Aug 17: great plant. Hit 30 C today, and there was a two minute hail storm late in the day. It sounded very impressive on the roof, but I had moved the pot plants up against the house and they were fine. The rest of the garden took a mild beating.
Aug 18: rained all day.
Aug 20: sunny yesterday and most of today. Watered with some Kekp extract in the evening. Flowering is progressing and we’re still in mid August so things are looking good.
Aug 22: don’t take flash pics of photoperiod plants unless you’re immediately using a 730 nm far red light to put them into dark mode.
Aug 23: looking good for the end of another diary week. This Gorilla Cookies is definitely the fastest flowering of the four plants I’m growing this year.

the colas are very glitery and you see alot of potential
already super frostyhere.
the revegetating Plant looks fine too.

Patience is in fact a virtue.
I tought she was near, but to my surprise, she had a growth explosion, a lot of new calyxes!
I'll wait another week, keeping a close eye.

The gutter hoe grow show powered by the viparspectra XS2000 is moving along. A couple of the plants started showing some nitrogen deficiency early in the week after the water change so I gave them a little maxigro. I'm not sure if the roots are running out of room or what is going on but the nutrient does aren't as efficient in this gutter compared to the dutch buckets. I suprecropped the crescendo to keep it even with the other plants. The cookies has strange looking buds on top. Not many pistils popping on it. Other than that the show will go on.....

An here we are. At the end of another cycle. The end of another year, and what a year it was. For Sunshine and me personally, it was a tough year, with our families sick on multiple occasions, life-threatening. We are very thankful for many things but most of all that all our parents are healthy again.
We wish your families are as fortunate in the coming year.
So we end this Gorilla's life with a swift cut of the scissors, after thanking her again for the companionship, the well-needed distraction, and all the love she has given me already.
I sometimes read that people won't go near their plants when they are angry or sad. Please do go to your plants when you are sad or angry!
They are millions of years old. They have been healers of animals and humans since they were around. Our emotions can not taint something so pure as the spirit of this plant.
She will heal us, give her life for us, sacrifice herself for our healing. She is all-powerful and all-knowing, there is nothing we mere humans can do, except disrespect her powers.
Bask in her glowing light, enjoy her soothing energy, her creative spark when you are in need of love, just don't smoke her at that time, for she will soothe you bit not give her treasures, she will seduce you.
Next to thanking Santa Maria for her healing, we would like to thank our friends here, all who shared their kind words, advice, and attention.
I had made a video to share my thanks on video, but every time I got very emotional. You guys have no idea how tough this year was.
The gorilla is real easy to clean and sticky and cristally. Its amazingly great to smoke!
So a special thanks to: @Sailormoonflowers for being a buddy to talk to, @JamMAKEcan for being there with ideas and always a lot of love, @Roberts for being an inspiration @Cannabeast and @LegendarySeedThumb for always checking out my grows, to all who I forgot who are always here to greet me! @Growdiaries for being an awesome site and community and last but not least: @MarsHydroLED for letting us try their SP-3000.
VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR XXX
We wish all of you freedom, love, happiness, but also the awareness to see many of us are still being repressed, with growing but also with our human rights.
Jah jah gave us life to live, so let us live brothers!
It is time the rastaman made a plan!
We are 99% loving people on this planet, we need no 1% to fuck it up with wars and strife.
We need to stop cooperating, peacefully resist. If you can buy local, ban exploiting multinationals.
Help your local businesses, help your neighbors, we need to wake up and stop funding this black stain on our planet.
Sell your stock in multinationals, invest in local businesses.
Buy local products, speak out when you get taxed higher than millionaires (and you are).
The day is coming my brothers and sisters. Soon a handful of CEO's will find out when billions are done with them.
For now thanks for everything!

Time sure goes by quick, It is already week 6. I sure hope they chunk up near the end :P
Plant "2" has a really strong creamy/doughy smell, plant "1" has like no smell so far.
Moved a clip on fan to blow on the ballast of the LED, and have a oscillating fan down below, which got the temps down a few degrees,
and the plants seem to be enjoying it.
Gave it a top dressing of nutrients last week, so I should not need to add any more, and just keep watering as normal, with a little bit of epsom salt like every 3rd watering.

