just finishing week 4 off the watermelon Zkittlez and if i don't say so myself she's looking brilliant really putting her roots down into this 3 gallon fabric smart pot. she's recovered from her topping lovely which led me to top two more of her bottom nodes which also have bounced back super quick this strain really is here to mess about... already having to defoliate once a week and its not just a few leave its been quite a lot considering her size.

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this new secret CBD plant from @FAST_BUDS, will turn out. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. Both seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 2 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perlite and mix it all together. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-21 The 2 sisters are doing great, Nr2 is a bit after Nr1 . Some new pics. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-23. Transplanted from humidity dome and the small germinating pots to 15 liter autopots. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-27. The girls have settled in to there new home of the 15 liters autopot after a little transplant chock. Now the real week 1 starts for me and the girls. 4 new pics. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls. Its no water for 3 days now so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics with measurements and a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. New video of the girls. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and videos. Gave each of the girls with 2 ml Alg-A-Mic, 4ml Bio-Grow, 4ml Bio-Heaven and 10 ml Formulex mixed in 2 liters of water.

KL 08.00. The girls woke up after their beauty sleep, the leaves are always a bit down after 6 h of darkness, but they will stretch now when the HPS lamp starts.

Really happy with how things are looking. 2 of the 3 plants have gotten some benders added so I can hopefully score a few more bud sites in the next few weeks. Keeping feedings low and steady- should have probably increased them a bit by now, but I’ve got some burnt tips and I really don’t want to throw things off. 🌱 👊🏻

This plant came down after 115 days of life, and 59 days of flower. I enjoyed everything about this plant for the entire grow. It didn't give me any problems with nutrients that were hard to handle. It had minor burns at the tips, but that's usually what I'm looking for in my nutrient levels - right at the limit. The plant became super smelly towards the end. So much so that I got a letter about it 😶. It got even smellier when it was trimming. I'm really looking forward to seeing how these buds will look after drying up. I'm really hoping to see extra dense buds with some heft to them.

Except for drying, curing, and smoking, this concludes my Medusa F1 grow. I harvested the plant on day 92. Overall, the plant was a thrill to watch grow. It thrived from day one, and I am more than happy with a wet yield of 336 grams given my setup. The buds are large, dense, laden with trichomes, and they have a great calyx-to-leaf ratio. I discovered a few mites on this plant and its neighbor (a Milky Way F1) in the last 7-10 days. However, the Medusa F1 resisted them so well that they barely multiplied. Or, if they did multiply, they left the Medusa for the Milky Way. The final proof of my efforts will be in the dry yield and quality of smoke. Sometimes I trim wet and sometimes I trim dry. In this case, I'm going to dry trim, so I just cut the plant and hung it upside down from a line in an out-of-the-way room that I can keep dim. There is a little circulation in the room via floor registers. I will return in due time with a dry weight and smoke report. SMOKE REPORT After drying for 6-7 days, I dry-trimmed and jarred up my Medusa F1 harvest. It was a breeze to trim because of its high calyx-to-leaf ratio. To me, that's a big plus. After 11 days in the jar, I had one bud lab-tested for potency, and then decided to proceed with my smoke report out of excitement at seeing the numbers (see below & photos). I added a ton of photos and one video to this smoke report (trimming setup, dried buds in and out of jars, proof-of-smoke video). Regarding taste and aroma, the buds smell mildly of herbs (sandalwood?) and pepper, and the same aromas carry over in the smoke. Regarding potency & effects, the bud I sampled (3 pulls) was quite strong, non-drowsy, and it came on in a quick rush. The rush peaked about 5-10 minutes after smoking, and I would describe the high as "stoney" in the traditional sense, but also "up." For about half an hour, the effects were enough to disrupt my focus -- definitely a strong high. Then, my focus returned and the sensations changed to a milder pleasant buzz, which lasted a couple hours before tapering off. The material smoked left behind nice white ash. POTENCY TESTING RESULTS TAC: 22.5% THC-A: 21.8% CBG-A: .68% Terpenes: Medium (1-2%)

37 grams and this bud is just covered in crystals, pictures don't do it justice. I smoked some early on but it wasn't the best dry/cure so I will update once I've cured for a couple weeks. Overall I'm super stoked how this grow went, looking forward to growing more fastbuds trees!!

