2nd Grow - Gorilla Cookies Auto

toxicswine462 Ayoo, yesterday she finally emerged. I'm very happy! I've just finished to set up everything. Humidifier, thermohygrometer, etc. The set up is pretty tight, the tent is 50x50x160cm but I managed to fit everything in there in my previous grow, so I hope I will be able to manage this time around too. LST has been my friend before ahah! I measured the DLI and it's 16, she seems pretty happy! I can't wait for the process to develop, always so exciting! I will update in a week or so with more pictures and details. Feel free to leave a comment if you have any suggestions, I appreciate it. Cheers!

toxicswine462 She is loving life for now! No problems at all in these 10 days, she grows good and seems to like the light a lot, more than my previous plant. In the first 4 days in stretched a little too much but I buried part of the stem and lowered the light. DLI at the moment is 24. I gave her this morning her first micro feeding. 800ml of phd water with 1/5 the dose of BioGrow and CalMag. All is well and I'm very happy of how everything is proceeding. Thanks for stopping by, till next week!

toxicswine462 Here we are for another update! Everything is going super well, the plant is growing happy and green, there are signs of pre flower already so I started a little LST to start putting things in place, I'll see in the next few days how the plant react to the stress. Currently I'm watering every three days with more and more water, nutes dose for now are 1/3 of the recommended dosage given by the manufacturer. I'm very happy on how everything it's going, I seem to have more and more control over the environment after my previous run, everything feels so easy and natural, let's hope it will stay that way! Ok guys thanks for reading, see you next week. Day 24: Since there were many bud sites that were struggling because of the big fan leaves on top of them blocking the light I defoliated a little, I took out 7/8 leaves. The plant looks really good and healthy, in the last two days she growled like crazy and developed 5 more bud sites that weren't there before, I'd say LST has proven its efficiency again, I'm very happy!

toxicswine462 Flowering stage has officially started! A little too soon than what I hoped for, but it's ok. She is still vegging even if she is in flowering stage. I pruned some leaves to let the plant develop more bud sites and it's working really good. LST and a light defoliation is the techniques I will use during this grow and they seems to work, plant has responded well. I'm really enjoying how everything is going on, for now seems to be an easy strain to grow for a noob like me, I had literally zero problems so far. Tonight I will water her and up the nutrients dose a little. Thanks for reeding guys, see you next week!

toxicswine462 Sorry guys, from this week until the 8th the diary will be less detailed because I've been away for many days from home and had a lot to do. Plant reacted well to LST even if she didn't stretch too much. I hoped for a little bit more of stretch but its ok.

toxicswine462 No pictures for this week. From next week I'll have some more material. The plant looks good and the smell has invaded the house, filter is on 24/7. I noticed some leaves discoloring a little, I hope everything is good.

toxicswine462 Here I am again, I've been neglected this diary for 3 weeks so I made a fast update on the last 3 weeks, not so detailed unfortunately. Today is day 58, some leaves are yellowing and I don't understand what it could be. It seems a Phosphorus deficiency but there are also this strange rusty spots on some leaves on top of the plant. From what I know in case of deficiencies the first leaves to suffer should be the ones in the bottom part of the plant but I don't know. I upped the calmag a little because the rust spots could indicate calmag deficiency. Learning something new everyday with this hobby, I just hope I manage to stop the problem because in my previous grow I had a similar problem and didn't managed to stop it so in harvest time all the leaves were basically dead. Anothe detail I'm not happy about is the not so even canopy I created. I think I started LST a little too soon and therefore deformed a little too much the plant. Next time I'll try to top for the first time. Other than the problem I mentioned the buds are stacking up really really nice and they smell amazing. Real frosty buds it seems as you can see from the video. I hope I'm doing good :D
