Well here we are at the beginning of week 8. Super windy today but I got my new rain tarp up. June 25th gave all the plants pretty good snip except for Cinderella number 2 which is still slow but coming along tomorrow I may top all the other little branches not quite sure yet. just fucked up my pH metre by hitting the calibration button by accident and now I have no solution to recalibrate it so I'm going to have to wait and kind of wing it until the new one gets here in a couple of weeks but my pH in my house water is around 7- 7.5 12 ml of vinegar in 12 qts should be the ticket. Friday June 26th well I found a way to use clothes pins to use them as wait to hold the branches down I kind of like it tell me what you think. well looks like everything is coming along okay I keep the newts down I rather have them a little too lower than too high. well this is the last day of week 8 in July 1st and everything seemed to be going along fine but it looks like my Cinderella 99 run into a bit of a deficiency on the nitrogen and somebody let me know if this is right or not and if there's somebody in Toronto who can test the tap water for pH levels and let me know my pH metre is broken right now

It's been another easy week in the Fastbuds tent. I've spent most my energy preparing my outdoor grow space for a wild summer. At this point, there's not much I can do except water and watch my plants grow. I've added videos of other plants in relations to the mimosa cake just for visual aid. I also added a photo of my cheese auto.. it's still drying! With the Mimosa cake auto I've been taking fan leaves off slowly for weeks now. This is a very busy plant. She is also going to run later than I expected. She's on day 76 and I suspect 95 to 100 days to finish time. I'll have to keel feeding her bloom nutes for the next few weeks; her 3 gallon bucket ran out of nutrients already. Feeding schedule: water, feed, water, feed Step 1- I'll take an aeration stone and use it to remove the chlorine residual in the water... this only takes 8 - 12 hours depending on water temperature. (I'm a water treatment process operator, I have checked several times in the past with my own Cl2 meters). Step 2 - add Calmag Step 3- add bloom nutes Final step - pH the water accordingly (very important that this is final step) A TDS residual of 500 ppm equals roughly 1 E.C. (I just double it)

Big bud strain is the one with smalest buds, but thats my fault, not an easy life for her, many problems with ph result in slow growth.. New growth is now more green, but i think its to late for the recovery so i dont expect to much from her 💔 The others have a few brow spots and yellow leaves but overall they look good 🙏 Watering 3L + nutes every 2 days. Day 45 Buds are getting more fat now 😍 But they have a bit nute burn, a little more on #2, i will reduce the nutes.. Big Bud is still very fragile, with signs of heat stress.. 🙁 Smell is very sweet in the tent 😋

Strong genetics, resistant, fast enough, easy to grow and never pretentious. I will try further training techniques on this strain, while waiting to make more room in the box to plant the Red hot cookie as well. If you like sweet flavors and fragrant plants this is definitely for you! Soon new updates for a cycle of only plants in "monstercropping", to continue my eternal red garden 😁🦄 thanks for following me up to here and leave a comment and suggestions 🦄👍🤘

Heya long time no see 💚😳 06-27-26. Popped her into a cup of happy frog soil, sprayed with water, then sprayed inside a sandwich baggie and covered the cup. Didn’t put seed deep enough and got a bit of helmet head, but she popped it mostly off. I knocked it the rest of the way. I’m using happy frog for the seed starting, but will use Coast of Maine for transplanting. Will be first time using it. I put some information down there should you care to read it. 👇. Noted for advanced growers LOL. Well.. rip. ? 🤭 Garlic Mint Sherbet is a photoperiod line built from a Garlic Cookies (GMO) clone crossed with our selected Sherbanger phenotype (Boston Roots Seed Co). The goal behind this project was to combine the raw intensity and resin production of GMO with the layered Sherbet-based terpene profile of Sherbanger. The terpene profile is complex and evolving. At first, it leans toward a soft Sherbet sweetness, but as it develops, it opens into something much deeper: fresh garlic notes combined with a spicy, refreshing minty edge. It’s a profile that keeps changing the more you smell and work with it, moving from creamy to sharp, from sweet to pungent and cooling. Structurally, plants produce large flowers with heavy trichome coverage, making this one of the highest resin-producing lines in our catalog. It performs especially well for extraction, with strong returns across different methods, and stands out as a reliable washer.Plants tend to develop dark coloration, ranging from deep green to almost black and purple tones, especially under proper conditions. From a cultivation standpoint, this line shows medium sensitivity to environmental stress, particularly water temperature during processing and overall grow conditions. When dialed in correctly, it delivers both in yield and resin quality.The effect is powerful and body-heavy, leaning toward a strong couch-lock. Best suited for evening use, relaxation, or before sleep. Please Note: this strain requieres experience, we recomend it only for Advanced Growers

