Day 70 in soil 😁😁😁 I never thought I'd make it this far tbh! I stopped giving the ladies nutes and have just started feeding phed water, and they seem to have all really taken well to it, some last week showing signs of problems which I think was due to the last feed, minor flush and all seem to be okay I think. The smell now is very strong when the tents open a lovely fruity aroma, touching the buds leaves the hands covered and stinking of a fruity lemon/citrus smell (could live with the smell, unreal). The buds have all started to fatten up massively over the last 14 days, some plants producing some amazing colours, all plants have their own difference however all producing equally as good bud sits and growth. I have no past growing experience but im glad I went for dinafem critical 2.0 after some research prior they have been forgiving throughout my learning stages and have been easy maintenance so far! Will get a few close ups with the jewlers glass tomorrow, thinking off letting them run another 7 days until harvest what's everyone's opinions? Thanks for looking, have a great weekend :)!! *updated new photos today day 74 in soil*

The Ztrawberriez Auto is very resistant has a great sweet strawberry smell throughout the garden. As you can easily see from my grow question, I was initially afraid for the plants due to the high temperature in the greenhouse (as soon as the sun shone ~40 degrees). It turned out that the plant seemed to like it and rewarded me with beautiful buds with purple tips. Growdiaries won't let me delete the question otherwise this would have happened long ago... She finished very quickly and took just 70 days from seed to harvest. All this confirms that fastbuds is the right address for autoflowers. I'm already looking forward to the next run.

Ok, so I forgot to take any pics on week two and holiday time week 3 came up real fast. so we are going to skip over any of the week two details. just watered em and they grew. This week we did a nice little transplant into their final 2gal pots. Fortified with a bunch of amendments and Acti-Sol, everything is listed in the video. Any question just let me know. I don't age my medium at all and I think I should start doing this to avoid some other things, I just find it hard to do it in winter time indoors as soil can be stinky with amendments and I like it to stay in the tent under the carbon filter. Medium I used is 40% coir, 30% perlite, 20% compost, 10% vermiculite and 10% worm castings. Then the amendments are added into that at the rate of 30-60ml per 1Gal of medium. This batch has Gaia 4-4-4, Gaia Insect Frass, Giaia Diatomaceous Earth, Gaia Rock Dust, Acti-Sol Seaweed Meal, Acti-Sol Shrimp/Crab Meal, Acti-Sol 4-3-2, Acti-Sol 4-6-8 and Bokashi. Nice little mix, water it in with a bit of magnesium and microbes dissolved into the water. The bokashi should help break everything down and make a bit of a acidic environment for all the meals and rock dust to become available. Roots looked good, not a dense as some runs but still nice. I feel the soil might be a bit hot so will expect some burnage on them hopefully its nothing to crazy. Will ph down with a mix of citric, malic and ascorbic acids. They are in a rate of something like 50-60%/40-30%/5-10%, its written down in my of my notes just can't find the pad ATM. Also more videos vs anything this week. I like em more but processing them is annoying AF. Side note, my lights timer was on 12/12 not 16/8 so it explains why they went into bloom, switch it back and will top the plants next week one they start to reverse their ways and get comfortable in the new pots. Also got ride of the chive seed start as it was looking sad, plus I got a bunch of European chive varieties in the mail yesterday and want to try them out. see if they really have any different taste and what ones I like better. Till next week.

Flowering started on day 28. I applied a topdressing once with Green House Feeding BioBloom at 1.5 grams per liter Soil. I’ll repeat that in the third week to reach the full dose of 3 grams per liter. I also discovered some thrips, so I reacted immediately by using small nematode sachetsboth on the plant and in the watering solution.

