Moderately easy to grow, just another cannabis plant but she did start getting prettier near the end of flowering. She was 14 inches tall (LST) & had 52 bud sites. Trimming was pretty easy, not too many leaves. She did hermie, my first one ever. It didn't start until later sometime in flowering. I inspect each plant 1 time per week, I only seen 2 spots where she threw male parts. Disappointing hermie. I can't for sure say that this is a ILGM strain (so don't think if you buy this seed from them it'll hermie too). My cousin gave me this seed & told me it was Gold Leaf from ILGM... I have doubts it is GL after grow & harvest due to the other grows/pics/descriptions online because it looked nothing like other GL grows. I know phenos can vary but I believe ILGM to have quality steady genetics which shouldn't differ this much. I'll try more ILGM seeds in the future & I'll purchase them directly from them to be certain.

Fruity Pebbles autoflower is growing great I the Athena blended line nutrition. She is starting to go into a bulking stage. She has a layer of frost started. Everything is looking good.

ENGLISH VERSION BELOW Wie ich im letzten Update geschrieben habe, fällt dieses hier etwas größer aus und enthält auch mehr Fotos und Videos. Die Pflanzen haben sich gut entwickelt, waren aber mittlerweile zu groß für ihre kleinen Töpfe und zeigten Anzeichen von Wurzelstress. Ich habe sie daher in 9-Liter-AirPots umgetopft, die ich noch von einem alten Projekt übrig hatte. Als Substrat verwende ich eine 70/30-Mischung aus Canna Coco Professional und Peligran Perlite von Knauf. Ich liebe dieses Zeug – man kann es praktisch nicht überwässern. Die Wurzelballen habe ich mit etwas Mycotrex von Biotabs bestreut. (Mycorhizzae) Um ehrlich zu sein: Ich war einfach zu faul, neue Stofftöpfe zu kaufen, also dachte ich mir, warum nicht die alten AirPots wiederverwenden :-) Mal sehen, wie sie sich darin machen. Ich habe die Pflanzen auch in ihre „endgültige“ Umgebung gestellt – ein 120x120-Zelt (4×4 für meine imperialen Freunde ;-) – und ab jetzt werden sie über meinen geliebten Ebbe-/Flut Eigenbau versorgt. Ich habe es vor 10 Jahren gebaut, und es ist immer noch ein echter Segen. Einmal am Tag werden die Pflanzen mit Nährlösung aus einem 200-Liter-Tank (52 Gallonen) geflutet. Leider bedeutet das auch, dass ich euch nicht mehr sagen kann, wie viel Nährlösung jede Pflanze genau bekommt – sie nehmen sich einfach, was sie brauchen. Das neue Zelt wird mittels eines AC Infinity Controller 69 klimagesteuert, sodass ich die Bedingungen deutlich besser im Griff habe. Ich versuche, einen VPD von etwa 1,2 zu halten. Die Klimaanlage ist auf 22 °C (~71 °F) eingestellt und der Luftbefeuchter hält die Luftfeuchtigkeit bei etwa 62 %. Offtopic: Ich musste eine große Lemon Orange-Mutterpflanze räumen, um Platz für die vier Humboldt-Mädels zu schaffen. In den nächsten Tagen werde ich sie zurückschneiden müssen. Was demnächst ansteht: In den nächsten Tagen werde ich die Pflanzen toppen. Die abgeschnittenen Spitzen werde ich versuchen, als potenzielle Mütter zu bewurzeln – vielleicht ziehe ich ja ein DNA-Los :-). Meine Frage an euch diese Woche: Mit welchen Substraten und Bewässerungssystemen habt ihr schon herumexperimentiert – und was hat euch am meisten überzeugt? Schreibt es mir gerne in die Kommentare! _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As I wrote in last weeks update this one will be a bit bigger and contain more photos. The plants were coming along nicely but the were to big for their tiny pots and showed some root stress. I transplanted them into 9 Liter AirPots which I had laying around from an old project. The substrate is a 70/30 mix of Canna Coco Professional and Peligran Perlite from Knauf. I love this stuff. You basically can't overwater it. I sprinkled the root balls with some Mycotrex from Biotabs (Mycorhizzae) Tbh I wast just too lazy to buy new fabric pots so I thought why shouldn't I use these old AirPots :-) We'll see how they perform. I also placed the plants in their "final" habitat which is a 120x120 (4×4 for my imperial friends ;-) and from now on they get fed by my beloved DIY-Ebb and Flow system. I built this 10 years ago and it's still a charm to have. Once a day the plants will get "flooded" with nutrient solution from a 200 L (52 gallon) tank below. Unfortunately this also means I can't tell you how much nutrient solution they received anymore as they just take as much as they need. This tent is climate controlled by an AC Infinity controller 69 so I should be able steer them way better. I try to keep them at a VPD of around 1.2. I have my AC set to 22°C (~71°F) and my humidifier keeps the tent around 62%. Offtopic: I had to evict a big Lemon Orange Mom to make space for the 4 Humboldt girls. I will have to cut her back in the next days. Upcoming: I'm going to top them in the next few days I will try to keep the tops as potential mothers if I hit the DNA lottery :-). My question for you this week: With which substrates and watering systems have you messed around so far and what did you like the most? Please tell me in the comments

