Day 50 – Officially Entering Bloom 🌸 We’ve crossed a beautiful milestone—flowering has officially begun! The pre-flowers are stacking up with intent, and the entire structure is shifting focus to its reproductive mission. It’s a joy to witness the transition as the energy starts moving into the upper canopy. This FastBuds CBD strain is showing phenomenal resilience and grace despite the unpredictable UK weather. Over the past few days, the plant faced intense rain and strong wind gusts, which even knocked it off its perch. But just like a warrior, she got back up—no broken limbs, no complaints, just a stronger stem and a deeper green. I’ve now placed the pot inside a larger container to stabilise it and protect against slug patrols during cold, damp nights. A simple hack, but one that offers big peace of mind! This grow is intentionally minimalistic. No tents, no synthetic boosters, no artificial support—just super soil, pH-balanced tap water, natural sun, and trust in the process. Every drop of rain and every beam of sunlight becomes part of the story. It’s an outdoor symphony powered by patience and the pure intent to create top-quality CBD oil—without the psychoactive effects, but with all the healing potential. She’s now standing tall at approximately 70 cm, stretching with elegant confidence and building a promising framework of bud sites. There’s something incredibly humbling about letting nature lead. And with a strain like this from FastBuds.com, it’s a rewarding partnership between growers and genetics. More to come, but for now—we bloom. Day 52 – The Lazy Grow Philosophy Blossoms in the Sun The sun has finally graced us in full, and this lady is soaking it all in with impressive vigour. After days of cool nights and unpredictable weather, we’ve hit a warm spell in the UK, and with sunlight pushing close to 2000 µmol/m²/s, the plant is thriving beautifully. Each bud site is now clearly forming, and the flowering stage is confidently underway. This grow continues to be a tribute to minimalism. No added nutrients, no shelters, no complicated routines—just a solid super soil mix I crafted myself and plain pH-balanced tap water. Even the pot is set inside a bucket simply to prevent slug invasions and wind topples. It’s proof that you don’t need a fancy setup or big budget to get strong results. Let nature do the work. The goal from day one has been a low-effort, low-cost, outdoor grow that relies on the resilience of genetics—and Fast Buds delivered. This is shaping up to be a perfect candidate for home-crafted CBD oil: robust, healthy, and totally psychotropic-free. Let’s see how far we can push this simple strategy. For now, she stands tall and strong—living proof that less really can be more.

Cream Brulee Auto was my pleasure to grow, I definitely will grow this one again! The weed is nearly finished by the time I write this, one of the strains which is gone very fast.. 😍 I didn't have to do any LST nor much defoliation, next time I would feed her a bit more, but that's was pretty much a smooth grow with the Cream Brulee girl! 🍮 She grew all by her own, to be a beautiful queen! 👑 Thank you, Hypno Seeds, this is amazing work!! 🙏 💚 Thank you, GD community! 💚💚💚 It's an honor to grow together with you!! 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

Last time with dwarves I had super long root who where stuck in the paper, idea is to prevent it by simply check more often. Why the paper towel ? Bcse I want to see if seeds are alive. 16h00 : 2 seeds sprouted, I took the decision to transfer them into their futur nest for a long time, 3 of them. They have name now : QuickPink QuickBlue QuickGreen : the seed at the right side is inside Quickblue, Middle : QuickGreen And the for now not sprouted seed is in QuickPink (I love the name, I really hope she will sprouted. ♥️ 😄😁I love smartpots, I can use safety pins on them ♥️ First feed : Calmag (i messed up, only 1 ml per 3 litters, will do better tomorrow) 1ml + Alg-amic 1ml/3L. + Bio-Heaven 1ml/3L.

I checked the E.C. EACH TIME i've added a nutrient into water. 👏 First step : Terra aquatica : 2ml : E.C:0.3 (my tap water EC) then + 3ml : E.C. : 0.3 : not affected EC 👏 step 2) Calmag : I reduced the ammount of Calmag : 0.8 ml : E.C. : 0.4 (perfect shot, i noticed that the calmag don't increase too much the E.C.) 👏 step 3) Acti-Vera 0.8ml ---> E.C. : 0.4 So... THis is exaclty what i aimed to start smoothly before increasing e.c... but you will see .... 👏 step 4) Bio-grow : really litteraly 0.3, no extra drops, really well mesured : E.C. 0.8 : Chock. Added 300ml of water : 0.7, an extra 200ml of water : 0.6. I am ok with that for now (and I forgot the bio-heaven but hey, roots first ;D) 👻👻👻 Why not bying biobizz root booster ??? 👻👻👻 😎👉 Because they are minerals, and not organic, mostly iron, zinc, bronz,... I asked to check T.A. nutrients, organic ! Bingo ! Enzymes ! Humic acid ! All the good stuf... So yeah, I betrayed biobizz... Other problem : T.A. propose less bottles, organic and bio products... Well, I may switch to T.A. nutrients or advenced nutrients, don't know yet but I have a good feeling about T.A., their system are used by NAZA, they are good in hydroponics systems... And I love my coco. 😎👉 Indeed, I am not using products specific for cocos but I know what I will neeed to fight : iron. 😎👉 Spoil alert : won't add any pictures for 2-3 days, making an experiment before starting week 1 veg. (only today's pictures...) They are ALIVE 😎👉 R.H. was around 71 % to 80%, now droped a bit, light is on for hours (you will understand why later....) droped after opening windows for fresh air : Temp 23.2° // 51 %

