In der vergangenen Woche zeigte die Chocomint OG die ersten eindeutigen Blüteanzeichen. Parallel dazu traten jedoch deutliche Nährstoffprobleme auf. Mehrere Blätter zeigen zwischen den Blattadern nekrotische, bräunliche Gewebeschäden. Das Schadbild erinnert auf den ersten Blick an einen Magnesiummangel, unterscheidet sich jedoch klar durch das Fehlen typischer interveinaler Aufhellungen. Stattdessen handelt es sich um echte Gewebeverbrennungen. Auf Basis des Verlaufs und der bisherigen Düngemaßnahmen gehe ich von keinem Magnesiummangel aus. Wahrscheinlicher ist eine Kalium-Blockade. Diese dürfte durch eine zuvor erhöhte CalMag-Gabe entstanden sein, die zur Korrektur des Ca/Mg-Verhältnisses im ungebufferten Kokosanteil des Substrats eingesetzt wurde. Das Coco hat initial Calcium und Magnesium stark gebunden, was nun zu einer Überkompensation geführt haben könnte. Ähnliche Symptome traten bereits zu Beginn des Grows als klassische CalMag-Verbrennungen auf. Aktuell gehe ich davon aus, dass das Überschussverhältnis von Ca/Mg die Kaliumaufnahme hemmt und dadurch sekundäre Mangelsymptome bzw. Verbrennungen verursacht. Weitere Maßnahmen zielen nun darauf ab, das Nährstoffverhältnis zu stabilisieren und Blockaden schrittweise zu lösen, dazu gieße ich nun weiter ohne cal/mag und lasse etwas drain ablaufen.

Home stretch baby!!! Start of week 10 of flower, and things are looking chop ready:) The ill effects of last weeks PK burn have subsided and the plants are back to healthy. Have been checking trichomes and flower form, and based on my experience, these ladies are coming down in 6 days, October 6th. One of the plants has the hardest, densest, stickiest nug i have ever seen. So looking forward to tasting. I have been off the nutes for a few days and will be water only from here on out. I have dusted off my old bowl trimmer and drying rack. I have always wet-trimmed and dried in a rack. I dry for about 5 days and then start jarring and burping. The bowl trimmer is soooo fast. It cuts my trim time by literally 90%, will post a video on chop day. Updates later in week F66 - Chopped the one girl who had a tonne of amber in her. Looks to be a good 2.5 zips when dry, time will tell if my estimate is correct, but it comes from experience. Other 7 plants coming down on F71. Check my bowl trimmer video!

Week 9 Update — Gorilla Zkittlez (Flowering Progress) Dates: 11/17–11/20 Medium: Coco Water Source: RO Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms ⸻ 🌱 Feeding & Dry-Back Strategy This week she only received two feedings as I’m pushing a longer dry back to strengthen the root zone and slow vertical growth. 🗓️ 11/17 & 11/20 Feeding (1 gal each) • 4 ml Green Sensation – PK booster to enhance flower density and terp production • 0.5 ml Silicium Bloom – Adds structural strength, helps the plant handle high-intensity light • 14 ml Coco A – Base nutrient providing nitrogen + essential micros • 18 ml Coco B – Boosts phosphorus & potassium for flowering development • 4 ml Pure Zym – Enzymes that break down dead root mass & improve nutrient uptake • 8 ml Royal Rush – Metabolic stimulant for increased vigor and resin output • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic – Improves nutrient absorption & overall plant energy • pH: 5.8 • PPM: ~1300 ⸻ 💡 Light & Canopy Management She stretched harder than expected late into Week 9 and grew too close to the light. I had to raise the fixture, but I’m officially out of headroom — the light can’t go any higher. • Light was raised as high as possible • Canopy now sits just below the fixture • Watching closely for light stress or foxtailing Despite this, she’s handling the intensity surprisingly well. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Structure & Health She’s built like a monster this week: • Extremely thick main stalk — easily one of the thickest of the run • Lateral branches are sturdy and holding weight well • No signs of nutrient burn even with 1300ppm • Dry-back is helping keep internodes tight and reduce stretch I’m genuinely impressed with how thick the trunk got — she’s built for heavy buds. ⸻ 📸 Overall Impression Gorilla Zkittlez is stacking nicely as Week 9 wraps up. Flowers are continuing to swell, the plant is still drinking steadily even with reduced feedings, and structure is strong enough to support chunky buds without additional stakes yet.

