Pretty uneventful week... just keeping a level canopy and letting them fill in.

There are plenty of show off buds especially from the one plant with 4 Queen kola thickenfrosty bitch buds. They did drop a lot of weight in the dry, but all are very solid, very sticky nice buds. I will say that I was away for 9 days and my goddam dehumidifier snorkel fell off and the plants went on a pogo ride of humidity for fuck sakes. leading to one plant having a herm - just a few I noticed at the base. Everything else looked amazing!!! Classic Wedding Cake buds fresh out the Box! & now into MY curing jars! Super excited as this is one of my favorite strains -- r

8/5-After letting the bottom branches grow for another 4 days they were showing plenty of amber and had firmed up enough to harvest. Did a rough trim and hung the branches in Cannatrol Cool Cure to dry. 8/11-Overall the buds were a lot smaller than previous Mephisto grows. I'm going to let them cure for 2-3 weeks and then do a real taste test.

24 hrs of darkness begins. amber trichomes are hard to see under certain lights and through glasses, i dumped the glasses and moved each one to a different room and sure as shit "amber trichomes!". I just realized a jewelers lupe with a light works better without looking through reading glasses. 3 yrs of crap harvests and it aint over yet but if i get these dried at 60rh @ 70 deg F for 6-10 days APPPROX! CAREFUL FOR MOULD, and i got the 32 oz jars, belvidas and humidity guages for cure. as long as i can do that right, man things are really looking good. PRINCETON CAN USE A GUY LIKE JOEL! We'll see. I am starting another diary for the 2 gorilla glues that are growing really slow. I was going to dump them but i kept putting it off and slowly the buds started stacking up. I would love to know if this is common with all seed vendors and not just mine and why its happening like this. More important, I GREW BIG POTENT BUDS BY MYSELF!!!!!!! PRETTY HAPPY ABOUT THAT. HOURS AND HOURS OF VIDEO LESSONS, GROW DIARY QUESTIONS AND LOOKING AT OTHER PEOPLES GROWS, CONDITIONS PRODUCTS, EQUIPMENT AND RESULTS. FOR ME, GROWING WEED INDOORS IS A BIG FREAKING JOB AND I REALLY LOVE DOING IT FOR SOME REASON. IM HOOKED.

Started out great as a seedling. On week 3 things I used cheap clips that jacked things up and after a certain amount of time passed I decided to transplant it to Fox Farms Strawberry fields soil where it quickly went into flower shortly after. I chopped 77 days after planting the seed. It produced 47 grams dry of amazing flower. The smell is incredibly pungent -sweet and citrus scent. The high is great as well. After drying for 8 days they were then thrown into a grove bag for an infinite cure until consumed.

The Extrakush, the odd one out. What started out as a save because my third-party Barneys Farm seeds didn't germinate, this diary was supposed to be about their Runtz, but when dealers sell old seeds and replace those old with some even older seeds Expert seeds, fool me thrice.... So this was a shot in the dark, these were the only seeds I had available at the time, bought as a try out for the garden. A species designed for NW European climate. And she had, due to germination disasters, two weeks less of growing and she had a brother in the same pot, only removed in flowering. Still she filled out the entire tent and some space of her failing neighbour: the Gorilla. What a gem this strain is, look at those buds, look at her outperforming expensive seeds at a dollar a seed. Yes we still have to see some trichomes, yes she is mostly still hairy and not filled out yet but she is racing there. Let's hope on some quality smoke from this lady, for now, consider weedseeds.site as a place for quality strains. Merry Christmas everyone from Sunshine and me, check the video for a more personal seasons greeting. Special thanks to Mars Hydro, without whom we couldn't have this grow! Thanks @MarsHydroLED

Tomorrow is the official first week since flip. They are stretching and greening up nicely!! Noticed a little light burn on some tips when I dropped to 18". Gonna see how it progresses. Nutrient wise they are jammin. No issues here. The only problem might be I get overgrown haha! Farmer problems 🤣 Day 12 of flowering. They continue to improve. I believe they are now dug into their new soil and I should have very little trouble keeping them fed. They are really pushing the stretch, especially the BMX!!! It caught up to the sherbs in the last couple days and the bud site structure is TIGHT!!!! The BMX is about to show me what she can do. That Sherbs though, I am so excited about her. Watered all today and they were THIRSTY! took 1 and 1/2 gallons of water to saturate the 7 gallon pots. SCROG LIFE!!! lol

This was a pretty good week. The buds of FBT2203 are looking great and are taking on some nice colors. It seems a little early for the fade so I made sure that this week I gave a little more nitrogen and Bloom nutes to help push these plants through another 3 or 4 weeks. Pictures are day 63 from seed and ending near the end of week 5.

