Sweet Muscle 💪🍬

Purrple_Haze Double Trouble Begins 🦍🍬 | Gorilla Zkittlez – Week 1 The first week with my two Gorilla Zkittlez is in the books, and so far everything looks solid. Both seedlings have established well and are settling into their new environment without any major issues. 🌱 As expected, there’s already a small difference in development — one of them is clearly a bit ahead, showing slightly faster growth and more confidence early on. The second one is taking things a little slower, but nothing that raises concern at this stage. They both look healthy, with clean leaf color and steady progress. I’ll keep a close eye on how the height difference develops over the coming days. If the gap becomes more noticeable, I’m already considering using a SCROG later on to even things out and make the most of the space. That way, both plants can contribute equally and stay nicely level under the light. 🌿🕸️ For now, it’s all about letting them find their rhythm, build roots, and grow at their own pace. Week one is always about patience — and so far, Gorilla Zkittlez is off to a calm and promising start. Looking forward to seeing how their structure and vigor develop next. ✨

Purrple_Haze Two Paths, One Tent 🦍🍬 Week 2 with my Gorilla Zkittlez brings two very different stories under the same roof. One plant is clearly in beast mode already — strong growth, healthy structure, and a confident push upwards. Exactly what you hope to see at this stage. 💪🌿 The second one, however, is taking a very different route. She’s looking a bit crippled and hesitant, with noticeably slower growth and less enthusiasm overall. Not ideal — but for now, she stays. Given that my Mimosa run already had a rough germination rate, I’ve decided to let her live and see if she finds her rhythm later on. Sometimes they surprise you. 🌱✨ Environment-wise, things are dialed in nicely: 🔸 VPD holding steady around 1.1, which seems to suit the healthy plant very well 🔸 Fed with S&R Organics 5-in-1, a complete organic fertilizer bringing nutrients, microorganisms, and mycorrhiza in one go No major interventions planned for now — I’ll keep conditions stable and let them show me what they’re capable of. If the growth difference becomes more pronounced, I can still adapt later with training or canopy management. For now, it’s a classic case of same genetics, different personalities. Let’s see how Week 3 treats them. 🍃

Purrple_Haze Two Paths, One Strain 🦍🍬 This update is about both Gorilla Zkittlez plants from MSNL Seeds, and it’s a great example of how differently genetics can express themselves — even under identical conditions. The first plant continues to develop exactly the way I was hoping for. She reacted very well to the applied Low Stress Training and is now growing nice and bushy, spreading out evenly and building a strong, promising structure. The canopy is opening up beautifully, light penetration is improving day by day, and she shows zero signs of stress. 🌿✨ If she keeps this pace, she’s going to turn into a real eye-catcher later in flower. The second Gorilla Zkittlez, however, is taking a very different route. She’s still very small at around 7 cm, and her growth is noticeably slower. That said — she is growing. No decline, no worsening symptoms, just a plant that clearly wants to move at her own pace. Because of that, I’ve decided to let her live and see where she takes things. Sometimes patience is rewarded in unexpected ways, and as long as there’s forward movement, she deserves the chance. 🌱💚 Both plants are being treated exactly the same, sharing the same environment and nutrition. Feeding remains simple and consistent: 🌱 Feeding & Care 🔸 Green Power 5-in-1 by S&R Organics 🔸 Dechlorinated tap water 🔸 VPD: 1.1 This balanced organic approach continues to provide a stable foundation, allowing each plant to express herself naturally — whether fast and vigorous or slow and cautious. In the end, this grow is already proving to be a learning experience. Two plants, same strain, same setup — yet completely different growth patterns. And honestly, that’s part of what makes growing so fascinating. I’m curious to see how both Gorilla Zkittlez will develop over the coming weeks, each in her own way. 🦍🍬🌿

Purrple_Haze 💪🌈 Gorilla Zkittlez – Strength Reveals Itself This past week turned out to be a really satisfying one for my two Gorilla Zkittlez, especially because expectations were quietly flipped on their head. The smaller plant, which had been lagging behind for quite a while, suddenly decided to show some character. Instead of stretching awkwardly, she focused on building a surprisingly thick, sturdy stem, and her overall posture has become much more confident. She may still be compact, but she’s no longer fragile — quite the opposite. A real little fighter. 💪🌱 The larger Gorilla Zkittlez continues to grow just as I’d hoped: healthy, balanced, and increasingly bushy thanks to the training. Both plants are now showing a deep, saturated green leaf color, which I absolutely love to see — clear signs that they’re comfortable, fed well, and happy in their environment. 🌿 Plant Development Highlights 🔸 Small plant: noticeable stem thickening and improved structure 🔸 Bigger plant: strong lateral growth and bushy form 🔸 Both: beautiful, rich green foliage with no signs of stress 🔸 Overall vibe: healthy, calm, and very promising I’m especially happy with how evenly they’re responding to the conditions despite their different sizes. The idea of SCROG later on still feels like a good option if the height difference persists — but for now, I’m just enjoying watching them settle in and gain strength day by day. 🌱 Feeding & Environment 🔸 GreenPower 5-in-1 fertilizer by S&R Organics 🔸 Includes microorganisms & mycorrhiza 🔸 VPD steady at ~1.1 🔸 Consistent environment, no fluctuations All in all, this week reinforced something I love about growing: plants don’t always follow our expectations — and sometimes the quiet ones surprise you the most. Both Gorilla Zkittlez are looking fantastic, and I’m genuinely excited to see how their structure and character continue to develop from here. 🌈✨

