Flipping to flower

This was a week. The drama at the beginning was one of the fans falling down onto my gorilla cookies. It snapped a branch off really bad but the girl hung onto it by threads. I duct taped her up and somehow took. 😎😢 I defoliated and did a little lst on a couple of the girls. Nothing major. Also increased the light to 80% now. I think I'll stay there until late flower when I switch to 12/12. I also added blocks to a couple of the girls to make the canopy level. That put the light at 15" as recommended by Medic Grow. This Gorilla Cookie is a beast. Even took a beating from a falling fan but kept going. She'll do the best out of the group I bet. Dimmed to 80% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by! You can find the light on Grow Diaries: https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow/mini-sun-2-150-watts You can find the light on Medic Grow's website: https://medicgrow.com/

Gold Sativa is doing well. Going into bulking. I just did a solution change, and upped her nutrition. She is in a New Level Hydro bucket, under a Spider Farmer SE5000 light.

Fast schon ende der 4. Woche aber jetzt erstmal Woche 3 eintragen. EC ca. auf 1.1 Am Anfang der Woche 3 in 19 l fabric pot umgetopft. Ab Dienstag 4 Tage unterwegs daher die Schläuche für Blumat...hat ganz gut funktioniert mit Umwälzpumpe im Tank plus dass "Jemand" täglich PH korrigiert hat. Video ist ca. 19.10. bis 26.10. plus bissl vom 27.10 Schon mal vorab... Samstag bis Mittwoch (Woche 4) auch unterwegs...nur das es "Jemand" nicht gab und Blumat auch noch verstopfte...Pflanze hat gelitten aber Spoiler muss sein...die Frau mit dem fetten A.... wurde geretet. Aptus schein für Blumat ungeeignet zu sein...mit TA gabs weniger Probleme bei einem älteren grow...Aptus bleibt aber zunächst mein Favorit.

Thanks for checking out my grow. 😉👍🏼 Feel free to check out my others, and follow along for more to come. 🌿🌺

great strain ,shee is happy all time..love this pheno and great genetiks of cours of barney farms , after couple days this gorilla gous oudoors ))🍀🍀✌️🧐🌄❤️💯🙌🏼

13.12. Hi, tag 79 Blüte 53. In 3 Tagen ist Kotelett (D). Muhahaha sie hat überlebt. Wie schön. 14.12. Schlechte Nachrichten, die darf noch länger. 😀 15.12. Muhahaha, ich bleibe dabei, ich bin ein Großmeister ehrenhalber. Sie wächst noch. Es gibt hier und da frische Phylaxien. Zu Heiligabend werde ich ne schöne Knospe abschneiden, und sie auf heiße Kohle legen. Zum verräuchern.

