This week marked the final chapter of this journey. After 17 days of sunny, dry conditions, the sudden return of damp, humid weather and low airflow triggered internal bud rot (Botrytis) deep inside the main cola. Despite regular inspections and careful care, it developed rapidly in the dense core. I removed the affected top to stop further spread, but it was clear β€” nature had made her decision. The plant gave her all and was already in the final ripening stage, so I’m grateful for what she produced. Lesson of the week: Even outdoor autoflowers can fall victim to mould late in flower, especially in humid coastal climates like Ramsgate. Next time, I’ll cover my plants during the final weeks to protect from dew, humidity, and stagnant moisture. Big thanks to FastBuds for a strong and impressive cultivar β€” this was a powerful pheno with excellent structure, trichome coverage, and strong medicinal aroma. The genetics were solid; this was simply a weather issue. Every grow teaches us something. Grateful for the ride.

This lady is showing beautiful roots and a fast growth pace, let's see how she keeps developing every day guys, finally this beautiful lady was Transplanted on February 2nd after 17 days planted from seed because I thought it was the right time considering her size and also because the pot was completely conquered by those super healthy and strong roots, let's see how this lady keeps performing so far! πŸ’›β€οΈπŸ’šπŸ‘¨β€πŸŒΎπŸ’―

Day 63 Flower (Day 105) I'm back! Iceland was breathtakingly beautiful as usual, and I even managed to see an active volcano. Amazing! I have good news and bad news regarding my girls. The good news is that they are both still alive and are overall looking pretty good. The bad news for the left girl is that the cheap irrigation system failed and only watered around 1 liter of water during the entire week. She was extremely thirsty, although still looking pretty good without any drooping. A couple of her leaves turned purple from the stress, though. I recorded a video just as I opened the tent for the first time after coming back a couple of hours ago. The news is worse for the right girl, though. The irrigation system worked flawlessly, so that wasn't the problem. Instead, I detected bud rot in three buds, and of course, it was in the three most significant colas. Fuuuuuuuu... I also shot a video as I opened the tent, and the affected buds are visible if you are paying attention. I have never had bud rot before, so I will need to do additional research on what to do next. I immediately cut off the affected buds and disposed of them outside. I hope I got all the affected areas, but I will inspect all the buds more closely tomorrow. Been traveling most of the day today and need some rest before scouting her buds. I looked at her trichomes quickly and still couldn't see much amber, but I will have a better look tomorrow. The worms have been busy while gone, though, and they were crawling all over when I lifted the old avocados. They aren't the only ones who have been busy as the fungus gnats are back, Sigh. Only a few so far, but yeah, another thing to sort out. The fun just never ends...

