Sorry for the long break, I was in the hospital and couldn't do anything, so I skipped a week. 😏😅 This is the first time I have used a different brand of fertilizer for these plants, Madame Grow from the USA. I'm curious how it works and what the result looks like otherwise ALWAYS Biobizz, of which I also use the All Mix!👌 I am going to top the 3 feminized plants again today because of the size 😁🤔 The automatic is already full but I am almost sure that I planted it too early 😁🤔it is my first automatic 😁🤣 We'll see, my balcony project remains exciting! In this sense, stay healthy and cool 😉👌👍

Week 2 – Rapid Growth and Key Adjustments Another Friday, another update! It’s been an exciting week in the grow tent, and the plants are showing some serious progress. They've nearly doubled in height and are now spreading out to fill the pots, making it clear that these FastBuds seeds really live up to their name. After seeing how quickly they’ve grown, it’s easy to understand where the "fast" comes from! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key Growing Parameters -Humidity: 70% -VPD: Max 1.0 -Airflow: Always active at level 1, auto-adjusts when needed -Day Temperature: 25-26°C -Night Temperature: 22°C -Light Cycle: 18 hours light / 6 hours dark -Lamp: IONBOARD S24 from AC Infinity (240W) -Watering Schedule: -Day 8: 100ml -Day 10: 300ml -Day 12: 500ml ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adjusting the Light Distance Early in the week, I noticed two of the leaves were showing slight stress due to being too close to the light. The leaves were slightly deformed, and it was clear they weren’t happy with the intense light exposure. After adjusting the light distance to a safer height, the plants began to recover. However, while the stressed leaves improved gradually throughout the week, they’ve retained some of those early deformations. Thankfully, every leaf that grew after that has been perfectly healthy and vibrant, which confirmed that the issue was indeed the light being too close. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Observing the Rapid Growth The early days were exciting as the plants seemed to grow rapidly, but at first, they felt fragile, with their thin, delicate stems struggling to hold up the weight of the new leaves. It almost seemed like they might topple over at any moment. However, by the end of Week 2, they’ve transformed into sturdy, small trees. Their once fragile stems are now solid little trunks, and it’s amazing to see how much stronger they appear. Not only have the stems thickened, but the plants have also developed an abundance of leaves. In just a few days, they’ve gone from having four small leaves to over ten broad, healthy leaves per plant. It's incredible to witness how quickly they’re packing on foliage. Every day, it seems like there’s something new happening – more leaves, more structure, and a visibly stronger plant. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- No Noticeable Difference Between Strains (Yet!) Interestingly, as of now, I can’t see any major differences between the three Amnesia Zkittlez and the single Gorilla Cookies plant. As a beginner, they’re growing at a similar rate and look so alike that if I hadn’t labeled them, I wouldn’t be able to tell them apart! Luckily, everything is organized and clearly marked, so when the differences do start to show, I’ll be ready to observe them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Watering Progress By Day 10, the plants were continuing to thrive, so I increased the water intake to 300ml per plant. The plants adapted well, showing no signs of overwatering or nutrient deficiency. Two days later, on Day 12, I upped the watering amount again to 500ml per plant. Even with this larger amount of water, the plants have been absorbing it perfectly. There’s been no excess water draining from the pots, which is a great sign. The soil remains slightly moist underneath, indicating that the roots are successfully drawing water from deeper layers. Now, on Friday evening, it’s been 48 hours since the last watering, and the soil is still holding moisture. It looks like I can wait until tomorrow (Day 15) to water again. The soil is still slightly moist at the bottom of the pots, showing that the roots are reaching deep enough to access the water. The plants themselves look strong and healthy, so everything seems to be on track! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- PH Levels and Future Fertilization Until now, I’ve been relying on the pH readings from our local water provider, trusting their reports to guide me. However, to ensure I have more precise control over the growing conditions, I’ve invested in a BlueLab pH pen. This will allow me to accurately measure the pH of the water myself and make sure everything is perfectly dialed in for the plants. Even though I initially planned not to use any fertilizers, I’ve decided to start using nutrients next week. I’ll be following the Biobizz feeding schedule, incorporating BioGrow, BioBloom, and TopMax into my routine. This decision came after observing how fast the plants are growing and realizing that they could benefit from a nutrient boost to ensure continued healthy development. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Optimizing With AC Infinity and Looking Ahead Throughout the week, I’ve been relying heavily on the automated settings from the AC Infinity App, which has been a lifesaver for someone like me who’s still learning the ropes. Other than reducing the air intake and airflow to keep the humidity high at this early stage, I haven’t had to manually adjust much. The system has been doing a great job maintaining the environment, with 70% humidity, a VPD under 1.0, and consistent temperatures between 25-26°C during the day and 22°C at night. There’s still a lot to learn, and I’ve heard from other growers that AutoFlowers can handle 24 hours of light or even 20/4, but for now, I’m sticking with the more traditional 18/6 light schedule recommended by AC Infinity. I’ll keep observing and might experiment with different light cycles in the future. As I move forward into Week 3, I’m eager to see how the plants will continue to grow and evolve. With each passing day, I’m learning more about their needs and how to fine-tune the environment to keep them happy. So far, they’ve been thriving, and I can’t wait to see what’s next on this journey. FastBuds certainly lives up to the name, and if the first two weeks are any indicator, I’m in for an exciting ride! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personal Reflections Looking back, I’m honestly surprised at how quickly I’ve become immersed in this process. What started as a curiosity has quickly turned into a rewarding experience. Every day I learn something new, whether it’s adjusting light distances, managing water intake, or monitoring humidity levels. There’s something incredibly satisfying about seeing the results of your efforts in real time – from those first fragile sprouts to the sturdy plants I have now. As a complete beginner, I was unsure how well I’d manage everything, but seeing the plants thrive has given me a lot of confidence. I realize that growing is just as much about patience as it is about action. I’m looking forward to what’s ahead, but I’m already enjoying the journey. For anyone starting out, it’s all about learning and adapting – and, most importantly, enjoying the process!

