Plants are a bit stunned for a week, messing up with temperatures and trying not to kill them as a noob

Day 35 : Topping goes OK, Gorilla Glue at the moment is growing faster than Gelato. Sativa VS Indica

First week into flowering, Gorilla Glue is stretching more , genetically makes sense! Both look healthy, no issues. Also planted a spare Gelato and I will let it grow without any training, tree style!

20 days into flowering and thats how they are doing. Gorilla Glue is growing ideally for a first time grower, I really like it! Blue Gelato is a bit miserable but I cannot predict how it will go !

10 days later, more buds are formed, plants grow normally,, especially Gorilla Glue is growing smooth ! On the other hand, I experimented with defoliating Blue gelato as it was very bushy and no light penetrated lower budsites

Both continue growing without problems. Gorilla glue looks like its two weeks ahead, definetely Blue Gelato was stunned by defoliating

I defoliated second time, light defoliation on Blue Gelato again for light penetration reasons. Gorilla Glue is doing brilliantly! Weather is getting hot where I live, so temps are up a bit inside the growbox.

Tried to stretch Blue Gelato and I snapped the main stem in the middle. Noob problems, gaining XP ! Again, Gorilla Glue is ahead compared to Blue Gelato, I think when I crop, I will keep gelato more time under lights and crop it second

Trichromes are getting more , its day 52 of flowering and two weeks remaining according to theory. although Blue Gelato will stay more! It has reacted well after the snap. Nutrients are according to biobizz schedule and at their maximum amounts. Fingers crossed the grow will end up fine !

Another week, reaching the end of the grow. Both plants still producing new pistils so I will give extra one week to Gorilla glue compared to the seed provider timetable. As for the blue Gelato, definitely more than two weeks, I have accepted the fact that this strain has given me a hard time, Gelato is slow growing, short and miserable lady 😂 fingers crossed everything will work out

Im day 60 of flowering, one of my plants has spider mites (GG4) no webs, i've tried spraying water soap & alcohol , they're still there, should i be worried in such a late stage ? If i find a ladybug i'll put her in the tent, what else ? Im freaking out !

I have no webs! But I can see some mites along with the dead ones on my leaves and I'm two weeks before harvest. I bought diatomaceous earth powder to make their life harder
