Week 12: Partial Harvest & Bruce's Final Stand
Update: 10.08.2025 | Day 87
Big updates as predicted: I chopped two girls due to bad weather. Fear of big losses was bigger than my need to get to the max. Harvested Forbidden Runtz and Green Crack as they were almost fully ripe. 20% amber and 80% milky trichomes have to be good enough. Weather conditions were far from good - but both girls fought through it like Rocky. Great resilient genetics FastBuds. Hats off!
Now let's come to our last survivor - Bruce Banner:
Although trichomes are mostly cloudy with only scattered amber trichomes, there are still a lot of white pistils left in the budsites. She's still in bloom mode but resin isn't there like with my other two girls. Next days are forecasted with extremely hot weather (35°C again!) - hope this gives her the last kick.
Next steps:
- Keep her on the edge to use up all internal resources
- Check for mold daily
- Find the perfect chop moment
I think the next update on this girl will be the harvest report, my friends. It was a pleasure to grow these three girls and I enjoyed the minimum maintenance and resources approach in comparison to last year's coco daily feeding hustle. The plants know themselves best what they need and it's only on me to read my plants and react only if necessary.
Thanks to all of ya for joining me on this amazing journey 😍
And last but not least thanks FastBuds for creating such amazing strains and genetics.

Day 45 for this beautiful lady. She’s very impressive. I’m happy with how she’s turning out. Fast buds really knocked this one out of the park. Can’t wait to watch her swell and bulk. She isn’t too stinky yet can’t wait to find out what she will smell like. She’s big and bushy which is awesome because she was just a little baby I wasn’t sure about her potential but boy oh boy she’s grown up.

Hey growmies,
The last weeks have been the nightmare of every grower: consistent rain during flowering and so much to do that our hobby takes a lower rank in our list of priorities.
That said: the plant has been the absolute dream! The resistance to pests and insects has been unbelievable. No signs of any mildew. No budrot, no aphids.. nothing.
Instead we have trichome overloaded dense buds. What more could anyone ask for?!
I am super happy with the plant and how everything turned out. Unfortunately I think I can’t participate in the contest anymore but big thanks to fastbuds for this quality of genetics.
Happy growing everyone!

Unfortunately I had to take the photos a little earlier this week as I'm traveling. I think the biggest stretch is finished. In the meantime, the little one exudes a pleasant fruity smell.

I planted the seed on March 31 Easter and 8 days later they all sprouted . I literally throw em in the soil. Didn’t use paper towel nor let it soak in water. I had this strain yrs in freezer and grew previous strains before from Elev8 like Granny Apple Fritter, HeadCake , Magic Monkey etc last harvest was Birthday Runtz. I be wanting to clone but I am still trying out diff as well looking for a keeper. Now willing to show my work on their discord plus on here diaries to seewhat I can do with their genetics.

Black Cream Starting To flower. Beautifull plant.. It as came to the first scrog level. Started Training. Dont know if it let her got or make another scrog level. Please share your ideias. Scrog Its new for me but in small budget space i get it. ... this its the way to go.
Bomberry its a slowstarter maybe gave her a little more water in seedling fase. The pots are big and it was dificult to control seedling moist at begening.... Killed 3 seedlings.
Wedding Cake looking good
Purple Couscous Tink its going to be another beast.
Share Idias. Sensores with possibel integration. i will make it work.
Hope You Like This Diferent Aprotche To The Culture

This girl smells amazing...She was also pollinated a couple day ago with the SKUNK #1. I can't wait to grow those seeds. No complaints this week...It's rainy season here so I'm just working around that.

I am late this week because on the girls' 8 week birthday, they both started looking HORRIBLE, and I was scrambling for a couple days.
Looking back, documenting those moments is probably more helpful than just showing pictures of everything going smoothly.
I think it might have been a Zinc deficiency, but it all boiled down to poor nutrient, pH, and watering practices.
This is my first grow, so the more I learn the better!
New leaves were forming brown tips, growth was stunted overall, and the veins on the leaves were becoming very prominent and white. After a day or so, the tips and edges of leaves started to curl up or "taco".
So I flushed the plants for the first time.
One recovered really well in 24 hours while the other improved a bit, but was still looking sad. I ended up flushing her a second time the next day.
Soil for both plants is still pretty damp but should be flushed well, and once it completely dries out, I can amend my feeding practices and give them another ~week before flowering.
I'm going to cut the nutrient amounts in 1/2, only feed nutrients with every other watering, and also give the plants more water to allow the proper amount of run-off.
I guess this is very important in preventing a build up of nutrients in the soil.
Hey, you live and you learn!
Also started trying some super cropping because I want to try it all, haha.
