7/19 shes starting to fill out more around the top. I keep thinking about what she'll look like with buds on her 7/21 watered and took pictures 7/22 she has most her dark green color back. She was hungry for nitrogen for awhile and shes responded nicely

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 6/8- Here we go into Week Five and all is looking great with the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod from FastBuds! Our weather is beautiful now with daytime high temp's in the 80's F without a lot of rain so I am watering her daily at sundown with approximately 4-5g of well water. 6/10- I watered the Papaya Sherbet today and also did a little canopy maintenance, removing some leaves and some small shoots that would have taken energy better used elsewhere on the plant. 6/12- I gave the Papaya Sherbet photo a good watering today at sundown via the garden hose with straight well water. I am also planning on top dressing her in roughly 7-10 days from now with a blend of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and a little of their 2-8-4 along with some Wiggle Worm castings and a little Down to Earth Bio-Fish. 6/14- Another week gone and this little lady has really come along considering her late start and getting chewed on when she was young. All in all the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod is shaping up to be one fine looking plant! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

My oldest girl had her flush this week and its about time for her to finish up. I will continue the journal for my 2nd oldest so stay tuned!

The Black Devil's OG is trucking along without issue, while the Northern light is a tad on the droopy side at night and is likely expecting earlier night hours. I will likely adjust my light schedule to reduce the stress. The videos posted came out pretty well, considering they came out of a cell phone camera. 400x ends up being really blurry as the phone can't focus properly to compensate, but you can still see all the bacteria dancing around. Some nematodes and ciliates there too.

Week 5 flowering is over and also the stretch, just 1 cm in one week. Since I am a first time grower I don't know what to expect in the coming 4 weeks, it's really excitng my new hobby 😎

Mentha De Croco | Week 16 from Seed – Week 5 of Flower Welcome to the wild side of the garden, where structure meets soul and every leaf has a story to tell. We’re deep in flower now, and our Mentha De Croco mutants are showing us what it truly means to be one-of-a-kind. Each girl in this tent is a canvas — some broad and expressive, others tight and intricate, and all of them thriving under the rhythm of precision care and the flow of intention. Feeding This Week | Aptus Holland Clean Program (Mineral Line): This week, we bring power and push, dialing in both structure and development with a nutrient stack designed for the mid-flower leap. Here’s what’s going into the mix and why: Regulator 0.15 ml/L Sets the tone for the mix. It improves nutrient uptake, strengthens cell walls, and enhances resistance to stress. Always added first for best results. System Clean 0.25 ml/L Sterile and safe. Keeps the root zone clean and oxygen-rich, no room for pathogens, only healthy, vigorous growth. RO Water Conditioner 0.8 ml/L Balances and stabilizes RO water by buffering it and making minerals more bioavailable. All-in-One Liquid 2 ml/L The backbone of the feed. Full-spectrum minerals in perfect balance, calcium, magnesium, nitrogen, P & K, all instantly plant-available. Breakout Powder Low-dose booster for bloom phase We reintroduce Breakout Powder this week to gently push the flower sites into their next stage of development, not overloading, just guiding with finesse. This formulation boosts phosphate and potassium uptake, critical for stacking flowers while keeping internodes tight. Reservoir Stats: pH: 6.23 EC: 1.58 Water Temp: 18.8°C Environment & Vibe: They’re under the Future of Grow LED lights, bathing in full-spectrum glory, all managed and finely balanced by the reliable Trolmaster system. It’s a controlled jungle in here — beauty meets data. Plant Notes: Each plant continues to grow as its own universe. The flower formations are odd, beautiful, twisting, and stacking in ways that only mutants can. This is where form meets fascination — a pure expression of what cannabis genetics can be when you let go of expectations and allow nature to do her freaky, flawless thing. Shoutouts & Infinite Gratitude: To @terpyz_genetics for blessing us with this bouquet of mutant magic To @aptus_holland, the clean science behind the healthiest roots and biggest smiles To @trolmaster , for mastering the environment with ease To @futureofgrow, the light at the center of this visual storm To the Grow Diaries platform, the community, the silent readers, the loud learners, the lovers, the haters, we’re all growing together 🙌 Let’s never forget: Beauty isn’t uniform.

