Que pasa familia, otra vez actualizo aquí, 3 semana de floración finalizada, hasta aquí es lo que hay estos clones están muy sanos enraizaron de miedo y así andan. Subí dosis de nutrientes importantes para fomentar la floración y potenciar el sabor. Pronto empezaré añadir también o Verd rice y algún Pk duro para engordar las flores. Aunque sean pequeñas las plantas tienen que salir muy buenas flores. Hasta aquí es todo poca cosa más en este proyecto un abrazo y buenos humooos 💨💨💨

SPREADSHEET: Jack's vs. Advanced: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HtHnZOxMHtBK5DFQjpBun2lbhDxYVhI7lJaq4W6xbyk/edit?usp=sharing 10/5 - Day 44: Things are good. Trellis netting is working and I'm spreading the canopy pretty well. We'll see what happens! I would recommended against the actual net I purchased, this shit is bulky, big and too stretchy.

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 5/16- Here we go into the first week of veg and second week since breaking ground for the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod! 5/18- Right away what ever has been chewing on my other outdoor plants, has now decided to take a taste of my Papaya Sherbet so I'll be spraying with Neem Oil and adding a ring of Diaotomascous Earth around the Papaya Sherbet to deter any slugs... I don't like slugs! 5/20- Rain showers yesterday handled the watering duties and all I did was to add some straw to a couple of bare spots on the mound. 5/22- There's two weeks on the books for this pretty little photoperiod from FastBuds and I can't wait to see what she'll do in the coming weeks! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno A Week 6 | Flowers Take the Lead One of the things I enjoy most about running a phenotype hunt is watching each plant reveal her personality one week at a time. Some explode with vigorous stretch. Others remain compact while quietly building flowers. Cash Express Pheno A seems to have found her own rhythm. Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! For anyone joining this diary for the first time, every plant in this project is being grown using the 12/12 From Seed method. Instead of deciding when flowering begins by changing the light cycle, every seed receives 12 hours of light from the day it germinates, allowing each phenotype to determine its own pace. Six weeks in, Cash Express Pheno A has fully embraced flowering. Now the focus is no longer on making flowers... It's about building them. ⸻ 🌼 The Flowering Engine Starts Running This week brought one of my favourite moments of early flower. The fresh white pistils that first appeared last week are now multiplying rapidly, and nearly every branch has begun forming small clusters that will eventually become proper buds. The plant may not be the tallest in the room, nor the largest, but she's proving that size isn't everything. Her energy is clearly being invested where it matters. Flower production. The internodes remain nicely spaced, allowing excellent light penetration throughout the canopy, while every growing tip seems eager to become its own flowering site. It's still early... But the blueprint for harvest is already being drawn. ⸻ 🌿 A Hands-Off Approach One thing that hasn't changed this week is my philosophy. Apart from a little gentle leaf tucking, I've deliberately avoided unnecessary intervention. No heavy defoliation. No aggressive pruning. No major training. Early flowering is one of the busiest periods in a plant's life. She's stretching, producing flowers, expanding her root system and adjusting her hormonal balance all at once. Whenever possible, I prefer letting her focus on that work instead of recovering from mine. Sometimes the best thing a grower can do... ...is simply stay out of the way. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot Continues To Deliver The AutoPot system continues doing exactly what it was designed to do. With the AquaValve automatically supplying fresh nutrient solution whenever the tray empties, the plant has complete control over when she drinks. There's no guessing. No fixed watering schedule. Just healthy roots deciding when they need food and water. Week after week, she continues responding beautifully to this consistency, maintaining steady growth while allowing me to focus on observation instead of constant irrigation. Sometimes the smartest systems are also the simplest. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding This week's reservoir remained straightforward and stable, consisting of: • Terra Bloom – 1.9 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L The slight increase in nutrition made last week appears to have done exactly what I hoped. A few of the oldest fan leaves continue fading as the plant naturally reallocates nutrients toward new growth, but the process remains slow, controlled and completely expected. The upper canopy looks healthy, vibrant and full of life. Sometimes older leaves simply finish their job. And that's perfectly okay. Solution parameters remained stable at approximately EC 1.78 mS/cm with a pH of 6.0, providing a comfortable balance for continued flower development. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Environmental conditions remained very consistent throughout the week. • Day temperature averaged 29°C • Night temperature remained around 25°C • Solution temperature stayed close to 22°C • Root zone averaged approximately 21°C • Relative humidity remained near 60% • Atmospheric CO₂ averaged roughly 639 ppm With flowers now beginning to establish themselves across the canopy, maintaining stable conditions becomes increasingly important. Healthy roots, consistent nutrition and a predictable environment allow the plant to dedicate her energy where it matters most—building flowers rather than reacting to stress. Everything continues moving exactly as planned. ⸻ 📸 Behind This Week's Photos This week's photographs capture a very enjoyable stage of the grow. The close-up shots highlight clusters of bright white pistils appearing at nearly every flowering site, while the full-plant portraits reveal a beautifully balanced structure with evenly spaced branches reaching toward the light. One detail that also stands out is the gradual fading of a few lower fan leaves. I intentionally include these moments because real grows aren't about chasing perfection. They're about understanding what the plant is telling us. In this case, she's simply shifting resources toward the next stage of her journey. And honestly... She looks fantastic doing it. ⸻ 🔍 Looking Ahead Next week should bring one of the most exciting transitions yet. The stretch will begin slowing down, while the flowers themselves should start stacking more aggressively along each branch. I'll continue keeping my hands mostly off the plant, limiting myself to occasional leaf tucking whenever a large fan leaf shades an important flowering site. The goal remains simple. Provide the best possible environment... ...and let the genetics do what they were designed to do. If she continues on this path, the coming weeks should become very exciting. ⸻ 💚 Thank You Thank you to everyone following this journey and growing alongside me. Whether you're here to learn something new, compare techniques, ask questions, or simply enjoy watching these beautiful plants develop, I'm genuinely grateful to have you here. A special thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can document, learn and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for the Cash Express genetics that continue to reveal their unique character with every passing week. 🌿 Plagron for providing the nutrition that supports every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the consistent lighting that powers this entire project. 💧 AutoPot for making irrigation beautifully simple while allowing the plants themselves to decide when they want to drink. And finally... Thank you to every grower who stops by these diaries. Every comment, every question, every bit of encouragement—and even every constructive criticism—helps make this project more valuable for the entire growing community. Growers Love, and I'll see you next week as Cash Express Pheno A leaves early flower behind and begins the exciting journey of turning these fresh white pistils into the resin-covered flowers we've all been waiting for. 🌱🚂💚

