So WHY is this auto taking so damn long to mature??? Is this normal? It's my first hydro grow, but my wife's soil grow started after mine (more than a week) + was grown in the exact same room .... but has been harvested over the past TWO weeks. Thoughts? Not much needed doing this week. Did a huge trim mid week that was posted to a mid week update in last week's diary entry. She didn't like it at first but then bounced back pretty well. I think I have a very slight touch of nutrient burn on some of the tips, but it could also be a touch dry as we're having a hard time keeping the room over 40% humidity as the outdoor temps here are stupid cold recently. Hoping to harvest in 2 weeks or so.. but could be longer. Urgh. She's a big, bountiful, heat-loving lady that's finally a under a bit of vegetative control... but apparently REALLY likes to take things slow.

Week 1 (17-6 to 23-6) 17-6 Temps: 23.8 to 27.8 degrees Humidity: 46% to 74% Watering: 70 ml. 18-6 Temps: 24.4 to 28.1 degrees Humidity: 56% to 75% 19-6 Temps: 23.1 to 26.9 degrees Humidity: 53% to 69% 20-6 Temps: 23.4 to 27.7 degrees Humidity: 46% to 73% Watering: 76 ml. 21-6 Temps: 23.4 to 27.8 degrees Humidity: 46% to 82% 22-6 Temps: 24.2 to 28.2 degrees Humidity: 53% to 76% 23-6 Temps: 24.9 to 29.1 degrees Humidity: 45% to 76% Watering: 84 ml. She is quite a stretcher, but seems very happy. My baseline for the 20W light is a minimum of 10 cm distance, but it looks like she will hug the light soon 😂 Hopefully she wont become a pain in the ass 😅

Been a great start 😊 gave her a first feed of organic biobizz nutrients today! She’s 7 days old today and the rest will be 7 days old tomorrow! Several times a day I LST and foliage spray as humidity is 50-60% fastbuds are defiantly the best for autos! 💯

Day 172. Some strains ended up frosty, smelly and nuggy, so I already have 76 g from first Strawberry, rest should bring some buds too, couple plants will go untrimmed to my friends as presents, one was already given away ... Think I will have like 300 g easy, and my friends got same amount as presents. Not a bad project, with loads of issues, happily almost no care was given or needed, so I count it as a result achieved : 1. I know that Hermie is bringing other hermies. 2. UK weather is only for autos, that lesson should be learnt long time ago, but I still hope to find mold resilient strain... No updates or other strain harvests will be done, have no time to play ... Happy Growing !!!

Removed 20l from the reservoir and filled it up with fresh nutrients. Added Yara Kristalon Orange, Yara Calcinit and a little bit of Haifa GrowClean to the reservoir. Adjusted PH/ORP, PH- adds P and ORP adjustment adds K. Topped it up with tap water every second day, the dehumidifier pulls ~12l/day, most of it should be from the plants I've got in my tent. I am struggling to keep ORP at ~100, might be a sign of root trouble. Nothing else to report. Values are average of the day.

28.12 runter auf 20-30 DLI 1.6 Ec. Sie nimmt nochmal ne dunklere Farbe an, Trichome am Reifen. Bald ist Erntezeit 25.12 Woche 8 (Tag 50). In 2 Wochen ist Sie erntereif. Trichome trüben sich milchig, einige bräunlich. Schaut so aus als ob Sie perfekt nach Verkäuferangaben fertig wird(60Tage).

She's looking good, she's 21 days and for me she's a little bit small, let's see how she performs,she's being fed exclusively with Bio tabs organics.

Pheno 1 dark purple : On the nose, it reveals a sharp burst of fresh lemon, layered with a powerful eucalyptus aroma that’s both invigorating and camphorous. A truly refreshing and vibrant terpene profile😈🍋 Pheno 2 Green : this one is a real surprise! If I close my eyes, it’s like Nutella! It’s as if you’ve just walked into a kitchen where hazelnuts have been freshly roasted 🤤🌰 Pheno 3 light purple : It’s a mix of the first two with a hint of amarena cherry at the end🍒🍧

Day 158. And girl is the healthiest plant in all greenhouse ;))) 250 in height !!!! Next day I had to bend her down, she is pulling back now already. Will do clearing in greenhouse and for her a bit... Day 160.First frost was tonight !!! Happy Growing !!!

Day 81 Added an A/C unit. Trying to get the temp down. I’ve got some things to figure out here... Day 82 So the A/C and the Dehumidifier were fighting each other. The solution for now is to have the dehumidifier in there vented out of the tent and the AC unit outside the tent so the intake fan sucks cool air into the tent when the fan kicks on at 80 degrees. Day 83 Well the plants fell over... so now they have been tied up. The buds were getting too heavy and the plant started tilting. All good now. They look incredible! Day 85 Really struggling to keep temps and humidity down. I think keeping the humidity down is more important at this point. Day 87 I finally figured out a configuration that is keeping the plants at a steady 79 degrees. Phew. Also, I’m almost positive now that these are 2 different strains. One smells citrusy and the other more skunky. 2 more weeks!

