Still going strong

It's been a journey. I have been growing this longer than most of my plants because I really wanted to get big. It filled in nicely after a lot of topping and FIMing. A couple issues with pH sent me back at the end but it was ok. I'm really excited to try this cheese strain since I don't think I've grown another cheese strain before. Overall I would definitely say this was a good plan to grow. 💚🌱✌️

Moby Dick XXL Overview- Growth ~ *Grown under a spider farmer sf2000 only in a 4x4 tent* Initial Veg period was 5 weeks. I did not top her and I performed very minimal LST/ defoliation. I started her right of the bat with the microbials (Mammoth P/ Recharge) and then later added my NFTG feed int week 4. She really started to explode in growth in week 4/5. I honestly did not notice one yellow leaf up until the very end when I started to flush her. This strain is very very tolerant I would say and grows HUGE. I started seeing signs of flowering in week 6 and it was history from there! She exploded with even more growth nearly doubling its size in flower (3.5 ft to be exact) and she grew many massive colas slammed with milky trichomes and dank smells! Buds grow long and slender as opposed to small/dense like golf balls. Nutrients ~ She was potted into a 6-gal fabric airpot w/ M3 soil. Like I do with most my plants I started her slowly with just microbial feeds (w/Mammoth P and Recharge) and I did not start using my main nutrient line (Nectar for The Gods) until week 4. I really like using a foliar spray to feed also. I kept a simple feed schedule with this one and it worked out really well. I try to follow this schedule (Shown below) as close to possible with some obvious interruptions to it here and there. Microbe tea /VEG ONLY*foliar spray No Water Feed /VEG ONLY*foliar spray Microbe tea No Water /VEG ONLY*foliar spray No Water or Flush (every two weeks) Aroma/Taste ~ One of my favorite parts about this plant was its aroma. Very pine like but sharp and unique . Its described an exotic wood smell and I definitely get that. Its so refreshing and earthy it’s a VERY nice change of pace from the fruitier strains. You do get a slight citrusy smell but the pine/ wood smell is really the overpowering smell. It is by far the smelliest auto I have ever grown so I really really respect how well of a job Dinafem did on these genetics. They obviously didn’t just focus on the size of the plant! She has a nice smooth flavor that is earthy and sharp . The wood flavors linger a bit which is very nice! Effects~ Almost instantly felt it in my head. Blessed with a euphoric feeling of calmness and almost a numbness to reality. I felt it for sure and it was very potent. 1 joint had me feeling it very hard and th high lasted what felt like an hour or so which is not the case for me usually! Its attributed to the sativa dominance this plant has. Im so used to growing hybrids or indica dom plants I almost forgot what sativa highs felt like! Thanks Moby Dick XXl for slapping me in the face and reminding me!! Overall thoughts~ This plant is really easy to grow, and she stays true to her name and grows massive. This strain should be tried by any auto lover 100% I think Dinafem nailed this strain all across the board. Was pleasantly surprised with how tolerant to nutrients/ light she is. I had the light closer than suggested most her flowering and she didn’t stress at all. I cant really come up with a negative thing to say about this plant, maybe the buds are airy but that’s because she is very sativa dominant it was a bastard to trim her for sure. Drying/ Curing method~ -Dried for 11 days in a low humidity environment/ completely dark area with good airflow. Hung her as an entire plant with all the leaves still on her. -Dry trimmed her (very hard strain to trim) -Put right into mason jars and sealed shut for 3 days then began burping her (I am not using boveda ***) -Burped twice a day for 2 weeks straight and maintained 60-62 humidity. -Slowed down burping to once a night the third week .

I still have problems with high levels of humidity, usually around 65% during the night and 55% during the day, I ended up removing more leaves to try to reduce the amount of humidity in the air. I can see that the buds grew since last week, I was expecting the buds to be a bit bigger this week, but I'm happy with the current size, but I'm happy with the amount of trichomes present. DAY 96 PH - 5.93 Solution Temp - 19 PPM-2000 Watering Volume per plant - 4L DAY 103 - Water PH - 6 Solution Temp - 18 PPM-690 Watering Volume per plant - 4L

Hey Growers, end of week 7 from seed :) This is plant #2 Its a female Took a while for me to reveal its gender. She is looking healthy and is growing fast. Did some trimming Slowing increasing nutrients, I am Currently feeding every three days 1 gallon of water with 1/2 of the recommended feeding schedule given from the manufacturer. Will keep you guys posted with more, see you next week 😊

