Week 2: The Growth Phase Begins The germination phase is officially behind us, and itโ€™s time to kick off the vegetative growth phase. Iโ€™ve uploaded a video that showcases the entire start of this grow diary, from germination to where we are now. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ“น Be sure to check it out for a full recap! This week marks a critical step in the journey: Pheno Selection. Iโ€™ll carefully evaluate the three seedlings and choose the one that will move forward in this competition. So far, the plants are neck and neck, but slight differences are starting to emerge. By the end of the week, the strongest contender will take center stage. In addition to the video, Iโ€™ll be sharing photos of the seedlings as they settle into their new phase of life. Stay tuned for updates on their progress and my final decision. dein-onlineheadshop.de/ Use my referral code 420Shop at checkout to get a discount on your purchase.

Been another smooth week. A few of the plants are starting to show signs that they are moving towards to finish line. Seeing some swelling, pistils starting to brown, and some beautiful purples coming out in some of the buds. Been debating on giving them a dose of dry koolbloom, but I will probably just keep them running on the maxibloom until flush since they look pretty happy. Thos candy cane is popping up a lot of deep purple tones but I'm not really liking the lack of swelling in the calyxes at this point. She has a nice sweet candy aroma, but I am thinking she will be the loser of this grow when judging bag appeal alone. Hoping she puffs up over the next week or so.

The"cream" de la Caramel Auto is one funny and delicious strain i am so happy also with these one is another gol in faster strains I just can say sweetseeds are for the most quickly seeds compare day to day with 3 other's. I just see the picture and videos and is. Really a good seedbank .we are Also using a co2enhancer bottle for TnB naturals and the megacrop one time every two weeks and the biobizz also every two weeks separate like these they get every week feeding

Absolutely LOVE this strain. She has only been curing for a little over a week but I had to try her. She is one of the 3 most potent strains I have ever consumed, tastes like grapes on the inhale, and then on the exhale it tastes like a classic chemdawg, piney and gassey. You will feel the effects by the time you finish exhaling. I lover her so much I am going to run her back after I take a little break to travel. The only thing I regret with this grow is that I used much too small of a final container. No fault of the genetics, it was all me. I will run her back in a 12.5 gallon container and see what happens. My goal is to run 2 photoperieods every year, and get a Kilogram off each plant. Might be somewhat ambitious but I enjoy challenging myself and improving. I cannot wait to squeeze this lady, but I want to give her a few more weeks in the jars first. I will post some videos down the line. If anyone wants a quick pound or two of some potent ass indica leaning flower, this is your girl. I honestly don't know how I could even bring myself to grow another autoflower after smoking this lady.....She blows every auto I ever grew out of the water.

420 Fastbuds Week10 Gorilla Punch Auto These beauties are about as done as I think they're going to get. Definitely will be chopping them in the upcoming week. They smell super strong so can't wait to see how they'll finish and dry. Being sticky would be an understatement for sure. Both did get a little crispy on a few of the leafs but I think thats do to lowering the lights in the tent. All in all Happy Growing.

-mom- So I had a tiny problem with my plant (the mom). pests. this is the problem I have with soil. tiny little cuntz. I don't know their name. tbh not interested. I've had them before. they suck the sap from leaves leaving tiny lighter spots (check vid if interested) so I gave an aggressive foliar spray. then I watched a movie, smoked some bowls and fell asleep before washing residue. the lights came on and before I was even awake the light was burning spots on my leaves. I was kinda bummed out. it's not serious, I know she will recover so I wasn't too worried but one never likes to see plants with problems. to me personally the eyesore physically hurts. plus this could have been avoided so it annoys even more. the good news is no more pests. I can't see them and the new leaves don't have the tell tale sign these suckers leave. all good today I went to water her and first pistils. I was kinda expecting that to happen since days are getting shorter (13.5 hours of wich only about 3 are DIRECT sunlight) but I was also hoping she would hold off for another week at least since I still don't have real estate for her under the lights. I'mma hold off 4 or 5 days and put her and her clones under the light so they can flower out in style. nature calls one must oblige. Besides I don't like when plants flower and reveg and reflower. all kinds of weirdness happens, messes up their structure. -clones- I cut 2 clones and stuck 'em in same 3" rockwool cube. I had never done so but I only had room for the one pot. I did so because I only had 4 weeks to veg something out to replace the ak47 that flowered and I dripped off in the woods (didn't abandoned her, I still go and cater to her needs every 3 days) so I needed a plant fast and thought two plants in one pot would dramatically save veg time and I might just make it) my idea was to simulate a mainline but each clone would be half of a traditional mainline shooting 4 tops each. unfortunately one of the clones rooted much quicker and it screwed up the simmetry I was after. Now I'm thinking maybe one side will have 6 tops and the other 4. I'm pushing it a bit hopefully I won't regret this decision since I'm very limited in the grow space I have. one has to be resourceful in dealing with such problem. Apart from that clones are doing great. vigorous growth and just beautiful foliage. in 2 or 3 days I'll step them up into a new home. a 20 liter fabric pot. can't wait to see her flowers and experience the aroma she has to offer. I'm really looking forward to growing this strain. LETS GROWWWW !!! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿš’๐Ÿ‘Š

