Song of the week : Travis Scott - STOP TRYING TO BE GOD
-----------------------
Gorilla Girl is Coming ! I had to make a choice between a Girl scout cookies and a Gorilla Glue , so to avoid any frustration I took the best of both Worlds : The Girl scout x Gorilla.
------
Day 5 - 09.09 - First pictures of the lady. She get out of her shell easily and She's now thriving well 😍😍👍 She breaks her shell really quick , she was already ready in 48h but perfect for poting in 72h , good vigor so far.
Song of the week : The Fugees - Fu-Gee-La
------
Day 9 - Nice changes since last week. 2 nodes now and she's working on the 3rd one. I'm planning to top her early to get a nice bush over a tall plant.
-------
Day 11 - She got a new house ! She's now in a 3L pot to make a good roots system and to start the 1st toping.
SONG OF THE WEEK: G-easy - I mean it
-------
Day 16 - 20.09 - The girl is doing pretty good in her new 3L pot and the roots hit the bottom until day 18 so I can say that she's vigorous like the others Sweet seeds strains I'm actually growing. I think that she will need another pot in 1 week or 2. I did not feed her as I believe that their is enough nutrients in the soil for that stage.
-------
Day 17 - Healthy and nice 🌟I think she will be top soon 🍃. Enjoy the pictures
-------
Day 20 - Roots settled very well in the 3L pot , they touched the bottom of the pot 💪 so I switch to a 7L pot with the same soil (TKS 2 from FloraGard). She's still under a 50w led UFO until she get out but before that she will have to settle in the final 15L pot 🙌. She's pushing secondery stems , one more node and I top her to shape a little bush 😁. Pictures incoming
-------
Day 21 - Last day of the 3rd week , everything looks great 🌱👍. See you next week 😁
Song of the week : Korn - Falling Away from Me
-------
Day 22 - The girl is now 20 cm tall and she's healthy 🔥I topped her today so now I'm waiting on a secondary stems explosive grow 👍.
-------
Day 28 - The girl is growing well , I did a kind of supercroping but I 1st wanted to pinch the last node but did it to hard and stem is falling at 90° let's see where it will lead us.
Song of the week : The Beatnuts - Watch Out Now
-------
Day 33 - Recovered nice from last week topping , she's pushing secondary stems 🌱. I tried a supercroping so let's see how she react. Still watered with tap water , the pre-fertilized soil provide enough nutrients until her next and final transplant to a 15L pot.
Song of the week : J. Cole - ATM
-------
Day 38 - Under watering issue like the whole Run so I give her water today and transplant her to a new 14L pot, as you can see the roots system is healthy , many roots . I also used a wire to keep the supercroping low and I break a bit the main stem like you can see on the picture.
Song of the week : The Roots - The Seed (2.0) ft. Cody ChesnuTT
-------
Day 44 - 18.10 - Only water since day 1 ✌️ , it is important to understand that each repoting is a fertilizing when the proper medium is used, no need to hurry on adding fertilizer if you're not running a light mix type of soil 😛. The Gorilla is still under a cheap unbranded 50w UFO led.
--------
Day 47 - Nothing to report. She is ready for the flowering stage in 2 days 😛✌️
Song of the week : Joyner Lucas - I Love
-------
Day 51 - She is outdoor since day 48 so she will now start to stretch 😀. The structure is nice but I broke the right side apex 2 days ago ( will try to clone it even if the apex is not the best part of the plant for a successful cloning ) , I hope that it will makes the right side more bushy than the left side. No feeding , only water but I will give her some MegaCrop soon. Stay tuned
-------
Day 52 - 2L Feeding with Hybrids Powder + Calcium to support the stretch , I pinched the stems and made a clone with a little video to let you see how 😁👍
. Like you can see I did not used MegaCrop and I feed sooner than expected.

