~ 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:
8/18- Week 5 of flower's here for the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower and she has transformed into an absolutely gorgeous specimen of this strain, and hopefully it will become a good example of this strains capabilities!
Our weather continues to be cool and dry with nighttime temp's dipping into the upper 50's℉ with daytime highs in the mid to upper 70's℉, and the daylight has dropped to just over 13 hours now.
8/20- I am still watering the GG4 Sherbet FF daily but, with the cooler weather and with the plant at this stage of flower, her water requirements have dropped a bit so I'm only giving approximately 4-5g of well water after the sun goes down to allow it to soak in thoroughly throughout the soil.
8/22- Along with my daily watering, I am also constantly going through the plant and removing any dead or yellowed leaves. I'm also checking over the entire plant including the undersides of leaves looking for early signs of insect infestation or their eggs being laid, as well as looking for signs of deficiencies and as flowering progresses mold and fungus.🤢
8/24- With five weeks of flower behind her now, the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower has passed the halfway point and only has another 2-3 weeks to go! My only hope is that our weather continues to cooperate and at least stay dry to quell any fears of bud rot on her beautiful flowers!
Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Did some defoiliating, and fed Espoma Fruit and flower 9-4-3
(3 tbls top dressed) help to aid in the transition from veg to flowering, after 21st days get shorter but slowly. Might do light deprivation to induce an early harvest.
I just posted a video of Red Sky #3, brother of Red Sky #1
One branch will get dusted on #1
Good news #1, clones very well with minimal effort stuck in potting mix which has 5-1-1 starter fertilizer plus myco, and tricoderma. After she settles in I will switch to top dressing with Espoma Fruit and flower 4-9-3 plus myco have 3 good clones to work with. Oh yeah apparently I put 4-9-3 in transplant pot so I guess it means nutes total is 9-10-4 maybe a mid to late top dress to finish but we see what happens!.
The 5-1-1last about 6 weeks. And the 4-9-3 will last 3-4 weeks at best
We see how she is doing in a month. Then I'll know better. From here on out this diary is all about my freaky princess!👍
Red Sky #1
she is getting to tall so I took clones to bring her down to size
I will keep one mother plant, and monster crop the rest! Diary coming soon!

Raised the lights today. Yesterday I replaced water and cleaned the tank after noticing chlorophyll build up around pump. Overnight it seems the two of them drank a half liter. I topped off the aerovoir reservoir this morning.

