Aug 29th - I prepped the plant for Flower, half a week early, so week 3, is legit even though it sounds eager. Plant looks so solid - fed 1gal of nutes yesterday - 2nd Schwazze tomorrow… 20 days from the 1st (10th) 30th - a meal of NPK nutes was provided + Calimag; 1 gallon - Schwazze carried out (#2) 20 days after going into Flower -posted 2 shots from Aug 9th Schwazze event; my First. Wow what a change in 21 days - next meal is water and will be to Run-off as required to drop PPM below 1500 Sept 1st - Meal time today is Water to Run-off. The last big feed saw elevated ppm in the run-off and it was flushed till it dropped below 1500. That was not the end, as today it gets a proper flush of 4 gallons of pH’d water, followed by a fifth gallon with Basic NPK nutes + Massive Bloom (12ml/Gal) at 1300ppm - as the last (5th) gallon went in, the PPM of the run-off tested below 1500ppm. I call that even till next time. And now I know theres no excess chems built-up in the bottom of the Pot; Forward it is - targeted pH going in has always been 6.4. The runoff had a pH of 6.3 and that is an awesome number to confirm. Targeted meals are now 6.5 pH - now the Flush is Done, it is time to Top-Dress and Amend the soil again. Same ingredients; Bat guano, Worm Castings, Azomite, Kelp Meal and “Power Bloom” + 3-4 oz of Dried Crushed Fan leaves from other grows. This is Scratched into the surface and mixed as best possible. Water as needed. Nutes as desired 3rd - fed 3.5L of pH’d water @6.6 through the Amended Soil. - more growth over-nite puts her above 115cm - last day week 3. Buds are forming as white hairs are Out

This week brought some challenges—I discovered thrips on the leaves of my plant. Thankfully, the infestation isn’t too severe yet, and I acted quickly to address the issue: 1. Sprayed the plant with plain water to knock off any pests. 2. Removed the top layer of soil. 3. Applied BioBizz Leaf Coat as a protective measure. I really hope this will help. After reading up on these nasty pests, I learned that they can completely devastate the leaves if left unchecked. Unfortunately, I have only myself to blame for their appearance. Due to the cold weather, I’ve been using a heater in the room with my growbox, which has caused the humidity to drop significantly. It sometimes dips as low as 30%, and it rarely goes above 50%. Most of the time, the humidity hovers around 35-40%, which is an ideal breeding ground for thrips. To answer the obvious question—yes, I do have a humidifier. However, my growbox has a very powerful exhaust fan (315 m³/h for an 80x80 space), so the air is refreshed too quickly for the humidifier to make a lasting difference. Aside from fighting thrips, I also made some adjustments to my grow this week. On Day 20, I did a little LST. Honestly, I wasn’t planning on using any training techniques in this grow, but I decided to give it a try anyway. One thing I can say for sure—I want to skip LST in my next grow. It’s quite inconvenient to water the plant when the leaves are practically touching the soil. Additionally, I defoliated the first two sets of leaves. I felt this was necessary to improve airflow around the plant and reduce the risk of pests spreading further. Watering: Day 17: 400 ml Day 20: 500 ml I’m keeping a close eye on the plant and hope to overcome these challenges successfully.

First grow of my life. Have a very basic and mostly DIY setup but so far (day 6) seedlings have kept a consistent growth and have initiated their set of second serrated leaves. Should have two full sets by tmr evening (end of day 7). I noticed that they were very dark and slightly droopy. started giving them bit more to drink and they have responded well. To all exp growers, any constructive comments, advice etc would be great. Plz refrain from commenting if all you have is hate to share! Stay safe friends!

- Fifth week Did a few trimming of some fan leaves at bottom PH around 5.5, still have to maintain with PH up daily Changed reservoir with a dosage of Base A- Base B- Vege- using 1.0 ML per Liter Went back to Silica as specified in feeding schedule by Kawsay Peroxide in order to help oxygen in water, the water is kinda dark tinted, roots have tinted as well, yet they don't seem slimy. Leaves and plants have shown small deficiency in nutrients, but overall they seem to look fine. I dont believe it's root rot but will have to raise Peroxide intake, hopefully I can diagnose the root within this week. Sexing seems to be female, its hard to tell if they're pistils or bud sites, but have not seen pollen sacs develop yet. Update: Final topping done (3 tops in total) prospecting 12 bud sites. Recover mode 3 days and onto last vegetative week. Will consider switching to flower depending on how she recovers.

Day 70 of flowering It has only been three days since my last update.. But hence the confusion of days past, I'll update it now again since this is day 70 and that markes week 10. The girls are looking very nice, if I may say so myself. The smell has intensified very much during the last days, yesterday when I opened the tent it really hit me hard in Tha nostrils in a good way. That smell that I couldn't set in words are still present but it smells lovely! I'm not at all sure how fast the trichomes are developing, so I'm checking up on them every day. This leads to alot of uncertainty of when I should start to flush. Some leaves have been yellowing for a while, at a slow pace and I fear that I might start the flush to early or late. But I'm thinking around day 71-75 will be the last day with nutritions. I have uploaded a picture of the trichomes, please let me know what you think?

