420Fastbuds-Week 6 Gelato Auto What up grow fam. Weekly update on these 3 beautiful 😍 ladies. They got moved over to the flower tent this week. Temperatures have gone up tremendously since it seems summer weather has finally got here. Over all they seem to be handling it, OK. Showing some heat stress but I think it's just an adjustment period. I'll most likely do a defoliation this week thinning it out to allow more air flow. All in all Happy Growing

Growing great 👍 gna take some cuts from her definitely i got this one bean given to me for some hard work I did so definitely gna make her potential last awhile why I know she is gna be a fire cultivar

Day 64 — The art of lazy outdoor growing continues 🌿 The sun is finally showing some strength here in the UK, bringing with it higher temperatures and increased watering demands. My girl continues her simple yet highly effective outdoor journey, happily receiving 2L of pure pH-balanced tap water per session — always oxygenated to give the water that fresh “life taste” before feeding. The recent top-dressing of Plagron Bat Guano (applied on day 60) seems to be doing its magic. The flowers are visibly thickening, pistils are multiplying, and the bud structure is clearly advancing into the next stage of development. The plant’s growth in height has stabilised around 80cm, holding steady for the second week now, which suggests that most energy has fully shifted into flower production rather than vertical stretching. As planned, my cultivation remains purely natural — no covers, no tents, no boosters — only high-quality super soil, nature’s cycles and minimal human intervention. This entire project is a personal experiment to prove how low-maintenance outdoor growing can still deliver excellent results, especially when working with resilient genetics like this FastBuds CBD strain, perfectly suited for making high-quality home-crafted CBD oil without any psychotropic effects. The plant continues to thrive under open skies, enduring the mix of sun, clouds, and rain with ease. Each passing day brings her closer to maturity while letting nature do most of the work. So far, I am very pleased with the development pace and the healthy formation of the buds. We now enter the critical weeks where flowers will bulk up further — patience and stable care remain the priority. 🌞🌿

The substrate maybe got a little hot after the last top feed so won't be adding any more probably this grow! That's my best guess for the mottling on the leaves and crispy ends - as the ends are curling up rather than straight. That's my tip for telling whether it's over- or under-fed or another issue. I'm pH testing every drop she gets (and giving between 6-6.5), so I don't believe it's lockout from a pH issue. She's getting a proper wet-dry cycle. Must be too many nutes. I flushed her yesterday and will continue with straight up water. Hasn't affected overall growth though- the buds are starting to bulk up, trichs continue to show themselves, and the smell 👌👌 it's like honey and citrus. Veeeery excited for this one ;)

The plant is showing signs of being completely ready and I decided to test the Myth of putting the plan 48 hours in darkness one plant I decided to chop it down right away the other one I will put it in 48 hours of darkness and I'm going to see if there is any true difference in flavour and taste or Racine since both plans are clones they should be identical in end so any true difference between them will show If there is any truth to the myth or put it down as a false. Despite being lots of mistakes along the way and suffering a lot from many different issues the plant has grown nicely in the garden and it has thrive in the Canadian environment. I will update later on when the plans are completely dry and I cut it for for the curing process and also for check out how heavy they are thank you for reading have a happy grow. After three weeks in curing process there is no true difference between both of them neither a bag of peel but unfortunately the one that I cut first retain more flavor and smell typical of the plant rather than the one that was left 48 hours in darkness the only thing I have not test is for rosin production because my machine have not arrived yet other than that the one that I not allowed any dark. Has better high better flavour and better smell than the other one this doesn’t mean that the 48 hrs. Doesn’t have any validation this only proves that in my garden I have no practical application for this technique . Thank you for reading have a happy grow

