Day 37 - Into the beginnings of week 6 and nothing much to speak of right now. I did tie down most of her branches again because they were starting to get pretty lengthy and want to try and keep everything as even as possible. Day 38 - All in all looking good and did a little more LST with her but some of the upper leaves are hanging low and think it’s due to the heat. I’m doing what I can to get it as cool as I can but can’t seem to get it below about 82 when lights are on. Temps are supposed to be cooling down around here in a couple days and hopefully she’ll be better but if not, I might change everything to lights off during the day and on at night. If by the end of this week it’s not cooler, I’ll change the schedule up. Day 39 - All seems to be ok, just trying to beat the heat for hopefully, a few more days. She’s still good on water and won’t probably need any for a few more days. Day 40 - Getting a little worried about this girl, she’s definitely not liking the heat and I’m hoping it’s not screwing her but it is finally cooling down and bit so hopefully she’ll perk back up. She’s finally ready for some water tomorrow but I’ll have to look back at my notes and see if she’s ready for nutes or another plain water. Day 41 - Still not looking all that great but gave her 2 gallons of plain pH’d water today so hoping that maybe that’s all she needs to perk her up. Hoping it’s not too late for her.

This week all 3 Pheno continue to stretch, which likely will continue through end next week (week 4 flower). Fed girls Recharge prior to defoliation at the end of week. Day and night tent temperatures were constantly between 78F and 65F degrees. Relative humidity a consistent 55%. Using an online calculator found VPD range from day 1.48 (kPa) to 0.95 (kPa) at night. About as closed to optimum as one can get given existing equipment/tools and recent substantial rain in the SoCal region. Due for watering tomorrow, so prior to, I will top dress with worm castings, compost, and Langbeinite 0-0-22. I believe this should carry the 3 through to harvest. Breeder flower time listed is between 56 and 70 days. We are at day 20 flower as of today.

Happy enough with it we see how she’s smoking and how much she’s weighting.

Overall a great strain too grow as grows with ease and seemingly without issues even with minimal care. With care she can produce hefty buds, as kept mine small my flowers reflect but still produced great smelling powerfully buds 🌱 Cycle finished in time essentially with ease and I'd be happy too recomend this strain from fastbuds. I will update with more images and videos upon timing complete and give dry weight ect, these girls wont bring much but smell absolute treat. Atm I have tried 1 small nug but still not ready not long untill can trim up, great oils and taste just need a little cure up once finished. Tried uploading longer videos but again says error 👎 have now added few extra videos

She’s really swelling up. Buds are all with white tric heads but minimal amber. Going for that 15-20%. Pretty late in flower.

Good reaction at the nutrients

Hat mir alles sehr schön gefallen hab jetzt noch mehr Lust noch mehr zu machen hoffe es klappt alles auch in der Zukunft

Got hit by a severe heatwave this week! Temps reached 104 in the grow tent even with the lights off and fans at full blast. Threw some ice in front of a fan to help but it was not enough. Also doesn't help I went one day over when I would normally water them. First day of reasonable weather today. Plants seemed sad and droopy for a day, luckily after feeding they perked right back up. Defoliated slightly this week. Will definitely NEED air conditioning moving forward. Aside from that, the odor these two are creating is already mesmerizing. Best I can describe the smell so far is, a mixture of sweet pineyness with a light pungent funky undertone. Can't wait to switch to flower in a few days! Going to be flushing both plants this Sunday 05/31.

