🌱 Week 3, Day 7 Update: Buds Are Blooming! 🌿
Hey Grow Fam,
We're cruising through Week 3, and my girl is really coming on—buds are starting to form, and it's a sight to behold!
The girl is growing so fast now, drinking 4.5L a day. She could even do with in-between waterings, in my opinion. She's aiming for the stars and shooting for the moon, getting bigger every day and stinking out my room. I had to tie my light higher up with some rope as it wouldn't go any higher, and shoots were getting way too close! I did SCROG when flipping, and I should've been a bit more strict on it (did it longer), but now I realize why SCROG is used. Imagine if I never used it—she would be way too tall. Overall, I'm so happy with how she is growing and can't wait to see the final product. :)
But, as with any journey, we've hit a little bump in the road. Despite keeping our feeding consistent at 850ppm, the runoff readings have been creeping up. Last check-in showed a runoff of 1400ppm. It's got me thinking we might be dealing with a salt buildup in the root zone.
To address this, I'm sticking with our feeding routine at 800-850ppm. If the runoff ppm keeps climbing or if our plants start showing signs of nutrient burn, I will adjust accordingly, but as of right now, I'm sticking to the same feed as she looks great! (
If I do begin to notice signs of nutrient burn (excess), I will try to water with a lower EC/PPM, like 700ppms, to bring it down. But if I don't get the results I'm hoping for, I will just flush the plant with 3x the media size of water (just plain pH water) to wash out any old salts and reset the medium. You don't really want to do this with coco depending on what stage your at in flower, veg on the other hand flush.? Sure!, if you really need to reset that medium go for it, (i do see tiny signs of burn but thats fine if it gets worse then i have a problem)
Let's stay focused and keep our eyes on the prize—beautiful healthy buds. We've got this!

She got that snow moon showers a few hours ago… luckily she is lollipop so they shouldn’t be any problems with humidity. Her Sweet smell lingers around.

Overall, this plant was a producer! Easy to grow, no surprises and stayed healthy throughout. 11 weeks from seed to harvest. It was squat, but stacked, so airflow and humidity control were key to preventing powdery mildew or bud rot. Took the nutrients like a champ, didn’t show too many demands. I’d like to run this again to see if I can get them taller, to potentially produce more. Otherwise, a very good, potent strain choice for someone who is short on space, and would do well with a sea of green style…Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Fat Bastard Auto by MSNL
👉Sponsored Grow👈
W7F6 8/4 10-16
Watered at the end of last week and have not watered yet this week. I have been foliar feeding at least once a day with the blend.
Calmag 15ml
Plant Juice 60ml
GH bloom 5ml
Green Sensation 4ml
Feed was ph 6.37, ppm 784 at 65f.
I ph’d the water down to 6.25 with brought the runoff down to a range of 6.7-7.42 on the plants in the tent. I think it should be lower, but in the meantime, I hope this helps my tent family recover from lockout.
I defoliated to remove yellow leaves and an undesirable new discovery appeared 😱. I wasn't sure so I asked. Well within minutes, i had my answer. I saw pollen sacs 😡. Damn it. Fat Bastard is a bastard. This is my first plant to hermie on me. My responder gave instructions so I cut off the sacs and threw in the toilet. Further examination shows what I think is she already pollinate self and has seeds. I will grow her out for next month. This grow that was supposed to be easy, water only, with a clean finish, has been anything but.
Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Your likes and comments motivate me to keep sharing my journey. Let’s continue to learn to grow together!
Stay green, growers love 💚🌿

Did a half does to see how well it does at first. I make water in 2 gallon batches, 2 gallons with food, when empty, 2 gallons of with calmag.

