Another good week getting ready. They are all very well, as envisaged last week I will switch to Extreme mode of the table Aptus. I hope not to make mistakes, my mixture is ready but I find it very busy, but I tell myself that I follow the guide Aptus. We'll see 😥😱

She went through her 1st issue, and started to show signs of a cal-mag deficiency. I realized I was very light on cal-mag and did not increase the amount of cal-mag as much as needed with this monster. Problem solved. This was her last vegetative week, LET'S FLIP THAT BOMBASTICK 👈😎👌

Wow has she grown like a fat lady on Christmas! She is almost as tall as me now, predicted to be as tall as me (5 11) within the week when her stretching finishes up, super happy with how this grow is going and honestly couldn’t ask for any better, big shout out to Gaia green for this one. Makes growing easier than ever. I top dressed with 10 tbsp of bloom mix this week ( 1tbsp per gallon) and may top dress once more later in flower to make sure I have no deficiencies like with my auto flowers.

All good;))))

Week 30 – Flowering Week 7 (Harvest) This week marks the end of the Pineapple Upside Down flowering cycle. The plant was flushed for a full week leading up to harvest. During this final phase, light intensity was deliberately reduced to help preserve trichomes and maintain the terpene profile as much as possible. A clear color change was observed compared to the previous week, confirming the plant was reaching full maturity. Trichomes were inspected closely and showed a dominant cloudy appearance, with a balanced presence of amber and very few remaining clear trichomes. Harvest has now been completed. The plant is entering the drying phase, which is planned to run at approximately 16–17°C. Drying time is expected to be at least 15 days, possibly extending to three weeks depending on conditions. Aroma at harvest is very pronounced, with strong pineapple and exotic fruit notes. Yield is not expected to be exceptional, with a large proportion of small buds, but all material will be used. Lower-grade buds and trim will likely be processed rather than discarded. This run came with its share of challenges and difficulties, but it provided valuable lessons. The focus going forward is to refine the process, improve consistency, and aim for a repeatable quality standard. The next update will take place after drying, trimming, and weighing, with a full harvest review. See you in a couple of weeks. Take care.

Wedding cheesecake FF by Fast Buds Germination, days: 3 Vega (18/6), days: 35 Flowering (12/12), days: 64 Total, days: 101 Ec 2.5 (Athena bloom, Fade, Cleanse, Balance) Ph 6.1 Red 100% Blue 25% UV 20% DLI ~32 T. Day: ~25C T. Night: ~21.5C Humidity: ~57% T.leaf: 24.5C Week progress. Two slow plants are still lagging behind, the video shows what a variety of phenotypes, it is very difficult to grow. I plan to harvest in a week, afraid that if I'll do not cut then buds will start to turn yellow. I probably won't keep the two lagging plants longer because the box is needed for drying. The smell is similar to sweet strawberries.

EDIT: I've added some pics and video of my negative pressure setup to ensure no smells in my little 8x8 office! In fact, this room has the freshest smelling air in the house because it's constantly filtered XD This is what hospitals do when they quarantine people -- they put you in a negative flow room so any drafts you feel under the door, from the ceiling and windows, microscopic holes in the room, etc are going INTO the room, and exhaust is controlled through some decontamination method (I'm unfamiliar with that part of it). This week was a huge struggle with the clones. Self-inflicted. I was going to keep them in the buckets for a while, but when I watered them mid-diary-week pot A was not draining even though it has some decent drain holes and rocks on the bottom. I tried digging out the sides down to the bottom to try to open it up, I tried mashing on the sides and bottom of the pot to break stuff up... But it just would not stop being a pool of standing water :( So, I had to do an emergency transplant into the new perlite hempy bucket. Now other than a washed out soil/root plug about the size of my fist, I'm hydro in 100% perlite. (Manual Hydro though, I am the pump! :P) Been giving it MaxiGro since, and I think it actually really loves being in the perlite :O After having such success with the transplant for A, I decided to transplant B right after just because. But, I didn't cut one of the LST strings all the way :facepalm: When I went to lift it out I didn't get very far at all and the main stem snapped off, leaving only one fan leaf and some tiny growth! I figured since it has a healthy root system, it'd eventually recover / stabilize. So I did one of those "whistle while sweeping it under the rug" things, and just put it back the way it was. I've noticed a bit of growth today on official end of week clone servicing day, so I went ahead and transplanted B into a hydro bucket too! Gave it 2-7-7 cactus food and a splash of CaliMagic, the higher P and K of the cactus food should help it recover faster (or so I've read). We'll see how this goes moving forward. Even if it's a flop, it'll at least be a learning experience. I've moved plenty of plants from pot to pot, but never from grow medium to grow medium -- which is actually quite stressful and dangerous to the plant if you don't do it perfectly with all the precautions in place (like using gloves so you don't touch the roots!) I'm excited at the prospect of not having to screw around with soil any more. I can just rinse and sterilize (will use steam most likely) the perlite and it's good to go for the next grow! A shout out to someone I met on here that has been patiently answering all my questions regarding the hempy buckets, perlite, hydro nutrients, etc. I don't want to reference them by name because I don't want to risk causing them to receive a flood of questions from a bunch of random people.

