TH planet is doing phenomenal under those aerogarden lights. I'll wait a little bit then I'll bring them over with the others. I'm comparing the growth to the growth of the mk ultra and the chem dog as they are of a more similar age. I watered the 2 mk ultra and the chem dog #4. The others looked alright so I'll check later on. The three in the middle will probably be culled. The may recover but if they don't it doesn't really matter. I'll have what I need. I'm super excited for this season. I shouldve done more 10th planet. The "kush" seedlings are starting to take off. The leaves are finally starting to get bigger and they are developing new growth. WENT BACK OVER AT 1:30. PLANTS WILL NEED TO BE WATERED IN THE MORNING. ONE PLANT WAS DOWN TO 199 GRAMS BUT IT HAS A LITTLE LESS SOIL IN THE CUP. THEY ARE GROWING AT A MORE RAPID PACE AND I DONT WANT TO INTERRUPT THAT. OTHER CUPS WERE LOW BUT NOT READY TO BE WATERED. I THINK EITHER WAY IT WOULD BE FINE BUT IM ERRING ON THE EDGE OF CAUTION. I MAYBE SHOULDVE WATERED THE DRY ONE BUT HINDSIGHT IS 20/20 AND I KIND OF WANT THEM TO BE ON A SIMILAR SCHEDULE. I GRABVED A TACK AND CHECKED THE DRAIMAGE IN THE BOTTOM. I ADDED A FEW MORE HOLES OB THE BOTTOM SIDE. I MAY JUST HAVE TO JUNK THAT MIDDLE ROW OF 3 I STRESSED BY DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE LIGHT MANUAL SAID TO DO. OH WELL I PLANNED FOR THAT WITH THE 2 MK ULTRAS AND THE CHEM DOG #4. ALL ARE DOING GREAT. SOME OF THE SOECIAL AND PINK KUSH ARE GETTING THEIR TERTIARY SET OF LEAVES SO THEY ARE PULLING OUT AND GOING TO TOWN. THE ITHER ONES (MK ULTRA, CHEM DOG, 10TH PLANET) THAT DIDNT GET STRESSED SEEM TO BE GROWING AT A FASTER RATE. I THINK I MIGHT TRY AN AUTO THIS YEAR. I HAVE A FEW BEANS. ILL THINK ABOUT IT BUT IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE FRESH WEED HALF-WAY THROUGH THE SUMMER. 4/14 WATERED ALL THE KUSH WITH A SHOT GLASS. THEY WERE VERY DRY. ONE WAS IN THE 180'S. I FOUND THAT ONE OF THE PLANTS THAT WAS STINTED HAS FALLEN OVER AND WAS LIMP AGAINST THE CUP. I IMMEDIATELY REMOVED TGE TWO SEEDLINGS THAT WERE BY FAR THE WORST AND I ASSUMED I WAS LOSING. I TOOK THE PEAT PELLET OUT AND THE TAPROOT HAD BARELY PENETRATED ONE AND HADN'T PENETRATED IT AT ALL ON THE OTHER ONE. IM NOT USING THOSE PEAT PELLETS AGAIN. ITS WIERD. I'VE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. PLANTS SEEM TO BE DOING GOOD. IM CONSIDERING STARTING ANOTHER SEED OR TWO. MAYBE AN AUTO. Edit. I added mykos amd happy happy frog to the 10th planet in the solo cups. They are already to the top. I watered them with a shot glass of water amd some mykos. 4/15 I added soil to the top of the cup on kush plants and watered them with a shot glass. It seems like I may need to up the water as it's only lasting about a day. I'm seeing some slight stretching but I have no idea why. They are just seedlings and it's a 150watt hps light! Last year I used 2! I think they needed to stay under the cfl's a little longer and thatci nightve stressed them prematurelyremoving some helmet heads. Or maybe they are having problems breaking through the pear netting. I'll tell you one thing im NEVER using peat pellets again. I have other seeds and autos I could start if needed. I have what i need but if I lose a few more I'll be pissed. Maybe better to startca couole more. Those 10thvplanet are doing amazing and blowing past everything else. They look so healthy. I'm going to download a light meter on dad's iPhone and get some readings with all the different lights today. 4/16 I was able to download a FREE app for a light meter. Apple has one bit you have to pay for readings of any of the "good" lights. I had a very hurried morning and didn't take any pictures. That one special kush that was burned like the other two I threw away (or damaged when I removed the helmet head) is starting to look like it has some NEW growth. I've kept it but a little ways away from the others. I weighed all cups and they didn't seem to need water. I AGAIN packed dry soil into a cup to get a reading. Still 200. When they get within 10 grams of dry weight I'll water them. I measured and found I had the light further away than it should be. I lowered it to approx 3ft from the top of the canopy. I'll try to map the area and see what I'm getting for results. Then I'll plug in my L.E.D and see what I get. I only lowered the light because readings (that may be inaccurate) say it's not enough and two years ago when I used this light i used two. That is unnecessary I think for seedlings. I'm just trying to get them through seedling phase intact so I can move to veg and switch my light. Transplantvinto one gallons. This is where patience comes in. I'm sure everything will be fine. I just am a worrier. 