I had to harvest my Blue Dream plant early due to some larger mold spots I found on the buds. To prevent the mold from spreading to my other plants, I acted quickly and made the cut. Unfortunately, this meant I couldn't give her a proper flush. Despite the abrupt end, the aroma of the buds is fantastic, and I'm optimistic about the taste. During trimming, the scissors became sticky with resin, which is a good sign of potency. I carefully harvested bud by bud to ensure I didn't miss any mold-affected areas. Unfortunately, the main bud had the worst mold spot, so I had to take it apart. It's puzzling since they were never outside during rain and only had to contend with morning dew. Overall, I'm pleased with this grow and feel humble. It was an incredible journey filled with challenges and triumphs. I'm looking forward to enjoying the fruits of my labor and learning from the experience. Thank you to all my growmies for following along and being part of this learning experience. Your support means a lot. Stay tuned to see how my remaining two trained ladies turn out. One love, one community. ❤️ Harvest Report: Blue Dream (Update 09.08.) After 9 days of drying, I brought the Blue Dream buds into my apartment for the final trim before jarring. The initial yield was 40 grams, but during my last inspection, I discovered more mold spots, this time buried deep within the buds. Unfortunately, all the larger colas were affected, forcing me to take the buds almost completely apart. In the end, I managed to salvage 21 grams of pure, healthy buds without any mildew. I also set aside 6 grams of “quarantine” buds, which I’ll dry separately. Sadly, I lost 13 grams to mildew—a tough blow, but one of the harsh realities of outdoor growing. It’s disheartening, especially since three other friends experienced similar losses this season. Honestly, I’m not sure what I could have done differently, aside from discarding the plant earlier. But even with these setbacks, if the cured buds taste as good as they smell, I’ll still consider this grow a success. The genetics from Fastbuds proved to be solid, and I recognize that the challenges I faced were largely due to environmental factors and my own decisions. This was a learning experience, and despite the issues, I'm happy with what I've achieved.

I found this seed in bud that I harvested from my Barney's Liberty Haze plant. It was grown in my grow room and you can see my GrowDiary log of that plant. I am not sure exactly how I ended up with seeds... maybe there was light or temperature stress which resulted in a herm. In any case, I decided to grow this seed as a fun experiment. I didn't even know if the seed would germinate... but it grew just FINE. I didn't top it, or give it any special treatment. I guess you could say she grew 'native' or 'au natural.' I have never grown outside before, but I had space in the garden, and the seedling looked healthy, so I hardened her off and popped her into the dirt. She ended up going into a huge monster of a plant. Standing over 9 feet tall I had to laugh out loud each time I climbed the ladder to inspect her top cola LOL. I had so much fun growing this plant. I called her Majestic Haze (we live on Majestic Drive) because I'm not sure if Barney's would want me calling her Liberty Haze. I can't verify the genetics for sure :) I wonder how plant breeders handle those kinds of things??... This bud is fun for parties and conversation. It starts out with an energetic vibe and then settles into a relaxed chill stoned feeling. We vaped our dried bud, and then we tried some of our hand rolled hash... then we settled in for the night. Woke up a sit high still LOL but it's Saturday and we don't need to go anywhere so it's all good LOL... This one is the bud of choice for house parties and silly Netflix watching. PS if you haven't see The Good Place... you need to get stoned and watch it. The total dried weight of bud from this plant was just under one pound @ 310g and we also ended up with around 120 g of frosty trim. We also rolled up about a gram of hash which has some serious kick :)

2nd week of flower.... Stretching well and very even thanks to the scrog as one branch will always seem to go crazy with its stretch so just weave it back through the net and bring it back down to canopy height. 3 ml 3ml grow n bloom were now up too and no burnt tips so I think were in the sweet spot at the moment and reading her very well!! A field of tops is what we like and a field of tops is what we see thanks to all our lst bending and tying down and then the introduction of the net has given us our desired result and I would give it a solid 8 out of 10 for execution this time round so I'm really happy with how it's going so far. The genetics are resilient and resistant to alot so if your harm your wedding gelatos you really need to think about dialing it back a touch and giving her the freedom she wants. Smell is amazing and we ain't even got bud yet!!! @rqs they really have done wonders creating this strain and I reccomend to all gardeners high-ly 😉 The rqs easy boost organic nutrition: (only using on one plant as a test run) Has worked brilliant so far throughout these first 7 weeks but have noticed some fading on a couple fan leaves.. I had the option of topping it up by sprinkling more granules on the top soil or using the easy booster and I chose the latter and within a day or so I'm noticing the health is fully restored and all new growth is a lovely healthy green.... half way through my verdict is it's a very good product and makes feeding time easy and quicker for the gardener so at this moment in time I can say it's something worth investing in.. Check back next week for updates! Happy gardening

