Welcome to the Week 5 update for the Fast Buds Lemon Pie Autos. I am still recovering from Covid so I’ve missed Weeks 3 & 4 but here’s a quick fill in on the missing time. I am always watering every 4th day like clockwork. In Week 3, I increased the water intake from 1.4 litres to 2.1 litres per watering which equals .52 of a litre per plant per day. I also began feeding with FloraNova Grow at a rate of 1.25 mls per gallon. In Week 4, I increased the water intake again from 2.1 litres to 2.8 litres per watering which equals .70 of a litre per plant per day. I also increased the grow fertilizer to 2.5 mls per gallon. The plants were fed three times with the grow formula before being switched over to the FloraNova Bloom in Week 5. They are currently receiving 3 litres of water every 4th day fertilized with 2.5 mls per gallon and they are thriving! This is a very strong smelling strain with an overwhelming odour of skunky dankness emanating from the tent- even when closed. The bud sites are popping up everywhere and resin production has begun. They have stretched quite nicely but are definitely wider than taller and hopefully these turn out as great as they smell. That’s it for now, until next time- cheers! ☮️

Day 64. Ph water to the finish now. They ain’t the prettiest looking that’s for sure. Trichomes slowly to turn cloudy. Orange haze will be first to chop, I’m thinking another 3-5 days Berry cotton & cheese still white pistils, let them buds swell a little more. 7-10 days left I would imagine. Finish line in sight Day 66. Orange haze has now had its last feed of ph water. Will chop once pot is dry around day 68/69.

Started Training Late! Was on summer holiday for a week and only started training now. Above are the plants during training as well as a few hours after training. Autos are definitely more delicate and the two runts are growing slow but yet still showing some progress. Changed my bulbs back to the CMH set to 400w each (2) Also gave them a good amount of water as the FloraCaps aren’t covering the whole pot I felt like it was necessary to wet the entire grow medium well for a change. Some of them were a bit far along for training but I did the best I could. Also the Purple Lemonade and 2 other plants are showing signs of flowering.

I started the week with watering the plants, new buds are developing nicely and they’ve got some mass since last week. I am a little worried for the plants at the edges of a groow room beacuse tey are still small and not as bushy as I hoped they would be. Day two: Yesterday’s nut feed turns out to put extra fuel to the plants and buds grew in size significantly:) upper leaves got a little purplish color which looks amazing but I hope it is not some kind of deficiency 🤘 Day three: I thought centered plants were too near to the light source so I bended every plant in a way so the light would be evenly exposed to the whole growing area and I am happy with the results so far. Hopefully it will have a final effect for the harvest quantity😺💪

🚀🎆 Milky Way of inflorescences

Wed 01/12 - 5th nodes started to come through now, once the 6th node has hit roughly 5-10mm in height i'll be topping down to 5 nodes again! (SCRoG going up on saturday followed by LST and light defoliation) - Cal-Mag deficiency has cleared up! Sat 04/12 - Topped all Plants, 7th nodes had started but chopped the 6th off back down to 5 nodes on all plants. - Very Slight yellow tips so will Cal Mag Foliar spray 30 mins before lights off. - SCRoG set at 21cm above the medium *note* one plant is now drinking double compared to the rest, most plants taking 1.25L feed every day, this one takes 2-2.5L daily! Mon 06/12 - Took off the lowest fan leaves from every plant as they're just sat in darkness doing nothing - Week 4 I will begin LST and Heavy Defoliate/Lolli-popping - Just ordered some LST Clips so they will be arriving tomorrow.

Hasta ahora muy bien mis planta aunque muy resistente presenta unos cuantos acaro aunque ya no puedo aplicar preventivos en el punto de floración en el que se encuentra ya solo qued a mirar el desarrollo de la planta

Still waiting on tricomes to Aber abit and I see some foxtails developing all over the buds putting on lots of weight stems bending all over even lower branches are hanging

I am really happy that the plant is so beautiful. I am 100% sure that in better conditions it can give even more, now there is little time left to harvest. bye growers OKeyyy now the harvest day is 23/05! i love this strain ! looking for the second plant ;D

Everything is Looking good. Ill be gone for a week, its nice having a reliable system to allow me the ability... And a few friends.

This girl is stretching like no tomorrow. I have to keep her around wind breakers or else she would be history. I fed her some hole made worm tea and she is loving it.

Hi all another week done strawberry banana still hanging on ill chop her tomorrow though and hang to dry for 5 to 10 days but other plant well thats a different stroy i chopped that bitch down and dried it all lasted 6 days drying between 16 &21 degress a few warm days but nothing to mad and 55 to 62% humidity now its curing in cvault containers no smell of hay at all jst pure sticky and opened container to weight it and wife screams down stairs about the smell of house I wouldn't say it was out of container and on counter top for more than 3 mins and she roaring over smell so hopefully that a good sign 🤣🤣66 grams dried. Now to my one criticism to myself the buds are a bit airey compared to what I was aiming and hoping for did I do anything wrong or will they dense up in curing process or do they come out same way they went in either way tho im well happy with my first run at this plus strawberry banana a much bigger plant buds look much denser and frostyer so dying to see what grams she gives out when all done Thanks again all Keep grow and blazing.

