Gorilla cookies 420 fast buds

Tent failure had the light fall on all the plants and squish them, grenaded my humidifier.. We'll see how they do, I piled up the substrate around the stems of the seedlings to straighten them out/ hold them up. I've added a diluted mix of kelp and superthrive to help them recover faster from the shock.

Recovering well from the spider farmer meteorite that landed on them last week.. The bottom left stalled for a couple 3 days but seems to be just peachy now. Something to note it was also the same seedling that had the shell stuck on its cotyledon but I'm more inclined to say the stall was from the giant ass light that landed on it l.. Either way its all water under the fridge now boys..

Great week so far, two of the three are ready for topping then lst clips for the big fan leaves. I cut off the 6th node the second I can do so safely without cutting then next two coming in, the goal is to cause as little stress as possible while pursuing this method. The topping of the 6th node is the only cut I make everything else gets bent as gently as possible, followed by a light feeding of calmag, kelp, prop-o-gator, and a pinch of Epsom salt to help her bounce back as quickly as possible.

Defoliated the bottom right plant and applied a reversal spray, you can see in the photos she's getting all contorted and starting to change sex.. Sprayed on Dec 9 expecting pollen to drop around the 30th if all goes to plan..

Started the week with some lst mostly for better light penetration on the canopy but this also allows more airflow around the plant while the lower nodes catch up. Later in the week once flower was confirmed I defoliated and removed unnecessary nodes from two of the three plants, the purpose of this is to run a side by side comparison to see which method is more beneficial to the harvest of this particular strain.. Then on future runs of the gorilla cookies I'll know which method she likes more.

She absolutely exploded into flower, I'm out of room in my tent ill have to bypass my light cables to get more clearance.. The auto I reversed is showing signs of the reversal and is progressing very nicely, all that's left is for it to drop pollen. If successfully impregnated the offspring of from this pollination procedure will contain all female seeds, pretty exciting stuff if you ask me. Happy growing!

This thing wont stop growing, I mean its enormous I think its a strong contender for a scrog, after this run and while I'm testing the offspring from the reversal of the other plant I think ill scrog and see just how well she does. this is an exciting plant I sure hope the doner plant drops drops viable pollen so I can continue to keep working with this strain..

Impregnation complete, it's a little later than I would like to have seen it happen but I'll roast the plants for an extra week minimum to make up for it. The smell coming off these plants is hard to pinpoint at the moment I'll have to reassess as they grow larger and really start to stank up the place.. All in all a very good week!

Plants are doing great! I can see the seeds developing in the calyx and none of the hairs remain white so pollination was an unequivocal success. Couple of minor ph issues that needed handling but other than that its been a great week.. It's crazy the difference in phenos between the two plants, it suggests to me that the line could use a little more stabilizing, even the donor plant was considerably different than the shorty but regardless of that fact they are still very beautiful plants.

Just the waiting game now, residual evidence of an earlier ph problem but other than that the plants are progressing very nicely. I definitely have a favorite out of the two, I'm curious to know if the defoliation process is the major reason for the deviation in appearance between these two plants or if the phenotypes are really that different amongst these batches.. If you recall in entry 5 I left one alone and that just so happens to be the shorter stockier one, which in my eyes is the opposite effect of what I thought would have happened when I attacked the plant, my assumption was that the plant would go on the defensive once I defoliated and the growth would slow resulting in a shorter plant, the second factor that contributed to this thought process was the increase in light penetration, which would no doubt tell the plant that it doesn't need to stretch as aggressively, especially since I had the maximum par rating for the environment during that time. Even the reversed plant was tall and lanky and it was the other aggressively defoliated plant. It's not enough information to form a definitive answer Ill have to run quite a few more batches to really know what's up.

Really boring week, nothing changed, nothing exciting happened, just food and water. There's some really nice purples coming through the flower right now and I can make out the tell tale signs of the cookies on both phenos, they may not look the same but the smell coming of both plants is identical..

Stinky week! Other than that though not much really happening, the plant is putting all of its energy into developing those seeds so any external evidence of growth is minimal at this point. I can really see the calyx swelling up with their prizes though and that's got me excited!

Wrapping things up! Popped a seed out and the color was amazing, sent it over to a friend who immediately germinated it with much success. It's got me real excited for this harvest, that and all the thc building up on the buds they're really starting to shine in their last few days. I've also made a seed collector to help with separating all the plant matter, feel free to reach out if you have questions on how to build one of your own. Happy growing!
