Plant is 21 cm high because of low stress training. The length of the stem is 34 cm. Day 43 ☁️🌧️☁️🌧️⛈️ 14 - 17 degrees, humidity is about 72 % I prepared some simple comfrey manure for the next weeks of flowering. It‘s rich in silica and tannins and essential minerals. Mostly all fruit vegetables and flowers like it, so Tropicana will have it as a tee or head fertilization, as well as in her water mixed 1:20 and 1:5. Same procedure like with tomatoes or peppers. No watering in the next days. The soil is soaked with rainwater. The growth is a bit slow in the last cold and rainy days but the flowers look nice.😊 Day 44 ☁️☁️🌥️☁️🌥️ 14-20 degrees and humidity is around 64 % Day 45 ⛅️☁️🌧️☁️🌧️ 13-21 degrees and humidity is around 69 % The flowers started to stack. The soil is too moist but I can‘t change here a lot. Don’t need too water in the neuerer Future and aafe water for late summer. Think when I can drink my next relax tee - take same leafs. Now Tropicana needs all of them for transpiration. Heavy pots. Too wet springtime. 🌧️☔️ Day 46 ☁️🌥️⛅️🌤️ 13-19 degrees, humidity is falling. Windy. The flowers are stacking up. 🐞🐞 did their job and left. With them the mites disappeared (hide). But I found some eggs under the leafs off all three of my cannabis plants. So I will have an eye on this… balcony problem! Wait some more days and bring a couple of 🐞 again. Found some magnifying glass and it suits with my camera lens. Day 47 🌤️☀️🌤️ 11-22 degrees, humidity 89 % and getting even higher this night. Took out two leafs. Day 48 🌤️🌤️🌤️ 17-23 degrees, humidity 89-43%, falling! Tropicana got a liquid breakfast this morning made out of two liter rainwater with 20% ready comfrey manure which is rich in silica and tannins and essential minerals. Be careful with liquid manure as you should have experience in giving high doses. Never more then 20% of the watering on moist soil and never give it pure and after the water. It will burn the roots. This is very fresh, only one week old and not too concentrated. Next week I will give maybe 10%. So, we just enjoy a sunny morning with a healthy breakfast and coffee! 😊 Day 49 ⛅️☁️🌥️ 10-20 degrees and humidity is 91%. Tropicana got thirsty. She drinks more, 0-5-0,75 liters rainwater. I will never use black pots again, too warm soil on the sunny side and the water evaporates faster. I‘m quit lucky with my new hobby and with my beautiful Tropicana. Time for a relax tee. Took some leafs off plant no. two and three.

🌿 White Widow – Week 5 Flower (12/12 from Seed) This week marks a very special stage in the journey of our legendary White Widow. She’s fully into flower mode now, and what a sight she is. Her structure remains compact and elegant, but her buds are bulking beautifully. The trichomes are already covering her in a frosty layer, and her pistils stand out with those iconic, vibrant white hairs that give her such presence. Her leaves are a deep, rich green, almost darker than the sisters around her. This makes me wonder if she might show us some darker expressions as the weeks progress. It’s one of those fascinating mysteries of White Widow, you never really know until she decides to reveal it. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition This week’s recipe combines Plagron and Aptus inputs, working hand in hand: • Plagron • Power Buds → flower formation boost • Sugar Royal → metabolism & terpene support • Green Sensation → bulking, quality, and finishing power • Aptus • All-in-One Liquid → full-spectrum base feed • CalMag Boost → structural support & deficiency prevention • Regulator → stress resistance & nutrient uptake enhancer 💡 Even though the super soil is reading around 5.75 NPK and already contains nutrients, we’re boosting her further because this girl is on a 12/12 (11/13) from seed shuttle. Her timeline is faster, so we want to see how far she can go and what she can take without stress. This is a balancing act, pushing her potential while respecting her limits. ⸻ ⚖️ 12/12 from Seed vs. Normal Veg + Flower Cycle For those joining now, here’s why White Widow looks the way she does: • Normal Cycle (Veg + Flower): • Weeks of 18/6 light first → plants grow tall, with big root systems. • 12/12 flip triggers stretch → often 2–3× size increase. • 12/12 (or 11/13) from Seed: • No long veg phase → plant stays smaller and more compact. • Buds start forming early → less size, but quicker cycles. • Ideal for experiments, time-saving, or small grows. 👉 Our White Widow is a prime example: compact frame, dense cola, side branches forming golf-ball buds. Small in stature, but already showing big personality. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temperature: ~28–30°C • Humidity: ~57–60% • VPD: ~1.3–1.9 kPa • Light: Balanced spectrum & PPFD, designed for resin production & compact growth She has stayed stress-free despite the warm climate, showing her resilience. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and Not to Expect) Expect: • Buds bulking even further, stacking on that main cola and side branches. • Trichomes and frost building up week after week. • Aromas starting to get stronger as resin production increases. Not to Expect: • Major vertical stretch → she has chosen her form and will stay compact. • Quick finish → White Widow is a classic that takes her time to do things right. ⸻ 🗓️ Timeline Recap – From Seed to Week 5 Flower • Week 1: Germination → mistakes with the heat mat, but one strong survivor carried the torch. • Week 2: Settled into soil, fed gently while super soil activated. • Week 3: Compact growth, strong nodes, and healthy green structure. • Week 4: Transition into flower → bud sites forming, frost beginning. • Week 5 (Now): Full flower mode → trichomes sparkling, pistils shining, cola building beautifully. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude & Community • 🌱 Huge thanks to Zamnesia for these legendary genetics. • 💧 Appreciation to Aptus and Plagron for powering this run with balanced nutrition. • 💡 Shout-out to the gear teams supporting the light and control setup. • ❤️ And, as always, gratitude to you — the community. The lovers, the haters, the readers, the silent ones, and the ones who leave a word.