Our Zamnesia autoflowers have been on their journey through the magical flowering period for a while now, this is the second week of flowering considering that autoflowers still flower spontaneously some sooner than others but all around the 3rd-4th week. . ---- The general environmental conditions are good, the heat has increased a bit more but for the first weeks of flowering it is not a big problem, let's remember to never exceed 27 degrees centigrade in the last 4 weeks to avoid compromising the quality of the flowers. If necessary open the growbox but never let it exceed 27-30 degrees where 30 is already a lot. The positive thing is that as soon as the lights go out the change is already somewhat visible and as autumn progresses we will also improve. The humidity is fluctuating but we try to control it with two dehumidifiers when necessary, pushing both of them possibly not into the growbox but directly into the room. (I dehumidify the room and the air in the growbox should also be dehumidified) --- Here we are at very high levels. I have two Blue Cheese one a little taller and one a little smaller and super resinous already now - The autoflowering ones are good but please, try the latest generation F1 Hybrids. Plant, tall, vigorous, healthy really compliments for this strain. It is forming buds super fast only the Sticky Beast is behind it incredible the photos are only at the 5th week and look a bit ... --- Fertilization program - The fertilizers are always Plagron and I'm following the table that I generated on the site depending on the chosen substrate. Create your own card and follow it, never be presumptuous my friend as I have been in the past, follow the card and look at the plants, not all need the same amount of fertilizer. We have come to the time to give a good dose of iron in the first weeks of flowering, already of race life not sprayed but mixed with fertilizers. We then added the power buds to stimulate the birth and development of flowers. ---- https://plagron.com/it - Power Roots - 1ml/l - Alga Bloom - 4 ml/l - Pure Zym - 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal - 1ml/l - Vita Race - 5 ml/l - Power Buds 1ml/l is now added i have to tribute more than something to this bad guy! --- The 100% Organic pack by Plagron can be found on Zamnesia at the link: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11457-pla gron-easy-pack-natural.html --- Now dehumidifier running keeping the range from 45 to 55% // Strain Description // If you were looking for a reliable, versatile and accessible strain, here it is. Blue Cheese F1 Automatic by Zamnesia Seeds uses F1 genetics to produce uniform, rewarding and easy-to-grow plants. This strain stays small, so you will have no problem finding a place to grow it. After just 10 weeks from seed, you can enjoy tasty buds with relaxing effects. - Strain — Get a seed of this fantastic strain - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/10673-zamnesia-seeds-blue-cheese-f1-automatic.html - Growbox and air sistem --- https://www.secretjardin.com/ - Light — P2000 - https://www.viparspectra.com - Music and sound --- I made my girls listen to 432hz frequencies and music from www.radionula.com - Z --- You can find these seeds, much more from the world of cannabis, mushrooms and an incredible series of accessories and gadgets on the reference site not only mine but of many growers ---- https://www.zamnesia.io

I'm not applying any type of training to this lady,she has performed a big stretch in her first week of flower,looks absolutely gorgeous,sometime she es tress a little with heat. However the super soil she's living in and the lactobacillus liquid I make homemade is helping her so much,it's a pleasure to see her every morning

Last week, my pound cake auto plant totally exploded with growth! It's insane how much it's changed. I swear it grew several inches overnight. The leaves are this gorgeous shade of green, and the whole thing looks super healthy and happy. I'm seriously so proud of my little plant baby.

Bienvenidos cultivadores a la décima semana de floración de esta gran cepa con dominancia sativa. La planta está alcanzando su gloria... grandes y densas colas dominan toda la escena; intensos y complejos aromas endulzados dominan todo el ambiente!! 👨‍🌾💦💡🌾 Todavía hay crecimiento en los brotes florales, los pistilos blancos lo delatan, esta semana la planta ha seguido centrada en la formación de flores, absorbiendo lenta pero constantemente los nutrientes de las hojas, antes de que estas caigan al suelo agotadas, ahora, para la planta, lo importante son sus flores, por está razón prescinde de sus hojas más antiguas. Aunque ha cumplido el tiempo de floración (9 semanas), información del banco de semillas, la planta mantiene mucha energía y capacidad de fotosíntesis, para al menos continuar floreando, un par de semanas más antes del corte!! 🤓🤙🤷‍♂️ ACTIVIDAD SEMANAL 💦💡👨‍🌾 Esta semana ha disminuido el consumo de agua de riego, 2396ml, un 24% menos que la semana anterior, debido a bajada de temperaturas y aumento de la humedad relativa, pero además, observo mayor consumo de agua conforme la mezclas tienen menor concentración de nutrientes, creo que los próximos riegos voy a hacerlos exclusivamente con agua, melaza y Microorganismos de Montaña Activados para capturar los nutrientes del sustrato retenidos por varios componentes del sustrato (Vermiculita, Zeolita y Biochar) y facilitar el trabajo de las raíces, creo que la planta por ahora no va a necesitar más. - Día 121. Riego con agua de montaña, melaza, Microorganismos de Montaña Activados (MMA Basic) al 5% y Ormus al 0,5%. Potencio de este modo la inoculación de Microorganismos al sustrato, para que mineralicen la materia orgánica convirtiéndola en humus y además quelaten los minerales del sustrato a la mayor velocidad posible, para ponerlos a disposición de la planta cuando esta lo solicite. Según datos, un centímetro cúbico de sustrato puede llegar a contener hasta 200 millones de microorganismos. - Día 124. Mezcla de riego nutritivo especializado para floración con agua de montaña con Hidrolizado potásico (Humato) de leonardita (Húmicos, fúlvicos, K) al 1%, Biol de Guanos con Microorganismos Eficientes -EM- (MMA, BAL, Ca, Mg, Cu, P... micronutrientes) al 3% y melaza. Nada más por hoy... SALUDOS A TODOS!! 😄 ================================= 🙄☮️👇🙏👌🤛👍👉👉👉❤️💜❤️👈👈👈🤜👌🙏👇☮️🤩🖐️🏻 =================================

