Day 42/56+: Wooooohooo these girls are doing great. The smells and look a in the room are hypnotic now. Seeing all of those fat, chunky heads bobbing around in the vortex that my Big Bertha fan pushes out is a joy. They are taking around 10L to get to a run off , every 3 days or so in the L.O.S FFT#1 is creating some nice long shaggy looking colas that smell nice and sickly sweet now. She is looking like she is ready to swell now too. hopefully the next 2 weeks will show the colas to be the chunks they want to be. she is a squat lady and would def have been better to have been left to grow taller. . In a very limited space/ box , trained more horizontal as she is now and you could have a very productive bonsai style grower. FFT#5 wow I love this girl. She is a full on show off now. She is pushing her terpines up my nose from just going above her now. If I venture to actually touch her buds , she becomes so excited that she doesnt want to let me go again. so tacky. she isnstartimgntomcplour her pistils little but is still looking fresh and bountiful. Her structure has been easy to work with in veg but is now so thick and woody that any bending her to my will would involve a team of us. lol FFT#7 Plods on with her domineering attitude to her space and is so productive now . her buds are not as long at this point as the #5 but are so many in number that her yield should be a good one. I would say she is probably going to go for longer than the other 2 testers before finishing but she is certainly worth the wait. Her smell is so fruit sweet now too. she has the biggest stem popping out of the soil and is a very thick structures girl. I would love to see her grown outside in a natural environment and think she would be a monstrous outdoor plant. Definitely the quickest grower for height even though she is tied down tighter than an insane monk. I will definately be producing more of these girls to play with their development potential and feel that you would have to make sure that you have the room for one of these to get her best out of her. so far these new strains are a winner for me. I am looking forward to going through the rest of the strains now. I plan 3 more in the next run so will scour the current tester grows for the likely victims to do next. These are winners already

Welcome to Week 6, Day 42 for the Sweet Seeds Gorilla Girl XL Autoflowering grow. All four of these lovely ladies are now fully into flower and the tent has filled up considerably. Even though this grow cycle is not going to produce the XL plants I was originally hoping for, this strain seems to have a lot of bud sites compared to other autos I have grown previously. Had these plants reached their full potential- I truly believe that this could/would have been a massive harvest. I fertilized them again in Week 6 with their final dose of a Grow based formula at 2 mls/gallon. They will be switched over a Bloom based fertilizer in Week 7 at a rate of 2.5 mls/gallon. I am still watering every 4th day and all four plants are receiving 3 litres each or 0.75 of a litre per plant per day. There is something killing off the foliage from the bottom up on the plant in the front of the tent on the left hand side. Not sure what the problem is so I am simply removing the dead/dying foliage as needed and hoping that she’ll have enough leaves to make it through to harvest. Mom’s Tip for Week #6- When it comes to Fertilizer- $Less$ = More… For me, successfully growing Cannabis indoors means trying to mimic what nature normally provides for free. Sun, fresh air, water and nutrient rich soil are all essential for healthy, happy plants. At some point during the grow (usually 4-6 weeks in) the plant has used up all of the nutrients originally present in the soil thus requiring the grower to have to supplement with some type of fertilizer. I see many growers photographing and showing off their huge displays of colourful bottles and I gasp when I read their long lists of 10-15 different fertilizers and supplements being added to every single batch of water. Not only is this unbelievably expensive and overwhelming but time consuming and completely unnecessary for a successful grow. For those seeking an Organic path there are options such as homemade compost tea or powdered formulas consisting of bat guano, glacial rock dust, bone meal, alfalfa meal, etc. I often use a Canadian made brand called “Gaia Green Organics", mixed in at the start to create my own super soil thus carrying the plants through their first 4-6 weeks of life needing nothing more than PH’d water. The organic fertilizers are usually more expensive and often have a slower uptake by the plants themselves as they tend to feed the soil first which in turn feeds the plants. For novice/newbie growers and those with fast flowering strains such as Autos- a non organic, liquid, water soluble fertilizer is often the way to go. They are generally cheap, easy to use and quickly taken up by the plants when they need it most. My ride or die brand is "Flora Nova” by General Hydroponics and it comes in a 1 part nutrient grow and bloom formula catering to my plants’ needs from start to finish. This company has many options available including all kinds of additional supplements to be used in conjunction with their standard grow/bloom formulas but I’ve never found these products all that necessary or beneficial. Using them in the past has led to over fertilization resulting in burnt foliage, stunted bud development and harsh flavours when smoking/vaping the final product. Not only does $Less is More$ apply to how many fertilizers you are giving your plants but it also applies to how much. Most photosensitive strains can easily tolerate a full dose (as per the manufacturer’s recommendations) and thrive with being fed every time you water. But Autoflowers and some smaller photosensitive strains seem to respond differently to a slight tweak- keeping in mind that if you start small, you can always add more but if you start big, you can’t take back what’s already been given. I will generally only fertilize at half of what the manufacturer recommends for a photosensitive strain- every other or every second watering. Starting out at a quarter dose for the initial feeding which can sometimes be as low as 1.25 mls per gallon and working my way up from there. It doesn’t seem like much but within hours I can see my plants responding positively with increased/sustained turgor, greening up a little and increased resin production which equals "smell/scent". For me, I can smell when I’ve just fertilized my plants- it’s a stronger smell than the normal scent that they give off with a plain watering. If you’re lucky, you’ll end up growing a greedy Autoflowering strain that seems to want more than what you’re giving it. Rather than increasing to a higher dose in a single feeding, try feeding more often at the same dose- so if you’re feeding every other or every second watering, try feeding every watering at the same dose (trying not to increase above half of the manufacturer’s recommendation for the photo strains). Occasionally I will increase beyond the halfway dose to accommodate for the plants’ needs in late flower as most fertilizer companies list an increase to adequately feed during late flower anyhow. I guess the main message for this week is to keep it simple as nature intended. Learn to read your plants and supplement the small amount of nutrients that your plants don’t already have in the high quality soil you initially provided. Cannabis cultivation can be overwhelming at first but the $Less is More$ approach will save you time, money and the realization that you’ve accidentally fried your plants!

