Week 5 — Vegetation Phase 🌿 Week 5 has been an absolutely fantastic stage of growth! The plants are showing tremendous vigor and energy — every stem is thick and strong, and the lateral branches are developing beautifully. The canopy is now well-balanced and starting to take a very uniform shape, which is exactly what you want before the transition. 💪🌱 For this week, I adjusted the feeding program to really support strong and healthy development: • Root Simulator: 2.5 ml/L • Generator: 0.15 ml/L • Terra: 2.0 ml/L • Cal-Mag: 1 ml/L The plants are responding exceptionally well to this regimen. Leaf color is a perfect, vibrant green — not too dark, not too light — showing that the nutrient balance is spot-on. Each apex is soaking up energy, and the growth is both dense and vigorous. The structure is becoming more solid, which will help ensure a smooth transition to the next phase. 🌱 Watering is perfectly dialed in now. The substrate dries out evenly between sessions, eliminating any risk of overwatering. Leaves are upright and firm, a clear sign that the plants are thriving and the environment is stable. ✔️ Visually, the garden is looking amazing. The canopy is nicely spread, allowing excellent airflow between branches. The lower growth is filling in gradually, and the top growth is ready to continue its upward expansion. Training efforts are really paying off — the plants are maintaining a strong, even structure with a lot of energy in every node. Overall, Week 5 feels like a pivotal moment. The plants are healthy, vigorous, and responding perfectly to both nutrition and care. The combination of strong stems, dense foliage, and well-spaced branches sets the stage for a successful transition to flowering. The visual appeal alone is exciting — you can really see the potential for the next stages. 🔥 Extremely happy with how things are progressing. If they continue at this pace, the next phase is going to be nothing short of spectacular! 🌿✨

SOOOOO close now and the smells are sweet pungent very dank blueberry top with a garlic finish. The Resin on this thing cannot be captured on photo. It's unreal. Amber is starting so it wont be long now.

Week 8 of flowering: Managed with only water this week. It's noticeable that this is a slightly slower strain: it's maturing slowly, with compact buds turning golden hues. The aroma is old-school, earthy-sweet, very promising.

I need to transplant her soon but right now I have a tent full of other things as well and don’t really have enough space yet. But as of now she’s getting watered once a day and isn’t doing fine with that the moment that pot really starts to dry out fast then I know the roots are expanding and then I’ll have to start watering twice a day until I’m able to transplant her.

Another not much to say week I'm afraid. She still eats she grows. Flower sites are out and the flowering begins. Coco is magic and I'm converted. I have them on an auto feed that gives water every 3 hrs 200ml. Then I manually feed them with nutes every other day. 3 clones of the cough are looking good. May do another diary for those or I might gift them to some friends. Thanks for stopping by. I hope all your grows are successful 👍 Stay safe from the Vid 19.😷😷 Be happy❤️🌿🌱

2/5 Week 6 Did some defoliation to keep things clean She just doing so well sex is showing Leave nuets as is She has been chosen to go into the big tent first and flipped three days before the rest of her cousins. Be a few days 2/7 Into Flowering tent flipped to 12-12 nuets adjusted slightly 2/9 New pics

- Ich hab die erste Woche des Biobizz Allmix Düngeschemas gestartet und gebe wie immer erstmal vorsichtige 100%, da meine Erde an sich durch den Kompost recht potent sein sollte. - Außerdem hab ich mit meinem Calmag-Rechner mein Leitungswasser angepasst. Die Werte könnt ihr auf den Bildern sehen. - Den PH-Wert passe ich ebenfalls auf 6,5 an.# - Die Lampe bringt zur Zeit etwa einen PPFD-Wert von 350 - 360 µmol/s/m² bei 18 Stunden Beleuchtungszeit (DLI von 22 - 23 mol/d/m²). Sie wird aber nur eingesetzt bis es warm genug draußen bleibt. Tagsüber stehen sie jetzt schon draußen, sofern es nicht regnet oder stürmt. Die Tropicana Cookies macht sich hervorragend und sie ist sehr uniform mit den anderen Fastbuds Strains bis jetzt. Sieht gut aus finde ich 💪😁👍 YT: www.youtube.com/@High-And-Hydro

This week went very well! One will be getting cut an hung to dry while the rest finish up with one more week of flush ! These ladies are smelling so lovely I hope you all enjoy! Stay tuned for next week! Cheers 😤💨💨💨💨💨

Grovebag time 💪

She's getting close to the end now! Looking lovely!!

