starting into the final weeks!

I got a new light for these ladies cause it was clear my other lights weren’t doing justice. I went with an affordable option which was a Lumii black 600w HPS light. It made the temp reach 44 degrees luckily I checked on my plant about an hour later and they were looking really sad but they were okay once I moved my tent closer to the window. My temps went down to 33 degrees Celsius which is still to hot PLEASE tell me how I can get This down guys 😭😭😭😭!!! Anyway they were okay before that growing beautifully and very healthy before I got the new light. I can definitely see the different in intensities

Okay growmies here we are at the end of our PURPLE LEMONADE by FAST BUDS. It was such a pleasure to grow, i learned so so so much this run that will help me through the rest of my adventures. The beginning was tough as i am new i over watered and did not ph the water and what i mistake. But its okay i learned. She bounced back like nothing and produced these HUGE, THICK, DENSE BUDS!i remember the panic i had week 2-3 and wanted to scrap all of this and start over.... thank the weed gods i didnt because look at this masterpiece. I always said in the passed weeks comments i hope my ugly duckling becomes a beautiful queen. And here she is. She was SOOO HUNGRY AND THIRSTY! Over 5L a day guys..... and not a SINGLE drop would come out of the bottom.... over a all a pleasure and amazing grow. I will for sure grow again and again. I would love to Try this out door or in a 10L pot can probably get this beast to be the size of a 5x5 easily! She responded so well to LST and topping... slowed it down but it was so worth it guys lmao.... like honestly OVER HALF A POUND!!!!!! GROWMIES! I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU ALL SO SO MUCH! Thank you for all the continued support and likes and comments and help. Id be no where with this with out all of you. And thank you to the FAST BUDS team and to you heather! Grow diaries thank you for the plat form. I love you guys. All of you. All my sponsors. Thank you. Until Next time growmies! Stay positive, stay safe, stay high.