4/17 I used that light meter to check the ppfd. It says it should be between 100-200 but it was only reading at like 65 and this was after I lowered the light. I'd need to go down a ways to get anywhere close. I tried to check my l.e.d and that was low so I can switch back fine. Especially with the light meter app. However the plants seem to be doing better and have tertiary leaves so I'm hesitant to change things when they seem like they are having a growth spurt. I may take the 2 mk ultras and put them with 10th planet since they are doing so good. Won't let me upload pictures. WATERED ALL THE KUSH WITH A SHOT GLASS. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AND USED THE PHONE APP METER ON THE LATEST IPHONE. I LOWERED THE LIGHT RO A LITTLE UNDER THREE FEET. THAT GAVE ME ABOUT 100-120 ON THE HOTTEST SPOT AND LESS FURTHER AWAY OBVIOUSLY. IM TAKING THIS WITH A GRAIN OF SALT. I MEASURED ME 100 WATT LED AND WITH BOTH SWITCHES ON I CAN REACH OVER 100 EASY FROM FAIRLY FAR AWAY. ILL BE MONITORING GROWTH AND DECIDING HOW TO MOVE FORWARD FROM THERE. I TOOK THE DOMES OFF THE 19TH PLANET BUT THE LEAF TIPS STARTED TO CURL. THE NEED TO BE HARDWNED OFF. THE CFL WAS TO CLOEE AND BRIGHT BUT MORE SO WAS THE RH OF THIS BUILDING WHICH IS PRACTICALLY NOTHING. ILL HAVE TO MOCE THEM WITH THE OTHERS. UNTIL THEN I POKED HOLES WITH A TAC ALL OVER THE DOME. THAT WAY IT CAN VENT A LITTLE BIT. I'LL SLOWLY ACCLIMATE UT TO THE LOW RH INDOORS BEFORE THE GO TO THE 100RH OUTDOORS LOL. 4/18 Didn't water this morning because things were over 20grams dry weight. Came back around one and weighed and most were within the 20 grams. One was under 200. I can see more growth since the light adjustment but I still see some stretching. But I've seen noticeable growth in a short period. I'm contemplating waiting to see what happens for a few days or to just switch to my l.e.d using my meter as a guide. Even though the box tells you how far to hang it. I'm bringing the aerogarden over to the grow tomorrow. I have a few more as well. I'm going to check that with the light meter and am considering putting the mk ultras and maybe the chem dog under that. I mean those are doing great. I poked more holes in the dome and have been exposing the plants to low rh and increased light. They don't have immediate effects anymore. I have the domes popped open too. They are gett9ng acclimated. Realistically I'm wondering if I should just pop more 10th planet or mk ultra or an auto but looking through my other diaries things will be fine. I worry to much and I usually grow clones. Outdoors. Plus most of my stuff was stolen so I'm making use of things the best I can. My money is going into good soil. I also checked the temperature at the hottest spot under the light and it was 80 degrees. This is telling my I can't really lower my light anymore. I've got some thinking to do. EDIT: 10th Planet has done well all day without a humidity dome in this extremely low rh. I'm going to bring them and the aerogarden to the grow tomorrow. I have my l.e.d setup to test. I plan to use the light meter to see what is closest to the correct ppfd. A lot of it will be gut feeling too. I'm interested to see the reading on the new aerogarden bulbs. Those seedlings are doing awesome. 4/19 Didn't water this morning I don't think. I was hurried. Got back and found one seedling that had been growing some bigger leaves just flat on the cup. Luckily I had noticed it drooping (should've watered) and picked up a straw on the way home. It weighed 180 grams. Everything was low and I MAY have watered yesterday bit I don't think so. With this hps so close its bringing the temp up to 80. I checked the cfl aerogarden lights. Wow are those bright! I had to raise them to get in range. I put the mk ultra and chemdog under the aerogardeb light. It's about 300 bit it has a couple hot spots that bring it up to like 4k-5k. The 10th planet's loved it though and did great. I held my hand over the plants and it seemed ok. Now for the hps light and the pink kush and special kush #1. I put my tatu 100 watt (1000 watt equivelant lol) 248ns above the seedlings I had just watered. Since that hps dried everything out so much I gave them 2 shot glasses. I'll keep monitoring things. I feel like this is the best bet for me. If I fuck something up I'll have to pop more 10th planet and mk ultra ect. But I've got to make sure things are in the right range. If it stretches a little I'll just have to repot it a little sooner than the others. When they outgrow the solos they go to 1 gallon. Tomorrow I'm picking up AT LEAST a bag of fox farm ocean forest so I'll be ready for transplant when necessary. I need to get all my pots together and bring the other hps to my cousin to fix. However when they get bigger I might just use the l.e.d AND the hps if I had too.

