The Gorilla Glue buds were phenomenal. Tight dense huge and long. I pushed these two plants really hard with nutrients..I didn't do a weight of each strain, 674 is total between 4 plants. I had one phenotype with the GG plants but it still produced phenomenal weight considering the lights I used. Alll the blue light stopped working 1 week in on my Par600. I was running well under 500 watts total and still cured 674 grams. This is what good supplements, fertilzer and care can do for you. I did use a lot of supplements for the results speak for themselves. If you want my recipe feel free to ask

I would not start a grow without Golden Tree, its a miracle in a bottle. I used 2-3 ml per gallon during flower, 1ml during veg. If you don't use many supplements, this one is a must have. Especiallly if you are a new grower and make a mistake. Golden Tree will heal stressed plants very fast.. Sweet Sticky gave me the sweetest, fatest buds that I have ever grown. I used it from day 1 to harvest, Why? beccause if you use bacteria and enzymes, it feeds them as well. But if you go to 5ml a few weeks before harvest, your buds will get very fat, more sticky and oily.
House and Garden CoCo A/B is what I used between waterings at a half dose, next watering I used Full strength Jacks 3,2,1. Amino Treatment is another must have, it also has a special form of silica in it, along with a ton of other amino's and vitamins. My plants were strong, stress resistant, and grew extremely fast. 1ml-2ml per gallon of water every other watering. Root Excelurator helped give me a rootball that was like a beach ball. You only need to use it until flowering starts at 1ml per gallon. Coco A/B was used as my inbetween fertilizer and it didn't burn or stress my plants at all...I did stop using A during Flower to cut back on Nitrogen..
MY number 1 choice...I used 1tsp per gallon every watering. This stuff is pure magic in a bag. IT will not burn your plants
I found this humic acid to be only 4% IMHO thats not nearly enough. I now use a Humic thats 57% from RAW NPK
I would give Jacks 5 stars, but its not the best soluble fertilizer made and you need to mix it completely and in order before adding the next part. I used a little very hot water to mix it, then topped it off with cold. My grow results were great and at Flower I cut out the 15-0-0 because your plants no longer need that much nitrogen and this will help with leaf control...I now use RAW NPK base nutes, Their humic acid and their silica, its far far better
Lights
People rag on Mars, but I can't complain. I grew one plant under each light and harvested 674 cured grams between all 3 lights and these two were 75% of my total weight. You can keep them closer that recommended. They're not hot and work great for 1 single plant
This was my first grow and I made a few mistakes. My biggest was waiting too long before harvesting. I wrote to the breeder and he told me I should have cut all nutrients at day 75+ and just use water from now own. I grew mine 94 days and I feel this hurt my overall yields. The buds were not as frosty at day 94 as they were at day 80, thats a fact. For you new growers I can't advise using a quality silica product with every grow. RAW NPK silica is the best I've seen. When you are mixing with silica. ALWAYS add it first, wait 15 minutes and then check your PH, adjust if necessary and take notes of what you had to do to get your Ph lowered so you don't have to wait 15min every time, because Silica will raise your PH. Once you get that routine figured out, use it with every watering. Silica makes plants extremely resistant to stress and rookie mistakes, especially PH Swings, its a must have. Your nodes will also be closer together, and closer nodes means tighter buds. Silica makes your limbs and stem extra strong too, less chances of buds breaking your branches due to weight...So please if youi listen to one thing I wrote down make it this..USE A GOOD SILICA and a HUMIC ACID thats at least 50%

The only difference is the smaller plant isn't getting the foliar feeding...I forgot about that..Can foliar feeding make that much of a difference?

hey there RonnieB, foliar feeding makes a huge difference at all stages of the plant's growth. that's because leafs absorb most nutrients with an efficiency of 80%+ whereas roots have an absorption efficiency of something like 20% more or less depending on pH and chelation. So clearly if you spray , you can spray nutrients as well as cal mag with great results. to spray nutrients try spray kelp extracts which also contain auxin, the plant growth hormone. In fact the first three weeks from seed , you can spray the plant up to 6 times a day. cal mag is a great one to spray also, twice a week if you need to , or if there's a deficiency, it will make the plant rebound almost instantly. great technique to have ! Hope this helps ! 🚀

Would better lights improve this grow? I am hoping to buy an Electric Sky 180 or 300. From what research I have done, and it was a lot. I never found one complaint and they're designed specifically for 2x4, 4x4 and 5x5 tents.

