Great growth from all the girls this week. Stretched massively. I have done a major defoliation to let more light to bud sights. 95% flowers are in light now. I will do another Small defoliation next week. Dry amended top soil with bat guano, worm castings and bio life. Should be enough to bring them into mid flower. I had a slight fungus knat issue but got some nematodes and they are starting to clear along with sticky traps. I have also taken cuttings from a few of the girls to cross a few of the stronger strains and create my own strain. First time I will be doing this so excited to see how it turns out.

So the grow cycle was pretty easy. I work away from home and I sometimes have to leave for 4 days in a row. Before I'd leave for the four days I'd just add 4-6 cups of RO water with some Cal-Mag. When I can back she was always bigger and didn't have any problems. I was lazy this time and never checked the PH of the water. This strain is pretty resilient so props to sweet seeds. I decided not to LST this plant, it was a little taller than I wanted but grew in a nice shape. I still cant believe how purple this strain is. I started to get foxtailing on the top bud not sure what would cause that. Once again sorry for the lack of pictures. I'll let you know the smoke report later.

Day 8 we have one girl looking like she won’t make it :( but other then that all is good Day 9 girls got a cup of veg nuts for the first time so far so good Day 10 girls are showing signs of burn to much to soon will back off of the nuts Day 11 girls got flushed with ph water today all looks good Day 12 growing so good Day 13 girls got a little water today

🌸 Week 7 – Gorilla Cookies Auto Pheno Hunt Another week has passed and flowering is now in full swing across all 6 phenos 👀🔥 The differences between the plants continue to grow, and it’s becoming easier to see which phenos have the potential to become real standouts by harvest time. 📈 Current observations: Pheno #1 and #6 have finally started to catch up and are now slowly building buds as well 🌸 Pheno #5 continues to dominate the tent and has stretched to an impressive 130 cm The flower development on Pheno #5 is especially promising, with some bud sites already suggesting the potential for 25 cm+ colas if everything continues as planned 🔥 Pheno #2 and #6 are being overshadowed by the larger phenos and are clearly falling behind in overall size and vigor The structural differences between the phenos are now more obvious than ever, with some focusing on height while others remain more compact and bushy 💡 Environment & setup: The grow has now reached its current limits in terms of space and lighting: Light fixture raised to its maximum height Light intensity increased to 80% Summer temperatures pushing the tent up to around 32°C ☀️ Relative humidity averaging around 67% Despite the higher temperatures, the plants are still pushing forward and stacking flowers nicely. The next few weeks will be all about bud development, density, and resin production. 🏆 At the moment, Pheno #5 is definitely demanding attention, but there is still plenty of time for surprises. Sometimes the biggest plant doesn't end up being the best one, and that's exactly what makes a pheno hunt so exciting. 💬 Which pheno do you think will come out on top when harvest day arrives?

Que hay familia, nuestras única variedad con predominancia sativa, bastante vigorosa, flores bastante compactas vemos como van formándose y engordando, desprenden un aroma bastante dulce me recuerda al regaliz rojo. Humedad y temperatura controladas dentro de los parámetros.

First week with drip system.

Mar 15: Looking good, keeping rh down has proven difficult with 3 in a 2x3x4ft box, blasting intake and exhaust with 2 fans inside. Otherwise good, did a 1/4 feed to use up stores and salts. Mar 16: Looking good, dialed back in RH, Temp lowered a couple degrees, no oscillating fan so I adjust the position every day. Want to start using MonsterBloom for some fat buds but don't wanna start too early. Also need info if incorporating run-off feeds is necessary if i do occasional 1/4 dose feeds. Slowly dialing back grow nutrients, and upping bloom. New light has made 100X difference. Mar 18th: Will be increasing of volume per feed over the next week to 1 - 1.2L per plant, or until I get 10% run-off. keeping concentration of feed around 800ppm, No signs of deficiencies or toxicities yet, though colour of leaves may be a tad dark, no signs of slowed growth. Increased PPFD to 750 - 940 at the top of the canopy. Mar 21: Going to start counting days not weeks, its been 36 days since they popped, so just over 5 weeks now, I was a bit ahead. Explosive growth, still playing the "increase volume of feed until I get 10-15% runoff" game, at 1L now, will up to 1.25L for todays feed. decreasing FloraGro by .5ml/gal every feed till I get to 1 - 1.5mL/gal. increasing FloraBloom by .5mL/gal every feed till I get to 7 - 7.5mL/gal, or until I see P or K toxicity, whatever comes first. That being said if I get runoff today and its 300 ppm over input, i will flush with a mild feed until I get proper output/input ppm ratio. PLEASE, IF YOU ARE READING THIS, IF YOU SEE ME DOING SOMETHING WRONG, OR IF THERE IS A BETTER WAY, COMMENT OR DM ME 😭😂💪

