Fastbuds gorilla cookies auto, Tropicana cookies ff, purple lemonade ff and ilgm blueberry auto

@kw_Bat badass! That’s a really good haul off 2 smaller plants. I’ve been seeing mine finally show noticable bud growth BUT I think I just now figured out what the issue is, I have calcium deficiency going on but I discovered it’s not because it needs some, the problem is my watering practices lately. Basically I haven’t been fully saturating the pot whenever I water lately because it’s usually before I head to work and too tired after work lately so the roots aren’t able to properly transport nutrients. I gave her a big time watering not long ago and took in waaayyy more water to get some run off than what I been giving and she’s still perked up so we’ll see what happens. She smells incredible though and frosty but my lack of full care and laziness is really costing me haha :cry: I thought the burnt tips on some leaves were overfeeding but it’s not. I plucked off the leaves that had late stage calcium deficiency showing. Lately I just been bottom watering and pouring a little at the top so half was still dry basically. She still looks mostly healthy thought. I’m not expecting her to suddenly blow up now though but I do hope she atleast end up with some density. Still has a ways to go

@kw_Bat hey what’s up bud? Man I’m still sick as a dog.. I hate it lol. I forced myself to tend to the other 2 today by tieing them down more and topping off with soil and a little dry amendments (not much though since I’ll be switching lights soon) and water them. They look very healthy but the purple lemonade is a bit behind but that’s ok. The first 2 is before and after of Tropicana and the other 2 is purple lemonade
@NewGrower31 here’s a update on these 2

Goodmorning, @appleyardjr267 dont let that sickness get ya down bro.

I am ready for this weather to change. Focus on some outside grows.

Your plants sound great.. I would love to try them.

I have one over here that s.ells and taste like cantaloupe . I dont know what to think about her. Her profile is so strong. No material flavor at all. I hooe she stays like that.

@kw_Bat ok now check them out lol. Finally got the pics to upload. Dang a cantaloupe flavor sounds very interesting. Not bad sounding. Yea I’m fighting through this sickness but damn it’s bad this time. I rarely get sick but even so I don’t remember it being this bad. But yea it’ll be warming up from here on. Right now it’s in the upper 40s or low 50s. What’s the temp where ur at?

I have a had a few sickness that have rang my bell like that. The older i get it seems the harder things are on my system.

Shoot man, its been a few days for ya. Might have to brew up some tonic. Lol. I had a friend. If it caught a cold or flu related illness. He would mix up Evan Wlliams wisky and honey. After drinking a shot or two of that and passing out. Next day much better.

I never tried it though. I just suffer through it.

Maybe a bud shot will make ya feel better.

@kw_Bat oh yeah!! I actually really do like that beautiful bud you posted a lot. I like the way the swelling around it looks. Did u see the pic of the Tropicana and purple I finally was able to post? I edited it in the original post. And I definitely don’t doubt some whiskey knocking u out when it sick may help some bit nah not for me lmao. I use to be a semi alcoholic in my early to mid 20s but these days I rarely drink at all. Haven’t drank at all in probably a year and half. I just turned 36 so possibly to you I’m still young but my body definitely feels old a lot of times because of being hard on my body

That Tropicana, she looks great. Bushy full kf life.. And those stalks on that lemonaid. She looks as if she will hold some huge colas.. Both of those strains do look good. Would love to try them one day.

My big cola girl, she is hard not to photo. She has about a week left. Ugh. Cant wait to smoke her though.

Im ready for this flower run to end. Ready to clean it all up and move to the next.

I haven’t seen @NewGrower31 , hope your okay bud.

See ya bro.

Yea the Tropicana is gonna end up with some nice buds. I haven’t fed either of them since planting them only the super soil mix I made and only water until today I ended up giving them a small top dressing of some dry amendments.(Oh wait I have gave worm castings but that’s not considered a real feeding) Yea getting close to harvest is always awesome and eager lol. I’m losing hope with the gorilla cookies lol. I’m thinking it being root bound is what set it back so much from properly flowering. I never had this happen before and also never had a plant that large in a small container like that either there hahahha @kw_Bat and I agree, when u have a nice bud going it is hard not to take pics. Usually too many pics lol

Hey what’s up @kw_Bat I been super sick lately. Been lasting forever. Ended up with a earache n everything. I just transplanted the Tropicana cookies today into a 5 gal so I don’t end up with a rootbound issue in flower like I did with the gorilla. She’s getting big. I’ll be switching light cycle very soon. I’m really bummed about the gorilla cookies but shit happens. It’ll still be good smoke and ok yield but small. Hoping it fattens up a lil more before harvest, she still has a good amount of white hairs. About half red half white. She’s super frosty and smells amazing at least haha. How’s things with you

Dang bro, still? I hate to hear that my friend. It seems to me its been a long time.

Nice job on the transplant. I sure she will appreciate it.

The rest of them look really good.

All is good my way. I have new beans arriving. Kinda excited about that. I got Bruce Banner Autos and white truffles Auto. And skunk #1 Regulars. Spring grows.

God to hear from ya.

@kw_Bat oooooooo now that skunk #1 sounds freaking awesome! A classic that helped pave the way for today. Bruce banner sounds awesome too. It’s always exciting getting some new beans lol. Yea man in the past really my go to were 3 gal grow bags and it was always perfect. I never really used a 2 gal until recently. It was always solo cup to a 3 gal and never issues and clearly the Tropicana was definitely gonna need that transplant before flower anyways so it was a good call. I was more excited for the trop and purple lemonade to begin with since those are the ones I actually bought the gorilla was the freebie. I’ll probably run to home Depot soon n grab a 3 gal for the purple lemonade before switching to flower. How did ur harvest dry? Yes man whatever virus I got was pretty potent. I rarely get sick but this one was/is bad. Severely congested

@kw_Bat I transplanted the purple lemonade just now. It’s funny because this is a homemade pot haha. It was a plastic basket that had big open slots around it so I had to put a pillowcase so there’s something to hold the soil in. It works lmao. I honestly like it. It’s basically a 5 gallon, 4 gallon minimum. I also put this strawberry gorilla auto seed into a cup of water n waiting for a tap root lol

The bucket is way kool. I like it. creative.

The plant looks better after the transplant. You must of been real easy with her. She has no signs of crying about it in this photo she looks good my friend.

Congrats on the bean drop. What is your estimated time frame that they will finish?

3 Likes

I have no idea when they’ll be finished honestly. I’m planning to cut the gorilla cookies in about 2 weeks then I’ll put the Tropicana cookies under that light and the lemonade will have the other smaller light. I wanted to let them get bigger this time before flowering. Yea both transplants went well with very minor wilt. Both root balls stayed intact for me. The first 2 pics is the Tropicana and the last is lemonade @kw_Bat
