420 Fastbuds Week 8 Gorilla Zkittlez Auto Happy late Thanksgiving to everyone. This weekly update was a great one. Went away on a camping trip so was a little afraid to what I'd come back to. Came back to a couple beautiful looking girls. They seem like the flower sites have swelled up pretty good and the smell they give off is absolutely out of this world. The flowers are rock hard to the touch and leave your fingers sticky as all get out. All in all Happy Growing

change Mondays Takes about 10 weeks of flower 🌸

Amnesia Skunk — Week 4 Report 1. Week 4 Context (12/12 Cycle) • Same room conditions as the rest of the garden. • Same environmental parameters. • Same nutrition, same measurements, no changes introduced. • Stability across the room remains the guiding principle. This consistency allows true genetic expression to be observed. ⸻ 2. Growth Pattern & Structure Amnesia Skunk is expressing very differently from other cultivars in the room: • Node count: ~6–7 nodes • Internodal spacing: Extremely compact • Overall stature: Short, tight, and powerful • Architecture: • Dense vertical core • Controlled lateral branching • Strong apical presence without excessive stretch This is a stocky, high-density phenotype, showing clear indications of structural strength. ⸻ 3. Main Stem & Vascular Development One of the most striking features this week is the main stem: • Notoriously thick compared to other plants at the same stage • Strong lignification already visible • Suggests: • Excellent nutrient transport capacity • High future flower-support potential • A plant built to carry weight As you beautifully put it — this is the kind of stem that looks like it will harvest as timber. ⸻ 4. Branching Behavior & Phenotypic Consistency • Both phenotypes are: • Very similar in overall structure • Expressing healthy, proportional branching • Producing smaller but well-defined side branches This indicates genetic stability, not randomness. Branching is present without chaos — everything feels intentional in how the plant is stacking itself. ⸻ 5. Training & Plant Handling (Week 4) • No aggressive training introduced • No topping, no hard interventions • Only: • Gentle leaf bending • Minimal leaf redirection • Very careful handling to improve light exposure Philosophy for this cultivar: Let her grow as she wishes, without stress, and observe her natural form. This approach respects her compact nature and avoids disrupting her internal balance. ⸻ 6. Plant Health & Visual Quality • Color: Deep, healthy green • Leaf posture: Relaxed, confident, no stress indicators • Growth rate: Steady and strong rather than fast and stretchy • Overall vitality: Excellent Amnesia Skunk is not racing — she’s building. ⸻ 7. Studio Observations & Documentation Value • Plants were taken to the studio for photography. • Under controlled lighting: • Structure becomes even more apparent • Stem thickness and node density stand out • Branch symmetry and internodal compression are clearly visible Photos captured: • Against the light • On dark backgrounds • Close-ups of stems and branching • Full-plant context shots This makes Week 4 documentation especially valuable for educational reference. ⸻ 8. Pre-Flower Status • No clear pre-flower signs yet. • Development remains firmly in the transitional vegetative phase under 12/12. • This slower, compact progression aligns perfectly with her morphology. Nothing is rushed — and nothing needs to be. ⸻ 9. Outlook Moving Forward • Expect: • Powerful flower support later in bloom • Dense, structured stacking rather than long spears • A cultivar that rewards patience Training will remain soft and respectful, with future adjustments based on how she chooses to open up.

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.

