Heute beginnt die 3. Woche der kleinen 3 Z-Up's von FastBuds. 💚 Die Ladies waren inzwischen bei Ihrem ersten Friseurtermin und wurden getoppt. ✂️ Sie haben sich seitdem bereits gut erholt und wachsen bereits wieder. Ich freue mich bereits sehr auf die kommenden Wochen. Genießt euren Sonntag. 🌤️

Another cold wet week. Witnessed the spiderlings band together for a few days, web making at night. Then one day the wind picked up and they all disbanded, stretched out their silk and flew away all over my yard. It was such an incredible experience to watch! I should have an army of Orb weavers come flower time. Did another top dress of compost mixed with 70/30 Gaia Green AP/PB, maybe 20Tbsp. When I pulled back the mulch I got to see all the soil creatures and roots consuming the material, this really does help build extra root zone over time. Minor defoliating, I'm keeping nodes 1, removing 2 and final top at 3 (next week) to keep her spaced, then let her stretch and trellis. Should all help fill in the canopy.

Finished week 9 and cut them down... It was a forest.

Another week down, progressing, just starting to show some orange'ing up on the hairs. Stressed it a little with a bit of a crack in the main stem w/ some LST that wasn't so L but it seems to be superficial enough.

Week 2 Day 2: Things are going well. We had some high humidity and a little algae, so I increased the fan level. There was also some slight bubbling in the leaves which could be due to the humidity, so I'm keeping an eye on that. Otherwise, things are looking good. Planning to water today (8/8), and keep an eye on them for the rest of the week. Feels like patience is key at this point. Will need to decide on feed schedule soon, and will be PH'ing my water for the first time today. Will also continue researching LST methods. Week 2 Day 7: Still struggling with high humidity. My grow is in my basement, and in the summer it stays around 70% RH. When the tent was at 80% RH I opened the vents and had the airflow running pretty high. I couldn’t come up with any other way to decrease it, so I went to Facebook marketplace and got a dehumidifier. Ran it overnight in the basement yesterday and the humidity has not really changed and there were barely droplets of water in it 😭. I’m going to try putting it in the tent if things don’t change.

Week six I’ve been watering when dry and I bumped the nutrients up a bit. I started to prune some of the lower fan leaves to help with the bud growth. Everything looks to be going well with Billy by Mandy still seems to be pretty small.

04/04/2026 Water change day! We're adding Overdrive and taking out big bud. I. Pretty sure she has 2 to 3 weeks left. I haven't checked trichomes yet. No point when I can tell they aren't ready yet. Just by the amount of white pistils. And somehow I can tell she's not ready. Colors, swelling and water intake. Readings: pH: 6.58 EC: 1214 cm TDS: 858 ppm Temp: 67.8° The environment is a bit wonky today. 73° and 50% humidity. I have a feeling the heat is being blocked by the canopy. That's why the environment is off today. No heat increased humidity and decreased temp. Honestly not sure what to do here. I'll just have to let it do its thing. I'm pretty sure it was from me opening the tent up. Oh well. She does look happy. Good nice green. Excluding the dark color of course. There's a bit of an issue with the rear fan. The way she's moving around the tops has left one of them to fall right onto the oscillating fan. Not to mention the area around the fan is super stressed. Not exactly sure what to do about that. Anyway, lots of work to do. 04/05/2026 Readings: pH: 6.55 EC: 1180 cm TDS: 820 ppm Temp: 70.2° Readings after pH: pH: 6.08 EC: 1190 cm TDS: 850 ppm Temp: 65.5° So we can see that there is a fluctuation in all readings. The EC went up by 10 cm. TDS went up 30 ppm. Temp dropped 4.5°. Finally there's the pH. I dropped it to a reasonable level. Around 5 points. Something I'd like to note. The buckets don't drain completely. There's roots in the way. So there's always a gallon or so left in the bottom of the bucket. After pHing, everything changed. I believe that is just a common pH swing. A little high, but I brought it right down. I'm going to check later this afternoon and see if it leveled out. Hopefully it'll be around 6.1. That's when you know the pH perfect is working. The EC and TDS are higher than yesterday. But I'm assuming the pH was high as well as the water temp. It should be down to about 65° and that would fix the portability of the nutrients. The environment is doing pretty good. Temps right there at 73° the Humidity is a bit high today. 47%. I'd really like it down to 40% but that's probably not happening until this wet weather goes away. Then everything should level out. 04/06/2026 Readings: pH: 5.95 EC: 1158 cm TDS: 823 ppm Temp: 67.3° 04/07/2026 Readings: pH: 5.68 EC: 1187 cm TDS: 836 ppm Temp: 68.4° After pHing: pH: 6.04 EC:1192 cm TDS: 878 ppm Temp: 67.1° After Topping off the bucket: pH: 5.8 EC: 1240 cm TDS: 880 ppm Temp: 65.3° 04/08/2026 Readings: pH: 5.54 EC: 1250 cm TDS: 889 ppm Temp: 63.1° After pHing the jug: pH: 6.17 EC: 1465 cm TDS: 965 ppm Temp: 69.1° Bucket Readings: pH: 6.15 EC: 1302 cm TDS: 927 ppm Temp: 66.7° 04/09/2026 Readings: pH: 5.91 EC: 1288 cm TDS: 917 ppm Temp: 69.4° It seems as though this lady may be a bit hungry. TDS and EC are both dropping. Not much, but I can see a pattern. She wants more. But she's stressed out. The tacoing is real! But I'm not sure it's from the light. What else is there? There's more spots on the top leaves. Definitely seems like a deficiency to me. Along with the tacoing. Which I might add also has tons of trichomes to help protect the leaves and buds. The environment is looking good today. However, the heat must have been on this morning when the light turned on. Oh well. An ice bottle from last night would have done nothing. 04/10/2026 Readings: pH: 5.5 EC: 1298 cm TDS: 528 ppm Temp: 67.8° Reading top off water: pH: 5.8 EC: 1244 cm TDS: 949 ppm Temp:67.3°