1/20/2023- So much to do pre grow and over the next 16 days, absolute first order of business is that I have to take down my current Grow---TIMBER-- Then I have a list of things I have to get done in order to be ready to start this grow 1 Feb. With that said T - 2 days until start 48 hour Flush T - 2 days until Start 48 hours of Light T - 4 days until TIMBER!!! Items that need to be done before 1 Feb 2023 1. I need to clean the tent out 2. I need to clean the equipment- Proper Sanitization between grows in Hydro is a must!!! 3. I need to get the hole in the ceiling above my tent repaired- For my last grow I had a deep sink installed in my grow room, to make Hydroponics a little bit easier and have a water source in the same room. The seals on the pipes they were installing broke and leaked through the ceiling causing some damage all the way across my grow room, I was already weeks into my grow and couldn't risk them working above my tent and it would have been very awkward positon for them to be working in as well, so have to get this done quickly between chop and germination. 4. I have to install my new light- I was using a Vivosun 4000 and for this grow I am switching up to a Spider-farmer SF 7000. 1/20/23- For this upcoming grow I am working with M/F photo seeds so I ordered 4 Sex determination kits. I recieved my my 4 Sex determination testing kits from Rimrock Analytics today. I will be using these to test my plants at week 2 of Veg so that when/if I take clones I know I am taking them off females. As well as I don't want to accidently pollinate my tent during this grow I am looking for big beautiful buds not seeded buds. :-) 1/24/2023- Harvest of current grow- Started at 2:00pm and finshed wet trim and firt batch into the freeze dryer. 1/25/2023- Next batch into the freeze dryer and cleaning all my equipment for this Grow. T-1 Day until the workers are supposed to be here to fix the hole in the Grow Room. T-3 days until I instll my new Gorilla Grow Tent and my New Light Spider Farmer SE-7000 for this grow. T-7 Days until Start of Germination 1/26/2023- Harvest is done ran through the Freeze dryer and dry tim completed. 1/27/2023- Grow Room repairs completed. Hole is gone Letting the paint dry before I install the new tent. T-2 days until Install the New Gorilla Grow tent and the new Light T-3 days until I put the hydro equipment in the new tent T-5 days until Germination 1/29/2023- Day 0- Final Pre Germination activities Germination Start T-3 days The paint on the ceiling was dry and it was time to finish prepping for Germination. I got the following items knocked off my list. New 4X4 Gorilla Grow Tent is up and ready New Spider Farmer SE-7000 Light is installed- Thanks Moony Grows for the suggestion and for the Code that got me some money off and free shipping (Moonygrows)!! I turned the lights all the way up to max and set the timer to 18/6 0600-0000. I will keep an eye on the temperature and humidity without my plants and see how hot it gets with the new light. I put my Hydro system back together and put in 40 gallons of water into it, time to monitor for leaks the next few days. I Setup my cloning machine for Germination Days 3-11 1/30/2023 let me break down the situation, ROOM in the TENT.. Enough said.. No really I tried putting my exhaust system up in the new tent with my new light, The light is so big corner to corner that it really didn't give me enough room for the lights be be raised, with the exahust hanging the buckets my plants are Starting in are 2 and 1/2 feet off the ground, great for plenty of room for roots but not so great for upwards space for the plant to grow. In a 6' 11 tent with the exauhst in side and hanging that only gave me a little over 4 feet of grow room to play with. My last grow if you saw my diary, anyone could tell I was struggling to keep the buds off the lights. No good, Since space was such an issue I was running my carbon filter inside on the ground but It really needed to be up sucking the heat out not shooting the cool out. With that setup I was sucking air through the filter and pushing it out the tent at a bottom exhaust hole cold out. Wasn't doing me any good for my heat. I was hitting temps of up to 85 degrees. I bought a portable AC unit and have been running it in the grow room to try and keep temps below 85 and I have had to lower the power on my lights during grow also not ideal.. With that said a friend of mine MoonyGrows (Check out his diary) took the time to look at my issue send me a picture of my grow tent setup with detailed instructions on how to suck the air out from the top but putting my filter and fan on top of my tent so no room issue and I am sucking the air out from the top where the heat is instead of pushing the air out from the bottom where the cool is... THANK YOU MoonyGrows For taking the time to help me get this straightened out.. Now I have room and I have the exhausts working right and now my temps with everything at 100% are topping out at 80 this dropped the temp by 5 + degrees at 100% max. T-2 days until Start of Germination Prepped my seed tray with humidity dome Prepped my Rapid Rooter plugs. I Used RO water, and I added a few drops of Hydrogen peroxide to Oxygenate the water. I then PH balanced between 5.7-6.0 the same that they will be getting in the Cloning Machine and when they get to thier final grow pod. I perfere the 5.8x range and I hit 5.84 for these rapid rooters. If you want to see a complete video on the process HowWeedGrow has an amzing video that shows step by step how to do it and explains it better than I ever could including how to plant the seeds. Which I will cover when I get to that step on Wed. https://www.howweedgrow.com/how-germinate-weed-seeds-cannabis-rapid-rooters/ 1/31/2023 T-1 day until Germination Start All set and ready have my Rapid Rooter plugs ready to go have my seeds out.. Have my seed tray warming up tonight. Tomorrow morning right into the Rapid Rooter then strait into the tray. I will spray the dome to start the humidity in there. 2/1/2023 Germination Day!! Let the games begin! 