10/3/2022 is officially 1 week from germination. All three plants are looking good so far. The Orange Bubblegum continues to lag the other two, but it's growing. I just watered 1 liter per plant on 10/2 and the pots are still heavy, so all I've been doing is a slight misting to keep the top soil moist. Waiting for my barley straw to show up, so I can start building a mulch layer. On 10/4/2022 the top of the soil was dry about 1 to 2 inches deep, so I watered about 1 liter across all three plants, so about 1/3 liter per plant. The bags were still fairly heavy, so this was mainly to keep the top soul moist. I've always used bottle nutrients with a dry down period, but from what I've researched, you want to keep the living soil lightly moist. I'm a bit skeptical so we will see how it goes. Using very little water in these early stages to avoid suffocating the roots (hopefully 🤞). On 10/6/2022 the pots started getting lite, so I did a full water of 1 liter per pot, using ThermX 70 and Fish Shit. Everything still looks healthy. On 10/8/2022 I added my barley straw as a mulch layer. Also, add a little less than 1/4 cup ground gnarly barley from Build-a-soil, with some worm castings as a top dress. Lightly watered to moisten the straw and top dress. Hoping the straw will slow the drying of the top inch or two of soil and prevent the light misting I've been doing. Avg. VPD: .8 PPFD: 300 DLI: 20

While I was away in Mallorca, enjoying the sun and smoking some Sativa Landrace, the girls were given a more simple feed to make things easier for my friend whilst he was taking care of the garden. The feedings came to around 700ppm (Including 150-190ppm tap water). As you can see in the video I've been bending her down for a couple of days instead of tying a string to her. It's just a lazy LST that should basically do the same thing. This Royal Cookies girl has progressed well since her topping and LST. She's a bit stretchy but a few more toppings should make her bush nicely. Every second feed from here on out will also contain Mammoth P for the first time in my garden! 🐺

Holy Sunday She is two weeks in flower and grows so vigours. Every Day I keep on tucking the branches under the strings. The Screen is slowly filling up. In 4 or 5 days I will stopp tucking. Light Power: 80% Day 53 Flower #8 Watered with 2,5L freshly brewed compost tea Sprayed with freshly brewed compost tea Day 56 Flower #11 Watered 2 L tap water

7 months after planting her from seed the day is finally here. A little earlier than I would of liked due to insects (crickets/grasshoppers eating buds) but she's thereabouts finished. Probably lost 1/3 of buds from the chewing insects but still a big yield and my drying room is full 😊 She survived two rainy season's and some serious wind from a tropical depression back in September. I have kept this grow completely organic so no pesticide or chemical fertilizers used. Apart from heavily amending the soil at the start I mostly fed her crabmeal once a month and seaweed and molasses in most waterings. A few of those waterings were diluted with my urine 😆👌 NPK right!? Why not.. then at the end I added a cultured pro biotic yogurt to the soil 2 days before I harvested. (Tip from a fellow grower @med_in_tropic - thanks bro) Not sure if it made any difference as I cannot compare with another plant but, the plant starting smelling like lemon furniture polish.. like a lemon scent with a fuel undertone. Almost menthol like 🤷‍♂️.. smells amazing. Me and my wife drank tea from the trimming and the citrusy flavour came though into the tea which was nice. Weather wise the temperature is down now to around 16c at night with RH around 50% so the buds should dry much slower than the last harvest so I should get a better flavour profile. Smoke report to follow after she has been in a jar for a week or so.. I did try a bud sample a few weeks back and the taste then was already pleasant so for sure this will be fire... 🔥 Thanks for all the kind comments, this was my first ever grow start to finish. Already looking forward to next season 😁

These three girls got transplanted today into their five gallon fabric pots. They were looking hungry so decided to do it early. I normally wait till 3.5 to 4 weeks. They were added to my custom mix of coco with perlite and added amendments, worm castings, and purple cow soil. Watered first with dechlorinated tap water and next with added mycos and cal mag.

O.Sherbert its have better structure of buds and better smell, high its diffrent then white widow but very positive 👍 O.S > W.W

Been another smooth week. A few of the plants are starting to show signs that they are moving towards to finish line. Seeing some swelling, pistils starting to brown, and some beautiful purples coming out in some of the buds. Been debating on giving them a dose of dry koolbloom, but I will probably just keep them running on the maxibloom until flush since they look pretty happy. It's hard to show this girls progress since shes in the far back corner, but shes stacking some nice golf ball size buds. I'm seeing some purple on some of the buds. Cant get in there to smell her either, but I bet yall wouldnt turn down a bud off her when shes ready🤣

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 5/31- Week 4 from seed and the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod is doing a lot better now that she's going through a growth spurt! The leaf chewing has mostly subsided now since I have been spraying Neem Oil on her every 2-3 days. She's also beginning to increase in height about an inch per day now and has great color and vigor. 6/2- Yesterday I top dressed the Papaya Sherbet with 2 cups of Gaia Green 4-4-4, 1 cup of Down to Earth Bio Fish along with 1/2 gallon of worm castings. After top dressing and working the amendments into the soil by hand, I watered it in via garden hose with straight well water. 6/4- It rained hard yesterday, so I skipped watering the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photo today as the ground was still pretty wet. 6/6- The last two days have been sunny and warm so I watered the Papaya Sherbet photo with straight well water from the garden hose today. Another week gone by for the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod and I'm looking forward to next week, as well as the weeks that will follow to see how this lady progresses! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Bitte entschuldigt meine Kamera, mein Handy ist mir paar mal schon runtergefallen. Dadurch hat die Linse gelitten.😅 Mein erster Grow, wünscht mir Glück

Week 4 for AK Triple Haze Auto by SSSC, This strain has doubled in size since last week, but unfortunately as you can see she's already in full preflower mode😒 meaning she wont be a massive plant, was really hoping she would give 6weeks of veg time not 3....😂 But in saying that i still love her structure & really look forward to seeing how she comes out in flower😍 I will be moving her outdoors today as well as we have a few cloudy days coming up that should help her have a smooth transition to the outdoor sun 💪. Will also start doing some LST on her now that she will have wayyy more room to go side ways. Shes still only being fed water only because of her @naturelivingsoiluk mix😇

Running out of room with these girls.. So I defoliate and water feed and hope the fans are helping.

Hello friends, everyone! I would like to inform you that this report is being held within the framework of the local growing championship in which the winners will appear in 4 categories .. Our girl will compete for the title in the Best Hibrid category! wish us good luck! And by the way! I have interesting plans for this girl!) do not miss the report!

5/7 Week 3! This is our first CBD Crack grown in coco and she is showing wonderful color, form, and size for only 14 days up. Very happy with this so far even if the delay does present some issues. She just so pretty! 5/9 She is just exploding, a full inch of height and girth in one day. No hairs yet, increasing nuets tomorrow 20%. 5/10 Nuets increased Raised her base up to get better light, think she has fully acclimated by now. 5/11 She has grown another node and another inch in one day! The reward for what we did yesterday, she wanted more light and nuets. Will leave things as they are for now. 5/12 Just call her "Inch a Day" a that is her growth rate. Training her today, Pony Tailing LST First hairs visible so folding in a light dose of Bloom 5/13 10 inches wow First cycle of pony tailing was productive though she still tacked on over an inch in 24 hrs. Secondary growth tips grew a lot during the process and expect tonight to be even more productive. Node spacing is about one inch so perfect now

Week 4 ( 22/8/23 - 28/8/23)

Gave the ladies their first dose of nutrients. I made sure they were very diluted. they loved it. When I came to check on them, they were all praying. Yay.
