Very nice genetic. I'll do same Jack H from Fastbuds for sure again. Plant was very strong and ready for training. I still did not smoked it, will replay later about the taste and power.

Hi all👨‍🌾👋 Welcome to my another Fastbuds journey.This time strain of choice - Tropicana Cookies Auto. One of the strongest and tastiest autoflowers available. Just couldn't resist to give a go 😁🤤 Week 0 Germination Jan 25-Feb 1 Germination in propagator. beans landed directly in substrate within 5 min after opening the package. Started believing that all methods like glass water, paper towel etc. are really useful if seeds are old, stored incorrectly or coming from shady seedbank. If seeds are from trusted source with strong genetics wouldn't be bother trying anything else than planting your beans directly to substrate. So far 100% success This time both baby girls started showing their heads within 2 days after planting seeds. Jan 25 Seeds planted. Propagator at 20 degrees and 90% humidity. Jan 27 Girls popped through the soil. Warm welcome to Kitana and Aphrodite 😍 Jan 28-30 Both babies growing at the same pace. Jan 31 Time to move from this baby size propagator to a better and more comfortable place. Feb 1 End of germination week. All went painlessly and successfully. I am super excited for whats to come 😁 Hopefully this will be another easy and successful ride. Much appreciate all your likes, follows and comments. 🙏💚❤️💜 Peace and love brothers and sisters 👨‍🌾✌️💚 Stay tuned for more updates Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/tropicana-cookies-auto

Testing the drill pump , remember the hose always has water in it haha 😂 The reason I use 6 inch net pots , is because it’s easy to interchange between small and big pots , some people use the 10 inch net pots , it’s too hard to start in , I want to be as quick as possible , the more lst or defoliation you do will delay flowering The really useful boxes have a little lip that you can drill LST anchor points , you can still remove lid without any issues, only drill through lid , DO NOT DRILL WITH LID IN PLACE , I used a 5mm drill bit Drilled the lid on the Wham Bam boxes , and dropped two purple lemonade in have also cut the locking part of the lid off , it’s a ball ache to open otherwise 😜 RESULT - the really useful boxes are amazing , the other ones are ok , but these 35litre are the best

Lady runtz has started to form buds. I'm more than happy with the growth so far. Meanwhile I'm having problems with the height. I'll probably have to remove the fan and charcoal filter from the tent to make more room at the top.

Estimated day of harvest = Mar. 12 @6:45 Electricity usage and average cost so far 700 kW x $0.186 / kWh = $130 Mar. 9 - one mini fan broke, it was just off and when i tried to turn it on it made a grinding noise while barely spinning. Called the store who sold it to me and they will replace it no questions asked. Still plenty of airflow between inline fans, 1 mini fan and dehumidifier Mar. 10 - still cloudy trichomes, a small amount are still moderately clear, others have hints of amber, but very few - temp still 72 with lights out, 77 lights on, rH 35% - buds got taller and bigger since the last water / mini flush - lower leaves are fading nicely, lots of yellowing starting from the smaller older and moving up Specifications:😎👇 Seeds: - 2x White Widow feminized seeds from Crop King Seed Tent: - 4x4x6 Mammoth Grow tent LED: - 2x Spider Farmer SF1000 LED for veg - 4x Spider Farmer SF1000 LED for flower (190 watts - 50-40-50-50 back left, back right, front left, front right) Pots: - 2x 0.5 L starter pots - 2x 5 gal smart pots after transplant Soil: - Pro-mix containing mycorrhizae and perlite, used for starter pots and mixed at roughly 1:3 ratio with Ocean Forest - Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil, used in the 5 gallon pots and mixed with roughly 3:1 ratio with pro-mix - note: pro mix was mixed thoroughly with ocean forest in the 5 gal pot, then pro-mix was used on the top layer, in and around where the transplant will be to help the early veg stage avoid getting too "hot" via nutrients.

Week 9: Day 57-60: Seemed to have gotten the deficiencies(rather PH fluctuations causing them) under control. 4AM#3 took a while to recover but it has stopped progressing for the time being and the buds have continued to bulk up while the pistols start to orange out. 4#1 and #2 are doing good. They recovered faster and started to really bulk up. I'd say 4AM#1 has about 50-70% orange pistils while 4AM#2 and #3 are at about 10% by day 60. Damn like I said last week 4AM#2's buds are gona get huge! One of them tipped over on day 60, had to add support, but quite hard to find a spot when half the branch is the bud... Day 61-63: Continuing to bulk up, the 1.25x Calmg dose on day 60 seemed to do them well! 4AM#3 hasn't been showing any new signs of deficiencies, so that's good! Hoping she won't be too premature when I chop the plants(I am chopping days 73-74, only days I have time), but the pistils are starting to go crazy! Around 50% orange pistols now on 4AM#2 and #3! And 4AM#1 has about 90-95% orange pistils. When I used the handheld microscope, which is hard, the trichomes are almost all milky and some 5% amber on 4AM#1 and about 30-50% milky and a few amber on #2 and #3, seems like it will be just right! Can't wait! Gave em their last big feed of blume nutes on Dy 63, will be giving them plain PH'd water with Regulator till harvest. 10 Days left! almost there! 4AM#3 might look ugly but she still frosty and thicc as hell! Oh and they smell delicious!!! 😵 EDIT: Oh and just wanted to say thank you for all the help you all have given me so far! Oh and shout out to FastBuds, which sent me a message last week saying they were interested in me growing their genetics! They're sending me some free seeds for my next grow! How awesome is that!