The girls look good :) I have never raised without LST, this time it will be just like that :)

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 60 days and flowering stage was 70 days total (harvested tops at day 63th) the total weight of dry buds was : top buds 174 G + lower buds 55 G = 229 G my overview of strain with details: the seeds: unfortunately i only got 1 seed cracked out of 5 so i will not know how much this genetic can get different but at least i got the chance to grow once of this wonderful strain the plant : in every stage you can ensure that you are dealing with a high level plant , she will get big so you have to control her height LST and SCROG highly recommended , will grow very well with tick stalks and big fan leaves , has good resistance for stress and will respond very well to stress trainings , she really has gorilla power in herself , fresh buds on plant : buds are very compact and dense even from start , fresh blossoms smells like pineapple and mango , 2 different shades of sweet smells like you hold 2 junks of pineapple and mango in your hand and you smell them together, she is a trichome and resin factory , very very sticky , very oily , strong smell dried buds: very compact and dense , hard as rocks , has dark colors with purple hues inside it , it smells sweet smoke : very smooth and sweet like lollipop , pineapple , mango like , after 2 minutes it'll kick in and you'll get higher and higher with every breath , has a strange and especial high mind high mostly

03/01/2022 You can tell which I put in flower room first, buds developing nicely 🙏🏻 Second one is a week behind but starting to flower have to raise the lights this week.

Inizio Terza settimana di fioritura 💪🕉️💚.. tutto procede come deve .sono sicurissimo che questa layer cake, sarà fantastica....perfetta per la mia patologia...la meglio medicina per me

Germinating 14 seeds and I think I killed some because of very high humidity over 4 days in the dome. One little guy/girl has double cotyledons on both sites and one has it on one side. Start 07.03.2023

This grow is on it’s last lap 🏁 These are by far the most beautiful buds i have grown and would definitely recommend fast buds genetics to anyone. Can’t wait to try these now. Last week i said i was starting the flush but decided to push it back to this week so they only have 1-2 weeks left Will be checking the trichomes daily Let me know what you guys think so far👌🏾🤞🏾

Was a great week overall in the tent. The girls are looking great at this point. They get water every day or two. I'm supposed water daily but you know how busy life is. So hoping to install the self watering pots after lollipopping and defoliating later this week. My issue is with my light schedule due to my timer. The timer seems to be off and I'm worried that's gonna mess up the girls. I say this cause the light schedule doesn't match day after day. Its my timer and gonna have to replace that one with a digital one.

