Sky steht jetzt da wie jemand, der gerade einen radikalen Frühjahrsputz hinter sich hat: weniger Arme, dafür deutlich mehr Ausstrahlung. Man sieht sofort: Hier mussten Triebe gehen. Viele sogar. Platzmangel, Luftzirkulation, Vernunft, die klassische Grower-Entscheidung zwischen Herz und Schere. Ergebnis: ein deutlich aufgeräumtes Gerüst mit Fokus auf die Top-Triebe, die jetzt alle schön im Licht stehen wie VIPs auf der Gästeliste. Und die Buds? Die haben in Woche 4 endgültig beschlossen, keine Theorie mehr zu sein. Die Colas strecken sich nach oben, dicht besetzt mit weißen Stempeln, die mittlerweile nicht mehr „Hallo“ sagen, sondern „Bleib noch ein paar Wochen“. Die Buds sind klar länger geworden, beginnen sich übereinander zu stapeln und wirken jetzt richtig säulenartig. Keine Kugeln mehr, das sind jetzt ernstzunehmende Blütenstände. Harzproduktion ist sichtbar angezogen: ein feiner, gleichmäßiger Frost legt sich über die Zuckerblätter. Noch kein Zuckerschock, aber eindeutig der Moment, in dem man nach dem Anfassen der Pflanze unauffällig an den Fingern riecht. Die unteren Bereiche sind deutlich luftiger, man merkt, dass die Energie jetzt konsequent nach oben geht. Genau so, wie man es in Woche 4 sehen will: weniger Drama unten, mehr Geschäft oben.

This week was fun, had nutrient lockout on the one plant some signs on others. Decided to flush from the top with two plants which is a terrible idea with autopots; the minerals build up in the soil and all I did was wash them down. The plant that was looking the worse had some lower branches die after this so I cut them out. Reached out to autopot and they were a huge help, flushed from the Rez and then brought my nutrients way down. I only just got an ec meter but I was at 3200 ppm when I started the flush and 150 by the time I added nutrients back in. The two plants that I flushed from the top aren’t in great shape but they’re still alive, only 2 more weeks to go so hopefully this didn’t have too much of an impact on quality!

Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of flowering. Things are going well in here. I've got powdery mildew in the garden on the squash plant leaves but not in here yet. I was hoping when I crossed these strains that they would be pm resistant. When I made these seeds 2 years ago the Amnesia Lemon didn't have any pm even when other plants had it in the same room. And the Northern Lights has been pest resistant in the past. Thought these strain would go good together. Has a very nice sweet, citrus, hard candy, smell to them. I've cut down the male Lemnesia that I was crossing with the Pink Kush and Nova OG and put it in the compost. I hoping these seeds will be pm resistant too. The pm is in this part of the world and I have to deal with it so why not make seeds that are pm resistant. Makes sense to me. OK, Have Fun. Chuck.

Strain: Fast Buds – Banana Purple Punch Auto RF3 (2 Plants – Purple & Orange Pheno) Grow Type: Indoor Pot Size: 4 Gallon Fabric Pots Medium: Coco Coir Nutrient Line: Athena Harvest Log These two were a pleasure to run from start to finish. Even though they were relatively small. After harvest, the plants were hung to dry for about 12 days before moving them into jars for curing. The buds dried really well and trimmed really nice as well I did end up taking a test smoke and wow… these two are STRAIGHT ⛽️⛽️. Definitely some high-AF buds 🤣. Even early in the cure they’re already smoking smooth. Overall this was a really great run, especially considering the plants didn’t grow very large. Sometimes the smaller plants still surprise you with quality over quantity, and that’s exactly what happened here. I’m definitely running Banana Purple Punch RF3 again in the future. Drying Conditions 🌡️ Temperature: 20–22°C 💧 Humidity: 55–60% ⏱️ Dry Time: 12 Days Another solid run in the books 🔥 Don’t forget to use my code ISLANDT for 15% off at Fast Buds 🌱

