Day 38 The plant's are growing well and are very watered. I can start seeing the roots coming out of the 7L pots. I am thinking I about getting bigger ones in 2 -3 weeks. Other than that, I cropped the top of three of them and I start seeing great results. I can't wait to share the pictures of the evolution. Next week I will get them more space and start LST,. Plan ahead: Week 5-6: continue the vegetation stage. Starting of ventilation and Calmag week 7: I will replace the pots to 20L Week 8 start the flowering for 2 months

Beginning of week... She is doing her thing.. Slowly but surely lol.. Healthy as far as I can tell.. Maybe the reused coco is too reused? Idk. There is a bit of coco/perlite from my first grow in there lol.. Some others too.. But she is still truckin along.. Went up on the Armor Si (Silica) and a little on the FloraGro.. She does look like she is gonna beginning flowering very soon tho.. Pistils are forming slowly.. Much like the rest of this grow.. But she is starting.. I'm not going to start counting flower till I actually see that she is flowering.. Stretching and all.. That's how I like to count flower.. Always seems to line up perfectly when you count flower that way.. Even with photoperiods.. Not from the 12/12 flip because there is still 2 weeks of transition. Anyways.. Another week in the making... Next day... So my Mars Hydro is crapping out. I have to drop it down to 20 inches from the canopy and run it at 75%.. So pissed.. It glows when it is powered off and still plugged in.. And if I turn it on while the power is set to 100%.. It just blinks until I turn it down to 75%.. I can have it set to 75% and it will turn on like normal.. But I need to use 100% power.. And Mars Hydro sucks with responding to emails apparently.. I'm gonna have to buy a new one and return this POS.. Then hopefully buy a new stronger light for my 2x2.. I am so pissed.. Mars Hydro sucks.. The build is amazing.. The components are awesome when they are not flawed.. But damn this is the 3rd light to crap out on me in 2 years.. I do nothing but run them 18/6 or 12/12.. Run 1 fan on top at the driver and heatsink and 1 under toward the diodes.. Nothing different.. I think I'm gonna buy the Wakyme J-2000.. It comes with 2 fans blowing on the heatsink.. Honestly, noise is not an issue to me.. Heat is.. I sleep with all my fans running already lol.. Its actually hard to sleep without them now hahah.. But yeah. It has a Meanwell driver.. Samsung diodes.. Dimmer.. And the fans.. I think it's my best bet at this point.. Fuck Mars Hydro.. They had 3 chances with me.. My Sunraise 1000 (blurple) is like 4 years old and still running strong.. Smh.. Mars Hydro is crap. How did they even get so popular??? I'm sure more people will realize how crappy they really are.. No name brand everything.. Runs hot as ass.. Craps out after 3 - 4 months.. So so pissed... Almost mid week.. I went ahead and pulled a couple branches down a bit.. The canopy is perfectly even.. It looks AwEsOmE! Lol Mid week.. Well, she seems to be doing a bit better than before, I'd say. Normally, my previous autos would be flowering and probably almost finished stretching by now.. Live and learn.. I hope all the Zkittlez Autoflower seeds aren't like this.. And hopefully this strain turns out pretty dank to be wasting a few extra weeks on growth but not getting much growth at the same time.. And I hope harvest doesn't come quicker than the swelling of the calyxes.. But shit happens.. I have Mars Hydro sending me a new driver/dimmer. I sure hope it's just "plug-in" because if I'm going to take this light apart, I'm just going to go with the Meanwell HLG-240H-54B.. From what I was told from LEDSupplier dot com.. The 240W would be better due to the different current. We are still trying to figure out if the dimmer is 0-10V to see if I can just keep using the Mars Hydro dimmer along with the MeanWell HLG-240H-54B.. That would be cool.. Sorry but Mars Hydro sucks.. I bet running a different driver would help alot of issues.. Maybe even run cooler. Anyways.. About the plant lol.. She is doing great.. The stiples are still showing some weird colors on the tips.. Doesn't seem like an issue.. Some plants have the stems change colors.. Some have pistils change colors.. Some have leaves change colors.. Maybe that is just in her genetics.. The pics that ILGM shows, it should be a pretty colorful strain.. Guess we shall see! But she is happy and healthy.. I think I'm going to stop using Hydroguard next week.. Just doesn't seem like it's doing much of anything.. I really only bought it to fight root rot when I attempt DWC which I am going to attempt again very soon.. Maybe after this grow... We shall see... Almost end of week.. Went ahead and defoliated/lollipopped a bit. She was getting too bunched together.. She is nice and opened up now.. 2 side branches stayed pretty short.. Not sure what that is all about.. Flowers are slowly forming at this point. Next week will be week 1 of flower and stretching should begin! She is still getting good light even with the power only being at 75%.. Just have it down lower.. Which I could get away with till harvest.. But fuck that. I ordered a new Mars Hydro TS 1000.. And Mars Hydro is also sending me a new driver/dimmer box to replace the old one.. Going to return the light and I still want to replace the stock driver with the MeanWell.. Trying to get more professional opinions before I attempt that tho.. So far, I am hearing to get the HLG-240H-54B.. The 150H (150W) doesnt have the correct current so I'd have to go with the 240H (240W) due to the output current and voltage to match correctly. Can't wait to try it out! End of week.. So I got a new Mars Hydro TS 1000 in.. It comes with a Moso driver instead of the old Juson driver.. Hmm.. Ok.. Seems to not heat up as much.. The diodes still get hot, but the lack of the driver heat should help keep things cool.. Nice... I am able to raise the light back up and run her at 100% power.. I went ahead and tied the branches down a little more.. There are 2 that are still staying a little short.. But I think it's the way I started the whole LST process.. I should have tied down a different 90° angle instead of the angle I used.. But live and learn.. Wont use that way again lol.. Other than that, the flowers are forming nicely.. Happy happy happy.. Next week will begin flower! Niceeee.. On to the next!!!...