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

OCTOBER 18th to OCTOBER 24TH
Sunrise: 08:31 | Sunset: 18:50 | Total Daylight: 10:19
Weather over the past week saw several consecutive days of full cloud cover and rainy periods. Greenhouse has held temperatures during the day, and only dropped below 10C once (Day 168). Good periods of sun on Day 167 and 168, with the forecast looking sunny for the next few days. I suspect that will help along the ripening process as the plants process nutrients from the fan leaves during the fade. There hasn't really been any issues with humidity levels, as it has hovered in and around 40% to 45% RH
Both Blue Dynamite specimens are near ripe, with many trichome heads cloudy, some clear, and few amber. Suspect it is a matter of days before they are ready to be harvested.
DAY 162
2L of plain rainwater (cold) applied to each specimen.
DAY 163
n/a
DAY 164
15C in greenhouse in the morning; Cloudy and cool day overall, but greenhouse holding temperatures above 19C and plants are clearly going through senescence.
DAY 165
Steady rain overnight, with armer temperatures; Greenhouse held overnight at 17.5C and 50% RH. Cool, cloudy and rainy day (high of 9C, 97% RH, but greenhouse and the associated equipment performing as designed and holding temperatures at 19.5C with humidity ranging from 40% to 45%.
DAY 166
Cool and rainy overnight (6C intermittent light rain). Greenhouse held to 16.5C and 41% RH. Noticed some droop so provided 1L of plain rainwater (cold) via drip in the afternoon to each specimen and everyone perked up thereafter. Temperatures reached 19C for much of the day, with 43% humidity. Temperatures outdoors were a high of 7C, with 80% humidity (or more) during the day. Remained overcast for much of the day, but there was a couple of periods of increased brightness. Plants are doing well, all fading;
Blue Dynamite #1 has produced very nicely sized typical hybrid shaped flowers, that are probably the prettiest in the garden. They sparkle as a result of better than average trichome production, smell of grapefruit and sweet berries and have slight tints of pink and purple at the edges of calyxes. I really ought to have taken a cutting of this one. Trichome heads are mostly clear, some cloudy at the heart of flowers, while at the edges of sugar leaves there are a substantial number amber coloured heads visible.
Blue Dynamite #2 has produced fairly sizeable flowers, that have a bit of a sativa leaning and moderately open structure with long standing pistils. Trichome production is better than average and there are some soft pink hues beginning to show at tips of calyxes. Most pistils have wilted, but there remains a quantity of white pistils at the apex of the flowers. This plant smells of citrus and berries. Trichome heads are mostly clear with some cloudy at the heart of the flowers, while amber heads do appear near the tips of sugar leaves.
DAY 167
Overnight low of 2C, greenhouse held at 12.5C and 41% RH. After a cloudy cool morning, the sun broke through and warmed up the greenhouse shortly after the noon hour. Exhaust fan even came on intermittently to reduce temps below 24C. Humidity was ideal all day, in and around 40%.
After noting some droop, applied 1L of plain rainwater (cold) via drip to both Blue Dynamite specimens. This may be the last watering of the season. I think it will be possible to decommission the irrigation system for the winter over the coming weekend. I can pull 20L of water for use either for this crop and/or the mother tent.
DAY 168
Greenhouse 9.5C (-2C outside) in the morning with 40% RH. Sunny morning, with greenhouse warming to over 10C by 9:30AM; Exhaust fan kicked in to hold temperatures at 24C just before the noon hour. Both Blue Dynamite specimens are showing cloudy trichomes outnumbering clear ones, and outside of the margins of sugar leaves, there are few amber trichomes present. Both plants are a mere few days away from harvest.

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!

I am increasingly convinced that I will have to cut GG3 first (probably at the end of this week, given the darkening of all those trichomes) and in at least a week (if not more) GG2
come on girls!

09/06 - DAY 43
- Slight yellowing and spotting on a few of Mo’s older fan leaves, thinking Mag deficiency. Everyday more and more trichomes coming in.
- Forcing Jane to open up by pulling her out.
09/08 - DAY 45
- Top dressed Mo w/ Worm Castings & Kashi Blend. Can see feeder roots everywhere under the cover, worms are active, and she’s sucking dry her reservoir every 1.5 days.
- Lowered light to 500-560PPFD at canopy. Humidity ~58%.
- Jane is starting to share her strawberry aromas. Mo smells like a sweet sugary treat
09/11 - DAY 48
- Switched over to only blooming/fruiting inoculants & top watered w/ compost tea.
Hopefully get ahead of any deficiencies.
- Mo is starting to drink 2 Gal in less than a day, along with the weekly top waterings. Thirsty girl 😃

👨🚀Salut les copains,👋
🌞 Nous sommes au 38ème jours de floraison,
Lors de ma visite j'ai été surpris par le changement de couleur de quelques feuilles sur les plantes. 🤔
Je n'ai pas beaucoup le temps de m'en occuper en ce moment, je passe juste les arroser et prendre quelques photos.
Intensité de la FC3000: 90%
Ventilation : Extracteur mars hydro 6 pouces avec filtre à charbon puissance : 4/10 (24h/24h) + 3 ventilateurs à l'intérieur ( ON 8/24h). ils s'activent à un horaire différent.
J'arrose environ tout les 4-6 jours avec 1.5L d'eau. (+ 1gr de bioenhancer/L eau un arrosage sur 2)
Venez me voir sur Instagram ✌️

Suffered a lot due to heat stress flipped light down to 350W as tent was running at 95f pots had also dried back to much and this seemed to really effect onset of pistil growth also ive started with expload today also taken ec higher after waiting a little at 1/4 strengh nutes until they bounced back watering is now at 48 hour intervals also all popcorn bud sites are being pinched off each watering also still having a 20% run off and discarding that .