5/10 Got up super early for wife's appointment at 7 came home and transplanted 4 of the purple punches. Transplants went good. Soil was too dry and a couple fell right in the hole but I was messing around showing my dad. It just got dropped in the hole a little harder lol. The other that happened to is fine though. Definitely make sure your soil is moist enough before transplanting. My transplanting technique for 3 gallon is to put soil on bottom. Set cup in at appropriate distance then replace cup with plant with soil filled cup and fill around it. Leaves the perfect hole. Then you just snip the cups twice on each side, peel it down and fold the cup down and cradle the bottom and in the hole it goes! Holes have mykoscand a little like water. I water a little after transplant. I misted soil whole mixing it up. 5/11 Dad left the windows open last night "because the soil smell was bothering Lynda." I couldn't ficking believe it. They were all fine when I got back but still. Everything is transplanted into 3 gallon containers bit that 1 purple punch that is a little bit dwarfed. I looked at the bottom of the cup and drainage wasn't as good. Must've been the last cup and the jail didn't go all the way through in a couple places. I increased the drainage on that little dwarf and I'll transplant it when I get time. We are going to have some good weather coming up. I need to get my cage moved, my bags sanitized and get on a good watering routine. UPDATE: Went back over at four and everything's dry as fuck but the leaves are uo and every one of them looks happy so I'm holding off watering. I'll start with a quart probably tomorrow. Also cleaned out tge cage and secured the handles to move it. Only thing left is cleaning and sanitizing. These girls have a south facing window and they LOVE it. It was 80 today. I hope we have an early season. 5/12 Transplanted the last purple punch today. I could easily tell the problem was drainage. It was the last cup I had stacked when I drove the nail threw so it didn't pierce all the way the the other slips and tac holes apparently weren't enough. Used mykos and same soil mixture. Soil was extremely dry. I lifted a pot with dry soil and these were heavier. Commercial buddy said to start with a quart a pliant and see how it goes but I kind pussed out and only gave them 24fl 0z a plant. Half the quart. I asked if I should water more and he said to just wait and see how they like this water and up it to a quart next time maybe quart and a half. Im just leery of overwatering. When i watered SOME of them the water literally just sat there and took forever to absorb. Plants werent wilting though. Soon theyll be going outside during the day and in mdoors at night. UPDATE: Went back over at two and everything looks AMAZING. Healthiest looking plants I've grown. Leaves all pointed up. I'm taking my commercial dudes advice and hoping the water next watering. For now, they're doing amazing. 5/13 Everything is doing greatcso far. Gotta figure out when to start nutes. Considering adding silica but don't want to raise ph to much. I'll consult with others but my the soil blend I'm using is full of nutes. 5/14 Rushed morning and I wanted to water bit the plants looked great still. Sticking my hands deeper I can feel a little moisture deeper down or in the drain holes so I decided to give the blueberry cheese and the 10th planet a "touch of kindness" which was a small circle of water from a small watering can around the outside edge of whete the rootball should lid be. I'm working on getting a watering g schedule down. UPDATE: Went back over at five and everything was looking good with leaves praying. Maybe my half measure helped. Doubtful but still. Tomorrow I plan to water. Since the soil has tons of nites ill probably hold off a little while longer before starting the nutrient schedule. I want to make sure I've got the watering down first. One thing at a time. 5/15 The 10th planet and Blueberry Cheesecgot their first REAL watering since transplant. Still being cautious I watered 28fl Oz a plant. I phed the water with an indicator solution and ph down. I gave the purple punches a "cup of kindness" which was a circle of water around the transplant hole. Can't waif to get a watering schedule down. I wanted to start nutes but my soil is full of them and i believe it's too early. I didn't see ANY run off from this watering. I think that's good as I'm not looking to wash away the nutes in the expensive soil I use. I need to start HST as well but I'm doing things proper and "one at a time". That way if I run into a problem I'll know what I did and how to rectify it. At least I hope. UPDATE: Went back over at 3 leary that I may have "overwatered" but the plants ALL looked AMAZING and had shot up like an inch! Looking into hst and will probable fim a few. Top a few and leave one to grow naturally. Can't wait to see how these girls do outside. 5/16 Wow. Just wow. Plants are doing phenomenal! Since the watering went really well I watered the purple punch bit I only used about 16fl Oz as the plants were a little smaller than the others. I'll up it to a quart next time like I did with the others. I want to USE the nutes in my soil so im not washing them all away by watering to run off. I topped 2 10th planet's and FIMed one of them. I want to see how the respond then I'll begin training the others. Off to a Great Start! 5/17 Glad I held off watering. It's raining today. Just showers. We haven't gotten any of that extreme wind we usually do. I have the plants supported but I still worry. Definitely more than I should. Plants are still doing good and acclikatimg to their new homes.

Shitty weather wooooooop, too cold and too rainy. they have been sitting inside mostly near the window with the CFL as support. Not ideal but I'd rather have less bud than rotten bud. That being said they are fattening up nicely. Trich show more milk and the occasional amber (only saw 2 to be honest). Lower nodes are still pretty clear and still have lots of white pistils. I am thinking 1 more week of feed then start the 2 weeks of flushing. Having a hard time watering them evenly with all the LST straps. Expecting a tiny watering can one of these days to get that even watering job.

