July 13: perfect cannabis weather after last week’s heat wave. Another heat wave next week, but for now it’s perfect. Added a third scrog layer and tied it off to some water bottles. This type of scrogging works, is easy, cheap, and it’s easy to still move the plant around the yard as needed. July 14: re-did the scrog net using a larger piece with more squares. Supercropped some ends to keep the growth tips at the same elevation. We’ll see how many colas I can make of this. July 16: looks happy enough but I need to up the water volume in this heat. July 18: really hot the last few days (33 C) so lots of watering and misting to keep them a bit cooler. Look really green and robust. 👍👍 Also wetting outside of grow bags to get some evaporative cooling for the soil. Added malted barley and Power Bloom to some soil and added it as a soil layer. Added plain soil on the top to deter birds from stealing the barley kernels. A bit less than 1 tbsp of Power Bloom per 1 gallon of soil with a bit more than 1 tbsp of malted barley per gallon of soil. #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

Day 51 - Week 8 started and it’s looking like I really need to stay on top of watering her. If she doesn’t get water every 2 days, she seems to get severely dehydrated and droopy. Within an hour of watering she perks right up. Went ahead and gave her a feeding of nutes and tucked some leaves as best I can. Day 52 - She’s perked back up again and looking normal. Did some defoliating to get more light to the bud sites and also tucked a few leaves to avoid over stressing her from plucking leaves. From the way she’s been acting, I will be giving her a gallon of water every 3 days to keep her from drying out and drooping. Day 53 - Did a little more leaf removal and tucking today to try and keep her opened up. She’s starting to fill in a bit more and will be giving her some water today to make sure she doesn’t dry out too much like the last couple times. Day 55 - All looking good and she’s dried up a bit but gave her a gallon of water today. Didn’t do any defoliating today, just watered her and tucked some leaves. The wife will be taking care of my girls while I’m out of town for a week so hopefully they survive till I get back.

Esta semana hubo un par de noches de tormenta, por suerte pude resguardarla bajo un invernadero improvisado y no sufrió daños. Aun sigue pidiendo bastante agua aunque no tanta como hace unas semanas. Queda poco para la cosecha, las colas están duras y pesadas, pero sus ramas parecen aguantar el peso sin problemas.

Welcome to my Sour Strawberry Diary sponsored by Spider-Farmer & Barneysfarm. Days 15-21 Veg Days 8-9 11-12 Pheno 1 & 2 few days apart. Decided to top again, and again and again. Making a nice few tops. Been such a heavy sativa im not use to growing one. Kinda in new Territory. So many Shoots so close together. I'm gonna have to top them again at some stage. There's just too many and they're too short. They're the tops of what would of been great colas. But, I've a different agenda here. And I need more colas to fill my net. 6 sets from each plant won't cut it. Growth is good and steady this week. (Sadly, same can't be said for her in RT, they're pushing through) updates will come soon. Strong like Sativa Structure. Missing a bit of a stretch at the moment. Think I might throw her into a few days of 12-12 and then flip her back into veg to stretch her nodes to 50cm2 net. The legs of the frame go into the pot. So its moveable. Let's hope I do a decent job. The one that was started in the root riot cube, with the Broken stem. She is the biggest, by a ways I wonder if that's from an early break (HST) in her stem. Will for sure be testing this with clones. Happy with how these past weeks went. This is where the good times end. (For now) mag issues are looming. Shout out to the Bella from Spider-Farmer & the Rep from Barneysfarm. Much appreciated for the products. Thanks to all who viewed, liked &/R commented. Look forward to seen your diaries. Either way thanks for dropping by.

day 1 - flower week 6 has now started and i want to H²O stress her in the next 2-3 weeks in hope to get her metabolism to work faster. it works by fakeing that the plant has a dry year and might not have enought water to stay alive till she can reproduce. so she starts to work faster and goes turbo (bro science explainaition). thats what i want to try here so dont expect it to work out perfectly. i watered her every day before this week and i will reduce by about 40%. i will still spray the soil every day a little bit when the light turns on but only every other day she will get her usual water dosage (about 600-700ml)

