Plugged em and put em in there dome setup to finish the germination process and have them burst head on into this world! ***update*** all 4 sprouted within 36 hours perfect germination like I expect....looking like some healthy little sprouts!

Sprouted a few days back... so part of the first week was germination time! They are plugging along strong all starting on there second set of leaves. Little stretch on the seedling which I love to see :). God bless those florescent bulbs i use on my humidity dome for germination they get perfect amount of light when they sprout up outta the plugs to eliminate seedling stretch! Will update in two days with growth report! ***update*** the seedlings reacted greatly to the small feeding they received. They all are starting on another new set of leaves... I will be slowly upping there veg nute regime during the short veg period of these auto flowering variety. Want to get some veg nutes into em in this short window of time... But gotta make sure not to over do it 😎

The young seedlings are loving the environment I'm providing them with! All are showing good signs of strength but that's a no brainer its fast buds genetics I'm dealing with here! Seedling responded greatly to both reduced feedings they have been given 1/4 strength and a 1/2 strength... Might just say fuck the 3/4 dose and just go for the gusto!! I'll post back with a update in a couple days. Happy growing and stay lit FAM! ***update these girls are already impressing me with there vigor and explosive growth fastbuds you du know we doing it big right here!

As we start a new week the girls to are starting something new! They have hit maturity and have started the transition into woman hood! starting the flowering phase and we are gunna be there to give these ladys everything they need to grow lushes beautiful flowers. Once a little more of the stretching is done we will start our lst. Haven't gave them there transition feed yet so I will update the nutrients when I feed them tonight! Will update growth in a couple days. Happy growing n stay lit. UPDATE*** gave them there transition feed so updated the nutrients. Also introduced bud candy to these girls at 4ml per liter ...was going to do a straight GH grow but I just cant deny my girls the right to eat candy! But on the real I just see ridiculous results from the bud candy that it's now a staple in my nutrient mixes no matter what I'm using lmfao! Stay lit and I'll update with growth report tommorow! UPDATE*** yesterday was training and initial defolition day for these beauties! I find after the initial couple days of flower stretch is the ideal time to train this particular strain... as to the fact that side branching doesnt occur with much vigor until she hits maturity. We trained and strategically spaced colas out for better light penetration and defoliated leaves that shaded valuable colas. Gave them there transition feed that I updated in the chart. Were rolling along strong here! Happy growing and happy toking n I'll post updates near the end of this grow week. UPDATE*** the girls have continued there flower stretch so I've continued to train those stretching colas into open space! Gotta keep up with that lst baby. The canopy is filling in nicely as we end this first week of flower.... the transition period is almost done as we have buds finally developing with some character. Happy growing. UPDATE*** I've added flora nova bloom in a minor dose to there fresh ph'd water only feed. I find it adds a nice all around kick in between nutrient feeds. When the girls need just a little more.

Another week ends and a new week begins we are getting closer and closer to some frosty sweet gorilla glue!!! Buds are finally developing nicely and showing some character. Weve kept up with training colas to open up space for quality light penetration to all bud sites. Pruning leaves here and there for the same reason. Temp and humidity have stayed a pretty constant even though the rapidly increasing temperatures outside. Humidity stayed a constant 45 at this point other than right after I water which raises it to 50 for a hour or 2. Temps been a static 24 degrees light on and 18 degrees lights off no fluctuations on the tracker. The environment is dialed in and the girls are loving it . Will post updated pics/vids and growth report in a couple days! Happy growin n stay lit fam. UPDATE*** so as flowering really kicks into gear I had height variances 2 of the plant are about 8 inches shorter than the other 2 so I propped them up on 6 inch pots to even up the canopy ! All bud sites/ plants are now getting equal lighting just like it should be 😎 Happy growing and I'll update in a couple days! Stay lit🔥

So our gorilla girls are growing like some seriously content plants! There packing an aroma that tickles ur nose with terpes in such a way that u get lost into a cannabis bliss well trying to train limbs. Buds are growing in real tight formation and starting to create a jacket of trichomes. Not a single spec of yellow taints these plants lushes vibrant green! during these early stages of flowering every imperfection in your growing practice will directly decrease your yield significantly. So were staying sharp and keeping the girls nice and cozy! Look out for those tastey bud shots to come! Updates in a couple days! Happy growing and stay lit fam! ***UPDATE as the days go by the girls are looking better and better. The one plant though continues to get taller so tommorow she will be super cropped to even up the canopy! So I'll I'll leave it at that till tomorrow and keep the update sort and sweet. ***UPDATE Gg auto really accelerates its resin production around day 18-20 frosty 🔥🔥🔥

