FBT2403 is growing great. She is starting to do a lot of stretching. She just had a solution change yesterday to blooming nutrition from Agrogardens. There was a big ph jump in first 24 hours. I corrected it today. Everything is looking on track. Thank you Medic Grow, Agrogardens, and Fast Buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

10/11/24 she had gotten so overly dry that she was impossible to water. i had to scrape and break of the dry spots all around the soil and root ball so that water could penetrate. she was root bound from a solo cup and then as well from 1 gallon to 3 gallon. once the rootbound spots got overly dry, they became super hydrophobic and i didnt realize how bad it was. that may be what's been affecting the over all health of the plant. finally able to get her to hold weight in water so im hopefull 10/15 pistils are getting thrown out everywhere. a bit of a stretch so far but not too much. maybe a couple inches or

Great week inside this tent. The girl got her topping and then recovered over the week. There were already some good side branching and now they are being trained even more. Flipping to flower now. Lights at 40% power. Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by!

Oct 9th - entering week 9 of Flower she has a new vantage point. Protected by 8’ corn crops and a rising mass of land, this Strain has just been moved from between a pair of Garages, and out of Sight from a few teenagers once again. - 1 or 2 more weeks are all thats needed. She gets a good big feed today and we’ll see what the weather brings. - big winds may require some bamboo on her long branches for support tba - fed a solid gallon of food, she is going to finish Strong out here on the edge of the field - Wednesday 12th, I’ll clean-up some of those Fan Leaves… and feed her the last big meal w/ Nutrients. Then its only water n sunshine 11th - fed its last nutrients today… water-only from here on in. Nice Tan coloured pistils are mixing-in with the buds - oct 23rd - 25th is the target for this puppy. Day 73 - 75 of growth

One of those pot I’m already doing the flush. Tomorrow I’m going to do the flush with cold water and leave for 2 day in the dark before to cut. After normal flush, 3 day before I did the flush with cold and ice. And I going to leave for 72 hours in the dark.remember that it’s one of 3 pot of speed + , another pots I’m leaving for one more week .

