This week has been sunny, hot and wet. I have not done a thing except to keep an eye on Miss Gorilla Cookies. It has been a hot and rainy week and I did not feed this plant this week. That is why I did not record Ph levels and PPM, etc this week. I have really wanted to give this diary an honest, straight up review of Gorilla Cookies growing in whatever Mother Nature threw her way. She is tall and thin but has a lot of bud growth. I am eager to see how big her buds will get. One thing that I have not been super pleased with is using Miracle Grow as a nutrient. This outside grow was an experiment using Miracle and not my typical Fox Farm nutrients. At this point in my grow, Miracle Grow needs to remain for garden vegetables and flowers NOT cannibas. As a result, I have made an Executive Decision and will going add some @Advance Nutrients Jungle Juice for the remainder this grow. @Hindugod and I have been growing our Gorilla Cookie plants simultaneously and his plants look thicker than mine do. His weather has not been as hard on his plants as I have had here in Virginia. He is also using different nutrients. It is fun watching these 2 Gorilla cookies grow differently and the same:) Stay tuned to next week and comments are always welcome. Thanks for visiting--susquihanna

This week the girls have been going nuts! These are the largest strawberry bananas I have grown yet! I'm super excited to see what happens after taking these photos I cut one leaf off each plant. My first second time running this strain I did LST and my yield was much lower and it stunted her. So she seems to like to stretch. Check back next week to see just how fast these ladies grow! & remember is 4:20 somewhere!!!!!!!!!!!

Its a nice strain, smells good and its developing well.

May 28: Excited to start some new varieties for the 2022 outdoor season! Started seed indoor May 8th under Fluence LED and transplanted outdoor to farm garden May 24th. Watered transplant and covered with plastic house to protect from wind and sun until seedlings are hardened off.

Werde sie denke jetzt so lassen wie sie ist. Bin Mega zufrieden für mein erstes Outdoor Projekt. Die Farbe lila ist einfach Mega und der Geruch steigert einfach nur die Freude auf die Verkostung. 😄

Week 8 Looking absolutely huge😂 They’re so tall and wide . Lots of healthy green leaves and strong roots. I was worrying a lot about sex issues as when I did my research I found out they’re quite common to hermaphrodite. Was really worrying but all calyx’s have female signs (so far🙏🏻) so pray for me brothers&sisters.

25/07/2024 Lights On! Light increased: 520watts. Previously I mentioned the wind swept leaves, as well some are heat stress and slite toxicity from residue build up. Next grow, I'll connect all 3 buckets together and setup a mini system with resviour; should of done it from the start. Never-mind 27/07/2024 Lights On! 3 x 15L Buckets installed! Defolled and dimmed light to 420watts. 28/07/2024 Lights On! Increased light: 530watts Short Vid vid! 30/07/2024 Lights On! Mid-day! Lights Increased to 550watts NEXT GROW GETTING READY! (SCENE CHANGE!) Yellow Green - The Future X DC Seeds Yellow - Monkey Slapz X PreyBirds1 Red - Freaky Pablo X TerpyZ 31/07/2024 Lights On!

Dark Phoenix drying away nicely.... Should be trimming them at the end of the week. 😁👊🏾 Can't wait to try her n see how she tastes. Any questions just ask away guys

The stretching phase for all 3 of these girls seems to have finished now and they look to be going full steam ahead into bud production Carried out a good bit of defoliation over the last week to help expose more of the lower bud sites while also still continuing to rotate the pots to help spread the light coverage. The smell is increasingly turning sweeter as these buds develop more and more. 🍭 All on track so far 🤞🏻 ✌️

