Gorilla Cookies Auto High Life Garden

TellerrandGesprengt Tag 10. Officially no longer "sweet," but "ambitious." Seedling mode is over, now serious leaf mass is being negotiated. 3 real leaf pairs, stem is stabilizing, ego is growing. No action from me yet – she can first build roots and gain confidence. Summary: 🌱 small 📈 motivated 🦍 potentially dangerous for the tent If this keeps up, I’ll have to talk to her about LST and responsibility soon.

TellerrandGesprengt Week 3 | Day 16 This week, the Gorilla Cookies are really fun. All the plants look healthy, content, and stable – just how you want to see them at this stage. 🌿 First Impression Rich green, nice leaf tension, nothing's drooping, nothing looks overwhelmed. The plants are standing there like: “Everything's good, let's just grow.” No visible stress, no weird spots, no drama leaves. 📐 Growth & Structure The growth is compact, not stretched, not stunted. The internodes are pleasantly short, and the side branches are slowly starting to show up. The main stem is still leading, but not dominant – perfect for intervention now. Honestly: The timing for LST couldn't be better. The stems are still soft, the plant strong enough, and mentally 😄 absolutely ready. 🍃 Leaves Large, healthy fan leaves – real solar panels. The leaves are doing exactly what they should: collecting energy. 🌡️ Stress Check No feeling of over- or under-fertilization No heat or light stress No injuries The plants look calm and confident. Exactly what you want in an autoflower. 🧠 Autoflower Feeling For Day 16, they're right on track, maybe even slightly ahead. Not because of size, but because of structure – and that will determine the yield later. You can tell: 👉 Good conditions 👉 Clean watering rhythm 👉 No unnecessary fiddling

TellerrandGesprengt Week 3 – Vegetative Phase (Day 23, Auto) 🌱 The autoflowering plants are about 16 cm tall and are growing compactly in 10-liter final pots. The light cycle is set to 18/6, with the lamp distance at about 45 cm. The daytime temperature is around 26 °C with approximately 65% humidity. The pH level is stable at 6.4. This week, LST was applied early to bend the main stem and open up the side branches. The plants are responding very well and showing no signs of stress. The canopy is becoming flatter and more even, which is ideal for autos. A slight lightening is visible on the lower leaves, indicating a mild Mg/N deficiency. The new growth is healthy and vigorous. The goal for week 4 is to fine-tune the LST, stabilize nutrient supply, and optimally prepare the plants for pre-flowering. 🌿

TellerrandGesprengt 🌿 Weekly Report – Week 4 Vegetative Phase Strain: Gorilla Cookies Auto – Fast Buds Medium: Biobizz Light-Mix Pot Size: 10 liters Light: Spider Farmer SF-2000 LED (200 W) Light Cycle: 18/6 Lamp Distance: approx. 45 cm Tent: 120 × 60 cm Vegetative Week: 4 Plant Height: approx. 22 cm 🌱 Growth & Plant Structure In the fourth week of vegetative growth, the plants have noticeably increased in volume. The growth is compact and bushy, with short internodes and several strong side branches. Thanks to the early topping in week 2 and the consistently applied LST in weeks 2–3, all plants have been successfully spread out. The shoot tips are mostly at the same height, which already creates a very even canopy. This growth pattern is ideal for autos under 200 W LED, as it allows for as many equal bud sites as possible to be positioned directly in the optimal light range later on. 🍃 Leaf Appearance & Vitality The leaf color is predominantly healthy green. Slight lightening on a few lower leaves is age-related and not critical at this stage. New shoots appear vigorous, upright, and tense – a good sign of stable roots and effective nutrient management. There are no signs of over-fertilization, heat stress, or training stress visible. Leaf position and shape indicate a balanced relationship between light intensity, watering, and nutrient supply. 🧠 Training & Care Active training was consciously reduced this week. LST only minimally adjusted to expose individual shoots No further topping or heavy bending Light defoliation in the lower area to improve air circulation and direct energy to the upper shoots The plants are responding calmly and stress-free to the measures – an important point with autoflowers, as the time windows are limited. 🌡️ Climate & Environmental Conditions Day Temperature: approx. 26 °C Humidity: ~60 % pH Value: 6.4 The climate is stable and within the optimal range for the late vegetative phase. The humidity still supports vegetative growth but should be gradually lowered in the coming days to allow for a clean transition into pre-flowering. 💧 Watering & Substrate Watering is moderate and even. The substrate can dry out slightly between watering sessions, which further promotes root development. The 10-liter pots are well-rooted, without waterlogging or compaction. 👃 Odor Development The smell is currently still weak, but already perceptibly typical for the strain. Initial sweet-earthy notes indicate that the plants are hormonally transitioning towards pre-flowering.
