Week 12: Partial Harvest & Bruce's Final Stand Update: 10.08.2025 | Day 87 Big updates as predicted: I chopped two girls due to bad weather. Fear of big losses was bigger than my need to get to the max. Harvested Forbidden Runtz and Green Crack as they were almost fully ripe. 20% amber and 80% milky trichomes have to be good enough. Weather conditions were far from good - but both girls fought through it like Rocky. Great resilient genetics FastBuds. Hats off! Now let's come to our last survivor - Bruce Banner: Although trichomes are mostly cloudy with only scattered amber trichomes, there are still a lot of white pistils left in the budsites. She's still in bloom mode but resin isn't there like with my other two girls. Next days are forecasted with extremely hot weather (35°C again!) - hope this gives her the last kick. Next steps: - Keep her on the edge to use up all internal resources - Check for mold daily - Find the perfect chop moment I think the next update on this girl will be the harvest report, my friends. It was a pleasure to grow these three girls and I enjoyed the minimum maintenance and resources approach in comparison to last year's coco daily feeding hustle. The plants know themselves best what they need and it's only on me to read my plants and react only if necessary. Thanks to all of ya for joining me on this amazing journey 😍 And last but not least thanks FastBuds for creating such amazing strains and genetics. Smoking_Joe_Frazier

17.04. Day 36 Grow Diary Entry – Day 36 (Flower Day 16) Strain: Sour Frootz by Karma Genetics Plants: 4 clones Training: HST + SCROG Today is Flowering Day 16, and the Sour Frootz ladies are officially deep into the early-to-mid bloom stage. Bud sites are now well-defined, and the pistils are stacking up nicely. The stretch phase has slowed down slightly, giving a good window for structural management. To keep the canopy even and under control, I applied high-stress training (HST) by bending and tucking the taller tops through the SCROG net. I also reduced overall plant height by about 25 cm, evening out the top layer across all four plants. This should help maximize light penetration and bud development across the entire canopy. The plants handled the stress well—no signs of wilting or shock so far. With this structure locked in, the SCROG net is now fully supporting the horizontal spread, allowing more light to reach secondary bud sites. The aroma is intensifying slightly, a sweet, fruity tang starting to build up when brushing against the leaves. Everything is on track. From here on, the focus shifts to flower bulking, maintaining stable environmental conditions, and avoiding excess humidity as the flowers start to pack on mass. ******************************************* 6L RO Water // ph 6,4 // 0,6ml Aptus Regulator // 12ml BioBizz CalMag // 6g Greenhouse Feeding BioEnhancer // BioBizz ph- *******************************************

This week the strech reached almost 70cm , and the ladies almost grew into the growlight one day so i moved it higher up to stay at a distance if 30cm. i alo defoliated more this time and started strecheing some branches out so everything gets enought light down. they seem to really like the feeding schedule too. The werent any nutrient issues anymore. trhichome production also started and is already about to cover the surrounding keafes. they are going to be pretty frostyy🍀❄️❄️

After I changed the water (flushing, so to speak) She quickly started pulling the rest out of her leaves. Since I wanted to use the whole plant, I harvested it early, as many of the leaves were already starting to crisp up.That was the sign for me: now the leaves are rubbish. She also had two beginnings of pollen sacs And wanted to pollinate itself to ensure its offspring, like cannabis likes to do in nature when it is allowed to flower. I really enjoyed the grow, it was my first cup that I took part in. Thank you all for your attention, for looking at my diary and for following the growth a bit. Every participant is a winner and I wish everyone good luck and success for the cup 💪

D35- PX, the lady double in height this week with lot of stretching. The fimming gave me 3 tops, hopefully they will stretch still to get nice height and good spacing from bud to bud. I like how she is growing and Im happy with that I didnt break her like the first I grew. The budsites are multiplicating and the lady seems to be healthy. D35 AHO- The lady is outside to give her some natural light, I will let her grow outside for the entire grow from now. She seems to love the sun, She was at 13,5' before I bend the main to let some chance to the side branches to get some height. She is growing nicely too and budlets forming everywhere. From now I think the output will be slighty lower thn the Px cuz she is smaller, but lets hope Im wrong and they will do great both of them. If you see something wrong on pics, please tell me, im here to learn

Hi growers 👌🏻🍁 This week I’ve had a few slight more issues this run hasn’t been the best so far. But I’m hoping if I can just up my feed as each watering I’m feeding the ppm are only at 450ppm 1ml grow 3ml bloom 2ml top max 4ml heaven 4ml actavira In a 5litre bottle - every 3 days I’ve had a few herm on me - which has been a bit of a disappointing, it just tells me my rooms not dialled in at all. Few more issues to fix next run. All the pink runts autos that finished flowering dried for 1 half weeks then went into canna butter. If anyone can give me a message or comment of anything I can do to try fix these girls I would appreciate it ✌️🏻🍁

I wish I had better lights. These are cheap ts600 and par600 The last week i did major pruning of lower shaded popcorn buds, skinny stringy branches. Tied outter buds towards more lighting and have cut water and nutrients back. Ive found that if you let a plant get on the drier side. That it'll give you more frost, better flavor, and larger colas. This method comes from fine wine makers who force not so optimal conditions onto their vines. This in turn causes the plant to work harder and focused more on bud than growing new fan leaves. Cannabis plants biggest goal is to get a cola in to the air as high as it can in hopes to get a pollinating creatures attention. If you manipulate this you can force the plant to make better buds. Because theres a chance the plant senses danger because of the watering routine changing

