4/5: Took 4 cuttings from the shortie 4/12: All 4 are rooted and growing! 5/1: Transplanted from 1gallon pots to 5 gallon pots. 5/3: Decided to grow one of them in my tiny tent and the other 3 will go outdoors. 5/4: Took 2 of them outdoors under the 270w and sunshine. 5/6: Trained all of them today and fed some boomerang along with the kelp, molasses, big bloom, and silica. Foliar fed and took the last one outdoors. The one in the tent is really flourishing! 5/7 - 5/17: Excellent growth! The supplemental lights are making all the difference.👍 Did some more training on all of them early in the week. The one in the closet is spreading out nicely and budding up pretty quickly...but what's very cool is that all 4 clones outdoors are flowering?!?!? I sure hope they go ahead and finish rather than starting to revegetate as the days continue to get longer. Much rain for the past few days, but it let up long enough for me to install another 200w of waterproof 3000k LED lights a couple of feet above them. Very intense lighting, great bang for the buck. So now, I've got 350w of 3000k and 120w of 6500k in the outdoor garden. That's gonna have to do it, as I also am using 1400w in my indoor gardens, plus a/c..bills are getting ridiculous. 5/18 - 5/28: The clone in the tent is still stacking up really well. I guess the ones outdoors are too, but next to the seedling plants, they seem puny. Many buds though... Since they decided to flower early, I sprayed them all down with a product that is loaded with hormones and auxins and stuff that's supposed to retard vertical growth and promote branching. It's also supposed to speed arvest time by as much as a week. I hope they can finish before the summer solstice (June 21), otherwise they might try to reveg instead of finishing.. Hopefully it helps keep them from stretching so much that I'll have to supercrop them. Their mamma was a shortie, so they really shouldn't get too tall anyway. I also foliar fed them several times this week with something called MicroLife Maximum Blooms, Pow! They love the stuff! 5/28 - 5/31: I did some training on a two of the outdoor clones early in the week between rain showers, and foliar fed with Microlife maximum bloom formula. She was looking a little N deficient, so I assume the dry amendments have petered out. They were dry enough, so I top-fed her with another couple tablespoons of cavern culture and on the 31st. I gave them big bloom, tiger bloom, grow big, beastie bloomz, silica, endoboost, signal, humic acid, liquid kelp/fish emulsion, and liquid molasses. The indoor clone is looking awesome. I fed her heavily on the 30th. It just feels so strange that I'll be harvesting outdoor photos in June!?! That's it for week 8- 6/1 - 6/8: Early in the week I gave them about a half gallon of water with liquid molasses, cal-mag, silica, and beastie bloomz only. I foliar fed them a couple of times during the week, right at daybreak. I fed them on Saturday, the 6th..about a gallon each..beastie bloomz, microlife maximum blooms, cal-mag, humic acid, grow big, big bloom, sweet & sticky, and signal. They are looking very good..buds galore. The indoor clone got the same nutes, but on different days. She's also covered in buds, and they are beginning to fatten up.👍 6/9-7/4: Busy with other gardens, so not many updates... Indoor clone got to spend the last 2 weeks of her life in my closet under the quantum boards and UVB. I harvested and washed her buds on 6/28, let her hang dry and weighed and jarred her up on the 4th of July. She came in a 111g of cola and 45g of lower bud with only about 5g of larf. Nice!👍 She smells just like her mommy and has the same uber-dense buds. She was topped, so the buds aren't as mighty as the mamma's, but much more plentiful.👌 Outdoor clones: I had a massive spider mite attack, and during the same week, I had a grasshopper invasion...I lost a few plants, one of which as a FFT1 clone. I had just harvested my autos and my indoor clones from the closet, so I moved the remaining two clones in under the quantum boards. I treated them for spider mites several ways for several days and have given them much TLC. Hopefully their buds fatten up some more. They stanky, but they kinda slim... 7/11: I harvested the last two clones tonight. So sticky!!! I washed them and hung them to dry.

Day 10 from planting the seeds directly in the soil. Wedding Cheesecake is going pretty fast! Only PH water for now, temperature around 22°. Started plagron power roots at day 10, with 1ml/L of water.

I hung dried for three days and then bagged them up in brown paper bags for two days due to the low temps and humidity before jaring them.