Week 8: Steady Bloom & Vacation Prep
Update: 10.07.2025 | Day 58
Weather stabilized around 25°C with occasional rain - ideal conditions. Gave another mild dose of dissolved Biotabs + Bokashi juice (1:100). Rain refilled water tanks just in time: Vacation coming up! Midweek my grow buddy takes over (fingers crossed).
Here are the main characters:
Forbidden Runtz
Pure bloom focus now - minimal height gain. Sugar leaves turning frosty daily. Aroma intensifies: Sweet candy meets earthy skunkiness (yes, we're making that a word!). Buds point skyward, thickening noticeably. Pistils showing beautiful color variations - not just white anymore.
Green Crack
Surprise performer! Bud structure defied expectations: Fewer sites but chunky indica-style nugs instead of wispy sativa candles. Already sticky to the touch with impressive frosting. That glorious mango scent is creeping in - imagine it at peak swell! Easily 3+ weeks left.
Bruce Banner
She's still stretching like your yoga teacher!
Not full bloom yet – new shoots exploding everywhere. Bud sites multiplying like rabbits. Light frost/mild smell now… but genetics don’t lie. FastBuds Tangie flashbacks intensify. This will be explosive soon.
Wrap-up:
This grow's the anti-stress champ compared to last year's coco/nutrient math marathon. Just observing, responding, and trusting the plants.
Low-budget (Bokashi juice and only 1 smashed biotab), high-satisfaction. Learned from 2024 but 2025? Pure joy.
I hasn't always to be complicated!
Catch y'all next week growmies

Our Test #3 has already made me fall in love.
It is one of those plants that is doing well I would already promote it but to avoid the risk of speaking too soon, let's see what grass it will give us.
For each strain we have at least two plants there is also a specimen that is growing straight that you don't see in the photo for now for each strain of her I have two both excellent.
The plant that you see in the photo responded excellently to topping from the beginning and did not suffer the stress that this technique brings the fertilizers for flowering that go from a few days after I made the switch to mid-week (it is therefore considered vegetative the plant is still understanding that it is going to flower). I find myself very well when it comes to flowering with Palgron in vegetative I have some difficulty I have to ask the experts for advice on how to prepare the soil with their products. I think I will use Bat Mix or Super Mix next time or the excellent pellet from Zamnesia going to integrate Alga grow if necessary.
We did our best Zamnesia has put superb genetics and at home B&B we are working to show you the plants in all their possible meanings.
This plant like all the other photoperiodic ones has been worked with a topping x16 buds, simply repeating the topping technique without doing anything else than cleaning the leaves from time to time and now the branches that I believe do not give me good flowers at the bottom.
The 16 buds are perfectly aligned and it is very regular in growth.
The fertilizers for flowering have helped us to return in a very short time to a good balance now we go straight to making great buds.
We are still using soil, fertilizers and all the additives recommended by Plagron 100% organic.
The plant has been flowering for 3 days, in the diary I leave it indicated as the last week of vegetative but we move on to the fertilizers for flowering.
We have now moved on to the early flowering program that keeps the same additives Power Roots, Sugar Royal, Pure Zym and adds the flowering stimulant Power Buds. Now the basic fertilizer is now Alga Bloom with which I get along very very well even more than Alga Grow that sometimes I have to understand well how to dose in some particular cases (
topping). Probably try to prepare the soil with Plagron Super Mix or with the Zamnesia Pellet.
The Green Sensation will arrive as the hero of the late flowering and at the same time it will be time to remove power roots and a week later the Pure Zym enzymes.
---- Decide on the right soil and calculate your fertilizer card based on the soil on the official website.
-- www.plagron.com
Try a seed of this strain that drives us crazy..
-------- Strain Coming Soon! Try another Zamnesia Masterpiece instead

Wow 😲 I was thinking this was going to be a total runt. As if turns out I am starting to think of it as having a lowryder auto. I know I know 🤣 it's not a lowryder. She's actually a Northern light crossed with Big Bud Auto from Seedsman. This little lady was barley 3 weeks old when I noticed her transitioning to flower. I was about to pull the plug and decided otherwise. I mean what could it hurt to grow her out. Anyway she's more than doubled in size and her bud sites are well formed, stacked up and just looking good.
Question? Would it be better to turn my 250 true watt down and move the light closer?,or run it full power and set it higher ?
