~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/12- Week Fifteen is here, the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower has stretched tremendously, becoming a monster at approximetly 6' tall now and should be starting to flower anytime!😍 7/14- Our summer weather continues to be hot, although we do get a break from the heat when we're lucky enough to get some rain which also helps mitigate the daily watering. Yesterday it rained the better part of the day, which provided over an inch of rain. Today, I went ahead and watered in the afternoon, but only gave the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower approx. 5g of well water from the garden hose. 7/16- Our weather continues to be really hot with daytime temp's in the upper 90's Fahrenheit. If it does not rain I am watering everyday with 10g of well water. I will also be top dressing the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower next week in anticipation of her transitioning into flower! 7/18- Another week gone by and more tremendous growth from the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower which has me more excited about this strain than ever. I can't wait for flowering to begin and for this fine lady to show her stuff!🤩 Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Let´s start Day 43 😎 some sun and cloudy with rain again 😳 Day44 cloudy and rain and cold 😡

Lot of Trichomes showing up! Let's keep it up, 2 more weeks are my goal of harvest, will start next week to flush

I am just going to add some pictures of the reveg. If you're interested in me expanding the diary make some comments and if I have time I will.

9weeks and 4 days seed to harvest, 125g dry weight👊🏻 Banging straight after a dry 💯 white ash, gonna be killa when had a good cure😎😤

Day 16-27/12/21 all looking great!!!! Day 20-31/12/21 all looking good just waiting for some space to free up in another tent and I’ll move half of them!!!

Day 62. 13 days after the flip to 12/12 and starting to show pistils from the shoots. Leaves are much healthier than before and they're taking to flowering well. I cant get the temperature any lower at the moment so it will just have to do. Although heatwaves are on the way to the UK! Emergency news, I must relocate and the ladies are coming with me! Big task but must remove the net and then they're coming on a journey with me! I am not sure whether I will put the net back on and try to weave them through or if maybe LST is the way to go from here unfortunately..

We have passed three weeks of flowering. I'm very happy with the results so far and considering we have 5 to 6 weeks to go, these buds have the potential to get huge. Started watering more, 4 liters every two days instead of every 3 days. Also after a full 3 weeks of flowering, we started the flowering amendments, 2 cups of worm castings, 1 cup of bonemeal and a cup of Micro life each. Just put that on top of the soil, watered with the Perma tea, to which I added some woodash, just two tablespoons and stirred. To 12 liters of this I added 60 ml of BAC Organic Flower, 20 mils of BAC Calmag and 12 mils of Top Max. They seemed to love it, they payed me back with enormous bud growth in the last week. Anyone still doubting the power of the SP-3000, look at this grow! This light is spectacular! Thank you @MarsHydroLED, check out their Black Friday deals on www.mars-hydro.com I have been sitting on my hands regarding defoliating. Because we had a full three weeks of flowering, I started some underside leafpicking and pruning the smallest branches with no chance of growing out. I kept it to a minimum and will gradually do more. The smells of orange and related citrus is amazing. It is a mixture of orange peels, lime, kumquat, grapefruit and those lovely little oranges they put in Earl Grey tea. The undertones are of a very dense funk, this is going to be a banger, I can tell already. Thanks for following me, all the likes and comments!! See you on one of our diaries! Hug Bud

It's a nice change of pace to have these warmer temperatures, even if it's not quite spring yet. Low 40s during the day is a lot more comfortable than what we've been dealing with lately. Hopefully, this is a sign that spring's around Those Bubble OG's are looking fantastic! It's awesome how two of them are starting to get that purple color – they look so cool. The third one might look a little different, but that just adds to the fun of growing them.

