07/17/2020 Just waiting... On flowering

This is just a beautiful strain to grow. The leaves have a rich dark green appearance and the shape is a mix of fatter indica leaves and longer sativa leaves. It's tendency is a fairly manageable and predictable grow/stretch and it responds well to training and powerful lights. The leaves on one of them changed colour at the end of flush and went yellow with some purples and pinks but the buds themselves have almost a silver glow to them. The pistils come out in early flower in a very strong, spikey and symmetrical way that amplifies the cool glow given off by the trichomes. With the rich, dark, beautiful leaves, the whole appearance is really beautiful and otherworldly. One of the Wedding Cake plants self-pollenated and there are some seeds in the CBD Blue Shark, but they're few and far between. It's not a disaster like the Wedding Cake. Honestly I can't say enough good things about this strain. The plants were hardy, easy to work with and forgiving of mistakes and experiments. The flowers looked amazing through every stage of development, and the finished product smells great, tastes great, looks great, and makes you feel great. This is my favourite strain to grow so far.

Im happy to start another growing experience with my new equipments 😍

Wow, she did turn out to be the silverback we aimed for. Look at that frosting. The strange and wonderful growth has made it look like something primeval. She is taken out of the grow room for a couple of days of darkness and tomorrow she will be harvested. Have been giving just freshwater for 1.5 to 2 weeks now. Will keep you posted with results in the coming weeks and the harvest video and photo's tomorrow. Thank you for checking in again! We could not have done this without our trusty SP 3000, check www.mars-hydro for deals on them!

Report on week 3 of veg: I lower the RH to 50-55% while the RM stays relatively on the higher range: 27-29C daytime and 18-22 at night. I had nice visual on the 6th node of BB3, Larry Bird and Gelato plants and few cm. to avoid any eventual stem splitting, so i topped them. I guess the Gorilla will be ready for topping by tomorrow. Unfortunately i have to work with hard water so i have to keep constant eye on the water's EC. For this reason and from personal experience i wont increase the nutrients dosage any time before flowering. The high percentage of worm castings is doing wonders and help me a lot with the substrate's maintance. I did some runoff water measurements and end up with the following values: Gorilla had 2.75EC and 6.5pH, Gelato got 2.70/6.6, Larry 2.85/6.7 and BB 2.20/6.9. Substrate pH is 7.0. Once again, I have to say that Sunmaster's Dual Spectrum HPS are indeed super powerful lamps. I added another clip-fan to ensure a nice breeze around the plants. I will follow the general rule of thumb and give the plants 10-14 days to recover from the HST. Once i week i spray the plants with foliar iron-based nutrient solution👊 (Plagron Vita Race). It boosts the photosynthesis, plus it washes and cleans the leaves. P.s. only the Larry Bird is topped on the pictures. I topped other two today, but i didnt want to switch-off the lights in order to take pictures. Peace!

Everything is going good so far..

Wow. I love cannabis

3-24 Silica 1.5, cal/mag 6, micro 6, flowers 6, frost nugs 3, green sensation 1.5, slf 1.5, drops 1.5 ppm in 710 ph 6.0 Runoff 1375 ph 6.9 She still rockin 🤘 3-27 6ml cal/mag, 1.5 ml slf-100, 1.5ml drops of balance, 1/2 tsp recharge. She will get a full feed, next feed. Gave recharge b/c she only got cal/mag, so why not do some good while washing out salts. Ppm in 325 ph 6.0 Out 995 ph 7.0 See how she do 😁🤘

Heeeey all! Sorry for the extremely slow update! The past few weeks have been crazy for me! 😱 This week I made a lot of defoliation and decided to be somewhat greedy. I'll let the plants grow a bit more so they'll stretch well during flower! So while I defoliate I'll allow the plants to recover properly! 💪 Near the end of the week I also made another mistake with Roko (poor baby! 😭). I broke another of the stems (the one that divided the plant in two, right in the middle) and I feared the worst! But so far the plant kept growing without any problems. I'm still thinking a name for my 4th baby, she has surprised me greatly and I didn't notice how many new branches had grown until I defoliated her and I'm sure she'll deliver some great buds! 😍 Anyway everyone, this is all for now. Thanks for reading this journal and soon I'll update the next week! 😃

Got back from an extensive vacation to find the girls healthy. Thanks son! Let’s go!

Grow diary 11 stage 6 Day 51-60 This last 9 days she has continued to pop out the pistils. She is a little taller then I expected after the earlier topping. I got high hopes for this one. Development wise this one is also where I would expect her to be.

