Hello. This is the end of veg and the first week of flowering, starting tonight. Man what a cold spring around here. We had a week of over 21* c through the day. But the last couple of weeks have been cold, barely getting over 13* c through the day. I didn't open the tent till noon because it was raining here. So, these plant will be going into flowering tonight. I'll be lowering my bamboo type of net later this week that will hold up the big BlackMoon buds. Got 2 males to work with this year. Panty Punch and Pinoal Kush (my own cross) These males should make some good seeds this year, they are "FREE" if you want to do a diary on them. I use a 3 dollar international stamp and a Christmas card to get them to you, I just want a diary done in return. The plants inside will be put into flowering a week after the ones in the greenhouse. I know it will take me a week to harvest the ones in the greenhouse. The plants in the greenhouse all got a big drink of rainwater last night and all had their first overflow into the reservoir. I'll be mixing up some flowering nutrient for the next watering. Well, that is the end of the FFFB comic book. Hope you enjoyed it. He's one of my favorite artist. I'll find something else weird to show you next week and for the rest of the diary. Ok. Be Great. Chuck.

Almost 2m size

First day under led lights after receiving the fresh cuttings. All of them are healthy but unfortunately is the night temperature at the moment a bit to low. All lights are dimmed; the sunlight leds on the lowest setting and the Cree cobs around 20%. Output watts for all leds is at the moment 280W. PAR readings coming up in the next days 💡 Now the PAR readings: 3x3 measurements at plant tip. Front row to the back. Measurements in mmol/m2s with the quantumsensor from apogee. 400,570,400,550,620,610,410,470,410. Around 500 in average.

This grow was pretty simple ! They went a total of 103 days from seed! Very trichomy dense buds with the smell of Berries vanilla and skunk ! This is a must try for you all Fastbuds has the greats!!!

Switched to 12/12 light schedule. 😎

- WEEK 8 - ----- Day 50 ----- Woo hoo. End is in sight and the plants are still PACKING the pounds on. Big Bertha is 11 inches long, 2 inches wide. The hidden massive Gertha is 8 inches in circumference in the middle in just bud alone and isn't even the largest part of this 8 inch long nug... Fed 1150ppm 13L 6.4pH 5-15+ days left. 2-4 days till I start looking into trichome finish period. Forgot to take a regular full shot and shots of tropicanna glookies. oh well. Later tonight if I remember. I stopped bud candy cause I'm using a lot more molasses and its literally a sugar in itself so why put in bud candy which is just sugars... seems redundant. ----- Day 51 ----- Easy day of watching. Some nice bud shots today. The whole basement smells of weed candy. Back right Tropicanna is pineapple gummy bear, front right is just gummy bear. Wedding Cake is like sweet weed, you get the regular smell of pot but instead of skunky its sweet but that Tropicanna is just alllll candy no weed smell at all. I did the first 60x shot today. 5% cloudy 95% clear on the Tropicanna. Long ways to go. I'll be doing the Wedding Cake later tonight, got side tracked. ----- Day 52 ----- Fed 1200ppm 6.4ph 12 Liters Tropicanna Glookies is going full blown purple. Should be covered in dark purple coloration within the week. Wedding Cake is just fat. Super fat large nugs. Easy day. Forgot to take trichome pics of Wedding Cake will do that later today probably. Well, the largest bud is 1 foot in circumference now... rofl ----- Day 53 ----- Easy day. Fed some water, they're getting thirsty again. I'm going to do a 13L feeding , then next day 5L water. So that's what I did today. I'll be dropping the Kool Bloom Powder & CaliMagic by day 56 and only feed 1/2 strength molasses only. Will pick the buds off as they finish, not gonna do 1 big chop unless it manages to turn out that way. Colors are going wild. Will check Wedding Cake & Tropicanna trichomes before lights out will update pics then. ----- Day 54 ----- 1300ppm 13L 6.4ph fed Here's some pics. Wedding Cake is nowhere near ready by the trichomes. Barely any cloudy, no amber. ----- Day 55 ----- Tropicanna really turning purple now starting to infect the leaves at top of canopy. Can't wait for what Day 63 holds for all these ladies. Not going to check trichomes till probably day 58 Easy day, last fert feed with chemical nutrients tomorrow, after that its just molasses. ----- Day 56 ----- Didnt even bother with ppm/pH. Molasses. roughly 30-50ml in 13-15 Liters. Smoked a tester of the Tropicana Glookies (Sativa) God daaaamn. Shits fire. Extremely strong. Very Cerebral and its not even at its peak yet... I've chosen Tuesday as Harvest day for both Tropicana Glookies plants (they're clones of each other) A single Wedding Cake testing nug is drying right now, I'll judge when it gets harvested based on the high, and if not sufficiently near my level i'll give it 2 days before drying another nug and trying again. I want heavy ass couch-lock. 6 days for Tropicana. Probably 8 for Wedding Cake. Will send samples off to Canvas Labs for testing like I've done in the past and will be making both edibles and bubble hash and will post those here as they happen. Once thats done I will see if I can restart veg mode in this grow, and if so I will keep this going until the plants die (and just make side diaries for each individual plant variety grow). Should be interesting. *** update *** Where'd the 1.5 Liter water bottle go? rofl

