The apparent potassium deficiency has got me worried about how to get some into the plants ASAP. Therefore, I have purchased some Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster, courtesy of Amazon Prime! Sadly, this seems to be of inorganic nature. However, I need to rectify the issue quickly, so this seemed the best option.
Another possibility is light burn, as the plants have grown as tall as my tent! 6ft! So I have turned down the lighting to 60%. This seems quite likely as my FBP2 is considerably shorter than FBP1 and FBP3, and this plant does not have the same issues.
The new dehumidifier has managed to get the RH down to around 49%. Considering it was up to 99% this week. I definitely am trying my best to avoid the dreaded bud rot!
I added a large amount of Silica as the stems are decreasing in strength under the weight, so hopefully that will help. Additionally a Potassium deficiency itself can cause weaker stems, so I'm trying everything, (possibly overkill) to correct my oversights on this.
All in all I've learnt many things from this 1st grow. Most importantly the necessity of LST, to prevent the plants from getting so tall, and that will avoid the light stress.
The trichomes are still mostly clear through the jewellers loupe. From what I can tell as my eyesight isn't too good. It's difficult to tell milky from clear to me.
21.8.24;
I just did a defoliation, I removed many more leaves today 🍃 things are getting super crowded in the 4x4, even with both tent doors open. I adjusted the plants, alternating so that each side of each plant gets correct lighting (as best I can manage)!
I gave the plants each;
*1ml in 1ltr of dechlorinated water, of Ecothrive Flourish.
**2ml in 1ltr of dechlorinated water of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster.
****2ml in 1ltr of dechlorinated water, of Cal-Mag.
My fan also broke, so I moved my lounge fan into the grow room. It's a lot more powerful, even on the lowest setting, so I tried to disperse it trying as best as possible.
Thanks for reading my diary 🙂

One love, growers 🇯🇲💚
So today we have the first day of Week 4(1.12.25)of vegetation, counting from the first cotyledon leaf.
The girls have recovered quite well since Thursday (27.11.25) when they were topped and bent, and we are going strong without flipping from the stress.
TBH, try putting other autoflowers through that much stress in the middle of Week 3 compared to Fast Buds without flipping into flower 🤲🏻
BIG UP to their genetics. They are really changing the game.
What do yall think of the girls, growmies? Any tips? Btw, the fertrometr finally shows the living soil is OK, it took those little rascals long enough to make it 🐛
2.12.2025 They look so freakin beatifull i needed to shot some random short. Again and again shout out to Fast Buds team. See ya later growmies👽
5.12.2025 🚀 Quick Vibe Check (Day 25)
Just a quick update today, growmies! 💚
It's December 5th, and the girls are cruising into Day 25 of vegetation. What can I say? They look absolutely perfect! 💪 They are beautifully bushy and full of life.
Now the focus is just on keeping that canopy nice and level so every tip catches maximum light and we find that sweet spot.
Everything is running smoothly, catch you at the next update in week 5. Sending everyone one love and happy growing! 🙏

Hello
The pistils are turning Amber, the leaves are getting more and more purple and the buds are getting bigger by the day.
Im starting to flush her now and I believe I could harvest her around 23 october, in 10 days.
The smell is already delicious and powerful.

Day 36 I guess I can call it bloom. Nice strong pistils shooting all over. She is the tallest so far making me raise my lights a little more.
Day 38 Now Californian Snow is the tallest :) Ztrawberry stopped at a perfect height, it looks like she's gonna develop into a beautiful lady. Fat white pistils all over 😻
Day 39 Happy girl got 2500ml cm bg bb bh 6.3ph ~1EC She is perfect, symmetrical, stopped stretching at about 50cm, flowers are mostly leveled, branches are strong, leaves point up unless I water. I think she's also turning purple. Beaut 😻
Day 42 I think I saw some burnt tips but she still looks super happy and healthy. The most vigorous plant I've had.