I started with three Blackberry Moon Rock seeds, and two of them sprouted – awesome! These girls are loving life, reaching for the sky as the tallest plants in my tent. They're already about six inches tall, and they're taking up all the nutrients very well without any nute burn. Both blackberry moonrocks plants are very similar height although they have very different looks to them. The one of the 2 definitely going ti strech alot more than the other. One has internodes about 1 cm apart rn and the other is about 3/4 to 1 inch between nodes. Happy late turkey day grow diaries world!!!! It's now day 24 from seed for all the seedlings I have going. The past few days the plants have really started to take off. There roots have really started to dig in. Every other water I am still giving 2ml per gal of fox farm grow big. I keep having to tell myself not to add any more nutes other than that. I don't want to fry my plants but I also want they to start jumping. I'm quite excited for the coming week, I think the next 7 days or so is when the plant really starts to transform and look more like a pot plant than just some random little green thing. A few days ago I decided to move the plants from under my 55w cheep amazon light to under my spider farmer 100w newer version light with the good leds in it. The plants will hopefully be ready to up pot them here soon and get them in the large tent. Sometimes when growing multiple different strains it can be really hard to balance giving to much or to little light. You don't want the faster growing plants to get to stretched out waiting on the slower plants to catch up I spend Thanksgiving day morning transplanting the plants into 2gal pots. I am useing spme promix potting soil it's my 1st time tring this soil. It is actually doing really well the roots were all white and nice looking. I think next time I'm going to add some worm casting, kelp, granular mycos, and a little bit extra perlite. I just didn't have the money with christmas coming to splurge for all the extra stuff. I got rid of 2 plants 1 of the bubble og and 1 skunk apple runtz. There is only room for 10 pots in the 2x4 tent. I will peob only bring 8 of them to flower, always good to have back ups. Yesterday I also stuck the plants back under the 500w medicgrow mini sun 2 in my 2x4 tent. They did great under it the 2nd half the day I was happy they didn't get stressed. I had put them under that light a little early about 10 days ago or so. I am expecting in a week these plants will ge going crazy with growth

Wenn eine Autoflower beschließt, alle Regeln neu zu schreiben Ich glaube langsam, diese Mango Cherry Runtz hat die Anleitung für Autoflower einfach übersprungen. Was hier Woche für Woche passiert, ist selbst für mich beeindruckend. Der Stretch scheint inzwischen sein Ende zu finden, doch genau in diesem Moment beginnt die Pflanze erst richtig zu zeigen, wozu sie fähig ist. Aus nahezu jedem Internodium entwickeln sich kräftige Blütenstände. Überall schießen frische weiße Blütenfäden hervor und die ersten Buds beginnen langsam miteinander zu verschmelzen. Aus den einzelnen Blütenansätzen entsteht Stück für Stück eine zusammenhängende Cola-Struktur. Besonders begeistert mich die Architektur dieser Pflanze. Trotz ihrer enormen Höhe bleibt sie erstaunlich offen aufgebaut. Licht erreicht selbst tiefere Bereiche der Pflanze und die Luft kann problemlos durch das gesamte Blätterdach zirkulieren. Genau diese Kombination aus Größe, Struktur und Vitalität macht den Unterschied. Im RDWC-System scheint sie sich absolut wohlzufühlen. Das kräftige Wachstum, die vitalen Blätter und die enorme Anzahl an Blütenansätzen zeigen eindrucksvoll, wie gut Genetik und Hydroponik zusammenarbeiten können. Ehrlich gesagt fällt es schwer, sich immer wieder daran zu erinnern, dass es sich hier um eine Autoflower handelt. Die Pflanze entwickelt sich eher wie eine riesige photoperiodische Sativa mit endloser Energie. Wenn die Blüten in den nächsten Wochen anfangen richtig Masse aufzubauen, könnte das etwas ganz Besonderes werden. FastBuds hat hier offensichtlich nicht einfach nur eine weitere Sorte entwickelt. Sie haben eine Genetik geschaffen, die eindrucksvoll zeigt, welches Potenzial moderne Autoflower heute besitzen können. Ich freue mich riesig auf die kommenden Wochen. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When an Autoflower Decides to Rewrite the Rules At this point, I honestly think this Mango Cherry Runtz never read the rulebook for autoflowers. Week after week she continues to surprise me. The stretch now appears to be coming to an end, but instead of slowing down, she's entering the stage where her true potential starts to unfold. Almost every single node is producing vigorous flower sites. Fresh white pistils are appearing everywhere, and the individual bud sites are beginning to connect into long, continuous colas stretching across the branches. One thing I absolutely love is her plant structure. Despite her incredible size, she remains surprisingly open. Light penetrates deep into the canopy while airflow moves freely throughout the entire plant—exactly the kind of architecture every grower hopes for. She clearly feels at home in the RDWC system. The explosive growth, vibrant foliage, and incredible number of flower sites perfectly demonstrate what happens when outstanding genetics meet an optimized hydroponic environment. To be honest, it's becoming difficult to remember that this is actually an autoflower. She behaves more like a giant photoperiod sativa with endless energy than what most people would expect from an automatic variety. If the flowers begin stacking serious weight over the coming weeks, this plant has the potential to become something truly spectacular. FastBuds didn't simply release another autoflower with this one. They created a cultivar that showcases just how far modern autoflower genetics have evolved. I genuinely can't wait to see what she'll look like a few weeks from now. 🌱💚