Greetings fellow growers 🖖 and welcome to my first grow ever. This adventure actually started several months ago when I decided to stop buying flower from dispensaries and just grow my own bud. How hard can it be!? This is actually my second seed of this strain. The first bean sadly died due to over watering (sorry girl, RIP). I was literally watering the cube to the point where water was dripping from the bottom, then heavily sprayed the humidity dome and tray with the vents completely closed. Everyday. Multiple times. I never let the dome or try dry out. So after about 8 days of not sprouting, there was a funky smell of rot. So that was that. Later I learned that rockwool retains a lot of water and can easily drown seeds. So a wet/dry cycle is best for rockwool germination. So even after hours of researching and digging through forums and tutorial videos, I was still under prepared for this journey. Did not consider how delicate the germination phase is. Oh well. Lesson learned. Reset and try again! I hope everyone is safe and stoned during this corona crisis. Just like everyone else in the world, I want this pandemic to be over with. But in the meantime, let's grow some weed! 🖖 [START OF WEEK 01] Day 01 - Monday - 08/03/20 - Total Days: 001 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Light Schedule: 24Hrs/0 --- Soaked cube in 5.5 PH water for 10 min. Did not shake water out. --- NO NUTES! Only PH'd down to control the PH levels. --- Did not use the default hole (way too deep). --- Flipped cube upside down and made a shallow hole for the seed (less than 0.25" deep). --- Placed seed in and pinched hole close. No additional water added. --- Sprayed the tray and dome with straight water (5.5 PH). --- Vents are cracked opened a for ventilation (about 1/4 opened each). --- Distance between the light and tray was 53" --- AC was set to 80 °F --- Exhaust fan was set to 86 °F --- Room average temp was at 85 °F --- Dome humidity was at 85-99% when sprayed. --- Allowing to completely dry before respraying. - [2200]: Dome and tray were completely dry! Sprayed only tray and dome with more water. Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/04/20 - Total Days: 002 ----------------------------------- - [0845]: Sprayed dome and tray in the morning. Everything was dry. --- Hoping for the best! - [2130]: Everything was dry again, so sprayed dome and tray at night along with a light spray on the cube. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/05/20 - Total Days: 003 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Everything was dry again. Resprayed dome and tray. Slightly sprayed cube. - [2125]: Hooo damn!! She popped! Am little stub is visible! Resprayed dome and tray again. --- Still going 24/0 for lights. - [+0033]: Just checked up on her and I swear she grew a bit taller! Getting excited! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/06/20 - Total Days: 004 ----------------------------------- - [0845]: Wow! Went from a little stub to fully sprouted overnight! Everything was pretty dry again so resprayed dome and tray. - [2200]: Tap root is visible! Over 1" long too! Just resprayed dome and tray again. -- Going to prep for hydroton transplant tomorrow! Day 05 - Friday - 08/07/20 - Total Days: 005 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: She keeps growing! -- Added a bit of CalMag to the spray bottle (8 drops to 650ml of distilled water). Resprayed dome and tray. Water was at a 5.4 PH with 141 PPM. - [1045]: Prepped the bubble bucket with 4.5gal of water. Water is high enough to reach about 0.25" above the bottom of the net pot. --- Added 3 drops of Superthrive --- Added 3.5ml of CaliMagic --- Added 2ml Hydroguard --- Then PH'd down to 5.6 --- Solution Strengh: 120 PPM --- Water chiller is set to 20 °C - [1100]: Transplant time! --- Filled the net basket 1/3 with hydroton. When placed in the bucket, air bubbles are not visible, but are slightly below the surface (slight digging will reveal the water/bubbles below). --- Removed plastic on rockwool cube and placed in basket, then filled around and covered with hydroton. Making sure to block any light from passing through the net pot and into the nutrient solution. --- Covered with a half-bottle dome sprayed with the CalMag water from earlier. --- Hoping for the best! - [1300]: Raised Bucket 5" higher. Now light distance is 48" to top of bucket. - [1820]: Lowered tent exhaust temp to 76 °F --- Lowered AC to 75 °F --- Raised bucket even higher so light distance is 30" to top of bucket. - [2300]: Looking good! --- Sprayed dome and surrounding hydroton with more CalMag water. --- Attached timer to light! So new 18 Hrs On/6 Hrs Off light schedule. --- Lights On: [1600] (4pm) --- Lights Off: [+1000] (10am the next day) --- Decided to go with lights on during the evening/night and off during the later mornings/afternoon (the hottest part of the day) to see if temps can be controlled better. --- Please survive girl! Day 06 - Saturday - 08/08/20 - Total Days: 006 ----------------------------------- - [0800]: Everything was dry. Resprayed hydroton and dome. - [2000]: Here first night cycle seemed to go well! Get'n taller! --- Dry again. Removed the dome. --- PH went up to 6.5 so PH'd down to 5.7 --- Ran the top feed drip ring for a bout a minute to wet the hydroton and rockwool with the nutient solution. ---Too scared to leave the top feed on 24hrs (I don't want over water her and cause dampening-off). Will let dry before re-watering. - [2100]: After closer inspection, I think she's looking a bit yellow. --- Decided to add a bit of grow nutes to the bubbler solution. --- Added 2ml of Sensi Grow A --- Added 2ml of Sensi Grow B --- Solution strength after adding more nutes: 176 PPM --- PH went up to 6 --- I hope that the extra chelating properties of the 'PH Perfect' solution is enough of a buffer for proper nutrient uptake. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/09/20 - Total Days: 007 ----------------------------------- - [0800]: Water dropped a bit (mostly due to evaporation) so solution strength was at 190. --- Checked PH again. Was still at 6, so PH'd down to 5.4 --- Ran the top feed for a minute to wet the hydroton a bit. - [0915]: Since she's looking perky but still a bit yellow. So decided to up the nutrient concentration even more before lights out. --- Added 2ml more of Sensi Grow A --- Added 2ml more of Sensi Grow B --- Solution strength after adding more nutes: 199 PPM --- PH went up to 5.8 - [1700]: Checked nutrients. --- PH: 5.9 --- Solution strength: 202 PPM --- Added 4ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- PH after adding more nutes: 5.9 --- Solution strength after adding more nutes: 238 PPM - [2130]: Decided to make a new foliar spray to address the continued yellowing. --- Started with 500ml of distilled water. --- Added 3 drops of CaliMagic --- Added 3 drops of Sensi Grow A --- Added 3 drops of Sensi Grow B --- Added 3 drops of B-52 --- Added 1 drop of Superthrive --- Solution strength: 164 PPM --- PH was at 5.9 and did not adjust. --- Gave her one spray. --- Also sprayed the surrounding hydroton. [END OF WEEK 01]

Gestern haben wir unser Pflanze entlaubt, damit sie Luft bekommt und weniger Ungeziefer mit ins Zelt bringt. Dann wurde sie gestretcht damit sie durch die Türen passt. Im Zelt angekommen haben wir die Folie entfernt und haben die hohen Nebentriebe mit Strick unter Low-Stress Verfahren befestigt. Somit bekommen jetzt auch die unteren Triebe/ Blüten ausreichend und mehr Licht. Da sie jetzt sicherlich wieder ausreichend gestresst ist, sehen wir erstmal in den nächsten Tagen keine Entlaubung vor. Dies werden wir dann ca. Ende der Woche vornehmen. Bisher wenig Ungeziefer, zusätzlich haben wir 3 Gelbtafeln reingehangen. Die Lampe war gestern zur Eingewöhnung auf 400/600 Watt eingestellt, ab heute sind wir auf volle Leistung gegangen mit 720 Watt inkl. Deep Red Mode. Wir freuen uns auf die folgende Woche und wünschen allen Growern eine schöne Restwoche und viel Erfolg beim Growen!

