Day 58 - 07/02/20 About 70% or more pistils are amber and ive harvested the inner stems of the plant yesterday and today and trimmed it all down to individual buds before putting it in the net to dry for a week :) The inner stems had such thick and dense buds on them that it was blocking some light from the buds on the outer stems and preventing them from reaching full maturity. They are now getting all the light they need for a few more days during the flushing week. I will also be reducing the light from 18/6 down to 12/12 this week as its not possible for me to isolate the plants in total darkness for 72h. I was told that no light right before harvest will mean more THC production, any time i knock the lights back before harvest my buds always look frosty and covered in trichomes. I cant wait until i have a smaller veg tent and another tent so i can isolate the plants for the full 72 hours. Anyways i had a little problem over the last 2 weeks with my PH pen being cheap and nasty, it constantly needs calibrated but still its doing a basic job and preventing more serious PH issues until i get a replacement. i also think i might have flushed the plants at that time before calibrating the PH meter and they were not happy about it :) Everything looks okay now in my tent and im just giving this one only Phed tap water until harvest :) I added a few photos of the Cayenne pepper plants harvest, the pepper plant was in one of my older grows i think maybe my first... could be the quick one diary, with minimal care and a little water i grew some monster peppers, i wanted to give them thier own diary but im not sure how GD would react hahah. so i posted them here, These peppers were all grown under the same light in the exact same conditions as i grow my weed with no bugs 🐜 or problems with mould, id strongly reccommend giving it a go and use up that grow space, especially as its bad for the environment to indoor grow! make the most of it folks! Anyways happy medicating for this week and check out my other diaries if you all get time :) Day 60 - 09/02/20 Added a video of a few buds from the inner stems drying on my drying net. I trimmed the fan leaves off and chopped the tips of the sugar leaves which had no trichomes on them. most of the test buds got all the visible stem removed but i left a few of the chunky tops to dry just to see how they turn out. Anyways im going to flush for a few more days before chopping the rest down and getting it ready to dry :) Keep on growing folks!

6.4.25: FastBuds Mystery Seed #1: She has been topped twice and is looking pretty strong 💪 She has grown vertically, and leaves are always praying. Possibly too much light, so I have turned the dimmer down to about 90%. There are slight bleached tips on a couple of top leaves. I'm hoping to do the same LST with garden wire here very soon. Overall, the plant has nice big, fat leaves. Seemingly lush colour and vigorously growing since the double toppings. Very nice plant so far. 👌 13.4.25: This week has been so busy in the garden! I forgot to take any notes, so I'll see what I can do from memory! 😅 14.4.25: I have been super busy with all the other harvests in the past several days, so this is a little late. FastBuds Mystery seed #1 has been topped twice and the growth has been thick and lush. I watered several times this week, and I used Ecothrive Biosys with dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. I watered about 2 litres to each plant. I have been using wire, clips, and Bio stretch fabric plant ties to LST the plant. The plant has reached the 8 Gallon pot perimeter. The plant is in the first week of flower. I'm hoping to keep the canopy even with my RQS Northern Lights grow as I need to be able to compare the plants accurately for the experiments. I did snap off a branch, again the day after I said I'd be very careful 😖 The plant is very resilient though, and you wouldn't know anything happened at all, minus one of the first tops is missing. Thankfully I topped twice, so I still have 5 tops. Training Techniques used this week are LST and defoliation. I watered on 13th and 14th with the following solution; 4 litres of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 which contained: ♡ 8 ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids ♡ 1/2 Teaspoon Mega Crop Part A by Greenleaf Nutrients. PPM: 1000. 2 litres were given on two consecutive days. I watered in a top dress, which I will add what I used here, but it was another mess up, I'm sure you'll be surprised to hear 😅 Top dress: 4 gallons containing approximately: 50% Canna Terra Mix soil 25% Worm Castings 23% Perlite 2% Organic Dry Amendments, which were; ☆ Ecothrive Life Cycle ☆ Ecothrive Charge ☆ Diatomaceous Earth ☆ Ground Cinnamon ☆ RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules I used the top dress amount for established plants for a pot size of 30L / 8 Gallons. I'm not keen on the soil. I was supposed to get Canna Coco but I got sent Canna Terra in error. It was overdue for a top dress and I had nothing else to use. I don't like it in comparison. Coco is best for my needs. It's much fluffier, lighter, and easier to work with. Thanks for hanging out 🍃 ✌️ 💚 🙂

In the beginning of the week she was standing a bit crooked. I will be mainlining soon and I want her central stem to be strong. So I tied her stem to a chop-stick to do a bit of low stress training prior to topping her. Also hit the hydro store and picked up some Fishsh!t and Recharge. Added that, worm castings and some Down to Earth dry amendments to brew up a compost tea. Gave her a big sip on 3/4.

