Fast Buds Run Light at 75% and will stay like this for the coming week. Scrog net will also be installed this week. 09/04/24 - 2L RO Water with Cal Mag Xtra per plant. 11/04/24 - 3L RO Water only per plant. 14/04/24 - 3L RO Water with Nutes per plant. Notes : 08/04/24 - Scrog net was installed, will continue to adjust branches this coming week. 11/04/24 - Was seeing leaves a little bit on the dark side so fed only plain water 6.5ph, next feeding will be with nutes again. Re-arranged scrog net a bit more to open up the canopy a little bit more. Overall plants looking happy and all of them have now gone into the pre-flowering stage. 14/04/24 - Plants are doing really well in the pre-flowering stage and are really streching now. One last strech befor they go into full flower.

02/07/2026 A new week and the last week of veg. The stretch is just around the corner. So before hand, I did a tiny bit of trimming. Just the main stem fan leaves and a couple lower hanging leaves. I also took the lowest branch off. It wasn't gonna make it anyway. She's still super full, but has plenty of open space for air flow. I'll be increasing the light intensity at some point this week. However if she starts to stretch like I expect, I shouldn't need to increase the power much. I'm just trying to get to the bottom of the canopy. Currently she's short enough. So all the light is reaching. But when the stretch starts, I'll need a deeper penetrating light source. Mine. Turned up. I'll also be changing the nutrients out at some point this week. I'm pretty sure we start transitioning from grow nutes to bloom nutes. Adding in some bud ignitor, bud factor x and big bud in small doses. I'm just waiting for the bud ignitor to come in. It's absolutely frigid outside today, so the environment in the tent is off. The humidity is fine, but the temp is low. And I already overheated one heater. Hopefully the other one gets the tent back up to snuff. Once that happens, the devices will level off finally and run at low settings if at all. We just gotta get there. As for her looks, she looks full and vibrant. Beautiful green color. Super strong branches standing straight up. S couple of them are starting to spread out now, but the majority of them are standing up close to the main stem. They are too thick to use the bud clips and I don't have tie downs, so it's all natural for her. Maybe a little push down on the top just to get the lower branches pumping. 02/08/2026 Looking good today. She is really starting to look like a little fat Christmas tree. Still no training though. The branches are long enough, but too thick. So I'm still waiting for the stretch to start. Although, I'm pretty sure it started already. Maybe. It could be a couple more days. The water is low. I was thinking about topping it off, but I'm changing it tomorrow when my bud ignitor gets here. I think that's what I'm gonna do. Either way, I'm waiting for tomorrow. She might need a gallon or so if I were to top her off. I'm not sure now. Maybe I should top off. I will say that she is hungry. She's sucking up all the nutes in the water. She'll be fine. When I swap the water out, I'll make sure to give her enough food. However, I don't really know what she needs for nutes. Maybe 550 ppm? She's drained the nutes down below 300 ppm from 450 ppm or something like that. At least she's not overfed this time. The fucking environment. No matter what I do, it just stays fucked up. There pardon the language, but it's definitely needed. So I set the humidity ton55% now it's stuck at 52%. Where yesterday it was at 57% with no problems. I don't get it. And the temp is just low. AGAIN! It was 75° yesterday. WTF. 02/09/2026 I still haven't decided what to do about the water change. I'm definitely doing it today, but I'm still waiting for a nutrient to show up. I can't decide if I want to stay with the current feed or start the transition from grow to bloom. I think I'm going to start the bloom nutrients. Just at a really low dose. So I'll be adding big bud, bud factor x and bud ignitor. We'll be keeping the voodoo juice, Tarantula and Piranha out for the rest of the run. She looks absolutely amazing. Beautiful vibrant green, thick branches and side branching coming out everywhere. She's definitely gonna be a bushy one and I'll need to defoliate a good amount. That's ok. She's healthy enough to take a pretty good hair cut. But I won't be doing so until after the stretch. I moved the humidifier around and put a hose it came with on it. So now the humidity is put in above the canopy. Hopefully it keeps the humidity in check and not constantly running. The temp is also kinda good. So no complaints there today. I also took measurements. She's 14" tall now and about 21" from the light. I was considering lifting the light up and increasing the intensity for a bigger footprint, but I don't think I need to quite yet. I'm thinking in the next couple of days I'll need to adjust it anyway. Especially because of the Apple Strudel which is 16" tall and only starting to stretch now. She's gonna be a beast. This little lady won't be small either. I don't think she is beast material though. Well, who knows maybe she is. 02/10/2026 So instead of swapping the water out today, I topped off with a half gallon of the new stuff. She's drinking about a half gallon a day, so I'll continue to feed the normal dose but in half gallon intervals over the course of the week. Then I'll change out the water with the regular dose. Regular as in 1/3 dose from what the manufacturer says. It should be fine. Update: I decided to swap out the water. Lol Readings: pH: 5.8 EC: 898 TDS: 450 Temp: 64.7° We will have to see how she likes this mix. A couple hours later: So far it looks good. I'm not exactly sure what to look out for. According to both the Advanced Nutrients app and the FastBuds autoflower schedule, I'm perfectly in range. Anyway, she looks fantastic! Beautiful colors. Strong side branching. Best of all, it's starting to spread out. So more and more bud sites may be grown. I'll just have to cut some select leaves after the stretch. We'll see how it goes. I have a good feeling about this plant. Not sure how big she'll get, but her buds should be POTENT. 