In all honesty I'm not sure if I got the nutrients dialed in . I tested runoff and it was all within range of soiless mixes , calibrated my ph meter every watering as I thought maybe that's why I was getting yellowing leaves . They are still growing and budding rapidly and seemingly on par with what I've seen with others in like mediums so I'm trying not to worry too much . My carbon filter shit the bed already so my Mrs isnt happy with me today as my whole basement wreaks . The plants went from not too bad to wicked bad smelling within a couple days . I've been defoliating but do you think I should do more ?

I'll have to come back with a smoke report

They've been drying for 14 days. They smell great and look frosty.

Week 9 flowering

This is my fisrt autoflower grow with no LST and only mild defoliation..

420Fastbuds-Week9 Strain:FBT2308 What up grow fam. Weekly update for these gorgeous girls. They're definitely getting close to being done and getting the chop. I did a defoliation this week to allow the light down to the lower bud sites. All in all Happy Growing.

Plant is the smallest of the bunch and seems to be showing a bit of elongation mutation at the beginning but she’s still green and growing. I’m sure she’ll grow out of this stage soon. Can’t wait to see. 1/9/24 Transplant day today. Can’t wait to watch them grow!

🌱 Week 3 – End of Vegetative Stage 10/04 (Day 22): Watered with 500 ml at pH 5.7, EC 1300. Solution included 2.5 ml/L CalMag + 1.4 ml/L Coco A + 1.4 ml/L Coco B — Deeper Underground removed from the mix starting today. Runoff measured EC 700, pH 7.0. Considering removing a few fan leaves to allow more light penetration to the lower branches. 10/05 (Day 23): No watering today — pots still heavy and moist. The tips of new leaves are showing a very light green to yellowish color. Planning to start micronutrient supplementation directly in the nutrient solution in two days. Plants continue stretching rapidly; one grew 4 cm in the last 24 hours. Roots are now protruding through the fabric pots, indicating full root colonization. 10/06 (Day 24): Pistils visible on all plants — flowering will begin next week 🌸. Tried increasing light intensity to 20k lux, but plants showed stress, so it was reduced again. Still not obtaining reliable results with the lux meter, so I’ve ordered a PAR meter to better control light levels. Watered with 1 L of the same solution as Day 22. Runoff EC rising slightly to 750, pH stable at 7.0. Week 3 Summary — End of Vegetative Stage Strong vegetative finish: vertical growth continued steadily, some plants growing 4 cm in 24 h. Root zone fully colonized — roots visible through the fabric pots. All plants showing pistils → clear sign of transition to flowering. Light management tricky this week; stress appeared above 20k lux. PAR meter ordered for better control. Nutrient mix stable at EC 1300 (2.5 CalMag + 1.4 A/B). Deeper Underground discontinued. Runoff EC ~ 700–750, pH ~ 7.0 → substrate still buffered high, but plants adapting well. 🌼 ➡️ Plan for Week 4 – Flowering Week 1 Nutrients: Transition feed: keep CalMag at 2.0–2.5 ml/L, A/B around 1.4–1.6 ml/L. Introduce bloom additives gradually (PK boosters or bloom A/B if applicable). pH: Keep irrigation at 5.6–5.7 to slowly bring substrate down from 7.0. EC: Increase gradually toward 1400–1500 µS/cm as flowers initiate. Lighting: Use PAR meter to maintain 300–400 µmol/m²/s (~15–18k lux) during transition. VPD: Raise to 1.0–1.2 kPa for better transpiration and nutrient flow. Defoliation: Light removal of large fan leaves if necessary to expose lower sites. Observation: Watch for stabilization of new growth color and confirm consistent pre-flowering on all plants.

Transplanted into bigger pots and moved 2 of the Cream Cookies outdoors. Outdoors I'm growing in 5 gallon buckets filled with ProMix. There are holes drilled at the bottom of the buckets for drainage and the buckets are wrapped with copper tape to help prevent slugs and snails (it works). In the outdoor pics the Cream Cookies are on the right and left (in the middle is Dinafem Quick Critical+). The transplanting didn't stunt anything, seeing significant growth the next day both outdoors and indoors. Still feeding on the Fox Farm schedule at 1/2 strength. This week adds Grow Big to the mix, still feeding Big Bloom, Recharge and CALiMAGic. Totally psyched to see how things develop and compare the outdoor with the indoor. Let the fun begin!!! 😃