7/18 I'll make this week a six day week to get back on track since i didn't last week. Rhis has been INCREDIBLY challenging for me to be away from my plants for this long. It will be six days. I'm leaving early to come home and water. We are supposed to get thunderstorms. Not sure if we did but it's only 11am. All pics so far are ones sent to me this morning. It rained a little bit yesterday. I have a lot to do in the garden. I need to assess Amy damage. Probably water (depending on weather), defoliate and hunt pillars. I may decide to spray and I may not. Depends what I see. Plants are getting big though. I'll need to add the second set of supports. I'm hoping I come back and find inch long buds like I did last time with those mendo breath that flowered super early two years ago. I just want to see my girls and take a big deep breath of their smelly goodness. I need to check for deficiencies as well as i usually started nutes by now. Tomorrow morning I'll do a video when I get back. UPDATE: AROUND 7 O'CLOCK MY INTUITION OR AS I CALL IT "MY SPIDY SENSE" STARTED TINGLING. IT HAD BEEN EARLIER BIT I IGNORED IT. I PLANNED FOR TWO THUNDERSTORMS WE GOT HERE AND WERE SUPPISED TO GET AT MY GROW BIT DIDN'T GET. I FIGURED THE GIRLS WOULD BE OKAY BUT I COULD FEEL THEIR PAIN. I COULDNT REALLY TELL THROUGH THE CAMERA IF IF THEY WERE DROOPING BAD SO I HAD DAD GO LOOK. HE DIDNT RESPOND WHICH PISSED ME OFF. I TOLD HIM THIS MORNING TO KEEP A VERY CLOSE EYE ON THEM AND IF NEEDED TO WATER THEM. NOT WANTING TO ASK TO MUCH OR I WOULDVE JUST SAID DO IT. HE WATERED EACH PLANT A HALF GALLON AND SPLIT A GALLON WITH THE 10 GAL AND THE 5 AND 50 GALLON SEEDLING CONTAINERS. I'M GLAD I CAUGHT THIS. I NEED TO INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF WATER. AT LEAST I HOPFULLY WONT COME HOME TO DROOPING PLANTS. THAT WOULD BE A KICK IN THE NUTS. I'M NOT GOING ON VACATION DURING GROWING SEASON AGAIN. I CANT WAIT TO SEE MY GARDEN. 7/19 Came home to the plants looking okay but very light and needing water. All expected storms missed us so what I planned for water wasn't enough. Plus they are much larger. DAD WATERED ALL CLONES WITH A HALF GALLON OF WATER AND THEN I GOT BACK AROUND 10ish AND GAVE THE PLANTS ANOTHER FULL HALF GALLON. THE GMOs ARE DEFINATELY WATER HOGS. I've noticed some interior leaves fading so I'll start nutes soon. Saw some pillar damage (and the pillar in a picture dad sent) and went hunting. I caught 11 caterpillars!!! Three different species. A big green one that rolled into a ball. Yellow and green normal moth larvae and an inch worm the color of an earth worm! I found no eggs though. I took a video, but I'll have to wait to upload it. Luckily, my intuition is on point, and I have family that will help me. All it takes is a day of this heat advisory over 100f weather and the wind to dry my bags right out! I don't want to over water, but 10% is 2 gallons in the 20s. I'm upping the water to a gallon a plant. The event horizons seem to be a little further in flower and don't seem to be using AS much water. I'll play it by ear. I was going to spray bt but having caught double digit pillars I think I'll hold off and do what I'm doing. I can always spray later if needed. 7/20 Checked my plants late and noticed they were light and starting to droop. I had one gallon mixed up so I gave to what was worse. They seemed like they would be OK until after my wife's doctor's appointment. I got back and EVERYTHING but one event horizon were starting to droop and light as a feather. This was after I gave them half a gallon yesterday afternoon and dad gave them a half gallon the late night before. The plants are just too big and with this heat they need more water. I mixed 8 more gallons amd gave each plant a full gallon. Used another gallon earlier in the morning so a total of 9 gallons was used on the garden today. I defoliated what I could. I noticed a hole in my cage as well. A lathe broke and it left a small hole for an animal to crawl through. I found a small lathe and got the drill and went around and repaired the cage. I have a lot more to do. Some serious defoliation. I need to start nutes and I need to add the second supports which is a trellis. That way I can LST. The cages kinda hold everything close together but once the supports are added things while be spread out much better. Much more room this year. I need to switch the plant in the 10 with the flowering event horizon to better utilize space. Dad says these are the best looking plants I've grown. I don't know if I agree but the are really thick. Could just be the strain. I'm certainly not complaining. Things look good. If I can hunt pests myself I'd rather do that than spray chemicals. Got a few more pillars and jpn beetles. Took a video but it won't upload until tomorrow. 7/21 It was definately a good idea to up the watering amounts. If not they'd probably be dead. They are growing at a significant rate. Some seem to be in early flower. I have damage from pillars but considering how many I've caught from hunting im still on the fence about spraying. I probably still should. I went through abd manually removed as many as possible. When I went over this morning I checked the weight of every plant. Every plant was noticeable lighter than after I had watered them yesterday. That kinda suprised me. My water hogs were actually significantly lighter. We haven't been getting rain either. I'm going to have to water every day. I think a gallon a plant should be enough. 