Tag 74 - 13.02.2025 Die Orange President Auto von FastBuds hat mir trotz einiger Herausforderungen sehr viel Freude bereitet. Das Ergebnis kann sich definitiv sehen lassen. Trotz kleiner Mangelerscheinungen konnte ich eine beeindruckende Ernte erzielen – die Buds sind groß und kompakt. Beim Drücken der Buds entfaltet sich ein angenehmer Orangengeruch. Auch wenn dieser nicht ganz so intensiv ausgeprägt ist, verleiht er dem Gesamterlebnis eine sehr angenehme Note. Ich bin zuversichtlich, dass das Curen die Terpene noch stärker zur Geltung bringen wird.

Day 43 12/06/2021- Beginning of week five of flower. She should be done soon, she will also get her final feeding soon. Day 45 12/08/2021- She got her final top dress today from here on out she is on her own all I will do is water with pain water PH to 6.2-6.8 when dry. Day 47 12/10/2021- She is coming along nicely. Very frosty wish she wasn't a auto so I could of clone her for sure. Today she got a nice treat as it rain in my hometown and that's the water she got. Hoping she is ready by the end of the year. I know she looks funny but she was never topped either. Day 49 12/12/2021- End of the week, nothing new.

Week 8 of flower is in the books and this show is quickly coming to an end. I said last week we had about 7-10 days and I was spot on at the 10 day mark. I was only wrong about the order. The cheese is ready to chop before the rest and the gorilla cookies, cherry Bomb and lemon haze will follow in due course. The cheese is a beast and it’ll take a little time to get it all run through the bowl trimmer. At least the big one goes first. Her tallest colas have foxtailed like mar, despite the late supercrop. You can tell where the sweet spot for the light is at about 10” distance from the canopy. Any closer than that and the tails begin to show prominently. It’s a good example of just how close you can get to these fixtures with a little bit of prior experience. It’s been noted for the next run😎👍😎. The res. is on an h2o2 only flush for the remainder until the rest are ready to come down. Not a moment too soon either - the pollen chucking project has stalled out waiting for these girls to finish and now that we’ll have a little extra room, we can start running our cuts in the aerocloner🤟. Not long at all now folks. Thanks for tagging along through all this. Learned a bunch about this system and we’re back to hardware mode to make some serious improvements for the next run🤙😎. I love hardware mode😉. Background/Repetitive Nonsense The strain line up on this grow is look’n quite saucy 😈. We’ve got 2 FB strains this time around - Gorilla Cookies (seems we always have some GSC cross in the works). Mainly because the colours look stellar and remind me of a sugar breathe we did last year that was 🔥. The other FB is their original Cheese strain... because we already smoked all our cheese... and we really like our cheese...😉. Emerald triangle was kind enough to include a freebie of Lemon Haze. Wasn’t really big on the list but we haven’t done a haze strain to write home about yet so worth a go👍. The last is a Cherry auto from Bomb seeds that we’ve been trying to get to for months. Let’s just hope that she’s not a dud like the last bean. The new digs for this run are courtesy MarsHydro👊. Their 2x4 single grow tent, paired with a shiny new 240w QB courtesy ViparSpectra. These folks were kind enough to discuss a collaboration and as a result, here we are to test out the gear with an inaugural run of autos. Each week, we’ll try to expand on some of the benefits of each, as well as any limiting factors or considerations that need attention when pondering purchase. Already I can say that both are high quality products in terms of overall craftsmanship. MarsHydro 2x4 Grow Tent: Excellent construction in terms of durability. Reinforced stitching on the zippers and corners ensures zero tearing. Conveniently placed screen vents and intake/exhaust ports. The ceiling exhaust port only exists on the right side. Perfect for me but not great if you’re running exhaust from the top on the left side (left side wall port makes up for this however). The aluminum frame is rigid enough to support the weight of the lights and accessories. Once you have some weight in the tent, she’s go’n nowhere and you can assemble and break it down in record time if moving or stashing the grow op. Only limiting factors I’ve noticed is that temp. Control will be an issue for a tent. It just doesn’t have the same insulating ability as a wood cabinet or other permanent enclosed space. No worries, this is offset by a small desktop heater and keeps the environment exactly where desired. The other issue was a production problem - the ceiling vent was accidentally stitched into the corner seams on the assembly line. Again, no real issue - just pulled it out with no damage or fraying to the tent or port👍.

Closest comparable to it that I’ve seen would be spiderfarmers line of qbs. They feature the same top-o-the-line components and roughly similar spectrums. Where VS takes the advantage is in the convenience of the dimmer nob which is easily accessible and works great at 50% with no strobing👍. The heat sink is also larger which contributes to lower temps. That’s not a good thing in my case but beneficial for most folks. I can already say that this will be a great fixture through all stages of growth. Where I know this light will excel will be in the veg. Stage for sure. Dimming function gives seedlings a much better chance of success with the ability to use lower lighting levels early on and the coverage area on a 240w is great. The average grower will find this panel suitable and fitting to their needs in a 2x4 grow space although I’d suggest 2 units if going any larger than that. The total output in this space equates to about 30w/sq.ft. Which is a decent amount of coverage based on power vs. Growprint. Ideal for veg. Certainly but, in flower - I tend to run closer to 50-60w/sq.ft to achieve higher yields. Again, similar fixtures have performed admirably in the past and while this wouldn’t be considered an “entry-level” fixture, I’d recommend that any grower new to the game not skimp on lighting and start with one of these. The price points are a great value for quality LED tech. These days, so there’s little reason to even consider a lesser fixture👍. I have no detail on limiting factors for this light as yet but have heard that stock branded fixtures don’t necessarily incorporate enough red diodes. I’ve seen no issue myself but confess - I’m no lighting guru.

