DAY 12 ; Defoliatioin of the plants for the last time and stretching a net to support the colas.
A lot of difference in heights between the plants. Plant # 2 looks like a Sativa so fast she grows and with her long internodes. She is the highest plant of my crop.
DAY 16 : Because of the net, I can no longer photograph the plants in front profile, and that is why I now take photos from the top.
Still no liquid nutrients, only root stimulator. Vertafort and Biotabs do the job fine (for quantities see week 5).
Plants are very healthy. No signs of shortages, no problems with too much nutrition.
Royal Gorilla #1 = 82 cm ; 5 colas
Royal Gorilla #2 = 109 cm ; 6 colas
Royal Gorilla #3 = 60 cm ; 6 colas
Looking great thus far. I am currently growing 2 of these Royal ๐ Gorillaโs ๐ฆ and they are packing some serious buds on 3 weeks into flower. How long are you going to Veg before putting them into flower?
@MagicMikesMeds, Probably I will also go for 7 week veg. I've topped them 3 times. Hopefully that will keep them from too much stretching. But I was thinking it would be better if I had topped them only 2 times to get only 36 tops/600 watt (9 plants x4 branches) instead of 72 (9plants x 8 branches). Maybe I have to remove some branches if my canopy will be too dense.... Let's see....
@Oyziphar, yeah I play around with Veg times every round depending on how well each of my strains have bulked up. This round was a 7 week Veg and I am hoping I did not over Veg as the plants ๐ฑ are still stretching madly
@MagicMikesMeds, Thx ! Previous time I put them in flowering on DAY 42 in 12 liter containers. This time I potted them in 25 liter containers, Probably I'll give them an extra week depending how they develop.
I love logging into this website and seeing some decent little saplings growing starting their amazing journey towards becoming fat bud yielding monsters. Best wishes on this grow my friend and I'm excited to see how everything progresses. Good luck!
