Week 4 Flower (11/24 - 11/30): Well, well, well... This was the week of thanksgiving and both of the kids parents were out of the state! We had to call in uncle Marcus to come and tend to them. We set him up with the second batch of tea on 11/18 (I'm sure I've given them like at least 4-7 batches of tea so far even though the feeding instructions said start during week 3...) but honestly, I feel like it was a good decision. The canopy isn't as leveled as I would like it to be, butttt there are ton's of bud sites coming up. I did a healthy defoliation (that honestly scared me).. but I think it was for the better removing any overlapping leaves, lower branches that were not receiving much light, and new branches below the top three nodes that were stretching to get light. The new branches were the hardest to remove, as it was hard to tell whether they could live on as new bud sites... but remembering that most of those were beneath the top of the canopy and that all energy is transferred energy.. guided our defoliation. We were home for exactly 24 hours between 11/17 and 12/1 and that is when we prepared another tea for the plants to get 11/27 from there they got one more watering of plain water before another tea to kick off week 5. The stretch is in full effect and they might get a little taller, but we can clearly see where the buds will be packing on weight soon.

Plant is growing well. Has weird black dots I think related to PH. I think the switch from whatever they had her on to living soil is just shocking her with the change in PH. I expect a recovery within the next week or so. I noticed an absolute ton of mites in the soil. They had to of come with the clone, does anyone know if these are beneficial? Been 12 days cooking the 3.0 top dress so I threw on two pounds of worms castings and transplanted. I also planted a ton of white Dutch clover seeds around the plant. Happy growing and god bless guys!

Day 49 - Have been having a bit of a high humidity problem in the tent but will be getting a new dehumidifier soon to keep that under control but over all these ladies are growing beautifully & seem to be very healthy! I am extremely impressed at how well they are doing with little to no nutrients, the buds are starting to get thicker & put on some frost! Make sure to check back for more updates, thanks for following & happy growing friends!🙏🏼✌️🏼🌱

Harvested on day 94 / flowering 61 21 Grams of buds after manicure and drying. ------------------------------------------------------------ 🎪Harvest report in my 1M² box with 16 plants (5 strains): Total 291 grams of dry, manicured buds. I set myself a goal of at least 300 grams. So I'm not entirely satisfied on this point. I think in the next grow I will use other techniques , like LST, topping and larger pots to try to improve my yield!✌️☮️ ------------------------------------------------------------ 🔥❄️Drying : In my 1M² box 8 Days in the dark Temperature : 14-18°C Humidity : 50-75% Extractor+ carbon filter ON 24/24h ------------------------------------------------------------ 📜Links : 🌱Zamnesia Gelato seeds : https://www.zamnesia.fr/5671-zamnesia-seeds-gelato-feminisee.html Food for your plants 🔥🔥👍 https://www.greenhousefeeding.com/ 👨‍🚀My Instagram 🌱❤️️: https://www.instagram.com/hou_stone420/ --------------------------------- ☮️Thanks for your visit ! 💚☮️

Eccoci di nuovo qui!!! Super eccitato per questa nuova collab con Sweet Seeds, team davvero al top, che mi ha dato l’opportunità di testare questa nuova genetica e di condividere i progressi con tutti voi!!! Non ci sono parole, volevo genetiche violacee ed eccomi accontentato!! Risultato molto interessante in dei vasi da 14l entrambe, hanno uno strato di resina clamoroso. Odore e sapore sono tropicali, un classico per le genetiche violacee, ho anche estratto il polline ed il fumo a prima compattazione era color viola!! Consigliata a tutti!! Grazie a tutti per il supporto ❤️🍀🔥

Week 3 Flower (Bloom Week 3) – Daily Tasks Evening (Lights On) Check environment (temp 24–27°C, RH 55–60%). Inspect leaves and buds for pests, mold, or deficiencies. Water/feed (depending on medium): balanced bloom nutrients with slightly higher P and K. Ensure good airflow (oscillating fans). Adjust plant training (light defoliation if leaves block bud sites). Check for early signs of stretch finishing. Evening (Before Lights Off) Ensure irrigation is not too late in the cycle to avoid wet medium during dark period. 👉 In Week 3 bloom, the plants are finishing their stretch and starting to put more energy into forming bud sites. Main job is: Setting Scrog net 2layers ,Control environment (VPD, airflow) ,Support the plant with bloom nutrients.