2018-04-02. Week 3 day 1. It was time too upgrade the 0.1 liter pot too the 1 liter. Did the transplant today. They are a little bit overwatered but i will let them dry out now. This is the newest release from RQS seeds. And i will veg her under a Apollo 10 led and flower her in Growroom Nr2 under a 600 w Hps on a light mover. Its a organic grow and i will be using BioBizz nutrients. Strain information. Fat Banana is a unique tropical indica/sativa hybrid. It is the result of crossing delicious Banana and outstanding OG Kush genetics. The strain demonstrates amazing potency and the THC level reaches to 25%. The plant develops a strong and long central cola and grows up 80-140 cm tall. Fat Banana develops a huge bushy structure outdoors. The flowering period takes 7-8 weeks and the harvest brings 350-400 g/m² under a 600w light indoor and 450 - 500 gr/plant outdoor.

Gender Feminised Genes 50% indica / 50% sativa Genetics Banana x OG Kush Harvest 350 - 400 gr/m2 Flowering 7-8 weeks

A ver, la planta va muy bien, crece muy bien, tragando agua sigue igual, al mismo ritmo, cada 2 o 2 dias y medio le hecho sus 3 litros, y a veces riego con 7 para que drene algo. Ahora bien, el amarillo... ¿Porque está tan amarilla!? -Puede ser por haber pecado de ir flojo con los nutrientes. Falta de potasio. -Puede ser por bloqueo por PH o por sales. -Puede ser un hongo. -O puede ser, y es aquí mi teoría jajajaja, que dado que esta planta ya la he cultivado dos veces mas antes, la primera vez, fue bastante mejor que la segunda y pude asegurar el lavado y llegar bien a sus últimas fases y tal (se cagó en el secado que duró 4 dias jajajaja pero bueno, de todo se aprende) y lo curioso, es que en ese primer cultivo, me amarilleo también muuy pronto, con las mismas manchas y de aquí mi teoria: este genotipo alarga el uso del nitrogeno hasta fases avanzadas de floracion y además empieza a tirar de reservas antes de lo habitual (lo cual explicaría que esta es una de esas plantas que en una semana ha madurado y no te das cuenta) y dado que en floracion el ph se baja, yo lo fui bajando conforme arrancó el stretching por lo que le fui limitando las reservas de nitrogeno antes de lo que ESTE GENOTIPO pide, y de ahí el amarillenteo de la mayoria de las hojas. Como tengo todavía varias semillas mas de esta, seguiré plantándola a ver hasta donde podemos llevarla y gracias a cosas como estas, ir aprendiendo por el proceso. PD: tengo ramas atadas o apoyadas a la pared por que se caen del peso xD