7/29/24 week 8. Flipping is around the corner. I have to defoliate before the flip. I added recharge nutrient this week to help the ladies have a quick recovery. I'm only feeding recharge with a 3 gallon res fill. I usually fill up by at least 6 gallons. What are yalls experiences using recharge?

Soo far I flushed twice. Run off water ppm is 290-319-328 I noticed on all three girlz, the trichomes are milky/cloudy with very little amber on the leaves. I'm waiting for more amber. Hopefully by tuesday when the soil id totally dry more amber will a appear. I purchased another 3x3 tent because I know for sure my 2x2 tent will not be enough holding room. Funny thing, I trimmed the baby buds at the bottom that wasn't going to grow much. I placed it on the side in the tent for two days and decided to roll them up and smoke it. Surprisingly, I did get a high but the tatse was a little strong.

Willkommen zu meinem Growbericht der Gorilla Cookies Auto von 2Fast4Buds. Der Strain wurde 2022 zur besten Indica beim Autoflower World Cup gewählt. Laut FastBuds deren meistverkaufter Strain. Grund genug, den Strain zu testen. Ganz Aktuell wurde die Gorilla Cookies Auto von 2Fast4Buds hier bei den Grow Awards 2026 in der Kategorie Best Strain auf Platz 3 und in der Kategorie Best Autoflowering Strain auf Platz 1 gewählt. Das macht mich noch neugieriger... Für den Grow verwende ich 15 Liter ROOTiES Stofftöpfe. Ich war sehr zufrieden mit der Sonnenerde, deshalb habe ich nachbestellt. Sonnenerde hat seine Mischung für die Bio Hanferde letzten Oktober/November geändert. Jetzt sind da kleine Tonkügelchen drin und kleine Gipsstückchen. Laut Sonnenerde soll das die Erde luftiger machen. Auf den Fotos kann man die unterschiedlichen Mischungen gut erkennen. In den AirPots ist die alte Sonnenerde, in den Stofftöpfen die neue. So kann man das Wachstum in den verschiedenen Erden schön vergleichen. Die Smart Start Plugs von zamnesia hab ich wieder verwendet. Tag 64: 1,5 Liter Wasser. Tag 66: Die Gorilla Cookies Auto von 2Fast4Buds bekommt 1,5 Liter Wasser. Sie ist klebrig wie Leim und riecht tatsächlich nach frisch verlegtem Linoleum. Tag 68: 1,5 Liter Wasser. Tag 70: 1,5 Liter Wasser. Schön, das du dir meinen Bericht ansiehst. Schau gerne wieder rein 👋😎

ok so i had to make a lot of selections on which clones, and seeds would survive, Amherst Sour Diesel seeds were all garbage. All ASD went into the same soil as other clones and seedlings, ffof mixed with a light black gold starting soil. killed some slow moving clones and upped the rest. big flowering moves to come, they should have already happened, but VIPARSPECTRA HAS DELAYED MY SHIPMENT BY 3 WEEKS!!! So to say im annoyed is under phrasing things. I'm expermenting with coast of maine soil vs ffof

