420Fastbuds ApricotAuto/Week5 What up grow fam. Sorry for the late weekly update but was having some technical difficulties. This week has been eventful to say the least. My heater went out letting my Temps drop to high 40'f for a night or two and wow did the plants tell me they're angry. Definitely starting to bounce back but just goes to show the reselants of Fastbuds genetics. I lollipoped and did one more defoliation this week so hopefully flower stage will be smooth sailing. All in all Happy Growing

Rough week. Had a friend water for me while we were away. Didn't take my syringe watering seriously, fully saturated my little piggy and the roots are currently recovering from drowning... Is what it is, she'll recover. Already looking better than yesterday. Bud sites are still looking great, happy overall with the canopy still. Now to get her back to full health. Hope everyone had a smoother week than me, and all competition ladies are happy and healthy. Back to the farm for me. ✌️🌱

This is getting close to flush now and she smells lush very gasy and so sticky lol brilliant genetics

She continues to put on weight. It has been a hot week here in Northern California but I don't think its gotten over 80 F in the tent. She is looking great to me and I am looking forward to seeing some amber so I know its time to harvest.

This is the 6th week of growth. The plants were already in the flowering process. Maintaining the LST was very difficult; I find it really hard to do it without topping, and it's my first time doing it. The summer here is horrible, and it's really hard to manage the heat inside the grow tent. It was common to have external temperatures over 30°C, so you can imagine how much more it was inside the tent. On those days, I turned everything off, since my light adds a lot of heat, and I was avoiding going over 32°C. Unfortunately, this is the last week I took pictures of the plants. I became a bit disappointed later on because they started looking really bad for some reason I don't know. I think the heat waves really impacted them.

Week 3 has passed✔️ LST always with Ennio Morricone🏻‍♂️ She’s doing very well growing at fast pace with a beautiful green color on the leaves🔥 For the nutrients Plagron as always💜 Foliar spray Plagron vita race once a week💦

Losing headroom

Will comment on the upcomming days im a Little Busy, stay tuned.. 30.11: Fade starting to Kick in on the BBC Seems she’s ripening already, probably will be a little faster than the other ones. The rest ist still stacking beautifully. Got a little wind/RH burn on the tents corners but still better than Mold. Temp 26-28 C Rh current 50-58% expecting week 7 to stack further and start to ripen out on the both Lobs, the chemD will take longer overall bud got a very very Oldschool structure and smell.

First week of flushing.Here is my schedule for flushing with flawless finish. First flushing is with just a LOT lot water. Second flush:watering normal with flawless finish and flush after 20/24 Hours,let it sit overnight but be careful because trichomes will go crazy,if you don’t have enough milky trichomes this method will increase the trichome production immediately the next day. Repeat this method until you are satisfied with the results but don’t go more than 12/15 days,im using flawless finish 3 times in total so use it at least twice. 24 hours flawless finish isn’t doing any damage extra than the 8 hour schedule that advanced Nutrients prefer,but after 24 hours will start to damage the plant so you need to give a good flush after using it IM USING 1.5L WATER SO 2/2.5ml flawless finish

With a bigger pot could have definitely pulled off more but very happy with the result and quality of buds produced.

Die zweite Reihe Photos hat richtig aufgeholt und ist fast so hoch wie die 2wochen älteren , aber noch nicht so verzweigt. Habe ja die beiden Haupttriebe nach außen gebogen, dadurch sprießen jetzt die Seitentriebe stark.die Special Queen Auto sind alle fleißig am blühen.es sind komische phenos geworden. Zwei sind sehr klein geblieben und werden nur wenig abwerfen. Da ich einen 4.run außerhalb der Doku habe, wo auch noch 6autos wachsen, ist es mir egal 🙂. Es läuft. Deas wichtigste sind die Photos und die machen,was sie sollen.. bis nächste Woche ✌️

Pistils are slowly turning brown, trichomes cloudy and buds are ripening. Started flushing the soil this week for the next 7-14 days depending on the progress of the plants.

