Growdiaries Grow 20 Welcome to my 20th grow on growdiaries, I'm doing 4 plants in this grow. This grow will consist of. #1 FFNA2410 Fastbuds test (?days flower) #2 FFNA2411 Fastbuds test (?days flower) #3 FFNA2412 Fastbuds test (?days flower) #4 Acapulco Gold MSNL (56-70days flower) This diary is focusing on: #1 FFNA2410 Fastbuds tester. I have little to no information about this strain until its been released for sale. The only information I do have is it is a fastflowering photoperiod. I have grown fastbuds fastflowering photos before and they were πŸ”₯ so 🀞these will also be great. Equipment on Smart plugs. 1. Light= Viparspectra Xs2000 2. Extractor= Ac infinity 4 inch 3. Oscillating fans/cameras= on 4 ext. 4. Humidifier= ram 5L/Dehumidifier= 2L 5. Feed= water pump. 6. Radiator= KW Germination. Tent settings. Extractor controller settings High temp= 23c Low temp= c Temp step=0c High Rh= 70% Low Rh= % Rh step=0% Speed max=5 Speed min=1 Smart controller settings (during lights on). Lights on=24/0 Radiator on=<c Radiator off=>c Humidifier on=<60% Humidifier off=>65% Dehumidifier on=>% Dehumidifier off=<% VPD aim=0.4-0.8 DLI aim=14-16 EC aim=0.4 PH aim=6.0 πŸ—“οΈ Sun 17/12/23 #1 πŸ“‹ Chose the seed and placed it in a shot glass of water at 10.30pm. πŸ—“οΈ Mon 18/12/23 #1 πŸ“‹ At 7.00am tapped seed and it sunk so put it in wet paper towel. 10.00pm filled 0.6L pots with biobizz light mix and wet with 100ml water (5ml/L roots). πŸ—“οΈ Tue 19/12/23 #1 πŸ“‹ 7.00am tap root breaking through shell so put in soil. 5.30pm started running tent. Light 24/0 Light distance 87cm Light power=73w=30% Dli=14.5 πŸ—“οΈ Wed 20/12/23 #1 πŸ“‹ 5.00pm looks like soil movement, sprayed soil. πŸ—“οΈ Thur 21/12/23 #1 (Day 0) πŸ“‹ 7.00am has broken ground, leaves not open yet. So that's the end of germination for this one. From getting the seed wet to breaking ground took 5 days. She will stay in the small pot now until the root system has developed enough to transplant. Back soon. Take it easy.

Jun 10: Getting droopy. Watered less than half gallon of Ph 6.7 water. Jun 12: That watering really gave a growth spurt! Gonna bump the humidity up to a max of 81% til we get further into veg. Jun 13: Plant is tall enough to tie some good looking limbs down and also the main stem to the side. Jun 15: Buckets are getting lighter, but the soil is moist, meaning my humidity was too high. That lead to some mold and algae that I will treat with spray Neem oil. Smells terrible, but should do the trick. Lowering humidity to 65% for a bit, then will probably get closer to 75% over the next few days.

So we are in week 2 of flower I ran out of Dutch pro and my hydro shop didn't have any in stock so I had to swap to canna 450ml A&B I've also added some bud blood. So today I did some defoliation to anything below my scrog net and tucked some of the bigger fan leaves to expose the new bud sites. I also raised my light a few inches to allow the ladies to grow into it. 21/5/21 The girls are growing fast I did some defoliation 2 days ago and I had to repeat today 26/5/21 Took some fan leaves off that where blocking bud sites only a small handful needed to be removed, I gave them a feed ppm 946 ph 6.3, bud sites are looking nice and healthy I've got plenty of air flow throughout my tent, have yet to notice any aroma but still very early days. That's all for now gays and gals happy growing and pleasant smoking ;)

I fed her some molasses last weekend. Personally I never really notice much difference after feeding molasses but I still try feeding it 2 weeks before harvest anyway. I have beed giving her just water since then. Going to flush real good this weekend, then let her dry out til the following weekend when I am going to harvest her. That should put the harvest date right around 1/27/18, which would be a full 3 months of growth - seed to harvest. The Blue Mammoth has been just a great plant to grow so far. I did not do anything to her except some defoliation. No bending, training, topping, etc... And she looks awesome in my opinion. She's bigger than the Girl Scout Cookies I harvested a few weeks ago, which yielded 2.6 oz. Looking forward to harvest, cure and smokeπŸ‘

Just put them in the towel today. Expecting them to pop within 24 hrs and ready to plant in 3 days so spending the time thinking up names for the 2 girls They've both popped bang on the estimate. One even has a 3mm long taproot already. My coir has been reclaimed from 2 previous grows and the perlite has degraded so rather than wash up stones from the garden I've thrown in a few handfuls of lego bricks. They're non reactive to anything I'm going to put in there so should work just fine. Plus I've got plenty of the shit kicking around. I went back today and nearly shit myself at the progress. 1 had nearly sprouted fully so I got the nutes mixed and stuck them in the coir with an extra drink and a bottle canopy. Week 1 will begin with the first ground being broken

See yall! πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘»πŸ‘½πŸ˜ˆ Edit: great smoking, relaxed but not much couch lock, good after a day of work, will try on days of to see, I’m fucking happy bros!!!!!

