Week 4 Looking healthy, transplanted to 5gal pot, added recharge to the soil and root ball. Considering that transplanting stresses her out, I’ll defoliate and spread her out week 5. Happy growing!

2/10: I watered today with about 3/4 gallon each, plus cal-mag, signal, bembe, armor si, a little open sesame, and their final dose of endoboost. The short one never did stop making the hook leaves on all her new growth, but she seems happy..budding faster than anybody else.. 2/11: Wife home sick today....postponing construction project to raise the lights. 2/12: Today, I tackled the project to raise my ceiling another foot. In addition to that project, I installed and hooked up my new AC Infinity 6" intake fan. It's pulling in fresh air from the soffit vent on the eave of the attic, and currently feeding the garden with 46f fresh air. I'm able to easily maintain daytime temps in the lower 70f's now. I am able to drive the nighttime temps as low as I want. The only issue is that the outdoor RH varies quite a bit, so I ordered a 30-pint dehumidifier to put in the top of the closet. I sprayed everybody with boomboom spray to try and mitigate the light burn damage that is likely to ensue. 2/13: The taller one is still stretching a little bit, but the 2-footer is just budding up. 2/14: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, cal-mag, signal, bembe, humic acid, and I switched over from Open Sesame to Beastie Bloomz. Raised the lights another couple of inches. I did some training on them and defo'd a little bit. 2/15: Installed the new dehumidifier and rigged the continuous drain on it...works great. 2/16: I rotated the edge plants and removed some old leaves. I added another 22w 3000k 4' bar light under the canopy. 2/17: I rearranged the garden and defoliated a little bit. That's it for week 8-

06/01/2020 Time to make the seeds! First my Cookie Cake F1 plant is a 7 star cookies male (Top dawg seeds) X a female Captains cake clone (Captains connection) and will be growing TLO Style. 7 Stars Cookies Strain | Marijuana Strain Reviews 50% Sativa /50% Indica THC: 22% - 27% 7 Stars Cookies is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through a potent cross of the classic F1 Durban X Girl Scout Cookies strains. This potent bud is infamous among cannabis users for its super high potency and long lasting effects that are perfect for any hybrid lover. The 7 Stars Cookies high starts with a rush of cerebral effects that rush though your mind, lifting your spirits and leaving you blissfully happy and unfocused. As your mind flies higher and higher, your body will begin to slip away into a state of deep relaxation that leaves you totally stoned and out of it. A sharp pang of hunger comes next, leaving you with a ravenous case of the munchies as your mind slips in and out of calming sedation. Thanks to these effects and its super high 22-28% THC level, 7 Star Cookies is often chosen to treat those suffering from conditions such as chronic pain, insomnia, stress, depression, and migraines or headaches. This bud has a sweet citrusy flavor with hints of spicy earthy grape upon exhale. The aroma follows the same profile although with a light pungency to it. 7 Star Cookies buds have fluffy dense popcorn-shaped olive green nugs with bright orange hairs and golden crystal trichomes. Captain's Cake Marijuana Strain Information About Captain's Cake Hailing from the beautiful land of Maine, Captain’s Cake is brought to us by The Captain’s Connection. This indica-dominant strain boasts two pretty incredible parents, Girl Scout Cookies and White Fire Alien OG, making her a bud that offers great effects for both recreational and medical patients. While Captain’s Cake typically acts as a true hybrid, user sensitivity may dictate that your experience comes with the roll of the dice. A fairly potent strain in her own right, Captain’s Cake averages around 21% THC. Rumor has it that CBD levels can vary dramatically, with some reports showing a range between 1% and 15%. While that data remains to be confirmed, you can instead relish in beautiful buds that are bright green, featuring orange pistils and lovely amber trichomes. Oddly enough, flavors and scents do vary a bit with this strain, and you’ll notice it smells much worse than it tastes. A sour and earthy fragrance that includes lemon, nuts, and berries will hit you right away while your mouth enjoys a nutty vanilla cookie experience that’s slightly citrus-like. Captain’s Cake is awesome for those times when you need a boost of energy to get through a particularly trying task. Whether you’re experiencing the three o’clock workday slump or you simply have to clean the house before it gets any worse, this strain is here to help. Users note a euphoric boost that helps you to focus on your tasks while having a huge smile on your face, but keep in mind that this joyful experience can only last so long. Soon the munchies will hit, and after you’ve had your fill of snacks, you’ll be ready to settle in during a sedating comedown. Even if Captain’s Cake doesn’t have an astounding amount of CBD, medical patients still note that she’s a strain that is practically magical. Users find that mental woes are easily dissolved after taking a few hits, making stress and depression a thing of the past. Bodily aches and pains are also treated with a slight feeling of physical sedation, and those who struggle with their appetite will likely turn to this bud time and time again. This plant is an ideal choice for new and experienced growers, and the ability to cultivate inside or out makes her pretty versatile. Said to be a quick flowering strain, you’ll be gifted with a nicely sized yield after 8 to 9 weeks. Plants tend to grow fairly large, so make sure you have enough space dedicated to your crop before you begin. Depending on how you handle marijuana, Captain’s Cake may knock you out for an amazing nap or in some cases may fire you up with tons of energy. Others will experience a nice set of hybrid effects, so it’s best to know yourself before lighting this one up. Red Sky is Description The (paternal P1) father is the legendary Cherry Hemmingway male. A hybrid of a landrace Bhutan, and Rez Dog’s Firecracker (Williams Wonder x NYC Diesel). The female KOS’s own Skyanchor (Bogglegum x PSI) a cross using a prime selected male of BOG’s Bogglegum. A bad ass old-school hybrid made using a Northern Lights #5 (real deal) crossed to a Bubblegum (real deal). The female used to make the Skyanchor was my clone only PSI (Purple Salem Indica) that I was given by my good friend Keith, in Salem, OR, USA. Some kind of crazy old Purple Kush variant; potency is not only severe with this baby, but supernaturally intense. The Cherry Hemmy is well known by me to relate large yields and incredible vigor along with increased resin production, and also usually relates cream soda, vanilla, or cherry-ish terpenes, making exotic and addictive combinations when used as part of any hybrid. So, the Red Sky yields well—very well. Some truly legendary strains involved in this Small Batch Seed run. Great genetics equals great end results. I put video of Red Sky #3's brothers #2, and #4.

