California Dreaming - Gorilla Sherbet F1

Furet May 25 - Day 7 : Hot and sunny outside 😎

Furet Day 14 - I started another seed of Gorilla Sherbet, the Apricot Glue Auto was eat by my cat 😅

Furet My cat ate the leaves again 😅 She loves cannabis so much, maybe i’ m a bad example for her 😂 but it’s alright, they keep growing even if the weather is bad

Furet June 14 - Everything alright, the smaller one have one less node than the other, maybe because of the stress of being eaten by the cat, but don’t worry i’ve trained my dog to guard the plantation 😂

Furet Nothing special to say 😎 LST is going on

Furet June 28 : Everything is going well with the first two plants—they’re growing very well. However, I’m starting to wonder if they’re really the same strain, because the larger one has fairly narrow leaves, while the other one seems to have much more large indica-like leaves. I’m not sure, what you think about that ?

Furet July 6 : I had to kept them in a room for few days because my stepfamily visited us, but they growing well 👌🏻 Probably no more LST now, or just a little bit. I’m happy with this bush effect 😎

Furet July 9 : Nothing to report, nice growin

Furet July 19 : I just came back at home and the stretch has been huge ! I’m a little bit surprised, even the Little one is tall now ! First pistils appeared too. Lets goooo ! 😎 Ps : Thrips attack when i wasnt here, I started treatment 😕

Furet July 26 : The girls are so big now, I had to do LST again this morning for discretion 😅 Everything ok and thrips are almost gone. The pistils are starting to multiply 😎

Furet August 3 : End of the first real week. Not a lot of pistils yet but they keep going. The girls are big and beautiful 😎

Furet August 8 : Buds are loading

Furet August 15 : The flowering is really, really, really slow ! It’s been almost a month since the first pistil appeared, and the girls seem to be taking their sweet time ! But that’s probably normal when growing outdoors at my latitude (48°N). I’m expecting another 5 or 6 weeks of flowering, bringing the total flowering time to around 9–10 weeks. It will all depend on how the buds develop over the next few weeks. The biggest one has reached 90–95 cm (35-37 in) while the other two are around 80 cm (31 in). I definitely wasn’t expecting them to get this big 😂 The weather has been perfect: it’s been warm, with virtually no clouds in the sky for weeks. Much better than last year! If I had to set myself a goal today, 100 days after the seed was started, and considering last year’s Green Poison F1 (around 50 g / 1.7 oz from a much smaller plant), I’d say 150–200 g / 5–7 oz total is a realistic target. I don’t know what kind of yields to expect from Gorilla Sherbet, so it’ll be a surprise. If you have an estimate, let me know in the comments ! Have a good week ! 😎

Furet August 23 : Nothing to report. Buds are growing, maybe 4 or 5 weeks left if I’m lucky 😎

Furet August 31 : The buds have really grown this week, and I’m going to start adding PK 13-14. The smell is starting to develop and is really sweet and mellow. I think I should be able to harvest around September 20–25, October 1st at the latest. Final run !!! Hopefully everything goes smoothly !

Furet September 5 - Hello guys 😎 Buds have put on quite a bit of volume this week and are starting to smell like a kind of sweet and citrusy mix. They seem to have handled the PK 13-14 without any issues. I’m going to give them one last dose tomorrow, same for Bio Bloom. The end is getting close — fingers crossed !

Furet September 12 : End of the first week without nutrients. The buds have continued to swell nicely, the trichomes are almost all cloudy on the buds, and some amber ones are starting to appear on the sugar leaves. I might be able to harvest next week, or the week after at the latest 🔥 September 13 : Mold appeared this night on a bud 😭 I’m ready to cut this stem if it happen again

Furet September 19 - End of the two-week flushing period ! 😎 I had a little bit of mold, but nothing serious, and I had to harvest the main buds from the smallest plant because amber trichomes were starting to appear. The smaller buds underneath are clearly not ready yet, so I think I’ll leave them for another week at most. I’m going to stagger the entire harvest like this. Some buds are almost ready on the other plants (100% milky on the main buds, with a few amber trichomes starting to appear) and will be cut in a few more days, once the amber trichomes reach 5–10% at the top. I think all the main buds will be harvested by the end of next week ! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 UPDATE September 22 : Small spots of mold are starting to appear every morning, so I’ve cut almost all the main colas. Already 660 grams of fresh herb on the scale. I’m going to wait until the end of the week to harvest the rest (No ambers)

Furet This is the end ! All the plants have been harvested, and we ended up with a total of 1.978 kg (69 oz) fresh, before trimming, which is way, way above my expectations! On top of that, the buds are really dense and sticky. There were a few mold issues, though, and I lost a few grams, but nothing too serious, and the rest of the harvest should be safe. I’m having a hard time estimating the final dry weight, but I think I’ll get at least 250 g, maybe even 300 g. Here are the scores: #1 (the smallest): 340 g #2: 834 g #3: 804 g I’ve already been able to smoke a few buds harvested last week, and they have a sweet taste with a very happy high (lots of laughter!). See you in a month for the final review!!
