Hi everybody, it’s a new week for young ladies and the new report. Two ladies are running fast and looking good. However, the third one is still struggling to survive and with my help l, hopefully she’ll recover. They are growing in the small pots filled with coco coir and I’m promoting root development with rhyzotonic solution and always making sure to mantain the right pH of water. Other than this, nothing special so far and see you in a week😊

Girls are doing nice, a seedling which I thought is lost somehow survived and probably it will do just fine. I have some minor issues with small insects in coco coir and hopefully I’ll get rid of them once the medium gets dried completelly. I’ll repot the plants to 20 litres pota during this weekend😊 Wish you a happy growing!

Hi guys, it’s another week’s update! I’m excited as girls are running fast😀 During the weekend they were repotted to the final 18 litres pots and they love the xxl size! I also decided to top the ladies just above the 4th node and I’ll be doing an LST in few days to make the nice even shape so that I’ll get maximum out of my tent. Unfortunately they’re showing a light Mg and Cal deficiency but a slightly higher ratios of nutrients should solve this. All in all I enjoy the grow a lot and looking forward to the next week 💪

Hello everybody, it’s new week for this ladies and time for a grow update. Gorilla girl are growing nice and they seem to love LST as they tend quite easily. I topped them only once and I now intend to shape them so they will be bushy and even Overall they’re growing fast and producing enormous leaves and so should the plans look after few weeks of flowering. I’m thinking to leave them few days under 18 hours light and switch for flowering, 12/12 afterwards. Hope you enjoy the diary and see you around soon!🙂

Hi guys, it’s been an awesome week as the girls are thriving 🙂 Haven’t had any big issue so far and I love with the progress! I think they’re ready for flowering and decided to switch the light to 12/12 which is a signal for the ladies to get laid and finally show their sex🙂 I put quite a lot of effort in doing LST as a result I’m looking forward for nice bushy plants. Hope you enjoy the diary, hit like and see you around very soon🙂

Hi guys, the week is around and the girls are under 12/12 light for the 7th day. They’ve not showed the sex yet but it’s just a matter of days. You can see a very nice progress and hopefully they will grown big and strong. Hope you all have a nice week and see you around soon😊

The girls are doing just wonderful and they’re starting flowering. It’s only few pistils here and there but all of them are female which is great. I’m being conservative in giving them a very light mixture of nutrients but for now no deficiency whatsoever. The ladies are stretching massively and with the regular LST and defoliation of lower branches and leaves I’m trying to maintain a perfect shape to maximise the growing area. I’m super happy so far and looking forward to following weeks when ladies should develop new flowers. Keep in touch and feel free to press like if you enjoy the diary 😊 Last but not least, wish you a happy growing and see you in the next week!

Hello boyz and girlz, here’s another weekly update of my diary 😊 All the plants started producing flowers and slowly they’ll stop stretching. No issues so far whatsoever, they seem very healthy and happy 😊 I’ve been recently adding booster to promote flowering and hopefully that will work! I’m impressed with all the ladies and looking forward to the following weeks. Last but not least wish you happy and relaxing holidays and see you soon!

Hi guys, nice to be back with a new weekly update. I was absent during holidays, so one week is unfortunately missing but nevertheless. Girls are happy and flowering nicely 😊 I added another LED cob light I used in the past and thought it would benefit in the overall results so fingers crossed 😊 Other than this nothing special going on. No problems so far and I wish the buds will start fattening a lot! Wish you all a happy 2024 and see you around soon!

Hi guys, here comes a new weekly update. Girls are progressing and doing just fine. I’m not super happy on how ladies are turning out, buda are packing however, but won’t be a great yielding run. Gorilla is forming a lot of fox tails already and I already found few bananas on the lower branches which is quite bad. Still hope to have an average run but there are few weeks until the end. Have a good weekend and see you around 😊

Hi guys, I was away for sime time but I’m back. Ladies have been doing great for past two weeks and the buds are packing nicely😊 I’m now starting to love the plants and looking already for harvest. I think two weeks and the journey will come to an end. Thank you for stopping by and have a great week!

The journey came to an end. It was not the easiest strain and bananas started to showing up in the end but we survived. During the trimming I found few seeds, hopefully it’s not that bad but it gives you a bitter taste to the end of a story. On the other side, the buds are just fully packed with resin and smell delicious. Let’s wait for the curing process to end for a final report 🙂

AsNoriucommentedweek 4a year ago
RQS is still the only company which brought hermies to my garden, so you can guess my feelings ;) i still keep even question open after 4 years, still pissed ;)))) BUT theirs RG i grew indoors, outdoors, start out finish in, clones ... anything, great strain, i liked it A LOT !!! You will have very nice smoke, more sweet , no GG4 roughness, but still really great. Btw this strain loved any training too ...

AsNoriucommenteda year ago
@ReinDeer, FB ussually is very tasteful genetics, in every win or pack from them Gorilla Cookies is a must ;)) Chosen FF version for "maybe in future if country legal" collection just few days ago ;)))) But theirs GG i haven't tried. Grew from other houses and photos always. Royal Gorilla will take any pain ... all seeds were very similar by taste and plants by construction, so really stable strain. Plus tasty !
ReinDeer
ReinDeercommenteda year ago
@AsNoriu, sure, I totally get you, I had the same issue in the past but not with RQS, as a final result the all the harvest was full of seeds:))) sh… happens:) I once had Glue gorilla 🦍 from FastBuds and the smoke was exceptional. Really waiting for what comes out 💪

Good luck man, looking good so far. But don't get your hopes up for the smaller plant, i got the same problem with my Royal Gorilla seeds and it seems like they are not stable or so? Out of 5 seeds only 3 did germinate and even tho they did on the same day, one plant was looking small and weird from day 1. Its still growing so much smaller then the other two, it also smells different. It's weird and i hope yours will not be the same. Fingers crossed that you will be fine. All the best for your grow

ReinDeercommenteda year ago
@Wicket, sure! Thanks so much for kind words💚💚
Wicket
Wicketcommenteda year ago
@ReinDeer, Don't give up on her, just wanted to say don't expect her to get as massive as the other two and that its most likely not your fault! Can't wait to see how yours will keep on growing 💪
ReinDeer
ReinDeercommenteda year ago
@Wicket, thank you man, she’s still small and most probably will be by far the weakest but I usually try to keep going no matter what happens. Once I left a similar one in mini pot and she produced a single stem with a baseball sized bud🙂you can check the last week of Queen Sherbet auto from my diary list.. I think I was just lucky🤘💚
