BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows. The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level. My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!! I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for. I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless. I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest. My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake. I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably. I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks. Thanks to everyone & all your comments. Wishing you all the best. One Love ❤️

Vorwort: Die Bilder dieser Woche sind leider nichts Besonderes geworden. Hab vergessen während des Gießens vergessen zu knipsen, und die Aufnahmen danach sind sehr schwach. Trotzdem dokumentiere ich sie, was wichtig ist. 🌿 Tag 29-35 - Lichtflut, Höhenflüge und erste süße Düfte Ich, Banana Purple Punch, bin diese Woche förmlich explodiert. Jeden Morgen war ich ein Stück höher, als hätte mich über Nacht jemand heimlich auseinandergezogen. Das Licht bei 100 Prozent hat mich wachgeküsst und irgendwie konnte ich dann nicht mehr aufhören. Meine Triebe arbeiten hart, meine Energien schießen überall hin. Ich weiß, der Gärtner schaut schon kritisch nach oben. Vielleicht beruhige ich mich bald. Vielleicht auch erst später. 🍌 Ich, Purple Haze, strecke mich nur so weit, wie es Sinn ergibt. Nicht zu viel, nicht zu wenig. Meine Höhe passt, meine Breite trägt mich gut. Keine Rennen, keine Dramen, nur ein ruhiger Übergang. Die Energie fühlt sich stabil an, ausgeglichen. Genau mein Ding. Wir beiden Lemon Cherry Cookies erleben gerade zwei völlig verschiedene Wochen. Ich, die Schnellere, fühle mich wie auf einem Marathonstartpunkt. Die Blüten schieben kräftig, weiß und deutlich. Mein Inneres summt, als hätte ich endlich begriffen, wohin die Reise geht. Licht, Wasser und Raum greifen perfekt ineinander. Und ich, die Gemütlichere, nehme das alles Schritt für Schritt. Warum rennen, wenn man auch sauber arbeiten kann? Meine Spitzen zeigen Blüte, aber ganz kontrolliert. Ich schaue mir alles erst einmal an und wähle meinen eigenen Rhythmus. 🍋🍒 Tag 34: Die ersten Düfte werden spürbar, zart und frisch. Tag 35: 4 Liter Wasser. Der Boden dankt es, wir auch. Die Woche war hell, laut und voller Bewegung. Jede von uns reagiert anders, jede setzt ihren eigenen Akzent. Die Blüte hat angefangen zu sprechen, noch leise, aber unverkennbar.

First day of week 6, I will be adding content as the week progresses, have a look at week 5 as that is now complete. Status: Candy Kush #1 d36 - Looking awesome, some pistils showing. Was too bushy so did some LST and slight defoliation today with supercrop on 1 branch. Candy Kush #2 d36 - Looks like nitrogen deficiency is sorted, now I have excess? :D see the clawing tips? Gonna stick with the current feed, hopefully she'll overcome otherwise I'll flush her once if things get worse. Bubble Kush d32 - Amazing, nothing to report, some tucking done Fastberry d32 - Looking as weird as ever, some tucking done Sugar Mama d36 - growing and getting really bushy, shame about the mess I did with the roots/stem but she is doing ok now. ---- Fed 2nd day of weeks 6 (day 37), 3ml biogrow 2ml calmag. pH was at 6.5 Ec was at 1.5. New leaves are really yellow in candy Kush 2, iron deficiency? Not sure what is happening, will be monitoring. ---- Day 38, Removed the yellow leaves and a little defoliation on all the plants ---- Day 39, Raised the shorter plants so they get some more lights. All of them have finished 35 days (5 weeks from seedling today) and are looking great. Feed the same, although they still look very bright, brighter than I am used to. ---- Day 41, Feeding time, started giving them bloom at 5ml/l and the other normal dosages as in diary. ---- Day 42, End of week 6 The girls are all looking great, there is is so much hair on the buds, haven't seen so much with outdoor grows. Exciting :D Sugar mama is way too bushy and not getting taller. The new blades are too thin, maybe I'm overfeeding her (only biogrow+calmag)? defoliated her, lots of fan leaves removes, she is asking for some training, I've ordered plant tie and will do some LST when delivered. Fastberry also had a couple of leaves removed All kushs doing great Thanks for reading and happy growing!

