2 Girls 1 Cup week 9? Short term memory loss is a m'fer... *edit* i have talked directly to quite a few suppliers/vendors/etc... and i can tell you FastBuds is a great company to do business with. im not licking boots here... i paid for my beans, and am loving these FastBuds genetics so far. JUST LOOK AT IT! a little short, but i think thats my fault from around the day 21ish mark if ya look back in the diary. i told myself i wasnt going to run any more autos, unless it was some odd occasion. but IF i do in the future... it WILL be FastBuds. unless this pink runtz i have ends up being an auto, and if it is.. im going to off the fucker lol. Day 56- GC is trying to catch up. I think stabbing the main helped a lil lol. Few random plucks on WG tonight, and don't even want to start on GC for now. May clean it up a bit later depending on how the back feels. It's got a ton of branches that are going to be too close REAL soon. Kinda f'd GC off over a week ago, and said I'd run it again in the future to make up for it. So not too pressed on how it looks, as long as it stays alive until WG chopping day. Atleast it wasn't a male 🤣. Anyway, bumped the girls up to the "aggressive" mid bloom GHE feed. Using TAP water to reduce the amount of calmag needed since mine has N in it.. Breakdown as follows: 5gal TAP water - 137ppm 15mL calmag - up to 252ppm 10mL hydroguard Micro- 33mL Grow- 33mL Bloom- 47.5mL RES total after PH correction - 818 @ 5.91. ============================================================================================= Day 57- I REALLY need to cut back GC... like yesterday... backs been hurting something fierce, and I'm out of my medicine of choice ATM. few random plucks on WG today. may make my way in there again later and start hacking away at GC. will update pic if I do. They're both liking aggressive feed, maybe a touch too heavy on the N though. *edit* 🎶oops, i, stabbed it again...🎶 lol. still feel there's a branch that's gotta go. Started pulling WG out some to help expose lowers. Need more garden wire for sure ============================================================================================= Day 58- cut back GC even more.. we'll keep it alive, but I'll make sure it doesn't block the beloved WG. remember, there will be a list of things I learned I did WRONG in this experiment and will share at the conclusion. Trimmed up WG little bit later in their morning. Top view pic is after the small defol. Some fans only had the middle finger snipped, to be on the safe side. Progress seems slow on WG atm, but it's getting ready to fatten up and mature. ============================================================================================= Day 59- i just cut back GC AGAIN!!! like HALF of its branches, and cut all the tops to the same length before snapping todays pic. after comparing 58 to 59's pic... it STILL looks like it grew.. WTF... that things confused ASF or something... just dont herm on me... WG finish is right around the corner.. a few weeks... hang in there GC... hang in there... ive been topping off with 80% strength nutes and RO water, and the EC has remained pretty consistent. may bump em up one more time for WG next week to help fatten her up some. right before we dial it all back for the end. WG already looking pretty frosty, and the weatherman is predicting some more in the next weeks. *edit* added a night vid to show my WG defol struggles. Its easier to see why the foliage looks so thick and it needs a trim when lights on when you see lights off.. We're down to a few fans towards the bottom to help out down there. Rest are connected to bud sites, and are limited. May need to add a small fan blowing up WG skirt soon. ============================================================================================= Day 61- nothing really to report. tried to kill the ice probe, and put frozen 1L bottle (in 12hr rotations) to see how it performed. i think 61.2 is a little too cold for my liking, and one morning i woke the temp was over 71.. the roots are messing with the flow and the water isnt getting chilled as much with the probe. problem ive been facing for the last week or so. ice probe back in, and warming up the tent with its exhaust again.. should fab up a duct system for a 3d printer... ideas... tinkercad here we go.. ============================================================================================= Day 62- kinda feel bad for leaving GC out of the shot yesterday. Since she's riding along in this experiment... added her back today. WG is starting to phase 2. Her finish is coming within the next 2-3 weeks I'm guessing. Maybe 4? We'll see what tricomes say when the time gets closer. ============================================================================================= Been offered a cut off a custom strain that looks and tastes AMAZING! i know i may have mentioned pink runtz or amnesia lemon next... but i dont think i can pass up this opportunity.. will mention more about it, its name, etc etc when the time gets nearer.. As always, thanks for stopping by and checking out my current grow experiment. Link to YT vid of the day 27 on timelapse https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJO-eTeyyEU

