Flowers beautiful flowers! 🌺 to start of dynomyco has really done it’s job with the purple urkle and she already in bloom and is nearly to the second scrog, the grape ape has ONLY just started her stretch as she’s right at the first scrog about to push through as she only just pushed pistols today and I’m putting that down to her healing through transitioning as I had to trim her leaves and lower stems during transition as they’d be a problem later on! But all in all a great week and on my way to a great flowering!

This week was a busy one in the gardens! After a 7 day dry my harvest from last week was ready to come down! It did dry out a little quicker than I'd like, but still went in the jar around 57% and still smells really terpy and not like hay. I kept the humidity around 50-60% in the dry room however I didn't supplement humidity with a humidifier, i do have an ACI humidifier, but I didn't wanna run it in the summer and accidentally mold the crop! I just ran my dehumidifier at that setting so maybe it got a little dry in there! I trimmed all 5 plants in one day to prevent over drying in about 13 hours. I used a trim bin, trim brush by canna brush and a normal pair of springed shears. I'm curing in Mason jars now. I was able to move the plants in the tiny Mars Hydro Clone tent to my flowering tent. My Vivosun 4x8x6, under my HLG Blackbird at setting 1 to get adjusted. This week I'll get my par meter back from my grow bro and get a good reading. Im going to be transplanting these plants to their final containers as soon as I hit the local grow shop and grab a little more soil! After that I'll adjust the par for full veg and let them really rage! It feels good to finally get some space for them. My larger tent is way better equipped ventilation wise as well, I have 4 clip fans and my 8 inch exhaust fan in there. I currently have the tent sitting at 74-71°F and 56% Humidity. Ethos: Lilac Diesel #22 (x) Grandpa's Cookies #7- This Seedling has a decent internode spacing between it's branches and is keeping them mostly even with very little low stress training. I have been bending the top most branches to help the plant get a little bushier! It's leaves are very dark and doing a little clawing so I'm holding off on the Trinity by Roots Organic! It doesn't appear to bad! It's main stalk is very thick and reminds me of Raspberry Ripple #1! When it's in veg! I'm excited to see if this plant is one I'll keep around or not! I'm definitely hoping it's stretch in flower is containable in my shorter space! Raspberry Ripple Clones (#1 and #2)- The Number One Phenos are looking beefy already, one plant is starting to yellow just a little bit and looks like it could use a transplant here soon! Other than that these ladies are raging as usual. The higher ppfd has kept them really bushy and symmetrical. The Number 2s are still looking really healthy but are the smallest plants in the garden as usual! Finished Flowers (Raspberry Ripple #1 and #2)- This harvest definitely hits a lot harder than my last one! Having the microscope to really get a good look at my trichomes and pushing the plants and extra two weeks really made a big difference! Ripple #1- These buds are big and purple! Decently frosted! The leathery, black licorice smell Ripple #1 gives off, is really strong this round! The harvest weighed 7oz 25 grams, 6 oz and 16 grams of "A" Nugs, and 1 oz 9 grams of popcorn buds! Ripple #2- The Ripple #2 is a little less dense than the #1 but it is pretty frosty and smells like a mixture of yogurt and hazy weed. This harvest weighed 5 oz 20 g, 4 oz and 6 grams of decent sized nugs and 1 oz 13 grams of popcorn nugs. Giving me a total harvest of 13 oz and 17 grams, 10 oz and 20 grams of "A" nugs and 2 oz and 23 grams of popcorn nugs. In a 4 x 4. That pretty much sums up the harvest and this week! Thank you for checking out my growdiary! -Starfish

She was strechy for the first 4 weeks of flower then tapered off. Good fast veg cycle. Not my favorite to grow due to how slow she matured and final weight granted I got 40.1 grams and 8.3 grams of trim that will become cookies soon.

