Same again both Oreos USA beans we popped running side by side both topped and now tied down to even up the canopy and get them ready to be flipped to 12/12

Meh, couldn't wait longer - most of the stigmas are orange, and the trichomes are mostly milky with a few amber ones. Good to go :-D

At 84 days from seed, 29 days into bloom, she is drinking about a liter (1/4 gal) per day. The stretch has stopped. I continue to defoliate lightly so light and wind can get to the bud sites. Her harvest window will start in another 30 days so there is not much to do but wait. Highest temps in the tent this week were 79F, lowest were 73F. I read somewhere that purplish tones are more likely to show themselves if you have cool nights. Unfortunately, as I'm growing during the summer without AC, I don't think I'll be able to create cool enough nights to see purple leaves. She smells great though and is putting on weight well. I am excited to watch her develop. I am also trying out Terpinator for the first time. I am using it at much lower dosages than recommended. I plan to increase the amount I put in when I get comfortable that it won't burn my lady.

11/3 - Today is technically the first day of Week 5 and also the first day I could see a visible drop in her water level since her last check-in (~12 hours apart). As a result, her ppms shot up to around 800. I diluted the solution with straight tap (7.5pH, 170ppm) since her pH was registering around 5.3. This brought her up to 5.6pH and 670ppm (1.0ec + tap, 500ppm of nutrients). I would have liked to adjust her pH more, but the water level ended up at the bottom of the basket. I'll adjust further as necessary. The other day while attempting to LST her top branches, they ended up snapping off, so I just topped her down one node and broadened her other LST to make her as squat as possible. Once I am able to find a suitable individual ScrOG screen, I will put it on her. 11/4 - I wasn't even planning on doing an update today, but I want to note a few changes. The first of which is a visible difference between her foliage density in a span of 36 hours. Her root bundle is over a foot long and getting more wound up every day. I removed her LST ties in order to take advantage of the ScrOG screen apparatus (see notes below). After lights came back on, she measured 645ppm and had another notable drop in water level. Currently, I am preparing another nutrient solution that closely matches what she is feeding on now. I will be upgrading her to a 5 gallon bucket. I will be aiming for 1ec of nutrients/additives (500ppm + Tap on my meter, Hanna Primo .5 conversion). Tap measured 180ppm, so target ppm would be 680. Later that same day... So I finished upgrading her to a 5 gallon bucket before I actually got done writing the update. Added one photo showing new 5 gallon setup. Solo ScrOG test mk1 - In an attempt to do a ScrOG, but maintain control over each bucket, while still having relatively easy access to each reservoir, I decided to throw together this little contraption. I removed the lowest complete segment of a tomato cage, leaving a short "tail" beyond the lower ring to act as a peg to insert into corresponding holes in the lid. The lower ring is 10" in diameter and the upper is approximately 12" in diameter. Each ring is 11" apart. I would prefer to have a shorter segment, but I haven't worked out exactly how to do this yet. I would prefer to set the screen height at around 6" above the bucket instead of 11". This will have to suffice for the time being while I let my latent conscious work out a solution or one is provided by the community. Above each cage will sit a coated wire fence with grids measuring ~2"x3", as shown in the above picture. 11/5 - Uploaded short video showing Solo ScrOG Apparatus in place. Screen height currently set to 6". Thanks for stopping by my garden, and, as always, Happy Growing!

She’s been chopped and trimmed—final weight came in at 105g. The buds are dense, pleasantly heavy, and absolutely beautiful. They shimmer like green velvet under the light, a texture and glow that feels almost surreal after weeks of care and anticipation. It’s a satisfying end to the cycle, and seeing the results laid out makes all the effort worthwhile. Now onto drying and curing, with hopes of preserving every bit of that richness.

Day 35-42 Plants are making a nice comeback (d36) Some minor defoliation around the top was done during the last few days (d32-36) I plan on increasing DLI to 40+ during next week. Some defoliation + LST/leaf tucking + pinching (d38) #3 has comeback nicely and has a unique phenotype compared to the 3 others (d38) #4 has slowed down a little bit. The soil was more dry so maybe a lack of water/nutes intake (d38)

I finally chopped her down. She's now hanging to dry, will update with weights ASAP. Royal Gorilla Automatic was exceptionally easy to grow. If anything she was a little too bushy - I should have done more pruning to keep her under control. Colours on display here are spectacular, deep purple and reds throughout almost all the buds 😎

16cm vertical growth this week, but she's bushed out a lot.

They gettin fat

The plant’s staying super strong and resilient. Did another pruning today, and it’s looking like we’ve got another beast in the making! I think she’ll be back in her proper spot in about 10 days, tops.

How many days do you think I have left to harvest?

super happy with this pheno and so glad I put her in a larger pot, she is my second largest auto ever and im so pleased that she is doing well. If you haven't tried cbg cbd combo its a winner and I think in the future this will be extremely popular as the health benefits from the combination of the two are very special !! give it a grow and thank me later

Something wrong happened on the end of last week. I had a little irrigation problem and I did a m mistake with the fan’s position, it was too direct on the roots. I think this could have caused a block to the nutrients transmission. I will give just water with regulator ed enzym+. Let’ a see

Ill give it till friday next week and cut it. 💚 i have no choice need to pack up and move to a new house 😪 but ill be back💚

Swell continues. Day 34 of 52

Maintained the LST and Defoliated girls and to me they seemed to be fine with everything done. I also gave them nutrients on 11/12 and plain water 11/16 and both was until runoff. This was the 1st week with UVA lights on for 1 hour at the end of the days light schedule.{ Ladies seem to have no issue with UVA} only issue is #2 seem to be having a rough grow, not sure whats going on with her.Other then that to me with my limited knowledge and this being my 1st grow ever and the mistakes i made they look to be fine to me, but IDK.Either way i'm happy and enjoy growing my own BUD. Thank you all for the responses that i have received from the community on Growdiaries. HAPPY GROWING!!!

The smell is absolutely amazing. So fruity!!