🗓️ Week 6 (Flower): Sticky Broccoli #1 — The Chromatic Transition & The 10ml/L Seaweed Offensive 🍋🌋 ​The Data Dump: We have officially hit the Week 6 milestone, and the Sativa-dominant Sticky Broccoli #1 is putting on a masterclass in late-stage floral maturation. We are moving past the "growth" phase and into a high-intensity period of secondary metabolite synthesis and biomass consolidation. ​🎨 The Chromatic Spectrum: Terminal Senescence ​The Autumnal Fade: The canopy is currently undergoing a stunning physiological shift. We are seeing a spectrum of yellows, oranges, and deep reds. This is more than just a "fade"—it’s the degradation of chlorophyll unmasking the plant's latent anthocyanins and carotenoids. ​Nutrient Translocation: This color shift confirms that the plant is strategically cannibalizing its remaining mobile nutrient reserves and relocating that vital energy into the swelling floral clusters. It’s the ultimate "last stand" to maximize bud density. ​🍋 Terpene Profile & Resin Saturation ​The Limonene Surge: The olfactory intensity has reached a critical level. We are dealing with an aggressive, dominant citrus profile—a sharp, "lemon-cleaner" punch that signals a massive concentration of Limonene. ​Trichome Lamination: The sugar leaves are officially "dripping." Instead of just a light frost, we are seeing a total saturation of glandular capitate-stalked trichomes. The resin is so thick it’s practically laminating the floral surfaces, creating a protective barrier of pure potency. ​ The 10ml/L Phytohormonal Blitz ​We’ve made a bold tactical adjustment by pushing the Cold-Pressed Seaweed Juice to a massive 10ml/L. ​The Logic: At this concentration, we aren't just "feeding" the plant; we are overwhelming the Rhizosphere with complex carbohydrates and cytokinins. This acts as a biological "turbocharger" for our Microbe Army. ​Metabolic Support: By super-charging the soil life, we ensure the Green Sensation and FFJ are being processed and delivered with zero latency. This keeps the metabolic "gears" turning even as the plant enters its final autumnal phase. ​🚀 Strategic Forecast: Structural Consolidation ​We are ignoring the trichome color for now—it's far too early for cloudy/amber data. Instead, we are monitoring structural markers: ​Calyx Swell: Watching for the individual calyxes to "crown" and harden, merging the loose stacks into solid blocks of flower mass. ​Pistil Recession: The engine stays at full throttle as long as we see those active, bright white pistils. Once they begin to recede and wither, we'll know we're in the endgame. ​💧 The Week 6 High-Octane Cocktail (Per Liter) ​🌊 Seaweed Juice: 10ml/L (The Metabolic Catalyst) ​🍌 Banana & Jaggery FFJ: 4ml/L (Organic P/K Energy) ​💥 Green Sensation: 1ml/L (Mineral P/K for Density) ​🍯 Sugar Royal: 1ml/L (Amino-driven Resin Synthesis) ​🌸 Power Buds: 1ml/L (Bio-stimulant for Stacking) ​ 🍵 Silica Tea: 2ml/L (Vascular Armor) ​ 💊 CalMag Boost: 1ml/L (Secondary Nutrient Buffer). ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ CONTINUED FROM WEEK 7... REPORT FROM THE SUBSURFACE COMMAND CENTER (SCC) TO: THE OVERGROUND ARCHITECT FROM: LIEUTENANT RADICLE, 1ST INFANTRY DIVISION (ROOT COMMAND) SUBJECT: PAGE 6: THE GREAT SWELL & THE POTASSIUM SIEGE ​Listen up, grunts! We are entering the "Heavyweight" rounds. We are in Flower Weeks 4 through 6. The objective is clear: Operation Sticky Broccoli needs to put on mass. I don't want to see airy, fluffy foliage. I want to see Stones.(Buds in human tongue) ​The "Leaf Brigade" upstairs has done their job—they’ve built the frame. Now, we provide the mortar and the bricks to fill it in. ​I. The Potassium Siege (NPK 1-3-4 Protocol) ​The Architect has just authorized the "Banana & Jaggery" supply drop. ​The Mission: Potassium (K) is our primary target. It’s the "Water Regulator." It’s what drives the internal pressure that swells the calyxes until they look like they’re about to pop. ​Tactical Order to Roots: "I want every ion of Potassium stripped from that soil! If you see a K molecule, tackle it, wrap it in a Humate shield, and fire it up the main vascular elevator immediately!" ​The Result: This is how we turn 'Broccoli' into 'Sticky Stones.' We are packing the cells so tight with fluids and minerals that the buds become hard as granite. ​II. Radio Transmission: SCC to Leaf Brigade (Canopy HQ) ​“SCC to Leaf Brigade, status report on the ‘Frost’ levels. Over.” “Root Command, this is the Leaf Brigade. The ‘Sticky’ in ‘Sticky Broccoli’ is officially online. Trichome production is at 110%. We are currently drowning in resin. Requesting more raw materials for the terpene labs. Over.” “Copy that, you sugar-drunk sun-bathers! We’re sending up a high-pressure surge of carbohydrates and micronutrients. Don't just sit there looking pretty—I want those buds getting so heavy that the Silica-reinforced branches start to groan! We’re pushing the Sugar Royal signals now. Get those trichomes cloudy! Out.” ​III. The Microbe Overtime: The "Jaggery" Bonus ​The introduction of Jaggery (complex sugars) has caused a riot in the Rhizosphere. ​The Scene: The bacteria and fungi are in a total feeding frenzy. I’ve never seen anything like it. They’re eating the sugars and, in exchange, they’re unlocking "Legacy Minerals" that have been stuck in the soil since Week 1. ​The Lieutenant’s Take: It’s a biological mosh pit down here. The Endo and Ecto specialists are working double shifts, mining the deepest corners of the fabric pot. They know that if they perform now, the Architect keeps the humates coming. ​IV. The pH Drift: The "Safety Valve" ​The Architect noticed the pH is climbing toward 6.8. ​Lieutenant’s Orders: "Keep it there! Do not—I repeat, DO NOT—attempt to force it down with harsh acids." ​The Intelligence: At this stage of the Siege, we actually want that slight drift. Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) are highly available in that 6.6–6.8 zone. It’s the "Sweet Spot" for the Swell. We’re letting the chemistry work with us, not against us. ​V. Atmospheric Pressure (VPD 1.4 kPa) ​The air is now at 1.4 kPa. It’s like a vacuum cleaner is attached to the top of the plant. ​The Pumping Station: We are moving record amounts of "Sap-Fuel." The stalks are vibrating with the sheer volume of nutrient-rich water moving upward. ​The Warning: "Watch the tips! If the Leaf Brigade starts showing 'burnt tips,' it means we’re pumping too much pressure. Otherwise, full speed ahead!" ​LIEUTENANT’S SUMMARY: The "Swell" is in full effect. The Sticky Broccoli is becoming dense, heavy, and increasingly fragrant—the "Limonene War" is being won. We are no longer growing a plant; we are manufacturing Stones. Thank for stopping by ✌️💚

