I have started flushing with pH-adjusted Flawless Finish solution, expecting to harvest somewhere around the end of this week, although I will continue monitoring pistils and trichs. Upd: Added back 50% base nutrients and some flowering additives after researching some of the first responses to my flushing question. I learn every day. Even that which was scientifically proven true one day, might be even more scientifically proven absolutely false some time later (not related to flushing specifically). Thank you kings! Upd 2: Okay okay I cooked her with some cosmic rays or whatever those Chinese quantum bars emit — purple rays, I'll call it — that's on me. Turned them 30% down to see what's up. Light burn was not on my mind, because otherwise the leaves were not really curving that much, considering that this is 3 weeks overdue wrt advertised. Sorry about that, did not pay enough attention.

Nov 20, 2019 The plants are doing well. Gave them and the soil in the entire 5 gallon pots a good drenching with a compost tea, kelp, alfalfa, fish hydrysolate, and molasses blend. I'm also realizing I could be watering these girls a bit more. Being a newby I'm over cautious of over watering. But I'm finding the light airy soil mix I made combined with fabric pots.... the soil dries rather quickly. No signs of under watering, but I think I can water them more. This week I'll start watering a couple of cups daily and once a week give the whole pot a good drenching to keep the rest of the soil (where the plants haven't grown into yet) damp.✌️ Nov. 22, 2019 Well I think the girls are starting to give off a little scent. Opened the doors to the room and noticed a slight aroma of woodsy dank. Put my nose right up to the plant.... and yup, they starting to smell. Nov. 23, 2019 Noticed the front row was growing faster and taller than back row. At the start of this week I swapped the rows, moved 2 Zkittlez and 1 Californian Snow to the back row, 2 Californian Snow and 1 Zkittlez to the front row. Today I started LST'ing the taller plants, 2 Californian Snow and 1 Zkittkez. I hope the other 3 catch up soon. I want to keep these all close together. Nov. 24, 2019 I've decided to keep separate diaries here at growdiaries for each of these two strains. Reason is I can focus on journaling the growing characteristics, experiences both good and bad regarding each strain independently. Also after spending time here at growdiaries, I've realized this will make it easier for fellow growers growing or researching the same strains I am to sort through diaries regarding these specific strains when looking for information. I will still update this diary regularly but it will be general updates of the overall grow, environment changes, watering/ feeding schedule, and anything else this grow experiences good and bad without getting into great detail regarding each individual plant. I have provided the links to the strain specific diaries below. Please look them up and follow along. Since this is my first growing evidence ever you never know what kinda crazy shit you'll see.✌️ https://growdiaries.com/diaries/44659-fastbuds-zkittlez-auto-grow-journal-by-weedwacker https://growdiaries.com/diaries/44676-fastbuds-californian-snow-grow-journal-by-weedwacker Nov. 25, 2019 Sitting here waiting for my windows 10 top update...I thought it'd update this diary. Started to LST the 3 tallest plants... earlier I posted the front row was growing faster than the back row. That was Saturday Nov. 23. I LST'd the other 3 the next day. I'll have more details in the individual diaries... links posted above. Started watering today 6 cups/ pot. This seems about right as I'm getting very little run off and the bottoms of all the fabric pots are wet. I found this Hydrofarm soil moisture/ph meter in a box that was with all this equipment I acquired. The electrodes were corroded, after a little sandpaper on them I think it's working pretty well. That's it for this week. ✌️👌

Esta semana baje la dosis de N debido a un exceso presentado principalmente en las variedades vodka lemon, nos dice que esta cepa es más susceptible a sobre fertilizar. Estoy esperando conseguir la malla scrog para instalarla, dentro de estos días debería llegar. La planta madre tangie recuperada total con brotes nuevos será un placer disfrutar de nuevo esa querida tangie😋

