SETUP: -MIGRO 100 -Grow space 60X60X160 (Mammoth PRO 60). -Grow medium is Gold Label Special Mix Gold edition Premium, Airpot (10l). _____________________________ 18th August - 1 x Stress Killer Automatic CBD germinating. Yesterday a package arrived from Royal Queen Seeds! 3 Royal Gorilla Auto, 3 Stress Killer Automatic CBD. This is my second grow. Very happy that @James from Royal Queen Seeds hooked me up with this, plus loads of goodies! thanks again!✌️🏻️ _____________________________ 20th August - Planted in soil (11AM) using the final pot (10L). Watered with 15ml water around where I planted her. _____________________________ 24th August - Day 1 - Seedling above ground after 4 days in soil. I also planted another seed in a red beer cup just to see if there were any significant differences in growth. That one came up above ground already after 2 days. I'm only going to keep one of them but for now you'll see pictures of both for a little bit longer until I decide which one to keep. Of course a transplantation will be needed if I go with the one in the beer cup. I was hoping that transplantation wouldn't be needed this time. _____________________________ 25th August - Day 2 (Day 4 Beer Cup) - Still hasn't got the shell off. Only beer cup going strong so far. Fed both with 30ml tap💧 I also noticed something weird. It looks like "beer cup" has developed trichomes already which I know isn't the case. _____________________________ 27th August - Day 4 (Day 6 Beer Cup) - The shell came off yesterday. Fed both with 50ml tap💧 _____________________________ 28th August - Day 5 (Day 7 Beer Cup) - Fed both with 45-60ml tap💧 _____________________________

Will be adding a whole lot of notes to the last couple weeks just trying to get all my harvest pictures up :) This one was a pure treat to grow . I am confident using exotic seeds that they can produce some if the world's best cannabis , hands down . They all were bushes , not too much stretch in flower at all . Usually in the first run with a strain I'm just figuring it all out.

Welcome to Week 3 of the Sweet Seeds Gorilla Girl XL Auto’s grow. It’s been extremely cold here in Canada this last few weeks and these plants are doing their best to survive- not thrive. Although they are healthy and happy, they are just not thriving like my previous Sweet Seeds grow from the fall of 2021. The temperatures are only a few degrees cooler than spring, summer and fall but the humidity is extremely low at this particular time of year- 20-25% at best. Without adding additional humidity via a humidifier, my plants are at the mercy of the dry Canadian winters. Week 3 did not bring the expected growth spurt experienced by the plants in my previous Sweet Seeds grow (the Cream Mandarine XL autos). I have included a side by side comparison photo above to show the massive difference in size between the two SS grows. It’s because of the slow growth that I have decided not to top these plants 👎🏼 I increased the water early in Week 3 to 2.1 litres per plant every 4th day (0.52 of a litre per plant per day). Hopefully these ladies pick up a little over week 4. Mom’s Tip for Week #3- To Top or Not to Top?… Topping is an simple technique used by growers to split the main stalk/stem into two separate stalks/stems. This allows for height control when growing XL strains, encourages lower branch growth creating a more equal canopy height and of course- creates two beautiful, big colas instead of one! But topping Autoflowers has long been the source of great debate so I’m here to clarify Mom’s Do’s & Don’ts when topping autos. Do top your plants if they are healthy, thriving and on track (growth wise) with other growers and any info the breeder’s might provide. Don’t top your plants if they appear unhealthy, simply surviving and behind/slow (growth wise) compared to other growers growing the same strain. Do top your Autoflowers between 3-5 weeks from seed or when your plants have grown as many sets of branches as you desire (usually 4-6 sets of branches or nodes). Don’t top your auto’s beyond the 5th-6th week as they are most likely going into full flower. Do top, prior to or very early on in the pre-flower stretch and don’t top too late in pre-flower or once budding has begun- it’s too late and you’ve missed your opportunity for this grow. Do top your plants if you know what you’re doing and you’ve got the right tools. Believe it or not, I use a sterilized set of nail clippers (dedicated to this job alone) as they deliver a clean, controlled, perfect cut every time. Don’t top your plants if you haven’t done your homework or you haven’t got the right tools. Many people use their fingers but I find they are too large and awkward for such a precise job. More than once I have missed (FIM’d) or taken one of the two baby branches that are supposed to be left behind or simply injured those tiny developing branch sites by accident. Do top your autoflowers if you are growing a large/XL strain in a small/short space. This allows the grower to influence/control the overall height of the plants and creates a more equal/level canopy of foliage and eventually bud. Don’t top your auto’s if you are growing a short, fast flowering strain as this can sometimes stall/stunt them a tiny bit. Some Autoflowers run such a tight seed to harvest schedule that they legitimately cannot afford any interruptions in their growing cycle so check the breeder’s info before you chop. Do have fun with growing your Cannabis and don’t be afraid to try something new. Don’t top your Auto’s expecting to triple your yield though. I have learned that it will change the shape and height of your plants and you’ll end up with less low level, larfy bud but your yields will be almost identical whether you top or not. ✂️✂️✂️

