Glad to be back from a couple month break. Germinated x4 Gorilla OG Autos from Shortstuff. I’ve heard great things about this auto so had to give them a go.
Germinated June 22nd. Planted June 24th.
Lots of progress from week 4 to 5. The two topped plants are flowering super fast wise the untopped Sativa Dominant girls are taking their sweet time to stretch some more.
Not sure how much I can push the ppm so going to dial it down. Better safe then sorry.
Satisfied with the results so far. Happy growing friends!
Hope everyone is doing well. This is the week 6 update for my Gorilla OG’s.
Having minor issues with PH / Deficency / Toxicity. Not even sure what is happening but i not too worried as I will just back off feeding ppm for 2 weeks and observe.
They have almost stopped vertical growth. 22inches on the shorter two. 30-32 on the other two.
Need to watch the top colas for bleaching. More next week happy growing Gd Fam ✌️🏻
Buds swelling up nicely. Going to start overdrive in a week and get the front twins onto flush. Estimating 75d from Seed to finishing and 90d for the back two girls.
Week 9 and trichomes on the speedy girls are 80-90% Cloudy, 10-20% Clear. No ambers in the buds yet. Just a few here and there on the fan leaves. I want to flush but Will wait another week for Overdrive to work it’s magic.
Hoping for 3oz dry but will Be satisfied with 2 off each.
The slower girls quality of buds are looking and smellling amazing. Will run big bud for another week. Then hopefully 2 weeks of OD before flush.
The tall girls still have a lot more bud swelling to come.
Day 70 update. The front two are getting close. Checking Trichomes every day or two. 90% Cloudy, then the rest are Clear or Amber.
Going to have to support the buds. Colas are getting pretty fat. 2 more feeds then it’s flush time.
For the slower girls they are going to yield well as long as they fill out nicely. Hoping 3 more weeks of feeding does the job.
Happy gardening everyone 😎
So It’s week 10-11. The shorty girls are done and moving into flush for a week.
I let pots dry. Using 140-170ppm tap water for first flush drench. 15gal with 2ml per Gal of Flawless Finish. Run off ppm after half of flush was 1600ppm from build up.
After the last gallon of flush run off tested 550ppm. Roughly 400ppm left
for second flush.
Estimating 65-70g on the shortest and
90-100g on her big sister.
The buds look and smell so nice 😊. Can’t wait to smoke them!
Second flush is done for the fast girls. Just waiting for the pots to dry out. PPM after the last flush was 135 including 55ppm being flawless finish.
Happy growing everyone. Harvest update next.
Great Autoflower. Holds true in my garden as the best Auto I have grown thus far. Most THC. No issues really with growing it. I grew 4 plants. 2 of which were short and Indica. 2 we’re taller and we’re left untopped. These are still finishing up and should produce more yield.
Will update this dry weight list as drying finishes. Smoked some already and the stone is heavy. Will need to wait for 2-3 weeks curing to get the OGK flavour / aroma to come through. So far I’ve weighed 84g dry but there is still 1/4 of a plant left in the drying tent and another 1/5 on the lower section of another in the tent. Lol those buds weren’t developed so giving them an extra week to get some kind of swelling going. Hoping for 100 g from these 2 shorties!
Ended up with 126g dry on the 2 short purple girls. There’s two distinct smells that come through. Fruity / Berry. And then a pungent piney smell. Just cut down the taller girls so will update more in 7-10days.

This was only my 3rd strain of Autoflower. But so far it ranks #1. Trichome production is just silly. Nice colours. Good smells. I had taller phenotype that took longer (96d) and the short one’s went 84d.
Yields for the short two were 117g dry not including any trim or little buds for hash making.
Tall girls yield coming soon. 0
Thx Bobo. Just some info I’d like to share. I tested my runoff during the first few gallons of flush. It was 1600! That’s from the build up in the medium. After the first flush (10gal) of RO I got it down to 400ppm with Flawless Finish added at 2ml per Litre.
I waited 3-4 days for the pots to dry out and hit them with another 10gal of RO. Got it down to 80ppm. I chose to leave that little bit in there for the buds to have some traces to feed on.
Chopped the short girls on Sunday evening. Leaving just the lower buds to get some light for a few more days. Harvest update coming soon! Happy growing guys!
@bobo420, Thanks brother! Two more plants are still going so check back in another week or two for those. Hope all is well in your gardens. I’ll swing by to make sure ✌️🏻
@TaDaaDa, Thank you!
I am using a Perfect Sun Dwarf Star LED that pulls 230w from the wall. And also a 125w Perfect Sun Mini that uses 125w from the wall.
For these auto flowers which only sit in Veg for 3weeks. The lights are approx 36-45inches away. Running 18/6 or 20/4.
When they flower I bring the lights down or put 5 Gal buckets to raise the fabric pots. So let’s say 30inches for first 2-3 weeks of flower. Then I will lower the lights 1-2 inches every week. Until they hit 22-24 inches. Once I am this close I stop. I’ve tested it out and with these lights I will burn the top colas and cause even crazier foxtailing so to get any closer I would have to have a trellis net / SOG/ SCROG. I will harvest the top colas then have a even canopy and lower lights to the 20-24inch spot and finish out.
Hope that helps & Happy growing!
