Did ok with this one, she had deficiency into week 7. Not as large as previous runs SLH but she turned out. Will return in a month or so with dry weight. May try out disco ball motor and round clip rack to dry. Like bud chandelier but cheap from Amazon but I wait for a week. Planted 4/9 chopped 7/2 with quite a few amber trichs.

Very optimal setup for everything so far. you can really tell the first sprout apart right now because of the second set coming in. Can’t wait to start using nutrients soon!

Still slow going but the weather has improved so that’s great. No sign of any bud rot thankfully 😅. A lot of other outdoor growers are having problems and I have had some on other plants.

I grew two plants and they couldn't have been and more different from each other. One plant grew quite well in my organic amended soil, the other suffered from pH issues and did not like any kind of stress. The plants leaves grew quite different some were webbed especially the ones on the larger flowers. The structure of the flowers on this plant are very chunky fox tail with absolutely gigantic caylex', almost had me thinking seeds. This plant also took almost 3 more weeks in flower than her sister. This plant also had a nice fade with some pink,red,violet,gold colors coming through. Both plant have similar smell with one being a little more pungent and gassy. Now for the normal plant, she grew like a rock star. Hey flowers are covered in sugar and are top shelf dense. She was too down about two weeks ago and is in jars and curing, let me say this though"when Barney's Farm says to use caution they mean it". This plant produced some very strong medicine so much so that I may have found a strain I would grow continually for a year or so. It's that good IMO. The plant did not give me a single bit of fuss 🤗, unlike her sister. Now I have the remaining plant hung up to dry and trim. Can't wait Cheers!!!

Remember, when I said I was having a little fun, I was not kidding don’t do you see that nice looking Pringles can it took a lot of work, but I’m not gonna leave her in there with her entire life. She’s most likely going to get transplanted when it’s time to put her to flower other than that you see the others. They look good as well. Even the one my friend gave me I brought it back to life and man I thought I was doing something wrong because she has a major purple stem and her genetics I guess.

April 5th - First day of the 2nd week above ground. Plants were watered early yesterday, and some dilute nutes were included. Rapid start & MediOne. - “no Foliar Mist this morning due to the breakfast meal” - 2nd and 3rd Nodes are being built as we speak Apr 6 - a.m. foliar mist for the tent - waiting a day to feed as the soil feels damp. Let it dry further Apr 7th - attempting to Re-Pot the Congo #3 x Bangi Haze this morning as the soil seems to be a solid plug. Air Holes around the perimeter over-nite, was a great suggestion, Thanx Growmie; but new Soil is where this is going. (ps there is another congo 3 seed in water just in case): done, video uploaded of the transfer - a little leaf discolouration led to a bit of Cal/Mag being added to a small drink for the plants. 60-80ml per plant. Overall plant moisture is dropping. April 10 - each plant looks much stronger and the crowns are solid green. Over-watering incident is drying out nicely. 100mls per plant was added this morning. CalMag & RapidStart are the only ingredients. - fresh Congo #3 x Bangi Haze seed germinated and placed in Soil this morning ( insurance for the one that is struggling ) - Tues pm or Wed am, I am going to run a volume of 5.9/6.0 pH water through the pots, to get rid of this 7+ pH. - foliar mist applied at lites-out. that is also on hold now till soil-flush. That's the plan anyway cheers

Well ambers have been popping up and I've started the flush about 5 days ago, planning to chop day 72/73. I need to make room for my other 2 girls who need higher humidity etc so I might be chopping a week earlier than I would like but I'm happy how far she has come. One thing I noticed with my USB microscope - use your PC instead of your phone, I could see considerably more amber on my PC monitor then I did on my iPhone but I need a longer Micro-USB cord so these trich pics are from my iPhone.

~ 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: 4/11- Here we go into the second week of life for my FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower and she's doing really well! All I'm doing right now is making sure that her medium remains moist, watering only when necessary. I'm checking her root development daily and she will be ready to transplant outdoors any day now! 4/13- Today is TRANSPLANT DAY! I moved the GG4 Sherbet outside to her prearranged 'new home' which I had previously prepped by adding some Coco/Perlite into the soil to improve the texture and drainage. I then pre-amended the soil with Gaia Green 4-4-4 All Purpose slow release dry amendment along with 3g of Wiggle Worm castings, 2 cups of ground Alfalfa and 1/4 cup of Extreme Gardening's MYCOS. After which, I kept the soil moist to allow the microbial colony to populate for a week. To transplant, I first made a hole then placed a Solo cup in it to make sure that the depth was adequate, then packed the medium up against the cup firmly which leaves a nice Solo cup shaped hole in the ground. I then wet the inside of the hole that I formed and coated the hole with Extreme Gardening's MYCOS root enhancer, after which I removed the GG4 Sherbet from her Solo cup and placed her snugly into her new home! After planting her in the ground all that was left to do was lightly water her in... Let the fun begin!🤪 4/15- The GG4 Sherbet FF from FastBuds is doing extremely well in her new environment. To be quite honest I was slightly hesitant to place her outside this early as we are only getting approximately 13 or so hours of sunlight daily. Based on my experience last year growing a Gorilla Cookies FF, which was placed outside at a similar time and did extremely well, I went ahead with the transplant, confident that she would be just fine. 4/17- I'm watering around every 2-3 days right now using water straight from my well through a garden hose... super simple! I do not worry about PH as long as the water isn't chlorinated and is good enough for me to drink, it's good enough for my plants and the microbial colony in the soil will adjust the PH to where they need it and at the same time provide the nutrients that the plant requires... again, nice and simple. Well there goes two weeks for this little lady. The next coming weeks should see an increase in size and vigor as long as the weather cooperates... fingers crossed!🤞 Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Good week of drying the conditions were perfect, because of the cold weather I could keep it at 16 degrees and 60% humidity but unfortunately I didn't have enough air flow on my back plant that was a chunky monkey and the biggest buds got moldy 😪 the rest seems ok it's been just the big heads got hit, lesson learnt

