We have reached the end of week 8. All trichomes are officially cloudy, with some amber here and there. I started their flush last night and am planning to let the go 63-65 days total. I don't know what the yield will be, but to my eyes, these plants appear to be the largest I have ever grown. I am just hoping they are dense. The last round was large as well, not nearly this big, but still large. However, the density was just not there and the yield ended up disappointing a little. Hopefully this one comes through. Cannot wait for this season so be over!!

This slurricane smells sweet and delicious. I spread the plants out a little this week so they get better light and air flow. Other than that I haven't done anything besides keep the reservoir full. Still pumping nutrients 1 minute on 20 minutes off. They are getting .5 tsp maxibloom per gallon. Not going to run any boosters this round. They dont look like they want or need it.

I started using fertilizer. I use biobizz grow, fish-mix and alg-a-mic. I water it 2 or 3 times a week, adding the amount of fertilizer I specified in 1 liter of water each time. Huge difference for last week. I think I'm progressing well

Week 8 Flower week 2 Flower-day 5 26/10/2025 Finally feeling good again! Kept the same nutrient mix almost the same, have had to use some others just to get by until more rock up 🙃 Floramax Veg 1: 1000ml Floramax Rezin: 400ml Floramax Organabud: 400ml Floramax Flowering Enhancer: 400ml Cyclo Platinum Silica: 200ml ISN Cal-Mag: 400ml (still waiting on my main one to be delivered, so using what’s left of this) Green Planet Massive Bloom: 200ml Green Planet Bud Booster: 4 scoops (30ml each) Sleeps with the Fishez: 100ml — used some hydrogen peroxide today while waiting for the next batch to arrive next week I’ve been looking into a flushing additive called New Millennium Winter Frost for a nice clean finish. Pistils finally popped up yesterday on a few of the top sites! Should start seeing some solid stretch from LA punch soon, guessing around 30 to 40cm at least, who really knows right now 🤷‍♂️ I’m letting her do her thing and reach up into the net for now. If she starts getting crowded before the end of week 3, I’ll kick off some early defoliation. Also got two AC Infinity IonBeam S11 lights set up sitting about level with the top colas. I’m aiming the light to hit the middle and lower sections instead of blasting the tops directly, trying to get that nice even coverage. Still debating whether I even need to scrog this run, but a few people keep telling me to give it a go to see the difference, I guess only one way to tell 🙌

The buds are growing bigger still and the tent is really starting to smell, the stems have turned red from being close to the grow lights and my center buds have foxtailed, i now know for future runs to stay more on top of training so the plant cant grow as tall. pistils are starting to turn, If i had to guess I would say 11 weeks seems like an accurate flowering time I have also let them get dry a few times.

They are still plumping up nicely I’ve been only feeding ph water up until the end of this week. I’ve done a mix of ph’ing and not(laziness) started to notice purple leaves and buds last couple days. Just waiting for more green to disappear from the leaves.

This plant has been very enjoyable to grow and the smell of it is incredibly Pleasant I will update when the plants are drying and ready for curing it will take approximately between 7 and 14 days because I wait until the main stem snaps with a crunchy sound. Day 5 of drying and they are still far away from ready but they're starting to show a nice Colours now . the smell it's becoming very powerful even without curing I know many Growers cut them down when the smaller branch are snapping off easy but I wait until the main stem I bend and a crunch very dry sound come out of it because I don't like to deal with mold and I have a very busy life can be opening curing jars every few hours everyday that's why a good Boveda packs and a good drying are my best friends. These are the weights for the two plants that one that was bigger #1 is 51.12 grams the second plant #2 was 36.17 grams . They smell very nice like a kiwi skunk smell to it . The high are strong and last about hour and a half to two hours. For a regular smoker I will classified as day stuff on the Stoney side. With a high THC probably what is advertised on their website . This is very good for somebody who wants to have a quick grow of very good stuff or somebody who lacks space but doesn't want to sacrifice quality. The fact that I couldn't get a large yield out of it was a bomber for me I really like plants that are capable of producing a large yield. Taste 10 out of 10 Aroma 10 out of 10 High 8 out of 10 . day. strong THC. Yield 6 out of 10. Easy to grow strain. Possible to crop in 65 days from seed at 20h lights on.32 Centigrades and 45%humidity. Thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow.

