Been looking forward to sharing this week. I made some changes to the grow room to make it a little more easy to work in, added some new things to make it fun, as well as mounted fans for a new airflow pattern. We’re in flower this week and this girls been unbelievable to train. It’s one of the most resilient autos I’ve ever grown. Autos can be a gamble sometimes. I’ve lollipopped it, LSTed it, and supercropped it, heavily defoliated, it has always been leaves back up within a few hours, and the minty green color of these leaves is beautiful. It is my only time growing fastbuds lemon pie, but if someone is looking for one to train heavy I already feel confident recommending this one. Of course always listen to your plant. The addition of the crates helped me widen the usual tie down coverage I am limited to beyond the pots. I will never not use these crates in a future grow when training. The plant will breathe a lot better all the way through to flower. I have 4 corner air flow and a top fan I recently set up to work much more efficiently as a soft constant breeze mixed with a heavier oscillating gust to mimic the outdoors. The crates sit on a 12” wide 4 wheel dolly and spin within the new 14”x14” plant saucers. I just use a shop vac connected to a 7 gal bucket to remove the runoff. It’s been really fun sharing my grows and I can tell already it’s making me a better grower. I’ve got a cannon rebel now so I can take better quality pics and I usually post a lot of them and they are in order throughout the week. Part of growing is finding cheaper or smarter ways of doing things. If anyone has any tips they use or dollar store finds I’d love if you’d share in the comments. I never expected a $6 crate could change how my plants grow so much. I am not going to on this grow but it would be easy to zip tie 4 bamboo or pvc stakes in each corner and make an even wider raised single plant trellis system above the crates for a much cheaper price than buying one. I have considered doing 3 plant grows of the same strain on here and mainlining one, LSTing one, and letting one grow naturally to see what I get the best yields strain to strain with. I would be doing this within the fastbuds genetic lineup. If that’s something that sounds good to you I’d appreciate any feedback either way. Hope you enjoy… Happy growing!

Week 8 - day 50! Day 8 of flower. All of them are still going on strong! Loving there feed and no complaints whatsoever! Gonna raise the light over the weekend as it's a little too close for my liking, girls don't seem to mind! This is definitely a jungle 😂 Getting a heater when I'm paid to keep humidity low during lights off, lights on the humidity sits around 55% which is perfect but lights off it's getting far too high! Don't want to put in all the effort only to let mold ruin my entire crop! I will also get another fan, they need plenty of air circulation because they are all so close together! The flowers are starting to come through the scrog now, each of them are beginning to stretch too! Exciting times ahead! Feeding 2 litres every 2-4 days! I'm really impressed with these 3 gallon fabric pots too! I just hope the roots don't get root bound!!! They seem to be doing fine so far 😁 Happy growing guys and gals! The buds are coming!! Day 56 - video upload, looks pretty beautiful 😍

Week 10 Hi everyone, Everything going brilliantly. Girls are gaining weight, trichomes development it's amazing. As for now some buds up to 10-20% amber and some are still almost 100% clear and milky. Leaves are still pretty green and I may keep nutrients for this week but all will depend of trichomes palette before switching just to water. Please stay tuned for daily updates Have a great week everyone Peace and love ✌️💚 25/09 Day 64 Watering approximately 2.5l per pot. runoff 50-100ml. This lasting on avarage for 2-2,5 day. 27/09 Day 66 All going smooth. Girls are covered with frost. Noticing some more amber trichomes. Will keep watering them with nutrients tonight and will keep observing closely their development before cutting off nutes completely. 30/09 Day 69 We are approaching final days of this amazing journey😁After closer look decided to flush this morning. Only water and Fish Shit on ratio 0.4ml per 1 ltr. Flushed with approx 3 ltr per pot. Runoff 50-100ml. Runoff ph 6.4. 01/10 day 70 It's the end of week10 Currently trichomes at some buds up to 20-30% amber 😍 and on the rest milky with small groups of amber 5% As its a soli grow we have a good few days for development. Not sure about harvest day yet but I would say 6-14 days at most. Thank you so much for all support, likes and comments 😊✌️💚 Stay tuned as best still to come 😁 Peace and love brothers and sisters

420 Fastbuds Week 5 Gorilla Punch Auto What up what up everyone. This week has been great for both plants. The bigger one has definitely transitioned into flower in hyperdrive it seems as it's flower sites are growing fast. Still no signs of issues on either plant. The smaller plant finally has started to stretch upward a bit this week. All in all I'll keep the same routine as it's working for these girls. Happy Growing