Week 8 and finally in flower. Grow is going great. No burning or drooping, she is standing at attention soaking up the rays. I Have been defoliating leaves over bud sites and pinching off new lower growth. Started using a bloom booster called Flower Fuel. Used once so far, not sure about results yet. She has a lot of bud sites so far and they are all at a pretty even level. She is stretching now because of flowering so the canopy is a little more uneven. There should be a lot mor bud sites to come up and this plant should have some nice buds. Week 8 picture update - grow still growing great. Everything is praying to the lights! Also no problems with nutrients.

💫The week went great. After the first stress, growth seemed to slow down, but it worked out, the plant began to expand. I water it every 3 days. I continue to bend the stem along the axis of the pot. I bend the branch that will pass through the fastest. 💚I started giving supplements late. Only on the 33rd day I gave him fish and everything else. 🍀 Week showed good growth, but it could have been better, let's see what happens with the additives. I continue to twist the stem in a circle (I don't know where to twist it). And I also cut off the leaves a little bit, about once a week, as they block the light (a friend says not to overdo it with defoliation, let's see what happens).🍀

Hello This is the end of week 8 and the beginning of week 9 of veg. Getting her top, bigger, branches spread out, under the bottom rung of the cage. And I'll bring the smaller bottom branches up through the middle. It will work out good. The plant is doing good, but the leaves are so big, I might have to remove some so the light can get in to the smaller ones. I'm watering with 3/4 strength nutrient now. Don't need her getting too big. OK. Be Great. Chuck.

These ladies are looking damn fine and of the two they are what seems identical - 👍 Sweet Seeds for gen stability. Both were topped 7 days ago and the inside lower nodes all removed. I’m only looking for A,B grade colas on both. Stay safe, keep the ✌️

Starting to really stretch nice. Drinking a good amount of water at this point. About half a gallon every 3-4 days. Feeding them lightly, bout 1/4 strength once a week.