This grow was pretty simple ! They went a total of 103 days from seed! Very trichomy dense buds with the smell of Berries vanilla and skunk ! This is a must try for you all Fastbuds has the greats!!!

I LIKE TO PLANT DIRECTLY IN SOIL. LESS I HANDLE THE BEANS THE BETTER. KEEP IT SIMPLE. SHOULD HAVE STARTED EARLIER THIS MONTH. BUT THE NIGHTS WERE STILL GETTING BELOW 60S, SO I WAS WAITING. THESE SHOULD BE DONE 8-10 WEEKS ANYWAY. SO BY EARLY AUG SHOULD BE DONE, WHICH IS STILL FULL SUN. 1/2 LST, 1/2 NO TRAINING. I'VE GROWN PLENTY OUTDOORS AND AUTOS ARE THE EASIEST. IF YOU LIVE IN SOCAL GET A PACK OF FASTBUDS AND START GROWING YOUR OWN OUTDOORS. HARVEST THE SUN. JUST NEED A 3-5 GAL POT, ORGANIC SOIL AND WATER. NOTHING FANCY.

Gush Mintz clone

Lowered the PPMs to 420 😎 Only added base nutrients. Her buds are still creating lots of resin and are getting thicker. Ripening nice with an elegant aroma of sweet citrus. I can’t wait to try her out soon! Next week will be her flush week, then time to harvest! I had to use zip ties on some of the bud sites due to how heavy they are. Next grow- definitely Doing LST right and different hydro set up. DWC is a great learning curve for hydroponics, but what a pain in the tush every week for feeding. Bottom line- I’m loving what I’m learning and I’m having fun doing it! 💜

Hello guys, well so the girl is not pretty but not ugly, i do not know fi in the end recovered or not, but she small buds are growing. I can not feed it with nutrients, because the leaves goin down ( like to much water ). I Imagine it will bé the mix of substrate with a worm Humus, with carries Nutrient to spare. Can not see problems in the leaves. I Don’t know, we will see

