420 Fastbuds Gelato Auto Week 5 Hello fellow growmie's hope all is good in the grow world. This week it's been fun deciding to defoliate and lollipoping them before they transition to flower. Still no preflower sites so excited to see these girls grow. I have since sprout sprayed once a week 50ml per gallon of PureCrop1 and it has proven up to the hype as a top contender for preventive maintenance and pest control. I haven't done anything to special so I'd say an easy strain to grow for any level as it seems. All in all Happy Growing

Just waiting for the change in development to put these girls in darkness!

FBA 2025 turned Frostbanger was a fun grow in many ways. First, my friend gifted me the seed and I grew outside while she grew inside. It was fun to watch the plants grow in different settings and different growing methods. If you have been following me, then you know our weather has been crazy here. We have had lows of 50* and highs of 90*. We had a hail storm and lots and lots of rain. Today, I was. forced to take my Frostbanger down. I found a couple of buds rotting and it is supposed to rain for the next 4 days, so this grow has come to an end. But first, true to Frostbanger's description, "Just keep in mind, this strain’s dank, pungent odor is super strong—meaning a carbon filter is a must to mask the aroma in any grow room and she’ll make her presence known when grown outside" and boy did my backyard smell. Also, just like its name, it is a "trichome-studded beauty." Sticky, sticky, sticky. It also had a nice fruity smell, almost like a cantaloup. I like to wet trim, so I spent the past 2 days trimming. My wet bud weight is 102.19 ounces. Not A big harvest. Had to throw away some bud rot and I had to take this plant down early --But that is how a hail storm, cold weather, hot weather, Rain and more rain will effect a harvest. I'm happy to be somewhat successful. FYI: today's weather: It has rained 2.05 inches in the past 24 hours and expecting 1.6 inches in the next 24 hours.. I am pretty proud of Frostbanger's cola as it is 10 inches long and approximately 9 inches around. Wish I could have seen it with 2 more weeks of growth. I may not have the growing experience of others, but I am super happy with this grow and glad I could enter a contest. It was fun!

Aloha Freunde, bei meinen Damen wird es immer gemütlicher. Die Mulchschicht sollte von Anfang an drauf aber besser spät als nie. In der Erde von Sonnenerde ist schon viel los aber Ich gieße hin und wieder mit effektiven Mikroorganismen von Tria Terra um das Bodenleben schneller in Schwung zu bekommen. Trauermücken gehören zur gesunden Erde irgendwie dazu aber in so einem Setup wollen wir die kleinen Mücken nicht haben. Die Lösung: Gleich von Anfang an mit SF-Nematoden gießen. Die gibt es im Baumarkt auf Bestellung oder gleich Online suchen. Liebe

Some kind of deficiency going on. Threw some organic nutes at it and good ol cal mag plus. Trimmed those nasty leaves. She looks better, time will tell.

Took well to the super cropping. Starting to bud up nicely.

End of Week 13 (6 week of flower) Cruise control on! Trying to make sure the environment is 100% in check, and I made a very light compost tea with some molasses and worm castings and a little bit of bone meal just to give them a calcium boost and some extra sugars so they can flourish into their final couple of weeks of flower. I have been keeping a cooler average temperature - and also keeping the relative humidity lower. Pest Report: None

Pretty solid week, raised the light and cut back on some watering, they really started to grow since the change. Started some lst training as well so wish me luck

To be honest overall this strain done good so as the others. Reflecting back on how i started with just a tent and light, and slowly buying the fans and filters whiles the plants were growing. But i did want these plants to grow naturally without topping and Low Stress Training. I regret not removing the lower branches becuase i did get alot of small airy buds down there. But it was all trial and error. All i done was remove some fan leaves when good to do so every now and then. Not on a mad level tho, i did have alot of sugar leaves which i will be making some stuff with! At veg the plants had deficiencies due to out of date Biobizz bottles. But that got sorted with the magic of Algimac and Calmag. Overall Next time I will definitely train the plants and maybe top a few. Final Yield: Plant #1 21.88 Grams Plant #2 33.36 Grams Plant #3 56.06 Grams Which yield exactly 110 grams! Ounces come out very fat with these light buds Not bad for the conditions they were brought up in, and with no training! Thanks for everyone who has followed this diary throught out the journey! I hope this diary will help people out. And thank you to Seedstockers for very cheap and quality seeds. And special thanks for the GrowDiaries Team for providing the best platform for growing journals! I couldnt explain how much this Diary helped me. Its like a dream come true finding a site like this! And if you do see this message, i would love to see a Iphone app coming soon! Kind Regards! One love!