~ Update ~ Finally my friends, it looks like everything has officially started the flowering cycle. I had a few issues going on, black spots, drastic drop in temps, fungal gnats, and a little more. I got everything under control for now, gotta keep a watchful eye ;) I’m a bit late with the notes and pics, so here they are! Enjoy :) ~ Individual Progress Notes ~ [CBD Blueberry] Height: 23.3” Tops: 8 Notes: The smell is getting more intense now. Still has hat tropical theme; papaya, melon, and sweet berries are the most prominent scents. I’m noticing slight purple towards the tips of buds and sugar leaves. Even though this pheno I have is acting up I like what I see, and smell ;) [Mazar] Height: 22.7” Tops: 16 Notes: I’m going to use nothing but water for a while. The leaves look ashy, and bland when the others are lush green. I wonder if this girl is a light feeder? I will water the others with seperate nute regimen to avoid making this condition worse. I also have little dark spots that show up on the leaves which I haven't found on the other girls. This being a unique event, I’m not sure if it’s fungal or nutes. I will find out eventually. I pick off all the leaves that are contaminated to avoid spreading this condition (if airborne or contact transfer applies). I will keep an eye on this one.... [Super Silver Haze] Height: 23.8” Tops: 16 Notes: This beast isn’t as full as WW for an example, though the stems and bud sites look solid! I really like how well this one is doing. Still has the biggest leaves too, I have high expectations for her. I wonder how much she’ll stretch in the next 3 weeks? [White Widow] Height: 22.5” Tops: 16 Notes: Out of all the girls this one has the most purple action goin on, I love purple and to me this is a great sign. The nutes work the best for this girl too, need to be careful to not overfeed the others because of this reason. I think this girls will purple out on me, well I’m hoping for that at least. I might let the trics amber to 50/50 make this girl a heavy sedative and muscle relaxant, I have time so no rush. I could harvest some of the buds with 10-20% amber then let the rest mature more, just a thought :) ~ Final Thoughts ~ I glad the majority are having no troubles, it’s a bummer I can’t get rid of this spot problem with Mazar. I need to act fast to make sure I can stop this from spreading. I might quarantine her if it comes down to it. I believe I can get to the root of the issue here, in due time. Anyways I’m glad I’ve gotten to this point! I’m very excited, starting to get a bit impatient from the anticipation… I promise I won’t harvest early ;) Much love you guys! Meus <3

After a lot of research I realized that my plant needs more food. I increased the PPM to 700PPM and plant seems to love it. Also I started spraying with Neem Oil and Copper Fungicide since I noticed some rust on the leaves. Also this week I added Roots Accelerator.

Blackberry Moon Rocks has become very tall and she is starting to flower now. And also stretching quite a lot. I had previously topped the plant, and one top had grown larger than the other. So, with that one, I decided to use a fabric tie and tie it to the pot, to hopefully try and even things out a little. There aren't really many branches on this plant.So hopefully that will mean that the colas grow bigger. Heres hoping, anyway! I have gone through the tent this week, and I have removed a lot of the lower branches on the plants, as they're not going to grow into big colas or anything. So it's better not to waste the plant's energy, developing those to hopefully redirect it into the larger flowers. 28.7.25: I watered with 3ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with; 💜 2.5ml Ecothrive Trace 💜 1 TSP Ecothrive Biosys PH: 6.3 PPM: 352 2.8.25: I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.6, containing the following nutrients; 💜 2ml Ecothrive Trace PH: 6.6 PPM: 425 3.8.25: Today I top dressed as follows: 🧡 1 Cup Worm Castings 💚 1.25 TBSP Ecothrive Bloom 💚 1.5 TSP Ecothrive Life Cycle I watered the top dress in with with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4, containing the following nutrients; 💜 1ml Ecothrive Trace PH: 6.4 PPM: 363 That's all I did this week 😊 Thanks for stopping by and checking out my diary. Good to see you in the comments! 😊💚✌️🌱😁

