plants r almost DEAD

Everything was fine this week, the plant looks very happy and healthy.

With a bigger pot could have definitely pulled off more but very happy with the result and quality of buds produced.

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 8/5- Whoo Hoo! The first week of flower is finally here for the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower from FastBuds and I am excited to say the least!🤩 8/7- We finally have some much needed rain on the way in the way of a tropical system which will be bringing on and off showers from today through the 9th. As a result of this gift from above I will not have to water the rest of this week! 8/9- After the storms passed, I did a damage assessment on the Wedding Cheesecake FF. Luckily, she suffered no broken branches. Some of her branches did get blown into others which created a tangled mess. I untangled her branches and got her as close to where she was before the storms as I could. I'm confident that once she gets some sunshine on her that she will snap right back to the beast that she is! 8/11- Today I went back to my daily watering schedule and also removed a bunch of yellowed shade leaves from inside the canopy as well as a half dozen small shoots that would only produce larf. I'm pleased to see that she's recovered from the wind damage she suffered a couple of days ago. Well there's the first week of flower for the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower 'Beast from the East', and I'm super stoked to see how this lady puts on weight over the course of the next month! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Added some potassium sulfate and they seemed to bounce back but now they want calcium and I’m pretty sure the potassium I put in is antagonistic to calcium. I might harvest early to prevent any trichome degradation due to photosynthesis being halted, trichomes are looking milky too.

Привет садоводы и огородники !!! Это последняя неделя вегетативного роста крона растения сформирована растение готово к стадии зацветания сегодня я поменял раствор и сделал его чуть крепче PH я отсавил без изменений .как в водопроводной воде PH 6.8-7.0 на нейтральном ph растение хорошо приспособилось .хорошо растет и чувствует себя вроде не плохо продолжу дальше этот эксперимент.

Feliz por como van mis gorilas, todos los días hay cambios y cada semana tengo que aumentar el riego, esta semana utilice en total 18 litros, 4.5 litros para cada planta aproximadamente. En los primeros 6 litros uso: ▪️︎4ml de Connoisseur A y B por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Rhino por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Bud Candy por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Carboload por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de B-52 por litro de agua. Espero 30 minutos y despues aplico otros 6 litros con los siguientes nutrientes: ▪️︎4ml de Connoisseur A y B por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Nirvana por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Big Bud por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Overdrive por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Voodo Juice por litro de agua. No tengo medidor de EC, por lo tanto trato de que las mediciones en ml sean exactos con una jeringa. ☆ 1 día a la semana riego las plantas con 6 litros de agua sin nutrientes y con un PH en 6.0, hasta el momento no han presentado carencias pero tengo la duda si tienen exceso de nitrógeno por el color verde intenso de las hojas.

Looking sexy af getting the crystals

Day 36 - the girls seem to be happy, and are growing a bit different One of them is flowring a bit faster and also starting to turn purple, the other is a bit slower but looks much more healthy.

*Increase PPM from 850 to 1000 over did it oh well. *Transplanted from 1 gallon to 5. * Might wait a week to let them recover to put them in flower.

En la 6ta semana de vegetación hicimos una poda de bajos y desfoliación en general para potenciar el crecimiento de los brotes superiores, mejorando la iluminación y ventilación en el cultivo. También hicimos unos cuantos amarres (lst).

