The seed was put to germinate in a wet paper towel inside a zip loc bag, then placed in my germinator at around 25 degrees C until it germinated. It was then planted in coco and put inside the tent in the wait for sprouting.

Poor baby, at germination one of the cotyledons was damaged and wouldn't open. She has been struggeling a bit, but she's recovering. This makes her a little bit behind her tent sisters. We also have bugs! I've made a nice mix of Neem and a couple of organic pesticides against mites and thrips, and I have sprayed them twice during this first week. I'll have to give them some more I think... Due to Easter they got hooked up to an auto irrigation system early. On my returnal I was happy to see they all survived my absence.

So, this poor little damaged girl is falling behind her tent sisters. I will top the others the coming week, but I'm suspecting this girl won't be ready for it. She also stil has some bugs and I keep spraying her.

Well, this poor little girl is struggling a bit. Her leaves look a bit funky. It'll be interesting to see how she turns out in the end. Her 3 tent sisters have all been topped, but this one sure isn't ready for that yet...

At day 24 she was finally ready for the topping. The others in the tent were done several days before, so she's still behind. SHe has recovered well, though, and should end up nicely I think.

So, the little one is doing alright and she's growing. She has to share the nutrients with the 3 larger girls in the tent and that has given her some proper cabbage leaves. I have to leave the house for a few days. That means I have to put her on bloom nutes which I hadn't planned to do yet. We'll see how she'll react to that.

This thing is turning into a solid lump of growth. It seems that since the problem with the germination this girl has been strugling a bit. It seems she is completely dumb unfortunately. She isn't spreading out one bit. All growth is going straight up. As she is pretty compact this got her all tangled up and I tried to untangle her a bit. Also, her leaves look funny. I am super curious to see what kind of buds she'll produce, this one is definately a special one. She is in a tent of 4 girls, and they all share the same feeding mix. Unfortunately the other 3 are further advanced and have started flowering already. The 3 takes priority, and this girl has been suffering a bit last week from the bloom mix she has been given.

This baby still looks like some other kind of plant. I could keep this plant openly without worrying people would think it's Cannabis. This last week she has stretched a lot, 20 cm in a week. She keeps growing stupidly straight up. I have to continously untangle all her leaves and branches. I have removed a lot of leaves.

Well, this one grows like no other. First off, she's got duck foot leaves!!! All her leaves look funy and everything is growing straight up. It's like it is a very dumb plant. I have to untangle her branches and leaves all the time. But, she has kicked off some crazy growth the last few weeks. She has stretched a lot and is now 90 cm tall. She is very thick with branches, and she has loads of top buds. This will turn into something special I think....

She keeps doing her funky thing and grows really funny - straight up and all branches and leaves tangled up. Her buds on the other hand is starting to look amazing! They are packed with trichomes and look like they'll get very potent. She actually convinced me that I want to grow the other new Gorilla strains from Fastbuds - Gorilla Punch and Gorilla Zkittlez. Can't wait to start them...

This extraordinary plant is surprising me. I suspected she could give amazing buds since she is a mutant, but I didn't really expect it. It seems she is getting the frostiest buds in the tent.

The beautiful mutant is turning out to be a very special one. The buds are the stickiest in the tent, and she is full of them! I can't wait to try these lovely fruits. She's dealing very well with the heat we have.

The weird mutant has turned into a princess. This is a beautiful plant, even though it looks funny. The leaves are funny and everything has grown straight upwards during her whole life cycle. The buds, though, are turning into amazing looking gems - and she is full of them!

This was an exceptionally strong grower. It was something wrong with her and the way she grew, but it is amazing anyway. She had duck foot leaves and the buds were extremely frosty.

So do you have good results just using coco coir in fabric pots? Ive been thinking of trying it myself.. bothers me when the perlite on top of the medium piles up in one spot.. makes me think that side didnt get watered enough.. just my OCD haha

Yes @Professor_Chaos, I've had some amazing results in pure coco coir and fabric pots. It's my preferred way of growing. I only use Perlite with soil.

Nice grow. Just to let you know, the best pH for coco is between 5.5-6.5, and if you want to be optimal, it is 5.7-5.9 during veg, and 6.0-6.2 in flower. I just noticed you were at 7.0, good luck
Nickeluring
Nickeluringcommented3 years ago
Thanks for your concern @nerdz, Ideal pH depends on what nutrients are being used. Since I started to use the nutes I use, I never need to use my pH pen again...I haven't used it in a few years now and the plants are very happy.

Did you just freeze it and turn it into hash? What's going on with wrapping it together and hosing the plant in your shower? Lol to each their own, just wondering
Nickeluring
Nickeluringcommented2 years ago
@nerdz, No, nothing has been frozen. The strings around the plant is for holding it together when I take the plant out of the tent and move it around. Without the string the branches can break. I don't want to break any branches when drying the plant whole since it'll be alive for the first few days. I shower the plants if needed, i.e. if I have sprayed the plant with something or if it has had bugs. If it's really bad I do a full on bud wash with baking soda, peroxide, and lemon juice. Wrap-drying doesn't turn the buds into hash, but rather changes the buds to something different entirely. Its called cobbing and that's what I did with these Rainbows buds: growdiaries.com/diaries/39267-nicky-039-s-rainbows-cob-led-grow