Week 12 Update — Gorilla Zkittlez Auto (FastBuds) Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms Medium: Scientetics Coco Stage: Late Flower / Ripening Status: Days from harvest ⸻ Overall Plant Status Week 12 marks the final stretch before harvest. Nutrient uptake has noticeably slowed, which is expected at this stage as the plant shifts energy away from vegetative processes and into final resin and terpene development. Trichomes are almost entirely cloudy, with harvest planned once approximately 15–20% amber is reached. Natural senescence has begun, with leaf fade becoming visible. Buds are fully formed, swollen, and resin production appears to be peaking. ⸻ Feed & Maintenance Log (Final Week) 12/6 — Late Flower Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.0 | 600 ppm • 4 ml Green Sensation • 0.5 ml Silicium Bloom • 18 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 6 ml Photo+ • ½ tsp Recharge Purpose at this stage: • Green Sensation: Low-dose PK and carbohydrate source to support final bud density and resin production without pushing excess nutrients. • Silicium Bloom: Maintains cell wall strength and stress resistance late into flower. • Coco B: Provides potassium-heavy nutrition to support terpene production and final swelling. • Pure Zym: Breaks down dead root matter, keeping the root zone clean as uptake slows. • Ruby Fulvic: Improves micronutrient transport and overall nutrient efficiency. • Photo+: Enhances photosynthesis efficiency during peak resin production. • Recharge: Supports microbial life to keep nutrient availability high despite reduced feeding. ⸻ 12/7 — Maintenance & Reset • Mild defoliation • Reservoir cleaned and remaining solution dumped Fresh mix: 1 gal RO | pH 6.1 | 500 ppm • 2 ml Green Sensation • 14 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Reduced EC to match slowing uptake. • Focused on potassium, enzyme activity, and nutrient mobility rather than growth. ⸻ 12/8 — Observation • Senescence becoming visible • Lower leaves beginning to fade naturally This is a healthy sign of nutrient drawdown and internal remobilization late in flower. ⸻ 12/9 — Reduced Uptake Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.2 | 366 ppm • 2 ml Green Sensation • 12 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Further reduction in nutrient strength to avoid salt buildup. • Supporting resin maturation rather than biomass growth. ⸻ 12/11 — Ripening Additives 1 gal RO | pH & ppm not measured • 10 ml Winter Frost • 5 ml Car-Bou-Naria • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Winter Frost: Signals the plant to finish strong by accelerating ripening, resin production, and terpene expression. • Car-Bou-Naria: Provides readily available carbohydrates to fuel final metabolic processes without adding nitrogen. • Ruby Fulvic: Maintains nutrient mobility even with minimal feeding. ⸻ 12/12 — Final Low-EC Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.0 | 255 ppm • 10 ml Winter Frost • 5 ml Car-Bou-Naria • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 4 ml Pure Zym Purpose at this stage: • Extremely light feeding to support ripening while allowing the plant to finish clean. • Encourages full terpene and cannabinoid expression without pushing nutrients. ⸻ Harvest Outlook • Trichomes: Nearly 100% cloudy • Target harvest: 15–20% amber • Plant is in full ripening mode with minimal nutrient demand • Senescence progressing naturally This run is finishing exactly how a dialed-in coco grow should — controlled fade, clean root zone, and intentional nutrient tapering leading into harvest.

Notei que a g13 HAZE 2 fenos diferentes a mesma alimentação para as duas uma demonstrou sobrealimentação mais todas estão bem

Que pasa familia, vamos con la séptima semana de floración de estas Forbidden Mochi feminizadas de Seedstockers. Vamos al lío, las plantas se trasplantaron a macetas de 7 litros. El ph se controla en 6.5, la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/21 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de crecimiento puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 100% de potencia. Tenemos como visitante de nuevo los trips, compré depredadores que colocaré a principios de semana. Me gustaría estar más encima este cultivo pero la salud me está impidiendo un poco estar 100% con el proyecto. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Seeming like we are going to be harvesting in the next week or so. So we are moving on to flushing. Watering twice a week with ph balanced water. No nutrients.

