Early days here, planted in May so loads of time for the veg stage. The 30L pot was a good choice! LST was just after this, I tied her down to give the other branches more light.

She reacted well to the LST so will continue tying down when required.

Finally moved the Gorilla indoors. I was worried I'd bring in too many bugs but sticky yellow paper worked brilliantly and there were very few. First time using my Migro Aray 120W. I should've bought 2 of them but didn't have the money.

The buds are really starting to take shape. Looks like this should kick out a good harvest 😁

Now the crystals have arrived! She's glistening in the LED lights, smells fantastic - really citrus with hints of grapefruit! Really impressed with the Migro so far, it's not hot and the girls are responding well to the full spectrum + Red

Every day is a treat when opening up the tent. The plant is big and beautiful. I have a feeling there's a long way to go but I'm more than happy to keep on feeding her for as long as it takes. The 3 largest colas are getting really big. Probably about the width of my wrist and growing every day :D

Sorry I missed last week, I was consumed with a harvest. The Gorilla lost the biggest cola last week due to some mold that had found its way into the cola. Luckily I got a dehumidifier in time and the rest seems to be OK...I hope! This does mean I have a little bud drying to do an advanced smoke test 😎 The rest of the plant is looking spectacular and I might have to start tying the bud to the ceiling to keep them from collapsing under their own weight! The smell is super lemony, can't wait to test some! See you next week, NeoCat 😸

This week was disappointing - I found that humidity was too high and budrot had taken over the biggest colas. I've had to start harvest earlier than anticipated. It's a shame but think it will mean I can save some decent bud. The smell on this is divine, I can't wait to smoke it 😁

Beautiful dense buds, glistening with trichomes. The smell is one of my favorites. She handled everything well. Will be growing this one again next time but will try some more stressful techniques. I love everything about this plant 👍

If I could start this grow again I would have brought her indoors a lot sooner than I did to kick off the flowering cycle before the cold weather came in. It's all part of the fun, next time it will be better. I love everything about RG, the smell, taste, dense buds and it's pretty to look at!

Hi & nice job. Can I ask where you live & was there any identifying info on the outside of the package to say it was a grow light? I'm in Ireland where it's still illegal to grow so I have to be careful. Thanks!!

@Kilbarrack, Hey. Don't worry, it was really stealthy. Just a plain box. I'm UK so also have the same concerns. Migro is an Irish company so they're understanding 👍

Not sure why the description is showing the Royal Goilla Auto, this is the photoperiod variety and has been growing since May!
