Overall, this is 9th week of flower for the entire F'22 grow season. With French Macaron beginning week 7 flower and Afgooey #1 and #2 in mid-week 5 of flower. The Afgooey #3 is just starting to form tiny budlets after an extensive defoliation as she's squatty with lots of foliage. Updates & Observations - a lot of maintenance this week from continual ph'ing and flushing as Afgooey #2 has joined the French Macaron with low ph runoff readings. Given I'm growing in a living soil mix with periodic top dressings and teas every 7-10 days, I'm stumped. So, no more feedings for the French Macaron until harvest. Decided that next watering I will flush both girls with fresh rain water captured/stored which I have stored outside in 30 gallon barrels. Rain water tested at 7.2 ph, which to me is good enough for the flushing. It's raining for 3-4 days next week, so this will exhaust existing supply and replace with fresh rain water. Perfect timing. Will update next week.

Purple lemonade just started flowering and will be switched to 12 /12 this week. She’s smaller than we thought she would be but we are making the most of her by LST her

Still HOT and Sunny with no end in sight. Noticing that pre-flower stretch over the last week, she's towering over me now well over 7 feet tall. Nothing but drip every 5 days and she's thriving. Still amazed in this heat she can go that long without water. Raspberries are plentiful this year, watermelon's coming in beside her and my favorite Himalayan blackberry's are next in the back. Invasive maybe, but an absolute island favorite I've managed to tame.

Day 49 flowering: Hi all , I hope your all well and healthy. I think I have made a few miscalculation errors of flowering weeks here.lol I began timing their flowering period a little later than had been flowering I think. Seeing how advanced the #2 has been the entire grow followed very closely by the #1 , and adding the natural fading and leaves dying off that is very obvious too , these are very near their ripen time. looking back over the diary to when I began timing , the buds are fairly well in process so must have begun earlier but I missed the switch with the other seedling dramas I had going on at the time. oops. I am using the time line to keep the other Gorilla girl (#4) and the switch cheese at least on track timing wise ( sort of .lol) I expect the #2 girl will be ready within 2 weeks now but will show as an early harvest on the days. I have added the Shogun Dragon Force into their feed now for a week ( 2 more feeds at least) and then its a mild feeding of the Megacrop till finish. I do love their products and have been impressed by the dragon forces result on trichs. These Darker Gorilla (#2 +#4) girls are so trich laden already and very tacky to touch with a beautiful fruity smell pushing out too. The pictures just don't compare to the live and direct context with these buds but I tried to catch their best anyway. I haven't seen any pictures on sweets seeds grows of gorilla girls that are this dark purple at all and their examples are more akin to the #1 and #3 i have . I live them appearance of the dark phenos and a sure fire selling point for them ?. @sweetseeds ?. you seen these beautiful girls guys ?. With that said the younger ladies are also doing brilliantly with the #4 starting to swell and frost up similar to her older sister#2. Her structure was set slightly looser than the other 3 to see how it altered their bud production compared. She has wider node gaps that have their own clusters with them and she has grown taller from less ties obviously but , it also created a more airy frame for the density of the buds which is a bonus in a smaller environment. I don't feel as worried about bud rot with her as I do the other 3. I plan to brutal defol one of the next autos being run to see how this affects the final result. using the same strains should be a fair comparison. The Sweet cheese has also allowed me to satisfy my curiosity and try a natural untouched grow. She has some beautiful coloured on her tight single stemmed main and the side branching is attempting to keep up with the main but nowhere near as productive . while she is a capable height , i prefer the L.S.T for shape and working on so far. Being so hands off is a new one for me too.lol Her diesel smell is really evident now and even the lowers are getting a nice chalky appearance of trichs hiding the pink hues she has going on all over. Inhave enjoyed this grow with the sweet girls and only wish I hadn't lost so many of the other strains so early on. A breeder to re visit without doubt. enjoy the pics and video folks . keep well and loved ..

All the ladies bounced back from the little stress at the transition. They are all charging. On 9.11 I’ve increased the light from 600 to 660w. We will see tomorrow how they handle it.

First week of flowering on a 12/12 cycle with explosive growth. Defoliated lower 7-14 inches of plants and nipped future larf buds. Top dressed with 2tsp of kelp meal this week. Next week will be worm castings (top dressed) and the following week with bloom nutrients. Gave it a good soaking with calmagged water and Mammoth microbials. California Light work's Solar Extreme 250 around 10" above the canopy. All is well! 💚

These girls are super sticky! Resin is building up all over the place, including the leaves. I've been defoliating like crazy but they just keep coming back.