Feliz por como van mis gorilas, todos los días hay cambios y cada semana tengo que aumentar el riego, esta semana utilice en total 18 litros, 4.5 litros para cada planta aproximadamente. En los primeros 6 litros uso: ▪️︎4ml de Connoisseur A y B por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Rhino por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Bud Candy por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Carboload por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de B-52 por litro de agua. Espero 30 minutos y despues aplico otros 6 litros con los siguientes nutrientes: ▪️︎4ml de Connoisseur A y B por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Nirvana por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Big Bud por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Overdrive por litro de agua. ▪️︎2ml de Voodo Juice por litro de agua. No tengo medidor de EC, por lo tanto trato de que las mediciones en ml sean exactos con una jeringa. ☆ 1 día a la semana riego las plantas con 6 litros de agua sin nutrientes y con un PH en 6.0, hasta el momento no han presentado carencias pero tengo la duda si tienen exceso de nitrógeno por el color verde intenso de las hojas.

A note on last weeks goals: - Continuing LST has been very easy with this girl. Following a VPD chart and keeping a good environment has been key to establishing a successful low stress training regiment. In the last week I decided to use stainless steel nuts and bolts as weights. I tie them to the end of the side branches rather than tieing them down to the side of the pot. This makes it easier to water.. I will use this technique again, I really like it. I also pull my plants out of the tent and place them in a tote to water them and inspect them. - I've been playing with my CO2 generators .. adding more yeast, less sugar etc.. the highest CO2 concentration I've been able to achieve is 1050 ppm. With that in mind i will probably purchase a rotometer and a CO2 tank for future runs. Furthermore I think that the yeast and sugar combo could lead to an infestation if in not carefull (bugs are attracted to sugar and yeast). I have noticed my plants are praying for 15 hours a day though and I think the CO2 has been a game changer through vegetation. A note on my environment: I decided to add photos of some of my gear for my garden. This grow I decided to swap my intake and exhaust fan placement. With putting my exhaust on the FLOOR, the air in my tent is drawn from upwards towards the floor. This gives my plants proper contact time with the CO2. It also takes the heat from the top of my tent and pulls it downwards acting as a heat source for my crop... In my pictures you will notice my 4 inch inline fan and my 6 inch inline fan are attached to a secondary room. This helps me draw fresh air while releasing my exhaust away from my tent room. WHEN GOING INTO FLOWER I turn up my intake fan to get cool air to the top of my tent. The exhaust draws it down cooling my tent when the lights are turned up in the last stage of flower. As a new grower this has been the step to changing my entire grow. Everything is much healthier and I owe it all to my environment, and Fastbuds genetics. One more thing: I almost burnt my house down and electrocuted my ass with a cheap water heater... careful while playing with electricity and water 🤣🔥🔥⚡️ Next week's goals: - Turn up lights slowly - Continue to play with CO2 generators to try and achieve 1200+ ppm concentration - Continue training and defoliation - keep up pest management.. these fungus gnats keep trying to regroup and they're starting to hurt my feelings.. I get rid of them in my tent but they keep coming back! The bud sites are stacking nicely, I'm getting excited she starting to remind me of the Fastbuds Forbidden Runtz auto when she went into flower...and that was the best plant I've ever grown 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Happy growing everyone!

Slowed her feed way down this week and next before my flush, I added molasses to my last couple feed. She smells like grape jelly when you touch her, cant wait to get her into a jar...

Here we are in what it will be the final week... I am now at day 61 and I'm considering to cut at the end of this current week... in 2 days basically... I recently bought a scope that allows me to check the trichomes and I can see all milky ones, I also posted some videos of it, please guys let me know your thoughts... Beside this buds are hard like rocks and smell still pretty intense and I cannot wait to taste this short but bulky phenotype. I'll keep you guys posted if I harvest or not this week hoping to read some of your comments. So Stay tuned, stay high! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Little update at Day 63. I decided to give her few more days, so next week will be chopping her, this mostly cause I watered her last time on Day 61 and now I am basically just waiting for the soil to be dry. I count to put her in the dark for 48 hours at Day 65 and finally chop her at day 67, I cannot wait to update you for the harvesting part. I expect to reach 50/60 grams dry and I really hope to achieve that. Keep you guys posted! Stay tuned, stay high!

Purple Punch and Frosty Gelato will be harvested next week. Very hot in the tent and also it is not in my house. Summer time. Hard to look after them this way it can be seen. No problem. Next time. Still love them :) A.lot of burnt leaves removed from them every week because of heat. I can not change now I need to go this way. Starnge: Wedding Cheescake is crazy other plants are suffering because of the environmental issues she is acting like this is the best environment. Leaves hardly burn and she grows as fuck. All of them in the same environment.... Hmm.

She stretchin’ hard and throwin’ out sites 🔥 Got her topped, light defol + lollipopped — airflow’s clean. Might strip a bit more soon if she bulks up. Stackin’ up nice so far… let’s see what she doin’ next 💪🌿

they are taking shape in their flowering but one of them requires urgent nutrients ... tomorrow comprare.biobizz ... although I am finding that I only use organic material ... she needs it .. I hope that my work trips do not affect my babies.... the other pack its height is 160 cm