Purrple_Haze 🦍🍬 First Bloom Signals This week marks a very exciting milestone for my two Gorilla Zkittlez — both have officially entered their first week of flowering, and the change in energy is already clearly noticeable. Growth remains strong, structure is developing beautifully, and the first signs of true flower formation are now unmistakable. 🌸✨ What really surprised me is how intense the aroma already is. Even at this early stage of bloom, the tent is filling with a rich, sweet and slightly earthy scent that hints at what’s to come. If this is just the beginning, things are going to get very interesting over the next weeks. 🍬🔥 Both plants are growing nicely now, each in her own way, but overall well balanced and healthy. The previously smaller plant continues to build strength and confidence, while the larger one maintains her bushy, structured form. Together, they’re shaping a very promising canopy. Because I’m preparing for more space and improved light distribution, I’ve already ordered a second lamp, along with a larger tent, to fully support their upcoming bloom phase. The light hasn’t arrived yet, but once it does, it should help push flower development and overall performance even further. 🌞💡 🌱 Feeding & Environment 🔸 Green Power 5-in-1 by S&R Organics 🔸 Supplemental nitrogen 🔸 Cal-Mag addition 🔸 Extra phosphorus & potassium 🔸 Dechlorinated tap water 🔸 VPD stable at 1.1 The same proven feeding scheme as last week continues to deliver great results, supporting both vegetative momentum and the smooth transition into bloom. All signs point toward a very exciting flowering phase ahead. Healthy plants, strong aroma, and a stable environment — exactly the foundation I was hoping for. Let’s see how Gorilla Zkittlez unfolds from here. 🌿✨

Purrple_Haze 🦍🍬 Recovery & Renewed Momentum Both Gorilla Zkittlez have now reached their second week of flowering, and overall this week brought solid progress, healthy development, and an important learning moment. Structurally, both plants continue to build beautifully, maintaining strong vigor and a balanced canopy, with early flower sites becoming more defined by the day. 🌸✨ However, mid-week they showed a temporary slowdown in growth, lasting around three days. The cause became clear quickly: I had used a nutrient solution that had been standing for four days, instead of discarding it. The slightly strong smell already hinted that it was no longer ideal, and it appears this stressed the root zone, leading to a short pause in growth and slightly drooping leaves. 🌿⚠️ Fortunately, the solution was straightforward. After flushing the system with fresh, clean nutrient solution, the plants responded very positively. Since then, they have regained their upright posture, improved leaf tension, and overall lively appearance. Growth has resumed, and their energy level is clearly back where it should be. A great reminder of just how important fresh nutrient solutions and root-zone health truly are. 💧🌱 Now that conditions are corrected, both plants are once again actively stretching, stacking flower sites, and building structure. Their canopy remains well-balanced, and the early bloom development looks very promising. The aroma is also beginning to intensify — sweet, fruity, and slightly earthy, giving a preview of what’s to come. 🍬🔥 Overall, despite this small setback, the week ends on a very positive note. The plants have shown strong resilience, fast recovery, and excellent adaptability — all signs of healthy genetics and good environmental control. 🌱 Feeding & Environment 🔸 Green Power 5-in-1 by S&R Organics 🔸 Supplemental nitrogen 🔸 Cal-Mag 🔸 Extra phosphorus & potassium 🔸 Freshly mixed, dechlorinated tap water 🔸 VPD stable at 1.1 With the root zone stabilized and fresh nutrients in place, the foundation is once again perfectly set for strong flower development in the coming weeks. Everything is back on track, and expectations for this run remain very high. 🌿✨