02/11/2026 So I forgot to add an ice bottle last night. Now there's big bubbles on top of the water and on the roots. Not really sure what it means, but both plants did it. This one and the Apple Strudel. Maybe it's the mix with the new nutrients, like bud ignitor and bud factor x. Maybe the water was too warm and I screwed up. We'll find out at some point today or tomorrow. I'm gonna have to check the EC and TDS to make sure it's staying the same. If it's raising, I know I have too much nutrients. But I don't think so. I hope it's not another algae bloom. It didn't look like this before though. Maybe a new issue? I'll keep an eye on it. Other than that, she looks amazing. Taking a very nice shape all by herself. She has clear layers of leaves and branches. Directly from the side, you can see them. It's very nice. Don't get me wrong, unless she stretches considerably, I'll definitely be defoliating after the stretch. Plus I'm expecting bigger leaves. The environment seems pretty decent as well. Doesn't seem any equipment is having issues either. Something I'll note is the color of the leaf tips. They are dark, but barely. No claw either. So I'm only noting it. Not too worried about it. We'll see how things go throughout today. It's not like I'm pumping her with like 1000 ppm or anything. It's like 450. There shouldn't be any issues whatsoever except for maybe being a little underfed, but this doesn't seem to be the case. She seems very happy and healthy. Wanting for nothing. She has all she needs. 02/12/2026 Not much to report today. She's stretching and her leaves are all filling out making her explode with growth. She looks amazing. Still growing one main cola though. I can tell. It's gonna be short I think, but the rest of the plant will have caught up by then. I don't expect small buds from this plant either. She's definitely gonna pack them on. But, if this is in fact a blue dream, the buds will be pointy and long. Let's hope these branches grow long enough for a hand full of foot long colas. The environment looks pretty good too. Equipment is running just fine. The water this morning wasn't warm, so that's good. I did however replace the ice bottle. The pH is fine. I haven't taken it, but I'm guessing with the pH perfect technology, it's 6.1 to 6.3. perfectly within range. I'll check numbers this afternoon and report then. Also, from the looks of it, the water seems fine. No films, no smells, just bubbles. I wonder if they make a styrofoam bucket insulation thing. That'd be nice to have instead of always swapping out ice bottles. Oh well. I also have to top her off today. I just checked. Looks like maybe a half gallon? Maybe a little more? I'm trying to wait for a gallon, but the water looks so low. Oh well. I'm still topping off today. Lol. Update: So I added a half gallon of the current dose and the EC and TDS are lower than what they were when I swapped out the water. Am I supposed to increase the dose as needed? But I don't know what I need exactly. I'm pretty sure she is hungry and needs more nutrients, but I don't want to overdo it. Plus I have to figure out a way to not take the plant out of the bucket. She's getting big and cumbersome. Plus with the other plant in the tent, maneuvering around without pressing too hard against the other plant and the walls is damn near impossible. The heater is in the way. Like really in the way. I would need to take the heater out, move all the wires and hoses just to put the reserve bucket in place. I suppose I can pump out a gallon, add more mix and then dump it back in and let the bubbles and top feed system mix it in. I'd rather mix it in by hand, but again, I can't lift the plant from the bucket. I mean, maybe I can pump out the full bucket, dose it properly and then pump it back in. That wouldn't be too bad. 🤔. I might do that. At least with this plant. The other plant has a lot more space to move around. I can lift that one out... for now. She's gonna be big. Anyway, that's all for today. 02/13/2026 Lookin good today. She definitely exploded in growth. No height yet, but definitely filling out. I expect the height to come soon enough. She's only like 15" tall. I need double that. Lol I swapped the ice bottles out. She wasn't warm so that's a good thing. Keep it cool. I'm starting to think that maybe this isn't the stretch or just the very beginning. The upward growth is like a vegging plant. Not one that in a super stretch mode. Maybe I was off by my stretching timing. We'll see. The environment looks good today. Or well, has been looking good. I guess not that it was all that bad, but a little cool. It's fine. I've still got the humidity at 55% and temp at 75°. I think when I start to see actual buds, I'll drop it to 50%. Oh, I won't be turning the humidifier off. It's staying right where it is because the humidity in the house is like 29%. Unless the plants get big enough to start putting off their own humidity. Then, well, it'll just turn off and do nothing except sit there. I'd much rather not use it, but it's ok if it turns on a little bit. I doubt it will turn on much. It still might even at 45%. Readings: pH: 6.35 EC: 777 cm TDS: 382 ppm Temp: 66°