I have added some bat guano for extra phosphorus during late flowering, as well as Ecothrive life cycle, to deter pests and replenish the microbial life. I also mixed in some diatomaceous earth mixed into the top dress. I have opened the two tent doors, as the humidity is at 72%. Minimum humidity with tent open is 64%. Also my tall oscillating fan can get through to the plants more effectively. FBP1 and FBP3 are well behind FBP2. I estimate they have another 3 weeks or so. While FBP2 may be ready in approximately 10+ days. I have noticed some possible Nitrogen deficiency in FBP1 and FBP3, so I will be adding extra in this coming week. The Bat guano does not contain Nitrogen. I've continued to defoliate lightly, to expose covered bud sites that are shaded by larger fan leaves. Additionally I move the plants around to adjust light exposure accordingly. The plants are drinking heavily, and I'm not letting them dry out, to preserve the microbial life. They never have run off either. Happy with the progress especially of FBP2. Thanks for reading my diary ๐Ÿ˜Š

Week 2 going strooong ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ Started some LST on it, watering with water and root booster 2-2 ๐Ÿ’ง You can see how the damaged two leaves are developing, but looks like it didnโ€™t affect the growing. Hoping for good results ๐Ÿ’š Day 13, watering her once in two days (250ml) 2 times with plain water and 2 times with molasses water+root/growth booster and there is dry organic fertiliser in the soil (NPK 8-5-1) ๐ŸŒฑ growing good, took her further away from light (now 50cm) hoping for some stretch ๐Ÿ˜‰ Day 14, finally got the bio-bizz nutrients, starting to add those, transplanted to bigger textile pot, gave her water + bio grow today ๐ŸŒฑ

Critical purple #1 is all that remains in this grow. Prob another week. Today she is 85 days old and in week 7 of flower. Here's her schedule 4 the week... 11/21/21 Watered critical purple #1 1ml ph down Ph 6.38 180 Ppm Solution temp 72.4ยฐf 11/25/21 Watered critical purple #1 1ml ph down Ph 6.39 182 Ppm Solution temp 73.6ยฐf So for some reason I put two plants for each strain but tits only letting me log one so I will be adding up and doing both plants in a lump sum so my harvest weights will change. Till next week. Best of luck and Happy Growing!๐Ÿ˜Ž๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช

Obama runtz x gas tax they both are a little taller than all the seedlings as I'm smoking some.of the flower from last grow I'm seeing the more wild plants like this plants mother sister they smoke great but these 2 seedlings have a look to their leaves like some of the wild from the face off og from the gas tax Last grow I overwatered and had to toss them because growth got stunted and a bunch if fungus knats got to the soil. This time I'm trying promix potting soil wish I had tried promix hp but the store close by isn't a hudro store and that's what they had. So this time I'm being very cautious with the watering I'm only useing a spray bottle I'm currently giving 45 spray per solo cup every few days when it dries out. This promix soil seems to hold water decent so the 45 spray there is 0 water coming out the bottom the cup yet. Here soon I think I'm going to double the amount of spray to 90 and start letting the soil get dry dry before watering again. Probably will hold off on any nutes quite yet. I'm going from 24/0 to 20/4 light schedule this week. There getting to the point they won't strech as much is 4 hrs of darkness and I'm rasing the light intensity a little it's been around 150 I'm upping it to around 175. Most likely by the end of the week I'll probably be pushing 200 or close. Hopefully I can get them into the big tent soon At this stage I like to alternate having the fan blowing on them I feel it gives them time to recover and get stronger instead of wind stress. Also every few days I will turn the plants so they are facing away from the light making them grow back towards the light I fell it makes them stronger

Chopped on day 98 Produced 27.3 grams (0.98 ounces) of very compact and moderately dense nugs. Very frosty and very pungent. Very simple trimming with the bud structure compared to other strains. It reminds me a bit of their Opium strain (obviously this is their black opium strain so I'm sure it shares a parent), as well as their rapier strain. I've smoked all 3 and they all have a similar scent and taste. I do enjoy it. I've only tested one nug, and will of course update the review once they have cured for about 50 or so days.