July 20: smoke arrived this morning to go with our heat wave. Awesome. Extra watering, misting air, and wetting the sides of the grow bags with hose water to keep things cooler and hydrated. So far so good in the heat. Did foliar spray of Extreme Blend and potassium silicate. Also note that for all my grows I use apple cider vinegar for pH adjustment and a Dr Bronners liquid soap as a wetting agent (surfactant). Euphoria is doing great, but to ensure that it finishes early enough for this latitude (53N) where the UV light gets very weak after mid-August, I’m starting the force flowering tonight. Already starting to flower but I want a strong flower set and as much flower growth under strong sunlight as possible. Force flowering schedule is 2-3 weeks of in dark garage at 9 pm followed by 730 nm far red light and then back out at 7 am. The light initiates dark mode 2 h faster so it’s like having a 26 h day. Good trick use as a bloom booster, also moves up the finish 2-4 weeks. So, 10+2 is 12 h dark and 14 h daylight. Might sound bogus but it works. July 21: first night of force flowering caused a big stretch. Notably stretched after darkness in hot garage overnight. Hot outside overnight too but was much hotter inside garage and recorded here as 24 C. Seems okay and high overnight temperature might be ideal at this early flowering stage. Warm overnight temperatures continue for a few more days. July 22: record hot overnight low forecast for tonight of 24 C and feels like 27 C with humidity. Wow, that is really incredible for here and 13 C above historic average. July 26: six days into flowering and she is doing fine. 👍👍

