Hey here we go again.. in the pics I explained how to clean the lava rocks but to make it easier I will put them here.
LAVA ROCK CLEANING.
1... fill sink with hot water and about a half bottle of hydrogen peroxide .
2 ...dump rocks into sink
3....shake out rocks from roots...I suggest you do this in another sink then add lava rock to other sink..it keeps from adding to many roots to water sink.
4....skim off all roots from top of water...now while the lava rocks sit in the water..clean the buckets.
5...take fitting from buckets and add to a cup filled with hydrogen peroxide let sit
6...clean buckets with hot water and hydrogen peroxide....dry bucket
7...take fittings out of cup clean off and clean inside fittings..then wash off and put back into buckets.
8... use a colander and add lava rock to it and run hot water over the lava rock as you move them around...then add warm..then cold water this will help make the roots brittle and easy to remove...shake off all water.
9...put rocks back into buckets
10 ...set room back up with all new lines...
Enjoy your grow, good luck, have fun
Smoke a fatty..see you next week
Help out a fellow grower.
Well another week, the girls are loving the new home.
I had to raise the light a little, noticed a little leaf curl, so raised it to 26" to 28" from the girls ..noticed a difference in new growth no curl....will wait until they are a little bigger to handle the light being closer.....need to find the sweet spot...but I think I got it....
Not much else to say....
Until next week.. Smoke a fatty, help out your fellow grower..
All right another week....
Ok my Gorilla girls are growing beautiful right on schedule did some LST as you can see to try and keep the canopy as even as possible and get the lower branches up even with the rest ..I also tied down the main branch to keep it even with the rest as it grows...
I will be going into flowing probably Monday ..by then they will be pushed out and just the right size......
Not much else to say everything is dialed in perfect ..
Until next week....

All right another week....
I put the girls into flower on Tuesday so it's only been 3 days .....the stretch is coming last couple of grows i left the girls under MH for the first 2 week of flower just to help keep the stretch down.....i really didn't notice a difference... so changed the bulb on Thursday to my HPS .. I waited 2 days debating if I wanted to wait longer but like I said not noticing a big difference in stretch i decided to change it.....with the LST I'm doing a little stretch won't be bad.
Everything is looking good the Gorilla girls are doing great healthy and strong.. eating up the nutrients with no deficiencies..
Out of these 5 girls all but 1 I have LST ....all the girls I did LST to are reacting great and pushing out nicely..... the one I left to just grow is also pushing out and going to be a nice chandelier style plant...Soon big buds everywhere..
Until next week ...smoke a fatty, help out your fellow grower.
All right another week closer...
Everything is looking good, the girls are eating up the nutrients and showing no signs of deficiency or nutrient burn...
The girls are responding great to the LST and are pushing out nicely....the one girl that I didn't touch is also pushing out and will be a big girl...
Until next week...

Another week closer....
These girls have been a pleasure to grow so far they love everything you can give them ...no deficiencies no problems.....earlier in the week a slight tip burn but after 2 days they adjusted and ask for more.....as they are eating up the nutrients I am replacing and upping it each time...pushing these girls and they are showing there love....17 days since I switched the light and they are filling in nicely.
Until next week, smoke a fatty, help out you're fellow grower
Another week closer....
I know I said it before but these girls have been a pleasure to grow...they are 23 days into budding and pushing out like crazy blowing up and stacking up..going to be some full girls.
Nothing to really say everything is dialed in perfect, this week it was very hot out so my room got a little hotter... but no big deal the girls really didn't mind...
Until next week.... smoke a fatty, help out your fellow grower...
Another week closer....
So glad we are almost to the end, the heat out lately has been a killer, added another fan to the room it helped a little ....
The girls are drinking alot ..they are at the point were the ppms dont drop but raise as the water goes down.. do to not taking up nutrients as they were when growing earlier, so in turn the last few weeks I start to drop in ppms ...I never have noticed a difference by keeping them high all the way to the end I like to drop the last few weeks ....if they are not using it why feed them it......
everything else is going great
Until next week, smoke a fatty , help out your fellow grower.
Ok another week closer....
The girls are stacking and blowing up, everything is perfect....
The room smells like a chocolate store, love it.
Nothing really new ...but started dropping down on PPMs ....if they are not eating the nutrients why feed them it.......
Now is just ripening time...the next couple of weeks ..mmmm can't wait for some Cookies.
Almost there ...another week closer....
Again not much to report ...the girls are blowing up nicely., getting soild as a rock....
