This was the last week of flowering and therefore I stopped giving any nutrients for a good FLUSH. This is very important in order to avoid a harsh smoke later when the plants are dried, because any nutrients left in the plant will burn your throat and the weed will hurt while you smoke it. Both Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) plants have developed well and carry hefty top buds on each side branch and also the main cola. The lower regions also carry buds, but those are a little more fluffy and not so big and dense as the top buds. Every bud is COVERED IN TRICHOMES and the plants glisten in the light, they are FROSTY AS HELL! The plants have a STRONG AROMA now, which is sweet and peachy with hints of sandalwood. They smell ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and I cant wait to try the dried end-product. All in all I can only recommend this strain, its not the biggest yielder, but definitely delivers connoisseur grade weed. Hats off to Mat from House of the Great Gardener in Canada, he has made another GREAT cross and I hope he will release this variety soon! 👍😍😎

Grow Diary – Week 6, Day 1 of Flowering Boom, today marks Week 6, Day 1 of flower and things are moving along nicely. Buds are stacking and the aromas are straight-up explosive — seriously, it’s getting loud in the tent. PPMs are holding steady around 1000 and I'm dialing in pH to 5.8 every time, no exceptions. The only gripe I’ve got is how dense and crowded the plant has become. I got a bit greedy during training, went for too many shoots packed too close together. Now there’s a ton of foliage and the lower bud sites just aren’t getting the light they need. I’m in there every single day at lights-on, doing leaf tucking and rearranging to get better light penetration to those lower sites and hopefully avoid a bunch of larf. Lesson learned for next round: focus on strong main shoots only, less is more. But with the way things are going, I’m still optimistic I’ll pull at least 7 oz of solid, dank bud. Whatever ends up on the fluffier side will go to canna butter, nothing wasted! Airflow’s solid. Got three fans in action one low, one mid, and one up top keeping everything circulating. Humidity’s on the drier side, which is intentional to help prevent mold, powdery mildew, or pests, especially with how tight the canopy is. Gotta stay ahead of the game. Plant might be a little wild right now but overall we’re on track. Fingers crossed for a strong yield. Let’s go.

5/27 curious to see where this week ends up at 5/29 the one plant indoors is packing on weight. The one I put outside to finish (possibly stupid) seems to be maturing faster but bulking slower. She's seemed healthy this whole time. Not even a burnt leaf tip 5/31 attempting to take pictures in different lighting to get a better idea for yall viewers

Not much to report here. Buds are there, now just waiting for them to fatten up. This guy has been through the wars so I’m really interested to see how much weight it puts on. Also window cleaner came early yesterday and must have got a good look at the plants. Now it’s twitchy bum time for a couple of days. Hopefully my front door doesn’t get smashed in.

i love the flowering stage .........im new to this site i love to get or give advice very open minded into new styles of growing!!!!!!!!!!.....................i kept up my lst 5th day 2nd week of flower im all caught up on my update!!!

"What you get for a bag seed" week - I've stopped using the Nitrogen reach nutrient. Bloomax is 1.7:14:14.5 NPK, by the leaves it seems like they have a slight nutrient burn, so it feels right to reduce nutrients. - I've done some really low stress training on PE, just opened a light space for lower buds And............... - 'I think I saw a pollen sac', indeed suddenly something green appeared on the top part one of BD's biggest colas.... I've decided to use tweezers and get it out - Now I imagine hermis everywhere, I've read about them a bit, mainly looking for images.... Something about PE doesn't feel right. Just spoke to friend and he also thinks PE has many pollen sacs. I'm going to try to save it - problem is I can only see the bastards when I take a picture with extra zoom... at least she's not huge. I guess BD is pollenated by now.... will update..... EDIT: I've transferred PE outside, week 6 of flowering starts today, so I think I'll harvest her in 10 days. She originated in a bag seed, so I'm taking it easy, learning a lot!!!! My first grow is kind of a rehearsal - the feminized seeds arrived couple of weeks ago and I hope to start a new diary soon :)

