11/4 130am Lights up to 77 watts 4.3 grams Maxi-Grow powder this week. Using mix from last week. Will probably switch to Bloom by Wed.
11/5 12am Canopy Creations LST things are great resistance training builds huge branches!!!
They are amazing. 10am growing fast and big after today’s watering!!!
Garlic muffin and fatso have the thickest branches that I’ve ever seen the side branches are thicker than what I got when I was growing in bigger containers so these nutrients and the soil and this light wattage seems to be a good formula I have to save this and work on it And stressing with the Canopy Creations has doubled the diameter of the branches that I have been stressing. Just great results.
11/6 Galic is the strongest so far her branches are THICK, a perfect 4 cola grow. Each of the 4 branches are as thick as the main stem on my first few tries at this.
12am They were all dry gave water probably last week using Grow switching to Bloom nutrients. Extremely strong plants from Seedsman!!!! When I finally got them going I found using Maxi-Grow & Rapid Start made a huge difference!!! Only Rapid Start for the first week.
11/7 1am GM & CA are huge now!!
lights up 89W as the leaves fold up a little for the heat I will raise them an inch or so. 1pm did water today. They are starting to flower
11/8 12:30am Switched to Bloom nutrients yesterday after the last feeding with Grow they all went to sleep right away after that and are waking up now with flowers forming. I will use 4grams Bloom, 0.4 Purpinator, 0.5 Rapid Start, 0.4 Silica, 0.4 Cal/Mag. Silica causes fluctuations in pH.
2am Galic is a MONSTER, and Seedsman is out of them. Fatso is next for size. I can not believe how huge the branches are this technique of 4 colas in a small 1 gallon container. These plants will be perfect for this
9am LST crazy day!!! I have never been able to train the small set of first branches that come off the first node on plants before until seedsmen Faso and garlic🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
11/9 1am flowering I might have to split them up into 2 tents they are all getting bigger than I thought they could, this is just great! after 20 fails I think im getting this small grow style worked out.
1:30pm moved the RSQ's into tent 3. Tent 2 not big enough but I'll make it work. Once I harvest the plants from the 🎃 Halloween All the Darkness grow it will be easier. Galic & Fatso by Seedman are HUGE very thick branches, thick side branches responds to training extremely well. Strongest F1's!

week 3 is a tough rn not gonna lie shes yellowing extremely fast and shes begging me for potassium. i was just giving her 2 tsps to 3 gallons of water. as of today (jan 8 2022) i gave her a feed of 1 and 1/4 bloom and 1/4 veg nutes to try to fight the yellowing. i honestly dont know if that was the right thing to do most threads i read just said to add some nitrogen but idk if dyna gros bloom and grow are meant to be mixed. especially this late in flower. either way its too late i already gave it to her i guess now all i can do is wait and see what happens. you can see how fast the yellowing is happening too.

Welcome guys
Here we are finally at the reviews of this strain from seed bank Barneys farm, called
UTOPIA HAZE
I must say that I enjoyed cultivating it 🙂🌱
The plant didn't bother me too much, it was pretty good..
It lends itself well to cultivation in scrog or in any case practicing lst 👌
It also reacted very well to more than one topping..
Honestly, as you can read through the various weeks, at the beginning the intention was to limit yourself to a single topping, so as to obtain 6 big final buds..
"Unfortunately" ,sometimes, I vape too much weed and end up doing some bullshit 😓
Indeed
As you can see in week 9..
Accidentally, while cleaning the growbox, I broke a branch of the plant..
At that point I decided to toppinf all 6 of the main branches ✂️✂️
From here, another 12 were born, plus other smaller ones that were already present, took on strength
🌱🌱👉🌳
In the end the buds were and are practically all the same size, the main ones
And very full of fragrant resin 💯🔥
The scent has fruity and earthy tones with hints of haze 🍊🍋🍭
I believe it is the most indicative phenotype towards this 🙌
And honestly, the fact that haze notes don't prevail makes me happy, because in the long run I don't really appreciate it..
But I love the structure of sativas and can't wait to grow a serious one..
Anyway
The effect is quite balanced between a mentally socializing high, but with a relaxed physique 🧘♂️🗣️
Also excellent for sports🏃♂️🚵♀️🏋️♀️
Obviously better vaporized 👌👌
But as you can see in the video, I always do a smoke test to evaluate well 😎
And this produces a lot of oil, as well as having a fairly white-ash..
The test and photos are just over two months after the cut 📆
For more info on this cycle, I invite you to scroll week by week where I wrote down everything I did, I hoped and I believe the best 😉
At least of my abilities..
And that's all ganja lovers 💚
I thank everyone for their support and appreciation : 1:: 1:: 1:
Great genetics as always Barney's farm 🌞
And thanks a lot to Grow diaries for this space 🙏🙏
Ciao ✌️
🇮🇹

