Song of the Week : "Baby shark"
RH : between 50 and 90
Temps : between 24 and 36
I wasn't planning for a diary but the quarenteen is long and I need to find something else than playing Just Dance 2020 with the kids : no advertising here as I'm a FPS player only , but my kids can makes me do crazy shits like dancing in front of the TV on the song " Baby Shark ".
So here is my garden , half indoor , half outdoor with differents type of genetics and as you can see the Gorilla Girl from Sweet Seeds is here ( it's my new classic ) alongside the Lemon Zkittles and the Red mandarine which are my 3 "all year" strains so I'll be trying to keep them as long as possible and maybe I'll try to do some crosses and S1 with some reversed pollen that I'll do thanks to some STS solution , and by the way I will show in video how I am doing the STS stock solution as my wife did thraw away my old stock solution when she was cleanning the frezzer ( in quarenteen everything is clean )
The indoors plants are in coco for 4 of them and in recycled soil ( garden store are closed ) in which I've put some Mr B's Green Trees Grow nutrient by mixing with it in the top 3 first cm of the soil un each pot and in small quantity.
The outdoors are in 5L pots except for 2 gorilla girls which are in a 7 L pot , I've put some mulch on the top of the soil , like that nobody will come to tell me "hey Spinnnn you are over/under watering" haha ๐ and also because it's so hot out there that my grass is yellow/brown due to the lack of rain so the mulch is keeping the wter to evaporate too quickly !! But Spinnn what is the Mulch ? a top dressing of some crushed leaves from my garden on the top of the soil iin the pot ( 3/4 cm of mulch ) . And my mulch is degreed by some mycelium ( I've seen some white mycelium and good fungus are always /often white so it's all good ) but the mycelium will probablu die because of the lack of water and the quick evaporation of the water.
I'll be doing some monster cropping , not because I need to but because I have free time , I'm not garenteing to do it btw but I would like to hve a exemple to show when someone is asking me about it.
There is a strain that I'll be watching more than the others : the Sweet DreamZ auto F2 because it's a personal cross between a [(Sweet skunk auto X Super Cheese Xpress ) x Blue dream matic] F2 . I would like to see how could turn a polyhybrids when you are trying to breed only autos together as the commercial auto cross are cross from autos with photos that are nut going higher than F3 ( 90% of the time ). Will it be less potent , will I loose the auto genes with numerous generation ? A lot of useless questions that I'm asking to myself.
Things you have to know about my indoor setup :
-Temps & RH are too high
-No extractor or air intake because I am lazy so I'm saving 20 min of work
-Frequent under watering because I forget to water them
-Pots are too small
-I am bringing nutrients with every watering , in soil & coco ( not good )
-I am not planning to improve my setup or my skills ( too lazy )
-It can happens that I'm shocking a pnat by putting her outside during mid day while the temps are high
-I have multiple feeding charts depending on the plants , the medium and mostly because I like to change my habits when I can
-I can practice some training method without any reason than doing it but never some time consuming training , just some LST+ topping and some hst

Wednesday
Grapefruit : 7L coco medium mixed with 30% perlite was watered with a 6,1/6,2 ph water so she is suffering from a ph fluctuations as it jumped from 5,8 to 6,2 ( so a 0,4 jump ) , I will correct it and show pictures of the ph burnt

Sunday
The whole family is going ok even if I have serval issues that I'm about to list now
GrapeFruit Auto [FastBuds] : Almost ready but I already have no more space for her so I'm putting her when I can at night , yesterday it was in a 60x60 box with 110w of FL and no fan + no extraction and the morning after she had a little sign of rot so I've cut the shit out of her and she's now a full outdoor plant with only 12h of light. I hope that the new schedule will not slow her too much as I need to harvest before the spiders mites start to build a civilisation.
Gorilla Girl [Sweet Seeds] x6 : The 6 of them are doing good and the ones in the tiny pots (5L) are doing better , that strain is incredibly easy to grow .
Sweet DreamZ Auto [Spinnn's Seeds] : My babies are doing ok but I had a problem during the begening of the week , I've noticed a Nitrogen deficiency due to the stretch and the fact that the soil is a recycled one so it's needs to be feed almost everytimes
To get rid of that issue I decided to use a spoon of Dr B's Green Trees Grow , a dry nuts , and mixed it with the top 3 cm of the soil , I did the same with a spoon of bloom and did water the plants with plain water t give them a shot. At mid week they needed to be watered so I decided to boost the N amount by using a Urine+ Water solution a 1.30Ec and my plan was to water from the bottom by pooring the mix in a tray and wait for the plant to absorb it , the reason was simple : no water on the top 3 cm to not activate the recent dry nutz ! But I did the opposite and the plant are now suffering from a lil over feeding while the N issue has stop spreading.
Ultra Lemon Haze [Auto Seeds] : Nice , tall , in coco ,watered with 1.7 ec and 5.8 ph ! yellowing a bit from the bottom but nothing serious ! I will cut some clones to do some cross
That is a mixed run.......lots of strains to enjoy in a couple of months.
Gorilla Girl was an awesome run for myself as well.........@Sweet_Seeds nailed the strain๐
Cheers Growmie!!
@PrairieFrostGrow, Yes amigo , a mix run is easier to update
Gorilla girl is already a classic for me , they nailed it like you said and many of their strains are , I canโt name one I disliked
Cheers amigo
@Grey_Wolf, Can you imagine that there is a dance associated to that song .... and they are making me dancing ๐ญ
But it's cool , they are understanding when it's too much for daddy and in these moment they are switching to ... peppa pig ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
Hey there,
Thanks so much for running a diary of our genetics ๐
Let us know if you need any assistance, weโre more than happy to help.
Happy Growing !!! ๐ฑโ๏ธ๐ด๐๐ฟ๐ณ
Hey spinna. Do you have any companion plants in the garden? I have heard garlic chives, mint amd corriander can be effective in attracting bugs away from ur weed or dirupting their senses. Med in tropic is good at home made organic strategies to deal with them. Good luck bro
I'd take the bugs for sure man, haha. They may do some damage but she's close to the chop and should make it! Sorry it happened, but she doesn't look bad at all and she's wrapping up๐. Good luck with the little jerks this week. I hope you're able to knock them down๐.
Do line a good Gorilla strain mix up. I have my own cross with Gz and bg41 currently doing loop de loops to please me it seems. live my GG#4 too. not the biggest lady but so damn sexy looking strain in it's original form as well. good luck
Hey spinner,, havenโt seen you for a while mate, hope you are well and getting through these crazy times alright. A lovely garden again mate,, some really nice looking grows there this season ๐๐๐ป
Hi! Nice choice of strain, im currently growing the Gorilla Girl strain in organic living soil to get maximum taste out of my flower. What do you think of growing this strain so far? Has it been without problems or have you encountered some issues with the strain in particular?
Anyway, have a great day and happy growing. ๐ ๐ฑ