Jours 14 : 26/10/24 Elle se porte bien Elle est devenue beaucoup plus violacée et attrape quelques nuance de rouge. La croissance continue, on voit encore des signes au niveau des nouvelles feuilles, elles sont verte mais encore remplie de trichomes. L’odeur est encore agréable, me donne envie de le sécher et de l’extraire! Hâte de voir la suite 👨🏻‍🌾 Me restais un peux d’espace j’ai mis un mini rosier il a l’air de se plaire

Week 3 for the watermelons 😁 time goes fast when you have fun! The buds are slowly starting to get bigger and more tricomes are observed, it seems that the girls liked the easy bloom tabs

Ahojte všetci tak sme sa dočkali a máme tu krásne jarné počasie, ktoré už čoskoro bude veľmi ovplyvňovať môj kútok šťastia a vlhkosť bude nepriateľ číslo jedna. Samozrejme kitky sú ako Bratstvo Neohrozených a použijem Aero 360 kapsly na vlhkosť. Na začiatku 4. týždňa flower À la carte hnojív sa zatiaľ nemení, držím sa rovnakého tempa a čakám kedy začne obľúbený proces hrnček var a kitkám bude chutiť viac. Cal-mag Xtra je dosť silný a veľmi rýchlo vie dvíhať EC preto sa ho snažím dávať len každú druhú zálievku, pokiaľ nevidím nedostatky.Keby je taká možnosť chcel by som vidieť ten proces čo sa deje v koreňovej zóne vnútri v pote. Niečo ako tá rozprávka bol raz jeden život. 👉👉👉👉👉Bol raz jeden kutil ktorý sa v problémoch stravovacích pre kitky topil 😀. Ec čistej vody 0.5 tu sa začali moje problémy v kvete. Poďme pekne od začiatku. Celú vegetáciu som nepoužíval xmag calmag a všetko fungovalo hnojil som každú zálievku všetko podľa plánu. Výrobca udáva xmag Hnojit iba 1x týždenne ale ak som tam dával Magnézium 1ml začalo mi to strašne dvíhať EC k 2 a potom som začal dávať vodu hnojka fungovalo to do určitej chvíle keď tie kitky začali vykazovať hlad od hnojív. Ťažke tvrdá voda a calmag spôsobuje v mojom prípade,že sa mi tam usádzajú mineráli Ec prudko stúpa. Do tejto ruskej rulety som pridal enzimy canazim nech sa to tam trocha čo tam nemá byť rozloží. Samozrejme ten cal-mag hodím ale bude ho len mierne lebo nechcem sa potopiť ako Titanic. Preto aj predchádzajúce grow,keď som nemal EC meter a stále som tam dával Hnojky pálilo kitky lebo problém bol hlavne vo vode a keď som tam všetko namiešal tak to EC bolo vysoko a potom aj výsledky boli aké boli. Ťažke tento trn s päty som dal preč a kitka hneď po vstupe ďalšia zalievka ukázala s hnojkami hneď iné hodnoty a to som hnojku dal 2x za sebou. Teraz čakám ako sa to bude ďalej už správať a verím, že toto bol hlavný problém, ktorý ma brzdil a môžem dávať Hnojky už stále a nebáť sa, že to budem kaziť. Držte palce zdravý Kutil.

So we've hit day 49 with the girls! Everyone seems to be happy. The 2 little runts are now the biggest in the crop, they're super stretchy and about a week behind in flowering. I hope to be able to harvest all the plants at once as I plan to dry in my tent, but if I have to do a staggered harvest then, I guess I gotta do it. Nutes are listed above, everything has been working excellent so far. (I may be trying different coco nutes next run, as I'm suspecting the H&G set I'm using has contributed to the stretchiness of the girls.) UPDATE - DAY 51 - 09/01/21 Everything seems to be just fine at this stage in time. the runts are flowering slowly, so i hope they pick up sometime soon. 1 of the plants(the healthiest since day 1) seems to be a week or so ahead in flower. I'm still hoping to chop the whole tent down at the same time (Fingers crossed!). UPDATE - Day 53 - 11/01/21 The girls seem to be happy today. Pheno type 1 ( plant 1 + 2) - Much more bud production than the rest of the plants. pheno type 2 (plant 3 + 4) - runts of the litter are now the stretchiest out of the lot Pheno type 3 (remainder of plants) are inbetween pheno 1 & 2. I'm still hoping to harvest the majority of the girls at the same time, still have a while to go though :) Thanks for stopping by!

