This is my first grow and it’s being done on a budget, I have been looking through GD and have learned useful information but have a lot to learn, anyway
I have 5 gorilla zkittlez, I used the paper towel technique to germinate the seeds and all 5 popped no problem within 24 hours, put them in the pots on Monday 22/6 and they are coming up through the soil today( Tuesday) so the journey begins. They will only be getting tap water just now but I have canna nutrients to use when needed, they have been started in the pots they will finish in (don’t know if it makes a difference) i have 2 in 20L airpots, 2 in 15L airpots and 1 in just a standard 20L garden pot.
Everything I will be using I either got for free or cheap, the light is new it’s lumi transformer and sunmaster duel spectrum 600w bulb but got that for free. I hope to upgrade for next grow but until the i will try my best with what I have here
No. You need to drop it to between 6.0-6.5 for soil. Or 5.5-6.0 for Coco or hydro. A pH down solution will be required or you will have lockout issues. Happy Growing! 🤟😜
day 15, I think I had over watering issue week 2 but back to normal now, I think I will start giving little doses of feed from this week. got some weird leaves on one of the plants
started to give them some feed and seem to be growing ok so I will keep doing what I am doing just now, I am thinking about topping them soon, topped 3 of them today 17/7/20
buds are starting to build up now, added pk13/14 and canna boost, would have liked them to have been a bit bigger but not to worry they seem to be doing ok, the temperature is starting drop slightly due to the weather changing outside.
buds are starting to fatten up now, just wish the plants had grown a bit taller, got a wee bit nutrient burn I think but sure we will be ok, happy at my first attempt so far
just ph'd water. just wish the grew a bit taller and I think I might have got a decent yield, new slightly bigger tent getting ordered for the next time. I think I will just use clones next time around
@PEAKYPLANTERS, cheers mate, they are not what I was hoping for but they will do me, not going to be much of a harvest but I will learn from my mistakes I suppose
Why do you think they are starting to Hermie? I had a long look at the vid and all looked ok. I couldn’t see any nannas, is their a part of the plant you have seen something that makes you think this? I would expect to see many brown hairs all over the plant if it had been pollinated.
@Papa_smurf, I would wait till the end of week 8 day 56 at a minimum for most strains many going to 9 a bit more. Looks like it’s getting there though pal but I would wait till 56-60 days unless you really see something making you believe seeds are forming.
@Esoteric_growing, it just looked like a couple seeds started to form in a couple of the buds mate , I think 1or 2 are ready anyway and will chop in a day or 2, do u think they looked ready, idont have anything to check the trichomes close up
Good luck on the Gorilla Zkittlez grow! 💪
Might be more beneficial to increase pot size as the roots grow and fill each pot, this i have been told makes for stronger roots as the plant gets older because you are essentially 'training' the roots.
@Chimney_Chief, Thanks, I would like bigger pots but got these for free so will use them this grow and I am hoping to upgrade a few things next grow, I have 3x20L pots and 2x15L pots just now
