Looking closer and closer to being finished with this one.. I lowered the ppms down to 600. May need to go lower most the tops look like they are finishing up. This one is pretty massive filling my 5x5 tent pretty good and the root production out of this 6" net cup is pretty gnarly. Definitely not lacking any quality either. Buds smell delicious and are super sticky.

Will be harvesting today or tomorrow. After one week of flush, I stopped every watering since the start of this week. Now there’s less water inside the pot, and I can definitely feel it by moving it around. Buds are visibly bigger now! See you soon for the final harvest!

Having this plant with the highs and lows makes me appreciate a plant like this and how strong they can be ... The growth has been quick and the bud sites have really started filing in better this second week ..can't wait for the next couple weeks and how big they be..cheers

Her roots are boosted amazing and i transplanted her to 7 galon smart pot And fed her first time 😍😍 Lets see what will happen 🤔🤔

Day 50 - Nearly at her end, some pretty buds have formed showing pink/red colours. Trichomes were checked and they are showing pretty much all milky white at the moment, I saw a few Amber but I'd like to see atleast 30% Amber before they get harvested. The buds are rock hard and full of unique smells which I hope translates to the flavour profile. I will be flushing these girls for the remainder of the grow which shouldn't be too long now. Keep a close eye as I will be uploading some more pictures and videos. Hoping to do a photo shoot once all is ready. Day 54- some bud shots for you all to see the development/progress Follow the YouTube and Instagram on profile here for more. Stay tuned

Sept 21st - last nite was a 1/2 volume h2o/molasses feed - re-shaped the canopy with LST to bring them all back to one height Sept 22nd - looking Oh So healthy, but I’m Going to check run-off, when she’s fed. I’ve never analyzed run-off before. Tonight (or tomorrow) I will check just to see whats coming out the bottom. Feed volumes are enough that there is a bit of run-off at each big feed. - Green Lite for serving 5L Nutes/water tonight. Plant is consuming the water levels being given. Moisture meter and pot weight confirm the levels can continue to be gently increased ( big feed, small feed, big, small etc ! / target 4 days, 2 days, 4, 2 etc ) - Its working in this 10 gallon pot - big power failure for half of city from huge wind storm. Just entered 3rd hour - as I was getting ready to feed her, all the lights in the south end died. Not my fault… 23rd - power outage was for just over 4hours… they will get a little extra light todAy - fed the plant when the power returned at 1:30 Sept 24th - in 2 weeks this plant will be moved to the 2’ tent, to allow the other 4 photo-periods to go into flower. October 8 she moves into a cozy LED environment. - here it is week 8… and it looks like it needs 5 or 6 more anyway. I like surprises, but this one needs some TLC in the home stretch. hows that? Any comments on an extended Auto-grow, from an Express genome? Humans probably lol 25th - LST applied to even-out and lower the canopy further; all good - Pistiles have begun to turn brown/orange while some are still exploding 27th - last day of the week - 2.5L h2o/molasses for early breakfast - next meal 6L, its time - buds are starting to Fiill-Up, definitely gaining a little Girth, for lack of a better word. (Nice way to start next week)

the last week before weather goes bad:/ cold rainy days without sun are coming so cut them next weekend and do the best for this year