Well pretty big reveal this week. You get to see all the shit & roots.....and corn. Watering the girl proved to be hard to figure out. I've been watering her everyday because of the root reveal. And all that water goes down the pot. So I was worried I would over water. Well by now you know. I under watered. But I got it all figured out. I'm not ready to reveal the custom saucer I made yet. I'm still trying to grow these over the bowl roots but they were not ready for any of the reveal so now the exposed ones are tiny and the under the soil ones are much bigger. It is what it is. I will remove the soil on the side roots in the next couple of days so I can position them where I want them then repack with soil again.

19/06/2021 - Day 28 - First day of the 5th week. MEMO: I'm using the following "names" for differentiating the two both in comments and pics: 🅰️ - "A" for the one transplanted in the garden soil and that will NOT receive any nutrient; 🅱️ - "B" for the one that will grow in the pot and that will receive nutrients. 👉 Started LST also for "A", 3 good spots for the flowers. She is starting flowering right today. Smaller than "B" but I'm positive. 👉 "B" started flowering basically the 2nd day of 3rd week. Isn't this a little too early? Didn't have time to optimize LST so now I have to remove fan leaves in order let the sun light reach all the flowering spot. Definitely not satisfied with the training. Started right today feeding with "Easy Bloom Booster Tablets" by RQS. Hot and sunny week, zero rain, we good 😁 There is just one problem (is this a problem?): I think ants created a nest under both plants. Do I have to worry? Wish me good luck and let's hope in sunny days (and friendly ants ahah) 🤞☀️ - DD ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────

I had to give her another defoliation it was way too bushy inside the plant and on top. This week i also poured a full bucket trough the coco so old salts are gone and she got fresh nutes all over the roots with 1200ppm Now the weight will come

Bruce Banner #3 Fast is growing great under the Hortibloom Solux 350. She got a air stone change a few days ago. She had a solution change today aimed more for blooming. Her colas are developing a nice frosty resin. I added a tablespoon of blackstrap molasses to the solution as well. 🤞🏻she keeps on trucking along strong. Thank you Hortibloom, and The Original Sensible Seeds Company. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

