I am excited to try out this new gorilla cookies from fastbuds. I originally started this setup to compete in the solo cup challenge, but I needed something that will be minimal maintainence and doesn't require hand watering. So this is what I ended up with. I will not be entering since I know it will bring controversy, but I am going to follow the rules and treat this grow as if I am competing. I didn't want to use regular solo cups because last time I had a lot of algae growing in the root zone when I harvested. I opted to use a black light proof cup. These cups were 27 oz originally so I filled them with 16 oz of water, marked the level, then cut them down to 16 oz. I set the drain pipes about an inch from the bottom so they have a little reserve if I have pump or power issues. I know people will see the drains as a way for roots to grow out of the cup but in reality I have to keep the entire pipe free of roots or it will clog and overflow. So I am actually losing a little volume due to this. I filled the bottom inch or so of the cups with river gravel to stop the perlite from washing into the reservoir. I am running a 5 gallon reservoir with a small air pump and the plants will be getting irritated 24 hours a day from an aquarium power head pump. I set the system up to be totally self contained and easily portable. It was all built from things I had laying around other than 97¢ for the cups. I will be keeping the feed simple as always feeding maxigro and maxibloom with a couple flower boosters.

She was the second to pop up (and purple punch earlier that day) I won’t be topping any autos this run! I will be only low stress training until scrog and then I’ll high stress train if necessary! I’ve given the first feed today of biobizz (doing fastbuds organic the other 3 synthetic) my aim is to keep the veg period vigorous! As a great veg equals great bloom! All other

20.11. 2023 18:00 - Fellows growers probably the last week for RQS on this journey I'm looking forward to it. Everything is ready for the harvest.

hay que mencionar que las raíces están muy grandes y fuertes, crearon un sistema radicular muy denso, parecen ramas, los troncos están muy grandes y fuertes, ya empiezan a notarse más y más las flores

Day 55 - This week the plants started yellowing and spotting significantly. I'm hoping this is the normal color change before harvest since the flowers are fattening nicely. I added a second fan to the tent and have a USB microscope arriving today to check the trichomes.

Cali crasher grew great under the Hortibloom Solux 350. She has some nice colas on her. She did start drying out when I had her in darkness. Her time has come so it is not a big deal.i dud have to treat her for mites when she was vegging. Beside that there was no major grow issues.

Ya les va llegando su hora. Están soportando temperaturas extremas y han aguantado muy bien. Ahora lo que me preocupa es secarlas con estás condiciones de altas temperaturas y humedad baja, a ver cómo me las ingenio..

Día 42 (27/02). Riego 1,25 Litro H20 + Wholly Base 2,5 ml/l + Solid Green 1,5 ml/l + Rise Up 0,5 ml/l de Gen1:11 TDS 898 PPMs - pH 6,5 (mínimo ajuste con pH+ para subirlo desde 6,2) Plantas sedientas con un intervalo de riego cada 4 días. A partir de ahora regaré cada 3 días Día 43 (28/02) Las ramas crecen muy rápido y se van colocando para recibir el máximo posible de luz. Es impresionante su evolución día a día! Día 44 (29/02) Han crecido 17 cm desde que cambié a 12/12. Alucinante! 😍😍😍 Día 45 (01/03) Riego 1,25 Litro H20 + Wholly Base 2,5 ml/l + Solid Green 1,5 ml/l + Rise Up 0,5 ml/l de Gen1:11 TDS 891 PPMs - pH 6,25 Añado un poco de substrato al top y a los bordes de la maceta antes de regar, porque se ha compactado ligeramente. Día 46 (02/03). Las plantas siguen su crecimiento imparable. 3 cm al día 😍 💦Nutrients by Gen1:11 - www.genoneeleven.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae 🎚️Controlled by TrolMaster TCS-1 Tent-X System Main Controller - https://www.trolmaster.com/Products/Details/TCS-1

Looking amazing.. smells of strong garlic with a zesty after tone. Starting to double up she's almost done. Probably this next week will harvest.

Really love this strain, grown it a few times, happy with how she turned out, greasy an sticky and the smoke is heavy an euphoric, she smells like fruit punch with hints of nut meg, a smell I can't explain very pungent...

Happy weekend everyone. Hope you and your plants are all healthy. On Tuesday this week I decided to flip to flower as I believe both of these strains like to stretch a fair bit. Let's see if that is the case. Gave them all a big plain water and trimmed off fan leaves before flipping. They looked very bare and I had the panic of thinking that I may have taken too many fan leaves. The humidity went up to 65% at one point because of it. So I cranked my little heater up to raise the temperature and drop the humidity. They have gained a lot of fan leaves back in their first four days of stretch and the humidity is coming back down accordingly. PHEW!!!!! I feel these next few weeks will be crucial and will really shape how this grow will finish up. Y'all gotta pray for me 😂. See you all next week. As always, any comments or tips are greatly appreciated. As is some love for my grow of course 😀 May The Grow be with you, always.