Song of the week : DJ Snake feat Selena Gomez, Ozuna & Cardi B - Taki Taki
-------
Day 57 - I checked the height and she is now 73 cm tall on the higher apex. Nice evolution but I hope she will remain under 90 cm.
-------
Day 59 - 02.11 - This gorilla girl get taller every days but seems to prefers the eight over the se ondary stems so I try to pinche the apexes as often as possible to keep it short. She will be watered with tap water soon.
-------
Day 62 - She is way taller than 3 days ago and the pistils are here 👍😁. The rain did fall serval times today so no watering before the soil get dry.
The clone is still in veg but I checked and it have roots so the next generation is already ready 😁. I also removed 2 of the lower stems and a 3rd one will follow, maybe I'll clone them too 👍
Song of the week : Shyne - Bad boyz
-------
Day 65 - Maybe the end of the stretch or maybe not bit due to her lineage I think she will continue to grow a bit taller.
She's pushing pistils everywhere and have a strong structure with pretty hard stems but not so "large".
Every time I touch her She's smelling dank like a old schook skunk mixed with something kushy 😍.
The clone is also fully rooted and will be tranplant into a 3L pot soon and you will also follow her veg during the flowering to show you how to get a plant ready to flower and the and of the 1st plant harvest.
-------
Day 66 - The rain is falling every days so I can't give nutrients mixed in water so I used the September Giveway prizes ( thank you GD ) 👉 Mr B's Green Trees Bloom ( npk 2-8-6 ) . I poored 1 table spoon of the nutrient straight in the soil. Let's see how it works
-------
Day 67 - Nothing to report since yesterday, the Gorilla is still growing vertically
Day 17 - Now the clone is a true plant so I transplant her in a 3L pot and I'll top her next week 😚
Song of the week : Charly Black & J Capri - Wine & Kotch
-------
Day 71 - The Gorilla ( G-unit ? ) is entering in her 4th week of flowering : that's mean the feeding need to be heavier ✌️
The girl is tall , no signs of nutrients deficiencies or excess 💪 and you can see that she already produce a good amount of trichomes on the suga leaves 😚
Still no manual watering thanks to the daily rain so she's gonna get some Mr.B's dry nutrients to take advantage of the rain 🌦️
-------
Day 72 - Height update : 101cm tall for the Gorilla 👍📸
-------
Day 74 - Pictures update after a rainy morning and a sunny afternoon. Feeding today with one table spoon of Mr B's Bloom. 2nd feeding this week so let's see if she can handle it ✌️
-------
Day 77 - 20.11 - Last day of the week and the buds of rhe girl are packing nicely , I love the structure even at that stage I an say it will be a dense bud structure with a lot of trichomes everywhere . A real pleasure
Song of the week : The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony VS Sugar Daddy - Sweet Soca Music
-------
Day 79 - This week starts with a 1.8Ec feeding with MegaCrop to keep it organic ( I believe it's organic but not sure it is ).
The buds are swelling, the calyxes looks like bubbles 😍 and the trichomes production is one of the best so far.
The smell is discreet but loud , will talk about this later.
-------
Day 81 - The sun is back And The temperatures can be around 32°C in the garden and 27/28 in the house at mid day so she will need water soon
-------
Day 84 - She get water yesterday 2L more or less. During the next week my feeding is gonna be heavier than usual , maybe she'll burn , maybe not but I really wanna push my plants to their limits this time.
Song of the week : Joyner Lucas - Litty Freestyle
--------
Day 87 - 30.11 - Nothing special to report this week except for a bud rot that you can see on the pictures , nothing really new here because my RH remain high outside
Today she received 5L of water mixed with MegaCrop at 1.8Ec to get the bud fatter and I think I will try a 2/ 2.5 Ec level just to see how it turns but something tells me that she can handle it 💯🌱
-------
Day 89 - 02.12 - She drinks so much that she received 3L of water between last feeding and today.
