So the flower is a stunning colour and a lovely thick and dense flower , the smell and taste is fantastic , And the high is mild but a real nice euphoric head high and vapes a lovely gassy yet flavourful vape , I really am a fan of the balckberry kush gene , not only is it a joy too watch growing , but the end results are amazing too look at , hold , and vape , I think the photos in this diary speak for them selfs without all the fancy words , I highly recommend this strain and this seed bank as Dutch passion never fail too impress , A massive thank you too green buzz nutrients for all there help support and nutrients and Dutch passion for these free seeds too , I sometimes have too pinch my self that I am blessed with the support and help with free nutrients , seeds , and lights from kingbo , I just hope that I show all these amazing products off how they should be , Some of us are disabled ether physically or mentally and cannot compete with some of the growers on here diariys with the 500 word essays and big fancy words , But this for me is not a business , I do not make thousands of pounds too buy fancy lights or A/C units ect , Growing cannabis is a jail term for me if caught and with no financial gain at all , I turn absolutely everything into oils and tinctures And make my own medicine too treat autism and let me tell you it has given me a new lease of life , I have worked out that a single grow is costing me £500 in electric alone for a 3 month grow , and if I was not blessed with the help of green buzz nutrients and Dutch passion it would be much much more , I do not know people who smoke weed or any dealers if it too sell it even if I wanted too , so what I do is purely for medical reasons and the fear of getting caught , the noise of the fans , smell , and the cost is a real struggle some weeks , but it's all worth it when you know you have bottles of fantastic medicine in the freezer that you know will last you a very long time , Is a fantastic feeling , I really pray the day legalisation is soon for us, But for now I am so very thankful too grow diariys for this fantastic platform and all the sponcers for all there help ,

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

On day 15, I defoliated the girls. The girls are growing up like crazy, they have already doubled their height. Everything is going well, I'll probably have to do supercroping in the following days ...

Fade is coming through nicely. Regretting trimming up some leaves early. Thought id be chopping it down a few days back. Ec has rocketed up to 1.0 after being a bit more thorough with my watering technique. Guessing the plant had a fair bit of salt build up throughout the grow that had really set in. Gonna have to just keep watering like this until that ec really drops off and the leaves all yellow out. Starting to get some solid ambers, lots of cloudy trichomes. Shes definitely almost ready

Week 7 day 3. I stopped giving soluble nitrogen today. 1/2 reduction in soluble pk. Adding solubles in water drops my ph perfect so I don’t use ph down in flower. Now today I start adding a little ph down as the 1/2 strength soluble pk brings water to about 7.4, so reduction to 6.9

3/14: Came back from a 4 day vacation to a lot of dry, wilted, dead leaves on Amnesia. Trainwreck is super starved as well. My automatic watering system didn't kick on, and the humidifier ran out of water within 24 hours, so there's that. It may be for the better though, as the PH of the nutrients had risen to 7.5. I tossed that mix, and made another 2 gallons of half strength nutes, molasses and epsom salt. I watered them both to runoff, and now I'll wait for Amnesia to prioritize which leaves she thinks are worth saving, and then I'll defoliate the dead ones. Hopefully trainwreck will just bounce back to green. She needed to be defoliated anyway, so this situation makes it easier for me to find the dead leaves. Edit: Came back to feed the last of the nutes and decided to pluck the crispy goners. I found that pulling the leaf stem downward will make the most dead leaves fall right off, allowing me to test a majority of the leaves and give Amnesia a major haircut. Luckily I left a lot of leaves from prior defoliation, as Amnesia REALLY sucked them dry. 3/15: Amnesia looks no worse for wear than last night. Trainwreck as well. Went ahead and pulled as many dead leaves off Trainwreck as I could. Some leaves were a mix of crispy brown and healthy green, which I think is pretty goofy, so I avoided taking any green fans but removed the crispy ones. The colors of the leaves around the buds are really fun to look at. 3/16: Amnesia is starting to SHED her dead leaves, allowing me to pick the leaves with almost no effort. I tested as many leaves as I could, giving another haircut. I would say this isn't a good thing, but since it's my first grow, I'm rolling with it. As long as Amnesia keeps the buds and its nearest leaves alive, it will slowly grow, albeit stunted. I'm not sure if this condition will cause it to finish sooner, but I'm going to need to watch the trichomes under a microscope every couple of days just in case she's ready for harvest. Trainwreck looks about the same as it did before. No new leaves are ready to be removed there yet. 3/19: Amnesia is still shedding leaves, but also bulking up. Trainwreck is slowly bulking up, and turning purple as well! Going to keep an eye on Amnesia's trichomes. Edit: because amnesia is yellowing so much, and because it's been 5 days, I'm going to feed both plants a quarter strength nutrient mix just in case I've been overfeeding them somehow.

