BeanswithPork I waited on this plant, but it has rebounded enough to at least treat it seriously. The third clone in the line of Gorilla Bomb clones I’ve had. This is a sister clone of Gorilla Bomb Clone 2019 (II), and both were cloned from Gorilla Bomb Clone 2019 (I).
Day 54.
Of note, this clone’s mother was overnuted to the point of nitrogen toxicity and will essentially be a total flowering loss. This clone struggled in my basement for weeks until I was able to modify some things and consistently warm my veg. tent. It is only now green and growing again.
I have transplanted twice, the recent being 15 HP Pro Mix soil: 5 Fox Farms Happy Frog Soil: 5 worm castings, and Myke Herbs and Vegetables mycorrhizae.
My lighting is a 300 watt actual draw LED with a smaller pod that is 1/6th.

BeanswithPork Day 61 since cloning Gorilla Bomb. Great progress this week and this month overall. It has transitioned from yellow and struggling before I solved the heat issue, to basically in excess of nutrients. I am not worried, everything looks great. This clone’s parent is dead but its sister is doing great. No pressure on this one other than to grow. Water and time. I did some LST after photos which you can sort of seen in the group shot.

BeanswithPork Day 68 since I cloned Gorilla Bomb. I have bent the main stalk with LST, heavily defoliated and exposed everything, and topped. It looks like a twig but it will now begin to form new branches and fill out. I’ve held off a transplant for now. Just water and time!

BeanswithPork Day 75 for the third Gorilla Bomb clone that I’ve grown. Lots of amendment, the soil is hot, so the plant is on the verge. Dark green leaves, thin leaves, lots of vegetation, streaking stems, all signs of excess or lockout. Not a huge deal with lots of water and time; it is delaying offshoots making a better canopy. Stay tuned I think we are on track still.

BeanswithPork Day 82 since cloning Gorilla Bomb. Everything is looking fine, fine, fine. I decided to transplant as it filled the pot. I’ll just give it more time to fill out and use up amendment.
My soil amendment mix was primarily: 30 HP Pro Mix: 5 Fox Farms Happy Frog: 5 worm castings: 2 ASB Greenworld Sheep Manure Compost: 2 ASB Greenworld Black Earth: 2 ETI Greenhouse Gold Seafood Compost: 1 Blood and Bonemeal pellets: 1 Green Gaia mineralized phosphate (guano): 1 pulverized egg shells; and Myke Herbs and Vegetables mycorrhizae. I did layer it more than usual, meaning I side and top filled with just straight HP Pro Mix.
So, did you notice that Gorilla Bomb needed help with rent? New roommate 👩❤️💋👩. They are getting cozy. I know that some fruit trees benefit from communal root structures, but I do expect these two to fight over room. It allows me to stack young pots on top and save space. And its a fun experiment. Its symbiotic sister is BlackJack Clone 2019 (III).

BeanswithPork Day 89 since cloning this Gorilla Bomb clone, my third. The pot sharing is going just lovely, the two girls are cozying up. Tons of growth from both, obviously Gorilla Bomb benefits being more under the light. I had to cut back on vegetation after pictures to free up other young plants. Plenty of time yet to veg. Just water for now.

BeanswithPork Day 96 since cloning Gorilla Bomb. Things are going really well, gangbusters. Not only does the plant seem to be doing fine with sharing a container, its grown so much its forced the smaller plant sharing space to be moved (due to lack of light). It has completely grown over. Just water and time. I trimmed and topped after photos. I think I would have space to flower this one in about three weeks.

BeanswithPork Day 101 since cloning Gorilla Bomb. This plant (and its container sister) have gone into overdrive. Despite temperature issues all week, they continued to fill out, get bushy, and tall. From the top shot, its hard to tell which plant is which. Its just taking way too much space. I’m not quite sure if temps have effected nutrient absorption, or if its out of amendment or what - I am surprised by the purple stems. Anywho, tossed it into flower tonight haha. I really jammed it into the tent. I really need space, this thing was cutting off the heat circulation in my veg. tent. I will be cautious of nutrients because its only been four weeks, but two mature plants worth of root structure.

BeanswithPork Day 108 since cloning Gorilla Bomb. One week of flowering complete, eight weeks to go. Things are looking great, still plenty of green. It needs a bit of phosphorous which it will have to wait one more week when I start feeding. For now, soil amendment, water, time. I am completely at capacity. The last two shots is the group at both angles.
My tent is hung mylar in an unfinished basement covering six feet by four feet. The lighting is as follows and spread out over that area: two 300 watt full spectrum LEDs like my veg. tent. 96 watts of yellow LED bulbs as supplement. And two custom made 50 watt LED pods, which are a mix of LEDs. The spectra are listed but the pods are merely an approximation.

BeanswithPork Day 115 since cloning Gorilla Bomb. Two weeks of flowering complete, seven weeks to go. I have to be ultra cautious moving forward. I am still dealing with major soil amendment problems. I had a late flower plant bite the dust. I have to assume this one may still be a bit overloaded and more nutrients could be accessed. However, because it is sharing a container I have to assume more nutrients were used. No plant food applied with irrigation. I have changed my flowering timer back to 12/12. The reduced flowering time did quicken the start of flowering, but was not worth the loss of yield.