1/14: This morning, I did a foliar application of big bloom and fulvic acid, then about 5 hours later I watered them with about a half-gallon of rainwater each and added armor si, humic acid, endoboost myco/tricho, liquid molasses, and a bunch of cal-mag. Today, I also I wired up and mounted my new samsung sun board strips (660nm/730nm) and my Solacure FlowerPower UVB fixture. I'm running the deep red/far red bud boosters a few hours per day right now, but will run them for the entire photoperiod once I start flowering them. I'll run the UVB for 4 * 15-minute sessions a day for the full flowering cycle, and if they don't protest too much I'll increase each session by 5 minutes and evaluate again. Some strains are more forgiving than others and I've got 5 different strains in this space...so really not sure much time I'll get away with exposing them to the deadly rays without damaging them too much...😈 1/15: I received one of the rapid led/growmau far red initiator pucks today. With the placement of my UVB light, I'm realizing I'll need another far red puck to have even and intense far red coverage, so I'm ordering another with Prime delivery and waiting to start flowering until I receive it. I sprayed them down really well with ph adjusted rainwater tonight to rinse off nutrient build-up from foliar applications. 1/16: I'm really excited to try flowering under 14/10. I grew photos indoors on an off for 15 years before I semi-retired. If I added up all the additional flowering time I could have done through the years if LED technology existed, I'd have had an extra truckload of bud to smoke. I did another application of Axiom Harpin a|b Proteins this evening, right before dark. I'm expecting a big growth burst this week, leading up to the flower stretch. I really need them to trigger under 14/10 within 4 or 5 days🙏 ...if not, I'll switch to 13/11 and wait a few more days🙏😟..if still no pistils are poppin, I'll go to 12/12 and chalk it up as bad luck or varietal indifference to Pr and Pfr manipulation. 1/17: I fed each of them about 3/4 gallon of full strength veg nutes. This will be the last. I'll go with half-strength veg and half-strength bloom for a week, then go with full strength bloom nutrients until I start flushing them in 6-8 weeks. 1/18: I installed the second far-red flowering initiator today and got all my timers configured for flowering: ========================================= timer#1 - power strip with qb's and red boosters   10:00am -12:00am  timer#2 - (dual/independent setting)             sideA- 3-way cube with uva bars                   10am - 3pm                    7pm - 11pm             sideB- flowerpower uvb                    1pm - 1:15pm                    4pm - 4:15pm                    7pm - 7:15pm                    11pm - 11:15pm timer#3 - far red pucks   11:00pm - 12:15am timer#4 - sub-canopy tube   10am  - 1pm    3pm  -  6pm    8pm  - 11pm ======================================== I also did some testing on the timers and sealed myself into the closet to check for any light leaks. All good.👌 1/19: Looks like the FIM job didn't take on one of them..but she's got perfect symmetry. WIll probably have to just top her again next week...gonna be a tall one I think. Tonight is their first long night. It's ON!👍 1/20: I watered them today with about a half gallon each. I'm seeing calcium and magnesium deficiences here and there, so added some boomerang and heavy cal-mag-Fe along with liquid molasses, humic acid, and endoboost myco. I also foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. That's it for week 4-

In einer Woche wird angefangen mit spühlen. Ansonsten läuft es perfekt. Ich kann es kaum erwarten!!!

Bueno resumiendo cookies gelato es una variedad híbrida muy fácil de cultivar pero ojo, cuidado con los últimos riegos si no queréis perder cosecha por moho. Lo demás de 10 pegada heavy sabor increíble, cogollos duros como rocas y bañados de una gran capa de polen. El ambiente del secado se mantuvo en 23 grados de media y la humedad estuvo por debajo de los 45% en todo momento. Poco más la verdad estuve encantado de poder cultivar una genética tan potente . Un saludazo que paséis un final de año increíble y por supuesto buenos humazooos💨💨💨.

Took a while for these plants to get to size .. I had like 20 plants in a 4x4 closet so I had to keep all these in a shot glass for literally 3 weeks they were dying for a bigger pot!

Week 2 is going strong! The lady's thriving and looking robust 💪🏼. Been feeding her with the full Canna suite, keeping the pH dialed in at 5.8, and watering every 3-4 days. So far, everything's smooth—no major updates yet. Starting LST next week

Hope you are well. Thanks for taking the time. Little defoliation to focus growth.