Some of you may have wondered: Why do I use CO2 at average 950 ppfd μmol/m2/s (moral flow)? The answer is quite simple. Because of lack of space in some regions of my cultivation area, I simply cannot keep the ideal distance to my Sanlight high-performance lamp, due to some height growth of various strains. And so some of the main colas have ppfd values of 1250 μmol/m2/s and even more... So this is how I manage to achieve and compensate for such high radiation levels even with a CO 2 balance. And I have to say, my strategy to avoid various light stress symptoms works just fabulously. In combination with CO 2 implementation, my babies are simply unbeatably insensitive to light. Thats it! Beginning of 3rd week flowering: Again feeding my babies by 36 hours fermented potions of Bio Tabs Kompost Tea PK-Booster (15 g pro Liter) and added: 5ml Orgatrex/Liter 1 Spoon of Bactrex 1 Spoon of Mycotrex 1 Spoon of Mycco-Vital 1 Spoon of Dynomyco A little tip for those who are interested in small modifications that have a big difference or influence - on the result - effect - beauty - health - taste! Before adding microorganisms or beneficial bacteria or Mycorrizae and Trichodermas, please use oxygen-saturated water. On the one hand, unwanted chlorine gases evaporate and the small world of the microbiome becomes even faster and more rewarding in compost tea to sprout. Last but not least for this week, I would like to introduce my reasons, why I prefer growing biologically and sustainably. First of all, it’s something which suits very well in these times/days we are living now. Sustainability is a big need and task for our planet. 🌎 Nature means life. Our home, the air we breathe and everything that surrounds us. Not just today. Hopefully tomorrow as well. Maybe I'm starting to protect our environment on a small scale, but maybe I can also make a big difference at all. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change... I thought about what’s the difference, between Mineral Feeding and Super Soil Feeding. It’s very easy. Biologically Growing is a similar process than the natural soil activities out there in the lap of nature’s. So plants has to work and interact with the microorganisms and microbiomic communities in the soil. So the plants will never get lazy like the lazy ones of mineral feeding growers. If you grow biologically, you will feed the soil first and the microorganisms will support every parameter next to your plant conditions. And that will generate an unbelievable spectrum of Terpenes and Trichomes you will never forget. It’s the same comparison, when you daily visit McDonalds and you eat only fast food. How does your body and mind react on this shit for money?!?! May I invite you to think about it… See you next week dear Growmies! Have a nice Weekend and take care… Peace out! Addendum for Day 53: At the moment we unfortunately have another winter onset here in Germany. This means that I am forced to take additional heating measures due to structural facts in order to be able to keep the temperatures constant. After all, just tonight the thermometer climbs again to -1 degree Celsius. In addition, my exhaust air system runs out of my bedroom terrace and I therefore grow winter and summer with the patio door open. Well, sometimes I experience real weather-related challenges. But all in all, no problem... "Where there's a will, there's a way." Addendum to pouring out the fermented PK tea: I always administer half a liter of lukewarm aerated water with 3.5 ml of cannazyme per liter to each plant. This means that the "root machine" is not supplied with supplies unprepared and the nutrient solution can thus also be better distributed in the soil. Since I also work with cloth shoes, I spray them evenly moistened everywhere with water that is also warm before pouring them out from the outside. This has the advantage that the moisture stays where it should: in the pot! ... I did the math today ;-) We are still in week 7 until this Friday. And week 8 starts on Friday! OMG... still so much time yeahh! Today my Fast Buds Sour Jealousy and Sweet Seeds Big Devil and Dark Devil Automatics arrived. I'm looking forward to it. This time Fast Buds next Time Sweet Seeds. Love them too. Very beautiful genetics. Today a review video of the beginning of week 3. At the time of the pictures, I had minor signs of nitrogen excess. (Light peaks first at the crown of the roof and then slightly continuing to the middle section.) I then painstakingly racked my brains as to why this could be. I found that very slight dry spots had formed and therefore the root found small accumulations of nitrogen that caused its problems. But then, when I carefully homogeneously checked the moisture content in the substrate, the problem evaporated again. However, they had not shown any loss of growth rate during this time. Nevertheless, they developed as expected. They Strawnanas had no problem with that. In the end, I always have a hard time killing them. But I guess that's the way things go. We live and die. We come and go. But it's not there yet. ;-) Tomorrow is day 56. Tomorrow’s updating day! Can't wait to see their progress. Have a good time and see you tomorrow… 🏽🕊️ 🏽 ☮️🕊️

