Hi legends, Day 47 of week 7 This week has seen a massive difference, 3 of the plants have started turning purple which I find strange as all the cutting were taken from the same mother plant. we also have a leaf with seed pod the same as Bnc grower, not sure what causes this anyone? but my guess is that she just wants to get germinated any way she can.. Have started to flush with pre RO water at ph 6.3, this is near impossible to ph with a meter at 0 CF, So I have to PH the water with PH 6. 7.6 colour chart. Also this week the buds are much more resinous and the aromas are fantastic, especially fruity with a very distinct peach smell. I also noted that IMO many smaller buds have not been receiving enough light and therefore not ripening as well, these will be used for making hash looking at the trichomes most still clear but on the purple plant they are mostly cloudy. Ttfn Greenies 😍

Hello. This is the end of week 4 and the beginning of week 5 of flowering. I got my 2 long and narrow paper bags out. The ones the french bread are in at the store. The ones with the long plastic window in them. I went to the male plant, that I have in a different greenhouse, and got some of the open flowers and pollen inside the paper bags. This is a good male. It has lots of flowers, not many leaves, is not too tall, and is good smelling with the "rub the stem and smell your fingers" test. And the smell stays on my fingers for a few minutes, not disappearing in a few seconds. Careful not to dump out the pollen I slid the bag over the buds I pick out. I pinched the bag around the branch and held it with a clothes peg. I gently shoock the bag to get the pollen to each flower pistil. When I closed up for the night I shoock up the bag again. I gently took the bags off the next morning, careful not to spray pollen all over the place, then went a got some more pollen for the next plants. and repeated for all 6 plants. Got some yellowing of some of the older leaves. This is sort of self pruning to me, but I will add some extra nitrogen next time to slow the yellowing. I've seen a few fungus gnats around, but nothing to worry about. Ok. The Adventure Goes On. Be Great. Chuck

Harvest day ! The plants are chopped and are hanging to dry. I put in a dehumidifier and a humidifier to control the humidity around 60%. The goal is to dry for 10 to 14 days. Then i will trim and cure them in grove bags for 6 weeks. I put the mutant straight in a zip lock in the freezer. I will make fresh frozen bubble hash (full spectrum) out of this one. I will update if the buds are dry en trimmed 🍀✌️

The plants look and feel incredible, I can't wait to do some serious supercropping later into this week. Follow along! This should be fun. Day 3 flower update: holy cow I love these plants, I am having a ton of growth and turned the optic 8s up to 100/50/25 and going to leave it here until 9/1 then switch to 100/60/50 and see how they react. Clones got cleaned out today to a buddy so we can further a couple other strains, the Chempie cuts were exquisite. Side note a little bit of nutrient burn noticed on main girl ZKWC but not anything to stress about, washing machine mother does not seem to mind a higher EC feed. The last few weeks have been a 30 second watering once a day. As of today 8/23 I am switching to 5/5/2.5/2.5 ml/g for BasisA/BasisB/StartR/Calimagic. I am obviously not an expert grower, just a guy trying to grow some beautiful big fat flowers. Take my advice with a grain of salt but feel free to lurk and watch the results! So day 4 of flower I was contemplating what my goal for this grow is, and I settled on schwazzing this grow, I did it with my first photo grow in Hydro and had awesome success on all but two plants (weaker blue dream phenos did not respond well and I had all kinds of feeding issues not entirely sure they would've made it without the schwaz either but anyways...) So yeah we're gonna try it out. Plants are bouncing back quickly from everything, I supercropping a ton to really spread the plant out and I'll be throwing a trellis back up after they have a chance to reach.

