(Aug22nd added video for plant #1 and photos with and without blackout to show some other stuff and size a bit) Aug 21st, Sunsets are both moving great. Need photos of plant #1 but #2 is closer to finishing then the first. Chunky buds on the shorter one hope the first fills out as well. Smells amazing, really sweet so far , candy like almost a "pez" of sort kinda candy I'm getting. But will update alil more once I get the other plant pics up. Looking great so far !!

This week has been going well, a bit cold in the dark hours! But these girls have been starting to flower nicely and im super excited! Its taken me some time to get the watering down with the living soil but im making it work! Ayeee much love, excited for this northern lights ✨️ happy growing

Día 59 (29/07) Este cultivo no es muy entretenido con solo agua, asi que... Le hago supercropping a todas! 😁 A ver como reaccionan! Día 60 (30/07) Las plantas se están recuperando muy bien del supercropping! 😁 Todos las puntas hacia arriba! 💥 Come onnnnnnn! A por esa floración en 2-3 semanas! Riego 500 ml H2O pH 6,75 Día 61 (31/07) Las plantas se han recuperado genial del supercropping y están lanzando TODAS las ramas hacia arriba 😍 Un espectaculo la fuerza de estas plantas! 💥 Redistribuyo las plantas, para ver si OnionOG está más protegida del sol, ya que consume muchisima agua y voy a estar en unos días fuera... También reubico ligeramente la malla de sombreado, debido a que en mi latitud el sol empieza a incidir lateralmente por las tardes... Riego 500 ml H2O pH 6,55 Día 62 (01/08) Vuelvo a redistribuir las plantas en el invernadero dejando a OnionOG todavía más protegida del sol directo, para tratar de disminuir su consumo de agua estos días que no voy a estar... Pongo una protección "visual" en el invernadero en el lado que da a los vecinos (cara norte), porque he "cazado" miradas indiscretas... Riego 500 ml H2O pH 6,55 Día 63 (02/08) Debido a que me voy de vacaciones unos días, adelanto el riego semanal con Té y la aplicación foliar de Kelp Riego con 1 Litro de Té Vegetativo de Lurpe Solutions. Preparación: 24 horas con bomba de aire (oxigenación) con ingredientes: Green Sunrise 8 ml/L + Insect Frass 16 ml/L + Hummus Lombriz 8 ml/L + Melaza 1 ml/L + Kelp Hidrolizado 0,25 g/L Aplicación foliar Kelp hidrolizado de Lurpe Solutions a 0,25 ml/l Día 64 (03/08) Cerrado por vacaciones Día 65 (04/08) Mi amigo viene a casa a hacer un riego con 1 Litro de H2O pH 6,5 💦Nutrients by Lurpe Solutions - www.lurpenaturalsolutions.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

Love her will grow

Week 2 day 1 plant is just happy but I would love to see some faster vegging. Day 2 Fan adjustment today, felt like the plant was getting little windburn ( slight curling on the edge and dry/rough leaves) Day 3 Added Horn- Bonemeal mix as Top dress today. It’s really fine grained so I hope this is going to help out with N + P in flower stage Day 4 Plant still not ramping up. My guess is the roots are not developed well enough to get to the edge of the pot where the majority of the pre fertilized soil is at Day 5 Drained the whole pot with 1l rainwater and tested run off water. It’s at 6.3ph. Hopefully the plant can reach all the nutrients now. I will add compost tea in about 3weeks. I need to wait for the compost to finish first at least partly. Next grow will be better for sure when I’m more prepared. Day 7 LST

Almost there 🍀

Progresan adecuadamente,,,😃

Very great strain

Damn, this is taking forever! 😅 I do have seen some new beginning of branches coming up in just a half a day., she's gonna go nuts, I just feel it....

April 23 Fading leaves and turning purple. I'm making sure to do my due diligence in removing all dead leaves between the buds as they die, so that I'm not having dead leaves stuck in the bud as it dries. Trichomes aren't quite where I want them yet. The ones nearest the light are orange, but not much orange is anywhere else.