Sticky Broccoli Auto — Week 5 Update Stage: Early Flower (Week 1) Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms ⸻ Growth Overview Week 5 marks the official transition into flower, and all four Sticky Broccoli autos are responding strongly. The two larger plants have entered an aggressive stretch phase, showing more sativa-leaning internodal expansion than expected for an indica-dominant cultivar. The two smaller plants remain shorter and bushier, expressing a more classic indica structure. Overall vigor is excellent across the tent. Leaf color is vibrant, stems are thickening rapidly, and there are no visible deficiency or toxicity symptoms. ⸻ What’s Happening This Week (Plant Physiology Breakdown) This week represents the flower initiation + stretch overlap, one of the most metabolically demanding phases of an auto: 1. Rapid Stretch (Hormonal Shift) • Plants are responding to increased flowering hormones (gibberellins and auxins) • Internode spacing is increasing rapidly on the larger phenos • Energy is being redirected toward vertical growth while flower sites are forming This explains why the two larger plants are stretching “harder” than expected, despite indica genetics. 2. Root Demand & Water Uptake Increase • Daily feeding to runoff is necessary because: • Root mass has expanded significantly • Transpiration rates are high due to stretch • Coco dries faster under increased metabolic load The initial underwatering sign on one larger plant (2/18) aligns perfectly with this surge in demand. 3. Nutrient Uptake Shift • Nitrogen demand is still present (for stretch), but tapering • Phosphorus and potassium uptake are ramping up • Enzyme activity and carbohydrate metabolism are increasing rapidly Your slight drop from ~1100 ppm to ~1000 ppm combined with consistent runoff resets kept the root zone perfectly balanced during this sensitive transition. 4. Post-Defoliation Response • The 2/20 defoliation and lollipopping improved: • Light penetration to lower sites • Airflow through the canopy • Hormonal focus on top flower sites The strong recovery seen by 2/21 confirms the plants were ready for it. ⸻ Watering & Feeding Strategy Medium: Coco Irrigation: Auto-watering system Frequency: Near-daily Runoff Target: 10–30% depending on reset goal The alternating heavier runoff days (30%) and lighter days (5–15%) is ideal for: • Preventing salt buildup • Maintaining stable EC in the root zone • Supporting rapid stretch without overfeeding ⸻ Nutrient Mix (Per Gallon) • 0.5 ml Silicium Bloom • 8 ml Cocos A • 12 ml Cocos B • 1 ml Green Sensation • 1 ml Power Buds • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 6 ml Photosynthesis Plus (added 2/24) PPM: ~1000 pH: 5.8–5.9 ⸻ Plant Status Summary • Stretch is strong but controlled • Root zone fully reset and balanced • No signs of stress post-defoliation • Flower sites stacking rapidly • Photosynthesis support added at the perfect time This week sets the foundation for bud size, structure, and final yield. If stretch continues another 7–10 days, that’s completely normal for autos expressing hybrid vigor.

Flushed yesterday. I want to harvest friday or saturday, but I would like to get in one more flush. Well today is the day. All three are coming down on this holy day, 4/20/19. Im going to turn my customized grow tent into a dark dry room for at least two weeks (Aprox temp: 50-60*/ Aprox RH: 50%). Im also going to do my best to keep Big Lemon in one piece and do a whole plant hang dry. I will be placing the smallest budding plant (The Cheese) into a smaller tent with plenty of light and Co2. However, it is only day 56 into true flower (+ 2 weeks of transition=70 days of flower) for Big Lemon. It has a recommendation of 60-70 days, according to the breeder. I lend some credence to breeder flowering suggestions, because most of the time their relatively accurate. Its gonna be a busy day, and ill be sure to post before an after harvest pics/vids. Happy 4/20 Yall 😃

After 4 days of heavy rain, the first mold appeared... So I spent about 18 hours searching for plants and picking out mold with tweezers After last year's experience with another seed bank, I expected the plants to be very affected by mold, but I have to say that Fast Buds genetics coped very well! Mold appear mainly on blisters to which the stem of the leaf leads water, which then collects between the stem and the blister I trimmed the plants more so that the air flows better and that water does not stick to them The plants look healthy and the flowers are gaining strength Especially the dark purple phenotypes look very dense and hard. it also looks very resistant to mold Very pleasant sweet fruity scent I haven't seen my children for 3 days, it's raining extremely ... the last time I was chased out by swarms of ants in the early evening, I've never experienced this before, there were maybe a million of them and they sat on me and on the plants I'm finally going to visit them tomorrow, I expect I'll have a lot of work to do with mold and I hope the swarms of ants haven't harmed them in any way