9/26 This fucking sucks. Site won't let me upload pictures. Flood warning in effect. I believe this is the fifth day of rain. Not trickles. Sheet rain and high winds. My dream catchers have been taking this like a champ. Ice cream cake was totally sideways for awhile despite vertical trellis. I came down this morning to branches bent at 90° angles. I could've taken them but if I make it through this rain today it's supposed to stop tonight. Then I'll have a week of good weather. Buds are exploding. Even the ice cream cake. That will need more time but I'm getting close with the others. They are never out of sight. I'm surprised they've held up so well so far. I made my decision it would be stupid to alter it now, seeing how the storm is ending. I was going to spray k bicarb but I'll wait until after this rain.UPDATE: Went back over and the garden was flooded. I needed to put one grow bag on top of another as one plant was in six inches of water. I drained it and added supports and pulled off any dead leaves. I tried taking a video but it was raining so hard it stopped after 7 secs. Luckily my dreamcatchers are strong AF. Took to little ones and put them under the barn under a light. It's FINALLY stopped raining. After I smoke I gotta go back over and shake buds again and check for rot. Luckily nothing was broken but it was hanging right down. Fucking sucks. Spent like two hours in sheet rain. UPDATE: Stopped raining. I went over and continued to defoliate and cut little bits of rot from the interior. Sprayed a gallon of potassium bicarbonate and dawn on ever spot of rot I could find. I've been to the patch multiple times today. Found a few earwigs. I think I've found my problem. Late stage leaf septoria with earwigs eating the rotting plant matter. Fucking sucks but at least I have an idea. Can't upload pics and phone wouldn't even work in the rain. One 7 second video. 9/27 The extra work I've been putting in has certainly helped. I got in touch with a company who will do any type of extraction I want for $200 a lb. Fucking awesome. My cousin got 250 grams love rosin last year with this same company. I am sore. I checked trichs but I'm not seeing much Amber yet. Buds are gaining density fast. At least now that I have an idea what my problem is I can address it. Plants showed signs of pm after drying out. I did a k bicarb spray and this morning there isn't a spot. I need to take care of what's hanging so that's the plan today. 9/28 I think I made the right decision.my plants are looking good. Not where I want them but it's getting close. I checked the trichs this morning. Under 24 hour surveillance till harvest. Well it has been but now I stay up every nigh watching the cctv. Went down in the middle of the night to check for nocturnal bugs. Didn't find any. I've been defoliating the yellow septoria leaves. I went through every plant and cut out any rot and removed andy sugar leaves that started to turn brown. This and the k bicarb seem to help. I think that Leaf septoria has dwarfed the growth of the smaller dream catcher. Buds don't seem to be growing much more. Even my ICC has buds almost the size of the little one. The other dreamcatcher will probably be an elbow plant. The ice cream cake has beefed up incredibly and is covered in trich's. I'm super excited but I'm cautious at the same time. I hate that fucking dog but it's an added layer of security. Soon I'll do the harvest report for DJ short blueberry. 9/29 Trich's are changing fast. Haven't been watering lately do to all the rain. Plants are real real close. Up all night watching. Dog flipped out at 4am but no one was there. I want to wait until I have a little more Amber but I'm super excited. I may end up taking some tops. May end up doing a k bicarb spray today. Haven't decided yet. I'll update as I go. I've been making head way trimming the blueberry. 9/30. Things are looking beautiful. The smell at the garden is amazing. Lots of hard work left. Plants do have septoria and slight pm so I may do a bud wash. I cut a branch from each plant. I think I'm at the point of diminishing returns. Every wet night mold and critters take more and the chances of some idiot coming to try and take my shit increases. I may end up harvesting a little earlier. I'd lie to wait but the trichs look pretty good to me. Still doing all the maintenance required. I am extremely proud of this grow. I fought everything this year. Started with mites and thrips. Powder mildew came with them too. Now I've faced every pest or disease this year. At least it seems that way. I've seen the horror stories on my local Facebook thread. Leave your comments and let me know what you think about trichome stages and whether it would be ok to harvest. 10/1 Rained last night. Defoliated and removed some rot. I'll update later in the day. 10/2 Rained last night and I have A LOT to update which I will later.

This week has been such a gift! I have learned so much about proper care for a plant I had no idea how little I knew sitting down and observing these majestic trees produce such a potent flower has really humbled me. Premium cultivars strain has shown resilient and self sustaining easy to grow traits that it is hard to mess up. (Which I’ve done a few times lol) Notice the trichomes (I put the zoom lens on and got up in there so they could be better seen the bud itself is slathered in them ! This is going to be an amazing smoke! Also looking at the structure of the bud it’s self it has volume very full bodied bracts with pistils throughout It’s just an all-around beautiful thing to observe

7/21 Battling a strange deficiency that has spread to one of the buds, almost positive its a calcium issue so I gave #3 a 1l of water with cal-mag. Things looking great otherwise. 7/22 cut the bud that was having strange issues and there was no mold inside. Dried it for a day, smoked the most messed up part just to see and it was fine so unless it was a heat issue I have no clue what happened. Otherwise everything is still looking great 7/23 Cut a couple of the main colas because quite a few of the trichomes were turning amber. It may have been a bit too early, bit I will monitor the rest of the plants to see how the develop.