The Ztrawberriez Auto is very resistant has a great sweet strawberry smell throughout the garden. As you can easily see from my grow question, I was initially afraid for the plants due to the high temperature in the greenhouse (as soon as the sun shone ~40 degrees). It turned out that the plant seemed to like it and rewarded me with beautiful buds with purple tips. Growdiaries won't let me delete the question otherwise this would have happened long ago... She finished very quickly and took just 70 days from seed to harvest. All this confirms that fastbuds is the right address for autoflowers. I'm already looking forward to the next run.

I start immediately apologizing for not respecting the week in updating the diary, but with work and looking after the plants I had no time. Now it is the end and I have collected everything. The experiments with ice water went really well and the pollen yield has increased again. The plant is spectacular and I am very proud of my work and what I have achieved. The buds are very compact and smell really exaggerated. This BlackBerry I cleaned it all out of the excess leaves apart from the little sugary ones and left it in whole branches and hung it on a clothesline that I am leaving in a dark room with the values checked at least for the next week so that I can start a new cycle. But the smell is just too much!!!! Great FastBud and sure I'll be making more varieties soon. The monkey has now burrowed on my shoulder and the desire to try this delight is more and more.

Whats going on ladies and gents we on the start of week 3 !! CH#2 did not make the cut so she has been removed from the tent and replaced with a mystery strain in the dome that will be revealed soon enough ! That being said CH#1 has been turned into a cloning project for future breeding projects that I have lined up . We are boosting up the nutrients from 0.5 ml/l to 1.0 ml/l CH#1 is responding well to the nutrient regime she is just really stretched out but I will be transplanting her soon enough and that problem will be fixed . Other then that no real complaints from this cat this week , just sailing it smooth . A big thank you to everyone who comes out and checks out the diary . A special thank you goes out to all my followers who come out daily and weekly to check out the updates much love and respect for you folks ! -Happy Growing!

Started mid-flower feeding this week, half gallon each on Mondays and Thursdays. I can't believe how amazing these girls are doing with these nutrients! Not much else to report on honestly, I received some companion plants in the form of Venus fly traps they seem to be working well for the dirt gnats. Not too worried about the pests though as they didn't really affect anything on my first grow either. Thanks for stopping in have a great week and happy growing!

First day went as expected. I put the paper towel in a small see-thru plastic container and put it on the table. With a bit of water and the seeds in side, the germination has now started! Day 2 no progression, moved the tray into my furnace room (pitch black and warm) Day 3 major progression. I got them out and started to prep the jiffy pellets. Shortly after I transferred the roughly half inch tarp roots with seeds into the jiffy pellets, root down, seed up, slightly covered with dirt. I soaked them in water (like a beginner i overwatered heavily knowing what I know now). I placed them back in the tray and put them at a window for light. (Note) the plan was to do outdoor so no light or tent was ordered at this point. Day 4-7 not much progression seeing as the clouds and rain showed up...

It's been a big growth spurt in the last 2 weeks. Check out my VIDEO! The lights have been moved up so they are about 12 inch from the grow. The lower wattage light has not performed aswell as the cr600 1000w. Its big brother has made much thicker, stronger and taller plants. The LST has worked miracles with this plant. So has the Voodoo juice. Will use again!

Week 9 – Day 65 (BT41) Everything went smoothly this week – one of those rare moments where it just flows 😎 🌿 RedPure#4 is now fully mature and ready for harvest! She put on a bit more bud mass 🍇 and looks great overall. ✂️ She’ll be chopped within the next few days. Also worth noting: The switch to BioBizz pH+ is paying off – I’m now able to raise the drain pH by about 0.1–0.2 points 📈 That’s a clear improvement compared to using Canna pH+ with Advanced Nutrients. For now, it's just routine: water, observe, enjoy 🙌

End of week 4 and all is great! This girl is beefin up to be a monster! Already got a ton of bud on her an their is still 4-6 weeks to go. loving this Hortilux Eye 1000w bulb. Really bringing the A game. Not so bumbed about spending $ 125 on a bulb now...lol haven’t had to really take any foliage off yet with the exception of the growth under the netting I removed at 1 weeks into flowering. I say “hell no” too popcorn fluff! Lol gotta save that energy for the top buds. Going great so far anyway, I made a DIY light bar for my light rail mover out of an old metal bed frame so that was cool. Saved $50 per tent... I ain’t no sucker gonna pay $50 for an aluminum bar with some bolts. Lol gonna hook up my “water coolers soon too since the summer is approaching and my water temps are begging to creep up again. Lol you may have noticed a computer case sitting in the corner of my grow tents in past videos, they are DIY water chillers made from some thermoelectric coolers and a copper cooling coil. Stay tuned to see them operational soon! I will be posting a DIY video on how to build one yourself out of an old desktop computer and a few other parts off Amazon. Cheers 💨

Flowering is coming along well.. each plant is starting to show signs of frosty fan leaves and the bud sites are starting to swell. I also took a video of both

Nice purple colour, Easy to grow, compact buds, cold resistant. But second pheno made a lot of seeds 😓 I dont recommend ThSeeds because the quality isnt that good and I feel like I wasted money and time with that strain. The smell isnt that insane