I left my brother to mist the seedlings whilst i was in amsterdam for 4 days, got back expecting growth but found the plants have stretched and looked leggy and not much growth apart from stretch…(should have took photos before repot) I planted the seedlings in clear plastic cups with holes punched into the bottom, the medium was very moist and wasn’t seeming to dry out soo i decided i would repot in red cups as i heard clear cups are bad for roots…(feed the girls very lighly was due to bad drainage more then over watering)… I used fresh coco and pulled away as much moist coco as possible without disturbing roots, i added great white to the medium and root balls of the seedlings and repotted burying the stretched stem as much as possible… I didn't water the coco prior or after the repot as i didn’t want to stress the plant further if the roots have been getting drowned by excess water in the coco due to poor drainage, i sprayed mist above all seedlings when all was transplanted very very lightly with a micro dose of rhizotonic by canna… 1 blueberry muffin seedling looks like its going to die the other 2 are okay. I have attached photos after transplant should have photographed before transplant but didn’t 😅 When should i water next seedlings are hard work i usually runs clones that come of a defent size and root structure…🤷‍♂️ My ppm is 150 tds from the tap Ec is 0.4 out the tap Im dechlorising my water with tap safe for 24 hours before use. I have been recommended to ph to 5.8 is this correct ? My temps are around 23-28 degrees And humidity around 55% - 80% Love for reading this far, i will be posting a update every week, Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated 👊❤️

I experimented with this as it was a free seed and I wanted to see what would happen if I removed any additional nodes and just kept focus on the man node/ cola. She weighed in a solid ounce dry maybe less give or take a few days of curing/ drying. Smoked really nice and packed a punch which kinda made me regret using this beautiful strain in my experiment as I would have loved more from her but at the same time she taught me a lot with regards to nutrient levels and how plants react depending on which way they're trained or defoliated which has really helped me with future grows so for that I will certainly be running this strain again! Thanks Barneys ... Awesome genetics as per usual 👏

Bueno, empezamos por el final familia. Gorilla girl, me parece una cepa BRU-TAL , ya partiendo de esa base, mi error, creo que e cometido , es poner estos ejemplares en macetas de 5L, que tonto... mínimo recomendado 7L y a ser posible 11L Otro error fue no dejarlas una semana más. pero, escasez. (intentaremos curarla un par de semanas). Cepa con flores muy compactas, hay bastante separación entre nudos pero compensa las flores de verdad. Sabor muy dulzón a mi me recuerda a melón , es un pepino recomendado para amantes de la hierba que llevan tiempo en esto, un colocón muy fuerte, ahora mismo estoy bajo los efectos de esta vaina, aseguro que con cada frase, leo varias veces y detenidamente por que válgame.

Lot’s of LST and training this week! The girls did very well overall after being topped, and have recovered very nicely. I also finished up my drying my last harvest, so after a cleanup session, my big tent was ready to go again! This week was pretty easy, just watching the girls and adjusting the ties to keep the side branching going. I like to come in regularly and bend and twist the shoots between my fingers encouraging healthier stems. While I’m in there I’ll adjust the wire ties a bit to keep things even. After 2-3 days with the tie downs on, I’ll take them off and let the plant recover. With the environment dialled in at 79 degrees and 63% RH, it’s giving me a VPD of 1.0-1.1 , great for optimal growth. 💪 I think I am going to split the girls up, 4 (2 of eachin the one tent, 2 in my small tent, both with a Scrog in place. It won’t be long before these girls are ready for flower, October is a busy month for me so I may wait until the beginning of November to switch to flower light timing. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨

They are all doing great. I cleaned my resivor and forgot to turn the valve back on. In less than 24 hrs my boy starts wilting ( he is such a pussy ). Other than that things are good. My light decided it was tired and wanted to quit working. It is 3 years old, but I barely used it. I have a spare, but anyway its time to shut it off. They are getting about 14 and 1/2 hours of sunlight. The longest day of the year was on Friday. Its almost like it knew. 😂🤣😂🤣 They should already be outside in the final pot..... but I'm behind. They should be 5 feet +.... but I'm behind. My boy is the tallest at 43 inches and the shortest girl is 36 inches. I will transplant into 25 gallon hard plastic pots. This grow will be slightly different this year. Somehow I will make it happen. I'm thinking of cramming them into tomato cages, and seeing what happens. I'm not even sure if I'm going to top them. I am just going to play it out and decide later, or not decide. I'm sure it will have some ups and downs.

Since boosting the bloom nutrients, Bud are gaining size. Added second light to expose lower buds to more light. Keeping temping below 80 was an issue adding second light but also adding more exhaust fans to tent. Plant seems to be only a couple weeks away from harvest. Will start to flush next week for 1-2 weeks.