Just notice that one of the fan leaves that I put a small LST clip on has snapped off. Thinking that I may be better off sticking to the large clips removed a few of the LST clips and tied down branches with garden wire. I think this may be the better solution. Accidentally used 1 tsp for Bloom instead of 1/2 tsp. 5ml should be fine for a large plant, hopefully no nute burn as a result. So far she seems to be loving the extra nutes. Plants appear to have loved the 5ml of Bloom. No signs of burn this morning. Did some defoliation today to try and remove large leaves that were blocking light to bud sites

Plant has shown slow but healthy growth since its arrival, LST continues and I've managed to keep the plant at the same height it was last week but now at a horizontal angle. I did up the nutes for one feed to a slightly under recommended dose but in the days following I noticed the plant looking a little 'droopy' and since she has been with me she hasnt been drinking very well so I opted to flush her for a feed, since then she has seemed very happy :) whilst drinking much better (possible nute lock was imminent). Now back down to half doseages with the exception of CalMg (to help after flush) but will be increasing them in the following days. As of next week I will be transferring her and another plant my partner is nurturing into single bucket DWC set ups. Fingers crossed I will see some hearty results for making the crossover to hydro.

Grow Journal Week Zero : Special Project Kickoff 🌱 Hello dear growers and growerettes, I’m thrilled to start this new grow journal, featuring a special project that I'm incredibly excited about. Here are all the details for Week 1: Plant Details The plants are already 9 weeks old when transplanted and have been kept alive through careful repotting. They are topped and include 3 plants of the Banana Krumble feminized strain from Greenhouse Seeds. 🌿🍌 Tent Setup I’m placing them in a 90x90x200 cm tent. They will be in 20 liter fabric pots filled with Living Soil from Florganics. Watering will be managed by the Blumat system, which works particularly well with my living soil, as the soil needs to be kept constantly moist. 💧 Soil Additions Nematodes were added to the soil while mixing the living soil, not during transplanting. Control System Everything is monitored by my TrolMaster Tent-X system, thanks to TrolMaster, who kindly provided me with the controller. This system also controls and dims my lights. The exhaust system has been upgraded to the extremely quiet AC Infinity system, controlled by a separate controller that also manages my fan. 🌬️ Partner and Special Offer I’m partnering with Alchimia Grow Shop, where you can use my code Budz_Bunny to save up to 20% on seeds and up to 10% on the rest of the assortment. Don't miss out on this great deal! 🛒💰 Goals and Expectations Last year, I overextended myself by trying too much and expanding too rapidly, which led to less control over my grow. Therefore, I’ve decided to go back to basics: only one strain in the tent to refine my skills. 🌱 To focus more on one thing, I chose the Blumat system, which works particularly well with my living soil as it needs to stay constantly moist. During my last Automatic run, I introduced the plants around week 4, which was not the best decision. It was too early, so I had to top them to keep them small, leading me to practice mainlining. I succeeded with one plant, but learned a lot from the other two without any serious damage. After 6-7 weeks of growth under truly wild conditions in terms of VPD and stress, they were finally moved into their 20-liter Living Soil fabric pots and the humidity and temperatures were adjusted. Weekly Progress This journal starts in week 9. The ladies have perfectly adapted to the soil and recovered well in the 2 weeks since being placed in Living Soil. I will create a timelapse of the flowering phase; due to the above-mentioned conditions, it wasn't possible during the vegetative phase. At times, I was really worried about the ladies, but they seem to be recovering. I am excited to see what this run will yield. Watering Schedule An aquarium pump constantly supplies the watering watertank with oxygen. I am eager to take you on this journey with me. Let’s see how this setup works and what you all think! Thank you for joining me, and stay tuned for more updates. 🌿✨

had a bit of a nightmare. bit much on over water and may have had a nutrient lockout. took one sweet cherry pie out and replaced with seedsman northern lights auto. also added a few more of those in the tent 5th dec. was unfortunate as this week was for topping. went ahead and did it. will be very careful next week. Purple berry Kush came on strong this week. took the nutrients fine. less damage from over water.

Yooo gang updateee!!! Soo bad news first, the small tent with the godfather og mother had sadly passed away and expired, simple put she got way to close to the light AND turns out the air discs I was using were completely swalloed and wrapped up by the roots, so that mega blows. NOW the good news, I actually have a couple new plants in the large tent with the clones, a GDP that's about 4 weeks in on veg, and a NYC Sour Diesel which is about 2 weeks out from seed, will keep updating on what I do with those, other then that the clones from the godfather og are doing really really well will keep updating as the days and weeks go on thanks for stopping by gang!!!!