Sembra ok,ma sarà un problema il risciacquo...quella di destra ha già un tricomi lattiginosi,su alcune zuccherine sono ambrati...le altre ancora hanno i pistilli bianchi, nemmeno li guardo i tricomi... sembra abbiano 15/20 giorni di differenza!

the last week was really sunny again and the temperatures are also constant. the flowers are becoming more and more pronounced. it continues to grow healthy and strong. heat, storms and heavy rain cannot harm it.

This was probably when I started to realize I should have done a lot more training. I didn't and we are where we are, but the plants look healthy as all get out. For my second grow and my first photoperiods, I couldn't be happier. Somewhere soon I axe the third plant, it was that or dedicate my entire 2x4 to it.

Hi! This is my first attempt at growing. I've had house plants for years and have cruised the reddit forums. Fingers crossed my green thumb stays consistent. I ended up germinating two ways with these Auto Shark seeds bred by Pyramid Seeds bought from Seedsman. One using the paper towel method and the other using a jiffy pod in a to-go container. To my surprise the impromptu jiffy pod sprouted in two days, whereas the PT method was a dud. The attached photos were taken today (day 6) since sprouting and transferring directly into a 3 gal fabric pot. I fed her two days ago and the soil is still running moist. I'm using a combo of Happy frog with extra perlite with organic earthworm castings. The flowering time for this seed claims six weeks so I'm curious to seed how this goes. I won an Emerald Harvest nutrient kit so I was planning to give her a third of the recommended dosage from their manual on the third watering. (Only watered once so far.) Humidity has jumped between 50 -80% over the course of the first week. I'm still getting used to my the spacebucket I've been constructing over the past few weeks. Which materials are as follows: -Growstar UFO LED 150W -LEDMO 5630 LED Strip, Daylight -120mm USB Fan (Outtake) -120mm High Speed Muffin Fan (Intake)(Had to buy fan controller for it cuz it was so loud/strong) -NAVADEAL Silver Reflective Mylar Film -(5) 5 gallon home depot buckets I bought a soil ph reader but I think its busted. I've bought a few gallons of grocery store water until I can get a ph reader and am just crossing my fingers the plant will be okay.

En el transcurso de la 3ra semana aplicamos un riego con 1ml/l de fertilizante Oro Negro para potenciar el crecimiento y realizar trasplante a una maceta más grande en los próximos días. ANÁLISIS NUTRICIONAL NITROGENO ORGÁNICO N 7,5% FÓSFORO P 1,6% POTASIO K 10% HIERRO Fe 0,10% AZUFRE S 0,6 % CALCIO K 0,5% MANGANESIO MN 0,3% COBRE CU 0,2% BORO B 0,25% MATERIA ORGANICA 86%

Started with a plain water feed. I’ll do a couple nute feeds before I start the flushing.

This week I couldn't go and watch the grow because I was out of town. The day before leaving I defoliated and transplanted. When I returned I found the girls in great shape. I am really in love with these 15 plants 😍

Everything is progressing normally. The weather is changing and temps outside are dropping so high temps in tent are no longer an issue. Other than the burnt tips from some sort of burn or defiency I have no complaints. I plan on harvesting BBK next week Wednesday. I fed them regular water right before taking the pics with 3 oz liquid worm castings mixed into 2 gallons. I have been feeding them each until first signs of run noff. The watering before this one (Sun 10/24) I gave them plain water, the one before that (Thur 10/21) I gave them the max dosage of what the general hydroponics 3 in 1 bottles recommend and didnt hold back like I normally do which is to give about half of what they recommend. It didn't appear to affect the plant to much as far as burn, the tips were already fried and the sclerosis didn't progress. I will flush the BBK this Friday and prepare her to harvest next Wed or Friday. I can't wait!!

Man this smells so sweet cant wait to smoke

01 December 2020 Do-Si-Wine This lady is just getting frostier by the week and looks really beautiful, very white frosty thcA and orange hairs coming out. The nugs are getting a lot thicker as-well giving more of smell off which smells very nice btw. Did some more defoliation on this lady and light penetration is a lot more efficient as well Sunset Sherbet Week by week the nugs are just getting thicker and more frosty. Throughout the week I did some nice defoliation on this lady to expose light to the lower bud sites to ensure that the nugs will yield a bit better. Thickest mug so far is 4cm in width and is 6,5cm in height and smells absolutely dank🔥 In general this lady is doing very well and smells very potent to the touch, I’m just waiting to see this strain turn purple as the genetic is. Another 4 - 5 weeks left until harvest.

The buds have started to get bigger and produce a lot of trichomes, very sugary, I started the bloom boosters, she feels really good 🌋💚

Uma estrutura muito linda essas pequenas árvores da Mirtilo, muitos galhos, muitos botões surgindo um caule bem forte para passar bastante nutrientes.
