Very saddened by the turn of events, 3 herms, 2 different grow environments, but each tent had another strain growing along with it. No seeds or problems with the Cookies strain… I had no power outages, no light leaks, no schedule changes, and performed relatively little defoliation during flower. To me, this cannot be attributed to stress, as they showed no sign of stress or deficiency’s throughout the grow. Long story short, booooooo.

11/4 Week 6 Light training to get the buds in light and keep her dry. Watered 11/3 one gal @6.5PH - Fish Sh!t 5ml - Karo syrup 5ml Just keeping an eye on her 11/5 Gorgeous smell coming off her purple buds, reminds me of a taffy shop. Drooling over her Growing well got her into the canopy better. 11/7 Update and bragging! Watering/feeding day today, she loved it! She is turning so pretty! The deep purple looks like fairies stole in the night and are using the little brushes to color her leaves. He hairs stand tall! First strain I have seen with them this tall. The smell is sweet with a warmed fruit smell...for those that bake, closest I can come. Still have some questions as if this is a true Runtz. From her coloring and bud development and her leaf shaping she is a good match. Have added some close ups of my lady for anyone out there wanting to take a stab at figuring her out, any info would be welcome. 1 gal 6.5 PH - CalMag 5ml - Fish Sh!t 5ml - Bio_Bloom 5ml

Not the greatest but that’s down to the grower not the products. Buds are nice and solid but could’ve probably used an extra week or two. Nevertheless I’m still enjoying my very own organic weed. I’ll definitely grow this again and when I do I may LST one and see how she does compared with one left to grow in a natural central column. Happy growing peeps 🐞🤙🌱

Hello growers, as I mentioned last week, La Bomba was left alone in the coop and she’s doing amazing. I’m just watering now and waiting for the right moment to harvest. The aroma is incredible, somewhere between a sweet profile and that loud gassy fuel, a truly unique combination. I gently spread her branches with a few strings so the light can reach the lower buds. The buds are hard and the whole plant looks beautiful. Peace and happy growing ✌️

Week 5 Another week full of lots of new growth. I am up to four tops now so it’s just a matter of waiting a little longer and I will be up to the magic number 8. I really like the open structure of this plant. She seems perky and very healthy up to now. Cooler internals: 6.2 pH 0.4 EC 65 F solution temp. Onward 😎🍻

Hello everyone! Congratulations to our beautiful community, Wishing you a very Merry Christmas!!! Good luck in the coming 2021! This week is the last stage of the VEG. After December 31st, I will change the growth to light 12/12. I still use the Easy Combo and boost I got from RQS team. The plants looks great and healthy. I added extra fertilizer from GNE : Flora Micro 2ml for each L of water. The PH level I try to keep is between 6.4-6.0- lower, then higher, then lower again. I bend down the branches every night. every third day I do defoliation. A pleasant, noticeable smell is already felt. I hope that I achieve the harvest after 2 month and wish everyone the best of luck

I left on vacation for 2 weeks and had someone top up my water. When I returned i noticed temperature was not dropping inside the tent properly due to a plugged carbon filter. Removed for now to get temperature in check. Replacement on its way.

As the plant enters the fifth week of flowering, the first trichomes have begun to form. The buds have started to thicken considerably during this week. They are becoming denser and more robust, which indicates that the plant is channeling its energy into producing larger, more resinous flowers. Throughout the growth process, the cannabis plant has shown no signs of health issues. It has remained vigorous and resilient, with no observable deficiencies or diseases. To ensure optimal light penetration and airflow, the plant was lightly defoliated this week. The cannabis plant is progressing well in its fifth week of flowering. The formation of trichomes, the thickening of buds, and the plant's overall health are all promising indicators of a successful flowering phase.

12.5.25: I watered with some more Trace again. She's feeding well and needs watering more often again. I upped the dose of Trace as I've noticed that there are some purple hues coming back on the stems. 13.5.25: I have removed all fabric ties on the plant. I think we have stopped stretching, so the sooner, the better. I keep getting my watering can caught in them all, and it was only a matter of time before I ended up snapping more branches off 😅 The fewer things in my way, the better 🤫 15.5.25: I watered today as the pot had dried out almost. The plant was watered with dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with the following nutrients per 6.5 litres; ♡ 7ml Trace by Ecothrive ♡ 1/2 Tsp Sea K(elp) by Greenleaf nutrients The plants received the amounts below. HULKBERRY: 1l FASTBUDS: 2l NORTHERN LIGHTS: 3.5l I am not giving any further nitrogen at this stage. They had a couple of doses in the past week or so. I'm sure they don't need any more. So, I'm just using the kelp as it's packed full of goodness and high in potassium. I also suspect an excess of phosphorus. So I'm also leaving that out for the time being. There are still some red stems on the plants. added the Ecothrive trace for the last few waterings. I'm hoping it will resolve without any further intervention. 16.5.25: I watered FastBuds Mystery seed #1 with 2trs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with: ♡ 1/2 Tsp Sea K(elp) by Greenleaf nutrients ♡ 7ml Trace by Ecothrive Measurements per 6.5ltrs. PPM: 670 PH: 6.4 17.5.25: I watered again today with 2ltrs of the above PH'D to 6.2. Parameters remaining the same. The plant is increasingly thirsty, so the waterings have again needed to be increased. As we're reaching deep into flowering, this is par for the course. I'm mostly using coco, perlite worm cats. Etc. So it's very easy for my pots to dry out. I need to keep in top of it. As the pots dry out, the microbes are lost, and so keeping everything moist and healthy is imperative. That's why I add Ecothrive Biosys regularly to ensure I keep up with the microbial life in the soil biology. To avoid PH lockout. 18.5.25: I watered again, with the same parameters as yesterday. Instead of Sea K, I used Ecothrive Biosys: 1/2 Tsp/6.5l PPM: 550 PH: 6.4 Thanks for checking out my diary and hanging out 💚✌️ 🍃 😊 🌱