Week 9 has finished, she is pretty close to chop 👍🏾

Just... lot of work.. semms luke las . DEF

Can't wait till harvest time

Plant is recovering well from defoliation. No pistles yet but looks like beginning of flowers forming. Going to call this first week of flowers. Plant doesn't seem to be getting any taller this is a genetic issue I think. Going to a different breeder next run. I think they are white label genetics which can be hit or miss.

things are still on the go..Looking at the tricomes the are still clear with hints of cloudy.. Coming along pretty well. Im just watering with plain water now and just enough for a light runoff. Ec is low already and I don't think I can get it to anything less. Just doing routine maintenence this week. There has been no change in the colour of the leaves and this is the 11th day of. plain water.. Its all a waiting game.. I also changed the light schedule to a 11-13...... its supposed to help in trichome ripening... I hope. 😀 The vanilla Kush looks ready but I'm not sure. If anyone has an opinion on how much longer please share

All going good flower in full swing. Trycombes starting to come through smells are starting to come through pick a few leaves of here and there when they are needed and shading other places. Plenty of flowering and kolas site. It’s all looking superb and is coming along very very well. Feeding twice a week every other watering no deficiency I did have some trouble with some nanners on one plant but have picked them off as I see them it was one of the cherry poppers to far to leave it alone.but no more structures and all going well flowering development powering along !

Halli, Hallo, Hallöle liebe Growfreunde 🤗🤗, Heute ist BT 18 und ich habe heute mal entlaubt und ganz leicht gelollipoppt. Ich wollte nicht zuviel lollipoppen, da ich denke dass die Sanlight Lampen eine sehr gute Tiefenwirkung haben, vorallem weil die aüßeren schräg hängen und der Lichtstrahl sich quasi kreuzt. Die Entwicklung in dieser Woche war, genauso wie die letzten Wochen, sehr entspannt. Alles ist gut verlaufen und der stretch lässt sich jetzt auch endlich sehen. Die Gorilla Zkittlez ist leder nicht mehr viel gewachsen und die Sweet ZZ lässt auch zu wünschen übrig zwecks stretch, aber was solls, lecker ist es auf jedenfall

Veg a 200 grams Veg b 150 grams Zerotol 50ml Silica 25ml Bleach 10ml Flex 50ml About 3 weeks in at this point, I'm kind of off on my days at the moment lol. Dropped the feed this week 1.8 EC, plants definitely don't like the full feed and I added a little flex from drip hydro. Put up the trellis net double layer and removed a lot of plant material. I mainly just keep the dominant tops personally. Excited to see if I get any difference in flower quality and production with these new nutrients, switching to bloom nutrients next week. I'm running 2 different lights and the plants do grow slightly different under each.

This auto ghost OG loves her little home. She's doing well. Had some calcium deficiency last week since I ran out of calmag. I was hesitant to use organic calmag, but that was all I could find locally. It is doing the trick though. pH has held stable with no adjustments and the leaf color is looking great. No water change this week since since everyone seems to be happy with the nutrient levels. She popped her first pistils on day 25 so I am hoping she will enter flower soon. Only issue at this point is she is a lot bigger than I ever thought she would get. I will probably have to figure out a way to get them further away from each other. And yes....this plant is 28 days old in a 16 oz cup. At no time have any roots grown out of the cup. Happy growing everyone!

I pinched the tops off both plants..