We enter the second full week of flower. I went and got some nutes to start adding in sparingly to the watering sessions. Mild mix from Foxfarms of their Tiger Bloom formula. I didn't catch that the large plant's leaves were curling pretty tellingly so I didn't realize I was about to overload the nutes for that plant when I should have been flushing for a week. I had supercropped this large plant as it was 6" taller than the others but it bounced back so quickly. Five colas snapped and turned 90 degrees, bounced back in a day or two. It did allow the others to catch up a bit. I find that the one potential male I removed was 100 a male as it now had well developed pollen sacs. I had this plant outside alonside the other two potential herm/males. I put the two questionable ones on the roof and chopped the male down.

Day 14 : Hi all , hope we are well and healthy. The new Exotic girls are doing their breeder very proud. All have settled in to their pots and are on their 3rd nodes now with upright and straight out leaves. They are all in a good position directly under the sp3000. inhave kept them at a good 24 inches away so far and will see how they reach up during this week. I plan to top them to encourage a wider plant each pot dependant on how they grow. If they stay smaller in height then I may pull them over to create a 5-way manifold for chunky mains. All in all a nice steady week I will be starting to feed them Mega crop in a day or two to get their leaf colour to the most energising I can. I am watering on the outer edges mainly, this should encourage the roots to spread to the whole pot and give a strong foundation for big buds hopefully. Be safe folks.

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 6/18- Week 12 and the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower from FastBuds is on a mission! The amount of growth happening right now can only be described as explosive, with new shoots appearing and existing branches going crazy with growth! 6/20- Our summer is here and we're under an early heat wave this week with daytime temp's hitting the mid to upper 90's ℉ with heat indexes in the low 100's ℉... in short, IT'S FNG HOT!🔥🔥🔥 I'm watering the Wedding Cheesecake FF daily now with 5-7g of straight well water from the garden hose. I'm watering at sundown so that the water will have some time to soak down into the soil before the heat evaporates it. The coating of straw that I previously spread over the soil has helped a lot as well. 6/22- The weather continues to relentlessly bake everything outside... many thanks for a good A/C!❄️ The daily watering continues and I also went ahead and removed a bunch of foliage that was below the trellis net. 6/24- Today I top dressed the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake FF with 2 cups each of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with 1 cup of Down To Earth Bio-Fish 7-7-2 and 1/2g of Wiggle Worm castings. After top dressing and working the amendments in by hand I replaced the straw coating over the soil and watered them in with 5g of straight well water via garden hose as usual. There goes another week for the Wedding Cheesecake FF and it won't be long before she begins to show signs of pre-flowering! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

week 9 was a good week I watch my pollen sacks grow into beautiful pods cant wait to use it plant doing pretty good health and strong

Alright Week 4 and end of treatment , start of flower... Maybe it's not just there for calling it flowering week one... But still... Videos still in Spanish. See you next week!

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?

No technique at this point just watching her flowers develop. This is going to be my first harvest so I'm super excited. Have a clone of the mother that I will use to produce seeds

Harvested on day 113 after ending week 9 of bloom. after washing week ago with adding flora kleen and then after 3 days turn light to 48 hours darkness before harvest. First trim in harvest defoliated big fan leaves with all the leaves without sugar and the tip of the small leaves. When the buds will be dry ill do second trim untill the bud will be like dense diamond. So, really love this strain and i give her a score of 9/10. First, for the buds beauty,dense. purple,red,yellow,pink and blue are showing on buds and its realy amazing.10/10. Smell are very sweet and strong of grapes.9/10. Taste is very fruity sweet grapes and i like it.9/10. Very strong effect on mind but feel very good.9/10. So, for final, 9/10. Something like week drying and ill update more pics and videos. *Added video of drying buds at day 4. *Added video and pics of well dried buds. ill add more stunning pics soon.

Solo cup challenge continues to press along. Not much change, plants are in veg, growing and healthy. Still a few weeks before the flowers start so I hope to get a bit of size going before it does. Having fun and really like looking at the other entries in this contest. Check out WildeWeed, Butterstotch and BeanswithPork, silky, larimar, fireman
