~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2202 ~ 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 Vivosun 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: 12/15- Here we go into the second week of veg for the FastBuds Tester #2202 girls and they're on a roll! The #1 tester has developed some discoloration on her leaf tips which tells me she's a bit sensitive to my amendment concentrations so remember to go very light on the nutrients when you start out! I'll keep an eye on her but really am not too concerned at this time. When I checked on them today they both were still moist so I let them go until I check them tomorrow. Basically at this point in the run all I have to do is make sure they don't dry out, fill the humidifier and watch them grow! 12/17- Yesterday I watered them both and increased the amount to roughly 0.25g each of de-chlorinated water with 3ml/g of Botanicare Silica Blast (added to begin to help strengthen their branches) and then ph'd to 6.4 @ 74℉. I've also increased the output of the HLG 650R's to 35% which equates to about 230w at the wall which, of course has raised the temp's in the tent so I've also begun to run the A/C unit in the grow room which is keeping the temp's now at 75℉ in the tent. The RH is running around 75-78% RH giving a VPD of .67-.74 which I'll take! 😁👍 Other than what I've mentioned above, all I did was fill the humidifier with distilled water and watched my girls grow! 🤩 12/19- Today I watered them each with 0.25g of de-chlorinated water to which I added 3ml/g Fish Head Farms Fish Sh!t and 1 tsp/g Unsulfured Molasses which I then ph'd to 6.3 @ 74℉. I'm now watering through the bottom, filling the drip pan and letting the plant draw up the water into itself. I am also watering from the top, but only just enough to moisten the medium. They're really starting to take off now, a sure sign their roots are beginning to get well developed. Their 4th set of leaves have emerged and I'm thinking over topping them in the next day or so. 12/21- Well, yesterday I went ahead and topped the #2 Tester #2202 taking off the 5th leaf set. Hopefully she won't stress out over this and starts shooting out those secondary branches. I left the #1 alone as she's not quite as vigorous as the #2. I may not top the #1 as a sort of comparison to see how each grows out. Today I watered them both with 0.25g of straight de-chlorinated water each which was ph'd to 6.3 @ 74℉. I gave about 3/4 of it into their drip pans so they can draw it up into their medium, the rest I applied to the top of their medium just to moisten it. Well there's two weeks of veg behind us now, Week Three of vegetation is beginning and they should really start to take off! 😍👍 😎💚 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! Grow Strong! 💪😎🤙

I shouldn't have started the lst training on her because she started flower very fast and early so she ended uo being very small, which I hate because It has a very skunk citric aroma very powerful, I had a little harvest of 10g counting the little flowers which I used to make cannabutter to make some edibles.I wish I could have a huge harvest of this amazing strain, looking forward to grow her again. 🤞💚🌱💎

Hi guys ... always Peyote Critical .. like in the diary with the other two sisters ... this one is following a different diet, practically Vegetarian / almost vegan .. I have been given the same care of its companies and, in addition to the soils, already awarded for the other two and a super soil created by me, I give them molasses, for about 5ml in 1,5l h2o .. Later I spoiled it a little with a dessert based on fruit created by macerating peal of organic banana (x 10 days) previously dried ...and today, Friday 27th, I finely chopped a bit of barley malt and I made a top dressing, wetting with water in mix with 3ml topmax for 3l h2o, to increase the malt action .. for more information on other, I refer you to the diary of the two without this type of SS, where I also wrote a more detailed review on light, etc. all ... "the only "difference lies in the substratum ... this is a super soil mixture, which I have been trying recently, but which worked great with other plants .... I hope you like it 🙂.... thanks for reading👍 ... the next .... Bye

Esta variedad me encanta, huelen genial y sus cogollos son super densos y llenos de resina siempre. Poca tolerancia a los excesos y es muy fácil de estresar. A pesar de todo sigue siendo una de mis variedades favoritas ya que su aroma old school con toques ácidos me fascina!. Actualizaré luego del secado y después notas de humo. Saludos!

So this week I have had to split the plants, one is really some way behind so I've managed to sweet talk the wife into letting me get another tent 😉 this plant may be behind but it's fucking massive compared to the others, plenty of decent bud sites so now she has all the space she needs. I have to feed her by hand now rather than the wilma but that's no real problem. Can't wait to see what next week brings already. If your running something similar or even if your not give me a follow and I'll follow you back ✌️🏻

Had some issues this week I think I might have over fed her and she did not take it well at all. If anybody has any feedback it is greatly appreciated!