Last week on veg stage, we going to start with flower after clonning this beauty queens

Such a pleasure to grow her, she came from an auto m8 and she ended up being Photoperiod, apart from that I'm glad I've discovered her, because her buds have one of the most special and sweetest fragrance I've ever smelled in a cannabis flower, super sweet and tropical guys, such a cool strain, I definitely want to fill a lot of jars of this for my personal stash, everytime I smell her flowers makes me remember the Caribbean Islands.

Leaves starting to turn purple , will start flushing in two days to take it to 60 days flowering .

Just feed her ph water for the last couples of days I’ll be chopping her down this week due to heat wave in my area .. wish I could let her go few more days At this stage she’s releasing nitrogen still

Day 29 two full weeks after going to 12/12 and she is drinking herself nearly dry daily. I forgot to soak the blumat carrot in water over night. Will be day behind setting up drip feed. She is coming along lovely and has taken well to LST so far. Leaves overall healthy in appearance and feel. Fed to extra runoff Day 30 adjusted lst ties, fed to runoff pH slurry test results came in at 6.0. Right on track. Ppms may have crept up a little but could be from her drinking herself dry in less than 24hrs. Fed her back into range. Day 31 she was parched at lights on. Setting up blumats tonight. Fed to runoff. Got a little more progressive with LST. She's still stretching so I am trying to keep her as flat as I can right now. Removed 2 leaves for better light penetration. Installed troph blumat and 3 gal res. see photos in this week. Since its drip feed, reduced ppms to 650. Will be closely watching until dialed in. Everything was sterilized with 91% iso alc. Day 32 adjusted blumat to increase drip frequency. Pot was drier than I like it to be. Adjusted some lst points, removed 1 fan leave for increased light penetration. The smell of her buds is changing to an herbal incense green vine. Interesting to say the least. Since coco did dry out a little, I manually fed to runoff before adjusting drip rate. Day 33 she drank nearly a gallon in 24 hours, adjusted blumat slightly again, adjusted lst points. Added 2 gal to res. Day 34 blumat ran away over night and dumped most of the res into my drip pans. Refilled res with fresh nutes and adjusted blumats. Increased feed, ppms and pH are in range in root zone, shes just getting a bigger appetite. Adjusted lights and lst points. Since removing a few large fan leaves, lower bud sites have exploded. Should have a decent harvest top to bottom on this one. First day I have not recorded vertical height change. She had stayed the same height for a full 24hrs. Stretch may have finally ended @ 20 days after start of 12/12. She has filled out about 80% of the grow space (5 sqft). Amazing for only a 2 week veg before 12/12 flip. Day 35 last day of the 3rd week since the "flip" and shes coming along right on schedule. Growth from base to main cola seems to have stalled but growth to side branches appears to be still growing. Possibly because of the 130° bend I put in her stalk. I removed 4 leaves today. I feel like I take one and she makes 5 more.

Only moved the LST clips around and the girls are happily growing outwards :) Date: 17.7.2024

Doing really good. I've introduced some flower stacker, worm tea concentrate, hydro guard root inoculant and some calmag with iron. I also started place a layer of ice on top of the medium to trigger trichome and to get them beautiful colors. I've been doing the ice thing in my last couple of harvest and I swear that it increased the trichome coverage and I get some nice colors to pop. I usually go with organic soil amendment for nutrients. However I used a new to me soil called Biochar. It's like a bunch of small pieces of tree bark. It has simular characteristics like I have to water every day because this product dose not retain moisture at all. I did add a good layer about 1 gallon of Purple Cow Indicanja mixed 50/50 with Happy Frog soil. I loosened the first couple of inches in the container with my fingers and worked it into the soil and watered it in slowly. The addition of the new top layer of soil and nutrients have paid off well. I'm still about 3 weeks out from harvest and I can't wait to see how fat these flowers get. They're already the size of golf balls and I swear I can literally see them growing before my eyes, at least a 1/8 of a inch of girth a day. I have two more feedings to go before it's time to start the flushing process and with the addition of the ice I'm anticipating some lovely colors. Cheers!!!

