This week went well I am continuing to harvest buds as they become ready. The leaves are yellowing more and more letting me know that she is almost complete. I think the lower bids have about one more week until they are ready and that will complete the harvest for Big Girl. Little girl is now declining, she has not branches out or grown new tops.

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 5/17- The FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower is going into Week Eight from seed now and is looking like a champ! I started brewing a batch of Compost Tea today which should be ready in 24-36 hours, after which I'll give the Wedding Cheesecake FF a treat! 5/19- I'm almost certain that slugs are the culprits of all of the leaf chewing that has occurred. I only wish I had figured it out sooner but, on the bright side, this is a photoperiod and she has plenty of time to recover so she'll be just fine. Once I figured out that I was facing a slug attack, I immediately deployed my favorite defense against slugs and other little soft bodied buggers and their larvae... Diatomaceous Earth. This stuff is death to fungus gnat larvae, along with other pest larvae and will ruin a slugs day quickly! If you look at diatomaceous earth under magnification, it resembles shards of glass and acts as the same on the soft bodies of pests either repelling, or killing them! 5/21- The Wedding Cheesecake is putting out a ton of new growth and has maintained her color and vigor. I have been training her branches through the trellis net as they get long enough and will probably be installing a second net before too long! Our weather has dried out and warmed up so I'm watering daily with well water straight from the garden hose. 5/23- Eight weeks of growth for the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower and she just keeps looking better by the day... She's going to be a gorgeous plant! I cannot wait to see her in a month or so... can you? Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

We are officially in full bloom. The have been enjoying 6-7 hours of sun light per day for about 4 days now, then brought back in under the cobs. The girls are all exploding with growth and stacking what I expect to be huge buds.

Week 14 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers This girl has absolutely loved the rain😇 It was very heavy rain too so the pot is easily saturated... honestly don't remember the last time i had to water her😂 was maybe 3/4 weeks ago & don't plan on doing so any time soon either. I tried to defoliate a little because she's getting overly bushy but found to be harder to do than i expected need her to gain some height so i can easily spot what to remove. Even though she looks sad after being sprayed down with water it will benefit her in the long run toughening up her branches from the weight when it comes to flower time. Need to measure her but she's not too far from the 2meters wide mark i was aiming for. No pest issues think the predator spiders are taking care of that for me😎

Diese Woche habe ich sie noch einmal ordentlich entlaubt. Jetzt ist sie ready für die Blüte. Die letzten zwei Tage durfte sie in Ruhe chillen und sich erholen. Ab heute bekommt sie 75 % Lampenleistung. Ich hoffe auf richtig große, schwere, fett stinkende Buds.😅🤣😎

Pow pow and it’s already Week8 Girls are definitely in stretch now getting some training on ScrOG net to fill this tent in full. Somewhere this week they will all go through defoliation process and planning to lower the upper net. EC this week going up to 2.0 Temps around 26C Humidity around 60% Stay tuned with photo updates 🤘 Video update Day6 - defoliation done, second net done, all plants on same level done. Stretching very nice in last few days 😍

Week 11 - Strawberry Gorilla Auto what a beautiful plant. This has to some of the best flower I’ve ever smelled in my life hands down. The smell is exactly like a Strawberry Donut. To be able to mix a strain to make it smell like this is truly mind blowing. My first grow is growing better than ever ! I’m going to let the pot dry another day. Then it will sit in 48hrs of darkness before I karate chop them. Happy growing everyone and good luck !

I made a few big mistakes. most notably not flipping early enough. I vegged til 13 inches hoping theyd stretch to 26-30 inches and have adequate space away from light, well I underestimate them way too much! despite stretching a ton, these girls were both amazing to grow. bounced back to every training, with a lot of lst and topping and defol, they never stayed down long. they eat a lot, and once i got my feed dialed in they grew healthy and strong thru harvest. i chopped at all milky trichs, decided to harvest all in one go. so lowers have a tiny clear trich but mostly milky, tops are fully milky and after dry have a tiny touch of yellow or amber at tips. effects are ranging from 70-30 sativa (on lowers with clearer trichs) its high energy. very distinct feeling of relaxation all thru body from neck down feel loose in joints and relaxed. in mind i feel very sharp, focused and productive. at the same time i noticed i was more creative. i teach tennis classes and i was better able to describe what I was trying to convey to my student who is a teen, creativity helps. both our games improved, definitely a nice productive smoke, tastey as hell in vape or bowl. grinds up and smells like blueberries soaked in gasoline, topped with a big squeeze of lemon and dash of spicey red chili peppers! ooooh eeee! this stuff is amazing, and the bubble hash i spun looks like its going to be top quality once it dries! will post more pictures of buds once they cure up a bit more. should mention as a hash / rso maker, i also pulled over 1,000 grams of wet fan leaf, and a few hundred grams of trim which yields great medicine not accounted for in harvest #s00

Weekly update on these absolutely gorgeous girls. I was gone for the beginning of the week and came back today and I swear the flowers have doubled in size. They're smelling super strong and gassy. The flowers are dense as rocks so I hope with the summer heats they'll stay that way and not become airy. All in all Happy Growing.

