Hey guys! TheIceCreamParlour has been on a little break while we made some major refurbishments. The first 5 plants are now hooked up to the system and we are ready to go. These girls were transplanted yesterday into 6" Cultilene blocks with floraflex feeding blocks on a 12 hour feeding system. Fertigation takes place every half hour for 20 seconds meaning fresh oxygenated solution is being replenished frequently. I'll keep this diary as simple as possible considering it's the first test of my home made feed system.

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 9/22- Week Seven of flower is here and the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower is in her final week before harvest fam! 9/24- Our weather has dramatically cooled off and is a lot drier now with daytime RH running 40% and around 60% at night. I am checking the trichomes daily now and it will be any day now for the call to be made. 9/26- This is looking like the last day for this fine lady to be watered. The trichomes on the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower are 90% white now, with the other 10% either clear or amber which is perfect! 9/27- This is it... CHOP DAY!

🌱 Runtz - Week 2 Update 🌱 The second week of growth is well underway, and so far, the Runtz seedlings are showing great potential, despite a small hiccup earlier in the week. 🌿 This week started with a bit of a scare when I noticed something unusual with my Root Juice fertilizer—it had gone bad, with white spots floating inside, resembling mold. I had already applied it a few times during the first week, which led to some concerns about the soil's health. I took quick action by removing the top layer of the soil and replacing it with fresh soil mixed with mycorrhiza. To combat any lingering issues, I watered the plants with a solution of Clean Soil and Cannazym to cleanse the medium and support root health. Thankfully, the Runtz plants didn’t seem to be affected negatively—they’ve maintained steady growth and appear happy and healthy! It’s a relief to see their resilience. Looking forward to wrapping up Week 2 with bigger, stronger plants and setting the stage for explosive growth in the coming weeks! Grow Conditions (Week 2): 🌞 Light schedule: 18/6 🌱 PPFD: 450 µmol/m²/s 💧 VPD: ~1.0 kPa 🌟 Thanks for following along. Let’s keep the momentum going! 💪

Day 42 Update : Well folks , we are getting towards a finish now. The FFT #8 is still a bud on a stick style so we won't visit that one at all !!. FFT#9 Is now pushing some very nice trichromes out throughout her many mains. The bud structures are solid on her and she jas somewhere nice long colas stacks that are fattening up daily now. She is in her budswell stage now and has a beautiful fruity smell oozing from her. She is starting tonget some nice pinky colour appearing deep in the bud too which makes them look very nice FFT#10 Looks like she is trying to escape with her main stem off tonthe side looking for the sp250. Her buds are also rock solid with a really candy sweet smell She is nice and dark again since I have been adding the megacrop and shogun products and her stack girth indicates she will be a nice yield come harvest. Another 2 winner strains from this range nice work Fastbuds. Now we need to know who they are. lol

Well week 19 and week 9 of flower did start Monday 10/11 but because of my delay in update last week I waited a bit to start the week. The smell is freaking AMAZING!!! Got to sample some more cured stuff and I absolutely love it!!! Still bummed the Black Widow never made it but hopefully next time. The mothers are all flushed, the temps are down, the humidity is down. I'm thinking about dimming the light a bit to see if it helps with ripening. In truth, this grow was all an experiment, lol. Mistakes were made but learned from. But the most important thing is I had alot of fun this time around. There was minimal stress/pressure which I believe is a major part in growing. I feel I really connected with the universe with this! My ultimate goal is quality first, then quantity. Quality will always be one of the pillars of life! I can't get a good pic of the trichomes but there's a decent amount of amber and will be ready for harvest on 10/20 🌕 That's pretty much it, just a waiting, lol. Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️

All looking very well looking to take the ladies down in a couple of days very happy with how they've grown and the structure they have taken can't wait to take them down now and cure it all to get its full potential 🤙✌️

