Strain: Fast Buds Mixed Auto Grow Type: Outdoor Pot Size: 5 Gallon Medium: Coco Coir & Perlite Nutrient Line: Athena Harvest Update This Mixed Auto exceeded my expectations super frosty and dense, especially for an outdoor grow. After a full dry and cure, the buds turned out beautifully. The smell is rich, and the trichome coverage is impressive. The smoke was flavorful and smooth, making it a very satisfying experience overall. I didn’t get a chance to take much footage, but for an outdoor run, she really delivered easily one of the highlights of this grow. Drying Climate Conditions Temperature: 20–22°C Humidity: 50–55% Until the next one stay lifted, and remember to use my code ISLANDT for 15% off your next order at Fast Buds!

Sorry guys 🤦‍♂️🏾 I do have a daytime job/career and due to a busy few weeks, updating this didn’t make my list of priorities. However, maintaining my babies did and I am happy to say that although you had to wait it was not for nothing as this lady is looking lovely and actually going in to Week 11. I will start back updating and posting. I do have pictures from prior weeks and they will be posted to my IG. Thanks for following and keep growing !

Thaught the yield would be bigger and the smell louder in generell.

Week 11 (10-4 to 16-4) 10-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 52% (lowest) No pictures. Added 10L to the reservoir, and turned it on for a couple of minutes. 11-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 61% (highest) 52% (lowest) 12-4 Temperature: 25.5 degrees (lights on) 22 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 57% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. 13-4 Temperature: 26.5 degrees (lights on) 23 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 56% (lowest) 14-4 Temperature: 26.4 degrees (lights on) 22.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 45% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. The reservoir is almost empty, there is 850 ml left. 15-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 20 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 59% (highest) 49% (lowest) No pictures. 16-4 Temperature: 23.5 degrees (lights on) 19.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 53% (lowest) Today i defoliated both plants heavily for the last time, you can say i did a method called: schwazzing. Dont know why but while i was defoliating the Chemdog smelled a little bit like soap haha. Turned on the reservoir for a couple of minutes. (Till the AutoPots are full and the valve closes) Rised the pots aswell, so the canopy is very even. I let them recover from the heavy defoliation i did, and next week i will slowly increase the light's strength. (Now still at 50% 50cm)

Hulkberries are easy to grow. All seeds germianted, all Seedlings showed up and then they went into overdrive. Turned out as Big Plants, with sticky and dense Nugs on the COlas NO Training on them. Super structured Plants perfect Ratio from Leaves to Buds

This week went beautiful some lovely growth and looking healthy in the leaves nice and thick feeding at 400 PPM of expert nutrients line pH at 5.8 . She is doing very well and cannot wait for next week. Thank you for looking at my diary and always remember it's 420 somewhere 🌱👍

Theyre starting nice. Love this

This was the last week one day before I chopped 'em down 😁

Flipped on 17-7 to flower🌺 and the first issue came 🤷 the sativa dom cookie ( stretchy girl ) couldnt handle the feed and got a little burned, nothing to bad. She's going on a water only diet next two rounds.

Also two 7 litre waterings this week. Day 129 watering 800 ppm runoff 1000 Day 132: defoliation to expose buds Day 133 watering 740 ppm runoff 1600, ph fluctuating between 6.4 - 6,6 feed and runoff

23Aug This week I'm ramping up Top Max as per the feed schedule. 26Aug Spotting some calmag looking brown rusty spot on the top leaves of one of the plants (shortest one, furthest from the fans). Discovered after watering, but still fed it with 1L water pH 6.5 with 1.2mL/L calmag. I lowered the lights recently but they are not showing signs of light or heat stress. 29Aug Watering all with deficiency-strength calmag today to get ahead with the three others, just in case. Buds seem to have fattened a lot in 3 days. One girl is still showign calmag deficiency.

Such Bittersweet Joy Added this week as ‘Flowering’ although technically should be harvested as I but I haven’t had a chance to weigh or anything. I will do that next week once trimmed etc. So finally cut them down on D89, it was a beautiful day outside and it just felt right. Although when it came to the deed itself I felt sadder than I thought I would for my girls and the time we had together. All 6 (I’m growing another 3 different strains but not included on this diary) are now hanging to dry in the tent. Temp -18 C; Humidity-60% seems to be holding steady with no tinkering thankfully. After the 3 days they have all dried noticeably, perhaps 4/5 more before trimming / curing. I’ve had quite a close look at most of the harvest and as far as this noob can tell, there doesn’t seem to be any issues with mould / bud rot. Fingers remain crossed. I did have one very profound moment this week... It happened as I was surveying the harvest hanging up for the first time. I could feel my mindset change suddenly from the constant paranoia over their health and overcoming my impatience to “I actually have a crap load of weed”. It was beautiful beautiful moment... Thanks for reading. Have a great week 😊

These ladies did'nt stretched much so far in week 2 but that could be due to the light intensity and distance I had it at in week 1 of the stretch period. This strain is really starting to show signs of that Gassy, Sweet, Creamy smelly that I was looking for and so far these ladies have been a breeze to grow.

Damn, this is taking forever! 😅 I do have seen some new beginning of branches coming up in just a half a day., she's gonna go nuts, I just feel it....

Everyone got transplanted yesterday! They've been hardening off outside for almost a week. The got some Fish Emulsion a couple days ago. One night it got down to 38F, even though the weather said it would only get down to 50F! So I'm very grateful that they're so resilient. They're not showing much transplant stress so that's good. I watered in some lime when i transplanted. I put them in with my tomatoes that I need to stake. I started putting down seaweed mulch which hopefully I will finish tomorrow. Overall a good week and it feels good to have them in the ground!

On day 1 the rez is at 6.2. The highest cola is 8.5" from the light. On day 2 the rez is at 6.2. The highest cola is 7.75" from the light. On day 3 the rez is at 6.1. The highest cola is 7.5" from the light. On day 4 the rez is at 6.3. The highest cola is 7.125" from the light. On day 5 the plants are smelling and doing well. On day 6 I changed out the rez and PH to 6.1. The highest cola is 7" from grow light stretch is deff slowing down and should be over shortly. My avg PPFD at canopy is around 800. On day 7 the rez ph is 6.0. The highest cola is still 7" away from light 😅 close but not too close in my small space.

For my second grow, I am OVER THE MOON!! I just yielded 16.1 ounces (wet trimmed) from a single lady in a small 23"x19" x 48" DIY tent. The strain; Mandarin Cookies v2 from Ethos Genetics, was very easy to manage and did not have any issues even in my small space. It was really difficult to determine the run time, it suggested 9 weeks from the breeder, I ended up going almost 13 weeks!! the trichomes stayed white
