Week 7 is now underway and the plant has officially been switched to Overdrive for the final ripening phase. The buds still refuse to fully stack and stay relatively airy, but the plant looks very mature and heavily frosted overall. Harvest is expected in around 10 days if the trichomes keep progressing at the current pace.

Harvesting day. Short video of me cutting her down from my youtube channel. Subscriptions welcomed. Show some support. Got 4 hangers full of drying bud. See you in about 10 days for weight sign out. Thanks again

another resin monster from seedstockers, with a very special scent, full of flavors! grinded it smelled like peppermint, and vaped it has a great sweet creamy taste!

Some plants getting near to harvest, some can't even hold the weight auf they own buds anymore.

Day 56 Almost there! Bad news is I have a hermie. Found 2 bananas on my lemon shining silver haze no.2 plant (in pics) so I picked them off. Hoping it hasn’t done much damage as it’s only shown up now in the last stages of flowering 🙏 Plants are now being flushed so not long now!! Critical looks ready so she will be first, just want to get in a few more days of flushing. One love ✌️

Thanks for following

~ 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! 💪😎🤙

A planta está reagindo bem ao treinamento, continuando a crescer de forma saudável. Durante o processo, acabei danificando algumas folhas, mas nada preocupante até o dia 23. Esta semana, reduzi a quantidade de nutrientes e reguei mais com água. Minha lâmpada de 240W está em 60%. Devo aumentar? Dia 24 apareceram os primeiros pistilos. 🌱

The week was good although I had to struggle still with the RH but things are looking good ( no mold or anything for now : / ) Buds are getting bigger and frostier everyday the genetics are really off the charts ! I gave them there last meal yesterday so the flushing begins next week and will last about 2 weeks . I'm starting week 7 tomorrow and I already can't wait to finally chop these beauties down : ) I've done some defoliation but very very light like 4 or 5 fan leaves to improve light penetration to the buds. Most of the work is done by now so just gotta keep going a bit more ! Happy growing everybody ! Leeeegaliiiiize iiiit and dooooont crticiiiiize iiiit !!! : )

Looks very healthy and is a promising looking plant. Hopefully she will stretch a little bit more to catch up to the other strain. Back soon Take it easy. ********************************************

Tessa start in her Grow Week 9 and she look great. The stretch was not to much and it‘s time on day 60 for a defloration. After the stretch end you can do that, but careful not to much. I think i have done a good job, because Tessa look‘s nice, after a few days. Her buds will grow hopefully in the next week‘s and you can see the beginning.

First Flowers & Full Power 🌸⚡️ Here we go—flowering has officially begun! Week 7 marks the start of bloom for this mystery lady, and she's looking absolutely stunning. The training phase is now complete, and from here on out, she’s free to stretch upwards and show off. 💪🌿 I'm loving those slightly reddish tips on the new growth—adds a beautiful touch of color to her already elegant structure. No signs of stress, just a healthy, happy plant soaking in that summer energy. ☀️💨 She’s been treated well this week: Silica every 3 days before night Fed with CalMag, BioBizz Grow, Bloom, TopMax & Alg·A·Mic Effective Microorganisms added 4 days ago Followed up with a nice dose of compost tea 2 days later She's thriving under a great mix of sun and fresh air, and it’s honestly a joy to see how well she’s developed. Everything’s balanced, and the transition into bloom feels smooth and strong. The mystery’s starting to reveal herself—and it’s looking floral, vibrant, and full of potential. Stay tuned, the real show is just getting started! 🌞✨🌺

1/31 Week 12 Tent is full Harvested Pussy Galore FFT-7 so moved in Bambi FFT-6 and Thumper FFT-8 into the tent. Actually more room now 2/1 Swapping out the Peak for Koolbloom for a while Gameplan: Pushing Octo and Plenty to finish by weeks end so the clones may be handled. Hate rushing them but this grow is on a clock and we are behind. Clone tent placed on 12-12 time for them to get going into flower, they about 12-14 inches. Expect less than 40" fingers crossed Two clones into the auto tent space was available 4 in clone tent Auto tent is doing well plan to remove two more plants when Plenty and Octo come out Thats it for the week start with a harvest end with a harvest(s) 2/3 Labeled Pics of all tents Race between Octo and Plenty right now Octo is ahead but not much All is well(-ish) in Bondland And Octo has won the race, spent a good bit of time with the loop looking and the LSD will be ready in 3 days. Harvest date for Octopussy 2/6 this puts her at 53 days of flower 3 days short of ILGMs estimate. Plenty needs another week not surprised at all her estimate from ILGM is 70 days she wont have to wait that long. 2/5 Second bulk up is proceeding on Plenty and Octo pretty sure the Soul Peak caused it which is all we were waiting on. They are getting lumpy Octo will be chopped when this slows down doubt it was be later than Sunday but still looking at Saturday Just keeping everything as happy as we can till the space issues work out, gave clones some PK just to intro bloom nuets during flip

shes completely over grown my set up. fuck.

This is where I really started to take a lot more pictures! Everything was coming along great, I had some slight nutrient lockout starting this week but I took care of it quickly! They respond very well to the training.

Shorter plants 13”, larger is 18”. Beneficial nematodes and the sticky trap seem to have handled the gnat issue. I’m continuing to use nematodes after watering, and the traps will remain. I did a little trimming but probably won’t do much more defoliation until the stretch is over. This will probably be my last shower grow. I think it makes more sense to get a bigger space like a tent or build one and some more lights. It’s getting cramped in there. It’s also starting to reek. I water about every 2-3 days using a 1/2 gallon jug to mix my nutes. I’m keeping ph close to 6.5 and ppms between 600-800. I don’t use nutes in every watering—it depends on how the plants look. I do more frequent updates on Instagram @thefairybudmother.