Hey Ronnie, are you unhappy with how the plants are developing with your current lights? They seem to be doing the trick man your plants buds aren't lacking or anything. There are a lots of light manufacturers out there, and so many options that its hard to give advice on every brand. My advice would be to really think about whether or not you really need to get something or not. I see you have some MarsHydro leds.. listen man.. from what I can see you're getting good results the buds are plenty fat and developing fine. Don't break the bank unnecessarily. Check out this page https://www.migrolight.com/whats-the-best-value-grow-light/ Migro does actual tests to compare grow lights and gives you the actual numbers which can help you make choices on best bang for your buck. Good luck in coming to a decision.

@CRiSPrGrow, You got it!!! I can't wait to show you the pics coming this Sunday...The plants have exploded with growth...I was comparing my week 7 pictures to today and the difference is huuuuuuuuuuuuge!!! They are really stacking up with fat, greasy, sticky buds....The sativa in the GG is interesting to watch grow compared to the other 2 strains I am growing...Im growing 3 different strains x 4 plants. 2 FB GG, Roc Bud Purple Roc, and Mephisto Northern Cheese Haze X sour bubbly...And their growing behavior is very very different. I was actually worried about the 2 GG plants because the other two are so much different , but after researching they are right on par..Being my 1st indoor grow, I honestly didn't have anything to compare them to..Thankfully I can look up other diaries here...Stay tuned for Sunday, you won't believe the growth

@CRiSPrGrow, You did..They went into flower yesterday. Well, I noticed it today. Week 4 day 2 seems to be in line with auto flowers I believe. Everything is looking good and if all these little flower/buds grow into big buds. I will have a very nice grow by October. The stems are all big, training is going well. I hope I am managing my canopy well. Some of the branches that are tied down have grown out of the containers and I can't do anything about them going upwards. I guess thats unavoidable to some extent. The tops are over all pretty even. I added another bacteria strain from Tribus, its the bloom bacteria. The grow bacteria is great, so I hope the bloom is just as good. I honestly don't think I could push these plants any harder. I can't wait to watch these buds grow...Thank you very much...Im anxious for week 5 pictures ...

@Muntjac, Its very fun so far, but if you are OCD, its not for you, LOL...Stand by for a treat Sunday, when I upload those pictures. They're already stacking up. Some of the branches have grew longways out of the pots and turning up. There is little to nothing I can do about that. Other than try to keep everything as even as I can...A couple of the taller branches had larger buds than the lowers. SO I decided to tie them down a little lower. In hopes this makes the other branches follow suit....Fingers crossed

@heizen, I have 674 Grams total between all 4 plants, but the diary wants X amount from each plant and I didn't weigh it that way...Any ideas? And thank you for the compliment. I have a good light on the way ...Growcraft X3-500, American made, over 1000 dollars and 500 watts, but I got it on sale for black friday and used a few youtube coupon codes and got it shipped to the door for 621. 3 x 5 Flower coverage and over 500 par on the edges. Very ergonomi lights too. if you are on a budget you can buy an X1 or X2 and add a another bar with ease and you'll have an X3-300 watt. Change the Meanwell driver to a bigger one and you have an X3-500 with 4x6 coverage. IF the light has a problem, you don't have to take it off line...You just remove the bad bar, keep using your light and send it in for repair. 3 year warranty too..If you are thinking about a new light theyre still on sale and use MEDGROWER1 and MRGROWIT1 or medgrower for another 5% off with each code

@Fast_Buds, I was worried at 1st with one of your plants. I wasn't aware it was a pheno. How ever that worry soon went away when it started filling in. These two plants were the 2 biggest producers of the entire grow. I mean massive, long, dense colas. The cure was easy after the long drying time. The taste and smell is very good and I was very impressed at the end result. Thank you FB