Clones looking surprisingly good. The mother plant they spawned from was destroyed in veg due to gnat infestation from poor conditions on my part, however clones were taken while she was healthy and thriving. Sorry for the pic quality, the tent is getting crowded during the stretch and it's hard to get single shots of 1 plant because of the trellis. Lesson learned for me personally, stick with 1-2 different strains per tent up to a 4x4.

pics from 20th and 22nd October 26th for lemon It's the second year ever for me, and I talked to some people because I still get 8g per plant, and it's because of the mainlining and toppings I do at wrong times, and also because an outdoor plant doesn't always get the perfect sunlight and energy to repair itself enough. so the stress might be it. next year I'll try bending the main stem and never doing topping

Hey hey my fellow growers, I hope everyone had an excellent week! It is great to be back here at the beginning of week six, let’s get into it! Last week I had misspoke- I said I was going to train 5 of the 6 plants I have going from fastbuds, this was false…. What I meant is all 6… Yes at the time I had only INTENDED on messing with 5 but the last one, the way it was structured with the self top, it was practically BEGGING me to get in there and play with it- and I ask you this- who would I be to deny that little strawberry pie the simple pleasure of a little training? So train I did… Nothing crazy, but actually for all six plants (despite my best efforts, best being debatable) to not go overboard- I have been going in a doing a little bit of training and taking a leaf off here and there if it’s blocking any potential bud sites. I am trying to be really careful and not do too much at once and upset any of them- but at the same time, after stunting them a bit with the taproot incident (which I will keep referring to until I learn from that mistake) I want to do what I can to maximize yield after tripping up a bit in the beginning. We will see how it goes, but for now, everything seems to be doing well and responding well to the bit of training I have been doing. Right now I am seeing a range of sizes among the bunch- the forbidden runtz are both shorter and squatier coming in at about 5.5 inches in height each and I notice everything is spaced a bit tighter on these so I have had some difficulty spreading them out but not to any problematic extent, just in comparison with the rest- Next we have the strawberry pie- the smaller one coming in at 5.5inches, is the one that I was speaking about that had topped itself. It seems to be doing well and handling the training just fine. However the other one, that one is much bigger and is about 8.5 inches tall. It wasn’t until I busted out the ruler that I saw that this was the second biggest plant of the fast buds. That leaves the largest which of course was the gorilla cookies! The smaller of the two is coming in at 8 inches and the larger one coming in at 9.5! They are both tied down and doing great, showing growth each day after being trained and having select leaves removed. We are getting closer and closer to flower I hope to have a bit more time with them but that is totally in their hands, so we will see what happens- the game plan now for me at this point is to keep doing what I’ve been doing- trying to balance on a delicate line. As far as other news… I am doing dishes the other day- I have my phone propped up with YouTube on and dude grows playing (my preferred way to do dishes) I hear the dude mention a giveaway they are doing that I had submitted an entry for recently so my ears had perked up…👀 I saw they had the contest page pulled up and on display and I thought to myself, wouldn’t it be cool if I got to see my picture right now, sure enough- I hear them start talking about my pictures! I in no way won (at this point, my fingers are crossed though haha) and I realize that this is debatably anticlimactic however, I listen to these guys everyday at work so I was stoked! I still am! There are lots of good giveaways going on right now, all the amazing contests going on on this site, Instagram wherever! You have to be in it to win it folks and often it doesn’t take much to enter- I wish you all luck if you participate in any holiday contests and I hope you all have a fantastic holiday week and I will catch you all here at the same time in the same place hopefully with some new goodies and we can continue this fastbuds journey! Growers love and happy holidays everybody!!! 💚🤙🌱

Meine vier Babys entwickeln sich weiter gut sie werden von tag zu tag Dicker und schöner :) Den Geruch empfinde ich als ziemlich Süßlich und wirklich sehr Lecker :) Mitte der Woche habe ich nochmal Etwas Plagron Lightmix auf die Töpfe verteilt da durch die Airpods die Wurzeln schon dabei waren aus dem Töpf zu sprießen. entlaubt wird immernoch in dem die Sonnensegel Gekappt werden die zuviel Licht inanspruch nehmen
