Fastbuds - Mimosa (2x) 08/27 Coming into week 4 Veg, User error stunted them lightly but things seem back on track. Exhale 365 C02 bag introduced last week to setup for early flower. No signs of concern or any deficiencies. Early flowering has begun *Mid-Week Update* *08/30* Both plants have recovered nicely, and placed under trellis net. Introduced NPK Phosphate Purged Pure Blend Pro Grow *End of week recap* Flowering has begun Stopped veg nute feed Introduced Raw NPK Phosphorus and Potassium

Shitty weather wooooooop, too cold and too rainy. they have been sitting inside mostly near the window with the CFL as support. Not ideal but I'd rather have less bud than rotten bud. That being said they are fattening up nicely. Trich show more milk and the occasional amber (only saw 2 to be honest). Lower nodes are still pretty clear and still have lots of white pistils. I am thinking 1 more week of feed then start the 2 weeks of flushing. Having a hard time watering them evenly with all the LST straps. Expecting a tiny watering can one of these days to get that even watering job.

I've been busier than hell so I'll post this week and the next at the same time. I was able to get an auto watering system set up which has saved my back and knees and really helped the plants I think. I can't recommend it enough and it wasn't hard to do. Cost was under $100. It took some time to dial it in as far as the best flow for each plant but I've got it going 4x daily with a little hand water supplement every few days, mostly in the areas that the hydro rings don't cover very well, especially the outsides. With the watering under control, the only other work I've been doing in the grow is some defoliation to open up airflow through the plants, some low stress straining to pull the growth tips away from each other, and at the end of the week set up the net. They're working their way to nicely filling out the canopy. Flipping to flower now, so I'm making sure any light leaks are eliminated and covering any equipment lights with tape.

Light still on 500w and stretch is in full flow, not put on as much height as the other side of the tent in the Wilmas but obviously due to such a large plant (5ft square in a 20L pot) in a single pot. Day 21 I will defoliate and maybe trim away a few smaller bud sites

Day 73, 25th of November 2020: I like this plant so much and the smell hmmm. Little bushy girl. Well not much to say just wait and see. Happy all good so looking forward to seeing the beautiful matured hatvest ready lady lol. Fertilization is still the same every second day with the rationand mixture above stated. The lamp is on 11.15 min and off 12.45 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -45 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.15 pm.

Incredible smell

Starting week 4 off with a few updates: We lost two soldiers today, 11/25/23, and pulled both of the struggling watermelons from the herd. Lowered the lights a bit as I felt they were a bit too high and to prepare for the real vegetative phase coming this week. DIY C02 bottles bubbling away nicely. Transplanted the remaining girls to their final home (5 gallon fabric pots) on 11/26/23. Used Photone app to dial in to proper PPFD at 350 as I was a bit high. Nearing end of week 4, I’m really starting to see rapid growth. Since I’m going with a SOG for this grow, I won’t be doing any topping but I will be doing some LST to start week 5 with 90 degree LST clips. (I’m calling it the 5x5 LST; 5 weeks at the 5th node pair) 😆

Crece a lo ancho, muy frondosa

Day 59. She starts to stink or smell ;))))) I have flue, getting a bit better and still could smell her today, means she stinks ;))) That's good, bad that it's air, except top bud - rest is worthless ;))) I am starting to doubt that I'll beat 1g/W , need to do around 15 ;))) All looks closer to 5 .... She has time till 24th , then I go for holiday and I chop her ... 150ml 6.3 water in ! Happy Growing !!!

I transplanted everything over the past 3 or 4 days and am just giving them some time to break in their new shoes before I flip them. I got a new bottle of calmag I think the one I was using was old it's been on the shelf for a while. The heat is still a little lower than I would like and now with the bigger pots humidity has gone way up.

Start of week 9. Buds are filling out nicely, but trichomes are still mostly clear. Breeder says 8-10 weeks so im hoping they are ready in the next week. Both are starting to show a little bit of the leaves fading, not sure if its normal or the start of some sort of deficiency. Super strong smell on both phenos. I was expecting alot more in terms of weight but the quality dies look great. Cant wait! 💨💨

Aug 3: still going strong starting the third week of flowering. I’m putting her in the garage at 9 pm, doing the 730 nm far red light to put plant into dark mode 2 h faster, and then out of garage at 7 am. So 10+ 2 h is 12 h dark and 14 h daylight or a 26 h day. The far red light definitely works as a bloom booster and helps the plants finish faster when the sun is stronger. Did morning foliar spray of Extreme Blend and potassium silicate. Aug 4: always some defoliation to be done and I took out all the small stuff that was growing into the centre. If I had a longer season I could have left some of these small branches but I want the energy directed toward the prime bud sites. Also removing leaves makes it more stable in the wind. Yet another growing trade-off. Aug 5: she looks great coming out of the dark garage this morning. Lots of colas with lots of buds 👍👍 Aug 6: added UV lights from AC Infinity. This far north we run out of strong sunlight before it gets too cold in the fall. By adding UV lights, this will make Edmonton in September seem like California in July. Along with genetics, UV light is the main factor controlling trichome and THC production. Adding UV light for a couple of hours per day centred at peak sun (currently 1:39 pm) should help a lot this far north. At the other end of the light spectrum, I use Forever Green Indoor (FGI) 730 nm far red light. This is the third season using the far red light as a bloom booster and it definitely works. A few seconds at dusk is all it takes to put the plant into dark mode two hours faster, and is like getting a 26 h day. Bud ripen earlier and therefore under stronger sun. Both of these lights are low power LED used for a few hours (UV) or just a few seconds (far red). Gotta love science and technology when it allows us to figure this kind of out.

keep forgetting i have this diary going and keep forgetting to keep it updated. these have just been topped dressed and are loving the environment. just starting on the second week of flower.

Day 79 since seed touched soil. Found some bud rot on other strains yesterday, so made early chop for #2 and #3. Both needed time, #2 needed like 3 more weeks, would be huge ;))) Day 112 since seed touched soil. last one is done. Ganja Farmer 2024 project is over. Happy Growing !!!

11.07. Wedding Cake 1# Day 77# Wedding Cake 2# Day 71# Today is the end of the eleventh week for the plants. There were storms all week and with the fact that they spent almost the whole week under stress (they were also under heat stress a couple of days before), I am certainly satisfied with the progress. On Tuesday, they were watered for the last time, with clean water, then it rained, and the next day it rained all day, since then they have not been watered, as soon as the soil dries I will feed them. Below in the table is the food that they received last time, but it is included in this week, and I introduced that as well. Stay High and Keep Growing!!!

She got flipped into flower on day 32, has caught up to the others in height and even overtook one plant. The cola I stuck back on is a lot shorter then the other 4. Back soon. Take it easy.

5/12/2024 happy Mother’s Day to all the ladies and buds 5/15 super frosty sugar leaves. I can visually see them standing, that they are so tall 5/18 end of week 4

I am giving half strength nutes every 3 waterings...they are all getting different doses because they are all at different stages...I will be getting a bigger and better light after this grow...I am a first time grower I could have made this 3 different grows I guess...However I would like to make this diary strictly for the purposes of showing the results from a newbie growing BOMB SEEDS with a whole lot of love and care and very little knowledge...I am thinking about cloning the Bubble Bomb and plan on letting her get super big before I switch her light schedule...I got my BOMB SEEDS directly from them not a seedbank...They deserve the credit for anything good going on here...like the fact that my side branching has side braches that side branch...Its all Bomb Seeds genetics and as far as I can tell they seem to be BULLETPROOF!!!!
