09/08: Will water both again today, the pistils are starting to ripen on the Grapefruit, it's EXTREMELY resiny but the buds are feeling nice and weighty. Certain the next grow will be better and deffo gonna invest in a dehumidifer next time, SCROG net and LST since I only have Sativa-dominant genetics left. I'm not sure what to do about these very late bottom node flowers, I might have to cut the top and then let the bottom finish? idk if you have advice pls let me know, I'm not stressed since it's my first proper grow but would like to learn for future. 13/08: 1st cut is done on the Grapefruit, I'll supply a review and smoke report once the second cut is finished. The trichs were 90% milky/cloudy and about 10% amber, really don't care bout the "amber trich" myth since that's for more longer flowering Hazes and Sativa strains and NOT common on Hybrids. The pistils on the buds harvested were about 50-70% orange, was somewhat forced to do a first cut cuz the GGXL is finishing up and I can't be without space anymore. Hopefully drying is quick, no batteries so est 30g wet (maybe 40-50?) so dunno about dry. Very FIRST strain and grow taken to semi-harvest, happy with the strain and genetics but definitely not something I'll grow again in the future, maybe very far into the future since electric is expensive... I'd say it's a 7/10, not great, not bad. Had some fuckups in the beginning, lack of nutes and soil etc that didn't help but overall an excellent strain for noobs, very forgiving with nutes, early stages, over/underwatering and so forth. Excited to see when the GG XL is finished, she's TALL and massive so hopefully she'll yield a lot more once done. 19/08: GG XL coming into start of week 10, end of 9. Buds are getting nice, very tall and busy, massive leaves. Moved the light up a bit further since she's looking a bit unhappy.

Grow Questions

delta_420started grow question a year ago
Is there anyway I can avoid this besides keeping it wet and pressed down until stronger roots form? I'm worried about the root structure and stress if I have to keep pressing it into the soil...

could try watering little amounts more often. If the whole plug is lifting out it seems like it is getting to dry before you water. Good Luck!

White spots/lesions growing on stem base but not on leaves or anywhere else? This started within the last 1-3 days. The stem "splitting" on the skin was present since it was sagging and bounced back fine. Worried this is mold/infection from soil. Packed more soil onto the top (!)

Looked at the leaves and did some research, either this is just a normal process where the plant tries to grow extra roots or it's mildew. Either way I think I'll dial down from 2 cups of water in the morning to just 1 once the soil has dried out today/tomorrow. Over/underwatering has possibly led to stem sagging + slow growth so next time I'm investing in Autopots or watering less often + small amounts...

Wow the girls are biiig! Good work! I love the pistil hairs! They are gonna be nice, fat and tasty! I'd love to see how the gorilla girl plays out, because i am thinking about growing some “sweet seeds"-beans next. 🇪🇦

@delta_420, Haha can relate to the little tracking laziness and the leap of faith for the beginning. But for me it turned out as such a fun and rewarding hobby (and nerve wrecking from time to time), i really love to grow, both as a grower and to grow some tasty buds. 😊 And i love to learn from the other growers here, so thank you very much for sharing! Good luck for a strong finish on this grow! Nothing beats the first smoke of your own homegrown buds!

@Herbie101, thanks! First time I've done a "proper" grow so to speak for med + personal use. Took a very expensive leap of faith but it's paying off. I've been a little bit lazy tracking metrics and temps etc since the battery died in my hygrometer but got it fixed. The GG XL is packing on the pistils and size too, outgrowing the Grapefruit. They both took to my n00b growing mistakes super well, lack of soil and nutes, over/underwatering but bounced back really well. I've started giving them both two extra sets of Acti-Vera and Bio-Bloom for flower and to get rid of the leaf miners but as she gets frosty leaves and the resin packs on pests etc don't survive long :) Out of curiousity, rubbing the leaves has this super sweet fruity smell, gg xl has this amazing earthy, gluey typical gorilla glue smell which is yum. Can't wait for harvest, the leaves on the GG XL are bigger than my hand, it's awesome seeing the indica-leaning pheno! :)
