Hello and welcome to my diary of "Royal Gorilla" from Royal Queen Seeds.. Hope you are well and thanks for viewing.. 😁👍 This strain was hidden at bk of seed box for a few months in fridge.. I decided to start her as this months mother plant.. I kept to my usual mix of biobizz allmix soil, pebbles and perlite(2.5 -1- 0.5).. Will grow her out for few wks until she's developed enough to clone from, keeping her short and allowing lower growth to push out more.. Always leaving a growth site on branch wen takin cutting so she can continue to grow.. Will b giving her room temp plain ph'd water @6.2 until 3rd wk or signs of hungry plant(yellowing/dulling fan leaves,slow new growth).. Will make the usual 2 best choice clones from her and transfer them into a 40ltr NFT active hydroponics system.. 🦍😍 Huge thanks to everyone who views, likes, comments or follows any of my diaries.. Stay safe to u all and i wish u the very best of luck in all ur gardening activities.. 👍🍀

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope ur well and enjoying your weekend.. 😁👍 Great week for the "Royal Gorilla" from RQS.. Just letting her fill out still.. Only given her plain ph'd [email protected] and roughly half a litre each day she's drinking now.. 28 days since germ and she's only lived off 4 litres of soil!, will start to feed her soon(this wk most likely), but only feed her once every few days after a couple of days water.. Beautiful fat fan leaves on her.. Loads of branches trying to push out.. Will top her nxt wk and allow her to breathe a bit easier so i can av more choices from taking cuttings and getting 2 great clones from her to bloom out in my NFT system.. Looking forward to seeing her explode in hydro.. 🦍😁👍 Big thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes.. Stay safe n best of luck in ur grows.. 👍🍀

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope ur well and had a great day.. 😁👍 Topped my girl this wk(20/8/20) to open her up a bit and allow her to give me more cutting sites in a wk or 2.. She is growing very stong and has still not received any food yet.. Will give her a feed in few days after she recovered from topping.. Cant wait to see how she'll fill out the tent wen she gets cloned and put into NFT.. no problems with her at all so far.. She seems a very strong plant.. Fan leaves are very thick and wide.. Very close noding on her so far.. 🦍😁 Thanks to all of you for your support, comments, follows and likes.. Stay safe n i wish you all the best in ur grows.. 👍🍀

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope ur all well and had a great week.. 😁👍 Bin a busy wk for the "Royal Gorilla" from RQS.. the 2 original clones i took have been transferred into larger cubes(4inch) and i took 2 more cuttings from the mom b4 i passed her on to my pal.. She's in his good hands now and will b placed into coco in his setup..👍😎.. I recently got email that I have been picked for the Autumn RQS contest so depending on what strain i receive these girls might end up as back ups(if i get photoperiods-if i get CBD or Auto then Royal Gorilla will go in Nft in 4-5wks..😁👍 Great big thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes..

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope ur all well and had a great day.. 😁👍 Kinda misjudged my times n really need to start mother plants later.. 🤣.. Decided to top my 2 clones to let them bush out a bit more and slow her height down a bit for now.. Id planned for them to go into Nft in 14days but it might get extended an extra wk depending on current plants in hydro.. Really looking forward to get these 50/50's in.. The girls had another feed today and have been drinkin plain ph'd water @5.6 all week.. Noticed wen topped today one of my girls has now got a triple head!.. 😁👍 Big thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes.. Stay safe n i wish you all the best in ur grows.. 😁👍🍀

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope ur all well and had a great week.. 😁👍 Last wk of veg for my "Royal Gorilla" girls from Royal Queen Seeds.. Finally getting space in the hydro tent for them Saturday.. Looking forward to seeing how these girls cope in nft as i passed on the mom to 1 pal who put her into a 30ltr coco and said she's gone crazy and my other pal had the 2 mini clones and put them in autopots n he saying he's had an explosive root growth.. Neither of them have flipped yet tho so we all very interested in this award winning strain atm.. Gave her a bit of a defol n took away lower foliage to encourage bushing.. Fed her again today n she's been on plain ph'd water @5.6 all week.. Wen cube is light I'll just dip into solution for a few seconds n drain of excess.. 😁👍 Great big thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes.. Stay safe n best wishes in all ur grows.. 😁👍🍀

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope u are all well and having a good day.. 😁👍 Great 1st wk growing in the nft.. Had a few ph raising issues first few days but she's balanced out now and her roots have finally started to grow thru the matting on top tray.. Ive also changed the dimmable hps to 600w today and ive been trying to train her all wk by pulling all her main heads across and trimmed her out to let as much top growth as possible..😁👍 Huge thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes..

