I have been calling this my frost throne this week. When you are look at it a certain way it looks like a throne and the frost on her is incredible. The stacking of bud sites is very impressive I am hoping by the time it is done it is just a bunch of huge buds. Showing a little nute burn on a few tips this coming week will probably cut the ph perfect trio and give it some extra flush time and see how it runs this week. Today will be getting big bud and bud candy in its feed, then flush til Wednesday then flush til saturday. See how that goes!

Hello everyone and welcome to week 9 and day 57 for these two Fast Buds Strawberry Bananana Autos. These two have gone mad! Beyonce is 81cm tall and well into flower as you can see. Solange on the other hand was 118cm tall and had passed the light so I super cropped her two tallest colas a few days ago. She is now 98cm Fertigated 10l 4 days ago and 7.5l today. Day 60: Fertigated 10l Day 62: The plants are now too big and/or heavy with bud to move out of the tent to photograph, and so with thanks to @growbigorgohome who suggested it, I have got a selfie stick to do in-tent photography. It's not great but it's better than nothing! Hopefully the videos will show plenty of details. Anyway I am starting to routine again now, the plants haven't gone more than 3 days without feeding, and I should be back to every other day again now. These two girls are really amazing. Beyonce is way ahead in terms of bud development, but Solange vegged longer and stretched more she was so massive I had to super-crop two colas! Anyway they are really motoring along now, I think Beyonce will be ready 2 weeks before Solange. Despite it is only day 62 we are rapidly approaching the end game here.

Day 15 (7/1) - CP is thriving the day after its FIM session. The growth looks good to me..?? I donโ€™t honestly know or have any experience to go off of. It grew a little taller and I was able to adjust the tie on it so more underleaf was exposed. This all took place on day 14. These pictures are the result. I like how much new green I see under after just one night. nothing has been fed to 5he plant other than calmag in water PHed out. Iโ€™m watering about every other day. Day 16 (7/2) - The plant seems to be doing well after the FIMing. I adjusted the LST this morning and these are the pictures that I took tonight. Iโ€™m seeing a lot of tiny growths all over the place. Iโ€™ve kept the plant below or just at around 6 inches this whole time. I have a ScrOG net that Iโ€™m waiting to put in to see if the plants are going to get any taller. They are two weeks old and still look pretty small to me. Any feedback would be appreciated. First time growing and I figured Iโ€™d go big or go home with the training. Day 17 (7/3) - She is doing very well and is producing new growth daily. And all existing growth seems to be progressing as well. The top of the plant is still around 6 inches due to all the LST and Iโ€™m looking forward to seeing if itโ€™s actually going to shoot up. I wonโ€™t be able to provide an update tomorrow but I am looking forward to sharing the picture I take Sunday evening on Day 19. Day 20 (7/6) - I spent a few more days away from the grow than originally planned but everything seems to have turned out well. When I got back I gave the plants a nice watering after about two or three days the humidity in the room was a little low so I also refilled the humidifier. I am liking the growth that Iโ€™m seeing Iโ€™m seeing lots of new growth in the middle and underneath but Iโ€™m still not getting the height that I want. I know the height will come with flowering but looking at other grow journals Iโ€™ve noticed that most plants are larger than mine at this stage. Tomorrow will be the last day of week three and then of week four. Day 21 (7/7) - Last day of week 3! Iโ€™m hoping to see some growth really start happening because Iโ€™ve enjoyed watching it grow so far. It wasnโ€™t until today that I had the realization that I was growing in fabric pots so I was actually able to fold over the edges of the pots this entire time. I ended up holding the edges of the pot today and much more of the side of the plant is being hit by the light now. Iโ€™m hoping to see some big improvements over this first night with this adjustment. The plant still has not been fed Iโ€™ve been in the little bit that was added when it was first planted. I did not give the plants a water today but I will be giving them a drink tomorrow. Tomorrow is the start of week four ๐ŸŒฑ

3/14: Came back from a 4 day vacation to a lot of dry, wilted, dead leaves on Amnesia. Trainwreck is super starved as well. My automatic watering system didn't kick on, and the humidifier ran out of water within 24 hours, so there's that. It may be for the better though, as the PH of the nutrients had risen to 7.5. I tossed that mix, and made another 2 gallons of half strength nutes, molasses and epsom salt. I watered them both to runoff, and now I'll wait for Amnesia to prioritize which leaves she thinks are worth saving, and then I'll defoliate the dead ones. Hopefully trainwreck will just bounce back to green. She needed to be defoliated anyway, so this situation makes it easier for me to find the dead leaves. Edit: Came back to feed the last of the nutes and decided to pluck the crispy goners. I found that pulling the leaf stem downward will make the most dead leaves fall right off, allowing me to test a majority of the leaves and give Amnesia a major haircut. Luckily I left a lot of leaves from prior defoliation, as Amnesia REALLY sucked them dry. 3/15: Amnesia looks no worse for wear than last night. Trainwreck as well. Went ahead and pulled as many dead leaves off Trainwreck as I could. Some leaves were a mix of crispy brown and healthy green, which I think is pretty goofy, so I avoided taking any green fans but removed the crispy ones. The colors of the leaves around the buds are really fun to look at. 3/16: Amnesia is starting to SHED her dead leaves, allowing me to pick the leaves with almost no effort. I tested as many leaves as I could, giving another haircut. I would say this isn't a good thing, but since it's my first grow, I'm rolling with it. As long as Amnesia keeps the buds and its nearest leaves alive, it will slowly grow, albeit stunted. I'm not sure if this condition will cause it to finish sooner, but I'm going to need to watch the trichomes under a microscope every couple of days just in case she's ready for harvest. Trainwreck looks about the same as it did before. No new leaves are ready to be removed there yet. 3/19: Amnesia is still shedding leaves, but also bulking up. Trainwreck is slowly bulking up, and turning purple as well! Going to keep an eye on Amnesia's trichomes. Edit: because amnesia is yellowing so much, and because it's been 5 days, I'm going to feed both plants a quarter strength nutrient mix just in case I've been overfeeding them somehow.