After germinating the seeds are transplanted into small pots with soil (see tutorial in VIDEO above). The soil is prepared with water mixed with a little bit of BIO NOVA Roots (0,5 ml/l), which aids the development of the seedling. Transplanting is very easy now, because they have grown a STRAIGHT tap-root while hanging during the SERIOUS' WAY of germination. This straight root allows for easy potting of the seeds. Simply make a little hole in the center of the soil with your pinky finger and carefully place the germinated seed with the white root pointing DOWNWARDS into the hole. Best is to lay it onto one side-wall of the hole with the seed shell right at the surface. Then I push the other side inwards and enclose the whole root with soil. At the end only the top of the seed-shell peeks out of the soil. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT to plant the seeds NOT TO DEEP into the soil. The seedling only needs extra strength to work itself upwards thru the soil and you run the risk of the soil drying out and the seed dying off. When you PLANT THE SEED VERY SHALLOW into the soil (=with the top of the seed-shell still peeking out) your seedling can grow out right away and you have a small plant already 24 hours after putting the seed into the soil. The small seedling sometimes still has the seed-shell on its 'head', it normally falls off by itself, but sometimes you have to carefully help and take it off with your finger nails. Be careful to NOT clip of the seedling accidentally when you do this! The seed-shall has an inner lining, which feeds the small seedling when it germinates. This inner lining sometimes gets tangled around the stem of the small seedling after the shell has fallen off. This little skin MUST be taken off the stem right away! Once it dries up, it gets hard and can strangulate the seedling around the stem. In order to avoid this, the skin must be taken off as soon as possible! I show it in the pics above and also made a video about taking off the inner lining of the seed.

This quite possibly may be the best diary I have ever ran. It's most likely my personal best autoflower. It's not big from a yield perspective but I think I reached max potency. Sometimes when you really hit what a strain wants the results can be amazing. The colors on this lady are absolutely beautiful. Like fall colors in the Adirondacks!!!!! This time of year our leaves outside are loaded with anthocyanins & carotene & xanthophyll the same chemicals that cause our wonderful buds to get thier colors & hues. I know these 3 chemicals very well because I am an arborist & care for trees as a career. I hope you enjoy this very special diary & check back next week to see just how fast she finishes up! In the meantime remember its 4:20 somewhere!!!!

🌱 Las semillas han pasado unos 2-3 días en tupper con servilleta, manteniéndolas húmedas con pulverizaciones. Han germinado todas, aunque las Strawberry Banana están siendo un poquito más lentas que las demás. Esta semana partimos con: - ? 4 × Blueberry Cupcake — Humboldt Seed Organization - 🍓 2 × Strawberry Banana — DNA Genetics De momento, todo va bien y las pequeñas ya están empezando su aventura. 🌱💚 🐗🌰

This girl is cruising along no issues. She smells really strong and is already frosty!

Hello, fellow growers I thank you for having dedicated your attention to my garden and I hope that the contents are to your liking and help for your growth. My central zkitt is about to explode

Had to pull some of the bottom leaves 🍃 to improve the airflow and be easier to water ,very good looking so far ,starting to give her some nutes for flowering every other water

This girl is a late bloomer, but now she is starting to reach my other girls. The plant stopped to grow and now she is pointing all her energies to to flowers. The smell it's very strange ( in a positive way). I have done some lollipopping because the plant is very bushy with 12-13 main colas, and a lot of side branches diddn't see the sunlight so i chopped them. Also I've found some unwanted guests, but outdoor it's a common thing. The first 5 weeks, I sprayed a mix of water and neem oil and it all went very good without any parasite, but when the plants started flowering I obviously stopped giving them neem oil, and now I founs sometimes insects, but nothing to bad, I nedd to wait another 3-4 weeks and then I'll harvest it :)

Harvested.

Die Kush Mint hat sich in den letzten zwei Wochen sehr gut entwickelt und deshalb haben wir sie am 13ten Tag getoppt. Düngetechnisch halten wir uns an den Düngeplan von Hy-Pro mit einem EC Wert von 1,2. Sie zeigt keine Anzeichen von Überdüngung sondern wächst und streckt sich dem Licht schön entgegen. Die Genetik von Super Strain hat das Topping sehr gut vertragen und die Kush Mint wächst bereits am nächsten Tag weiter, als wäre nichts gewesen. Das stimmt uns sehr positiv und freuen uns auf die nächste Grow-Woche mit ihr. Wie findet ihr sie? 😎

We have gone a little lighter in coloring again but I am adjusting lighting a little more on her and defoliating a little but so she can use her energy in places she needs too.

Well I got my Scrog screen installed on Saturday and I remembered to Ph my Mix this week. The girls look healthy, and from Monday to Today they have shown Growth!! YAY I'm so excited. I know Im so far away.

