So as you can tell, a branch broke off in training... She has been pretty hard to train as her stems had been getting very thick, very quick.. I have been adding silica, but I do that with all my plants but this girl just gets thick quick... Nothing but dots recharge and some silica.. hope everyone is doing well and happy growing! God bless

Week 2 Unveiled: Cherry Cola Auto Flourishes in Style Hi Guys , as our botanical journey with the Cherry Cola Auto from Fast Buds Seeds unfolds, the second week has proven to be nothing short of a horticultural spectacle. Buckle up as we dive into the lush details of a week that witnessed a significant move – the grand transplant. Our star, the Cherry Cola Auto, is not just growing; it's thriving. With a green thumb and a heart full of enthusiasm, we decided it was time to elevate its living space. Enter the 16L fabric pot – a home fit for botanical royalty. Why fabric pots, you ask? Well, these porous wonders enhance aeration, drainage, and root development. It's like giving our plant its very own spa day, promoting a healthy and vigorous root system. But the transplant wasn't just about upgrading real estate. We sprinkled a bit of magic in the form of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix on the roots and their surroundings. This mix is a microbial powerhouse, fostering a symbiotic relationship between the roots and beneficial fungi. Think of it as a green handshake that boosts nutrient absorption and overall plant health. To ensure our Cherry Cola Auto feels at home, we prepped the soil with 75g of Aptus All-in-One Pellets (NPK) and some Aptus Mycor Mix Soil. The pellets provide a balanced nutritional feast, while the Mycor Mix adds another layer of microbial goodness. It's like creating a gourmet meal for our green companion, satisfying its every nutrient need. Post-transplant, our plant received a special elixir – the Veg Aptus Recipe. This concoction includes 0.15ml/L Regulator, a nutrient transporter with Mono-silicic acid, Boron, and Molybdenum, ensuring a smooth nutrient journey. The caMg-boost at 0.5ml/L and Start Booster at 0.25ml/L add the essential building blocks for robust growth. Topping it off is the Enzym+, a 10ml/L dosage, ensuring a nutrient buffet for our Cherry Cola Auto. Our green companion now resides under the Lumatek 465W Zeus Compact Pro LED in a new tent. The move was orchestrated with precision, thanks to the assistance of Miss 420 during the transplant. The Lumatek LED provides a spectrum of light mimicking the sun, promoting photosynthesis and bud development. It's like giving our plant front-row seats to a botanical light show. As we wrap up this detailed report, a heartfelt thank you to Fast Buds Seeds, your creation is a botanical symphony. Aptus Holland,Blessed with your sponsour is the best that ever apened to me and my gardens, your products are the secret ingredients to our success. Grow Diaries community, your camaraderie fuels our passion. Here's to another week of flourishing growth, vibrant leaves, and the promise of a bountiful harvest. Until next time, keep cultivating the green magic!

Доброго дня Сегодня ровно 135 дней моей девочке и ровно 10 недель как я ее перевел на цвет. Думаю подержать ее еще пару дней. последние два дня я ее поливал ледяной водой и не по 3 литра как всегда, а всего лишь по 0,5 литра. Она почти готова, думаю еще несколько дней ей пойдут на пользу. Еще не решил сутки или двое она у меня будет без света. Совсем забыл. в начале недели я обрезал большую часть листьев.

Another week down, lots of growth this week. Got rid of a few leaves blocking light getting to major bud spots and the plants seem to have reacted okay with it all, made sure didn't go overboard. Plants producing a strong citrus/fruity smell when opening and closing tent, the smell after touching them is just incredible sticky, fruity fingers for hours 😂 if anyone is thinking of growing these ladies invest in a carbon filter (So glad I did before flowering), im running 7 in total and the house is filled with the aroma after the tent being open a few minutes, (I don't mind, neighbours might). Give a nice big water on Monday, let the plants do their thing throughout the week until drying up and provided a feed with less nutes than normal, which they seem to drink up instantly! Each plant has grew different, size / shape, however all providing equally as nice bud sites and size, absolutely amazing to compare each one beside each other. Managing to keep humidiy low 50s, good air flow constantly and temps sitting 20 in dark 24-26 with lights on. Noticed slight yellowing on tips of some leaves very tiny and slight bend, is this due to nutes? Only came around within the last few days. Shall upload some close ups with the jewlers piece tomorrow 🙏😁 thanks for looking and all the help so far from everyone who has commented! Attached video as didn't get much time to picture - got some more pics in today + close ups

Looks pretty ripe, what do you think? I wish my camera could capture a clear picture of this beauty. The smell is heavier now. I was tempted to fertilize with mineral fertilizer to "improve growth")), but decided not to do it - I'll check the possibilities of the substrate to the end. What I see, I am quite satisfied.

