Well these beauties are stood at a whopping 42" and are now working on their flowers in full effect! I'm quite sure at this point all these clones are the same strain of sugar bomb punch 😁 so ending up with the favourite in their! She reminds me of runtz muffin because of the orange punch in her genetics!

Increased CO2 slightly to keep above 1200PPM. Also slightly adjusted A/C schedule to bring temps up to 78F-80F during lights on and 66F lights off. Turned humidity down slightly to keep it closer 50%. * Topped off reservoir to ~20-gallons. ** CalMag+ - 5ML per gallon ** Mills Nutrients Vitalize - 0.5ML per Gallon ** Mills Nutrients Basis A - 15ML per Gallon ** Mills Nutrients Basis B - 15ML per Gallon ** Mills Nutrients Start-R - 4ML per Gallon ** H2O2 - 10ML per gallon ** 1.25ML PHup per gallon Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 9:30PM * 2.50 EC * 5.8 PH * 69.26F * ~20 gallons * Topped off to ~20-gallons Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars Off 24-hours Air control: 69F-75F (75F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 45%-60% (59% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60% RH (Lights Off) ~1274PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~680PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 42 - March 23, 2021 Yesterday evening modified CO2 and Temperature settings in the room. CO2 has consistently been between 1200-1300 ppm with temps ramping up to 81F during lots on today. (Using scheduler with A/C to gradually increase temps when lights first come on and decrease them last couple hours before lights off). Girls seem to be liking it. Can see signficant difference in growth since yesterday. Last week, before modifying resevoir to DTW config, I noticed what looked like could be Zinc / Iron deficiency mainly in F7 (maybe mag, not 100% sure). It was only impacting newest growth with yellowing in the leaves. Don't believe it has spread to new leaves, but as leaves get larger definitely looks more obvious. Continuing to monitor and watch for any further advancement of issue.

Week 9 Update — Gorilla Zkittlez (Flowering Progress) Dates: 11/17–11/20 Medium: Coco Water Source: RO Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms ⸻ 🌱 Feeding & Dry-Back Strategy This week she only received two feedings as I’m pushing a longer dry back to strengthen the root zone and slow vertical growth. 🗓️ 11/17 & 11/20 Feeding (1 gal each) • 4 ml Green Sensation – PK booster to enhance flower density and terp production • 0.5 ml Silicium Bloom – Adds structural strength, helps the plant handle high-intensity light • 14 ml Coco A – Base nutrient providing nitrogen + essential micros • 18 ml Coco B – Boosts phosphorus & potassium for flowering development • 4 ml Pure Zym – Enzymes that break down dead root mass & improve nutrient uptake • 8 ml Royal Rush – Metabolic stimulant for increased vigor and resin output • 5 ml Ruby Fulvic – Improves nutrient absorption & overall plant energy • pH: 5.8 • PPM: ~1300 ⸻ 💡 Light & Canopy Management She stretched harder than expected late into Week 9 and grew too close to the light. I had to raise the fixture, but I’m officially out of headroom — the light can’t go any higher. • Light was raised as high as possible • Canopy now sits just below the fixture • Watching closely for light stress or foxtailing Despite this, she’s handling the intensity surprisingly well. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Structure & Health She’s built like a monster this week: • Extremely thick main stalk — easily one of the thickest of the run • Lateral branches are sturdy and holding weight well • No signs of nutrient burn even with 1300ppm • Dry-back is helping keep internodes tight and reduce stretch I’m genuinely impressed with how thick the trunk got — she’s built for heavy buds. ⸻ 📸 Overall Impression Gorilla Zkittlez is stacking nicely as Week 9 wraps up. Flowers are continuing to swell, the plant is still drinking steadily even with reduced feedings, and structure is strong enough to support chunky buds without additional stakes yet.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cuarta semana de floración de estas Barcelona Puff feminizadas de Seedstockers. Vamos al lío ,se trasplantaron en macetas de 7 litros definitivamente. El ph se controla en 6.0 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 25/21 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 80% de potencia. De momento van creciendo a buen ritmo y tienen un buen color, la flor ya empezó a formarse y a tricomar, por el momento bien. Comentar de nuevo el estrés hídrico a sido superado de momento todo bien. Agradecer a Agrobeta por el envío del kit gold series para la temporada 🙏. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Week 8!After a rainy week and a half with some sunlight and alot of clouds and 20 degrees celsius the girls look like this. For the coming week we have more sun so they are going to love it. Cheers! Once again to little sunlight these past few days and it is going to rain this weekend so that's a bummer. Hopefully its getting sunnier Cheers!

Hola cultivadores 🌊🌊🏄‍♂️ Una semana más ha pasado para esta chica, su primer semana asomándose a conocer el mundo real, donde los calores le dan duro pero se resiste abrazando al sol, apuntando con sus hojas al cielo. Así la encontré hoy, bajo el domo que usamos para mantener un ambiente húmedo y darle a sus raíces la posibilidad de expandirse entre el aireado sustrato. 💦♻️ El suelo parece estar bastante bien, cada vez que entierro los palillos chinos a partir de unos 4 cm por debajo de la superficie se mantiene húmedo pero no abundante. Sólo recibe 1 litro de agua cada dos días con una dosis de MicroVita®️ y algunas heces de cabra No mucho más que decir, solo que deseo ver ese fenotipo de duckfoot para disfrutarla en mi terraza, donde recibe aprox 7 horas de luz directa y otras 8 indirectamente. Intentaré no alimentar con minerales hasta la cuarta semana de floración ya que he planificado el sustrato 🤞🌱 Smokin' love Un saludo grande a esos seres que siempre están por ahí, haciendo crecer el mundo!

Plant fading and changing colour nicely. Day 77 Trichomes are still milky or clear. Waiting for the first signs of amber Trichomes, at which point I plan to harvest. Day 77 might be the plants last watering depending on the Trichomes in the next few days.

The first picture day 44! Well, we've finally got the purple colours coming in very strongly! Even the fan leaves are turning purple. The progression of the pigment looks like a pathogen has taken over but it's just the cool genetics of this plant. Smell is increasing, they have a very sweet odor so far when crushing the flowers. Still nowhere near harvest but the buds and calyxes are starting to stack. Very exciting that I got this one to grow!

The plant is ready to flower. I covered the soil with inputs and did a little defoliation. It is developing well.

Boy she has been through a lot but it doesnt slow her down she pushes on . The tent set up was so off that she just took a huge hit and is just getting better now and starting upwards growth again .. The genetics are good but I'm stressing this baby out the last two weeks and looking forward to her future growth and success ..cheers family
