Day 22- She stopped putting on height due to one night of a dramatic temperature drop. It's a cooler fall this year plus a freeze came through the night before. That night, I was up doing some studying when I noticed the reading on the remote display. N o telling how long it had been in the very low 60's. The problem was fixed simply by adding a heater to the room. Now, the temp is only in the 68 degree range for the final 2 1/2 hrs. before the lights are cut back on. Day 26- Her bud branches hav grown at least 2 -5 innches in length and have at least 2-4 bud sites already. Instead of Defoliation, I decided to actual two different types of LST. The first is simply bending to fan leaf branches under to expose the bud branches to more light. The main benefit is that you still keep the ability to absorb more of the light energy with them. I look at the fan leaves as your plant's " Personal Sun Panels". Since they store energy in the day and use that reserve to grow at night, why would you take something away for her that is meant to help her? Also, the second method I used is something I like to call" wind thickening". The technique is using wind resistance to train your plant's stem and branches to become more rigid by growing thicker to stablize itself. So, instead of a gentle breeze, I use a three speed box fan at varies distance. I started doing this on Day 22 and the results are definitely showing. The main stem went from 1/16 in. to a nice 3/8 in.

11/06 Day 45 Temp 25c Humidity 57% Not a lot to report, I'm going to leave them be until their next feeding on Sunday 12/06 Day 46 Temp 27c Humidity 60% 13/06 Day 47 🌞 Temp 28c Humidity 67% Ordered another Spider Farmer light. This time the SF4000. Combined with the Sf2000 I'm currently growing under it'll be 600W or as near to as possible. It should arrive in time for flowering at the end of next week. 14/06 Day 48 🍼 Temp 27c Humidity 65% Fed the monsters 1.5L of solution each. Retrained and defoliated the lower fan leaves and removed some new tops that are appearing in order to create more space between branches Another two weeks like this and I'll switch them into flower 15/06 Day 49 Temp 28c Humidity 59% Slight tweaking of the training I did yesterday. Everyone looks happy and growing in the right direction. 16/06 Day 50 Temp 28c Humidity 59% Left the ladies to recover and compose themselves today. 17/06 Day 51 Temp 28c Humidity 59% trimmed a few nodes of one that was injured so I let it to grow out a bit more and recover

Sour Jealousy Auto FastBuds 2025 Outside Grow Week 10 June 1-7 FLOWER 4 This week had a couple rainy days but mostly sunny. Temperatures were normal for this time of year – mid 80s in the day and 50s at night. This next week is calling for rain every day. I may have to move her inside as a cautionary measure to avoid too much moisture in the plant. Our coastal area stays very humid and last year I lost 2 huge plants to bud rot. Have a great weekend staying high. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Everything has gone extremely well. Couldn't ask for q better first grow. Have been flushing with just pH'd water for about a week. Starting the ladies dark period today. The smell is super gassy and pungent. I can't wait to taste these buds 🤤 Six Shooter #2 definitely could have gone another 2-3 weeks. I decided to flush it anyway and maybe use it to make edibles. Next grow I will have a separate drying area and not have to worry about synching the harvest dates. Big shout out to Fast Buds for these Awesome Genetics 💪🌱💪 Thank you so much to the Grow Diaries Community and all those that helped and like my grow along the way 🙏

Week 13 - Flowering Week 4 The cycle look well advanced. All plants are producing quantities of pistils like the Royal Gorilla or Bubble Gum. Some aphids are still around but infestation seems under control. I sprayed Neem oil to repulse insects and defoliated. I added more nutrients in the soil (Palm Tree Ashes) and in Water: pk 13/14, flowering stimulator. Watering each 2 or 3 days 80cl/plant -Cal/Mag + Pk 13/14 + flowering nutrients -Cal/Mag + Bud XL + flowering nutrients -Cal/Mag + Over Drive + flowering nutrients Plants report: -CaliFunk the most advanced: flowers are frosty, resinous and getting thicker. But this plant is very short and only the 4 main buds are correct. -Royal Gorilla stopped to produce long pistil and started the final stage. -Ak 47 is flowering slowly, buds are long but not thick for the moment: elegant Sativa -Bubble Gum look great, dynamic and homogeneous flowering: well engaged -Green Punch after damaged is producing some flower + one bud…. -Sour Diesel is a pretty good surprise: interesting flowering: slow but progressive (Sativa dominant). The smell in the grow-tent is a strange and strong Mix between this 6 different strains.

Shitty week. Fan fell down and broke a few branches on 2 plants. Overall they have recovered well and I hope the yield is not affected. Humidity has gone down. I bought a small dehumidifier - but somehow it's not doing what I'd hoped. I've defoliated a bit as the leaves are overlapping and moisture is accumulating there. NYC Sour D #1: Lost 2 lower branches. No drama, but I felt bad. #2: Still slow growth and very compact. Royal Cookies Auto #1: Still the best strain. The first pistins can be seen. #2: Also good plant. As well first pistins Royal Haze Auto #1: So far ok. No pistins to be seen yet. #2: Has lost a side branch. But it was a somewhat smaller plant anyway. Let's see how it continues. Light settings 50% dimmer at 50 cm distance Between 650and 970 ppfd. Small yellow leaf tips. I think this has more to do with the nutrients than with light stress. I don't add any fertilizer, but I don't have to water much either. I'll be on vacation for 11 days from next Wednesday on - I'll water 2 liters per plant before vacation so that the neighbor doesn't have too much to do. He'd better take care of the ventilation and humidity.