Hello Growers and Tokers! You ready to sail off into green space in search for some cosmic snacks? This run we'll be taking a look at the Miracle Alien Cookies (MAC) from PEV Seeds. The search is starting off a bit rocky only one of the seeds sprouted so let's make the most of it! Strain description from breeder: Miracle Alien Cookies looks like a cannabis plant coming from another world. It is the paradigm of modern cannabis breeding, a variety that represents everything we want to find in our weed: power, flavor, production, speed and a number of extraterrestrial trichomes. It arose from the combination of an Alien Cookies F2 with the cross between a Colombian and the great Starfighter. In its ancestors we can find the mythical Alien Technology twice, as it is part of both the Alien Cookies and the Starfighter. Its flowering time indoors and outdoors can be considered standard. Indoors usually blooms and matures in about 9 weeks, being able to advance or delay the harvest depending on your preferences regarding the effect. The aroma reminds you of the orange sweets, as it mixes a base of cookie dough with a deep orange background that feels like eating rather than burning. Its taste is citric and sweet, with earthy touches that beg you for more and more… This is the typical effect of balanced hybrids, but raised to its maximum expression. Even if you have a high tolerance to cannabis, you may find it too potent. It rises like a pure sativa, speeding up your heartbeat and thoughts, but the high comes with a significant body charge, so it keeps you awake but relaxed. Genetic Background: MAC S1 (Alien Cookies x (Colombian x Starfighter)) Type: Feminized Sativa 50% Indica 50% THC: 25% CBD: 0.8% CBG: 0,01% Yield Indoor : 500 - 600 gr/m2 Height Indoor: 120 - 140 cm Height Outdoor: 180 - 230 cm Flowering time: 9 - 10 weeks Harvest Month: Mid October Expectations and training method: Expecting nothing but greatness from this strain. I’ve had the chance to smoke this strain before so I know what the final result should be like, let’s hope she comes out proper. Plan to top and LST, widen her out and try to yield a bit more than I’m expecting which is roughly 40 grams. I’m thinking she’ll be a bit picky with the feeding and training so I’ll try to take it easy so she doesn’t stress out on me.. Tent: Dutch Masters 120x240x220cm Lights: 1 x EasyGrow S800v2 1 x Mars Hydro TSW2000 1 x Mars Hydro FC3000 Ventilation: Garden HighPro - ProFan TT Extractor Fan - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProActiv Carbon Filter - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProFan Oscilating Clip Fans - 25cm Blauburg - Inline Fan - 125mm Humidifier: Garden Highpro - Humipro Digital Humidifier - 4 liters Pots: Garden Highpro 11L Fabric pots Medium: Biobizz Light Mix Nutrients: Grotek - Mycrorizo Plagron- Alga grow, Alga Bloom, green sensation and royal sugar. PH down Calmag Measuring instruments: Hygrometer/Thermometer - Govee: EC Meter - HM Digital: COM-80S Hydrotester PH Meter - Vanguard Hydroponics Happy Growing! 😃

Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg. Stuff is growing good in the greenhouse this week. I was in there yesterday putting the longer branches under the rack or tying them down. I'll go back in there today and finish clipping under the racks of leaves that don't get enough light, prime powder mildew places and small sucker branches that take energy away from the growing tips. I added some of the cactus pictures I have growing in the smaller greenhouse. It's 6 foot by 10 feet. They all get good food even though some of their pots are starting to fall apart. I watered the cactuses yesterday and a paper wasp lands on my cheek, they normally leave me alone and just fly around me. But a large queen wasp has been coming to get pull their young from the paper nest so the paper wasps are on edge anyway. I sort of panicked and swatted it away and knocked off my hat too.😧 I bent down to get my hat and the little bugger stung my little finger of my left hand. I guess it's poison didn't go in very far because my finger is barely swollen today. Stupid wasps. I let them stay because they help so much in the garden. I often see them fully loaded with some greenish pulp they have in their front legs that they can hardly land on their nest which is often upside down. This is the last week of veg. It's been a cold spring this year and the plants haven't grown as much as on a hot spring year. Oh Well. Keep Grown Straight. Chuck.