KEVS_BEST – Woche 8 Blütephase (Run 3) / Week 8 Flowering Phase (Run 3) Mit dem Start der achten Blütewoche beginnt der finale Reifeprozess: Die Sherbzooka-Pflanzen zeigen nun ein deutliches Anzeichen für beginnende Seneszenz. Die Zuckerblätter beginnen sich gelblich zu verfärben, Trichome sind überwiegend milchig, erste bernsteinfarbene Köpfe erscheinen – der perfekte Moment, um gezielt Fade einzuleiten. Die Buds haben nochmals deutlich an Volumen zugelegt, sind kompakt, klebrig und mit einer dichten Harzschicht überzogen. Der Duft ist intensiv fruchtig-süß mit säuerlichen Untertönen – ein unverkennbares Sherbzooka-Terpenprofil. Diese Woche wird die Düngung langsam reduziert: Zu Beginn der Woche wird eine Mischung aus 50 % Core und 50 % Fade gegeben, gegen Ende steht dann nur noch Fade im Fokus, bevor in der finalen Woche komplett auf Wasser mit Cleanse & Balance umgestellt wird. Setup: Die Umstellung verlief bisher reibungslos – EC, pH und VPD sind konstant, kein Stress sichtbar. Die Pflanzen wirken energiegeladen und reifungsbereit. 🌱 Status: Beginn der Endreife. 🔥 Potenzial: Sehr hoch – intensive Harzproduktion, ausgewogene Struktur. Hinweis: Die Wochenprotokolle von Grow 1 und 2 folgen zeitnah rückwirkend – aufgrund von Zeitmangel wurden sie bisher noch nicht nachgetragen. ENGLISH KEVS_BEST – Week 8 Flowering Phase (Run 3) Week 8 marks the beginning of the final ripening phase. Sherbzooka is showing clear signs of senescence: sugar leaves begin to fade, most trichomes have turned cloudy with a few amber heads appearing – the timing for the Fade regimen is just right. Buds have swollen further, covered in a thick layer of sticky resin. The aroma profile is rich, fruity-sweet with sour undertones – a signature Sherbzooka experience. This week starts with 50% Core / 50% Fade and will shift to full Fade by the end of the week, followed by pure water + Cleanse and Balance during the final flush phase. Setup: Environmental conditions remain stable, plants show no signs of stress. Maturity and resin production are peaking. 🌱 Status: Entering final ripening. 🔥 Potential: Excellent – high resin content and strong structure. Note: Due to time constraints, the weekly logs for Grow 1 and Grow 2 will be completed retroactively.

Getting closer to harvest.

Day 43 Watered them with feeding but a bit less than in Chart. Ppm is still high but because I got bio-fertilizer I think it should be okay 👍🏽. I also set the light from stage 7 to stage 9 so far the plants seem to like it. Will give an update on day 45. Day 50 Trying to fix the overfeeding. looked good Day 53 Still a bit overfed. Reducing the feed. I’m trying water without minerals next and will see how it is going.

Day 50. They are flowering !!! Plant A is taller and starting to run !!! Drop her down a bit and raised plant B to keep even canopy. Yesterday they got nute blast, close to 850 ppm. Planing plain water and one more heavy feed this week. Trimmed bottoms a bit, few sucker branches and few leaves gone. Happy Growing !!!

Day 65 - Starting week 10 and she’s definitely starting to fatten up a bit since lowering the lights for her. Already getting close to another round of water so most likely tomorrow, she’s drinking quite a bit lately. Day 66 - She was just about dried up already so gave her 2 gallons of plain pH’d water. Gonna start checking out the trichs soon, I’m thinking she’s down to about 2-3 weeks left but when the trichs tell me she’s done, I’ll chop her. Day 67 - Not much to do with her today, just some updated pictures and checked out the trichs for the hell of it and still mostly clear with a few milky scattered throughout. Day 68 - She’s gonna be ready for some water tomorrow, other than that, just been checking the trichs and tucking some leaves when I put her back in the tent. Day 69 - She was ready for water today and thinking she’s got about 10-14 days left, I went ahead and started the flush according to the Technaflora schedule. So mixed 5ML of MagiCal and 80ML of Sugardaddy with 2 gallons of water. Day 70 - Ending week 10 and she’s getting down to the wire. Still looking at about 7-10 days and everything is on track. Very few clear trichs in there, most are cloudy with a few amber scattered throughout.

Week 9

Week 5 already of Guava. She finally reached a good size and the first pistils started to show. Very excited about her stretching and the growth in the next weeks. Had some aphids this week, but spotted them early and could just remove them (about five or six only). So far no new are visible, but will watch closely.

She is growing nice, the buds are getting fat, apparently i was expecting gorilla cookies to be the winner at the size of the buds until now, apparently i was wrong, amnezia has bigger buds than gorilla at this stage :) we will see who is going to be the winner... who you think is going to win?
