Both are doing great! Finally got the temperature and humidity corrected enough that the plants are stressing less, and i also increased the lights back to 200W after 5 days. I think they're large enough now to handle more light - going to increase the light slowly over the next few weeks as well. No other issues - haven't had to add much nutrient solution or anything really... ph is super stable in both reservoirs as well. All that being said, I know the reality is that i'm going to run into a bunch of issues now that i've said i haven't yet.

Started defoliating and removing little satellite larf buds, and she’s looking picture perfect! Stoked that I have another seed, hopeful that it’s the same pheno. Feeding full strength and riding it out from here on!

All three girls are officially in bloom! 🌼 #2, our surprise LST candidate (thanks, fan 😅), has now also entered flowering, and is looking strong! #1 has shot up and is clearly the tallest in the tent, stretching like there’s no tomorrow. Meanwhile, #3 decided to skip the gym and focus on curves, she’s staying short but growing wide, even without any training 💪 Overall, everything is going smooth, healthy. Let’s see what these girls bring in the next few weeks!🌱

The run continues nicely, we still had some temperatures of nutritive solution a little high with the heat of Danielle. It drops drastically in 2 days so I will finally finish this growth in the calm one and will be able to begin my bloom on September 24th. I apply hydrogen peroxide at a rate of 0.5ML/L, twice a week as a treatment. The root Rot X is used every ten days when changing the nutritive solution. I put less water in my system, in order to create a wet zone and a dry zone, I make sure that the roots are always immersed of course. As soon as the temperature drops, I will switch to 800 ppfd for the end of growth and depending on the evolution of the plants I may add some sensi grow a and b to increase the ec a little. If you are attentive, you will observe on the tips of the leaves or even on the leaves, spots of burns or deficiencies, it is simply the consequence of the pythium a few days earlier. The last growth update will be around September 24/25.

Nov 20, 2019 The plants are doing well. Gave them and the soil in the entire 5 gallon pots a good drenching with a compost tea, kelp, alfalfa, fish hydrysolate, and molasses blend. I'm also realizing I could be watering these girls a bit more. Being a newby I'm over cautious of over watering. But I'm finding the light airy soil mix I made combined with fabric pots.... the soil dries rather quickly. No signs of under watering, but I think I can water them more. This week I'll start watering a couple of cups daily and once a week give the whole pot a good drenching to keep the rest of the soil (where the plants haven't grown into yet) damp.✌️ Nov. 22, 2019 Well I think the girls are starting to give off a little scent. Opened the doors to the room and noticed a slight aroma of woodsy dank. Put my nose right up to the plant.... and yup, they starting to smell. Nov. 23, 2019 Noticed the front row was growing faster and taller than back row. At the start of this week I swapped the rows, moved 2 Zkittlez and 1 Californian Snow to the back row, 2 Californian Snow and 1 Zkittlez to the front row. Today I started LST'ing the taller plants, 2 Californian Snow and 1 Zkittkez. I hope the other 3 catch up soon. I want to keep these all close together. Nov. 24, 2019 I've decided to keep separate diaries here at growdiaries for each of these two strains. Reason is I can focus on journaling the growing characteristics, experiences both good and bad regarding each strain independently. Also after spending time here at growdiaries, I've realized this will make it easier for fellow growers growing or researching the same strains I am to sort through diaries regarding these specific strains when looking for information. I will still update this diary regularly but it will be general updates of the overall grow, environment changes, watering/ feeding schedule, and anything else this grow experiences good and bad without getting into great detail regarding each individual plant. I have provided the links to the strain specific diaries below. Please look them up and follow along. Since this is my first growing evidence ever you never know what kinda crazy shit you'll see.✌️ https://growdiaries.com/diaries/44659-fastbuds-zkittlez-auto-grow-journal-by-weedwacker https://growdiaries.com/diaries/44676-fastbuds-californian-snow-grow-journal-by-weedwacker Nov. 25, 2019 Sitting here waiting for my windows 10 top update...I thought it'd update this diary. Started to LST the 3 tallest plants... earlier I posted the front row was growing faster than the back row. That was Saturday Nov. 23. I LST'd the other 3 the next day. I'll have more details in the individual diaries... links posted above. Started watering today 6 cups/ pot. This seems about right as I'm getting very little run off and the bottoms of all the fabric pots are wet. I found this Hydrofarm soil moisture/ph meter in a box that was with all this equipment I acquired. The electrodes were corroded, after a little sandpaper on them I think it's working pretty well. That's it for this week. ✌️👌

It's been a wonderful journey, I'm very happy about this lady's performance, she has produced a high quality harvest, low quantity but I didn't maximice the space as good as I should, but definitely a wonderful genetic to grow, the flowrs are super sticky, full of trichomes and the smell is just the clasic amnesia smell you expect.

