26 days since my little girl sprouted from a seed🌱 Third week of growing my Gorilla Cookies Auto 🦍🍪🦍 Nutrients: I use Advanced Hydroponics Of Holland nutrients - three basic components, always according to the table for vegetative growth 💓 - - Dutch Formula 1 Grow - supplies the plant with substances necessary for the perfect development of roots, stem and leaves; intended for the growth phase 🌾 - Dutch Formula 2 Bloom - contains a large amount of nutrients needed for rapid growth and development of fruits, provides energy to the plant; intended for the flower phase 🌸🌿 - Dutch Formula 3 Micro - increases oxygen intake, improves plant immunity, ensures better absorption of nutrients; intended for the growth and flowering phase 🌴 -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -------- BioBizz Calmag - The special Calmag supplement was designed for professional and hobby growers who need to supply calcium and magnesium in organic quality to plants for a long time or immediately. 100% organic 💩💩 and certified BioBizz Calmag product is made from calcium carbonate and magnesium sulfate supplemented with humic acid. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -------- BioBizz Bio pH- is an organic pH regulator. Aqueous solution of citric acid, which occurs naturally in citrus fruits 🍋🍋 -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ------- During the flowering period, I add Advanced Nutrients stimulators: - Bud Ignitor (first two weeks of flowering) - flower stimulator 🌸🏵️ - Bud Candy - carbs for my girls 🍭🍭🍭 - JUNGLE - ENVIRON X is a highly effective complex product stimulate the formation of flowers. Contains no synthetic growth regulators (PGRs). • multiplies yield and increases product quality In general: Gorilla Cookies Auto 🦍🍪🦍 - The girl went into the flowering phase, so I adjusted the nutrients. She grew a lot in height, because she germinated 10 days later than the other girls in the tent. It responds very well to nutrients, is strong and has a beautiful green color 🍃💚 Training: During this period, I usually do another defoliation and LST 💚🌞🌞 Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 The plants react effectively and the light is technically very well managed - I try to have 50cm between the light and the plants, so I move it up regularly 💡💡💡 See you soon 😍💚

All looks good with this freak, starting to get big. Has more than doubled in size in 10 days, think I might have upped the feed a bit soon and got a bit of nute burn so back down a bit and seems to be fine. Gonna have to thin her out a bit as she is hella bushy. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

🇩🇪🏆**Grow Report by Zuppler - Week 4 Flowering Phase** 👸🏼 Ayo, what’s good fam? Zuppler back at it with that Week 4 flowering update. The grow room is lit right now, and these ladies are showin' out. I ain’t change much this week – just raised the lights up a bit to give ‘em some more headspace and went ahead and snipped off a few more of them lower branches. Ain’t nobody got time for them popcorn buds, feel me? The canopy’s lookin’ tight, main colas gettin’ chunky, just how I like it. All that energy’s goin’ straight to the top, so we’re stackin' up some serious weight. And yo, that one plant up front on the left? She’s a real keeper, no doubt. She’s standin’ out like a queen, buds frosty as a winter morning in the Panhandle. I’m already knowin’ she’s gonna be the star of the show. Everything’s still on point – temps, humidity, and the girls are drinkin’ up that RO water and Advanced Nutrients like it’s a cold drink on a hot day. Ain’t no stressin', no deficiencies, just straight fire in the making. It’s all about lettin’ ‘em swell now, and I can already tell this harvest ‘bout to be a banger. That front-left queen’s gonna be a real standout. Zuppler signin’ off. Keep it lit, fam!

Day 22 22/07/24 Monday Nothing new to report. Starting to see them beautiful fans appear that's all 😁✌️ Day 23 23/07/24 Tuesday Feed today, giving them straight all nutes Inc flowering nutes. I will update the dose as they grow and develop a bigger hunger. (Not sure what's wrong with Overdose #2, bit mutated, we'll see how she gets on 😅) Video updates 👌💚 Day 26 26/07/24 Friday De-chlorinated watering pH 6 with 5ml calmag to 5L water. Watered each with 250ml and had small run off. I will continue to feed/water with small run offs to help prevent salt build ups. Video update.

