It is getting more humid in the grow tent this week. I need to do another refresh on my DWC water right away. It's smelling slightly stale. I should have done it sooner and not waited for the smell to be noticeable. Anyways it's looking good and will enjoy a refresh today. So I touched a leaf today to remove it and after smelling my hand I had a urge to cut her down and smoke it. She's got an omg sweet aroma covering your hands that just makes me wanna pinch a top off and try it. I feel like a cat hit by the wiff of the nip. I'll been using sticks to handle from now on.

Week 12 Update — Gorilla Zkittlez Auto (FastBuds) Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms Medium: Scientetics Coco Stage: Late Flower / Ripening Status: Days from harvest ⸻ Overall Plant Status Week 12 marks the final stretch before harvest. Nutrient uptake has noticeably slowed, which is expected at this stage as the plant shifts energy away from vegetative processes and into final resin and terpene development. Trichomes are almost entirely cloudy, with harvest planned once approximately 15–20% amber is reached. Natural senescence has begun, with leaf fade becoming visible. Buds are fully formed, swollen, and resin production appears to be peaking. ⸻ Feed & Maintenance Log (Final Week) 12/6 — Late Flower Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.0 | 600 ppm • 4 ml Green Sensation • 0.5 ml Silicium Bloom • 18 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 6 ml Photo+ • ½ tsp Recharge Purpose at this stage: • Green Sensation: Low-dose PK and carbohydrate source to support final bud density and resin production without pushing excess nutrients. • Silicium Bloom: Maintains cell wall strength and stress resistance late into flower. • Coco B: Provides potassium-heavy nutrition to support terpene production and final swelling. • Pure Zym: Breaks down dead root matter, keeping the root zone clean as uptake slows. • Ruby Fulvic: Improves micronutrient transport and overall nutrient efficiency. • Photo+: Enhances photosynthesis efficiency during peak resin production. • Recharge: Supports microbial life to keep nutrient availability high despite reduced feeding. ⸻ 12/7 — Maintenance & Reset • Mild defoliation • Reservoir cleaned and remaining solution dumped Fresh mix: 1 gal RO | pH 6.1 | 500 ppm • 2 ml Green Sensation • 14 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Reduced EC to match slowing uptake. • Focused on potassium, enzyme activity, and nutrient mobility rather than growth. ⸻ 12/8 — Observation • Senescence becoming visible • Lower leaves beginning to fade naturally This is a healthy sign of nutrient drawdown and internal remobilization late in flower. ⸻ 12/9 — Reduced Uptake Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.2 | 366 ppm • 2 ml Green Sensation • 12 ml Coco B • 4 ml Pure Zym • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Further reduction in nutrient strength to avoid salt buildup. • Supporting resin maturation rather than biomass growth. ⸻ 12/11 — Ripening Additives 1 gal RO | pH & ppm not measured • 10 ml Winter Frost • 5 ml Car-Bou-Naria • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Purpose at this stage: • Winter Frost: Signals the plant to finish strong by accelerating ripening, resin production, and terpene expression. • Car-Bou-Naria: Provides readily available carbohydrates to fuel final metabolic processes without adding nitrogen. • Ruby Fulvic: Maintains nutrient mobility even with minimal feeding. ⸻ 12/12 — Final Low-EC Feed 1 gal RO | pH 6.0 | 255 ppm • 10 ml Winter Frost • 5 ml Car-Bou-Naria • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic • 4 ml Pure Zym Purpose at this stage: • Extremely light feeding to support ripening while allowing the plant to finish clean. • Encourages full terpene and cannabinoid expression without pushing nutrients. ⸻ Harvest Outlook • Trichomes: Nearly 100% cloudy • Target harvest: 15–20% amber • Plant is in full ripening mode with minimal nutrient demand • Senescence progressing naturally This run is finishing exactly how a dialed-in coco grow should — controlled fade, clean root zone, and intentional nutrient tapering leading into harvest.