These are clones that I managed to take from my summer garden that became a disaster due to a heat wave that we had breaking 100 year records. I expect everything to be 48” in height at maturity.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. It was a good week for the ladies, all the toppings are complete, and now I am just focusing on some LST to try and keep all 8 tops level on all the ladies. Today is day 42 and I just removed the milk crates that all of the ladies were sitting on to give them more vertical space. I am still feeding GH nutrients, silica, cal mag, and maxi grow. I will transition to flower nutrients approximately one week after flipping to flower. I have found that it is important to continue feeding plenty of Nitrogen through the stretch. The only way I would transition sooner is if I was running out of vertical space. Still very happy with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 69% and the plants seem very happy and healthy. The heat and humidity are finally letting up in my region so it is nice to be able to open some windows and drop the temp outside the grow tent. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Siamo arrivati alla terza settimana di fioritura. Tutto procede bene. Si incomincia a sentire il suo leggero odore. Mi piace davvero tanto. Penso che la prossima volta ne farò 4 in cocco. Grazie a tutti che mi seguite

good morning friends with green thumbs..the nepal enters the 11th week and turns 86 days after its germination ... despite the rainy and cold weather in May as it hadn't happened for 20 years (I will probably change the title of my diary 😆), flowering continues despite the low sun and temperatures below 20 degrees. we hope that in the next week and in this the temperatures will rise and the sun returns to kiss my seedlings to allow me a good harvest

This week flew by. Work had away from the plants kinda didn’t realize the plant were drinking hella water way faster than before so I fell behind a lil with the watering but nothing to major as you can see. The black cream is jus amazing right now , never smelled anything like it it literally smells like candy. There’s also hells buds all around the plant it’s just shining right now definitely running this strain until the seeds are gone. The Green Poison Auto is coming along nicely even though she took hella long to flower from veg but I’m hoping that means she jus going to keep taking her time and beast up . Her trichomes already flooding the plant which is a bright side I’m also I’m patient to so that’s not helping. For the most part I’m pretty sure I’m going to be running the same medium and nutrient line a couple more times Before I venture out And my AC is finally fixed so no more hot days for the ladies. I’m predict the black cream to go another 2-3weeks and the green poison at least another 4 from what I’m seeing my ladies are taking their time with this one . Can’t wait to see the growth this coming week

Que pasa familia, ya estamos de vuelta, estás skunk huelen una barbaridad 10/10. Ya entramos en la recta final, se ve bien en el color amarillo de las hojas, que la propia planta chupa el alimento. Ph controlado temperatura y humedad están dentro de los parámetros, son una variedad con un porte Indico pero una floración algo más lenta, vaya puntas amigo, esas flores van a estar ricas. La semana que viene os vemos fumetillas, y sobre todo buenos humos.

I didn't get to document this Grow properly due to life with 3 kids and such towards Christmas time... This girl didn't like my nutrients regimen. I think I needed to add some cal/mag once she started flowering. She does a little too fast because I wet triomed her trying to make sure i got all thee burned/dead material, and it gets drier here in winter at around 40-50% humidity. So far she is a decent smoke. I cut her into two sections that seemed more/less ripe, each one yielding 3 oz each.

The plants are looking really healthy, I've been defoliating here and there to get the light to penetrate to the lower leaves and branches. They have started to bush out from topping them last week. I started using Mammoth P Microbes halfway through last week. They seem to have grown a little quicker since adding them. The plants are still being fed 4 times a day at 1 minute each feeding. No signs yet of which is female and male, I am planning on pulling all the males once they show signs.

Saudações. Menina está bem, botões formados e lindos 🤩. Agora esperar e torcer 🤞, para que engordam muito e bem. Ela está ficar com uns tons de roxo 🤩, bem tenho borrifando ela com água de torneira, que tem um ph alto, o alto ph e sua genética deve ficar roxa no final, esperamos para ver. Bem tenho borrifando ela por ter ácaros aranha na sala, tenho mantido praga controlada. Mas ácaros aranha se reproduzem muito rápido, nunca se sabe bem dia de amanhã. Bem por agora tudo controlado, menina não foi afetada. Espero manter limpa até ao fim, 🤞 torcer para que tudo corra bem. Visite Dutch Passion conheça suas novidades e promoções.