Day 50 - Starting week 8 today and she’s looking beautiful. She definitely not as big as I was expecting but she’s really starting to fatten up, looking and smelling amazing. Can’t wait for these last couple weeks for her to finish and chop her.
Day 51 - All is looking good and hoping by the end of week 10 she’ll be ready or close to ready for chopping. Starting to get milky trichomes but still quite a few clear. The next couple weeks are gonna be fun to watch her fatten up more.
Day 52 - She definitely looking good and getting a lot of milky trichs but there’s still a bit of time before she’s ready to chop, at least that’s what I’m thinking. Might do a split harvest if she calls for it but hoping she’ll be ready by week 10 or 11 at the latest. Just need her to fatten up a bit in the middle.
Day 53 - Gave her a feeding of water today and continuing to watch her fatten each day. She’s starting to get really frosty and smelly and I’m loving it! Excited for the last few weeks.
Day 54 - All is looking good still and it’s like this girl is almost turning into one big giant frosty bud and couldn’t be happier with how easy she’s been to grow so far. Right now she’s almost 100% milky trichs and looks like she still has a little more time to go still. I’m going for a little more couch lock so need those ambers to start showing up.
Day 55 - All is looking good still, just watching her fatten up everyday.
Day 56 - Last day of week 8 and she’s smelling sooo sweet and getting frostier everyday. Thinking about just giving her pH’d water from here on out. I’m guessing another week or two and she should be finishing up but just gonna continue watching trichs. Waiting for them to start turning amber. Still a few clear in there but not many, mostly all cloudy now.

Hello Diary,
It's the end of the second week of vegetation on my little farm and as you can see from the photos, all the plants are developing nicely and quickly without any problems.
I only water every 4-5 days and watch her and her roommates develop and grow beautifully.
Titan F1 grew the most this week by about 15 cm and outgrew his roommates, which is great.
It grew the most in height, but it also got new leaves.
And they started showing the first signs of flower formation. It will be much more visible next week.
As I mentioned, watering is not that frequent, every 4 days she gets about 2 liters of water, like her two roommates.
This time I added Bigger Flowers from the Bio Flowering Booster palette.
In my opinion, the conditions on the farm are satisfactory, the humidity is still around 50% and the temperature is around 25 degrees.
A brief overview of the week.
08/05/2023 - Day 9.
Watering. I prepared about 6 liters of water, lowered the pH to 6.0 and added Bigger Flowers.
I watered all three plants evenly with that amount.
12/05/2023 - Day 13.
Watering. This time I didn't add Bigger Flowers, I just regulated the p.H. value.
13/05/2023 - Day 14.
Photographing and height measurement. Officially the end of the second week of growing season.
Titan F1 - 24 cm
That's all for this week, thank you all for your support and see you soon.

Another Week Down – Things Are Moving Fast!
Wow, another week flew by and we barely noticed! The plants are growing beautifully and developing nicely.
One surprise this week: one of the Monkey Grease plants is definitely not a monkey... it’s a Gorilla Grease! 😄
This one is thriving — strong, fast-growing, and clearly the most vigorous of the whole bunch. It really stands out compared to the others, and we’re excited to see how it continues to develop!
This week we also started light feeding:
One watering with Fish Mix at 1ml/L (around 280 ppm)
Followed by a watering with Alg-A-Mic at the same ratio (around 150 ppm)
Both feedings were well-received, and the girls are loving it so far! 🌱💪

Day 56.
Hi, I'm back. I'll give you the photos of day 55. During the absence of the plants, they faced a root problem. I solved this problem by washing the pots and reducing the tds of the substrate to 500 ppm and using Azos in 2. Cycles.

Flowering Begins .......................................
My little creation is officially Flowering folks!!
After stretching upwards about 30cm all tips are developing little Budlets. I started to see minor signs of Nitrogen deficiency from a coupleof bottom leaves that
suddenly began to yellow. This is fairly normal as the plant would have needed as much (nitrogen) as it could get doing all that stretching.
I needed to feed half strength grow nutes ( professors nutrients) @1ml/L three times during the last 7 days.
Now that the stretch seems to have slowed right down I will start to add some Dr Greenthumbs Bud n Bloom mix ( aprox qtr of a cup).
I'll also keep using LST to allow as much light to penetrate as possible. 👍
**** Now for the Weekly Australian Music Videos ***
Last week I posted Links to songs from the Artist Paul Kelly , they were Sleep Australia Sleep and Dumb Things.

She has turned into a beauty. Those pistils are flame like against the green, pink and purple nugs, exceptional 👌🏻what a strain. The smell coming off this is just straight fruit but the aroma is developing daily.
Around 2 weeks remaining.