🌱 Erntezeit! Nach einer intensiven und spannenden Blütephase ist es endlich so weit – die Mädels wurden geerntet! Zum Schluss gab es nochmal eine 48-stündige Dunkelphase sowie eine gezielte Entlaubung, um die letzten Reserven aus der Pflanze zu mobilisieren und die Reife zu fördern. Die Trichome zeigten sich größtenteils milchig mit ganz vereinzelten bernsteinfarbenen Köpfen – genau das Ziel, das ich mir gesetzt hatte. Die Pflanzen haben in den letzten Wochen nochmal ordentlich zugelegt, einige mussten sogar gestützt werden, weil das Bud-Gewicht sie beinahe zum Umkippen gebracht hätte. ⚠️Das Video zeigt die Pflanzen noch vor der finalen Entlaubung - aktuelle Bilder vom Ernteprozess und den Buds folgen in Kürze! Jetzt geht’s ans Trocknen, und ich bin gespannt, wie viel am Ende wirklich rauskommt. Optisch und geruchlich bin ich mehr als zufrieden – kompakte Buds, schöner Frost, intensives Terpenprofil. Was meint ihr, wie viel kommt am Ende trocken raus? Und seht ihr eventuell noch Potenzial zur Verbesserung für den nächsten Run?

420 Fastbuds Week 6 Gorilla Punch Auto What up what up everyone. Week 6 update on these two has been interesting non the less. The bigger of the two still showing signs of some calmag deficiency from what it appears. I've added one teaspoon/gal of General Hydroponics 3 part flora series to the feeding to give them an added boost as well as the one/gal teaspoon of GH Calimagic. All in all they seem to be flowering OK. The Temps have dropped the last week making a constant 55'f-60'f in the day and down to the 30's at night so keeping the tents warm enough will have to be part of the battle from here on out. Happy Growing

Heating Mat to keep temp in 80’s Day15)( Week 3 Day1) No water,good Added Mushie Man Day 16) idk if I’m right but growth seems a lil slow hopefully nothings wrong Day 18) Added c02 yesterday night , gonna put the lights at 50 watts Day19) Feeding stronger, keep bringing light up more as the plant grows so it’s 30 inches above the plant Day20) GROWTH IS AMAZING , idk if it’s the co2 or it’s just getting older, prolly both either way it’s great news, moving light up more, I’ll start LST on Sunday which is day 22, cleaning fan cause of humidifier ( tap water), keep humidity in high 50s and temp above 80 , for humidity reasons I only turn on in-line fan for a couple hours some afternoons Day 21) Fed Calmag, grow and micro to tap water(PH 6.2), added more coco to the top,will LST tmrw

Day 22 Took off lower three nodes of side branches on each main branch. Removed 4 leaves

DAY 65 Watered with a bit of Bloom as I see too much N in the plant locking out P slowly.. 💧 DAY 67 Watered with just Bloom. 💧 Caramelo is such a treat! 💚 I'm a bit gutted that 2 of the 3 seeds didn't sprout. I would have grown it again. The smell is fantastic!! Sweet walnuts. Never had that before.. 😃 LED running at 80%. Have a great week!! 😘 __________________________________________________ SET UP 240W Fullspectrum LED 660nm 730nm 3500K dimmable custom exhaust fan 270/320 m³/h 3x Garden High Pro fans 5W tap water EC 0,25 - adding Calmag to EC 0,4-0,6 - adding pH minus Bloom (AHH) to pH 6,5 Plantaflor organic tomato soil 🍅