12.1. - I've started the week by adding the wires I mentioned, to spread the branches. I can already see some signs of preflower stage, so I guess it was right choice to stop bending the main stems. Let's see how will the plants react. 14.1. - Plants have reacted very well to the LST, so I've decided to add some more wires to the branches. Also had to tighten the ones already in place. 15.1. - Branches are shooting up, first preflower signs are clearly visible so I'm adding Bio Bloom & Top Max to the mix as well. Watered. 💧 17.1. - Almost all of the plants took over the full width of my pots. I have to adjust the wires everyday due to speed and strength of the branches. Seems like they really love LST. Watered. 💧 18.1. - Week wrap-up: I'm very happy to say that this week was successful. Plants have a lot of new growth and future bud sites. Today, I just couldn't resist and decided to bend the main stem to even all plants to same height. I've also swapped the plastic boxes under pots for new racks. I'm considering that I'll plant one more seed as I have some free space now, however I could use bigger LED. 💡 12.1. - 18.1.2024

I originally thought this was an autoflower, but it turns out it was a photoperiod. It was still in veg on day 65, so I switched the light cycle to 12/12 and 10 days later (day 75) it went into flower. This video is two weeks (14 days) after it went into flower.

She is the real Queen 👑 of the family. The Gsc is grow like under summer sun 🌞 very very fast and bigger respect the other sisters. She go really very well i belive our best auto but we are only beginners. Amazing leaves, new little buds is born, the trunk is large like a big plant and the structure is perfect. I know topping is nnon the best for auto but with rapid grow genetics is a bomb. Italian Cespuglio.

harvested in day 68. fast eddy was easy to grow. i couldnt stand that smell when harvesting, very strong, but my friend liked it. Diesel spice. smoke report will follow after 1,5weeks. will update the comment, just wanted to show some pics now. also guys from what you see did i harvest it to early or in time? update: saw powdery mildew, used h2o2 bath to clean it, mold is terribly bad for lungs and overall health. put the vent to dry water from cleaning, hope all be fine and powde00

The girls have grown so much and they already smell pretty good. I'm trying to decide if I should SCROG. I have a trellis net but it's just a net, not the boxy thing that I've seen others with. What do yall think, should I SCROG? GDP2 is in her 5th week. If she were the same age as GDP1 and BK, I'd flip them next week but I'll try waiting at least another couple of weeks to give her some time to grow a little more although she's catching up with the other 2 height. I'll be posting more throughout the week. 7/4/22: Defoliation... I know it's needed but they're my babies.... lololol 7/7/22: Look at my girls... they don't look like they've recently been defoliated. You can tell which ones are the Granddaddy Purples... they have a purple tint to them. The Bubba Kush is super green... 😍😘😍

Been a struggle since go with too much moisture. had to transplant to a hydro soil. Plus started using smart bags. Hopefully my issues are resolved and she grows to a pretty little plant. I imagine I have stunned it pretty badly. Still alive though. Thanks again for likes and follows.

Day 35, She is growing well and started stretching . Another week LST and light defoliation.