Questi semi sono frutto di rimborsi continui, della RQS. Il servizio clienti della RQS è di un livello superiore, impeccabile. Quando ho avuto problemi con i semi, mi sono stati inviati nuovamente e velocemente. Quando un seme della RQS germoglia è si avvia alla crescita si può stare sicuri che sarà una pianta bella e tosta. La Royal è crescita regolarmente, sana e forte. Si è prestata ottimamente a tutti gli stress dovuti ai diversi metodi. La Royal cresce bene ed è una bomba. Ho tagliato 6 cime principali e aspetto alcuni giorni massimo una settimana per il resto Le 6 cime sono risultate 50 gr. Con il taglio del resto della pianta spero di poter raccogliere almeno altri 80-100gr. Vedremo tra oggi e domani.

FUCKING FINALLY!! cant believe there tranplanted and about to be flipped its been about a total of 40 weeks since the two bigs have started and maybe weeks 25 since another 1-2 and the the rest about 15 weeks WAYYY to dam long but thats how it goes its all learning curve, and life happens for sure! There roots are absolutely massive they where so ovegrown for the 2 gal once again so thats all on me. Only snagged 1 root on one of the bigger guys, got caught on my LST hole i made on the pot. Took of all LST training stick because im going to use a trellise to train all down for ecen canopy before i flip! Next post will be day 1 flower! WHOOO 🕺🤦‍♂️ Added great white to soil when transplanted 2 teaspoon for 5 gal pot

D64 - We're at the start of the fifth week of flower, and the girls are looking better day by day. However, a few days I noticed very minor leaf damage on two leaves on the second girl that "might" be thrips damage. It's not a huge deal since the girls will finish in two to three weeks, but I figured it would be prudent to be proactive before the next grow, so I ordered some Cucumeris predatory mites. They arrived today, and I hung a sachet with mites on each girl. D68 - Today, I disconnected the Inkbird controller and humidifier that kept the humidity in the tent high. It is getting towards the end of flower, and I want to decrease the RH in the tent to avoid botrytis. I also set the exhaust fan to run constantly. I hope that will be enough as there isn't enough space in the tent to fit a dehumidifier. #tinytentproblems D69 - The humidity in the tent is still too high for my liking so I had to get creative. I drilled a hole in my dehumidifier so that it can hang in the tent. It's only a small dehumidifier and not very powerful but the tent is tiny and the dehumidifier should be enough to drop the RH by around 10%. D70 - We have reached the end of the fifth week of flower and the girls are rocking it in the tent and their buds are getting fatter as each day passes by. It's only a waiting game at this point although a game where I'm trying to avoid budrot. I adjusted the light schedule yesterday so that the hottest hours of the tent are during the coldest hours of the day. That should even out the temps a bit, and I also keep a flap open on the tent to further reduce the temperature and humidity. The girls are looking great and I would hate to get botrytis and lose part of the harvest.

Week 10, Day 1... Now its 2 Months since The Ladys startet growin (April 21 ) and I think IT will be 1-2 Weeks to The Harvest, Trichome are Milky.

