It was easy to harvest she was very small jut cut it quickly without stalks the wet weight is 17 g of the buds, nicely coated with THC and it was approx 70% milky and 40% amber trichomes. Hopefully good time to be harvested. This site has changed can not update and edit the comment section. The smoke is nice it is kind of relax and strong high. Not the best but not bad at all. I like it.

hey guys, Into week12 and plants are recovering nicely from the fungus gnat issue from week 10-11. Its time to add another round of organic amendments, this time in a 70/30 ratio 9f 284 to 444. Increasing the P since we are now clearly into flpwer and the ladies will love it! I also found that the amendments needs a few waterings before it really gets in to the system. Have to plan ahead for that to ensure your plants are not starving for npk. Added d.e. again and another pack of yellow fly traps up. As for watering, each plant gets 9L ea every 2-4 days since temps are going crazy jn the gta. Few days at 35+ deg c to 14 lows. As always, have a good one and see you on the next update!

Nach dem erfolgreichen Topping in der Vorwoche hat die GMO Rootbeer ohne Pause weitergemacht. Da keinerlei Stressanzeichen sichtbar waren, wurde das LST direkt fortgesetzt. Die jungen Spitzen und Seitentriebe ließen sich problemlos weiter in Position bringen, sodass die Pflanze zunehmend eine breite, offene Form annimmt – perfekt für gleichmäßige Lichtverteilung und kräftigen späteren Blütenansatz. Parallel dazu gab es regelmäßige, sanfte Entlaubung. Nur große Fächerblätter, die Licht blockierten oder das LST behinderten, wurden entfernt. Die Pflanze hat auf diese Maßnahmen durchgehend positiv reagiert: keine Hänger, keine hellen Blätter, kein Wachstumsstillstand. Im Gegenteil – sie wirkt extrem vital, treibt schnell nach und zeigt eine kompakte, kräftige Struktur. Ein wichtiger Fokus dieser Woche lag auf der Umgebung: stabile Temperaturen, kontrollierte Luftfeuchtigkeit und keine extremen Schwankungen. Auch die Lichtstärke wurde eng überwacht, um jeglichen Stress oder Bleaching zu vermeiden. Die GMO Rootbeer scheint die Bedingungen optimal aufzunehmen; die Blätter stehen zu jeder Tageszeit sauber nach oben und zeigen dieses typische „Happy-Plant“-Bild. Die Gesamtstruktur ist jetzt breit, flach und sehr gleichmäßig. Genau das, was man vor dem Übergang in die Stretch-Phase erreichen möchte. Sie baut derzeit eine perfekte Grundlage für mehrere gleich starke Tops auf. Woche 5 war insgesamt sehr clean, sehr kontrolliert und extrem effizient – alle Trainingsschritte sitzen, und die Pflanze macht voll mit.

Everything so far so good Blue cheese on the left Sweet zz on the right, RQS recommend with the blue cheese to LST during week 3 so decided I’d just do it on the sweet ZZ aswell. Never trained a plant before think it went well tho.

As this method of putting the seeds directly in soil worked very well last time I repeated it, 9/9 germinated. I put them in egg trays to keep them all covered in the same film. By the 5th day at midday they have sprouted and in the night I checked under the trays and some roots where passing to the soil under so I separated them and put every seed with it's part of the tray in their definitive pots (the cardboard then dissolves into the soil) I used Plant Revolution's Great White powder first a bit sprinkled in the seeds and then into the holes in the pots One seed had helmet head and kept me worried, it took several days to open (attached video) first I managed to remove the shell but the membrane was still covering it, I kept it under a plastic cover and misting it regularly to soften it until it started to rip, the last day I removed it and the cotyledons promptly opened.

This one is going to be weirdly exciting like all grows… but nothing beats growing strain you know nothing about down to to it’s ID. This is why this diary is dubbed Unknown Strain, and a lot more journals will be dubbed unknown strain. eg. Unknown Strain #1 - these strains are seeds I’ve collected and forgot to catalogue Unknown Strain (dealer/grow name #1) - I have it this way,to indicate where or from whom did I get the seed, but failed to get the accurate information regarding the strain. Alike this particular diary. I received seeds from my friend saplug16.20_exotic_genetics. Check out his work on instagram, his my mentor in growing. But I go overboard when it comes to growing. Ever since I’ve seen YouTube videos of growers growing weed plants like bonsais, I started growing my plants like I am growing actual bonsais, LST them in shapes and size while using defoliation and topping to achieve aesthetics. This type of growing is not focused on yield more for the hobbyist who grows for themselves and close friends. But I want to see if I can get more yield with this type of growing bud.

