The plan changed. I screw up the whiterush. I am very humbolt. So i get these gorilla clones here. There was some slow grow from transplantation but nothing to impress. They are slightly burned from light or something like this. I dont know how it is possible it happend after few minutes at the tent i think. It was very strange. Anyway Final nine pieces are a live and healthy so it is good so far.
I put the light closer to the canope on the start of second week. I was little bit scary about light stress but it comes quite well. Only issue here the plants itself are very tiny so I did quite huge defoliation. I hope plants get some strenght during next weeks so they will be able to carry nice fruits later. i am planning three weeks of vegetation so far. This is first run of clones for me so I am very curious about the results in compare with the seeds.
Another week passed. The Girls are stronger each day but still it is not enough for flowering so lets put aditional veg week here. I did also LST / HST maintance. I tried to select the productive branches from the unproductive one and let the plant focus on them. I hope it will works. I am also very very satisfy with actual substrate I made. The replacment of 1/2 vermiculite dose for a perlite was a very good step for aeration and it seems there is still lots of silica for a healthy thick stems so far.
All good so far. I put the light to full power today. The stemps are still slightly weak from my point of view in compare with plants from seed. Anyway they are looking very healthy and showing very nice vegetation time so no time to waste and lets go to flower! I am very curious about ongoing preflower phase but also slightly scary. So lets hope they will keep strong in the next days.
Plants has been stretched during the first week of flower very well. But there was some sort of pest issue at the bottom part of plants. I discovered some little white bugs without wings on tops of leaves. They were creating gray spots on leaves. Plants were looking overall very healthy but i wanted to do some actions before it will become serious problem. So I went once again for a maintance (Kyle Kushman + Defoliation). I never did it streight in preflower phase so i am bit scary about impact on preflower stretch but lets see what will happend. I am also using Canna Cure as another pests-counter. Another issue is that stemps are still quite a weak. Sure there will be mesh during flower but dont know if it will be enough.
Plants are already recovered from a huge defoliation right in preflower phase. My advice is: Never do that unless you have to! They ended their stretch very soon. I was expecting like 20 cm more. Anyway I needed to do that mainly becaouse of thrips. I used some spray insecticide from local store so hope It will work. A weak stems are also still issue. I am not satisfy with how things appears but lets keep it going!
About the flowering ... I think they flower very nice and quick so far.
Hi there! I brought some brief info here. I think flowering stage can be describe like "so far so good". But the problems with thrips and weak stems are stil ongoing.
About the thrips the threat is not solve yet. It was very limited by previous sprey aplications but there are still some sighns at lower part of plants so I tried the Rock Effect spray now. Hope it will finish the work because the time in flower is ticking and there is no room for spray in late flower.
About the weak stems. I put there a mesh as you can see. This will prowide some support. I have also some bamboo stics in case of emergency. They are flowering really nice to me fo I am starting to expecting some solid results so support will be necessary.
Stay tuned for update and feel free to leave a comment! Any advise is welcome.
Not so much info this week. The buds became adding some mass. I am also still fighting with a thrips but I think I am winning this match. There are also some nice colas forming. I am very curious about the quality as it is my first clones run. Stay safe and tuned!
Another week passed. The buds are getting bigger but not very fast I would say. I am starting to be slightly concerned about the genetics of my babes. I hope they still have something to show us. Weak stems are getting better as they have mesh to support them. The Thrips problem is still ongoing in small scale. New substrate and complete desinfection will be necessary for next round. I am leaving for holiday this week. My friend is going to care about this gorila girls. Looking forward to see some solid progres after my return. Stay safe and tuned!
The buds shown very nice progress this week. But i am affraid if 10 weeks of flower will be enough. I was expecting even less(8-9 weeks) for a gorilla clone. But overall situatioan is stable with some minor defects mentioned in previous weeks. Lets hope it will stay like this. Stay safe and tuned!
Feeding dose is on its maximum level since this week. I would say I am very satisfy about a quantity but the quality... well as you can see it is not so nice in compare with run from seeds. Anyway there is still hope Top Max will do its job as usually. I also slowly start a defoliation process as i have last 3 weeks to go.
The last feeding of this girls is done. The buds finally starts looking useful. Anyway they seems to me very fluffy and soft. I hope at least quantity will be good here. I am looking forward to my next run from seed. There is some old classics skunk genetics coming! Stay tuned
Alright boys. Here we are right at the before finish line. I am very excited about the final result. I decided to use this opportunity with "Low quality material" to test a legend about making better taste/smell. So I started to adding some sweet syrup for a final flush and I choose elderberry taste. Feel free to share any relevant experiences with this method if you have some.
Thanks for watching & Hit the like
Final week is done. I am going to proceed to a harvest now. Girls does not looks so bad as I was expected after all that problems here. But surely they are not one of that TOP models. Anyway i hope there will be at least some nice quantity.
About about impact of the flavor syrup. I do not feel any significant differece but maybe once it will be dried up there will be some.
After the harvest I also need to do 100% clean up in my room as there was a Thrips problem to avoid it any further.
Stay tuned ready for the harvest info! Thanks for watching and hit the like please.
End of this run was really disappointing as the quality was as you see. Anyway the quantity ended very well again very closely to 1 g/w. So I was at least satisfy at this point of view. There was also big amount of foxtails. I believe the thrips problem was the main reason here.