Runtz from Zamnesia is came along from her tiny shape. Got a great clone and is also catching up. She's on about week 14 (the mother & clone on week 4). I have had to change things up a bit. The test with/out Green Sensation is still going forward. But, I'll be using Xpert Nutrients (for both mother & clone). Momma will go on Green Sensation after pre flower. The clone will be flipped on week 6-7. I won't make the contest. But, it'll still be a good test that I'm determined to finish. Giving results to show the clear difference with/out Green Sensation. I've started the mother on Master Bloom from Xpert and Co. The clone has started a light Master Grow Feed (200ppm) with Master root. Mother 70 days old Clone: 10-12 days old. Both are thriving. The mother got a little ph issues during the flip process but is fully undercontrol & has provided a good base for the test to continue without risk tainting the end results. Clone will be transferred to a 9L pot. And fed more or less exactly as the mother. (I've also got a spare clone) I'll be keeping in the veg state for the summer. As if I get really nice results from this pheno. I really want to make sure I have it again & again. Runtz been one if my favourite strains.

Day 49 - 14th Day of Flower I'm starting to really enjoy this part of the grow. That said the amount they have stretched is crazy! My lights are maxed out height wise and they are only just 18" above the tallest colas so I really hope they finish up stretching soon. Nutes: I added PK13/14 for fridays feed and they seem to have responded really well to it. They have been fed every other day as they aren't quite drying up in 24 hours. One thing I have noticed this week is the smell! They have become incredibly pungent. Everytime i go in the tent I have to change my clothes as they just smell so much. The fan leaves around the bud sites are becoming sticky! I have taken the smallest one out to photograph this week. It was sick when i got it as cutting so wasn't topped as early as the others. That said it seems to have grown into a really nice shape and has lots of buds developing. No problems really this week. Just a bit of mild light burn which I kept on top of. They will have 1 more defoliation this week and then I'll leave them be.

Je suis vraiment surpris 😲 le tronc a souffert c'est la 2e fois qu'il se fend en 2 cette fois c'est le chat qui a voulu sauter dedans je comprend pas trop il a du kiffer la plante et s'faire un kiff mais bon j'ai des gros dégâts a cause de lui j'ai réparer comme j'ai pu avec de laloe vera en gel pour cicatriser et du propolix (cire d'abeille) pour prevenir d'un état fongique. Dailleur le propolix sa a l'air de marcher je traite par arrosage quand je voit qu'il va pleuvoir +2jour a raison d'1.5ml par litre (entre 69 et 99% d'humidité en général ce mois d'août). Les têtes sont collante et grossise a fond grâce au bactobloom utilisé avant le propolix bien sur et du Green sensation de plagron. J'ai réadapter l'engrais de floraison j'ai changer pour alga bloom. La plante a eu une mini carence car le top bloom de top crop il est vraiment puissant 😂 L'odeur est légère mais pas oppressante c'est une odeur de Zkittlez/Gorilla glue donc En note de tete le sucre typé 🍬 avec des note de pin/gaz avec un soupçon de café. J'ai aussi installer un filet scrog qui ressemble à rien mais qui est efficace pour le vent et bien aéré les têtes car elle vont être dense et lourde je vais devoir surveiller les attaque fongiques de très près. Pour les nuisibles type thrips j'ai jamais eu une seule piqûre sur la gorilla Zkittlez

10/21: Harvest Day! I did a wet trim today and chopped her down. She will now dry in the same tent at about 60-62% RH. I was originally disappointed that i ended up with a runt. But she grew into a unique and cute plant. I dont think i could grow another plant that is almost entirely flower and just 3 large colas without having to work pretty hard in the training and flower timing. And so i am kind of glad that it worked out the way it did. I mean just look at her, she is photogenic as hell. The highest point in height was about 9 inches. The whole plant after trimming and being cut down weighed in at 6.02oz. Id guess that there is nearly an oz of dried bud here. I feel fortunate to not have dealt with any bud rot considering how this grew. I am not out of the weeds yet as that could still occur during the dry. Overall i am happy with this grow. It was fast as hell and resulted in a really cute little plant. 10/29: dried after 8 days. 1.16oz. I put it in a jar with a humidity pack and will cure. Might try a smoke from it in a couple weeks. It smells super fruity with hints of earth and skunk.

Two days ago I removed alot of fanleaves so light can penetrate all the way down. I was looking for a specific shape with these plants and it seems like it worked. Now it's mostly the buds that have leaves and only a few fanleaves on the bottom of plant that didnt block any light. With my next watering I'm going to reduce the amount of nutrients because there is alot less plant matter to process those nutrients. With my last grow I ran in to some nutrient problems after the heavy defoliation. So less will be more this time😁 Day 17 of flower Follow my IG @Growinhome_

Stressful to say the least, Browning pistils from Very very early however no hermaphrodites. Just can’t get my finger on where they’re at week 5 just added PK 13/14 and now considering whether I should’ve done or not they are showing signs of been ready for harvest yet don’t look done
