Day 57: 5 days of running RO water, and the ladies starts to show some minor Calcium deficiency, and Phosphorus Excess. at least this is what I think it is. About the Phosphorus Excess goes also very well with BIG plants advice against running Stimulus and Bud explosion at the same time. I have been done this for 2 weeks. (they actually have one week of this in early flowering in the feeding schedule, but generally advise against it) So I will take Bud Exp. out in the next mix. For the Calcium deficiency I will ad some more B, as I already are on the low side of the recommendation. The mix with RO water is a little tricky. before I've added only half the dosage, but now it seems like I need to ad accordingly to schedule, to make up an EC of 1.2 I am still adding 2x1 L for every lady a day Day 59: All ladies received another LST training. I have received the Mars Hydro TS 3000W and set it up. Day 63, the Fat banana, is killing it, it is a beast, OMG it is so bushy and around 65 cm high now, but the flower is still small. the biggest one has some dark color on the leafs expanding from the flower. The main stem is so thick. around 3 cm. I took all ladies out today and I notice that the FB was almost dry. perhaps it is not getting enough water. I will increase the fertigation to 3 times a day for the FB Day 63 the Stress killers are also looking amazing and just smell good, very citrus Trimmed out all the lover and small flowers, I don't think they will develop.

6/27-8/3: In my time away, Ms. Cookies did great. She was quickly drinking down her water through the self watering base and she ended up eating all of her nutes, leaving some signs of these deficiencies when I got home. In addition to that, the soil pH was a little high at 7. So with these 2 deficiencies in mind, I flushed her with plain 6.0 pH water to bring the soil pH down, and I also amended the soil with some All Purpose 4-4-4 and Power Bloom 2-8-4. I also did some light defoliation of some larger fan leaves Overall, the plant is looking great. Had a minor setback with the deficiencies but it was honestly expected since I wasn't home to watch her closer for 2 straight weeks.

Left um 4 days over Christmas being a lazy bum and come back to half a tent off yellow a lot of fan leaves are looking sickly / fell off altogether most yellow leaves have been pulled off plants lost a lot of they fam leaves all in maybe abit too many , it’s hard because one person tells ya leave um all on and another person will tell ya take um all off so we just been seeing what works ourselfs and still ain’t got the foggiest , when ya rub the buds you get hints off lemon / pepper and fresh dog shit 🤣🤣 as I say we have um last feed of nutes this week and started to flush um they take about 6 litres of water through the pots untill any type of coloured run off and we only have 100l so 3 days at it we got through about 10 plants and we gave up 🤣🤣 so again intrested to see the finished prouduct if flushing does change the taste of the smoke , saying this the plants we have flushed seem to be looking alot more healthy than the ones we haven’t so deffo leaning towards a lockout or too high nutes for the girls , alot of rusting and alot of burnt frazzled tips one plant we chopped early and didn’t even get a gram of smoke able off it just alot of leaf n skinny buds , it being a first time go at this I’m not really too disappointed with the outcome but deffo kicking myself at how many I rammed in togther , some of the top Kolas are looking 10/10 but other than the top kolas the rest ain’t worth a wank to me , all in all learnt a lot though so excited to finish this one up and get cracking with number 2 I’m leaning towards bud Buddha seeds cheese puffs after smoking some zheez that’s going around the country at the minute cheese x zkittles , anyway happy growing people and don’t forget to drop a comment if you have anything to say or ask

Well as always I'm super happy with what the team over at @fastbuds are doing ! To be honest they were my first auto flowering brand I tried and they sponsors that grow because they like helping growers. Easy to approach and great customer service I have not been disappointed yet and this strain here is a keeper . I wish I could bottle the scent up and keep it forced 🙂. In the beginning I wanted to grow her out in a Christmas themed container do she was put into a snowman ⛄ deal placed into a 2 gallon pot . The soil and all additives are organic , living soil a Canadian company blend . She honestly was knocked out twice from her container and her size is tall but not many buds I stressed her out a lot . If she wouldn't have fallen out and been in a 4-5 gallon container then I would be even happier . The scent alone makes up for the size I could smell it all day . Never have I smelt an auto flowering strain like this before . Over fruity like ripened strawberries and lots of gas to be had as well . Today I decided to chop her down and make room for the next generation a head . The fact is that I enjoy all strains and don't care whether it's an auto or a photoperiod this company makes some fine plants and have been in my garden for almost two years now they are my go to auto flowering company ..cheers We got a smoke report going now and it's a bomb smoke I can't believe this was what I got . So much fruity and earthy undertones with such sticky buds I'm in love .. wish I had this whole plant in my garden it's fire smoke a great indica buzz

Completely forgot to update like an idiot, but these videos were taken two days ago. Pheno 1&2 are both male, so I'm just hoping this last one is female. I might flower when I get back from vacation to just speed this process up but I guess well see.

