CHERRY 🍒 COLA by FASTBUDS Week #9 Overall Week #4 Flower This week she's had to deal with all the elements from the heat to pests she's done a great job for a plant in late flower to be in the intense heat she's got some good 👍 genetics!! She's stinky for a little plant smells great!! Stay Growing!! FASTBUDS CHERRY 🍒 COLA

Al final de la jornada realizamos poda apical

well, it's exactly 12 weeks :) and my house is full of lemon aroma :) the girl endured really difficult growth, but she coped with everything perfectly :) who followed the growth, you saw that she grew on the balcony for 10 weeks, and she spent the last 2 in the grow tent :) 500 gr wet weight !!!!:) , before putting it in the ground I expected less than 10 g dry yield :D then this growth turned out super well, if it wasn't for my vacation I would have let it grow for about 2 weeks I think. but everything is still very good, I'll go home, fix it and do a smoke review :).

Sembra ok,ma sarà un problema il risciacquo...quella di destra ha già un tricomi lattiginosi,su alcune zuccherine sono ambrati...le altre ancora hanno i pistilli bianchi, nemmeno li guardo i tricomi... sembra abbiano 15/20 giorni di differenza!

*english version below* HydroLab Germany – Woche 5: Transfer-Protokoll & Nährstoff-Experiment Willkommen zurück im Labor – hier, wo die Blasen nie aufhören und die Wurzeln das wahre Forschungsobjekt sind. 🌿⚗️ 🔬 Statusbericht Die Probandinnen sind offiziell umgezogen – hinein ins große RDWC-Hauptsystem. Dort warten jetzt 30-Liter-Hydroboxen und das leuchtend orange Scrog-Netz, bereit für die finale Wachstumsphase. Nach wochenlangem Formen, Toppen und horizontalem Zwangstraining steht jetzt ein gleichmäßig breiter, dichter Teppich aus Trieben – perfekt, um das Netz Stück für Stück zu füllen. ⚙️ Neues Experiment: Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect im Test Mit dem Umzug startet auch ein neuer Versuch: Das Nährstoffsystem wurde auf Advanced Nutrients Grow, Bloom & Micro umgestellt – plus B52 als biochemischen Stimmungsaufheller. Aktuell laufen 150 ml pro Komponente im Gesamtsystem, was einen vorsichtigen EC von 1,1 mS/cm ergibt. Der Plan: Erstmal beobachten, wie die Damen auf das neue Futter reagieren, bevor nachdosiert wird. Wenn das pH Perfect-System hält, was es verspricht, könnte das die Pflege im RDWC deutlich entspannen – konstantes pH-Level wäre ein echter Gamechanger. 🌱 Beobachtungen Die Pflanzen wachsen weiterhin flach und breit, genau nach Laborvorgabe. Der blaue Adlite-Zusatz zeigt Wirkung – internodale Abstände sind kürzer, der Wuchs kompakter. Die Wurzeln? Ein Traum in Weiß, vital und kräftig verzweigt. Und für die Skeptiker gibt’s noch ein Foto aus dem Archiv: Der letzte 30-Liter-Eurobox-Wurzelblock. Viele hielten die Kisten für überdimensioniert – bis sie sahen, dass das Volumen komplett durchwurzelt war. 💦 Forschung lacht zuletzt. Nächste Schritte Triebe weiter gleichmäßig ins Netz flechten, bis ca. 75 % der Fläche bedeckt sind. EC behutsam zwischen 1,1 – 1,2 stabil halten. In Kürze: Lollipopping & Defoliation – das große Entlaubungsprotokoll. 💡 Labornotiz Gute Forschung braucht kein Schulterklopfen – nur klare Daten, sauberes Wasser und ein stabiles Wurzelmilieu. HydroLab arbeitet nicht für Likes. HydroLab arbeitet für Erkenntnis. ------------------------------------------- HydroLab Germany – Week 5: Transfer Protocol & Nutrient Trial Welcome back to the lab — where the bubbles never stop, and the roots are our main research subject. 🌿⚗️ 🔬 Status Report The subjects have officially moved to their new habitat: the main RDWC system, equipped with 30L hydro pods and a bright orange Scrog grid ready for containment. After weeks of shaping, stretching, and topping, the plants have developed a wide, even canopy that’s perfect for the Scrog transition. ⚙️ New Experiment: Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect Trial The nutrient formula has been switched to the Advanced Nutrients trio (Grow, Bloom, Micro) — assisted by B52 as a metabolic booster. Each 30L pod received 150ml of each, which resulted in a conservative EC of 1.1 to start with. We’ll monitor pH stability and uptake closely over the next few days. If the pH Perfect tech performs as advertised, it could mark a turning point for long-term RDWC consistency. 🌱 Observations Plants show strong lateral growth and a balanced response to training. Internodal spacing remains tight, thanks to the addition of the blue Adlites. Root systems continue to impress — long, dense, and pure white. One photo even shows the final root mass from the last run — the infamous “Eurobox root brick.” People laughed at the 30L containers, but seeing how completely they filled proves the design worked exactly as intended. 💦 Next Steps Keep weaving the shoots into the Scrog grid until 70–80% coverage. Maintain EC around 1.1–1.2 while monitoring uptake rate. Prepare for the main defoliation and lollipopping session once the stretch phase begins. 💡 Lab Notes Sometimes, good science means ignoring bad opinions. HydroLab doesn’t build for approval — we build for data, roots, and perfect canopies. 🔖 Tags #HydroLab #RDWC #Scrog #AdvancedNutrients #PHPerfect #B52 #DIYhydro #CannaScience #LegalGrowGermany #GrowTech #LEDgrow #MarsHydro #ACInfinity #Bluelab #RootScience

