Welcome everybody, here we have the separated diaries from last grow. In this way you can visit and check any strain or any diary checkpoint in a easier and faster way. I hope you enjoy it such than me.
Germination and labeling in peat jiffy. Most of them germinated in 36 hours, Gorilla Glue Auto 3 germinated 12 hours later. On the same day they germinated I gave them their first watering of 125 ml water at pH 5.5 + vitamins diluted 1 drop every 4.5 L of water. Temperature of 25º C and humidity at 80%.
DESCRIPTION
BSF Seeds brings you Gorilla Glue Auto, "The New Californian Beast" in its autoflowering version. Gorilla Glue in its feminized version has become very famous in a few years for its great power and production, which will impress from experts to beginners for its large amounts of resin and its powerful effect.
Gorilla Glue Auto is the result of crossing our 3rd generation auto clone with an elite clone Gorilla Glue #4, obtaining a plant of medium height and easy care, totally recommended for beginners because it does not need special care, it only needs to be well fertilized to reward with impressive harvests. It delivers samples of sweet taste, pine and earthy, even fruit punch in some specimens. With a balanced effect that is euphoric at first, then relaxes you placidly.
GENETICS: GORILLA GLUE #4
SATIVA: 40% / THC: 21%.
PRODUCTION INT: 350-500 GR × m2
YIELD OUT: 50-300 GR × PLANT
COMPLETE CYCLE: 65 DAYS
ORIGIN: CALIFORNIA
EFFECT: BALANCED, EUPHORIC AND RELAXED
TASTE: SWEET, EARTHY, FRUITY PUNCH
Welcome growmies! Our gorilla is already a baby in her first week and is eager to grow a bit bigger so that it can be fed and start growing stronger and stronger.
First I washed the expanded clay with plenty of water until the leftover water was crystal clear and put them at the bottom of the pot. Then I mixed the substrates and added the microvite. I finally put the seedlings on the ends to make LST afterwards, when they reach 3 knots. This week they have 3 waterings of 125 mL of water with Hesi Supervit vitamins. I have not yet placed the TGL Star 60 bulb due to temperature reasons, I will be able to add it on Tuesday. The end seedlings are smaller, but I will rotate them weekly so they all get the same amount of light.
Have a nice day mates! Keep going!

Hello everyone ✊ 👽
The girls are already 10 days old, although this week has been a little rough:
- Hot days came and the temperature was at some point about 26-27ºC. I turned up the lights a little because of the temperature rise to 70cm.
- I noticed the leaves of some plants with a muted shade of green. That's why I added the humus, it happened to me in the previous crop and this is what solved it. I hope it will help me now, too. Although I only did a 1L watering for all the plants because they're still small.
- Some plants were bent by the weight of their leaves and their tall stem, when receiving air from the fan/humidifier they bent and tied them to a tutor (although later I will apply LST, when they have 3 knots).
I added the vitamins along with the root enhancer (without adding fertilizer). The rest of the irrigations did carry their corresponding fertilized. I use about 1/4 of a CO2 tablet per day (added to the humidifier water).
On the other hand, there was also good news this week:
- The plants seem to be regaining the most intense green color, although Gorilla Glue #1 still has me worried about it.
HappyWeeds! (=
Hi everyone, here we go with third week news!
- This week I have watered once with just water and vitamins. Next week I will add Big Roots again.
- Gorilla Glue plants drink much more water than their sisters so I'm irrigating with 500ml/2 days each one and 350ml for the rest of them.
- I have decided to stop applying the CO2 tablets in the humidifier because I have read that it is not very useful.
- We start to train it with LST and they are responding so good! :)
We keep going with the grow! I wish you HappyWeeds for all!
Cheers!
Hi guys.
This week was very hard:
- Yellowing leaves.
- Run off EC levels at 9 (crazy).
- 2 and a half hard days flushing (maaany times).
- LST is going well.
- Run off pH around 6.5 (I can't get lower yet).
- Plants looks like better after flush.
- Next week inverse osmosis filter will be instaled (nice water quality for the rest of growth)
As you can see, very crazy week. Thank you to @Roberts who helped me sooo much. He save my growth of 99.99% secure death. I hope continue learning, better results and plants improve their health next week.
Enjoying and learning. See you guys. Happy growing!
Hi everybody!
This was a better week. NEWS:
- Run-off values came to normal.
- All is ok with LST.
- Plants health is much better than last week.
- Most of plants are growing sooo fast.
- We have some small insect bites (I will apply potassium soap again in 2 days).
- Inverse osmosis system was installed and water quality is much better.
- Most of plants are already developing preflowers.
I hope we can continue with this good growth next weeks.
Best wishes for everybody.
Keep going!
Happy weeds :)
Hey everybody! How are you?
I was ready to upload a very good growth week but something crazy happened. Without doubts the worst new ever seen in my grow. I did LST this morning and everything was ok but I checked plants right now and I saw the Gorilla Glue #3 upper stem broken :'( . I forced too much. It is not 100% broken but yes at 85%. I tried to "save" with a drop of seaweed and surround it with tape. But I don't know if it will be enough. We will see next week.
