FASTBERRY (Fastbuds) 21 Days from sprout. Still a little easy with the nutrients this week. She seems to be doing well. I tore a small piece of a fan leaf by accident! Was considering some LST, possibly pony tailing. Although I did start some bending and securing of the main stock to try and open up some of the mid level to the light.

Require regular trimming and maintenance to keep them healthy as much as possible so the girls can thrives…. Take up a lot of water for sure. But will update on the way and picture . Other than that I’m happy and satisfied and will look into Cereal Milk from Premium Cultivar as well. On day 12 will take it down from hang drying in 3 b 3. I will grow 6 plants from here on out instead of 12 . Give room for plants to space out.

Cream Cookies looking great! Bud sites everywhere. The leaves are a little more yellowish than I prefer. Going to try backing down on the nutes and give her Recharge only for the next week or two to see if that helps green things up at all.

well this smooth smoke is now coming to an end and I still have plenty from last time, so I wont be growing this one again for a little while, unless someone asks for the smoothest Ive ever smoked. In the home stretch.

loved growing this girl didn't need to tend to her much she does like to drink but other than that grew with no issues she has a good stretch and branches out well has an excellent bud to leaf ratio with more buds than leaves I was excited about this as I'd heard great stuff and she definitely lives up to the reputation thanks to all who help comment and make the site what it is thanks for reading happy growing guys

I have to say, overall out of all 5 purple Lemonade seeds I’m not very happy with the results so far considering they was a little more pricey & the fact that I know how good these plants can turn out! Not sure if I just got some bad genetics or what’s up but pretty bummed about this run so far😅😅 hopefully things will start to look up! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🌱 Day 24 - Decided to pull the smallest purple lemonade that wasn’t doing anything so I can go ahead and get something else going in it’s place! Watered the other ladies today. Day 25 - Ladies are still stretching like crazy!

Unfortunately ive managed to overwater my young plants when experimenting with a new substrate. They looked really droopy with grey edges and yellowing already, so i decided to restart this post for a second try germinating directly into my living soil, like im used to do it. 📆 [23rd of August] Ive put the 2 remaining seeds directly into my homemade living soil. Exactly 72 hours later, on the 26th, one has popped up and showed their germination leafs. I am planning to repot the plants into their "real" home after about 14 days of vegetation. That is gonna consist of 2 substrate levels in a 40l container. The bottom 2/3 is going to be a mix of peat, pumice, sand & vermiculite, the top third is gonna be a layer of my homemade living soil, which is made of 1/3 peat, 1/3 compost and 1/3 pumice 4-12mm & Spelt Husk 50%/50% (measured by volume) amended with kelp meal, sproutet bean meal, basalt rock dust, microbial mushroom biomass (chitin), oyster grit, gypsum, charcoal, bentonite and tiny amounts of bone meal & horn meal. It is my first time growing in a (partly) nutrient poor substrate. I want to do some kind of Experiment this time, as i have not seen many growers use "hydroponic" /nutrient poor substrate paired with the "living soil" approach & organic feeding. I'm trying to boost the growth by providing plenty of oxygen and water like hydroponics does, without needing to use those mineral salt based fertilizers or frequently having to discard "old" substrate. In my mind this idea would work similar to an "Autopot" system, where you prodive water and oxygen mainly in the bottom with some small amounts of nutrients, but feed mainly from the top by amending. Ive seen this in the "Build a soil" youtube channel. I've set their homes up already a couple weeks ago and moistened it to let it cook together, so the living organisms could colonize the bottom subtrate before transplanting. (Edit: Change of plans, those "homes" are gonna go to my Red Hot Cookies instead, ive just transplanted her right into an 8l pot to become a mother. Its made the same way, without the cooking together in prior part.) The plants are going to be fed purely organic/natural material by top dressing with different amendments like fish hydrolysate, basalt, kelp, gypsum, guano and this "living soil - grow" fertilizer i've showed in the pictures. Furthermore i am going to be using homemade nutrient ferments on cannabis for the first time. Ive already tested those on roses, tomatoes and some houseplants. (made from fish, insect, kelp, aloe vera, guano, kitchen scraps, plants etc). My goal is to additionally boost the plant growth by watering these quickly available nutrients. It should contain all the essential minerals plants need, as well as phytohormones, amino acids, vitamins, humic and fulvic acid, beneficial bacteria and fungi. Stay hyped with me! [Edit Week 4] I am not as happy with the results as ive expected it. The plants are looking pretty fine and growing nicely, but i dont see any benefit compared to pure living soil yet. It almost seems like the plant is growing a little bit slower than usual and just needs to be fed more with this method, i dont see any "hydro like" boost happening... Maybe i needed to fertigate her more often and topdress more, i didnt want to try out too much though as i want to keep this plant as a mother. I dont have much time to do experiments with clones, so im probably just going to go for it as planned and hope that they will like the system in the big 40l pots. Probably going to amend the soil heavier then by topdressing more and fertilize with every watering later in veg - until mid/late flower.