14 Jul 2021 The plant is still looking lovely, and her buds look wonderful. I’m continuing with the flush of properly pH’ed water chilled to 46.3F. My initial pH was 7.7, so I added 15 gtts (1.5ml) of pH DOWN which adjusted the pH to 6.2. I’d like it to be higher, but working with pH DOWN is so much harder than pH UP! The TDS going in was 75 ppm. Our heat wave is still going strong, and the temperature in the tent was 88F with humidity at 44%. The runoff pH was 5.3, and TDS runoff was 1897 ppm. That’s a reduction of 410 ppm from the watering on the 12th. At this rate it’ll be next week or later till I can harvest. If it does, I may end up harvesting sooner and curing longer. 🤷‍♂️ I’ll have to wait and hope I guess. 16 Jul 2021 I’m continuing with the flush today, and I’m beginning to think I should start flushing more often, yet I don’t want to damage the plant. At this stage of growth I don’t know if overwatering is as detrimental as it is to a younger, less developed plant. I want to harvest it before she gets too far along in her trichome development. She was clearly ready when I checked them on July 10th, and I don’t want her to get much farther along. Today I’m giving water at tap temps because at this point I don’t believe it matters. Everything I’m deciding to do is purely by instinct and trial and error. I feel like a researcher working on viable material that has a known outcome in general, but getting to the final stage (harvest) is detrimental in how the individual works the issues, or problems, and prepares for a desired outcome. Only each strain is different, and learning to adjust to those differences is the learning process. I never knew that growing weed could be so much fun, or as stressful! But I dig it! Today she received a gallon of water with an initial pH of 7.7. I added pH down 5 gtts (.5ml), which adjusted the pH to 6.4. TDS going in was 91 ppm. Runoff pH was 5.9, and TDS runoff was 1407 ppm. Temperature in the tent was 84F, and humidity was 60%. There was a 390 ppm reduction from the last watering 2 days ago. At least it’s moving in the right direction. 18 Jul 2021 The flush is going well as you’ll be able to see once I post my numbers a little later in this note. Her buds are still looking awesome, and she still looks healthy for the most part. Her leaves on the fan side still look dried up on the edges, but not completely dead. Since it’s happening on both of my plants in the same location, the cause was easy to surmise as I’ve noted it before. I’ll be ready for harvest in about a week or less, and then her tent mate will be left alone for a while. Today she was given a gallon of water chilled to 57.2F with an initial pH of 8.0. I added 8 gtts (>1ml) of pH DOWN in 2 separate increments to adjust it to pH 6.7. The TDS going in was 80 ppm. The runoff pH was 6.1, and TDS runoff was 784 ppm. That’s a reduction of 623 ppm since the last flushing/watering. So I’m down into the 3 digit realm now, so hopefully it won’t be too much longer! She smells like blueberry muffins! I’m not even kidding a little. Like blueberry muffins. I’ve never seen a better named strain ever! 20 Jul 2021 Flushing continues in my grow room today. I swear this part takes so long and is so frustrating. I only have myself to blame, but all is still good. She is ready for harvest, but I still need to finish this up first. The TDS runoff shows that the level is still dropping, just not as fast as I’d like it to be. Today I chilled a gallon of water to 57.7F, then got her ready to give my baby. The initial pH was 8.1, so I added pH DOWN 10 gtts (1ml), which adjusted the pH to 6.8. The TDS going in was 74 ppm. Runoff today: pH 6.3, and TDS 658 ppm. Our heat wave is still kicking hard, so the tent temperature was 88F, and humidity was 49%. I’m still hoping to harvest in a few days to a week from now. It all just depends on the flush. I didn’t bother with any pics today. Mainly because the lights went off as I was finishing up and figured there aren’t any changes from 2 days ago to bother. However, today ends a week, so the next will be a fresh week, so I’ll take pics then.

High Growmies, die Blüten haben angefangen an Volumen zuzunehmen sowie die Harz Produktion an zu steigern. Was die Harz Produktion betrifft bin echt begeistert sie wird an manchen Stellen so dicht das es leuchtet. Die Terpene sind nicht von dieser Erde! Sowas süßes und fruchtiges hatte ich noch nicht!

Hallo meine Pflanzen Freunde. Wieder ist eine Woche rum, die Pflanzen sind aus der Vorblüte und sind jetzt in der Vollblüte. Ich muss sagen das bei dieser Sorte die Vorblüte sehr früh schon eingesetzt hat. Bei diesem strain geht alles Schlag auf Schlag. Dieser strain kann es gar nicht abwarten dicke schmackhafte buds zu produzieren, was mich glücklich stimmt. Mit der Luftfeuchtigkeit bin ich nicht ganz zufrieden sie könnte um 20% höher sein. Ich werde mir was einfallen lassen damit ich diese in Zukunft besser kontrollieren kann, ansonsten bin ich mit der Entwicklung zufrieden. Viele Verzweigungen hat dieser Phäno nicht aber ich glaube die Blütenstände die sie hat werden monströs. Wir werden sehen wo uns die Blütezeit schicken wird. Ich persönlich hätte mir ein paar Verästelungen gewünscht, man könnte diese Dame nicht einmal richtig Trainieren mit der LST Methode weil es nix zu trainieren gibt.☹️ Die Noiden Abstände sind umso besser, was nützt mir das wenn die Blüten direkt am Hauptstamm wachsen, nun man kann nicht immer alles haben und man sollte das beste draus machen was einen die Natur gibt. Deshalb wollen wir nicht soviel meckern und mit dem zufrieden sein was wir haben.✌️🏼 Das war es erstmal von dieser Woche, vielen Dank das du uns besucht hast und ein Like da gelassen hast. Schau gerne bei meinen anderen Büchern vorbei es gibt einiges zu sehen. Diese Pflanzen werden mit einem organischen Dünger von S&R Organics gedüngt.
