So here we go again with some hopefully amazing new genetics from fastbuds to experiment with. I was very impressed with my previous testers and am looking forward to seeing what they kick out. So far I have had issues with germination and ended with inly 3 of the 9 I tried to herm fro the remaining testers I had !. I am so glad i at least got these ladies this far. 2 will be grownni living organic soil oots and 1 in the nft tanks fed on Megacrop. Not much to look at yet but the FFT9 has took off and been topped with a fimming. She is starting to look trainable now so will be bent soon. The other 2 will be a little longer wait but all in good time. Fingers crossed for some fruity fun .

Not giving her much water these days; today’s may have been here last. I think one more week, maybe two?

At 10 oz cured, it’s not the yield I was interested in but the quality and is it ever! This shit smacks, will def be growing it again but now, on to the lemon berry candy autos from ethos for my next grow. Check it out!

Background: This is a small grow in a 20" x 36"x 63" tent. Growing 2 sour diesel from seed in coco/perlite medium using General Hydroponic nutrients and primarily following feeding schedule as listed here http://gh.growgh.com/docs/Feedcharts/GH_FloraSeries-DTW_03216am.pdf . I'll be substituting "h3ad formula," i.e. 6 ml GH FloraMicro : 9 ml GH FloraBloom per gallon, for the first 3 rows in the pdf and also be skipping Diamond Nectar, FloraBlend, and FloraNectar. See pic above for nutrient list. Note: Second time attempting to grow this strain. Bud rot destroyed majority of previous grow so this is a redemption grow, hopefully. Lesson learned from previous failure - two circulation fans do not counter high humidity especially for the big buds over 3" wide. On chop day, after vegging for 3 months and flowering for 100 days, the insides of the buds closest to the stems were full of white cotton candy. Couldn't spot it from the outside at all. So lesson learned, and this time end of flower will coincide with low-humidity winter as opposed to the summer. Week 1 - Nutrient regimen: 6 ml GH FloraMicro + 9 ml GH FloraBloom per gallon. Used at 1/3 strength diluted with dechlorinated water. Solution ph'd to 5.8. 9/5/2019 (V1) - Sprouted yesterday and moved under 273 watts of vero 29 LED today, dimmed to lowest setting. Used rapid rooters for germination but would have preferred peat pellets since they stay can stay upright without support. 9/10/2019 (V6) - Fungus gnat larvae infestation! Transplanted to solo cups on 9/6 (V2) using ready mix bag of coco and perlite. Using 1/3 strength "h3ad formula" for first week and fed every other day. Growth appears stunted compared to previous grows and stems needed additional support to stay upright with circulation fan on. Feeding until runoff showed major infestation (see video #1). Can only guess coco mix bag was contaminated, since no adult gnats are visible in tent and yellow sticky card is empty. This has got to be my record for early fuckups! Attempting to treat with neem extract mix (dosed used 5 ml neem oil extract : 500 ml water) and a layer of diatomaceous earth on top (see V6 pic). Hopefully this treatment is better than not doing anything and letting those squirmy baby bastards take over. For a plant this young and without adequate root support this is a gamble. Also bumped up light a bit to 13000 lux as read on Light Meter v3.1 app by Trajkovski Labs using Samsung S6.

9.7. Smell changed from a mix of orange and maracuja to a whole multi vitamin juice kind of flavor over night. Under the loupe I can spot the odd amberish trichome, maybe by mishandling , but most are milky or clear, still producing more fresh ones. 12.7. A bunch of trichomes developing an amber hue. Also the leaves are turning yellow now. Harvest Window is open now, wanna see some more amber, but not too much. Mainly hoping for thicker buds.

This week was a tough one because we were not prepared for the heat and lack of clouds/rain that we were going to get. After the rain from last week died down the plants had a chance to get some raw sunlight. This was great but the temperature of the greenhouse did soar and the 'windows' could only do so much. PLUS there was barely any wind. We had to leave the Ghouse door open during the day but at night when the temperature dropped we closed it. The girls were doing great and you could tell who really loved the nutrients and who didn't... I recommend leaving ghte nutrient until the plants have at least three sets of leaves each, not including the initial sunleaves that will eventually die.

Day 8 08/07/24 Monday Light water with De-chlorinated tap pH 6.2 with half t spoon of DyNoMyCo. They seem to be loving it!! Germination week complete, Let's start the VEG 🤩 Updated short videos of strains ,✌️💚

Creciendo fuerte y adaptándose

Loved these genetics from Clearwater. Smells similar to bacio

The Weeding Cakes doing Fantastic ! No Problems. Got some more leaves because of the Humidity, but probably will be badass hash aswell 200w lights : Tenty pro x4 60% Humidity 12/12 light 28 Temperature

DAY 49 : Another week passes and these 2 ladies are still up for the fight to another week. Banana is still struggling g in the middle and cant seem to get ahead. She smells beautiful up close but is sadly not a great competitor so far. What she does have in buds is smelling nice and they are fairly solid to touch , just not a big plant really. Monster Zkittelz on the other hand is a beast of plant . I Have been pulling lowers up to the light this week and she is so covered in secondary growth with nice sized , glistening buds that smell candy sweet . Grows very like GG in her thin arms and bigger buds but with a scrog net this strain would produce so well. I am not disappointed in her in any way. Another week and let's see where she is at then.

Day 3 of flower & these ladies are stretching great! We are having a bit of a calmag Deficiency right now but currently in the process of trying to fix it so hopefully they bounce back! The Gelato OG from seedsman is a monster to only be 42 days old not sure if I just got a good pheno or what happened but compared to the other gelato beside it from the same bag it looks like a completely different plant! Can’t wait to see how the buds turn out! Happy growing friends!✌️🏼🙏🏼 Day 4 of flower - recharge water at 6.5 Day 5 of flower - ladies are really starting to fill out & stretch, can’t wait to see how this run turns out✌️🏼🌱 Day 7 of flower - Not much to say everything is going great so far! Thanks for following & happy growing friends✌️🏼🌱 Day 8 of flower - They are all stretching & growing so much everyday! Couldn’t be happier so far!👍🏼🤙🏼 Day 9 of flower - end of week 7 things seem to be going great so far, fingers crossed we can keep it this way through harvest! Happy growing friends & thanks for watching!✌️🏼🌱

AAAnd there you have it. A nice experience, my second time making seeds! I harvested the first day of week 15. A lot to say about this experiment. It came out awesome, lots of seeds (more than 100!) Wich I also tested and came out with the exact same phenotype. I added some more pictures of the outcome and of the seeds, cause I don't have much more data about the harvest! Sorry for the last time haha! Also! Leave a comment if you want to see more old diaries, I might have 4 or so documented like this, Including the first test of the seeds Wich you see some pics here 🤞.

March 11: start of day 8