7/11 It's pouring. We got like 2 in of rain. I compared the flowering with that of the mendo breath I grew in a previous journal and they are real close. Tjat was DONE DONE in September. Judging by the small preflowers they are going to be ready approximately around the same time. I think I'm going to have a middle September harvest with some and some will go to October. Realistically, I should've changed this to flower. I like to call it "the stretch" though. Plants are stretching like a mother fucker. Seems like the less I fuck with them the better they do! No nutes yet. I'm going on vacation for a week and I think I won't feed before I leave either. Plants don't look like they are lacking in anything. Just because I have tons of nutes doesn't mean I need to use them. Still need to put up the secondary supports for flower. Went over after a break in the rain. Went through each plant one by one. Most had leaves that were either turning yellow or yellow at the bottom interior. I only removed leaves that were dead or dieing. I should probably have degoliated more but I'm doing the KISS method this year. Things seem to be doing good that way. Some minor pests. I found a slug but put out slug bait for those and earwigs. Noticed a few white flies and multi color flies (probably fungus knats but they are up at the top, not down by the soil. I'm going to think about it and do some research. Damage is so MINIMAL and pests are MINIMAL that im holding off spraying. I mat start nutes tomorrow though. I'm uncertain on a lot of things. I need to meditate on it. Just because those interior leaves died the plants are still a LUSH dark green so I think they're alright. It's going really good but I'm going to be on vacation for a week. I can still monitor daily with my camera's and my family that is watching them will FaceTime me every morning and show me what's going on. They know what they're doing and if something arises I have BASICALLY a growers union in my town. All family. We look after each other. That's the only reason I considered even going. However, the event horizons, sherb pie, toasted toffy and AT LEAST 1 GMO "LOOK" like they will be flowering early. Like I said they look similar to a mendo breath pheno on another diary that finished in September. We shall see. I'm excited that's for sure! 7/12 So far no rain! Super hot and muggy. Killed a jpn beetle and a moth larvae this morning and another beetle this afternoon. I'm seeing SOME pest damage which makes me want to spray before some of these plants take off flowering. There isn't much damage and tje birds sit on the top just WAITING for a chance to swoop in and grab something. I've seen tons of wasps tjis year. I killed a snail yesterday and put out slug bait around my pallets. I'm leaving early tomorrow. I'm CONSIDERING doing an application of Cap'n Jack's before I leave. I'm not sure. I made little DIY videos for dad and I hope he follows them. If not I'll have another grower come help. With all the rain I noticed some white flies when I shook a couple plants. I don't have time to really deal with it right now. There were only a few and I think spinosad would kill those too. Either way it will be fine. I can monitor via camera. I can even hit an alarm that goes to four different people. Still. I don't like leaving my girls. Especially in this heat. 7/13 Left early for a short vacation. Just got a picture saying it's sunny there and my plants are doing good. I'm lucky to havecthe crew that I do. I'm sure if I asked they'd put up yellow sticky traps. That's something I may consider. 7/14 Dad said it Rained last night and driving down here it was just PURE SHEET RAIN. He sent me pics I uploaded and everything looks GREAT! gonna get sun after all that rain and wind. They are gonna explode! 7/15 Still on Vacation. Dad showed me the plants and said they looked a little dry so I had him use the 4 GALLONS OF WATER I HAD PREMIXED FOR HIM TO WATER THE GARDEN. This way each plant gets a half gallon. It's supposed to be in the 90's with no rain tonight. Rains euppised to come tomorrow but I've seen how fast a bag can dry out in ONE day with super hot weather and high winds. The wind blows through the bag drying the medium out. Dad's right. Things do look amazing. I'm having fun but it will be nice to get back and see if I was right and those few plants are trying to flower. Looks just like those two mendo phenomes that flowered early. 7/16 still on vacation. Got a nice rain for the plants. Not much though. 7/17 Had DAD WATER FOUR GALLONS ON THE GARDEN. ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT. I really miss my girls. I'm ready to get going and start doing the things that need to be done. Few more days and I'll be home with my pretty ladies. Last time I came back to nice little flowers. They looked about in the same stage when I left. I love early finishers. They're stretching thsts for sure.

Wow she's grown a massive 34cm this week!!!! Monster growth!

Well here we are at day 35 and my girl is turning into a stunning looking young lady :) This c4 has surprised me and is growing with such speed and vigour producing budding sights like there’s no tomorrow :) I can start to see some purpling already even in these young immature buds :) I can’t wait for her to fatten up and fill with resin and trichome’s , Update on day38 and the C4 is looking amazing she is starting to take on some lovely purple colouring :)..

Week 8 looking great, starting to get a little colorful and we’re ripening. The tent is smelling awfully strong, fruits, gas, lemons, spices a lot of sensations when opening. Biobizz ran out gotta use some Advanced Nutrients for the last 3 Waterings, already gave them one feed and seemingly can see a difference already, crazy stuff. Got you guys some bud shots with/without light and a video, hope the resizing doesn’t kill the quality too much.

Its very small for week 4 compared to my other plants. But this phenotype is sneaky. It'll fatten up soon.

It's amazing how quickly the weather can change. Just a few weeks ago we were bundled up in our warmest coats, and now it's finally starting to feel like springtime. With temps in the 40s and 50s, it's the perfect time to get outside and enjoy the sunshine. My pound cake plant is finally getting somewhere. It's totally weird, because the stems turned this super cool purple color. Soon it's going to be covered in pound cake buds that'll be ready to eat. I'm thinking fancy frosting might be the way to go, but I'm also considering something fruity on top.

Hi, so I finally all plants have started to grow. There are significant differences between plants. Some of them just started to grow, others have been in a process for some time. All the delay was caused by initial over watering. So I am doing a LST to prepare all of them for SCROG later on and kind of normalize/level their canopy. Keeping Input EC on 1.3, pH 5.6. EC trend is a decreasing value, currently dropped to 1.2. So really, it started to accept nutrients well.