As we start week 4 of flower shit has got real. Bud sites are really developing strong! Aroma is packing even more of a punch and resin production is in overdrive. FUEGO 🔥🔥 The largest of the 4 has almost hit 3 feet so I suped cropped that bitch just over 8 inches from the top. Now we have a beautiful even canopy... a growers dream. To get this even canopy we had to boost 2 plants up on empty pots and super crop one 8 inches. Grow room is just packed with colas but branches are perfectly trained out to recieve optimal light coverage. Looks like our hard work is paying off. Will update with growth ect... in couple days! Happy growing and stay lit fam. ,***UPDATE The super cropped plant didnt skip a beat bud sites turned up within 24 hours no stunt to the girls rythem !!! All in the technique baby . Happy growing! Frosty 😍🤩😍

On Monday I scoped the girls and decided to not give them that last feed and flush em cuz they were right were I wanted em to be... 80/20. That way by end of flush they will be 70/30 cloudy to amber trichomes. Been flushing 4 days now so 3 more days and they'll be getting the axe 😍🤩😍 Been flushing with straight ph'd water... not using a flushing agent this time around. Like to experiment with each strain in different ways to find that sweet spot 😎 been flushing till 50% runoff 😉 They're absolutely stunning and I cant wait for the first taste! Will update Sunday when I'm chopping em. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

Just chopped the girls down so some of the specs are still blank... due to the fact there in the drying process. Will update as they become available. Got each lady in there own tier of a drying rack. Cut them into individual colas and will be turning them around a 1/4 4 times daily... Slow dry baby everytime. Preserve those terpenes and potency as much as we can here. Amazing looking buds dense n compact resinous beauties 😍🤩😍 Huge pop can and fore arm sized colas cant wait to get that dry weight. They got that Signature pungent aroma of fire and flames lmfao but seriously slight fuel smelling with citrus hues... is the way I'd describe it. Will do taste and effect once its dry and smokable but I feel safe to say itll be that signature GG taste. @fast_buds we did it again 🏆🏆🏆 Every time I run the GG it gets better and better. Gunna need me some more 😎🤤😎. Will update every couple days as they dry and let u know how they doin. Bomb shit FAM. Happy growing and stay lit fam! ****UPDATE **** We are On the 6th day of drying and we are just about where we want to be moisture wise to manicure, jar and burp dry the rest of the way! I like to jar a bit earlier than some moisture wise because I find if u leave a little bit more moisture than snapping stems like most people dry to... u actually preserve more of the terpenes (aroma and taste) but as a result u also have to burp more often and for longer increments... but well worth the results. Would take about another 2-3 days to be at snapping point ( total of 9 days on the drying rack). But we will do six on the rack and than heavy burping for 3 days.. Then slowly lower the burp increments. Slow dry/cure to preserve perfection 😎 Will update very shortly with dry / trimmed weight and all those other valuable specs... but until than happy growing and stay lit fam. ***UPDATE So we averaged 30 grams a plant totaling at 123.5 grams dry bud. The bud is manicured like u wouldn't believe I hate smokin leaf 😱🤢🤮 But we ended up with 2.5 ounces of straight frost sugar leaf trim to run some extract with... and purge up some concentrates🔥🔥🔥 so most people would have left that sugar leaf on bringing our total weight up to 193.5 grams or 48.5 grams a plant. Some serious fire from @fast_buds 🙌🙌🙌 dunno I'll be growing a wave of these beauties again soon! Happy growing and stay lit fam 🏆🏆🏆 ***UPDATE After curing now for a week we have smoked another fat sample of it 🔥🔥pics and videos of the buds smoked have been uploaded 😍🤩😍 Draw is incredibly smooth Flavour is still super gassy with undertones of fruity sweet . Exhale is a boost of euphoria everytime with a subtle citrusy aftertaste. Extreme pasties comes quick so keep a session drink handy lmfao. High lasts extremely long bout 45 mins of euphoric cerebral sativa buzz than 30 mins of 50 50 split of body to head buzz for me. But I'm an extremely heavy toker. Definitely have a novice puffer sweeping the lawn lmfao. @fast_buds its getting better and better as it gets a chance to cure! And we have the luxury of slow dry and slow long cure time so this is going to be top shelf flower! ***UPDATE Another amazing session and im lit outta my tree! Straight cerebral head buzz atm strong AF! Straight diesel taste not much fruity outta this J just straight FUEGO gas! Tiny bit of citrus on exhale. Dry mouth like crazy my tongue is literally glued to the roof of my mouth! Amazing all around smoke 10 putts 10 finished ***UPDATE Smoked a bat with the fam lights out lmao erbody loving it pure gas 🔥🔥🔥 pics/vids uploaded 😍🤩😍
