Welcome to week 6 of the FastBuds LSD-25. I'm a little concerned that she's not turning purple. Other LSD-25 journals the color comes in a little later. Another concern is brown spots on the leaves which seems to be a calcium deficiency 😰. I've already tried to correct the issue by bumping up the CalMag to 4mL/gal and getting the ph down to 6.2. Some defoliation by removing leaves that are covering bud sites. The training on her is pretty good, kinda level canopy, and good light penetration. A longer time-lapse will be setup 👍 stay tuned for the next update. Happy holidays and happy growing!!! Note: add Dolomite lime to soil to provide Calcium and Magnesium 😉

They’re getting going! The stretch is over (phew they tend to get long but remained shorter than the last two times) and they’re stacking nicely. Really looking forward to seeing how they continue to grow.

Week 3 Day 1 8/26/2023 Water Change Day!! Added: 36 gallons of Water TPS SILICA GOLD-.5mil/Gal Root Drip- 1mil/Gal CALMag- .5mil/Gal GH FLoraMicro-4.2mil/Gal GH FlroaGro-3.8mil/Gal GH FLroaBloom-3.0Mil/Gal ORCA-.5mil/Gal She continues to look Amazing and to be doing an amazing job! Week 3 Day 2 8/27/2023 Topped her a little and took a little from the bottom. The PH was just a little high so I added 4mil PH down to get it to 5.86. Week 3 Day 3 8/28/2023 Topped her a little and just enjoyed her beauty. Week 3 Day 4 8/29/2023 Topped her a little, and started cleaning up the lower 1/3, I am starting with the fan leaves that are touching the clay and some of the lower, lower portion but leaving the stems for when I take clones. Week 3 Day 5 8/30/2023 The temp has been getting to 79-80 the last few days and I don't like it that high. I lowered the light to 29 inches and decreased intensity to reach the 350ppfd for the plants. By dropping the light it should also drop the temperature. I took a few bottom leaves as I start my clean up, leaving the lower stems for clone material for now. Week 3 Day 6 8/31/2023 Found out why the temp had been getting so high in my tent and my grow room, the controller for my other light for my other tent was malfunctioning and overheating. I guess this was the unknown contributing factor to the sudden increase in temp, how am I sure about this, because the light no work no more. I am working with Spider-Farmer Warranty since the light was under a year old, very sad day yesterday was to replace my SE 7000 on my breeding plant which was in week 9 of flower with a VS2000 I am thinking I am going to have to cut my losses. On a good note she looks Amazing full on Growth Spurt happening, I adjusted the PH up slightly to get it from 5.81, to 5.89. Tomorrow Measurements incoming. Week 3 Day 7 9/1/2023 She is looking beautiful this morning! I took off some lower leaves cleaning up the bottom 1/3 but I left some of the Stems because I know I am taking clones in a few weeks. She has grown 5 inches over this last week.

It was a ride! My first ever indoor grow and I’m very pleased with how I filled up the tent, with autoflowers. The buds are looking dense so I’m guessing around 100 grams in dry buds 👌🏻

Serious increase in frostiness, smell in the tent, size of the buds. Amazing fresh, fruity smell. Continuing to throw out new pistals and old ones are turning orange. I fucked up my nutrients this week by using my k blaster instead of my monster flower but seems to be ok. Will get this fixed next week and run proper nutes for next two weeks before flipping back to my k blaster. Still learning so much but feel it's getting dialed in now.

Buds are fattening, hairs are turning orange and the smell is very pungent. Getting some black tips on leaves, any advice would be great. I gradually lowered the ec last week and this week, wondering if that’s what caused it, ph has been dialed. About 2 weeks until harvest.