End of Week 7 CO2 is definitely increasing growth rates but also changes the game with controlling your environment now that it has to be sealed in order to not waste CO2 unnecessarily. You change one thing and it adds many other variables to keep everything in check. I am learning everyday and that's why I grow. The trellis net is doing its job and the canopy is looking nice and even. I also added a soil top-up and top dress of some BioBloom and Mycorhizae so it can start breaking down before I flip to flower next week (Slow release dry organic amendments). And the ladies are using up nutrients in the soil much faster because of the added CO2 (another variable to take into consideration - faster growth = faster nutrient consumption) In detail: -Carefully removed trellis netting -Ammended each plant individually with my soil mixture and nutrients -Placed them back in the tent -Reinstalled trellis netting and trained the ladies to shape Pest Report: Thrips VS Ladybugs... I decided to fight fire with fire - I purchased Swirski-Mites from Koppert (They are beneficial insects that feed on the eggs and larvae of thrips and other unwanted pests). As for the adult thrips - I got very lucky and found about 10 Ladybugs in my garden and decided to introduce them into my grow room as they will feed on adult thrips and any other unwanted pests. I did not spray any insecticide this week and it really seems like the ladies are happy with my new method of bio-warfare and are wilting less and less often

😁😁😁😁 all I can say on this one is wow I'm blown away with that purple I really can't wait to taste that beauty 😍 I'm still a novice so this as really excited me. I would like to give @fastbuds a shout out I have already done the chemdawg and now this your strains are brilliant 👏 this is why I'm going to do all 75 strains you have 😁😁

Nothing much to say about my grow this week. Gave he a flush with pH 6.0 to kick off the week. Day 86..... Gave her a feeding today a whole gallon. Ive been doing some research and maybe I'm feeding my plants a little too much nutrients. So from now on I will be feeding a lot less and the next day I will feed just plain water. So my plants will get nutrients every 3 or 4 days. I also bought a few advanced nutrients supplements which I'll be experimenting with. Day 87... Gave her a feeding today of advanced nutrients Nirvana and voodoo juice and pH to 5.9. Day 88.....gave her a 2l feeding today of nutrients. Also defoliated some of her big fan leaves.

It is interesting to see how much the plant has grown since I switched lights 7 days ago. #6& #7 have grow in height while #8 has filled out more Started weaving #6& #7. #8 is still 1" from trellis. I am going to set next trellis by end of week. Turned up RED/IR/UV to 50% Feed plants 9-18-22 Day 8 WOW ,I can not believe the growth since yesterday! The plants easy grew 1"-2" ! Decided to put second trellis in this morning! Feed plants 9-19-22 Day 9 Plant #7 & #8 are close to reaching the second trellis. #6 is just now starting to reach the first trellis. However the hight difference between #6,#7 & #8 is really just 2"-3". Should be able to fill fairly evenly. 9-20-22. Day 10 Feed plants this morning. The plants look green and healthy. The plants are staring to grow white pistons and showing signs of flowering! 9-21-22 Day 11 #7 & #8 have mostly reaches the second trellis #6 is past the first trellis will be interesting to see if it will reach the second All 3 plants are now showing signs of Flower. 9-22-22 💧 #6 - Ethos Cookies #16 & Grandpa's Stash #7 - Ethos Cheezy Puff #8 - Ethos Planet of the Grapes

Flowering day 22 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) Another great week that is over. They all develop exactly as it should be 💚. Since the last leaf and substrate application against tripse, I finally haven't seen any of the little biters 👍. Watering was done twice this week with 1.3 l each time (see table above for nutrients). The lowest shoots were removed so that the energy is not wasted in the lower part :-) . Otherwise, as always, everything was cleaned and checked. Fresh osmosis water was filled with stale tap water in a 100 L tank for the coming week 👍.