Get out the way she’s about to blow 💢💣💥 it’s been a hot week this week I’ve had to dim the lights a bit a take the drivers out the tent to cool it down a bit. Might be a good thing she seem to be fading a little so hopefully diming the lights will slow down the rate she’s using nutes. I fed the worms some banana within a couple of days the turned it into fresh casting she seems to have started her swell too. Until next week let’s get it 💪🏽

Going great so far except the 2 Gorilla Zkittles are still a little far behind but they are starting to bounce back! Day 18 everything finally transplanted in 5 gallon pots except the hulk berry is in the 3 gallon, hopefully the 1 small gorilla zkittles hits a growth spurt soon🤞🏼

one of the plants was eaten by snails 😕☹️ i have a spare of the same strain that hatches in pellets

Here we are week 6 of veg and about 10 days from flipping to flower just want to give her some time to recoup and fill in more then we flip and watch the stretch.. shout out to Zamnesia Seeds for the opportunity to grow this strain.. hope all is well and Merry Christmas to all!! God bless 🙌.. Plant dimensions are.. 24inx23in .. she's gonna be a tight squeeze in my flower tent, which is 27x27x63 and i look forward to filling that tent completely.. happy about this one.Good luck to all and happy growing ✌️ https://www.zamnesia.com/us/35-cannabis-seeds/368-zamnesia-seeds