One love, growers 🇯🇲💚 So today we have the first day of Week 4(1.12.25)of vegetation, counting from the first cotyledon leaf. The girls have recovered quite well since Thursday (27.11.25) when they were topped and bent, and we are going strong without flipping from the stress. TBH, try putting other autoflowers through that much stress in the middle of Week 3 compared to Fast Buds without flipping into flower 🤲🏻 BIG UP to their genetics. They are really changing the game. What do yall think of the girls, growmies? Any tips? Btw, the fertrometr finally shows the living soil is OK, it took those little rascals long enough to make it 🐛 2.12.2025 They look so freakin beatifull i needed to shot some random short. Again and again shout out to Fast Buds team. See ya later growmies👽

Zdarec ;) Začínáme 7. týden květu a holkám očividně všechno chutná 😎 Zdají se spokojené, krásně bobtnají a začíná to být pořádně cítit 👃🔥 Palice nabírají objem každý den a je radost to sledovat. Rychlá Chew půjde nejspíš dolů začátkem příštího týdne. Teď měla týden jen základ. už jen dozrává a finišuje 🍂✂️ Na zbytek si ještě chvíli počkám, odhadem tak 3–4 týdny, ale uvidíme podle holek, jak si řeknou 😁 Díky všem za a ať to roste! 🌱💚

Que pasa familia, vamos con la segunda semana de floración de estas Gorilla Zkittlez Auto de FastBuds. La tierra que utilizamos que está en la publicación anterior es top crop all mix, aparte alimentamos nuestras plantas con Agrobeta. Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2, regando cada 48/72 horas e intentando mantener la humedad un poco alta al principio. Se ven bien sanas tienen buen color y tamaño bueno, seguirán creciendo estas semanas espero. Las próximas semanas vamos viendo cómo avanzan. Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Devo dire che le due Gorilla RQS sono contente e stanno bene nei loro nuovi vasi da 11 L ed in confronto a settimana scorsa sembrano più sane e in forma, purtroppo sono stato quasi una settimana senza misuratore PH perché mi dava problemi e quindi per una volta non ero effettivamente sicuro quanto era bilanciata la soluzione ma penso di non aver fatto danni…andiamo avanti, ieri ho sciacquato solo con acqua a PH 5.9/6 e ora aspetto che asciuga bene questa volta salgo con EC e arrivo intorno a 1250…vediamo come reagiscono 🧐😶‍🌫️

This plant drank a ton of water from early veg to end of flower. Only 3 big pH swings. Should have fed less because ppm rose about 200 a day

August 1: These clones are now next to the motherplant and august 3 will be the start of flowering when the light goes off. The nutrients are now just calmag, micro and bloom at 500ppm untill they hit week 3 flower August 10th: the clones are now at day 7 flower and they just got trimmed (lower branches and biggest leaf on top of the plants) i dont go too agressive on defoliation with this strain, on the last short video of this week u can see what i cut off at this stage, this was done at day 7 flower