“A” phenotype has the best overall structure and calyx to leaf ratio, is also the tallest. “B” phenotype is 10” shorter than the “A”, definitely has foxtailing in the genes. “C” phenotype is the shortest of the 3, better structure than “B”, not as good as “A”.

11/30: I fed them today and supercropped the taller one a little bit. Just trying to encourage her lowers to compete for apical dominance. I raised the lights another few inches 12/1: I raised the lights about a foot because of a couple of taller plants, so these girls and most of the others are on a platform so as to be within 15 inches of the lights. Their platforms are some of the shortest, and I think they're about to catch up with the others.👍 12/2: Busy with life...didn't do much. Very cold days, so the high temp in the closet was 72f today👈 12/4: Switched to 13/11....afraid of it taking too long to flower and ending up with a bunch of pain in the ass 5-footers..

Even though it says 80 Gallon pot, it’s really 400, it just glitches out when I enter 400 and converts to say only 80. I know she looks bad! I know. She has only been managing a nutrient lockout with horribly low pH for far too long! The Hydrated Lime has indeed fixed the pH! Resulting in my next inbound set of problems. The original soil from the second 2.3L pot she was in was too strong! She needs to get her roots out into the larger pot, but that only gives her so much more space. Plus in that larger black plastic pot, the hot dry sun at 7,000 ft in elevation, really heats up those pots! When it’s 98F later, that sounds like torture! Maybe it was enough to balance out the more concentrated stuff towards the inside of the root mass. But I don’t want her roots to stop there! The time is now for her to go into the 400!!! The soil is 6.5 pH through and through. The peas are about to bloom! She has just avoided lockout and is picking up momentum! The 400 gives her a huge diameter for her roots! Something I sincerely hope her genetics will take advantage of. The soil is rich and alive! The temps in 400 will be so much better! Now I must prepare for my Arch Nemesis! The Butterfly!!!!!! Lol But seriously. They find my plants attractive, and decide to serve my plants as food for their offspring!!!! Not okay! Last year their success rate on my plants was a fat 0!! But they did some serious damage! I am prepared this year!! I will watch with vigilance for any butterflies around my plants specifically. I will spray my plants down regularly with diatomaceous earth! Not too much obviously! I know less is more when spraying that stuff! No mother wants to give her children food with razor blades in it! And as always there is always next year! I can’t let a phase of mice and men get the better of me. However!!… that’s what I said LAST YEAR!!!! Lol. This year IS next year! Anyways she looks rough right now on Day 58 but I tell yah what, she has very recently made a dramatic turnaround for the better!! …I hope! Happy Growing! StrongTrees💪🌳

Been doing a lots of defoliation in this week(Especially on ETHOS-Lilac Diesel) and all the plant are looking great. Still waiting for the bloom fertilizer and then we will start flowering stage as soon as we received the fertilizers.

Dec 9: They are looking pretty good as far as I can tell, having trouble debating to cut off some fan leaves or not, this is my first ever grow and I don’t want to stress it out any more than it has. The way I trained the plant is definitely suboptimal, next time I will plant the seed off to the side a bit to have room to bend. Also should I just continue with tucking almost everyday or cut the troublesome leaves covering bud sites? And the bottom node, should I skip the chutes? Is it okay to cut things off at this stage of its life? They are definitely still in preflower as there are only presence of the “V” hairs at each budsite, and smell is very weak.

February 20, 2019 update: Pretty much just waiting to be ready for harvest. Everything is moving along nicely at this point. Planning on feeding until the end of February, then starting a 2 week flush with most of the plants going in the flower room now, but I may let the Cookies & Cream go a little longer. Fed MegaCrop, Cal+Mag Pro and Mammoth P this week. I've used up the last of my Mammoth P at this point. It will be MegaCrop & Cal+Mag Pro only until flush. All pics were taken with the lights on. I tried color correcting the best I could, but the pics really don't represent the actual colors very well. Usually I try to get some pics with the lights off also, but I was not able to do that last week. I'll make sure to get some better pics next time. 👍

Growth Overview: Vegetative Stage: Auto Critical Orange Punch developed into a thick and bushy plant with vigorous growth. It filled out its space well, creating a dense canopy of healthy, deep green leaves. Flowering Stage: The plant maintained its bushy structure, with buds developing steadily and gaining significant mass. By the time of harvest, the buds were thick and plentiful, displaying a beautiful orange hue typical of this strain. Harvest Details: Timing: Harvested at the peak of maturity, with the trichomes reaching the desired level of cloudiness and amber. Yield: The plant produced a substantial amount of dense, resinous buds, thanks to its bushy nature and strong branching.