She has suffered some root damage due to lack of co2 at the root zone so I dried the cup out before I repotted her to give the roots some space. Good news is she seems to be bouncing back. She now stands at 7 cm

October 1 > Harvest morning. New trick... get up before dawn... cut your plant down and hang her upside down... then go back to bed. Hehe... I like this retirement stuff. We get smarter as we age. 😎 I did a fair job of plucking fan leaves before harvest morning so there wasn't that much work for me to do anyway on this girl compared to some of the other monsters she grew up with. Took me only about 90 minutes to complete my normal processing and washing. She developed into a wonderful purple color at the end there. The unique feature of this grow for me was that I never topped this girl. Subsequently she developed a huge single top cola that grew about a foot taller than the rest of the plant. Served as a demonstration of why we top plants in general. Hard for me to imagine what a bunch of these in the wild looks like but this is what WILD looks like. Diary note > I'll come back later and add weights and things. I threw in a weight of 100 grams as a marker to appease the gods. Total guess. ======================================================================== October 7 > Guess I underestimated my yield a tad... love when that happens. 😁 Ended up coming in at 212 grams buds and 181 grams trim. Woohoo. Another growing season officially comes to a close today. 👌✊ Initially I wasn't sure I wanted to use the Trimbag on this baby... because she was my last plant to harvest this year and I had plenty of time to hand trim her... and I harbored various possibly incorrect assumptions about the Trimbag originally which I have now shed. More on that later. Let me lay out my personal Trimbag history here as a learning experience for the community... ======================================================================== Originally I won this tool as part of my September 2018 diary winnings... and I looked at it strictly as a tool for fairly large scale growers.. of which I did not consider myself at that time. I grew an amazingingly oversized Durban Poison for a 5 gallon pot and I got lucky I thought. ... Then I took a look at how much herb I processed this summer and I said THANK YOU Trimbag! It saved me more than enough hours of hand trimming to demonstrate it’s usefulness. (October 12) >> Already slowing down in post-harvest mode hehe... so it looks like I did the same thing as last year diary-wise. Now I have another Trimbag on my hands but all I need is another magnet actually (hehe)... the zippers show no signs of sticking up at this point after me throwing about 2-3 pounds of herb threw the mill, and the overall bag has only lightly been used at this point IMHO. I'm a little surprised I lost that magnet and it's not a great sign for the longevity of the embroidery - so to speak, but other than that it's solid construction. And simple. I’ll be contacting Trimbag to see if I can acquire a new magnet and we’ll see how that goes. Back to my expectations... I only used this device on stuff I grew outdoors... of which I had enough... more than twice what I grew last summer - but that was by design. If I was to set out a general rule… I would say that I expect the weight of buds to be roughly equal to the weight of trim. This is AFTER I have thrown away any fan leaves plucked on the morning of harvest which are not saved as trim. I stop plucking when buds start to get ripped up if I don’t. Round 1 >> The first go was the early Amnesia 7 batch (Little Girl flowered early), and honestly, I was unimpressed. I looked at it as maybe I didn't let it dry long enough. I have a ritual of washing all my outdoor grown herb which has generally tended to cause things to dry a tad quicker than what one would expect in the field. I walked away from this initial experience like boy I hope I screwed that up and it works better on round 2. Round 2 >> Cream & Cheese CBD ... I think this girl did more to confuse me than anything else. The buds were not oversized but she seemed to take forever to dry. Part of this is probably attributable to excess humidity in the first few days - a weird week - we actually had some rain which is very unusual. But even after a week of drying I only managed 63g of shake on this batch (via the Trimbag). I'm going WTF? Ahem.... I ended up with 269 grams of buds for my Cream & Cheese. After that 63 g shake by bag I added 165 g trim by hand... and I was seriously wondering why this bag thang existed. Turns out C&C was not a good example.... so don't let the bad things weigh you down. Round 3 >> Next came Northern Lights - and my attitude changed completely. I harvested 319g buds, but the initial run with Trimbag generated 144g trim which I followed with 186g hand trim. NL had very dense buds and large internodal spacing which made trimming EZ. She was a monster… but at the same time I had her trimmed in under 4 hours. Of all the beasties I grew outdoors this summer, this was the largest yield for a single plant - but trimming her was a relative breeze, and it felt like it. I thought I hit the sweet spot for maybe how dry the herb needed to be for the product to