Tremendo avance de esta bella lemon ak by fast buds..mi primera vez con sativas , bastante fácil de cultivo , hermosa estructura y ramificación ... Subí tarde la variedad ! #greenwolvesfarmer

Day 100 Day 57 Flower 06/07/24 Saturday Flushed with de-chlorinated tap water today pH 6.0. Flushing using 10L of water with Flawless finish- I'll be using this every other flush. , getting 50% run off, I can't measure ppm, I have ordered the tool to start learning this way also. I haven't measured run off ppms before so will be interesting to see. Smelling pungent, deep greens of colour coming through, hoping over the next 2 weeks she swells as she is not as dense as I was hoping 😅 Day 10day 58 Flower 07/07/24 Sunday No feed /water today letting her dry off a little more. Updated with a short 🤩💚 Day 102 Day 59 Flower 08/07/24 Monday De-chlorinated tap Water 5L pH 6.0 + 3L Water +calmag 5ml to keep her from deficiency during 1st week of flush. Updated a short video 😁 She's getting there. Day 103 Day 60 Flower 09/07/24 Tuesday No water, letting her dry off again ABIT, noticing a huge amount of trichome production, updated a short to see 😍. Day 104 Day 61 Flower 10/07/24 Wednesday Another 10L flush today , de-chlorinated tap water pH 6.0 with flawless finish. 10ml flawless finish to 10L water. Updated pictures and video. Day 105 Day 62 Flower 11/07/24 Thursday Last day of the week, another big flush today! 10L de-chlorinated tap water pH 6.0 with 10ml Flawless finish 👌 Trichomes...😍 She maybe a 21 day flush we'll see how she goes next week with ripening. Video updated.

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Finally got that transpant done. Added a bit of root juice to help out the transplant. Won't be adding nutes until next week, directly bloom nutes.. Took waaaay to long to transplant. They didn't get any growth becuase of the bad weather these past weeks. Very bummed out about that. Two of the are already in prefower.. the tiniest i hope grows a bit more.. can't really ask for much more given the bad weather and that they're autos.. I'll for sure be doing a re run with this strain with better stable conditions. Take care out there! One love!

New week starts.* ☀️04.10.2023 I watered my garden with 80% 'Pre-flowering TriPart farmula. It's time already (2nd week of 12/12 light shedule). ☀️06.10.2023 I saw a very first pestel (stigma) on one of "Special Queen" plants today. On a 16th day of 12/12 shedule! I don't know why flowering is coming so late this time, maybe it's because of 'grow' feeding (I started to give them 'pre-flowering nutrients two days ago). I have no room in my box already. The 'vegetation' state was too long... *For full info watch previous week. Alot of photos and full destription there. ☀️08.10.2023 Now I know why my plants doesn't start floweryng by so long (almost 3 weeks). I've accidantaly sat a light shadule to 13/11 instead of 12/12. Meanwhile, they are huge... ☀️11.10.1023 Watering with 'TA Tripart'+'TA Bio Bloom'+'TA Mineral Magic'. I noticed that 'Mineral Magic'(Silicates) are rising solution PH slowly but shurely. So now I use it instead of 'Ph UP'.