Day 77 - She's doing her thing this week. Pushing out trichomes. Looking good though! 😎

Day 49 of flower. The cookies is doing well, the smell is very fruity, lights now are set 11 on 13 off. Next week maybe i will start the flush.

This week is dedicated to finalizing the pot and nutrients for the rest of the lifecycle, looks like it took to the nutrients very well not much new upwards growth but new leaf sites appeared!

Doing great. Bottoms cleaned, waiting for a day or two to do a major defoliation. 17.11 Vast defoliation. All the bottom leaves and mids. Left around 4 top fan leaves On every branch. 19.11 Plants recovered perfectly, light is back to 100% . Unfortunately my Bluetooth app for mars hydro stopped working. Light cannot pair anymore with the app. Also irrigation is changed to vegetative crop steering.

***Note that I started to count the days when I placed the seeds between paper towels. The seeds were planted 3 days later and sprouted from the ground 2 days after being planted. D80 (13/05/2021): I'm looking at the trichomes every other days. Glue Gelato is starting to show amber on top buds. No amber for Banana Kush and Gelato. This time I will chop them all at the same time so the one I will rely on is the Glue Gelato. As soon as she is ready, I will harvest them all. Banana Kush and Gelato would probably need more, but in term of logistic, I need to harvest all my plants at the same time. D83 (16/05/2021): Not ready yet. I'm checking trichomes closely! 😬 - Light: the lights are at 100% and at 12 inch form the plants. - Temperature: during the day: 24-25C ; during the night: 20C. - Humidity: the humidity is maintain around 46-48% all the time. - Air circulation: There is an oscillating fan on the ground, one fixed fan pointing on top of the canopy and one fixed fan to help cool the lights. - Water: I gave water every other day or when the ground feel dry or the pots feels light. - ***IPM: I never mention it but I'm using nematodes pouch as an integrated pest management. I had trouble with pest in my first grow and I learned from it. That's the only thing I do for pest and of course watching closely and regularly at my plants 😊

Used too much bloom nutes and some top leaves were starting to yellow so I flushed and have Been gentle since Few days later it was t from nutrients it could actually use a little more the lights I have were putting 1700-1800 ppfd on top canopy and was cooking my leaves I lowered the plant so it would get 1200 ppfd on top and it’s back to normal

Not doin very well. Foliared it with GH synthetic and gave it calmag 2 days ago. The fim didnt take so i topped it. Growing slow not sure what else is there other plants in solos i got look greener. Removed then affected fan leaves. @Seedsman CBD CNC is doin killer. I picked 1/2 fem moms. Other ill grow on window sill for fun.

Sta esplodendo si iniziano a definire le prime cimette. Inizia a emanare anche un buon profumo molto fruttato, per fortuna esistono i filtri ai carboni attivi. Ora sta solo ad aspettare dopo le carenze iniziali si e ripresa alla grande vedremo in futuro che succederà. Dajeforte growes

Esta cepa es fenomenal, la saqué a exterior en la última semana y media para aumentar sus terpenos y minimizar la degradación con solo 3 horas de luz directa, 7° C noches y días de 15° C ; me recuerda mucho a Critical Bilbo, un aroma dulce, intenso y muchísimas ventajas de parte de la genética: Resistencia a plagas, podas violentas y entrenamientos de cualquier tipo. Fácil de obtener esquejes y mucha producción de resina 🤤💐. Me encanta esta cepa en exteriores pero en interior ha mostrado ser más que apta, sólo al final de su etapa ha mostrado algunas flores macho pero creo que es causa del estrés por las bajas temperaturas en sus últimas 2 semanas. Saludos a todos y muchas gracias por pasar a ver los diarios ☺️