Refilled the Botaniums today, 7 days after the previous fill, as I saw they were completely empty. One of the plants is starting to show a tiny bit of weird coloring on some leaves and the texture of the leaves is also a bit strange. The other plant looks completely healthy.

Day 141 10/06/25 Tuesday Harvested the Orange Apricot Glue XL today! This run of autos I haven't done any dark period before harvest except, I managed to catch them just as lights were coming on. She has performed amazingly in consideration that she was only in a 2.5L pot. In hindsight, I now know I am able to do a SOG with small auto pots. Making for an exciting next run. Upon harvesting the OAG XL, The pungent smell of citrus, diesel and fruity twists is intoxicating. The buds are dense and compact, with formed calyx's boasting with trichomes. Wet weight on this was 427g of buds. (All wet trim gets dried in hangers and used for making butter later) To my suprise a super easer one to trim as she was mainly buds and fan leaves. She is now hanging drying in a 80x80 tent , with a small fan on low @ netted window entrance, facing down to circulate air from bottom to top. An exhausting fan with carbon filter also runs 2x a day for 1 hour. This lasted for 8days before humidity dropped to 49%. I have now put into containers to allow inner moisture to pull through now. After 3-4 more days she will have final trim and placed into Terp Loc Grove Bags to cure. Once curing I shall do a smoke report, dry bud weight, and update journal. Thank you to everyone who followed along for this one, the comments and support! GROWERS LOVE TO APOLLO @ SWEET SEEDS, for allowing us to play with these fun genetics 💚🤜🤛

~ GG4 SHERBET FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "Bred from extremely potent and flavorful Gorilla Glue and Orange Sherbet genetics, GG4 Sherbet FF (Fast-Flowering) takes all the best traits to the next level, offering a high-yielding strain that can produce up to 600 g/m2 in a 7-week flowering time. This super resilient Indica-leaning hybrid thrives indoors and outdoors, and in all types of climates while producing mouth-watering sweet, fruity, spicy and earthy terps that translate into a delicious sugary hazelnut aroma. Expect an extremely relaxing and overall happy effect that’ll leave you with a huge smile from ear to ear. It’s the perfect strain for growers of all levels of experience seeking low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver quality and quantity without extra effort. GG4 Sherbet FF grows chunky buds with long dark orange hairs and spade-shaped calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a gorgeous silvery-white appearance. This medium-sized photoperiod can reach up to 200 cm in height and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. GG4 Sherbet FF grows with a stocky, bushy appearance, developing one sturdy main cola and fat side branches that support huge yields without much effort. This super-fast variety produces distinctive light-green buds with a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a top-notch resin producer that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely flavorful resin that makes for outstanding hash end extracts." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/25- Well folks... Here we go into the first full week of flower for the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower and this lady is not holding back! The weather continues to be hot and dry, with only an occasional passing rain shower maybe once a week, and as a result the daily watering continues after sunset. 7/27- The GG4 Sherbet FF is pretty much on autopilot now. All I'm doing is regularly watering her and checking daily throughout her foliage for yellow or dead shade leaves that I remove. 7/29- Passing showers all day yesterday took care of my watering duties, which resumed today with 5g of well water from the garden hose after the sun went down. 7/31- With thirteen days in flower behind her, the GG4 Sherbet FF is only going to get more impressive as the weeks go by now and I can't wait!🤩 Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Meh, couldn't wait longer - most of the stigmas are orange, and the trichomes are mostly milky with a few amber ones. Good to go :-D
