01/26 No pictures this week because I'm doing multiple days of time lapse photos. Next week should have some yummy vids and photos. Plants have been doing well. Topped all of the plants between 01/20-01/23, except Berry, which will get topped tonight. Berry has had a very strong rebound. Still very pale in comparison, but is showing strong vertical growth. Vigorous growth of lateral shoots in most plants except for one of the WW. (iirc, it's WW 3) The tallest WW with the widest node spacing has had extremely poor lateral growth, even at the topping site. Likely another 2-4 weeks before mothers will be a clone-ready, based on observed growth. I prefer DWC and haven't done soil for a very long time. It's shocking how much slower growth rate is in soil. A good thing in the long run, because pruning a mother plant in hydro is a PITA. At the same time, I want these plants to hurry up so I can toss clones into a SOG test. My plan is to take 2 clones of 4 plants and flower them all in one 14-gallon tote. 01/28 I had some issues with the timelapse because I didn't set the intervalometer correctly and it eventually went weird after running for over 36 hours and started taking pics every 5 minutes. Things have been fixed and I have add a video from 01/24. I am going to trim some fan leaves tonight and decided to flower 2 cuttings each from the two Bananas.

Harvesting An ELEPHANT !!! And after 118 day from seed and 101 from wen she started her mix veg/flowering process, i cant say for sure but i am starting to believe that this auto world do veg, then veg and flower in conjunction for a wile and only after they a wile they move to a flowering stage completely but thats another post another day lol today was harvest day for this Auto Elephant from SSSC , and let me tel you she is a delight with huge fruits, so big that i normally cut and hang the all plant and for this i did not take the risk of doing that and getting bud rot , better safe than sorry, so what i broke her in smaller peaces and put it all in the rack. Now not much to do than waiting for it to get around 10/15% humidity and jar with it all. This one as you guys can see from the video , this is a full covered in trichomes BIG MAMA and touching her is like touching super glue or something lol i was trying to put all the colas in one picture , but is simply just not possible , they all look great so i selected 4 of them for a true back back ground <3 Thank you Super Sativa Seed Club for this opportunity, i fell like a champion no matter what with this 2 Mamas, much respect on the work you guys did on this Elephant As always thank you all for stoping by for your love and for it all, i fell humble and honored

taking it easy on the nutes.... once the roots Hit the water ....she's going to take off. I got a little too ambitious with the nutes.... and got some nute Burn... but she'll be okay... I flushed her ......very very light on the nutes now.... the new growth is green so she'll be alright.... (((patience young grasshopper))))

I switched her to ph water yesterday. She has a good cloudy trichromes with just a few amber started. So in roughly a week she should be right about where I want to try it at. She still has some flower, even though I messed her up in vegging. I have been having issues across the board here, and there on different plants. Beside that she smells good, and good trichrome layer. I am just letting her finish up, and will harvest on next update. Thank you Medic Grow, Athena, and Fast Buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

I lost almost all my photos on my phone due to my storage being full so I don't have any of my harvest photos but I will try growing this strain again outdoor next year but I'll make sure to start my IPM before I have big issues next season 😅 I would recommend anybody to try growing some gps gg4 s1 the plant was started in late February and wasn't harvested until almost Halloween (Oct 24th) so all in all she did well,zero seeds and I stressed this plant to the max during early veg,late veg and early flowering so definitely has amazing stress resistance

420Fastbuds ApricotAuto/Week5 What up grow fam. Sorry for the late weekly update but was having some technical difficulties. This week has been eventful to say the least. My heater went out letting my Temps drop to high 40'f for a night or two and wow did the plants tell me they're angry. Definitely starting to bounce back but just goes to show the reselants of Fastbuds genetics. I lollipoped and did one more defoliation this week so hopefully flower stage will be smooth sailing. All in all Happy Growing

Not much to report this week. Going well, 4 more male growths. These girls are on autopilot for the next 4 or 5 weeks. Finally done the last big defoliation. I am happy with the amount of tips, I dont mind sacrificing a little size and quality for a potentially much larger yeild. No real stretch to be seen, I guess the scrog is to blame for that. A side note, I may have a little bit of a micro nutrient deficiency, iron in particular. I know this is rare but I did miss the iron last week, long story. Its presenting from the top down with choloris near the leaf base moving outwards. I also think I have a slight k abundance at this stage but the plant should take care of that as it begins to demand more.

Lollipop lollipop, oh lollipop lollipop...lollipop. So I have worked my ass off ... again... I have lollipoped every branch.... I know week 4 /5 wtf .... I know stupid... but it is to combat the PM.... I'm fucking trying everything..... thank God I harvested that Critical Kush because I'm smoking it roughly dried.... and that really helps me forget about how I fucked this bitch up. But honestly she smells wonderful. So it's just colas. She I almost hollow on the inside... I got more at the top but .... I might be done... the K excess continues.... I have flushed probably 200+ gallons over 2 weeks time.. and she doesn't respond.... I believe the roots in the pot are different from the roots that have entered the ground underneath. Leading to my problem. 4 weeks left max .... I want to harvest early.....

I suspect that my 1st and 2nd Frostbanger went into early flower, due to not having a divider in between their roots (I forgot) and they’re in the same 35 gallon bin, the 2 frostbanger in 40 liter grow bags,,much larger and just now beginning to flower. Right on schedule.

Got the girls under the new xs2000 from viparspectra. I really love the style of this light! Check out their black friday sale here. https://www.viparspectra.com/collections/xs-series Day 14 for the gutter hoe grow show. The color was looking a little light so I upped the maxigro to .5 tsp and gave them a little calmag. The biggest challenge this week was not topping the plants. Letting them grow without topping isn't my style. I chose not to because these girls are going to be competing for light and space with some monsters soon. I will probably have to lift them up to get them even with the bigger plants. I expect them to start flowering in a week or so since they are on 12 12 lighting.

Strain was easy to grow. Had some herms but since I only have 2 plants I was able to pinch the balls off. Buds have no seeds and are a strong smoke. Really hits the lungs.

Week 5 : Colorado Cookies in Biotabs These have completely blown up, doubling in size, ripped up the metal hooks i had them in like it was nothing, they're liking the extra light, pushing out leaves and loads of flowering colas . i did take off one leaf that was throwing shade, but apart from that only LST every now and then to keep it under control and hopefully get a bigger yield. Mixed my beneficials with my micro, that's 14gs of powder for 900ppm , but i'm not worried because this is not "dangerous ppm" only some micro. They're starting to slurp it up : one extra watering a week that 3x 3 pints ! used some co2 enriched water only twice, i didnt dare put it in with the beneficials even though i know co2 as a soluble gas will not penetrate the cell walls of any of the organisms (that means it's safe!). I'll get some full frontal pics of the ladies next week, so get your lube out ! spraying twice with the micro and the kelp this week, not really following up on the co2 sprays because i eyeballed the first spray and now there's actually a bunch of residue all over the leaves, so gonna try and figure that out ! suggestions welcome ! 🚀
