Oyzi goes USA : Royal Gorilla

3 of the 5 seeds have germinated. I made some small mistakes 😭 but learned from them : 😛 1. Too much perlite. 10% max. 💪 2. Too dry 😎 3. Flower bulb (too much red) instead of grow light (white/blue light) 👿

Busy week preparing my soilmix and repotting all plants in Autopot XL 25 liters. 😋 3 Royal Gorillas in one pot 😀 Soilmix for 100 liter : 50 liter perlite 50 liter Plagron Light-mix 1000 gram Biovin (new name : Terra Pulse) 2500 gram DCM Rockdust 500 gram DCM Bentonite clay powder 500 gram DCM Kieserite 250 gram DCM Calcified seaweed powder 50 gram RQS Easy roots Mycorrhiza On the bottom of each Autopot XL is 5cm clay pebbles. In Each autopot are 3.5 Healthy start tablets (www.bioplantenvoeding.nl) In each Autopot I planted 3 to 4 plants 😉

The plants have established themselves well in the autopots. 👌 The first week the autopots are not yet linked to the water reservoir. 😏 For the time being I water (with nutrition) from the top. 👍

This week I connected the autopots to the water tank, and put the plants on a 12/12 flowering schedule (DAY29). 😊 Only water now..... 😭 Size of the plants on the first day of flowering: Royal Gorilla Plant # 1: 27 cm Royal Gorilla Plant # 2: 26 cm Royal Gorilla Plant # 3: 20 cm

All 3 plants are growing medium fast, normal internodes and many medium sized leaves. Compared to my previous grow of Royal Gorilla, I have mostly indica style plants. 😊 On DAY36 I removed the 2 lowest branches 👌 The plants have started smelling 👊

My garden has turned into a jungle 😊😵😍 The plants have grown so much last week, it's really incredible 😲💪😁 The plants transpire enormously, so that the humidifiers are no longer necessary. 👌 The swing fan runs at full speed, so that the temperature difference between the plants and the room remains high and the VPD low. The plants have therefore more than tripled in size in one week. 😮 I did some defoliation, and removed the fan leaves at the beginning of the week. Starting from the top. About 6 leaves per plant. 👍 I bought me some led lamps so I can make better pictures. The flash of my phone is not so good... So the light in the pictures are not from the flowering lights. 👻 I watered the plants twice from above, so that I could add Green Sensation. The plants are in an Autopot and get their water from below through the water tank, but I cannot add organic nutrients to the water tank, because of potential blockage of the water hoses. 😱

Welcome to my jungle ! 😛 Have you spotted the Gorillas? 😁 Never before have my plants grown so incredibly in such a short time. 😁 Growth rates from day 1 to day 27 of bloom: Plant #1 : 27 cm -> 113 cm = 435 % Plant #2 : 26 cm -> 94 cm = 362 % Plant #3 : 20 cm -> 110 cm = 550 % 👈😲 Plants have stopped growing 😊 Just at the right moment. 😍 I've got 3 Royal Gorilla plants in one Autopot XL (25l.). The plants automatically receive water. The nutrition comes from the soil mixture with the nutrition tablets. 👌 Twice a week I water the plants from above with 2,5 l. water with 2,5ml. Plagron Green Sensation (0-9-10) per Autopot. 💪 • Improves flowering • Increases resistance • Improves soil • Maximises the yield I defoliated some of the fan leaves so that they don't cast a shadow on the lower buds. 👍

Everything went well this week. 🙏 Buds are forming. Trichomes are coming. 😍👌 Smell is getting strong. 😁 Daily defoliation. Probably the last time before harvest trimming. 💪😊 Lower fan leaves turned yellow. Removing of some lower branches. 😛👍

Buds are filling up. Trichomes are multiplying. 😍 So beautiful to watch 👌😊

Just enjoy 😍 Very beautiful strong plants. Fantastic smell 😵

Very happy with my Gorillas 😍 All plants are going great and have almost reached their final stage..... 👌 The flowers are swollen, the trichomes are rich in number and turning amber, the smell is incredible. Looks like colors are appearing.... 😊 Only water in the last 14 days 😭 Cold nights 😚 Royal Gorilla is definitely one of my favourite strain. Firm branches. Big buds, Superb quality 😄

3 Royal Gorilla plants. All of them are doing great 😍 Buds are getting really fat, hard and sticky 👌 Incredible smell 👍 👉Mild defoliation 👉 Cold Nights 👉 Only water

This week I cut the plants.... and took Royal Cookies #1 outside for a quick (because of the smell) photoshoot 😇😜💪