Solo cup challenge continues to press along. Not much change, plants are in veg, growing and healthy. Still a few weeks before the flowers start so I hope to get a bit of size going before it does. Having fun and really like looking at the other entries in this contest. Check out WildeWeed, Butterstotch and BeanswithPork, silky, larimar, fireman

Ms Mia Wallace went to town and blew the f up. Lots of leaf growth but no sign of bud spots- I know it’s early days tho. Watered with half serving of bloom nutes. Not the ideal nute mix I think, but served me well last grow. Also, as I turned up the light to max power, I noticed heat stress so i turned it down and successfully installed the worlds most eco friendly trellis - one minute- hockey net - next minute - weed trellis. It’s called upcycling boys and girls. I know it’s shit, I’m gonna reinstall it one more 1/4 ass so it’s a full half-ass scrog. Point is, the canopy is flat, pushed that puppy down so there’s more distance. Light back to 100%. Humidity was a little higher under the canopy, even with the dehumidifier, so I put my inline fan back in (was just a booster in-line fan before) and the temp and humidity is dropping. Saw a little bug. Hit the top & bottom canopy layer with light neem oil spray then incecticidle soap. I saw a small critter so I put Diatomaceous Earth on a upside down Tupperware lid. Don’t know if that works. Last time I did a top coat of the stuff on top of the soil - something happened and bad nute burn. Anyone know anything about this? Finally, also tied down a bunch of branches to let the light hit the lower areas. Tune in next time, where I’ll show you how to make a trellis from a pair of spandex Leggings , Peanut butter and a single streamer from the handlebars of a kids bicycle. Keep your buds green, and your grow room clean.

🌿 Woche 6 – Keine besonders gute Woche 👺 🌱 Wachstum & Training Zweite Blütewoche – und zack! Gleich zwei vielversprechende Triebe sind ausgefallen. 😭 💀 Den einen habe ich aus Versehen mit der Hand umgerissen (siehe Video). 👉 Der andere – und das ärgert mich noch viel mehr – war der Haupttrieb der dominanteren Guava. Beim täglichen LST ist er mir abgebrochen. 😰 🔻 Schätzung: Bis zu 10 g Ertragsverlust. 📊 Prognose Das Blätterdach hat nun zwei sichtbare Macken, aber der Rest entwickelt sich weiterhin solide. Vor den Verlusten lag meine Schätzung bei ~100 g Ertrag. Jetzt wird es schwer, die 100 g noch zu knacken. 😕 💧 Blumat 💧 Grade als ich anfing mich an den Blumat richtig zu gewöhnen, fängt er zu spinnen an. Er fing auf einmal an, viel zu trockene Werde zu liefern. Ganz merkwürdig. 😣 Und ich habe eine Woche lang jeden Workaround gemacht den man machen kann. Da war ich doch sehr Endtäuscht... Jetzt muss ich wieder mit dem Finger rein. 💩 💡 Licht & Schatten PPFD wird langsam, Step by Step erhöht. 📈 Aktuell ca. 600 µmol/m²/s. Je höher die Triebe wachsen, desto mehr Licht bekommen sie ohnehin. ☀️ ☀️ Wetter Die Temperaturen sind und bleiben brutal: 25–31 °C Die Lady´s schlagen sich tapfer unter diesen Bedingungen. 💧 Gießen 🕒 Alle 2–3 Tage 🚿 Jeweils 2,2 l Wasser 🎶 The Grow must go on! 🌱

Day 60F The PM on the cheese has gotten significantly worse in the last few days. I think it may have something to do with the constant humidity spikes every time I water. I haven’t been running my humidifier at all in flower so maybe it’s having trouble keeping the RH up during lights on. Just another reason to follow a daily watering schedule. The cheese and slurricane look fucking disgusting and I’m starting to doubt that a peroxide wash can totally fix it. It worked well for my outdoor crop so it should be fine but this time there is probably 3x the amount. I’ll make sure to really soak the buds and rinse them off good. Bbb#1 is flopping over like crazy from the weight. Too late to stake it up now so hopefully it holds until next week. Starting to foxtail a bit but nothing too bad. It is now 100% done and ready for chop. Bbb#2 is just getting frostier and frostier by the day. The purple fade is really coming along nicely too. Might reveg. It is now 100% done and ready for harvest. Black garlic #1 is finally filling out! I can’t believe it. Never heard of a plant packing weight on like that in week 8. The breeder did mention that it packs on weight later but I’m stunned. Taking her to 9.5 weeks. Black garlic #2 is looking very average. Average color, average size buds, average frost, average smell, probably an average yield. And it’s starting to get a bit of PM. Overall not happy. Will be taking her to 9.5 weeks. Zkittlez #1 has pleasantly surprised me. It was a bushy runt in veg but came through. It’s the third frostiest in the tent, super dense, stacked tight, smells great and looks great. It’s already got a nice amount of amber so it’s 100% ready for chop. Slurricane #4 looks insanely frosty even under all that PM. If I can’t wash it off it’s going in the trash. I want to chop this asap but have to cut everything at once unfortunately. It’s 100% ready for harvest. Badazz OG cheese is looking like a decent yielder but doesn’t have much else going for it. I think it still has some filling out to do. I can’t even smell the final profile change yet. The leaves are rotting off very quickly. Taking her 9.5 weeks. I don’t mind harvesting a bit later rather than early. From my outdoor experience, when a plant is picked early it smells like hay and wet grass clippings until it’s been curing for 3 weeks. When I harvest late or at 30-50% amber trichomes it smells like same scent profile it had when growing. Just my experience. I’ve read that the tobacco industry adds calcium and potassium carbonate to their crops to help promote fire holding capacity and to increase the whiteness of ash. Turns out some of the organic amendments I bought last week contain exactly that. I’m going to give each plant a light top dress to see if the tobacco industry is onto something.