🚨 Durbin Thai/Cinderella 99 week 19 update 🚨 🚨 134 days old!! 🚨 🌸 Day 43 of Flower 🌸 So this is a clone I received on Jan 31st. She has been transplanted from a solo cup 2 a 5 gal pot. She had 2 be topped in her second week of rooting do 2 the top frying from to much light in young clone stage. Since the topping this lady has come 2 life!! She has been defoliated 4 times! Most recent defoliation 3/24! She spent her first month feeding just off nutrients in fox farm soil. On 3/2/22 I gave her her first Gaia Green trio feeding!! She has exploded with growth since!! She was defoliated on 3/27 again. She was given her second feeding of @gaiagreenorganics on 4/02. This lady was defoliated on 4/10 and 4/19 and 5/1. She received a all purpose/bloom feed of Gaia green on 5/2. She was also flipped to 12/12 light cycle on 5/2. She received a heavy defoliation on 5/29. 5/30 gave the girl a 15 tablespoon dose of Gaia green worm castings. Installed the new Marshydro Fc-4800 in the tent on 5/31!! She received her full bloom feeding of 5 tablespoons of power bloom on 6/2!!This is what she looks like today!! 💡 Grow Sponsor💡 @marshydroled__amazon @marshydronnier #marshydro #fc4800 Marshydro equipment-- Marshydro- 4x4 grow tent Marshydro- Fc4800 Marshydro- 6" inline exhaust fan with digital temp and humidity sensor Marshydro- 6" carbon filter Marshydro- 6" Black duct line Other companies in this grow- @foxfarmsoilandfertilizer - 100% ffof @gaiagreenorganics @inkbirdofficial - WiFi temp control @madmanplant- 6" Tent shelves #rvagrown #rvagrower #cannabisgrower #homegrown #hightimes #weed4ptsd #weed4veterans #veterangrown #tricomes #ledgrown #weedstrains #indoorgrow #indoorgrown #tentgrown #supportlocal #growlocal #letsgrowrva #weedismedicine #420 #veterangrower #clonegrown #marshydro #fc4800

Orange cookies is a beast , wow she’s huge taking up half the tent and striding into stretch I’m gonna have to lollipop this one pretty hard or I’ll run out of room this one outside would be a behemoth. Love these dutchfem specials, very solid

The plant has removed all the leaves, the buds should be dried in the dark, at 21 degrees at 50% humidity

New tops looking great and healthy the second nodes are coming in good also week 7 the black moonflower is next to the small autoflowers

Day 44 – Steady March into Flowering The journey continues! Although the weather remains inconsistent — with chilly mornings, bursts of afternoon sun, and cold nights — this lady refuses to be held back. She’s thriving confidently in her super soil blend, nourished solely with pH-balanced tap water, and showing no signs of slowing down. Her foliage has become lush and expansive, acting like solar panels eagerly soaking in every bit of light they can capture between the clouds. New growth is vigorous, and the pre-flowering signs are now clearly taking shape, promising a smooth transition into full bloom. The top node is beginning to stack, and those early pistils are spreading — a sure sign she’s enjoying her environment. Although nighttime temperatures have dipped, she’s been strong enough to remain outdoors under the open sky. To protect her from the sneaky slug patrol, I’ve elevated her above ground level — a small tactic, but one that keeps her canopy untouched and flourishing. There’s something uniquely rewarding about this outdoor grow — it’s low-cost, hands-on, and deeply satisfying. While indoor tents offer more control, nothing beats adapting to nature’s rhythm and still achieving such healthy development. Much credit goes to FastBuds.com for the genetics. This girl is showing impressive resilience, structure, and poise — exactly what you want in a CBD-dominant auto. Can’t wait to transform this harvest into some rich, therapeutic CBD oil. One step closer each day! Day 46 – Thriving Naturally Under Open Skies This lady continues to prove that sometimes, less is truly more. I’ve kept things as simple and natural as possible — no synthetic nutrients, no grow tents, no artificial stimulation. Just clean, pH-balanced tap water and a super soil blend I mixed myself months ago. The result? A strong, healthy, and surprisingly resilient plant that now towers confidently at over 60 cm and is embracing her flowering phase with grace. Yesterday brought a refreshing rainfall — and while some might worry about outdoor exposure, this girl clearly enjoyed every drop. Her leaves were glistening with energy this morning as the sun returned, and the vibrant growth is undeniable. It’s moments like these that remind me why I chose an outdoor grow: nature takes care of its own when we provide the right foundation. I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to keep her outside right through to harvest. With the summer sun still ahead, she’s got the best part of the season to stretch, stack, and swell those buds. Massive appreciation to FastBuds.com — the genetics are absolutely spot on for a low-maintenance grower like myself. Reliable, vigorous, and beautiful to watch evolve. No gimmicks. No stress. Just sun, soil, and the will to grow. Day 49 – Battle-Tested by Nature, Still Standing Tall What a wild few days it’s been! Heavy rain and strong winds put my lady through her first proper trial. At one point she even took a tumble from her pedestal and bent slightly under the pressure. But if there’s one thing that’s become crystal clear — Fast Buds genetics are made of iron. 💪 Despite the rough weather, she’s bounced back beautifully. Today the skies have cleared, and the sunshine has returned — and so has her posture. Her leaves are once again reaching outward with confidence, showing no signs of stress or damage. It’s moments like these that make outdoor cultivation so rewarding. There’s no hiding from the elements out here — it’s all about adaptability, resilience, and harmony with nature. My growing technique remains deliberately minimalistic: no artificial feeds, no grow tents, no special shelters — just pure rain, sunlight, and my homemade super soil blend. The goal is to let nature take the lead, and so far, she’s doing a brilliant job. If you’re thinking of trying an outdoor grow and want something straightforward yet satisfying, I can’t recommend FastBuds.com genetics enough. They’ve created a line that genuinely thrives even under less-than-ideal conditions. We’ve now passed the 7-week mark, and I’m more convinced than ever that this grow will finish strong, under open skies — just the way I envisioned. 🌿☀️