Ended up being a pretty successful grow , had a few challenges with summer temps but after switching from HID lights to LED lights mid flower ( which was stressful at the time ) the girls didn’t miss a beat . They aren’t dry completely yet after hanging for 10 days maybe another 3 or 4 days and I’ll know dry weight etc … that total decreases every day tho , can’t help but throwing a handful of bud on the dehumidifier every morning.

This week I topped plant , so we can traine it later on. Each plant hat now 4 main nodes. I also noticed some Mg deficiency on the leaves not sure what result from likely some strain related issues. I added two times 1g Epsom Salt per liter water.

I cannot say what is going wrong with Elsa an my grow. I give her water every day hothing more, because she live in living soil. But you can see on the Picture… every day she looks more and more destroy. But on day 71 were i thought to end this grow with Elsa you can see that she fight… and I will fight to for her. The grow went in week 11 …

OVERALL: ~ Very happy with the grow, I really dialled everything in well this run. ~ She grew super fast, I put it down to the constant oxygenation of the rootzone along with consistent and constantly optimized light DLI and leaf to air temp variance. The extra Co2 helped push the plant to its limit in terms of heat, allowing it to push its hardest. ~ The lack of HST and Defoliation I feel let it finish faster due to lack of stress and stunting. The faster finishing time along with the big yield and efficient MarsHydro light, it hugely reduced my electricity costs per gram and freed up space much sooner for the next plant. ~ Turned into a very dense bush of buds, there is even smokable dense buds at the base of the plant due to the under canopy lighting (Not as dense as top canopy buds but still decent) ~ Ran a thin line between stressing the plant and letting it flourish. The buds came out big and very dense, also it's hard to see on camera but they're very frosty too (Prob from UVB) YIELD: ~ 145g (dry) in just 9 weeks from seed. ~ 753g (Wet) ~ 0.91g/watt GENETICS: ~ MSNL - Gorilla Glue Auto ~ my favorite strain, as you can tell by my username! STRAIN REVIEW: ~ Heavy hitter, like an indica but has some of that "feel it in your face" sensation of a strong sativa. Not as heavy or as strong as other GG#4's I have smoked, which would make me question the genetics used to produce the auto version. I will wait till after a cure and judge it again. TRAINING: ~ No defoliation or HST (Bar last week for pics) ~ A little LST and leaf tucking but largely just left the plant alone to do its thing. I felt chopping healthy parts off the plant would slow the plant down and leave it with less chlorophyll to photosynthesize the light. ~ I did prune by lightly plucking dead leaves away, when the plant was ready to let them go easily. DRYING ~ 20/21'C 50% RH with air circulation. ~ Homemade Drybox made using: 2 x Bankers Boxes ~ 2 x USB Desk Fans ~ 1 x Carbon Filter ~ 6 x Clothes Hangers UPDATE: Day 5 after Harvest: ~ Fast dried some small batches, as we couldn't wait to sample. ~ Chopped off branches as some are down to 12% moisture whilst bigger buds are up at 18%. Moving to paper bag for couple of days to even moisture out then transferring to jars CURING: ~Curing in jars 3/4 full. ~ Dark closet/18'C/50% RH ~ Jars burped once Hygro passes 65% and sealed when it drops to 58%. ~ Stabilised it at 62% and after 2 weeks I'll drop it some more and stabilise it at 58% to bring out more of the flavour. ~Sitting in jars with Boveda 62% at this stage. ~ Already tastes and feels great. WATER: ~ Condensed (Starting at 40ppm) ~ Disinfected prior to adding nutrients etc. (Using COOSPIDER UVC - 253nm & 187nm bulb) CLIMATE: ~ Ambient Air Temp = 29'C ~ 28'C LST ~ Leaf to air temp variance of between 1'C ~ Night Temp = 22/23'C ~ Day/Night temp differential 6-7'C ~ Under Canopy Temp: 26'C (Day) ~ 21'C (Night) ~ Relative Humidity = 50-60%RH (Avg. 55%RH) ~ VPD = 1.45kPa (Avg.) ~ Co2 ranges from 900ppm to 1500ppm (Avg. 1200ppm) AIR PRESSURE: ~ Ambient Air Pressure (outside tent) = Mean Avg. 1010 mbars (101 Kilopascals) ~ Actual Air Pressure (inside tent) = Mean Avg. 1005 mbars (100.5 Kilopascals) ~ Air Pressure Differential = up to 0.5 kPa range between inside & outside LIGHT: ~ UVB (High intensity @ 45cm) ~ 2 hours daily mid light cycle. ~ Warm White 3000K/White 5000k/Far Red (660nm) ~ At plant canopy = PPFD 900-1000umols/s/m2 ~ Lux 45,000-55,000 ~ Daily Light Integral 55-65 ~ Under canopy lighting ~ Blue (460nm)/ Red (630nm) NUTRIENTS: ~ Mostly Advanced Nutrients (For base nutrients and most additives, as only company I could find scientific data on) ~ Canna (For Calmag Agent and Cannazym) ~ Plant Success (Great White Mycorrhizae) ADDITIONAL GROW TECHNIQUES: INFECTION PREVENTION & CONTROL: Infection control practices i.e ~ PPE, Alcohol Hand wash ~ Gray room outside tent, ~ Carbon filter ~ HEPA filter ~ Plasma Ionizer ~ Inline UV-C germicidal bulb ~ Also using an additional higher powered COOSPIDER (UVC) 253nm & 187nm bulb, to disinfect the gray room outside of the tent once a week for 30 mins. ~ Ozone (o3) gas that is produced using the COOSPIDER, is then directed into the tent to further control any unwanted pathogens. ~ Ed Rosenthal (Zero Tolerance organic pesticide), sprayed once a week as preventative measure. On hand for heavier use (Once every 3 days before lights out for 15 days) in the case of an outbreak (No outbreaks yet, due to aforementioned preventative measures)