Today she received 4L of water mixed with Hybrids Powder + MegaCrop + PK powder for a total of ... 2.07 EC 😲 so from today the futur offer 2 possibilities :
1st - She loves it and then swelling more
2nd - She fried and I will have to flush the medium 😒
Let's see what happens
Song of the week : Shenseea - Loodi ft. Vybs kartel
-------
Day 92 - F+43 - She's just swelling and smelling choco , the choco smell must be due to her Gsc lineage 😁✌️🏼
The rain is back since 3 days and the soil has been fairly flush so I'll give her some Mr.B's Bloom powder direct into the soil 🌺
-------
93 - 06.12 - Today I cut a bud with some bud rot instead of removing just the damaged parts I took the whole bud in attempt to make a smoke test. I have to admit that the strong chocolate door mixed with the typical Kush flavour make.me turns impatient and weak 😋🦎
-------
Day 98 - 11.12 - Pictures update
Song of the week : A$AP Rocky - Tony Tone
-------
Day 99 - What can you do in 99 days ? Growing a big Gorilla is one of the possibilities ! You can also go to Congo and see a real one if you can afford it or go to the zoo ( Wtf I am talking 'bout).
The girl is doing good , I think it's useless to feed her more but I will do it to continue with the High pk values I tried earlier.
The smell is now a problem because every morning the house is smelling weed and the plant is in the garden so imagine what it is in the garden , I'm surprised that my neighbour did not call the cops : he likes to call them instead of talking to me , last time was because 2 branches was going from my garden to his garden so during flowering I keep my garden clean to keep the cops away 😁✌️🏼
-------
Day 100 - I changed my mind ... flush until next week during 10 days or less then I harvest. The main reason is because of the smell : that thing is too deep to be stealth, fortunately she already have the good trichomes ratio to me.
The smell could make the flush shorter. We will see
-------
102 - 15.12 - Today I changed my mind once again , after a trichomes check I noticed that some trichomes were purple and some part of the plant too. I already seen that phenomenon on the GSC so I bet this colour is due to her Gsc lineage.
Now my goal is to cut her when she'll have some visible purple on the buds even if the trichomes ratio is changing for more amber ( actually around 10/15% and I can wait until 30% but no more ) ✌️🏼😁
Super news for me ad it is the 1st time I can see a purple trichomes
Song of the week : Calvin Harris & Dua lipa - One kiss
-------
Day 106 - It's the last day ... before the last day 😁✌️🏼 The smell is very strong, it is a deep smell that you can't miss when you are around , a mix between a deep Kush, chocolate and a hint of coffee, exactly what I need. I'm a big fan of raw tastes and smell like this one ( by the way I'm actually searching for a cat piss smelling haze and a Dead dog smelling skunk ) .
Miss spinner is not happy to know that this one will dry in the bedroom 😓 I will need to make a better Xmas gift than the one I have for her 🤣
The harvest song : El Chombo - Dame tu Cosita
-------
I used to call my self "The Low Yield Master" but that Gorilla Girl makes me an average yielder 🤔
The 1st result was 102 grams with trims , you can see it in the round container... but 2 days after we are down to 98 grams with trims 😁😋 After the trimming rhe final weight is down to 81g of buds ( total weight - trims weight = real weight so 97.9 - 16.3 = 81.6 )
---------
#The Grow :
The gorilla girl is easy to grow from the seedling to the harvest , this phenotype wasn't a short one , more like a mid height to tall strain.
During the vegetative stage she required some training to control her height : she has been topped then I practice some HST on the main stem ( under the topped part )
and some minor LST on the secondaries and she recovered fast each times so it is a resilient strain and I have the feeling that she could easily fill a scrog net for my indoor grow mates 😉
During the vegetative stage the stretch need to be control if you have a limited grow space because she will easily grew twice to 3 time her height before the 12/12 light schedule. The stretch of that one was longer than what I can usually observe, 3 weeks of stretch.