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2206 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... 🤪 But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Vivosun Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 1/19- Here we go into Week Four of flower and these testers are ON FIRE!🔥🔥🔥 Both testers are in a flower frenzy and are ready to eat! Today I gave both girls their last top dressing with Down To Earth 4-8-4 Flower Mix at a ratio of 2tbsp/g and Coast of Maine's Stonington Blend 5-2-4 Organic Plant Food at a ratio of 1tbsp/g which I simplified by using 1/3 cup of the 4-8-4 and 1/4 cup of the 5-2-4 in the 4g pot and 3/8 cup of 4-8-4 and 1/8 cup of the 5-2-4 in the 3g pot. After working the amendments into the medium, I watered it in with 1g of straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.6 @ 74℉. It will take a week for the microbes to begin breaking it down and will last for 3-4 weeks after that which should coincide with them finishing up, or close to it, enabling them to naturally 'flush' themselves out. I've also increased the power to the HLG 650R's the the Trolmaster Hydro X Controller to 75% which has them pulling 990w at the wall and have them hung 32" above canopy. I also starting adding in 4 hours of UVA during the middle of the light cycle for the remainder of flower. I've been monitoring their leaf temperatures and they're running 71-73℉ which is perfect! I have the AutoPilot APC8200 co2 Controller set to 1100ppm with a 100ppm window and the AC Infinity Cloudline T6 controller set to maintain a 74℉ temperature in the tent while the lights are on. 1/21- I'm watering these thirsty girls daily with straight de-chlorinated water ph'd it to 6.6 @ 74℉ and they're both thriving! The #1 pheno stays in a perpetual state of 'praying'.... a VERY happy girl she is and the #2 is just an enormous plant with tons of bud sites and flowers that are starting to get a coating of white trichomes giving them that frosty appearance! 1/23- I watered/fed both testers today with 0.75g of de-chlorinated water each with GreenGro's Natures Brix, Granular Myco and Flower Finisher mixed in, after which I added 1 tsp/g of unsulfured molasses and then ph'd it to 6.6 @ 74℉. They'll be getting straight water from here moving forward as the medium has enough food in it to support them until they finish. 1/25- Daily watering continued today with both girls receiving 0.75g of straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.6 @ 74℉. OMG they're both looking fantastic, both are amazing cultivars with a generous coating of trichomes beginning to cover their flowers. I'm really looking forward to Week Five of flower where these ladies should really start to turn it up a notch!! 😍💚 😎💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! 💪😎🤙

Strain: Auto Fractal by Divine Seeds Week 4 – Early Flowering Stage We’ve just hit week 4, and these girls are already in flower! 🌸 The scent is getting stronger every day, and the leaves have taken on a deep, dark green tone — looking healthy and full of energy. They’re currently around 35 cm tall, with a nice, compact structure. It’s only the beginning of flowering, and things are already getting exciting. Stay tuned — the real show is just starting! 👀✨ Big thanks to Divine Seeds for the amazing genetics! 🙏🌱💚

Tag 92: Blütetag 56, man sieht bereits die ersten Bernsteinfarbenen Trichome ich bin gespannt wenn die Pflanzen erntereif sind. Lichtintensität 90%. Tag 93: Alle Pflanzen gegossen 15% Topfvolumen = 2,7L NL. Wasser PH 6.5 + 1.2ml/L CalMag + 0.25gr/L Bittersalz. Tag 94: Die letzten Tage waren die Temperaturen leider sehr hoch aber ab morgen soll es zum Glück ein bisschen kühler werden. Heute habe ich alle Pflanzen kurz kontrolliert und sonst nur in ruhe gelassen. Lichtintensität 80%. Tag 95: Alle Pflanzen in ruhe gelassen. Tag 96: Ich lasse die Töpfe austrocknen und gieße nicht mehr bis ich Ernte, Lichtintensität 70%. Tag 97: Die Pflanzen sehen gut aus und es werden immer mehr Trichome Bernsteinfarben, die nächsten Tage werde ich intensiver beobachten wie weit die Pflanzen gereift sind. Tag 98: Heute habe ich meine beiden Cannatrol, TrimBins, Arbeitsfläche und Scheren für die Ernte vorbereitet.

Day 71 from seed the plant seems to be growing beautifully and now they are starting to develop beautiful flowers and they are entirely covered with white snow trichomes it is a very strong and powerful plant to grow what a beauty . I also I defoliate some of the lower branches that will not going to develop well enough because lack of light so they can use that energy on the upper buds instead of the lower ones. thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow.

This lady is chugging along chasing the strain next to her and has been having a bit of a hard time against this slowed growth.. I've tried less water but still it hasn't really helped yet will watch and wait for that explosion.. cheers
