Growing -
Gorilla girl xl auto
Cream Mandarin xl auto
Black cream auto
... basic info
Lights 18 - 6
Nutes stuck around 500 ppm
Late flower
Girls are getting fat buds and dense dense buds on them thoe there under 1200w currently going up to 1320w with both lamps full power to give them that final push air flow was increase 180m2 per hour basically and I've had to drop a second filter in with Ona pro block 170g ... anyone have smell leaks these are amazing at just removing the smell simply by setting it infront of the fan ... I can't smell the plants unless I physically touch them it over powers that much and I've 11 plants
The Ona block pro 170g is a life saver for 13ยฃ delivered amazing results and plant safe which is the main point
Okay so I'm not going to start man handling my plants as the resin is why I'm growing it and I don't want it damaged every micro gland of resin is why where growing the leaf itself the buds it's nope the resin is why we grow ...
There all filling out tryed pushing them up to about 700ppm to 750 ppm and plants recived some minor leaf damage so I dropped back down to 500 ppm it's late into flower and I'll just use some ripen and that should do untill harvest also I'm letting them dry out somewhat more and giving them colder colder conditions and more light in hope well get some discoloration of the leaves as it would look really nice in this grow
The gorilla girl is aggressive still yet and the buds are all gonna be in grams proper solid nugs and still a way to go
Cream Mandarin xl auto has super fat buds and is gonna bring in one he'll of a harvest this plant would be a sure to be in my garden again as how she's preformed is solid ... solid genicitics easy to manage
Black cream has massive size buds bigger than the rest but aren't as near dense some of.the gorilla girls smaller buds would weight somewhere the same .. still firm and not fluffy but not as dense as the other two strains also one is pinkish on black/dark purple and the last plant to go into flower is the all green flowering black cream and she's the biggest
So harvest looks set in week 9 , 10 and Mabey 11 but we won't see week 12 and Mabey the frist lot of buds will be dryed and curing by week 12 ... happy growing
Unfortunately we've had to remove one black cream auto as she started to devolope male parts as well as female parts (hermi) so she got the cut... 11 girls still remain
Topped 9 of the girls after topping two plants and they should no slower growth or problems , it did slow growth by about 12 hours before lights out plants where doing super so another 6 got there heads cut off meaning with 9 plants we have 18 new tops and 21 tops altogether now
Also broke a branch on a plant yesterday noticed it looking like shit today so pulled it off
Also lights moved and airflow out increased as temps warm up I don't want GG genetics turning hermi as it has GORILLA GLUE #4 GENITICS which was a hermi itself ... but high high THC
@Lukush, check the new harvest phtots the big green on is in the description it's the photo of the plant still standing in the background is that big black cream although it's green in colour
@Lukush, I will do I can't belive the size of the green black cream she's released from the netting and she's massive I'll need to tie her back with some LST as her buds are just forming and are on course to dwarf the last set , smells quite fruity with all 3 plants but looking at the green black cream is werid
@Lukush, I got one out of the auto mix pack only plant that fitted the bill thoe out of a collected bunch the black cream are doing the best . Thoe in there own right the gorilla girl xl auto and the cream Mandarin xl auto are doing nearly just as good
@Igrowneil, love a game plan and sounds like u got it all mapped out, a fair few seeds ur popping fingers crossed u get 100% germination ๐ค i have heard and researched into dropping the temperature its risky im sure 2 weeks was the limit off the top of my head, as is darkness forn2 days before harvest. Im following u so will keep me eyes open andbget feedback I ain't got the fundamentals or the space to do that just yet but once I'm further into my development wouldn't mind giving ur technique a go myself. Fingers crossed u will have some seriously resinous smoke once harvest. Thanks for sharing technique, knowledge is power and in this game all these little tweaks help..
Happy growing mate and I hope ur next harvest is fruitful ๐ฏ๐ฏ
@Syrunz, germinating 12 , x4 gorilla girl xl auto, x4 black cream auto and , x4 cream Mandarin xl auto hopefully all 12 pop as I'm looking forwards to this grow as my 1st and 2nd ever grows turned out pretty good , now where back with double the power double the plants in the same size space as the last grow a lot more equipment to keep the environment stable at specific ranges through out the grow
as the week go on I'll reduce the temp towards 16oc will be the final day temp and night temp will be 3oc I'll also in the last two weeks before chop ill reduce the light to 400w to mimic winter coming along with the tempuature droping off over the days , this is the point the plant should produce more resin to protect the flower .... it happens with nature I could destroy a full harvest but it's worth a shot to improve THC degradation to a minimum amount heat and light both destroy the THC I believe so tempuature reduction done in a very slow and controlled manner should in theory be better for the plants flowers. I do belive I'll get the XL plants to 3 foot alone with the black cream in a ScroG type grow or LST I haven't fully decided yet