Day 52-64 (Day 54) I’m going to thoroughly inspect each plant and remove bananas if found. So far it’s only been the one on #7 but I don’t want to take a chance. I’m also going to give a watering with some runoff. (Day 55) Can’t find anymore bananas but that one. I will probably find a few bag seeds but who knows. It’s way too late for pollen to really have effect anyway. These 5 plants finish nice and early compared to my other tent flipped on the same day. I would never take this strain 65+ days like last time. I would do 56-60 days next time I flower this strain (Day 58) Holy shit this tent is fading like crazy now. They are starting to show some beautiful autumn colors. #1 #5 and #7 are definitely done. #3 and #6 could use a little more time so I’ve decided to take them down on the 24th. I haven’t seen anymore bananas and the one that popped out on #7 has shriveled up and receded. (Day 63) I’m seeing what look like seed pods starting to form in some of the main colas on my picture perfect pheno. #7 is showing 3 or 4 little bananas too. All of the top buds are definitely done so I’m going to harvest as soon as the lights come on tomorrow. I’m going to give one last watering right now and then harvest. I’ve noticed that harvesting a watered plant will extend the dry time by a few days and that’s exactly what I’m looking for. A nice slow dry. Plants are being full plant hung + dry trimmed and tent is being kept at 60-65 degrees and 60-65% RH. Cutting everything down was a pain in the ass. I had to individually cut each square the scrog net so it wouldn’t contract and squish all the buds. I chopped down my other tent as well so I have no other plants in flower right now.

Rocko’s Runtz Rumble – Tag 63 Blütewoche 2 – Der Stretch trudelt aus! Die zweite Blütewoche ist geschafft und unsere drei Kandidatinnen haben noch einmal ordentlich an Höhe zugelegt. Zum Glück scheint sich der Stretch gegen Ende der Woche langsam zu beruhigen – und darüber bin ich ehrlich gesagt auch ziemlich froh. 😅 Der Stretch Melonade Runtz ist von 85 cm auf etwa 105–108 cm gewachsen. Ihre langen Internodien und ihre offene Struktur werden immer deutlicher. Sie bleibt weiterhin unsere empfindlichste Kandidatin und einige der oberen Triebe zeigen leichten Lichtstress. Kein Wunder, denn der Abstand zu den Lampen ist inzwischen verdammt knapp geworden. Pink Banana Runtz ist von 70 cm auf etwa 90–96 cm gewachsen. Sie bleibt damit weiterhin die kompakteste und buschigste unserer drei Kandidatinnen und zeigt deutlich kürzere Internodien. Besonders auffällig ist inzwischen ihr Abendrhythmus: Pinky zeigt von allen drei am deutlichsten, wann sie Feierabend haben möchte. Gegen Ende der Lichtphase lässt sie ihre Blätter gerne schon deutlich absinken, während Melonade und vor allem Blue Zushi teilweise noch richtig steil dastehen. 😴 Offenbar hat hier jede Kandidatin ihre ganz eigene innere Uhr. Blue Zushi ist von 90 cm auf etwa 113 cm gewachsen und hat damit inzwischen die Führung bei der Höhe übernommen. Unsere Wildcard entwickelt sich weiterhin kräftig und vital und macht ihrem bisherigen Ruf als kleines Monster alle Ehre. Bei allen drei Damen sind die ersten Blüten inzwischen deutlich zu erkennen. Zum Glück scheint der Stretch gegen Ende der zweiten Blütewoche endlich langsam auszutrudeln. Die täglichen Höhenzuwächse werden geringer und das Wachstum verlagert sich zunehmend in Richtung Blütenbildung. Darüber bin ich wirklich froh, denn nach oben ist mittlerweile kaum noch Luft. Um überhaupt noch die letzten verfügbaren Zentimeter aus dem Zelt herauszuquetschen, musste sogar der Aktivkohlefilter nach draußen umziehen. 😅 Jetzt dürfen die drei ihre Energie wirklich gerne in die Blüten stecken. Düngung und Pflege Die Grundversorgung läuft weiterhin hauptsächlich über die BioTabs im Substrat. Deshalb bleiben wir mit zusätzlicher Düngung nach wie vor eher zurückhaltend. Mit dem langsam auslaufenden Stretch und der zunehmenden Blütenbildung verschiebt sich der Fokus jetzt darauf, die Pflanzen gesund und gleichmäßig versorgt durch die kommenden Blütewochen zu bringen. Gesundheit und Schädlingskontrolle Insgesamt machen alle drei Kandidatinnen weiterhin einen gesunden und vitalen Eindruck. Ganz los sind wir unsere ungebetenen Gäste allerdings noch nicht. 😅 Die Thripse zeigen sich wieder, deshalb läuft unser Nützlingsprogramm weiter und die Situation wird genau beobachtet. Melonade bleibt insgesamt die empfindlichste der drei und reagiert insbesondere auf die hohe Lichtintensität. Pinky steckt das Ganze bislang deutlich gelassener weg, während Blue Zushi weiterhin sehr robust wirkt. Beleuchtung Unser kleines Experiment mit 730 nm Far-Red geht weiter. Mittlerweile läuft Far-Red allerdings nur noch für etwa 15 Minuten als End-of-Day-Behandlung am Ende der Lichtphase. Zusätzlich ist jetzt 660 nm Deep Red dazugekommen und läuft für ein paar Stunden in der Mitte der Lichtphase. Fazit Blütewoche 2 hat die Unterschiede zwischen unseren drei Kandidatinnen noch deutlicher gemacht. Melonade überrascht weiterhin mit ihrem starken Stretch und ihrer offenen Struktur, Pinky bleibt unser kompakter kleiner Busch – und zeigt abends von allen am deutlichsten, wann für sie Feierabend ist – und Wildcard Blue Zushi hat inzwischen die Führung bei der Höhe übernommen. Am meisten freut mich aber, dass der Stretch jetzt endlich langsam auszutrudeln scheint. Nachdem wir selbst den Aktivkohlefilter aus dem Zelt werfen mussten, um noch die letzten Zentimeter herauszuquetschen, darf es nach oben jetzt wirklich gerne etwas ruhiger werden. 😅 Die ersten Blüten sind da – jetzt kann die eigentliche Show beginnen. Rocko’s Runtz Rumble – Am Ende zählt nur, welche Runtz am härtesten rumbled! 🥊🔥💚🌱✌️

