Day 56 starting flush then another round. No washing machine in the next round.:( Rotten cookies 8 had 2 stamen that came out of a bract so possible hermaphrodite there. That's why we hunt, number 6 is frosty as heck and 1 and 4 have the craziest bud structure I've seen so far

Week 5 already, thats why they call it fastbuds... In no time its harvest time! We had some bugs (trips) running around, i think i took them from outside as i was working on my garden, my outdoor plant is also affected, that happens for being a dirty old man 🤦🤷 but not much we can do now, i tried to clean the leaves a bit and remove some, but i think its better to harvest and clean the room as i dont eant any pesticides on the buds, but for the rest quite ok, we gave aome extra pk and bloom this week so lets see how the plants do next weeks 😁

Here's some video of day 11 of flower. You can't even tell I defoliated at the flip. Top left is London mint cake. It's the shortest plant and I'm hoping I don't need to reach it in the later stages of flower. Bottom left is rainbow cake and the big girl on the right is pineapple express. She's much more leggy considering I started them at the same time. Same nutrition amount as last week. Just letting them stretch out. No issues so far.

Second week of flowering in the bag, and they’re all looking really healthy, even healthier than when I first threw them in the flower steady as she goes

420 Fastbuds Week 1 Gorilla Punch Auto What up what up grow fam. So our first weekly veg update is an awesome one with the girls maturing great. Drip system is working like a dream. They have definitely doubled in size and probably grown 2in or so. Showing good color of green with no present issues. I'll do my weekly preventive maintenance and go from there. All in all Happy Growing.

26-09-2021: 3rd week of veg-stage. Great. Will the be the last week or am I going to let them grow another week. I am switching to 12/12 as soon as the containers are not visible anymore. Then I also put the light on 100% power (75 right now). I sprayed the leaves with Hy-Pro Spraymix. Also topped the Runtz Muffin to slow her down a bit. Ladies almost touching the SCROG-net so probably next week starting to SCROG. I like that period on soil. Had no succes on hydro jet so I am curious how this will go. 27-09-2021: Ok.. The growth is good now, it's nice to see how they get a boost as soon as the roots hit the water. 5 cm in 1 night is really no exception. In the meantime, the first Gelato has just tapped it, so topped it right away. Now in doubt... The EC is at 1.1 and as you can see in the diagram below, the EC decreases slightly over a period of 3 days and the PH increases slightly. In fact, this indicates that the EC set is now almost perfect. (In a perfect situation the values ​​remain the same and only the water level drops). So I can go up slightly with the EC and the system is set up in such a way that as soon as the clock turns the EC goes to 1.4. However, I still assume that I am 3 weeks of pre-growth (that is now 11 days) and that means that the EC is still on the low side for 11 days. A low EC ensures faster growth is my experience so far (and is also confirmed by what I read about it). Now I can choose 2 options... continue to grow for a few more days on the low EC and then a little earlier to 12 hours or increase the EC slightly for stronger roots and trunks and then complete the 11 days. The danger of the latter is that they continue to grow quickly and that I will soon have a much too full net (after all, they generally want to grow considerably after the switch). Tough decision. Lighting basically the same story. Now running at 75% and I see nice wide plants with big leaves. Under the TSL, the plants are much more even than under the SP3000. You can see very well that the SP3000 actually hangs above the front row of ladies and that the light does not radiate to the back row. The TSL suffers significantly less from this. I could solve this by hanging the SP3000 a little higher for more spread, but the purpose of this test is to compare. What do you think? increase both lamps to 45 cm and then at 100% or just continue? The danger of raising is that they will stretch more and I don't want that because my net has a fixed height and that has proven to be fine in the past for an even scrog (see also Jack Herer round). I have to say that I can't wait for the ladies to hang full in the net. Daily tying is a very therapeutic activity for me, as is photographing the buds as they begin to take shape. Then I ask for advice on the following... I ordered Green Sensation this week with the idea of ​​adding it from the 4th week of flowering. My nutrition computer can only work on the basis of proportions (in this case 5ml/L hydor A/B and 1ml/L green sensation). However, the bottle advises to dose green sensation first and then adjust the EC. My computer won't do this. I therefore wonder whether I will not dose too little Green Sensation. How could I solve this? (daily manual dosing is not an option because of the recirculating system). 28-09-2021: Refreshed the water, Sunday/monday switching to 12/12. Irrigation turned off for rest of the round so I hope for the little lady that she survives that. Bond First Lady under the net so scrogging is starting now 😬 29-09-2021: Today I snapped the Red Hot Cookies (the only one😢) so moved the little purple Haze in her place. Besides that I decided that it is time for 12/12 so I switch the light scheme 3 days earlier. Hoping that an tiger EC will strengthen them a bit.