Denke noch so ne Woche dann ab zum trocknen

First full on flower week for these, they seem really f-ing quick for some reason, maybe it's the smart protein ... At this rate i'm gonna have an august harvest fully 12 weeks from seed lol, i'm not holding my breath because i'm realistic, but that would be f-ing nice as shit lol anyway i'm just following these ladies' cycle and giving some flower nutrients as well as some flower specific micro , had some bioflo around so just used that - didnt really over think this one, i'm just enjoying the show, sneaked into their room while they were sleeping to snap some pics , pretty dramatic with the lighting , hope you enjoy these ! Just a word before I let you go : i do "touch up" these photos by clicking the magic wand on my phone's camera function, so if these appear "too much" or "too light" or whatever, just let me know i'll save time and effort , like i said, hope you enjoy these 🚀

Hello masters and beginners ... it was truly a fantastic discovery cultivate these splendid beans ..... they produced the fantastic weed .... sure .... they were not very fast .... but the wait will repay the Your sacrifices and your patience, trust yourself At one of the two I carried out a supercrop to the main stem bending it at the height of the underlying gems ..... his reaction was .... an explosion of trichomi! Many dipiù compared to the sister to whom he was only practiced LST .... ---------------------------------------------------------- Happy and abundant weed crops for everyone

So amazing strain

This girl is packing the buds up she doing nicely removed very few leaves to get light to a few buds smell has just started to get strong hard to explain like a sweet diesely smell not smelt anything like it. Hoping she's stopped growing vertically because she's the same hight as the other two so now will have an evenish canopy lowered base notes down not much else to say thanks for reading happy growing guys

hi all. Here we are finally here with some of the ladies out and hanging to dry. It had been a fun week with trimming and hanging the Girl Scout cookie ladies. They finished so perfectly with a beautiful colour and terpenes oozing off them. Everytime I go up to the room , their sweet smell hits me before I get to see the other ladies. With about 6 days for #2 and 4 for #1 , I expect a few more days before they are even close to jar ready for a cure. Thankfully as they are organic and not needing to deal with leftover sodium based nutes, the terpenes should remain fairly intact with the very low 8°c and plenty of airflow keeping them rotating slowly. Rh is around 50% but not a mould risk thanks to the draughty eaves. The remaining Amnesia Haze ladies are like wound springs now. They are still 2 weeks from their supposed harvest time but look ready now. If I didn't know that there is a second flush about to pop them wide open and swell them even more , it would be easy to pull them before their true ending . Still very smokable at this stage now but i am confident that they will have a second flush of fresh pistils any day now. There are signs of it starting on a couple of the mains so i will be using the Dragon force to support this for about 7 days , which is designed to boost them at their finishing stages. I rate this product and use it every grow. Well worth a look. The natural fading and the temperature drops at lights off are creating some amazing colours throughout the canopy now too. Thankfully experience allows me to enjoy this kaleidoscope of autumnal colours and not panic that I have a major deficiency going down. There are some nicely cannabalising leaves in the canopy too which is also a good sign that they are performing just as nature intended and gorging on the stored goodness from the big fans left on. They are a multi purpose leaf for the whole process from veg to finish , they change their role as the grow progresses and as soon as she notices that they are taking more to keep alive and become a sink instead of a gain , she will cannabalising the stores built up and shed the leaf herself. This is why I get stuck with the whole defoliation debate. With that said , I hope your weeks has been as much fun as mine and that you will be joining me in the upcoming tester strain runs of Fast Buds new 2022 unreleased strains to see what's in the pipeline for the autoflower world. Be lucky folks.

Plant suffering from mite attack! Isolated awaiting the arrival of the Boveril (Beauveria bassiana). 😔

I did not now the weight of how much dry or wet flower I have because I decided to freeze right away all of the flower and after 24 hours in the fridge I created bubble hash unfortunately I only took pictures of the first batch total amount 58.6 grams of bubble hash of excellent quality despite treating this plant really badly it give me a very abundant flower With incredible density

Basically just watching her become seasoned..She will be having her last feeding this week.. She looks absolutely gorgeous if I must say so myself 😆 🤣

Chopping her down shortly after this photo shoot! Super happy with the results! Very frosty nugs! Dense and sticky! Couldn’t ask for more in a 7.5 oz coke can—- doesn’t get any smaller than that! ✌️💚🌿💨
