DonCostro Welcome! Gorilla cookies from Fast Buds - I have previously tried growing this strain, with bad luck, two seeds did not make it back then, but this one got through germination with no issues, it only took less than 3 days. I have put the seed in water and it already sprouted a little taproot after about 12 hours. I put a bit of mycorhyzzae powder in the hole where the seed was planted in the soil, and the little seedling came out after 48 more hours.

DonCostro She is developing very nicely. I haven't watered since the first time, before planting the seed. First week only misting the plant and top of the soil with light solution. Kept it under a transparent plastic lid to keep humidity higher.

DonCostro Colas are forming nicely, and smell becomes more noticable. There is slight discoloration and burnt tips on the newest leaves, besides that she's looking perfect.

DonCostro Looks like the Top Max I added last week went bad and caused some weird stuff to happen, like causing the EC to skyrocket. There's also some symptoms of nute burn and lockout possibly, for now I just try to bring down the EC.

DonCostro She matured a lot this week, which is worrying me a bit, since the pistils went all brown and it seems a bit early for that. I have not seen any pollen sacs, so I doubt she went hermie. Not sure why this is happening, I just hope there's still time for the buds to fatten up a bit more, before she's done.

Grow Questions

DonCostrostarted grow question 3y ago

My plant has developed 80% orange/brown pistils after only 4 weeks of flower. I know pollination can cause this, although I haven't found any male flowers. Could hot temperature/humidity, or nutrients cause this, and is there chance she'll still fatten up in the coming weeks?

Sciolistic_Steveanswered grow question 3y ago

it's an autoflower, so if oyu consider it was in bloom 7-10 days before you saw a preflower or hints of bloom, then it's not so extreme.. a little early but 9 weeks in for an auto this isn't crazy fast as you may think. probably just a faster flowering auto - which also means a generally smaller plant. other things to consider - spray it with anything? some stuff will burn pistils and cause them to die which would bring out the color change. pollination like you said, too. temp/rh being off a bit shouldn't be a huge issue. its not going to fatten up any more. no new calyxes are forming. . if it did have a new wave of growth, it's not necessarily a good thing... gonna have even more drastically varying levels of ripening on same buds... the stuff that grew early wil be over-ripe and new growth will be under-ripe. some people like new waves of pistils and will wait for it to ripen. i'm not a fan of that. each to their own without good research to flesh out what is best.

Happy Harvest Day!

10/10

Rated

This strain is everything it sets out to be. It can produce beautiful, dense, and aromatic buds, that cover in purple and gold leaves during last weeks of flowering. That's also when she adds a good amount of mass, so don't get impatient with harvest. I didn't have to add much nutes, almost none actually and still got a bit of burn. There was no problems growing it and it took 10-11 weeks to reach full maturity.