My grow of 8 plants in 4 cups (-->2 girls in a cup) of BANANA KRUMBLE (=Banana Punch x OG-Kush) from GREENHOUSE SEEDS is now in week 14 (counted from germination). This means they have been growing for 6 weeks and then flowering for 8 weeks. They have a VERY NICE reddish to almost purple coloration as you can see in the pics. The buds are COVERED in TRICHOMES with a thick white layer of crystals...its AWESOME to see. The plants are STICKY AS HELL, if I accidentally touch a bud my fingers stick together like they are SUPERGLUED! 😜 All side- and mainbranches have grown into BIG COLAS and are filled with hard and compact buds...simply DANK! 😎 The AROMA of the Banana Krumble plants is now even SWEETer and FRUITier than before! It reminds me of ripe bananas with a hint of cinnamon...simply DELICIOUS! The sweet smell has a 'gassy' or 'fuelly' undertone, which comes from the OG-Kush parent...very ENTICING! The strength of the smell is overwhelming strong and it surprises me each week that it can get even stronger! The 8 plants fill out the whole area of my HOMEBOX AMBIENT R120 grow-tent and have grown to 80 cm of size. The fan-leaves are starting to wilt now and turn red and yellow already, which means the plants are getting ripe now. My two layers of trellies hold up the plants well, I am glad I put them in earlier. The BIOTABS nutrients are still working well, the only thing I have to do, is give the plants PURE TAB-WATER (no need for measuring EC- or ph-value or do a ph-correction!). Its SO SIMPLE AND CONVENIENT...I LOVE IT! The nutrients are precisely measured to last the FULL CYCLE, but also not too much, so they are gone at the end. At harvest time you do NOT want any nutrients left in the plants, since that makes the smoke harsh and scratchy in the throat. A good tell-tale is the yellowing of the fan-leaves, once that starts you know the plant uses its own sugars now and all nutrients in the soil are gone. Ay havest time you WANT YELLOW leaves, a green plant mostly has NOT BEEN FLUSHED properly and then it will hurt when you smoke the dried bud! My three SANlight LED-lamps are still hanging at 40 cm distance to the top of the plants. The two outer Q4W-Gen.2 lamps are dimmed to 100% (=three green lights on dimmer ON) and the Q3WL-Gen.2 in the center is dimmed to 80% (=two green lights on dimmer ON). The plants LOVE the spectrum and light-intensity of the SANlights, its amazing to see them flourish! Until now this round is developing FANTASTICALLY and I am totally happy with the genetics from GREENHOUSE SEEDS...👍😎

Another successful grow! This strain has an intense, sweet aroma and resinous buds. Despite their small size, I'm happy with the result. ✌️

The girls are doing well they took 64oz each on the last watering and I will continue to increase as we go along. I am very pleased with the progress so far and have my fingers crossed that it will continue 👍☮️

Plants are growing! But so is my mold problem I recently got a hygrometer and noticed that my humidity was ranging from 64-70 percent which I realize is too high and maybe that is where my mold is coming From im starting to see it coming from the drain holes on the bottom of my pot. I’m going to get a dehumidifier and see how that works. Also I attempted lst to both plants . The doc og is a week older and definitely bigger than the apples and bananas but but are coming along nicely.

It's been a beautiful strain to work with, the flowrs are definitely worth it after all this time, the quality is definitely high. However this pheno of ak420 smells very different from the other 2 phenos I've grown along with her. The flowrs are beautiful, very solid and frosty nuggets, I smoked a few little nuggets when trimming but I'm excited to taste the big buds, hope you guys enjoyed the process. I want to say that this pheno #1 has a different smell compared to the other 2 phenotypes of ak420 that you can see here on my page as well, so stay tuned guys! Overall result is very nice, good quality, strong weed, sticky, stinky. I can say that it's very great and also you can get them for a very cheap price so it's a very good investment if you're looking for a powerful and affordable strain. Cheers growmies! ❤️💚💛💎👨‍🌾

Put the plants in a environment (-> tent) where I could control temp. and humidity better. Plants #2 and #3 moved from their 200ml pots into 8L fabrics on day 25. Could have waited a few days with that, since barely any roots where visible. Applied some Dynomyco and water with very low amount of Hesi TNT to all plants on day 25. At about this point my excitement grew, since growth was finally accelerating and a little smell proofed that this was at least the right kind of plant. Slowly introduced the GCxSolo at about 35cm distance on day 19 and increased its output from 25-100% over 2 weeks.

04/02/22: Had some mishaps - I visited the grow room and various branches had fallen over due to the weight of the buds - big problem with large sativa breeds. I managed to use large garden sticks, cable ties and plastic clamps to secure them. Other than this plants all looking fine fine fine - large colas throughout - some are even starting to show brown pistils. smell is strong.

15 seeds germinated. 100% success rate. Seeds have been planted in a mix that has volcano ash and bat guano. The mix gets the seeds off to a great start without the worry of adding nutrients. Over the next few days they'll receive water twice a day. We water about 100ml at a time 3x a day. We water in circular motion to encourage the roots to grow out.

