Last of the 5 Papaya Cookies still going strong.Ive given her just plain water when the pot is dry.She is still showing some signs of new growth and has more time to develop.cut the last Papaya down trichomes were cloudy. I’m going to dry her a little differently than the rest.Im going to hang in small branches on hangers as I’m trying to avoid any molding on the big center cola.Drying at 67 degree and 62 percent humidity and she smells amazing.

Week one starts today well actually yesterday Feb 9th was first day but who cares imma document it as today top dressed with power bloom days ago and top watered today Since the bottom watering pan was dry

~ GG4 SHERBET FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "Bred from extremely potent and flavorful Gorilla Glue and Orange Sherbet genetics, GG4 Sherbet FF (Fast-Flowering) takes all the best traits to the next level, offering a high-yielding strain that can produce up to 600 g/m2 in a 7-week flowering time. This super resilient Indica-leaning hybrid thrives indoors and outdoors, and in all types of climates while producing mouth-watering sweet, fruity, spicy and earthy terps that translate into a delicious sugary hazelnut aroma. Expect an extremely relaxing and overall happy effect that’ll leave you with a huge smile from ear to ear. It’s the perfect strain for growers of all levels of experience seeking low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver quality and quantity without extra effort. GG4 Sherbet FF grows chunky buds with long dark orange hairs and spade-shaped calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a gorgeous silvery-white appearance. This medium-sized photoperiod can reach up to 200 cm in height and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. GG4 Sherbet FF grows with a stocky, bushy appearance, developing one sturdy main cola and fat side branches that support huge yields without much effort. This super-fast variety produces distinctive light-green buds with a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a top-notch resin producer that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely flavorful resin that makes for outstanding hash end extracts." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/17- Well folks, after fourteen weeks of veg, I think this gorgeous FastBuds GG4 Sherbet FF is ready to show her stuff! I have begun to see a pistil here and there and she has stopped her massive stretch so flowering should begin in earnest any day now! The daily watering routine for the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet FF continues with 10g of straight well water from the garden hose given at sundown daily with the exception of when we get substantial rain. 7/19- FIRST DAY OF FLOWER!!!🤩🎉While checking over the GG4 Sherbet FF today I saw that she has begun to flower which I have been anxiously awaiting! I removed a bunch of dead or yellowing leaves from the underside of the canopy, under the trellis net as well as a few small shoots that were down deep in the middle of the plant which would only produce larfy buds. 7/21- It rained all day yesterday, and the rain continued into this morning so I skipped watering at all today as the ground got well saturated. 7/23- Well there's the first week of flower on the books for the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower and I can't wait to see her develop over the next month! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Eva my little plant where start‘s 9 days later than her older sisters show me in her week 4 what I known from Tamara. She go in her flower Part on day 27th and it‘s the same day like Tamara. FastBuds did a Great Job with our Strains. And I can say …Eva do her job Great because she has caught up with her sisters. It’s so nice :-)

Gonna harvest one of the devils.. she is amazing looking... I love the fade on her and now she's in the dark. 2nd one is still stacking and looking FAT all over..gonna wait on her another week maybe. The smell, OUTTA THIS WORLD!!!

Bloom week 7. At day 83 no more nutriens. EC 0,4. Lamps run at 80%.

Weekly up date on these gorgeous ladies. They are stacked and swelling amazing going through the flower stage. I really couldn't be happier with how these have grown as it's an easy one not being to temperamental. I've kept the ppm/ec around the same between 900-1100ppms. Still feeding 16oz daily and all in all Happy Growing.

03.12.25 Die Mädels stehen richtig gut da. Alles wirkt gesund, gleichmäßig und schön kompakt. Im Schnitt sind sie jetzt bei etwa 25 cm angekommen. Das Topping und das LST haben sie ohne Probleme mitgemacht. Die CO₂-Bags hängen seit ein paar Tagen drin. Vor zwei Tagen gab’s nach dem Umtopfen das erste Mal Dünger, was sie gut wegsteckten. Beim nächsten Gießen gehe ich auf ungefähr 80 % vom Schema. Mein Leitungswasser ist zurzeit etwas hoch im pH (zwischen 7.2 und 7.9), deswegen muss ich inzwischen regelmäßig mit pH-Down korrigieren. Ich lasse sie noch ungefähr eine Woche in der Vegi und schicke sie dann in die Blüte darauf freue ich mich schon am meisten. 06.12.25 In 2 Tagen gibt's nochmal Dünger ansonsten passiert nix weiter und wenn alles passt gehen sie am 13.12 in die Blüte Hat zwar doch ne Woche länger gedauert als geplant aber ich bin optimistisch das es sich lohnen wird nochmal 7 Tage zu warten👍 Verbesserungsvorschläge sind erwünscht ✌️🍀

Recuerdan la rama que se quebró, resulta ser la más alta de la planta. Al ver que la grieta del tallo puede ser un peligro inminente le aplique tierra de diatomeas en la grieta, debido al cilicio Biodisponible en las diatomeas esto potenciará las paredes celulares y engrosara las ramas

