Still fighting the heat, added a stronger bottom vent, managed to stabilize the temp to 25C. Relative Humidity is still a bit high, specially when opening the tent in the morning and at nighttime. AC working strong. Started taking PH measurements, though not very accurately (chem test). Apparently my mix of 2:1 Brita/tap water was good, the water in the tap is very alkaline (>8), the filter reduces the PH nicely. I read that Brita also filters out CalMag, so I've added a little boost. I'll stop using the greengro nutrient next week, I think it's Nitrogen level is too high. I received Johnny Green's Greengro in a grow deal, the other nutrients (except CalMag) are from the same line.

Looking ok stretched alot so had to add some caines to support the buds. Done quite alot of defolatin as ther were just many leaves covering bud sites and only using 1 600w so have spaced closer together for more light. Still feeding them doff tomatoe feed and had no signs stress. Goin to add some pk next feed.Had some fkin heat so plants have alittle heat burn so had to higher light alittle also alittle wind burn Owell updates to follow

The final week for both grapefruit by Fast Buds I have given another generous feeding of a compost tea to ensure all the microbes are at their full strength before the flushing begins next week. Both are frosting up nicely and showing a little stress from the light, bleaching the top colas and causing some foxtailing. I’ve increased tent air flow, reduced temps and will leave it at that. Trichomes ate quickly clouding up so I’m giving extra attention to time the chop right, my prediction is that it will be in the next 2 weeks. Thank you as always for taking the time to look through and read the update 🤓🙏👊👍✌️

With the new netting up, I switched on the red lights along with the blues to help the plants stretch a bit to reach through the screen. It looks like it is taking effect, so late in the week (Friday) I trimmed some of the lower branches. Last week I FIMmed Zoe and Grace to give River a chance to catch up, and I expected 1 of 2 results: 1) FiMming will encourage growth in the cut plants causing them to grow taler than River, or 2) Things will stabilize and River will be on par with her siblings. But instead, I discovered a 3rd result: River is continuing to grow bigger and thicker each day and is even taller and fuller than her sisters. In addition though, the trimmed plants are developing nice, strong, sizable leaves, and most of the new growth is coming from down below, rather than near the top. Oh, and this week I added a new camera (Wyze) to the time lapses so I can take my pro camera out.

Shes growing well so there isnt much to say really , I've adjusted the lights to be 12-12 from seed so we can see the results we get , I've also adjusted the height of the lamp to its proper height I was scared to burn my little baby but shes taking it well and growing nicely ! Thanks to everyone that stops in to the diary's ! A special thank you goes out to all my followers that come in weekly and daily for them updates keep on keepin on guys and stayed tuned for more action ! -Happy Growing!

Unreal how resinous the orange sherbet is. Smallest plant I've grown. Only 2.5oz on the dot. But top shelve for sure. Smoke some dry sift and its a hitter. Pupil dilating upper speed powder. Odd but grest.

Update14/09/20 - Most of the girls afe growing nicely. 1 of the blueberry's is challenged (Pictured left). From sprouting there were a few mutations to early leaves. 1 leaf began to twirl as though re-vegging, branches were very short and growth very slow. All other plants growing nicely. Ph 6.0 Humidity 50% Co2 Water temp 22c Day temp 24c Night 18c. With the Blueberry, I decded to top at the 4th node. Branches were small or really almost non-existent. I also gave it the 'Kyle Kushman' Chiropractic proceedure, by firmly squeezing the branches (similar to super cropping although no bending just popping inside of branches, as branches are way to small to properly Kyle Kushman so I tried it this way) to hopefully form knuckles and push energy up into the lower branches, and together with the topping will hopefully prove a great idea and really bush out the bottom branches and strength the over all plant. I am aware that this may push the plant into flower, although going by my previous grow (2nd Grow diary) my Auto Blueberry has been slowed in growth by 2 weeks by topping and lollipopping in mid veg, so either way it's OK which way it goes "Flower or slowed growth. As long as the plant can have an opportunity to grow at it's full potential. I know this type will give the plant the right direction to place its energy to grow properly. (The plant needs help) 14/09/20 - Defoliated and light LST bending branches out lightly. 16/09/20 - White widows, Blueberry OG & Brooklyn Sunrise have begun to show signs of sex, exactly 5 weeks + 3 days (Day 38) from Seed for the Glueberry, 1 x White Widow & Brooklyn Sunrise. 2 x Blueberry & 1 x White Widow is exactly 1 week behind 4 weeks & 3 days (Day 31) Continued with LST with bending only for training. Blueberry that was topped is progressing nicely although still very stunted. I'm OK with that as all others are growing nicely. * The structure of nodes etc on White Widow, Glueberry, Brooklyn Sunrise & the Blueberry left untouched is awesome! Works well for LST. These WW, BS strains in Kratsky are really bushing out with branching & leaves everywhere, as opposed to the Glueberry & Blueberry is well structured with the perfect amount of branching to leaves, with very little LST *