Bueno, cortada 😁. Sin duda esta era la mayor candidata a ser la primera en cortar, y además a ser de una gran cosecha. De momento está puesta a secar dentro del armario encima de las luces, a ver si llegamos a los 10/15 dias que me viene operación y así puedo disfrutarla en el periodo de recuperación ❤️‍

Buds are hard as stone. I have never encountered such bads! They are very compact, and have a respectable density of trichomes. Not the best but sufficient. When one plant produces such an insane amount of good flowers, it's hard not to be satisfied. In the meantime everything looks great Except for the mold I found in some of the flowers. I took off about two large branches that were infected with mold. , I cleaned all the mold I could find and lost about 50 grams of pressed flowers that went to waste because of the mold. The final weight of 400 grams is after I threw the flowers with the mold of course. 400 grams of great flowers, I'm just blown away!! Highly recommend trying and growing this strain.

Frostbanger Plants 1-6 Week 8 May 18– 24 FLOWER 4 Nutrients : GH Micro 25 ml GH Gro 10 ml GH Bloom 30ml CalMag 30 ml Recharge 10ml Green sensation 16.5ml Power buds 7.5 ml 5/17 PH 6.3, PPM 1130, temp 71 1ltr each 5/18 PH 6.67, PPM 935, temp 68.5 1 ltr each 5/20 PH 6.67, PPM 1330, temp 68.5 2 ltr each 5/21 PH 6.66, PPM 984, temp 69 1 ltr each videos & pics 5/17 Defoliation of yellowing leaves, feed, pics As I mentioned last week, I must monitor and control the tent environment manually. For the past month, the humidifier has been an issue putting out way too much humidity; often leaving water in the bottom of the tent. In addition, the temperatures are also out of control. I added an AC last week to keep the temperature below 80. I finally determined the exhaust vent is also broken and has been for some time. AC Infinity does not extend the warranty to the replacement parts. I guess that makes sense since they would be in a state of perpetual free replacements. I bought a new one from Amazon that came with a new controller which is different from the controller 69 currently using. I decided that while it is very inconvenient and inefficient to monitor the tent through the day, I would rather finish this Frostbanger run without introducing a new unknown variable. I will continue using 3 circulating fans, the 4” exhaust vent from my 3x3. I have the AC pushing air in and the exhaust pulling air out. This creates a neutral pressure tent environment-neither positive nor negative. It looks like growth has stopped and plant height has been reached. Now is the time for buds to fatten and frost up. All 6 of them are short remaining less than 3 ft. They range from 15 to 31 inches. #4, 5 &6 are showing some fade, particularly #4. Upon opening the tent, a melon smell comes off the buds if I get close, and more stickiness was observed during the process of defoliation. They are living up to the new strain’s name. #5 is the frostiest followed by #2. Wow week 3 of flower and that much frost already. Before FastBuds announced the strain name and characteristics, I was disappointed that FBA2502 could be an indica sleepy strain but the universe provides what you need at the time. The new strain profile indicates a whopping 29%THC with mainly sativa uplifting, euphoric, social effects with sweet fruity flavors which I love and enjoy. In addition, I recently bought a dap press and this strain is frosty and resinous. She will be great to press for live rosin. FBA2502 is FROSTBANGER. Meet Frostbanger Auto, an autoflowering and Indica-leaning hybrid packing a staggeringly high THC content averaging 29%, making this one of the most potent strains on the market. It was created by Fast Buds through crossbreeding Gorilla Glue and Chemdawg, two equally iconic strains. Growers must know that these difficult-to-grow plants will pose specific challenges in terms of environmental control and nutrition, making them best suited for cultivators with some experience under their belt. The flowering cycle is short, averaging only 50 days, and yields are usually around 300g/m². The Frostbanger Auto flavor and aroma are both mouthwatering with a delightful combination of sweet, fruity, and