Pues terminando las entradas de los cinco diarios de la temporada y he dejado para el final, la Tropicanna Poison Fast de Sweet Seeds...y como podéis ver algo aquí es muy distinto tanto a las fotodependientes cuanto a las automáticas. Las fast son en mi opinión, una "tierra de nadie" y aún habrá que evolucionar en lo que las genéticas de estas F1, terminan expresando en sus grows Primera de las evidencias. Son raras en su expresión de vegetativo y os explico, solo las Fast en indoor te pueden regalar hojas fan con casi 20 centímetros cada una, pero ojo al dato, no solo una de estas hojas y si un montón de ellas. O sea que el diseño genético de esta cepa F1, te lanza hojas primarias gigantes como si fueran paneles lumínicos y co o si con ellos quisieran chuparse todas las áreas de luces que puedan estar en un armario grow. Otra característica que me tiene patidifuso y que es sencillamente el grosor de tallos, el central es como un árbol y las inserciones de hojas primarias son tremendas en tamaño. Esta F1 tiene una característica que me ha sido posible registrar y que es no haber una definición clara de una cola principal...son ramas que a espacios fueron compitiendo en el particular del aprovechamiento de la posición de los paneles de luces y lo que ha pasado es que nonçe he puesto una malla SCROG, pero el grow por "voluntad" propia generó como que un nivelamento de sus ramas y es casi como ver que este grow tiene como media docena de colas. Los primeros señales de floración son muy específicos, con el grow sacando pistilos tremendamente grandes, lo que representará a la postre cogollos que serán al menos en el tope, también gigantes y todo en este grow Fast es sobredimensionado...es como si fuese una planta gigante y es ya muy claro que por su tamaño existirán internudos muy apartados, pero por la estructura cada punto donde haya floración, habrá un cogollo de dimensiones muy grandes y la pregunta del millón es "que esperar de algo así?"...siempre tendremos unos cogollos rojos y con mucha carga psicoactiva o será esta Tropicanna Poison F1, como una otra también de Sweet Seeds y también F1, que fue la S.A.D. (la afgana delicious) y que fue uno de los humos que menos me gustó (ya os comenté que fue un humo sin mucha imaginación, muy a los aromas y sabores a hachis de toda la vida; y con cogollos no muy buenos en densidad, pese a su tamaño. Y esa es mi reflexión final de la semana, serán las F1 ya plantas que sus genéticas son lo suficiente estables, para que salga algo especial. Para mí, que una F1 pueda llegar a término, dos semanas antes de una fotodependiente nunca ha sido la principal idea en desarrollarlas y aún necesito entender si lo que pasa con las Fast es algo como ese chiste de dos amigos que tenían cada uno un burro y decidieron crear descendencia y uno tenía un burro macho muy grande pero poco empeñado en trabajar y otro tenía la burra, que era pequeña pero muy dispuesta al trabajo y en lo que pararon, el burro nacido que esperaron que fuera grande y muy fuerte para trabajar, les salió casi un "perro" o sea un burro enano y que el curro no le gustaba ni un poco...así que mi pregunta sobre las F1 es un poco, que "burro" nos sale en regla en estos grows??? Las F1 heredan que características por lo general?!? Dudas tengo y no son pocas y como ya os había comentado, a las Fast quizás sea esta la oportunidad de oro para que me decante, por si sigo haciendo apuesta en ellas o las dejo de una vez y en este momento, solo el tiempo podrá decirlo. 420 siempre y el Dios Jah siempre con todos los hermanos growers!

420Fastbuds Cinderella Auto Week 1 of Veg These 2 have sprouted and are off to the races. Both sprouted amazing after 48hrs of being in the soil. Still misting the top soil to keep moist with my hand sprayer but will start to manual water of 500ml every other day this coming week. All in all Happy Growing

Prima settimana di fioritura... tutto procede come deve .. 💪 forza belle piantine mie regalatemi della Apple strudel buona ed efficace per la mia cura🙏✌️

This week the Apricot continues to impress with very even bud development and a strong, healthy structure after the last defoliation. Bud sites are stacking nicely across the entire canopy, with early but already heavy trichome coverage on the sugar leaves. What really stands out is the aroma: it already smells clearly like apricot jam, thick, fruity and unmistakable, not the usual generic sweetness of early flower. The plant shows no stress and reacts very well to the current feeding, so no changes were made. If development continues like this, this looks like a very promising and highly aromatic harvest in the making.

Diese Woche haben sich die Pflanzen von der Entlaubung der letzten Woche erholen dürfen, nach drei Tagen (die ersten drei Bilder) haben sie schon wieder einiges an Blattwerk zulegen können. Des Weiteren ist die Woche nicht viel passiert, ausser dass ich die Bodenfläche zurückgewonnen habe und endlich einen Umluftventilator zum clippen kaufen konnte. Ach und zum Ende der zweiten Blütewoche habe ich einen Komposttee gemacht, den sie am Samstag Abend bekommen haben. Ich hätte schon früher gerne den Tee gemacht, aber ich musste auch hier erstmal alle Sachen kaufen, da ich leider wieder komplett von Null beginnen musste.

My white Runtz plant is definitely the fastest growing plant in the tent. Usually when a plant grows this fast they grow really large and sturdy this plant will most likely be strong enough to be an outdoor plant It’s day 41 from seed and all of the plants are really thriving

Ok next week is just water and the chop. I am done with these plants, they did well and I'm happy with that. Got some real fade and issues all through out the run of this grow but the buds on the plant are looking fantastic. Can't say I am disappointed in them as I legit did not give a fuck about them and they produced. so that's a massive bonus. I will be drying them indoors for the same period as the other plants I was harvesting. give them a little cure and see what they are like.

These ladies are doing so great! Stretching up creating flowers along the way! I may need to trim the lower branches in time in order to not waste necessary energy being a solo but I’m feeling when I run Anesia autos in bigger pots in 6 weeks they’ll be no issues!

Her perfume is so unique this skunky girl already gave me two seeds that germinated today and her smells are amazing

Lots of good growth this week. Continuing to tie branches down as she grows. Doing 1 last tie down session tonight, and starting a gradual switch from 18/6 to 12/12 accompanied by a gradual lowering of the blue spectrum over the next next week.

Flower day 31 - Having a little trouble with the temperature getting higher than I would like because my dehumidifier puts off some heat while it’s running so it’s been a constant struggle to keep the environment in this tent stable! Definitely will not have so many plants next run lol, but all in all the ladies are growing great & I can’t wait to see how they turn out! Thanks for following friends & happy growing!✌️🏼🌱 Flower day 33 - Fed half the plants today with PH at 6.4 to try and keep the humidity down some I’ll water the other half tomorrow!

Solo acqua ph 6 👌🕷️
