I dont really know why they turned a bit into purple colour. Maybe its coused by tempeture drop ? 24/10/19 - Big up. In next 2 days will arrived a RO filter. Right now I am on EC level 0.4 so that is really not accetable becouse in next 3 days I have to feed them. I would like to make this grow in high quality so any comment is very welcomed. 26/10/19 - Today i finally transplated my ladies into finall pots and also feed them for the first time. Hopefully i didnt stress them to much. Also i fix my water by RO filter.

Hey Alexa, good news : nothing is wrong with your plants ! You have totally normal and healthy plants, just a minor nutrient burn on the tips of the leafs but nothing serious, just feed a tiny bit less and maintain that level. The hairs are normal, and the white things are trichomes , which is where the THC lives meaning that your plant is already starting to put out. It's gonna be a strong one ! Nice wor ! Hope this helps ! 🚀

In this season i harvested 120 of dry and hardly sticky buds! I am also really glad that you suppprted me in this grow so much! I hope that you will like also my second round as i do right now! There is short report! 🙂 flawours Purple - The smoke is super smooth.. i didn't even feel inhalation! I never smoke such a smooth weed before👍 Anyway the taste is something really amazing. After inhalation i can feel smooth and sweet taste which is just like a fruit. After a few seconds i can feel bitter taste on my tongue which coming with that sweet taste of grapefruit! I love this purple beauty! She is really the cherry on the top! Pros: intense high, Happy, giggly alot😄, dry mouth just a slightly(i love the feel). Cons: sleepy ending. Gorilla - The smoke is not much smooth but i still count it. Anyway I have to say the hit that I get was really impressive😄Its that kind of hit which make you sit down and lean on something 😄👍 The taste reminds Diesel. Pros: Stoned alot! Relaxed, Cons: Hardly dry mouth Sticky - The taste of smoke is really spicy and pungent. Well me and my brother actually really like chilli peppers. This lady is also really sticky! Its really as a glue. Pros: relaxed, sleepy Cons: glue: This lady is also really great! She is looking really gorgeous and the taste is yummy! The taste was really hard to recognized. But she taste as a little bit sweet earthy pine i guess😄 For me this is really strange taste but i really like it. She is also really strong which proved my first hit. The high comes really fast and intense! Pros: intense high, hungry, happy Cons: dry mouth

Yo! I found your diary and liked er but didnt leave a comment because I was half asleep, hahah. But here's the comment. I love this grow. As soon as I saw the colors and realized it wasnt a result of the lamp you're using, I was blown away. It looks like a beautiful flower and looks like it would smell like a rose. So cool. Following now, cause I cant wait to see the rest of the show she's going to give you. It's only going to be more impressive as she moves along. Good luck! I'll be kicking around!

Tuffgongcommentedweek 105 years ago
Your plants are beautiful. I am a noob and trying to learn. Judging from the colour of your foliage, I'd say these plants are already receiving less nitrogen than they need. The purple and yellow colours visible indicate that the nitrogen in the leaves is being consumed to fuel new bud growth. Since nitrogen is what growers most commonly try to purge and you appear to have no excess, why do you feel motivated to start so very early? Why do you even think you need it? I realize that reducing chlorophyll just before harvest makes curing easier. But, if you shut down photosynthesis three weeks before finishing, won't that stunt the plants?
Alexa
Alexacommented5 years ago
@Tuffgong,You are absolutely on point you know that? 😁 Right now i am going to feed my plans so i am gonna add some nutries in 🙂 lets aim for 10week atleast then🙂 you are actually right with these nutries. I am using hydro nutries so it shouldn't create that chemical build up how you said. Also i go for buy Flawless finish that can make me sure about it. Thank you alot my friend! Maybe you saved me alot of grams 🙂

Tuffgongcommented5 years ago
@@Alexa, I checked the 8 grow journals where they grew Royal Gorilla indoors, in soil, with LEDs and they had completed harvest. More than half the grows went between 11-13 weeks of flowering! I think your plants are gorgeous and your photography is excellent. I bet those girls could go for a lot longer. The two harvests that had the shortest flowering times (8-9 weeks) were very small. I humbly encourage a little ongoing fertilization -- maybe liquid seaweed or something else organic and mild. You surely won't get a chemical buildup from them and, with a little luck, your girls might still double in size or more. You're doing a great job at everything! I only worry that you're rushing to finish. Hopefully, a guru will stop buy and settle this. I wish you the smooth finish you're looking for. I'll be watching too.

@Tuffgong,Hello, I am Also noob so i don't know if my answer is gonna be helpful. I started to feeding my plants really Lightly in begin of flower stage. In last weeks I feeded them how i could. Now i am 2-3 weeks to harvest but my plants already looking that they are in finall stage. That is why i decited already start to flushing them. I believe that they have alot of nutries right now. Thats why i start to flushing now. I expect 14-16 days to harvest now 🙂 also i am aiming to really smooth taste. if i dont answer to your question, please let me know into chat. 🙂
