STILL TO HARVEST
GORILLA GIRL XL AUTO X3
NO.1 #PHENO , TOPPED AND UNTOPPED UT
CREAM MANDARIN XL AUTO X3
2 X TOPPED LST , UNTOPPED UT
BLACK CREAM AUTO X2
SMALL PHENO AND ( GREEN ) FLOWERING PHENO
THESE ARE STILL GROWING AT A FAST PACE , SOME LEAVES HAVE BEEN BURNT DUE TO A LARGE TEMP SWING WHICH I MANAGED TO CATCH EARLY ON .
THOE PLANTS HAVE GREAT FOLIAGE DOWN UNDER THE CANOPY AND BUDS DOWN THERE ARE STARTING TO RIPEN UP NICELY
TEMPS ARE 26oC INO ITS HIGH THOE ITS THE LOWEST I CAN KEEP IT WITH THE HPS LIGHTING . X2 400W CURRENTLY RUNNING AS
X660W BURNT SOME LEAVES WITH THE PK ISSUE FRIM LAST WEEK THOE I DONT THINK ITS REALLY AFFECT THE PLANTS MABEY A DAY OR TWO AT MOST
STILL DRINKING 1.5LTS PER PLANT PER 24HOURS
ADDED SOME N , micro PK , GHE GROW MICRO BLOOM 40% TO HELP SOME PLANTS MAKE GOOD BUDS AND NOT REMOVING ALL FOOD BUT IVE KEPT THESE GIRLS ON SMALLER AMOUNTS SINCE WEEK 7 AS THEY DIDNT TAKE WELL TO OVER 550PPM I WENT 758 AND CAUSE PK TOCITXY TWICE , I DID ATTEMPT THE 750PPM A SECOND TIME AND IT GOT WORSE , THOE THESE PLANTS ARE TESTERS FOR @SWEET_SEEDS SO WE TRYED A FEW APPROACHES FROM TOPPING AND LST TO NOTHING AT ALL AND THE RESULTS BECAUSE WE HAD 11 PANTS TO SHOW A MORE DIVERSE RANGE OF RESULTS WHERE ACHIEVED. TOPPING AND SCROG SETTING LOOKS TO HARVEST AMAZING FIST SIZE BUDS BIG DENSE MONSTER IN COMPARISON TO THE OTHER PLANTS WHICH RECEIVED NO TOPPING OR TRAINING DISPLAYED DIFFERENT BUD STRUCTURE , THE BUDS ARE DENSER ON THE TOPPED AND TRAINNED PLANTS IN THE SCROG LOOK TO BE VERY GOOD YEILDERS FOR 25 INCH IN HEIGHT THEY LOOK SET TO RIVAL THE FULL SIZE PLANTS AND LOOK ALREADY TO BE OF WEIGHT AND MIGHT EVEN YEILD MORE ON ONE GORILLA GIRL I EXPECT TO YEILD ABOUT 3 OZ OR MORE OF A PLANT 25 INCH IN HEIGHT , CHECK OUT MY GORILLA GIRL DAIRY FOR PHOTOS OF THE NUMBER #1 PHENOS
EACH STRAIN NAMED ABOVE WILL ALREADY HAVE 1 HARVESTED PLANT AT WEEK 8 DAY 5 ... STILL DRYING AND WILL BE FOR ABOUT 14 DAYS IN TOTAL BEFORE GOING TO BE CURED
IVE TRIED SOME FAST DRYED AND AS I BELIVED THE
GORILLA GIRL IS PURE DANK , THIS STUFF IS SMELLY ALREADY WAS JUST 5 DAYS FROM CHOP AND THAT PEPPERY SMELL IS COMING BACK
CREAM MANDARIN ALREADY SMELLS LIKE ORANGE EARTHY AND HAY , NEEDS A LOT MORE TIME.
BLACK CREAM SMELLS FRUITY DELICIOUS AS I DID THINK ABOUT THIS STRAIN ALOT AND HOW SMOOTH IT WAS TO SMOKE LAST TIME UTTERLY AMAZING SMOKE THATS WHY WE GREW HER AGAIN .
ALL IN ALL PLANTS WILL BE GROWING AWAY UNTILL I NEED TO HARVEST THOE WAITING ON THE FRIST LOT FINISHING THE DRYING PROCESS TO START THE NEXT ROUND OF HARVESTING
TOPPED AND TRAINED PLANT PREFORMED AMAZING STRUCTURE AND SPEED , BIGGER FLOWER SITES AND GREW BETTER WITH NO PROBLEM THE UNTOPPED AND UNTRAINED PLANTS DIDNT PREFORM ANYWHERE NEAR AS GOOD THOE I DO FEEL THIS IS ONLY THE CASE WHEN PLANTS ARE ALREADY FIT HEALTHY PRAYING AND NO ISSUE IN THE PREVIOUS 72 HOURS
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
