Week just starting off and the one baby has still not broken thru so I take matters into my own hands and attempt emergency surgery!!!
I sanitized a Raw loader stick and gently pulled the sprout up. It laid over after and I'm going to give it a few hours before I try to put something to hold it up if it doesn't manage to orient properly. Any advice would be appreciated, This week just started so will edit it throughout the week..
11/18 Transplanted into 1ga pots and gave first n00tz FF 3tsp/GA Big Bloom.
11/19 Ok so my humidy has been plumiting to 33-36% so I tried putting a rag over a fan, putting a rag in a bowl over the inlet and nothing helped so I went to amazon and bought this! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08GQZDS9J It has a gallon or so tank and a humidity sensor so it cycles to maintain humidity.
11/20 Anyways humidifier shows up today and I kicked it up to 80% and its about 70% after 4 hours.. I'll drop it down once the babies get to growing a bit more. I'm actually worried I transplanted too soon. Shout out to my boy Jeff! And a smaller shout out to James!
11/22 So no real changes the last few days, the plants still aren't thirsty so holding off on that. I did rearrange grow tent to allow me to set up a camera to capture time lapse of the process and I had to get some power to it so it doesn't cut off when the lights go out hehe. I mean all is well I guess, I'm still concerned bout my little plants and the one with the crooked stem. Although I'm thinking the more I keep hands off right now the better chance they'll have! Wish me (and my babies) luck!
11/24 So everything looks smooth, today I uploaded a time lapse of the last couple days which if you speed thru it can see movement of the plants which is cool, but I'm stressing that my 3 way meter isn't correct. Its reading like 6-7 on moisture scale after about 7 days of being on the same water/feeding. I am anxious to water again but don't want to overwater...I mean I do feel some moistness if I press down on the soil. I'm quickly learning this is a great means to work on your patience!!! Oh and I'm rapidly losing hope for the bent girl, so sad.

She is really close.
Weather forecast is pretty good the last part of this week. She has 3 or 4 more sunny days to go.
After that she will be harvested in steps. Big first, bottom second. Probably couple of days in between. Same process for all my plants. MAROC was also harvested like this during the past week.
It was a tense few weeks with all the rain we had. I had to cut out some buds to keep mould from taking over but i managed to keep the damage under control.
Biggest surprise was that fungi now grow underneath the plant as well, not just in the buds😅
Lovely sight to see!!

This was an easy cycle with some average problems, dealt with the gnats by topping the soil.
anyway it was a plant that was easy to grow, a very pleasant non weedy smell around.
and was ready within 70 days, i left it a couple of days more till first amber trichomes
The most strains taste far better after curing, with this one i don't agree with that rule.
This strain actually tastes better when it's fresh. The curing brings back more of the kush, and makes the smoke stronger, but the taste of fresh dried sugar kush is close to undescribeable.

A little late for the weekly update as life got in the way but my girl purple Alaskan is doing awesome! Great root formation down into the reservoir now, I upped the EC to 1.4 and changed the reservoir water completely this week. I have been getting some pH drift but I think it's from the bucket I'm using so I have been adjusting to 5.8 as needed. I added the scrog net today as I know she's gonna be growing like crazy now!

I've been defoliating slowly trying to keep them small due to a house inspection coming up. Once that's out the way I'll put them in bigger pots then switch to flower.
They all outgrew the mutated start and are looking good.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Gorilla Melon de FastBuds.
Por dónde empezar, las flores son bien compactas y van repletas de resina son muy pegajosas, tienen tonos verdes bonitos, y tiene unos aromas dulces y exóticos bastante marcados con toques terrosos.
Es muy sencilla de cultivar, es de ciclo de 2 meses y medio, pero bien agradecida, tiene buenos satélites, de las que plante de fastbuds, podría decir que mi favorita hasta el momento.
Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Another week, new Problems.
On Wednesday i noticed that on the Special Queen one spot looked very weird. Instead of forming one bud on a spot, there were coming two buds out of one spot.
After asking in questions section and google the problem, i found out that this is most likely "Fasciation", a mutation most likely caused by stress or bad genetics.
Some people said it's fine and that it will get even higher THC levels, but most said it will have less THC, taste weird and that there will be most likely a high mold chance.
So after some consideration i took the scissors and just did cut it off. Im really not in the mood to experiment with some mutant stuff right now and i just hope the energy will now go into the other branches instead.
Also i did my last defoliation on Thursday. Maybe i have done too much of it, but that is how it is now. I have a good feeling that i will get good results and right now that is all which matters for me.
You can ask 10 people and all have different opinions about it, so i just do it now as i think it's right. At least now i can see everything all right, so if i get hermies, i can remove the pollen sacs right away. Before that i couldn't see anything because of all the leaves.
It was such a pain in the ass and took over 5 hours to remove everything. I can't open my tent on the left side and can't remove the plants because of the scrog, so i really struggled especially to do it on RG #1, my back is killing me now.
Decided to do super cropping on two Branches of RG #1, so i can lower the lamp a little bit. Im out of stuff which i could put under the Plants to increase height, so the canopy won't get better / more even then this now sadly. I hope i did it kinda right.
Im still kinda sad that they didn't stretch more, but it is what it is. As you can see on my picture there is a lot of wasted space on top of my tent, like 30cm. Next Veg will be longer for sure.
After last week they now got BioTabs Bio PK 5-8 again for the second time.
I think the plants look alright and as long as nothing will herm now, i think im fine for the upcoming last 5-6-7 weeks.
See you next week :) Wish me luck

A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth.
It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did.
The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow.
I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet.
On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing
and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

10 weeks total for the first phenos and a bit more than 11 for the last one! I could have easily gotten double the projected yield on these had I not neglected them but whatever I pulled is rock hard, dusted in sugar and smells absolutely stupendous! You did it again FastBuds!

Hello Diary,
Cherry Pie has completed the second week of flowering.
The flowers are forming nicely, the areas around the flowers are a lighter green color, so it looks like it has Christmas lights on it.
Cherry Pie has started to stagnate in growth, this week only 9 cm, now the plant will direct most of its energy into the flowers.
The leaves are a healthy green color and so far they do not show me any signs that the plant is missing anything.
Watering was every three days, I continued to add CalMg and Bio-Bloom Fertilizer.
The conditions in the grow box are now much better.
The temperature is around 28 degrees and the humidity is below 50%.
Overall I am very happy with the growth and progress so far.
Here is a quick overview of the week.
24/08/2024 - Day 31.
Watering.
I prepared 9 liters of water. I added CalMg 1 ml/lit, Bio-Bloom Fertiliser 1.5 ml/lit and then lowered the p.H. to 6.0.
With this amount I watered all three plants evenly.
27/08/2024 - Day 34.
Watering.
I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier.
28/08/2024 - Day 35.
End of the second week of flowering, or the fifth week from the beginning of vegetation.
Photographing and measuring the height of the plants.
Cherry Pie - Day 35. - 69 cm
That's all from me for this week, see you soon.
