Another great week, saw some great bud production and stacking. All great signs of a good yield. Increased the bloom nutrients to accommodate the plants demands during this intense growth spurt, while making sure they are balanced with a straight phd water feed to help break up any deposits that may be accumulating. When I use just water, I’ll water until I see about a 15% runoff, and test the ph of the runoff, should be within your 5.8-6.3 range. I’ve got lots of airflow keeping things moving to help prevent PM and pests. After every feed, I’ll spray a mixture of water, a drop or two of dish soap, and some type of essential oil, around the base of the pots and tent basin as part of my pest management/protection. I have yet to have any type of pests, despite growing in an unfinished basement situation. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️👊

Wow! She has been upgraded to a 4x4 tent with 600w of flowering lights (2x Mars Hydro TSL2000; 300w each) and she is LOVING IT! Continuing on the Early Bloom nute schedule and holding a super-solid pH/EC through the end of this week. Her uptake has started to slow, so I'm thinking that she is close to being done with stretch. She is definitely going crazy with buds as it looks to me like they swell more each day. I've been very happy with her growth so far; impressed even. I'm just hoping that the increased lighting doesn't cause her to herm due to the close distance. Updates will continue weekly, and, until then, Grower Love and thanks for stopping by the garden. ~Spaz

Very strong MAC aromas with a fruity and sweet breath!!! Strong like perfume. Wouldn’t they be growed by myself, I would think they were sprayed 😋 Pictures can’t show the real size of this nugs

This week has been a good one! Not too much more stretch just simply filling up both the spaces with foliage and swollen buds! I’m now watering 6L every 3 days and she’s soaking it all up! Will feed strong for one more week then 2 weeks of flush :) Dehumidifier turned on and set at 40%, ambient air temp dropped to 23/24 day time and 18 with lights off, air flow changed up daily to really help her. Getting keen to harvest/cure/smoke and then put in the next round! 😊 I hope all my followers and readers are well and have great holidays! Keep growing, keep smoking and most of all keep smiling! Much love! 👌✌️👍💐💨😎

I will try and update daily Germination requires 3 things - Darkness , Warmth , Water One thing i should mention - Growing autoflowers, is difficult to do well,why? because from the moment that seed sprouts, you have a finite amount of time before she is finished, so any fucking about with anything ( repotting,pests,nutrient issues) , will lower yield.You can sometimes get them finished in 10 weeks on 20/4 but unless you have a controlled environment its hard to go more than 18/6 without heat and humidity issues.Autoflower breeding has come a long way in the last 10 years,Fast Buds is one of the pioneers. Day 1 - Tuesday 16/10/18 Put into wet root it cubes , then into the net pots with the clay pebbles, then pots into my rooting dwc boxes , placed a dome over the top to increase the humidity . Day 2 - Weds , nothing happening yet ! Day 3 - Thursday , I think she has popped , not quite up yet , see pink picture Turned light on 17/7 , why ? because I think this is best @ 13-15,000 lux Bestva 800 (150 watt draw) Led approx £100 , I would buy the dimable cob version if you can .(900 or 1200) Day 4 - Friday , looks a little distorted , has she got three leaves ? night time took a pic on the G7 .... Day 5 - Saturday , definitely three leaves , might just be the first node , fingers crossed she will be fine , was quite worried she wouldn’t make it , gave her 20 ml of room temperature water , with a syringe onto the root it cube , Day 6 - Sunday , looking ok , nice and green , I’m hoping the roots will be into the reservoir by now , you have to love fast buds , the germination rates are almost 100% , I have included a picture with the rest of the pots , for reference , there is a gorilla glue and a tangiematic, two of my favourite Fast Buds strains , which I started around the same time , IMPORTANT- do no let the root it cubes dry out before the roots are into the reservoir , make sure the bottom of the net pot DOES NOT touch the water Day 7 - Monday , I checked the water level and the ph , it has lost a little due to evaporation , root is well into the reservoir , I will add some nutrients tomorrow, seed on top right has pushed up but no leaves, this is NOT a fast buds seed, just shows u,... i have also put more pebbles in to cover up the holes, it would be nice if they did a pot that didnt have holes all the way to the top !!! Building DWC - you can build a DWC quite easily , out of cheap items , the ones in this week , were made by a friend of mine (Kev) when he spotted the box at Poundland for £1 - all you need is a black plastic box ( black so no light penetrates the roots ) with a lid , a 127mm hole cutter , air pump with tube and air stone , 140mm net pots to go in holes , some clay pebbles , and root it cubes , I will make a little instructional video , the reason I put them in here is because I will transfer into my IWS oxypots , which are too big to go into the tent ,and as the led is better with small plants it’s much easier .

