Spiritual_Herb Gorilla Cookie by Fastbuds – Experimental Grow Log
This grow is part of a broader experimental journey I'm taking as a beginner in cannabis cultivation. I'm growing Gorilla Cookie by Fastbuds, a strain chosen not only for its genetics, but as part of a controlled test to understand the root development of autoflowering cannabis in various conditions.
The goal of this experiment is to observe and analyze:
How different strains react to limited direct sunlight (5–6 hours/day)
Which strains are more resilient in suboptimal light conditions
How different container types, soil compositions, and exposure directions affect growth
Yield comparisons under controlled but varied conditions
General plant behavior and response to minimal intervention, natural stress, and microclimate adjustments (e.g., bottle dome at night)
Everything is being documented scientifically to build a deeper understanding of the plant's behavior in outdoor balcony setups — especially in urban, low-light environments.

If you're curious about cannabis adaptation, urban outdoor growing, or you're just starting out like me — feel free to follow this journey, drop a like, and let’s explore the plant world together!

Spiritual_Herb Since I didn't want to cause any damage, I removed LST from this plant. Surely she was a bit stressed, the seedling has been around for 15 days since it emerged

Spiritual_Herb I had inserted an LST technique that I then removed, unfortunately the other two plants had been targeted by leaf miners, I removed all the infected leaves and gave a spray that I created (garlic chili pepper decoction and 10g of organic potassium soft soap) I gave only under the leaves and in the pot without touching the tops, for now I am not noticing other signs in which case I will intervene with neem oil. For the rest, growth seems healthy and balanced.
Edit 22 june, the plant has definitely suffered from the stress of the LST, you can notice how few flowering points there are, I increased the fertilizers due to some deficiencies, NK, now I'm giving 0.6/0.8 of biobizzgrow in 500ml of water and 1ml of biobizz bloom in 500ml of water