Got the trellis set for 20” another week of veg then flower time... still un sure which are male or female but pretty sure there all female by the looks of how there growing almost identical and how bushy etc they are ... pulled the seeds outta some purple Bubba Kush from the local dispensary.... I usually would be mad about seeds but hey I got about 25 perfect seeds for 20 bucks... PH levels are perfect with this natural spring water my town is running off of... temperatures are only dropping 2-4 Celsius at night.. and holding a steady 24 Celsius lights on... humidity is up when just after I water then it goes down to around 50 RH... in the last week they only grew vertical about half a inch but damm the new growth is killing it and catching up... still no cropping just LST and cut a few lower fan leaves to get some light downstairs... one of the fan leaves was 14” inches across........ nice fatty Indica leaves... couple more weeks Till flower time

Things are really looking up this week! This girls are growing FAST! And my problems are seemingly balancing out. What I did to remedy last weeks issue was let them dry out 3 days, then watered with 6.0 ph dechlorinated water. 2 days after I amended with 4-4-4, 2-8-4, and a bit of mycorhize and have been using 6.0 ph water to bring my soil ph down from almost 7. Today on day 28 I saw first flowering on 2 of the 3 girls 😇 So I have turned my lights up to 100% and pulled them back a few inches so the girls can adjust to the light. I'm stoked with Fastbuds and eager to get to harvest! Thanks for dropping by and God bless.

I’m feeding megacrop A+B full bloom +epsom+silica. Not much else to do. I expect the plant to be ready in 20 days, more or less. Last week I raised the light a little since I found damage on top leaves. I think I’ll change pot next growth. I’ve calculated that a bonsai style pot, bigger and shallower than my actual one, would contain at least 3 times the volume of medium. Day 64 - Damage is spreading on all small top leaves, I guess these were not frying because of lights. A full dose of megacrop it’s probably too much for a plant watered with a dripping system, I’ll keep than in mind for my next crop. Day 65 - Plant is drinking like crazy, yesterday it consumed much more than usual, almost 9 liters. I’m going refill the reservoir today with megacrop AB+epsom at 2/3 of the suggested dose.

Loving how these girls are growing Fastbuds mystery #1 finally catching up, and may possibly in the end being a better producer than the RQS plant, which is surprising to me because of how badly I stunted this plant. Got me curious how good this plant could’ve been

Yesterday she was cut, run off ppms had been at zero for at least 4 days. For what this plant went through in terms of heat and humidity, I believe the outcome of roughly a kg wet is not too bad. Bud have a certain density to them but far away from what I prefer. However the presents of an abundance of Reepes is undeniable. ATM she smells very sweet with a hint of Creme and a bit of pine. She must be quite mold resistant, as the other plant in the tent with her was quite mold riddled and the Afghan didn’t catch anything in that tiny growspace.

Den 69. Den 42. květu. Tento týden holky ještě pěkně dorostly, ale poslední tři dny už je vidět, že se růst postupně zastavuje a rostliny se soustředí hlavně na zrání a nabírání objemu palic. Malý a velký Critical Orange Punch vypadají jako dvě úplně odlišné kytky, a to nejen vzhledem, ale i výnosem a vůní. Menší má krásně zbarvené oranžové pestíky a příjemnou sladší vůni. U toho většího jsem musel svázat korunu dohromady, aby se pod tíhou palic nelámaly větve. Manipulace už je docela o nervy, protože ty palice jsou opravdu těžké. Frozen Biscotti má taky velmi pěkný výnos a palice začínají přecházet do fialových odstínů. Vůně se od minulého týdne zase posunula, cítím v tom zázvor a sladký podtón, připomíná mi to jemné zázvorky. Opravdu zajímavý profil a těším se na výsledek. Trichomy se začínají pěkně kalit, zatím bych řekl půl na půl mléčné a čiré, jantarové jsem zatím moc nezaznamenal spíš jen na listech. Na rostlinách je vidět lehké přehnojení, hlavně na sugar leaves, ale zároveň palice krásně nabobtnaly, takže už do toho nebudu nijak zasahovat a nechám to v klidu dojet. Teď už nemá smysl dělat větší změny. Aktuálně se soustředím hlavně na stabilní podmínky, hlídám teplotu a vlhkost, aby všechno doběhlo bez problémů až do sklizně.

Welcome growfessors to the harvest of Mandarin dreams! These 5 ladies got chopped down this week, the three pheno 1 strains have nice dense buds, very sticky! One pheno 2 is very fluffy, airy buds and the other pheno 2, is someplace in between, not rock hard, but close to it. Last time I'll be growing this strain, she was easy to grow, but not a smoke I enjoy, the indica hits harder as the buds cure and I'm not that interested in couch lock. Will update in 7-10 days with dry weight.

Der greenhouse dünger ist sehr gut bisher. Keine Mängel zu sehen. Zusätzlich gibt's noch etwas phosphor plus (Hesi) und calmag (biobizz).
