In Italia i cambiamenti climatici sono molto evidenti, questo mese di maggio è stato come aprile cioè pioggia incessante ogni giorno e temperature pazze con sbalzi assurdi ma nonostante ciò le bellissime dutchfem autofiorenti continuano a crescere in maniera abbondante, rapida e compatte. Ero preoccupato per il terreno troppo bagnato ma per fortuna non hanno minimamente stressato o rallentato la crescita di queste varietà autofiorenti così adatte ad ogni esigenza. Alcune sono già in pre fioritura e massimo tra dieci giorni la fioritura sarà evidente. Il meteo migliorerà tra una settimana circa e quindi con il caldo estivo forte italiano queste varietà non faranno che fiorire in maniera massiccia come ogni anno saranno risultati indimenticabili soprattutto in outdoor biologico. Alcune sono state morse da lumache che spesso tentano di mangiare le foglie ma non hanno ottenuto nulla, queste piante si difendono bene. I nutrienti a lenta cessione è risultato inutile con la pioggia incessante si è sciolto subito ma non è un problema perché il terreno è molto equilibrato e nutrito da anni. Verranno nutrite a fioritura inoltrata,per ora crescono abbastanza rapide e non hanno bisogno di ulteriori attenzioni. Hanno circa sei internodi alcune quindi la fioritura magica a breve inizieranno tutte insieme come una sinfonia musicale!

Diaries updated daily so please check back! Welcome to day 1 of week 4 aka day 22 since breaking ground. Nesia continues to impress, being by far the most advanced plant for her age that I have grown so far. I am very excited for this week in particular. She is following Karen's pattern exactly, except without the three week bad start. By the end of this week I expect she will be 50cm in diameter at least. Day 22.5: Performed LST on secondary nodes. Day 23.5: Fertigated. Adjusted pot and added risers. Performed some brutal LST. She's growing almost completely horizontal now. My plan is to train her around the pot circumference. She's currently about where Karen was at the end of week 5. She is consistently 10-11 days ahead of Karen so far. Exciting. Brutal LST honestly I'm basically torturing her at this point. Day 23.75: Fertigated 3l Day 24: Nesia has put on a lot of foliage growth in the last 24h. I am noticing a pattern here with defoliating, it seems that the plants seem to alternate between focusing on foliage growth and focusing on height. I am starting to think regular defoliation may reduce internode distance and stretching. I am going to test this theory a bit by letting both Nesia and Misty grow a bit now before I further LST the primary node. Removed a few fan leaves. Day 26: Reconfigured tent. See video. Nesia now has more light. Incidentally, I believe I have now corrected the Magnesium deficiency, colour is looking great, growth accelerating rapidly. I did say this would be an even bigger week than last and it is certainly shaping up that way. Fertigated 2l. Day 27: Performed major LST and minor defoliation. Nesia is really growing well. She fills the big pot already. I severaly pruned the companion plants to make room for Nesia. I also reorganised the tents and configuration again while installing upgrades. New reflector. Much bigger carbon filter. Airflow and light both increased and optimised. See video. Day 28: Nesia has responded quite strongly to the LST and defoliation yesterday. Nesia has not been watered for 48h. I am doing a short "dry spell" for all the plants. End of week summary: Well what a great week for Nesia. She hid a lot of her growth under massive leaves until the LST on day 27. I was pretty hard with her, and I aslo defoliated. She saved us a big surprise for the end of the week. Can you believe the response 24h later? That is quite shockingly good adaptation. I am certain that the reason she responds so strongly, is because by now, the end of week 4, she is well used to this regular process. Every time I have done LST and/or defoliation she has responded quicker and more vigorously. Nesia is going to far, far exceed Karen in size if she keeps up at this rate. Overall I couldn't be much more pleased with Nesia. She is an absolute star and I am already thinking a possible future diary of the month winner. I have been extremely impressed with Fast Buds genetics so far.

Looking at her, you'd say she grew more than 4cm higher... But that's all the vertical height she grew this week. But she got loads bushier!!!!!!! Hopefully she's building roots for her future!

