I’m really happy with this grow. The Fanta RBX has the most orangey/mandarin aroma i’ve ever smelled. The citradellic also has a great citrus aroma, but I can’t really point to a specific smell other than citrusy. Humidity has gotten a bit better since I started intaking air directly from outside. Temperatures outside have also been very hot (which helps a lot with humidity) so the AC is staying on 24/7 from this point onwards 😭. I will probably start giving ripening nutes from next week, up to week 8, and push these ladies to produce some larger and more resinous buds. Cya next week!

👉🏽 Day 71 (5/16): Watered with ph'd RO water for the first time. Minor defoliation. I'll thinking of harvesting her at the same time as her tentmates, which will probably be around Day 75. 👉🏽 Day 75 (5/20): Harvest day! Will be doing a dry trim, so I just removed fan leaves. Now drying in the tent at 75ºF & ≈55% RH. (Will post harvest info/page after drying, since I forgot to weigh her wet.) Thanks for dropping by! 🖖🏽🌿

She is super frosty, super stinky, and she's done. I see plenty amber trichomes.

What up Growmies, this one grew hella fast maturing in 9 weeks from seed to harvest fast. Buds is true to their name. This one has some serious resin on the flowers reminding me of some sort of a gelato Gorilla glue cross, but we shall see when it's released! I could be far off lol. I had no problems growing her. She was really easy and happy her whole life. She's a great one for extractions! Thank you grow diaries and thank you fastbuds for the opportunity to show the world my organic gardening skills! I appreciate all the support from the growing community here on grow diaries. Big thanks for my followers!

Not finished with the harvest yet will update when I’ve done a second trim on everything and weighed in. The pics so far just a branch from each plant. 3 slightly different phenotypes. The buds I’d swear have a pinkish hue. Very strange colour came through in the end almost has a purple look about it. Very happy with results and yield. The yeild could be much bigger given space and time for veg but for my needs This was an awesome grow. Really nice sticky hard buds on the most. One of the Phenotypes was a bigger yield and much tighter fatter buds but all look great.✌️🏻 I should also say a big thank you to Barney’s for providing free seeds for this grow. It’s a pleasure growing your girls. So smoking this stuff properly tonight, yeah it’s good. Very heavy warm stoned feeling after a few spliffs.. my tolerance is quite high but this stuff has rocked my night. Really pleased with the results after curing for a few weeks I think I found a new favourite🤤🤤😂😂well until the next one. The buds are nice and dense and really have a nice firm feel to them. They also had a fairly decent covering of trichomes that sit in the herb well, it’s surprisingly smooth to say it’s not cured yet. It’s gonna be beautiful stuff oh yass yass yass. Update/ getting super tight now, it’s going to be very difficult to keep my hands off it for too long🤤😂 So a friend came around to see me yesterday. I let him have a good smoke of Phantom OG. He left with both fists clenched and thumbs pointing skyward. This cannabis really is top class, and really does have medicinal value. I’d say it’ll make a great stress killer for anyone I think it’ll quash any anxiety issues going on as well✌️🏻😌✌️🏻

I had to bring her back inside this week. She was still growing in the greenhouse, but stuck in preflower. She was getting taller and taller with no budlets in sight. Hhmmm i wonder??? You guessed right, SHE IS A PHOTO PERIOD! FXCK! so i had to take my Zkittles that was in preflower outside earlier than i wanted, in order to make room for this huge lemonberry haze that i had to start 12-12 on. Three days of 12-12 is starting to give me pistols....so she IS NOT an auto. She is still GROWING, and the 2 main tops are getting close to the leds. I had to tie her down using pipe cleaners and the tent frame. I sure do hope she doesn't get to much taller. I don't want the leds to burn her up, as i cannot raise them anymore. The LEDS are zip tied directly to the tent support frame and the support lines have been double looped to half their original hanging length. There is not much more i can do but start tying her down to the tent poles. THIS GIRL IS GOING TO BE A MONSTER YALL! Stay tuned! Other than the inconvenience of it being a photo, if i can pull this off with the limited space i have, she should yield HEAVY.

