🇺🇸 Week 8 of Growth – Mother Gorilla – Royal Queen Seeds 🇺🇸 This week, I’m happy! The roots have recovered well. They continue to eliminate dead roots, and you can see in the photos that new root growth is emerging. This is a great sign—it means the plant is regaining strength. The roots have resumed their growth, which is the big highlight of the week. The plant has also continued to develop foliage. It’s now dense and well-filled out. Today, I did a major defoliation to maximize light penetration and maintain good airflow. Now, I’ll let the plant recover because I think I’ll be switching to flowering soon, maybe next week or the one after. I really want to optimize light penetration to encourage new shoots, which will later become flowering sites. Environmental Conditions & Nutrients: We’re still at 18 hours of light, with temperatures between 25–27°C and humidity around 70%. pH and EC: I’ve had some issues with pH rising. It tends to climb to 6.5–6.6, so I have to lower it regularly. Since switching back to RO water, I stopped adding tap water. But now, I’ve started reintroducing small amounts to help stabilize the nutrient solution. Initially, my RO water had an EC of 0.1, which I increased to 0.2–0.3, and now I plan to raise it to 0.4 before adding nutrients. This should help maintain a more stable pH. The EC was set at 1.4, and now it has dropped slightly to 1.3, which is great news—it means the plant is drinking and absorbing nutrients well. Final Thoughts: • The roots are bouncing back. • The plant is strong and healthy. • I performed heavy defoliation and topped some apical growths to keep the canopy even as I finish filling the Scrog net. • I changed the nutrient solution this week, so we’re on a fresh mix. Now, I’ll let the plant recover from the defoliation, which might slow it down for a couple of days. Overall, things are looking great, and we’re getting closer to flowering! ⸻ 🇫🇷 Semaine 8 de Croissance – Mother Gorilla – Royal Queen Seeds 🇫🇷 Cette semaine, je suis content ! Les racines ont bien repris. Elles continuent d’éliminer les racines mortes, et sur les photos, on peut voir que de nouvelles pousses apparaissent. C’est un excellent signe : la plante retrouve sa vigueur. Les racines ont repris leur croissance, et c’est vraiment la bonne nouvelle de la semaine. La plante a également continué son développement foliaire. Elle est maintenant bien touffue et bien fournie. Aujourd’hui, j’ai fait une grosse défoliation pour maximiser la pénétration lumineuse et maintenir une bonne circulation de l’air. Maintenant, je vais laisser la plante récupérer tranquillement, car je pense la passer en floraison bientôt, probablement la semaine prochaine ou celle d’après. Je veux vraiment optimiser la pénétration lumineuse pour favoriser de nouvelles pousses, qui deviendront des sites de floraison. Conditions & Nutrition : On reste sur 18 heures de lumière, avec des températures entre 25 et 27°C, et une humidité d’environ 70%. pH et EC : J’ai eu quelques soucis avec le pH, qui a tendance à monter jusqu’à 6,5–6,6, donc je dois le réajuster régulièrement. Depuis que je suis repassé à l’eau osmosée, je ne mets plus d’eau du robinet, mais j’ai recommencé à en ajouter un peu pour aider à stabiliser la solution nutritive. À l’origine, mon eau osmosée avait une EC de 0,1, que j’ai augmentée à 0,2–0,3, et maintenant, je compte la monter à 0,4 avant d’ajouter les nutriments. Cela devrait aider à maintenir un pH plus stable. L’EC était à 1,4, et maintenant, elle est descendue à 1,3, ce qui est une bonne nouvelle : la plante boit et absorbe bien les nutriments. En résumé : • Les racines reprennent bien. • La plante est forte et en bonne santé. • J’ai fait une grosse défoliation et topé quelques apex pour maintenir une canopée homogène et finaliser le remplissage du Scrog. • Changement de solution nutritive cette semaine, donc on repart sur du neuf. Je vais maintenant laisser la plante récupérer de la défoliation, ce qui la ralentira sans doute un peu pendant 2–3 jours. Dans l’ensemble, ça se passe très bien, et on se rapproche de la floraison ! 🤘😎

Ho effettuato il tiraggio alle più alte, defogliazione per tutte. Adesso devo diventare delle belle signore!!