Week 2 of the flowering phase flew by 🌱💨. Unfortunately, I may have overdone it with potassium or kept the water level too high – the classic signs of clawing leaves were evident. Thankfully, they seem to be recovering now and are back under control 💪🍃. My IR night experiment is showing clear results 🌌: The plants exposed to infrared radiation at night stretched significantly more. This might be especially beneficial for this indica-dominant strain as it leads to better canopy distribution, improved airflow, and reduced risks of mold and disease. Plus, the light distribution is much more efficient now, which I’m excited to see pay off. On the downside, my Orange Sherbert turned hermaphroditic 😔. It’s hard to pinpoint the cause – overfertilization seems unlikely since I’m using only organic nutrients. I suspect it might be linked to an E-field experiment I’ve been running. To confirm this theory, I’ll conduct a new grow with a similar strain next year to see if the electric field negatively impacts cannabis development. Stay tuned for updates! Drop a like and follow along for more grow insights 🌿✨. See you next week! Woche 2 der Blütephase ist wie im Flug vergangen 🌱💨. Leider habe ich wohl etwas zu viel Kalium gegeben oder den Wasserstand zu hoch gehalten – die typischen Anzeichen von Adlerkrallen waren sichtbar. Zum Glück scheinen sich diese jetzt zurückzubilden und sind wieder unter Kontrolle 💪🍃. Mein IR-Nachtexperiment zeigt bereits deutliche Ergebnisse 🌌: Die Pflanzen, die nachts mit Infrarotstrahlung bestrahlt wurden, haben deutlich stärker gestretcht. Das ist besonders bei dieser indica-dominanten Sorte wahrscheinlich von Vorteil, da es zu einer besseren Verteilung des Blätterdachs führt. Dadurch verbessert sich die Luftzirkulation, das Risiko von Schimmel und Krankheiten wird minimiert, und die Lichtverteilung wird effizienter. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich das weiter auswirkt! Leider hat meine Orange Sherbert gezwittert 😔. Woran das genau liegt, kann ich schwer sagen. Eine Überdüngung halte ich für unwahrscheinlich, da ich nur biologischen Dünger verwendet habe. Ich vermute, dass mein E-Feld-Experiment eine Rolle spielt. Um das zu bestätigen, werde ich nächstes Jahr einen neuen Durchlauf mit einer ähnlichen Sorte machen und prüfen, ob das elektrische Feld tatsächlich eine ungünstige Rückentwicklung der Pflanze verursacht. Bleibt dran, lasst ein Like da und folgt mir für weitere Updates 🌿✨. Bis nächste Woche!

The girls coped with the induction very well, we are starting the flowering period 💪 The plants are healthy and strong, and the extra light clearly serves them 😍

July 5: Tropicana Cookies FF is very nicely symmetric and fast growing. She’s on schedule and doing great. One more week of veg and then I will start force flowering on July 11. July 7: grew 3+ inches in two days.Lower leaves showing a deficiency that seems to be a lack of phosphorus. Added a 1:1 mix of Power Bloom and barley as a top dressing. About a week early for first flowering nutes but she’s asking for it. July 10: still growing evenly after the final round of topping. I was going to start force flowering (12 h darkness every night for 20 days or so) in two days but I’ll let this wagon (paired with Lemon Cream Kush) veg for another week to get a bit bigger.

🇩🇪 26.2. Tag 109 sie macht sich ganz gut. Weiterhin alles noch etwas auf eine Höhe bringen und irgendwie in Form halten. Ich hab mich inzwischen dazu entscheiden, wenn sie in Blüte geht, lass ich die Trieben mit den Blüten gerade nach oben wachsen. dafür müssen alle auf etwas Abstand zu einander, damit sich die Buds später nicht gegenseitig berühren und alle Triebe genug Platz haben. Wir werden sehen wie gut das klappt. Happy growing💛✌️ 🇬🇧 2.26. Day 109: She's doing quite well. I'll continue to even everything out a bit and keep it in shape. I've decided that when she starts flowering, I'll let the shoots with the flowers grow straight upwards. For this to work, they all need to be spaced a bit apart so the buds don't touch each other later and all the shoots have enough room. We'll see how well that works. Happy growing! 💛✌️

The heat stress is always a problem in my grows but now I have a new climatization system that can really help me !

Week 4 was actually pretty smooth. she was showing nitrogen and potassium deficiencies because she was being terribly underfed and because i had weened her off the veg nutes WAY too soon. I found the dyna gro nutrient schedule and ive been following that. i will definitely be following the schedule much better next round as i wasnt actually aware they had a schedule out. Shes currently week 5 day 1 and shes already fat af and super trichomey.s he still got at least 2 weeks left. she might be ready by week 7 honestly tho who knows guess well see. Ive been giving her 1 gal each time of dechlorinated tap water just straight water. it has been phd to 6.6 ph. runoff tested at 6.3 ph. will probably flush one last time before continuing the bloom feed.

It was a heavy week! Topped and FIMmed my O.G’s, I have no clue if I even did it right since I just topped of the newest node. Gorilla’s seem to be taking a little longer, they are super nice and dense little bushes! Nice dark green tho! 👨‍🌾🏻 Dropped the light on them a few times and burned off a few leaves had to cut off pretty much 25% off a monkey but doesn’t seem to affect it at all.. 1 OG has clear ladyparts sticking out all over, it’s also by far the best grower out of the 8, hope the rest of the plants show some signs soon 😏 I’m impatient. * End of the week update Did lst and it looks like I stepped on my plants.. they are doing fine no worries it just looks terrible 🐘 The gorilla’s are looking beautiful! Dark green and lush! What do you guys think about the OG that’s already getting so many pistons did it start flowering already??

These Durban girls(hopefully) are showing off…So green and full of life…I hope to at least get 1 male to continue this strain. Time will tell.