🗓️ 9° WEEK FLO // DAY 57-63 (from switch) // DAY 134-140 (from dry seed) 🌸 Below is a focus on the last four days of cultivation, my harvest routine: 🌸 [60° FLO] ⚡- Light: 30 cm / 250 watt; ⌛- Schedule: 12/12; 🌡️- 23° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.8 - EC 0.4; 🍔- Ripen is done after 10 day. Flush begins; 💧- 9° DWC change, 20 liters tap water in DWCs; 🌱- Phenotype #1 is showing spots on leaves, not a big issue at this point. Looking at the trichomes, phenotype #2 is ripening faster. [61° FLO] ⚡- Light: 30 cm / 250 watt; ⌛- Schedule: 12/12; 🌡️- 23° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.9 - EC 0.4; 💧- 10° DWC change, 10 liters fresh tap water in DWCs. 🌱- I cut a small branch from the #1, very frosty and shining! [62° FLO] ⌛- Schedule: 0/24; 🌙- Light off until Harvest; 🌡️- 18° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.8 - EC 0.4; 💧- 3° day flush. [63° FLO] - Harvest day ⌛- Schedule: 0/24; 🌙- 48 hours in dark done; 🌡️- 18° C - 65% RH average; 📑- PH 5.8 - EC 0.4; 💧- 4 days without nutrients in DWCs. I removed water 20 hours before the chop; 🌸- Trichomes: Phenotype #1: Milky 90% - Amber 10% / Phenotype #2: Milky 85% - Amber 15%. ✅ HARVEST - After 4 days flush and 2 days in the dark, I cut both plants on DAY 63 FLO; - Wet trim, removed fan leaves. 🔜- We are at the end and I am organizing my next two diaries, I really like this initial phase of organization and planning for the next four or five months. The "modus operandi" will be the same adopted in this cultivation, I will start with two very fast autoflowering plants and in the meantime I will give the two photoperiodic plants a long vegetative growth. I still have to decide on the strains, but I already have an idea. As far as the nutritional regime is concerned, there will be big changes, for the first time I will be using beneficial bacteria in my DWCs and anyone who has any advice on using them in this setup feel free to write to me and share some thoughts. 🆕- On week 15 I got the TrolMaster TCS-1 by @TrolMaster_Europe and I started to track my grow box data. I will add these info once I add the harvest week!

Added my other light to get it threw flower abit quicker hopefly

Seed to soil 17/11/21

Well as we come up on week 2 the plants are doing great and having no issues beyond the big stretch I had ... The plants all have the same height and leaf ratio all very uniform so far ... They were given a light feeding with the water this morning and the waiting game continues for a while once they big enough I will top and clone the main stem to try and see who is Amelia and female .. great genetics so far can't wait to see where these take me ..

Day 70- Switched to plain ph’d water mid-week, they have now had 2 waterings with plain water. Probably going to be 2 more in the upcoming week. Did a big defoliation mostly to help ease the final trim when it comes, but to also allow for a little more trichome development as she uses up the remaining nutrients. It’s been a much cooler week so I have been gradually increasing the light intensity to get a final push for some weight. Running at about 95% intensity at the moment with the tent hovering around 79-81 degrees freedom units. Checking trichomes daily with my 30x jewellers loupe, mostly cloudy now, some amber popping up, but mostly on the leaves. I’m watching my other strain as well, hoping the timing will be right for both to come down. I’m not in a rush, really want to maximize these buds, they are already very hard, and they will be decent producers.

This was an enjoyable and amazing learning experience and I look forward to trying to use coco again in the future. Thank you to Grow Diaries for making an amazing platform for people to gather and support one another! And thank you to the community for helping me through this experience!

Все проходит хорошо 👍 Со следующей недели промывка начнётся.

Week 7 of flower so 1-2weeks left for these girls and they looking 10/10 and smelling 100/10 my gosh! 🙌

23.09.23- 85 день жизни . Глобальных изменений не происходит , шишки продолжают толстеть и оплакать глаз . Это самое большое растение из тех , которые мне доводилось растить ! На данном этапе ее рост около 180-185. Сегодня я подвязал и распределил все толстые ветки под лампы , из-за своих размеров они прогибаются под своим весом . Теперь она получает все 300 w 28.09.23- 90 дней от прорастания ! Изменения идут медленно , цветы растут а листья желтеют . Думаю еще 2 недели и финишь ! Сейчас она очень огромная , а ее цветы размером с бутылку ✨🍁