Oct 2nd 2022 - into week 8 of Flower - final ingredient in the last soil amending was mixed-in last week (bat guano) - nutes backed-off slightly - basic Nutes tomorrow in a Meal 5th - plant is watered today, 5L of pH’d water 6th - caught the neighbour kid and two of his Friends geeking-out over my plant from a window. The plant (cali crasher) was moved INSIDE the garage and will be taken to a safe place outside for the last 2 weeks. 7th - plant was placed in the garage last nite at dusk, for feat of theft. This morning i took it to a fairly protected spot, so it can enjoy its lst 2 weeks of solid growth and exposure to the sun. Oct 8 - last day of week 8 in Flower - Nutrient buffet planned for tomorrow (Sun) and Tuesday will be her “Last Meal with Nutes”. Then its Water-Only

Today is the beginning of the 5th week I see the first sings of hairs/pistles she does not need feeding so I am going to top dress her with some local bat guano and some raw bloom stage microbes in prep for the next feeding. Hopefully she gives me some more stretch. Side not I know I could be asking a lot of questions but would just rather learn the process by watching her and see what she does and when so I can better programe in the process for any other auto grow. I feed her on sunday/yesterday just to add an update. See above nutrients and additives.

Experiment explanation see week1 this week got this: Plagron sugar royal 1ml/l Plagron power buds 1ml/l Plagron alga bloom 4ml/l Plagron green sensation 1 ml/l Aptus CalMg 0.6 ml/l smell is the best I have smelled ever...incredible

Took off all of the tops from the shoots that were getting tall. Mayne a bit too much we will see how she responds. Tied down the 4 mains to the edges of the pot. Need to top the 2 remaining mains towards the end of the week when she recovers from today's stress. Needs water, may do a full feeding this time.

Questa settimana ho deciso di montare una lampada di supporto a LED per poter far arrivare a tutte le piante abbastanza luce, le piante continuano a crescere e i fiori sembra che stiano maturando per bene spero di raccogliere almeno 4/5 piante entro 2/3 settimane,perché alcune sono molto indietro rispetto ad altre.

The plant responded very well to fim it is growing steady I wish I can leave her vegetating for another week but the other plants in my tent are growing at an incredible rate of speed so I have to rise this one in order to catch up with the rest canopy that's why I flip them to flowering schedule 12/12 I have been defoliatin in order to prepare them for maximum light penetration into the canopy for the flowering cycle . I will continue to update thank you for reading and have a happy grow.