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

Start of week 7 - days 23 to 29 April Week Temperature and RH: Max - 28.9c - 68% Min - 20.0c - 50% 25/4/2020 - After 7 days pot feeIs light gave her 1.5L RO water with: GHE Terra Aquatics Cal -Mag - 40 PPM Biobizz Acti-Vera - 40 PPM Biobizz Heaven - 40 PPM Biobizz Top-Max - 10 PPM Biobizz Grow - 10 PPM Biobizz Bloom - 10 PPM Biobizz PH Up RO Water - 4 PPM About 162 PPM (exceded a bit 150) PH 6.7

Chopped her down this morning got her having in about 63degress and 59% humidity with a little fan running on the floor. Stinking up the whole house since the drying closet has no filtration.

Transplant tomorrow and new home then after. Flowering will begin in a week or so. She’s responded well to all training and is ready to open up into a nice wide canopy. She’ll be tied down to her new pot a little to encourage a bit more spread and open her up a bit so light can get in.

Well,well,well.....Damn! This is my first grow with FastBuds outdoors.. And I am very impressed..She stretched significantly and is loving the sunny Temps... She has doubled in size In the last week 😳 and she has been only drinking water.. I must say..this strain is super fast..

The biggest plant got harvested. the other plant might need another 2 weeks. The harvest pictures are here i will update the final weight.0

Day 50. All grow got busted heavily, for few last waterings AT LEAST pH was way off. When I caught it instead of my presumed 6.3 it was 5.7 . So damaged leaves and delayed smaller harvest. Very sad , especially when I am forced to leave ASAP. Guess I'll delay my holiday for few weeks more ;)))) Outdoors girls beaten by frost, so no hope from them too. Worst time to put them out ... Live and learn ... Mars SP150 is back ! I need more Watts and she helped to veg 5 girls for my friend already. I took light back a bit , anyway his girls are in greenhouse already ;))) Happy Growing !!!

I harvested 2 of the 5 plants on day 71. The other 3 plants got harvested on day 80 and are in the drying process. My inline fan is running on 25% and I got a fan running on the lowest setting on the bottom of the tent, so I doesnt blow on the buds directly.

(Aug22nd added video for plant #1 and photos with and without blackout to show some other stuff and size a bit) Aug 21st, Sunsets are both moving great. Need photos of plant #1 but #2 is closer to finishing then the first. Chunky buds on the shorter one hope the first fills out as well. Smells amazing, really sweet so far , candy like almost a "pez" of sort kinda candy I'm getting. But will update alil more once I get the other plant pics up. Looking great so far !!

Whew! Miss Hypnotic continues to amaze me! She continues to be a light hog but LOVED THE CONDITIONS!! She has trichomes on the sugar leaves already! She smells beautiful alone and with the other girls! I'm posting this as a question but what advice do you guys have for taming her height 🤔 Edit 12/19-I figured out how to tame down her height! I took garden wire and high stress trained her. She's responding well so I'm happy too! No light burn/bleaching over here!

OOOOOH at this time i love all of you, growmie 😍 200gr of pure happiness, never before! 🙌 Buds are compact like rock, shine like diamond...it's unbelivable, looks perfect! At last, mold take me about 20g of buds 😩 But it is ok, the jar is overfull and i'm so happy XD Now let's wait for the right taste......for now is greatful! 😜 Thanks to Dutch Passion for this opportunity, i'm really proud!! 🙏 Thanks to all of you growmie, for your support 🙏 to the next adventure!

Not the best start here, always struggle in the beginning

The competition is coming to an end and I did not have time to harvest, I want to wait another week, I will approximately get about 2 kg. I really liked this unforgettable experience of growing this variety)) There were no problems, except for a huge 3.5 meter growth)) The smell is on the whole area, I will soon enjoy sugar flowers))
