Liebe Leute, Woche 5 ist im vollen Gange! PK 13-14 schlägt gut an, die Buds werden dichter und wachsen so langsam zusammen! Harz Produktion ist heftig, die Finger kleben nach dem entlaufen für die kleineren Colas weiter unten. Manche Härchen werden langsam braun aber die Ladys haben noch viel Zeit um groß und stark zu werden. Momentan ist es für mich schwierig mit dem Wassermanagement, bei 29-30 Grad im Zelt und Stofftöpfen brauchen sie 5 Liter alle drei Tage! Ich bin gespannt wie die nächsten Wochen werden! Liebe Grüße Fićo

CHERRY 🍒 COLA by FASTBUDS Week #12 Overall Week #7 Flower This lady just about done she's really a strong plant she's small but she's got the genetics to fend off pests and grow in extremely hot 🔥 temps in the idea conditions she's going to produce!! FASTBUDS really have made some great advancements with autoflowers!! Stay Growing!! FASTBUDS CHERRY 🍒 COLA AUTO

Buds are filling out.. Smell is starting to appear..

everything seems to be going well :)

Brought to you by a pair of Mars Hydro SP3000s. Grow on Earth. Grow on Mars. 69 😉 days from seed soak. Veg is done. Sending off to Mars to flower cuz I installed 2 SP3000s in my 2x4 (60x120) tent. Introduced Nectar and have been feeding full strength now. Seems like I have to water every day...1 gallon each of full feed per plant, 18 hours later seems like they are thirsty again..leaves drooping down and perk up after water. I’ll start doing 1.5 gallons and up the nutes....maybe it’s the new lights. Photone says: ~90000 lux in middle, ~70000 on the edges/sides. I think I’m pushing it but it seems my plants are loving it. That’s it for now and thanks for stopping by. Happy growing 🌱🌱🌱

Insane color, insane structure, insane sugar and some very intense smell. They are nearly ready its only about some days maybe 3-4 days until harvest i guess. Only watering with plain rain water, dont actually flush but put the clear water into my tent so they take a bath. My next update is when they are dry

Harvested today, truly strong smell, cultivation was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Very happy with the result, anxious for the drying and curing process! Thank you for following along.. 🤜🤛🌱🌿🌲

Week 4 Report: White OG – Bigger Roots, Bigger Heights! 🌟 What a week for our White OG! 🌱 She’s had an epic milestone week with her first transplant into a larger pot and her first topping at node 7. Each step has been about preparing her for greatness, and she’s taken everything in stride. Let’s dive into the details of her journey this week and why these steps are so important for her development. The Transplant: New Home, New Opportunities 🌿 The first big move of the week was upgrading her from her small pot to a bigger pot with a perfect blend of soil and nutrients to fuel her next stage of growth. Soil Choice: PRO-MIX HP Mycorrhizae + Bacillus This premium soil mix is a grower’s best friend, designed to give plants a perfect foundation. Here’s why I chose it: • High Porosity (HP): Promotes excellent drainage and aeration, preventing overwatering and ensuring roots have access to oxygen. • Mycorrhizae: These beneficial fungi form a symbiotic relationship with the plant’s roots, increasing water and nutrient uptake while improving overall root health and vigor. • Bacillus Subtilis: A powerful beneficial bacterium that helps protect against soil pathogens, enhances nutrient absorption, and boosts overall plant resilience. This mix creates an optimal environment for strong, healthy roots to develop, setting the stage for explosive vegetative growth. Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets: Nutrient Perfection To supercharge the soil, I incorporated Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets into the mix. These pellets are a complete slow-release nutrient solution that ensures consistent feeding over time. • Key Benefits: • Long-lasting nutrient release (up to 2-3 months). • Contains macro and micronutrients essential for steady, balanced growth. • Supports microbial activity in the soil, further boosting nutrient availability. • Easy to use and prevents nutrient burn. By combining Pro-Mix HP with Aptus Pellets, she’s getting the best of both worlds: a thriving microbiome and consistent nutrition to fuel her development. The Topping: Encouraging Bushier Growth 🌱✂️ At the end of the week, I decided it was time for her first topping—a critical training technique to shape her growth structure. I chose to top her at node number 7, leaving a solid foundation for future growth. What Is Topping? Topping involves cutting off the plant’s main growing tip to encourage it to grow multiple main colas (branches). This redirects energy from vertical growth to lateral (side) growth, creating a bushier, more productive plant. Why Topping Matters: 1. Maximizes Yield: By encouraging more colas, the plant can produce more flowers during the flowering stage. 2. Improves Light Penetration: A bushier plant allows light to reach more leaves and nodes, improving overall growth. 3. Encourages Even Canopy: Topping helps create a flat, even canopy, which is ideal for maximizing light distribution. The timing of topping is crucial, and at node 7, she’s strong enough to handle the stress while still early enough to recover quickly and focus on lateral growth. Environment and Feeding Routine: Consistency Is Key 🌟 This week, the environment has stayed perfect for her needs: • Temperature: Warm and steady, promoting steady vegetative growth. • Humidity: Still high to support root development post-transplant. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED continues to shine now at 300 PPFD, delivering just the right intensity for compact, strong growth. Nutrient-wise, we stuck with the reliable Aptus Holland lineup: • Regulator (0.15 ml/L): Strengthening her structure and managing stress from the transplant and topping. • CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L): Supporting chlorophyll production and preventing deficiencies. • All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L): Providing her with balanced, immediate nutrients to complement the slow-release pellets. • Start Booster (0.25 ml/L): Encouraging her roots to keep pushing deeper and stronger. Looking Ahead: Building on a Strong Foundation Next week, I’ll be watching for her recovery from topping and monitoring how she adjusts to her new pot and nutrient-rich soil. I’m expecting explosive growth as she settles into her new environment and gets ready for the big stages ahead!