Changed to 12-12 a week ago and she’s into the stretch fully , I’ll need to defol and remove some lower branches and tie it down some more next week . Very stable genetics handling hot temps in her stride . You can already taste the orange when chewing on the leaves , can’t wait for this one to be getting smoked

6/22 Some pictures didn't upload but that's probably a good thing. As long as the video went up its good. I need to take less pictures. I'm glad I watered the plants in the back with a premixed gallon last night as we didnt get nearly the rain I thought we would. It's small showers throughout the day. The plants are getting enormous. A couple have revegged. Mostly the 10th planet. The others aren't anywhere near as impacted. Boy are some of these stalks thick. I chose to keep a couple plants that could be grown naturally without topping or fimming. I like to see the structure of the tree bit with humidity like this 98%rh it's easy to get botrytis. That's why it's good sometimes to have multiple bid sites so your proverbial eggs aren't all in one basket. But you do end up with a massive cola. I think that mk ultra with the big fan leavescis just going to be one giant bud. That's what it's looking like. Oh and today is the summer solstice. Longest day of the year. 6/23 WATERED EVERYTHING. USED FIVE AND A HALF GALLONS. EVERYTHING GOT AT LEAST A HALF GALLON. Despite the rain we got and the bags still having some heft I decided to water. It's 80 at 9am. It's supposed to he in the upper 90's today and coukd break 100° tomorrow. I hate that the grow bags are black. That's way to hot for the plants. I should find some empty soil bags and wrap the black fabric for a couple days. A sunscreen might help but I doubt much. We'll see how it goes.

GENERAL COMMENT. This week ran nicely for the two girls, of course one is going slower than the other. RQS STRESS KILLER AUTO. Super happy with the results so far, she grew nice size buds, in the surrounding and a big fat main cola, just beautiful. As we are entering the last week, of last tree days, I choose to lollipop and take do a pre harvest defoliation, the reasons for that is mould and rot, I started to become insecure because she didn’t have airflow and as i was flushing humidity started to raise, all good, and now just approaching harvest! Flushing with flawless finish and tap water.

Definitely the best smelling stuff I've grown to date. The sweet fruity notes absolutely light up the tent every time I open it. And she's been a great candidate to learn my new phone's camera with. 8 week strain, so less than a month away! Definitely coming down before the others, that's for sure!

Strap yourselves in this is gonna be quite the revelation update. Day 33 - Northern Lights This girl is fast becoming the pride and joy of the tent showing no signs of flowering yet still well and truly in Veg mode without the female indicators about to end week 5 so she will be getting another round of LST this weekend to maximise freeing up access to light for the parts that otherwise without a Defol wouldn't get chance to blossom. She wants the full tent to herself at this point and the next update is going to help her with that. 20210219_103956.jpg I mean just look at her. She's a monster! Now onto some slightly less satisfying news and an admission of another noob fail. Day 28 - Chemdawg #1 This girl is abnormal. She has already made it perfectly clear she's not far off going into flower so whilst I did tie this girl down for some LST upon inspection from @autobeast he recommended we leave this stocky girl to try and get a bit of height without LST. Now for the admission.... When this girl was topped I cleaned out the top 2 Colas in the process so the top node was literally just two big fuck off Fan Leaves sucking all the good stuff away from the rest so off they came last night leaving this girl with only 6 branches to grow from instead of what should have been 8 had I topped her properly. In a way I'm glad this has happened and I spotted it myself and managed to understand why she wasn't flourishing as much as her cousin. Granted they are different Genetics but you only need to look at the next girls update to see that something just doesn't seem right with this one. 20210217_222845.jpg Here's what she could've won but instead we are going to be leaving her to her own devices. I am a little gutted about this as I've only been able to observe the Defol and training on one plant before I'm let loose with my own little lady that you're about to see next. Here's how Chemdawg #1 is looking today. 20210219_104008.jpg Don't get me wrong she is very healthy and happy and already kicking out that dank stardawg aroma and she may surprise with some fat nugs but I expect her to be having a shorter life span than the Northern Lights and with this in mind I'm going to apply that insight to the 3rd girl. Day 19 - Chemdawg #2 With the mistake in mind from the previous Topping I double checked with AutoBeast on where to top this and I'm kinda happy that he just stayed silent and said top it where you want its your baby. So being careful not to cut the top cola off too I chopped her head off and cheered her up with 1L of Water with 2ml BioBizz Fish. I've also been adding a foliar spray to her of the biobizz FishMix. Once the leaves reach the edge of the pot I'll be starting with 4ml of Parts A and B of Monkey Nutrients Grow Feed and 1 tablespoon of Blackstrap Molasses every 3 days. This is my favourite 6 days of growth I've witnessed so far as the plant tries to decipher which of its Colas is dominant. 20210219_104018.jpg Summary Don't top your main cola off when you realise what you've done it'll hurt like hell. Approaching 2nd week of feed keep a closer eye on the water levels in your plant they get thirsty sometimes but other days not so much so there is no one size fits all in those weeks 4-5 in my experience so far in Organic. Not all plants have the same life span so if growing a variety in one place understand that they will all veg and flower at different ages so while it's nice to have rules of thumb ie no earlier than x to top or no later than day x to start feed there will always be flex between days and that applies even to the same genetics although perhaps not so prominently variant. Every day growing is a day learning. Ok so it's end of week 5 for this @fastbuds_genetics @fastbuds_backup_account @420fastbuds Northern Lights Auto and well just fucking look at her. She's taking over the tent with her canopy dwarfing the 2 Chemdawg Autos and only just showing signs of Preflower. A vast contrast from the 2 Chemdawg but the aerial view gives an idea of the incredible amount of Bud Sites formulating on the upper canopy. I've been leaf tucking twice a day this week for around 15 minutes each time talking to my girls about what I'm doing to free up light to the lower canopy and its bearing fruit for sure. I knew this week was going to be an eventful one for this staggered tent but having thought the Chemdawg had fallen behind she is in fact further ahead in her life so adjusting the feed schedule for the baby accordingly. Every day growing is a day learning.

Day 57. And Mimosas are real sl@ts ..... No doubts, they all time were most picky and stupid, but big, very big ... Only two from 3. Last one is the smallest plant from all first wave. Very strange . Smoothie's are nice, grow without big hiccups, maybe a bit of a runners, but all 3 looks very similar. Purple Punch - both small, the one in best light is giving me hope that I will chop her before holidays and will make some space for the guy who will be watering them during my offs. They are overfed a bit. So no feed all week. Just water. Two biggest Mimosa's will be transplanted into bigger pots, they drink a lot, dry too quick and are sad in my mind, so I will cheer them up with bigger pots this week. Still selective defoliation, some yo-yo, so ties and no spray anymore. Smell is getting stronger, but didn't bother to try one or other. Still nothing special or super smelly yet ... In the middle of the day Mimosa's finally happy, but before lights down - theirs leaves are down too. Overdrying them constantly too, can't wait to give them better house, that type of fight I hate. Day 60. All work done ! Huge work ! All girls were cleaned, defoliated and pots toped up with BioBizz Worm Castings. Both Mimosas got new bigger pots too. Happy Growing !!!

First week of my first grow! The weeks leading to this were filled with hours of research from every source I could find. I still wake up and start reading or looking at diaries. I’m growing in a 4x4 tent in an insulated but not heated garage. I have a small heater in the tent connected to an Inkbird temp controller set to kick on at 70 degrees and turn off at 80. This sucks a lot of humidity from the tent. I have 2 humidifiers running to combat this and it stays around 45% RH on average; getting higher than that has proved quite the challenge. I’ve admired quite a few diaries on here and I hope everyone enjoys my rookie season.

420Fastbuds Cinderella Auto Week 1 of Veg These 2 have sprouted and are off to the races. Both sprouted amazing after 48hrs of being in the soil. Still misting the top soil to keep moist with my hand sprayer but will start to manual water of 500ml every other day this coming week. All in all Happy Growing