Hello again and welcome to week 5, the beginning of true flower! Ahsoka (her star wars name) is doing awesome with LST. Last week we tied down her main cola but this week her branches were long enough to Tie most of them down to. I will leaf tuck everyday to keep light on the budsites. Ashoka has finally hardened off properly and I moved her to the big tent since she is also in flower. She is under The Optic 8+ we still haven't had to feed any nutrients yet 🤞 but are giving real growers recharge as a microbial. As you can see her roots have just exploded with growth. Love this opaque container deal! The Optic 8+ is turned up full blast as well since we hardened her off by gradually bringing her into the tent Stats: Ohahu(not reccomended)4x4 tent 1gal water pitcher Fox farms happy frog soil Optic 8+ LED Durabreeze carbon filter 4" inline fan

OG Kush, the name alone brings up images of something totally chill. But this little guy isn't just about having a cool name, he's got serious growing potential. From the moment that first shoot broke through the soil, I knew this seedling was something special. The leaves are a perfect shade of dark green, and they've got that signature OG thickness. I'm excited to see how this one develops – it's gonna be a fun journey watching OG grow into a big, beautiful plant!

Day 8 - First official day of veg and both ladies are right on time for a small adjustment in lighting, PH and nutrients. 10ml of Hydro A & Hydro B were added to both buckets (10L of water in each bucket) and the Milwaukee PH controller was set to work. Starting at a PH of around 7.8, it slowly worked down to a perfect 6.0 over about 50minutes. The lights were readjusted to be 60cm from the seedlings who are all between 8-10cm tall and the intensity of the lights increased to about 70% brightness. Day 9 - Cheech is taking nicely to the adjustment in light and nutrients, but CG 1 is looking a little bit too perky. Going to give her 24 hours to adjust. Day 10 - We have finally renamed CG 1. Fellow enthusiasts, meet Venezia. Day 12 - The root systems are clearly visible in the ladies today Day 13 - The ladies are looking well today. Venezia seems to be showing some light signs of heat stress with slight curling of the leaves. The lights are due to be adjusted tomorrow to account for the seedlings growth over the last week.

🍊 Correction time! Alright guys, I have to admit — I totally mixed things up somewhere during transplant 😅 Turns out this one here is actually Sweet Mandarine Z, not Mental Rainbow. And the one that’s listed under Sweet Mandarine Z is in fact the Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Unfortunately, GrowDiaries doesn’t let me edit the strain name anymore (thanks, GD 😩), but I wanted to make it clear for everyone following along. 👉 So just to keep it transparent: – This diary = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – The other one = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Both are from Sweet Seeds, and both are turning out absolutely amazing 🔥 If you enjoy my grows and want to see even more updates, follow me on Instagram: @Dendegrow 🌿📸 I post there more often — with extra tips, tricks & grow insights 🌱💡 🍊 Korrektur-Post! Okay Leute, ich muss zugeben — ich habe beim Umtopfen wohl die Pflanzen vertauscht 😅 Diese hier ist nämlich Sweet Mandarine Z, und nicht Mental Rainbow. Und die, die unter Sweet Mandarine Z läuft, ist in Wahrheit die Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Leider kann man bei GrowDiaries den Sortennamen nachträglich nicht mehr ändern (danke dafür 😩), aber ich wollte das hier klarstellen, damit alle Bescheid wissen. 👉 Zur Übersicht: – Dieses Tagebuch = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – Das andere = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Beide stammen von Sweet Seeds – und beide entwickeln sich absolut großartig 🔥 Wenn euch meine Grows gefallen, folgt mir gerne auch auf Instagram: @Dend 🌿📸 Dort poste ich noch mehr Inhalte mit Infos, Tipps und Tricks rund ums Growen 🌱💡

All 3 girls made it, one of them seems to be a bit slow. I noticed they all grew a bit slow and I assume this is due to not using any DYNOMYCO mycorrhizal inoculant. Will definitely try it again on the next run to test it.

She is growing nice, the buds are getting fat, apparently i was expecting gorilla cookies to be the winner at the size of the buds until now, apparently i was wrong, amnezia has bigger buds than gorilla at this stage :) we will see who is going to be the winner... who you think is going to win?
