Today is the 1st day of 2nd week of flowering. I've put the net on them on 20.01. Started the autopots on 18th. They are well rooted. The aptus startbooster is really potent, roots are poking out of the medium with beautiful micro hair. Never had it before. The stems are crazy thick, also I think thanks to regulator. On 22.01 Ive started the air pump supplying airdomes. I have the lowest EC ever on aptus. Right now around 1.0. But still get a tiny little bit of tip burn one a few plants. Let's see how it goes.

Tag 22: 🌱: LST wurde etwas nachjustiert, um die Verschattung zu minimieren. Leider habe ich dabei eines der größeren Fächerblätter eines der Haupttriebe beschädigt (Stiel gebrochen) und musste dieses nun doch entfernen. 💧: Die Erde war trocken, daher wurde gegossen. Den Angaben meines Wasserversorgers und meinen Berechnungen zur Folge, habe ich das CalMag weggelassen und nur 0,25g/l Bittersalz hinzugefügt. Auch das Bio Grow wurde wieder auf die ursprünglichen 50% des Düngeplans reduziert. Insgesamt gab es ca. 2,5l bis zu einem ersten kleinen Drain. 💡: Die Beleuchtung wurde hochgeregelt, auf einen DLI von ca. 40 bei ca. 40cm Abstand zur Pflanze. Update: Abstand auf 35cm und Leistung etwas verringert (weiterhin DLI ~40), da sonst Temperatur zu hoch steigt. Tag 24: 🌱: Heute wurde erneut die Schere angesetzt (leider etwas verspätet, aber ging nicht anders). Entfernt wurden die unteren und somit innersten und äußersten neuen Triebe an den 4 größeren "Haupttrieben" und deren Fächerblätter. Um den Schock nicht zu groß zu machen, dürfen die nach innen wachsenden Fächerblätter noch 2-3 Tage dran bleiben. Zusätzlich wurde das LST noch etwas angepasst. 💧: Die Erde ist noch nass. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 26: 🌱: Heute wurde erneut die Schere angesetzt und die nach innen wachsenden Fächerblätter entfernt. Zusätzlich wurde das LST noch etwas angepasst. 💧: Die Erde ist noch nass. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 27: 🌱: Es ist der Beginn von Tag 27. Es wurden nur kleinere LST Anpassungen vorgenommen und das Blattwerk etwas sortiert um die Ausleuchtung zu verbessern. Die kleine Lady denkt anscheinend bereits daran in die Blütephase zu wechseln, zumindest zeigen sich die ersten zarten Pistillen. 💧: Die Erde ist noch immer feucht. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 28: 🌱: Das LST wurde für ein einheitlich hohes Blätterdach erneut leicht angepasst. Ich überlege in den kommenden Tagen auch noch einige der unteren Fächerblätter, die mittlerweile ziemlich im Schatten liegen, zu entfernen. Zunächst jedoch schaue ich, was der Stretch die nächsten Tage so bringt. So langsam macht sich auch ein leichter Duft bemerkbar. 💧: Die Erde war trocken, daher wurde gegossen. Heute gab es insgesamt 3 Liter der gleichen Wachstumsmischung wie letzte Woche. Das Bittersalz scheint auf jeden Fall zu helfen. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert.

Love these two strains. This is my first outdoor grow with fast buds. They both smell great. I need to get some Dr Zymes soon to help with little pests other than that it's been smooth growing

Very productive strain with big frosty buds. Had a strong smell in and around the tend so make sure you have a big filter system. The plants were healthy and strong. This wasn't my last time growing this beauty

Whats growing one everyone ? I just wanted to give you an update on my Tropicana Cookies Auto from Fast Buds. She's been growing like crazy and I'm so happy with how healthy and tall it's getting! One of the things that's really helped with the growth of my plants in the past is the autopots. They're connected now and my Girl seems to be adapting really well to the new setup. I'm so glad I decided to go with autopots - they're making my life so much easier! As far as nutrients go, I've stopped using the all-in-one liquid for now. The pellets in the soil are already loaded with nutrients, so I figured there was no need to keep adding more. I want to make sure that she is able to absorb all of the nutrients it needs, without overdoing it on the fertilizers. Overall, I'm just really pleased with how this grow is going. The Tropicana Cookies Auto is such a great strain and it seems to be thriving in my setup. I'm excited to see how it continues to grow over the coming weeks, and I'll definitely keep you posted on its progress! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - Fast Buds Tropicana Cookies Auto Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