Man the Team at seedstockers have some awesome beans she has just been growing exceptionally strong. It takes well to training and loves to be fed nutrients in excess so far it loves the environment . I'm loving her structure the internodes are tight and she doesn't seem to mind stress at all. Here's to having some more great weeks ahead and cheers canna family ..

The girl is progressing well. She is receiving around 25 DLI of light. I did a topping.

Started this diary in the 6th week. Have been following this website for a while now but finally decided to post. Now entering the 6th week of Veg Here i have 5x Marmalade which looks lovely and absolutely brolic. Really easy to handle and responds well to the enviroment. They stand at rougly 22-25 inches tall wheras the blue gelato stands at around 18inches. Will flip later on this week. This is my first in coco usually i use the rdwc rush system. But enjoying being hands on with the coco. Using spider farmers SF 4000 currently on 100%

Looking good starting to fatten up now. Pistols browning. Still alot of clear trichomes. Start dragon force to help ripen phase for a week. Then flush and hopefully fade her out in good time!

💚 Amnesia Haze Auto by Zamnesia – Pheno B Week 7 | Small Pot, Big Dreams Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! One of the reasons I love growing multiple phenotypes is because every now and then a plant completely rewrites the expectations we had for her. Pheno B is doing exactly that. From the beginning she has been the more compact sister. Shorter. Slightly slower to flower. More reserved in the way she expressed her genetics. But this week... She's making a statement. Looking at her today, it's becoming increasingly difficult to believe she's growing in just 11 litres of soil. Sometimes the plants teach us lessons we weren't planning to learn. And I think this lady is about to teach me one. 🌱 The 12/12 From Seed Adventure If you're joining this diary for the first time, welcome! Every plant in this room has been grown under a 12 hours on / 12 hours off light schedule from the day the seeds germinated. There is no traditional vegetative period. Instead, each phenotype is allowed to express its natural architecture almost immediately, making it much easier to compare stretch, flowering speed, branch development, internodal spacing and overall efficiency. The goal isn't simply producing flowers. It's learning how genetics behave when every environmental variable remains identical. Same room. Same lights. Same nutrients. Same watering. Same environmental conditions. Only the genetics are telling the story. And every week they continue proving just how different sisters can become. 🌿 Why Only an 11 Litre Pot? This run also includes another little experiment. Normally, I prefer giving plants considerably more root volume when growing in soil. So naturally... My curiosity got the better of me. I decided to grow this phenotype in an 11 litre pot, fully expecting the smaller root zone to become the limiting factor later in flower. Instead... She's proving me wrong. The entire plant looks vigorous. Healthy. Balanced. Strong. Which reminds us of something very important. When we're feeding with bottled nutrients, even in soil, we're essentially supplying everything the plant needs directly through the irrigation. The roots still matter enormously. But bigger roots don't automatically guarantee bigger flowers. Genetics. Nutrition. Environment. Root health. Everything works together. This little experiment is becoming a perfect reminder that sometimes there are more variables involved than simple pot size. And honestly... I couldn't be happier about being proven wrong. 🌸 Flower Development Begins Accelerating This week the transition is unmistakable. Stretch is beginning to slow while flower production accelerates across the entire plant. Every growing tip is now producing clusters of bright white pistils. The calyxes are beginning to stack. The future colas are becoming easy to identify. Instead of long empty stems, the branches are now filling with flowering sites that promise to connect beautifully over the coming weeks. One thing I particularly enjoy is how symmetrical everything feels. The branches are evenly spaced. The internodes are short without becoming overcrowded. The central cola remains dominant while every side branch receives plenty of light. It's the kind of structure growers hope for because it naturally lends itself to dense, uniform flower production. Nature really did most of the work here. 