After having my first plant that I gave hose water and sunlight be cut in half by a caterpillar, and my first indoor plant to get botrytis. This has been my first fully successful harvest and I couldn't be happier. Been listing to all of the GFYH podcast with Rasta Jeff and learned most of the steps through listening on repeat at work. This plant is very fun to grow, it will naturally fill it's canopy without much LST and occasionally topping. I have no complaints about the nutrients, mostly using FoxFarm items, the trio is nice and I can see the difference when I pushed to far either way with them, the plants would respond pretty quickly and I could fix and possibly compensate for the mistake and they would bounce back like nothing. Not having experience with other brands I'll say that I am happy enough to keep it as a constant variable for my personal refinement in becoming a better grower. I plan to continue growing this strain for a while so that I can have a way to see my improvement, and I will likely make another journal after at least a couple harvests.

My patience has paid off, it is finally time for harvest! The aroma is absolutely blowing me away, stay tuned for harvest and trimming pictures!

Day 42 - Kinda crazy how fast it's gotten to be day 42 (the meaning of life - *) in the grow. Haven't watered yet. Plan on doing that with the above nutrient schedule tomorrow or the day after. And I think that might be the last time I give any nutrients to the plant. Pistils are beginning to curl, and I've seen (just a few) amber tirchomes on one bud. I want to harvest on the earlier side because I don't want this harvest to have a big couch-lock effect. Prefer a more cerebral high, although some bodily relaxation is nice too. So I think I will be harvesting at the latest by April 10th (Day 56). Of course I will continue to watch how the plant develops and if no further trichomes are turning yellow/brown in a week, I'll wait longer. The trichomes on the sugar leaves have a wonderful lemon citrus smell by the way. Not what I was expecting, but that's fine 😛 Day 45 - Made a video of the trichomes. They definitely look cloudy enough to me. No more nutes for sure, harvest in 10 days max I think.

Very beautiful dense and fruity smelling buds. This strain is definitely not something I recommend for mainlining, as she wants to flower very fast! It took me a couple tries to build a manifold out of her, but the buds are sooo dense and fruity smelling, the pictures really don't do them justice. She is definitely not a huge yielder, as I only got 41.9 zips wet, but I will be satisfied with 8-9 zips in 69 days if the buds taste anything like they smell. She is definitely a big feeder, and absolutely covered in trichomes. I will post a final dry weight and smoke report in a few weeks, thanks for stopping by, enjoy your weekend, and Blaze On!!!

Day 15:Gave water & nutrients (2 L each). For the looks they do very well - dark green. Fanleaves build little sunroofs over a good amount of new shoots from the nodes😊. Planns for this week: will keep the soil moist and spongy and wait for the first roots to come out the bags. Till there i'll keep my alternating rhythm of clear water/nutrient solution. As soon as the pots are fully rootet through, i'll start feeding with a little drain, so i can observe wether my soil gets too salty or not. Further i'll keep bending the tops, in order to give more light to the younger shoots. As soon as the stems start making diameter, i'll prepare my scrog-net. Day 16: everything fine so far - nothing to do.....let them ladies do they thang...... Day 17: 1.5 liters of water each (pH 6.2) 1st root made it throug the bottom-edge of the pot💪!!! strong white and meaty😁. stems get stronger now, plants show dark green colour. 1(!) tipp shows a tiny little tipp-burn. i will keep watering 'till the ladies loose a little of that dark green..... just to avoid overfeeding. Day 18: 1.25 liters of water each (pH 6.2) Everything fine so far…….. still dark green an vital. Soil is soaked (i had first little drops coming out the bottom after watering this morning) Thoughts: More LST? Less LST? These fanleaves are really huge and make real sunroofs right above the new shoots. I don't see any way to get the shoots into the 'sun' but bending those fanleaves away.....but honestly..... nope! Since the lights are running at 60% (~600 ppfd) already, i rather give the littleones a soft start. They'll make it through the roof one day. My real 'concern' is the height. Yet the stem doesn't really push upwards..... if these ladies stay short, it'll take plenty of time to create a scrog 😕. Wonder wether it could help, if i let them grow straight up for a while and bend them again later. Any suggestions? Day 19: plant 3 really pops out some roots...😁; elsewise everything fine...... Day 20: Poured out some 1.5 l of water to each an had a decent amount of drain…… pH 6.1 EC 2.4 - 3.4 (average 2.9)🤡😵‍💫! Since the ladies don‘t show any tipp-burn, i will keep watering with drain (daily from now on) instead of flushing them - no panic here 😎. i guess it was just some accumulations from feeding without drain. Stems get stronger…… slow but steadily……. They still don‘t make much hight, though they produce mass. No worries yet:-) What's next? Will keep watering with drain and have an eye on EC. As soon as it gets below 1.4/1.5 i'll start feedin nutrients again. In case the ladies start getting brighter, i'll start feeding just underneath the EC, measured at last. Day 21: Drain EC still rising!!! (top 3.7/avg. 3.0)..... still not panicking - i observed very few leafs, rolling up their teeth...... but there are some. No tipp-burn at all. 1 liter poured out, would produce about 0.4 liters of drain - i guess there is still a lot of root-growth happening. Main colas and shoots are developing fine. Still dark green. Lifted the lights a bit - since the ladies took a little hight😁. Thoughts: According to the producer, my soil has an EC of about 1.2. Factoring the amount and concentration of nutrient-solution fed, i can only etsimate, there are some accumuations, residue or whatever, washing out from top to bottom. Though i'll have to check for signs of overfeeding...... and do a little flush ........only if REALLY necessary😤! In an ideal world, the ladies would demad more nutrients with any bit of growth, so i would just have to feed them water, another 2 or 3 days and everything was just perfect😁😁😁 UPCOMING: Week 4 😶

