🌱 Day 57 - Start of the Second-to-Last Flowering Week 🌱 Hello, Grow Friends! Today marks the start of the second-to-last flowering week—Week 9 overall, and Week 5 of flowering. 🌿 I’m getting more and more excited as my first grow nears its end. As I approach harvest, I’ve decided, based on my research, to stop feeding nutrients and stick to just pH-adjusted water for the final two weeks. 💧⚖️ Watering Routine: I’ll keep the same watering schedule—1 liter every two days, which is about 10% of the pot volume. 🌱💧 This should be enough to flush out the remaining nutrients, ensuring a clean finish for the plant. Temperature & Humidity: The temperature remains stable between 19-23°C, which I believe is ideal for this stage of the grow. 🌡️🍂 No more high temperatures to worry about! The humidity is fluctuating between 45-58%, and I’m keeping a close eye on it to stay below 60%. 💧🔍 Everything seems on track for now. 🌿 Plant Health & Growth: The plant still looks very healthy overall. 🌱💪 However, I’ve noticed that in the past three days, there haven’t been any visible changes in the size of the buds. 🤔 It could just be that I’m not seeing the growth clearly, but the only noticeable change is the daily opening of new flower calyxes. 🌸 Harvest Preparation: I’m already getting my equipment ready for drying after harvest. 🛠️ Once it’s time to cut, I’ll be hanging the plant to dry for the first 10 days. 🌿✂️ I want to make sure everything is set for a smooth drying process. Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, daily photos of the plant will be posted! 📸🌱 Day 62 - Last-Minute Decisions with Urgent Changes 🌱 Hello, my grow friends! Due to the trichome pictures I took on Day 61—which you can check out too—I’ve made an unexpected decision to harvest my plant a bit earlier than planned and make some changes. 🌿 Watering and Flushing: The last time I watered was on Day 61, using all the usual nutrients at the doses I mentioned before. But after seeing the trichome pictures, I decided to start a light flush today. I gave the plant 4 liters of plain water to begin flushing and will now only water lightly on Day 64. After that, no more water until harvest on Day 67. 🌑 Dark Period: From Day 66 to Day 67, I plan to keep the plant in darkness. I’m not entirely sure if this will make a difference, but I’m curious to try it out. ✂️ Defoliation: The plant is doing well, and I’ve done a thorough defoliation. I removed all leaves that aren’t sugar leaves or directly attached to the buds to improve air circulation and reduce the risk of mold as I approach the end of the grow. 💭 Trimming Decisions: I’m still undecided about whether to do a wet trim or a dry trim. Based on what I’ve read, especially regarding the yield from trim, I’m leaning towards dry trimming, as it might give me more usable trim material. I can feel the plant entering its final phase, and I’m getting really excited about the results and what the next few days will bring. Remember, I post a video update every day. If you have any tips or suggestions, I’d love to hear them! Until next time! 🌱

Here we go for another run. I was recently made aware that a seedy I had germinated was not what i thought I was, so here I am making it right with a tastebudz seed directly from their website. 😁 The strain I have chosen for this run is moon berry. Germinated in a coco coin that has been soak in water with a little bit of mycroboost from living soils. At 25 degrees and between 70-80% humidity. This run will be an organic living soils run. Coco coin has been planted straight into her final pot, which is a 5gal fabric pot. Soil is previously amended but was only used for a week. Using Biobizz light mix and worm humus along side living soils amendments and beneficials. Mulch is made up of cover crop which was chopped dropped and reseeded. Soil also has worms in. Light is marshydro led 150 watt first week running only 1 at 25% 45cm away from soil. Light have been running 20 hours a day this week now dropping to 18 while the power is upped to 50%. Only one 4” fan running atm with no extractor this week and only this seedling is in the whole 80x80cm tent. I am buzzing to get this going. Let’s get this work! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