Week no.13 The Ice Cream Cake auto grows good. She build her Buds day for day... Bigger and Bigger. She is already so sticky , i never had any Strain what whas so sticky like she is actually. I am sure it is because i use the "Supplement" Lights ( I give more per Day ) And because i give her more P-K and the Nutrients from @xpertnutrients. Lets see when she will be finaly finish 18.11.2024: Is it time to chop? 17.11: Die Lady wächst immer noch.. Baut ihre Buds immer dichter und breiter! Ist deutlich mehr "sticky" geworden. Der Duft ist wie eine Sinfonie von einer verbotenen Liebe

First off this week found some spider mites have managed to get them all other than that week 3 of flower and were seeing a nice even canopy not the biggest of auto flower but has produced a good amount of bud sites. My other lady is budding nicely she looks like shes going to produce some rock hard nuggs update coming next week #automendo #monster genetics

she needs some nutrients desperately. needs a good watering too, but she's still coming along well i think. adding more compost because i dont want to overcorrect the deficiency. definitely have to clear the ground around her, but the mint around it shades the soil around the base so im leaving those. 7/24 - gave her a good watering and some bio bloom just to get some guaranteed essentials. the veggies around it are definitely hogging the nutrients but whatever, it be like that. upper leaves are kind of folded upwards, i imagine because of the heat (it was like this before giving any nutrients). gave her a neem oil mist bath to get rid of all the pests that are adding to the problem.

