BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows. The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level. My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!! I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for. I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless. I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest. My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake. I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably. I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks. Thanks to everyone & all your comments. Wishing you all the best. One Love ❤️

Not sure what's up with the 2 plants I decided to do this journal with. As my luck would go they are 2 of 3 critical purples that absolutely refuse to flower..Here is a side by side picture of what i mean. I have 5 of this strain and x3 are acting like any other photo I've grown. I took the liberty of super-cropping the 3 I mentioned, however my Gorilla Glue/GWS and x2 of the CP all seem on track and starting to stack up :) *DAY 64 - Deer or rabbits.... after my initial panic I discovered that they weren't hurt too badly

Heeey all! Sorry for the huge amount of photos but this week was crazy. So many things happened and my lack of knowledge clearly showed up. I ended stressing one of my plants for no reason! 😱 At the start of the week everything was normal until I noticed that one of Roko's buds looked weird. It seemed to be too dry and orange for my tastes and I didn't know what it was. Obviously I started to ask around and I got so many mixed messages haha. Some people said it was nothing and I should not worry about it and others said they were 100% sure it was botrytis or budrot... aaaaaaaand I got paranoid lol. 😵😨 At first I tried to keep calm and ignore it for one day but the next one the bud looked even worse and that's when I feared the worst. What if it's really budrot? In general the values I write in here are approximates or an average of the week.. and usually my tent never goes over 60% of RH (in the dark it stays between 50% to 60% when I water them and on some rare occasions it reaches 65%). This time, after I checked the thermometer it said "75% of RH" but I did not know if it was during their sleep time or maybe some time after the lights went on) so once again I feared the worst! What if the plants stayed all the night with that amount of RH? Was that enough time for them to develop budrot? What if it's still nothing? Yikes. 😭 I had to do something and I did, I wasn't going to risk everything! I started removing the worst looking leaf to see if there was anything mushy or ugly between it and the pistils but I didn't see anything (maybe I was safe and that was something else? Or maybe the budrot was even deeper and I could not see it?) After reading I realized that the best idea was to cut the bud in half and then slice it to "see" if there was anything inside... so I did it and absolutely nothing showed up 😖! Those were good news! Sadly tho the poor plant had to go thru some stress after cutting that bud in half (at least from what I saw the insides were tightly packed and the photos showed some really cool stuff) The rest of the week was uneventful (compared to what I feared haha) and some leaves started to change even more in color (I love it). I think I'll start with the flush next week or the one after that one. There are some amber trichomes...! Thanks all for checking my diary! Hopefully you'll all find the pictures interesting! PD: None of the plants have seeds in them, even when one of the sliced buds seemed to be making them!

Week 7 (Feb 15 - Feb 21). All three plants are doing nicely, and River, our youngest plant, is doing a good job keeping up, but still a couple inches shorter. So, I decided to FIM the older two plants to see if it evens them out, or sends them into a growth spurt. If the later, then I'll give River a FIM next week.

This plant was an absolute joy to grow. She was photogenic and really something that has stood out to most grows as far as looks go. The purples and hints of red caught everyone's eye. The vigor during veg was something I've never experienced; it was amazing. It seemed to enjoy being topped! I really wish flower had produced bigger buds, but they seem pretty dense, so I’m hopeful. Great job as usual Ethos!

Try to don't stress, after topping, before cut a big leaves. It's my sixth one, and it's worked for every other. This light is just Super for a one or two plants.

Bonjour a tous et toutes j ai enfin trouver le temp et la force de sortir les petites de la tante ;) et j ai malheureusement vue que 2 tête de ma melon gum commencer à avoir un peut de bud rot (je n ai pourtant jamais dépasser les 50% d humidité mais j doit dire que les têtes on triplé de volume en 1 semaine et pour la circulation de l air pas top ) j ai donc coupé tous cela et désinfecté aussi bien que je le pouvais, par la suite j ai augmenté l apport en air frais (rajout d 1 gros ventilateur) Autrement tous ce passe pour le mieux fin de semaine on passe au flusch 😉 voilà voilà (Ps= 2 plantes n ont pas été sortie je ne veut pas risquer quel casse vue la hauteur et le poids en bud mais promis vous les verrais bientôt

Add slightly nutrients. Day Nr 16 doing topping. Nutrient tank with capacity 10L turning little bit in alkaline, at the beginning I added 3ml ph down and reach 6.4 pH, than now it’s inccrise to 6.6 on 5 days time. Same I can telling about TDS. At the beginning it was 350 ppm, but now it’s step up on 400ppm without adding nothing. Day 18 start moving out new branches from places around where was topping. Keep watering with 1.5L with slight nutrients dosage… Day 20 we can see how flower keep moving ahead after topping days ago…

Week 3. Botanicare is working wonders. I went ahead and topped at the third node. And started giving plants full grow nutes. The Banana Biscotti looks so good I might clone it. The Ice Dream Cake hasn’t bounced all the way back yet.