Herzlich willkommen zu meinem neuen Grow mit der Orange Sherbet Auto von 2Fast4Buds. Die Eltern sind Cookies Auto F5 x Tangie´matic, der Typ ist F3 Feminized Polyhybrid Autoflower. Der Strain war Winner of the American Autoflower Cup 2025, Kategorie Best Auto Hash. Die Aussicht auf frischen Orangensaftgeschmack macht mich wunderfizzig. Wieder verwendet wurde für diesen Grow die 15Liter Stofftöpfe von ROOTiES, die Sonnenerde Bio Hanferde, BioBizz Wurmhumus, BIONOVA + zamnesias MonsterBud Mix Living Soil, zamnesias Smart Start Plugs und Plagrons Seedbooster Plus. Hat sich alles bestens bewährt. Tag 37: Die Orange Sherbet Auto von 2Fast4Buds bekam 1,5 Liter Wasser und das war etwas zu viel. Der Stofftopf war unten 'rum nass. Tag 39: 0,5 Liter Wasser. Tag 41: 1,0 Liter Wasser. Der Stofftopf ist wieder trocken. Schön, dass du dich für meinen Grow interessierst. Schau gerne wieder rein. 👋😎

Great week of flowering, the plants are in full chug mode and are now drinking their entire res worth of water in under 4 days... canopy is looking so good and I’m so ecstatic to see the culmination of everything I’ve learned so far in one amazing looking plant! Props to Mephisto on this new strain, although I can’t say for sure how good it will smoke I can say for sure that these are some sturdy, very well bred plants!!

Ich Warte nochmals 1 Woche, trinken fast 6 Liter pro Tag

The girl suffers a lot due to lack of potassium :( there were guesses about her, because there were reasons that needed attention :( well, now I know what was wrong with them :) and I hope the results will only get better in the future :) the rings are already covered with resin: ) and the smell is simply wonderful:) it is not fancy, but it has really big flowers :) today she will get 3 liters of water with ph 6.3. and you already got what she needs :) CANNA kalium :) even though it won't help her much :) but it will be useful for other girls :)

Day 15 / 15.04. For the start of week 3 of Veg I decided to transplant the plants into their final 15l autopots. Because I only have space for 3 plants I threw out the runty Super Lemon Haze plant. I transplanted all of them into BioBizz Biomix and sprinkeled mycorrhizae on the roots. I watered them in with 300ml of nutrient solution at 6.5 Ph and 1.1 mS/cm TDS. The VPD has now reached 0.8 kPa. With the transplant I also switched the small light the plants were under to the Mars Hydro TS-3000 on 20% brightness. This means plants' DLI has been bumped up to about 20 mol/m2/d. Day 17 / 17.04. The big light has blown the third relay of the smart system in a row. This means lights turned on about half a hour late today. Day 19 / 19.04. Today I topped all of the plants at the fourth node. I initially planned to top on day 21 but they did not experience any shock from transplant so I got to do it today. Day 21 / 21.04. For the end of week 3 veg I filled up the autopot reservoir and turned it on. I'm expecting some even greater growth now.

This girl has been one of my favorites. Pineapple express is true to it name looking like a pineapple once it fades the yellow, and the green are very beautiful together smells gassy with pineapple busting out of every tone

Super busy with a move and a big garden reno. Sorry, this is the only update for this week

