Introduced the Dutch pro explode to fatten up the buds

Week 8 Flower (Day 85-91 | Flower Day 50-56) Day 85 - Feb 19 (Flower Day 50) 00:10 pre top-off: pH 5.95 / EC 1.674 Post top-off: pH 5.88 / EC 1.658 Noticed again that the real bulking seems to be happening under the very top tips. Pistils lower down are still white. This matters more than the “top of the tops” look. Day 86 - Feb 20 (Flower Day 51) 00:10 pre top-off: pH 5.92 / EC 1.804 15 min post top-off: pH 5.95 / EC 1.720 EC had crept up. Top-off brought it back down. Plant posture looks good (praying, not tacoing). Still feels like she’s in “steady stacking” mode. Day 87 - Feb 21 (Flower Day 52) Reservoir change at 01:00 New res: pH 5.78 / EC 1.752 Fed ½ dose of what Advanced Nutrients recommended. Reset felt worth it because I couldn’t find any res changes after Feb 6 in my notes, and I didn’t want to gamble this late in flower. Day 88 - Feb 22 (Flower Day 53) 00:10 pre top-off: pH 6.0 / EC 1.780 ~1 L consumed Post top-off: pH 6.0 / EC 1.894 (first reading likely off - meter acting a bit wonky again) PPFD noted around 790. Also: smell is getting more funky (in the good way). And importantly: she’s not “scarred” anymore - almost all previously damaged leaves have been trimmed away by now. Day 89 - Feb 23 (Flower Day 54) 00:10 pre top-off: pH 5.0 / EC 1.852 15 min post top-off: pH 5.58 / EC 1.724 pH came in low and got corrected with the top-off. Plant looks fine. No sign of new damage spreading. The trend stays: tops look “older,” but the mid/lower stacking is active. Day 90 - Feb 24 (Flower Day 55) 00:10 pre top-off: pH 5.56 / EC 1.874 ~1 L consumed 15 min post top-off: pH 5.67 / EC 1.724 Leaves praying. No taco. Everything feels stable and predictable right now - exactly what I want after the January chaos. Day 91 - Feb 25 (Flower Day 56) 00:10 pre top-off: pH 5.73 / EC 1.872 15 min post top-off: pH 5.80 / EC 1.786 Still holding that same EC band after top-offs. Some tip burn / slight leaf edge crisping visible on a few leaves, but nothing that’s escalating fast. Focus remains on bulking and resin rather than chasing white pistils on the very top tips. Thricomes look mostly clear with a few cloudy and no amber. Week 8 Notes / Takeaways Res change happened Feb 21 @ 01:00 (pH 5.78 / EC 1.752, ½ AN dose). EC after top-offs mostly sits ~1.7-1.8, which is consistent given ~800 EC tap water baseline. Smell turning stronger + funkier in a good way. Canopy damage from the old incident is largely a non-factor now - most of those leaves are gone. The “action” is in the mid/lower stacking and healthy sugar leaf resin production. I'm hoping for another 3 weeks of flower before harvest.

These blueberry muffin are turning out better then my first run. Apparently you can flower in small 1 gallon pots with organic inputs

🌸 Week 1 – Flowering Phase Begins After a solid preflower prep, I’ve officially flipped the grow to flowering! I’m now running 3 phenotypes in bloom: 🔹 #36 🔹 #38 🔹 #45 Pheno #40 has been isolated due to potential signs of hermaphroditism — nothing confirmed yet, so I’ll keep a close eye on it over the next couple of weeks before making a final decision. Structurally, things are getting interesting: 🔸 Two phenos are showing a tall, US-style stretch, with wider internodal spacing — just like what I’ve seen in modern cultivars I’ve grown in the past. 🔸 The other two are more old-school in structure, shorter and stockier, with tighter node spacing. 🌱 All 4 phenos have been successfully backed up in a DWC cloner for preservation — the hunt continues! Really excited to see how these girls develop over the next few weeks 🙌 Let’s bring out those peachy gassy terps !

Plant 1: 2.40 Oz dry (chopped day 84) Plant 2: 4.85 Oz dry (chopped day 88) Happy with them so far. Will update post cure and smoke report.

Everything is going well for this early growth, looking forward to repotting in auto Pot and trying to have a beautiful pink phenotype!

This is it. Im gonna tell you soon how much I’ve harvested.

🌱 Day 57 - Start of the Second-to-Last Flowering Week 🌱 Hello, Grow Friends! Today marks the start of the second-to-last flowering week—Week 9 overall, and Week 5 of flowering. 🌿 I’m getting more and more excited as my first grow nears its end. As I approach harvest, I’ve decided, based on my research, to stop feeding nutrients and stick to just pH-adjusted water for the final two weeks. 💧⚖️ Watering Routine: I’ll keep the same watering schedule—1 liter every two days, which is about 10% of the pot volume. 🌱💧 This should be enough to flush out the remaining nutrients, ensuring a clean finish for the plant. Temperature & Humidity: The temperature remains stable between 19-23°C, which I believe is ideal for this stage of the grow. 🌡️🍂 No more high temperatures to worry about! The humidity is fluctuating between 45-58%, and I’m keeping a close eye on it to stay below 60%. 💧🔍 Everything seems on track for now. 🌿 Plant Health & Growth: The plant still looks very healthy overall. 🌱💪 However, I’ve noticed that in the past three days, there haven’t been any visible changes in the size of the buds. 🤔 It could just be that I’m not seeing the growth clearly, but the only noticeable change is the daily opening of new flower calyxes. 🌸 Harvest Preparation: I’m already getting my equipment ready for drying after harvest. 🛠️ Once it’s time to cut, I’ll be hanging the plant to dry for the first 10 days. 🌿✂️ I want to make sure everything is set for a smooth drying process. Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, daily photos of the plant will be posted! 📸🌱

10 weeks total for the first phenos and a bit more than 11 for the last one! I could have easily gotten double the projected yield on these had I not neglected them but whatever I pulled is rock hard, dusted in sugar and smells absolutely stupendous! You did it again FastBuds!

Sanlight evo at 100% Day 71: Looks really good 👍 a couple of days now and then darkness 🤙 giving No water now... Day 73: well, that's IT🤗 The Journey Has come to an end.... 😢 Today I turned off the lights, sprayed purolyt. She will get 48 hours of darkness and then cut and hung..

This was my first grow that I'm really happy about. I harvested more than the last run with 2 plants only with this plant. But we always can do better. Keep growing and learning 🙏🏻💜💚🕉️

Hey guys it’s week three and I’m feeling great. I ran into a few issues: 1. Unexpected rise in humidity. Don’t really know why it spiked but I purchased a dehumidifier to combat the issue. 2. White powdery Mold on the side of my grow fabric pots. I believe this was a byproduct of my humidity issue. I heavy inspected each plant and from the surface everything appears to be ok. I whipped away the mold and spray it down with a solution I made from mouth wash and water prior to the girls going to sleep. I also added another fan to add more circulation. 3. I took a few photos of some of my leaves there looks to be some discoloration hard to tell what it is due to me being color blind, I believe this is due to nutrition burn. All please take a look and tell me what you think it is, is it one problem or multiple? Other than that I started LST, great start so far I believe!