Herbies Godzilla Cookies popped it's head first with Fastbuds Wedding Glue right behind. Went ahead and put them in their new home to get further acquainted. Using Spring water PH 7.0, 31 ppm. Mixed 50/50 with tap, final ppm of 80 (for now). Then bubbled for atleast 24hrs. Longer the better so all chemistry shit that happens with the co² and carbonic acid can happen and give me more stable water. Less drastic ph swings that way. Res solution: Water 80ppm CalMag plus 4ml/2gal ^2 195-200ppm 4ml/2gal Hydroguard 1.3mL/2gal Flora Micro 1.3mL/2gal Flora Grow 1.3mL/2gal Flora Bloom Needed .75ml ph down to hit 5.81 Final ppm 295 RES stays at 68 with Ice Probe and controller. Has potential to go MUCH lower if wanted. Check ph 8am & 8pm, adjust if needed. *MORE exciting content... Late RES check this AM. I didn't bubble this spring water, just the tap. Bubbling the mixture for 24hrs plus for now on. Adding oxy is aiding in bringing PH up in the RES, along with low nute concententration. Up to 6.42 from 5.81, added .4mL down to bring it back to 5.76 after topping off RES. TDS up to 346 from ph adjustments. *swapped out the POS taotronic humidifier for a reptile fogger hooked up to a pymeter t/h controller. DEFINITELY recommend you check em out. Less then 30 bucks. RES change.. switch from nutecalc to GHE "light" feed. After crunching numbers, decided on mixing 1/2 strength week 2 feed to prep these girls for a higher dose. 2gal water-220ppm 3.6mL Micro-364ppm 3.4mL Grow-441ppm 2.6mL Bloom-482ppm. PH'd to 5.75. *pics are right at lights on, and it looks like they're still sleeping. Adjusted fans a bit since WG showing signs of stress on her leaf edges and curling a bit. Could have been from the other day when I raised the light and cranked it up to warm things up a bit.
