Ok we started out very unhappy because only one out of 5 seeds germinated. But we won't put that on Expert seeds since we bought the seeds at a third-party supplier. The seeds were cracked and old. This strain stayed a runt compared to the other two but in the end she still performed and might live up to a gram per watt on LED. I harvested 700 grams wet under 300 watts. The buds are dense and compact. They have grown real chunky and are covered with trichomes. They smell like red fruit and mango's and we are very impressed what she managed to do to recover her bad start.

Nutrients
Always good, although we used it more like an amendment in my super soil recipe. And who can do without Calmag when growing with LED? THis one from BAC is rally good.
Just for those additional humic acids, and it seemed to have worked just fine!! Really happy with products by BioBizz.
Lights
The lights are bloody awesome. Super easy in installing, use but what a crazy amount of light!!! Im starting a new germination right away!!! See my Orange Hill Special grow for more info on the lights!! This light is simply the best in this price range! No ifs or buts, buy this light!

An here we are. At the end of another cycle. The end of another year, and what a year it was. For Sunshine and me personally, it was a tough year, with our families sick on multiple occasions, life-threatening. We are very thankful for many things but most of all that all our parents are healthy again. We wish your families are as fortunate in the coming year. So we end this Gorilla's life with a swift cut of the scissors, after thanking her again for the companionship, the well-needed distraction, and all the love she has given me already. I sometimes read that people won't go near their plants when they are angry or sad. Please do go to your plants when you are sad or angry! They are millions of years old. They have been healers of animals and humans since they were around. Our emotions can not taint something so pure as the spirit of this plant. She will heal us, give her life for us, sacrifice herself for our healing. She is all-powerful and all-knowing, there is nothing we mere humans can do, except disrespect her powers. Bask in her glowing light, enjoy her soothing energy, her creative spark when you are in need of love, just don't smoke her at that time, for she will soothe you bit not give her treasures, she will seduce you. Next to thanking Santa Maria for her healing, we would like to thank our friends here, all who shared their kind words, advice, and attention. I had made a video to share my thanks on video, but every time I got very emotional. You guys have no idea how tough this year was. The gorilla is real easy to clean and sticky and cristally. Its amazingly great to smoke! So a special thanks to: @Sailormoonflowers for being a buddy to talk to, @JamMAKEcan for being there with ideas and always a lot of love, @Roberts for being an inspiration @Cannabeast and @LegendarySeedThumb for always checking out my grows, to all who I forgot who are always here to greet me! @Growdiaries for being an awesome site and community and last but not least: @MarsHydroLED for letting us try their SP-3000. VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR XXX We wish all of you freedom, love, happiness, but also the awareness to see many of us are still being repressed, with growing but also with our human rights. Jah jah gave us life to live, so let us live brothers! It is time the rastaman made a plan! We are 99% loving people on this planet, we need no 1% to fuck it up with wars and strife. We need to stop cooperating, peacefully resist. If you can buy local, ban exploiting multinationals. Help your local businesses, help your neighbors, we need to wake up and stop funding this black stain on our planet. Sell your stock in multinationals, invest in local businesses. Buy local products, speak out when you get taxed higher than millionaires (and you are). The day is coming my brothers and sisters. Soon a handful of CEO's will find out when billions are done with them. For now thanks for everything!
Smoke review
This plant seemed to hang in there and did give us 112 grams of rock hard, trichome covered dense nugs. So we never complain but compared to the other two, this plant is way behind. Half of the Orange Hill Special, probably a quarter of the Xtrakush (see other diaries). But she was a dream to clean and a joy to smoke, not as tasty as she should she needs a cure. The smell is of pineapple, exotic and full, but there is also still a plant smell, as she had probably dried too fast in the winter air. I need to humidity my grows more. She is very stoned, body, relaxed, heavy and buzzing, sometimes even narcotic and loss of coordination, train of thought o r wtf I was saying. I love it. All in all I wouldn't grow her again that fast, there's too many great strains with much higher yields, more adapted to my style of growing. See my Xtrakush diary to see how I find a diamond in the rough at a dollar a seed. Thanks guys and see you soon! Hug Sunshie and Bud

@BioBuds, Oh yes, the third party service.... then they should know about it because it is bad for them and not their fault.

The sp3000 is an amazing capable unit indeed. I get some rock solid buds and plenty of them from the sp3000. Used it since release and gives amazing output every crop now. I can get 6 autos under to full harvest with no loss on yield , avg 3oz per plant perpetual growing with it. Also brings the new seedlings up to the point of swapping out at harvest of each flowering plant. So capable when really pushed too.

@Ganjagrandaddy, ooh yeah was eyeballing that light too. But for now my scale is enough for my needs and for my nights sleep. See you soon on your diary!!

@BioBuds,have to agree there. I am hoping to try their fc3000 very soon too from the new series. Some good l.e.d. tech about now. You are welcome to come over anytime , any comments/ideas/suggestions more than welcomed and appreciated . Good luck.

@Ganjagrandaddy, so far im so amazed with this output, I had a comparable 300 watt system before this, the output is visibly blowing the other out of the water. I cant look at the light bundle with this one. With the other no problem, as long as not direct into the leds. So happy with it so far and the OHS is goig so great. It grew twice the size since my last post. BEST LIGHT OUT THERE RIGHT NOW! Enjoy yours man, im goona check your grows!

@JamMAKEcan, I think in the long run it isnt more expensive, the nutrients I use also cost a lot and use nothing so far. Also the soil is able to grow multiple harvests, Im starting in this exact same soil after this grow, to see if this soil also gets only better, like subcool's recipe.