Lookin good!

Half time in bloom. I made a video with and one without flash. This is always a bit misleading. I set Josefine a bit higher. I should have done this much earlier as she was already the smallest the whole time. I defoliated a tiny bit. Should be. A few leaves are turning yellow, but I think I watered a little too much, or gave too much fertilizer. However, it doesn't look alarming to me at the moment. They'll catch themselves again. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to the first week of April.

✅💚

Doing her thing this week. Trichomes forming nicely.

it was outdoor growing in soil. used flora trio, koolblum, rippen and floraKleen. I had to harvest 1 weeks early, but it was awesome tree :D I've got about 100g dry. about 300-320 wet.

Esta semana añadimos el otro led ts 1000 para seguir regulando (añadiendo más potencia lumínica) Agregamos paja,para una mejor retención de la humedad y no se seque primero la parte superficial de la tierra (uno de nuestros mayores errores al querer calcular si todo el cepellon está seco o sigue teniendo algo de humedad,por consecuencia,al volver a regar ,sigue con ese pequeño exceso de humedad) ,con el objetivo de conseguir una mejor vida en nuestro suelo ,con todos los nutrientes orgánicos y la clave,enzynabis,crearemos una buena simbiosis,y lo más importante,natural.

thanks for the comments guys ! im switching to 20 hour of light tomorrow

Our Zamnesia photoperiod plants have also started their journey into the magical flowering period, this is the first week. ---- The general environmental conditions are good, the heat has increased a bit again but for the first weeks of flowering it is not a big problem, let's remember to never exceed 27 degrees centigrade in the last 4 weeks to avoid jeopardizing the quality of the flowers. If necessary, open the growbox but never let it exceed 27-30 degrees where 30 is already a lot. The good thing is that as soon as the lights are turned off the change is already visible a bit and as autumn progresses we will also improve. The humidity is fluctuating but we try to control it with two dehumidifiers when necessary, pushing both possibly not into the growbox but directly into the room. (I dehumidify the room and the air in the growbox should also be dehumidified) - Our two Karen Kush plants had a bit of a hard time during the vegetative stage and I applied my emergency rule when a plant isn't doing very well. The plant that was having the most trouble was topped and is now about to send out 8 central tops and two lateral tops that were LSTed and have been branched out, really beautiful, great work, I told the guys at Zamensia that I was trying to come up with something and fingers crossed it seems I succeeded. A result that is obviously pleasing to the eye as well. Beautiful. This one is still in the vegetative stage in a separate small growbox. The second plant was also having a hard time, it seemed to be going into deficiency, it showed signs of over when I tried to recover so I gave it a good clean to give the plant less stuff to manage and now it seems we're going straight up well. She's flowering with the others. --- Technique chosen as I mentioned one of the two plants was left to vegetate, topping on the main central line up to 8 buds now growing. However, unlike the main lining, I left two side branches which also have some nice branching and I applied a symmetrical and pleasant LST. --- Feeding Program - The fertilizers are always Plagron and I am following the table that I generated on the site depending on the substrate chosen. Create your card and follow it, never be presumptuous my friend as I have been in the past, follow the card and look at the plants, not all need the same amount of fertilizer. We have arrived at the moment to give a good dose of ferrò in the first weeks of flowering, already of race life not sprayed but mixed with fertilizers. ---- https://plagron.com/en - Power Roots - 1ml/l - Alga Grow - 4 ml/l (Plant 1 in veg) - Alga Bloom - 4 ml/l (Plant in bloom) - Pure Zym - 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal - 1ml/l - Vita Race - 5 ml/l --- The 100% Organic pack by Plagron can be found on Zamnesia at the link: https://www.zamnesia.io /it/11457-pla gron-easy-pack-natural.html --- Dehumidifier is now running between 50% - 55 % / / Site Strain Description // Formidable genetics: These seeds contain the genes of Monster Bud Kush and White Widow. High THC content: With 24%, the effects are pronounced and intense. Fast flowering: This indica-dominant hybrid needs just 8–9 weeks to reach harvest.

Ladies are getting fat! As of day 69 (Feb 12) we have started CropSalt CAKE feeding. Time to get even frostier and fatter. They are still drinking over a gallon a day each easily. If you have any questions for me, please feel free to ask! I want to help others grow Autoflowers like this.