08/29/2018 Been a hot week but the girls don't seem to mind,90s in the day 82° at night and sticky,muggy weather. Their leaves all pointing ☝️,lets me know they are happy ☺️ .watered with plain water they were pretty dry pots weight was very light. Will feed and water in in morning sleep well and medicated😎 08/31/2018 Just a note today #1 is very green compared to the other 4 plants, could be potted plants running low on nitrogen? My soil has plenty according to soil test. I know last year's crop in soil was pale like other 4 plants, maybe biochar is helping soil retain it's nutes better? Year 2 for biochar, first year could have tied up some nutes....hmmm? Ps Last feeding today Fox farms big bloom at heavy feeder dose 1/2 cup per gallon, should see nice gains this week! 🙏🙏🙏. Pss. G GTH #4 loosing her smells, #3 smells of Skunk and coffee ☕,#2 minty chlorophyll orange,#1 menthal,skunky but very lite scent. Should I pollinate a branch of each? Oh my God the pressure! Do I have enough pollen? Oh sorry for rambling on just smoked lemon sour diesel and thoughts very racy😀 Got to garden see you next week 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Over the last week I was stressing over overcrowding but I seem to have got this 12-12 timing correct as the stretch has come into play so I’m pretty sure by Friday I’ll have pistols and be able to call it day 1 in flower! I have a nice sea of green coming on now too and as I said I won’t trim anything or top as I want to grow naturally (organic)! If you like hit me with a like thank you buddies merry Xmas! These fastbuds are amazing and have shown why they are a top breeder! Can’t wait.... I’ll flower for Their photoperiodic times and flush as according! It’s all exciting! And anyone following just got to pop out will update my other diaries at around 4-5pm GMT

1.8L with nutes on day 44 1.5L water only on day 47 2L with nutes on day 49 I Did some defoliation, cut some fan leaves and very small branches, I Know its an auto and you shouldn't, but those leaves blocked a lot of light. She's acting pretty weird this week Her leaves get wilt at the end of the day(light cycle) and stay like this for couple of hours and then rises back up. I know they usually drop their leave at the end of the day but this is not the case because its stay like this hours after lights goes on. WOW! shes still getting taller even its her 3rd week of flowering! WTH

Well hello there 👋 thanks for stopping by and joining this journey of my White Widow grow! 💯 So to begin the week I was thinking....should I screw with this lovely girl or shouldn't I....?!?!?! Weeelllllllllll..... I just could not resist and dove right in lmao!!! Now in the new pictures for the week I really hope I've done my research and try and look for documentation about "LEAF LINING" and I am pretty sure there has been no terminology about it so I'm sure there will be critics and I look forward to your knowledge towards this training method for similarities....💯 MOVING ON 🤦‍♂️ Alright here we go.... so the beginning of the week I measured her at 8inchs. She grew a good 2.5 inches in 5 days so I had to top this girl because of height issues in the tent. I ultimately feel this was the absolute best thing for my height and the plant! 💯 and I 100% do not want to kick her early!!!! Now she's grown an 1inch since topping her 2 days ago and the prizes inside are flourishing and are growing like wild fire 🔥 🔥🔥 What until you see them 🤯 So what I have done to the inside this week is what I like to call "LEAF LINING" I basically pin the shoots created by the fan leaves to the actual fan leaf itself!!!! I know right 🤯 This has proven to be very effective which you can see the length of the shoots themselves. (some are 3.5inchs long) The stock of the fan leaves provide a straight path for growth outward! Its truly fascinating! (PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS HAS TERMINOLOGY OR NOT) Ok so I have introduced a new idea to the grow! Adding a Ring of 4 rows of wire that are attached in a circle to the top of the self-wick pot. I have fastened it using Zip ties as I did for the "LEAF LINING" 👈🤪 This was introduced for when those shoots grow out with the fan leaves as the fan leaf can no longer be of support at some point. Cant wait for that to happen. This is going be a wild ride growmies and growmettes!!!! I will continue to show you guys and gals thorough pictures of my training methods moving forward cause I think your going to start to see growers use this method 🤞 Thanks for stopping by and I really appreciate the love and support that comes from the great community of growers on grow diaries!!! Love you all!!! 👊 hey guys and gals! Posted alittlw video so you can get to know me 😆

Stoked on her. She turned out wonderful. Smells like rotting strawberries and gas. I’m so glad I could grow her out normally. No purple colors but she has a pink hue to her. I’m pleased. Into the cure closet she goes. She will cure for a couple weeks and I can’t wait to press her into some rosin 🍓

will have to see but at 8 & 10 weeks, i think they look a little small. as long as i continue watering, this new maxsisun mf2000 should fatten these buds up. cant wait for next grow with the new light in 3x3 tent. this is becoming the best hobby i can recall next to working in my garden all summer. and this grow diary is great as you can have an honest review of progress etc...i have learned so much from this community. Thanks and Blessings for all!