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 60 days and flowering stage was 70 days total (harvested tops at day 63th) the total weight of dry buds was : top buds 174 G + lower buds 55 G = 229 G my overview of strain with details: the seeds: unfortunately i only got 1 seed cracked out of 5 so i will not know how much this genetic can get different but at least i got the chance to grow once of this wonderful strain the plant : in every stage you can ensure that you are dealing with a high level plant , she will get big so you have to control her height LST and SCROG highly recommended , will grow very well with tick stalks and big fan leaves , has good resistance for stress and will respond very well to stress trainings , she really has gorilla power in herself , fresh buds on plant : buds are very compact and dense even from start , fresh blossoms smells like pineapple and mango , 2 different shades of sweet smells like you hold 2 junks of pineapple and mango in your hand and you smell them together, she is a trichome and resin factory , very very sticky , very oily , strong smell dried buds: very compact and dense , hard as rocks , has dark colors with purple hues inside it , it smells sweet smoke : very smooth and sweet like lollipop , pineapple , mango like , after 2 minutes it'll kick in and you'll get higher and higher with every breath , has a strange and especial high mind high mostly

All right, we are finally here on day 76 so over two and a half months of veg, we have her flipped... I've yet to set up my inline fan and carbon filter. I was going to buy another tent, but i'm gonna hold off until I move because then I'll have more room for a bigger tent .. i'm still up in the air as to what seed I'm poppin next, but it will be from Kannabia Seeds ... and Herbies purple haze auto from a sponsored grow.. Just not worth the time and to spend that much time and energy on something, when they are hit and miss .. i will say I definitely hit more than i've missed.But I don't like missing at all .. with that being said, I hope everyone is doing well next week will be her first flower week. I didn't want to start it this week as tonight is her first flip night.. Hope everyone is doing well. God bless happy Easter and happy growing 🙏

Buds everywhere…the smell is also coming along. I gave her too much tiger bloom which is noticeable on her leaf tips but the benefits are worth it. I had an attack of the aphids trying to destroy the stem but I pulled out the spray and got rid of them. She takes training really well and bounces back from the pest attack quite nicely. I am also impressed with the way she leafed out after the defoliation.

I was on 14 vacation and my tent went crazy. Didn‘t expect that the Stretch will be so strong. I have to defoliate

👉The final dry weight, which was 369g (13oz) is just buds, no trim or larf. Just Good big buds. Great plant overall. Had a phosphorus issue that lingered, it foxtailed at the end and in the last day hermie bitz appeared on almost every branch end cola. Sturdy branches, lots of food factories. Wonderful aroma that wasn't as stanky as most. Spend 4 hours trimming. Started at the bottom and worked my way up. I put the end cola of each branch on its own label clothes pin and hung on a rack. Each cola was weighed wet and cataloged. after 24 hrs I started putting each cola in a paper bag and the net buds in a larger bag. It took 5 days to reduce the dry weight to under 30%. When they hit this mark they went into the jars which were labeled according to their documented location. I figured the weigh reduction percentage by comparing weighs from the initial wet trimmed weight. In each jar I also added a hygrometer. Surprisingly the RH of almost ever jar was under 58%. None of the jars required any burping to remove excess humidity. At that point I added moisture 62% moisture packs and put the jars in the closet. I sampled bud J till this writing. It didn't start getting tasty till the 4 week mark.