Week 12 Update — Gorilla Zkittlez Auto (FastBuds) Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms Medium: Scientetics Coco Stage: Late Flower / Ripening Status: Days from harvest ⸻ Overall Plant Status Week 12 marks the final stretch before harvest. Nutrient uptake has noticeably slowed, which is expected at this stage as the plant shifts energy away from vegetative processes and into final resin and terpene development. Trichomes are almost entirely cloudy, with harvest planned once approximately 15–20% amber is reached. Natural senescence has begun, with leaf fade becoming visible. Buds are fully formed, swollen, and resin production appears to be peaking. ⸻ Feed & Maintenance Log (Final Week) 12/6 — Late Flower Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.0 | 600 ppm • 4 ml Green Sensation • 0.5 ml Silicium Bloom • 18 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 6 ml Photo+ • ½ tsp Recharge Purpose at this stage: • Green Sensation: Low-dose PK and carbohydrate source to support final bud density and resin production without pushing excess nutrients. • Silicium Bloom: Maintains cell wall strength and stress resistance late into flower. • Coco B: Provides potassium-heavy nutrition to support terpene production and final swelling. • Pure Zym: Breaks down dead root matter, keeping the root zone clean as uptake slows. • Ruby Fulvic: Improves micronutrient transport and overall nutrient efficiency. • Photo+: Enhances photosynthesis efficiency during peak resin production. • Recharge: Supports microbial life to keep nutrient availability high despite reduced feeding. ⸻ 12/7 — Maintenance & Reset • Mild defoliation • Reservoir cleaned and remaining solution dumped Fresh mix: 1 gal RO | pH 6.1 | 500 ppm • 2 ml Green Sensation • 14 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Reduced EC to match slowing uptake. • Focused on potassium, enzyme activity, and nutrient mobility rather than growth. ⸻ 12/8 — Observation • Senescence becoming visible • Lower leaves beginning to fade naturally This is a healthy sign of nutrient drawdown and internal remobilization late in flower. ⸻ 12/9 — Reduced Uptake Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.2 | 366 ppm • 2 ml Green Sensation • 12 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Further reduction in nutrient strength to avoid salt buildup. • Supporting resin maturation rather than biomass growth. ⸻ 12/11 — Ripening Additives 1 gal RO | pH & ppm not measured • 10 ml Winter Frost • 5 ml Car-Bou-Naria • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Winter Frost: Signals the plant to finish strong by accelerating ripening, resin production, and terpene expression. • Car-Bou-Naria: Provides readily available carbohydrates to fuel final metabolic processes without adding nitrogen. • Ruby Fulvic: Maintains nutrient mobility even with minimal feeding. ⸻ 12/12 — Final Low-EC Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.0 | 255 ppm • 10 ml Winter Frost • 5 ml Car-Bou-Naria • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 4 ml Pure Zym Purpose at this stage: • Extremely light feeding to support ripening while allowing the plant to finish clean. • Encourages full terpene and cannabinoid expression without pushing nutrients. ⸻ Harvest Outlook • Trichomes: Nearly 100% cloudy • Target harvest: 15–20% amber • Plant is in full ripening mode with minimal nutrient demand • Senescence progressing naturally This run is finishing exactly how a dialed-in coco grow should — controlled fade, clean root zone, and intentional nutrient tapering leading into harvest.

This strain is one of my favourite to grow I'm addicted to the flavour and how fast she grows.. The team at @fastbuds have been very generous towards me and I'm happy to be growing out there strains ... She is healthy and will be growing a lot by next week cheers

So week 5 of flower done. I didn't get to spend as much time as I needed with them this week and barely got 4 feeds in. They get a ltr or 2 of water in between or the res will be dry so they're drinking nicely. She has stopped stretching so hopefully it's all stacking from now. Waiting on a loupe so I can tell when to harvest because I think I harvested her mum too early being my first plant. Took some of the leaves off that were shading other budsites and adjusted some of the lst later in the week but she seems happy enough. She is still outside even though we've had some rain, I'm sure I've managed to get her under cover most times.

🍬

She stinks so much 😅 Can't wait to try her 👌

12/21 - Swapping lights tonight - running the QB3000 Sunraise (300w) FULL SPEC - adding 11 more plants into my 3x3 bringing the total to 17 clones - micro dosing will proceed as normal 😎😎😎😎😎😎

What up fam, weekly update on these gorgeous girls. They're showing preflowers now which I'm definitely happy as that means the stretch is almost over. Now time to see them fatten up. I got two definitive phenos, one that's way more bushy and the other is way taller. Over all I couldn't be happier with how they've grown. Happy

Hey Growers, End of week 3 from seed :) - From the start of the grow Ive been experiencing small issues with plant #2 but everyday I learn new things and try to figure out what she wants and try to adapt to it. looks like its working slowly. 1st time of transplanting, it was a success. 1st week of nutrients, I will feed 1/3 to start

Roughly at about 4.5 week I have turned the lights to 12/12 most of the flowers have shown sex with roughly about 60% being females, not a bad % of females, could have been a lot worse. The ICC’s are a bit stretchy & the cookies are quite squat and the bubblegum & black nitro’s are average size for the age.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la sexta y ultima semana de crecimiento de estas Lemonpaya feminizadas de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros que además provocó un shock que también solucione. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨
