On my next round I am going to make sure that I make additional soil when I start a grow so I can keep topping the soil off to take advantage of all the root barbs popi g out

Growing for FastBuds420 has truly been an honor their genetics are truly Best in the world in my book strange our name beautifully mimicking the smells and appearances of their names. Pineapple express is one . They nailed the name right on the head. This plant truly smells just like a pineapple and almost looks like a pineapple once the fade starts one of the biggest autos I’ve ever grown truly thankful for the opportunity to grow this plant FastBuds420. 4 Life πŸŒΏπŸ’¨πŸ’―

Start of week 3, the three survivors are doing great! I did happen to find some algae growing on top of one of the rockwool cubes. (This was my fault for not fully covering the tops of them with hydroton to block out light.) As an attempted fix, I cut some square pieces of black cloth that I laid of the top of the cubes to block out the light completely. Hoping removing their light source, the algae will die off and discourage any further growth. If it gets any worse I’ll try using a hydrogen peroxide solution. Day 17, the three ladies are looking nice. Starting to see some nice healthy roots populate inside the buckets. I went ahead and upped their nutrients today. We will see how they are doing in the morning. -FloraFlex - 1.5g/gal of each V1 and V2. -Advanced Nutrients - 1/2 strength MGB and hobbyist additives. **Algae update: seems like using the black cloth to block out all the light has killed off that algae growth and I don’t see anymore so it’s working!** Day 18, I thought one of my plants had root rot. Which was weird for it to happen that fast in less than 24 hours since changing the res. Come to find out it’s just nutrient stain from the Advanced Nutrients, so thank god. #1 and #2 which are growing with FloraFlex got FIMmed today. I’ve topped plants before but never FIM. Not sure if I did it right, but that’s the fun in all this, is experimenting to see what works. Day 20, #1 and #2 are responding well after being FIMmed couple days ago. I decided to FIM #3 as well. I also decided to leave the 4th one out of this diary from here on out since she’s behind. We will stick with the original three that survived from the start. So far I’m really loving their bushy appearance and thick leaves. Their roots are coming out super nice as well! Pretty soon these babies are going to just take off!

Well looked at the trics and I seen about 40% ambers so I put her in dark for 2 days before I harvested her pulled her out or the dark checked the trics. again and seen zero ambers while I was confused I knew she was not ready so I had a space in my veg. Tent so I threw her in there for her last week or 2. She looks so bad as I let her dry out big time and with the ph issues I had earlier in the grow there's not a leaf on her that's not got part of it dying off. Hopefully this is last week of flower as it's week start of week 10 and I really wanna try her out although most will go to concentrates as this grow was not ideal and the frost is minimal compared to other gg4 I got flowering right now.

Ladies still drink a lot of water, 3,4 L every 48 hours. Main cola flowers are getting big, side colas less but still 2 weeks to go so hopefully they will continue. The lady in the front, plant and buds have another aspect then the other 2. All of them are cherry cola. Also had some issues with her during veg phase and she began flowering earlier.

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way β€” first week running without them) πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ πŸ’§ 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 Β°C) β†’ added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel β†’ added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring β€” no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) β‰ˆ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone β€” looks alive and active. πŸ‹ Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. πŸ“¦ Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water β†’ pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green β€” roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. πŸ’§ Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water β‰ˆ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g β†’ N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml β†’ P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp β†’ Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml β†’ Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced.

Lollipopped the widow x clones since they’re monster cropped clones. Lots of defoliation. All plants are in 12/12; I no longer have a veg tent. I do not have room to allow the plants to continue to veg. After smoking some of the mother widow x plant; I firmly believe it is white widow. The seed I originally planted came from a mixture of berry white and white widow. I wasn’t sure which bud the seed had come from so we labeled it β€œwidow x”.

The crops these days never run out. And here's the Fastbuds Skunk. We have said several times that we were convinced it was growing with some handicap and then it broke through but this led us to transfer it a little too late to make it large. She then stayed small and made us a giant cocone full but full of resin and with an unmistakable smell of Skunk Wow. Everyone should bow to Fatbuds for how they make their little girls produce resin. He listened to the M83s and during the pickup took a hipster-style trip after a 60's acid microdot.

Como estΓ‘is familia? Yo flipando y es que todo lo que provenga de cheese me encanta, farm cheese del banco genofarm, repleta de polen,parece los Pirineos en pleno enero cuando nieva. Es una cepa increΓ­ble el problema que le veo es su olor penetrante, apesta enserio es muy fuerte su olor, seguimos alimentΓ‘ndola con advanced nutrients quitamos todos los adictivos menos overdrive y la base sigue dando caΓ±a y si no mirar su color. Todo este proyecto e de agradecerlo a mars hydro que sin ellos no es posible este proyecto, enserio este led es bomba. Ph controlado , humedad por debajo de 50% temperatura entorno a 27 algo alta pero no hay problema alguno. Muchas gracias a todo el equipo de mars hydro de nuevo, agrobeta que aunque no participen los productos en el diario si van hacerlo en un futuro, y gracias a vosotros que sin grow diaries y sin todos vosotros usuarios , tampoco es posible, asΓ­ que gracias, muy buenos humos πŸ’¨πŸ’¨πŸ’¨.