Day 70 - It takes 5 days for the soil to dry out, with a 2.5 gallon dosage of the above listed nutrients.
She has been selectively de-leafed, since the last major defoliation.
The goal from now to harvest, is to maximize the light penetration, and airflow throughout the canopy, while sacrificing as few leaves as possible!

Started the week with a good watering as she had a double feed end of last week. She took 4L de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 and no run off, added another 1L and see run off forming on all sides.
She is a happy, strong 💪 plant !!
The buds development is nice on this strain! I like to see the calyxes stacked like this, I'll get some macros tomorrow.
Smelling like lemon sherbet it's insane 🤯 or a old school sweety shop.

This week has gone great. My lovely lady's are thirsty and taking there nutrients wonderfully. I have increased there water and nutrients intake and they are responding well. They continue to grow rapidly I am moving there light almost daily. I'm running out of vertical room.. All the hard work is paying off, they are starting to show there reward of amazing bud sites developing everywhere. A few more weeks and they will get added micronutrients. I'm pumped to see there development coming soon

08.09.25 the first week of September was a mix of sun and clouds on the balcony. The seedsman strains continue their road to frosty flowers and the quick sherbets now also join in the tracks. Repeated H2O2 Spraying didn't fight the powdery mildew on the Sherbets enough for me to let it go, I'll get some hardware store product to have tried everything in time instead of yapping afterwards. Also I applied 100g of flower fertilizer as top dressing. Thanks to Bavarian Krauts for hooking me up with this cheaper alternative to the greenhouse feeding line, it performed very nice on the first half of flowering, now this is the dose for the last chapter of 2025 making sure nutrients last to the end of the season. There are still leaves turning yellow on the flowering plants but the amount has come down and the overall structure now seems ready to support the buds and give them good direct light as well.

The girls look really nice, growing strong and fast, except 1, I’m growing 2 Alakazam from Seedmakers and 2 Tangerine Dream from Barney’s. T
There’s one Alakazam that has presented problems since germination. Some of the leaves have yellow-brown dots, most of her root system is healthy, but it has some brown areas, it seems kinda weak overall, it’s the one that has grown more but the one showing problems.
The other Alakazam and the 2 Tangerine Dream are looking really nice.
Have been doing 50% nute strength feeding, adjusting ph level daily and showing them a lot of love. Should I do something different with the Alakazam or is it just a weak seed? Thanks!

ROYAL QUEEN CBG AUTO
ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS
Week #4 overall
Week #3 Veg
This week she really took off stretched along with side growth she's doing well in the organic soil and with the FOOP nutrient line. This strain is great for cancer patients as far dealing with symptoms and not getting the high.
Stay Growing!!

Day 35 and things are moving along fantastic and all the girls are very happy.I typically wouldn’t run so many different strains in one tent but Fast Buds genetics are very versatile.I can already tell these girls will have strong,amazing buds in the upcoming weeks into Christmas 🎄😊