Harvested these girls at the 9 week Mark I could have pushed another week or so but there were amber trichomes and the temp were getting crazy in the wardrobe this time of year but everything had turned out sweet! The girls look and smell amazing frost everywhere. Forbidden runtz is still growing see how she goes. Fastbuds are reliable โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฃ

31 Aug. I start the third week of my autoflower. The plant is growing well, but I noticed small yellow spots on the leaf tips, which seem like a mild calcium deficiency. This is probably due to the fact that so far I have been giving water with a slightly low pH, around 6, while the ideal range would be 6.5โ€“7. At the beginning, to lower the ppm of the tap water (which was around 211 ppm), I mixed it with demineralized water. This brought the ppm down to about 109โ€“140, making it harder for the plant to absorb the available calcium. Additionally, the soil I am using, Biobizz Light Mix, is lightly fertilized but does not contain enough calcium to correct this small initial deficiency. For this week, I will not add any fertilizers. I simply want to raise the pH to 6.5 and use water with higher ppm, so the plant can better absorb the nutrients already present in the soil. The lamp is positioned about 35โ€“36 cm from the plant and so far there are no burn issues. Temperatures range between 25 and 30 ยฐC depending on the day, while humidity in the room stays between 40โ€“60%. The humidifier is always on because I keep the window open, but the dehumidifier is not being used, as it is not necessary at the moment. I also have a new oscillating fan arriving to replace the current fixed one, and Iโ€™m waiting for a regulable extractor (90โ€“145 mยณ/h), which will allow me to control the air perfectly during winter if needed. This week my main goals are: Increase the water ppm without overdoing it Adjust the pH to 6.5 Keep observing the plant without adding any fertilizers Everything else seems fine and growth is regular. With these corrections, I expect the new leaves to grow healthy and free of spots. ==UPDATE 31/08== To control the calcium deficiency, I will administer an eggshell solution until I reach 300 ppm (I will boil some eggshells and administer the solution in tap water). ==Update 4 Sept== By mistake, I adjusted the pH twice, once to 7 and once to 8, and obviously the plant immediately showed symptoms of incorrect pH. At the next watering, I'll give Biobizz Grow with a little Biobizz Bloom since the plant has entered pre-flowering. I'll adjust everything to a pH of 6-7 and a ppm of 450-500.

Evening, Cannafam and Happy Easter to those of you that celebrate it ๐Ÿ‡ This has been yet another great week with my 3 Green Crack girls. I can't remember if I mentioned it in my last update but I switched out my 300 watt Viperspectra LED for my 600 watt Mars Hydro, also lollipopped the 3 of them and whenever I see a leaf that I didn't notice in my initial defoliation that is obstructing light to bud sites I pop it off but never more than a few leaves at a time. The plants are pretty much in auto pilot right now just cruising. There's no more maintenance left to do on them and aside from feeding them I don't really have to do much except setback and wait on my weed lol

Week 3 of Fast Buds CC from seed, a little over 2 weeks from seedling. Growing nicely. No smell obviously. But the baby leaves are getting huge and fat (seems to be common with Fast Buds strains). She's starting to put out nodes. I started some LST. Gonna have fun with this one! Thanks again @FastBuds !! ๐Ÿ‘

FBT2309 is doing okay. She is running high in nitrogen. But with this being a organo-mineral dwc I have been having issues in past dialing in the right amounts. She is still growing great overall. Starting to develop some frost, and progressing with her Cola development. If toxicity gets worse I will change the solution soon. I diluted it down some, but it doesn't always work. Thank you Gen1:11, Medic Grow, and Fast Buds. ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿป๐Ÿค›๐Ÿป๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐Ÿ‘‡likes๐Ÿ‘‡, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐Ÿ‘‡. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿป Happy Growing ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

I THINK THEY ARE DONE STRETCHING. GDP 1 IS 27.5 INCHES TALL. THATS BEEN HER HEIGHT FOR AT LEAST TWO DAYS NOW. GDP 2 IS 18.5 INCHESS TALL. #2 IS IN A 3 GALLON POT, I THINK THATS WHY SHE IS SO MUCH SMALLER. COULD ALSO JUST BE GENETICS. DAY 43. DAY 44: EACH PLANT HAS STRETCHED ANOTHER INCH. GDP 1 IS 28.5 AND GDP 2 IS JUST UNDER 20 INCHES TALL. NOT TOO BAD. LETS SEE IF THEY STRETCH ANYMORE. ITS SLOWED OVER THE PAST COUPLE DAYS FOR SURE. DAY 45: ADDED ENHANCEMENT PUCKS FOR FLOWER. 1 PHOTO RED FLOWER BOOSTER. 1 UVA TRICHOME BOOSTER. DAY 48: GDP 1 IS 30IN TALL TODAY. GDP 2 IS 20.5 INCHES TALL. BOTH PLANTS APPEAR HAPPY AND HEALTHY. LEAVING THE UVA TRICH BOOSTER LIGHT ON FOR THREE HOURS AT A TIME. DAY 49: GDP 1 STILL 30IN TALL. GDP 2 CLOSER TO 21 INCHES BUT NOT QUITE THERE.

Conclusion and a plant that grows quite slender in bloom doubles if it does not treble its size, responds well to defoliation, it is usually harvested in 8-9 weeks but if it is left a week more mature to perfection. on a scale of 1/10 my vote for this variety is 8.
