The girls have survived another week ❤️ I did a light defoliation and have been monitoring the RH closely. We have had a very damp week here, and the RH kept climbing and had my fan working hard. They are starting to plump up and fill in 😋. They have also started to slow their drinking habits, instead of watering every three days, it has moved to every 4 now. Just a couple of weeks left, I think I will be harvesting these over Christmas 🎄, and will have some great bud ready for the new year! 🎉🎊🍾

Growing fast - have the start of 16 cola locations and starting to work some of them back towards the middle of the plant. Lots of training - noticing that the ground cover is a bit too aggressive and getting in the way of light distribution so having to trim that back quite a bit. Also its making it hard for the training ties to stay in the ground. Weekly nutes continue with same mix above.

Всем привет друзья! Решил попробывать фотопереодный поднять от Fast buds и не только, смотри профиль. Это будет мой первый опыт с фотопереодными растенями. Надеюсь фотопереодный покажет достойный результат! #Smail_Seeds

Week starting off a bit rough. Massive temperature spike up to 29 degrees c and 30% humidity for a few hours shocked her. Some yellowing on the tips of new growth. Starting off this week with lower A + B (1ml/l, 1/3 strength) and adding in some potash plus to prestart her for flower. Midweek: Flushed with about 10L of Ph'd water because I was seeing a significant rise in TDS/EC. Started feeding today with 1/4 strength Grow A+B and 1/4 Bloom A+B. End of week: Very consistent growth. Amazed. Going to be a monster auto 😁 May have broken a branch while LST. Just put it back where I found it and tied it up. Hopefully the I didnt see it, it didnt happen method pulls through. Started feeding with Bloom nutrient schedule at 1/3 strength and upped the dose of calmag to 1ml/L Next week will see a steady increase in nutrient strength and additional bloom additives from cycos advanced line and her first hair cut.

She has grown quite a bit over this past week. I'm excited to clone her and continue another cycle with good genetics. The watering routine remains the same, with alternating days of fertilizer and aerated tea. I also let it dry back for about 2 days. It's very healthy, with very green leaves and they're getting wider every day. I'll soon do a toppinp. See tou.

Day 50 overdue feeding and watering. 5g SimPro Bloom half gallon of 6.5PH spring water each. I'll never choose this fertigation method again. So much easier to amend the medium then top dress every 30 days. The plants seem normal for 50 days from seed, but not normal for a plant that is supposed to be harvest ready 60 days from seed. A few people here on GDs ran this strain way passed 60 days and maybe this is why. It's possible some phenotypes just take longer. No smell and no trichomes at this point. I would guess they need another 25 to 30 days to nug up. Day 52 they are both praying but still cannibalizing themselves. 5g isn't enough. Considering a top dressing. Day 54 - pulling 5 yellow leaves per day. This is not nutrient deficiency, these plants are fading. SMH I am behind pissed! Wasted 2 months of tent space and nutrients. I didn't do everything right, but the lesson for me is to stay away from fast strains. This is actually motivation to switch to photos. More forgiving of the small mistakes. In this case I overwatered in early veg. I should have tossed them both then. My preamendment ratios were off and I switched to water feeding during preflower. All of this has resulted in a plant that looks to be done in a week with marble sized fluffy buds that have zero trichomes and no smell. PISSED OFF!!!!! I'm learning through my failure but it still sucks! Day 55 Watered both with rain water, CalMag, and SimPro Bloom. I know CalMag isn't recommended in flower but I don't care about this bull crap plant anymore. I'm popping new beans and am gonna run these two as far as possible to see if I can get a decent top cola at least. Still pretty pissed. Day 56 Pics show how they respond to watering. Sheryl is praying, Candace leaves are up, but not praying like Sheryl. The only smell on either is from a stem rub. No visible trichomes. Not when I even zoom in. So odd! Day 58 Finally have some odor! These plants are growing like a regular auto-flower. I've been freaking out because the breeder says it's a fast strain (60 days). The lesson here is to always listen to the plant. Scrap the website crap and pay attention to pistils, leaves, and trichomes. They look and smell good for day 58. The yellow leaves are likely due to me adopting an abbreviated / hybrid feed schedule to suit 60 day seed to harvest. The day 55 feeding was 6g of SimPro Bloom in 51oz of water and that seemed to hit the spot. I need a good loupe so I can have a strong finish. Day 61 Fed Candace 1tbl of Terp Tea with Azos & Mykos, plus Fish Sh!t. Half gallon of Spring water. Bottom fed Sheryl Azos, mykos, & half tbls of SimPro Veg in 16oz of Spring water.