Everything was fine. So I started to bath each pot by using a fermentation nutrient by using beneficial bacteria, mycobacteria, some Orgatrex, different mycorrhiza's as 36 hours fermented potions with 2 liters/pot. Oh I forget to tell You, as You can see in the Video the water drops 💦 on the surfaces of their leafs @ day 23 I used Boom Boom Spray too for preparing the next stage of powerful photosynthesis by raising up my SanLights @ 300 µmol/m² s. Second video was @ day 26. I raised up a little natural CO2 from 450 ppm to 550 ppm. So they were prepared for more powerful photosynthesis coming up the next days… Critical Orange Punch and Amnesia Zkittlez showed some typical nutritional sensitivities some phenotypes of Sativa dominated strains can show @ the way to powering up the system. Light tops on the head of the leaf area. But again: “Don’t panic, it’s organic.” Also @ day 26 I started with my preferred technique of LST by mainly just pull down a little, the biggest fan leafs, so the little Life-hungry drives were able to came through and got enough homogeneous ppfd for uniform growth rate too.

🇺🇸 Week 7 - Grow Journal of Mother Gorilla (Royal Queen Seeds) 🇺🇸 On the Way Back to Full Strength! After two tough weeks with overfeeding and water stress, I’m finally happy to see my plant bouncing back. The roots had taken a hit, and last week, I noticed my filter was way more clogged than usual. I believe the dead roots were broken down and flushed out, most likely thanks to Cannazym. I added it specifically to help decompose the damaged roots, and it seems to have done its job. Today, I checked the roots and saw that they have stopped browning and are beginning to return to a more normal color. They were previously quite dark, but now they’re showing signs of improvement. The root mass hasn’t regained volume yet, but I think it’s still eliminating waste. It’ll be interesting to see if more debris accumulates in the filter or if it remains clean from now on. Another great sign: my nutrient solution level has dropped, meaning the plant is feeding properly again. At the same time, my EC has decreased, confirming that it’s actively absorbing nutrients. This recovery is also visible in the canopy: it has become denser, allowing me to slightly top some central shoots that were growing past the screen and to continue working on the SCROG. The only minor issue this week was pH fluctuation. Over the weekend, it rose to 6.6, but I recalibrated it to 5.9 today. I suspect this is due to the plant still shedding dead roots, which could be affecting its balance. Either way, I’ll be changing the nutrient solution soon, which should stabilize things further. Current Grow Parameters: • Strain: Mother Gorilla (Royal Queen Seeds) • Light Cycle: 18 hours • Humidity: 70% • pH: Adjusted back to 5.9 after peaking at 6.6 • EC: Down to 1.1 after briefly reaching 1.3 - 1.4 • Training: Light topping in the center + SCROG work + selective defoliation for better light penetration Final Thoughts: Things are improving, but we’re not fully there yet. The plant is regaining strength, the roots are clearing up, and it’s feeding well again. I’ll keep a close eye on its next developments, especially root mass expansion. Excited to see how things evolve next week! See you next time for another update! ⸻ 🇫🇷 Semaine 7 - Journal de Culture de Mother Gorilla (Royal Queen Seeds) 🇫🇷 On est en train de revenir à la pleine forme ! Après deux semaines compliquées marquées par une surnutrition et un stress hydrique, je suis heureux de voir que la plante repart dans le bon sens. Les racines avaient bien souffert, et en observant mon filtre la semaine dernière, j’ai remarqué qu’il était bien plus encrassé que d’habitude. J’en conclus que les racines mortes ont été détruites et évacuées, sûrement grâce au Cannazym. J’avais ajouté ce produit pour faciliter la décomposition des racines abîmées, et cela semble avoir bien fonctionné. Aujourd’hui, en observant les racines, j’ai constaté qu’elles ont arrêté de brunir et qu’elles commencent à retrouver une couleur normale. Elles étaient auparavant bien sombres, mais leur état s’améliore nettement. Pour l’instant, la masse racinaire n’a pas encore repris en volume, mais je pense qu’elle élimine encore des déchets. Ce sera intéressant de voir si mon filtre continue à accumuler du dépôt ou si tout est désormais propre. Autre signe encourageant : le niveau de ma solution nutritive a bien baissé, ce qui indique que la plante se réalimente correctement. En parallèle, mon EC a également diminué, preuve qu’elle absorbe bien les nutriments. Cette reprise se reflète aussi visuellement : la canopée s’est densifiée, ce qui m’a permis de légèrement étêter certaines têtes centrales qui dépassaient du grillage et de continuer mon travail sur le SCROG. Le seul petit point de vigilance concerne le pH, qui a fluctué. Ce week-end, il est monté jusqu’à 6,6, mais je l’ai recalibré aujourd’hui à 5,9. Je pense que ces variations sont dues au fait qu’elle se débarrasse encore de ses racines mortes et qu’elle n’a pas encore retrouvé un équilibre complet. De toute façon, je vais bientôt renouveler la solution nutritive, ce qui permettra de repartir sur une base stable. Paramètres de culture actuels : • Variété : Mother Gorilla (Royal Queen Seeds) • Photopériode : 18 heures de lumière • Humidité : 70 % • pH : ajusté à 5,9 après une fluctuation jusqu’à 6,6 • EC : descendu à 1,1 après être monté à 1,3 - 1,4 • Taille & palissage : léger topping central + travail sur le SCROG + retrait de quelques feuilles pour une meilleure pénétration lumineuse En conclusion : Les choses s’améliorent, mais ce n’est pas encore complètement gagné. La plante reprend de la vigueur, les racines s’éclaircissent et elle recommence à bien se nourrir. Je reste attentif aux prochaines évolutions, notamment sur la masse racinaire. Hâte de voir comment ça progresse la semaine prochaine ! À la semaine prochaine pour un nouveau point ! 🤘😎

