Royal Gorilla & Royal Haze Auto

berlinbushdoctor 3 seedlings looking good. The last gorilla seed to sprout has come up with the seed attached - I planted too shallow. Dripped some water onto it and left for 24 hours. Overall temp is quite low as it's -10 outside. Watering - once every 5/6 days atm. 1l per plant. Wait for soil to nearly dry out completely before watering again.

berlinbushdoctor 1st week w/ nutrients - biobizz grow and calmag. seed shell fell off the late bloomer (gorilla) - Cotyledons (first little leaves) need to be undamaged for plant to live. might be OK. I turned the clip fan off to try and raise the temp but this made the pot of one of the haze plants too soggy - early signs of root rot appearing with dark/ weak stem. Moved that pot closer to the tent opening and turned the fan back on to increase ventilation.

berlinbushdoctor Plants doing pretty good - stem is longer/ thinner and leaves are a bit smaller than at this stage with White Widow auto (WW was done in summer which could be the difference). Haze with rotting stem seems to have recovered. Late gorilla starting to grow normally.

berlinbushdoctor - plants looking healthy and bushy - accidentally 'topped' one plant by overdoing lst, recovered well - switched to 18hrs light midweek

berlinbushdoctor Getting nice and jungly but no flowering yet

berlinbushdoctor Switched lights to 12-12 to encourage flowering, some white hairs coming through now. Switch to super bloom light at the end of the week. Started defoliating big fan leaves and any leaves in the lower half of the plants. More LST to keep spiral shape of main stems going - and tied down some new central colas. First gorilla auto is looking the strongest atm Looking forward to setting fire to these badboys

berlinbushdoctor Pretty disappointing bud development on these. The accidentally topped Royal Haze has the biggest buds and most bud sites. I should've returned lights to 18/6 after lowering to 12/12 to jump start the flowering.

berlinbushdoctor The Royal Gorilla buds look and smell really nice but they're pretty small. One of the Royal Haze plants has nice and big but fluffy looking buds, the other Royal Haze is a bit fucked and appears to have Nitrogen toxicity - the plant is small, the buds are underdeveloped and the leaves are dark green and clawing. I think I went too heavy on nutes with this run - autos just don't need that much.

berlinbushdoctor Buds are padding out a bit. Leaves fading. Should be ready for the chop next week.