Weekly update on these wonderful girls. They've progressed beautifully, especially considering the day time temps have been in the mid 90's. Not seeing any signs of deficiencies and spraying once a week of either Athena's IPM and stack or PureCrop1 for pest management. So far since being transplanted they've only been fed well water. I'll probably start some Grow A & B nutes and calmag this week. All in all Happy Growing

Hey hey, had to drop the purple pheno… she’s a herm and if I want seeds, I want to do it with stable genetics. Second one still running but it isn’t purpl

What a week! This plant has been THIRSTY! She has been drinking about a gallon a day, demanding nearly daily refilling of the base reservoir. We have continued the trend of increasing nutes with each watering, now reaching 15 mL/gal of both Athena Blended Base A and Base B. I will continue to increase nutrients as long as the small yellow tips do not expand any further. We have also since moved the plant to a new 4x4 tent for flowering. This was necessary, as the height of this plant (now surpassing 50 inches tall!), which we elected not to top, was reaching too close to the light, causing concerns for light burn and other issues. However, this does come with risks: a new tent is a new environment and there are concerns that the plant may not be able to handle it. The best way to avoid this is to run your new tent empty for a while to get an idea of the environmental conditions, to ensure you’re not taking a plant from let’s say VPD of 1.1 conditions to 2.5 (which may feel excessively dramatic, but is not entirely unheard of). Ensuring the environment is as similar as possible is essentially to reducing unnecessary stress of the plant. This new tent also addresses a minor issue of the smaller 2x4 tent: humidity. These thirsty plants are transpiring a lot, giving off so much humidity that the lower half of the tent was staying too humid for ideal conditions. Mold prevention is essential throughout flower (though, admittedly is more important in mid to late flower). Flower development continues, with pistils growing across the plant. Trichomes are visible across sugar leaves and the plant has already started producing a noticeable weed smell. No particularly clear notes, yet. But this is great to see continued development. In order to increase airflow and light reaching lower nodes, we committed to a moderate defoliation of the plant. This is the only real stress we have placed this plant under, but she has bounced back immediately and is showing no signs of slowing down.

Hey guys everything is going great with these ladies all 6 germinated and popped up in 3 days after planting 1 of the six shooters is a lot smaller than its sisters so I've order LEMON PIE from FASTBUDS should be here tomorrow to take its place and I'm going to move the six shooter outside so if you would like to see its journey comment and like bellow ⤵️ The only thing I wish I did differently would of been starting these girls under a cfl or a cheap led to stop stretching but lesson learned if anyone has any question's please comment and thank-you all for your support ✌️

I've already smoked some of this sweet one😘

Fast Buds White Widow is a strain that is easy to grow she can handle some stress if you have issues. She makes a massive bud on the main stem mine was 80 grams freshly trimmed!! She doesn't stretch much if your growing in a confined space. I'll repost what the total is dried and cured and smoke report as well. Smoke Report Update she's Earthy, Piney, with sweat citrus flavors, smooth pull, earthy, piney up front then then that sweat citrus when you exhale, really clean and smooth enjoyably smoke hits you quickly and then mellows out she has the ability to change your motivation level but not put you on the couch the rest of the day or night for the most part!!! 70% Indica 30% sativa. The total weight of the grow of 535 grams wet weight, when dried out to it was a total of 178 grams dry. That's a loss of 67% of the weight. She's a plant with thricomes that cover the fat, stinky, and sticky buds. I didn't have any problems with her. She can take some nuts for a autoflower as she never showed any signs of nutrition stress. Easy grow, strong plant, dense sticky buds, she smells sweat with a earthy note. I would recommend to any grower new grower you really can't mess her up, advanced grower she will give you a great harvest. Continue to grow your own medicine if you can or grow for someone you know that can't continue to make a difference in lives!!! Growdiaries is a great place to learn and connect with other like minded individuals!! Stay growing my friends!!! Thank you for looking at the diary!!!