0600am Put the seeds into the Root Riots. And then put the seeded Root Riots into their first home the Seed tray. I have them under the light 24/7. Sprayed the dome 7:30pm Sprayed the Dome to keep humidity going on the dome. 2/2/2023 Day 1 of Germination Sprayed the Dome in the morning Sprayed the Dome in the evening 2/3/2023 Day 2 of Germination Roots are starting to come out the bottom of the root riot plugs and the heads are slowly popping out of Number 4 just below the surface. Afternoon- Number 4 has popped up Evening- Number 3 has popped up as well. Happy Dance!! 2/4/2023 Day 3 - Germination Surprise Surprise Surprise- all 4 have now poked their heads up.. Happy day!! 100% Germination succeeded. Now major milestone to track is how many are female and how many are male. I will take look at the roots this afternoon/evening and see if they have enough root to go into the cloning machine for the next 7 days before they go into their Hydro Pods. Day 3 - Germination - Evening.. Roots looked good and they were tall enough to make it into the cloning machine. Now that they are all in the cloning machine I have switched the lighting to veg state 18 on 6 off. 2/5/2023 Day 4 - Germination - Morning All the Ladies (fingers crossed) looking great stretching nicely and look nice and green, Photo synthesis underway.... UPDATE!! After a very interesting POD cast on FSTS by Dr. Bruce Bugsbee from Utah University, I have shifted my lighting to 24 hours on through seedling and then I am going to shift to 20 hours on the rest of Veg. 2/6/2023 Day 5 - Germination While Checking on my conditions inside the new tent last night, I found that the Humidity was down to 39 Percent. I added an AquaOasis Cool Mist Humidifier, the reason I selected this humidifier is that I needed one that could be turned on and off utilizing my Inkbird Humidity Controller IHC200 that I have my Pro Breeze Dehumidifier currently running with. Root structures are starting to get there about 1/4 of an inch. 2/7/2023 Day 6 - Germination Everything seems on track more roots poking out of each today. They are each getting a little taller as well. Checked in the evening and number 3 was drooping the Root riot plug on the bottome was dry and the roots were not in the water yet. I raised the water just enough that the longest root that was sticking out is now hitting the water. 2/8/2023 Day 7 - Germination Everything looked good while checking in on them this morning number 3 is now full up and no droop again. 2/9/2023 Day 8 - Germination T-2 days until Plant into Forever Pods and we start week 1 of Veg .. :-) Surprising thing to me is that number 1 and 2 were later in popping then 3 and 4 but the roots are growing longer in 1 and 2. 2/10/2023 Day 9 - Germination Number 1 and Number 2 are definitely ready for transplant today.. Based on how they were yesterday and where they are today I am hoping by tomorrow 3 and 4 are ready. Today they look to me where 1 and 2 did yesterday.. I really hope 3 and 4 catch up by tomorrow since.. T-1 day until transplant to new/ final home for grow. Need the roots long enough to have some clay down in the basket to keep the root riot out of the water and only roots in the water.. 2/11/2023 Day 10 - Germination Today they got placed in thier forever Home, 7 days from Sprout and 7 days until Week 1 Start. PPM- 180 this is water out of the Tap Temp Water: 70.7 Temp Tent: 77 Humidity: 40% I have a humidifier going 24/7 to try and bring this up.. I also have Humidity Domes on each plant. 2/12/2023 Day 11 - Germination Sprayed the domes, all are looking good.. Nothing much to do at this phase but Keep monitoring the PH level in the system and making sure they have a comfortable home. T-6 days until Week 1 start 2/13/2023 Day 12 - Germination Sprayed the domes, They were looking a little yellow today so I moved the light down to assist. Nothing much to do at this phase but Keep monitoring the PH level in the system and making sure they have a comfortable home. T-5 days until Week 1 start 2/14/2023 Day 13 - Germination Sprayed the domes, They were looking a little Florissant yellow today, with what looks like slight burn on the tips, I talked with a fellow grower and we agreed that It was probably that I was drowning them, Yes you can drown you plants even in Hydro, but only early on.. :-) It usually happens with the water being too high, which soaks not only the roots but the medium (root Riot plug in this case). I lowered the water from touching the bottom of the pot to about 1" away. This will probably take 3-4 days to resolve. I will continue my daily monitoring. T-4 days until Week 1 start 2/15/2023 Day 14 - Germination Sprayed the domes, continue my daily monitoring they look a little darker green instead of lime green now that I lowered the water levels in the system, so I think that I might have resolved the issue but it will take a few days for recovery to happen. T-3 days until Week 1 start 2/16/2023 Day 15 - Germination I looked in on them this morning, 3 and 4 look like they are doing well and recovering nicely. Number 1 not so much it has brown spots on the leaves, this very well can still be a side effect of the overwatering but I decide to go ahead and add Nutes earlier than I was planning just incase. I was going to wait until Saturday but I think intervention is necessary now especially after drowning them early on. I added 1/2 what I am planning on adding for week 1 start. I also think I am going to adjust my chart to add 1/2 2 days after plant from now on. I don't think it would hurt it to have some Nutes to pull from. .25ml/Gal Calmag = 12.5ml 1ml/gal GH FloraMicro= 50ml 1ml/gal GH FloraGro = 50ml 1ml/gal GH FloraBloom = 50ml T-2 days until Week 1 start = I will drain the system and start it over on Saturday with Week 1 Nutes. 2/17/2023 Day 16- Germination I didn't even want to post today after looking in on them this morning, 3 of the 4 are now showing signs of dronwing.. Brown spots on the leaves, the water levels were still too high.. I drained about another inch out of the tanks.. Will see how quick they recover.. I start week 1 tomorrow and will have to ensure my water levels are at least 1" away from the basket on this round.