FLOWER WEEK 8: Late Bloom Ripening & Heavy Stacking | AK-47 XL ​🌿 FLOWERING PROGRESS ​We have advanced into Week 8 of the flowering phase, and the AK-47 XL is deep in her final ripening stage. The plant has successfully navigated the peak of the summer heat and is now putting all of its remaining energy into swelling and resin production. ​The colas across the Scrog net have become remarkably thick and heavy, showing massive structural density. The trichome coverage has expanded even further, giving the entire canopy a frosty, glistening silver appearance under the lights. Pistils are increasingly turning amber-orange as the buds mature and harden into solid chunks. The overall health of the canopy remains strong, successfully utilizing the maxed-out nutrient profile to fill out every single top above the screen. 📈 ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING ​The plant is keeping up a high metabolic pace, effectively absorbing the heavy nutrient doses to maximize the final weight and compact structure of the buds. ​Current Feeding Schedule (per Liter): ​Bio-Bloom: 4.0 ml/l ​Top-Max: 4.0 ml/l ​Bio-Grow: 1.0 ml/l ​Bio-Heaven: 5.0 ml/l ​Acti-Vera: 5.0 ml/l ​Calmag: 1.0 ml/l ​Parameters (Weekly Averages): ​pH: 6.3 ​Relative Humidity (RH): 58.9% (Good, dropping trend to secure the dense buds) ​Temperature: 27.8°C ​VPD: 1.54 kPa (Perfect sweet spot for late-stage ripening and metabolic drive) ​CO2: 565 ppm ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE ​👀 Status Report: The environment is looking great for late bloom. Having the weekly average humidity at 58.9% with a steady VPD of 1.54 kPa provides the plant with the exact transpiration drive it needs to pack on weight without stressing the tissue. The maximum feeding of Bio-Heaven and Acti-Vera at 5.0 ml/l each has done wonders to keep the plant vibrant and active through these final weeks. The aroma is incredibly strong and pungent now. We are approaching the finish line, and she looks absolutely legendary! 🚀l km

I’m still not sure about the FIM job on the LSD, and the purple haze is looking a bit runtish, but we’ll see how they go. I cut some leaves on the PH today to give the bud sites beneath them more light. All in all, they are doing well I think.

11/09/2023 The size of the buds may seem rather ridiculous, but without fertilizer, using only 50% enriched soil, with the remaining 50% lacking nutrients, only 10 liters pots, and 100W of LED, I am really surprised by the results. The smells and the quality is quite amazing for someone like me who's always consumed only black market products. I'm looking forward to the harvest, but #3 is not ready yet(Main cola seems good but the trichomes on the lower part of the buds are still transparent.) , so I continue to remove the yellow-brown leaves that almost fall off on their own. I cant put the video in 1080p I'm limited to 720p.

Definitely one of the taller ones out of the 12. I need a few good daytime strains with energy & no anxious paranoia. I'm working on finding more of them for daytime motivation.

This week I brought my @STRNG seeds tent grow outside for a day/night to cool off. Because of our extreme temperatures and because my grow tent is in the garage, it is too hot for my plant. I really need to turn on the garage air conditioner, but my husband complains about the electric bill-heheh. She needed the cooler weather outside and a break from my nutrients I think. She looks a hot mess with all of her yellow leaves, so I defoliated all the ugly ones so she could regain her youth appearance. It rained a little last night and I included a picture of the the rain water in a measuring cup to show how much it rained. Hopefully, I can correct whatever I am doing wrong and we can continue with a healthy grow. The plan is to turn the air condition on and cool the grow tents environment. @STRNG seeds Sex Panther is till growing by adding 2 inches to her height and flowering beautifully. We are in our 2nd week of flowering! @STRNG seeds website says it should be indoor height between 100-120cm. We are currently at 55 cm so we are a little short right now but that could be because it is too hot in the grow tent. Her buds are beautiful and she looks great. Until next week, Be happy.
