Well I had to harvest some buds from one plant of Blue Zushi as I got some bud rot I found some a wk ago and cut it away and an inch around it ,but it came back in one more cola I saved 50% of 3 colas I had to remove , I harvested the other Zushi too ,I ll show photos soon ,they are really frost after 30 hrs of darkness, I didn't want to risk any longer incase there was any mould from the bud rot still present in the plant/s ,well they smell really dank blueberry and cheese I smell so far ,with a fruity undertone. I will keep you updated on harvest and smoke

Hi all . Here we go again on some Fast buds auto genetics from one of the markets go to for autos. Having been a long term grower of fast buds and some of their tester fast flowering photoperiods too , I expect great things .lol My choices of strain came from hours of deliberating and looking through their extensive auto range. so tempting to hit the "classic" series and go with what I know but being ever curious , that was soon surpassed by some new kids on the block and here we have it. Their rise to the surface was only 3 days total for husks off and opening coty leaves. Now a week on from seeding , they are ready to get busy. They all look as they should and are at present in subdued lighting to get them rooted first. I will be moving them under their own light soon but want them to get comfortable in the soil mix first too. So day 1 is under way and we are in for some beautiful buds no doubt. Thank you Heather @Fastbuds . lets get this going now.

week 4.. amazing blooming. The rain has stopped. The Dry season has come! Maybe one or two rain storm, but nothing to wory...

End of Week 13 (6 week of flower) Cruise control on! Trying to make sure the environment is 100% in check, and I made a very light compost tea with some molasses and worm castings and a little bit of bone meal just to give them a calcium boost and some extra sugars so they can flourish into their final couple of weeks of flower. I have been keeping a cooler average temperature - and also keeping the relative humidity lower. Pest Report: None

Start flowering stage. 30/04 : Defoliation Made EC1.18 (but maybe I should raise it ?? ) PH 5.5 raising 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Lesson Learned: CHECK THE METERS EVERY DAY ON RO WATER AND VERIFY EC=9,5 AND PH=6,7 IF IS NOT TEST YOUR METERS 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 asked advice to @YYCannabis and the community 😀 01/05: EC1.28 PH 5.9

Loving it

It was really fu doing this grow, it’s my very first grow and it seemed to turn out great. Thanks for all the feedback everyone.

Cash Express – Pheno A | Week 4 Full Steam Ahead Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure, where twelve cultivars are being documented individually from seed to harvest under a strict 12/12-from-seed schedule. Every phenotype follows its own diary, allowing each plant to reveal its unique personality while growing under exactly the same environment and feeding program. Another week has passed, and the room continues to transform at an incredible pace. What started as twelve tiny seedlings is rapidly becoming a forest filled with individual characters, each responding differently despite sharing identical conditions. That’s one of my favourite parts of this project—watching genetics tell their own stories. This week also reminded me that Mother Nature has a funny sense of humour. The environmental controller proudly displayed 33.3°C alongside 63% humidity. Apparently the grow room has decided that three is the lucky number this week. Despite the higher temperatures, the elevated humidity helped keep the plants comfortable, and growth across the room never missed a beat. Every day the canopy became denser, greener, and noticeably more alive. ⸻ Week 4 Environment 🌡️ Temperature: 33.3°C 💧 Relative Humidity: 63% 💡 PPFD: 700–800 µmol/m²/s 🌱 Medium: Plagron Lightmix ? Growing Method: 12/12 From Seed One interesting change this week wasn’t caused by the lights—it was caused by the plants themselves. Some phenotypes have entered a much stronger vertical growth phase, naturally moving closer to the fixtures. Those taller individuals are now receiving around 800 PPFD, while shorter plants remain closer to 700 PPFD. The light hasn’t changed. The plants have. Watching each phenotype respond differently under identical conditions continues to be one of the most fascinating parts of this entire project. ⸻ Feeding Strategy The nutrition program has continued to evolve alongside the increasing demands of the garden. During the establishment phase, irrigation remained around pH 5.8, creating ideal conditions for vigorous root development. As those root systems expanded throughout the containers, the nutrient solution gradually shifted toward pH 6.1, allowing access to a broader spectrum of available nutrients within the substrate. At the same time, nutrient concentration was increased progressively throughout the week, finishing around EC 1.8. Nothing dramatic. No aggressive jumps. Simply allowing the plants to dictate the pace rather than forcing one. Healthy roots create healthy plants, and the steady growth throughout the room suggests they’re very happy with the direction we’re taking. ⸻ Cash Express – Pheno A If this lady had a motto, it would probably be: “Catch me if you can.” From the beginning she’s shown an incredible desire to grow, and this week that enthusiasm became even more obvious. While several of the other phenotypes are still building compact structures, Pheno A has decided she’s in a hurry. She’s stretching confidently toward the light while simultaneously producing an impressive amount of lateral growth, creating a plant that feels both elegant and powerful. What has impressed me most isn’t simply her height. It’s how well she’s responding to every bit of training. Throughout the week I’ve continued gently tucking leaves and applying light stress training wherever needed to open the canopy. Rather than slowing down, she seems to reward every adjustment by pushing even more vigorous side branches toward the light. It’s exactly the kind of response every grower hopes for. Each newly exposed branch immediately begins reaching upward, gradually transforming the plant into a much more balanced structure with multiple future flowering sites. The internodal spacing remains very attractive—open enough to allow airflow and light penetration, yet close enough to promise dense flower development later on. Her main stem has thickened noticeably over the past week, giving her a sturdy backbone that’s clearly preparing for the stretch that’s still to come. The foliage is lush, healthy, and beautifully coloured, while the fresh lime-green growth emerging at every tip is a constant reminder of just how actively she’s developing. Looking at her now, it’s easy to understand why this cultivar carries the name Cash Express. She certainly isn’t wasting any time. Every day she seems determined to be just a little taller, a little fuller, and a little stronger than she was the day before. ⸻ Looking Ahead Week 5 should become even more exciting. With flowering now beginning to establish itself, I’m expecting the stretch to continue while the first real flower formation starts becoming visible throughout the canopy. Over the coming days I’ll be watching closely for: • Continued vertical stretch. • Development of the trained side branches. • Early flower site formation. • Structural balance after continued LST. • How she compares to her sister phenotype as flowering progresses. If this week’s momentum is anything to judge by, she’s only just getting started. ⸻ Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following this 8×8 Adventure and joining me each week as these incredible genetics continue their journey. Thank you to the amazing GrowDiaries community for providing a place where growers from all around the world can learn from one another, share experiences, and celebrate this incredible hobby together. A special thank you to Plagron for supplying the nutrition and cultivation support behind this entire project. Thank you to Zamnesia for the outstanding genetics, equipment, and the opportunity to document every phenotype from seed to harvest. And finally, thank you to everyone who stops by, leaves a comment, shares advice, or simply enjoys watching these plants develop into their own unique personalities. Every phenotype follows the same path. None of them walk it the same way. Growers Love, and I’ll see you all next week. 🌱💚