Easy peezy

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 4 Blue Waffle F1 – Pheno A (Folder 13A) Welcome back everyone to another week inside Project Blue Tent! If this is your first visit, welcome aboard. This project is dedicated to exploring the incredible Blue Waffle F1 genetics from Zamnesia while putting the complete Zamnesia ecosystem through its paces. Rather than growing multiple plants as one crop, every phenotype is documented individually, allowing each one to tell its own story despite sharing the exact same environment, nutrients, lighting and care. Unlike our 8×8 Adventure, where different cultivars grow together, Project Blue Tent focuses on understanding every subtle difference between identical F1 genetics. Every week we watch these plants develop, compare their structures, and discover how each expresses its own unique personality. As we like to say... We are not just growing seeds—we are discovering individual personalities. Today, the spotlight once again belongs to Blue Waffle F1 – Plant A. ──────────────────────── 🌱 Week Four – Time to Shape the Future This week marked another important milestone for Plant A. Last week she was establishing her root system and settling comfortably into her new home. This week she rewarded us with vigorous vegetative growth, producing larger leaves, thicker stems and a noticeably fuller canopy. Although her colour remains a lighter green than I'd ultimately like to see, she continues showing excellent health. Her leaves remain turgid, the growth is vigorous, and every new node arrives neatly stacked with tight internodal spacing. Rather than showing signs of weakness, she's simply telling me she's ready for a little more nutrition. Sometimes the plants speak quietly. Our job is simply to listen before they have to shout. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ The Blue Tent Environment The environment remains one of the biggest strengths of this project. The Zamnesia ecosystem continues keeping everything remarkably stable, allowing me to focus less on chasing environmental fluctuations and more on observing the plants themselves. This week's average conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 67% • ⚗️ pH: 5.8 • ⚡ EC: 1.88 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 450 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 18/6 • ☀️ PPFD: approximately 350 The Phytonaut LED continues providing a beautifully even light distribution across the canopy while the Grow Environment Controller keeps the room running quietly and consistently day after day. Stable environments make it much easier to understand what the plants are actually telling us. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding Update One of the biggest observations this week came from the feeding program. The slightly lighter leaf colour we noticed last week remained present, so rather than waiting for a true deficiency to develop, I decided to make another small adjustment. Hydro A and Hydro B have both been increased to 1.8 ml/L, while Hydro Roots remains unchanged. The goal isn't simply to feed more—it's to provide enough nitrogen and overall nutrition for the plants to return to the rich green colour I'm aiming for while maintaining steady, healthy growth. Another small addition this week was Plagron pH Min. Not because the nutrient solution was unstable—quite the opposite. One thing that has genuinely impressed me with the Plagron Hydro line is just how stable the reservoir remains after mixing. Once everything is dialled in, the pH barely drifts throughout the week, often requiring nothing more than the smallest correction here and there to keep it exactly where I want it. Coming from years of growing in living soil, that's been a pleasant surprise. It makes reservoir management much simpler and allows me to spend more time observing the plants instead of constantly adjusting the solution. Sometimes the best equipment is the equipment you hardly need to think about. ──────────────────────── ✂️ This Week's Lesson – Why I Top My Plants This week was also the perfect moment to introduce one of the most important training techniques I'll be using throughout this grow. Plant A received her first topping. Unlike Low Stress Training (LST), topping is considered High Stress Training (HST) because we're deliberately removing the plant's main growing tip. It's not something I recommend doing on struggling plants. Before topping, I want to see healthy roots, active growth, and a plant that's clearly recovering quickly from everyday development. Although the colour is still a little lighter than I'd prefer, her overall health and vigour made her an excellent candidate. Some growers prefer topping above the second or third node. Personally, I like allowing the plants a little more time to build structure before making that cut. By waiting slightly longer, I'm able to preserve more branches that will later become valuable flowering sites once the SCROG net is installed. My goal isn't simply to create two tops—it's to build a wider, stronger framework that will eventually fill the entire screen with evenly developed colas. Today's cut is an investment in the canopy we'll enjoy several weeks from now. For the job I used the Zamnesia Pruning Scissors, making a clean, precise cut with minimal damage to the surrounding tissue. A sharp, clean cut helps the plant recover quickly while reducing unnecessary stress. Now the race begins. Instead of one dominant leader, several branches will compete for the top position, creating a much more even canopy ready for future training. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Plant A Herself Every week her personality becomes a little clearer. She continues growing in a compact, organised manner, producing broad leaves and beautifully symmetrical branching. The stems continue developing subtle purple pigmentation, while the main trunk is noticeably thickening as she prepares for the next stage of growth. After topping, I expect that energy will now be redirected into the lateral branches, encouraging the wider structure I'm aiming for before introducing the SCROG. She's beginning to look less like a young seedling and more like a plant with a plan. ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead Next week will be all about recovery and redistribution. Rather than expecting explosive vertical growth immediately after topping, I'll be watching how quickly the side branches respond and begin competing for dominance. If everything goes according to plan, the canopy should begin opening naturally, creating the perfect foundation for the SCROG that will arrive later in vegetative growth. We'll also be paying close attention to the new feeding strength, watching for that richer green colour as the increased nutrition begins to take effect. Sometimes the biggest progress isn't measured in centimetres. Sometimes it's measured in balance. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible—from these outstanding Blue Waffle F1 genetics to the complete ecosystem surrounding this grow. Every week the equipment continues proving that it was designed by growers who understand what happens inside a real grow room. A massive thank you as well to Plagron for providing the Premium Growbags and the Hydro nutrient line. The stability of the reservoir and the consistency of the feeding program have made this transition into coco an incredibly enjoyable learning experience. Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to document, learn, share experiences and continue improving together. And finally... Thank you to every single person following this journey. Whether you've been here since the very beginning, recently joined the adventure, leave comments every week, quietly follow along, or even challenge my methods from time to time—you all help make this community stronger. Every conversation, every question and every shared experience teaches us something new. I truly appreciate every one of you. I hope you're all having an amazing week, and I can't wait to show you how Plant A responds to her first topping in the next update. Until then... Growers Love, happy growing, and I'll see you all next week 💙💙💙
