Sep 12: getting close to the end but not quite ready yet. Unfortunately there has been five or six nice colas hit by bud rot. I check it daily for any brown and shrivelled sugar leaves and I found a disturbing number today. Was only 4 C but with 90% humidity last night which explains the bud rot outbreak. Will try harder to keep it drier. With that, I decided to do the Final Flush today. Started using this last year and I quite like what it did. A few years ago I had buds that didn't burn properly and that was due to too much P fertilizer. This flush uses citric acid to chelate the salts and remove them from the soil. Good stuff. Sep 13: did another 18 L flush because I decided the 9 L flush yesterday wasn’t enough at just one pore volume (30% of 27 L of soil). Defoliated to improve air flow and sunlight to buds. Sep 16: the bud rot is systemic showing up in 16 colas at the same elevation- about 5-10 cm below top. I think it was due to one night last week of 4 C and 90% humidity for about 8 hours overnight. Harvested the top buds to keep it from spreading further. Harvested 625 g of mildly immature buds and threw out almost that much - leaving the lower buds to mature. Clearly I spoke too soon when I said ‘one pound no problem’ a little while ago. Great fresh chemical smell tho. Fresh frozen to deal with later.

Nachtrag weil vergessen. Die Seifuku wurde getoppt, weil sie eh etwas Vorsprung gegenüber der Sour Zoda hat. Das Living Soil geht gut ab und beide wachsen gleichmäßig weiter. Bei der Sour Zoda wird noch etwas gewartet mit Training, dann wird bei ihr gezielt ein Blattpaar entfernt, um so einen buschigeren Wuchs zu erzielen. Bei meiner Red Velvet hat das super funktioniert, mal sehen, wie sie es findet. Gegossen wurden beide mit ungefähr 1,5 L auf 3 Tage aufgeteilt. ---- The Seifuku was topped since it already had a bit of a lead compared to the Sour Zoda. The living soil is working really well and both are continuing to grow evenly. For the Sour Zoda, training will be held off a little longer; then a specific pair of leaves will be removed to encourage bushier growth. That worked really well with my Red Velvet—let’s see how she responds. Both were watered with about 1.5 L spread out over 3 days.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la segunda semana de floración de estas FBA2506 de FastBuds. De las 5 plantas, retiré una y me quedaré con 4 , preselección. La tierra que utilizamos que está en la publicación anterior es top crop all mix, Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2, regando cada 48 horas e intentando mantener la humedad un poco alta al principio. Las próximas semanas vamos viendo cómo florecen y avanzan. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Everything went good the first week overall. I’m struggling to keep my humidity up in this tent even with a humidifier running directly in the tent. Outside the tent the room is 25% and my flowering tents are also in this room and sit around 40-50% inside. So I’m thinking I’m going to grab one of those fans that is controlled off your humidity value or a humidity controlled relay and continue to run my humidifier directly in the tent. If I shut off my outtake fan humidity skyrockets quick, but so does the heat, so I need something to turn on and off my fan relative to my humidity in the veg tent only and hopefully find that sweet spot of temp/humidity. May be a bit pricy but I think it will be worth the expense to keep my seedling/veg tent humidity up at the proper levels while still being in the same room as my flowering tents and still be able to keep them at 40%-50%. My humidity basically is the last piece of my puzzle I need to get under control in my grow room to have everything dialled in across all my tents. But we are making do until then, just a pain having to fill this humidifier 3 times a day...lol if I can control the air intake better I should be able to run the humidifier at a lower setting and use less water. Roots are just starting to leave the basket now, I have been taking a cup of water from the bucket daily and pouring it over the rock wool and pebbles back into the bucket to keep everything wet. Still running just strait water, I think I will be adding a very low dose of nutrients this week as they are at that point soon. That’s it for this week, be back again next week! Cheers💨

11/18 12am Monday 4.3 grams Maxi-Bloom & 0.8 Purpinator this week. They are getting tall except Apple. Everything looks good I might take some branches off the back of them today. 2pm Gave all water today just MB 4.8. Used the entire gallon on the plants today. Have to mix up more, takes 2 days to dissolve longer if it's cold. 11/20 Wed. 1am Fatso & Garlic are getting tall had to move the lights, ducting & fans up. Have to wash the hand made intake and exit filters today. the double sided tape and merv 13 do a really nice job. 👍 4am the lights were too close. Should’ve kept them at 96W if I make any changes now it could trigger pollen sacks 11/21 1pm some defoliation on Orion, Changed the filters they were dirty and preventing clean fresh air from circulating properly. 11/22 Friday. Garlic is TALL!!! Apple is filling in finally, I keep forgetting some are 2 weeks behind. The main 4 colas are going to be solid like photos. I have to add some more dirt. Pretty amazing plants. . took an hour to upload. 9am The Seedsman plants. are putting out lots of resin now, Fatso is fat, looks like I will have 4 MASSIVE colas from each plant. I just experimented with jar drying my last harvest and it worked out great. 12pm Just spent lots of time doing LST on Cosmos, I did every branch I could. Hope this works. 11/23 Saturday 1am. Takes a while to upload. Looks good from yesterday. I might have to take off at least 1 of the small inner branches not sure. Dont want to do any more defoliation than I have to it will just slow down the plant if I do. 5am Several of the top leaves on Cosmos are stretching up which means she's happy and healthy the LST training worked she's happy. 1pm Gave everyone water at 11am. Mixed up Maxi-Bloom 4.3 grams & 0.8ml Purpinator balances pH to 6.4.

Week 12 over! Cant believe how fast this last 3 months has gone! My 6 ladies are powering on and just keep getting bigger and bigger. They have had 2 nute feeds this week and now 2 flush feeds. Planning on going with a 10 day flush. I will continue to upload pictures throughout the week as I'll be asking for a experienced opinion on when to chop. So far I'm seeing literally 1 or 2 amber trichs on the biggest of the 6 but no anywhere else. I'm thinking this is a good sign that my target of cropping next Sunday is still on track. That would be exactly 13 weeks. Buds are looking so so dense. Hard to get a photo that does them justice but the biggest colas are 75mm thick! If your here then please also check out my new diaries where I'm running 3 FastBuds strains. These will be going in my environment as soon as the stardawgs are jarred up.

Been a rainy week here and things are starting to heat up. Humidity and temperature a little higher than ideal. Not really noticing too much smell yet but my house always smells like weed so who knows. There is a very pungent lemon sme when touching the leaves so we’ll see what she does!