Day 60: flush 💦 Pictures are taken on day 62📸 -------------------------------------------- I found again some bud rot 😑 cutted the hole bud 😑 (last pictures) Happy growing 🍧🌱

I absolutely fall in love with Gorilla Strawberry! Amazing strain ! I see 5-6 phenotypes 1. Is small indica dominant with very fast flowering 2. is dark purple I have never grown a strain with such a beautiful dark purple my favorite 3 is very resinous with big buds and looks like the main photo of Gorilla Strawberry on fast buds web site 4 Is with bright pink pistils 5. Smaller plant with very thin sativa leaves and very thick main cola 6 is a giant sativa dominant with very broad branching, which is just starting to throw flowers and I guess it will grow for at least 11 weeks Compared to Gorilla Zkytllez seems to me Genetics is a bit volatile However, they have one thing in common with a crazy amount of resin and a wonderful sweet fruity scent. I can not stop sniffing buds very pleasant smell I feel like a junkie :D I could sniff this all day But there is one minor problem for me . While one phenotype begins to bloom and needs Bud Ignitor for a larger number of flowering sites, another could be ready in about 2 weeks and needs overdrive to compaction the flower... When I compare phenotype number 1 and phenotype number 6 looks like a completely different strain, the only thing they have together is a large amount of resin and a wonderful smell. But that's just a problem with my growing style, because I mix fertilizers in a big bucket for all plants equally and I don't have time to mix for each one separately Finally, there is a photo of a thick stem that I probably burned when watering with fertilizer

1st week of flowering over. Trim at the end of this week to redirect energy again and then we'll

Start Flush

3 weeks into the vegetative stage. The pre-sex flowers start to show. I bend the main trunk to get nice side shoots for maximum budsites. Lets hope she still has a week before getting in the flowering stage to max her size.

Hello my beautiful friends 😊 😊 😊 2nd week arrived and he is here 💪 💪 💪 Girls looks very happy and I am happy with them 🙂 Day 9- like you can see on picture a humidifier was temporarily removed. I have to clean and maintain it, so humidity is low but tomorrow unit going back inside 😇 😇 😇 Please have a beautiful day and I wish you all to have a fantastic Christmas 🎄 ♥️ 🌲