F29 beginning of 4th week of flowering SD3 - initially sweet orange then engine grease SD2 - initially sharp vaseline then engine grease mixed with kerosine.I personally like SD2 more. Even with the stunted growth. SD3 is getting yellow from the bottom and i dont know what to do. I had thrips so i sprinkled diatomaceus earth on top of the soil and rubbed some on the fan leaves and stems. Sorry for the reddish pics

Hey Growers. With the Gaia Green all I have to do is water for the first 3-4 weeks, then top dress. So I’m already on auto pilot. Love it!! When I introduced the fan one did slump over. I propped her up out of the mud on a bambo X and she found her way back free standing. Just watering with cal pow water and watching for light stress. This XS2000 is a powerful unit and I’m sure would rock a 3x3 perfectly. Happy Growing 🌱

11/13 Started Super Cropping on Amy, Gina, and Rosa, Judy is just at her 4th node, so i reached the second node and twisted the stalk until I could feel the fiber break and then I bent the stalk in the direction that I will ultimately tie down in, not long enough yet to get to the edge of the pot. In an hour I checked on the girls and they were all back to normal. 11/14 Watered 500 mil 6.5 PH tied down Amy, Gina and Rosa, broke a leaf off of Amy while bending 11/15 Spritz with Yucca foliar spray reapplied LST girls are looking great really healthy and green 11/16 Reapplied LST and accidentally broke the main stem on Gina, decided to go ahead and top her since the break was at a node and impossible to tape, so I guess we are also testing topping as well as going Organic. Adjusted lights to 25 inches above Judy the shortest girl. Brewed up an Organic Tea using 1 Cup Nature's Living Soil Concentrate, 1 Cup EB Stone Earth Worm Casings, 1 Tablespoon Unsulphered Molasses, 1 Tablespoon Fish Meal with Kelp, let the tea brew for 18 hours. 11/17 Fed each girl 1 Liter of Compost Tea reapplied LST the thought is the plants are three weeks in the soil and are growing at a healthy pace (with the exception of Judy), I want to make sure they have enough food in the soil available to them now to take them to flower. Next week I will apply dry amendments and 2-8-8 fertilizer to be available that first week of flower. 11/18 Out of town so gave them a light spritz of Yucca before lights on and that's it. 11/19 Man one day without reapplying LST and it freaking shows!! I had to go to town and really work the stems back into shape, really started to figure out what I am actually trying to achieve with spreading the stems out to expose as many sites as possible and trying to get as even a canopy as possible. So at the end of it I had to Super Crop a few stems on Rosa that had grown a little too long, tied down the rest of her stems and tucked the large leaves as best as I could to get as many sites as possible exposed. Applied the same approach to Gina but since she was inadvertently topped little easier to do, also I can see since I fed them the Compost Tea Gina has bounced back from her chop and her leaves are upright and pointing to the light, the two new "main stems" are growing outward and are close to the Mesa that i am creating. Judy is the weird little runt with tight, tight nodes like she's hiding something.....Trudy Judy.....So I just bent her main down and moved the stems as best as I can, I would love to let her just do her thing but I also wanted to try ScrOG on this run but we'll see after next week. Amy, Amy, Amy my pouty princess I don't think she likes being shorter than Rosa because she's become almost shy, not as aggressive growth that she was showing before. Reapplied LST on her main and tucked leaves, also started defoliating some of the lower leaves off of her. I'm going to start plucking lower leaves off of all of the plants going forward to prepare them for the switch to flower. The girls are all showing their sex and I can safely say that they are all Ladies, I'm seeing pistils forming and sites starting to show. I soaked the ladies down with 1/4 tsp Nectar of the Gods Bloom Khaos and 16 oz PH 6.2 bottle. Checked back on them 3 hours later and all of their faces are pointing to the lights, the leaves look amazingly green with no noticeable deficiencies. The Ladybugs are going to town and I don't know what I'm more excited about the amazing growth of the girls or seeing a ladybug crawling on a leaf!