Intermediate Results Overview This grow was intense! Setting up the grow consumed so much of my time and focus that I started slacking at work, and it took me a month to get back on track. But hey, what’s the point of a job if it gets in the way of growing? 😉 In the end, everything worked out, and I gained invaluable experience. This was my first grow using coco coir. At first, I didn’t get it, but then it just clicked! Now I’m hooked: "I’m here to stay." Coco is more controlled than soil, flushes easily, and you can introduce beneficial microbes, which thrive in it. My main takeaway from this grow? If you buy coco, don’t forget CalMag! Next time, I’ll definitely install HEPA filters at the intake. The amount of dust was insane, and the grow box pulls air like a vacuum cleaner. Watching the timelapse, you can see the box sucking in every bit of dust. I vacuumed the intake filters weekly. The plant was incredibly sticky, but that also meant it caught a lot of lint and fibers between trichomes, especially visible under a microscope. Smoking microplastics? No, thank you! --- On CO2 CO2 only works if everything else is dialed in. If the plant experiences stress from deficiencies or overfeeding, you can forget about it. Since CO2 supplementation requires turning off the exhaust fan, it’s hard to manage temperature and humidity. The plant releases so much moisture that RH jumps to 80% within minutes. It’s doable, but definitely a challenge. --- On Magnetic Fields No clue what’s happening here yet, but it’s fascinating! I’ll test again with a control sample. --- Nutrients Dreams do come true—I’ve tested almost everything Advanced Nutrients offers. It wasn’t all smooth sailing; their feeding charts need adjustments for your conditions, and you usually need to feed less than recommended. Overall, I’d say the nutrients performed 100%, and I see no reason to switch. I’ll stick with them for future grows. --- Strain This strain is reliable, though not the most productive. It flowered exactly as advertised and delivered a frosty finish. It tolerated all my mistakes like a champ—especially mold. Despite an abandoned SCROG plan turning the plant into a bouquet, there wasn’t a single mold spot, even in the densely packed lower buds that got almost no light. Zero mold issues! --- Aroma As advertised: pine, wood, and citrus. At first, I thought it smelled like grapefruit, but now I’m leaning toward bergamot. Bergamot with a classic weed aroma—a recognizable twist on the usual scent. During the grow, the smell was strong, but the carbon filter handled it perfectly. --- Flavor It’s too early to say, but the flavor is definitely there! Embarrassingly, all my past harvests tasted the same—like nothing. Just smoke. This one has a distinct sour taste. I’m excited to see how it develops after curing. --- Effect Too early for a full review, but I love what I’ve tried so far. The high lasts about three hours, with euphoria and relaxation. It’s the perfect evening strain. I’ve smoked a lot over the years, but I’ve never experienced true euphoria—until now. Guess I’ve been stuck with garbage and ditch weed before. 😅 It’s not a strain for productivity or chores, but it’s perfect for chilling, watching something, or chatting. No anxiety, just great vibes. It feels like having a beer after a long day: you relax, and life feels good again. --- Roots The roots were healthy—maybe too healthy! While the AirPot (20L) prevented root circling, it didn’t eliminate it entirely. There were dead zones at the bottom where roots circled around the perimeter. A dense root mat formed at the bottom (so dense you couldn’t poke a finger through it), which likely contributed to salt buildup. Breaking through that mat required more water, and I suspect this caused EC to spike 1.5x the next day if there was no runoff. Next time, I’ll mix some pumice with the substrate at the bottom, about 3–4 cm deep. --- Timelapse I only got the timelapse running after the switch to flowering, so it’s not from the beginning. Still, it’s an incredibly useful tool for understanding growth rates. I’ll definitely use it for future grows. Comparing yesterday to today is one thing, but rewinding a week to see how things were is game-changing. I recommend it! You can even use an old phone with a timelapse app if your camera doesn’t support it by default. --- What’s Next I’ve grown fat buds before, but I’ve always neglected curing. This time, I’m doing it by the book with full control. Drying in the grow box with RH controlled at 50–60% (averaging 55%) for a slow, even dry. Temps are kept between 20–23°C, with frequent venting to keep it below 21°C for terpene preservation. After 7–10 days, when small stems snap with a characteristic sound, I’ll trim and jar them with humidity sensors. For the first two weeks, I’ll burp the jars twice daily, then reduce to once daily for the next two weeks. After that, I’ll monitor the RH sensors and adjust as needed. I’ll share the details after curing is complete. After drying, I’ll weigh the buds, take photos, and share another post in a month or two after curing to report on the flavor and aroma. For now, I’m taking a breather, fine-tuning my setup, and preparing for my next grow: Wizard Trees - Zangria S1.

Semana 4 floración

The scrog was no good idea. Had to remove it today. Problems: unable to change water properly and can‘t clean the tank during the process. So.. scrog is gone and the LST is back 😂 and i switched to 12/12 because of my other plants in the tent.

The fourth week of growth has begun, and our FBA 2506 from 42Fast Buds is thriving. After the transplant into a 10-liter pot, the plant has adapted well and continues to develop strong and healthy. Despite being an autoflower, we're experimenting with a 12/12 light cycle, and so far, the results look promising. The temperature remains stable, reaching up to 30°C during the day, with an average of 27°C–28°C. Humidity is maintained between 60% and 65%, providing optimal conditions for growth. The plant has grown noticeably, now standing between 20 and 25 cm, with well-developed foliage. We've started applying low-stress training (LST) to shape its structure, encouraging better light penetration and maximizing potential yields. Additionally, we continue to feed our beauty with Xpert Nutrients, and the results are already visible—strong, vibrant growth and lush green leaves. Everything is on track, and we’re excited to see how our experiment unfolds in the coming weeks!

