Today the girls are 17 days old and are looking great and growing fast. I performed LST last week for the first time, i decided to get rid of the bend and let them grow upwards. Im currently bending the branches to encourage them to grow outwards. I also use the ponytailing technique. By tying the uppergrowth in a ponytail 5 hours a day you maximize the light penetration. I repeat this process 3 to 4 days in a row The girls had their first feeding of Canna Terra Vega at 0.5ml p/L and are loving it so far.

Harvest update in 2 weeks or so :) I wanted to let them go a bit longer but the mildew was going to take over so I chopped the plants and rinsed them in water + H2O2. Lots of lessons learned ... Lots of bud hanging on the vine. Good luck to everyone

Day 63: This should be the last week in veg. It might be a partial week...I'll make the call in a few days. I'm excited to see these babes flower!!! Day 64: Last night I saw what appeared to be signs of overwatering, so I turned off the humidifier and the temp increased immediately and today, they look just fine. I also raised the 150W LED on that side of the tent just a bit to reduce the intensity. This will be the last week for veg. I flipped the other tent, but these babes need just a little longer before flipping. Day 65: They looked pretty thirsty today, so I fed 1 gal of late veg nutes per plant. The soil was very dry according to my meter, so if I overwatered last time, they had plenty of dryness today. Day 67: I came home to near wilting plants! It had been 52 hours since last feeding and I've never seen them this thirsty during this grow. I watered 1 gal/plant again and GZ is showing the same signs of over watering again. The leaf color is fine with zero nutrient issues, so I suspect there may be a root problem. I don't know what else it could be? Day 68: The moisture meter showed bone dry again, so I watered a half gallon of water/cal-mag. Day 69: She was dry again today, so I watered a half gallon of late veg nutes. Day 70: Last day of VEG!

Day 63 This should be the last week in veg. It might be a partial week...I'll make the call in a few days. I'm excited to see these babes flower!!! Day 64: Last day of VEG! I set the timer to 12/12 and lower the lights to 18". These babes are ready to switch, based on my past experience. I hope they don't shoot too much in the next couple of weeks! Flower time is here at last! Day 65: I tore part of a main top branch today and immediately put clonex gel and used some clear packing tape to secure it back together. I think it will be ok. I sure hope so! It's pretty much the biggest top of the plant. I don't know if the potassium silicate treatment is making the stalks too strong, but I only tried to tuck it into the next hole of the screen. Oh well, time will tell. Fed transistion week 1 nutes today. Day 67: The branch survived! The plants are stretching nicely and I expect to run out of room on the screen at the outer edges. Day 69: The canopy is so FULL! I'm amazed at how healthy they are and how many bud sites are filling up the screen!

Day 57 This should be the last week in veg. It might be a partial week...I'll make the call in a few days. I'm excited to see these babes flower!!! Day 58: Last day of VEG! I set the timer to 12/12 and lower the lights to 18". These babes are ready to switch, based on my past experience. I hope they don't shoot too much in the next couple of weeks! Flower time is here at last! Day 59: Flower day 1! Fed transistion week 1 nutes today. Day 61: The plants are stretching nicely and I expect to run out of room on the screen at the outer edges. Day 63: I'm really surprised how fast Shiskaberry caught up to her tentmate. She's got many bud sites, even after losing one of the mains. It might actually be a good thing I'm down a few tops, since the canopy is getting VERY full!

My girls are continuing to do well, and spread out. I had a little mishap with the watering pump as it stayed on all afternoon, and drained the nutes bucket, but the girls did not seem to mind and have continued to flourish. I missed a couple of days photos due to changes in my work schedule, but will try to keep on track for the coming week. I have decided today to switch it over to bloom as the canopy is full enough for this first run. I have turned on the bloom switch on my grow lamp and set my timers to a 12-12 schedule starting today. Next week's timelapse should be interesting.

Once again not much of an update as Iv been busy just a few poorly taken photos a few days into week 2 flower, bud sites are forming nicely, also give her a little trim after I took the photo to get better light penitration.... Took some more pics today (week 2 day 6) flower, not the best of pics but can only work with what I have unfortunatel. Give this girl a drink yesterday an think I over done it as she was looking sad few hours after watering, she seems to have bounced back nicely tho:) she looks light green almost yellow in colour around the flowers any idea what it could be? Always open to tips :)

I highly recommend these Auto-flowering genetics. The harvest was above expectations and slightly behind schedule, but I have very little negative to say about this Strain or this grow cycle. I am looking to develop a top down drip system to speed up the seedling/clone stage a few days for even better results. Because of these great results I am looking forward to my next FastBuds strain. This next grow I will be picking up local clones here in California perhaps this time a purple theme. 😎 ______________________________________ If you enjoyed this Diary feel free to follow me here on Grow Diaries as well as Instagram and Youtube to see the rest of my content 😘 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/hightv.ig YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChV8yzZviLCHpGAktvr6r0w NEXT GROW: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/14740-purple-punch-granddaddy-purple0

Day 106: removed some yellowed leaves. Decided to wait one more day on water. Not adding any more nutrients. Assuming harvest in 14 days. Day 107: Added one gallon of pH6.5 water with 2tablespoons of Herculean Harvest Day 108: Removed yellow or brown leaves. Added no water. Trichomes clear. The urge to harvest is huge but will go 2 more weeks. Removed a box elder bug that sneaked into the tent. Day 109: nothing new to report. Added no water. Tempted to add nutrients once more. After taking photos, removed several yellowing or browned leaves. Day 110: did not add water. Removed some more leaves. Day 111: did not add water. She is starting to look frosty. Read some mixed messages about the last two week flush and am feeling the urge to feed again. Day 112: Replaced Viparspectra 600W with a Horticulture Lighting Group Quantum Board 288 V2 and Slate 2 heatsink. Very pleased although my temperature jumped to 81°F.
