Gorilla Glue Auto Fastbuds

Jason420 First, I planted the Gorilla Glue Auto from Fastbuds in a small pot, surrounded by regular potting soil, and in a small area right around the seed, there is some seedling soil. Two days after the seedling showed up, I transplanted it into a 20L plastic pot very early.

Jason420 This week wasn't very exciting. I only watered when the substrate was dry. I stuck my finger deep into the soil to check the moisture. I only watered once a week and pretty much around the plant and not directly on it because I want the roots to follow the water and fill the whole pot, not just wander down to the edge of the pot. At the end of the week, I started with LST when I saw that the side shoots were already coming out because I want them to grow bigger through LST. I don't have a pH meter, so I just googled the average value of my tap water in my area and the average value of the rainwater around here. I then made a 50/50 mix; I'm convinced that a grow is possible even without a pH meter because this isn't my first grow.

Jason420 This week, the plant has allowed the side branches to grow better through Low Stress Training. Due to the positions of the different branches, some have grown larger than others, so I gently pushed the big leaves a bit under the smaller growth and tied down the side branches that were too big. Afterwards, I positioned all the side branches where I wanted them to grow so that in the future, I would have wide, evenly sized colas. I didn't need to water at all this week; on the last day of week 3, I decided to use the first organic grow fertilizer from BioBizz. I added 1ml/l because I won't be watering the whole liter. This way, the lady should have some nutrients for the future, as far as I know, the microorganisms in the soil are being fed and the plant still needs to wait a little while before it can utilize these nutrients. I decided to tie the main stem sideways with a strap in the direction I want it to grow because I had to reposition the metal hook several times a day. I think with the strap, the main stem will grow in a curve and then straight towards the light. Let's see what happens next week. I see happy, strong growth and no discoloration of the leaves.

Jason420 My lady started pre-flowering right at the beginning of the week, and she already got a compost tea with the BioBizz nutrients as instructed. Now she has started to stretch this week, and the side branches are beginning to grow well. I've started to tie the side branches in the directions they should grow later so that the light can shine better down to the bottom and each individual cola gets enough light later for a good yield and quality.

Jason420 This week, the lady has put on some white hairs, and she should really be in bloom now and start stretching. By the end of the week, you could see that the later buds are slowly starting to swell.

Jason420 By the end of the week, the lady started forming the first recognizable buds from which many hairs are growing. There's only one shoot missing; otherwise, it's already present in all the other shoots. I tied the shoots apart a bit more because there are a few new side shoots coming under the canopy that should also grow well. I only water when necessary, and just a little bit.

Jason420 By the end of the week, the first trichome production was noticed, and the plant is starting to develop a nice sweet scent. One shoot is taking a bit longer than the others. By the end of the week, I noticed that when I re-tied the main shoot, I slightly damaged the stem like in a crop, but it seems to have positive effects on the grow because the main shoot has produced many more shoots in a very short time.

Jason420 Aie has really bulked up this week and produced a lot of new bulb sets. I'm extremely curious about how long it will take and what kind of yield it will give.

Jason420 Noticeable growth in flower clusters. You can see how the buds are getting bigger and swelling. So far, very satisfied with the genetics. I'm already looking forward to the harvest and snacking. But I just have to be patient.