I did partily harvest the Special Queen the microscope shows some orange/brown trichomes they are not enough to call her ready to harvest but just like with the Painkiller im scared of bud rot and next week will be raining non stop again so saftey first thats also the reason why i removed almost all the leaves, to improve airflow. Honey Cream receives a good amount of fertilizer not sure if shes able to use it all since its getting cold and the sun is almost never shining. I water with a concentrated solution because the ground is already soaking wet. I guess i'll harvest the rest of the special queen this coming week.

What was it like this week? It was irritating. This site is sucking. Upload a vid that takes so long to upload to just have the save sign spin and spin. Then have to reupload. Your admin sucks the bag.

🌿 Week 10: The Final Countdown & The Autumn Fade 🍂 The Vibe: We’ve officially entered double digits! The tent is a jungle of smells, and the air is thick with a mix of sweet pineapple, heavy cream, and that funky cheese undertone. Most of the white pistils have now tucked in or turned orange/brown, and the plants are starting to pull mobile nutrients from the larger fan leaves the "autumn fade" is officially here! The Ladies: Pineapple Express F1: Still the undisputed Queen 👑. Her main colas are rock hard and coated in a sticky layer of resin. She’s starting to show some beautiful purple/yellow hues in her fan leaves as she nears the finish line. White Runtz: The "Chonk" of the tent! 🍩 Even though she the tallest girl is the tent, her bud density is incredible. The frost on the Runtz is next level it looks like she’s been dipped in sugar.(And she is now drying) Blue Cheese F1: My little rebel. 🧀 She stayed compact and "boujee" with her 3-fingered leaves until the end, but don't let her size fool you the smell coming off her is the most pungent in the tent. She’s finally stopped that weird side-branch stretching and is putting all her energy into ripening those dense little nuggets. Care & Nutrients: Feeding: This is the last week of full nutrients. I’m still using the Bio-Bloom and Top-Max combo, but I’ve started tapering down the Fish-Mix and TNT Complex to let the plants use up their stored nitrogen. Watering: They are thirsty! I’m still giving about 1L per plant every other day, ensuring the pH stays steady at 5.5-6.0 to avoid any late-stage lockouts. Environment: Keeping the humidity lower (around 45-50%) now to prevent any bud rot issues since the flowers are so dense. Temperatures are steady at 27°C lights on. Next Steps: It’s all about the jeweler's loupe now. I’m checking trichomes daily. We are looking for that perfect 10-20% amber ratio before we start the final flush. It won’t be long now! Question for the Growmies: Do you prefer to harvest when trichomes are all cloudy for a "heady" high, or do you wait for more amber for that "couch-lock" feel? Let me know below! 👇

Thinking I might pull her tonight! Looks so good! 6/29 pulled her tonight she looks and smells great! Not drying the whole plant this time. I had to cut her before I could move her out of my tent so her branches didn't snap from the weight of the buds. Can't wait to see what she comes out too!

During week 9 the twelve AK-47 plants continue to thrive. All of them have a healthy green color and grow more and more flowers from top to bottom. The plants start to form HUGE colas and I am astounded by the speed of the new flower development. The trichome production is in full swing and the pants get stickier every day. I still feed them following the mills nutrient schedule and they seem to have all they could wish for. The SANlight Q5W-Gen.2 LED lamps are dimmed to 100% (=3 green lights on dimer ON) without the SUNRISE-FADE (=orange light on dimmer OFF) and are at a distance of 50 cm from the top of the plants. This ensures that the whole canopy gets the maximum of light. Very informing were the recommendations from SANlight on their u-tube channel, see here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhLo4Yv8QqfbaNSY6ROeWQ The aroma of the plants is getting stronger now, they have a heavy and mildly sweet smell (reminiscent of sandalwood), which is typical for the AK-47 from Serious Seeds. I cant wait till its finished and I get to try my medicine...😄