Week 16 Flower: Embracing the Flush & Celebrating the Shine 🌟 It’s week 16 of flower, and a pivotal moment in the grow journey!

Nothing to do this week, only flush. Im waiting on the end. Buds are really hard like stone.

When you don't get what you want you get experience, This was a lack luster grow in that I was really expecting a huge yield with the scrog. but the facts are, it was my first time with this strain and sativa dominate as well, the light died the over feeding in late flower and not letting the plant tell me when it was done and in my opinion chopping to early made the perfect storm 3 LBS. wet they dried for 10 days at 70F and 50% RF and all that water weight went with it, SI#1 1lbs 4 oz wet SI#1 56gm buds 50gm larffy trim SI#2 1lbs 2 oz wet SI#2 26gm buds 41gm larffy trim SI#3 1lbs 3oz wet SI#3 20gm buds 42gm larffy trim TOTAL 3 lbs 9oz wet TOTAL 102 gm buds 133gm larffy buds

Today is Day 50 !! We have started flower an they are just looking amazing! We have switched up the nutrients for flower, instead of 1 tsp bloom and 3 tsp of veg , we just swap 3 tsp of bloom and 1 tsp of veg !! Can’t wait to see what these laddies do this week!!

These were in dark tent with ac and 3- 6 inch fans and exhaust going. I thing the ac is making the humidity rise as its at 60% rh and im shooting for 65 degrees F TEMP. FOR A 10-12 DAY DRY. sTILL HAVE TO ACTUALLY CHECK THE BUDS FOR DRYNESS NOT JUST RELY ON SOMEONE ELSES PROGRAM. i BITCHED ABOUT THIS GROW THE WHOLE WAY AND I GOT 11 OZ WET SO I am axctually thrilled. If i can get this stuff to dry and cure and not end up smelling like hay, i will be thrilled beyond imagination.. so 12 more days or whatever it ends up being but thats goal. I am watching this dry and cure like a hawk!!! WILL UPDATE WITH DRY WEIGHT BEFORE I disapear in a cloud of smoke to be a good sport and a respectible growdiaries member with complete grows. Peace!

Day 35 Flowering: A great week for the ladies this week with their hunger outweighing the living soils capacity.!! I noticed the leaves were starting to fade out a little over the last week or so . I have experience of this from the last 2 crops with the living organic soil. It does seem that even 60L of soil with amendments is not enough to power through the whole cycle when I grow them bigger. This has now meant I can use the amazing MegaCrop again but as a support to the L.O.S . The herd and rootzone will happily work with MC and have no negative affect on the life there. I plan to push them on the feeds to give them a boost for the last couple of weeks growth to come. The FFT#9 and #10 are both pumping power into bud production nownwithbsome beautiful looking colas on the pair of them. FFT#9 Has spread her budstacks out quite well but did need a little supercropping on the side under the sp250 to stop her hitting the light and get her length some full spectrum too. She has a fuel , sweet smell in effect now and stinks my loft space out too. The shape and size of her buds is excellent. Each one is a chunky ,solid and packed stack of tightly squeezed in pistils and she is not stopping yet it seems. A beauty to work with so far. FFT#10 Her week has been bustly with the amount of effort she has packed into her tight hairy bud stacks. She is a wide lady too. Her dark colour is a warning of her potency I hope.... She has some very long , leafy colas compared to the FFT#9 but her trich production will see them put to good use in hash from the trimmed harvest. She smells really strong of sherbet when agitated or hungry so I wonder what her genetics were from amd cannotnwsit to find out all of these FTT mystery strains. not a bad one among them so far and I don't think there will any dissatisfaction from these girls either. Nice Job @fastbuds ....

FASTBUDS GRAPEFRUIT Sativa/Indica Grapefruit Autoflowering 56-63 days in flowering THC: High CBD: Low This a great little strain that really is a surprise.. She filled out lovely and gives the nostrils a tickle(she sets my hay-fever off!).. Nice smooth smoke off her and she taste very sweet&sour for me..she dryed up pretty fast in comparison, but the heating has been on a few times this week n may of had a slight impact on that.. Sure she will taste better as wks go on and will put her aside to cure completely now for few wks.. Great strain that I'll definitely grow again