2/4/24 - Day 90 - Hello and happy water change day! For sure on the back half of the grow. She's getting bigger everyday! The buds as growing and getting more dense. 2/6/24 - Day 92 - GTFOut of here. She's not showing any signs of distress yet, she's still hulking! Those apples are getting bigger by the day! 2/9/24 - Day 95 - Hello all! Everything is going so good. The buds are getting bigger and the smell is honestly CRAZY. The box does a great job of keeping the smell low. But as soon as you open the box get ready. The whole block is smelling this for sure. I posted a video of me swapping out the D nutrient. It's such an easy process it takes more time to unbox the nutrients than it takes to install them. It's about 5 maybe 5.5 seconds to install. Watch the video to see the process! 2/10/24 - Day 96 - The trichomes are starting to get much more cloudy. Still not a lot of amber. She still is not showing any signs of going dead. Her leafs still look really green/purple.

So this was quite the productive week..! They grew enough after the topping for em to bend over. First step to ScrOG has been done and I'm quite happy with the results 💚 Next step is the screen of course! Then let them full it and switch em Just a reminder.. I'm growin 4 plants in a 120*120 so a little patience would be required if you, like myself, would like to fill that space up ❤️💛💚 One day I'll fill it with just one plant 😆😆

2024-07-29 Show must go on. same for the Outdoor Tangerine SowF1 Fast. I can see signs of Flowers, so next week she will be officially into Floweringstate too. she stretched heavy and spreaded vertically like a folding Fan super structure. and the harvested Plant stands outdoors, too. i look if shes revegetating. she gets water and attention. BREEDER INFO Tangerine Snow F1 Fast Feminised is a 75% sativa, four-way cross of (Boost x Tangelo) with (Lavender x Power Plant). This Fast F1 hybrid is bred from Cali genetics and boasts great citrus terps, high resin production for extracts, high levels of THC, very good yields and excellent mould resistance. Tangerine Snow F1 Fast can be grown indoors as well as outdoors. Indoor flowering times are between 8 - 10 weeks while harvest time in northern latitudes is during September while in the southern hemisphere growers will be harvesting during March. Recommended climate regions are hot, dry, humid and warm. These are tall, semi-branched plants that grow in excess of 200cm and display a high degree of vigour with very good uniformity. In common with many other heavily sativa-dominant strains, Tangerine Snow F1 Fast offers excellent resistance to mould as well as to plant pests and diseases. The combination of citrus terps and plenty of resin makes thi a very good extract strain with the 'washing' method delivering very good yields of hash. The citrus terpene profile is reminiscent of mandarins and tangerines and also has sweet candy notes. THC production has been lab-verified at a strong 24% while CBD is low. The effect is uplifting and energising, perfect for use during the day and early evening.

