We use a soilless media so all seedlings were given a (very) mild feeding/"leeching" solution 2 days after cotyledons depleted...there really not much else to report but we'll be sure to update if anything changes. Thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone! โค๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

Finally got the Mexican sativa out of the veg tent. My LST seemed to work, but planted her just a little to high up in the pot. I still had to do a little extra LST on the top two branches to get them under the net, but she's all underneath and spread. The stems started to harden up this week, but not brittle yet, so they all went under without breaking. Seems like I'm on schedule where I'm normally at as far as horizontal growth in the scrog net without a lot of that bullshit on the bottom. I still have a few I can take some clones from though. Other than pulling a few of the leaves off the bottom near the soil, she hasn't. been touched yet as far as cutting. I reused my soil in the 65 gallon pots when transplanted after amending them. I added roughly a gallon of finished compost and worm castings I made along with the aeration mix that has perlite, course, vermiculite and rice hulls. Then dry amendments: 4 cups of alfalfa meal, 6 cups of fish bonemeal, 2 cups of crab meal, 1/2 neem seed meal, 1/4 cup langbeinite 1 cup azomite,1 cup diatomaceous earth, 1/2 cup Basalt, 4 cups gypsum.

Beginning of week 4 in flowering and everything is coming along quite nicely. plants are loving there Remo nutes! just switched this tent over to a self watering drip system cause it was getting to be a real pain watering these girls by hand. Their siting in 7 gallon fabric pots and boy do they drink a mad amount of water/nutes! the pots are just packed with roots! really loving the Remo lineup of nutes so far! go Remo! Go Sports! Buds are starting to form nicely! Started to open up the bud sites a bit by tucking what i could but had to snip a few leaves up top to open a few lower sites up trying to get through.

This week was particularly rough with the shock to the plants from overdosing on myco+ 3-0-3 Really instilled a sense of extra caution and at some level paranoia lol fortunately the plants have shown to be very resilient in their desire to Thrive and grow because a rain water flush worked like a dream

Week 5: Flower - Different Strokes for Different Folks ๐ŸŒธ Currently vibing to: Larry June - Smooth Kind ๐ŸŽต We're deep into flower now, and the girls are teaching me one of growing's most important lessonsโ€”even sisters from the same genetic line have their own unique needs. Individualized care is the name of the game. Apple Fritter & Lemon Cherry (Right) - Still Hungry! Despite last week's top dress, these two are showing signs they want MORE. Sometimes plants just have bigger appetites, and that's okayโ€”we adjust and keep moving. Last Week's Feeding: Top Dress: Equal parts (1 tbsp each) Gaia Green All Purpose 4-4-4 Roots Organic Terp Tea Bloom (direct feed) Supplement: Growganica Incredible Kelp (for bulking support) The Reality: They're still looking a bit hungryโ€”lighter green than ideal, possibly showing early signs of nitrogen or micronutrient deficiency as they push through flower. This Week's Plan: Direct liquid feed with Roots Organic Terp Tea Bloom for faster nutrient availability Another top dress to build the soil reserve back up The combination should give them both immediate and sustained nutrition Sometimes you've got to hit them from both anglesโ€”quick-acting liquid feeds AND slow-release top dressing. Lemon Cherry (Left) - The Thriving One Meanwhile, her sister is absolutely GLOWING. Lush, deep green leaves, vigorous bud development, and zero signs of deficiency. She's the poster child for what these plants should look like right now. Her Schedule: Same feeding as the others last week The Difference: Could be phenotype variation, root mass differences, or just plain old plant personality. This is why we observe each plant individually rather than treating the whole garden as one unit. Feeding Plan: Keep her on the same scheduleโ€”if it ain't broke, don't fix it. She'll get the kelp supplement but may not need the aggressive feeding the others require. The Growganica Incredible Kelp Addition Added to all three plants to support: Bulking and bud density Micronutrient uptake Natural plant hormones for flower development Stress resistance Kelp is that secret weapon in organic growingโ€”packed with trace minerals and growth hormones that plants love during flower. Key Observations & Real Talk The big lesson this week: Two plants from the same seed batch, getting the same treatment, responding completely differently. This is NORMAL and actually really important to recognize. Some plants are heavy feeders. Some are light feeders. Some have more aggressive root systems. Some are more efficient at nutrient uptake. You can't cookie-cutter thisโ€”you have to read each plant and respond accordingly. The hungry girls aren't strugglingโ€”they're just asking for more. And that's fine! Better to feed them what they need than stubbornly stick to a schedule that's not working. The Organic Feeding Strategy Moving Forward For the hungry duo: Immediate: Liquid Terp Tea Bloom feed (faster absorption) Follow-up: Top dress to rebuild soil reserves Monitor: Watch for color improvement and vigorous growth response For the thriving girl: Maintain: Current feeding schedule Observe: Keep watching to ensure she stays happy Adjust: Only if she starts showing needs Next Week's Plan Execute the dual feeding approach (liquid + top dress) on Apple Fritter and Lemon Cherry Right Continue kelp supplementation across all three Monitor bud development and adjust support/training as needed Document the differences in plant responseโ€”this is valuable data for future grows Keep the Larry June flowing and the vibes smooth โœŒ๏ธ