Blow Mind Blows My Mind!!!😎 👉Harvest day came! The plant trichomes were mostly cloudy, still a few clears and very little amber on the calyx’s. If this was the only indicator for this plant I would have kept going until I saw a few less clears. However the plant did not have many fresh calix’ and most of the leaves were fully faded and drying out (referring to the major cola branches). Since it’s a Sativa dominant strain, I wanted the uppy high and so there was no need to risk pushing any further. 👉To do the harvest, I started at the bottom of the plant. I trimmed the secondary branches off and most of those landed on the ‘larf’ net, and the major colas got wet weighed and placed on a clothes pin with a letter on it. I logged each bud with its wet weight. Each clothes pinned cola was hung on a drying rack. Some of the lower coals had some decent secondary buds and those were given numbers so they could be jarred with its main cola later. I was not able to access the plant and trim as much of the secondary branches from the main branches. The lower branches have lots of secondary branches and lots of under developed flower. I will categorize it as larf because it is under developed, even if each secondary branch would be the same size and quality as many of the so-called ‘contest winners’ on this site. But I digress…The bud structure wasn’t ‘perfect’, oversized calyx’s, longer and slender, with a bit of fox tailing. But oh wow is it frosty! This is the stickiest of any that I have grown so far. My first Gorilla glue lived up to its name as a scissor clogger…this plant is twice as sticky! The sticky is all over the plant and extends well out onto the sugar leaves and the stems. The lower areas of the plant also had more leaves on it, so it became a frustrating exercise of leaves being trimmed and sticking to my fingers as I plucked them, then switching to the scissors to snip the leaves, which quickly became sticky and required lots of scraping to keep working. I started using two different pairs of scissors, one for leaves and one for the buds. I did get a nice, almost marble sized scissor hash ball. 👉The buds had lots of sugar leaves; these were all frosty as fuck. So I only trimmed off the leaves that stuck out. I didn’t trim them close. The structure of this bud, a looser trim is seemed to be what it should get. I had 18 main colas, and 8 buds from a couple of the lower main colas. There was one and a half net racks with decent sized secondary buds, and two net racks full of ‘larf’. I didn’t weigh the larf after a few bunches. After all the buds were trimmed, cataloged and hug on the rack, and aimed a 42” tower fan set about 36” away and turned to a medium speed. Two smaller fans pointed at the round net rack. The grow tent exhaust was cranked to high because the sweet funky stank was pissing my wife off…so I knew it was going to be something special! Outside, even with moderate breezes you could smell it outside around the house. After 12 hours I rotated the buds side that faced the fans, after 8 more hours I turned the fan down to its lowest speed. I again rotated the buds and weighed a couple to see the reduction in weight so far. The buds on the net rack were turned every 8 hrs. During this time the outdoor temps were in the 40s and sunny. My HVAC was set to 65f and didn’t run much. After the buds started feeling a little dry on the outside I placed them inside paper lunch sacks and left the tops open. I monitored the buds closely till they felt like they were getting a little drier. At that time I closed the top of the bags. When I did that step I weighed a couple buds and we were at about 38%. Another couple of days like this and I weighed again, we were at about 25-30% weight remaining. Normally I shoot for 20-25%, however the buds felt very dry so I proceeded with the cataloging the weight as I placed into jars. I placed hygrometers in each jar and expected to be leaving the jars open regularly to keep the humidity down. Surprisingly most of the hygrometers were registering below 60% humidity with only a few of the jars needing any airing out. My target humidity is 62%, but since they have all been slightly lower I have held off on putting the humidity packs in. The buds are still a little moist around the middle and Im sure the extreme frosty stickiness is contributing to holding in some moisture. This isn’t a bad thing and I have the humidity low enough that I shouldn’t get any mildew. I put the 62% humidity packs into the jars as I felt that each jar needed it. The final weights do not include the 'larf'. The total of the underdeveloped 'larfy' buds was 142g and would make great hash. I wont be making hash however because I the kief hash is already more that I will consume. 👉I took a small larf branch two weeks early. . I just let it dry out with no care for about 5 days then put into a small jar. It’s really the best larf I’ve toked yet. Very sticky, sweet funk aroma, and a nice strong buzz. I sampled some of the main buds after being in the jars a few days and it was significantly stronger! Taking a tiny bit of the scissor hash at two weeks was exponentially stronger! At 6 weeks the flavor is wonderful. Smooth and sweet. The taste at exhale make me smile.

A quick update on the king Tut.the slowest of all the Pyramid seeds ive grown. Weeks 4-5 should really show what ill be working with. Im growing 3 other Pyramid genetics and there all 2 ft + in week 5!

Bit of nute burn appeared on just one of these phenos overnight. I think this is as this plant flowers longer than my nute charts so did a bit of experimenting. Wil dial it back a bit at this stage next grow to avoid this and have dialled back a bit now, moving forwards. It's not too bad and still seems localised to certain parts of just one plant so not gonna stress about it.

Week 10 for Space Panda by Atlasseed, The roots on her are just insanely nice. She finally got her transplant into 25L of fairly good soil mix of biobizz light mix/coco mix + a good feed of @bokashibiochar + a feeding of BioGrow by greenhousefeeding I think a few days of adjusting and she will start to explode.