The fimming does what I wished. The single headbud, „twin‘ed“ into 3 headbuds. The fimming also stops the vegetation, but most times luckily only the node of the headbud! Then does the twinheadbuds build a roof-crown with the other nodes.

Good news everyone, we reached week 6 and everything is going smoothly. I did add some trellis rings to keep her spread out and the automated will probably be set up tomorrow. 11.07. My pump is weak, but water is flowing. Did add some shelving to make sure the hydro halo is not siphoning the reservoir. At the moment I am watering for two minutes every 12 hours, will tune the interval over the next few days. I did stop the foliar feeding for now. 14.07. The watering interval is down to 90 seconds every 12 hours, I still need a stronger pump, it is working but the halo should splash out way more water and all the substrate should be rinsed, room for improvement. 15.07. not a lot happened today, the watering interval seems to be okay, will probably add some more support braces, just to have done something. 16.07. Did nothing, I am occupied with renovating our house.

Day 78 from seed touching soil. #1 was eaten by bud rot, really heavy, buds all in dirt, she was very low, overstreched from lack of light and water, so went all to bin. Two plants were worthless, last hope on late one . #2 is still going, shows preflowers, big plant. Happy Growing !!!

12/03/19 So there hasn't been a lot going on in terms of healthy growth. It seems I've been giving nutrients too often and that the pH of my water is too high (7.8) resulting in a Calcium defficiency and stunted/abnormal growth. Following some great advice from Bulbi to one of my questions. I've bought some Cal-mag and pH down to try and mitigate this issue, I've done the following :- : 1ml Cal-Mag to 1l of Water per plant : 2ml Cal-Mag to 1l of spray bottle to be used infrequently : I haven't pH reduced on this watering as I noticed the Cal-Mag slightly reduces the pH, so to not shock the plants I'll lower the pH marginally on the next 2 feeds untill it's at 6.5 : Raised the light to 45cm : Changed the lighting schedule to 18/6 Let's hope these few changes will bring these lil babys back to life! I'll post some mid-week pictures to show any difference.

Ok so this week I did a defoliation and a tigh down too the netting , I really was not planning on doing such a big defoliation but the leafs became thick and dense and there was almost no light penitration down too the lower branches of the plant , so she is opened right up now and the humidity and temperature has dropped loads and the air is moving alot better around the leaves and branches , I will not take anything more off her now , I have also added Cal mag too the nutrients for this week only , she is well into pre flower now but the stretch has not yet started so I figured it's no or never too defoliate and tigh them down , I am very happy with them so far and being new too all this it's all very exciting , Thanks for looking :)

Hey y'all week 8 in 3 days and things seems to be going not half bad. There's yellowing going on and I think that's due to me not checking my runoff and not correcting but they are in ranges of 6.4 to 6.8 ehhhh I know. But won't let that happen again. Besides that have you seen the frost on these lady's so far, especially for Pheno 1 she is super frosty and has a nice 🍇 🍋 smell that keeps getting better by the week. Pheno 2 smells like lemon citrus and Pheno 3 has a nice 🧀 🍇 smell going for her. Pheno 4 on the other hand is very subtle at the moment but I'll keep my fingers crossed. Till next week growmies Happpy growing y'all 🤙✌️

Fifth week of flower and it was time to defoliate the indoor units as they were starting to get bushy and block exposure to the lower bud sites. Quick work with the bonsai shears and they were ready to soak in the sun. I left the rooftop plants alone as I believe having additional leaf mass enables them to withstand temp and environmental fluctuations better. Whether or not this is the case, it was an experiment.

These ladies have started their final stretch. Pink kush will be the first one I harvest, I’m just waiting for her to put out a few amber trichomes and so far she has none maybe within the coming week. Canna-cheese has maybe 2 weeks left. She has the nicest fade I’ve seen so far out of the plants I’ve grown, but she for sure needs to get fatter. Strawberry Skywalker is short but thick, she’s barely starting to fade so I thunk maybe in 3 weeks she’ll be done, still no amber trichs and I’m sure she will get much fatter. Alien berries has surprised me. She was the runt and although a slim plant in veg, she’s putting out some fat knuckles, maybe in 3-4 weeks she’ll be done. Over all good conditions except for a couple spikes in heat a few days. Still no intense smell either.
