Week 2 of veg is in the books. Despite making some changes and dropping back to a 300w fixture, also upping the nute ratios - growth has been pretty decent for a single first week of veg. Got some yellowing on the leaves which is somewhat concerning. Again, hopefully rectified now that we’ve regulated to more acceptable temps and humidity. All are fairly uniform to start and the new bucket system has been issue free which is a bonus. Figure another week to the fim and then another week of veg before the flip. All on pace to get em to flower as quick as possible👌. We’ll cull as soon as able - if we pick up 3/4 spaces after losing the males that would greatly assist to free up some more space elsewhere and move in some new fems that have been backlogged recently. Finally back to focusing on quality buds and it’s and great feeling👍. Strain details She’s a mix of a particularly strong Northern Lights, crossed with a Spicy Bitch sativa hybrid. The hope is that we’ll be able to combine the overtly narcotic effects in the NL and mellow it out somewhat with the quality daytime sativa effects found in the SB. Both strains feature numerous grower qualities. Both parents possessed vigour and resiliency, the SB particularly colourful in late flower. These beans were the product of a shotgun breeding run that presented an unexpected opportunity so there’s quite a bit of testing that should flow from the various F1’s we’ve produced.

The grow went pretty good! It sort of got out of hand during the stretch, and stretched way more than I wish it would. Top buds had some light stress at the end. One cola got mold the day before chop. Easy strain to grow, though the stretch really was too much for my little tent. Will update further once it is finished drying and curing.

*****Week 14 growth – March 13 to 19, 2021 – Week 6 flower ****** Feeding has ended this week and we are in flush mode now. The girls have just started to slow down their drinking and pistols are changing colour, buds are swelling, they are getting ready to finish. Added the UV and IR light bars in this week. Started the week with just one bar and then both in place by end of week. Each bar has 10 x 730nm, 10 x 395nm, 6 x 660nm pulling 30 watts each. Trichome enhancers!! Working with the new light this run I have certainly pushed them with more light intensity than they should have received, broke 1100 PAR for a bit. This has also started to cause some foxtails to begin rather than staying compact and swelling the buds. Know for next time……always changes to make 😊 Little more detail….. Mar 13/21, Day 36 - Feed day with full line of Innovating Plant Products but at ¾ strength. - Keeping up the feeding but thinking about nitrogen levels and working on reducing. - feeding with grow – 0.5, micro – 1.5, bloom – 2.5, ult B – 0.5, carbs – 0.75, B Storm – 2, S Storm – 3, Terp – 3, Jet Fuel – 1.5, Rezin 1 - 1300ppm and 6.2pH - MM1 – 4L and MM2 – 3L - Added in the first UV bar today Mar 14/21, Day 37 - Seeing lots of swelling these days from the girls. - Microbe feeding today…….possibly last round of microbes. - Plain tap water with Recharge @ ½ tsp/gal and Natures Candy @ 1.5ml - 400ppm and 6.1pH - 3L all around today…..very little run off. Mar 15/21, Day 38 - Another feed day today. Last week of feed so pushing them a little more. No Grow added! Last couple of feeds with CalMag as well, seeing some magnesium issues so giving last dose. - feeding with micro – 1.5, bloom – 2.5, ult B – 0.5, carbs – 1, B Storm – 2.5, S Storm – 3, Terp – 3, Jet Fuel – 1.5, MagNifiCal – 1.5ml - 1175ppm and 6.0pH - MM1 – 4L and MM2 – 3L - Mar 16/21, Day 39 - Just giving the basic building blocks at this stage. Most of the supplements not added this feeding. - feeding with Grow – 0.5, micro – 1.5, bloom – 2, carbs – 1, Rezin – 1.5ml, MagNifiCal – 0.5ml - 875ppm and 6.0pH - MM1 – 4L and MM2 – 2.5L Mar 17/21, Day 40 - Last Feed Day……calling it at day 40 this run!!!!! - 4L of feed water left from yesterday so added in 12L of RO water to keep the ppm down. - Left over plus Rezin @ 2ml, Overdrive @ 2ml (its hard to let go of your routines…I have been using Overdrive for so long……it feels wrong to not be using it this run….snuck in a couple ml😊) - 485ppm and 6.0pH - MM1 – 4L and MM2 – 2.5L - Light power pushed back up to 525 watts……..keeping the intensity up to hit the lower bud sites….will see what happens to the uppers. Mar 18/21, Day 41 - Starting flush but not hitting the pots with 12 gallons of water each type of flush! Will just drop the ppm down to nothing and use RO water……planning on having close to 3 weeks to flush….second guessing that I really have that long though so may actually end up adding a flushing agent to the girls…..decide in the next 4 days so can leave plain water time if I do. - Watering with Enzymes @ 2ml…….clean up the roots and help them get more of the ppm out of the media. - 100ppm and 5.9pH……..missed the pH but not adding both up and down, ran with this. - Light power pulled back down 480 watts Mar 19/21, Day 42 - Dry out day today. Will be letting the pots get dryer now before adding more moisture. - Leaving them for today though. Give flushing agent in next 2 days if going to. - Work down the light intensity more in next couple of days as well. - UV lights going now for 3 hours per day on both fixtures at the middle of the light schedule.