Cash Express – Pheno B | Week 3 Small Sister, Big Potential Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure, where every phenotype earns its own place in the spotlight. While sister plants may share the same parents, they rarely tell exactly the same story—and that is one of the most fascinating parts of growing from seed. This week brings us to Cash Express Pheno B, the quieter sister of the pair. At first glance she may appear slightly behind Pheno A in overall size and development, but spending a little time with the photographs reveals something far more interesting. This is not a weak plant. This is a plant writing her own chapter. ⸻ Week 3 Environment 🌡️ Temperature: 27.4°C 💧 Relative Humidity: 55% 💡 PPFD: ~700 µmol/m²/s 🌱 Medium: Plagron Lightmix ? Growing Method: 12/12 From Seed 💦 Water Consumption: ~0.9–1.2L per day Feeding Schedule Days 18 * EC 1.0 * pH 5.99–6.0 * Approximately 1L Days 21 * EC 1.3 * pH 6.0 * Approximately 1.2L The environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week, allowing differences between phenotypes to become increasingly visible. ⸻ Cash Express Pheno B If Pheno A represents symmetry and textbook structure, Pheno B represents individuality. She is slightly smaller. A little less aggressive. A little less imposing. But she possesses something equally valuable. Character. Looking at the canopy from above, the first thing that stands out is how compact and tidy she remains. While her sister is charging forward with obvious vigor, Pheno B appears to be investing more energy into establishing structure before accelerating upward. The leaves are healthy and evenly colored. The stems remain strong. The new growth is vibrant and active. Most importantly, the plant shows no signs of struggling despite her slightly slower pace. In fact, many experienced growers learn over time that the fastest seedling is not always the plant that finishes strongest. Some phenotypes sprint. Others build momentum. Right now, Pheno B feels very much like the second type. ⸻ A Different Growth Rhythm One of the most interesting aspects of growing multiple phenotypes side by side is seeing how differently plants can respond under identical conditions. Same tent. Same nutrients. Same environment. Same light. Yet each plant interprets those conditions through its own genetic lens. Cash Express Pheno B seems to prefer a more measured approach. The internodes remain relatively compact. The branching is beginning to establish itself. The center of the plant is becoming increasingly busy with fresh growth. And while she may not command attention immediately through sheer size, she rewards closer observation. There is a quiet confidence developing here. A feeling that she is preparing rather than rushing. ⸻ Healthy Signs Everywhere Several positive observations stand out this week: * Excellent leaf color throughout the canopy * Strong, healthy petiole development * Compact structure * Good node formation * Active new growth * Positive response to increased feeding and PPFD The fresh growth emerging from the center is particularly encouraging. Those younger leaves display the lighter green color typical of rapidly expanding tissue, showing that the plant is actively building new biomass and continuing to adapt to the increased light levels. Nothing about this plant suggests limitation. Only a slightly different timetable. ⸻ The Beauty of Phenotype Variation One of the goals of documenting every phenotype separately is to capture these subtle differences. If both sisters looked identical, there would be little to learn. Instead, we get to observe how two related plants express themselves in unique ways. Pheno A currently impresses through vigor and structure. Pheno B impresses through balance and composure. Both approaches are valid. Both are beautiful. And both deserve their own spotlight. Sometimes the plant that receives less attention early on becomes the one that surprises everyone later. I’ve seen that story play out many times before. Perhaps Pheno B has a surprise waiting for us too. ⸻ Looking Ahead Over the coming week I will be watching closely for: * Increased branch development * Changes in growth rate under the higher PPFD * Early flowering indicators from the 12/12 schedule * Structural differences compared to Pheno A * Signs of unique phenotype expression At this stage she remains healthy, happy, and steadily progressing. And honestly, that’s exactly what I want to see. No drama. No problems. Just growth. ⸻ Thank You A huge thank you to everyone following along with this project. Thank you to the GrowDiaries community for creating a place where growers from around the world can learn from one another. Thank you to Plagron for supporting this cultivation journey. Thank you to Zamnesia for the genetics and the opportunity to document these cultivars from seed to harvest. And thank you to every grower who takes the time to stop by, leave a comment, share advice, or simply enjoy the journey. Every plant has a story. Some tell it loudly. Others tell it quietly. This week, Cash Express Pheno B reminds us that quiet stories are often worth listening to. 🌱💚 Growers Love and see you next week, little lady. Keep growing your way.

