This week marked the final chapter of this journey. After 17 days of sunny, dry conditions, the sudden return of damp, humid weather and low airflow triggered internal bud rot (Botrytis) deep inside the main cola. Despite regular inspections and careful care, it developed rapidly in the dense core. I removed the affected top to stop further spread, but it was clear — nature had made her decision. The plant gave her all and was already in the final ripening stage, so I’m grateful for what she produced. Lesson of the week: Even outdoor autoflowers can fall victim to mould late in flower, especially in humid coastal climates like Ramsgate. Next time, I’ll cover my plants during the final weeks to protect from dew, humidity, and stagnant moisture. Big thanks to FastBuds for a strong and impressive cultivar — this was a powerful pheno with excellent structure, trichome coverage, and strong medicinal aroma. The genetics were solid; this was simply a weather issue. Every grow teaches us something. Grateful for the ride.

This is the coolest duck ever.

Good 😍🔥🔥

Monsoon finally hits! Temps have dropped below the 110 mark low 100's! This grow will likely last > 30 weeks. Since GD only supports 30 weeks of diaries, this "week" will actually last two weeks.

58 days in the books. Scheduled for knee surgery on the 10th so harvest on this girl may be coming sooner than I had hoped. My next diary will be 1 Big Bud and 1 Agent orange who have both been vegging the last 3+months. Gave them a lollipop hair cut 1 week ago. Both are recovering nicely. Anywho, happy gardening 🌱🙏🤘🖖✌️ ¤ With the help of my amazing lady friend the grow goes on. She will be aiding me in the 3 waterings (flush) to get this girl to the 10 week mark! Resin and trichomes are progressing from clear milky to milky amber.

Hello. This is the end of week 7 and the beginning of week 8 of flowering. This is the last week of food for these beautiful girls. I'll be flushing for the last 2 weeks. I find flushing makes the smoke taste less harsh. And curing in paper bags makes the pot taste great. More on that later... You can tell some of the plants are getting near the end of their lives, they are getting more yellow fan leaves, from the plant drawing back nutrients from them. I can see the clones are pollenated and I should have lots of seeds to share ... Want some free seeds? Just do a diary on them and I'll send you some. Give me your choice, send me a message in privet messaging. I use a international stamp and a Christmas card. Sent out 7 orders last year, all over the world. They all arrived. Some took 2 months though. This is the end of book #3 of Weirdo I'll find some other weird comics for the rest of this diary. Hope you like the old comics?? Some are a little strange though. No pest problems yet, and no White Powder Mildew problems yet either. I've got some WPM on some dandelion's leaves just outside of the greenhouse, but none in here yet. I've seen some fungus gnats around the pots, but they are everywhere this time of year. OK. Be Great. Chuck.

~ 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: 7/1- Here we go into the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower's 13th week from seed and this lady is kickin ass and taking names! I am continuing to water late in the afternoon on days when we don't get any rain and she seems to like it. I will also be top dressing her in about two weeks to keep the microbial colony fat and happy! 7/3- The weather continues to be hot and humid and the daily watering of the GG4 Sherbet FF continues. I also removed a few shade leaves that were below the canopy, as well as some in the middle of the plant that were blocking a lot of light to new shoots. 🎉HAPPY 4th of JULY!🎉 7/5- Early this morning we had a thunderstorm pass through early in the day, which provided about an inch of rain in a short time. I went ahead and watered in the afternoon, but only gave the GG4 Sherbet FF approx. 3g of well water from the garden hose. 7/7- The daily watering continues, as does our blistering hot🔥weather. All is well with the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower and today, after watering, I got under the trellis net and removed a bunch of shade leaves that were growing straight down through the net doing absolutely nothing but sucking up nutrients better used elsewhere on the plant. Stick a fork in another week for the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower. This beautiful cultivar has gone through a tremendous growth spurt and I am hoping to see her begin to transition into flower over the course of the next couple of weeks... stay tuned! 😎✌️ Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Week 12 D86 Flowering 35-40 days since stigma started showing. She is growing really well, for now what ever all the little rust spots were are gone. Still not solid explanations as to what it was or to as why it came up. Made a hard choice. And snipped the roots that were drinking from the plate, as this could of been the cause as to why this was happening on otherwise a healthy looking plant. Lowered the PPM from 1550 down to 1250 and will bring her down another 3-600 over the course of the next week and then another 2-300 the following week and keep her on regular 700ppm feeds of just bloom, but candy overdrive and B-52. All other nutes will be pulled over the next 2 weeks, gradually and not all at once neither, don't want to shock her into a def, just want to make sure all this crap is flushed from her. Big bud, she got her last feed of that today and that's her done on that now. She was started on her normal mix - 300ppm. RH is holding at a steady 65 temp is 26, 21c with lights off. 14/3/22 Added my 2nd intake fan was able to bring down the RH down as low as 53% with the 2 on full blast. Rooms RH is at 46% dehumidifier has been running 24/7 since I got it. Not good enough though. It works but looks like I'm going to get a 370watt 25l (meaning, it takes 25l out of the air every 24hrs, the 1 im using now is a 60watt that gets rid of 2l every 8hrs). It'll do in an hour what this machine takes 8hours to do. So it'll actually use less energy overall. 18/3/22 Plant is coming on nicely, putting on lots of bud mass, hopefully it'll keep packing on bud as there is not much in the way of sugar leafs it'll just be nice dense bud. For the last 24 hrs I've thrown her into a hard flush, 6l of water with 2 flushes one last night 1 tonight after each flush 50ml with sensi cal mag extra 1ml/50ml was given so the plant wouldn't go into full flush and the nutes left behind will break down helping nute uptake. Very important to introduce some cal as if you flush for too long and have a high build up of salts you'll cause a form of nute lock and throw plant into the flushing phase. So always use some cal mag on top to break down the nutes you are trying to flush. Thanks for reading gottagrowsometime