02/07/2026 A new week and the last week of veg. The stretch is just around the corner. So before hand, I did a tiny bit of trimming. Just the main stem fan leaves and a couple lower hanging leaves. I also took the lowest branch off. It wasn't gonna make it anyway. She's still super full, but has plenty of open space for air flow. I'll be increasing the light intensity at some point this week. However if she starts to stretch like I expect, I shouldn't need to increase the power much. I'm just trying to get to the bottom of the canopy. Currently she's short enough. So all the light is reaching. But when the stretch starts, I'll need a deeper penetrating light source. Mine. Turned up. I'll also be changing the nutrients out at some point this week. I'm pretty sure we start transitioning from grow nutes to bloom nutes. Adding in some bud ignitor, bud factor x and big bud in small doses. I'm just waiting for the bud ignitor to come in. It's absolutely frigid outside today, so the environment in the tent is off. The humidity is fine, but the temp is low. And I already overheated one heater. Hopefully the other one gets the tent back up to snuff. Once that happens, the devices will level off finally and run at low settings if at all. We just gotta get there. As for her looks, she looks full and vibrant. Beautiful green color. Super strong branches standing straight up. S couple of them are starting to spread out now, but the majority of them are standing up close to the main stem. They are too thick to use the bud clips and I don't have tie downs, so it's all natural for her. Maybe a little push down on the top just to get the lower branches pumping. 02/08/2026 Looking good today. She is really starting to look like a little fat Christmas tree. Still no training though. The branches are long enough, but too thick. So I'm still waiting for the stretch to start. Although, I'm pretty sure it started already. Maybe. It could be a couple more days. The water is low. I was thinking about topping it off, but I'm changing it tomorrow when my bud ignitor gets here. I think that's what I'm gonna do. Either way, I'm waiting for tomorrow. She might need a gallon or so if I were to top her off. I'm not sure now. Maybe I should top off. I will say that she is hungry. She's sucking up all the nutes in the water. She'll be fine. When I swap the water out, I'll make sure to give her enough food. However, I don't really know what she needs for nutes. Maybe 550 ppm? She's drained the nutes down below 300 ppm from 450 ppm or something like that. At least she's not overfed this time. The fucking environment. No matter what I do, it just stays fucked up. There pardon the language, but it's definitely needed. So I set the humidity ton55% now it's stuck at 52%. Where yesterday it was at 57% with no problems. I don't get it. And the temp is just low. AGAIN! It was 75° yesterday. WTF. 02/09/2026 I still haven't decided what to do about the water change. I'm definitely doing it today, but I'm still waiting for a nutrient to show up. I can't decide if I want to stay with the current feed or start the transition from grow to bloom. I think I'm going to start the bloom nutrients. Just at a really low dose. So I'll be adding big bud, bud factor x and bud ignitor. We'll be keeping the voodoo juice, Tarantula and Piranha out for the rest of the run. She looks absolutely amazing. Beautiful vibrant green, thick branches and side branching coming out everywhere. She's definitely gonna be a bushy one and I'll need to defoliate a good amount. That's ok. She's healthy enough to take a pretty good hair cut. But I won't be doing so until after the stretch. I moved the humidifier around and put a hose it came with on it. So now the humidity is put in above the canopy. Hopefully it keeps the humidity in check and not constantly running. The temp is also kinda good. So no complaints there today. I also took measurements. She's 14" tall now and about 21" from the light. I was considering lifting the light up and increasing the intensity for a bigger footprint, but I don't think I need to quite yet. I'm thinking in the next couple of days I'll need to adjust it anyway. Especially because of the Apple Strudel which is 16" tall and only starting to stretch now. She's gonna be a beast. This little lady won't be small either. I don't think she is beast material though. Well, who knows maybe she is. 02/10/2026 So instead of swapping the water out today, I topped off with a half gallon of the new stuff. She's drinking about a half gallon a day, so I'll continue to feed the normal dose but in half gallon intervals over the course of the week. Then I'll change out the water with the regular dose. Regular as in 1/3 dose from what the manufacturer says. It should be fine. Update: I decided to swap out the water. Lol Readings: pH: 5.8 EC: 898 TDS: 450 Temp: 64.7° We will have to see how she likes this mix. A couple hours later: So far it looks good. I'm not exactly sure what to look out for. According to both the Advanced Nutrients app and the FastBuds autoflower schedule, I'm perfectly in range. Anyway, she looks fantastic! Beautiful colors. Strong side branching. Best of all, it's starting to spread out. So more and more bud sites may be grown. I'll just have to cut some select leaves after the stretch. We'll see how it goes. I have a good feeling about this plant. Not sure how big she'll get, but her buds should be POTENT. 