Harvest Week 24πŸ’š she made it to 300g wet weight after a slight wet trim. The buds are really solid and smelling amazing fruity, gassy and floral. Now she is drying and I will update the harvest as soon as I know the dry weight.

Not going to lie, with everything going on in the world right now, taking pictures of the plants was not high on my priority list. I basically snapped a couple of pics and took a couple of videos today and decided that will be it. This is not the place to get political, but I truly hope that against all odds by the time of my next post peace will have returned to Ukraine. In terms of the grow, plants seem to be doing great. Over the past couple of days, the buds have started to fatten up to the point where I think my yield will at least be on par with the last run. I'm still giving her another 3-4 weeks before I think they'll be finished up, but it honestly could be anywhere from 2-6 weeks, just have to wait and see. On a side note the plants are becoming more and more different, to the point where they don't even look like the same pheno. One plant has airy, larfy buds but has made some progress over past 24 hours towards tightening up a bit. The other plant has these fat, dense, stocky nugs that look very much like an indica strain, we will see how this affects the harvest. Thanks as always for taking the time to read my update, hoping for a more cheery update next week.

Getting some fade, might be the cold weather, finding it hard to keep this area heated right at night.. All in all, buds are swelling with sweet smells arising Following High Powered Organics Gro-dirt Gro-Guide with all the nutrients and soils. @highpoweredorganics or www.highpoweredorganics.com

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2201 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... πŸ€ͺ But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Mars Hydro Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/15- Here we go into the second week of veg for the FastBuds Tester #2201 girl and she's certainly on a roll! When I checked on her today her medium was still moist so I'll let her go and check her tomorrow. Basically at this point in the run all I have to do is make sure her medium doesn't dry out, fill the humidifier and watch her grow! 🀩 12/17- Yesterday I watered her and increased the amount to roughly 0.25g of de-chlorinated water with 3ml/g of Botanicare Silica Blast (added to begin to help strengthen her branches) and then ph'd to 6.4 @ 74℉. I've also increased the output of the HLG 650R's to 35% which equates to about 230w at the wall which, of course has raised the temp's in the tent so I've also begun to run the A/C unit in the grow room which is keeping the temp's now at 75℉ in the tent. The RH is running around 75-78% RH giving a VPD of .67-.74 which I'll take! πŸ˜πŸ‘ Other than what I've mentioned above, all I did was fill the humidifier with distilled water and watched her grow! 🀩 12/19- Today I watered her with 0.25g of de-chlorinated water with 3ml/g Fish Head Farms Fish Sh!t and 1 tsp/g Unsulfured Molasses added which was ph'd to 6.3 @ 74℉. I'm now watering through the bottom, filling the drip pan and letting the plant draw up the water into itself. I am also watering from the top, but only just enough to moisten the medium. She is really starting to take off now, a sure sign her roots are beginning to get well developed, and I'm thinking of going ahead and topping her in the next day or so. 12/21- Well, yesterday I went ahead and topped this girl! Hopefully she won't stress out over this and starts shooting out those secondary branches. Today I watered her with 0.25g of straight de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.3 @ 74℉. I gave about 3/4 of it into her drip pan so she can draw it up into her medium, the rest I applied to the top of the medium just to moisten it. Well there's two weeks of veg behind us now, Week Three of vegetation is beginning and she should really start to take off! πŸ˜πŸ‘ πŸ˜ŽπŸ’š Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! πŸ’ͺπŸ˜ŽπŸ€™

Week 4 (April 19th-25th) This week the plant had 4 fan leaves coming out from the main stem. The blade count went up by 2 (from 3 blades to 5). The plant was very healthy and strong.

04/27 - Day 30 ~510PAR across the canopy. More training and a little trimming to get some air flow under the girls. 04/30 - Day 33 ~540PAR across the canopy. Switched over to the VIPARSPECTRA KS5000. Coverage is a WHOLE lot better and will allow me to start the next batch soon. All the girls are starting to drink more, adding 1 gallon back to the reservoir daily for the last couple days. Noticing some yellow tips on leaves, but getting super bushy.