No complaints this week. All 4 of the ladies are flowering well, pistils are all over the plants. Bruce banner will be a very frosty plant judging by how she was the 1st to start producing tricomes on her leaves. They went from drinking every 2 days to at least once a day. Im excited to see how well the buds produce and swell up over the next 2 weeks..ill make sure to continue to do everything on part to stay dialed in on the ladies. Will keep yall updated in my next upload😎✌️🏽

Tangerine Band grew excellent. She was the biggest plant in the run of 4. She grew vigorously and has some really frosty colas on her. She actually got too big for my grow space. I am cutting her down today and everything looks great. Thank you Exotic Seeds, Spider Farmer, and Athena nutrition. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Sorry my video cut off mid harvest and I lost the last half of the Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

After locking them out for close to a week , I managed to get them going again. Just waiting for some Amber trichomes to show up now.

Day 65, 17th of November 2020 Happiness! Streching has stopped creating my buds. (Seems to be doing it). I am waiting for the red colour to be appeared.... hopefully soon she rewards me with that too. Looking strong and nice I am happy. Only thing to do is to wait ✋ Some lollipopping (defoliation) has been done and also removed all the old LST's as the plant remains in shape from now. Fertilization is still the same like before happens every 2nd day with the ratio and mix above. The lamp is on 11.30 min and off 12.30 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -30 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.30 pm.

Lol this plant says it all I think...my only regret is I never cloned.Never seen anything like it,unique strain.In fact it's unique in so many ways.Cant wait,although this looks like a 10/11 week flowering to me.

La cuarta semana ha llegado y nuestras tres amigas están entrando en una fase espectacular. Comparadas con la semana pasada, el cambio es muy evidente: los cogollos han ganado bastante volumen, están mucho más formados y la resina empieza a cubrirlos por completo. El armario cada vez huele más a floración y las tres siguen avanzando a muy buen ritmo. 🍭🌸 🍡 Mochi La más alta sigue siendo una auténtica protagonista. Respecto a la semana pasada, sus flores han engordado claramente y las colas están mucho más definidas. Se aprecia una cantidad de resina enorme y una estructura de cogollos cada vez más compacta. Mochi está entrando en su mejor momento. 💎 🃏 Jinx Jinx ha dado un cambio espectacular. Sus cogollos están mucho más grandes y densos que en la semana 3, con una cobertura de tricomas que ya llama muchísimo la atención. Mantiene una estructura muy equilibrada y está llenando prácticamente todos sus puntos de floración. Una auténtica explosión de flores. 🔥 ? Jellybean Jellybean tampoco se queda atrás. Comparada con la semana anterior, sus flores han ganado muchísimo cuerpo y ya presenta numerosas colas bien formadas. Está especialmente cargada de resina y mantiene ese aspecto sano y vigoroso que la ha acompañado durante todo el cultivo. 🍬✨ Semana 4 de floración superada y el cuento se pone interesante. Las tres están evolucionando a toda velocidad: más volumen, más densidad y, sobre todo, muchísima más resina. Ahora empieza la parte en la que cada semana promete una sorpresa nueva. 🌱💎 Saludos y buenos humos amigos growers 🐭💚

Day 33: What an amazing height and bud gain in just 3 days! Lady #1 is 67 cm tall now, her sister a tad smaller. Both still have a great color, and I dared to cur away just the lowest branches and leaves that do not look like they could gain height in time. Really enjoying this strain so far! At the end of their day, they are a bit dropping leaves, so clearly no hunger for more light. The impressive growth speed continued on their buds: Tallest lady at 70 cm now. Their next morning shows growth is still at an impressive 5 cm/day as lady #1 with her leaves erected again stretches now 72, the maximum of my previous growth. Pulled the lights as close as possible to the ceiling and hope they won’t make it much more than 1 m. I activated the Sansi 30 W folded wings LED to give them somewhat of a morning and evening light and to add some more light to their overlapping center branches in the middle of "their" day. Sadly that’s causing some interference to the timelapse videos, but I can’t say they’re perfect if it wouldn’t. Watching the timelapse video of day 34, I have the feeling the additional light rather irritates them. Maybe the interference is not only visible for electronic eyes. I’ll keep it off next day for comparisons. Day 35 shows stretch speed has reduced indeed and they seem to be concentrating on leaf and bud growth instead. 75 cm, so we are currently at "only" 3 cm/day. Watered them with a HPE/Bud growth mix again last night, about 1 l each. Well, forget my words about reduced growth. After they recovered during the night, we are at 77 cm for lady #1. Which measured at 78 with hanging leaves in their day’s evening. I must have missed a day number – day 36 concludes their 5th week. I gave them another 2 l of fertilised water each and will lave them for the weekend again. Video shows that growth concentrates now more on leaf and bud development than on gaining height. So I guess my 160 cm tent will be sufficient. For a moment I was worried, but it looks like stretch is over. Anyway, time to rearrange the camera next week. Leaves are running out of focus.

Aparecieron unas pequeñas manchitas en las hojas más viejas, se realizó el trasplante a maceta de 5 lts y se regaron foliarmente con Knactive por estas hojas amarillas que comenzaron a salir y para que tomaran de buena manera el trasplante. Seguimos ... Pronto se viene la floración