**** Week 13 growth - February 27 to March 5, 2021 - Week 4 Flower ***** This girl weathered this week better than others in the tent due to her height......some times it pays to be short😂......the light stress was less for her. She is certainly not growing a lot of bud so hope that what we do yield is fire💪 She is a pretty girl with leaves up and a very nice colour. Curl from heat is minimal or from other factors. She is starting to show some small signs of a little too much nitrogen but over all very nice. Frost production is taking off later in the week and showing good levels on fan leaves as well. Trusting there is going to be some good swelling of the buds in the weeks ahead. She took longer through transition week and I would say she is actually a good 5 days behind the other girls so she may run a little longer in flower at the end as well getting more in the 10 week range??? Time will tell. Light intensity increased this week. Pushed up to 525 watts and then to 550 watts at the end of the week. This got the a little hot by the end of the week though. Working with a new light and finding the sweet spots takes a run or two. Learning how the girls grow anyway so the whole run is a lot of learning......its all good😀 Nutrients were pushed a little at the end of last week and the start of this week so backing off a bit more again. Given that they were pushed with light intensity they started showing some signs of nutrient issues. It’s good though as there is reaction time and back off to plain water feed for a couple of days at the end of the week and into week 5. Week 5 is going to be the start of the last stage of flower feed and work with that for two weeks, then stop feeding at the end of week 6........the plan so far anyway. Mimosa is longer strain though so they may get another week.👍 Little more detail....... Feb 27/21 - Day 22 - big feed day - all IPP line plus silica @ 1ml, CalMag @ 1ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml, enzymes @ 1.5ml - 1650ppm and 6.1pH - 4L Feb 28/21 - Day23 - Microbe day but also added some CalMag - Natures Candy @ 1.5ml, Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal, Magnifical @ 1.5ml, Micro @ 1ml, Bloom 1.5ml, Terpinator @ 2ml - 950 ppm and 6.0pH - 3L - leaf colour almost looks light today. Mar 1/21 - Day 24 - dry out day. Mar 2/21 - Day 25 - plain water - 300ppm and 6.1 ph - 4L - light power pushed up to 550 watts today. - (too much from 16” to 20”........note!!) Mar 3/21 - Day 26 - plain water with two suppliiments - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 2ml. - 525ppm & 6.0pH - 4L - stripped some leaves today......sticky in the middle😃😃👍👍 Mar 4/21 - Day 27 - no water added today - light power reduced today 450 watts. - been going too hard with intensity. Seeing leaf curl on other girls in the tent. - joys of diagnosing cannabis😂 - starting with backing off light and reduce ppm going in but not the ml👍 Mar 5/21 - Day 28 - hit with microbes again to help with stresses. - recharge @ 1 tsp/gal, Nature’s Candy @ 1.5ml - 375ppm and 6.0pH - 3L Moving right along we are through 4 weeks now and moving past the middle of flower.

So I did a panick check 1 day after week 2 started, due to weather CHANGING AGAIN!!! 😡 I'm using 3 different weather apps, 2 are approved by the govermental weather authorities however it's called in English.. And after each app told me we were about to have a sunny week, the weather changed THE DAY I PUT THE LADIES IN!!! IMAGINE! Climate change is absolutely devestating, the weather doesn't change frequently on a weekly, but rather on a daily/hour basis. This is annoying me to a point where I think I won't do many outdoors again in the future. Probably will try to find another indoor opportunity. North Germany SUCKS. I had to waste so many badass quality, super frosty buds already due to botrytis and/or mold infections. It's just not fun anymore. All the time, work and money I put into this is not really paying off. Indoors is no problemo at all, outdoors whatsoever is not possible in North Germany, unless you don't give a fuck about losing many plants to mold.

I don't believe I'll need to do any daily updates for the rest of the grow. Everything is dialled in and I'm ready to use what I've learnt for the next grow. I will be adding to this week in regards to writing up a summary of everything I've learnt so far and how I expect to improve upon the next.

Hello, fellow growers I thank you for having dedicated your attention to my garden. I greet and thank all of you passionate growers who like me make this site a source of inspiration for others...for those who already grow and for those who have never grown Sometimes I still wonder if we are the ones growing our beloved plants or they are the ones growing us, teaching us something about nature... with every growth... with every failure... with every harvest. Every time... she will know how to surprise you 🤗
