Bit of a difficult start to these girls seeing as this is my first grow and all, but they’re still growing and overall looking pretty healthy, good colour, springy, but I’m suspecting nute deficiency maybe but I’ve upped the food so we’ll see how we do! Now, when to start topping 🤔... Puff, puff, pass ✌️

Still forming her delicious buds had a lot of heat problems can’t seem to keep them down below 34 reaching 36c highest! 😮 I’m trying different things everyday but I think if I don’t fit ridge vents or tile vents I’ll be having more dramas with this heat! Unless typical UK gives us rain then I’ll be happy lol I’ve added some examples of my heats in the tents the blue one (blue illuminate) is the bananan glue the first yellow one is the fast flowers second is the autos! I have 2 coolers an extraction fan and another fan to blow the heat towards the extractor but still can’t bring it down! I think I’ll go back to my old way until the summer passes on the next ones which are in germ btw! Looking to rotate a harvest every 4 weeks from when I harvest the autos! Wish me luck please buddies the struggle is real!

Did she start flowering ? Usually I see the same with pheno ants when I switch off the light for 36 hours to start flowering and after the top is light green. This is how flowering starts. I am not sure about her ? Weather is shit anyways....

Coming soon

Absolutely blasting off, topped for last time this previous Friday, everything is bouncing back perfect growth has exploded. Still having a slight yellowing on the edges that can't seem to address, I fed every nutrients needed + calmag, pH is 6.7 on runoff, I feed Everytime with 6.4-6.5 pH, it has only received light feedings of Lotus nutrients and I have amended the soil with GaiaGreen 4-4-4 again, so I am hoping that fixes whatever issue is going on. But the smell is REMARKABLE, not even flowering yet but the stems REEK. A strong funky skunk smell from the stem rub. Going to tie down some more branches this week, and keep an eye on the leaves might introduce a superthrive foliar to get these things doing okay, I don't believe it's nutrient deficiency, but it could be nutrient lockout, not due to pH but maybe salt buildup? I tried flushing the soil one time but maybe it wasn't enough? Will keep everyone updated! Also yes I am aware 9 weeks is incredibly long for the progress it's showing but I left it in starter pot for 3-4 weeks, so it is about 6 weeks old progress wise, I intentionally slowed it down until I had room in the tent!

Week 7 from seed

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 57: 2,0 Liter Wasser. Tag 60: Die Gorilla Cookies Auto von 2Fast4Buds bekommt 1,5 Liter Wasser. Tag 62: 2,0 Liter Wasser. Schön, das du dir meinen Bericht ansiehst. Schau gerne wieder rein. Schöne Ostern 👋😎

Added a photo of the whole tent including both plants from both diaries, next diary will most likely be a 1 tent 1 plant. Buds are swelling slightly and getting even harder, like golf balls. Leafs are bleaching more, next week I'll do a complete refill of the tank and will be going a little easier on the KMPS because it adds to much K. Had some trouble with a minor leak through the top of the tube because it was filled to the rim due to a lot of roots and really long netcups which block the tube, next tome netcups which are not as long and rather wider instead because the current ones are choking the stem which IMO is a good and bad thing, it stresses the plant so it produes more but also chokes it a little and the stem rips at the base but it heals. Values are average of the day.

Day 105. I do not have enough experience to tell if that is a long time to finish for an autoflower. 2 Days ago I added 8 liters of water pH'd at 5.9. I'm also curious of anyone knows if this strain produces amber colored thrichomes. I've read some stuff on the internet that certain strains produce almost none at all. I can't tell of people are telling the truth or I just should have more patience and wait for them to show up. The close-up pictures you see are from day 105. Almost all her sugar leafs are yellowish or completely yellow btw. I forgot to make recent pics of the cola's. I'll add some of day 103. On a sidenote, by the looks of it, the buds are still gaining some nice mass and density. Cheers, DangerMouse --------------- Day 107 ------------------- After 10 days of FloraRipen another batch of FloraKleen. I added pics of the trichomes and some buds. The runoff had an us/cm of 4500... Like I said before, my meter must be broken, right? After 48 hours of flushing I'll just change the water for pH'd at 5.9. Does anyone know what kind of bugs are in the runoff? The video is of the water that came out of the bucket. I've seen them before for did not capture them. The look a bit like springtails but does anyone know? There are none on the plant itself, just in the water. Let me know! Happy growing, DangerMouse

