Buds stacking up! I love these plants!!!! So far this is the closest to a perfect grow I've gotten! ________________________________________________ I tried to stretch out watering and I think the plants suffered a bit for it. But lesson learned and not to much stress. I've decided I have 2 different phenoms, they have quite different bud structure and the tight small buds seem alot less purple. Not disappointed, just interesting to see their difference. By the small bud I wonder if it has more ruderalis in it or something. ________________________________________________ Gonna do Dry Kool bloom then ripen then done? Hopefully!

******* Week 7 Flower - October 31 to Nov 6, 2020, Days 43 to 49 ********* This was flush week.......hurry the hell up and flush week!!!!!๐Ÿ˜ƒ This strain is an 8 week strain!! She was close to ready at the end of the week, Day 49. Start your flush week 6......I waited for week 7 thinking she would go 9 weeks. Gave them two doses fo Flawless Finish and 10 gallons of water each. Cant do much more than that๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ‘ She is a sticky girl........move any leaves around and you find out just how much๐Ÿ˜ƒ These are some nice Freakin looking buds!!!!!! Beautiful colours and so frosty all the way down the fan leaves........so pissed off at myself because I missed her flush timming.....there are some beautiful purples and yellows in this strain that I missed!โ˜น๏ธ Little more detail....... Nov 1/20, Day 44 - Heavy flush day today. - 32L of tap water with 180oom and 5.7pH going into the girls. - runoff numbers for the girls were both pretty close to the same at 185ppm and 6.3pH. - last 3.5L of flush contained Flawless Finish @ 2ml/L. - Decided I do need to use a flushing agent with these girls......they are so close to done now!!!!! Nov 3/20, Day 46 - Another flushing agent watering today. - each girl given roughly 5L mixture of half tap water and half RO water with Flawless Finish at 4ml/L - More than I would normally do but feeling a little desperate at this point!!! - I am almost feeling like C472 is close to pulling now........damn.....I need a couple of more days yet so just going to let more go amber and hopefully she will continue to take the water and flush herself. Nov 6/20, Day 49 - 1L of plain water for each girl. 25ppm and 6.2pH. - we are at the finish line.....just keeping the pot moist right now. - they are ready for darkness anytime now........they are......I am not๐Ÿ˜‚ Looking good Apolo.......Trichomes are lots and smells are plentiful๐Ÿ‘ They finishing too damn fast though๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€ Good problems I guess, wish I cut some clones to run her one more time and stop feed at week 5 flower๐Ÿ˜ž

I never intended for a huge plant. She grew in very close quarters with 2 other plants. I did accidentally split her in vegging down the middle. She has grown well for what I was wanting out of her. Nice heavy buds formed that have a great smell of sweet, and fruity. Sending her off to dry and will update when I get her processed out for smoke report. Thank you Seedsman, and Pyramid Seeds. ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿค›๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐Ÿ‘‡likes๐Ÿ‘‡, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐Ÿ‘‡. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿป Happy Growing ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

First week of flower for this healthy and happy FFT. Really looking forward to Fastbuds releasing the names of these strains, because they all grow very differently. I'm guessing at #8 being cheese, but it will be a complete surprise on all the others. This girl is sitting pretty and taking up her designated space perfectly. A heavy defoliation on F1 opened up some tops to the light. There has been a massive growback in just 3.5 days of flower, as well as a massive stretch. I have all the headroom in the world, so I will let these maximize. All healthy, no spots or bugs, so these are just booming. They will get a final heavy defoliation on F21, and then maintenance plucking to maximize cola exposure.

3/3 Female! These girls are looking beautiful right now! They are all very small and compact but each looks pretty dense. I expect some significant stretch in the next week or two. The main stems for all are thick and look very healthy, roots all look fantastic, I might have missed when I topped one of them. (as a reminder this is my first time topping) The plant which forked itself looks pretty nice too, and just started to show female. I still think that plant is the most interesting since it grew that way on it's own. I don't want to get ahead of myself, but I've fed these girls more than any other grow I've done (which to be fair is not many) but I think they might come out as my best harvest yet. I have a really good feeling about these. Harvest should be right around X-Mas too! This week is WEEDSGIVING! I think I'll try to make a mid week update to share some of the fun.

Nutrients remain the same and will so now until the ripening stage. I donโ€™t really know exactly when she will be ready, I assume she has another 5 weeks in her or so. Only the trichomes will tell ๐Ÿ˜Š Buds are starting to bulk nicely now and from the photo lapse itโ€™s evident that some of the colas are starting to lean. Girl at the front is still rather ugly and the bud formation on her is not uniform like the rest. Just goes to show how different each seed can be even when growing the same pheno in the same conditions. I think theyโ€™re due a complete water change out tomorrow for the first time since the flowers started to form around F14. The PH is starting to swing over the course of 1-2 days which is usually the signal I pay attention to and force myself to stop being lazy ๐Ÿ˜Š

Day 172 21/10/24 Monday I had 1.5 Litres of feed left, and she was top dry this morning so she finished that off today. Picture update ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’š I'll get one later with lights off ๐Ÿ™Œ Day 174 23/10/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today. Finally update pictures and videos ๐Ÿ“ธ ๐Ÿ’š She is developing awsome colours, and buds are now starting to stack weight ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ™Œ Day 177 26/10/24 Saturday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today, noticed a few tips burning. She is stacking !! This week she has developed a really floral aroma is sweet and tantalising like a perfume almost. She is glistening with trichomes, and buds are taking the dark ๐ŸŒ‘ colour with purple/pink calyx tips. Super duper sticky!!

Here we are at day 56 and so far so good as you guys can tell from the picture she seems to have had too much nitrogen. So the last feeding was strictly green sensation.. The feeding prior I also cut back on nitrogen so hopefully she lightens up some in the coming days.. thank you to Kannabia Seeds for the opportunity to grow this girl.. As you could see, no training at all, so I don't expect much more than maybe 1.5oz or 2 tops .. i will say she's looking good in some of the fan leaves are already producing trichomes.. This girl is a light feeder, so to everyone growing it.Keep that in mind.. I hope everybody is doing well.God bless and happy growing โœŒ๏ธ

Recovery at its finest, that's what you will see on week 4 around here! Guess who's loving the CO2 with high temperature? Thats right, all plants are! The comparison of last week with this week have such a difference, on day 24 I introduced a DIY CO2 bottle, the recipe consist in: -CO2- 2 cups of sugar 1 tablespoon of yeast 1 tablespoon of baking soda 1 later of warm water Mix all ingredients on a bottle, make a nail hole on the cap shake a little (when shaking put your finger on the nail hole, you should hear a hissssss when you release the hole) use it when lights are on, increase temperature to 30-35C, watch for high levels of humidity, and voila! Any other details you want to know ask way :) I haven't started any LST yet, I am waiting for a bit more growth to start bending, I have to make sure all 5 plants will have enough space inside this 2x4 tent. All suggestions are welcomed :) Thats is for now, Stay Lit folks!

Day 33 sheโ€™s beautiful and flowering and doing all she can do. She is in recycle soil for the first time ever. I didnโ€™t wanna waste a ton of money on soil for my last grow before break. But sheโ€™s so impressive and persistent. Happy ladies are my favorite. Big and beautiful.
