Week 5 – Balanced Bloom & Nutrient Adjustment (16 Oct – 23 Oct) Budshot Betty keeps pushing forward in mid-bloom. The canopy is full and even, and the buds are starting to bulk up nicely. I kept the light at 100W / 32cm, which gives her great intensity without any stress signs. At the start of the week she received plain water (2.7 L) to reset the medium a bit and let the roots breathe. After that, I returned to her regular feeding but slightly modified the mix because I noticed a few small rust spots on some leaves. Since I can’t check pH directly, I decided to lower the nutrient strength by about 25% from the manufacturer’s chart. Current feed (2.7 L water): • Iguana Juice Bloom – 3 ml/L • Ancient Earth OG Organics – 2 ml/L • Big Bud OG Organics – 1.5 ml/L • CalMag (BioBizz) – 1 ml/L She looks healthy and vibrant again — the rust hasn’t spread, and the leaves stay strong and green. The buds are swelling, pistils multiplying, and the smell is getting more intense every day. Overall, a calm and balanced week focused on stability and prevention rather than pushing too hard.

Day 63 One of the Moby Dick it's not doing that great in fact since I stunt them early on she never came back very good either way it's not going to get that much as the other one unfortunately. but they seem to be maturing very fast I do not think they will pass the 12 week before being fully ready trichomes are already becoming some cloudy. The blue amnesia seems to be getting fatter everyday packing on weight and trichomes Thank you for reading and have a happy grow Day 67 the Moby Dicks seem to be doing very well one of the plans seems to be maturing a week or more faster meaning I might cut them down at different times depending on readiness of the trichomes the smell is still very sweet and fruity. the tallest of the Moby Dick grow to 40 inch the other one plant it is only 34 inch . The blue amnesia seems to be also doing very well the tallest of the plants is it is 46.5 in and the other plant reaches up to 45 in . currently I'm trying to lower the temperature of my tent during the 4 hours of night. That they are enjoying but it's not so easy to release all the Heat and try to lower the temperature to see some effect and color but I will continue to attempt this in order to have some awesome looking buds the only thing I have to have lots of care not lowering temperature too much and shocking my plants hurting the root system because of this and the four hours are a short period To achieve this it is very challenging I also noticed that the plants don't like any nitrogen at this point in flowering. Day 68 this is probably the last time I will feed the Moby Dicks from (16 liters total / 10 mililitros of Flora bloom. 5 mililitros liquid koolbloom. 6 mililitros Flora nectar and no nitrogen of any kind the plants don't seem to like it) here now I'm probably just going to do plain water at the right pH and maybe some of the cleaning product at the very end .from g hydroponic.Have a happy grow

It's time for the outdoor flower stage from a 4 week veg, these girls has mature really strong and have took to its transplant like champs. At this point it's all about monitoring there growth and any deficiencies and on my part patience. Feed skip a day then water then feed then water, y'all get the pattern.

I finally installed my net, I love how easy it becomes to bend or acommodate branches. it makes harder the watering part but is justifiable. this will be the second week of flowering and all is looking great Happy grows

This week they climbed about 7 inches. I’m in love with these girls. They’re a lot of fun to watch. They’re so uniform and wholesome I can’t stop staring at them. I just watered yesterday with just 6.3 ph water. I realized I was using too much veg fert. so I kept that out of my feeding for this week. I thought it said tbs instead of tsp so I was using way too much. They seem happy though so I think I’m ok. Other than that, I’m excited to see how much they grow this week.

Day 63 flowering: Well here we have it Growmies. 63 days of Marsian sunshine and plenty of enriching feeds and we have reached the crux point. The Strawberry Cola finished beautifully and was taken out 4 days ago. She has been in the dark along with the Monster mash who went in yesterday. Both girls had begun to show amber trichromes with the scope so we're ripe for pulling . More on those with ther harvest reports . Herz Og looks so edible right now . she still has clear trichromes around and no real signs of amber ones to concern me.yet. A few more days should see her finish perfectly I hope. She isnt a huge plant but the quality on close up is amazing. I am now only using water until she finished to leech through the Dragon force to avoid any after taste in rhe buds. We are getting to the best bit now but also the hardest part . The waiting to dry and not rushing it is always the most difficult part for me.lol Enjoy the pics and I will catch you on the harvest reports. Be safe and free growmies UPDATE ##### The final lady is now hanging with her stable mates for a low and slow dry. The dark period had her sweating more oils for sure too so she needs to benleft alone to dry them into her buds now as she dries. shebfinishwd perfectly. Next update will be harvest hopefully soon. watch this space!!!!

These Thunderfucks were planted outside, early may. They survived a dynamic spring and didn't grow in full potential. Still they thrived on their own and produced solid purple/green buds. Very smelly, a multilayered odeurscape with nuts, citrus, gassy and mint. A characteristic modern autohybrid with solid genetics. One plant developed budrot in one bud. I was early and saved the plant. I drycure it apart from the others tough. Reason is the dense budgrowth and a full day of rain followed bij some cloudy days. I tried to shake the buds dry from water but didn't succeed completely. Plants were on their end and I was pushing them, still hoping for some sunny days. Well sun came back but too late for that branch on plant 3, the only plant who didn't turn purple and has the most minty smell. Plants needed close observation and LST/defoliation, not a very easy grow but very rewarding in yield and pure fun. At the end this is a very characteristic premium plant, gave me lots of fun and only a small portion of diva behaviour. Recommended.