Giorno 100 Che pianta!!! Che odori!!! Meno male ho ancora due semini e tutto tornerà buono tra qualche anno quando avrò spazio e magari le leggi saranno meno severe e potrò divertirmi di più facendo cloni tenendo mamme ect... La pianta anche per le temperature molto basse purtroppo anche di giorno verrà tolta a breve. "Spendete il vostro tempo a trovare il seme piuttosto che fare la prima cosa che vi regalano o il primo pacchettino che trovate. Le banche semi non sono tutte uguali e di conseguenza l'erba che vi fumate" A settimana prossima 🖐️ ❤️ A settimana prossima 🖐️ ❤️

Best smoke ever - take my word for it 👍🏽

Tea once a week, ;))))

For this week, plants are still looking healthy, followed the usual regime of normal water and nutrient feed pattern. I didn't fill the need to defoliate, so I mostly did some leaf tucking. At his stage, the two plants have filled up the box, and they still have room to grow horizontally, so a note to self to flower 2 clones a week early next grow.

6.4.25: I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with the following nutrients;- ♡ 4ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids ♡ .75g Ecothrive Biosys Total PPM 880. 6.4.25: FastBuds Mystery Seed #1: She has been topped twice and is looking pretty strong 💪 She has grown vertically, and leaves are always praying. Possibly too much light, so I have turned the dimmer down to about 90%. There are slight bleached tips on a couple of top leaves. I'm hoping to do the same LST with garden wire here very soon. Overall, the plant has nice big, fat leaves. Seemingly lush colour and vigorously growing since the double toppings. Very nice plant so far. 👌 I have made the fleece tabs, and attached them as on my Northern Lights plant. I have started LST using the wire shown in photos. As well as two of the LST clips. I watered beforehand with 2 litres PH'd to 6.5 with 1g Ecothrive Biosys. The plant is looking great. Nicely structured. I'm going to do my very best not to mess this up!! 🤞 Thanks for hanging out 🍃 ✌️ 💚 🙂

Day 7 Flowering: Hi all. The fast buds funsters have been busy setting up their stretch time and look set to spring into a burst of growth. They are all clearly flowering with signs of stretch showing in the length of each growing tip too. Six shooter is thebsmaller of the three ladies and I have left her pretty much alone besides a clean up below , she doesn't look like she will be a big lady so I can keep her in her chosen shape. Strawberry Pie was tied up on her 5th node to allow the lowers to catch up initially and has now ignored that completely and accelerated it to catch up since flowering began. lol. She looks nice and happy with upright leaves and I have took a little lower growth out for flowering focus. She is a good size to really use her stretch period to my advantage so will be pinned for the final bud building. Mexican airline has decided its taking off without clearance and despite my attempt to ground the 5th node. I had bound it like the Strawberry but shebbounced back too so i put a 90° bend gently on the srem and she still bounced back. I have now been more aggressive with the stem and kinked it with a slight splitting if the flesh too. It should for a knuckle for the former merristem to be held up . The lowers can now catch up better while she strengthens the damaged stem too. She would be a very tall girl if let free I think. I did a little clean out of lower growth on her too . Thankfully the gnats are no longer bothering the plants roots so this is mounter a worry. feeding well each feeding time and only to a small runoff. no signs of burn or any other deficiency at this point but I am ready with the cal mag just in case. A good week. be safe Growmies.