What a journey! We started out with a fungal infection or dampening off. Either way, she survived to bring some of the hardest buds ever grown. Very impressed. The resilience of thos one is something to note. Currently the plant is in control of the humidity. But it won't be for very long. Not once the exhaust fan kicks in to max power. The temp is stable at 61° f. Humidity is at 62%. Now 63 and climbing. 🤔. I adjusted it. And it won't stay still. It either plummets or spikes up. A tiny opening in the door dropped it super fast. While closing it up spiked it in the mid 60s. I'm trying to level it out at 55%. The temp is perfect. I should be able to do it. I can tweek it until it works properly. .so I just pulled the roots out of the bucket. I had a whole bunch of goopy shit all in the roots in buried in the pebbles. What the hell is that? I'm trying to find out right now. It was all black and nasty. It smelled like soil. Not strong or anything, but like I didn't use soil. Anyway, I did use carboflush and it turned the water a super dark brown. Maybe that's part of it. Or maybe that was the problem all along. Black root rot? Root rot at all? The roots seemed fine. Just the sludge all in their business. How should I have cleared that out if I saw it? Dump plain water through the hydroton? I think I'll do that for my next run. Once a week top off into the hydroton. Makes sense. It should keep the roots clean? 12/16/2025 Day 1 of drying Papaya Cookies and the environment looks great. It swings a bit, but doesn't go over 61% and I haven't seen it go under 45%. I know it's a big swing, but the temp is solid at 61° and it's in range. I expect it to be a bit more controlled in a few days after the plant dries out a bit. You know, when she has less control over the humidity. The goal is 61° and 53% humidity. I'm pretty sure I can keep it at 60%, but maybe I want 55%. I'm thinking 55% because it's the top of the ideal range and it still matches the temp. So it should I perfectly. So for the setup. I don't think I properly explained it yesterday. The 2x2 is connected to the 3x3 with a 4" duct. You can see in the picture that the hose is installed on the top of the 2x2 and to the upper 6" port on the right side of the tent. There's a reason I'm telling you this. The 4" charcoal filter is on the left side of the tent. If it were on the right side I'd have to attach the dry tent to the left side of the 3x3. The goal is to exhaust the dry tent with the whole 3x3 circulating air throughout, before exhausting the dry tent. Instead of the filter being right above the port, sucking in way too much from the dry tent and neglecting the rest of the 3x3. It makes sense in my head. So far it's seems to be working. The air in the tent has been exhausting just fine. With the 2 circular fans running at level 7 dynamic mode, it moves the leaves just enough and mimics the outside world quite well without any harsh gusts. I wonder. Seeing as though a cannabis plant needs to be pollinated, and it goes airborne, wouldn't having larger gusts of wind help a healthy cannabis plant to grow bigger buds as to catch the pollen? That makes sense to me. Don't overdo it, just a few little gusts just like September and October. At harvest season. I bet that will do something. Maybe I'll turn the speed up to 9 and see what happens. Wind burn on these leaves is the least of my problems. Plus, it'll be fine. Don't you worry. Maybe she'll produce more trichomes and bulk up a bit more. It makes total sense. Without wind burn, just under where it would start to happen, I bet she will finish up nicely and have added a bit more bulk too. 12/17/2025 Day 2: The humidity is bouncy. It stays in range from 46% to 61% I'd like to see it stabilize at 55%, but I don't think I'll see that until I have a bit more control over the space. It's funny. To bring the humidity up when it's low, I open the main tent and the air doesn't get pulled out of the dry tent making it more humid. I open the dry tent a little to drop the humidity. Either way, it's in range and the temp doesn't move at all. It warmed up here for the day and the temp went from 61 to 64 and holding steady. Nothing else to report. 12/18/2025 Day 3 of drying and we are looking great! A lot of her smell has changed to a sharp pungent scent. Meh. I know it's gonna be back to some insanely good smell very soon. After all it's only day 3. I woke up to the humidity hovering around 47% I was kinda hoping it would stay between 50% and 55%. No matter, I added a bowl of water to help keep the humidity up a bit. Hopefully it keeps it under control at 55%. Other than that, nothing else to report. 12/19/2025 So day 4 and I had to add a mini humidifier to the dry tent. It was dropping below 50% and I want it around 53%. The temp is 60° f. So now the humidity is at 54° and is leveled out. I'm guessing maybe 7 days? 10 to 12 days is what I'm going for. The longer the better, but I also have another plant that has to go in there and they won't fit together. The only reason I'm concerned with it is because I'm starting new seeds today or tomorrow. Probably today and I'll be needing the 3x3 in the next week or 2. This little lady will be done by then, but my other plant might have to dry in the 3x3 and that'll take 10 to 14 days. By then the seedlings will be ready for their buckets. Or well, no. They will be ready for their buckets in about 10 days. If not less. Maybe 8 days. I usually add them to the final container just before the roots really start coming in. That way I'm not shocking them too much when they hit the medium.