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Hows everyone doing? Hope things are great. Another week of flower for this balcony girl. Since week 8 of flower she's been stretching 10 cm a week. This past week she only grew 5cm so I'm sure the flower stretch is over and she'll start focusing her energy on growing those buds. I'm feeding every other day still and the same amount. Only feeding bloom nutrients and in a week or so I'll start adding an organic PK booster. She got stressed again this week, the weather has been really sketchy lately.. sunny, cloudy, stormy, windy... all that in the same day 😂 So I'm doing my best to make her feel comfortable in the midst of all this weather. Some nights I mover inside in case it suddenly starts raining.. There's also less direct sunlight. Other than that things are fine, she's starting to get trichomes on some bud sites and starting to give off a nice little smell. Have to keep her save for these final and key weeks! Take care and stay safe! One love! ✌️🏽

Day 85 26/07/24 Friday Big feed today full 5L a little run offusimg de-chlorinated water pH 6. So we are through her first transition week. Starting to see sex pistils forming at end of last week. Picture and video update ✌️💚 Day 88 29/07/24 Monday Just de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today, full 5L with just under a 1L run off. Day 89 30/07/24 Tuesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today but I'm adding in Plagron Power Buds AND Plagron PK13-14 only 5ml each to 5ml water. It says to use on every irrigation from early flower so here we go. If I start getting burns I'll cut out a few advanced nutrients extras and go again from there. She is just ridiculous, robust, never stresses, healthy and just wants to throw arms out everywhere 🤣💚 Day 91 01/08/24 Thursday End of week Using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only this time.

Hey, growers I hope that all is well with your grows. I'm here to do my wk.2 check-in to update y'all on my greencrack grow. Everything is going very well so far, started all 3 of them on a small ½ tsp dosage of foxfarm's grow big and big bloom on day 10 of veg and they responded nicely. I'll be starting lst this week and will again give them ½ tsp of each nutrient in their feed.

Auto Opium went outside on 7/19 because she grew to 46 inches. This past week has been rainy so I only got to feed once. I top dressed all gals with Bloom Soil. She is in 3 gal air pot and has already consumed all nutrients in the soil and has proven to be a hungry girl. Pics were taken on Friday and Saturday. Wow the amount of yellow leaves in one day. She had another growth spurt and is 53 inches tall. Her sister photo opium is 72 inches from t the pot. Her buds are forming nicely with some slight smell if I get close.

Most of the week was spent setting up the hydro grow. Needed to build a DIY chiller since air temp in our grow room is hot, and water needs to be a good deal colder. Fridge from kijiji, garden hose, fittings, and submersible pump all in were under $100 but knowing what I know now I'd likely go with a thermoelectric chiller (DIY, with power supply and temp controller) next time around. Looking forward to tracking metrics and seeing how it goes :). Seems there's a lot of contradiction in terms of level of nutrients recommended, max water temperature, using H2O2 to boost water temp that can keep algae and rot at bay, etc. Got my hands on some Hydroguard via Amazon... despite local shops saying you can't get it in Canada... so I'm going to go with that instead of H2O2 to start, despite water temp getting up above 21 C (70 f) during the day. Fingers crossed. Update - keeping water reservoir tank under 20 C now by using reflective bubble wrap insulation on the reservoir itself and pipe insulation as well. It's a 10 C difference from the room temp, so I'm SUPER pleased with that.

3/27/25 Watering with RO water and FinalPart to wash out salts. About 2 days from now is chop time. Watering 4 times a day for 45-50sec each watering. Light at 90% intensity. Dehumidifier running 24/7 set to 45% RH, tent RH is ranging from 45-55%. Buds swelled up good. The different phenos are very visible, (A) is front left, (B) x2 to the right in front and back, (C) bis left back. (B) is definitely finishing faster than the rest, I'll try to harvest them sooner when they are done. The ladies looking beutiful.

2025-01-21 to 2025-01-27 This week, she really put on the lemon-lime smell of Chernobyl. I've pollinated her (once again) with Chemdog #2 pollen from a previous grow. I'm looking for a "stay lifted" effect, as both of these cultivars have. But, I'm hoping for more of the earthiness to come through from the Chemdog in the potential seeds that are produced.

Harvested at day 76, after 72h of darkness. Very good yield! 3.3 pounds of dry buds + 1 pound of trim The 2 keepers yielded 366 and 342g of premium quality smoke. Very uplifting and energizing high :) Love it!