These buds are exploding in growth and trichomes. I do a very light defoliation plucking fan leaves here and there every couple days. Wish I would have cleaned up more on the lower of some branches for less energy waste on larf, will have to see how it finishes since this is the first time I use the SE1000 at 100% intensity. Also want to mention that ever since I switched to water soluble Advanced Nutrients pro series the growth, development, visual, size, resin, scent and flavor of the buds has been day and night. Also it lasts ALOT longer compared to their liquid bottles, this is the second grow using it.

Day 41 - Everything seems to be going great so far this is my first time using green house nutrients & the plants seem to be loving it! All 3 of my Girl Scout Cookies still donโ€™t seem to be in flower & itโ€™s starting week 7 so I am considering throwing them in my flower tent for a few days to see if that will help push them into flower but all in all very happy with this run so far, Fastbuds never disappoints! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ™๐ŸผโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿผ๐ŸŒฑ

First grow, if you have any advice, pictures you would like to see or feedback to give me go ahead :). All conditions of the plant will be what the plant is currently at in week 4. I tried to keep it as organic as possible and only cut one of the lower leafs to try to get a clone going. Also I know there are a lot of photos and is aids to go through on a phone but I try to get as much photos as I can everyday.

Spent the past week transitioning to flower light cycle. Daphni is continuing to fill out and have some good growth around the nodes in the middle of the stalk. The humidity lingers @ 55% which is fine. I'm wondering at what week near the end should I turn the dehumidifier on. The radio is still on 95.7 (Classic and Heavy Metal Rock). Daphni's color has remained good this week and she had no major or minor leaf problems so hopefully that will stay the same. I started my Final Bloom Solution today when I changed out the reservoir. I added KoolBloom and some Cal-mag to the solution and my PPM went way up so I hope Daphni takes to it well. The ABLE Grow Chamber is still performing well but I have noticed some green growth along the grooves of the RainForest 66 reservoir. Will clean it with a tooth brush and towel.

Hello, Grow Diaries family! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŒ Iโ€™m beyond excited to share the harvest report for my incredible Red Banana Pudding! This journey has been nothing short of amazing, and I canโ€™t wait to dive into the details. Letโ€™s get into it! ๐Ÿš€ ๐ŸŒฟ The Harvest After a wonderful flowering period, itโ€™s time to celebrate the fruits of our labor. The Red Banana Pudding has reached its peak, and Iโ€™m thrilled with the results! ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ‘ Visuals: The buds have developed beautifully, showcasing an array of stunning colors and a perfect density. The aroma is incredibly sweet and fruity, promising a delightful smoke. ๐Ÿ˜ ๐ŸŒŸ Harvesting Process โ€ข Timing: Harvested at the perfect moment to ensure maximum flavor and potency. The trichomes were checked and showed an ideal mix of cloudy and amber for peak effects. โณโœจ โ€ข Technique: I followed a meticulous process, ensuring each branch was trimmed with care. The process was smooth, and the final product is a testament to the love and effort put into this grow. โœ‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช Fun Fact: Did you know that Red Banana Pudding is renowned for its unique banana-like flavor with a hint of creaminess? Itโ€™s a true treat for the taste buds! ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿฐ ๐ŸŒฟ Post-Harvest โ€ข Curing: After trimming, the buds were carefully hung to dry in a controlled environment, maintaining optimal humidity and temperature. The curing process will enhance the flavor and potency, making for a truly exceptional smoke. ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ โ€ข Batches: The buds are being sorted into batches to ensure even curing and to preserve the quality of each nugget. The anticipation is building as we wait for this next phase! ๐ŸŽ‰ Pro Tip: Proper curing can significantly impact the final taste and smoothness of your buds. Make sure to store them in airtight jars and burp them regularly! ๐Ÿ ๐ŸŒฑ Looking Ahead The Red Banana Pudding has set the bar high, and Iโ€™m excited to see how it turns out after curing.

Originally wanted to sog 25 strawberry banana from advanced seeds.. Those seeds been stolen๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿ’ข So i threw 9 seeds that i already had 1 blueberry and 1 passion fruit didnt pop out, its 7 plants left so its not 100% germination rate.. Bought a new light 'lumatek 200w' cuz the actual 'lumatek 300w pro' is to powerful for this tent. So today is officialy DAY 1