10% is 2 gallons though. I'd rather understand water than over water but I'd like to get it so I'm not watering every day. Or every other day which I'm sure is what will happen. I'm planning on having to water tomorrow. I'm still going to mull over whether I should apply the BT tonight or not. I probably should. They aren't a problem now but further in flowering they wreck havoc on flowers. Eating and shitting and spreading mold every where they go. There's no way I got all of them. I keep saying it but never do it but I should get netting. That would basically solve this problem. Oh, didn't get a chance to upload the video I made. I'll do it tomm. UPDATE: THAT "SPIDEY SENSE" STARTED TINGLING AGAIN SO I DROVE TO INSPECT MY PLANTS. ITS BEEN SUNNY AND HIGH 80S/90. ALMOST ALL PLANTS WERE DROOPING. SOME WERENT FEATHER LIGHT BUT THEY WERE LIGHT AND DROOPING. THE WIND WAS WHIPPING AND WHEN IT DOES THAT IT DRIES THOSE BAGS OUT QUICK. INTERESTING ENOUGH THE EVENT HORIZON THATS IN THECMIDDLE OF THE CAGE SURROUNDED ON ALL SIDES ABDCPROTECTED FROM THE WIND STILL HAS WEIGHT. IT LOOKED A LITTLE DROOPY BUT DOESNT GETCTHE WIND THE OTHERS DUE. IM WONDERING IF I COULD BE OVER WATERING THAT ONE PLANT WITH THE FREQUENCY OF WATERING. THE SOIL WAS DUSTY AND DRY BUT WHEN I STUCK MY FINGER IN SOME DIRT STUCK TO IT SO I DIDNT WATER THAT ONE PLANT. I MIXED UP EIGHT GALLONS OF WATER AND GAVECEVERYTHING A GALLON. I GAVE A HALF GALLON TO THE PLABT IN THE 10 AND BRIEFLY HIT THE CONTAINER PLANTS. THE REMAINING HALF GALLON WAS ADDED TO THE PLANTSCTHAT ARE USING THE MOST WATER. GMOS WERE USING MORE THAN ANYTHING BUT THAT SHERB PIE AND TOASTED TOFFY SEEM TO HAVE CAUGHT UP. LOOKED FIR PILLARS BUT COULDNT FIND ANY. ILL UPDATE TOMORROW. IM WONDERING IF I SHOULD GO FOR A GALLON AND A HALF EVERY TWO DAYS OR A GALLON A DAY DURING THIS HOT WEATHER. LUCKILY I CAN KEEP AN EYE OUT AND FIGURE IT OUT. I HAVEXA COUPLE PLANTS THAT ARE TRANSITIONING TO FLOWER. EXCITING TIMES! OH AND AFTER WATERING THE GIRLS PICKED THEMSELVES RIGHT BACK UP. I KNOW ITS NOT IDEAL BUT ITS BETTER TO UNDER WATER THAN OVER WATER. I STILL HAVE NIGHTMARES ABOUT FUSARIUM. 7/22 Much cooler day. It's 74 at 9:40 bit it was 60 earlier this morning. With the cooler weather I'm hoping I won't have to water as often. I think I hadn't been giving them enough water at a time for the conditions. I'm not going to water again until all bags are super light. That's what I had been doing but I don't want my plants getting to the drooping phase. Luckily I check on them multiple times a day and I've got the cams. I caught approx half a dozen inch worms this morning. I'm wondering if I should still spray. If I'm catching this many there has to be more. I'm not removing the damaged leaves if they aren't bad so it's hard to tell if it's new damage. It was extremely windy yesterday. I assume that is what helped dry the bags put so much. I already doubled the water intake so I don't want to do anything else until I see how this turns out. I figure I'll have to water tomorrow. We are getting some rain in the next few days but not much. 7/23 This will be the last entry for this week so I can get back on track. If you've been following along you'd see that I had pretty much doubled my watering amount due to it not lasting until next watering. I take the weather reports I to account. They have really been passing me off lately. On vacation we were supposed to get two large storms at my grow. We got ZERO rain amd it just followed me to my vacation (where the weather WAS supposed to be sunny) and poured some of the heaviest shert rain I've seen. Now after I over watered my plants (just a litttle) I found out the weather changed. Today, tomorrow and Wednesday we were supposed to get TINY amounts of rain. It totaled like .35in for the 3 days. I'm thinking cool. Instead it get changed last minute to supposably get an inch of rain JUST today. It was sheet rain earlier but it has totally stopped raining. The GMOs aren't really over-watered (too bad at least) and look normal. Nothing looks BAD. I can just tell by the weight that some of these girls are overwatered. That's OK though. If we get any wind (which we should) it will dry those bags out quick. With the gmos and that sherb pie it would be very hard to overwatercto the point where it hurts the plant. I just need to realize the GMO'S just use more water. They are asparagusing right up. Event horizon is in early flower. Everytime I go to my grow I'm able to kill multiple pests. I got at least 5 moth larvae, a couple moths, couple leafhoppers and I missed this giant grasshopper that had been going to town chomping leaves. I think it's time to start nutes. I also think I'm going to spray either BT or captain Jack's after this rain. I don't need pillars come flower. Since I can SEE multiple pests it might be best to use something broader like spinosad but we will see how it goes. I also need to switch a couple plants for better room, defoliate and add the trellis and second set of supports. The first support kinda keeps the branches together so I need to lst and tie down branches to open up the plant.