Genera gran resina y engorde a la vez

Edit soon

Ho rimosso tutti i gangi che tenevano fermi i rami in modo che la pianta si sentisse libera di crescere in altezza, va che una meraviglia da vicino si può già vedere una quantità di tricomi non indifferente...unico problema una cavaletta che ha mangiato alcune foglie ad alcuni rami e appunto a rallentato quei due rami....ma secondo me andrà tutto bene, certo se avessi avuto un posto al chiuso e darli qualche ora di più di luce sarebbe stato magnifico, ma così mi devo accontentare della luce solare.....( Che in Puglia e abbastanza)

The girls survived. Always the biggest stress in the beginning. Getting sprayed with water twice a day. Gonna do the first watering soon. Hoping for growth!

Day 92 – Standing strong and swelling up! After a week of mixed conditions here in Ramsgate — cool mornings, occasional coastal winds, and sudden heat bursts above 24°C — this plant is showing what true resilience looks like. Despite last month’s stormy surprises and some early stem stress, the FastBuds genetics continue to shine. Buds are stacking beautifully, calyxes are swelling up, and there’s a confident push toward the final phase. You’ll notice a bit of natural fade on the lower leaves — a classic sign of energy being redirected toward flower production. No intervention needed. This is outdoor minimalism at its best: nature-led, no bottles, just strong soil, sunlight, and observation. Each cola is now forming a clear crown, and internodal spacing has tightened. The smell is still subtle outdoors, but richer day by day. I’m continuing with a hands-off approach — just water, light breeze, and the occasional nod of respect to Mother Nature. To anyone growing outdoors: never underestimate what the sun and time can do with the right soil and genetics. 💚

This was a very stressful week as there were too many variables at play all at once; even my camera refused to cooperate for the first few days. The freshly transferred plants were starting to droop and I was unsure if it was transplant shock, nutrient burn, or because of the incomplete grow tent. My first batch of nutrients were mixed into a gallon bottle and was weighed by a friend using his scale; this set was enough to last weeks. For this new batch however, I didn't have my scale and used the table spoon as my measuring tool; needless to say when my TDS meter finally arrived, both runoff and the remainder of the mixed nutrients read 2800. Fortunately my light setup seemed to be inefficient still and the plants weren't drawing much nutrients and only ended up with a very light burn on the older growth. All pots were flushed back to recommend levels and the light lowered until the lux values read appropriate. This week ends my daily comments and I'll stick to this end of the week format going forward.

Week 3 of Flower we focus on Defoilation. This really is going to test the genetics response to extreme stress. Performed a 5 day Schwazze to minimize stress instead of ripping off most leave in one day. Plant seem to have reacted well so far. This technique has really opened the canopy and expose many bud sites. Preparing for a top feed at start of new week.

Progress: starting to harvest. Update 10/9, we’re in the amber zone and will cut it all by 10/11. Marathon OG; 1 plant. Started harvesting earlier in the week, gradually taking down mature or at risk colas. The plant is probably going to be my best this year. Yield so far; I harvested 75%: fresh froze 2gal and cured 9oz. Theres another 4 oz still on the plant. 75% good to high quality dense and resin packed buds. This yield is for a 20 gallon plant. Lava cake: 4 plants (3-15 gallon 1-5 gallon). The main colas were mature with some amber. The sex pods were rotting on some so I took them down first to prevent any bud rot. Colas were mature (mostly mains) with hard dense buds. I took 30% and left about 70% still growing. I froze 4 gallons and harvested about a pound or so, hard to say yet as it’s just starting to dry. PPP is still waiting to be harvested. Funky looking purple bud stacks. Still some clear trichomes, mostly milky. Cant wait to try it. I ran some bubble hash: I ran some fresh frozen marathon OG as well as a pound from last years harvest. Bubble Hash Yield; < 2 0z 3g rosin quality A+quality (use a rig!) 10g high quality (dark rosin hash) A- quality 38g hash C quality (smoke in joints, like OG hash, but cleaner.) 10g low grade d/e quality (edibles or press for rosin) The fresh frozen produced the high quality rosin, but at a lower yield. The dried and cured pound from last years harvest produced so much ( an ounce and a half) it clogged up my micron bags. It’s good hash, but nothing like the fresh frozen rosin like hash. It’s gonna be a busy week of feeding, scoping, harvesting, drying, curing and trimming. The lava and the OG smoke great. The marathon og is so far my favorite to smoke. I have not tasted the purple push pops yet…..

Läuft. Etwas entlaubt. Warte auf gelbe Blätter und mehr bernsteinfarbende Trichome.