My feeding wasn't pretty heavy except for the last one and she did not looked like she needed more but I have the persistent feeling that she could have been heavily feed without any issues so maybe a new run will confirm that thought.
It took me 9 weeks of flowering to obtain 81 grams of top notch quality flowers , with 10 or 11 weeks she would have been perfect , my feeding and environment can lead to a slower growth phase than what the breeder recommend.
#The Smoke test :
The taste : Is amazing , a pure deep earthy Kush taste mixed with a strong chocolate aroma ( black chocolate ) and a nice menthol hint when you exhale 😍 something more complex can be find in the secondaries flavours like a mix of spices , maybe a hint of cinnamon and black pepper. That perfect dosage of different flavours makes every puffs a pleasure and the little extra is that it remind me of a weed I've smoked in 2011/2012 at the Green Place coffeeshop in Amsterdam 😍.
This kind of taste can be seen as strong so a casual smoker will have a real surprise with the 1st puff.
The effect : If someone ask me to describe the effect with 1 or 2 words my answer is : a slap. A big slap in you face , a big motivation killer so don't expect to smoke one and to be fresh enough to act as usual. The only things you will want to do after a joint are : Netflix or Read a book and maybe talk with someone as stone as you because it is one of the good part of the effects , this weed makes you thinks about a lot of different stuffs in a minute , not like creative kind of effect but more like a "philosopher effect", you'll think about your previous ideas with an other point of view.
The effect is long lasting BUT not as long as an haze for example so you can expect to recover from your wake'n'bake morning in the afternoon ( no more effect except foe a slight heavy eyes sensation).
-------
After my Green Poison XL auto , it is the 2nd harvest of my Run #5 ✌️🏼
A big up to my Grow mates who reads these lines , it's always cool to know that the community is here to help and share 😘: 1:
Cheers and see you soon for the 3 last harvest of the Run #5
-----------
Total Run#5 :
-Green poison XL auto : 50g
-Gorilla Girl : 80g
I'm happy with the final Yield and with every aspect of that grow , this strain is potent , tasty and really easy to grow.
I believe that my phenotype is more on the cookies side but I never grew any other Gorilla strain before so it will be hard to compare.
Any Indica or/and Kush lovers will love to smoke it , I recommend it ✌️🏼😉😍🦎
@OutForReal, My Gorilla Girls smell sweet,nutty,cake,over ripe melons and are almost finished now. Frosting came later in flowering than most other plants I've grown also.
@Respectthecosmos,Haha bro , after the 3d printing it will be the next revolution 🙌 I can try to describe but the smell is really complex and will change for sure to something Danker ( I hope ) 😁
@Sweet_Seeds, This strain is dope 😁, thanks to your breeding work !! I think it gonna be an explosive grow like my Sweet skunk auto ! Since I know sweet seeds ( 5 years) I never found a company with such "easy to grow" strains and I thank you for that 👍. I remember of your 3 strains pack when you was a young company 😍😍😍
@ChefDan420,Thank you chef and ... wait for it .... a bit more .... I have some coco oil at home so next week ( next year tho ) I'm finally gonna cook that canna chocolate recipe you gave to me 2 month ago 🙌😁
@Sweet_Seeds,Thank you amigo 😁✌️. The first pistils are already there so I'll update soon and the Green Poison XL is a beast too !
Sweet seeds for life 😍
Sweet! I just picked up some Gorilla Cookies. Waiting on my GDP to finish and will prolly be growing either those or the pineapple express I have.
Super Cropping too! Wikked excited to see your outcome!
Can't wait to see what you get from her might help me make up my mind as to which ones to plant first!
😜👽😷

@XpectResistance,Bro I grew a G-13 labs Pineaple express and it was tha dankest skunk I ever grew , I regret that I did not take cuts out of it , anyway the gorilla girl seems more vigorous ( more sativa too ) so I don't want to be in your shoes and choose between those two great strains 😂 🙌😁