Weekly news:
- Resin Boom was as foliar application (next week it will go in regular watering)
- Big Roots was just with water and just one time.
- Start with PK for bigger buds.
- I found springtails in run off.
- By the rest all is pretty good. Health, growth, flowering... I hope Gorilla Glue #3 doesn't suffer too much and doesn't affect too much the development of the rest of the healthy plant. But we will see.
This is all for this week guys. See you soon! Happy growing for everybody (=
Hello everybody! Happy to see you here. We go with week 7 news!
- I did some little defoliation of bottom and yellow leaves, just a few of them because I didn't any experience here.
- Resin Boom was used in watering just one time this week. Probably 2 times for next weeks.
- Light distance is closer to get more power at flowering.
- Yesterday and today pH was 6.3 but the rest of week was 6.0 so I will update this parameter to 6.3 next week.
BAD NEWS:
- Gorilla Glue #2 didn't flowering yet (but they looks like they are very close to start).
- Gorilla's won the battle against LST. They are hard now and I can't bend it much more.
GOOD NEWS:
- Health is good, they continue growing well.
- New light is working properly, they seems happy with this help.
- Gorilla Glue #3 is totally recovered of the last week break. She growed near to 12 cm just this week! Very hard strain without doubts.
I think that's all for this week. I hope next week we can see Gorilla Glue #2 flowers.
See you soon guys.
HappyWeeds for everybody!
Hi everyone! What's going on? I hope all be ok. Here we go with week 8 news!
- I did the last little defoliation (just to get some experience).
- Growth was so big this week: 16 cm!
- Newborn is growing under Gorilla Glue #1 (I don't know from where she born, maybe from root?)
- All girls are flowering now. Some are retarder than others but I will harvest them one by one.
- Big Roots was used just 1 time each 2 weeks.
- Resin Boom just 1 time each week.
- We finished with LST because is literally impossible to continue now (really hard stems). I think I can improve next time.
I think that's all at the moment guys. See you soon! Have a nice day and happy growing!
Cheers!
Welcome growmies! Here we go with week 9 news:
- We had problems with nutrition. I tried to change it but I fail. So I back to method I used until now. Thank you again to @Roberts for his help.
- Incredible sativa's growth this week: 16 cm!
- Trying to solve my nutrition problems I already buy Cal/Mag supplement for next week and a substrate pH/luxmeter.
- I increased lamp distance because of some red stems.
- We had this week some raining days and that's means RH increase, I turned on deshumidifier and I added propolix just to prevent of fungus.
- I removed duct tape from GG #3 break and it is totally recovered. I will upload photo next week.
Well I think that's all this week. I will try to solve my nutrition problem next week.
Take care mates. Happy to see you here. See you soon.
ROCK!
Welcome mates! How are you? I hope all be ok. Here we go with week 10 news!
- Low temp and high RH are coming. Trying to keep in optimal temp with heater and deshumidifier. I hope we can keep without fungus.
- Plants health looks better now about nutrition.
- Vertical growth seems to stop and now just work in flowering.
Not very much for this week. I hope we can keep as well as this week and I think all will be ok. Thank you everybody for visiting. Happy to see you here (=
Keep going!
Cheers!
Welcome everybody growmies! How are you? I hope everything is ok. Here we go with week 11 news!
- You can see in images the big difference between GSC with and without UVB light exposition. Many much more trichomes in girls wich were exposed to UVB light. I will report if the potency and effects are different also between both when we finish with the crop. Very happy with this UVB result. We can see also that GSC #1 turning purple in some leaves because of UVB. I don't now if it is bad or good. Just curious if someone can tell me something about. If someone are interested in this UVB light just tell me. If I'm honest I didn't expect these big effects from this cheap one light.
- Next week we will start with UVB to GG #1.
- Not very good week about climatic conditions. Heater was broken and cold came here. But now I have a better one and all is under control. Some girls are developing some purple pigments and that's simply beautiful.
Not much more this week mates. I hope we can start soon with some harvest and see how much can give us these babes. Can't wait also to test if UVB light is increasing THC levels. We will see.
Happy to see here guys. Wish you the best. Keep going!
Cheers!
Welcome ladies and gentlemans, here we are again with week 12 news:
- Another heater broken, another week with cold and humidity. Trying to get another one.
- We start with Gorilla Glue #1 UVB training. She looks to respond ok.
- Light schedule was switched to 24 h day / 0 h nigth to avoid too much cold and humidity until get the new heater.
That's all this week. Enjoying final weeks. I hope everything is ok with everybody.
Happy to see you here. Wish you all the best.
HappyWeeds!
Welcome growmies! Here we go with week 13 news:
- We start flushing Gorilla Glue #1.
- Some plants were yellowing and loosing health. Trying to keep the better conditions and increase the nuts to solve it.