How To Make and Use Organic Super Soil Seedsman Seeds Peyote Wifi Harvest Well here we are at the conclusion to many months of planning and preparation plus another 23 weeks of Growing. I Did a lot of reading and researching super soils and how they are made before I decided to actually make some . Then I thought to myself I should document the whole process from start to finish in diary form. This way any other growers who are interested can have a basic idea of where to start. and the likely conditions they may face. All of this began way back in August of 2019 when I first mixed the super soil mix (which can be found by looking at week one) aproximately Three months after that I started this grow and 23 weeks later Here we are at the end. Along the way I described the methods I was using to keep the soil fully active and productive at all times. Plus also some of my pre planning tips for flowering time. For example in week four.... I innoculated with the Mycorrhizal kit as instructed on the packaging next week I'll give the soil some help by feeding some seaweed solution mixed with mollasses and worm castings. This will provide a boost for both the plant via the roots and also benefit the millions of tiny microbes that live within the soil. Simply mixing and using the super soil as is will still work fine however by keeping the soil in perfect health as well as the Plant itself will pay dividends come harvest time. Week Six.... It can pay to plan ahead now for when the plant gets bigger and will need support. With this in mind I am going to use a premade wire Tomato type cage that is 1.5m high. This will hopefully provide enough support for the plants frame when it goes into Flower Next year. Planning ahead can sometimes help prevent potential issues from effecting your grow. Some things to think about and plan ahead for are as I mentioned Plant stability and support when it gets bigger. Week nine..... Planning ahead still I decided to dig a big hole aprox 1.5 meters by 80cm and to a depth of about 4 foot . Took a few hours of digging and shovelling but the end result with the plant lowered down into it makes it worth my effort and Back pain that will follow 😏 By doing this I have created a much cooler Root zone by having the pot well below surface level But Ive also knocked 4 feet off the overall plants profile which will aid me in my other concerns being Security. Week thirteen.... Diamotaceous Earth acts as a bug deterrent and can't hurt the plant in any way. I also mix some into the worm tea that I feed straight to the soil as Diatomaceous Earth is a fantastic source of Silica which we all know is extremely beneficial to your Plants Health. As Far as my super soil is concerned , so far I have not needed to feed the plants any fertilisers as the soil is providing everything the plant needs. All ive been adding is biodynamic food for the soil itself to keep everything under the surface happy and well nourished. Once flowering begins next month I will need to add an organic Booster to the soil that will replace any depleted resources. ***** But not everything went smoothly in fact I did the most damage to the plant in Week 17 I decided to be stupid and spray all my girls with potassium bicarbonate thinking it would "mold proof" my plants WRONG all did was burn the absolute shit out of the leaves. From then on it was a constant struggle to get this girl to produce anything because along with the foliar burning I also had to contend with next to no sunshine for many days at a time plus the constant leaf dropping no doubt reduced my potential yield. ****** Not everything was Doom and gloom either in fact by Week twenty one.... The Quality however is definately showing itself, with every single bud covered in visible frosty looking trichomes. The smell is really really Funky with undertones of spices. So even tho I'll probably only get around half of what I was hoping for ,the bud that I do get will be straight up fire. 👌 In the Final week before I chopped .... The Buds although very delicate and light, look very Frosty and Delectable. As for the super soil it is absolutely chock full of nutritional value so I will use it to Grow a fine crop of Broad beans this coming Winter. The growing of Legumes in the soil will actually benefit the soils health in many ways including making the nitrogen within the soil more readily available. **** On the 18th of March 2020 I chopped her down and hung the plant upside down in the greenhouse overnight. Next day I removed all the buds and stripped them off the branches. The buds then went into a hanging drying rack until adequately Dried for the trimming. After the first trim the buds went into paper bags for more drying time (aprox 3-5 days depending on temp rh weather etc) They then got a bit more of a trim and went into the Jars for Curing. I have had quite a few bongs of this already and I must say it is Really good hey!! So in Conclusion I hope that this Diary may help somebody who may be interested in growing organically with soil outdoors or indoors as well as provide an insight into how the use of all natural ingrediants can produce Good buds. Whilst this particular plant didn't get Big buds the Quality was outstanding and you only need to check out some of the other plants I have growing in the same soil mix as to the validity of of its Fertility. Now we come to the End of this Grow I'd like to thank a few growers who offered advice and/or support along the way @ROM101 @Med_in_Tropic @F4m0u5 @Shooey @MagicMan @Spinnnn Thanks guys I appreciate it Also thankyou you for reading this Diary and please leave a like at the end if you liked it Cheers Grey_Wolf Post harvest notes ; its now the 1st of May and the Broad beans and Peas that I planted in the super soil are doing very nicely this will not only provide me and my family quality organic food for our table but also the growing of legumes helps fix nitrogen to the soil and keeps it living and healthy for the next time I need it for canna 👍💪 Best way to be folks self sustainable and recycling your soil mixes will help reduce our footprint on the planet and save us money too 👍 So what are you waiting for Grab some basic organic ingrediants and make yourself some Organic super soil 👍👌 ##### Final update for this diary 31st May 2020 It's been just over 2 months since I harvested this Peyote Wifi plant and the buds have been curing for that time . Today I chose a bud to test and I am blown away by the perplexity of the high and taste profile , Bloody amazing 👍####### Thats it folks All over now after 3 months of making the soil then another 24 weeks of growing the plant and then another 2 months of curing to get to here 31st May 2020 It was a great fun grow and I hope I have inspired some of you to try making your own batch of Organic super soil 👍

In realtà ho coltivato 2 semi di questa pianta una l'ho raccolta e seccata mentre un altra è ancora in flush e verrà raccolta tra 5-6 giorni. I fenotipi sono quasi identici e predilige un odore di gas e og! L'effetto è devastante molto narcotica e a breve pubblichero qualche foto di qualche estrazione a freddo! Spero che piacciano a qualcuno i miei lavori e che qualcuno di voi si possa ispirare a tutto questo. Ringrazio ogni singola persona che è passata di qui a lasciare il suo like o commento e ricordo a tutti voi che potete trovarmi anche su Instagram 😘

welcome to📅 Day 8 6/14/2021. Things are going just as I would expect for this stage and no gnats as of yet thank god for that🙏 If things go as planed top feedings will stop by the end of the week and I will move on to the reservoir on a 2 week cycle. The Mars Hydro TS 1000 is performing just as I would expect and that's to say flawlessly this little light works its magic best in the veg faze of the grow when growing multiple plants but in flower it will need some help. If I had 2 of them I think I would be fine in my 4x4 tent one for each plant or better yet the TS 2000 for each plant Until Thursday Happy Growing and as always Keep your stick on the ice 🏒 Update 📅Day 11 6/17/2021 she is well on her way and I am very happy with the progress. My Mars Hydro TS 1000 light is preforming just as I would expect and I have turned is up to 75 %