Because of a short vacation, I couldn't water the plant adequately. Unfortunately, it was a bit underwatered when I returned. 06.10.24: 2700 ml 07.10.24: 2200 ml 08.10.24: 2500 ml, Some more LST. Bend the four side branches more to the side and leveled the two tops. 09.10.24: 2000 ml 10.10.24: 2000 ml, Soft defo from the bottom to get easier access when watering. 11.10.24: 2000 ml 12.10.24: 2500 ml, I might need to lollipop, defoliate and more LST the plant soon.

Hello my friends! Almost weekend, are you ready for it ? I can't wait, the work drained me soooo much this week! Good that this little Titan gives me so much joy and satisfaction every time im back home! Back to us! Today is friday and marks the last day of her 10th week. Today is kinda important, is exactly 77 days since the plant showed up from the soil. RQS is saying that normally this plant is ready to harvest in about 70 to 75 days. Mine is already 77 and is not ready yet. As you can see from the picutres and clips especially the last ones of this week...you can see that her trichomes are not quite ready yet. The trichomes look like they are 85%/90% ready right now, as I am writing this post. The pictures and clips are also from this morning, is all fresh material. Most of the trichomes are cloudy but you can still see that few of them are not ready yet, also there is no amber colour at all. All of this it must mean that the plant can go couple days more. This week and the previous one I was reading and checking online about this plant and her previous grows. I understood that the plant in reality takes a little longer to get FULLY ripe and ready. A little over 80 to 85 days. I will let her run for another week more or less, today is day 77. For peace of mind I am checking the trichomes every 2 days to don't miss it or be late. It would be a shame to cut it down right now. Why? I can see the buds getting bigger and bigger everyday! She's getting thicker literally in front of my eyes, especially in this late phase of flowering. I can see the buds increasing in size day by day. I am sooooo happy! Dope! So harvest probably next week! WATERING This week I've started the FLUSH cycle. The plant got 6 L of plain water adjusted to 6.3 pH and splitted in 3 watering sessions by 2L each. In all 3 waterings the drained water was around 1 liter. NUTRIENTS No nutrients this week, same story next week. Just plain water till harvest, the water will be adjusted to the correct pH. No more no less. The harvest should fall exactly on the day that marks 2 weeks of no nutrients. So actually with this we are really spot on! Perfect I would say. LIGHTNING The light is always 100%, 24/7. The only update here is that at the beginning of this week I lowered the light about 10 centimeters for this last days of flowering. Is an experiment...anyway my light is only 70 watts in the end. So I am not too worried about it, probably I should lower it couple of week ago to give that extra boost to the plant. But it is what it is, now is too late ahahahah. Anyways talking about the light...before I've got 25 centimeters between the led lamp and the plant, now is about 15 centimeters of distance. TRAININGS NO MORE training techniques were applied to the plant. At the beginning of this week I REMOVED all the LST that was trapping and keeping her strapped to the pot. I wanted the plant to BE FREE during the last two weeks of her life. Like a little treat and mercy for this beautiful prisoner ahhahaha. Removing the LST I allowed the plant to lift up a little bit more her branches. In this way the buds sites went up and closer to the led lamp, closer about 10/20%. Maybe is not much but in the end everything counts on the scale. We will see the results. The height of the plant didn't change in this last weeks, it reached 48 cm and stayed there. Actually after I released her from the LST last week, it gained 2 cm. So now at the end of her life the plant is 50 cm tall. The smell is strong and pungent, refreshing somehow. Very pleasant, I love it. OVERALL Everything is going well, just a little bit late on the schedule. The patience is the key for good and big buds! I CAN SEE THE FINISH LINE, WE ARE ALMOST THERE. See you next week for the final update! Stay safe y'all!
