Recovery at its finest, that's what you will see on week 4 around here! Guess who's loving the CO2 with high temperature? Thats right, all plants are! The comparison of last week with this week have such a difference, on day 24 I introduced a DIY CO2 bottle, the recipe consist in: -CO2- 2 cups of sugar 1 tablespoon of yeast 1 tablespoon of baking soda 1 later of warm water Mix all ingredients on a bottle, make a nail hole on the cap shake a little (when shaking put your finger on the nail hole, you should hear a hissssss when you release the hole) use it when lights are on, increase temperature to 30-35C, watch for high levels of humidity, and voila! Any other details you want to know ask way :) I haven't started any LST yet, I am waiting for a bit more growth to start bending, I have to make sure all 5 plants will have enough space inside this 2x4 tent. All suggestions are welcomed :) Thats is for now, Stay Lit folks!

What a gorgeous strain. Full of purple hue and terps for days with the petroleum, gas, sweet grape. We will see how it changes after a long cure. Chopped her on the 11th week of flower at about 15% amber. Has a pretty heady Stoney high, euphoria, body buzz. Not a couchlock but definitely sedated but functional.

This plant vegged like a champion. 6 weeks and she was ready to go. I put her in a 5 gallon so she exploded when she went to flower and gave a great harvest.

2nd week and I can tell one thing for sure. I'm really bad gardener 😬 Had to leave for 5 days and that was let's say suboptimal. Another proof that this strain is able to live with little to none attention. Changed the light hours to 20/4 to let them rest for at least a little time. Last big change was me finally finishing my controll system so even without me being present conditions were almost constant to preseted values (temp +/-0.2°C and humidity +/- 6%) Really happy with their grow so i hope it all be OK.

Day 77 (f15): The Runtz is stretching considerably more than the Kosher Dawg (which will need to be elevated - probably by putting planks under the dwc reservoir). Ran out of Plagron nutrients and couldn't find anymore! So I bought the only ones available at the hydro store 'hy-pro hydro A & B), these nutrients are much less concentrated and I already used up near to half a litre of nutrients on my reservoir change day (yesterday)! The yellow tips on the Runtz seem to be light stress, as during the res change the nutrient dosage was lowered and ph maintained between 5.7-6.1 and she shows she is hungry but the yellow tips got slightly worse to the light is 15cm higher now. Nice strong vegetative smell releases when I rub any part of the plants :D It is getting difficult to take pictures where you can actually see the size of the plants because the space is so packed! Can't wait to do the heavy defoliation after the stretch (in like 5-7 days from now)! Day 80 (f18) update: 10cm stretch since day 15, she is doing well! Internode distance is larger than I'm used to, but she also stretched more than I expected so I'll probably remove all the lower bud sites during the heavy defoliation. Light stress (or nute burn) symptoms barely progressed, I think putting the light from 35 to 55cm from the highest growth shoots helped. Since she is so bushy and definitely the biggest volume plant I have ever had I am very curious to see what she REALLY looks like after the defoliation!! Day 80 (f20) update (heavy defoliation): The stretch has slowed down and the buds have a slight fresh sweet citrus aroma, took 90 minutes to defoliate her and remove the 'sucker' branches and bud sites on the bottom 40% of the plant. Changed water reservoir to a mix with a bit of bloom booster (Plagron green sensation).

Day 1- 22/10/21 at 13:00pm I have started germination by putting 20 Afghan kush auto seeds into a glass of water for 24 hours the I will place them on a plate with wet kitchen paper till they are ready to pot!!!!! Day 2- 23/10/21 seeds have been transferred onto a plate with at kitchen paper!!! Day 4-25/10/21 most the seeds have popped. Most of them I am putting in pots now and the slower ones tomorrow!!! Day 5- 26/10/21 all the seeds have now been potted and placed into the tent!!!! Day 6-27/10/21 first sign of plants coming through about 6 out of the 20 have popped out!!!! Day 7-28/10/21 almost every seed is out and now we move onto the Vegative stage check out out the video!!

Overall this was good strain to grow and I would try it again on maybe an outdoor grow to see how big it gets. The bud structure could have been a little better and it wanted to bush out alot so maybe not the best for scrog. Seems like its a bit of a heavy feeder too and I may have went a little light on nutrients. It wasn't as dense as i thought is was going to be but that was most likely from my environment.

They are reaching the end of stretch. I noticed light stress on #1 so I raised the lights. I also added a 3rd trellis to help support these girls so they can focus on growing! They got big fast, and those leaves are huge so I had to go in and remove some of the bigger leaves that was shading out my lover canopy

Looks like this is the least week of Veg before she flips into flowering, a few hairs gave me the idea and @SCGrow's page confirmed it.