Our sweet lady survived a week of raind and intense wind, the golden rope you see was helping the buds to stay still and to help save branches from breaking. The lady is super sugary and sticky right now, but the buds seem like they are not gonna thicken more than that. This plant has been stressed multiple times during her lifetime, from broken branches to light overdose, she has been kept away from direct sunlight since than, so this is the cause we attribute to this slower growth. Our biggest doubt is about harvest time. The buds do not seem big at all, but they look very orange and the breed's harvest is said to be in mid October, so we should start flushing! While I think we should wait untill the last week of the month, F. says i's almost time for drying. 😵😲 Looking at some pics of last year's harvest I am afraid this lady is not going to produce as much as we tought, maybe because this is our first experience with so many nutrients. Hope someone can help about harvest and buds overall look 😬😬

🗓️ WEEK 4 (veg) ⚙️ In this final week of the vegetative stage, I increased the lamp’s intensity to 100% while positioning it 60 cm away from the plant. My thinking here is that starting next week, we're flipping to a 12/12 light cycle, and I'll let the plant grow closer to the light, down to about 35 cm, without needing to dim it further. I also added a coal filter, since it starts to feel some smells. 💧 I raised the EC to 1.2, and the plant appears to be thriving, consuming roughly 1.5 liters per day. The pH has consistently fluctuated between 5.8 and 6.0. On day 28, I drained the DWC reservoir and started a 24-hour flush using tap water EC 0.6 - pH 5.8. This prepares the plant for the new nutrient solution that will be introduced during the upcoming transition phase. 🌱 She's growing really bushy and is still compact. To conclude the week, I performed another light defoliation, removing some lower, older leaves. The new growth looks excellent – all leaves display a beautiful, healthy green color, showing no signs of deficiencies.

So far so good! Everything is moving along nicely, halfway through week 7 and we are starting to see the first signs of them slowing down, got a few red hairs now and things look like we might see a harvest at week 9-10 I’m thinking. Hopefully be a couple pounds in here this time...lol it’s looking promising anyway, we are on day 45...ish and these girls are packin on the buds and if we push them to 10 weeks we still got another 25 days for them to grow and develop. There all starting to show signs of pk deficiency’s now, I upped the nutrient dose slightly but still progressing slowly through the older leaves. Plants are also nearing there end of life so they are expected to do this. I’ve been trying to go the “less is more” method with this tent this time as I always tend to push them hard nutrient wise, and this time I wanted to see what I got doing the opposite and giving them just what they need and not to much, seems to be going good so far anyway, we will see in a few weeks time I guess. Cheers 💨

Apologies for the lack of updates — she’s looking super healthy! Buds are really packing on weight now, rock solid, colpurfuk and the smell is absolutely out of this world. She’s honestly one of a kind. Will update again soon — looks like she’ll go another two weeks or so.

This week again had some challenges with power and humidity but we push on. The ladies are getting seriously frosty and start to fatten up. They all looking good but the Lemon Zkittles is most impressive. Also the one pheno of Gorrila Cookies is frosty frosty frosty. But all the plants are looking good and stacking on buds nicely. Looking forward to harvesting in a couple of weeks. Here to hoping no more power or humidity issues, only fat and tasty buds ahead

They completed lfirst week of Flower. Decreasing Humidity gradually to increase VPD to 1.5. Heady OG turned out to be a male one so removed it :( But, the ladies seem to enjoy life and they keep stretching every day. They have doubled in size just in one week Humidity is fluctuating between 52-58%. Temp is 22-26 Celsius. VPD is relatively constant around 1.30 except for very rainy days where my dehumidifier gets info play. PPFD is around 900 uMol.

420 Fastbuds Week10 Gorilla Punch Auto These beauties are about as done as I think they're going to get. Definitely will be chopping them in the upcoming week. They smell super strong so can't wait to see how they'll finish and dry. Being sticky would be an understatement for sure. Both did get a little crispy on a few of the leafs but I think thats do to lowering the lights in the tent. All in all Happy Growing.

So busy it's hard to keep an accurate diary Lost a plant to root rot. Now have 8 full sized plants.. 9 is in a mini pot. Overall things are going well. Newest addition is Green planet - Rezin BLOOMBASTIC Silicia Cholorine remover (reduces ph) No major issues. But have to raise ph levels. Day 6 - mostly support training as buds are now swelling.. Have time to take individual pics

Started the week with a flush and have been preparing for flower/ recovering from some stress. Trying out the flush to see how good of a response I get to flower nutrient uptake...open for advise. Ive been doing a lot of research and am just doing what seems rite to me as I continue to learn, this is 1st time ever training or applying a feed schedule to a plant I started Foliar Feeding daily this week with Bush Dr Flower Kiss by fox farm and have noticed the plant really liking it. I changed up my Cal mag to advanced nutrients Cal mag Xtra because it seems to have everything my plant was telling me I was missing recently, I like that it replaces the Kelp me Kelp you by fox farm (recommended in the FF nutrient schedule) and gives you slightly stronger doses of cal mag my plant seems to like now.