Another week has flown by! The girls are doing great, cruise control this week as I have just been monitoring RH and temps. Trying to keep them as low as possible, I’ve been getting as low as 74 during the day and 68 at night. I finally took a look a look at the trichomes with my jewellers loop, lots of cloudy, and a few amber around the leaves and top colas, but still lot’s of clear trichomes. I’ve ordered myself a wireless/usb digital microscope to assist with the process, and looks like it will be here just in time to determine harvest day. 😎🎄 I started by eliminating the nutrients at the beginning of the week. I typically allow for 3-4 pure water feeds before I harvest, and at the rate they have been drinking, this should be enough to get through the 7-12 days they have before harvest. I don’t flush, but rather “rinse” with normal water amounts, allowing the plant to use up the remaining nutrients in the soil. This also allows me to recover most of the soil from my grows and reuse ♻️ with other soil mix. There has been great debate and a great deal of bro science out there for many years, but the recent studies suggest there is no difference in end result when it comes to flushing or using nutrients right until the end, if a proper dry and cure is performed. What do you think? What do you prefer to do? Thanks for reading this far, leave me a comment with your preferred method 👊🇨🇦❤️

Started using chelated micronutrients, calcium sulfate, and Drip Hydros Base B to push the plants even harder. Everything mixed together nicely with no nutes crashing out.

Day15 - Day17: I had some difficulties to get the humidity right. It was either too high or fluctuating too much. I ended up getting a timer for the plug and running the humidifier 15mins every hour. To help with air flow, I have the main duct fan running 4 times a day for an hour. To ensure that there's airflow around the plant, I have a fan in the light as well as a smaller clip-on fan that runs during light hours. I'm not sure how the camera moved on day17... I only watered it mid-day. Day18: The timer on the humidifier and Duct Fan is now keeping the humidity in a good space. VPD now under control Day19: The Vivosun controller perfectly adapted the lighting schedule to an hour earlier, to ensure 6hrs of darkness. UInfortunately the RPi kept it's 04:00 schedule (makes sense). So I captured an hour of darkness. Adapted everything. Will have 18hrs again from Day20 onwards. Day20: In the next days I'll lift the camera higher for a better view of what's happening up top. My mesh-netting-dingsbums will arrive and I'll use this as a platform for the pi+camera. Day21: I'm not sure if I like this angle. I'll only keep it like this until she goes into veg-mode. It at least shows the new nodes growing from different perspective

APROXIMADAMENTE CUARTA SEMANA EMPEZAMOS POR PRIMERA VEZ NUESTRO LST Y UNA LIGERA PODA DE BAJOS. SEGUIMOS CON EL CABLE DE CALOR PUESTO Y TAMBIÉN AÑADIMOS UN CALEFACTOR PARA MINIMIZAR LAS BAJAS TEMPERATURAS

Boom! Touchdown! I let her dry for 13 days before the trim. The humidity in the grow tent was maybe a bit lower than what I usually prefer, but I wanted to be extra cautious against budrot in the other plant drying in the same tent. It was a breeze to trim her and the final result was 84.4 grams of pure flower with no larf at all. In fact, I didn't even bother keeping the trim as there wasn't all that much of it.

•Morning of day 19, ¾ through week 3. Did a light defol on both ladies. I gotta say I'm a big fan of Big Bud by Seedstockers! This girl is going to be exactly what her name is. I know its early with roughly 40 days to go, but I will for sure be growing this girl again. Any suggestions drop me a line. Happy gardening and stay safe Gromies! 🔥🌱🙏🖖✌️😷 •Morning of day 15, start of week 3. °Big bud is 32" in diameter after more LST. And 37"tall (soil to top). Less stretching and more compacting of nodes. Very pleased! She's feeding at full strength and looking like she might want more. Very vigorous growth. °Agent Orange. 30" in diameter after LST. plant did NOT respond well to LST. AND IS 36½" tall (soil to top). Also showed signs of nutrient burn. Will only feed half strength every 3rd watering. Any suggestions drop me a line! Happy Gardening!

Here we go into flower. If what they say is true, we're in for a nice color show.

Foliar fed shogun sumo boost yesterday

Day 88. Had to do it quickly, before remaking space and better air circulating by root level for Bagseed run, so Mr Earlier OG is chopped. No photos, had no time, dry trim chosen, same as for all that run. Some day. Absolutely forgot to make photos of Tallest Og. That girl was with amazing citrus aroma, but was chopped earlier, trimed wet and given away as a present to one friend after 6 days of drying.