2/17: I spent a little time rearranging today. I bought some 32" x 14" plastic ventilated storage shelves and cut the legs down on two of them so I have some different-height platforms for the shorties in the garden. I should also be able to easily flush 6 plants in 5 gallon pots, or 9 plants in 3 gallon pots at a time now, that's a win!👈 2/18: I debated whether to feed or not, and settled on watering them with about 1/2 gallon each. including bembe, cal-mag, signal, humic acid, and a little beastie bloomz. The new dehumidifier is pulling about a gallon and a half per day from the air, so I should be able to feed them in a coupe of days. I've reached the ceiling again with my lights and the tall one is still stretching a little bit. I sure hate to have to supercrop her too...my garden is looking so wild and untamed already...😳 2/19: Rainy day outside, so I'm pulling in 99% humidity, plus the pots are still petty saturated, but the new dehumidifier is keeping up. RH is holding at about 45% today.👍 2/20: Day 31 of flower...the taller plant grew another couple of inches overnight! Damnit!😟 After emptying the closet (again) today and supercropping more branches (and some of the same branches again), a semi-solution occurred to me that allowed me to raise the lights another 3-4 inches! Now I'm truly maxxed out... These two plants couldn't be more different. One twisted-leaf 2-footer that started budding up in the first week of flower, and one beautiful 4-footer that's been very slow to flower.. The structure on the taller/sativa-looking plant is very promising, though...many long colas, and stacking up well...👌 I really needed everybody to finish in the same week so I could get my Spring autos going...😶 I'm still hoping that the big one will hurry the fuck up and finish by the EHD(3/11), but it's not looking possible at this point... I took photos and videos of all the plants today since I had to empty the closet and it wasn't a feeding day. 2/21: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including beastie bloomz, tiger bloom, big bloom, signal, bembe, and cal-mag...no grow big this time. 2/22: The tall one grew another inch...i threatened to bind her up like one of Silky_Smooth's plants if she didn't stop growing immediately. If she doesn't start budding up with serious urgency, she's gonna piss me off...my Spring auto grow must not be postponed! 2/23: I ordered some terpinator because I'm not so sure about Signal's efficacy at this point....I'm usually dealing with odors more by now..

More than a day in the drying tent and I'll give you the report on the weight, the taste and the effects! ‐----------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINAL WEIGHT : 153,5 g Effect : very pleasant. I have the impression of being in a cotton field. Taste : cream berries 🍓🍓🍓🍓 Peace to all ✌️🏽✌️🏾✌️✌️🏿✌️🏻✌️🏼 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ✔️Pheno 1 : the appearance of the flower is much more purple than the other two phenotypes. Her effect is much more sativa as well. ✔️Pheno 2 : The strawberry taste is much more pronounced. In this phenotype, there is a not at all unpleasant mint aftertaste !! ✔️Pheno 3 : the effect is felt very quickly. In a few seconds, you find yourself in a state of joy. It's very nice !!!!

Sorry for the delay on the updates guys I am a daddy of a newborn baby boy and it's really time consuming plus the Mary ladies but we keep on the great work nothing wont stop us we go all the way up! Alright here you go Day 87 Starting week 13 Day 88 Gorgeous grapefruit smells like heaven Day 89 Again sorry for the late update but being a first time daddy leaves you without time Day 90 She's gorgeous isn't she? (alright guys so what happened here was that I started flushing too early and took advise from other canngrower and instantly added again all nutes, that's why I left her a lil longer until week 14 when I started to flush again, we are going to show you very well what we did, since it was our first time we were unsure if flushing at week 11 was alright but then we decided at week 12 that she could stay longer and she did) You might say we wasted some nutes but in terms of reality we did not, because we have a full bottle of 3.7gal mix with flora nova grow and flora nova bloom in the other, measuring ppm always to make sure we got the correct amount, otherwise we add more water or more nutes depending on the plant needs but we never waste away all precious nutes are precious resources, in this part of Latin America is really hard to find anything good, so we got to bring everything from Europe or United States that's why we doing the best we can with the money we got. Hey any donations are more than welcome if you guys like what we do, yeah it's risky around here but we don't give a F. You know that patients need their medical cannabis and Id say I'm one of them And by the way very proud Peace and love canna growers We will continue to fill the grow diaries

Day 71 – Weathering the Storms, Rooted in Resilience. This past week was a true test of strength. My lady was caught in a full-on storm – strong winds, pouring rain, and yes… she even tipped over. But like a true warrior, she bounced right back once I repositioned her in a more stable spot. Despite the harsh gusts, she remained under open skies, unfazed and proud. Now standing firm at 80cm, she continues to push into flowering with grace. The Plagron Bat Guano applied 10 days ago clearly kicked things into motion, as the buds are swelling up nicely. Seeing that, I didn’t hesitate to apply another round of top-dress today – just enough to maintain steady phosphorus levels and support those forming colas without overfeeding. My approach hasn’t changed: a low-effort, fully organic outdoor grow that relies on nature as the main partner. Pure, pH-balanced tap water (oxygenated, of course) and a living super soil continue to do the heavy lifting. No tents, no fancy equipment, no synthetic nutrients – just soil, sun, and patience. This FastBuds CBD strain continues to impress not just with structure and health, but with its incredible resilience. Even after tipping and being battered by the elements, she’s standing tall and happy. Every day closer to harvest makes this journey more rewarding – and I can’t wait to craft some beautiful CBD oil from this natural survivor 🌿💚

week intel: its time for second pruning they grew up too fast and need second pruning as below : first i remove big fan leaves and only leaves then let them rest for 1 day then the second part of pruning will get done that is removing branches based on these conditions: 1-if the branch is very low and never can make it to the top , 2- if branch is in shade even after pruning fan leaves , 3- if there are too many branches at the small space then non of them will get resources so if there is no space for branch then , they must get remove. everything is perfect! stresses : pruning big fan leaves and lower branches + a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 884 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 325 ppm - 0.6 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 213 ppm - 0.4 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : no more stresses from now on till the end and from next week i'll reduce the amount of nitrogen and calcium to below half to the end.
