Grow Setup

Grow Diary

Weeks 1 & 2 : Vegetation

Sunset Sherbert Feminized seeds from WeedSeedsExpress quickly gained popularity, beginning with robust seedlings and promising genetics. Under the ViparSpectra XS1000 (100W) and P4000 (400W) LEDs, the early growth was rapid and thick. The humidity remained between 65 and 70 percent, and the temperature remained between 69.8 °F and 77 °F. We started by gently introducing Lurpe Natural Solutions and Green Buzz Nutrients to the plants.  This created the ideal conditions for the roots to spread and the seedlings to flourish.

Weeks 3 & 4 : Vegetation

Once the roots were solid and the leaves were thick, the plants grew considerably more quickly.  In order to prevent burns or deficiencies, Mrs. Larimar skillfully balanced the nutrients. In week four, this stage had its first topping. The objective was to maximize future bud sites and promote lateral branching. The plants responded favorably, displaying robust genetics, robust growth, and vibrant, verdant leaves that demonstrated optimal health.

Weeks 5 & 6 : Vegetation

Following the second topping session in week five, the Sunset Sherbet feminized plants began to fill out nicely. Things were much brighter thanks to the XS4000 (480W) lighting setup, which further aided plant growth. The plants developed a lovely canopy that prepared them for flowering with careful nutrient feeding and humidity control (now down to roughly 55%).

Weeks 7 & 8 : Early Flowering

With rapid stretching and bud formation, the beginning of flowering was thrilling. In order to reduce the chance of mold and moisture pockets, the plants were carefully defoliated in week seven to allow more light and air to reach them. The ideal temperature range for flower growth was between 71.6 °F and 80.6 °F. The nutrient schedule was adjusted to accommodate flowering requirements. For optimal potassium and phosphorus levels, Green Buzz Nutrients were utilized, and Lurpe Natural Solutions were added to enhance the blooms.

Weeks 9 & 10 : Mid-Flowering

The aroma of the classic Sunset Sherbet: sweet berry, citrus, and a touch of creaminess, grew stronger and stronger throughout the room. Bud density and resin production increased significantly under the strong ViparSpectra lighting setup. Careful canopy management ensured that energy was distributed uniformly, keeping plants vibrant and healthy. There were neither too many nor too few nutrients because of Mrs. Larimar's expert nutrient balancing, which maintained growth steadily.

Weeks 11 & 12 : Late Flowering

The buds became denser and heavier as the flowers opened. The swollen appearance of the resin glands indicated that they were powerful and contained a lot of terpenes. Changes in color occurred, revealing rich greens and lovely purples reminiscent of Sunset Sherbet. The humidity was further reduced, to around 40%, to protect the dense colas from bud rot or mold. Being cautious at this stage ensured that the plants reached their genetic potential without any issues.

Weeks 13 & 14 : Harvest Preparation

Mrs. Larimar's meticulous preparation resulted in a flawless conclusion to her growth. The buds developed into gorgeous flowers that were thick, sticky, and incredibly fragrant. She kept a close eye on the trichomes and noticed that they had changed from milky to amber, indicating that the best harvest was imminent. With constant temperatures and tightly regulated humidity, the conditions were ideal for the final resin maturation.

Detailed Observations & Grower's Reflections

Throughout the entire growth, Sunset Sherbet Feminized demonstrated incredible strength and consistency. After being topped and defoliated, the strain performed admirably.  It developed a thick canopy and robust side branches. The buds had a frosty, trichome-rich appearance and grew rapidly. The strain's genetics were true to their name; it produced a large number of buds, a great grow cycle, and a potent aroma that permeated the grow room.

Challenges & Solutions

Due to the high bud density and resin production, the primary challenge with this grow was maintaining the ideal humidity level during the final few weeks of flowering. Mrs. Larimar took care of this in advance by clearing the leaves and carefully managing the airflow. A meticulous feeding schedule and daily monitoring prevented pests and serious nutritional issues.

Harvest & Post-Harvest Insights

Sunset Sherbet Feminized produced an amazing wet yield of 14.8 oz per plant after 14 weeks of diligent labor. This demonstrates Mrs. Larimar's flawless condition management skills. Sunset Sherbet is known for its vibrant hues and sweet, fruity scent, which were evident in the buds that were harvested. They will be equally enjoyable and soothing after they have completely dried and cured. The high wet yield indicates that the final dry harvest will be excellent, with potent, rich flavors, and powerful effects.

Final Numbers

An excellent illustration of proper cannabis cultivation is Mrs. Larimar's Sunset Sherbet Feminized grow. It demonstrates all of the potential, enjoyment, and benefits associated with cultivating this well-known strain.
