Week 10 begins for these amazing Strawberry Gorillas, flowers continue to increase in size, no deficiencies noted, color is good, smells are increasing each day it seems, and pistils beginning to turn orange, around 10-20%. Plants are around 44/50cm in height, thinking the growth has stopped at this point.
****Plan for the week
1. Defoliate as needed
2. Change to TA's Finalpart ? (2-3 weeks out from finishing)
3. Pratice checking trichomes
27-12-2023 (Day 64) - Fertigation 5.92/5.94, EC 1120/1080, 2.5/4L with good run-off. Removed a few fan leaves that were touching the side of the tent.
28-12-2023 (Day 65) - Fertigation 5.85/5.93, EC 1180/1000, 2.5/4L with good run-off.
29-12-2023 (Day 66) - Fertigation 5.86, EC 1180, 2/3.5L with good run-off. Defoliated ~10 leaves on #2.
30-12-2023 (Day 67) - Fertigation 5.80, EC 1140, 2/3.5L with good run-off. Defoliated ~10 leaves on both. Practicing checking trichomes with the microscope camera, 1 in 5 pictures are typically usable. No amber noted, mostly cloudy with some clear.
31-12-2023 (Day 68) - Fertigation 6.03/5.93, EC 1100/1060, 3/3.5L with good run-off. Defoliated ~ 10-20 leaves on both, very sticky! Smells are increasingly pungent; thinking the taste of these of Strawberry Gorillas are going to be amazing. #2 is bulking up nicely.
1-1-2024 (Day 69) - Happy New Year! Fertigation 5.95/5.98, EC 1040/960, 3/3.5L with good run-off. Defoliated a few leaves off both. Trichomes appear mostly cloudy with some clear, will try a few more pictures to end the week.
2-1-2024 (Day 70) - FlashKleen 5.90, 2ml per L, 3/4L with good run-off.
Another week in the books and the Strawberry Gorillas are bulking up and smells very tasty. Plant height remains the same as the beginning of week. The flowers are extremely frosty and sticky! Some leaves have already begun to fade and pistils are ~30% orange. FlashKleen with the plan next week to start FinalPart, with the finish ~ two weeks out.
When should I switch to Terra Aquatic's FinalPart? Recommended 2-3 weeks per manufacturer. These are Strawberry Gorillas grown in Coco at the beginning of week 10. Appreciate the feedback!
It looks to be a PK booster of sorts. 0-6-5 with some added Mg and S.
I would not say this is even required. All these items are in grow/bloom/micro.
It has no N so its just starving the plant out and will make it change colours. In the future i would not buy this again, just use the normal feed at reduced rates. Cheeper does same thing.
Granted you have it now, so just follow the TA feeding guide.

10 days in soilless, 10-20 days in soil with a EC of 2.0, seems like a lot to me. But thats what they suggest. Could always try one plant with it and one without and see what you like more. Given em both a proper cure.
Good Luck!
@NamasteDave, you're doing a great job no doubt!
Growing with coco can do wonders to your plants,
Look for as much information about growing with coco that's my best device 😉✌️🏽
Also If I were you I might consider some more light, 300/400w LEDs will be perfect in a 2x4 tent.
Following up!✌️🏽🌱
@1_Plant_Wonder,
Thank you for your kind words, very much appreciated. As a new grower it is somewhat difficult to know if I am doing things"OK". The plants appear healthy and the smells are nice, the Ladies have been patient with me. Getting closer to the finish line!
Thanks again!
@1_Plant_Wonder,
Thanks! Pleasure to grow these ladies, they produced very well and I learned a ton. The scissor hash and keif I captured during wet trimming was good, looking forward to the cure...
@Qutro,
Thank you. They took to the LST really well and I can see the benefits of this training technique. This is only my second grow, so lots of learning!
Good luck with with your grow my friend! Good job for a second grow!
Great strain choice 🤩
I see you currected the calmag deficiency by adding some...
The supplement you need the most ic coco is calmag, I start mine with 0.5-0.6 ml of calmag and stay there through the entire grow,
I also saturate my coco/perlite mix with the fertilizer solution before I put the seed in it, (making sure there's run off and keep my calmag at 0.6 ml)
Anyway plants seems to snap out of it!
Good luck 🤞🏽🍀
Following!
@BudBoutique,
Thanks for the support. Jiffy Pellets are in the photos and could be the jiffers you are referencing.
Happy to get some seeds to germinate, it seems to be my biggest hurdle.