What a journey it was growing this plant. I flowered the full 16 weeks. I should have known It would not be easy to do indoors. I would not have expected to get such large dense colas from the plant I vegged. The amount of stretch was crazy in flower. And the fact that all the nodes filled in with buds makes this a really good plant for yield. This was my highest-yielding plant so far. I was able to train her just right so I didn't run out of space but that is one of the main considerations for growing this plant. She does not like to be too hot. Anything over 78 F and she was getting stressed. Was growing alongside two other 8-week strains that favored the conditions fine when it got above 80 a few days . Rained 3 weeks in a row and the humidity was very high I got some bud rot the last few days of flower only on the biggest colas. I lost 1/5 of the harvest but still managed a very good yield. The smell is piny, herbal and flowery and when smoke almost doesn't taste like cannabis but like some herbal smoke. It is also some of the smoothest weed I've smoked. The high is also very unique and while there is a little bit of a body high it feels more like a reverberation from the intense head high. Will make you productive and alert and focused. High lasts about 2 hours. But I still need to cure. I hope the trippy comes out more with time. Lost 100 grams to bud rot but good news I still jarred 17.4 ounces of trimmed good stuff. I burned the bad stuff and the trim in my fire pit and got a contact high at least. Hope I never have to do that again. Trimming took 6 hours. I started by bucking down the hangers and carefully inspecting inside every bud and sat aside anything that was even suspected of bud rot. I trimmed and jarred once's up as i went as try to to keep things from getting as contaminated as possible. Once i was done through that i went though the suspect buds and removed the good bits and have in a separate jar just for myself to smoke out the bong asap. and burned the bad stuff in the fire pit. If I see it start to turn bad I'm just going to toss it. No need to be smoking moldy buds. The rot really only affected the tops of the biggest colas in the center. Had I not suffered the bud rot the yield would have been 21 ounces! Was going to mark the final yield based on what was good but that damn auto flower mutant I just grew messed my yield ratio up lol , and I technically grew the bud I just can't smoke it, and that is its potential for the conditions I gave it. So i am counting it as 21. I feel like If I did it again perfectly I could get 2.5 due to the fact i still have quite a bit of space I could have stretched into. While she did stretch a lot from mid to late flower it's not as much as I expected and I had a little more room that I could have veged another week or two. I really though it was going to be to the ceiling with tall skinny lanky buds So i flipped to flower I few weeks later than I had with my other grows. I was not expecting these cannon buds. Seem's like having the lights a the top of the tent and having them as powerful as they can be without any extra stress or harm to the plants decide where they need to stretch to and find the sweet spot themselves. After curing for 17 months I needed to make room for nee stuff so decided to gave pressing this stuff into rosin another try with pretty good results! I tried to upload pictures but not working wt the moment but I got over 15 percent yield which was way better than when it was fresh. I re-moistened the buds overnight in a container with a screen and a damp towel at the bottom and seemed to help a lot. A lot of the terps has faded ad aged but I think i had a nice pleasant mellow pine earthy flavor. The dabs hit you a little harder and faster than the flower which is nice.

So I thought the plants was going to be a flop but they turned it around, really long time tho for a auto flower, I could of ran photos with a better yield, but never the less these look like 10/10 nugs and smell amazing i can't wait to see how these look dried off.

Sunday the 14th of May Day 18 of 12/12 defoliation done still need to clean up the lower part of the plant a bit more I just hadn’t got the time to do them I will get back in on day 21 to clean up the bottom of the plants any branches that haven’t made up past the first trellis will definitely be removed and see how it’s looking all feeding same as previous week looks like the stretch is almost done and buds starting to form front left plant doesn’t look great but the other 3 are looking good nice bud sites for day 18 of 12/12

Late update, ran into some issues with the roots but the end product is still decent. Will make some tweaks next time, the problem was my transplant. I didn’t put the plants down deep enough and the soil was compacted to add. Plants start tipping over and nearly derooted when buds got heavier. Also was using too much nutes, will be switching to coco. Don’t think I used too much, soil just retained a lot of the nutes and water. Hoping coco will solve that issue for me.