we entered flowering that's so beautiful purple color everywhere but she just started so let's watch her full out . still on bat poo diet

Literally the biggest of them all big elongated arms long buds also smell really sweet something like cotton candy with fruit intense the smell i am feeding her she is getting fatter and we will have more weight with this girl if we wait so just watch her go 🤗

2/1/2024- Pre-Germination Activities Day 1 I have 21 weeks until final photo is do.. I took 3 seeds out of cold storage and will let them get to room temp for the next 48 hours before I go with Glass of water for germination. I have 3 beans because I will start from the very beginning helping ensure I present the best Pheno. This is going to be a fun one.. I am a few days away from being able to clear my tent out for this run.. I have a breeding run in right now and the Seeds are a few days away from being mature enough for me to take down the girls. Once I get them down I will need to get my tent cleaned up and turned over right away. This is going to be close, I will have to time them to the water and into the tray at the right time.. because I will need to get lighting on them right away.. I have my 2X2 and my light ready incase I need to hold them in the cloning machine if the others are not done in the next few days.. Glad I have options that can stretch me out for a week or 2 to give me a little more time. 2/2/2024- Pre-Germination Activities Day 2 I checked on my breeding run to see how close the seeds are and if the tent is ready for me to clear and clean but alas I am still going to need a few days. I setup the emergency 2X2 and that should give me 2-3 weeks. The plan is to still wait one more day to allow the beans to warm up to room temp and then drop them in Water sometime tomorrow. Form my Emergency 2X2 I have the following: 4" inline fan and carbon filter Fan VS-2000 light 2/3/2024- Germination Activities Day 0 - Dropped the Beans in.. Today is 0 day.. Go.. Go .. Go.. 2/4/2024- Germination Activities Day 0-1 - Checked in on them this morning and no tap roots yet.. covered them back up and back in to the closet they went. I setup the Root Riots and the Seed tray for them. I Ensured my water that I was soaking the root riots in was PHed to 5.8 and I used RO water. Afternoon Update: Checked on my Breeders and they are done. I started to harvest them, I took down the one I had reversed with STS and I took down the Black African Magic- All but one bud, I wanted to get some pics of that one today. I was only able to get 2lbs into the Cannatrol because I had to be very careful to keep the bud from the plant that was treated with the STS separated from the other seeded bud that was pollenated from the plant I reversed. Cannatrol could have held an additional 2oz of wet but not today. Ideally I need 1 more Cannatrol so I can take an entire Tent, but will figure that out. I put an additional 1.5lbs into the freezer to wait it's turn into the Cannatrol, I would have left it on the plant and taken it in 4 days when the dry cycle gets done but wasn't sure how much 2.2 lbs was equivalent to chopped and wet trimmed. 2/5/2024- Germination Activities Day 0-2 - Checked in on them this morning and 2 of them have very small tap roots out.. one still doesn't going to give them some more time. I will check in on them this evening and see if they are more open if so I will transfer the ones that are ready to their medium and seed tray. 2/6/2024- Planting Day TRUE Germination Day 0- Checked in on them this morning and all 3 of them have tap roots out. I broke the bottom of the tap root for #1 which was the biggest.. pretty sad.. I hope she survives.. I tried to be careful it just snapped off when I was trying to get it in the root riot right. Other than that all three are now in their in-between home in the 2X2 while if finish clearing and cleaning out their forever homes. 2/7/2024- Germination Day 1- Checked in on them and no surprise no sprouts yet. Sprayed the dome to moist it and light spray to the tops of the Root Riots. 2/8/2024- Germination Day 2- #3 is popped and it looks like #2 will be popped by this evening.. I got my second Cannatrol today so now I can take down the rest of the tent and get it into the dry/cure. 2/9/2024- Germination Day 3- #2 is popped as well.. so I have #2 and #3 up and still waiting to see on #1 but that might be a loss since I accidently broke off some of the Tap root when transplanting. 2/10/2024- Germination Day 4- #1 has Popped... We have ignition on all 3.. YAY!! I finished clean up and install of RDWC system, this time was unique the back left buckets 3 inch pipe wasn't seated correctly so I had to clean up about 12 gallons of water all of the floor. I also had two leaks coming from one of the Waterfall return junctions, this is why I do a full pressure test before I put anything in. I will continue to monitor it through tomorrow to ensure that I am good to go and then I will finish setting up the baskets and prepping the water to be ready for the ladies planting day!!! 2/11/2024- Germination Day 5- #1 Of course is going to be my trouble plant.. No matter what If she lives through planting in the system and making it, I think I might not cull her at all regardless, she has been such a problem, makes me wonder if she will be super worth it towards the end.. We will see as we go through this grow, but #1 has a piece of the shell on the leaves, Other than that I set up a new thing I have been doing since last grow converting my Baskets into Sure plants so I can see exactly where the water is when I plant them and ensure I have the water up high enough that they are able to access it and grow but not too high were they are drowning. 2/12/2024- Germination Day 6- Everything seems to be going good.. will just keep them moist and let the roots grow for a few more days before I transplant to forever home. 2/13/2024 - Germination Day 7- Just keeping them Moist. 2/14/2024 - Germination Day 8 - Planting day.. they are now in the system.. :-)I had to fill the water to the bottom of the basket where I could see water on the bottom rocks and just coming up where I had created my whole/ sure plant. 2/15/2024 - Germination Day 9- Top fed just a little to keep them moist and encourage root growth towards the water. I ensured the PH is right at 5.98-6.02 range. 2/16/2024 - Germination Day 10- Top fed just a little to keep them moist and encourage root growth towards the water.

