Week 3 Marvels: Cherry Cola Auto's Green Symphony Continues Hi guys! Our botanical voyage with the Cherry Cola Auto from Fast Buds Seeds is evolving into a mesmerizing saga. As we delve into Week 3, the green marvel not only thrives but astonishes with newfound vigor. Strap in for another week of horticultural revelations! Our Cherry Cola Auto, now comfortably settled in the 16L fabric pot, has gracefully embraced the Lumatek 465W Zeus Compact Pro LED in its new tent. The transition was seamless, and the plant basks in the orchestrated light, akin to a botanical ballet. In a daring twist, I decided to break from tradition and venture into uncharted territory for autos - topping! With gentle fingers and utmost care, I executed a precise pinch at the top. The result? A beautifully topped Cherry Cola Auto, standing tall and proud. Topping involves removing the apical meristem, redirecting growth hormones, and promoting bushier lateral growth. It's like giving our plant a new set of directions for an intricate dance of foliage. But the surprises don't end there. This week, I introduced the art of bending to our green companion. Picture this: the plant, pliable and eager, responding to a gentle coaxing of its branches. Bending not only shapes the plant but also enhances light exposure to lower branches, ensuring an even canopy. It's like crafting a botanical masterpiece with nature as the artist. As promised, I've captured the essence of my Aptus Holland watering mix in a visual delight. Check out the accompanying video for a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the meticulous concoction. This nutrient-rich elixir, featuring Regulator, caMg-boost, All in One and Start Booster, is the lifeblood of our Cherry Cola Auto's thriving existence. As we conclude this Week 3 saga, the Cherry Cola Auto stands as a testament to the endless possibilities of cultivation. To Fast Buds Seeds, Aptus Holland, and the entire green community, your support fuels this vibrant journey. Here's to another week of green marvels, topped triumphs, and bendable beauties. Until next time, keep growing, keep experimenting, and let the green symphony play on!

Was worried about mostly cloudy trichomes on week 4 already, but upon further research it seems trainwreck keeps cloudy trichs for a very long time. Excited for week 5 weight.

At the end of this week we got to put these ladies outside to finish out the summer; finally! They have made a large jump in height; but we low stress trained them all down, now that they have ample space to do so. I had an accident with one of the plants while LST and ripped the main trunk a little bit at the topped knot, we repaired the rip with para film immediately; she seems to be recovering well, barely skipped a beat so far. We continued to water with ancient earth every watering, and I gave them a foliar spray of gaia green soluble seaweed extract the morning after their first night outside. They are acclimating well to their new permanent outdoor home. ☀️

Honey Cream is almost ready (Aiming for 15% amber trichomes), another week or two and the first tops will come out. The smell is very pleasant, a bubble gum, sweet and almost ripe berry smells, very intoxicant ! Power flower is stacking nicely, but still with no smell, very frosty too. Special queen #1 is also doing amazingly, specially being in a pot, 2.25m and stacking EVERYWHERE ! The smell reminds me of an amnesia haze, very pungent on the nose ! Old Lemongrass is doing a little bit worse, her leaves yellowed a lot, but hopefully it will get fixed by next week. Trichome production is considerably slower than all the other strains, but she is stacking for sure. Smells of a very pleasant sweet lemon.

Day 11: We have: 3x White Widow 1x Critical 2x Special Queen #1 1x Special Kush #1 Important: The method used "jiffy" is efficient and fast but in another possible germination I will definitely do the "paper towel" method first. It is important to note that for good germination, the seeds must have as little soil as possible on top, where I delayed by 1 week due to the fact that the seed was very deep in a jiffy. I reduced the distance of the LED from 60cm to 30cm because we still have plants that are stretching too much so this was the measure adopted awaiting results. For 8 pots of 0.5L, 500ml of pure water containing: 1ml Voodoo Juice 1ml Sensi Grow A+B (2ml total) 1ml B52 2ml CalMag The net proportion was satisfactory.

Absolutely love this strain

Good week this week. She over doubled her height!! 😎 Now 31cm tall.

She has already tripled in size during stretch and is still going in getting pretty excited about this pheno … My own blended recycled living soil water passion love & respect only. ...... added soil biology includes Wallace wonder organics myco fungi .. extreme gardening AZOS ... and synergro ... along with my own farmed castings also inoculated 500wQB running at 300w

At Breadandbuds we have never underestimated F1s and here we have a great example of why: Do Si Dos F1 Hybrid Automatic. We have two plants that you can find compared at the end of the photo gallery of this diary, one left to grow straight that will be harvested tonight and you can find described in this diary and the other worked with a mainiling that made it bonsai style that will be harvested in about 10 days. THIS IS THE HARVEST DAY FOR PLANT 1 the one not worked with techniques. The characteristic of F1 plants small and fast flowering (on average) is found in this strain grown in winter () I'm sure that in autumn I can do something bigger) They are both very beautiful, resinous and fast, the one worked with the techniques has the natural delay due precisely to this type of work. This plant collected in particular has a height anot very great but it really has all the little things in their place we really want to taste it as soon as possible. It was all in an intensive flush, we both arrived a little too full and so we planted with the basic fi fertilizers girls.

This is a giant autoflower that reaches 150cm and produces massive yields of up to 600gr/m2, a modern Cali strain that offers what a top-quality Indica-dominant hybrid should; nugs capped in resin with the density you would expect from Indica-dominant strains and that bag appeal that will surprise even the most experienced growers. Expect beautiful purple and magenta hues that come along with a sweet almost pastry-like taste and, thanks to the 24% THC, a very pleasant and potent effect that surprisingly starts as a motivating high and in no time relaxes you completely, taking a bit of the energetic edge off.

Its end of 7 week of flowering..from now on I wiil give them flawless finish 1 week to flash all nutritons from soil, and few days only water. Buds are amazing.for me Chiquita Banana smell most beutifull but we will see in the smoke report

02/12/21 The plants are really coming along well - one plant may be a male (see photos for the tall and skinny one) need to consider removing this tomorrow it is affecting the lighting of the plants in its pod because it is so tall the light needs to be higher. Lights at 80% and hung 20 inches away in general. 1ml Biogrow and 2ml Bio Heaven every other day.

📋Summary of previous week Previous week, the plants grew steadily under a 21-hour light schedule, with the lamp at 80cm and dimming adjusted from 55% to 60%. The average temperature was 20.5°C and humidity 72%. Watering included 300ml per plant with Bio Rhizotonic on 21/02, a light misting on 23/02, and 1L of bottom watering on 24/02, and another 300ml of plain water on 26/02. Overall, a smooth week with good development! 📈 🌱Heights at the beginning and at the end of the previous week: -#R01: 15cm - 19,5cm = +4,5cm -#R02: 10cm - 12cm = +2cm -#R03: 7cm - 10,5cm = +3,5cm (#R03 Backup Seed, 5Days Behind) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 3️⃣Week Vegetation: 28/02 - 07/03 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 80cm ⚡ Dimming: 65% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 72% 🌱Height: - #R01: 19,5 cm - #R02: 12 cm - #R03: 10,5 cm (Backup Seed, 5Days Behind) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #28/02/2025 Today, I only moistened the surface. Tomorrow, I’ll probably do a proper watering. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #01/03/2025 I bottom-watered with 500ml of water and added 300ml around each plant. 💧 --------------------------------------------------------------------- #03/03/2025 Today, I diluted 10g of Bactomatik Rex by Agrobacterias in 4L of water and watered the three girls. Approximately 1.3L per plant 💦 This will probably be the last watering, I'll just use a spray to keep the surface moist for the rest of the week. 💚 #Bactomatik Rex by Agrobacterias # #COMPOSITION -N-2% -P-1% -k-2.5% -Amino acids: 10% -Organic matter: 35% -Paenibacillus azotoformans, Bacillus azotofixans, B. coagulans, B. megaterium, LactobacillusLus acidophilus, B. pumilus y Sacharomyces cerevisiae. --------------------------------------------------------------------- #05/03/2025 I'm facing some issues—before the last watering, the plants started showing yellowing on the leaves of the new branches. I believe I prepared the SuperSoil layer too hot, and as the roots reached the over-fertilized layer, they got affected. Some suggestions pointed to a nitrogen deficiency, but I don’t think that’s the case. I applied a good watering with Bactomatik, which contains 2% nitrogen and nitrogen-fixing bacteria. This was already a planned watering, and while the plant started stretching a bit, I haven’t noticed any improvements in leaf coloration yet. I’ll keep monitoring closely to see how it recovers. But If anyone has a suggestion pointing in a different direction, I'm here to listen! 👂 Over the next two days, I’ll start with LST, so that within 1-2 weeks, I can set up the SCROG net.