Greetings my dear Jungletamers, So a major surprise came when @MarsHydroLED contacted us and asked if would like to try out their new SP 3000 light. Being a fan of Mars Hydro for years, we of course accepted their offer. We are totally in love with this light. I was when I saw it in another grower's setup and was in awe of its output and results. So with much pride and thankfulness for the presents the Universe bestowed on us, in the form of MarsHydroLEDS offer and the bountiful harvest of the last grow, (which I am thoroughly enjoying btw, such a great weed to have grown ourselves) we start out on a new adventure that we can't wait to share with you. With many lessons learned from the previous grow, a mighty producing strain in the form of Expert Seeds Gorilla Glue #4, a.k.a Expert Gorilla's and a tweaked super soil mixture, we are setting out to hopefully get over a gram per watt, preferably 1.5. The Setup A 4.5 (140 cm) x 2(70) x 6.2 (200) grow tent, giving me a .98 m2 workspace. This space is customized to my needs. A standing fan will provide airflow through the whole grow, a top fan will help guide cooler air past my lights onto the grow. 3 56 ltr pots will be the home for the plants when they are 2 weeks old, up to then in smaller jars. The Light The leading role and star of the show will be played by the Mars Hydro SP-3000, so kindly provided by MarsHydroLED, which we will test and review here and I might say, endorse. I'm very careful with who I endorse and support these days, but a company with that many wins in design, I'm talking ever since their first range came out in 2009 these guys have been raising the bar for the whole industry, I did not hesitate to support this leading brand. If you want to compete with these guys, you better bring some quality AND affordable pricing. Why do I endorse the SP-3000 without ANY hesitation? It is seriously THE BEST light on the market in this price range and size group. It has an enormously effective output in U/Mol and with 30% less energy waste comparing to older LED lights. Prove me wrong! And with a company holding a considerable market share selling thousands of units every month, competing on price and quality, one would think that customer service would suffer. Of course, also Mars Hydro is not perfect, but check the sheer amount of people that not only praise the light but also the service received, should the light somehow not perform up to par. It is this dedication to their customer base that made this company have a fanbase... Yes, a fanbase with a website and a wiki. So if you are looking to buy new lights, check out the END OF SUMMER OFFER at the Mars-Hydro Global Store on Aliexpress: https://marshydroled.aliexpress.com/ 👈 Check their offers but also their score, they ship from a warehouse near you so you don't have the extra import fees!! Cut out the middleman and have a deal on these lights!! At the moment I write this in August 2021, the lights are 408,20 euro when sent from Germany to the rest of Europe, that's 40 euro cheaper than the other Mars outlets, BUT EVEN 60 euros cheaper than ordering at a grow store!! The Strain: Experts Seeds - Expert Gorilla feminized regular. Don’t let the name fool you because Expert Gorilla is suitable for growers of any skill level. However, you do need to be an experienced smoker because Expert Gorilla is one of the most potent strains on the market. Lineage: Chem Sis x Chocolate Diesel x Sour Dubb Popularity: Extremely Popular Flavor/Aroma Profile: Chocolate, Earthy, Fuel Yield: 400 g/m2 Stress Tolerance: High resistance to disease Potency: 24% THC Flowering time: 58 - 63 days The Soil: Those who saw my Monstercropped Gelato #33 grow (you should see it if you didn't, I'm so proud of that grow), know about my super soil and organic nutrients/ permaculture tea combo that starred in my previous diary. Because of the great results, we are going to use the same recipe, adjusted some more with some new ingredients that will complete the mix and give an even more sustained super soil buffer. 20% Atami Bi-grow (very similar to ocean forest) 20% Atami worm castings 20% Atami Coco Coir 10% Hydrocorn 10% Peat powder 1 cup Fossil seaweed chalk 1 cup bonemeal 1 cup bloodmeal 1 cup Microlife 3-4 teaspoons of epsom salt 3 cups of activated biochar (activated with our own permaculture tea) I just made layers, starting with hydro corn on the bottom to aid airflow/run-off. On this I started layering the coco coir, Bi-grow, peat, castings, and amendments in a way that the more mature the plants get, the more phosphorous and less nitrogen they will find. Every time I made three layers, I would mix them by hand. This way we simulate natural soil, which consists of humic layers, composting plant waste, fungal and microbial life, and nutrients from fossilized sources. The Nutrients I will start with just adding 6.4 PH water, although this soil should buffer ph itself and regulate, after 4 weeks, I'll slowly be adding: - Biobizz Grow - Plagron Alga Grow - Biobizz CalMag - Biobizz Flower - Plagron Alga Flower - Biobizz Topmax - Melasses The Tea Some of you might remember the permaculture tea from my previous grow, I have a short video in my harvest page showing how we make it), it will star again in this grow. - (Rain)water - Comfrey (whole plants) - Dandelion leaves - Roots and leaves from the earlier grow - Minor periwinkle (Finca minor) is a plant we have in our garden, it contains an alkaloid that is associated with increased brain function but also is a light toxin for wee beasties and other unwanted guests like gnats (who hate it). - When flowering I add some wood ash to this mix Thank you for checking in on one of my grows again! Thanks for all the love on my previous grow, check it out if you haven't seen it!! Hug Bud

I feel like this is week 7 of flowering not week 6 I think I may of missed a week at the beginning of flowering. I have been feeding her a 25l mixture of feed a week. 3.3 ltr a day. It has been taking this really well, been doing for 2 weeks now. Going to start my flush on 20/10 and also planing to drill her on the same day. Will take photos. She is really starting to fatten up now, can see them buds get bigger and bigger everyday!!! Still keeping the feeds up trying to get as much as I can in her!!!! Still keep the comments coming in!!!! Is she amazing or what!? Start the flush when!? When to harvested her!? Would love to know what everyone thinks!!!