Plants are looking good! I harvested the 2 plants on the left on D82. Drying them in a 4x2 rn, the 2 remaining plants will stay in flower tent until the drying tent clears up. They could use an extra 10 days for a little more size :). Very strong smell! my carbon filter was struggling haha. D78 10L D81 8L D82 2 harvested

En general han mantenido un crecimiento estable y continuo, la White Widow que presentaba carencia de azufre, ha evolucionado muy bien, esta fue la ultima semana de la fase de crecimiento, pasando a fase de floración, cambiando a foto periodo 12/12, al igual que se aplicó de forma foliar Delta 9 (estimulante de floración).

02/26/2022 Just enoying the smell, pollination was successful! On #6 seeds forming nicely 🙏🏻 Also some weird stretching I'm top buds from accidentally leaving light's on a couple days. But should be good. looks like my efforts to pollinate one branch didn't do so well plenty of seeds to grow out now lower buds look clean of pollen no sign of pollination. Should start adding weight in next two weeks.

Ich kann mich über rein gar nichts beschweren. Bis jetzt würde ich dem Durchgang eine 9,5/10 geben und dem Strain sogar eine 10/10. Diesen intensiven beerigen, süßen Candy Geruch habe ich noch nie in meinem Leben gerochen. Ich bin überwältigt. Nichtmal in Californien habe ich so etwas gerochen.

Meninas felizes nessa 3 semana de flor!entrando na 4 semana e espero mais neves nesse mar verde!

My apologies on never giving a smoke report. I ran into a situation where I had 2 weeks to move across country. I don't like to include untrue data to my expectation/ perceptions.

So life got busy but here's the harvest pics she was and is a delicious strain I still have a mother and don't plan on getting rid of her anytime soon

Week is going good aside from me accidently cutting off a stem on pheno 2. If I can properly save the cutting though I might have a chance at another female. Pheno 3 I'm hoping can make some comeback as I really want to flower the plant, its not dead by any means but the way its growing I just cant see it allowing itself to flower the top leaves were barely growing so I topped. Hopefully positive changes within the next week.

Que pasa familia, como podéis comprobar tienen un pequeño exceso de nutrientes, algunas hojas doblan hacia abajo, no obstante , esta variedad está empezando apestar con un olor bastante peculiar. Es una variedad que como te descuides también crece bastante, controlamos los parámetros de la temperatura y la humedad en lo establecido, 0 problemas en ese aspecto. Veremos cómo reaccionas esta próxima semana al overdrive y si notamos ya las diferencias.

What a frosty strain, rivals Stardawg in the stickiness. Good resin potential Not a big feeder, normal levels do the trick as they will show some burn if they dont like it. Not a stinker at all Will try to foxtail @ 85F The stretch caused by the tent space issues with the Green Crack really shows here, man 2 ft of plant that was not needed. My fault, start flower under blue or white lights until stretch ends as they will get tall Serious stretch under HPS Excellent genetics, taste test in a few days I _ WANT_ MORE ... please 😉 Letting the FF7 stay in the tent a bit longer, removed all but the small fans to keep the air moving but slow down the rate. Just test weights (love hanging them like this) say @200g a plant. maybe we will see Almost forgot, pulling a small branch from Aeryn to test Easy harvest, nice dense frosty sticky buds, cannot ask for more.

So far she's a quick growing food loving easy strain to grow takes everything I throw at it . Did some trimming of branches and took a few clones . Next week's update will feature the tnt growth formula with feeding