Beginning of week... She is doing her thing.. Slowly but surely lol.. Healthy as far as I can tell.. Maybe the reused coco is too reused? Idk. There is a bit of coco/perlite from my first grow in there lol.. Some others too.. But she is still truckin along.. Went up on the Armor Si (Silica) and a little on the FloraGro.. She does look like she is gonna beginning flowering very soon tho.. Pistils are forming slowly.. Much like the rest of this grow.. But she is starting.. I'm not going to start counting flower till I actually see that she is flowering.. Stretching and all.. That's how I like to count flower.. Always seems to line up perfectly when you count flower that way.. Even with photoperiods.. Not from the 12/12 flip because there is still 2 weeks of transition. Anyways.. Another week in the making... Next day... So my Mars Hydro is crapping out. I have to drop it down to 20 inches from the canopy and run it at 75%.. So pissed.. It glows when it is powered off and still plugged in.. And if I turn it on while the power is set to 100%.. It just blinks until I turn it down to 75%.. I can have it set to 75% and it will turn on like normal.. But I need to use 100% power.. And Mars Hydro sucks with responding to emails apparently.. I'm gonna have to buy a new one and return this POS.. Then hopefully buy a new stronger light for my 2x2.. I am so pissed.. Mars Hydro sucks.. The build is amazing.. The components are awesome when they are not flawed.. But damn this is the 3rd light to crap out on me in 2 years.. I do nothing but run them 18/6 or 12/12.. Run 1 fan on top at the driver and heatsink and 1 under toward the diodes.. Nothing different.. I think I'm gonna buy the Wakyme J-2000.. It comes with 2 fans blowing on the heatsink.. Honestly, noise is not an issue to me.. Heat is.. I sleep with all my fans running already lol.. Its actually hard to sleep without them now hahah.. But yeah. It has a Meanwell driver.. Samsung diodes.. Dimmer.. And the fans.. I think it's my best bet at this point.. Fuck Mars Hydro.. They had 3 chances with me.. My Sunraise 1000 (blurple) is like 4 years old and still running strong.. Smh.. Mars Hydro is crap. How did they even get so popular??? I'm sure more people will realize how crappy they really are.. No name brand everything.. Runs hot as ass.. Craps out after 3 - 4 months.. So so pissed... Almost mid week.. I went ahead and pulled a couple branches down a bit.. The canopy is perfectly even.. It looks AwEsOmE! Lol Mid week.. Well, she seems to be doing a bit better than before, I'd say. Normally, my previous autos would be flowering and probably almost finished stretching by now.. Live and learn.. I hope all the Zkittlez Autoflower seeds aren't like this.. And hopefully this strain turns out pretty dank to be wasting a few extra weeks on growth but not getting much growth at the same time.. And I hope harvest doesn't come quicker than the swelling of the calyxes.. But shit happens.. I have Mars Hydro sending me a new driver/dimmer. I sure hope it's just "plug-in" because if I'm going to take this light apart, I'm just going to go with the Meanwell HLG-240H-54B.. From what I was told from LEDSupplier dot com.. The 240W would be better due to the different current. We are still trying to figure out if the dimmer is 0-10V to see if I can just keep using the Mars Hydro dimmer along with the MeanWell HLG-240H-54B.. That would be cool.. Sorry but Mars Hydro sucks.. I bet running a different driver would help alot of issues.. Maybe even run cooler. Anyways.. About the plant lol.. She is doing great.. The stiples are still showing some weird colors on the tips.. Doesn't seem like an issue.. Some plants have the stems change colors.. Some have pistils change colors.. Some have leaves change colors.. Maybe that is just in her genetics.. The pics that ILGM shows, it should be a pretty colorful strain.. Guess we shall see! But she is happy and healthy.. I think I'm going to stop using Hydroguard next week.. Just doesn't seem like it's doing much of anything.. I really only bought it to fight root rot when I attempt DWC which I am going to attempt again very soon.. Maybe after this grow... We shall see... Almost end of week.. Went ahead and defoliated/lollipopped a bit. She was getting too bunched together.. She is nice and opened up now.. 2 side branches stayed pretty short.. Not sure what that is all about.. Flowers are slowly forming at this point. Next week will be week 1 of flower and stretching should begin! She is still getting good light even with the power only being at 75%.. Just have it down lower.. Which I could get away with till harvest.. But fuck that. I ordered a new Mars Hydro TS 1000.. And Mars Hydro is also sending me a new driver/dimmer box to replace the old one.. Going to return the light and I still want to replace the stock driver with the MeanWell.. Trying to get more professional opinions before I attempt that tho.. So far, I am hearing to get the HLG-240H-54B.. The 150H (150W) doesnt have the correct current so I'd have to go with the 240H (240W) due to the output current and voltage to match correctly. Can't wait to try it out! End of week.. So I got a new Mars Hydro TS 1000 in.. It comes with a Moso driver instead of the old Juson driver.. Hmm.. Ok.. Seems to not heat up as much.. The diodes still get hot, but the lack of the driver heat should help keep things cool.. Nice... I am able to raise the light back up and run her at 100% power.. I went ahead and tied the branches down a little more.. There are 2 that are still staying a little short.. But I think it's the way I started the whole LST process.. I should have tied down a different 90° angle instead of the angle I used.. But live and learn.. Wont use that way again lol.. Other than that, the flowers are forming nicely.. Happy happy happy.. Next week will begin flower! Niceeee.. On to the next!!!...