🍃 Healthy Leaves Tell Their Own Story One of the easiest ways to judge how comfortable a plant feels is simply by looking at her leaves. This week they're saying everything I hoped to see. Rich green colour. Excellent turgor. No deficiencies. No toxicity. No unnecessary curling. No signs of stress despite the warmer summer temperatures. They're acting exactly as they should: Tiny solar panels converting light into the energy that will eventually become flowers. Sometimes growers become too eager to remove healthy foliage. Personally, I prefer letting the plant decide what she still needs. A little leaf tucking whenever necessary has been more than enough to keep every developing bud site exposed while allowing the canopy to remain full of energy-producing leaves. Sometimes patience is still the best form of training. 💧 Feeding for the Bulking Phase With flowering now fully underway, nutrition continues shifting toward supporting heavy flower production while maintaining healthy metabolism throughout the canopy. This week's feeding program includes: • Plagron Terra Bloom — 2 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L • Plagron Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L • Plagron Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Plagron Green Sensation — 1 ml/L • pH adjustment using Plagron pH Plus and Lemon Kick The EC has now increased to 1.95, providing plenty of available nutrition while still allowing the plant to feed comfortably. Green Sensation continues playing an increasingly important role. Rather than acting as a simple PK booster, it supports nutrient uptake, flower development, resin production and overall plant vitality during the weeks when the plant's energy demands increase dramatically. So far... She's absolutely loving it. 💡 Welcoming Lumiflora Under-Canopy Lighting This week also marks another exciting milestone. I've introduced Lumiflora under-canopy lighting into the room. Most growers focus almost exclusively on illuminating the top of the canopy. But once plants begin developing dense flower sites, the lower and inner branches often receive significantly less usable light. That's where under-canopy lighting becomes incredibly interesting. Rather than replacing the main fixture, it complements it. By delivering additional light underneath the canopy, the goal is to improve photosynthesis in areas that would normally spend most of the day in shadow. What am I expecting? • Better lower flower development. • More consistent bud density throughout the plant. • Improved light penetration into the middle of the canopy. • More efficient use of every flowering site. Will it perform miracles? Of course not. Good genetics, healthy roots and proper nutrition will always remain the foundation of a successful grow. But if Lumiflora helps those lower flowers mature closer to the quality of the top colas, it'll become another valuable tool in the garden. I'm genuinely excited to watch the results unfold over the coming weeks. 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Once again, consistency continues doing the heavy lifting. Current grow room conditions: • Week 7 Flower • Height: 130 cm • Light schedule: 12/12 • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.95 mS/cm • Root zone temperature: 21°C • Nutrient solution temperature: 21°C • CO₂ concentration: 639 ppm Stable environments allow genetics to express themselves without constantly fighting environmental stress. That's exactly the kind of consistency every grower should aim for. 📸 This Week's Gallery Looking through this week's photographs, it's hard not to smile. The full-plant portraits show a beautifully proportioned structure with impressive symmetry from top to bottom. The macro shots reveal fresh calyxes stacking around every flowering site, while countless bright white pistils continue reaching toward the light. One image that really stands out is the central cola. She's beginning to establish herself with confidence, surrounded by perfectly spaced secondary branches that already hint at a very satisfying canopy later in flower. The foliage remains vibrant and healthy, creating a beautiful contrast against the dark Zamnesia backdrop. Sometimes photographs capture more than appearance. They capture momentum. And that's exactly what these pictures show. This plant has found her rhythm. 🔮 Looking Ahead The coming weeks should become incredibly exciting. Stretch will gradually come to an end. The calyxes will begin swelling. Flower stacking should accelerate across every branch. Resin production will slowly begin increasing. And with the addition of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting, it'll be fascinating to compare how the lower flowers develop alongside the upper canopy. The little 11 litre pot that initially felt like a questionable decision... May end up becoming one of the biggest surprises of this entire project. She's certainly giving me plenty of reasons to believe it. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure.