Хотелось побыстрее, а получилось как всегда 😄 К 38 дню от каски растишка только показала пол, и вошла в стадию предцвета, поэтому начало цветения ожидаю на следующей неделе. В остальном же всё прекрасно, кушает хорошо, я постепенно повышаю дозу базовых удобрений, и видимо дойду до табличных значений AN. upd. Конец недели, убрал все растяжки - к началу цветения готовы. 😎 Спасибо, что заглянули, и будьте здоровы! 🙏 Продолжение следует ...😶

Day 8 - First official day of veg and both ladies are looking good and on schedule for a couple of changes. Nutrients: 10ml of Hydro A & Hydro B were added to both buckets (10L of water in each bucket) PH: the Milwaukee PH controller was set to work - starting at a PH of around 7.6 - 7.8, it slowly worked down to a perfect 6.0 over about 50minutes. Lights: The lights were readjusted to be 60cm from the seedlings who are all between 8-10cm tall and the intensity of the lights were increased to about 70% brightness. Day 9 - Both plants are taking nicely to the adjustments and I am happy with the progress. Temp and humidity are stable and PH is controlled. Day 11 - The second nodes are clearly visible today for both Chong and Max which would hopefully put them at 3 nodes by the end of the week - right on schedule! Day 13 - The ladies seem to be showing some signs of heat stress, so thinking about adjusting the lights after their period of dark today because they are due to be adjusted tomorrow anyway for the new week of veg

Frostbanger Plants 1-6 Week 8 May 18– 24 FLOWER 4 Nutrients : GH Micro 25 ml GH Gro 10 ml GH Bloom 30ml CalMag 30 ml Recharge 10ml Green sensation 16.5ml Power buds 7.5 ml 5/17 PH 6.3, PPM 1130, temp 71 1ltr each 5/18 PH 6.67, PPM 935, temp 68.5 1 ltr each 5/20 PH 6.67, PPM 1330, temp 68.5 2 ltr each 5/21 PH 6.66, PPM 984, temp 69 1 ltr each videos & pics 5/17 Defoliation of yellowing leaves, feed, pics As I mentioned last week, I must monitor and control the tent environment manually. For the past month, the humidifier has been an issue putting out way too much humidity; often leaving water in the bottom of the tent. In addition, the temperatures are also out of control. I added an AC last week to keep the temperature below 80. I finally determined the exhaust vent is also broken and has been for some time. AC Infinity does not extend the warranty to the replacement parts. I guess that makes sense since they would be in a state of perpetual free replacements. I bought a new one from Amazon that came with a new controller which is different from the controller 69 currently using. I decided that while it is very inconvenient and inefficient to monitor the tent through the day, I would rather finish this Frostbanger run without introducing a new unknown variable. I will continue using 3 circulating fans, the 4” exhaust vent from my 3x3. I have the AC pushing air in and the exhaust pulling air out. This creates a neutral pressure tent environment-neither positive nor negative. It looks like growth has stopped and plant height has been reached. Now is the time for buds to fatten and frost up. All 6 of them are short remaining less than 3 ft. They range from 15 to 31 inches. #4, 5 &6 are showing some fade, particularly #4. Upon opening the tent, a melon smell comes off the buds if I get close, and more stickiness was observed during the process of defoliation. They are living up to the new strain’s name. #5 is the frostiest followed by #2. Wow week 3 of flower and that much frost already. Before FastBuds announced the strain name and characteristics, I was disappointed that FBA2502 could be an indica sleepy strain but the universe provides what you need at the time. The new strain profile indicates a whopping 29%THC with mainly sativa uplifting, euphoric, social effects with sweet fruity flavors which I love and enjoy. In addition, I recently bought a dap press and this strain is frosty and resinous. She will be great to press for live rosin. FBA2502 is FROSTBANGER. Meet Frostbanger Auto, an autoflowering and Indica-leaning hybrid packing a staggeringly high THC content averaging 29%, making this one of the most potent strains on the market. It was created by Fast Buds through crossbreeding Gorilla Glue and Chemdawg, two equally iconic strains. Growers must know that these difficult-to-grow plants will pose specific challenges in terms of environmental control and nutrition, making them best suited for cultivators with some experience under their belt. The flowering cycle is short, averaging only 50 days, and yields are usually around 300g/m². The Frostbanger Auto flavor and aroma are both mouthwatering with a delightful combination of sweet, fruity, and flowery notes. The high is mainly Sativa-driven with uplifting and happiness-inducing effects that lead to euphoria and a general sense of well-being. You might feel sociable and talkative, but too spacey to say something. Following this surge of energy comes a deepening sense of relaxation, leaving you sedated and completely at ease with the world. Due to its potency and these long-lasting effects, medical patients hail Frostbanger Auto for treating chronic pain, stress, and even depression. Measurements: #1 15” #2 20” #3 17” #4 30” #5 31” #6 24” Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

FBT 2309 grew great. Really nice aroma of a sweet, herbal, earthy, cream smell. Loaded with trichromes, and a nice purple hue to buds. Growing with the Gen1:11 nutrition was a bit tougher in dwc. I am getting the hang of it. Beside some minor ph issues and feeds being too strong the plant did great. The Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 also worked great for the grow. I am eager to try it once it is out of the cannatrol. Thank you Fast Buds, Gen1:11, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Happy new year.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la quinta semana de floración de estas Rainbow Melon feminizada de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros. Tenían algo de shock por el trasplante pero ya fue solucionado. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨
