Had potassium burn from the compost tea I made so I flushed the system the auto parts system and just put freshwater in there. This seemed to clear up the issue, but growth seems standard for some reason. I am not sure if topping it too early has caused this. We are back on regular nutrition schedule now everything is Biobizz nutrients.

We’ve reached the end of our Grow with the Gorill Glue Auto. Overall, I made two mistakes. The first was stress training it at the beginning of flowering, which didn’t allow enough time for proper recovery. The second mistake was overfeeding it with a flowering tea, which caused the leaves to turn a dark black/brown instead of the healthy dark green they should have been. That said, I’m very happy with this grow. I think it’s a solid first attempt at an auto, especially since I’m more experienced with photoperiod plants. Autos are definitely a different challenge—they’re much bushier and have a more intense growth spurt during vegetation. One key takeaway is to keep your grow environment in check, as the dense bushiness of this plant can make it more prone to mould. She’s currently curing, and I’ll share pictures along with the final dried weight soon.