Lemon is growing Doing well can see some big nugs Hopefully let’s see what Barney farm seed like

Ended up giving 3 more feeds but have run out of time again. Still not really seeing any amber trichomes but starting flush and hope for the best. Pretty sure I am going to end up with about 3 ounces less then first run but the buds look heaps better.

New week nice development in 2 weeks show the sex too

Flush is on!

Aug 22 - plant fed yesterday a.m., then got rained-on ALL NIGHT - “week 2 Flower”, end of the week will see a Defoliation of sorts. Plant was Schwazzed re: 70% removal of Fan Leaves on day 1 of Flower. Targeting day 20 (we’re at 15) 23rd - plant grew 6cm, basically over-nite!!! Wow 25th - Microbe Tea brewing for tomorrow - Pistils are appearing… 26th - rain overnite, plant is “still”Dry-side of Medium, breakfast time; 1 gal. Posted above. - !!! Cali Crasher finally exceeded expectations and has surpassed the One Metre tall mark. Measured from the orig height, of the original soil via green wire for LST poking through the side of Fabric pot. Its a beaUtiful plant *** tested the run-off from the Feed this morning, its been a while. Run-off = < 3000ppm, so the plant was flushed till ppm dropped below 1500. Yep, it took 5 gal of pH’d water. The Last gallon (5th one) included the bloom nutes, a 2nd time, due to the Flush. That final gallon equaled 1000ppm - next week sees a Large-leaf schwazze on 31st (20days since orig schwazze). Any key, medium-sized shadow-maker gets yanked as well. Still gonna call it a 70% schwazze 28th - last day of week 2 in Flower - Nutes for Breakfast 1gal - really happy this beast climbed over the Metre-mark this week

everything turned out very well :) and it's only with 50w and with 40x40cm space :) It was an interesting journey with her, a slightly different cultivation and old mistakes were discovered :) the flowers are not dense, but they are really very, very sticky :) I'm happy:)

Результат недели видно на фото Честно говоря, удивлён результатом роста в 4л горшке. Рипен лить закончил, неделя воды теперь.

This was a great strain for my first grow! The plant was forgiving of my several mistakes throughout the grow and just kept bouncing back. I had self-created problems with over watering, not enough nutrients toward the last few weeks (I started flushing and scaling back nitrogen too early, thinking I had a nitrogen issue). I'm waiting to review the smoke and high until after curing. I tested the THC and it's coming in at 17.5%-18%.

This grow was pretty simple ! They went a total of 103 days from seed! Very trichomy dense buds with the smell of Berries vanilla and skunk ! This is a must try for you all Fastbuds has the greats!!!

They are all putting on weight quickly and taking shape very impressed with all of them and they prob have another week or so before flush/harvest.

The main issue with Gorilla Glue #4 is that the strain grows so fast, you need to prune your plants regularly. I had a light-stress issue in week 9, it stunted the growth of this one plant and it is taking approximately 1 more week to reach harvest stage. Great grow. will do again!

Day 71 09/09/24 Monday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with calmag. Day 72 10/09/24 Tuesday Nothing, just monitoring mould. Day 73 11/09/24 Wednesday (END OF QUARANTINE) De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today. Now I have put them to finish underground a 600w hps under 12/12 schedule with the Divine Black opium. Luckily no more mould has spread, and all plants look happy healthy and still developing. Overall very happy I saved the crop ✌️💚 Day 74 12/09/24 Thursday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with Plagron products. Finally a video and pictures update ✌️💚 Day 76 14/09/24 Saturday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today.

Hello and thank you for stopping by, this is the start of week 4 of flower for this Sour Diesel Auto from Fast Buds. Everything seems to be going just fine still waiting on my beneficial nematodes to come in the mail so we can take care of the gnat larvae issue that I have going on. I am planning on getting some yellow sticky pads as well. This Sour Diesel Auto is starting to pack on some frost and some gassy smells. I am top dressing with 484 and worm castings every 7 to 10 days and watering with a pH of 6.5 of dechlorinated tap water. Nothing much else to say as everything is going smoothly with little to no effort thanks to my organic style of growing. Stay tuned for some more gassy frost next week! ✌️
