Flowering Week 25: Structural Support & Purple Progress
Update: 29.08.2025 | Day 17
Hey Growmies,
Week 25 brought some clarity – and a little intervention. Remember those yellow leaves up top I mentioned last week? Lower leaves were totally fine, so I knew it wasn’t nitrogen. I posted pics and you guys came through – most of you called it: lack of potassium and phosphorus.
So, I did something I rarely do: gave the ladies a mild dose of mineral fertilizer. Mixed a 2L bottle with normal dosage into a 10L watering can filled with rainwater, then split it evenly between both plants. It felt like a small gamble, but sometimes you gotta trust the process – and the community. I didn't want to spend money on organic fertilizers as long as the Tripart bottles are still full from last year.
Biggest lesson this year? My compost needs more power. Next season, I’m amping it up with extra horse or pigeon manure to keep those nutrients steady deeper into flower.
Strain Check
Durban Poison:
This girl’s gettin’ heavy. I’m constantly tying branches to my support structure to keep ‘em from snapping. She’s bulking up nicely, and the colors keep deepening into that gorgeous purple she’s becoming known for. The smell? Still pretty moderate – not overpowering yet, which is kinda surprising. Still not seeing much resin on the sugar leaves, but she’s a beauty through and through.
Blueberry:
She’s still reaching for the sky – definitely wants to be the tallest girl in the garden. Bud sites are becoming more defined now, and she’s slowly starting to form proper buds. Her colors are even more striking than Durban’s, deep and vibrant. Still no real smell to speak of, though. I’m thinking she’ll need until at least the first week of October to fully finish up.
Next Steps
- Keep a close eye on how they respond to the mild dose of mineral fertilizer
- Stay vigilant for pests – especially as buds develop further
- Check daily for branches that need extra support and tie them up as needed
That’s it for this week, folks.
Catch y’all next time.

Reaching for the sky. This is the strain I created & this is my first time growing it. It's a regular photoperiod strain I hope it's a girl so I can hopefully taste what my hard work created!

Destiny has given me a wonderful climate so far but from the 18th the weather will change completely, precisely in the last 10 days of flowering which fortunately is very accelerated by the anomalous heat, especially at night.
Typical late summer weather here, kinda for weed.
First storm is expected on Saturday, I'm ready to protect them. I've made the last rearrangement of the tent, trying to give more room to the vigorous and overflowing Pineapple Kush so I've rised the roof to 110". The plants are all carefully sprayed with thyme extract to control mites infection, it seems to work, infection is stable from 1 week. I kill manually 20/30 bedbugs a day. During nighttime, maybe a monster grasshopper, is munching some leaves, at this point I don't care, I have to defoliate anyway and these bastards don't chew buds, for now.
Perfect filling, very frosty, enormous main bus is forming and a dozen of big & fat lateral colas are ripening. Pine resin/wet earth scent. Expected harvest time September 4th week but she's ripening fastly so maybe she can gnaw her sister Gorilla a few days.
Last week with nutes

My Strawberry Gorilla Automatic from Fast Buds is now in its third week of flowering, and I couldn’t be happier with how she’s progressing.
She looks incredibly healthy, with vibrant green leaves and strong branches. The stretch phase is nearly over, and she has developed a solid structure with a well-defined main cola.🌱
One of the most exciting changes this week is the first appearance of trichomes on the main bud. Under the light, they’re starting to sparkle, hinting at the resin production that’s about to take off.
The buds are forming nicely, and I can already smell a faint but promising aroma developing.
So far, she’s responding well to the nutrients and environment, with no signs of deficiencies or stress. If she keeps going at this pace, she’s going to be a real beast by harvest time.😊

I hope she’s done stretching because she’s back to being 8” from the light and I need to readjust the way I hung it if I will need to raise to it any further.. she’s drinking about 2 litres a day in total, thirsty bitch, will be increasing frequency to 3 feeds this week. Leaves look lovely, buds getting hairy, trichomes appearing. Now it’s just waiting for her to bulk up over the next month or so. I’m very proud of her structure. Not noticing a smell yet, growers nose, I know she smells.
Pothead has taken to pruning very well. Working on her open cup structure, defoliating and getting fed with GP3 veg nutes. She’s a beautiful little mother and she’s enjoying hanging out with the family in the living room under a little qb. She’s exactly as I hoped she’d be. Very grateful this grow is working out for me. We did our crash course in experimenting and dialling in our grow last season and this grow is proving that we learned a lot and it was worthwhile.

BREEDER INFO
Tangerine Snow F1 Fast Feminised is a 75% sativa, four-way cross of (Boost x Tangelo) with (Lavender x Power Plant).
This Fast F1 hybrid is bred from Cali genetics and boasts great citrus terps, high resin production for extracts,
high levels of THC, very good yields and excellent mould resistance.
Tangerine Snow F1 Fast can be grown indoors as well as outdoors. Indoor flowering times are between 8 - 10 weeks
while harvest time in northern latitudes is during September while in the southern hemisphere growers will be harvesting during March.
Recommended climate regions are hot, dry, humid and warm. These are tall, semi-branched plants that grow in excess of 200cm
and display a high degree of vigour with very good uniformity.
In common with many other heavily sativa-dominant strains, Tangerine Snow F1 Fast offers excellent resistance to mould
as well as to plant pests and diseases. The combination of citrus terps and plenty of resin makes thi
a very good extract strain with the 'washing' method delivering very good yields of hash.
The citrus terpene profile is reminiscent of mandarins and tangerines and also has sweet candy notes.
THC production has been lab-verified at a strong 24% while CBD is low. The effect is uplifting and energising,
perfect for use during the day and early evening.

Flowering week 2 for the bigger plant, all are cuttings of Red Sky I'm growing outside but this one is stinking some crazy smells not sure how to describe burnt rubber? And pine tar?
Best I can say.
Application of L A B this week to feed the microbial communities. Application to leaf surfaces to combat pw (prevent) bud rot.

FBT2308 is growing great under the Medic grow Mini Sun-2 in the Agrogardens nutrition. She has huge leaves, and is starting to stack her colas now. It is looking like she wants to produce a lot of flower from the pistils forming. I add more nutrition when I added water. Possibly help curb the minor issues on bottom leaves up from spreading. She had some selective defoliation around center to let more light, and air in. She us looking great. Thank you Medic Grow. Agrogardens, and Fast Buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻💪🏻❄️🌱

Starting my flush this week using 10ml of Clearex per Gallon of water flushed down to 450EC or 225ppm, going to now continue watering with ph'd balanced water when dry with about 10-20% runoff. Going to keep an eye on the trichomes but I'm thinking I'm gonna harvest early to mid of next week. I'm going to try and bring out even more of the colors in the flowers this last week or two and I'm going to start watering with ice cold water not sure if it'll help or not but I'm gonna give it a shot. End of Week 13/Week 8 of Flower it went well the plants are flushed and are fading, going to chop in a few days.

love this strain it grows easy just quite tall and dosnt like too much training I expected a lot more than 4oz and 6g of her as she was in a 30l pot had a longer veg, time more space and more light I'm just putting it down to growing in soil lol my first time and as u guys know I'm a coco grower but as said on previous diaries I have dried with a higher temp than usual so maybe lost some weight through that otherwise I'm always happy with some gorilla I love it . thanks again to all the guys n girls that follow chat comment like and help thanks for reading happy growing guys