This Update came a little bit late cuz time issues but here is it :) Last week i had solution issues and the plants go very fast in bad leaf color. The Solution got too warm in the tanks and the water got a bad smell too. I changed the water and made again the 3rd week nutrition and turned up the fan to get a few degrees colder it worked very well. Roots are so far doing nice and have no burns or rotten parts on nice and white. Then i installed the second light in. The week before i give them 400 W MH and 100 W LED. Now we have 2x 600W and 100 W LED each one turned down to 250 W and the going good. But i had only 1 bulb m MH and so im now have a mixed light end of this week i give them 1 tsp Mineral Magic over the stem to get them stronger Mostly of them are Topped and have not bad mooding on the growing stage of the plants. I hope on get a few Tips on what we can do better on the System Best Regards :) and Good Groow @all

Could have done a much better job overall but I'm pleased with it anyway as the plants produced some really nice smoke 🙌

Boom goes the stretch...the girls have just exploded! I wanted to see if Hortilux bulbs make that much of a difference over vivosun bulbs so I put one of each bulb in my reflectors and within the first two weeks the difference is astounding. The hortilux side is 15-20% bigger with much thicker stems. Other than humidity being hard to control with my 45 pint a day dehumidifier in the tent, everything is going as well as I hoped.

3/3 COP is looking great. I should’ve grown her separately because 3/4 plants in the grow tent are indica dominant. I feel that she is the only one that is showing sativa dominant phenotype and is continuing to grow although budding has started. It worries me because I only have a few more inches of space to lift my lights before I may have to super crop her. She’s drinking about 2.5-3 gallons of water every 4-5 days. I also installed another scrog net.

