Since this diary started in the middle of Week 4 of flower, many of the details about how we got to that point have remained a mystery. In previous updates I mentioned how my last attempt at growing this cut resulted in a plant that outgrew my space. I had a long veg time and used a 5 gallon pot. That information allowed me to exercise caution on this grow because I knew how big this plant can get when given an opportunity. With that in mind, I only gave her 9 days after transplant from the aerocloner before moving her to the flower tent. My pervious experience dictated that this plant exhibits significant lateral branching. I top most of my plants to encourage this kind of growth, but due to the short veg time and for the sake of experimentation, I decided to not top her this time. You can see that this has resulted in a large main stem cola, but also (thanks to knowing her growth pattern) several rather large secondary colas as well. As an aside, some may look at this and wonder "yeah, but what about the yield?" I have never weighed a harvest. I grow for myself only, therefore yield is not something I concern myself with. I just don't care. I fill one quart mason jar and the rest is given away or turned into hash. My scheduling is such that I harvest approximately one plant a month; therefore I have enough smoke to last a VERY long time. While this plant will probably go 12+ weeks, with only 9 days of veg, it’s still comparable to a 10 week variety that would require a longer veg time to produce a similar yield. And, frankly, I have close to a dozen cultivars in my ‘consumable’ collection and this is the only one I reach for prior to 9 pm. She has a very clear and motivational high. Not overpowering, but I never test her ceiling, so she could get one blasted if necessary. This would also be a great plant for someone having trouble eating, because my appetite is essentially limitless when I’m smoking this. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that I have put on a few lbs since I’ve had her in my collection?

10/19 - 1 week since transplant so for no issues - removed some of the dead growth underneath - running humidifier at 80% with temps at 85 degrees.

Last week of nutrients finished, plant will now be flushed for 2 weeks. Just had a harvest from another seed of this plant and we've decided to call the strain "Monkey Magic", as a few puffs will summon a cloud which whisks you away into the sky! 😀

Well, I can only apologise to 42fastbuds I top watered and left a small pool in the crown of the plant by mistake and now she's taken some damages. Learn from my mistakes people, don't leave feed solution on your plants:( This is my fault and not a genetic issues. User error 😆 Despite my mistake she has still doubled in a week and now she shows signs of recovery so all is not lost yet.

Ok

Been a tuff week as my ph pen failed so had signs of defiantly But that’s now corrected so hope it didn’t set them all back too much

shogun had a good veg and rocky flower due to timer issues with the light heat and missing a feed all that being said she finished well she took the timer issue the best of the bunch but guys dont miss a feed with this one she dosnt take it well doubled with the heat but my issues aside she grows well and can be topped fimd and trained well dosnt stretch too much and yields well cant really recommend her enough already looking forward to the clone of her as she will be finished better thanks for reading happy growing guys

My Skunk Apple Run plant is still a bit young, but I can see those buds starting to form. It's a bit of a slow starter, with buds popping up all over the place instead of a nice even line. We'll see if adjusting the light cycle or its food might help it along. I'll keep you posted on any changes. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

🌿Week 4: Defoliation & SCROG Setup Week 4 was all about structure and airflow. The canopy was getting bushy fast, with a ton of inner growth, so we went in for a solid defoliation session across the board. Lower fans, overlapping leaves, and shaded internodes were cleaned up to let light penetrate deeper into the canopy and reduce potential humidity traps. Right after that, we finally dropped the SCROG net, stretched out gently across the canopy to guide the branches horizontally and prep for flower stacking. Some of these phenos are already reaching for the sky, so the timing felt just right. Captured a full-time-lapse clip of the defoliation + netting process. It’s super satisfying watching the chaos turn into clean lines. Nature meets intention. Feed Bloom since 20/6 22/6 Defoliation 🌱 Plant Response: After defol, they bounced back fast. Tops are perky, leaves are praying, and stretch is continuing in a controlled way. The structure’s more open now — better airflow, better light distribution, better everything.

Seeds sprouted June 21st, outdoors in Southern California. I'm using Fox Farms Ocean Forest potting soil and city tap water. Can't wait to start this grow!

Ho portato le mie piccole amiche che mi ripuliranno la mia terapia .forza belle coccinelle 🐞 mie mangiate tutti. Ragni e uova... gnam gnam gnam 😋🤤

the weather is perfect and the outdoor plant looks healthy and grows like a champ. the indoor one finally got transplanted into 25L FibrePots.

Pretty easy going week. I appear to be understanding the plants needs a little bit more and they are reacting well to it. I was away for the last few days of this week and was happy to return to slightly larger buds. Both girls are smelling beautiful! The bud sites are looking good. The AK is slightly ahead and at a guess think she has another 2 or 3 weeks till harvest. I feel like the West Coast will be slightly longer. Am giving the AK a half feed instead of watering as she seems a big hungry. Hoping the buds swell up some more before they are ready to harvest!

Day 71 She is finishing up nicely. I suspect there are one or two more days left and I will cut her down. Pistils are 50% colored, and the trichome heads are all full and white. Lights on 24 hours, cold temps for 48 hours now, the resin production is unreal, and the smell is the strongest ive ever smelled from an autoflower indoors. Professor Bruce Bugbee from the University of Utah, space farming with NASA, shared very interesting research knowledge during a discussion I attended in the USA. I have been using the new techniques I learned to grow even better Cannabis than I did before. I already grew top shelf killer buds, but with Professor Bugbee's techniques and advice if followed correctly will yield the best quality cannabis possible. Day 72 Tomorrow will be her last day, she will be chopped after 96 hours of solid light, and sub 20 degrees temperatures. This is the strongest, most sticky, rock hard bud auto plant ive ever grown. Uploaded some photos when I stopped the light for 3 minutes to capture photos, the buds are incredible! Thanks @Fast_Buds Day 73 Chopped her down, and is dying at 50% humidity and 20 degrees.

Currently sitting at day 38 of flower. Forbidden Soda- Looks incredible, buds are a pinkish purple. Smell is a fruity tangerine Forbidden Dream pheno #1 - this pheno is the beat smelling and looking, started turning purple from the onset of flower, the smell is like grape soda mixed with sour patch kids. Forbidden Dream kush pheno: this was the pheno that I though hermied, it’s not possible that they were just calyxs building on the top buds. They never got bigger, didn’t release pollen, and some now have pistils thru them, but will see once harvest time. Very impressed with the forbidden Dream strain, as for the forbidden soda while it does look incredible , this was selected from 3 different 12/12 seeds where the other two were not good. The forbidden dream seems to have better phenotypes overall and buds are a lot denser..

Slow and steady wins the race Juan has slowed right down Finally the leaves are starting to turn, this is the latest in flower the leaves have lasted me. Shame she isn’t fattening up

Sorry had my ratios off last week on my nutes. Anyway she's turning into a bush I found some balls on the lower half been plucking them off. So I guess technically it's a Hermie not a her. Top half looks amazing. Since it's only one plant I'm going to grow it out I've got nothing to lose. Had to do some lst because it grew up into the light. EC is at 2