Big resinous and compact buds, strong smell of the tent its elongated stems are the buds on top getting fatter every week I hope to be surprised with this girl her looks are beautiful great coloring and leaves to go where I need to let her gain more weight and the amber colors are necessary in trichomes, feeding well and requiring more water than the others, even without pure water 😚

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/2- Eight weeks since breaking ground and the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod is really starting to get going now despite our extremely hot and humid weather. The weather continues to be hot and humid and the daily watering continues. 7/4- 🎉HAPPY 4th of JULY!🎉 The FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photo has taken the heat like a champ and is transforming into a very LARGE and beautiful lady! She's over 5 feet tall now and is stretching! She has maintained excellent vigor, color and has shown great resistance to pests and other stressors! 7/6- Yesterday we had a thunderstorm pass through early in the day, which provided about an inch of rain in a short time. I went ahead and watered in the afternoon, but only gave the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod approx. 3g of water from the well, via garden hose.🌱🚿. 7/8- The daily watering continues, as does our blistering hot🔥weather. All is well with the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod and today, after watering her with 5g of well water, I gave her a good going over, looking at all the leaves topside and underneath and removing any leaves that were either yellowing or had other issues. Well folks, Week Eight is a wrap and the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod from FastBuds is going strong! See ya next week! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

they are all growing great and starting to get taller. a very robust plant and very easy to grow and maintain. they are getiing 1/2 the recommeneded dose of nutrients 3 times a week

This week I continued the same regiment as the last week only this week I upped their water intake slightly. I went from 250mL to 500mL at a time daily. Then I had to slightly defoliate due to the main stem fan leaves totally blocking all growth from the plant all the way around but once I defoliated the l main stems fan leaves the lower section of the plant was able to retrieve light and air circulation. You can tell that it was desperately needed and much needed! Now the plant will grow better! All and all this week went quickly and I'm happy with the results?

Just starting to poke out their first divided leaves. Put some mushroom mulch around the base of the stem to prevent the cover crop from moving in too close and blocking out light to the tiny seedling. It's been raining here today and it looks like it gonna continue but our cold frame allows us to control how much water gets on the seedlings (which is nice). Gave them their first compost tea consisting of green and brown vegetative matter, worm castings, some mushroom compost, and General Hydroponics subcultures M and B. Used the leftover vegetative material as mulch. Trimmed cover crop again.

Bien

🌱: started this week with intensive LST and little Defoliation, Day 46 Lollipopping 💧 : 8l, 10l SIP 💡 : Dli: 45 mol/m²/d, 🤔: The plant has a rectangular area in the middle where it is not growing as quickly. The difference is almost 10cm. I suspect the lamp. Could it be that the centrally installed UV LEDs are triggering it? I noticed this in previous grows. There is actually less light outside, which can lead to slower growth or even stretching, right? I taped up the LEDs.

She was a little dried out before this update I gotta admit. So shes a little upset but otherwise looking really good. Shes drinking a lot right now! Check back next week for more

- she was harvested this morning on day 75, all pics are right before/during/after harvest - flushed for 12day, there was a slight fade but she was still pretty green, didn't want to wait any longer though - now drying in my cardboard box, harvest report will be up in 10 to 14 days as usual when everything is nice and dry - added 2 video's of her frosty ass haha

🏆 Eternity Grow Cup 2025 Plagron and Zamnesia 🏆 Runtz by Zamnesia Seeds Our girl is growing strong and healthy! 🌱 She's happily absorbing Plagron nutrients, and it's really showing in her progress. Everything is going according to plan, and we’re thrilled with the results. On February 6th, we will switch the light cycle to 12/12 to start the flowering phase. That will mark exactly one month since we placed the seed in a paper towel for germination. 🌼 We can't wait to see her bloom! 🌿 #GrowDiaries #EternityGrowCup2025 #ZamnesiaSeeds #Plagron #Runtz #FloweringStage.