Se me ocurrió hacer un scrog desde ceros, aunque es solamente un piloto ya que falta una defoliación y un arreglo en la estructura, pero eso nos da a entender que este ciclo de vegetativo le falta aun varias semana, realmente lo hago para divertirme 💚🤩

Плесень срезал

Second week of flowering completed, they are all very beautiful and healthy. I apologize for the poor quality of the photos, I've been very busy lately so I haven't been able to give them much attention. Luckily I automated the watering process, otherwise it would be very difficult days. But completing the initial 21 days, I will do a good defoliation and take photos of them separately. Peace be with you all!✌️🙏

Did a little cleaning up the bottom this week and I am loving this plant! She’s my favorite of the two fast flowering photos I am running— just a healthy stunning plant! Started with bloom nutes this week and she is truly a fast flowering photo! I usually see these results on week three/four and it’s week 2! ✌️🏻💚

Day 65 Flower 🌿🔥 We’re definitely in the final stretch now. The last watering was plain water only with adjusted pH, and the plants responded really well. Buds are dense, nicely frosted, and the aroma keeps getting stronger every day. Under the microscope there are plenty of cloudy trichomes now, with amber heads steadily increasing — especially on the fastest finishing plant. The slower ones are still doing their thing, so for now I’m just keeping an eye on their progress and letting them finish at their own pace. At this stage it’s all about patience, keeping the environment stable, and dialing in the right harvest timing. The finish line is getting very close now ✂️ Let it grow 🌱 _ 65. den květu 🌿🔥 Už jsme opravdu ve finální rovince. Poslední zálivka proběhla jen čistou vodou s upraveným pH a rostliny na ni reagují velmi dobře. Palice jsou tvrdé, krásně pocukrované a vůně sílí každým dnem. Pod mikroskopem už je hodně mléčných trichomů a jantarových postupně přibývá, hlavně na nejrychlejší rostlině. Ty pomalejší si ještě jedou svoje tempo, takže zatím sleduji vývoj a nechávám je v klidu dojet. Teď už je to hlavně o trpělivosti, stabilním prostředí a správném načasování sklizně. Finiš už je opravdu blízko. Ať to roste 🌱

Shes actually already pre flowering the bud sites are already purple so I'm super excited to see how dark this one gets. I've seen this variety almost turn black it's so dark purple. I went heavy with LST and lightly defoliated. I hope you enjoy the diaries as much as I do! Check back next week to see just how fast she buds & remember its 4:20 somewhere!!!!!!

The forecast delivered, eventually 😁 After two weeks of cold, grey, the sun finally showed up properly toward the end of the week. Temperatures pushing 19°C, real light, the kind that actually does something. About time!! The plants are small for their age, a week ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​more or less lost to cold and low light. That’s outdoor growing though, you take what the weather gives you… 7 to 8 cm above the substrate at J21, stems still pretty thin, third node just starting to push through. I may also have started nutrients a bit late. They never looked deficient, leaves were just sitting at a light green, which at that age could simply be normal. But with a substrate this low in nutrients, almost inert really, I probably could have introduced Bio Vega a bit earlier than I did. First feeds with Bio Vega this week at 1.2 ml/L, with Rhizotonic at 2 ml/L. Mid week I also threw some azos at 1 tbsp/10l, figured it couldn’t hurt to give them a little extra love. It’s a root stimulator, helps with nutrient uptake too, so why not. On the last day I bumped Bio Vega up to 2.25 ml/L, following the fastbuds feeding schedule. Being organic, the burn risk stays low even at that dose, so worth pushing it. The Skunk is sitting above a layer of BatMix though, so I’ll keep a closer eye on her as the roots start reaching down. By J21 the leaves seemed a shade deeper than the pale green of the previous week. Could be the feeding starting to land, could just be the plant finding its feet. Probably both. We’ll stay on this dose and see. The deadline is July 16th. That’s not a lot of runway. But the 10 day forecast is showing a lot of sunshine and highs around 30°C. If there was ever a moment for these three babies to wake up and start moving, this is it ! ​​