TUESDAY 7/16: I graduated two of my hybrids to 3 gallon pots and moved them outdoors today. Both were Candy Cane x Amnesia Autos that had been in solo cups. They were both extremely well rooted and should do just fine. I watered them in with spring water and a little extra bokashi, dolomite, and azomite and wished them well. I hope to graduate a couple of the Candy Cane x C4's tomorrow or the next day, but it will be another week before the other CC x C4, the Candy Cane x Early Miss, and the Candy Cane (S1) are ready. Neither Candy Cane x White Widow seedling made it...😥 WEDNESDAY: I transplanted another Candy Cane x Amnesia and a Candy Cane x C4(purple pheno) into 3 gallon pots today. I watered them in with Azomite, Dolomite, Biochar, Kelp Me Kelp You and sprayed them with Boom Boom Juice a few times early in the morning. By noon, they were standing at attention and growing a millimeter a minute. They are loving the sunshine.😎 Tomorrow, I'll transplant another Candy Cane x C4 and another Candy Cane x Amnesia. The Candy Cane x Early Miss is a misshapen miniature mongrel, but I'm hoping she snaps out of her funk and gets busy growing soon. The Candy Cane(S1), and the last two Candy Cane x C4's are tiny little runts..I'm hoping the Boom Boom Juice I misted them with all morning will kick them into gear....🙏 I was really hoping to have at least one Candy Cane x White Widow in the grow too, so I went ahead and floated another bean last night..it had sunk by this morning. Fingers crossed... THURSDAY: I transplanted another Candy Cane x C4 and another Candy Cane x Amnesia into 3 gallon pots today. Out of Bio Tabs, so mixed up some of my recharged soil with a little extra coco coir, perlite, bokashi, biochar, and a handful of compost, along with some Osmocote Plus, then watered them in with azomite, dolomite and Kelp Me Kelp You. The day of sunshine did seem to kick the Candy Cane x Early Miss into gear, but I didn't really see much growth on the other CC x C4 or the Candy Cane (S1)..what did grow is really twisted up like the Early Miss hybrid..I'm thinking that I must've used too much Mycotrex and/or Great White on the new seedlings. They have all been rooted like crazy, but several had weird-looking, slow-starting, twisted foliage.😕 So the current line-up of hybrids in this diary consists of: 4 * Candy Cane x Amnesia Auto (planted) 2 * Candy Cane x C4 (planted) 1 * Candy Cane x Early Miss (not yet planted) 1 * Candy Cane x Amnesia Auto (not yet planted) 1 * Candy Cane (S1) (not yet planted) FRIDAY: Inspected for pests and repositioned them a few inches over so that they get another half hour of sunlight per day. I sprayed the area with Ortho again and bought a little air bubbler to aerate water for compost tea. SATURDAY: They've all put on a couple of inches since Thursday. I mixed up a fairly weak batch of Big Bloom and Grow Big plus some Kelp Me Kelp You and douched them with about a half-gallon right as the sun was coming up. I also prepared a foliar feed using Big Bloom and Kelp Me Kelp You and sprayed them well as the sun came up, and again after it was going down. I also started aerating 4 gallons of water today...will add the compost tea tomorrow morning and let it cook for 24 hours. The Candy Cane x Early MIss is a few days away from being planted and moving outdoors, and one of the remaining Candy Cane x C4's is a few days behind her. The other Candy Cane x C4 and the Candy Cane (S1) probably won't make it, but that's fine..I had really only planned to grow 5 hybrids plus a photo and a Zkittlez auto. Also, the Candy Cane x White Widow bean may yet come up. SUNDAY: I foliar fed them and sprinkled a little more Silicium Flash on top of the soil of all my plants and also mixed about 4 grams of Bactrex into a jug with 3/4 gallon of bottled water and douched them with about 2 pints each. That should really get the beneficial bacteria and fungus kicked into overdrive. I started brewing a 4 gallon batch of compost tea today. Since I don't have any Orgatrex, I am using a little Big Bloom, Kelp Me Kelp You, and Grow Big in the tea in addition to the PK Compost Booster tea from Bio Tabs. I'll add Mycotrex to it about 2 hours before it finishes and thoroughly dowse them all tomorrow morning. MONDAY: I fed the outdoor ones each about a liter of compost tea and foliar fed them a couple times as the sun came up, and gave each of the remaining seedlings in the cabinet about 2 shot glasses full each and foliar fed them as well. It looks like I've finally got a Candy Cane x White Widow Auto seed to sprout...fingers crossed that she takes off normally. If she does fully emerge, she's already waaaay behind the rest...🙏 Late last night one of my cats ate half of one of the biggest leaves on my Early Miss hybrid, but she's okay..actually starting to grow. I may actually plant her outdoors tomorrow.👍 It's been a decent week for them...tomorrow begins a new week.