Week 4 (Kittys name is Donda) Running light at 80% Viparspectra checking day to day DWC water system working normally shes eating more and more Kept nutrient intake as week 3 Humidity at 40% Topping and mainlining also some pruning to reduce leaves as some where getting a yellowish tips (older leaves)

**Semaine 7 : Septième Semaine de Floraison – Phase Bulking Avancé (1-7 avril 2026)** **Note :** Mise à jour hebdomadaire. Tout reste RAS, les plantes continuent leur bulking de manière très propre et homogène. Données consolidées TrolMaster + GrowOps (semaine 7 / semaine 11 globale). ### Contexte et Objectifs de la Semaine On est maintenant en **bulking avancé**. Les buds ont pris beaucoup de volume, les calices sont bien gonflés et la production de trichomes s’intensifie. Le stretch est terminé depuis longtemps, toute l’énergie est concentrée sur le remplissage floral, la densité et la résine. Steering : **végétatif maintenu** (irrigations fréquentes, runoff 20-30 %, dryback nuit 8-12 %, VWC stable). Objectifs : continuer le gonflement maximal des buds, booster la résine et les terpènes avec UV 90 min/jour, garder une stabilité parfaite des paramètres et éviter tout stress qui pourrait freiner la prise de poids finale. **Petit point éducatif : Bulking avancé et rôle des boosters** En semaine 7, la plante entre dans la phase où les buds « prennent du poids » rapidement. Le steering végétatif reste essentiel car il permet une absorption continue et élevée des nutriments sans stress hydrique excessif. La combinaison actuelle (Cocos A+B + PK 13/14 + Sugar Royal + Green Sensation + Pure Zym + Silica Force + Cal-Mag Amino) est particulièrement adaptée : - PK 13/14 et Sugar Royal alimentent directement la formation des fleurs et augmentent le poids sec. - Green Sensation + Pure Zym stimulent le métabolisme et la santé racinaire en coco. - Silica Force renforce les parois cellulaires (meilleure résistance et densité). - Cal-Mag Amino prévient les carences classiques en flo (jaunissement bas ou pointe brûlée). Maintenir EC autour de 2.6 et pH 5.8-6.0 évite les lockouts tout en permettant un uptake optimal. C’est le moment où on voit vraiment le retour sur investissement des boosters. ### Observations des Plantes La plante dominante mesure toujours **150 cm** et domine clairement avec une structure massive, une canopée dense et une vigueur impressionnante. Le stretch est complètement stabilisé. Les buds continuent de grossir de manière visible, les calices sont bien remplis et les trichomes se multiplient (brillance sucrée de plus en plus prononcée sur les sites supérieurs et moyens). Pistils commencent à changer de couleur et à s’enrouler. Santé générale : excellente, feuillage vert profond, aucune feuille jaune ou nécrosée, zéro pest, zéro signe de stress ou carence. La plante secondaire suit correctement. Clones restent vigoureux. Les plantes sont pleinement concentrées sur le gonflement et la résine. ### Paramètres Environnementaux (TrolMaster + GrowOps – synthèse semaine 7) - **Température jour** : 23-25 °C (moyenne live ~23.3 °C, cible 24 °C) - **Température nuit** : 18-20 °C - **Humidité jour** : 64-74 % (live ~58.9 %, cible 62 %) - **Humidité nuit** : 49-59 % - **VPD** : 0.8-1.2 kPa (live 0.94 kPa → idéal pour bulking) - **PPFD moyen** : 750-777 (max ~814) → DLI 32 mol/m²/jour (optimal) - **UV Light** : 90 min/jour (maintenu) - **Far Red Light** : 30 min en fin de cycle - **CO₂** : setpoint 900 ppm jour (enrichment actif) - **EC solution** : 2.6 mS/cm (live 1.85-2.95 selon moments) - **pH solution** : 5.8-6.0 (live 6.43, runoff 5.8-6.2) - **Runoff EC** : 4-5 mS/cm - **Irrigation** : Fréquente (4-5 cycles/jour) - **Runoff % daily** : 20-30 % - **Night dryback** : 8-12 % - **Steering** : Végétatif confirmé ### Nutrition et Irrigation (Soupe actuelle) **Nutriments utilisés cette semaine (doses par litre) :** - Cocos A → 1 ml - Cocos B → 1 ml - CANNA PK 13/14 → 1 ml - Green Sensation → 0.1 ml - Pure Zym → 1 ml - Sugar Royal → 1 ml - Cal-Mag Amino → 1 ml - Silica Force → 1 ml - pH- → 0.5 ml (ajustement à 5.8-6.0) Eau à ~20 °C, temp solution ~15-18 °C. Irrigation fréquente avec dryback contrôlé → excellent équilibre pour maintenir le bulking sans excès ni carence. ### Problèmes et Ajustements **RAS total.** Aucune alerte GrowOps, aucune intervention nécessaire. Les paramètres restent très stables, le steering végétatif fonctionne à merveille et les plantes répondent parfaitement aux boosters. Aucun signe de fatigue ou de ralentissement. ### Plans pour la Semaine 8 - Maintenir steering végétatif + EC 2.6 (possible léger ajustement PK selon gonflement) - UV rester à 90 min/jour - Défoliation légère et ciblée (seulement les fan leaves qui bloquent vraiment la lumière sur les buds inférieurs) - Photos rapprochées pour suivre l’évolution des trichomes et de la densité - Commencer à réfléchir à la date de flush (généralement semaines 8-9 selon maturité des trichomes) Ce journal sera mis à jour hebdomadairement. #GrowLegendary #Zamnesia #Plagron #EternityGrowCup2 Les buds gonflent bien, les trichomes se développent et la plante dominante à 150 cm reste superbe. On approche du pic de résine, tout se passe idéalement ! 🌱✨