Start Flush

Ready to harvest! Last days of flushing!! Look great!!! Smell intense and fruity! I hope there’s good medicine!! Thanks sweet seeds

🌿 Grow Diary – Tag 84 | Blütetag 24 „Radikaler Haarschnitt, erste Harzschicht … und die Schädlingspolizei dreht wieder ihre Runden“ Diese Woche war klar: Schere raus – untenrum einmal Kernsanierung. Die Ladies wurden ordentlich gelollipopped und ich hab wirklich nicht gekleckert. Der Eimer war am Ende randvoll mit Schnittresten. Alles, was unten nur Energie klaut oder im Schatten gammelt, ist beinahe konsequent rausgeflogen. Ab jetzt geht die komplette Kraft nur noch in die Tops. Die Kush hat mir dabei kurz den Puls hochgetrieben. Etwas instabil im Aufbau, beim Schneiden halb auseinandergefallen – ich durfte erstmal wieder puzzeln, welche Triebe ich eigentlich behalten wollte. Kurz Zelt-Chaos … aber wieder eingefangen. 😄 📏 Höhe & Stabilität Der Stretch ist jetzt offiziell vorbei. Endhöhe: ca. 1,10 Meter – besser hätte es fast nicht laufen können fürs Setup. Viel höher und wir hätten Licht-Tetris spielen müssen. Zur Stabilisierung hängen jetzt überall Pflanzen-Jojos. Diese kleinen Rollen mit Nylonschnur, die die Äste sanft hochziehen und schwere Buds stützen. Schön gleichmäßiges Blätterdach, nichts kippt weg, alles entspannt. Echt kleine Gamechanger. 🌸 Blütenentwicklung Jetzt startet die eigentliche Show: Buds stapeln sich sichtbar erste Trichome / Harzbildung leichter, süßer Duft im Zelt Man merkt richtig: 👉 Produktionsmodus aktiviert. Jeden Tag ein bisschen frostiger. Ernährung & Feintuning Allerdings zeigen sie langsam klar: 👉 Phosphor- & Kaliumhunger Die BioTabs-Tabletten waren top für den Start, aber in der intensiven Blütephase einfach etwas zu träge. Plan: Mikroben pushen → Bodenleben aktivieren moderat PK nachdüngen → Blütenaufbau unterstützen Ein kleiner Schub, damit die Buds richtig Masse machen. 🐛 Reality Check: Nervensägen-Alarm Und ja … natürlich gibt’s auch die weniger glamouröse Seite des Grows. Tripse und Trauermücken zum Beispiel. Doppelt hält leider nicht besser. 😅 Tripse → silbrige Fraßspuren auf den Blättern Trauermücken → kleine schwarze Nervflieger über der Erde Nichts Dramatisches, aber einfach maximal lästig. So dieses typische: „Könnt ihr bitte einfach verschwinden?“ Werden natürlich beobachtet und in Schach gehalten – aber eingeladen war hier definitiv keiner. ✅ Wochenfazit Lollipopping erledigt ✔️ Stretch durch ✔️ Höhe perfekt bei 1,10 m ✔️ Jojos stabilisieren alles ✔️ Harz & Buds starten durch ✔️ Tripse nerven ✔️ Trauermücken nerven leider genauso ✔️ Unterm Strich trotzdem: richtig guter Fortschritt. Jetzt heißt’s wieder: füttern, beobachten, feinjustieren – und zuschauen, wie aus den Ladies langsam kleine, klebrige Harzmonster werden. Grüne Grüße & happy growing allerseits Rocko 🌿✂️ 🌿 Grow Diary – Day 84 | Flowering Day 24 “Heavy haircut week, first frost… and pests being annoying as hell” This week had one clear mission: Scissors out – clean up everything below the canopy. The ladies got a proper lollipopping session, and I definitely didn’t go easy on them. By the end, the bucket was completely full of cuttings. Everything down low that only steals energy or sits in the shade had to go. From now on, all power goes straight into the tops. The Kush caused a bit of drama though. She’s slightly unstable structurally and basically fell apart while pruning, so I had to puzzle together which shoots I originally wanted to keep. Short chaos in the tent… but fixed. 😄 📏 Height & Support Stretch is now officially over – finally. Final height: around 1.10 meters, which is pretty much perfect for the tent. Any taller and we’d be fighting the lights. To keep everything stable, I installed plant yo-yos everywhere – those retractable supports with nylon strings. They gently pull branches upward, support heavy buds, and keep the canopy nice and even. Small tools, big impact. 🌸 Flower Progress Now the fun part really starts. You can see it every day: buds stacking up first visible trichomes/resin light sweet smell filling the tent That moment when you open the zipper and think: 👉 “Alright… production mode activated.” Each day gets a little frostier. Nutrition & Adjustments What’s becoming obvious now: 👉 early phosphorus and potassium deficiencies The BioTabs tablets worked great so far, but during heavy flowering they’re simply a bit too slow. So the plan: add microbes → boost soil life moderate PK supplementation → support bud building Just a small extra push so the flowers can really bulk up. 🐛 Reality Check: Pest Squad And of course… it wouldn’t be a real grow without some annoying visitors. Thrips AND fungus gnats. Double trouble. 😅 Thrips → those classic silver streaks on the leaves Fungus gnats → tiny black flies hovering around the soil Nothing catastrophic, but seriously annoying. That constant “can you guys just leave already?” feeling. They’re under control and being monitored closely — but yeah… nobody invited them. ✅ Weekly Summary Lollipopping done ✔️ Stretch finished ✔️ Height dialed in at 1.10 m ✔️ Yo-yos supporting branches ✔️ Buds & resin starting strong ✔️ Thrips annoying ✔️ Fungus gnats annoying too ✔️ Overall, still very happy with the progress. Now it’s feed, observe, fine-tune… and watch the ladies slowly turn into sticky little resin monsters. Green greetings & happy growing, Rocko 🌿✂️

Doing great, considering moving indoors to get better light maybe. Because eventually I'll have to keep her on the porch with not direct sunlight

Start of week 9

Pablito, Pablito... What is wrong with you my Man?? I mean... Ph is at 6,3. EC is at 1,5. You get all Nutrients what you need. The Light is at 50% (720w) and 50cm above you... So why tf do you do this with you/me and your Leafs???
