7/30/23 - Day 48 - OK, so last I posted, I have been waiting to see how tall she grows. She does not seem to be stopping her growth I'm going to try some super cropping. I've never done this before, but it honestly does not seem like a bad thing. Hurt the plant a little, and the response should be more THC. The reason for hurting the plant is so that you can bend the plant as you need it. She's sleeping now, but when she wakes up, ill take a look and possibly start to super crop. Currently, I am working on implementing the auto water feature of the LEAF Grow system, which is quite convenient to set up. All it requires is to hook it up to a standard hose outlet, saving you time and effort. By using Reverse Osmosis (RO) water instead of tap water, I can ensure a controlled and optimal environment for my plants. Tap water contains various additives like copper, zinc, and chlorine, which can't be measured precisely and might affect plant growth. In a successful grow operation, every aspect needs careful control, and water is of utmost importance. RO water, with its near-zero ppm, ensures that there are no unwanted additives, offering the best conditions for plant development. Although RO water is not produced under pressure, I've found a suitable solution to address this concern. To achieve the required pressure for the LEAF unit, which is rated for 30 - 80 PSI, I've researched and discovered that a sump pump would work perfectly in this setup. This pump adds the necessary 30 PSI to the water line as it is drawn from the inlet, eliminating the need to pressurize a bottle or container, thus avoiding potential hazards associated with excessive pressure. I'll be documenting my progress with pictures as I set up this system, and I can't wait to witness the auto water feature in action, saving me from the hassle of manually adding water. Super Crop: I did about half of the plant in a Super Crop today. Meaning I damaged the branches enough to bend them. The plant will work overtime to fix them, but also, the Resin and THC will be surging through the plant in a rush to be more defensive against what it more than likely a predator eating it. I did my best to make the branches pliable. I think I did a good job. I was so scared that I was going to snap them.... and I did; on a couple, they split up the side. So I grabbed my duct tape and added a bandaid. I have been worried sick about how she would handle all the destruction. After about 3 hrs, I saw that all the Super Cropped branches were already reaching back up. This is a great sign that the plant is doing well and that all the branches I was sure were to fall off are thriving. Again I think this box is magic. The topping didn't stunt any growth, trimming a 3-gallon bucket full of leaves 1st week into flower didn't stunt any growth, and Super Cropping 2 weeks into flowering seems to be thriving. I'm going to get to experiment with this LEAF box on all kinds of strains. The possibilities are endless. Just one theory I want to try, Purple. I want to grow a strain known for its purple, and I want to grow it a few times, each time growing it colder and colder to document and show how cold might affect the purple color like we have all read and heard about. These are the kinds of things that I think about and why I choose LEAF. Ill be back to update tomorrow morning. 8/1/23 - Day 50 - I updated some of the pictures. Flowering is going well. Every day the water is less, and the buds are bigger! I scoped out some of the buds already. Now we just wait. i have a water change coming up in a few days. As always ill add some more pics as we go along. If you are looking for this experience, check out https://www.getleaf.co/

When buds are this heavy and this compact, trimming goes fast and smooth exactly the way I like it. As for bud size… I’d say ostrich egg level

So, starting this week off with some TOP-ing news. The girls were topped, but only 5/7. 1x Purple Punch and 4x Honey Cream. The two Triple G's and one Purple Queen are struggling a bit with growth. I don't know what's wrong with them, because the other are growing like crazy. And those 3, eh, I don't know. If you know what could be causing the restricted growth, hit me up or leave a comment down below. 🙏🏻😁 I will apply a foliar spray with Green Explosion from TOP CROP and add some humic and fulvic acid to boost the root development and to kickstart the photosynthesis. So they start to eat 💪🏻😁 Rather than that, no other problems are present. The temp. is a bit high, 30⁰C but they are taking it like champs. Silica really does work wonders. 😅🙏🏻 I applied a full 3L feed for each plant, so the soil gets all wet through and plants can start growing new root shots. More roots, more fruits. 🌱 I'm planing on vegging them for 2-3 more weeks, so in total 5-6 weeks in vegetation. They have to come back from the shock that was caused by Topping. Every plant has around 6-8 new shots as you can see from the pictures. And this means more main "stems" or better to say more bud sites. 😎 I changed the MH bulb from 250W to 400W and will increase the wattage further to 600W in 2 weeks. They need more light. 😁☀️💡 Technical upgrade: 🎥 I bought a WiFi security camera. 😁 The thing is awesome. 😧 I can check the temp. any time and see the girls any time from anywhere on my phone. And I payed only 25€ for it 🤷🏻 It's a 1080P, 360⁰ camera. Any one should invest in some gadgets that make their job easier. 💪🏻 Ending this week with a smile 😉