se viene la cosecha!!!

Que pasa familia, vamos con la primera semana de floración de estas Gorilla cookies Auto de FastBuds. Tiene muy buenas reseñas y pues me animé a colocar 4 plantas. Alimentamos nuestras plantas con Agrobeta. Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2 y riego en intervalos de 48h. La temperatura está entorno al 22/24 grados y la humedad anda sobre el 50%. Las plantas en si ya están bien sanas , la que está más verde es la que me cortó un poco en alimentar , pero por lo demás genial todo perfecto aquí.

Flower day 5 for mainline - This lady is really stretching! Can’t wait to see what the buds look like on this!😍😍 thanks for following friends & happy growing!🌱✌️🏼

Too small box :( Must out one of pot In next grow buy bigger box :) :) Can someone tell me something about HydroMars 450W LED ??

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2206 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... 🤪 But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Vivosun Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/15- Here we go into the second week of veg for the FastBuds Tester #2206 girls and they're on a roll! When I checked on them today they both were still moist so I let them go until I check them tomorrow. Basically at this point in the run all I have to do is make sure they don't dry out, fill the humidifier and watch them grow! 12/17- Yesterday I watered them both and increased the amount to roughly 0.25g each of de-chlorinated water with 3ml/g of Botanicare Silica Blast (added to begin to help strengthen their branches) and then ph'd to 6.4 @ 74℉. I've also increased the output of the HLG 650R's to 35% which equates to about 230w at the wall which, of course has raised the temp's in the tent so I've also begun to run the A/C unit in the grow room which is keeping the temp's now at 75℉ in the tent. The RH is running around 75-78% RH giving a VPD of .67-.74 which I'll take! 😁👍 Other than what I've mentioned above, all I did was fill the humidifier with distilled water and watched my girls grow! 🤩 12/19- Today I watered them each with 0.25g of de-chlorinated water to which I added 3ml/g Fish Head Farms Fish Sh!t and 1 tsp/g Unsulfured Molasses which I then ph'd to 6.3 @ 74℉. I'm now watering through the bottom, filling the drip pan and letting the plant draw up the water into itself. I am also watering from the top, but only just enough to moisten the medium. They're really starting to take off now, a sure sign their roots are beginning to get well developed. Their 4th set of leaves have emerged and I'm thinking over topping them in the next day or so. 12/21- Well, yesterday I went ahead and topped the #1 Tester #2206 taking off the 5th leaf set. Hopefully she won't stress out over this and starts shooting out those secondary branches. I left the #2 alone as she's not quite as tall as the #1. I may not top the #2 as a sort of comparison to see how each grows out. Today I watered them both with 0.25g of straight de-chlorinated water each which was ph'd to 6.3 @ 74℉. I gave about 3/4 of it into their drip pans so they can draw it up into their medium, the rest I applied to the top of their medium just to moisten it. Well there's two weeks of veg behind us now, Week Three of vegetation is beginning and they should really start to take off! 😍👍 😎💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! 💪😎🤙