Week 13 from seed. Week 9 of flower. And this one matters. Not because everything changed overnight — but because this is where the run starts showing its final intentions. One plant came down, one plant keeps going, and both are teaching something different. This week marks the point where observation becomes more important than intervention. The work is mostly done now. What happens here is less about pushing, and more about reading. Watching. Letting the plant finish saying what it has to say. From seed to now, this run has stayed simple on purpose. 12/12 from seed, steady environment, minimal overcorrection, and a consistent approach from start to finish. No chasing numbers, no dramatic swings, no last-minute magic tricks. Just stable inputs, careful observation, and letting the cultivar express itself without interruption. And that is exactly what this week reflects. One of the two plants was harvested this week — not because she was clearly ahead, and not because the other was behind, but because this stage offers a rare opportunity to compare expression across harvest timing. Same cultivar, same room, same feed, same environment — slightly different finish line. That is useful information, especially when the goal is not just yield, but understanding the medicine at different stages of maturity. This is less about “ready” and more about reference. One plant comes down now to show what this cultivar offers at this point in ripeness. The second stays standing to show what another few days may add, remove, or transform. That kind of side-by-side tells more than any chart ever will. The room itself remains unchanged and stable. Conditions are still exactly where they have been: controlled, calm, and predictable. No changes to the environment, no major changes to irrigation, and no attempt to force a finish. At this stage, consistency is the strategy. Feeding is now reduced to enzymes only. No base nutrients, no boosters, no extras — just enzymes and water. At this point, the plant is no longer building aggressively. She is finishing. Enzyme-only irrigation helps break down residual organic matter in the substrate, keeps the root zone active and clean, and allows the plant to continue consuming what it has already stored internally. This is not about “flushing” in the old dramatic sense. It is simply about removing excess input and allowing the plant to finish on what it already carries. And she is using it beautifully. This is where the fade begins to tell the truth. The shifting leaf color isn’t decline — it is redistribution. Nitrogen is being pulled, chlorophyll is breaking down, stored resources are moving, and the plant is redirecting what remains into final reproductive output. That is why the greens soften. That is why purples begin to appear. That is why red tones start surfacing through senescence and cooler expression. This is the plant using herself completely. And visually, she is doing it with style. There is color now in every direction — softened greens, faded lime, muted reds, touches of purple, and that late-flower pale glow that only shows up when a plant is actually finishing instead of just aging. The flowers are dense, compact, and fully formed. Resin is heavy. Structure is holding. Light still catches everything. The room is shining. Both plants are carrying weight well. Dense tops, compact flowers, strong stacking, and resin coverage from crown to lower sites. No loose finish, no empty tops, no weak lower structure. Even now, late into flower, she still looks composed. The harvested plant came down thick. Big structure, strong frame, dense flower, and stems with enough development to show those hollow internal channels that often appear in vigorous, well-fed, fast-moving growth. Frost coverage is heavy, texture is compact, and she carried herself like a proper finisher from top to bottom. She is now drying in a rack rather than hanging whole — not as a stylistic choice, just a practical one. Space dictates workflow sometimes, and good growing means adapting without romanticizing process. Same plant, same finish, different drying logistics. The important part is controlled handling from here. And during harvest, she gave a little extra. Fresh finger resin from harvest always deserves its own note. What collects on the fingers during live harvest is not the same material as what comes later during dry trim. Similar in origin, different in state. Fresh harvest resin is live expression — warm, volatile, aromatic, soft, and immediate. It is closer in spirit to charas in the traditional sense: resin gathered from living plant material by direct contact, long before modern processing tried to standardize everything. That matters, because what is collected in that moment still carries a different volatile profile than what comes later from dry trim. Dry trim finger hash is still resin. Fresh harvest finger resin is living resin. They are related, but they are not the same conversation. And for people who have never paid attention to that difference, this is one of those details worth learning once and never forgetting. The second plant remains standing, and she is still earning her place. Still dense. Still shining. Still building. Not dramatically, not explosively — just quietly continuing. And that is the point now. Late flower is no longer about visible daily change. It is about subtle shifts. Trichome maturity. Water behavior. Leaf surrender. Aroma transition. Hidden risk. Final swelling. This is where “not doing much” becomes one of the most active parts of the entire cycle. Because this is the stage where small mistakes matter most. Now is when you watch for ripeness. Now is when you watch for overstay. Now is when you watch for mold that never comes. Now is when you watch for trichomes instead of pistils. Now is when restraint becomes part of the skillset. She may come down next week. She may ask for a little more. That decision will not be made by calendar — it will be made by what the plant says next. And that is where we leave her. One harvested. One still speaking. Both worth listening to. Big love to everyone following this run — old heads, new eyes, silent watchers, loud supporters, curious growers, skeptics, believers, and everyone who gave this diary even a second of attention. To the GrowDiaries platform. To the community. To the people who watch closely. To the ones who question everything. To the ones who just came for pretty flowers and stayed for the process. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the feed. To the gear keeping the room steady. To the people behind the brands. To the growers behind the screens. And to both plants for doing exactly what they were supposed to do. Week 13. Week 9 flower. One down. One still glowing. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Weekly update for these lovely ladies. They've grown and grown since the last update so much I had to raise the greenhouse. Cinder blocks under the frame gave me an extra 16in. They're growing probably a foot of week and still reaching for the stars. I did switch to Athena's Bloom A & B and P&K booster this week giving 5-10ml per gallon. I really couldn't be happier with how they've grown up to this point. All in all Happy Growing.
