2nd week of veg. Will be using Cal/Mag and Grow With Grease for watering when needed until I begin to see nute issues. 2/16 D2 adjusted LST and turned the pot for better light penetration. 2/19 D5 mid day @ 1430 3 potential main colas were topped. 2/20 D6 The girls received a lite feeding as we transition to another beautiful week of veg growth.

D63 - The start of another week. I completely forgot to take any pics in time so grabbed a quick one right after the lights were out. I'll post better pics tomorrow. D64 - I watered each girl with 2.5-liters of water @ pH 6.5, and snapped some better pics. ;) D68 - All is well in the tent. I gave each girl 2.5-liters of compost tea @ pH 6.5. I also did some additional defoliation. D69 - The end of the final week of veg. The girls are healthy and vibrant. #1 is starting to get bigger than #2, even though she is one week younger. She is also more thirsty so I gave her around 1.2-liters of water @ pH 6.5 while #2 didn't need any.

Great experience. Would've grown even taller if it was outdoors. An absolute monster that stinks and is rich in trichomes. Can't wait to harvest fully and try, it looks to be an awesome growth. Some mould spots here and there because of humidity but not a lot now. Washing will be in warm water with lemon juice

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2203 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... 🤪 But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Mars Hydro Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/1- I soaked both seeds for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Vivosun Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged roughly 24 hours later. 12/3- Today their tap roots were about 1/4 to 3/8" so at 11 am I transferred them into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph using a tine off of a plastic fork as a 'mini trowel' to make a hole in the pellet and to gently cover the tap root, leaving only the seed head slightly exposed. This method accomplishes most of the initial work the seed has to do by eliminating having to orientate itself, push it's root down and head up. By 10pm the #1 seed had her cotyledon leaves opened ...waiting on the #2. 🧐 12/5- Well this is Day ONE for the #1 FBT #2203 and I anticipate seeing her sister poking her head out real soon! I'll keep them in the covered/heated Jiffy tray until I see their roots beginning to emerge from the peat pellet, then I'll transfer them gently into their respective fabric pots. The #1 will be going into the 4g Gronest pot from FastBuds and the #2 will reside in a 3g pot by Wraxly, which I'm trying out for the first time. 12/7- Yesterday I checked the #1 tester and she had roots starting to emerge from her pellet so tomorrow I'll transfer her into her 4g Gronest pot. The #2 tester has finally made an appearance and this will be Day One for her! She looks great and I'm confident that she should be ready to transfer into her fabric pot in the next couple of days! 😎💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! 💪😎🤙

Bueno esta semana se sube el EC a 0,8 aprox. Probé a hacer un corte apical ( no sé si lo hice bien 🙁) y una defoliación, si todo va bien la próxima pasamos a floración. Esperemos resistan mis torturas, pobrecitas!🙏 Esta semana fue bien, soportaron los cortes y se recuperaron bien, mucho olor a vegetal....🌲🌲🌲🌲👌

Startet the germination of this plants on 07.05.2018. 4 of 5 Royyal Gorilla Auto seeds germinated and are growing well. They are staying in my garden and i hope that they will get more and more sun this coming week. 1 of 4 is quit strong , and ist already frosty and has good buds , hope they will get big and fat. the other 3 plants are a bit slower and one of them is a bit small but bushy. first "outdoor" grow for me in a not soo sunny area.

A week with lots of activity from my side, from the Gorilla's side, not so much. She stays behind and I can't find any other reason than genetics/seed quality. She is in exactly the same conditions as the other girls. I'm letting her do her thing. She will give some weed, well see how much. Maybe she is a late-bloomer. She does look lush and healthy so we do not understand but are learning. I put in the scrog net since her roommates need it and lowered the lights and started giving more flowering feed. The light is still awesome, the amount it puts out. This SP- 3000 rocks and, wallet permitting, we will go for a second one. @MarsHydroLED might be so happy with the amount of coverage we give them, they'll send us another one 😏 If you haven't seen it yet and you are in the market for new gear, check out the Black Friday super sale on www.mars-hydro.com!! We are gonna see what happens coming weeks with this strain. So far I am a bit disappointed and didn't expect this from this strain. We will never know if it was the age of the seeds or something else. What I do know is, it was the last time I use a third party seedbank, it is apparently too hard to keep fresh stock with too many strains. Until breeders put a production date o the packaging. Isn't it time someone said that? Cause lets keep it real, we are talking seeds that in any other case would have a cost of production of fractions of cents per seed. We pay what? 3 to 5 to maybe even 20 dollars a seed for an exceptional strain? Is it then too much too ask to put a friggin expiry date on the package? Or store them cooled? The breeder that does that and arranges a deal with third-parties that overstock can be sent back, packaging recycled, in exchange for fresh stock. Like any other fresh trade. For an industry making what, a billion worldwide, it is remarkable how many are still in the stoner with a garage / 80's trailer park, backwater funfair warranty, kinda customer service. Me: i grow organic weed for 30 years, these seeds were old Seed dealer: Yes but you failed to do a raindance on the rising moon, no refund. Me: but its for cannabis? Weed industry: Yes why we charged you double! Me: wow no germination after paying 20 bucks for seeds? Industry: They are all stoners, they won't notice.... Me: but this bong is made from toxic plastics? Headshop: yeas but it has this crumbling image of a leaf, 20 dollar! Can they get their shit together? For god's sake, I've seen crack dealers with better PR and customer care. Someone do sumtin, take us out of the car boot era please?