Day 15 Mon I'm concerned that I may be providing her with an excessive amount of nuts, leading to a high (EC). However, we'll need to wait and see how it turns out. PH 5.8 EC 1.4 DLI /19h// PPFD// Water 23c Day 16 Tue Yeah way too much EC, btw I lowered it PH 5.7 EC 0.7 DLI /19h// PPFD// Water 23c Day 17 Weed Started to look better getting healed PH 5.7 EC 0.8 DLI /19h// PPFD// Water 23c Day 18 Thu I've just cut the bottom leaves, and I'm excited to try the one-bud technique, despite my lack of experience. This is my first attempt, and I'm hopeful that am not too late. A successful outcome would be wonderful 😊 PH 5.7 EC 0.8 DLI /19h// PPFD// Water 21c Day 19 Fri PH 5.8 EC 0.8 DLI /19h// PPFD// Water 25c Day 20 Sat PH 5.4/ EC 0.8 DLI /19h// PPFD// Water 25c Day 21 Sun PH 5.6/5.8 EC 0.8 DLI /19h// PPFD// Water 25c

Organic living soil mixed by myself while mixing the local organic matter : ) For example: Earthworm casting / Bat guano / Seaweed power extract / perlite / peat / coco / soil / fungi needed And water when dry.

Another week has gone by. Still not seeing any amber trichomes but a lot seem to be going cloudy so hopefully another 2 weeks MAX for this one. Both plants are looking kinda deficient but only a week or two left so not too fussed about that. Both plants smell very sweet and are both the same smell too which suggests a nice strain stability. Still unsure which one will yield more, one being topped and one left to its own life. Hopefully next week we will see some amber!

End of week 3 of flower for some reason my phone wont take clear shots, so decided to provide a video for this week Everything seems fine, starting to smell them now All plants looking healthy

Einfach eine super Woche Ich bin einfach wieder komplett überzeugt davon autoflower indoor anzubauen, dank fastbuds gibt's so geile Sorten. Ich will am ende alle mal gegrowed haben

Saturday, 19/02/2022 All plants looking OK. I realised I had no clear plan as to what I would do with the plants I LST'd so I removed the ties today. I really prefer the symmetry of mainlining so that is what I will be going for, specifically, quadlining. Plants showed no ill effects to Cytokin treatment (drench and foliar at same rate) and seemed to like it. Fed on 15/02/2022 with 10ml/gallon CAB and 5 ml/gallon Real Growers Recharge (RGR) on 17/02/2022. No ill effects to RGR and plants seemed to like it. Ph'd with 1.5 ml/gallon Evergrow Ph Down Sulphur on the 17th, not sure about the 15th, I may have used rainwater. Top of soil and actual soil at depth was moist today so I did not feed but at this moment, 2:34 PM, there has been significant rainfall for the past hour. Really need to get a rain gauge. Apart from the pots being on bare soil (need to get them off bare ground with large saucers, blocks, stepstones or something similar). I really don't mind the rain because I think the "natural" water will be good for the beneficials introduced by the Recarge and subsequently the plants. As I move the plants what seem to be whiteflies immediately flit about. Really, really need to get going on IPM!😣 5:13 PM, Saturday, 19/02/2022 Raised pots off ground with plant saucers. Treated pots, soil cover and plants with dusting of Insect Powder.

D29 Did top dressing with bone and kelp meal as well as worm castings. D31 Performed a little more LST, a few more days and I will let her do her thing. D32 More LST exposed lower nodes and evened out the canopy. D33 Removed all bonsai wire and rolled down the rim of the pot to even it out with to soil, more airflow. D35 Not much growth but overall looking pretty good. Heatwave last couple days keep temperatures higher than desired.

Hi all! 🤗👊 Start week 4 flower

the plant is doing well. I think it will be ready next week. Unfortunately, the website slightly spoils the quality of the videos.

01.07. White Runtz Day 63# Condition much better. On the plant, after the last update, the crap started to spread, 2 or 3 days after the last update I removed a lot of destroyed leaves, from then until today it is no longer spreading, this morning I noticed (probably not earlier) on 2 leaves it is barely visible and a little while ago when I went around the plants I noticed that it had not spread at all, so I can freely say that the plant has recovered, and it was the second in the row in the most critical condition. I removed those two leaves and I'm still monitoring the situation, but the plant is already growing nicely and has put on a lot of leaf mass, so almost as much as it lost, it's healthy, don't complain, I think it's recovered. The last two waterings she received only clean water, the next watering is food, stimulators, vitamins, amino acids… Today is the end of the ninth week for the plant. Stay High and Keep Growing!!!
