Week 2 - The ladies were transplanted into pots. She has some brown spots on her leaves. I think it is from a lack of nutrients so I have been spritzing her with a touch of nutrients.
Week 4 - My little lady is growing well but I think there is some nitrogen deficiency. I was struggling with too much nitrogen in my previous grows and narrowed it down to the soil mixture. This time I left out many of the amendments in my soil mixture and now I am getting yellowing lower leaves. I am trying to slowly add amall amounts of nutrients and see what happens. She has been moved into a bigger pot and into the tent with LED lights. She has also been FIMmed.
Week 5 - Despite my efforts to control the nutrient issues, she is getting lighter in colour; looking a little yellow. 😡 She is still growing a little bit though. I wonder how well she would grow if the nutrient balance was perfect. I will continue to make small adjustments and hope for a happy medium.
Week 6 - I think that the deficiency is improving but there are still some yellow spots on the lower leaves. I am trying to add and tweek nutrients slowly so that I don't end up with a nutrient toxicity. She is growing and seems to be healthy otherwise.
Week 7 - She seems to be growing well and has been thirsty! I transplanted her into a 7 gallon pot and gave her 3 liters of RO with some Rhino Skin nutes.
Week 8 - She seems to be doing okay and doesn't have any obvious nutrient issues. She is filling out nicely and seems to have responded well to FIMming. So far she is looking the best out of the 4 plants I am growing right now. 😋
Day 56 - She is looking good and growing well. I am only giving her 3 liters of straight RO water to get her ready for taking clones at the end of the week.
Day 63 - She is still growing well and drinking lots. I took 4 clones from her after these photos were taken. I haven't taken clones before so I hope to have some luck. I gave her # liters of RO and some nutrients to help her recover.
Day 66 - She seems to be recovering well from the removal of clones. She continues to grow up and outward and she is drinking alot. I gave her 3 liters of RO and some nutrients. I plan to see if I have any luck with the clones before I out her into flower.
Day 69 - I took some large fan leaves off as they were blocking some of the ligt penetration. She got 4 liters of RO as she is still drinking alot.
Day 73 - She's getting big and recovered well from clone and fan leaf removal. I watered her with 4 liters of RO and some nutrients. My 4 ladies are filling up my tent fast and getting fairly tall so I've decided to switch over to the 12/12 light/dark schedule. My Gorilla Glue ladies smell like breakfast sausages! I wasn't expecting much of an odor until they were in flower. I noticed the smell but couldn't figure out what it reminded me of until my son came in the room and said it was sausages. I guess it could be worse. 😛
Day 76 - Watered again and added a bit of "compost" tea (bat guano, worm castings and molasses) She has some slight purple to some of her stems but seems to be well fed otherwise. I hope there isn't an issue that will affect the yield.
Day 78 - First week of flower. She's still growing taller every day and I think I see lady parts so that's good. Her stems are purple and so are the stems of my other GG#4. I hope this is a genetic thing but I am adding some magnesium and calcium into the mix. Today I watered her with 3 liters of RO and some nutrients.
Day 80 - She's growing fast and drinking alot. Starting to show pre-flowers too. I need to do some defoliation soon but I am waiting to see if my clones will survive, in case I need to take some more.
Day 84 - I did some lower branch, bud and leaf removal. I also took some clones with hopes that I can have some success this time. I hope the light will have better penetration and help with a bigger yield. She is still growing fast and looks healthy.
Day 87 - She's drinking a ton so I have given her another 4 litres of RO today. Otherwise there are no signs of difficulties and she is flowering.
Day 90 - She continues to grow taller and drink well. She recovered well from defoliation so I did a little LST to open her up a bit more. I gave her another 4 liters with her nutrients.
Day 94 - Still some upward growth and the flowers are starting to show. So far there is no nutrient issues that I can see.
Day 97 - I gave her 4 litres of RO with nutrients and tea.
Day 104 - She's doing well and her flowers are filling out. I see a few pistols turning orange and it seems kind of early for that. I did some more defoliation and gave her 4 litres of RO and some nutrients.
Day 122 - She's getting close to the finish line. I think I see the slightest darkening of the flower tips and I hope that she will turn purplish. I also see the odd amber tichome which is odd since she is supposed to be a 9-10 week flower. I think I might start flushing her soon.
I decided to flush the ladies as it is Week 7 of flower and I'm thinking that they should be finished in about two weeks. So far the trichomes are mostly clear. I plan to harvest when they're milky. I get differring opinions about harvest time. Last group of ladies I waited a little longer, until the trichomes were half amber.
These pictures are kind of crappy but it does look like there are some more cloudy trichomes and the odd amber one. I gave her 2 litres of RO for now. I don't want her to get too wet as I plant to harvest her as soon as she looks ready and I want her to be dry at that time.
Day 133 - I took some last picks before putting the ladies into the dark for a couple of days. I would have liked a little more time before harvest but the trichomes are ready. There will be a smoke report after the dry and cure.
Final yield was pretty good at 4.19 ounces. There is a obvious peppery smell and taste. The best thing about this plant is the relaxation and pain relief that comes from smoking it. It is a wonderful sleep aid and a pleasant numbing feeling happens from head to toe. 😴