BeanswithPork Day 122 since cloning Gorilla Bomb. Three weeks of flowering complete, six weeks to go. A little adjustment in the leaf green this week. Buds are forming, looks good. I tried to defoliate after photos, tough to get at this one behind all the plants. This one is due food tomorrow and so I expect some mass gain this week. Both container mates are looking good!

BeanswithPork Day 129 for Gorilla Bomb. Four weeks of flowering complete, five weeks to go. Steady progress, not a deep green leaf colour, but it will be easy to fade. I gave water today so it will need to dry a bit before more food. Fuel like smell, sharp. I have messed up two Gorilla Bomb previous, so this one is on good pace comparatively. Got alot of rain recently, and flushing other plants, and so my humidity is very high today.

BeanswithPork Day 136 since Gorilla bomb was cloned. Five weeks of flowering complete, four weeks to go. Not giant buds, but plenty of them. Tons of trichomes. I still feel the nutes are off, but still looking decent. I’ll take it. I recently fed 0-10–10 Alaska Morbloom, a popsicle stick dip of blackstrap molasses, and Plant Prod MJ Spike (CalMag). I just might get to the end without killing yet another Gorilla Bomb. Kind of fuel like, weird, not quite cheese, pretty unique smell. It is easy to remember this beauty shares a container with another full grown plant, BlackJack.

BeanswithPork Day 143 for Gorilla Bomb. Six weeks of flowering complete, three weeks to go. Interesting so far. I will say Gorilla Bomb seems highly sensitive, I’ve messed three up so far more than other similar plants. I’m trying to rack my brain what set this one off. My guess is maybe I have been going way overboard with molasses, iron excess would cause bronzing and lock phosphorous out. Outside of the bronzing, the plant is sickly. Anyway, subpar. Most recent irrigation was water so it got some relief. It has a sort of sweet, fuel, sort of smell.

BeanswithPork Day 150 for this Gorilla Bomb clone. Seven weeks of flowering complete. Fade is coming on rapidly. I suspect this plant is already in death phase. I think the visuals are cooler than what the fuel, cheesy, mixed smell buds are going to produce. Four days ago I gave the last food, 0-10-10 Alaska Morbloom, with a popsicle stick dip of blackstrap molasses, and Plant Prod MJ Spike (CalMag). Time to flush away for the next two weeks or so until harvest!

BeanswithPork Day 157 for Gorilla Bomb clone. Eight weeks of flowering complete, one week to go. I’ll chop a few days early seeing at how dead it is. Deficient, gasping for life, pushing out the last trichomes. I’ll flush until the end so I don’t expect any nutrients remaining, the colour would indicate as such haha. The smell is fading but its still a bit fruity or sweet, with some pungent-ness to it.
Without further adieu, this is Bomb Seeds’ Gorilla Bomb! I’ve had to wait as I murdered two plants of this strain, prior. I feel Gorilla Bomb is sensitive with nutrients, and despite its fast growing needs less nitrogen heading into flower, as excess of nutrients or soil amendment burned me.
The genetics for veg. are unreal, fast growing and vigorous. This strain is very easy to clone and quickly gains height. In this case I was pressed with size and actually elected to place Gorilla Bomb into a very large container with another cannabis plant of a different strain/distributor. This did not seem to harm either plant, they both continued strong growth, produced bud, and the roots when cleaning up had filled the container and were healthy. Flowering seems to be a bit more sensitive.
The smells when growing flirted between sweet, cheesy/pungent, and just classic herb/plant smell. I noticed this strain particularly threw aromas depending on if it had been fed food or water, time of day, etc. Smell on the finished product is wonderful fruit and sweet smelling!
As stated, very strong of fruit and sweetness. The taste comes through strongly in the vape and really colours every bowl. This is an elite mixer strain. I really do believe this has passed Strawberry Cough in taste ... which is a shocker. Effects are sativa, pretty good strength, probably not the highlight.
A little difficult to grow but the final result was more than worth it. I have many more clones on the go, even in flower, some on account of how easy it is to duplicate.
This a strong entry out of the gate, with the context of earlier troubles with the strain. Solid 9/10 on the first go.

BeanswithPork Harvest was very easy based on how faded the plant was, many fan leaves came off in their own. I gave some extra dark before harvest. I budwashed before hanging to dry, dipping and swirling the buds in a container of baking soda/lemon juice/water first, and then swirling in a container of just water.
@@BeanswithPork, good things come in small packages lol. Sorry she wont be the biggest yielded but if the buds smoke as good as they look shes gonna bring the fire
Oh baby are those some beautiful looking buds. Lovely color and thick layer of frost. Fantastic work my friend. Keep it up and may the ganja garden gods bless you along the way with this grow and all future endeavors as well
perfect conditions for an awesome and beautiful plant! =) congrats, bro!
loooots of trichs early in the flowering... I can only imagine how it will end up like! =)
I will follow up!
Thcau, do Brazil!
@@BeanswithPork, That's a solid motto. If you have the space, use it. Sometimes I read articles saying "leave yourself some room to move around the plants and work on them". I don't have a commercial grow space, I have a 4x4 tent...I need to fill that sob up or I feel like I'm wasting time and potential yield. I'd rather craw into the tent to feed the girls in the back then have less of them to feed, hahaha! Keep inspiring people to USE. IT. ALL! 👌