BIGFRUITS!! 😍 I love the tasty terps with this one!! https://greenbuzznutrients.com/ Thanks also of course @Anesia_Seeds, for the beautiful genetics!! πŸ’œ πŸ’œ πŸ’œ ________________________________________________________ Strain Information: Foster Foster is a balanced hybrid with a slight sativa dominance and it’s the result of crossing a particularly THC-rich Emperor Cookies Dough with our highly potent Sleepy Joe. The combination of these two exceptionally strong parents has resulted in a premium strain that delivers a fine balanced aroma and an insane high. Foster’s high is deceptively slow at first and creeps up, but after a few minutes her outsized potency unfolds with dizzying energy and euphoria. The mind is suddenly full of motivation and a feeling of lightness spreads. At the same time, the body is flooded with tingling, warm effects and greatly relaxed. The strain clears your mind for new ideas and concepts, lets you dream and makes you feel really happy. Due to her high potency and measured THC levels of up to 35%, she will delight and challenge those with a high tolerance with ease, while certainly beaming away novices for several hours. Because of this, she is not recommended for beginners and you should not underestimate this fragrant beauty. Growing Foster Foster is a resilient and vigorous strain that produces excellent results indoors, outdoors and in the greenhouse. She tips the scales in yields of up to 550g/mΒ² or 1000g per plant, grows quickly and forms many strong side branches with large heavy buds. Towards the end of the flowering period, the buds are covered in a thick layer of glistening resin and emit an intense sweet, fresh and floral scent. She is perfect for growing in a SCROG or SOG and has a very favorable calyx-to-leaf ratio, making manicuring easy. Her terpene profile is complex, offering an aroma and flavor reminiscent of coffee, caramel, freshly baked cookies, and vanilla. It’s a seductive treat that shouldn’t fool you with her mind-blowing potency. She is among the strongest strains on the market and has enough THC to blow your head off. Therapeutic effects Due to its complex terpene and cannabinoid profile, it has a similar wide range of uses in the therapeutic field as in the recreational field. It helps to reduce stress, has a mood-enhancing effect and is extremely helpful for pain and inflammation. https://anesiaseeds.com/product/foster/ ________________________________________________________________________________ SETUP: 80x80x180 cm Zelsius 240W Full Spectrum LED IR UV dimmable DW240H-A6-HS Heatsink color red LED Chips: 512pcs SAMSUNG LM301H + 24pcs Osram 660nm + 8pcs Osram IR 730nm + 8pcs UV 385nm Color mix: 2700K + 4000K 2,8umol/J Driver HLG-240H-C2100B Coverage: veg 5x3ft / flower 4x2ft Product size: 628x205x68mm Green Buzz Nutrients Shouts go out to my sponsors @GreenBuzzNutrients, thanks so much for your support! πŸ’š πŸ’š πŸ’š If anyone would like to try their amazing organic products, use code GD42025 for generous 25% discount (for orders of minimum 75€) ✨ https://greenbuzznutrients.com/ Biobizz Lightmix custom exhaust fan 320/270cmΒ³/h Carbon Active Granulate 240cmΒ³/h tab water pH 8 - EC 0,25 with Calmag to 0,5 Advanced Hydroponics pH minus Grow + Bloom to pH 6.2 πŸͺ 😍πŸͺ 😍πŸͺ 😍πŸͺ 😍πŸͺ 😍πŸͺ 😍

Alien tech is coming along nicely, she is scrog’d with 3 other Ayahuasca Purple and seems to be doing beautifully. She didn’t stretch as much as the Ayahuasca, but I was able to keep the Ayahuasca lower by spreading it more then the Alien Technology. Screen is not perfectly even, but there all within the sweet spot for my 1000w HPS so things should start ramping up soon! Not much else to say this week, just been checking the ph levels and adding 8 gals or so of water/nutrients every 2-3 days to the main reservoir feeding all 4 plants. So far they are good with the same nutrients so that is good! Lol cheers πŸ’¨

All started to flower and the stretch begins! Lost a few tops with training. I will opt for just topping instead of LST (too time consuming) Will start slowly dropping nitrogen and increase phosphorous and potassium with some molasses! Last two shots are of last bit of LST and leaf tucking/defoliating

This will be my 1st auto run. Other than one time I was sent some free f1 autos from rqs and I started some but I ended up tossing them for some reason or another. I am actually super excited to try out fastbuds. I have been wanting to try out fastbuds for over a year now. I'm not the greatest with seedlings so I am doing a test run with a 2x2 tent I'm gonna try and grow the best plant I get out if the 3 seeds hopefully it doesn't out grow my small 2x2 tent . Pound cake thou looks like a killer strain with some fat buds can't wait to see how fast fast buds really are. Here we go.

All done with the growing, now time for the long arduous harvest πŸ˜ΈπŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈβœ¨. Started the harvest on day 63 of flower, I’ve not just checked their trichomes with a loop or anything, but I’m happy with how they look. The smell is very intense. Slightly worrying in all honesty πŸ‘€ filter is really struggling, contemplating getting out my spare extractor fan&filter just while it all drys. Maybe two filters will scrub the smell completely. It’s a lovely smell, Sour Tangy Sherb, but now an extremely heavy gassy wall of smell has permeated everything. Pretty much all the buds have turned purple, just a few of the lowers are a pale green, but that’s to be expected. I’m in the process of cutting them all up into individual branches, giving them a quick wet trim, then hanging them on hangers. I’m aiming for around 10 days drying, then a final trim and into jars for curing. This was the final run of the MotorOG, it’s been a fun strain to run 😸 another decent one from LIT Farms. I’d like to thank everyone who’s taken the time to have a look, comment or like this diary, I hope it’s been helpful in some way. PersonalSmok3s πŸ˜ΈπŸŒ±πŸ’š