Cherry Limeade von Doja – Wochenupdate 🌱 Bei der Cherry Limeade geht es langsam in die Endphase der Blüte. Die ersten Blätter beginnen bereits, herbstliche Farben zu entwickeln 🍂, während die Buds weiterhin ordentlich Harz produzieren und sehr klebrig sind 🌸. Insgesamt bin ich mit der Entwicklung der Blüten weiterhin zufrieden, allerdings gibt es aktuell einen Punkt, der mich etwas nervt: Die Buds bilden zunehmend Foxtails aus. Ich vermute, dass die dafür verantwortlichen hohen Temperaturen zumindest teilweise eine Rolle spielen 🌡️. Besonders der Hydrone 5 von AC Infinity entwickelt im Betrieb deutlich Wärme. Der VPD wird zwar durch den KI-Controller und den Hydrone 5 insgesamt sehr gut geregelt, aber genau hier liegt meiner Meinung nach eine Schwäche des Systems. Bei der Produkteinführung wurde aus meiner Sicht nicht ausreichend kommuniziert, wie viel zusätzliche Wärme der Entfeuchter unter bestimmten Bedingungen in das Zelt einträgt. AC Infinity hat die Produktbeschreibung mittlerweile entsprechend angepasst, als ich das Gerät gekauft habe, war das allerdings noch nicht so kommuniziert. Das ärgert mich ehrlich gesagt etwas. Wenn die Außenluft eine hohe relative Luftfeuchtigkeit mitbringt, muss der Hydrone 5 entsprechend viel arbeiten. Trotz der Regelung über den Ablüfter können dann im Zelt durchaus Temperaturen von etwa 29 °C entstehen, weil die vom Entfeuchter erzeugte Wärme die Kühlung über die Abluft teilweise wieder zunichtemacht. Als alleinige Entfeuchtungslösung sehe ich den Hydrone 5 deshalb inzwischen eher als Winterlösung. Wenn die Außentemperaturen niedrig sind, sind hohe Temperaturen und hohe RLF normalerweise ohnehin weniger problematisch. Schimmel muss ich mir unter den aktuellen Bedingungen zwar keine großen Sorgen machen, aber Foxtailing in der Endblüte möchte ich natürlich trotzdem möglichst vermeiden 😅. Deshalb werde ich die Lichtintensität in den nächsten Tagen von 900 auf etwa 800 PPFD reduzieren und beobachten, wie sich die Buds entwickeln 💡. Vielleicht lässt sich damit etwas Druck aus dem System nehmen. Beim Aroma bin ich inzwischen ebenfalls etwas enttäuscht. Ein echtes Kirscharoma hat sich leider weiterhin nicht entwickelt 🍒. Die Buds sind zwar extrem klebrig, aber verglichen mit meiner Mentha de Croco haut mich das Aroma bisher nicht wirklich um. Aktuell wirkt das Terpenprofil insgesamt etwas schwach. Ob das tatsächlich genetisch bedingt ist oder die hohen Temperaturen einen Teil des Aromas beeinträchtigen, möchte ich noch nicht abschließend beurteilen. Ich warte deshalb definitiv bis zum Ende der Blüte und nach der Trocknung und Reifung mit meinem endgültigen Fazit 🧐. Vielleicht passiert in den letzten Wochen noch einiges – gerade beim Aroma kann sich bis zum Schluss noch etwas verändern. 📊 Aktuelle Parameter: 💡 Licht: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 → künftig ca. 800 PPFD 🌡️ Temperatur: 25 °C zeitweise bis ca. 29 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit: 54% durch Hydrone 5 geregelt 📈 VPD: 1,4 kPa durch KI-Controller/Hydrone 5 stabil geregelt 🌿 CO₂: Ø 700 ppm 💦 Wasserverbrauch: ca. 1,92 l/Tag Cherry Limeade – Weekly Update 🌱 The Cherry Limeade is slowly entering the final stage of flowering. The first leaves are already starting to show some autumn-like colors 🍂, while the buds continue to produce plenty of resin and are extremely sticky 🌸. Overall, I’m still happy with the development of the flowers, but there is one thing that is starting to annoy me a little: the buds are increasingly developing foxtails. I suspect that the high temperatures are at least partly responsible for this 🌡️. The Hydrone 5 from AC Infinity generates a noticeable amount of heat while running. The VPD itself is actually being controlled very well by the AI controller and the Hydrone 5, but this is also where I see a weakness in the system. When the product was originally launched, I don’t think AC Infinity communicated clearly enough how much additional heat the dehumidifier can add to the tent under certain conditions. AC Infinity has since updated the product description accordingly, but this was not communicated that way when I purchased the unit. Honestly, that does annoy me a little. When the outdoor air has a high relative humidity, the Hydrone 5 has to work harder. Even with the exhaust fan being controlled accordingly, I can still see temperatures of around 29 °C inside the tent because the heat generated by the dehumidifier partly offsets the cooling effect of the exhaust 🌡️. For this reason, I now see the Hydrone 5 as more of a winter solution when used as the sole dehumidification method. During winter, lower ambient temperatures make the additional heat much less of an issue. I’m not particularly worried about mold under the current conditions, but foxtailing during late flower is obviously not something I want to encourage 😅. So over the next few days I’ll reduce the light intensity from 900 to around 800 PPFD and see how the buds respond 💡. Hopefully this will take some stress out of the system. I’m also a little disappointed with the aroma at this point. Unfortunately, no real cherry aroma has developed so far 🍒. The buds are extremely sticky, but compared with my Mentha de Croco, the aroma isn’t really blowing me away. Overall, the terpene profile currently seems a little weak. Whether this is mainly genetic or whether the high temperatures are suppressing some of the aroma is something I don’t want to judge conclusively yet. I’ll definitely wait until the end of flowering, and preferably until after drying and curing, before making my final assessment 🧐. There is still some time left, and especially with the aroma, things can still change during the final weeks. 📊 Current parameters: 💡 Light: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 → reducing to approx. 800 PPFD 🌡️ Temperature: 25 °C occasionally up to approx. 29 °C 💧 Humidity: 54% controlled by Hydrone 5 📈 VPD: 1,4 kPa well controlled by the AI controller/Hydrone 5 🌿 CO₂: Avg. 700 ppm 💦 Water consumption: approx. 1.92 L/day

Showing pistils like crazy only 7 days in. Will be switching her into the main flower tent and release her from all LST tie downs. I will defoliate if there becomes too much fan leaves covering lower potential.

Selected 2 very beautiful males and harvested the leaves from the other males to make bhang chai. This is their natural form. No pinching, no training.
