Gorilla Zkittlez

Very happy with the growth in the first week. Planted straight into 1 gallon fabric pots with Biobizz Light Mix Giving them a small amount of water each day. Under the 45w LED bar for the first couple of weeks, then I’ll turn on the Mars Hydro TSW2000.

Another good week of growth. On day 14 I took away the LED bar light and switched to the Mars Hydro TSW-2000 for the rest of the grow. Height is 16 inches on 75% power. I’m trying the 12-1 gas lamp lighting schedule for veg. (12 on, 5.5 off, 1 on, 5.5 off) because I need the lights off as much as possible in the day for a neighbour to use his radio equipment without interference from the LED driver lol.

Topped each plant at end of week 3. Cut off the first and second serated leaves at the bottom. Started adding Bio Heaven

The topped heads are all coming back well. The biggest plant (bottom right of picture) had the top pulled down as it was way taller than the rest. It now has a few bud sites at the top.

Today (day 35) I’m switching to 12-12 The 12-5.5-1-5.5 veg period has worked well and it seems they are ready to explode into flower as soon as they switch.

Flipped to flower at start of the week. My first time with scrogging, I haven’t got the best net, the holes are quite big. Will see if I can get an even canopy.

Two weeks into flower. Looking good. Close up picture from grow question.

Coming to the end of stretch. It didn’t stretch too much which was a relief. Already getting a bit frosty at day 21. :)

Looking good. Introduced some yellow sticky sheets to catch the few fungus gnats that have appeared. They seem quite effective.

Starting to bulk up and smell. At the moment it’s very citrusy. Almost like a lemon scented cleaning product.

Buds are already really dense. No give at all when you squeeze them. The smell is amazing - very sweet. I can see why they’re called zkittlez now.

Last week of nutrients. Starting the flush and trying to get colder temps but summer is not helping! The smell is insane.

One week of flush. I think up to another week to go until harvest. I’d love to grow this strain again.

Two of the plants are pretty much ready. Just waiting for the other 3 to catch up. Hoping to chop them in the next couple of days.

Chopped them down 9 weeks and 2 days into flower. Will make a harvest update when they have dried and been trimmed.