🌱 Lemon Cherry Gelato — Week 9 From Seed (Week 5 Flower) We move forward with our Lemon Cherry Gelato, now entering what we call Week 5 of flower (Week 9 from seed, 12/12 from start). This week brings something special — not one, but two expressions of the same genetic, grown side by side, each telling a slightly different story. The first Lemon Cherry Gelato remains untouched. No defoliation. Just observation, light guidance, and studio time. She stands full, natural, and honestly… stunning. The second Lemon Cherry Gelato took a different path — what started as a light clean-up turned into something closer to an “army-style haircut.” A full defoliation to open space, improve airflow, and allow light to penetrate deeper into the canopy. Two plants. Same genetics. Two approaches. Same goal — let them express. --- ### 🌿 How We Got Here This is a 12/12 from seed run, meaning these autoflower plants never experienced a traditional vegetative phase. From the start, they grew with the signal that time is limited — and that shows in their structure. Instead of wide, heavily branched vegetative growth, they focused early on vertical development and flower initiation. Now, in Week 5, we see the result: dense bud sites forming across a compact but highly productive structure. --- ### ✂️ Why We Defoliate (And Why We Didn’t — Yet) The room is getting full. Really full. The decision to defoliate the second plant came from necessity: • Improve airflow • Reduce humidity pockets • Increase light penetration • Redirect energy toward flower sites On the first plant, we chose patience. Sometimes doing nothing is also a decision. Next week, she may follow the same path — but for now, she shows us what happens when we simply let her be. --- ### 🌸 About Those White Hairs (Pistils) What you’re seeing across all those bud shots — those bright white hairs — are pistils. They are part of the female reproductive system of the plant. Their natural purpose is to catch pollen. But in our case, there is no pollination. So what happens? The plant continues producing more and more pistils, trying to fulfill that biological mission. At the same time, it increases resin production as a protective mechanism. This is exactly what we want. More pistils → more potential bud sites → more resin → better final expression. --- ### Feeding Strategy (Why This Mix Works) We keep the nutrition consistent and intentional: • Terra Bloom → Base nutrients for flowering • Green Sensation → PK booster + metabolic support • Power Buds → Encourages flower initiation and structure • Sugar Royal → Supports terpene and sugar production • Pure Zym → Enzyme activity, root zone health • CalMag → Stability under LED conditions Nothing excessive. Nothing random. Just a balanced system supporting what the plant is already trying to do. --- ### 🌡️ Environment & Plant Feedback Room conditions: • Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: ~65% • CO₂: ~1000 ppm On paper, some might question these numbers. But we don’t grow on paper — we grow by reading the plant. We follow leaf behavior, transpiration, and overall response (leaf VPD in practice, not just charts). The plants are drinking ~1.5L per day, standing around 1.2m tall, and showing strong metabolic activity. That tells us everything we need to know. --- ### 🍃 Small Imperfections We noticed minor leaf burn from under-canopy LED exposure. Nothing serious — and most of it was naturally removed during defoliation on the second plant. A reminder: Not everything needs correction. Some things just need understanding. --- ### 🎭 Meet Mr. Baggy This week also marks the official arrival of Mr. Baggy. You may have seen him around already… but now he joins the journey properly. Part observer, part assistant, part silent chaos. Welcome to the crew. --- ### 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • Continued bud stacking • Increased density and structure • Possible defoliation of the first plant • Early signs of terpene development becoming more noticeable We are entering the phase where everything starts to connect. --- ### 🤝 Gratitude To everyone who passes by — The long-time supporters, the new ones, the curious minds, the silent observers. To the platform. To the partners. To those who love it and those who question it. All of you are part of this.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

-Eine recht schnelle und kompakte Sorte -Hat spaß gemacht -Ich werde definitiv auch andere Sorten von 42Fast Buds ausprobieren

put some shots together before harvest 👽🌑

Flowers week 3 good teknik and low stress good harvest

Esa familia, a que pintan fenómeno estas skunks?. Es que Zambeza hizo un gran trabajo con esta variedad, es una cepa que es bastante rápida en floración, crece muy bien en su etapa de crecimiento, y sobretodo es aparte de típica, muy sencilla de cultivar. De mis favoritas hasta ahora para indoor, como siempre, controlamos el ph y la humedad (siempre dentro de los parámetros correctos establecidos). La semana que viene nos vemos con más avances , un saludo.
