WELL YES FRIENDS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD ...
I WILL ALSO TRY TO GROW THE PHOTOPERIOD OF THE RENOWNED ROYAL QUEEN HOUSE TO KNOW WHAT I HAVE LOST UP TO TODAY !!!!
WITH THE HOPE OF HAVING MORE ABUNDANT AND MORE POWERFUL COLLECTIONS!
EVERYONE SAYS THE AUTOFLOWERS WILL NEVER REACH THE VALUES OF A PHOTO-PERIODIC ...... I CAN'T WAIT TO UNDERSTAND WHY
i agree with timbarin it looks like ph problems check the runn off. i always do a 2 or 3 liter straight water feed 10 min before my nute feed to help keep soil ppm and ph under control maybe try the same thing its not like you have anything to lose
In response to your question about transplanting and topping. Topping and transplanting sounds like a lot of stress all at once, to me. I would top a week before or after transplanting depending on your circumstances. Silica products, Mycos, and kelp all help to minimize plant stress. Good luck and happy growing!
@PEAKYPLANTERS, I did a quick search and found an article with information provided about using Rhino Skin.
It states:
"Foliar spraying potassium silicate is a preventive against powdery mildew, mites, thrips, aphids, heat, gray mold and other stress that attacks your plants from the outside."

The article does sound a little sales-pitchy at times, but may provide some helpful tips on how to use. It states to use starting mid veg. It includes a suggested use for using as a foliar feed too. Hope this sheds some light on things for you.
@PEAKYPLANTERS, Interesting that it says during flowering. I've never used this particular product, but it's just potassium silicate. I have been using up to week 2 of flowering. I had come across some information that gave me the impression it's not good to add after week 1 or 2 of flower. Because it enhances cell walls and encourages thick stems, I have been using during veg to help "build a solid foundation". As a foliar spray, I have read it also has some anti-fungal properties.
Here is a link to the product I have been using:
https://www.blueplanetnutrients.com/gold-shield/44-gold-shield
It has feed instructions for seedlings too, which is about half strength of medium to large plants. I am sure you could use the Rhino skin in the same manner. Half or even quarter strength the dose. Maybe a more experienced grower can step in here and provide a better explanation.
Good luck and happy growing!
@FoTwenny,I bought rhino skin by advanced nutrient after your suggestions .... but when I returned home I realized that on the back it says that it is to be administered only in the flowering phase .... any of you use it? ?
Hello Friend! Nice setup! I'm growing a royal gorilla too! Come take a look at the daily self and see if you can help or need help! A hug and continue cultivating!