And the time to Flip this cutie pie to flower mode as came, next week update will already be a flower update, sorry that i am doing her update only on the last week day but a lot as happening and with the update came also the video time-lapse update from the first 9 weeks of her life so far that in my humble opinion were stunning af , dont know about you guys but this one as broth me to my beginner growing and all on her is new to me so far , i mean she is a plant and she is a cannabis plant , but she is also so peculiar and unique that for me she is my freaky kale and i love her 🤩🤩🤩💚💚💚
training this girl as been a delight and she is a tough one, i can already imagine her roots just from the size of her body , she might nt look but she is a kind a big and compact plant , hope that she wont be a tall one , counting one the fast 45 days flower time to keep her short lol lets see
this week i still gave her normal feeding with root booster but starting next week i will change that for my flower booster and start feeding her some extra P , so far the pellet mixed with the soil have done an amazing job but i know that wen in flower mode she will demand more , i will also incrase my PH from 6.2 to 6.5 as for the PPFD she will grow in to whatever number she can get, not moving the TSW or dimming, i will keep it at 100% and am imagining that if she is now running 600 µMol/m2/S she will grow something like 1000 µMol/m2/S lets see how will she grow wen in 11/13 <3 <3 <3
with this said hope you guys enjoy her life so far via the video time-lapse , i will do a flower one in the end as well a full cycle one but for now enjoy the life so far one💚💚💚
oh i still am loving eating her leafs in salads , with fruits or just raw, they are lemon tree flavored with a touch of spicy, love them, added a few photos from a dragon fruit and some leafs
As always thank you all for stopping by , for the love and for it all, i fell blessed to have you all with me for one more love journey, and a different one form the rest i did so far <3 <3 <3 Thank you Thank you Thank you , you guys are great and have been amazing , thank you for everything <3<3<3

RC#1 is in her last couple days. Main stem is starting to tilt with the weight of the buds 🤣 she was flushed yesturday for the final time with around 15 litres of water. Once the pot has dried out she will be swapped into my drying tent and left in darkness for 3 days before the chop. Feel like this day will never come lol. Very excited to try as this is my first ever grow.
RC#2 is starting to swell up but I think she has another 2 weeks in her, she got stunted for a while during week 6-7 so may have set her back a little. Bud sites look great I'm expecting no less than 8oz between the 2 girls, just by what I've sized up already. Well shall see....
18.03.20 (Day64)
Rc#1 has been chopped. Only got a few pics but I'll take them next week once it's all weighed up. RC#2 is starting its flush this week as I think it's only has around a week or so left.

One thing I forgot to mention in my video! I had a lighting timer almost catch fire last night! It was melted and black and when I pulled it out it caught flame very briefly. I went out and bought one that could support double the wattage of my light that minute.
LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE! Be certain that your timer can handle all the wattage you’re pulling through it and then some! DONT BE AN IDIOT AND ALMOST BURN DOWN YOUR HOUSE!!!!!!!

She grew well for the little time I spent with her. She grew fast as upping my room temps a few degrees sped the process up. She has a good smell and I will be back to update on a smoke report in a few months once it is dried, cured, and trimmed. Thank you, Medic Grow, and ILGM. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱

So proper calculation!! It’s exactly 5 weeks today since germination! Been getting cold temperatures during lights out period!! So just introduced a oil heater.. when lights are out now I’m keeping a desk fan running all the time with the carbon filter fan also! Oil heater comes on when lights go out but is only reaching a temperature of 21 degrees which is better than 14-15 that I had been getting without the heater! Still unsure weather I should be putting into flowering stage yet but that’s what I’ve decided to do! Getting bigger leafs still and unsure if to trim? One of my stems did snap as maybe a little to hard on the lst! It’s made the perfect clone tho! So done some research into clonex??? Another topic that’s tricking my brain!! Introduced more light into my grow tent also which is a fan operating 600w led grow light! Not sure if the light I already have and a led one will make a difference as there not the same?? But still they look healthy??

The buds grow and more pistils are turning brown. O.G. Kush top buds which are just under the light are fox-tailing a little bit but the rest of the buds look nice.
I'm watering with BioBloom as the previous week and overall, the leaves are still green so I think it works well.
This week, the plants reached the 100th day since the start of the germination :)