Since i put my filter the temperature ir a bit high, i think the extractor in not powerfull enough 😔 All 3 Sensi Skunk are 50cm tall, and starting to flower, Big Bug is 35 cm and only a few pistils.. I realized that i started to count day 1 when it was already day 5 or so.. but no problem 😁 I dont have a ph or ec meter (will be my next investment), i just have those drops for test ph, And today when i finished mixing the nutes, i tested with those drops and it was to low, (orange color) so i had to take off 1/4 off the solution, and add tap water, which has high ph and i manage to bring the ph up,(yellow color). Hope they like this mix of waters and nutes i gave them 😆 13/06/2021 Day 27 (from seed) - 1.7L water+nutes Day30 - 2L water Day32 - 2L water + nutes Big Bud is not looking good 😔 bottom yellow leaves and the upper leaves very pale.. growing very slow compared to the others. Same water and nutes for all of them, so i dont know whats the issue. ☹️

On day 1 I changed out my reservoir, and added my bloom nutes, adjusted my light schedule to 12/12 and defoliated the plants. I adjusted the reservoirs PH to 6.1 My hope is that by flipping this cultivar earlier than my last run, I will not run out of vertical space ;). On day 2 I adjusted my reservoirs PH down to 6.1. On day 3 the clawing is almost completely gone. I adjusted the reservoirs PH down to 6.1. On day 4 the reservoir's PH is at 6.1. I defoliated the plants removing anything blocking lower growth to increase light and air penetration of my mains. On day 5 the reservoirs PH is 6.1. On day 6 I adjusted the PH of the reservoir up from 6.0 to 6.3. I will let the PH drift between 6.1-6.3. on day 7 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. I lowered the light intensity from 100% to 85% to give the top of my plant canopy an average PPFD of 700-1000. I plan to reduce the intensity as the plants continue to stretch to keep them in the 800-1000 PPFD range. I just got my first quantum par sensor and I'm really loving the new data it gives me to optimize my lighting.

Cherry A causing me all sorts of issues. She's falling on top of Cherry B. And in turn, Cherry B is hitting into my other plants (Grandpa Stash). Also noticed what looks like pollen sacs on day 78.

Big thanks to the homie @wicked_stix for providing me with this Masterpiece! One plant was grown in coco coir drain to waste with cropsalts other DWC also with Cropsalts. Hydro was neglected but ran itself for 3 weeks as a stand alone system. All in all got over 380gr running the light at 280w for the hydro setup full of frosty the ⛄️ type buds with tremendous sugary flavours ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Nearing the finish line with these. They just keep on bulking when you think they’re done! Sounds like one of them good problems to have, you know!

Doing great I think. A little concerned that one of my plants is getting red hairs already. Seems a little early but I'm gonna leave it as a grow question . I do get that autos do their own thing bit considering the other one doesn't even have one red hair vs the literal hundreds of them on its twin. Otherwise the smell is starting to come through. Very citrusy and sweet. Not super strong but its def there and if you touch the plant at all ot goes from weak smell to normal easily. Can't wait for these girls to finish. Anyone checking this out please lemme know how I'm doing. I've never done autos and all my grows prior to this year have been outside so its all still learning for me. Thanks guys.

En esta actualización se incluyen 2 semanas ya que por trabajo me fue imposible añadir la semana anterior. El día 15 de Agosto recibió la segunda pulverización de Bacillus Thuringiensis para prevenir el ataque de las orugas. Sigo alternando riego de agua un día con riego de Ascophillum Nodosum al día siguiente. He dejado de regar con Cannazym.

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** Ok, so bigger news this week, I got rid of one of the plants in the tent as it was an auto vs fast flower :/ and I performed a bunch of LST and some Defoliation to all the plants. This plant was not to bad in terms of lst needs and defoliating needs as much as the other ones. This will be the last week they are in Veg and switching to flower cycle next week with a 12/12 photoperiod. I was going to try a 13/11 but I wanted to test out the automatic light functions on the Medic Grows Minisun-2, So this will be relieved next week. Been having issues with PH in the medium again and some nutrient uptake. I am thinking I will switch to another brand I have to use up, trip tonic from my last grow on the balcony. Its a bit more complex and not as easy as mix into water and feed but I think its going to help me solve a lot of the issues I am getting. Given this update is a few days late some of these pics are not from today. the clones in the photos above are from the beginning of the week when I potted them up. They have not done well at all and may not make it. can only hope for the next few weeks they pull through. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ + https://www.emeraldtriangleseeds.co.uk/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled + https://www.facebook.com/OriginalETS/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow + https://twitter.com/emeraldseeds Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ + https://www.instagram.com/emeraldtriangleseeds/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow + https://growdiaries.com/grower/emeraldtriangleseeds https://growdiaries.com/seedbank/emerald-triangle-seeds