Divine Seeds Auto V.2 Contest Auto Black Opium W4V4 6/29-7/5 6/29 2 liters water ph 6.1, ppm 242, 69.5F Wetting the outer rim of the pot. 7/2 2 liters ph 6.44, ppm 222 68.5F Wetting the outer rim of the pot. I’m giving ph water for this grow unless deficiencies are noted since Supersoil is in my base mix and will be adding Green Sensation during flower. She is 3.5 inches tall and very bushy. From the pics you can see she fills up the top of her 3 gal pot with her big indica leaves. As aways, thank you all for stopping by, for the likes and most of all growers’ love and support. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

☀️ // Day 8 🌱 First week is over and it was a kinda good one. We see that she made big progress and looks just how she is supposed to with 7 days on the clock. The first three-fingered leafs are coming. But let me tell you, she was soooo mad about the transplantation on day 3 from the EazyPlug to the solo cup! 💀The rooting in the EazyPlug was good, I used a normal red cup like in my last grow just to not directly plant her into the 19L (5gal) end pot. But she instantly responded with decoloring of the leafs from the tips, which fortunately got better after 2 days. Now she is completely stable again with a lush green color. She got some scars from it tho, as you can see on her leafs. It was just a shock I guess, so I am not particularly looking forward to her repotting into the final pot. I mixed all the 20L of soil at once, just to have the end pot already prepared. I used the normal BioBizz Light Mix and spiced it up with 50g/10L Startrex, 50g/10L Silicium Flash and 1 tablespoon of Mycotrex for the transplantation hole. I didn't use an organic fertilizer tablet for the solo cup since it's not really needed and also didn't use Bactrex and Orgatrex yet. That I'll do in the end pot because the solo cup should have plenty of nutrients for the first 2 weeks. I watered the solo cup till saturation with tap water, root juice and epsom salt because of the bad CalMag-ratio of my local water. The soil is still moist, so I think that watering to saturation is even in a small cup like this not needed in the beginning. 💦 Watering: 0,2 L with pH = 6.2 💊 Fertilizer: Startrex, Silicium Flash, Mycotrex, Root Juice, Epsom salt 💡 Light: 200 PPFD at 30%

Just added Mephisto 3 sour crinkles and 2 double grapes to the equation. It was meant to be 4 sour crinkles but one seed still ent popped so I’m hoping it will! On to the grow where I haven’t trained any plants it’s a fight for space but I’m happy with most of the plants few fast buds wedding still ent properly flowered yet week 7 on but am happy with a couple glues and the 3 runtz the runtz is frosty! The grape Walkers are starting to swell and fill out big time I am happy so far with it all had a couple burns and defincys through the 7 weeks so far but got over them! The grape walkers are the big budded plants then the frosty ones at the back are runtz then the rest are glues! Started defoliating plants

Now we're growin'! Buds popping out everywhere, only two Viper Cookies still apparently in veg. The Lamb's in the 10 gal is really spreading her wings, I've had to adjust the pots a little to compensate for the overcrowding (a problem which I am happy to have). Chemdog is really budding strong, I like what I'm seeing but I hope they plump up. The smaller plants are making up for their size with an abundance of pretty little future nugs. Even the two Lemon OG's (not listed here, ran outta room for strains) are looking good and they were kinda a last minute addition. Had some bug issues--just minor though. Worse damage than that was done by me and my slightly over-zealous LST. The foliage is lookin good, rich and green. I've had to pull a good deal of yellow leaves lately, but I'm pretty sure they've just been used up and aged out. Lots of humid weather now, of course. No problems yet, though. As a preventative measure I've defoliated a little heavier than before, making sure every part of the plant can breathe. I use the morning dew as a guide-- with my location the wind almost always blows and by about 8 am I can see any patches of growth that might be too thick because they still have a lot of dew. So far this method has worked, and I don't see any major slow downs in growth from the haircuts. Been watching a lot of DGC and thinking Recharge might be useful, but I'm pretty stuck with what I got this year (too damn rooted to do much with the soil any more). Awesome place for info though-- the more I learn the more I want to learn. 8/22 -- Bud worms. Bastards. Heavy neem spraying will hopefully bring it under control. Been watching these girls constantly (lot of time on my hands at the right time of year), and the buggers sure made headway fast. Been finding a few, like one or two, each day. Today I checked and found over a dozen on one plant. I neemed the bulk of the plants, leaving two of the smaller ones un-sprayed. I couldn't spray the very tops of the bigger plants very well because they're topping 7 - 8 feet and too close together to fit the ladder (planning-- live and learn). I moved the smaller unsprayed plants to the side of the garden and I'm hoping that if they're really hell bent on infesting something they'll take the bait and at least leave the bigger girls alone. Meanwhile, remnants of the hurricane are headed this way keeping shit really really moist all around. So far so good for bud rot still, but it's prime time. 8/23-- Hmmm. What could tip a 5 gal bag, saturated, supported with lines, with a 7 1/2 ft flowering female in it, without breaking or even bending the plant? I want to believe it's not a human pest......but thinking my pest tried to grab her and couldn't get it past the lines. I'm all ears if anyone has other ideas (wind- no. deer- no.) So assuming I have an asshole in the neighborhood, it's back to old school. I really liked the idea of not worrying about them so much, I thought poeple might be better these days, but I guess not. Time for stakeouts and hidden cams. 8/25-- Had to spray BT for the damn caterpillars. Not a lot of damage so far, but keeping an eye on it. Fortunately the buds are still tiny so easy to spot damage. I'm really pleased with the number of bud sites in general, especially on the Lamb's Bread. I'll have to climb the ladder and see if I can get some good photos next week. No sign of my human infestation. Been watching close and checking cams and nothing. The flash went off a few times, but I was out in less than a minute and saw nothing, and nothing in the photos it took either. Ganja ghosts???