11/30: I harvested the first 6 today, flushed 5 more for the second time, and fed everybody else for the last time. I washed all the branches using the 4-step method ascribed by Doc Bud at High Times/420magazine and many other notable cannabis connoisseurs, with slight modifications: 4 x big plastic totes/bins 8 x ounces of 12% hydrogen peroxide (or 32 ounces of 3%) 2 x cups of concentrated lemon juice 2 x cups of baking soda 10 x gallons of water in each bin Unless your tap water stinks, you're safe to use tap water for the procedure, but I used an inline carbon hose filter to fill my buckets. Bin #1 - 10 gallons of water mixed with the hydrogen peroxide Bin #2 - 10 gallons of water mixed with the lemon juice and baking soda Bin #3 - 10 gallons of water as hot tap water Bin #4 - 10 gallons of cold tap water I was mainly concerned about removing as much lint and cat/dog hair as possible, but also rinsing off any residue left from all the various foliar applications of humic/fulvic acid, kelp, axiom, big bloom, and tiger bloom I did. First, I put my leaf blower on low speed and blasted my plants thoroughly, one at a time, replicating 50-60mph winds for about 10 seconds and watched as a whirlwind of debris and hair flew out the back door. Bud-washing: Pluck any necrotic plant material and any old fan leaves off while they're still on the plant. Then, take a handful of branches and submerge them in Bin #1 for about 30 seconds, agitating it, removing from water, submerging again, agitating, etc...then remove it and let it drip out for a few seconds...then repeat the process with Bins #2-4. Let it drip dry overnight with a little bit of airflow, then dry as you normally would...baskets, boxes, etc.. I hadn't watered these plants in a few days, so they were almost in draught, but after doing this procedure, they were fully hydrated(turgid) and seemed to have brighter colors than before. Nice!😍 12/1: The bottom part of the closet seems empty with only 9 plants in there.. 😟 I cut the harvested plants up and put them into drying baskets in the top of my closet with a small oscillating fan on. I've got the temperature fluctuating between 68f and 75f and the RH is staying between 48% and 52%. To do that, I had to take down the small light in the top of the closet to fit the drying baskets up there. So, I moved the 3 shorter plants still up there down to the bottom and put them on top of buckets. Now the bottom of the closet looks full again!😃 I'm anxious to finish up this grow so I can get busy growing the Fastbuds Fast Flowering Photo Testers!!! When I harvest the next 5, I'll flush the remaining plants really well and that will be all the flushing they'll get..I'll let them dry back out for a few days and harvest them. I've got to make some minor improvements to the garden (adding UV, blue and red/far red booster panels and intake fans) That should put me on track to start germinating them by mid-December if all goes well. 12/3: ...early a.m... The harvested plants are already dry!?!?? And have excellent texture??? Wow..bud washing is for real..roughly 48 hours after I hung them to drip dry, and 40 hours after I put them in baskets in 50% RH/70f conditions with moderate airflow...usually takes 4 or 5 days to get a good slow-dry in the same conditions, so I'm convinced that this must be attributed to the bud-washing procedure. I'm sold! Here's the talley so far: plant #1 - 115g (plus 13g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] plant #2 - 108g (plus 18g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] plant #3 - 119g (plus 15g larf) - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] plant #4 -  92g (plus 6g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] - the smallest plant in the main area plant #5 - 112g (plus 22g larf) - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] plant #6 -  75g (no larf) - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] - grown in upper area under 200w ...afternoon: I flushed 6 of the last 7 plants for the first time today and harvested 4 more of them. I washed them and hung them to dry.....my dripping wet bathing beauties!😍

She’s been stacking super fast and I think she may become the biggest and highest yielding plant I’ve grown thus far. Each cola has 3 nodes minimum. I love mephisto genetics. Beginning mid-flower nutes now. Flush pH 6.4, EC 0.33. Feed pH 6.5, EC 1.01.