Slowly increasing nutrients and lowing the pH a little at a time. Growth is a little slower than I anticipated, but I've read that coco often starts out a little on the slow side. Both girls don't have the sturdiest stems, but I've added some support and fans to try and get those trunks a little stronger. I know the Meph guide talks about funny leaves, and both of these girls have a little something special about them. Reggie is much bigger and had some two lobes younger leaves whereas Weezie is smaller in stature but stared out with more uniform leaves, but now has a funny ripple. It's always fun to watch how they grow! I was hoping to top them, but now I'm getting cold feet...

The seedling had a solid first week. There was misting only when the soil was dry. True leaves showed up right on schedule, stretch stayed reasonable, and by the end of the week the plant was clearly established ~3+ inches with no major stress signals. A few light-distance tweaks and humidity adjustments but overall a successful seedling phase, good foundation set!! Until next week!

this pheno was covered with resin, with plenty of snow covered sugar leaves, so this strain could definitely be good a source of sativa hash oil. medicinal potentials include migraines, depression, and fatigue

Overall this was an excellent grow. I was not prepared for the huge growth and yield from the high frequency fertigation growing in coco, and the genetics of the Blue Dream'Matic. I should have defoliated it a bit more earlier on, just due to how vigorous the growth was. But I will not complain with 200g dried bud from 3sqft of tent under a HLG100 light. Hats off to Fastbuds for the great genetics. I really feel like my growing came together at a new level this time, and I am excited to experiment with even more improvements next grow! Thanks for reading!

Still at 1/4 strength..I'm gonna flush before I up the nutrients cause I think ph may be fluctuating. I saw slight yellowing in veins yesterday. Other than that pretty happy, she still hasn't developed that signature diesel smelll but I'm sure its coming soon 😎

I absolutely fall in love with Gorilla Strawberry! Amazing strain ! I see 5-6 phenotypes 1. Is small indica dominant with very fast flowering 2. is dark purple I have never grown a strain with such a beautiful dark purple my favorite 3 is very resinous with big buds and looks like the main photo of Gorilla Strawberry on fast buds web site 4 Is with bright pink pistils 5. Smaller plant with very thin sativa leaves and very thick main cola 6 is a giant sativa dominant with very broad branching, which is just starting to throw flowers and I guess it will grow for at least 11 weeks Compared to Gorilla Zkytllez seems to me Genetics is a bit volatile However, they have one thing in common with a crazy amount of resin and a wonderful sweet fruity scent. I can not stop sniffing buds very pleasant smell I feel like a junkie :D I could sniff this all day But there is one minor problem for me . While one phenotype begins to bloom and needs Bud Ignitor for a larger number of flowering sites, another could be ready in about 2 weeks and needs overdrive to compaction the flower... When I compare phenotype number 1 and phenotype number 6 looks like a completely different strain, the only thing they have together is a large amount of resin and a wonderful smell. But that's just a problem with my growing style, because I mix fertilizers in a big bucket for all plants equally and I don't have time to mix for each one separately Finally, there is a photo of a thick stem that I probably burned when watering with fertilizer

Week 4 (3/14/22 - 3/20/22) Added a 3 gallon reservoir and set up 2 pumps. One to oxygenate and mix the reservoir and the other to feed the plants through drip irrigation. Also drilled a hole on a corner of the tray to drain the run off into a cup. Originally thought of recirculating the water but rather not deal with pH and PPM fluctuations.