Sticky beast is waiting for some good sunrays so she can break out of my garden!!😎👏👏👏 Garden is smelling real sweet too, thanks to her 😵👌 I love her structure, i have topped her, but LST was not that necessary.. only defoliation, a lil bit.. i love that bc i hate LST, (im not that good in it..😳) She turned out great, she grew open and wide.. just by herself. 😇👍(maybe also becouse i let her dance in the wind 😎 and move her around a lot) Lots of bad weather this week(cold and wet, she is in greenhouse a lot).. but luckily her buds are still healthy👌 And dont forget: FOR ALL MY GROWBRETHREN/SISTREN IS A DISCOUNT CODE: ZAMMIGD2023 happy growing for all ✊

Hola y bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana, la semana de corte está aquí después de 15 semanas desde semilla y 10 de floración, esta es una cepa auto floreciente con dominancia sativa que no ha defraudado.💁‍♂️🌲 He cultivado esta planta con atención y esmero, ataduras LST en las ramas y el tallo, en una maceta air-pot de 6l, con una mezcla de sustratos ligeros y minerales, sustrato activado con microbiología autóctona recogida en los bosques vírgenes de mi región y la he regado siempre con agua estructurada de manantial de montaña. La he alimentado con macro y micro nutrientes solubles, creados con fermentados anaeróbicos e hidrolizados propios, creados con Microbiología, elementos orgánicos y minerales, mantengo mucha y buena luz en las carpas de cultivo, cultivo esta planta con 10h de luz interior, más otras 10 horas de luz exterior y cuatro de sueño, esta planta siempre ha usado sombrero (mulch), con mucha materia seca para dar de comer a la microbiología y mantener niveles de humedad óptimos en superficie, para facilitar la creación de raíces adventicias desde el primer centímetro de tierra.... 💧🌞👨‍🌾 todo para conseguir un pastel de bodas, digno de reyes! 🤴👸 Pensaba que el cultivo podía durar una semana más, pero en los últimos días la planta mostró que estaba madura, no he querido esperar más, pues necesitaba el ESPACIO para reorganizar mis carpas de cara a la nueva temporada de cultivos, que comenzaré en otoño, y mucho TIEMPO libre este verano para perderlo porro a porro! 🤷‍♂️ - Esta planta con dominancia sativa, y se notaba mucho por el grosor de las hojas, no se ha visto afectada por la araña roja que en mayor o menor medida ha atacado a todos mis otros cultivos, ha demostrado mucha resistencia! 🌲 - Las colas son enormes, densas y pegajosas, con muchas hojas de azúcar, el olor es apestoso, ha sido la cepa auto floreciente con el aroma más intenso, olores a menta, bosque y frutas ácidas. - He tenido poco desperdicio después de hacerle la manicura a los cogollos, va a ser una producción decente, contando la pequeña maceta y el tiempo de cultivo. - Como me ocurre con frecuencia la etapa de floración se ha alargado bastante con respecto a las indicaciones del productor, pero como estoy acostumbrado a foto periódicas se me ha hecho un tiempo de cultivo corto. Actualmente la planta está en proceso de secado, con humedad y temperatura controladas, en una semana la pasaré a los botes de curado y en ese momento fumaré los primeros porros para hacer la valoración avanzada de la cosecha. A falta de probar el resultado de las 3 cepas auto florecientes que he cortado esta semana, creo que voy a reservar este tipo de cepas para cultivarlas a principios de Abril, y así aprovechar las horas de luz exterior, con el fin de ahorrar costes de producción, pues estas cepas necesitan muchas horas de luz para conseguir una producción decente y cada vez está más cara la factura de la luz eléctrica. Hasta la cosecha... SALUDOS A TODOS Y GRACIAS POR LEERME!! 🌈 ================================= 🙄☮️👇🙏👌🤛👍👉👉👉❤️💜❤️👈👈👈🤜👌🙏👇☮️🤩🖐️🏻 =================================
