Getting close!! Chopped a bunch of used up leaves off, took some microscope shots yesterday, got a boom arm coming so I don't have to rely on my steady hand for the microscope shots but still looks cloudy/clear w/o an amber to be seen when looking at the trichomes as of Monday. Pistils are still mostly white but rapidly advancing. Fastbuds advertises a chop day between 63 and 70 so we're in the window and heading in the right direction. A chop before the end of the week is possible.

Chop day. Everything is looking and smelling incredible. The range of smells I've got so far are: floral, grape, blueberry, gas, burnt rubber, tangerine, funk. Everything appeared fully mature beside the Cambodian x Meat Breath and Pak Man so decided this was the best time to cut them down.

Another week down and the girls are thriving despite the hot temps! 😍 I continue to be amazed with how these seeds and strains from Divine Seeds are developing. 😇 How easy is to grow healthy and strong plants! 💪 Introducing night shots to see them frothing 😎 "How 'bout them apples?" 😏

This was my 1st photoperiod grow on growdiaries and I'm glad I tried these Fast flowering photoperiods for it. Big thanks to Heather and the Fastbuds team. I have grown the Gorilla Cookies auto before so this photoperiod fast version has something to live up to. She grew way taller then i was expecting, hence the many bends and breaks. To be honest she was great to grow and the favourite plant of the grow. Because this grow was going so good I decided to switch back to photoperiods for the next few grows i just wish i had left her in veg for 1 more week. Total dry weight for the grow, decent buds=136g Light power Total= 200.43Kw 18hrs for 28 days = 504hrs 12hrs for 67 days = 804hrs Total hours for lights= 1308hrs 200.43÷1308=0.153Kw/hr average. Average 153w/hr Total g/W=0.89g/W Power used for grow=508.78Kw @0.30p =£152.63 Each gram cost £1.12 The buds have been curing for nearly 2 weeks so I haven't had a sample yet. There will be more pictures added once I try the buds and write up a smoke review but for now I'll just leave a video of the grow and a picture. Thanks to all who have viewed my diaries and a big thanks to all that posted likes and comments, it's much appreciated.

I’ll be honest, for my first grow and harvest, I’m stoked to have pulled this much weed off of these plants. Though I did dry them too fast with my given conditions so the planty “green” smell, isn’t quite gone yet with a 4 week cure and going. That’s fine though. Everyone that smokes this, loves it. Really heavy body high with a couch locking effect. Munchies set in heavy shortly after lol I personally don’t smoke much but I offer some to everyone that comes through my door. I would for sure run these again but maybe in larger pots. A bunch of folks say that these only require 1 gallon pots but I can tell that they would’ve for sure grew larger if given the space. 10/10 would recommend to beginners.

This was the girls last week! I decided to call them finished on day 63 the tricomes are almost all cloudy, with a small amount of amber. I’ve learned that they continue to degrade as you dry and cure your flower, so I’m trying something new for me, and pull them a little earlier than I usually would. In addition, after watching a podcast (Dude Grows Show) if you don’t know, check it out… I decided to run the lights for 18 hours instead of 12/12 for the last 5 days before harvest. The idea behind this, is to stress the plant enough to increase its natural sunblock/protections, which would be terpenes and tricomes just before you harvest, while also possibly quickening the finishing time for your plant. The group was discussing the benefits of this (listed above) while some already had implemented these practices when finishing plants. The recommended time to run extra light time would be around the last 5-9 days of the plant, without having any nanners or weirdness happening with your plants. Anyways, they finished amazing, sticky, stinky and heavy ❤️ the Terps are crazy on these strains….Harvest details to come. Thanks for stopping by 💚🇨🇦👊

G'day Farmers, Quite an eventful week, did a lot of training! we've still only got preflowers, but I suspect this week will be the last week of Veg. I hope she starts stretching soon, she's still very short... at the end of the week I moved her into my flower tent, The next week will be spend babying this girl, watching her reservoir like a hawk as I neglected that part this week. Check back next week to see if we're still vegging!

Ladies and gentlemen, we are now entering the last week of flowering and finishing her 6th month alive! I got attached to her, will be difficult saying goodbye, BUT, these juicy buds are so worth it. I've been flushing her with 3 liters of water every 2 days, and despite one cloudy day the sun appeared most of the time. I hope she gets a little fatter this last week. The smell is incredible. Strong enough to notice when you're near, but not strong enough my neighbors will get it, perfect! I assume in a tent she'd be stinking everything up with her sweet, sweet smell. I can only imagine how her kief will be 🤩 Thanks for visiting and see you next week for one final update!

Hab ihr ehrlich gesagt nach den anfänglichen Problemchen nicht so viel liebe geschenkt. Nur mal mit Fish Mix von BioBizz gedüngt, man sieht eindeutig Sie ist hungrig. Finde sie hat aber ihre anfänglichen Probleme überwunden. Ich habe also gestern angefangen meine Pflanzenkohle zu aktivieren, dafür habe ich Osmosewasser mit Fish, Grow-Mix und etwas Wurmhumus eingelegt und öfter umgerührt. Normalerweise soll die Kohle bis zu 2 Wochen ziehen, minimum sollen wohl 24-48 Stunden sein. Ich habe in den Stopftöpfen wieder eine Drainage mit Blähton. Die Erde ist gemixt mit 5 L Wurmhumus, 20L Light-Mix, 12L Kokos, 3L Pflanzenkohle. Als Langzeitdünger habe ich 3 Biotaps NL reingebröselt.

11/02 - Pre-harvest 109g of wet bud (tare weight of plate 358g). Letting the rest go for some more days. Light lowered to 28cm. 16/02 - Plant fully harvested. Total 209 g wet with all the stem you see on the last pic. Hang drying in 20-21°C, 55-60% humidity. Strong hay smell of the pre-harvest buds, not yet ready. Will update final dried weight later to see the results. 19/02 - After 8 days of drying, the pre-harvested buds have been trimmed & moved to curing stage in jar. 24g dry out of that batch (was 109g wet). Monitoring humidity in the jar to keep around 62%. Still leaving the second harvest to hang and dry 2 more days. 21/02 - Total dried result: 24g nice top buds 13g second grade buds from second harvest 12g loose popcorn buds for edibles Total 49 g / 57 watts 0.86 g/watt ratio. Not too bad, but can and will be improved next run. Lessons learnt: 1. Definitely will build some activated carbon filter to decrease smell. 2. More lollipopping / defoliation on lower parts at start of flower to decrease loose popcorn. 3. More balanced nutes in pre/mid flower to avoid extensive yellowing. 4. Adding bone meal to soil from start to let it degrade fully. 5. Applying 4 times of bottom feed to avoid drying out the bottom of pot. 6. Never let lights closer than 27cm. 7. Maybe try 20/4 schedule. 8. Might let it go beyond week 16 to let trychomes start to amber. Luckily the hay smell is totally gone during the cure. Very happy with the results. Thx for the support & interest! Good luck to all! See ya at the next run!

One of my babies got a light burn. Introduced light misting of diluted 3% hydrogen peroxide to the feed as well. Plants have been positively responsive. Will continue this throughout the grow and probably the next depending on how this batch goes 💚