Hey everyone! Hope you're all doing amazing! TickTockCroc is back for another grow! ┏(＾0＾)┛ Last time, I did a Fastbuds Girl Scout Cookies grow in my closet using a small pot. Yielded 22g dry weight (lol). Didn't do any ph monitoring or temperature control until later. This time... I'm determined to do it better! For this grow I will be doing: 2 x Fastbuds Girl Scout Cookies 2 x Fastbuds Gelato I AM DOING A SEPARATE DIARY FOR EACH STRAIN. THIS DIARY WILL ONLY BE UPDATING PROGRESS WITH THE GIRL SCOUT COOKIES! For this set-up, I decided to get a 1.2m x 1.2m x 2.0m tent and a carbon filter with fan. Also using fabric pots instead of plastic. For lights I'm using my old 600W Viper LED. I love this set-up!! This diary is starting on Day 7 from seed for the GSC. They just got moved to the tent yesterday (had to wait for it in the mail, got excited and germinated seeds too soon lol) and so they were in the closet until then. There has been no fan to circulate air or remove heat, and I think that's why the first set of leaves are curling a bit. Annoyingly, I have to wait for distilled water to arrive in the mail so I can calibrate my PH meter, so have not been able to ph adjust water. It has had one watering of evian water so far, so hopefully thats OK. I am using BioBizz Light Mix soil and using BioBizz nutrients. I will update which specific nutrients when I can. Take care for now, folks! *EDIT* DAY 10 UPDATE: I've uploaded a day 10 video update! So today is day 10 and I fed them their first feed yesterday. I've added the nutrient details to the diary. They seem to be LOVING it. I also noticed some pale spots on some leaves - perhaps exterior nute burn as I splashed the leaves by accident. We'll see.

DAY 30, LESSON LEARNED It's been a tough few days for the ladies. But, what doesnt kill u makes u stronger😁💪🏾. After my last post the plants started to show some nutrient burn. I believe that happend because after my last defoliation post I gave the plants the same amount of water and nutrients as before. But ofcourse the plants were much smaller after the defoliation, so what I should have done was reduce the amount of water and nutrients. So these last days it was just watching the plants and keeping a close eye on em.

So this grow came to a finshed but I had a. Few issues that’s held me up from finishing up the diary, but in due time I will reupload it all in order soon. But over all I will also update with a final weigh in of each strain produced so stay tuned 🤙🏻🔥

Growing: 5 weeks Flowering: 9 weeks This was my first grow indoor from some time ago. First time using the Mars Hydro SP250. Was amazed at the result, did not expect it. Encountered a few problems, including Calmag deficiency and some bugs. Did not gave them water for 30 days after plantation to the big bags of 25L. Harvested all plants at the same time, which might have been too early for a few ladies. Nevertheless I enjoyed getting to know the lamp and hoping I will do better next round. The lamp was in this round not at max capacity but at 226w, it came like that out of the box and I did not adjust it. Also did zero defoliation which resulted in a lot of "Albino Tops" under the net, which I recovered to make butter and bubble hash from. Most of the buds above the net where really dense and not fluffy at all. End result: 320gr total, around 4x 70gr average from the 2x BB OG, 1x A.M.S. and 1x Jack, the Purple Bud gave around 40grams. Thanks for checking out my grow! Good luck growing!

added 2 blurples on the lower canopy on Bloom only @60w each (just reds) lowered the whites slightly to match up watts, @970W running all lights (fc6500 710w @600w, migro 240w @100w fc3000 300w @150w) all frosty and pretty much done the bolt, no more droops at night, now for the bulking m/ m/

This was a funny journey. It reacts better to scrog than LST, lst one only yielded (wet) 159g while the one with scrog yielded (wet) 346g. Unfortunately I got mold on the top bud of the lst plant, high humidity is very dangerous to this strain (atleast for me was). After drying for 1week and curing it for other week I decided to try it out and I got pretty happy with it. First grow and the buds taste very fruity and sweet, from 0-10 the ash is probably an 8. I am excited to try the other one out since it received much more light (it has 17colas). Loved to grow this ones, highly recommend this strain for beginners. I'll update the outcome whenever they dry. Thank you everyone for supporting me on my first grow. 87g dried, not bad for 105W (tgl star 100), taste is pretty good and It gives an uplifting buzz.

Increased their food by a tad. Looked perfectly health raised to about 1900ppm. Again spider mites at it crawling up every leaf and creating a colony. I thought it was over until I sat there nearly every night finding the f*****s and rubbing the leaves with the spray. Defoliation was needed ASAP due to them stretching nicely. Started slowly from the bottom up. (repeated this process every 3-5 days.)

Las amnesia están malitas. Ns exactamente por qué es. El único fallo que creo haber cometido ha sido regar de más, supurando por abajo un par de veces. He regado cada 4-5 días (muy poco) así q ns si el sustrato está muy compacto y por eso no traga ni como airearlo

PAR 450 PPFD It's all about creating new branches during these weeks of vegetation and LST for me is the best way to achieve that. More branches means more Green Gelato cones at the end of my grow. I try to create about 20 per plant at the end of vegetation.

Apple Fritter developed some CalMag deficiency when I used a different fertilizer, so I'll stick with B'cuzz for this round.

Very rough week. I noticed discoloration of fan leaves which led to a lot of different deficiencies. Thought I was going to lose my plants.