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2203 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... 🤪 But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Mars Hydro Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/29- Here we go into Week One of Flower! It's been a month since these pretty ladies popped out of the ground and they're both looking perfect and have pistils popping out everywhere! Their fabric pots were still heavy when lifted, and they looked happy, so I skipped watering today and will check them tomorrow morning after the lights come on. Since being topped roughly a week ago, they have two new shoots that are emerging and looking extremely healthy with excellent vigor and have a beautiful healthy green color! The #1 is now at 7" tall and the #2 a bit taller at 8". 12/31- Today was a 'dry day and all I did was refill the humidifier and some canopy maintenance, tucking shade leaves and gently bending branches. It's been a little over four weeks since they were planted in their amended medium and it's time to give their microbes a good feed so they can continue to provide them with all the macro and micro nutrients they need so, yesterday they got a good watering with 0.5g of de-chlorinated water with GreenGro's Veg, Flower, Green Aminos, Natures Brix and Granular Myco added to it @ 1.5 tsp/g and then ph'd to 6.4 @ 73℉. 01/02- Yesterday I watered them from the bottom with 0.5g of de-chlorinated water to which I added 3ml/g of Earth Juice OilyCann cal-mag to prevent any Cal-Mag issues before they arrive. I also have the HLG 650R set 36" above canopy and it's set at 60% power which is being controlled by a Trolmaster HydroX controller. The tent environment is on point with temp's running 70 when the light's off and 74℉ with the light on. I'm keeping the RH at 55-60% right now but will drop it as flowering progresses. Finally, I've been keeping the VPD in the tent running 0.85 - 1.05 which I'm happy with! 01/04- They have both been doing really well getting watered every other day and yesterday they received 0.5g each of de-chlorinated water with 3ml/g of Fish Head Farms Fish Sh!t Soil Conditioner which was then ph'd to 6.3 @ 72℉. They're both doing fantastic but were really beginning to get choked up with growth so I went in and selectively removed a few shade leaves from both to get some light penetration down into their canopies to give that lower growth some much needed light. While I was doing that I also did a little more LST on both to also increase light penetration. Well, there goes another week in our journey and I'm looking forward to the coming weeks as flowering gets cranked up! 😍👍 😎💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Much love 💚 and Grow Strong! 💪😎🤙

Esta temporada tengo varias plantas que comparten parentesco, en el caso de esta cepa comparte genes con otro de mis cultivos "Colombian Gold" otra sativa originaria de la Sierra de Santa Marta. A los dos días de poner la semilla en una servilleta humedecida, ésta germinó, ahora pasa los primeros días de vida a la luz tamizada de una ventana, dentro de un par de días comenzaré con luces eléctricas para todas las plantas, esta temporada voy sin piedad con las luces, he montado dos COBS azules de 450nm para modificar desde el inicio la forma de la planta y hacerla lo más chaparra posible. HASTA LA PRÓXIMA... SALUDOS A TODOS ================================ Info de la cepa Pablo Escobar de Divine seeds: https://divineseeds.net/pablo-escobar-fem/ "Una variedad colombiana picante con una potencia extrema que tiene su origen en las montañas de Santa Marta, la región conocida por su extravagante marihuana Sativa."

Flowering week 4 ---> Indoor plant: Nothing special this week. She stop to growing and making buds. Flowers become more bigger and dense with a strong smell.💪 The soil dry out very quickliy. I waterd it with 4lt of water (pH 6.5) and half tab of EASY BLOOM BOOSTER TABLET from Royal Queen Seeds one time the first day of the week and another time the last day of the week with other 4lt of water and half tab of EASY BLOOM BOOSTER TABLET. I removed the yellowing bottom leaves. Temperature grow box---> 22-26 °C Umidity grow box ---> 45 - 55 % Outdoor plants: They stop to growing and they start to make many beautiful big flowers. I water them with 6.5 pH water and Atami 1 Component every time they dry out. This week i waterd them with 2 lt of 6.5 pH water and 5ml/L Atami 1 Component for each plant.

She grew up nicely very healthy and strong and she produced a decent amount of organic clean cannabis, It's great and just what I work for because I'm a patient that needs to grow his weed and doing it making sure I grow them naturally and organically. The result is a very fruity and and tropical aroma, the purple color makes her even more beautiful. It's just a dream man, I love it, I just love to grow this strain, the 4 plants I grew had the same aroma very tropical and fruity, super sweet.

Super busy with a move and a big garden reno. Sorry, this is the only update for this week