He tenido poco tiempo para cuidarlas como se merecen pero ahí vamos

Ive had a huge harvest from this small plant

Flowering day 56 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone :-). We are now close to the harvest 😍 This strain is really extremely fast 👍. Both phenotypes now remain there for 3 or 4 days before they are put in the darkroom for 48 hours 😁. The trichomes are now 70% milky and 30% amber ☺️. They were watered one last time today with 1.2 l per plant so that they can dry again until the darkroom :-). Before the last update, there will be an interim update of the harvest 👍. Until then, I wish you lots of fun with the update. Stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🍀 You can buy this Strain at : https://sweetseeds.es/de/sweet-skunk-f1-fast-version/ Type: Sweet Skunk F1 Fast Version ☝️🏼 Genetics: Sweet Skunk Auto (SWS34) X Early Skunk 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

This week has been fun still no problems with the grow no deficiencies this has been a easy grow like always for me.i need to do a defoliation on the plants today sometime

🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨🌿🍦🍨 This girl put out some real amazing hues towards the end. Has a very pleasant aroma as well. She's on her last week in under light. I'll be harvesting this Beasty beauty next week. Gave Gelato a few good flushes over the last 10-12 days of plain RO, PH 6.5 With her initial flush done with a Flawless Finish soak. 🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨🍦🍨🍨 ** Had some issues uploading her Trichome video. Eventually got it to post. Yay! Because we do 💚 them milky trichome forests. All is done for your appreciation of course. My fellow growmies make it all worthwhile. Eagerly waiting to indulge in this girl's fruity goodness. Good things come to those who wait patiently. 🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼💎🥛🍼 Until Gelato's harvest. Stay frosty 🥂

Acapulco Gold has been forming some promising looking buds 👌 I have had to increase waterings this week as the plant is becoming increasingly thirsty. The branches are very heavy for the plant now, and they're beginning to buckle under the weight, so I might have to stake the plant. Because it's got so big now. I turn the plant round each day to evenly distribute light. It's become difficult due to the bendyness of the plant now, so I have to be very careful now whenever I move it. The plant has done really well this week, actually, and hopefully, we can be done in the next few weeks, which would be great. This has been the fastest and biggest plant I have grown yet. I'm very impressed. I have increased the waterings and am trying to give correct nutrients. However, I am also using Ecothrive dry amendments as always, and because of this, I don't know how many nutrients to add. The plant is so big now, I don't think I am feeding enough. If you have any ideas or suggestions, I'd appreciate it. Leave it in the comments 😁 I am having trouble assessing the nutrient requirements as the plant has always been a light green, but it is really beginning to go yellow. Here is what I did this week. 12.9.25 I top dressed the plant with Ecothrive dry amendments. The following amounts were used for this 8 Gallon pot; 💚1 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle 💚1 TBSP Ecothrive Bloom 💚 2 TBSP Diatomaceous Earth Here is what I did this week. 12.9.25: I watered the top dress in, with 6.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0 with; 💜 2 TSP Sea K 💜 2 TSP Biosys 💜 8ml Trace PH: 6.0 PPM: 597 13.9.25: I watered with 2L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 5.9 with; 💜 .5 TSP Bud Explosion PH: 5.9 PPM: 678 15.9.25: I watered with 6.5L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.1 with; 💜 1 TSP Bud Explosion 💜 1 TSP Sea K 💜 8ml Trace 💜 1 TSP Biosys PH: 6.1 PPM: 685 16.9.25: I watered with 4L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 With; 💜 7ml Trace 💜 2 TSP Sea K PH: 6.4 PPM: 552 The fungus gnats have really increased since I did a watering of the whole tent. I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days. Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm. Thanks very much for checking out my diary this week and for hanging out in the comments. Advice or encouragement is appreciated. It's been a fun week! 😁💚🤞🌱👌🧡

nl 12g sk 27g rc 50g Watermelon weighted in at 54grams after about week of hang dry before jarring but after cleaning. Now been in jars for few weeks, been fully usable, thou not fully dry, harvest it self was might fine vs earlier, and i got so much stuff from this tentful it will last me a year with my current dosing plan (using to alleviate certain symptoms)

This week starts with smelly Blue Cheese Automatic. It’s growing great. Week 9 The Fruit spirit is getting bushier and looks healthy. Week 10 3G is growing slowly but surely. Looks great! Week 6th

Leaves continue to turn yellow and fall off

Sunday, 07-08-2022 Plant looking OK. LST'd stems almost fully over pot edge and nodes on the stems developing well. Plant is still lagging behind The Church - Test Grow #6. All plants currently growing seem smaller when I compare the pics to my previous grows at the same age. Only one feed this this past week as I allowed the pots to dry out from the rain in the previous week. Supplemented feed yesterday with my Beneficial Booster. I made a mistake when preparing and put in double the amount of molasses but the plants seem to be tolerating it so far this morning.

Love this plant super cool colors Great smoke for the daytime Great motivation buzz on to the next one ! Could have had a little bigger yield but isn't that always the case !? Lol can never get enough
