Nugget_head88 After a mixed first attempt I'm hoping for a better result this time. I will be growing Fastbuds Gorilla Cookies Auto and Gorilla Z Auto (Gorilla Zkittlez Auto) I have used a mix of 75% Biobizz Light Mix & 25% perlite. This soil was first fully saturated with Tap water @80ppm which was left to stand for 48hrs with an air stone and then I added 2ml/l of Canna Rhizotonic and PH'd to 6.0. I then planted directly into the fully saturated soil on 01/08/2025. They both sprouted above ground on 04/08/2025 after around 72 hours.

Nugget_head88 Week start 04/08/2025, I don't anticipate that I'll need to water at any point this week, just trying to keep the conditions on point to maintain a leaf vpd of Around 0.6kpa which for me is around 75f 75% humidity. Week end 11/08/2025, Nothing unusual to report, no issues, still haven't watered since initial saturation when planting around 11 days ago, but close to needing it now, conditions have been perfect 95%% of the time and I'm happy with the progress. 😁

Nugget_head88 11/08/2025 Start of week 2. There's a little leaf curl on the Zkitllez and I realised I was running the light a bit too strong so backed off the intensity. 12/08/2025 added 2ml per l of Rhizotonic to my 80ppm tapwater which was stood for 48hrs and aerated, PH'd to 6.0 and watered to full saturation once again with a small amount of run off. Will probably be another 8-10 days until I water again and at that point I might introduce a small amount of Veg nutes depending on how they look but most likely I'll continue with water + Rhizo for at least one more watering. I figure with it being Biobizz light mix + an extra 20% perlite it will only last 3-4 weeks before nutes are needed.

Nugget_head88 Week 4 start 26/08/2025, some purple spots have started appearing on the older fan leaves along with some yellowing on the older fan leaves of the Gorilla cookies, I assume she just drained what was in the soil, from everything I've looked it it's potassium deficiency, I was watering with very low ppm water (80ppm) and only Rhizotonic for a the first 21 days, and I noticed them starting at the back end of week 3, I've since fed low strength veg nutes twice in a row, they have worsened on the older leaves but it seems to have slowed down and doesn't seem to be getting worse as quickly as it was. Other than that I'm happy with the growth overall, they're both a really good size but the gorilla cookies is massive 🤣 well it's certainly the biggest auto I've ever grown at this stage, I'll be using a trellis between soon to try and keep her in check. I'll be swapping out my current humidifier for mars hydro plant humidifier so that will be running from the beginning of week 5.