Hallo meine Freunde des gepflegten Grow sports! 💐 Die Damen sind abgehackt und aufgehangen davor habe ich alle Fächer Blätter entfernt noch als die Pflanzen im Zelt standen heut morgen Ach ja wir haben den 26.04.23 nur so zur Info 😂😂 danach habe ich alle Damen also 4stk an der Zahl genau unter dem ersten Knoten entfernt das gesamte ScroG netzt abgegangen umgedreht und wieder an gehangen (bin irgendwie faul diesmal) war die schnellste und einfachste Lösung und somit wurde aus dem ScroG netzt ein trocken netz 😂🍾😂 Jetzt heisst es warten bis sie trocken sind wie man sehen kann auf dem letzten Video überwache ich weiter die Temperatur und Feuchtigkeits Werte! liegen bei 50% rlf und guten 16 Grad, denke mal in 10 bis 14 Tagen werde ich dann diesen Bericht als ernte ein tragen da die Damen dann in die Gläser gehen werden zum curing, feucht Gewicht kann ich grad nicht sagen, da ich sie ja nicht aus dem netzt entfernt habe aber so bald sie in die Gläser wandern werden sie gewogen Ach ja bevor ich es vergesse habe die Basis der Pflanze dran gelassen da sonnst einiges aus dem netzt fallen würde ohne Befestigung. Wir lesen uns dann in ca 14 Tagen wieder wenn alles soweit fertig ist euch allen einen erfolgreichen Grow und bis die Tage 🖖🤘✌️👋

This strain is a dream to grow, if you haven't tried it yet, it's amazing, it's easy, it's lush and vibrant, full of energy from seed to smoke. Great for organic grow styles and a fun plant to grow. The smoke I will update in the smoke review! I do not have words for the quality of this strain. In everything. Grow this and be absolutely amazed by its performance. I had won the seeds with the Halloween give-away but they are a sure winner and a keeper. @SweetSeeds congratulations on a champion auto-strain. I've grown auto's before, only outdoors, but nothing like this, nothing this big in such a short time, and this resilient for not only mistakes but everything. This plant will perform even if you were to mess it all up. Keep to 20 liters grow bags for best performance as you could see with my two plants. One as more developed, although everyone says over 15 ltr makes no difference, with organic coco hybrid super soil, it does. It is the difference in buffering of nutes, PH, heat, and moisture. Way less hassle in the bigger pot and this was an excellent learning curve. This grow started out as a match between Forbidden Runtz by Fastbuds and XL Runts by Sweetseeds. But since the playing field was uneven (pot wise but also heat and fresh air wise), the results do not count in my opinion. But my guess is (since I haven't weighed the Forbiddens) that the XLs for now won. But as I said it would not be fair. We will do the contest again when said playing field is level. For now thank you again for checking my diaries, if you have any questions or comments, always welcome my friend. Big Hug Bud

Thanks @SweetSeeds for the development of this strain. I’m absolutely in love with the color of this one, I never imagined we would see anything other than slight purple. I’m gonna be growing this strain and 9 others at the same time. 3 Dark Devils will be germinated to grow with my 6 Mephisto. I also ordered some Red Poison Auto to do in my next grow. Day 3: I don’t think they liked the ghetto dish setup I have for them at all. Ready to transplant to air pots Day 7: New Grow Room I’m pumped!

The final Week, before harvest! She has some massive towering buds! 2.5 gallons of water is lasting this plant 5-6 days before drying out, and ready for more.. She was harvested instead of being watered!

I’m using KIS organic a soil with fermented inputs and water soluble calcium, I’m using a KNF bloom and FPJ for nitrogen, and aloe for vitamins, and humic and amino acids. NO chemical fertilizers

All the girls have been placed into their final pots 20L fabric. Really happy with the root structures due to the fabric pots - not one root bound plant and all the roots still searching for space to grow. They have recovered from transplant already and are all growing out and enjoying the root space. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We have lost 1 Kushbreath x faceOff plant (Putins punch seed) The phenotype grew too short and bushy to make it in this SCROG grow - I have moved this plant to my auto tent to grow out and train. Both V2 / V3 are both growing really well and cant say either one is better than the other.

11/02/22 another week down. This girl is growing quick. Will continue feeding as needed (about every 1.5 - 2 days)
