Starting a new winter indoor grow. I'm excited to try out my new light set up and some sweet new genetics! Putting the seeds in water today... fingers are crossed for a good germination rate! UPDATE: one seed is slow to put down the taproot... the other seeds put down a curled up root... she's in dirt now... fingers are crossed she breaks the dirt.
She's picking up some momentum now and I think nutrients has a lot to do with it. She's at 3 nodes already and the bottom node seemed to sprout out of nowhere the other day...
She is short and dense and very bushy. She's coming along nicely. It's an interesting pheno for veg stage... I've never seen such a squat plant before LOL...
She's stretching out here... next week she will be in flower... flushing and preparing to swap to flowering nutrients. She's a bushy mofo with loads of branching. I love this one.
She's growing well. Started a bit of LST on main cola. She's looking for humidity. 45% is not enough. i'm going to increase it to 50 for a bit to see if leaf health improves.
Spider mites!! I have to clean out my grow room and treat all of my plants. Fuuuuck! I guess this explains a LOT. It's the first time I have run into this. I have a detergent insect spray specifically for spider mites and I have used it on other house plants, but I have never seen it on my cannabis plants before. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Stay tuned.
Spider mites spoiled this grow. She is not going to bounce back... she lost almost all of her fan leaves. I'm going to push through harvest, but expectations are low.
So, I have to start by saying that this grow is not really reflective of the potential of these genetics, and I would really like to grow this variety again to demonstrate that. In this case, I made a couple of dumb mistakes... and I really should have known better. In the fall I brought dirt into my grow room that I had saved in the back yard over the summer, and then because that wasn't dumb enough, I agree to take on a plant from a friend that was moving to Mexico. Between those two things I ended up with spider mites in my grow room.
The Gorilla Girl XL plant started off cute and short and bushy like a mofo.... and then she stretched out nicely. Her buds were frosty and dense... but the spider mites ate her roots, and attacked her leaves. I treated her with a mild insecticidal soap spray which kept the infection at bay, but I was never able to get her back to healthy. She was strong enough to make it to harvest... and I was lucky she even survived.
We will do a smoke report later today... stay tuned for the update.

spider mites suck ass - we had a lovely sunflower on our balcony that we brought in around October on some cold nights and put them beside the clones I had on my kitchen counter....watering the one day and I see the little bastards making webs across to the clones. I used some watered down isopropyl alcohol (be careful as it can burn your plants) or better yet - hydrogen peroxide watered down. Neem oil works as well but the goal is to dry them out fast. Get some basil or oregano growing in there as well...pests hate the smell and deters them from going near your babies 👌
@Thewendigo, I'm in the process of getting some. The product I'm using now is a mild soap/detergent so it's not a poison technically speaking.... but the difference between poison and medicine is the dose, yeah? LOL
Hi buddy!
Looks like you have a little lettuce, but very healthy 😊
The light you are using, what spectrum does it use? Maybe this could be the reason...
Sweet smokes!

@Sweet_Seeds, I have three different lights in my grow room: two QBs and one Mars LED. It's in my diary. I think this one might just be 'special' and that's okay :-) I'm short too LOL
Congratulations! 👏
A good harvest, with a super delicious appearance. 😍
Thank you very much for trusting our strains, and sharing your experience.
And thank you very much again for the score of 9 out of 10!! 👏😍❤️
We hope you enjoy the harvest 👌
Sweet smokes!