Bigg diffrence since last week

This week I can see the bud sites starting to stack up — she’s looking happy and healthy. Whenever a big fan leaf blocks the bud sites, I just snip it off. I’m still fighting to get the RH down, though. By the end of next week, I’ll give her a nice fresh haircut.

Day 1 week 2 Day 2 week 2 Day 3 week 2

3/14 Random hot day here, lights on temps ran upto 88 for about a half hour, when I got here I increased fan speed and got temps stabilized at 78. Thankfully I run lights on at night. 3/15 Flushed and hand fed plants tonight mold and hermie check complete. TB and BC really started to fatten up. Used 16oz can to illustrate current growth. (label hidden, not intentionally trying to advertise, can remove pics if not in compliance) 3/19 GSC cola starting to fatten up, some of the hairs on all but GSC are starting to yellow. 3/20 BC main cola is 75% cloudy, no signs of ambers. Breeder says 10 weeks cumulative life span but i think she will run 80 to 90. TB still a lot of clear probably 85 to 95 days, GG is a wild card sue to her structure, and GSC buds aee swelling. Cold damp weather ahead. Carefullysprayed leaves only down with sm90 as preventative measure. Tomorrow starts week 11

This week I saw a pretty large gain in vegetation. At the moment I am unable to train the branches outward because I am out of space indoors, we are just under a month out from putting them outside for good; they have grown about 8.5 inches in height. I top dressed the medium with a 70/30 mix of Gaia greens all purpose 4-4-4 and power bloom 2-8-4 and continue to water with ancient earth every watering. It doesn’t seem to be in need of any cal mag so I have left it out of the watering schedule this week. I will continue time the light down every ten days by half hour to match the 16 hour day it will be when I bring them outside. So far I am very impressed by these ladies

10/23: I fed today with One, sweet & sticky, signal, superthrive, silica, and a little ca/mg. 10/27: Fed today with one, signal, sweet & sticky, silica, beastie bloomz, kangeroots, and humic acid.

i love the flowering stage .........im new to this site i love to get or give advice very open minded into new styles of growing!!!!!!!!!!.....................i kept up my lst 5th day 2nd week of flower im all caught up on my update!!!

Been quite busy so missed a week on here... everything is looking great both responded really well to being topped not much else to say,.. defoliated abit of the bottoms after this video but yeah other than that roll on next week 👌
