I definitely didn’t expect the gorilla cookies to get this big. I figured it would end up flowering smaller and it be a side plant while I focus on the Tropicana cookies but damn! Had I known it would get this big so fast I would have trained it better but owell. This is my first run trying fastbuds genetics and so far so good and this is my second grow since starting back after 4 years and going full organic. I had to transplant it this morning because it kept wilting and watering daily and could tell it was root bound in the 1 gallon pot. It’s in early flower. The blueberry is the one further in flower. I’ve grown a few ilgm blueberrys but they never smelled lemony like this one. It’s very strong of lemony skunk especially if u brush your linger or arm against it when moving or watering them. The Tropicana cookies and purple lemonade are still small and in solo cups with the trop cookies being the bigger one. Fully organic living soil with homemade worm castings. Blueberry had a calcium deficiency but I’ve corrected it. Also growing broccoli and kale lol
Goodmorning @appleyardjr267 Thanks for tagging me. It a pleasure on my part.
Your plants are really looking good from here. Is that broccoli i see? Gosh, i hope to get to wkrk a garden this year. I have one every year. Not looking good for me. I might have to just plant tomatoes and peppers in a bucket.
Cheers friend.
Stopping by to say hello. @appleyardjr267
Looking beautiful my friend. What strain is that? The gorilla cookies just won’t stop stretching lol. I never expected it to get that big. Taking up my space haha. Branches everywhere!
Hey there @appleyardjr267 . I see the stretch in those gorilla cookies. I like the stretch, i habe one now thst is about her 3rd week, she isnt stretching at all. I wished she would.
I am not sure. I wished i knew. I got her from a local grower who gave me a bag of his junk. It said sour kush, but ii do not see it. Plus he told me.it was not kush and he couldnt remember.
I tell ya bro, she has been the best to grow. Tent friendly, mold resistant and no waste. I haven’t trimmed one leave. Bad ass i tell ya. She smells like lemon bar of soup from the dollar general. A lemon sweet pine.
Very impressive .
Out if thst bag I got two seeds. The one you see the female. And a male in which froze at 16°f two days ago. Damn power strip flipped. He looks like he will pull out of it. He is in the photo below on the left. If ya zoom in you might find life.
Yeah i wanna seed them. I will one way or another. In time iill have seeds of them. Maybe some can land your way.
@appleyardjr267. Check this out. You got me excited when i seen your gorilla cookies. I had to show. Mine mix of Gorilla Cookies and Blackberry Moonrock
@kw_Bat Nice. It’s looking real nice right now. Looks happy. The other pic looked like some may have gotten over watered. Are they perked back up?
Yea this gorilla is gonna be filled with bud
Heck yeah bro. Do you mind what size pot is the gorilla cookie in?
I got a little girl over here putin out an icecream cone shaped bud. She is kinda cute. She is on the right.
Nice. Watching them flower out is always exciting lol. It’s in a 2 gallon pot. Was in a 1 but I transplanted it like a week or so ago cause I didn’t expect it to get that big @kw_Bat
About two weeks ago i had a power stip flip in the middle of the night. It was 16° out. It got down to 33° in the flower tent.
I have a girl 5 wweks flower. She froze that night. After that it seems her episode she had is trying to force her into flower. Just like i try to do when i ice bathe a plant. I checked her tricombs and she is changing way to early.
Dang that sucks. Wow 16 degrees is freezing! It was 84 here today lol. She’s still looking pretty damn good though @kw_Bat
She does look okay. But she will not put on weight if she finishes too early.
No biggie
Goodmorning my grow friend. Hows it going? I was checking out the plant. Whats up with the pink tape? Looks like my work there.
@kw_Bat what’s up bud. Yours could end up filling out nicely still. Maybe some trichomes are maturing faster because of some sorta stress. The pink duct tape towards the bottom is cause I slightly cracked a stem so I taped it back but I mostly use duct tape for training. I ziptie a rubber band and put the rubber band around a branch then pull it down then tape the zip tie to the side of the pot. I didn’t do it with this one cause I didn’t expect it to blow up like this and got too tall to do that too quickly. Btw my daughters the one that picked pink lol
I did it with this blueberry auto. This one been through a lot but still doing ok. Had light burn early on cause it was on the side propped up and a few leaves touched the light then had calcium deficiency which I fixed. This one smells strong of lemony skunk. First one I had of this strain to smell that way
@kw_Bat the first pic is the purple lemonade the second is the Tropicana and I was bending over the stem yesterday and went too far lol whoops. It’s basically like I topped it just an extreme amount lol and this is mostly everything I use for the grow plus the worm castings. I just got the gaia green yesterday that I’m gonna try out for flower
@kw_Bat and I buy a bag of perlite and add a good amount. Lastly I have a pk booster that’s like 0-51-40 or something like that and a bottle of organic fish fertilizer, pure kelp and some cal/mag but don’t use these too often. In the past when I had my tent I use to use bottled nutes like a lot of the advanced nutrients brand stuff and fox farms trio and general hydroponics ph up and down but I sold it all cause of my wife being pregnant at the time and since starting back decided to go full organic these days. If I do use the calmag, fish fertilizer, pk booster or kelp I adjust the ph either using some wood ash or baking soda and i use vinegar to lower but I don’t do it often
Gosh bro. Your plants look really great. The blue berry auto looks like great genetics. She is beautiful.. Tell the family that pink looks great on the girl.
When i look at the nutrient line up you are using. I do not understand your choices and or why. Thus said, I am so ignorant to the make up of soil that i do not know whar questions to aak. Nor how to comment.
So i ask this, do you start off with some kind of base then add these things? Do you add them all at once?
Thanks for any input
How you are enjoying your day.