Beginning of week.. These girls are not looking too bad.. I believe the leaves are not spreading much of those issues anymore.. The medium is still spittin out acidic runoff tho.. The only thing I can think of is the roots from previous runs weren't completely removed.. The decomposing roots inside the medium may make the medium acidic af... But I still don't know 100%.. I read that in 1 forum but again.. Idk 100%.. *sigh.. I really hope I can complete this run with no major issues or hurting yields too much. Keeping my fingers crossed that this will somehow just fix itself lol.. Ugh.. But I am not giving up! I WILL fill this 2x4 tent with MASSIVE ETHOS COLAS! Gonna be topping soon.. As soon as the main stem is long enough to cut and still be able to leave some stem so that the top 2 branches don't spit. These 2 plants have very different branch sizes.. I believe its because of the light not being able to penetrate as much of the branches on the ETHOS Cookies due to the fan leaves being on such short stems. The Mandarin Cookies may take over more than half of the tent.. But that shouldn't be a major issue.. As long as both are getting great light penetration, I'll be happy.. Still not sure if I am gonna LST and ScrOG or just LST.. I really wanna ScrOG and try ir out. I just hope I do it right.. I think I may have it figured out.. Need a little more research! But the girls are doing good.. Temps are getting kinda high here and there.. But they don't seem to mind too much. I will be upping the FloraGro and keeping the Hydroguard in the mix, also.. If it can help with root issues in hydro, maybe it can help my issue too... It says it can turn decaying matter into food for the plants.. So I guess we shall see!... Later that night... So I fed late today and checked the runoff, as I always do.. It had been 3 days since I last watered/fed (flushed actually.. Then added 1L of nutes so she wouldn't be hungry)... *going in (each): - 3L @ 1000 PPM 6.4 pH *runoff: - Mandarin Cookies: 150 PPM 6.0 pH - ETHOS Cookies: 200 PPM 6.0 pH ... So the pH is possibly starting to balance back out! The runoff still did not contain this feeding or the last feeding when it comes to TDS in the runoff.. Unless these girls are drinking/eating it up like that! The roots at the drain holes are looking massive and healthy as can be! I can't imagine they are doing bad in there.. And they are growing quite well.. But I can't wait to get these girls going!!!.. Oh yeah.. I went ahead and topped them both.. Both have 6 nodes.. That is all.. Going to let these girls just start branching out and going to try and not mess with them much (if anything just tie some bramches down to help them all kinda even out.. A.k.a... LST lol) till it is time to lollipop and get ready for flower! Just feeding/watering and tucking leaves when I can so the new colas can start doing their magic! So excited!!! Next day... I found some Coca-Cola crates.. I'm gonna use them to raise the pot and saucers off the ground.. The saucer has been holding moisture underneath and creating a bit of a mildew-ey smell.. So now, I make sure I rinse the entire saucer.. Top and bottom.. With all the airflow in the tent, theybwill dry in 60 seconds no problem!.. But now the tops are 12 inches from the light.. The power is still at 25%.. And now the girls are getting around 300 - 350 μmols/m2/s or whatever it is lol.. Mid week.. Went ahead and fed her again today. I added the Kushie Kush (bloom booster) because it contains the most Potassium.. That is what most of these marks on the leaves are from, I believe.. The runoff pH came out at 5.8 and 5.7 today.. *sigh... I really need this to clear up.. Hmm.. Maybe FloraKleen??? I guess that's all I have left to try.. Flushing multiple gallons every day for 3 or 4 days wasn't enough.. It helped.. But damn, I think I need to pull out ths big guns to clear this up.. Gonna see what happens next watering (2 or 3 days) and see what the runoff is then.. May set it to go in at 6.5 or something.. Idk... Ugh.. I really wanna just try hydro lol.. I bet one plant in a 5 gallon bucket would do awesome in this tent with a ScrOG! Hmmmmm.. Lol... End of week.. Went ahead and lollipopped a little. Both plants.. Also tied some of the longer branches down some.. Once the higher up branches are a little longer, I can then get them all tied down and begin figuring out if I should ScroG.. All depends how this ETHOS Cookies does in the next week or so.. On to the next!...

Looking good a bit small but good;))))

This could be her last week. Flushing now.. She is on 12/12 because of her tent mates. Most trichomes clear but some are cloudy now. Some close up shots for you.