day 73 I was not ready for all this! 🤣🤣 they literally exploded and I started seeing purple on these buds I had to tie them up so the weight of the flowers didn't break the branches. compared to El Patron that I also have in my tent, Purple is much fatter and shorter. they have a very sweet scent and I can't wait to taste it, but alas I will go there a little longer. I have to say that 6 photoperiods are too many for my 1m x 1m x 2m tent. in addition to this I have noticed that they are very hungry. like me and give me some advice. thanks for stopping by, have a nice day and happy cultivation

Going great. Smell has become an issue this week with all the rain storms were receiving. The high humidity has my carbon filter pretty much useless. I’m in California so I’m not worried about legality. That said I live in a townhome so I’m not exactly trying to upset or advertise to my neighbors. Not too much I can do though. Getting excited and also not looking forward to trim. Looks to be about 2-3 weeks out...maybe 4-5 on the Sativa plant...or more.

Hello 👋🏻 Readers,
Triplets had a trip out of the grow tent in the middle of the week due to a major power outage, until noon in the spare bedroom and then my bedroom (facing west)on the afternoon, with a 12°C temperature in the house, bet they got more purple 😂
Luckily the power was out only 25 hours.
Other than that, all went fine this week.
I checked the trichomes with my jewelry microscope, even tried my best to take pictures 😅
The base of the trichomes are so cute to see as they are purple and fading into the clear milky form( not showing on pictures) purpled all the way✊🏻😄
This week I started using the supplement Diablo Monster-K
Which is the last supplement to be use on the end of flowering, as I started with the supplement Monster Flower, week 2 to 5 then Monster Blast, week 5 to 6 then Monster K, week 7 to 8
( ya ya ya i also used the supplement BIG BUD week 2 to 4 just because why not? i had too i couldn't help myself😅
The endgame is soon to be! but only the trichomes will have the last word on it.
and of course I gotta flush them so i need to pay close attention to the trichomes 🤨
Thanks for stopping by and taking time to check out my weekly diary updates.
" likes/comments " are always truly appreciated 😀
Wish y'all a great week!!

85 Days from germination to harvest!
Sorry for the lack of accurate information.
Just some pics from finish. Honestly- I never finished the diary so I’m leaving it as is. Was extra sweet and pungent and especially extra frosty. Not to mention fast!

Week 9!! We're soooo close and the smell is unbelievable, its a mix of Trix cereal, soda syrup and a little bit of gas..I'm really going to miss cracking this tent open ...they're still showing signs of overfeeding but we've been water only for 1.5 weeks now and will continue with water only until harvest..
We took clones with the intentions of giving a few away to some local Growmies but we decided to veg out a mother instead..this strain looks to be a keeper and I'd hate to loose it like so many other killer strains we've let go..
Trichomes are mostly cloudy but with another 25-30% still clear. If i had to guess I would say we're about 2 weeks from the chop but time will tell..Thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️🌱

Flowering going well
Flowering #2,#3,#6 #6 is a week ahead of#2,#3 will put others in on week 4 for a staggered harvesting
01/30/2022
watered with fungal tea and some aloe mixed in for amino acids and other goodness. Well see how she progresses in 4 days
Also working on some banana peel tea to give a boost of potassium if I do next week it should be available for week 6-7.
Ps.
Fuzzy Mellon (bag seed male)
I will pollinate one lucky branch on #6 as she is my favorite. But number 3(tall and lanky one) will get pollination of one branch as well.
I can't wait to see how they recombine with fuzzy melon smell mixed with burnt rubber and model glue and pine.
#2 no pollination (smaller one) #5 (bonsai) and #8 are males. So 3 female out of 8 seeds. Going to make some feminized seeds next time,so I'll have plenty of female's for a staggard harvest.

Blueberry has started early flower, will be top dressing with some gaia green in the next few days.
The 1 mystery fastbuds has some huge fan leaves, they might have to go due to them blocking most lower branches.
Mystery #2 is finally picking up the pace.