work well… but probably only partially correct. Plant structure is significant. Round 4 >> Next came round 2 with Amnesia. As I noted in my diary I knew I was going to end up with a pound of herb on this particular strain so I tried to beat this particular batch up to minimize my hand trimming and see what the effect was. The end result of this was that I generated a smaller amount of buds from the larger sized pot (Little Girl was in a 10 gallon container and generated 235g buds/ 360g trim and Big Girl was in a 15 gallon container that generated 223g buds/ 493g trim). Round 5 >> Next came where we’re at in this here diary…Purple Berry Kush. Now originally I wasn’t sure I wanted to run this baby thru the mill. I THOUGHT that maybe because I hadn’t topped this girl and I didn’t put her in a pot bigger than 7 gallons which put her at a direct disadvantage vs my other outdoor girls that the yield would be substantially smaller, but I’ll be damned she ended up with 212g buds. Very satisfied there… and this stuff smells great when I let her get some air. The key here on trimming for this round was twofold. I let the buds dry longer than I normally would have by a few days… because I had nothing pushing me to make space for reason A… and because stuff was intervening for reason B… golf tournament… Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in SF (Robert Plant was awesome - we share the same birthday and he was 71 in August - I can only hope I’m still rockin’ that hard in 9 years)…you know - stuff. PBK ended up working out the best of all. 212g buds vs 181g trim. That’s the ONLY variant that ended up with more buds than trim. Part of that was how easy PBK was to maintain. I only did ONE major pruning of internal growth - probably later than I should have - I was trying hard to let her grow as wild as possible. But she was very easy to prune fan leaves off when that purple time came. It’s seems clear at this point that indica’s are easier to trim than sativa’s with a Trimbag…. but I’m not sure that’s going to be a revelation to anyone. As far as I’m concerned, anything that grows with an inter-nodal spacing that allows you to neatly separate your buds will work better with the Trimbag. DRY is a necessary ingredient for using this device. Probably drier than I am accustomed to… but that’s why somebody invented Boveda packs right? Anyway… I’m a VERY SATISFIED Trimbag customer at this point. It takes a little work to determine how dry your herb needs to be but even if you have to experiment, the number of hours you save from hand trimming will eventually make it worth your while… and as a newly minted senior citizen I can say that while my time might be free - anything that helps reduce pain - including time spent trimming - becomes quite significant. NOW —> The other side of this coin is that I will probably NOT use the Trimbag when I get back to indoor growing in early December… because I expect to be growing much smaller plants. Most of the things I’ve grown indoors top out at less than a couple ounces so it’s not clear to me that Trimbag is necessary with a yield that small… but I can test that theory later this winter. ================================================= hehe… I kinda promised myself “no more winter crops” after last summers bounty but I found that making edibles consumes a significant quantity of herb, and I really like my brownies. So now that I’ve stocked up to solve that problem, I plan to get back to some indoor growing (because growing is FUN)… mainly autoflowers. I actually have better control of temperature for things that I grow in winter as opposed to summer… but I have to add the heat to make that happen. That compares with the difficulty of adequate cooling if I run my lights during daytime in summer - even with night lights summer temps can be a problem with no AC. I don’t have AC in my house. It’s a function of California microclimates. If I lived 15 miles east of here - we’d BAKE with no AC (air conditioning). If it weren’t for coastal fog - this whole place would be a desert. With climate change - we’re heading that way even WITH the fog. We roll the dice here every winter and hope we get enough snow in the Sierra to hold off the firestorms that will come in the fall. We went thru a period of “drought” here in California a relatively short while back but even though we are officially out of our drought phase the fall firestorm intensity seems to be getting worse every year. But this is a clear sign I’ve consumed too much indica for one evening and I’m starting to lose track of.... just about everything. Anyhow… I think I’m about diaried out for this year. I have a pretty freaking serious vacation planned to celebrate my retirement for late next month… Las Vegas golf > Joshua Tree National Park camping > Palm Desert resort golf > Beach camping South Carlsbad > Torrey Pines golf > Laguna Beach > Pismo Beach camping > Monterey. It’s been about 30 years since I did anything this crazy (and that was a Grateful Dead tour in 1987 thru Arizona/Utah/California for my 30th birthday). Big difference this time around? Cannabis is LEGAL for the entire trip. I will be well stocked enough to sedate anything that gets near me. See y’all in December. 😎