Harvest day! 70% orange pistils! Perfect for harvesting! Thanks for watching

Flower day 17 - All the ladies are looking great, starting to see a lot of bud sights & the smell is definitely getting stronger everyday I open the tent! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🌱✌️🏼 Flower day 19- Got a bigger dehumidifier because I was having problems on days I would water the humidity would go through the roof at night so to prevent mold I bought a bigger dehumidifier but now it is throwing off so much heat the tent is pushing 90 degrees F at some points throughout the day so I’m not exactly sure how to fix the issue! Will definitely not be running so many plants in the next run for the 5x5! Hopefully things get better!😅😅

it was so easy to grow, love this plant it's glorious and the taste... no comments, its earthy and maybe some diesel aroma... it was happy 1st grow of the ILGM's Gorilla Glue Auto!!! strongly recommended for beginners.

These girls are identical besides height. #8 is 23 inches #9 is 20.5 inches I could not be happier with there growth. I need 24 more inches before June 15 ( today is May 18 ). This could work. I do not have an exact location yet. But Im working on that, all the time. Too many variables in my mind. #1 - Sun pattern # 2 - alien light sources (neibors) # 3 - line of sight # 4 - don't want to kill the lawn (who cares) So it's getting down to the wire. I tell myself "Dont panic!!I You will figure it out". I need to smoke a bowl. Where is the Crinkle. Lol

Four week of vegetation and the canopy is filling up nicely. Lost the branch I tied back unfortunately. I need to make cleaner cuts in the future.

Well, it looks as if one of the 3 plants is a male. I live in denial for one more day and then I toss it. Not sure which plant it is, as I painted over the strain names when I painted the cups grey. Smooth. So I will find out soon. Otherwise, good weather and some good growth. Roots are balled up at the bottom of the dutch bucket reservoir, Im sure, because I let the drip go dry for a day or two and the plants were droopin (coco)

here is in winter with cloudy days ... if she is like that it is my fault for not spending enough time on her ... she grew up in a 1 liter pot ... and one of my dogs ate all its leaves ... we will say that of a flavor and good effect .

Day 53: I have a feeling that a bigger pot is necessary for FIMmed plants. Defoliated Lemon a little bit (used her leaves for a morning shake 😁). Some of her leaves are turning lime green, not sure what that's about. Overall excited about their day to day growth from now. Day 55: Followed some advice and tried to add some Cal in the form of chamomile tea. Ended up trimming the already deficient leaves will see what happens later on. Could also be light burn from the plants getting taller. Lemon Pie is showing the purple phenotype which I love!

Had another nice week. The fastbuds have started to flower already!! One is real squatty and the other one is look real nice. The deep Purple is taking off. Been pinning it down to train the big one and is looking awesome. This strain really loves the super soil. Having a blast so far 👍