We are actually around week 20........ Canuck Seeds seems to have sensored the review i left about the seeds not autoflowerings, as did TrueNorthSeed

Great week for these plants. They are super healthy and moving along right through the early weeks of flower. 🌱 I've only been giving them water as I use organic compost as a meduim and they are very happy. 😎 The plant on the right is already very pungent.😵

Oatmeal cookies has no frost. She looking a little light. I think this is week eight and she not looking straight. But other than that don’t look like I’m getting any seeds and the bud looks weak anyway. I guess I didn’t pick a winner after all. Well back to the lab. 😁

She has exploded since last week so i tied her down a bit more. I think that she has almost reached full growth potential if she hasn't already. The bud development is starting to ramp up. I also removed a few leaves I watered once with 2,5l of rain water and another time with 3l. There were some very hot days (32-38 °C) so she had to be in the shade. I don't know if the burnt tips are because of the sun or a nute burn/deficiency, i will keep on following the biobizz schedule.

Buds are fattening like crazy this week, begun lowering nitrogen to allow concentration on the buds to get as fat as possible

Unfortunately we lost one (intersex) but I feel this girl was the right one to move forward. Fantastic smells very OG, beautiful purple in colour plenty of colour tbh and grows nice stacked buds.

18 september - only water

Changed into final pots ( 15L ) and into the final tent (240x120). The repotting was urgently necessary because all the nutrients from the old soil were used up and the pots were completely rooted. I probably should have repotted sooner

En esta semana se bajaron los niveles de ph y ppm. De 6.5 de ph bajamos a 6.2,6.3 Y las ppm de 700 la llevamos a 1080. Se aumento la dosis de las bases de 2 ml/L a 3ml/L. Se realizaron todos estos cambios para mejorar la calidad de las hojas, las puntas están con un color amarillo, y no se si es algún exceso o carencia a causa de la calidad del agua. Pero en términos generales esta muy bien la primer semana de floracion,quedan muchas semanas más por delante.