This strain of Kings kush is a smelly one, I still can put my finger on the terp profile yet. Almost a kushy herby dank is all I can describe atm. Growing these plants, I would suggest pruning every second node once you get her into flower since the bugs tend to push up against each other and may cause bud rot. Say ontop of defoliation and try to qork on them on a daily basis rather than lolipoping. Another key thing is to keep rH in range during flower, I will recomend to set it to 40-50rh in flower. Also if you are growing outdoors, Be sure to cover them up during rain when in flowering, I uses a transparent tarp for the last 5 weeks of flower. Save my plants from 9 huge rain events during the last 5 weeks, my plants would of died from br. This strain had some decent cold resistance also! She stay alive with with few events of temps getting down to 4 deg c.

The buds on this herercane have a lot of those little round leaves in them. I'm not a fan of the visual or the challenge it presents in trimming. Hope others trying this strain get some better phenos. If not, then Herercane wont be sticking around...I gave the girls a flush and a complete water change this week. That was only the second water change they have had this grow. I have just been letting them drink the reservoir almost empty and then filling it up with fresh nutes. The 5 plants are drinking about 4 gallons a day combined. Been running AC when the lights are on and the dehumidifier 24 hours a day. All of the plants are showing some decent trichome production. Running 1/2 tsp maxibloom and 1/8 tsp beastie bloomz per gallon every time I add water. Seems to be keeping everyone happy.

395g from 2 autoflowers and boy is it the FUNK. My house smells like the strongest OG kush imaginable from p2 and p1 is already starting to get extremely citrus smelling in its jars. Great job mephisto.

Well you can see this little girl is quickly starting to grow up now that I have given her the space and nutrients to do so. I FIMed at the 5th node and will LST in the coming days. Right now she is growing roots I will give them some rooting growth hormones to speed up the process. Aloe Vera Juice is packed with silica, micronutrients and improves overall cell strength and plant vigor plus root and growth hormones, lets see what this does to the little girl.

Both Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) plants have developed well and carry hefty top buds on each side branch and also the main cola. The lower regions also carry buds, but those are a little more fluffy and not so big and dense as the top buds. In total the two plants harvested 91,3 grams. Every bud is COVERED IN TRICHOMES and the plants glisten in the light, they are FROSTY AS HELL! The plants have a STRONG AROMA now, which is sweet and peachy with hints of sandalwood. They smell ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and the dried weed carries the flavor of this aroma also in the smoke! VERY PEACHY! All in all I can only recommend this strain, its not the biggest yielder, but definitely delivers connoisseur grade weed. Hats off to Mat from House of the Great Gardener in Canada, he has made another GREAT cross and I hope he will release this variety soon! 👍😍😎.

Finally got my blue dream from seedsman. Winner of the contest seeds of knowledge Here it is finally growing this beautiful lady I gotta say this one was almost broken, it arrived very well but since it was hidden as requested when I open the box with a razor to take out the seeds Packs my bad accidentally cut a tiny side of the seed Shell which I noticed and place into germination and now she is here with us and we are very happy to welcome her to our family Day 1 Tuesday Place into germination Fully at dark until next morning from 8AM Started to get light since she is a photoperiod At the end of the Day went and hid it in a box very well so its dark Day 2 Same process took her out and start again sunny Day for her indoors of course Day 3 Thursday finally got her showing its cotyledons doing the same process :3 And im guessing it goes with the sun At the end of the Day got to give her enough darkness she is a feminized seeds which I have to make her flower after idk some time so I will try and see how much she can grow and get STRESS for yield and potency, thanks a lot for your support Happy Friday btw 👽🌱 **** DAY 5 My girl is a monster and needs to recover Taproot was coming out of peatmoss and I didnt even notice so had to transplant to a Bigger pot soon, since she is not an auto she is way too fast cuz taproot was out in the bottom so I had to take the net out of the Peat moss so roots van expand comfortably but accidentally broke the tiny edge while sliding with lil to no pressure and it sucks but it was stuck and it was either that or just plant it like that but well probably I should have left her be but anyways she is young I think she will develop more since she is in a better soil mix now than just Peat moss, wish me luck cuz I really hope she is better and gets to grow huge, we will see at the process right This is whats all about Lets do our best tho We will! Enjoy & happy growing everyone ☺️