THURSDAY 11/29: Impressive plants..both of them. Cruella is waaay more sensitive to heat and needs soil with VERY good drainage. She wilts for a few hours every time I water her, no matter how little I give her. I continue to poke and prod it with my moisture probes regularly to keep it from compacting too much for her. Carlotta hasn't given me any problems at all. She's just a little slower, but almost Cruella's equal in size now. I foliar fed a few times and did a photo session. FRIDAY: Foliar fed a few times and tweaked a few things.. They are both spending most of their energy making flowers now...only grew a half inch last night. SATURDAY: Both Cruella and Carlotta continue to stretch. I fed therm with about 1/3 gallon of full-strength bloom nutes today and foliar fed them a few times and re-positioned them. SUNDAY: Cruella's buds are swelling up a bit now. I plucked off most of her burnt-up leaves and she's looking quite sexy now.😋 Carlotta's main stalk and branches have really thickened up. She's gonna be able to support some super-sized colas like her older sister now.👍 I tweaked my ventilation on Saturday and the temps were staying at or below 84, so... I quickly added my other 60w 3500k COB light to the tent..it's and positioned it on the Cookie-twin's backside.. 😎 MONDAY: I foliar fed them today and will again for a few more days, but will probably start rinsing them off with ph'd spring water after that. Their buds are starting to thicken now. TUESDAY: Cruella and Carlotta both appear to have root problems. They look overwatered even when i just feed them a little and even when they are almost dry. I probed their soil very well and they were actually almost dry. I just fed them a tiny dose (12 oz each) of ph'd water with boomerang, kangaroots, calimagic, and some bat guano powder. If I don't see improvement in the next couple of days, I'll assume they are rootbound and transplant them into 5 gallon fabric pots.

She is really starting to smell now. Hairs are turning orange and shes looking great. I just got a USB Microscope and checked the trichomes and they are looking mostly clear with some cloudy,

Ho toppato 2 volte , una volta al 4 nodo,poi ho tolto via anche le prime foglie ad una punta e ho lasciato crescere solo il secondo e il terzo nodo, non appena sono cresciuti ho toppato ancora tutti e 4 i rami in modo da avere 8 cime apicali ...a reagito stupendamente bene per avere 3 settimane beve già parecchio...ora cerco di tenerla giù facendo LST ogni giorno se c'è bisogno, così successivamente ci sarà spazio per fare penetrare abbastanza luce per tutte e 8 le cime!....io sono positivo, lei e promettente vediamo la prossima settimana cosa ci aspetta!!!! Nel frattempo vi ringrazio per essere passati da qui a vedere i miei lavori! Grazie mille a tutti voi!!! 🌈🌈🌈 Alla prossima settimana 💪🏼

Edit: I decided to harvest her tomorrow, i dont want any bud rot. Shes doing well, the buds are not fattening as much as i hoped for so i think she needs 2 more weeks here is the crux, next week itll rain nonstop, no sun and high humidity in this stage its safe to assume shell get bud rot. So i took a look through the microscope today cause im thinking about an early harvest. Its better than expected, 75% white 20% clear and 5% amber, almost all pistils are brown. If you have suggestions, leaving her to grow in real bad weather or an emergency harvest, what do you think would be better?

🌻 It already starts to smell very well. ✌️🎃Thank you for checking my cultivation.

So we're a couple weeks into flower now. I finally got my hands on a ph meter. Our water has a ph of 7.8 but with nutrients comes down to high 6s. Runoff ph was 6.3ish. I'll keep an eye on it the next few feeds and see what happens. Had a couple weekends where I've been away and girl has dried out a bit between waterings but she's held up under the stress ok. LST has been reasonably successful for both my girls. Will see how yield compares to prev grow. Have just got my hands on some bud burst which I've started adding today.

Up to now they looking pretty good and strong, even tho some of the plants are not as dense and is maybe a bit late to date with the other ones. Ill have to give them another 1 or 2 other weeks until harvest. The trichromes look preety good even tho.in the picture dosent show well. They starting to consume less water and the leaf colour is starting to fade slightly .

4th week of flowering done and all are doing well, they're starting to fatten up and getting a lil sticky and smell coming along nicely now. Will continue feeding every 2 to 3 days with nutes ec to 1.8 , ph 6.8.

It’s bern roughly two months these guys have been growing! Lst’d Both but untied the gg because I wasn’t sure she was benefiting from it so I’m going to do it over. These ladies (I hope) will start their flower journey next week when I revive my new flower tent 😎..stay tuned for some epic buds..I hope!!