02/11/2026 So I forgot to add an ice bottle last night. Now there's big bubbles on top of the water and on the roots. Not really sure what it means, but both plants did it. This one and the Apple Strudel. Maybe it's the mix with the new nutrients, like bud ignitor and bud factor x. Maybe the water was too warm and I screwed up. We'll find out at some point today or tomorrow. I'm gonna have to check the EC and TDS to make sure it's staying the same. If it's raising, I know I have too much nutrients. But I don't think so. I hope it's not another algae bloom. It didn't look like this before though. Maybe a new issue? I'll keep an eye on it. Other than that, she looks amazing. Taking a very nice shape all by herself. She has clear layers of leaves and branches. Directly from the side, you can see them. It's very nice. Don't get me wrong, unless she stretches considerably, I'll definitely be defoliating after the stretch. Plus I'm expecting bigger leaves. The environment seems pretty decent as well. Doesn't seem any equipment is having issues either. Something I'll note is the color of the leaf tips. They are dark, but barely. No claw either. So I'm only noting it. Not too worried about it. We'll see how things go throughout today. It's not like I'm pumping her with like 1000 ppm or anything. It's like 450. There shouldn't be any issues whatsoever except for maybe being a little underfed, but this doesn't seem to be the case. She seems very happy and healthy. Wanting for nothing. She has all she needs. 02/12/2026 Not much to report today. She's stretching and her leaves are all filling out making her explode with growth. She looks amazing. Still growing one main cola though. I can tell. It's gonna be short I think, but the rest of the plant will have caught up by then. I don't expect small buds from this plant either. She's definitely gonna pack them on. But, if this is in fact a blue dream, the buds will be pointy and long. Let's hope these branches grow long enough for a hand full of foot long colas. The environment looks pretty good too. Equipment is running just fine. The water this morning wasn't warm, so that's good. I did however replace the ice bottle. The pH is fine. I haven't taken it, but I'm guessing with the pH perfect technology, it's 6.1 to 6.3. perfectly within range. I'll check numbers this afternoon and report then. Also, from the looks of it, the water seems fine. No films, no smells, just bubbles. I wonder if they make a styrofoam bucket insulation thing. That'd be nice to have instead of always swapping out ice bottles. Oh well. I also have to top her off today. I just checked. Looks like maybe a half gallon? Maybe a little more? I'm trying to wait for a gallon, but the water looks so low. Oh well. I'm still topping off today. Lol. Update: So I added a half gallon of the current dose and the EC and TDS are lower than what they were when I swapped out the water. Am I supposed to increase the dose as needed? But I don't know what I need exactly. I'm pretty sure she is hungry and needs more nutrients, but I don't want to overdo it. Plus I have to figure out a way to not take the plant out of the bucket. She's getting big and cumbersome. Plus with the other plant in the tent, maneuvering around without pressing too hard against the other plant and the walls is damn near impossible. The heater is in the way. Like really in the way. I would need to take the heater out, move all the wires and hoses just to put the reserve bucket in place. I suppose I can pump out a gallon, add more mix and then dump it back in and let the bubbles and top feed system mix it in. I'd rather mix it in by hand, but again, I can't lift the plant from the bucket. I mean, maybe I can pump out the full bucket, dose it properly and then pump it back in. That wouldn't be too bad. 🤔. I might do that. At least with this plant. The other plant has a lot more space to move around. I can lift that one out... for now. She's gonna be big. Anyway, that's all for today. 02/13/2026 Lookin good today. She definitely exploded in growth. No height yet, but definitely filling out. I expect the height to come soon enough. She's only like 15" tall. I need double that. Lol I swapped the ice bottles out. She wasn't warm so that's a good thing. Keep it cool. I'm starting to think that maybe this isn't the stretch or just the very beginning. The upward growth is like a vegging plant. Not one that in a super stretch mode. Maybe I was off by my stretching timing. We'll see. The environment looks good today. Or well, has been looking good. I guess not that it was all that bad, but a little cool. It's fine. I've still got the humidity at 55% and temp at 75°. I think when I start to see actual buds, I'll drop it to 50%. Oh, I won't be turning the humidifier off. It's staying right where it is because the humidity in the house is like 29%. Unless the plants get big enough to start putting off their own humidity. Then, well, it'll just turn off and do nothing except sit there. I'd much rather not use it, but it's ok if it turns on a little bit. I doubt it will turn on much. It still might even at 45%. Readings: pH: 6.35 EC: 777 cm TDS: 382 ppm Temp: 66°