Here I am, back from Mary Jane Berlin, finding my plants in a completely different stage. Day 16 of 12/12 and now I'm ending with 4 female plants from initial 9 plants. In this week plants are finnishing the early flower stage, and next week they enter the late flowering phase, which lasts 3 weeks, before ending up in maturation phase for the last third of the flowering. I do expect this cultivar to finnish in between weeks 9 & 10. Enough balls already, right? 🤞😅

Day 50 things are chugging along nicely, buds and tricomes are stacking up, run off is continuing to come out 6.3-6.5, dropped 1 gram of nutrient powder but tips are still bunning will drop 1 more gram, box recommends 5 gram per 5 liter I'm mixing at 5 gram per 9 liters so will drop to 4 gram, kush n cheese are further along so guessing they will finish first

Day 22 22/07/24 Monday Nothing new to report. Starting to see them beautiful fans appear that's all 😁✌️ Day 23 23/07/24 Tuesday Feed today, giving them straight all nutes Inc flowering nutes. I will update the dose as they grow and develop a bigger hunger. (Not sure what's wrong with Overdose #2, bit mutated, we'll see how she gets on 😅) Video updates 👌💚 Day 26 26/07/24 Friday De-chlorinated watering pH 6 with 5ml calmag to 5L water. Watered each with 250ml and had small run off. I will continue to feed/water with small run offs to help prevent salt build ups. Video update.

Questa settimana come è andata? Hehehehe è andata a meraviglia!!! LEI E SEMPLICEMENTE PERFETTA!!! cresce sempre di più le cime si ammassano e diventano sempre più dure! I colori sono stupendi e il profumo di limone mi ha invaso la villa!!! La struttura della pianta e veramente robusta ovviamente dopo un lst molto scrupoloso! Veramente una grande bella signora! Rimango sempre meravigliato con i semi di fast buds, veramente secondo me e la più valida di tutti! Ho visto i tricomi con il mio lumagny 100x e sono ancora bianco/trasparenti e si ammassano sempre di più! Deduco altre 2-3 settimane penso di fare un ultima settimana di nutrimenti e poi via con il flush! Laverò le radici per almeno 10 giorni, voglio un fumo morbido e deciso! Ringrazio voi per essere qui a vedere i miei lavori e ringrazio i ragazzi di FAST BUDS per avermi dato l'opportunità di coltivare le loro genetiche!!! Un bacio a tutti voi! 💪🏼🌈🌱

Alles wächst! Ich flechte die Triebe fleißig ein, so dass alle etwa auf der gleichen Höhe sind und der Abstand zur Lampe maximal bleibt. Blätter die Triebe beschatten kommen weg. Am 08.04 wurde gedüngt. Hab auch Top Max hinzugefügt, da ich noch eine Flasche davon rumstehen hab. Ob das notwendig ist? I don‘t know! 10.04: Alle Triebe die es nicht geschafft haben zum Scrog Gitter zu kommen wurden entfernt. Blätter die Triebe bedeckt haben kamen auch weg! 12.04: jetzt 2 Wochen Urlaub… Kumpel kümmert sich. Lets see!