OSS Cheese XXL ╰⊰🔹Started 03.10.24🔹╰⊰ 🌾 - Popped The Seeds On 03.10.24 🌞 - Environment - 80F / 65% RH 🌾 - Training - Defoliating the buds as needed, a little at a time; they should be pretty clean by the time harvest comes. ⚱️ - 2-Gallon 📊6.2 PH 💧 - Feeding - Using Horti Late Bloom 0-24-26, Cal 12-0-0 🌞 - Mars Hydro FC-4800 🕷️ - IPM - CannControl from Mammoth and Mosquito Bits ╰⊰🔹WEEKLY REPORT🔹╰⊰ 📝 Notes - This ends the two weeks of using the High Fortified P&K of the Horti-Late Bloom 0-24-26; you will be watering with H20 PHed to 6.2; when growing this strain, you are going to want to pull the branches down so buds at the nodes have plenty of airflow, stay on top of the defoliation, as this cultivar appears to be a leafy one, with that said these girls are worth growing the terpenes are strong with a foul citrus, definitely a likable skunk smell! 🗓️06.08.24 Feeding 2x Dail with Horti Cal and Horti Late Bloom 🗓️06.09.24 Feeding 2x Dail with Horti Cal and Horti Late Bloom 🗓️06.10.24 Feeding 2x Dail with Horti Cal and Horti Late Bloom 🗓️06.11.24 Feeding 2x Dail with Horti Cal and Horti Late Bloom 🗓️06.12.24 Feeding 2x Dail with Horti Cal and Horti Late Bloom 🗓️06.13.24 Feeding 2x Dail with Horti Cal and Horti Late Bloom 🗓️06.14.24 Feeding 2x Dail with Horti Cal and Horti Late Bloom 📝Fertigation injects fertilizers into an irrigation system to supply dissolved nutrients and water to crops. ╰⊰🔹STRAIN INFO🔹⊱╮ Cheese XXL cannabis seeds are a unique blend of Afghan Kush x Super Skunk, producing the most pungent dank weed. Cheese XXL is the third commercially available edition released by Original Sensible using and developing these Afghan and Skunk genetics. The first release of these genetics was their Skunk Afghani. The second improved version was Stinkin' Bishop, which had an enhanced and more potent THC content and was more intense in terms of smell. The third and improved release on a similar theme is this Cheese XXL, which has a similar THC content but an enhanced heavier yield. The smoke is incredible, with an outstanding flavor of pungent skunk and spicy, extra strong mature cheese created by the dominant terpene myrcene with its earthy solid scent accompanied by caryophyllene and pinene, which combine to create a peppery acrid cheesy odor. THC levels are exceptionally high in this Cheese strain, and the effect is well-balanced, developing mental and body relaxation with a remarkable alleviation of stress and depression. The intense solid aroma starts early in the flowering period; if you're growing Cheese XXL indoors, you'll need plenty of ventilation to disperse these babies' stinky "road kill" aroma! Cheese XXL is a cheese strain suited to indoor setups and thrives outdoors well. These feminized marijuana seeds are incredibly resistant to mold and disease and produce a substantial harvest that professional and amateur growers can quickly achieve. These Cheese weed seeds are outstanding. Break open the buds ready for use, and you'll see why the stench will make your eyes water! Cheese XXL from Original Sensible Seeds is a great choice to break into the commercial market of growing cannabis, so if you're looking to buy something special with extreme yield, potency, and flavor, Cheese XXL cannabis seeds are simply the best choice.

Today 24.9 1st day of flowering Last week was steady growth and I added some bacteria and microbes in a form of Voodoo Juice and some silica also. It's nice to see how fast it affects on your stems and they start thickening right away 👌 I have some heavy duty defoliating to do gonna do it in this and next week. I'll add some more pics at the end of the week. So let'see how these flower, can't wait 😋 Happy growing!

Hi Growmies, Luckily she has made full recovery, in the tank below and up top :). OST of the root growth I. Observing, I would attribute to the combination of orca, rhizotonic and cannazym. Mainly the orca though ;). I will minimum give her 1–2 more weeks max until I flip her, as it feels like she should have a fairly short flowering phase. Overall she is looking very lush and healthy again, but still has some catching up to do. Here is the code that’ll give you 20% in Zamnesia‘s online store, just input ZAMMIGD2023 at checkout. Thanks for stepping by and until next week!

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾 Novena semana de floración para esta planta cultivada en una tierra que no es mía ni tuya, es tierra de nadie, y a nadie le debe nada. Jelly Bananen está dispuesta a darlo todo, tuvo 3 semanas de bloqueo cuando la pasé a floración, ahora ella se resarce y recupera el tiempo perdido, agranda sus bellas colas día a día, se resiste a envejecer, porque aun tiene cosas por hacer y mostrar. Aromas embriagantes lo inundan todo... gran cepa! Hasta la próxima... SALUDOS A TODOS!! ================================= Info de la cepa Jelly Bananen: https://en.seedfinder.eu/strain-info/Jelly_Bananen/Exotic_Seed/ - Genética: Strawberry Banana x Hippie OG (Selección OG Kush) - Madura tras unas 9 semanas de floración. - Floración Interior: 60-65 días. - Su efecto es muy fuerte, completamente indico. ==============

Welcome to week 2! .... We've had some issue with light stress and toppling. Hopefully corrected the problem with a taller bucket! Still watering every other day with 1-1/4 Oz.