Welcome Back!💚 Die Sleepy Joe befindet sich nun in der achten und finalen Blütewoche und die Blütenbildung entwickelt sich wunderbar. Die Trichome sind fast alle samt milchig. Kommende Woche wird das Erntedankfest eingeleitet. Der Geruch hat sich auch nochmal stark intensiviert. Aktuell kommen starke Nuancen von süsslicheren düften, kombiniert mit Lösungsmittel oder ähnlichem hervor. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind aufgrund des nassen Wetters etwas anders. ————— 🌞 Temp: 24°C 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💦 RH: 56% 💨 VPD: 0,98 kPa 😎 PPFD: 830 mqm ————— Grüne Grüße 🥦

Perfect conditions this week led to some great bud development. The larger of the two I left alone but the other I cleaned up the bottom.

Almost done

ok so i have now switched these babies from 18/6 to 12/12 so officially now on there first week of flower will keep u updated with pics and vids of the grow and its progress

Segunda semana y comienzan a tener cada día más fuerza mis pequeñas hermosas, en el próximo riego ya comenzarán a alimentarce para su vegetacion

Willkommen zu meinem Growbericht der Gorilla Cookies Auto von 2Fast4Buds. Der Strain wurde 2022 zur besten Indica beim Autoflower World Cup gewählt. Laut FastBuds deren meistverkaufter Strain. Grund genug, den Strain zu testen. Ganz Aktuell wurde die Gorilla Cookies Auto von 2Fast4Buds hier bei den Grow Awards 2026 in der Kategorie Best Strain auf Platz 3 und in der Kategorie Best Autoflowering Strain auf Platz 1 gewählt. Das macht mich noch neugieriger... Für den Grow verwende ich 15 Liter ROOTiES Stofftöpfe. Ich war sehr zufrieden mit der Sonnenerde, deshalb habe ich nachbestellt. Sonnenerde hat seine Mischung für die Bio Hanferde letzten Oktober/November geändert. Jetzt sind da kleine Tonkügelchen drin und kleine Gipsstückchen. Laut Sonnenerde soll das die Erde luftiger machen. Auf den Fotos kann man die unterschiedlichen Mischungen gut erkennen. In den AirPots ist die alte Sonnenerde, in den Stofftöpfen die neue. So kann man das Wachstum in den verschiedenen Erden schön vergleichen. Die Smart Start Plugs von zamnesia hab ich wieder verwendet. Tag 72: 1,5 Liter Wasser. Tag 75: Die Gorilla Cookies Auto von 2Fast4Buds bekommt 1,0 Liter Wasser. Im Growroom riecht es sehr stark sehr süß, ich weiß nicht, von welcher Lady das kommt, gefühlt riechen alle. Deshalb bei allen: Geruch ist stark. Tag 77: 1,0 Liter Wasser. Schön, das du dir meinen Bericht ansiehst. Schau gerne wieder rein 👋😎

La signorina comincia a mostrare molti boccioli . La cola principale emette un buon odore di fragola con un retrogusto di agrumi non vedo l'ora di fumarla 😍. Ora speriamo con il nuovo led come si comporterà a 3 giorni dal cambio ha come accelerato lo sviluppo . Aspettiamo e vediamo che succede Dajeforte growers 💪💪

Seems like all is in order. I had to go away for a week because of an emergency and luckily a friend looked after them, only thing he wasn’t sharp on was training and defoliating which is why it got so big and bushy last week. Still no nutrient deficiencies. I visited a website called cannastats a month ago and it actually breaks down ppm requirements for each element. Was a lot of work to get my spreadsheet to calculate properly, but really seems to be working. If anyone wants further details on this, feel free to DM me. I think the big stretch last week was caused by high temps, as a window was left shut when it shouldn’t have been, and also the light wasn’t in the middle because my friend moved the lights up and didn’t realise, so the colas at the back stretched more... that’s my theory anyway. Overall all is good, switch back to 3200k bulbs again today. Need a wide angle lenses to take a photo of this thing, she’s huge...

Beautiful pheno the one that I have right here, I didn't expect to see such a great pheno of Jack orange, the buds are very dense already, it's not the strongest smelling plant in this run however she has a very unique and different smell, you can feel some citric tones mixed with sweet flowery notes, it's really weird in a good way, stay tuned to see how this lady performs until the end!! 💚❤️💛👨‍🌾

I love this strain definitely more of the ak coming out in her LOVE IT Remember nerds It’s 420 somewhere