https://lumatek-lighting.com/ <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 Tropicana Cookies Auto is the perfect variety for growers of all levels, especially beginners as this strain performs very well outdoors and indoors, and can produce up to 500gr/m2 in 56-63 days without needing extra maintenance. Reaching up to 110cm, this strain grows fairly tall with medium-sized branching, showing its mixed heritage. Definitely the right choice for those with a high tolerance looking to get their hands on the strongest autoflowers out there. Thanks to the 27% THC, you can expect an extremely powerful and long-lasting high that’ll boost your mood and give you that extra push you need to start your days on the right foot. This variety offers the whole range of citrusy and woody flavors with a strong candy-sweet background that will keep you coming back for more and more. Bud description Tropicana Cookies Auto produces gorgeous dark purple flowers, so expect really dark buds with gorgeous hues of pink, purple and blue, and thick dark-orange hairs that get completely covered in resin by harvest time, giving them an almost shiny-white appearance. This variety develops a typical Indica-like structure and very few sugar leaves that will make your trimming sessions a breeze. But make sure to store your trimmings as the gorgeous flowers reek of a mouth-watering blend of lemon peels, orange juice, and sandalwood that gives it almost a citrus candy-like flavor that makes for the most aromatic hash and extractions.Smoke report Thanks to the 27% THC, Tropicana Cookies Auto’s effect starts with an energizing head rush that gets your mind up and running while leaving you in a nice calm state. As the Indica-dominant side kicks in, the powerful cerebral effect gradually moves downwards and hits your whole body with a deep relaxation that leaves you with a joyful stoney sensation that alleviates chronic pain while leaving you in an overall happy and positive state of mind. It’s the perfect daytime and nighttime strain as it can boost your mood and enhance a night out with friends but can also quiet your mind as you get ready for a good night of sleep. No matter the scenario, expect a powerful high that lasts for hours on end.Plant appearance Tropicana Cookies Auto reaches up to 110cm and develops a tall main cola with shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. You can expect a stocky yet tall main cola with medium-sized side branches and thin fan leaves that fade into a yellowish hue with a beautiful dark purple tint. Thanks to the excellent selection, this variety develops a short internodal spacing that makes the medium-sized flowers look like they’re growing stacked on top of each other. It’s the ideal choice for growers who want to get big yields without having to deal with huge plants, as this monster yielder can produce up to 150g per plant while growing relatively short. Grow tips This variety grows super dense buds so make sure to space out the branches by tying them down, this way you improve airflow which helps prevent mold and other pests. Tropicana Cookies auto reek of a delicious sweet and sour smell so make sure to flush thoroughly to enhance the aromas even more. This terpene heavyweight finishes with lots of resinous sugar leaves that make for fantastic hash and extractions so remember to have your trim bucket ready!Flavor Tropicana Cookies Auto boasts remarkably sweet flavors that resemble a blend of lemon peels and fresh orange juice, with subtle floral undertones that make it the perfect choice for extractors looking for unique terpene profiles. Expect an overall citrusy zest that’ll coat your whole mouth and leave a delicious tropical candy-like flavor aftertaste. The sweet and sour flavors get balanced out with a herbal background that gets stronger as you exhale and gradually opens up, bringing out the whole range of woody, floral, and spicy flavors, making it the perfect choice for the most flavorful extracts.

So this round I just lollipopped and didn’t strip the top at all, with better veg next round it’ll work better but I’m having issues with some plants not quite trellised how I’d like. Everything smells great, BCS,BD and WM are getting fat and PKB is frosty and tight. Watering is more of a chore than I’d like I think I’m just going to use some 5s for the next round . Thanks for following along I hope your buds are fat and frosty.

Girls starting to grow really tall now, they have taken to the flowering stage really nicely! Started the Flores feed on Day 38. Starting high at 3.2 and working my way down after a couple of weeks. Smells are lovely coming from the tent! Leaves are looking very dark and healthy.

Got a new light this week, it's basically a HLG 260 R-Spec except locally manufactured using the same Samsung LEDs. Big Mumma got her 60x60cm tent today and will go in there under one Viparspectra 300W blurple (130w from the wall). I trimmed her, super cropped her main stem and added a scrog net in preparation of flowering her in the next couple of days. Because my other plants were getting up past 75cm after 7 days of flower (100cm is my absolute max) , I decided to supercrop the canopy back down to about 60-65cm - it was pretty scary and I definitely broke the outer stem on some of them. Also gave them a good trim. Fortunately most bounced back strong the next day which are the most up-to-date photos you see (17/4/20).

10/18, day 74 While only getting a tiny bit taller, the colas are bulking up, trichomes are developing, and the colors are amazing. She's so pretty! We're starting to take more stemmed leaves off in preparation for harvest, and they are ready to come off, with beautiful yellow fading. There are sooooo many reddish-orange hairs, and it seems most of the tops are being taken over by purples now. 10/21, day 77 Violet's leaves are turning brown and beginning to curl now. When looking at her trichomes, it seems there is not as much amber today as there was yesterday somehow. Every time we open the cabinet, it seems she has changed. 10/23 day 79 Violet has been exploding with trichomes the last couple of days, and I'm just like WOW!! Upon doing more research on trichomes and their development, I found an article that explains things so nicely (Link: https://www.greencultured.co/cannabis-trichomes-overview/ ) In this article, I learned about the three different types of trichomes: bulbous, capitate sessile, and capitate stalked. The stalked being the tall pretty ones we like to see, which also contain the most resin. At a certain point, the short sessiles develop into the stalked, increasing from 30% to 80-90%. This is kind of far down the article in the section titled "Latest Cannabis Trichome Research." It also explains that the stalked trichomes contain 16 cells while sessile trichomes only contain 8, so the stalked trichome explosion Violet has been having is doubling her medicinal value. I believe that her increasingly strong smell is a sign that this is good information, so I encourage you to check it out. I do not know them, nor have any arrangements with them, I really did just find the article that helpful. Oh, Violet, our time together is going to be over soon!!