- Too much work these weeks. It leave me no free time and my grow was suffering that.
That's all for week 13. I'm wishing to have more free time and upload completely the diary. I hope everybody is ok. Wish you all the best!
Keep going!
Welcome laddies and gentlemen to week 14 news! Here we go!
- Trying to solve yellowing increasing base nuts and giving worm humus between feed irrigation. We did like this:
+Day 1 morning: Regular feed.
+Day 1 night: Splash of water (to keep coco wet).
+Day 2 morning: Worm humus.
+Day 2 night: Regular feed.
(Repeat the process)
- Gorilla Glue #1 finished with UVB exposition.
- Crazy timer causes some moments at 85% RH (afraid to fungus).
My lack of free time is causing a bad ending but I'm trying to keep the better conditions I can. That was everything for this week! I wish see you here soon!
Cheers!
Welcome buddies! Here we go with one of the last weeks! Week 15 news:
- Plants health was improving.
- All babes were under UVB exposition.
- Gorilla Glue #1 was harvested on this week.
- All plants were rippering with PK 13-14 (2.5 mL/L) during the last 4 days.
- All plants looks with purple pigments (UVB exposition? Cold?).
- I bough a new timer because the older one was totally crazy and at this moment all is under control again.
- During the end of this week and all the next one we started flushing all the rest of babes.
We are really near to the end! Just one flowering week more and harvests will be here! I hope you are enjoying the way. Wish you all the best growmies!
See you soon! HappyWeeds!
Welcome everybody! Final flowering week at the end! Here we go with the final news:
- We flushed all babes with osmosys water.
- We finished with UVB exposition too.
- Maybe one of the most stable week.
- PH meter was broken too (I will need many new staff for the next grow).
*** DARKNESS EXPERIMENT ***
I did one final experiment before harvest. I tried to test how darkness affects to plants and I designed the following experiment:
+ 56 h darkness for Gorilla Glue #3.
+ 80 h darkness for Gorilla Glue #2.
I could see big differences on Gorilla's. Gorilla Glue #2 was really FULL of resin including on leaves. So I will consider leave the plants longer than 48 h of darkness before harvest.
*** UVB EXPERIMENT ***
About UVB I also see much more trichomes on flowers so I will continue using it in future grows. I still have to test the effect differences between UVB flowers and non UVB flowers. I will update it when buds will be mature.
Now we are in the end. I want to say a BIG thank you to all growers who helped me during these weeks and also to all of you guys for your visits, likes and comments. I want to say the highest THANK YOU to @Roberts who save my grow more than one time and teach me many things. Now I'm a better grower because of you. Thank you to @GBstrains , @BSFseeds and @growdiaries to support my grow and your excellent services.
I'm really happy to complete this diary and I have also roots to my father-in-law's arthritis. I really enjoyed all this process with all of you.
HappyWeeds!
Top strain. Big monster yield. Really hard stems. So beauty buds. She like's high nutrition. I growed 3 seeds and I get 3 different phenotypes:
1- Red/purple mostly indica buds (not compact buds).
2- Dark mostly sativa buds (compact elongated buds).
3- Green mostly indica buds (compact fat buds).
The effect is a bit strong to start and relaxing then. So good to sleep well. The flavor is really nice. Something like chocolate and fruits. Trustly recommended.
Top strain. Big monster yield. Really hard stems. So beauty buds. I will upload more info when it will be cured. I will upload smoke review and dry weigh too
@JamMAKEcan, the same for me. They are strong to grow and nice to smoke. I have 3-4 different seedbank gorilla's strains yet. So we could see more from gorilla here and soon (= Best wishes friend
@HappyWeeds, I've never even tried pure GG but I have some Glueberry that I got from a friend. Really nice smoke. Will get some GG seeds at one point to try it out.
@love_2_grow, Not easy to train this gorilla haha It has really hard stems when it's almost flowering. At the same time it's an amazing strain. One of my favorites for sure. Best wishes man (=
Good luck with them!
I would be afraid the coco gets too dry. I wouldn’t treat it like soil, instead get it all watered, especially since you only water every 2nd day. You can see how it went in my first diary posted here. I also started them in 10l pots from the beginning and I had the dripping system going 4 times a day. They loved it!
PS. I mean I hope you keep an eye on them at least twice a day. If they get dry at this point they would be dead in a matter of hours in coco. I saw you have some soil in the mix, but still.
Anyway, they’re looking happy. Enjoy! 😉🙂
@Green_Dream, thank you very much friend. Don't be afraid. They were already growed and harvested all of them. But yes, you are right. This was my first grow in coco and I had some problems until I understand it better but finally everything was nice! (= Thank you again for help and support. Please feel free to visit or contact whenever you want. I wish you all the best mate
@CroNiCGman, happy to read it! Uploads of this diary could be delayed because of promotor details but you can see the whole growth in my diary All Star USA. There you have 3 different gorilla's pheno waiting for you (=
HAPPYWEEDS