4/20 AM all the photos are looking good. The Tyson’s are done. 👍👍👍🍇⛽️ 4/21 4:30AM Took small samples of BTT!!! Smoking now. Heavy hitter right off the tree. she is looking already done Grimm Seeds finish fast once flowering. Wasnt expecting that! I will grow some more and veg longer. I am RE-vegging. Ricky and Bubbles they are almost a year old and I want to keep thiem. Julian can go fu...no Julian was flipped at Week 6 or 8 produced the best tight buds smells like...'tangerines. 4/21 5:04AM VIDEOS 2 MONTEL'S, THE TALL ONE AND 1 TYSON, PUNCH PIE & GELATO 44!!!! 4/21 FLUSHED THE TYSONS WITH JUST WATER AGAIN AND WOW!!!!! LOVE THE RQS TYSON PHOTO PLANTS!!!! THEY ARE STRONG THEY CAN GROW UNDER HIGH STRESS CONDITIONS. I DID TREAT THEM EARLY ON WITH MY OWN WIZARD MAGIC WITH AMINO ACIDS THAT MIGHT HAVE HELPED BUT THEY ARE GREAT 9/10. 4/22 Kasa smart plug model EP-10 FAILED by turning into a strobe after random fails... The bigger ones are fine I have not had any problems, BUT the small ones failed. Thankfully I had them on my internet and not in the grow room!!! Random dropouts, clicks on and off like being hacked, but NO the mini Kasa smart plug failed, the others are good, the strobing on and off would have severely damaged electronics...I did NOT know that could happen! THE MORE YOU KNOW! 4/23 11AM CHOP DAY BOTH Tysons came down. They were ready a while ago. They did GREAT. Underfilled 2 gallon pots. Low light using 2 TS-100-'s at about 50 to 60 Watts. No idea how m;uch i got 4/24 3:20AM Tysons are drying perfectly, great color!!!! Video with Pink Kush and CBG by Seedsman in there 4/26 for 19 a.m. brothers Grimm seeds are way better than I thought they could be as long as I grow them right and one thing I’ve noticed and I may have to do a permutation combination thing on this is that with brothers Grimm seeds I can flip them at ridiculously early rates like four weeks keeping them in a vegetative state for a shorter amount of timing and flipping them I’m still getting auto flower seed and and weight not seed speed auto flower speed and weight so if I flip a black T Tay at four weeks, I’m getting just about the same weight as an auto flower but I’m using less power cause it’s at 12:12 same with all of the brothers Grimm seeds they seem to flip and flower at extremely accelerated rates. It’s really great. GROK SAID... ""**Yes, you're asking a really good practical question.** Here's a clear breakdown of how **short-veg photos** (your current style: flip after ~4 weeks) compare to **autos** in your specific low-power, small-tent setup with Brothers Grimm seeds. ### Side-by-Side Comparison (Your Setup) | Aspect | Short-Veg Photo (4 wk veg + 8-10 wk flower) | Auto (13-19 weeks total) | Winner for You? | |-------------------------|---------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|-----------------| | **Total Grow Time** | 12–14 weeks | 13–19 weeks | Photo (faster) | | **Light Schedule** | 12/12 (or 11/13) | 18/6 or 20/4 | Photo (less electricity) | | **Wattage / Intensity** | Can safely push higher (140-180W total) | Usually lower to control heat | Photo | | **Yield Potential** | Smaller plant but decent per plant | Often bigger single plant | Similar or slight edge to Photo in your case | | **Electricity Use** | Lower (12 hrs/day) | Higher (18+ hrs/day) | **Photo wins big** | | **Risk / Complexity** | Lower (you control flip) | Higher (no control over timing) | Photo | | **Re-Veg / Cloning** | Easy | Not possible | Photo | | **Consistency** | Very good with Grimm genetics | Good but more variation | Photo | ### Bottom Line for Your Style **Your short-veg photo method is actually excellent for you right now.** - Brothers Grimm photos (Black Tea Tangi, Ricky’s Hash Plant, Montel Dream Widow, etc.) respond **very well** to early flips. You’re already proving you can get solid, frosty buds in small pots without them taking forever. - Running **two TS1000s at ~140–160W total on 12/12** should give you **comparable or better** results than most autos in the same space, while using **significantly less electricity** and giving you more control. - You can harvest one tent, flip the next, and keep a near-continuous cycle — something that’s much harder with autos. ### Recommended Parallel Test (Simple Version) Do exactly what you’re thinking: 1. Take 1–2 strong photos (e.g. Montel or Ricky’s) and veg them only 4 weeks → flip to 12/12 with **two TS1000s**. 2. At the same time, pop 1–2 autos (same strains if possible) and run them on 18/6 or 20/4 with **one or two lights**. 3. Compare yield, quality, smell, and total electricity cost at the end. You’ll probably find the short-veg photos win on efficiency and control, especially with how well Grimm genetics are performing for you. **Quick Tip:** When you flip early, keep the lights a bit farther away the first 7–10 days after flip (18–24") to avoid light stress, then lower them as they stretch. You’re not wasting anything by harvesting smaller plants — you’re learning what actually works in *your* real-life situation (small tents, limited power, limited spoons). That’s smart growing. Want me to help map out a simple staggered schedule so you always have something finishing? Or tips on how to maximize those early-flip photos? Keep going — you’re on a good path."""💡👨‍🔬💡