Hi guys after 10 day that the twins popped up i can tell they are growing strong!! My twins growing better than other Crystal Candy who i have. We will see what's happen this week and in the end off the week i will up date my diary. I notice one of twins cover up the other one and so i have decide to tie this. From friday i will introcuce sensi grow a+b because I think the nutrients inside the soil will be finished. For you the twins are growing good? Look at the video guys! (sorry for my english😬) DAY 14 My twins grow vey hard and in the same way. I start wirh sensi grow a+b with ec 0,8 and they appreciated. We will see the next week the height for start the bloom phase. Happy growing for all 🙏 GGG

She's looking super beautiful after the stretch,she looks strong and ready for full flower let's see how this beautiful California girl performs! 💚 🌱 ✌️

the last week was really sunny again, which of course pleased the beautiful plant very much. in the last week she only got fertiliser once. biobizz top-max, bloom and grow. 24 hours before the harvest, she was given an ice-cold rinse and a few ice cubes. (does that really help?) the buds have grown very compact and firm. the odour is intense. wet weight at the end was 159 grams. but measured generously. all in all i am very satisfied with the grow. at the beginning she had to fight with the german weather, but she has survived all strains and stress.

Transplanted yesterday into 3gal container Probably going to be a monster by the end of the week will begin tying down with pipe cleaners check my other grow to see how the LSD seed has been doing

What is up you sexy displays of humanness? It's week something lol.. 9 I think. I always forget if a week is passed then counted or vice versa lol. The plants look waaaaay better from the first time I flowered. I think the environmental controls like the AC and the light distance are finally all getting locked in. I could be messing up nutrients but based on what I see I'm not burning or underfeeding to my knowledge. I'm praying for that last fattening week for these things to bulk up because I'm pretty sure they have maybeeeeee 2 weeks then a 3-day flush. Yall are the experts though so feel free to weigh in. Especially with the plants looking all over the place. Ill bust out the electronic microscope for some trichome pics next week closer towards harvest time. I keep reading it's a long flower and they still have a lot of white pistons. Plants are hella icier though compared to the first run, they look stickier, and overall I'm feeling more accomplished. I can't tell if I'm leagues away from pulling 1 lb per plant. Now the right light...... ugh.. idk why but I was trying to get my damn BN link dual timer programmed bc I have the closet in there still vegging and once I plugged everything in that right light had half the board go out again. This happened a while back and after I've checked all the connections it just randomly came back on one day and I have not questioned it over the months. Kinda pissed I cant have 1 smooth day but that's life I guess haha. oh weird question but my rooms are completely sealed. they don't really have ducting or new air pumping in. Could the plants be suffocating themselves getting that big and flowering in a closed room? I've heard the air you breathe is more than enough most time and I don't want to burn unnecessary money but If they are logically just not getting enough Co2 to transpire then.. ya.. you get my point lol. Oh and I scratched the pk 13/14 bc i felt like I was pushing my luck with it only recommended for 1 week and also it's about the end of my knowledge so I figured cutting something extra was the safe bet. the leaves are all dark too

Day 50 – Officially Entering Bloom 🌸 We’ve crossed a beautiful milestone—flowering has officially begun! The pre-flowers are stacking up with intent, and the entire structure is shifting focus to its reproductive mission. It’s a joy to witness the transition as the energy starts moving into the upper canopy. This FastBuds CBD strain is showing phenomenal resilience and grace despite the unpredictable UK weather. Over the past few days, the plant faced intense rain and strong wind gusts, which even knocked it off its perch. But just like a warrior, she got back up—no broken limbs, no complaints, just a stronger stem and a deeper green. I’ve now placed the pot inside a larger container to stabilise it and protect against slug patrols during cold, damp nights. A simple hack, but one that offers big peace of mind! This grow is intentionally minimalistic. No tents, no synthetic boosters, no artificial support—just super soil, pH-balanced tap water, natural sun, and trust in the process. Every drop of rain and every beam of sunlight becomes part of the story. It’s an outdoor symphony powered by patience and the pure intent to create top-quality CBD oil—without the psychoactive effects, but with all the healing potential. She’s now standing tall at approximately 70 cm, stretching with elegant confidence and building a promising framework of bud sites. There’s something incredibly humbling about letting nature lead. And with a strain like this from FastBuds.com, it’s a rewarding partnership between growers and genetics. More to come, but for now—we bloom.