D68 (28/01/2021): First official day of week 6 in bloom and first official day (second in reality) of pre harvest flush. The smell is strong when I open the tent! It does not take long for the whole room to smell dank and even outside the room. - temp: 24-25C light ON ; 20-22C light OFF - no water - RH: 49-52% light ON ; 49-50% light OFF D69 (29/01/2021): I did a first proper flush today by running approximately 2.5 gallons of water trough the medium. There is still a lot of nutrients in the medium. I might do the exact same flush tomorrow. The PH of the run off is high (around PH7-7.1). This is an other reason to flush again tomorrow. I also reduced the light ON schedule by two hours. So now 18h hours ON and 6 hours OFF. I will continue reducing the ON period until they are ready for a complete dark period. I also try to reduce the air temperature. - temp: 24-25C light ON ; 19-20C light OFF - water: PH6.4, 135PPM, 2.5 gallons each - run off: PH7 and 680PPM for Glue Gelato ; PH7.1 and 560PPM for Banana Kush - RH: 47% light ON ; 48-53% light OFF D70 (30/01/2021): I did a second flush since I was not satisfied with run off PPM of yesterday. Today, the run off PPM is under 300 which is what I wanted. The run off PH is still high with 7.1. Banana Kush is ripening with the pistils slowly turning brown. Glue Gelato look sooooo yummy and I can't wait to harvest it. There is a small color change in some leaves but I'm expecting more in the next days. - temp: 23-24C light ON ; 19C light OFF - water: PH6.4, 125PPM, 2.5 gallons each - run off: PH7.1 and 260PPM for Glue Gelato ; PH7.1 and 250PPM for Banana Kush - RH: 46% light ON ; 46-48% light OFF D71 (31/01/2021): Glue Gelato is changing color. I'm checking trichomes everyday on both girls and no amber yet. - temp: 23-24C light ON ; 19C light OFF - no water - RH: 45% light ON ; 49-50% light OFF D72 (01/02/2021): Well well well...the clock is ticking for those girls. Glue Gelato is now having a couple of amber trichomes. Banana Kush don't have any. Overall Banana Kush has less trichomes and fluffier buds. This girls is not ready yet but I will need to chop her down at the same time has the Glue Gelato because my drying space is the tent I'm growing in. I will try to push the Banana Kush to ripen faster by lifting up the lamp at 16 inches from top bud and by reducing of 2 hours the day period for a 16 hours light ON and 8 hours light OFF. But at least all Banana Kush trichomes looks milky. - temp: 23-24C light ON ; 18-19C light OFF - water: PH6.2, 123PPM, less then a gallon each - run off: PH7.4 and 200PPM for Glue Gelato ; PH7.4 and 287PPM for Banana Kush - RH: 45% light ON ; 40-45% light OFF D73 (02/02/2021): I gave water probably for the last time today. Trichomes on Glue Gelato are starting to amber on top buds. Not a lot of amber but you can see that all the trichomes are starting to degrade by curling down slowly. Trichomes on Banana Kush are not amber at all but they all look milky. Glue Gelato is ready to harvest but Banana Kush need more time. It's tough to make a decision to chop or not since they are not at the same stage of growth. I want to place them in a complete 48 hours of darkness before harvest. 1h less light today for a 15h light ON and 9h light OFF. The lamps are now at 20 inches. - temp: 23-24C light ON ; 18-19C light OFF - water: less then a gallon each - RH: 45% light ON ; 40-45% light OFF D74 (03/02/2021): Glue Gelato is ready for 48h of darkness. I will take her out of the tent and place her in an other room without light. I will try to maintain a proper environment in this room and if it smells to strong or if the condition are not good I will replace her in the tent and both will start the 48h darkness. The idea is to give Banana Kush 2 more days to ripe and swoll more. After 48h, I will chop Glue Gelato and place her in the tent to start drying. Banana Kush will then start her 48h darkness. I don't know if this strategy is good but I will monitor everything closely and react if something is wrong. - temp: 22-23C light ON ; 19C light OFF - no water - RH: 47% light ON ; 43-45% light OFF