Ya empieza tener buena pinta esto farmers!! Una semana después de transplantar las niñas ya están recuperadas, menos un par que tiene carencias de nitrógeno... el resto bien,esta vez conseguiremos que no se vayan de madre para arriba como la última vez! Me encanta las nuevas genéticas de royal queens seeds!💚

2026_08_08 _Setup I rotated the pot again (back to its original position) because the plant is actually growing 'too vigorously' and is already touching the wall. This gives it more space and makes it easier to shape it into a more even canopy. _Living Soil I got a little weevil! _Plants Although there were some slight imbalances in recent weeks, there are no longer any signs of a deficiency. Even the tips of the leaves are completely green.

As of March 27, Day 7 of the grow, the seedling is doing alright but showing minor cal-mag deficiency. I will be doing a little cal-mag foliar spraying to help get through this delicate period. I turned on my HLG-100v2 light and have the seedling vegging under a 20/4 hour light schedule. I have transitioned up to .8EC as increasing the cal-mag in the coco is important after a week of low EC fertigation. I maintain a 5 gallon nutrient reservoir with an air stone and H202 to keep it sterile, and have a pump to automatically water 3 times a day for 20 second intervals. March 29, Day 9: I am still trying to correct the minor cal-mag issues, but the Euforia is still growing at a pretty good speed so I am not too worried. March 30, Day 10: running a humidifier under a clear dome to get the RH up for the seedling.

Buds are looking pretty. Already nice frosting of trichomes and density for small size is surprising. Have been worried about my roots and have taken all need steps to try and fix it. So far Daphni shows no signs of stress or nutrient lose. Knock on wood. Will be playing Velvet Underground for her this week. Does it make sense to cut off bad roots?