Hallo zusammen 🤙 Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Probleme. Wer einen Rabatt von 20 % haben möchte muss den Code: ZAMMIGROW2024 eingeben.

Hello Growmies, switched to 12-12 today. Yesterday removed the branches I didn't want to keep and fixed the remaining ones to the scrog net. We will see how much stretch they will have. Hope they remain that even in hight, but with the sanlight two light setup it's not a real problem If they get dif hight. Still running CANNA Veg till Stretch ist over ,but going to ad some CANNA Boost the next Reservoir fill up.

Still just plodding on slowly. Topped this week. Have also installed a CO2 bag.

Week 4 showing sex 😊

Finished out the grow with Florakleen and a simple plain water swap in the reservoir yesterday. I prefer to hang with all the fans removed so did that before chop.

I had to top Cantaloupe haze and White widow as they were too close to the lights and I didn't want to loose any ppfd on my lowers. My GSC seems perfect for not topping. next time I would top those strains at least once. I have been flushing the CH and getting run off around 1200ppm which seems like the max she can take the others like it stronger so I have been flushing them every 2-3 days. CH is tough to keep happy but will continue to monitor. All plants are in week 4 of flower 12/12 from seed.

White Dominia has a very nice structure and filling the canopy very evenly. it has very nice long top colas forming with very close nodes and buds staking rapidly. Stems are thickening and trichomes are developing the bud sites and sugar leaves. They were still stretching a lot this week ,but at the end of the week are slowing down some. Got my temps dialed a little cooler while having lights going full blast because the plants seem to be handling it well. They stretch themselves right into the canopy where is reading over 1400 PPFD. I'm running the light so intense the lower buds at the top of the first net are growing almost the same rate as one closer to the top of second net. The plants have been drinking a ton. I watered at least 3 times about 7 gallons each time. I wanted to give them some compost tea last week, but they were drinking so quickly, I didn't have a day in between to let my water air/bubble to get it prepared for my brew. I was able to get and extra day in between and a nice dry back followed by a top dress of rock dust watered in with my compost tea with a little bit of everything I got. Each plant received top dress each 1 cup azomite,1/2 cup glacial and basalt, and 1/4 cup Langbeinite. Plants got another trim everything below the first net beforehand. I took out a few leaves between the two nets but for the most part left the plants untouched except for the a few of the oldest leaves.