Heute ging es rund. Der Massive Busch wurde ausgedünnt und gelollipoppt. Das Netz habe ich ca. 5 cm höher gemacht.

Part 2 of my vlog. 2x2x5 grow tent Marshydro ts1000 Fastbuds seeds: Strawberry Banana 🍓🍌 Forbidden Runtz Organic grow •Topped with a Light seedling soil •A Organic Compost •A SUPER SOIL MIX as base Hope you enjoy and feedback welcome 😊 Mr.PersonalGrow ✌️

Indoors flowering nicely, brown hairs starting to show. Outdoors still one of the Ultimate still hasn't started to flower. I'm starting to wonder if it's not an auto at all. The gelato is forming nicely, with a little visitor a bee. The other ultimate is also flowering nicely. Day 75, due to hothouse damage the three outdoor plants are now indoors

Testing 9 seeds I expeckt 2 winners 2 losers and 5 ok let’s see how she rolls! The plant the seeds and pollen cam from a seedling I grew from a seed found in a Bag of SFV that J was given 3 of I back crosses the best with itself !! 3 up already!! 6 playing peekaboo 7 of 9 up 2-3 look hands down better plants !! 8 out of 9 up! 9 up 3 losers and 6 to chose a few winners from!! 9 seams to be good number to ensure I find one exception copy usually 2-3 First cut down to the too3 all 9 did germinate!! The three look strong

Very good friends .... we are ready to fill these solid goblets of huge white pistils and this wonderful girl! a greeting to all farmers friends and I hope your crops are vigorous and abundant best regards

more later 3rd Apr, today is day of two Amnesias - its time. they are on peak trichoms are milky 10% amber. Zkittles is on grotek final flush strawberry I trying if it change her smell and she is good now, but I fed her week ago with rocket fuel some fertilizers for peppers (11-6-8) coz im was out with bloom fertilizer, Amnesia 3 get this feed too but little bit improvemed with bio grow and rest of biobloom, yesterday I bought Powder Feeding PK booster/mineral and thats should be good. More later after some smoke :D

Recovered from the topping and defoliation well. Responding to bondage well. Began Biobizz nute feed at half strength. Just letting her do her thing and flower when she is ready.

On day 1 week 4 flower the girls are bulking up smelling great and some pistils are turning orange. The trichomes are still mostly clear with some milky trichomes starting. On day 3 one of my blumats had a runaway I believe from fertilizer sediment all I can do this late in the game is to lower the flow rate and hope that will solve the problem. It is strange that this is the same blumat that flooded when I went on vacation earlier on in the grow. I will inspect the blumat closer when I finish the grow. I tightened the carrot down 1.5 carrots. Except for the minor flood the girls are doing very well, even though they are too close to my grow lights :). On day 6 almost all the buds are starting to have a second growth spurt with some small white pistils showing, the trichome concentration is visibly growing and I expect to harvest the girls between week 8 and 9 of flower.

Kicking off the 10th week and she is looking really great. Buds filling in and she is quickly getting thick with coverage from the 4 way mainline. Took a cutting from the side that needed to be trimmed anyway. Gonna experiment and try to get it to root and then spray with Silver Colloidal to try and get some Black Jack female pollen. But it is probably to far along for that, but definitely wont hurt to try. All good things.

Week 3 of veg and we have topped and started our LST. We are watering every other day with dechlorinated tap water PH’d at 6.2. We use recharge once a week with our waterings usually after inducing stress.