COntinued to apply small amounts of pressure with LST but aside from that, letting her do her thing. Had to leave her for a few days and she got dehydrated, after a feed she perked up again but she's now started sucking all the nutes out of her lower growth. She has a lot so I'm hoping it doesn't affect the harvest. Would have preferred this to begin with my flush. For more content on all my grows please check out my Instagram! Link is on my profile!

The girl is progressing well. She is receiving around 25 DLI of light. I did a topping.

Just been playing about with a DIY co2 generator with sugar water and yeast considering paying out for a better system and meter but at least I can still monitor to a degree but I don't think this co2 meter is up to much cop...... I've made a co2 bucket with an air pump still using sugar yeast 2x tomatoes and a potatoe puree'd 1x teaspoon active brewers yeast and 2.5 liters of water in a 5l bucket with sealed lid ratchet strapped shut sat on a 20cm square heat mat set on a thermostat at 24c to 27c temps sits about 26c for a prolonged co2 release levels have defo increased spiked quite high then settled approx 1200 to 1500ppm or the meter is wank but either way its adding co2 just for how long though ? I've read up on the fungus method which last 6months so I'll be sorting that soon

14. Woche, P1 fällt morgen, die ist soweit gut denke ich (ca. 20% aufwärts Bernstein Trichome). P2 braucht leider noch ca. 1 woche länger. 93. Tag ist für P1 das Ende, sie wurde heute vorgetrimmt und zum trocknen aufgehängt. Ergebnisse gibt es wenn die P2 auch geerntet wird, denke nächste Woche um die Zeit. Aber eins kann ich euch versichern, is mit Abstand die schwerste die ich ist jetzt hatte😊🍀🍀. Gebt euch auch mal wie viele Trichome die gute produziert hat, Duft is noch sehr pflanzlich, Blüten sind ziemlich fest gewesen hoffe das es nach dem trocknen noch so ist. Alles in allem super Run. Hoffentlich is die gute bei den Top 10 das wäre ein träumchen, wobei ich es wirklich jedem gönne zu gewinnen und bei soviel starker Konkurrenz geht ich wahrscheinlich unter. ABER was ein geiler Contest trotzdem, hier ein dickes fettes Dankeschön an Zamnesia und Plagron für die Möglichkeit hier überhaupt mitmachen zu dürfen 🙏💙💜 98. Tag , werd die gute am Samstag/Sonntag je nachdem wie ich Zeit finde, umlegen und zum trocknen aufhängen.

- DAY 57 (30/07) First of all I would like to thank NobodysBuds for the time they have given me, giving me tools that I was not aware of. This week I’ll be back to feeding NPK. So, yesterday I started applying 4-way style LST. Everything that I will do relevant in the days of this week I will update it here in Week Comment. I am open to advice, I would be happy if you comment with what you would do in my place. - DAY 58 (31/07) FEEDING I reintegrated the power supply by decreasing K in favor of N I irrigated 2.5 liter of water with: - 2ml Micro - 1.25ml Bloom Solution PH: range 6.6/6.9 - DAY 60 (02/08) DEFOLIATION Cut some leaves at the bottom Day/night air temperature on average for this week: Day 31-36 °C. Night 22-26 °C.

Start of week 8! 2 more weeks according to the breeder, but if i had to guess I would say 10 or 11 weeks. I absolutely love the way this strain smells, like gym socks but in a good way.

Did a full leaf strip on everything this week, the pics and videos were taken 2 days ago I just havnt got around to uploading them. Everything bounced right back after the strip but the pots arent drying out as fast and humidity went down a little bit.

42FAST Buds - Gorilla Cookies Auto - 67 days The buds are getting bigger and bigger, coated with sugary trichomes. While the trichomes are still clear, we couldn’t resist trying a small bud from the lower branches, and we’re pleased with the results! But it’s still a bit early, so we’ll wait for full maturity before harvesting. Exciting times ahead—stay tuned for more updates!