Evening fellow growers hope you all had a great weekend. Massive shout to James @RQS for supplying the beans for my current grow. ⚠️ I add photos as the week progress so please stop by and check out the progress. Day 29 the start of week 5, we have started to flower so I will add some flower nutrients this week. Really happy with how these 2 lady’s are progressing. Very bushy low riders. Let’s see what this week brings. Day 31, watered today, upped the amount in water too 1 ltr as these girls are growing. Also added bloom into the mix. I will take some current photos either later today or tomorrow. ✌️ Day 32, just leaving these ladies to it. Low riders 👊🏻✌️ Day 35, the end of the first weeks flower. The front one is nice and short with an even canopy the back on I topped and haven’t really done much else with as didn’t want to stress her anymore. She is loving life. Watered with plain water last night will most probs give another grow feed then onto the bloom. Been rather cold the last few days so hopefully they will be ok. ✌️ Once again thank you all for stopping by and showing the love. ✌️

The stretch phase is officially over, and now the plant is shifting its energy toward trichome production!🌱 I’ve started noticing a light scent developing, though it’s still not very intense yet. I expect that to change in the coming weeks. I did a light defoliation to improve airflow and light penetration, and I plan to do another round in about two weeks. Interestingly, the fan leaves are starting to take on a slight reddish hue—curious to see how that develops! 💪😊 So far, everything is looking great, and I’m excited to watch the buds bulk up in the next phase!

It’s been plenty of work for me this week,,with final LST moves made,,which is always tricky trying to space evenly,, plenty of lumens making their way to the right spots now after a good defoliation session,,and this girl has no excuses,,,,!!! backed off the bloom food a little aswell due to some unwanted discolouration ,,but gave her a good flush with some fresh water and great kelp tonic i got my hands on,,,Day 60 now 👍😎

17.05. I don't have anything special to say, of course the weather is terrible... it's 6-7 at night, 15-16 during the day, so they're inside... the temperature inside is 20-21 during the day, at night from 15 to 17 when it's this cold... the plants were exactly 3 weeks old yesterday, today they entered the fourth week and most likely they will wait inside for the fifth week as well because the weather is terrible and there is no point in transplanting yet. Stay High!

BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows. The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level. My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!! I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for. I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless. I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest. My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake. I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably. I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks. Thanks to everyone & all your comments. Wishing you all the best. One Love ❤️

Rain for a whole week. Been pishhh

Week 4 transplanting 2 today

Man this week has been taking forever, my theory is it will only get slower relative to harvest just because my excitement. I top dressed with about 2 inches of worm castings with an eyeballed mix of 2tbps of bone meal (3-14-0, bloom fert.), 1.5-2tbps of Gaia green all purp.(4-4-4, I don’t have an actual potassium fert. Like leingbenite So I use this), 3tbps of dr earth kelp meal (1-.05-2 has many different vitamins, amino acids, carbohydrates) and 2tbps of mykos (for microbiology inoculation and nutrient uptake/upkeep). So I every time I water I have this old 2gallon water tin that I usually fill up about a quarter to half way full. Using this amount of water and the 5 gallon bucket of my soil mix makes my watering schedule once every 3 days (on average). I do use bottle nutrients but it’s mainly for the supplementing. For feeding I use 2-3ml to half a gallon for all bottle nutrients, I have never gone over, and I have never had deficiency’s that can hinder plant development. Deficiency's: PSA: Now if anyone happens to read and actually look at my plants please do look closely and maybe let me know if you see something that I have missed since I’m still very new. I noticed my plant was having a cal mag issue so that’s why I top dressed with worm castings, I also top dressed with about 3tbps of azomite (I feel using azomite it may help with all those unnoticeable deficiency’s that a new grower might miss). I’ve been noticing on some of the leaves the very tips are showing discoloring, since the color is still so vibrant mostly I can rule out nitrogen, phosphorus, Iron, manganese, and sulphuric. It’s still very early stage so I did an extremely light foliage feeding (in the dark to prevent UV damage) of 2ml of big bud, big bloom, and tiger bloom, mixed into half a liter of water, I then emptied the spray bottle and sprayed with tap water just to make sure there’s no nute burning. Today I fed the plant through water amendments with 3ml of big bud, 3ml of bud candy, 3ml of big bloom, and 2ml of tiger bloom;(my theory is hopefully the nutrient deficiency’s will go away) My soil mix is pretty basic. 40% coco, 10% perlite, 10% well composted chicken manure, 20% black gold compost, 20% worm castings. I’m not going to put the fertilizer amendment percentage to be honest I eye ball it but there’s a rough general measurements that I do.