So she 'only' grew 4cm this week.... Considering I tried to kill her last week this is pretty good. She's got some good growth on her this week. Got a lot bushier! I hope she's got started on her root system ready for flowering 😎

Still the same treatment! as it seems to work. I make sure to keep it over 400ppm. I notice conductivity (the nutrients in the water) goes well up when I throw many slugs! No more water from the canal, since it rained enough. I have lots of mosquito larvae, so I try to give them everyday, to reduce the number of moskitos (they don't bite very hard and are really slow). Cheers!

Heavy dense buds, covered in sticky frosty trichomes. Candy Kush is a true joy to watch grow and I think she'll be sticky around in my garden for a while. Will update in 6-7 days with the dry weight and smoke report.

The plants are growing and getting fatter and thicker by the day. I can see shoots of red pistins on the flowers and they are very sticky. The smell starts to be noticeable but I have a carbon filter so I'm sorted for now I do consider to bring ac unit

Girl is looking healthy and i transfered moss pellet when i saw root coming at bottom in 11L pot with Biobizz All-mix and about 5-10% coco with clay pebble drainage at bottom. Used mychorizza too in transplant hole to help roots growing at start. Pretty sunny days with little bit rain almost every day but little bit too cold this week. 13-15C at days and few night dropped 4C otherwise 8-10C. Day 1: Started counting veg at 24.5. Day 4: Transfered moss pellet in 11L pot.

64 days since switched to 12/12.Time passed really quick. I decided to keep these for 1 more week since they just bloomed for one more time.Trichomes are showing mostly cloudy with a little clear left.Looking for %90 cloudy %10 amber.Hopefully will get it this week.Size of the buds are getting bigger everyday.Buds are really dense and smelly .Expecting to harvest on friday.Plant will spend his last 24 hours in complete darkness and will be cut down before light come up.I will flush on last watering.Hoping for it to be enough.Since l have to dry in the room that i grow,i will cut them all at the same time.

The plant looks super bushy and also very very strong and happy, she's growing super fast, and she's also enjoying life man, really happy to see this lady enjoying, she has been mainlain ed by removing the main stem and allowing the 4 secondary low ones to become the main ones, after that she got topped on each main apical and that's how we have now on week 9 this beauty, a fat runtz muffin bush! 😍
