Day 28: What a great week it has been for these ladies this week. They have all got on with business in a very orderly fashion.
Gorilla#1 has now been trained a little with some gentle L.s.t to pull her main down. I am hoping to not add any recovery needs that will slow growth down at all so no topping.
#2 She has been the most productive and has gone way past her initial stake out points. Staked out she is showing approx 7-8 good prospects for mains. I took the small lowest growth out to not waste energy on them.
#3 has engulfed her 30L pot already and tied down she looks even more able. she is showing small pre flower hairs at a few bracts . Her fan leaves are a huge size already and tucking them away was hard.
#4 Has been pulled down on her 5th node to encourage the lowers to gain some size. she is still fairly squat and bushy looking.
Sweet Cheese is slowly gaining size now and has remained low to the surface if the pot so far. I think she will be more natural grown.
Overall it feels like a great entrance into their final weeknof flower possibly. Now we have some mains set out for their long stretch session in flowering. I don't think height will be an issue for them in my room this run.lol
I gave them all a really heavy feed to get the pots active with the biosys and life-cycle again now and hope I can catch them right for their flowering boost needs. I have bought some shogun Pk and their finisher too. lets hope its a drama free week. Be safe and well growies
@Ferenc,May have a good point on the environment. lights off for 4 hours dripsnthe temonway below the usual range and often only around 12° c if good. the cold/fresh air intake is on their side of the room too.
@DreamOn,Thank you dream. looking forward to this one. only 2nd auto grow tried as usually a photoperiod grower. The growth rates surprised the hell out of me last one I did.lol
ready for anything this time round . Welcome aboard
Thanks you. The appeal of them is them is all round too. I do love gg4 as a strain and seeing so many hybrids with it in them , the choices are endless. I am happy with this choice and the results it produced. Thanks for the support.
@GuerrillaNo_4,name seemed the most fitting one. Father of 8 ( 9 in July 2021) grandad to 7 so far. Will change it to " burnt out and flat broke daddy" soon enough .lol
On the heat, I ran 2x 600w hps for decades so even winter had me trying to scrub heat constantly , now I have to add a small greenhouse heater for the coldest snaps so the heat difference is more obvious. The cooling works really well on the units and heat is mainly within a few inches of the power. They come with and extra 2m cord that allows the pack to easily be mounted outside the room and no heat at all in the room from it. brilliant idea from Mars fixed so simply. Even with all three lights on in summer , I was able to cool it enough without an issue.
@Ganjagrandaddy, Thanks my friend. Glad to hear about the heat. I already run upto 29'C so can't increase the heat much at all.
Love the Username too buddy 😂
@GuerrillaNo_4,youbwont regret it at all. very capable light and runs fairly cool for so much power. easy to cool with a small fan if needed. Nice choice.
My gorilla girl looks to close to your week 8. Still adding an inch or two a day. With small bud sites. Your grow looks good. Looks like you'll get a nice haul.
@Walleyeguy,cheers buddy. hoping they lengthen now. halfway point give or take a few day. Just caught one of my new seedlings pushing nanners out. only 3 weeks oils but def nanners. gutting.
@Smokwiri,thank you. getting to the nice part now just watching them fatten up amd grow. Always seems like miles away till we get here then drags till the end. lol be well
@Smokwiri,Thank you Smokwiri. I love having a diary to record how things went and things I try, helps find useful ways that work for me. Love sharing with the community here too. We get to meet lots of other growers to share info with too. Everyone has a contribution worthy of a few lines. wish there was a social platform to use besides the single chat though. welcome aboard , please feel feel free to comment anytime.
@PurpleWorship,sadly it was too damaged too take or too far into new flowering cycle. it only survived a day . I used silver ducting tape as it is really tacky but can come off easily too.