Day 06 - Saturday - 10/18/25 - Total Days: 188 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages ~[+01:00] - Temps: 76.8°F [24.9°C] - Humidity: 60.3% - VPD: 1.25 kPa - Soil %: [47, 34, 35, 55, 44, 44, 44, 47] ----------------------------------- - [15:19]: Decided to decrease the VPD level a bit. --- Within the AC Infinity App, --- Changed the schedule name from 'Flower [12/12]' to 'Drying [0/24].' Oops. --- For the Main Tent [4x4] controller, --- Adjusted the 'Drying [0/24]' Schedule for the exhaust fan. ------ Decreased the VPD LOW trigger value from 1.5kPa to 1.4kPa --- Adjusted the 'Drying [0/24]' Schedule for the humidifier. ------ Decreased the VPD target value from 1.5kPa to 1.4kPa --- This should increase the relative humidity a bit and will maintain a 60-65% range - [16:59]: Evening check on the 3x3 veg tent. --- Wow the veg garden is raging with healthy growth! --- Even with the lower veg temps, growth has been perky and bushy! --- The TKO mother has been looking a bit on the purple-side, but I plan to increase the temps back after trim day. - [17:23]: Okay! Time to continue the tissue culture journey! --- Checked on the sterilized media, water, and tools. --- Ooo yea! The growth media in the glass jars have solidified nicely! --- The media in the bottles also look great! Found only one that did not gel properly. --- Hmm. The sterile water bottles are not looking sterile. Unlike the first batch (using distilled water), each RO bottle had tiny white particles floating in the water. --- I think this was due to the water source. The RO water used was from the plant reservoir. For the next sterilization, will try using water straight from the tap. Will discard the entire batch and try again later. - [17:34]: Anyways! Time to cut and sterilize another batch of explant cuttings. --- Using the similar protocols as last time, but with a few changes. --- Instead of distilled, using reverse-osmosis (RO) water. --- Also simplifying the workflow and will not be using the sterile water. --- Only taking cuttings from one cultivar. --- Today, attempting to preserve Heady OG BX1 #1 --- Unlike the last attempt, going to be cutting apical nodes and will leave all leaf growth on. --- Last attempt was more for monsteras and not cannabis. - [17:35]: Made sure the lung room's oscillating fan was OFF during the entire process. --- Put on a fresh pair of nitrile gloves. --- Okay! Let's grow Ensign! - [17:47]: Filled a glass beaker with 180mL of RO water. --- Using a micro-pipette, ------ Added 20mL of Clorox bleach --- Mixed the solution. - [17:52]: Poured the bleach solution into a glass mason jar. ------ Added 1 drop of Dawn dish soap. --- Dropped a magnetic mixing rod into the jar before setting it onto the magnetic stirrer. --- Turned the unit ON and set it to a low setting. --- Placed a polypropylene lid loosely on. - [18:02]: Rinsed and filled the glass beaker with 70% isopropyl alcohol. --- Filled another glass beaker with RO water before adding a drop of Dawn dish soap. Mixed the solution. --- Okay! Time to take the cuttings! --- Using a clean pair of trimmers, - [18:09]: Gently cut two clone cuttings from the Heady OG BX1 #1 mother. --- Stripped each cutting down to 2-inch apical nodes making sure to leave about 0.5 inch of stem growth for planting. ------ Prepared a total of 2 nodal cuttings. --- Dropped the nodal cuttings into the cup of soapy water. --- Swirled the cuttings in the soapy water for a bit. --- Opened the jar containing the 10% bleach solution. --- Using clean tweezers, --- Took each cutting out of the RO water and carefully submerged it into the beaker of 70% isopropyl alcohol for about 30 seconds. --- Then transferred the cutting from the isopropyl alcohol straight into the jar of bleach solution. --- Once both cuttings were in the jar, sealed the top with the polypropylene lid. - [18:23]: Flipped and set the entire bleach jar upside down onto the magnetic stirrer. --- Started using the magnetic stirrer. --- But the cuttings were getting hit by the bar so ended up turning the unit OFF. --- Instead, made sure to swirled the bottle every few minutes to agitate the cuttings. --- For a proper sterilization, the cuttings should be agitated in the hypochlorite (bleach) solution for at least 20 minutes. --- While waiting for the explants to sterilize, prepped the still air box. - [18:39]: Unfolded and placed a Safloga still-air box onto my desk. --- Thoroughly misted the inside of the air box with 70% isopropyl alcohol making sure to coat the entire chamber. --- Then isopropyl misted and placed the following items inside of the still air box, ------ x1 » Jar of Establishment Media ------ x1 » Bottle of Establishment Media ------ x1 » Glass-Bead Sterilizer ------ x1 » Roll of Plastic Wrap [pre-cut] ------ x1 » Sterilization Bag Containing: --------- x3 » Stainless Steel Forceps --------- x3 » Stainless Steel Scissors --- Made sure to fully coat the outside of the tool bag and each of the containers with 70% alcohol. --- The bag had a torn corner (Oops), so made sure to spray the inside with a few mists of isopropyl alcohol. --- For the glass-bead sterilizer, ------ Wiped the entire unit with isopropyl alcohol. ------ Before filling the unit with the included beads, misted the heating chamber with a spray of isopropyl alcohol. ------ Misted the glass beads again with a spray of isopropyl alcohol. --- Set the cleaned glass-bead sterilizer into the still air box. - [19:02]: Still air box fully prepped for explants! --- Okay! Explant nodal sterilization complete! --- While still wearing gloves, --- Misted the outside of the explant jar with 70% isopropyl alcohol before placing it into the still-air box. --- Turned the glass-bead sterilizer ON. --- Made sure to re-seal the chamber. - [19:05]: Okay! Finally time to start the tissue culture transplant! --- Let's go Ensign! --- Sprayed my gloved hands with 70% isopropyl alcohol (also put on a pair of cloth arm sleeves), --- Placed my hands through the arm holes and into the still air box to begin the process. --- Started by laying out my initial workspace: ------ » Far Left Quadrant » Jar of Sterile Establishment Media ------ » Far Center » Bottle of Sterile Establishment Media ------ » Far Right Quadrant » Glass-Bead Sterilizer ------ » Mid Center » Bleach Jar with Explant Cuttings [Main Workspace] ------ » Near Left Quadrant » Empty [Trash Area] ------ » Near Right Quadrant » Bag of Sterile Tools & Roll of Plastic Wrap --- Opened the bag of tools and placed the forceps and scissors into the pre-heated glass-bead sterilizer. --- Set the bag in the trash area (near left quadrant). --- Loosened the lids of both containers of sterile media but did not remove the lids. The lids were resting on top and could easily be lifted. --- Also took lid off of the bleach jar and gently set it on the table. --- Took the jar of sterile media and set it in the center of my workspace (to the right of the bleach jar). --- Using my left hand, took a set of scissors from the glass-bead sterilizer and gently cut the bottom of the first cutting. --- Once the bottom cut was made, placed the scissors back into the glass-bead sterilizer. --- Using my left hand, lifted the lid off of the jar of sterile media and inserted the trimmed end of the cutting straight into the growth media (using my right hand). --- Covered the jar with the lid and placed the forceps back into the glass-bead sterilizer. --- Tighten the lid of the jar and set it aside. ------ [ » REPEATED THE ABOVE PROCESS FOR THE BOTTLE OF GROWTH MEDIA « ] --- Once the last cutting was transferred from the bleach jar into the sterile media, --- Turned the glass-bead sterilizer OFF. --- Cleaned up my workplace and placed the scrap stem tips and bleach jar out of the way (near left quadrant). - [19:28]: Wrapped the lid of each explant container with plastic wrap before setting it in the center of the workspace. --- Explant transplant completed! - [19:59]: Using a label printer (Brother DT410), made a set of labels for each container: ------ Heady OG BX1 #1 | 04.24.25 | Photo | Reg ------ Formula: v0001 | ExBatch: 0002 | Lot: 01 | Pod: 01 ------ Establishment Media | Sealed On: 10/18/25 --- Opened the still air box. --- Then one container at a time, took an explant out and wrapped the lid with a label. --- Set the labeled containers onto the propagation tray (in the 3x3 veg tent). - [20:07]: Done! ------ The explants are around 37 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 2.40 mol/m²/d under an 18/6 light cycle. --- Will check daily for contamination. --- Ca-Caw!! Ahh yea! --- Heady OG BX1 is now officially my first true attempt at cannabis tissue culture! --- Using this new workflow, I may try reusing the TKO media. Do plan to take new cuttings soon. May even try using the liquid media. --- Shout out to microclone and Bill Graham! His 'Tissueponics' video contains tips and tricks of the trade that have straight up changed the way I think of DIY cannabis tissue culture. --- Plan to further refine my process and will continue to refine the workflow with each attempt. - [20:15]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 54% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 34% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 35% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 55% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 43% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - TKO] ------ 48% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 42% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 45% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [20:56]: Checked the 4x4 tent. --- Ca-Caw!
