Today my Gorilla Cookies from Fast Buds has popped its taproot. I will plant my seed tonight or tomorrow morning alongside two Top Gun beans from Atlas Seeds. With one grow now under my belt, I am excited to apply all of my knowledge gained from the previous grow. I will continue using Fox Farms Trio Nutrients. I also picked up some Silica Blast from Botanicare, and some pH Up and Down to help dial in some more things. I soaked the seeds for about 18 hours before moving them from a cup of water into paper towels. I also just transferred to a much larger college with more opportunities for me in Cannabis. I will be pursuing my BS in Finance along with a Cannabis Studies Certification alongside these grows. So please, all advice, questions, and guidance will be greatly appreciated, as I am just a student looking to expand my knowledge in the industry. This is just the start. Thanks for checking out my grow!

Seedling is about 7 days old, I'm going to fill up the pots soon. The diffuser I've been using for humidity has helped keep my humidity and temperature right. It only runs for so long before I have to fill it up manually, so I've been fluctuating a lot. Just watered them for the first time today too.

Today is 9/16. Gorilla Cookies is now 14 days old and growing great. I’m starting light nutrients this week. I think I’ll try to water feed water feed for now. Thanks for checking me out.

Grow is still going great, not much to talk about. G Cookies is growing a little shorter than the others, seems like good news to me. I am upping nutrients starting with next watering and flowering will probably start in the next week too. Thanks for checking out the grow.

It's been about 30 days since sprout. I need to significantly raise the amount of water I'm giving the plants I think. I also decided to top all three of the plants, just to try to keep everything even, and I thought the plants were healthy enough. Flowering has started too, starting to smell. Thanks for checking it out.

35 days from sprout. Growing good, getting bushy and started to take up some real space. Not much else to comment on, go look at the other girls growing in this tent. Thanks for checking me out.

This plant has taken off. Along with my other plants my tent is out of control. I left the plants over the weekend when I went home, about 3 days. I didn’t raise my light and she grew into my light and burnt the tips. I’ve been doing a lot of defoliation to try to keep things manageable, not sure how much larger she will get though. Thanks for checking out my grow

Omg this plant won’t stop growing. I left for the weekend and it almost grew into my light again. I hardly have any more vertical space. I haven’t a clue what to do with this thing. Finally starting to make buds, they are few and far between, I’ve been trimming as much as I can to try to ensure the buds I do get are solid. Thanks for checking it out.

Today is day 70! This past week she has really been bulking up on the buds, getting rock hard on the main colas. Started off smelling kind of sweet n sour, it’s more pine smelling instead of the sour now, almost like straight up pine aerosol. Did a load of defoliation, looking for a handful of quality buds at the end of this. Not seeing too too much tru home production, I’m sure this goes another month or so until I chop.

Photos from day 78. I am having bad humidity issues in the tent. One of my plants started to get mold. I immediately harvested the plant as it was close to being done and I wanted to try to save the my gorilla cookies and my other top gun. Still can’t get under 60% humidity. A lot of white pistils everywhere still, probably another couple weeks if I don’t get any more mold.

Holy! Gorilla Cookies has really changed since last week. This plant is the size of a small child now, the buds are massive. There is a lot of fading and dead leaves becoming more prevalent. She is definitely coming to an end but still not seeing amber trichomes. Humidity is back down to the 50s and I’m checking for mold every day.

Gorilla Cookies is 91 days old today. Finally starting to see mostly cloudy trichomes, the last water was Sunday. I will be chopping sometime over the weekend stay tuned. I just wanted to say how awesome this plant did and how impressed I am with my first fast buds genetic seed, My first gorilla cookie seed didn’t sprout and they sent me one for free. Now we are here. I’ve topped this plant, it has grown into my grow light and burnt itself, I’ve dehydrated it. I had to walk it down the street in trash bags twice because I had to get the plants out. And she still turned out awesome, I can’t wait to smoke it.

Fast buds genetics are freakin awesome, I can’t wait to try some more soon, Mephistopho is next though. Total Weight was 78 grams Dry, I dried for 9 days, 65 degrees and avg of 50ish humidity, was perfect but it was stable. Smells of candy gas, had a lot of larf and buds I just didn’t want to trim so I have 37grams of trim to get some keif out of. Thanks for checking out this awesome grow of mine!
