Buds
Not an official update, but my Purple Punch is now curing comfortably in her glass jar. (Final photos on post #569 on page 57.) She was not as tall nor as deeply colored as some of the spectacular versions others have done here, but she was a treat to grow and trim, and I can tell from the bud structure and smell that she'll be some mighty fine medicine. :biggrin: That still leaves my two Strawberry Bananas to harvest. Here's a dry bud shot of the Purple Punch.
Final statistics on her: days from sprout to harvest: 73, height: 16.5" (42 cm), yield: 1 oz (29 gr)

Harvest
Update #12: @Mañ'O'Green @Fast Buds Heather
Day 85, time to harvest the first of my two Strawberry Bananas

Here are two together. #1 is taller and a bit more mature in terms of trichome coloring. So we'll chop her first at 19" (48.3 cm).

shame aswell because the calyx where just starting to swell she was a strange plant very leafy even though I almost cut veg nutes completely start of flower around week 4 - 5 when trimming her most of the sugar leaves were just single blade leaves don't know if its down to her trying to reveg or just a unlucky pheno with a strong ruderalls trait

Forbidden Runtz has dried and is in the jars curing the buds are super dense but due to the hot weather they have dried out quite fast she still has a nice smell and the smoke unreal thanks @Fast Buds Heather definitely growing this again not sure of the weigh as I have been smoking it non stop due to using strawberry banana 1 for edibles since I Burned all my saved trim and pop corn nugs when decarbing to make butter

just a quick update on these three beauts been dealing with thrips in this space it has to be the soil because they were dealt with and came back, that's my best guess anyways. Anyhow I had another plant stolen and got caught up with the search for it as I thought I knew who took it but I'll keep more regular posts for these three as I hope for them to take off shortly here.
 
Fast Buds Pineapple Express Day 77 49th day of flower. These girls are nearing the finish line!! Will finish out the reservoir I have mixed with nutrients then switch to plain water for a couple days. This has definitely been a fun easy grow. My first time growing Fast Buds, first time growing in coco and only my 3rd grow setup period. Will definitely be growing in coco again and have a few more Fast Buds strains to try out! Thanks for letting me share along!

Final Update- Day 91

Both plants have dried and have now had some cure time.
Im curing the straw ban in a couple glass jars and the mim cake1 in a grove bag.
I desperately need new scales, I’m still using a small digital kitchen scale and that is no fun lol but I’ve got my final weights and I’m super stoked.
59g from mim cake1.
64g from straw ban.
im over the moon.
I am also very pleased to be back on track, I’ve got enough to smoke on from one of the last plants I had done that I can let these gals set and cure up some more.
currently straw ban smells like a sickly sweet smoothie made out of banana/berry and dank weed.
Mim cake1 has lost all the sweetness and straight up smells like a citrus champagne. The wifey even remarked that it smelled “fizzy” lol.
Thanks again to Fast Buds for letting me and everyone else here run their genetics for the Grow and Show, ‘‘twas fun and there’s lots of beautiful weeds to gaze at!

Don’t know what it is about growing outdoors, but for some reason I have much better luck with keeping them healthy. Obviously you can’t beat the quality of sunlight, but it may also be that I’m not tinkering as much with my nutrients. Very simple feeds with plain water and rain mixed in there. But so far this strain has been a pleasure to grow.

Anywho, we’re on Day 51 for the Mimosa Cake. You can also see a bit of a Sweet Seeds Black Cream Auto flowering in the foreground. Great side branching, depending on how she fills out I may need to do some bracing with bamboo, but we shall see.