Steady week , bit of defoliation to try and get some light to the bottoms too . Using a 300 watt phlizon which is a great light but not the largest of coverage . De humid working nicely which for the price is a very good thing

This week I transplanted directly into a 5 gallon pot. There were no signs of stress after transplanting. So far, it is looking short, stacked and healthy.

Everything is OK. They appear to be very healthy. Some with more strength than others to grow. Looking forward to seeing how they will be in 1 week. 4 strips of LEDs with 48 watts ( 40cm) each will arrive in an order to include in the grow. Should I include them as soon as they arrive or just in bloom? also with veg and bloom and full spectrum options Sorry for the photos with the light on. I just had time now to take the photo. The plant nº2 is growing a lot :) Watering on: Day 1 21/03 - 600 ml Day 4 24/03 - 200 - 250 ml Day 8 28/03 - 100 ml per plant plus spraying water Day 10 30/03 - 250 - 300 ml per plant To much water? The top soil was starting to dry a lot, I'm making the control based on that, and not giving to much water each time Plants Size Day 8 Vs 11 1 - 4 cm vs 4 cm 2 - 5 cm vs 5.5 cm 3 - 3 cm vs 3.5 4 - 2 cm vs 3 cm 5 - 3 cm vs 3 cm Give your suggestions guys, what would you do? Already include new led lamps on the start of week 3 ? Fertilize on the end of week 3 ? Good grows everyone 😀💪

The buds are forming! Changed to a nicer light recently, light is great, although my mars hydro 600w did me justice. This new one I got of amazon for under $100 is 1000 watt led and crushing it. It has increased temps significantly which is a bit tough for me to control given my tent is in a closet. Also it is starting to getting less humid outside, so I reduced airflow in the tent to keep the humidity at 50. I have a small humidifier coming soon (oddly a Corporate work gift lol).

Here we are in what it will be the final week... I am now at day 61 and I'm considering to cut at the end of this current week... in 2 days basically... I recently bought a scope that allows me to check the trichomes and I can see all milky ones, I also posted some videos of it, please guys let me know your thoughts... Beside this buds are hard like rocks and smell still pretty intense and I cannot wait to taste this short but bulky phenotype. I'll keep you guys posted if I harvest or not this week hoping to read some of your comments. So Stay tuned, stay high! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Little update at Day 63. I decided to give her few more days, so next week will be chopping her, this mostly cause I watered her last time on Day 61 and now I am basically just waiting for the soil to be dry. I count to put her in the dark for 48 hours at Day 65 and finally chop her at day 67, I cannot wait to update you for the harvesting part. I expect to reach 50/60 grams dry and I really hope to achieve that. Keep you guys posted! Stay tuned, stay high!