* *********** Week 11 - June 20 to 26, 2020 - Days 71 to 77 from germination *********** * These girls have been continuing their growth this week and looking better all the time. GSC2 still slow though and will not have much yield. Her leaves have turned very dark this week due to lockouts I suspect. Her hairs are still very white and coming out pointy looking for pollen and swelling. GSC is still swelling and her buds are bigger at the end of the week. Purple colours also coming out in her. The big girl has done well being squished in the corner as I had to put the two in one tent this week. The frost in GSC has been coming out for the last two weeks and is really getting sticky this week. The pH is still crazy high for the girls but they are pushing through this issue and finishing up. These are very resilient plants and I am impressed with her vigour!! Still giving them feedings in the 3.0 pH range to help as her runoff is still coming in at mid 7’s......for both girls. GSC has been feed hard because her leaves have a nice pale colour, unlike GSC2, so keep her going and swelling. They were given a heavy watering of 8L each on day 71 to find out where the medium is. They were 7.9pH when started and last runoff was roughly 7.1pH......should have gone further to bring down more but stopped there so I didn’t flush out all of the feed since they have a couple fo weeks left. The hairs on GSC are turning more of a tan colour rather than snow white. I suspect she they have roughly this week plus another yet before thinking about harvest.......I see them going to 84 days roughly, 12 weeks. GSC bud sites are getting pointy this week. Added bamboo steaks to GSC to tie the long branches to and support her weight. GSC2 less so and are still looking more round as she continues to fill in her buds. GSC stems have been turning purple more and more this week. Suspect it is a combination of pH and stresses with temps. GSC2 was tied more this week as well to let more light in closer to the main stem. This paid off as well as she is stacking the lower points more. She, GSC2, has also paid a bit of a price over the last week because she was kept in the flower tent with other more mature girls. The environment in that tent was striving for 76 degrees and 51% humidity but GSC2 wants 82 degrees and 65% humidity........didn’t have much choice😢 Fast Buds has rocked this strain and dialled her in after the generations of breeding!! She is very frosty for an auto and had she been given the correct watering, she would be considered an easy grow In my opinion! The two girls are growing very different but that is grower related to transplant and not genetics. Awesome job Fast Buds......the girls are keeping me smiling......and scratching my head at the same time👍👍👍👍 Little more detail....... June 20/20 - Day 71 - 6L low ph flush of plain water @ 4.0 to bring down pH..........3L each girl. - Followed with a low pH feeding of 4L watering with Rezin, Liquid Wt, CalMag, B52 @ 2ml, Piranha @ 1ml, Voodoo @ 0.5ml/L, = 1170ppm and pH 4.4 - GSC1 tops are getting lots of purple in the bud. - GSC1 is filling in nicely and top leaves are starting to fade yellow. - GSC2 is dark😞 June 21/20 - Day 72 - continuing flush with 12L of plain water pH to 3.3 to bring down pH. - 6L given to each girl. - added bamboo stakes to pull GSC1 apart and open up the middle bud sites to more light. - GSC1 is 38" tall and 36" across now😀👍 - GSC2 is 20" tall and 24" wide👍 June 22/20 - Day 73 - 2L each watering with Rezin @ 1ml - hairs are turning more red and more white to tan now. - GSC1 is closer.....getting to home stretch soon. June 23/20 - Day 74 - 5L - Massive @ 3ml/L, Rezin & L.Weight & B52 @ 2ml/L, Vitathrive & Dual Fuel @ 1ml/L = 1110ppm - GSC 3L, GSC2 - 2L - they are getting close to the end so getting the last bits of everything into them😀 - noticing GSC1 top cola may start to bleach out a bit. - GSC2 feels like she has stalled. June 24/20 - Day 75 - watering 3L each with Massive & Terpinator @ 3ml/L, Rezin & Vita & L.Wt @ 2ml/L, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml/L, CalMag @ 1ml/L = 1385ppm and pH to 3.9...crazy! - moved the two girls together today as the other two are going into darkness now, they are done. June 25/20 - Day 76 - Dry out day - GSC is doing well with her buds filling in now and firming up. Top leaves are drying more. - GSC2 is dark.....F......plain water and not much more we can do. June 26/20 - Day 77 - 7L watering with Rezin and Sensyzime @ 2ml = 75ppm and pH at 4.0 - 4L given to GSC and 3L given to GSC2. - Staying with RO water now.......tap water appears to have been an issue. - too bad the ph was such an issue.....GSC would be a monster😞 - run off numbers in pots: GSC 7.6pH and 780ppm GSC2 7.6pH and 1850ppm (she has stalled) Awesome strain Fast Buds.......will be running her again!!!!!!