Well I’m closing this one out. I had a lot of problems with humidity outside and bud rot, in hindsight i read a few reviews in the last few weeks and purple kush is susceptible to bud rot. I did 2 separate harvest, one on the 9th and one on the 14th. I collected everything I could smoke, there is still buds left on the plants but because of bud rot and immature buds I’m saying fuck it. Sonoma seeds quotes 9-10 weeks flower i harvested at week 8 and week 9. I harvested just shy of a pound total, and just over and oz of “purple” looking weed. Between you guys and i, the purple one was pretty shwaggy as far as bud goes. Would i grow this again outdoors? NOPE. Would i try it indoors? You will have to stay tuned for my next grow. If you plan to grow this strain outdoors do not do it. The fact that it’s pretty much 100%indica it does not like to get wet,🤦‍♂️🏻 if you are in the desert, indoors or live in Afghanistan (lineage) go for it. The taste is also not quite what I expected, all the reviews say grapes, but i taste a neutral taste. Some of it smells quite good in the jars but as soon as you smell each bud it smells like spicy woody herb with some dank undertone. Trimming it i had some sort of dank spicy smell i just can’t put my fingers on, except it was all over them. The buzz is “ok”but nothing to knock your socks off with. It is a stimulating feeling followed by a calm “not sleepy” feeling. I haven’t grown many outdoor variety’s but I’m sure most of them turn out the same. I’m waiting for my indoor no name to finish and I can start trying to redeem myself with my leftover seeds, and hopefully get the true quality/if there is, with this purple kush strain. Fall indoor; here i come. Thanks for tagging along. Cheers. Update: decided to make bubble hash with it. Update 2: pressed some hash into some shatter

Decided on a last minute substitution, as the seedling I was going to put into flower looked a bit sickly. So I will give it some time in the nursery to bounce back, this apple blossom looks very healthy and I'm thinking it will take longer than the blue dream so it can go in first.

Plants 1 & 3 are doing good. #1 is a beast so far. I will probably start flushing plant #3 here soon, she got stunted and I don’t think she’s really packing on weight anymore. So part of plant #2 was dry enough for jars after 5 days. Dry trimmed about an 38g. Still have about 2-3x as much left to trim. I think I’ll wet trim the other two it seems way harder to dry trim. I’ll have a total dry weight for plant #2 tomorrow.

She’s back in the tent for a bit with the 4 new girls. Soon will be back into the cupboard once it’s all set up.

Things are getting frosty around here! Critical Cures are at the top of the class. Critical Mass is in second. Charlotte's Angels are in third. Durga Mata is in fourth, with Blue Shark rounding out the pack as far as blooms are concerned, and how far along they are. This week I used the last of my "Tiger Bloom" and "Big Bloom" and I didn't feel like buying more, so I started making compost tea! It comes from my pile that consists of kitchen scraps, horse, chicken and sheep manure. They seem to be liking it. I also gave them a little nitrogen foliar spray this morning. I've had to spray insecticidal soap twice this week. Smells so fragrant out there, it's attracting a lot of bugs. I sent a pic of one of the Critical Cure's to a friend of mine saying "Not long now!" (As in like 3-4 weeks on this particular plant) to which he replied: "You've still got 6-7 weeks!" No, just no. Same guy also told me my plants would be 8 ft high. Ha! Silly boys.

May 23 Day 22: PGC is the biggest seedling so far and is looking great. Transplant day. Soluble seaweed extract at half strength used to water. May 26 Day 25: did a lazy compost tea which is normal compost tea done for a short time without a bubbler, and 24 h incubation max. If you leave it too long it will go anaerobic and get stinky. Five gallon was spread around whole yard. May 27 Day 25: foliar spray of Extreme Blend this morning after a few days in the grow bag. Looks like she is growing quickly now.

she is doing really well. the buds are getting thicker and the smell is also getting a bit more intense. unfortunately it rained a lot last week and the humidity was very high. i hope that no mould has formed in the budss. the next week will be really sunny and she should still enjoy it. and i think i will harvest her in a week's time.

She has started to move again with no further deficiency so I will continue her draught and see if she improves more!

Hey guys! Another another update from my babies! (rather late, but better late than never!) 😬 This week was special. I wanted to make a better timelapse compared to what I did in my previous grow... but I didn't know what my DSLR could only charge thru the battery slot or with some special equipment. Shame on me! So even when I had limited resources I still managed to do something... so I hope you'll all enjoy it! 🙏 Besides of that, at the start of the week I changed 3 babies from their cups to their final containers and I think I did it properly! They didn't stress! Even when I might have done it a little late (if you see in the very first photos their roots were growing outside of the cup 😱). I'm happy! 😃 I also overwatered them while I was changing their container 😞. In the very last pictures you'll notice that some algae was growing (the green thing in the white rocks) so I gotta be more careful next time and use less water... gladly it doesn't seem to be causing troubles! 👌 About the 5th seed I used I fear she didn't make it... she's still inside her shell and it doesn't look like she'll come out 😭 4th one is now showing a lot of progress, even when she looks weird... so I still have hopes! Maybe she'll impress me at a later stage! 😍 I'll try to have the next update sooner! Thanks everyone! 😻