Bienvenidos la semana #3! 😁 Día #18. Crystal Candy XL Auto ha empezado a crecer de forma espectacular! Northern Lights auto ha mostrado las primeras preflores y también están empezando a crecer muy rápidamente Royal Bluematic ha pasado por el bloqueo de nutrientes por el ph alto en el agua de riego (es la única strain que la ha manifestado). Se ha regado con agua con ph ajustado para controlar el bloqueo. Orion F1 están yendo más lento que el resto...  Día #19. Crystal Candy XL Auto y Northern Lights han empezado una carrera hacia el cielo Se decide empezar con LST en todas las variedades (ver fotos)  Es primera vez con LST, así que espero hacerlo bien! Pero supongo tendré una curva de aprendizaje o ensayo y error Día #20. Crystal Candy XL Auto se muestra muy sedienta. Sus compañeras siguen con 100 ml de agua desde hace unos 4 días, y ella necesita 250 ml de agua cada 3 días (también es la más rapida). Se ha regado Crystal Candy XL Auto con 250 ml de agua más 2 ml/l de Bio-Grow de Biobizz Es necesario ajustar el LST a diario  Día #21 Se hace un riego con 100 ml a todas las plantas (excepto Crystal Candy XL que se regó día anterior). LST es exigente en su revisión diaria pero divertido! 😃 Día #22. El tiempo se está volviendo soleado y hacemos el primer baño de sol.  Crystal Candy XL Auto está respondiendo muy bien al LST, necesita ajustes a diario Royal Bluematic tbm responde bien al LST. Las Orion F1 están yendo lentas... No sé si cogerán velocidad la próxima semana He detectado que Northern Lights tiene una pequeña plaga de minadores de las hojas (solo una hoja afectada). Para atacar la plaga y por precaucion, se hace aplicación foliar a todas las plantas de jabón potásico y aceite de neem.  Día #23. Descubro que he quemado algunas hojas tras la aplicación foliar de ayer y meter demasiado rápido bajo la lampara... Salimos al exterior! 😂 La idea es dejarlas en exterior el resto del cultivo, a no ser que vuelvan las lluvias (espero que no! 🙏) Pequeños ajustes de LST  Gracias por leerme!  😄

Girls going well and fat ;)))) The one with leaves fades away very quick, had to take couple dead fan leaves. Everything else in photos ;) During week will make some night time video. P.s. had to finish my experiment, no space and i wanted some smoke already ;)) Fact : biger plant stayed biger, but leaves covered light and all buds at the bottom are airy and took loads of time to trim, never again i will leave uncleared bottom part of the plant ... Exact weights will post in a week or two ...

So the end of 3 and entering week 4 these girls are a little sad today as been working on finishing their little grow space which hopefully they'll settle into over the next few days. I have tried too upload images but no luck keeps saying resizing no matter where I upload from 🙄 The girls are taking off and I can see the difference in growth allthough they've been unsettled past few days 🌱 Still loving the aptus range and so am I its keeping these girls healthy even the topped girl hasnt really reacted too being topped 🌱👌 I will be doing some hst/lst with the other 2 this week as neglected them slightly as having the fastbuds testers all potted up into new shoes. I will try update more images tomorow... Stay blessed 💚

All 3 apple strudle popped up and looking good and healthy. May need to add support soon to the stem if they get any taller , lowered the light to help this also. I have now moved the seedlings into a 3x3 tent with a 650w philzon LED light Just until late veg early flower then they are going back under the Spider Farmer for the Full MOT and Output lol Humidity has been easy to deal with luckily . I have been spraying around the solo cups and near the stem with plain water to keep it moist and Humid. Seem to be loving it so far 👌 Next step is wait til these are reaching edge of solo cup and transplant into bigger pots. Germination was a success 🙌 Party time now ❤️👌