Week 12 | Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North Week 12 and the room is doing exactly what we hoped it would do. This is the part of the run where patience matters more than intervention. The structure is built. The weight is there. The resin is there. The metabolism is still active. Now the job is simple: maintain stability, reduce noise, and let the plants finish with calm. And that is exactly where this room is right now. A quick recap: 12/12 from seed For anyone new joining the diary, this run was flowered under 12/12 from seed — meaning these plants were grown under a flowering light schedule from day one, instead of being vegged under 18/6 and flipped later. That changes the entire architecture of the plant. Instead of building wide, heavily branched bushes during a long vegetative phase, the plants stay more columnar, more direct, and more apically focused. Less wasted lateral growth. Less unnecessary vegetation. More efficient top-to-bottom flower development. That’s why this run looks like this. Lean frames. Stacked tops. Excellent vertical flower distribution. And dense, productive bud sites from upper canopy all the way into the lowers. This style is not about brute force. It is about efficiency, timing, and letting the plant express itself with less interruption. Week 12: the room is finishing beautifully This week the room feels exactly like a late flower room should feel. Not loud. Not explosive. Just mature. The flowers are dense and fully formed now, with visible weight from top to bottom and clear structural consistency across the canopy. The upper tops have finished stacking and are now settling into their final shape, while the lower and mid sites continue proving exactly why the undercanopy support mattered so much in this run. That lower development is one of the biggest wins here. The undercanopy lighting did exactly what it was supposed to do: it kept the lower flower sites active, productive, and worth carrying to the finish. Instead of soft lowers and wasted interior material, the plant continued producing meaningful flower mass deeper into the canopy. Combined with the top lighting, this created a much more even distribution of usable flower across the full plant. And that shows clearly now. The room is not just top-heavy. It is productive throughout. Resin, color, and late-flower expression This week the visual changes are subtle, but important. The pistils are darkening and receding. The calyxes are swelling. The resin heads are fully formed and standing dense across bracts, sugar leaves, and surrounding surfaces. This is the part of flower where the plant stops trying to build and starts trying to finish. You can see it in the way the flowers are tightening. You can see it in the way the bracts are swelling. You can see it in the color shift — greener tissue fading into softer lime tones, deeper pistil oxidation, and the first real signs of end-of-cycle maturity beginning to settle in. Nothing dramatic. Just the plant slowly shifting its priorities. And that is exactly what we want. Feeding strategy: now just enzymes At this stage, we have stopped feeding base nutrients and are now running only Pure Zym with water. That is intentional. At week 12, the plant does not need more pushing. It does not need more nitrogen. It does not need more unnecessary input. It needs space to finish. By this point, the soil still holds more than enough residual nutrition to carry the plant through the last stretch. The goal now is not to keep forcing uptake — it is to let the plant naturally use what is already available, finish metabolically, and begin consuming what remains in the medium and in its own tissues. That is why we simplify here. No force. No excess. No chasing numbers. Just enough enzymatic support to help keep the rhizosphere active, assist in breaking down residual organic matter, and keep the medium biologically functional while the plant finishes the job. That is the role of the enzymes now. Not feeding the plant harder. Helping the system stay clean and available while the plant completes itself. Water, EC, and why less is more now Water remains simple. We are running rainwater mixed with recovered humidifier water, plus enzymes only. No pH correction. No heavy EC. No over-management. Input EC is staying extremely soft, around 0.1–0.2, just enough to carry the enzymes without unnecessarily loading the medium this late in flower. pH continues to land naturally around 6.8, and we are leaving it there. At this point, we are not interested in forcing perfect numbers on paper. We are interested in maintaining a stable root environment the plant is already happy in. And the plant is clearly happy in it. This is one of those moments where overcorrection usually creates more problems than it solves. The room is stable. The plants are functioning. So we let stable stay stable. Still drinking = still working One of the clearest signs that the room is still metabolically active is water consumption. Even this late, the plants are still drinking 1.7–1.8L per day, down slightly from the peak (~2L/day), but still very strong for this stage. That matters. Because even though the room looks like it is approaching the end, the plant is still moving water, still transpiring, still exchanging, still functioning. That means metabolism is still active. And active metabolism means the plant is still finishing properly. They are not stalled. They are not fading out prematurely. They are simply slowing down the way mature plants should. That is a very different thing. Climate: stable beats perfect Environment remains essentially unchanged because it does not need to change. Day temps around 26°C Night temps around 18°C RH around 60% Root zone around 21°C CO₂ around 1000 ppm Stable, predictable, and easy for the plants to work in. Could we push harder? Probably. Could we chase tighter numbers? Also yes. But at this stage, the return is rarely worth the extra energy, extra complexity, or extra stress introduced into an already stable room. Leaf VPD remains within a comfortable working range, the plants are responding well, and the room is balanced. That is enough. Not every decimal needs to be optimized into exhaustion. Lowering PPFD for the finish We are also beginning to reduce PPFD now as we move into the final stretch. Again, this is intentional. Late flower is not the time to keep pushing peak intensity into tissue that is already trying to mature. The bulk is built. The structure is set. Now we shift from production pressure into finishing pressure. Lowering PPFD slightly helps reduce unnecessary stress, lowers metabolic demand, and lets the plant focus more naturally on ripening rather than continued forced output. At this point, we are no longer asking for more mass. We are asking for completion. That is an important difference. Final thoughts This week is one of my favorite moments in a run. Not because it is flashy. Because it is honest. This is what the end should feel like: less intervention, more observation. less forcing, more trust. less noise, more patience. The work was already done. Now we let the plant finish saying what it was trying to say all along. Big love to everyone still following this one — the growers, the quiet readers, the long-timers, the curious ones, the skeptics, the supporters, the OGs, and even the haters. Energy moves either way. Might as well keep it good. Big love as always to Zamnesia for the genetics, to GrowDiaries for the platform, and to everyone spending time here watching this run unfold. We are close now. One more calm week. Maybe two. Now we watch. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

gained 10" in the last 7 days. 19" in the last 2 weeks. doing extremely light stress training. just enough to get the light evenly to the leaves. there are multiple colas coming up together. hoping for a decent amount from these plants. im doing a light defoliation each week. changed the way the lights hang in the 3rd tent to give more room to grow and light covers more of the plant now

This week was real great today is day 103 an these girls are all drying out for 12- 14 days ! Then will be ready for trim and cure! Keep your eyes peeled for next week , will have more photos when we get to trimming! Cheers everybody Happy grows🤙
