Gorillanonymous mixed 20L of Canna Bio Terra Plus soil, with 1.5L of Westland perlite and 0.5L of Westland vermiculite. I then added 5tsp of Vitax Q4 Mycorrhizal Fungi powder into the mix. After combining the mixture thoroughly and returning to the 20L fabric pot, I dig a 1cm hole into the soil and drop the seed in, making sure the indented end faces upwards. During the veg stage, (the first month or so) I will not fertilise the plants at all, as the soil comes preloaded. However I will do the following routine EVERY time I water her, without fail, until flowering. I add these supplements to 1L - 1.5L of water, every 4-5 days, in this order - Adjust to 23°C Dechlorinate Add 1ml per litre Biobizz Algamic Add 1ml per litre Dutch Pro Multi Total pH down to 6.1 - 6.4 I added 1 litre to the freshly planted seed, spread around the pot to avoid dehydration of the soil and nasty hydrophobic conditions forming. Update : She sprouted after 5 days, with two waterings. An easy germination. I gave her another light watering when she popped (only 250ml as the pot is still quite heavy) I'm expecting great things from this award winning strain 💪🏼It's going to be topped and HST'd, and I'm confident she can take it.

Gorillanonymous Day 6 - I gave her a 250ml of treated water (see germination page for details) as the pot is still heavy. I won't start watering heavily until the pot starts feeling a bit lighter.

Gorillanonymous Day 10 - She is developing very fast. Usually the plant is ready for the first topping around day 14, so the fact she is ready on day 10 is a good sign that she'll be vigorous. I wait for the second node to form, and cut the main stem. This leaves 4 baby shoots, which will now all grow with equal vigour. I'll train them out horizontally and top again in a week or so. See pics for details. I gave her another 300ml-350ml of treated water (see germination page for details), directly into the main stem, and spread around the pot. The pot still feels quite heavy. I'm going to allow it to dry out a bit before watering heavily, as I want the roots to spread out as much as possible. This will be achieved as the pot dries and the roots seek out pockets of moisture. She looks super healthy!

Gorillanonymous Day 16 - She's growing fast, ready for another topping. Looking super healthy. I gave her 500ml of treated water (see germination page for details). Half directly into the base of the plant, the rest spread around the pot evenly. I have high hopes for this one!

Gorillanonymous Day 23 - Annoyingly, one of the main shoots snapped off after I pegged it down. It was fine when I left it, but as it is such a vigorous grower, it snapped off under the pressure of its own growth. All is not lost, as I will top it 4 times instead of my usual 3, to make up for the lost buds. This plant appears to be a BEAST so I think she can take it no problem. I should end up with 24 glorious main colas and a load of b-grade for the hash making pile! I gave her around 2 litres of treated water (see germ page for details). Around 500ml directly into the base of the plant, and the rest spread around the pot. It's important during this late vegging stage to water into the edges of the pot as much as possible, and encourage maximal root spread. Big roots = big fruits She's starting to smell earthy! Day 28 - she doesn't need any water today. The pot is still heavy. She's growing fast, so I'm confident I can top her one more time. I've pegged down 4 of the arms into a circle shape around the edge, and tied two arms together pointing vertically straight up. It should look stunning in a couple of weeks!

Gorillanonymous Day 30 - Early flowering is upon us! She is stretching like crazy, so I'm going to have to tie down the shoots aggressively, and try to get this canopy as flat as possible. Take a look at the pictures to see how extreme it was! As soon as I see signs of flowering (white hairs), I start feeding. I'll gradually increase the quantity of feed she receives as time goes on, but to start I'll give her this - Dechlorinate Adjust temperature to 23° c 1ml /L of Biobizz Alg-a-mic 1ml /L of Dutch Pro Multi Total 0.25ml/L Cal mag 4ml/L of Dutchpro A-B Autoflower Bloom 2ml/L of Dutchpro Explode (500-600ppm) Ph to 6.1 - 6.4 I gave her 5L of this. 1L straight into the base of the plant, and the rest spread around. I also water deep into the edges of the pot to maximize root spread. I have a feeling this plant is going to be a monster. It's incredibly vigorous! Happy happy days! 🌱🌱🌱💪🏼