Today is day 32 of bud for these ladies. They are are swelling up good and put on a lot of resin. I’m very excited for this harvest. That’s because these ladies each have there own person Tropic smell to them. The OG is kinda orange cream soda terps. The melato almost has a coconut terp profile to it. And the Trainwreck smells like some kind of wild berry. So I’m definitely glad I got clones form each of these so I can run them again next round. Except for the OG. I have them their last feeding in week 4 on around day 29. I just did a top dress of bio live and rose and flower by down to earth. Anyways thanks for checking out the garden. Make sure to go to my page and check out my other grow journals.🤙

89 days!!! I came back after an unplanned long vacation, and when I saw her I immediately realized that today is harvest day, it's a pity that I haven't seen her ripening for the last 12 days, I wasn't with her:D but the result really impressed me, I've never had such a beautiful strain :) the girl has been growing throughout the growth cycle, she's been growing really vigorously!!! Her smell really reminds me of cherries :) the flowers have grown very stiff and full of trichomes, I can't wait to taste her:) the update will be after the harvest has dried up:) good luck to everyone:).

Water rainwater + epsom salt and diluted nutrients with more total water of 180 ppm ph 6.2 temperature of the 20 ° solution, gradually using more water due to the 10% runoff temperature, slightly relieving the roots without much removal, sprayed with water without ppm complement due to perspiration and water loss when it's hot, more soil around the stem "I made some abrasions around the stem that is now covered with soil in order to create more quick roots, added more mycorrhizae around to heal and root and stretch with mycorrhizae. Always covered with coconut fiber so it doesn't dry quickly without absorbing enough, I really need one more exhaust fan to pull in fresh cold / fresh air from the outside in, and limit one little use of fans since air conditioning is not part of my plans at the moment.

Oggi sono 21 giorni da quando ho messo il seme nella terra. Per non aver mai fatto crescere nessuna pianta in vita mia sono molto soddisfatto. Avevo letto tantissime cose prima di iniziare , e fino ad ora possa dire che più facile farlo che leggerlo, decine di siti tanto regole simili, ma tantissime regole contrapposte dai vari siti. 3 febbraio primo giorno terza settimana passato, solita situazione 4 piantine felici una ancora bloccata. Oggi mi sono divertito a silenziare gli estrattori. E come dicevo più facile farlo direttamente. Oggi fatto un esperimento di lst . La pianta dopo poche ore ha rialzato la testa. Stasera applicherò lst a tutti i piantini. 23 giorno dalla semina Approfitto del sole e della temperatura mite per fargli godere di un giorno di sole. 26 giorno ho alzato la lampada fino ad 80 cm, misurando con un fotometro mi sono reso conto che a quella distanza la mia lampada da 50000 lumen quasi. E quindi ho capito a cose erano dovute le bruciature dei giorni passati. Sto pensando di prendere una lampada meno potente. Però con questi accorgimenti le piante negli ultimi 4 giorni sono raddoppiate se non triplicate

Was a good learning experience. I'm not going to get near the weight I expected from these, and though the bud turned out really tasty, I don't think I'll grow it again. I'm not sure I would recommend to a newbie. It was in some awesome living soil, but some deficiencies crept up in flower, and I wasn't impressed with the roots upon post mortem exam. On second look, even the photo on msnl's site shows some spots that looks like deficiencies. Definitely some grower errors here, but all of my ongoing grows faced the same challenges and these just seemed less adaptable. Anyhow, I've been graced with some clean meds for now, and I'm a happy growin hooman. 👽 I also probably won't do any more autoflowers moving forward. Just not my style. There are some great peeps doing outstanding work with autos though. Best to them and all! :) D82 - 12.12 - cut the second auto cheese yesterday. Let her go as long as I was comfortable. Think her run in with the gnats resulted in the the deficiencies. Awfully covered in trichs, so it should make for tasty smoke after dried, trimmed and cured.. Shall update