Beginning of week... Beginning of first flush week! So excited!!! I put 4mL of FloraKleen into 3L of pH'd water.. Going in: 160 PPM.. Runoff: 700 PPM.. I may run 1 more flush of FloraKleen through the medium in the AM.. Will be updating on the runoff as I go.. Just makes better sense to check runoff to me.. I know some people dont do it.. And claim its pointless.. But I think runoff tells you ALOT.. I think the runoff reading is just from what was built into the medium still.. I just like to make sure she's getting nice and flushed for a good while.. And if the trichomes arent where I want them to be at the end of the 2 week flush I will flush for another week.. But only if needed.. Anyways.. Hope these 2 weeks fly by cuz the week before this didnt at all! Lol.. Next day.. Today is day 2 of flushing.. Used FloraKleen once again.. This time the runoff came out at 640 PPM.. Gettin there lol.. Tonight I'm going to just run 3L of pH'd water and same tomorrow morning.. Will update in the AM Later that night.. Lol.. This time the runoff came out at 750 PPM.. I'm guessing its just more nutrients that were built up in there.. Jeez.. So tomorrow I am just going to flush pH'd water in the AM and in the PM.. With more updates on how that goes.. I also lowered the light down to 12 inches from the tallest colas.. According to the PPFD chart Mars Hydro has, the tall colas (but outside of the footprint) should be getting close to 800 PAR and the shorter (but in the middle of the footprint) should be getting.. Roughly around the same I suppose.. The inside branches are still about 14 - 16 inches from the light.. Wish I would have been able to keep the canopy more even.. But I went with a LST technique that helped me keep all the branches instead of removing some.. Like instead of bending the plant over (to make a "T") to where some branches should probably just be removed because they are going straight into the medium lol.. But this time I tried to bend her over a little different (to make an "X") so that all the branches wouldn't be going straight into the medium.. Idk.. something I've been trying to figure out on my own lol.. But I think I prefer the "T" because it is easier to keep each branch, and it's twin, fairly even throughout the grow.. But I'm still happy asf how this grow has gone so far.. Should have lollipopped a bit too.. But I still enjoy smoking every last bit of these ladies.. And if they are too popcorn-ish, I'll just throw them in a bubble bag with the trim.. Still gonna be happy with the outcome either way!!! Autos are fun.. But I think I still prefer to control when flowering begins.. I know a 2×2 isn't ideal for this.. But I really wanna try to ScrOG a girl in this tent! Just to give it a shot and see how much of a difference it can make in yeild.. Anyways.. Will update tomorrow with the runoff and whatnot!... NEXT day after THAT (Almost mid week)... This AM the runoff came out 444 PPM.. Since I already mixed some pH'd water, I'm gonna use it later tonight.. With an update.. Lol Later that night... Runoff is still coming out about 400 PPM.. Decided to check the pH and the runoff is coming out at 7.. The fuck!? Maybe I forgot to pH earlier this week.. Idk. Whatever lol.. Mid week.. Runoff came out at 333 PPM this morning.. Just going to go back to one watering a day till harvest now. Hope I can get it down to 200 PPM or lower for the last week at least.. But still not sure if I will be letting it go an extra week or not.. We shall see how it goes till then.. The nug I attempted to pollinate didnt take.. Guessing the pollen was too old.. Trashed it.. It was feminized pollen but wasnt the greatest genetics either.. So no loss there.. But the nug looks kinda pathetic.. The pic shows it next to its sister nug and that one still looks good.. Maybe cuz Ive been fucking with it alot.. But whatev.. Shit happens.. May still keep updating the runoff daily.. May not.. See how I feel tomorrow lol Next day.. Runoff came out at 330 PPM again this morning.. Not bad, I suppose.. Alot lower than what its been before I started using this Brita filter lol.. May use Florakleen once more at the beginning of the next week.. Then just water till harvest. Just to see if I can get it down a little more. If not, I'm sure it'll be fine. The fan blowing on the undedside of the light slipped off the pole and was chopping away at one of the colas.. Luckily none of the buds were damaged.. Trichomes definately got knocked off tho lol.. And mostly leaf damage.. This girl smells so fucking amazing.. The colors are awesome.. I don't think I can find another strain to top this one lol.. We shall see tho... Almost end of week.. Runoff came down to 280 PPM this morning.. Niceeee.. I can live with that.. As long as it's not 400+ PPM I think it should be fine.. The main top cola is showing a nice amount of cloudy.. And the very bottom 2 stems are cloudy also.. But the rest of the plant seems moslty clear but also have some cloudy/milky along with them.. I can find a few amber in spots.. Will be updating with pics tomorrow along with some trichome shots!!!... End of week.. Today's runoff came out at 260 PPM.. Niceeee.. I tried to get alot of trichome shots but I just don't have a steady enough hand.. A couple colas have some amber coming it on the very top calyxes.. Some colas are cloudy.. Almost there!!! Not sure if I am gonna take this just 1 more week or 2 more weeks.. We will see how she looks at the end of the next week... As for now.. On to the next week!!!...