6/ 1AM MONDAY Slowing down now, they look good. 6am light watt down to about 90W. Should be good for the last week of just water 5.7. Calibrated 3 pH meters 2 yellow pretty good. More expensive Orange VIVOSUN was garbage. Only buy cheap ones 6/3 238pm I might take them all down and re-use the dirt into a 3 gallon fabric pot because I have a Fsst Buds Gorilla Cookies that looks like she could be HUGE if I move her. These seemed to have maxed out. 7z is the most beautiful, she is like a fountain of champagne!!!!!! Frost Banger is leafy, not big buds, not much smell and Purple Haze has a really heavy smell I dont want to lose. I will get a little less than an ounce from each, pretty small harvest but this is still experimenting with smaller than usual pots, MABYE 2 GALLONS IS THE SWEET SPOT, I will try on the next grow. 6/4 230AM they are slowing down now. I could go for 1 month or 2 longer but I will lose flavor if I do. so JUST WATER from now on. Then chop and use the dirt from these 3 to plant one 3 gallon Gorilla Cookies from a parallel grow in Tent 1. 4am They seem to be at peak flavor......MUST NOT KEEP GOING..... I will chop this week. I want them to dry out, then a flush of just water to rinse the soil for the next grow. Now I prep the soil for the next grow. All into a 3 gallon fabric pot with G.C. From FAST BUDS, that has the most potential harvest with 100% re-used soil. Senysem and Tasty Terps will be the final since as they replace all enzymes and growth engines for the next plant. Im doing Elon fast turnaround rocket grows!! with robot grow tents!! 6/5 5am SENSIZYM 2mL L & TASTY TERPS 0.5mL L, 6.1PH. 🚨 Tent REDESIGN..... the surge protector is a source of heat, so are the USB adapters for the fans and cameras... MAYBE ....cut opening, move ALL electrical outside and feed usb cables through the arms then seal off... Cut through the tent or sting cables up the arms and cut the ducting, probably easier to cut a port in the ducting. 10am SENSIZYM TASTY TERPS One turns debris into simple sugars and TT eats the sugars and give a big boost of resin/flavor. 2L of water 4ML S. 1ml TT......PERFECT RATIO.... Using this mix was perfect timing. S will liquify debris TT will provide the amino acid/enzymes eating part. Beautiful response.. THEN I put the new light in and at the same watt too bright for the plants in there, I experienced at 93 watts and they are stressed....better luck next time.... goddmanit 6/6/2025 1222am New light to 90 plants on Custom built risers, 48oz cottage cheese containers from Ralphs work great, and double as a cleaning bucket....geenis the smart me are 6/7 520am they have peaked in flavor and I think they’re ready to be taken down. because of the soil bugs I don’t think it’s a good idea to reuse the soil. It seems pretty contaminated which is a real bummer and I don’t have the resources to rinse the soil in hydrogen peroxide and go through all the sterilization and I could just end up getting bugs all over the place or the egg something like that it will contaminate the room. It’s the reason I do not grow food or other plants in the medical marijuana room I also use that room as a filter for the house. The 6 dust & 3 carbon filters are on all the time so I always have one room that has some very clean air. I can’t spend a lot cause it’s not good for your human body to be an sterile environment like that for too long & body heat warms the room 2 degrees 240pm Marshal, Will and Holly never came back, so im going to go ahead and eat their food. Plants are doing great. Sleestacks started showing up asking for weed for some reason. 6/8/25 9:02am BIG FINIsH!!!!!❤️❤️💥💥🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰🔔🔔🔔🔔🎉🎊🎊🚨💥🚨💥👍👍. ALL DONE I DID IT!!!! START TO FINISH, I ACTUALLY DID IT!!!! SMALL PLANTS ROCK WHEN IT COMES TO TRIMMING AND FINISHING RINSES AND STORAGE.....I FLUSHED ALL PLANTS WITH A GALLON OF PH5.9....THEN TRIMMED AND REMOVED FAN LEAVS ALL PRETTY, NOW JUST TO DRY THE PLANT ON THE VINE IN THE TENT, THEN CHOP, INTO DRYING TENT FOR A FEW DAYS, THEN INTO TERPLOC BAGS!!!!! 1130am. FROST BANGER AUTO. -- 8-10 OVERALL, 10-10 ON SEED TO SMOKE TIME!! VERY SHORT!!! NICE IN SMALL SPACES She is very leafy, likes bigger container than I use, she doesnt need much nutrient work bare minimum she holds lots of nutrients in her system. PURPLE HAZE AUTO 8-10 OVERALL, 10-10 ON SEED TO SMOKE TIME! Medium hight VERY heavy smell the heaviest smell out of this and 7Z and FROST BANGER AUTO. Chuncky build not too leafy. 7Z AUTO 9-10 OVERALL, 10-10 ON SEED TO SMOKE TIME! She was the MOST beautiful This is the one for show.....She looks like a CHAMPAGNE FOUNTAIN!!!!! I have not seen this before, massive pistil formation for the bubbles look.... I REALLY like this one, In a bigger pot topped would look just amazing!!!!! HOLY SMOLYl....I typed the review for tommorow!!!!!!! I HAVE to be awake at midnight for MONDAY HARVEST!!!!!!! I have lost about 2/3 of my body mass, not much of me left. I wont be around much longer kids. 6/10 1050pm 7Z.....just took a little from the bottom branch. PERFECT, she turned out perfect. 1130pm I can not figure out taste but it feels fresh, smooth, clean, refreshing.. Smoke is clean, ash is clean, water in the bong is not as yellow not as many left over nutrients....love it, will get more. 10 + 1 7Z just for beauty and smooth not disgusting overpowering high, just right!!!! 6/11 1230am getting more grovebags TerpLoc bags.....FROM THEIR WEBSITE...EVERYTHING ELSE IS FAKE. 143AM GC 🚨🚨 TOP REDSIGN. NODE 5 & 6 HAVE 2 EXTRA BUD SITES.... I USUALLY TOP AT 3 OR 4 AND THEN TRIM OFF NODE 1 DEPENDING ON MAIN STALK HEIGHT, EASIER TO WATER AND MAINTIAN. BUT I CUT OFF NODE 1 THRU 4 AND LEFT MAIN COLA. INVERTED TOP??? SHE IS GIVING ME IDAS.... I WILL TOP GOAT AND GROW AT NODE 5 & 6 GOAT 2 WILL BE TOPPED AT NODE 4 & 4.....🚨🚨