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope u are all well and had a good week.. 😁👍 Great wks growing for my 2 "Royal Gorilla's".. These girls are really picking up now.. Put them onto true 12/12 yesterday after first 2wks on grow feeds.. The res was emptied and i left roughly 10litre of veg feed in.. I topped res up another 30litre with 2.8ml per litre of bloom based feeds and same amount of all other additives as last wk.. Expect to see her stretch this wk hopefully and start sum pre-flower lst with ties and yo-yo's towards the end of wk and maybe sum snipping off any lower sites that will b small.. (all depending on how much she fills out).. 😁👍 Big thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes.. Stay safe and best wishes in all your grows.. 😁👍🍀

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope u are all well and having a good day.. 😁👍 Great wks growing for my RQS "Royal Gorilla's".. Definitely see the purple more on her now.. Resin glands forming all over her n the smell is really starting to get strong wen u open the tent.. Surprised how much she's stretched this wk n will most likely see a slow down on this by nxt wk.. If any flowers look like they starting to suffer I'll bend them over using either yoyo's or wire and apply a little low stress training.. 🤞😁 Huge thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes..

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope u are all well and had a good day.. 😁👍 Great wks growing for my 2 "Royal Gorilla" clones from RQS.. Tiny bit of height gained again this wk butnothin to worry about as i can raise the lamps a few inch still.. Raised them by about 5-7cm this wk just to b safe.. Only 21days left on them till 9wks in flowering so excited to see how much they fill out.. Shud of took alot more from lower branches to fatten up her tops but im still confident she's guna get chunky.. Lots of resin glands covering her n lovely colours coming from her all over and the smell is very strong-shes a beautiful plant.. 😁👍 Big thanks to u all for your support, comments, follows and likes..

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope u are all well and having a good day.. 😁👍 Great wk for my beautiful "Royal Gorilla" girls.. Ive tried to take as many shots as possible so u can see how great this plant looks.. The smell is intense and she's just a pleasure to grow tbh.. Funny how things turn out..a purple pheno of this strain is apparently not to common.. Feeling blessed by the RQS team to grow such a lovely looking and potentially super strong strain.. Officially only 2wks left on her but she's showing minimal browns pistils and most trichs are clear still.. Will b watching her closely over next few days as i slowly start to reduce food levels and get her on plain ph'd water by nxt Saturday if all grows well.. She has swollen glands all over but she still has plenty of ripening left by looking at her.. 😁👍 Huge thanks to u all for your constant support, comments, follows and likes..

Hello and welcome to u all.. Hope u are all well and had a good weekend.. 😁👍 Great last few wks for my "Royal Gorilla" girls.. Been chatting to a pal on here named @Caaos and we been talking about both our Gorilla girls which av been runnin roughly same times.. I saw he placed an apple around his fruits n it made sense and after we chatted a bit i decided I'd give it a try,please check out his grows!..emptied res today and filled with 1/4 strength ripen and will start the main flush on her mid wk.. took a few upper leaves off around main colas to help her breath abit easier and she's swelling up her glands nicely.. 😁👍 Huge thanks to u all for your continuous support, comments, follows and likes..

Both are still pushing out lots of new white pistils but glands are swollen all over the place and she's completely covered in cloudy trichs with few ambers 3-5%..will b harvesting her mid to late wk and will write final harvest report when she's ready to cure.. My carbon filter is struggling to completely take away all the smell and you get a faint odour when i enter room were the tent is.. Beautiful strain and very pleased I've grown her.. 😁👍 Huge amount of thanks to you all for your support, comments, follows and likes.. Stay safe and best wishes for all your grows.. 😁👍🍀