Purrple_Haze 🦍🍬 Back on Track Week 7 with my Auto Gorilla Zkittlez from MSNL Seeds, and I’m really happy with how both plants have stabilized over the past days. After a slightly bumpy phase last week, they have clearly recovered, and it shows in every aspect of their growth. The leaves are no longer drooping, posture is upright again, and overall vitality has returned. Sometimes it really is about giving them a bit of time and letting them rebalance — and that patience paid off here. Both plants now look calm, healthy, and confident as they continue through early bloom. 🌿✨ Flower development is progressing nicely, with buds slowly thickening and the aroma becoming more pronounced day by day. That sweet, fruity Gorilla Zkittlez scent is now clearly noticeable when opening the tent, promising some very enjoyable terpenes later on. 🍬🔥 Structurally, they’re holding their shape well, and the canopy is evening out more than I expected, especially considering their earlier differences in growth. It’s great to see how they’re now growing more in sync, creating a balanced overall impression. 🌱 Current Status 🔸 Plants fully recovered and stable 🔸 Leaves upright again, no drooping 🔸 pH: 6.2 🔸 VPD: 1.1 All in all, this week was a very reassuring one. The plants have clearly found their rhythm again, and from here on out it’s about maintaining consistency and letting them do what they do best. Auto Gorilla Zkittlez is shaping up beautifully, and I’m excited to see how the coming weeks will transform her even further. 🌿🍬✨

Purrple_Haze 🦍🍬 Almost There We’re entering the second to last week of flowering, and my two Gorilla Zkittlez are really showing what they’re made of. 🌸✨ Both plants have developed beautifully over the past days. The buds are swelling noticeably now, stacking tighter and gaining that dense, resinous look you hope for at this stage. The trichome coverage is increasing daily, and they’re starting to glisten properly under the light. What stands out the most right now is the aroma. Opening the tent releases a strong, sweet, fruity scent with that typical Gorilla depth underneath — rich, slightly creamy, and very present. It’s one of those smells that instantly makes you stop for a second and just appreciate the moment. 🍬🔥 Structurally, they’re both holding up very well. The branches are stable, the flowers are building weight, and the overall canopy looks balanced and healthy. Their leaf color remains a beautiful, full green, and they appear calm and vigorous — exactly what you want heading into the final stretch. Now it’s mostly about maintaining consistency, watching the trichomes closely, and letting them finish strong. The end is near, and if they continue like this, I’m expecting a very satisfying harvest. The finish line is in sight — and they’re making it look easy. 🌿✨

Purrple_Haze 🦍🍬 The Final Stretch My two Gorilla Zkittlez from MSNL Seeds are now entering the final two weeks before harvest, and the plants are really showing their full character at this stage. If everything continues as expected, I believe they should be ready in roughly 10–14 days. Over the past days there hasn’t been much change structurally — which is exactly what you want this late in flower. The buds are dense, resin production is steadily increasing, and the plants have reached that calm, mature stage where everything simply ripens day by day. ✨ I included a few macro shots this time, because the details are just too nice not to capture. The trichomes are building beautifully and the flowers look properly frosty already. One thing I especially enjoy visually is the dark coloration developing on one of the plants. Some of the leaves are turning almost black, which contrasts beautifully with the bright pistils and the shimmering resin. It gives the plant a really striking appearance and makes this stage of the grow particularly satisfying to watch. 🌑🌸 The aroma has also intensified noticeably. Opening the tent now releases a rich, sweet and fruity scent, layered with that classic Gorilla depth underneath. Definitely one of those strains where the smell alone tells you something good is coming. At this point there’s not much left to do except stay consistent and watch the trichomes. The finish line is getting closer, and both plants look absolutely beautiful heading into the final days. ✨ Grow Stats & Current Details: 🔸 Medium: BioBizz Light Mix 🔸 Feeding: Green Power 5-in-1 by S&R Organics + CalMag + supplemental NPK where needed 🔸 pH range: 6.2 🔸 VPD during bloom: ~1.1 🔸 Stage: Final two weeks before harvest 🔸 Estimated harvest window: 10–14 days

Purrple_Haze 🦍🍬 Final Report And just like that, this run with my Gorilla Zkittlez from MSNL Seeds comes to an end — and overall, I’m really happy with how everything turned out. 🌿✨ Both plants had their own journey, showing different growth patterns early on, but in the end they both developed into beautiful flowering plants with strong aroma and solid structure. The first plant has now been fully harvested, dried, and trimmed, yielding 48 grams dry, which I’m very satisfied with. The buds came out dense, nicely frosted, and carry that classic sweet, fruity Gorilla Zkittlez profile that filled the tent throughout late flower. 🍬🔥 The second plant — the untopped one — is currently still drying. I’m very curious to see how she will compare in both yield and structure once finished. As soon as she’s ready, I’ll follow up with pictures and final numbers. Looking back, this grow was very enjoyable. From early differences in development to a strong and aromatic flowering phase, both plants delivered in their own way. It’s always interesting to see how different approaches — like topping vs. no topping — play out within the same run. ✨ Final Stats & Grow Details: 🔸 Strain: Gorilla Zkittlez – MSNL Seeds 🔸 Plants: 2 (topped & untopped) 🔸 Medium: BioBizz Light Mix 🔸 Feeding: S&R Organics 5-in-1 + CalMag + supplemental nutrients 🔸 pH range: ~6.2 🔸 VPD during bloom: ~1.1 🔸 Yield (Plant 1): 48g dry 🔸 Plant 2: currently drying