flowery notes. The high is mainly Sativa-driven with uplifting and happiness-inducing effects that lead to euphoria and a general sense of well-being. You might feel sociable and talkative, but too spacey to say something. Following this surge of energy comes a deepening sense of relaxation, leaving you sedated and completely at ease with the world. Due to its potency and these long-lasting effects, medical patients hail Frostbanger Auto for treating chronic pain, stress, and even depression. Measurements: #1 15” #2 20” #3 17” #4 30” #5 31” #6 24” Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Day 49 of flower — Harvest season creeping up Yo — quick GD drop from my 120×80 SCROG. Plants are looking proper: fat, frosty colas everywhere and the tent stinks so good. I’m switching to water-only from here — flushing the last stretch. Trichomes are mostly cloudy with the odd amber speck showing; I’d say the whole lot will be ready in ~7–14 days depending on how the last swing of amber develops. Big realities: my garage is cold & wet (nights down near 5°C, RH ~80–85%), so humidity’s been the constant headache. Ordered a Spider Farmer heater to push intake under the canopy but delivery got delayed — super annoying. To avoid chill I’ve had to cycle the inline fan overnight and run a tiny cabinet heater to keep temps around 15–17°C, but humidity still spikes. Zero perfect conditions here, just making it work — and honestly the cold gave me some gorgeous colours on the buds. Notes & general vibe: buds are tacky as hell — every time I touch a cola my fingers go sticky with resin. Little amber popping on the tricomes now, mostly milky — perfect for couch-locky daytime/ evening smoke depending on how much amber develops. Strain-by-strain snapshot (positions + quick notes) Back-left — Wedding Cake (Portland) Nice chunky cakes, early fatteners. Lots of resin, big rounded colas. Colours starting to deepen on leaves, smells super dessert-y under HPS — heavy trich coverage, finishing fast. Back-center — Kush Crasher The Kush genetics show: purple/burgundy stacks and dense nodal buds. Slow to bulk but super frosty now. These ones are gonna be super sticky and couchy — big terp punch expected. Back-right — AK-47 Classic heavy producer — loads of colas, reliable chunky structure. Stretches a bit less, packs resin fast. One of the more even finishers in the tent. Front-left — Double Krush Longer skinny colas but dense calyxes — nice structure for my net. Terp-forward, stacking trichs well. Good contender for chop in the next week. Front-center — Wappa (PARADISE) — main cola boss She’s my star. Main cola is packing insane weight and is the most consistently chunky plant in the line-up. Colours are gorgeous — deep purples, dark greens, and a thick resin coat. Wappa’s bulking like a champ and will be one of the fattest buds in the harvest. Massive praise for this one — she’s the poster child for this run. Front-right — Detroit Runtz Frost city — tiny sugary calyxes and lots of sparkle. Slightly looser than the Kush lines but super resinous and fruity-leaning. Good final week filler. Quick operation notes Water-only from now on (flushing). Trichomes: ~mostly milky, some amber; keep checking under loupe. Humidity = main enemy. Heater + proper intake/exhaust under canopy will help once the SF unit arrives. I’ll do final clean-up lollipop & remove any really dead/dying leaves before chop. Final thought — for an amateur out of practice I’m stoked. Learned a few lessons (humidity control = everything), but the tent’s delivering fat, sticky, colourful colas. Wappa deserves a medal — she’s the queen of this round. Green vibes✌️🌿

She's changed a lot in the last week and flowers have opened right up! On 8/1 I got some spent hardwood substrate blocks from a local mushroom farmer and crumbled them around the base of each plant, including the autos. Hoping the mycelium can get in there to work their magic in the last few weeks this girl has, not to say she has anything "wrong" with her, just looking forward to a good harvest! Other than that, there's not much to report. She was fed & watered 2x this week since we've still been getting consistent rain and I don't want to overwater.