8/10 Monday. 12:05AM FULL RETARD MODE ACTIVATED 8/10 MOnday - looking good needs water will ask Grok: For your Fast Buds autos (RF3s + Mendo Frost) at roughly week 5 in coco, target an incoming EC of about 1.2–1.6 mS/cm (roughly 600–800 ppm on the 500 scale). 8/11 4:30am 550 PPFD is solid for where those plants appear to be. Looking at the photo, you’ve got a clean, well-organized Spider Farmer tent with healthy-looking plants in fabric pots (plus the smaller one in the white pot). At 45 W per light (90 W total) and hitting ~550 µmol/m²/s, the efficiency is actually pretty good — modern diodes can deliver that intensity when the lights are relatively close and the footprint isn’t oversized. Quick context for that PPFD • Current stage (looks like mid-to-late veg on most of them): 450–650 is a strong sweet spot. You’re right in the middle. • You can push a bit higher (600–700+) if you want denser branching and tighter internodes, but 550 is already productive and lower-stress. • Once you flip to flower you’ll generally want to climb toward 700–900+ (depending on how the plants respond and whether you add CO₂). A few practical notes • Height & uniformity: At only 90 W total, the distance from the canopy is doing a lot of the work. If the outer edges or lower plants are noticeably dimmer, you may need a slight height adjustment or to rotate pots so everything stays even. • Heat: 76 °F and 48 % RH is comfortable. With only 90 W you’re not fighting heat. • Dimming headroom. The plants look happy — good color, no obvious light stress or stretch. You’re in a good place. If you want to share the exact model of the lights or the tent size, I can give more specific height/PPFD targets. 8/11 2:29PM these lights are so efficient and so good that I had to turn the electricity back each light is now down to about 40 W each so 80 instead of 90 Ish. I didn’t check the PPFD rating so I don’t know what the light measurements actually are, but I know keeping them at 40 each so a total of 80 W is very good. I raised the lights out there about 12 inches maybe a little bit more about 14 inches high off the top of the plant but doing good so far my EC was 1004 on whatever scale that is I’m using from 900 to 1.2 is what was recommended for EC. 8/ 10:48 AM I don’t really remember how to use those art supplies but my plants are starting to look nice and bonsai. One of them will be shaped like a snake. It’s gonna look really good and self supporting. The other ones are pretty good. These are gonna be a nice decorative grow. I should get a lot out of them too starting to flower fast buds always has the greatest staff. I mean there their plants are always the best. They respond so well to everything, especially all my mistakes they always recover. 8/13 12:47AM The two that are a touch pale are probably the ones you’re noticing. In coco that’s usually one of three things: Mild nitrogen hunger (common once they start really taking off) Cal-Mag demand ramping up (especially under LED) Or just the natural variation between the RF3 and the Mendo Frost phenotypes A light Cal-Mag bump or a small nitrogen nudge is the smart move. Don’t jump on it hard — just enough to bring the color back without pushing them into dark green and locking out other things. You’re already dialed in enough that a gentle correction should fix it quick. 👻👽 Your light setup is the real story though. Running two Mars Hydro TS1000s at ~40 W each instead of one at 80–90 W is a classic low-heat efficiency play. Same total photons, way better distribution, and almost zero heat load. That’s why you’re getting this kind of growth with almost no thermal stress. The plants are loving the gentle, even intensity. Dropping from 45 W to 40 W each was the right call — 45 was just enough to start pushing them. 👻👽

-LST is doing great,she adapted and responded well to any kind of lightly stress -i started to use a full tea spoon of molasses every water and she seems to enjoy it.

This lady just like her sisters have the exact same height, same size, same leaves oh guys I'm excited about my Runtz muffin by Barney's Farm for this 2021 outdoor season!!! This is gonna be a beautiful year, the plants are only getting water because I'm about to transplant them into their big pots, let's see how this stunning strain by Barney's develop under the Mediterranean sun although there are still some cloudy days on may. Stay tuned growmies, this is gonna be fun!!

July 11: hail storm went through this afternoon and did some damage. Happened very fast, and was the next day after a big storm caused some flooding in the city and made the news.

12/12 stretching

Photoperiod buds 🤩 The smell is absolutely divine very fruity,sweet & tropical🍋🍊🍉🍌 Solid like a diamond 💎 Bay harbor butcher’s trim to show the density

Letzte Woche letzte LST und eine letzte EC 2,3 vegi calmag Lösung dann die Blüte in 7 Tagen max vielleicht in 4

The smell is really good from this girl…looking forward to harvest lol.

Sponsored grow 👉WeedSeedsExpress👈 Harvest Love Potion grew in my AC Infinity 4x4 with 4 other plants. I harvested her April 12, 90 days after germination. Love Potion demonstrated strong resistance to mold, bud rot and pests. Based on her appearance of burnt and curled leaves, she did not recover after overfeeding then flushing in mid growth cycle. I trained her hard by topping her twice and tie downs to all limbs. Even though Love Potion is an auto, she seemed to tolerate this stressful training. Because of the mix of strains growing in the tent, no smell was discernable. Now as it hangs by herself, she smells fruity and sweet. Love Potion remained under 2 feet tall after topping. Even without topping, she would remain short. This would make Love Potion very good strain for small closet grows. Love Potion grew without difficulty or issues. Produced a nice outcome. Wet weight 358g. Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Thank you @WeedSeedsExpress for this opportunity to grow your strains. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

My papapayton is coming along nicely. It’s a strong plant from our the door. I think I transplanted my plants a little too early this time and caused a little stewed growth this past week. They grew a decent amount but I can tell I did some root damage and I over watered at trasplant. Even with all my mistakes the plants still look great and healthy. Every plant from fastbuds so far has had the best resistance to stress. I’m excited to see this one come along