11/6 Monday. She’s very very dry today. I’m gonna do 96 ounces of water she’ll take all that and I’m gonna do the medium feeding schedule and I’m gonna go with the bloom tastic I’m gonna do two mils per gallon. 11/7 after the water last night she did really good, but because I did not top her at the fourth node, I usually do. I just tied the branches back with those plastic clips I need to defoliate there’s way too much underneath I’ve never had this kind of growth before so I have to go and trim out some of the non-functioning branches and some of the bigger leaves to get some airflow and light to the bottom. She’s really great I’m super surprised last time I had bad Soil and this time I have some bugs but I’ve sprayed for them and she’s responding well I also gave that bloom hardener sooner than I should’ve but she’s doing good LST went good 👍 8 hours later she’s responding. Well leaves are starting to reach up again because I lowered the light to 92 W whenever they start pushing down it seems like there’s too much light which also means it’s cooler so it’s just great. I’m glad I got the Mars Hydro lights. They’ve made a huge difference being able to put the driver outside the tent without having to buy any extras. I’ll probably get a fourth one of those eventually. 11/8 Wednesday super early morning I dried some of the little branches. I took off overnight and I’m smoking them right now. I can’t believe it. She is so strong. Her leaves are really starting to wake up. Lowering the light made a huge difference. the light was just too powerful. I keep forgetting that so I turned it down to about 92 W and she’s really waking up today. It’s incredible and I’m a little bit dizzy. It’s a little stronger than I thought. This is one of my best ones. I really like this. 👍👍👍 11/8 PM I turned the light up 5 W. It made a pretty good difference and I raised it up about 2 inches to get a little more light spread. I did another unexpected watering today. She was completely dry so I did a full gallon. I mean 96 ounces with half gallon measured out nutrients, I had some weird issues with my water. I hope it doesn’t affect the plants. I boiled my water and I look at the top of it and lots of small particles floating on the top of the water & the bottom of the pan has something brown burned onto it. Very weird. 11/9 👍👍👍🤩 11/10 I did another watering using 96 ounces this morning. She is growing like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Last time I topped her between the third and fourth node to keep her small and I did it way too soon. I was experimenting so her main stem was really thin and this time is one of the thickest ones I’ve had, so she clearly does not like being topped and now she’s growing into a beautiful monster it’s just great is probably one of my best grows 11/11 her buds really seemed to swell overnight after the defoliation and the feeding. Lowering the lights wattage as helped I’m just going to leave her alone today, but wow.🤩 She had a really good day. I did a little extra tying down of some branches. I didn’t takeoff early any leaves just one or two let her heal a lot from trimming yesterday she doing great probably my best grow ever and the first time that I’ve just used tying the branches down instead of topping much better result for this plant. 11/12 Sunday end of the week. She has been phenomenal this week and her buds are really starting to swell. Now I have to spray for bugs. I think that the soil bugs are eating at the roots whenever I spray at the bottom of the bag I immediately could results so there’s something in the soil I’m competing with, but she is the best girl I’ve ever had. You can get up to nine free seats if you buy the right thing on seedsman and so I stocked up on these critical pluses now I know how big they get. I’m gonna keep growing these and they smell so good .

7 more days till chop down

Flowering day 49 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone 😀. Another wonderful week goes by 👍. Both phenotypes are developing very well 😀. This week, 1 g enhancer per liter of water was added. That was the last time since they will be flushed next week :-). The trichomes are 60: milky, 10% amber and 30% clear. I think the harvest will take place in 12-17 days 👍. I'm very curious which phenotype tastes better in the end 😍 since both smell very tasty ☺️. I wish you all the best until the next update 👍 stay healthy and let it grow 🍀 You can buy this Strain at : https://sweetseeds.es/de/sweet-skunk-f1-fast-version/ Type: Sweet Skunk F1 Fast Version ☝️🏼 Genetics: Sweet Skunk Auto (SWS34) X Early Skunk 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

Leave's edges have turned yellow and it was fed with a good amount of 6.5 ph water to give her a break. Watered for second time this week with just 6.5 ph water.

Seems to BE alright so far. Banana Kush plants are Like 1-2 ahead of the Skunk XL I guess.

very nice harvest, can't wait to see the final weight one dried but they are really dense so don't expect them to shrink too much. 688.2 grams of wet flower (no big stems) and 100.6 grams of useable trim.

10 days dry and bagged for curing. Sampled a little, the high is very heavy. Definitely growing again

Looks like this might be the last week for this girl. Was hoping to see more change in tricomes but not sure if worth the wait. Give it a few more days and see what the loop says.

After the PK boost last week the OG's are getting fatter, we only have some week to go so i will stop giving nutrients during this week! At the moment im happy with this strain, a very nice smell and good production, of course i need to see the final outcome but at the moment im quite happy 😁
