4/20 has arrived! Seedsman reached out to me to be apart of their 420 grow off! Thank you SEEDSMAN! They sent me a 5 pack of Gorilla gas F1 Fast seeds and I just put 4 in some wet paper towels. Soon they will be moved to their pots where they will stay for the remainder of the grow. I am really excited about this strain to see what characteristics it will show with all 4 plants growing in the tent. Stay tuned. I will be posting weekly picture and video updates as well as a detailed summary of the week.
The 3 that are in the 5 gallon pots are the gorilla gas seeds and the one in the litte pot is the blueberry pie f1 fast and another grow off im involved in with seedsman. All of them are off to a great start in seedling starter mix. Just transplanted the gorilla gas seeds into their 5 gallon pots where they will remain for the rest of the grow. Right now I'm just feeding them 6.5.ph water. The coco I'm using is preamended with nutrients to last a couple weeks. Can't wait to watch these girls grow! I'm going to try to get a time lapse video of the grow if I can get my camera working right.
Week 2 of the gorilla gas and I started feedling a light mixture of base nutrients. All 3 plants are growing nearly identical so it should be fun to see the differences each plant shows throughout the grow. I have the light set to a out 60% right now at 3 feet aboulve the canopy. Its been a little tough to keep the humidity up so I'm running a humidifier outside the tent and having the carbon filter pull the humidity through the bottom vent into the tent. I will post a timelapse video soon when it's done recording.
Girls are really starting to to take off now. Ramping up the nutrients slightly and started defoliation. It's interesting to see the phenotypes coming out. 3 plants. One short and bushy, one in between and one tall and lanky. Excited to watch the rest of the grow and how they end up. Off to a really good start. Tons of side growth. Completely topped 2 of them and fimmed the last one to see what happens. Currently trying to figure out the timelapse on my camera it only wants to save in few second long clips. I'll get it. I posted them anyway they are kinda neat.
All 3 plants are growing differently bit very healthy. Not sure why one wants to stretch like crazy while the other 2 are reminding short bushy like plants. Hopefully they start reaching for the light and branch out before I flip to 12/12. I'm not sure how long I'm gonna veg these for but I'd like to have a good canopy before I do. We'll see what happens. For now everyone is getting 4ml per gallon on nutes so I don't over do it. A little goes a long way with advanced nutrients.
One more week of veg then flipping the lights to 12/12. I've been so busy with work and the outside garden that I haven't had much time to maintain these plants but they are doing very well considering. I've topped all plants and pulled branches down to spread canopy. A lot of defoliation has been needed along the way and I've done some lst and hst also. Once I flip the lights they should fill the tent up nicely. Being conservative with the nutrients. I will bump up a little bit once they are in flower.
First week of flower and the girls seem to be doing really well. I haven't been in the tent this much this grow as I've been extremely busy with work and the outdoor garden. I'm feeding flowering nutrients now and I'm starting to get heavier on the feedings. I wish I could trellis but I didn't have the time and the small plant would make it a little difficult. I will defoliate as much as possible for light penetration and hope for sole big buds. All in all this grow is going very well so far. Excited to see the difference in bud shape between the 3 plants of this strain.
Week 2 of flower is in the books and all 3 girls are looking extremely healthy. Perfect time to start packing on the weight. There are tons if bud sites that will get tons of light due to all the defoliation I've done. I've never defiliated plants this much before and I'm curious to see the difference in bud production below the canopy level. I love trying new things and experimenting with these plants. Always coming up with new ideas on how to do things and making things easier along the way. Can't wait to see how much I'll get off all 3 and see the difference in phenotypes.
These three plants are showing wildly different phenotypes. All 3 have different smells, different bud structure and overall size. They are all starting to put on a good amount of weight. A lot of resin is starting to appear and more trichomes popping up daily. These girls are very thirsty at the moment drinking up to almost 2 gallons every 2 days. Can't wait to see the end result. Almost there!
So week 4 is in the books. I'm really happy with how everything has been going. I've been busy and stressed these last few weeks so to see how good these girls are doing puts a smile on my face. The terpenes are strong now and everything is starting to fatten up. Won't be too long now. Follow my Instagram and YouTube for more pictures and videos! I would appreciate the support!
Week 5 of the flowering for the gorilla gas has finished up. They are definitely smelling really nice and stacking like crazy. All different smells and sizes. The tall one is fading and could probly use some more nutrients but I'm not going to push a lot now. Just coasting till the end. 3 more weeks. Everything is looking really good for the most part.
Week 6 for the gorilla gas has finished up. These girls are showing their phenotypes and it's awesome. 3 different plants. One tall and lanky, one in the middle and one runt. All smell amazing. Finished up giving it bulk of the nutrients now it's a downward slope from here. Gradually decreasing every day till flush. Looking forward to the harvest!!!
End of week 7 of flower has come. All 3 plants are doing great. The one tall one has gotten so big it fell over and I had to tie up a bunch of colas. They all smell really good but each one has a slightly different scent to it. The runt is small but has a lot of colas. The one in between I think has the best structure out of the bunch. Almost harvest time.
Week 8 is complete for the gorilla gas. All 3 plants are finishing up and have started their flushing phase with the advanced nutrients flawless finish. Each plant has its own characteristics and aromas which is pretty neat. I should have a nice size harvest of this strain. The skunk and piney smell isn't my favorite aroma but it is pungent that's for sure. If your looking to grow a plant that's inconspicuous then this isn't the one for you. Very easy to grow plant overall just think it could have used a little more nutrients during the flower stage but that's what learnings all about. Happy with the grow overall. Thanks for following!!
Week 9 of flower and these girls are almost ready to be harvested. They all smell amazing and are extremely sticky and resinous. Should get a decent size harvest of this strain I'm excited to trim these plants up and put them in their curing jars.
Week 10 is in the books for the gorilla gas and the tent is filled with a skunky piney aroma. Very strong. All the plants have filled out tremendously and now I'm just waiting for the trichomes to turn a little amber. Once we have about 10% I'll chop them down. Thinking about doing a 48 hour dark period also before the chop. Thanks for following along!