Total yield was 105 grams per plant

Buds looking alright. Leaves have seen better days & I feel like she's dying on me... Swapped the light because my friend who 'claims he's an expert' told me too. Flushed 20th will go for a 2-week flush even with this flawless finish. (if they make it that long) My tap water is 360ppm & runoff is 415 after flush (30+L of PH'd water) I am definitely going to do a 48-hour dark period before harvest with no watering. Anything I'm doing wrong let me know!

Beautiful 🤩

23.02. Tag 62 So! Alle Probleme der letzten 2 Wochen sind erkannt und behoben. Ich hoffe die Ladies erholen sich in den nächsten Wochen wieder. 1.Problem: Die beiden vorderen habe ich leider übergossen. Lösung: Erde ersetzt, Problem gelöst. 2.Problem: Mein PH Messgerät ist defekt und ich habe die letzten 2 Wochen mit einem PH von 4.9 gegossen. Lösung: Neues PH Messgerät, aktuell bekommen sie seit zwei Tagen PH 6.8 damit der PH im Boden relativ schnell wieder steigt. 3. Problem: Gestern erst aufgefallen! Zeitschaltuhr defekt. Licht geht normalerweise von 12:00-16:00 Uhr aus. Eine Zeit in der ich selten vorm Zelt stehe. Licht läuft 24 Stunden durch. Seit wann? Keine Ahnung … Lösung: Neue Zeitschaltuhr installiert. ******************************************* Was sagt uns das? Super ärgerlich aber draus lernen und den nächsten grow meistern 💚💯💚 *******************************************

la plante n'etais pas trop grande, les tete sont collante comme jamais. plus d'info dans le smoke report!

The Sweet Cheese have been building up frost already and we are only in the start of bloom. wicked citrus sour candy smell, i cant wait to taste it! Orange Apricot Glue also starting to become frosty, but is taking is time to go to full bloom, gonna be big, when she for real starts blooming. gave both plants a dose of Calmag, due to some rust spots appearingz

June 28 - They are doing great, We switched to the recommended amount of nutrients for flowering, Also 2 air stones I ordered have come in so now those are on 24/7 with the nutrient water in a 5 gallon bucket. June 29 - Still just growing away, I am still feeding roughly 3L per plant of nutrient water every 24-36hr depending on how dry they feel. June 30 - Totally forgot to take pictures/videos today. I gave them there daily watering and they are still just growing away. They are in flower now I believe! July 1 - Awesome to see this amount of progression. Tons of hairs and a decently even canopy. There is a small smell coming from in the room! July 2 - Again I forgot to take pictures, But as always they are still just growing away. so far so good! July 3 - Tons of growth and they are starting to become uneven. I don't have a ton of time so I think I will leave them for another week before doing some LST or HST. Tons of colas forming, lots of hairs and they are starting to have a heavier smell! So far so good! July 4 - Same thing as yesterday, still growing away, Ive turned the lights up to 100% now and I have removed the SF-1000 as I needed it for another project! (be sure to check out my other diary's which I will be uploading today!

Day36, 37, 38: Seems to be growing a set of leaves per day now. Super growth! Stretching to the top. Day39: I had a hiccup with the camera. For some reason it stopped responding at 04:30 in the morning. I only realized it much later. I still don't really know why, but reseating the data ribbon fixed the issue. Day40: After fixing the camera, I decided to take this view again. The Lady is starting to show some nice growth and this view will show it best. If you look carefully, you'll see that her branches are not green, but rather reddish. Definitely related to genetics :) Everything else is within limits. Plus, the leaves look super healthy. Day41: Here you can see the stem colour better.

Loading... Final week of flowering. Jah Bless

Okay I'm sorry for the lack of updated I'm now in week 10 half way through the week. I started my flush at the end of week 8. These really put a lot of weight on over the past 2 weeks and there looking on point there due to come down with in next three to five days depending on my preference. This strain is ripper new released strain lemon ice 2.0
