July 6: peak growing season now and I expect she’ll be growing about an inch per day here for the next couple of weeks. Weather should be perfect and just have to dodge the thunderstorms. Started another lazy compost tea. Cheers to all growers. 👍 July 7: mild defoliation done over this last week to let light in to the growth tips. Water only as a light flush. July 8: definitely fast growth and looking very dark green but hopefully not too much N. Watered in evening with lazy compost tea. This lazy compost tea is just a 5 gallon (20 L pail) with couple handfuls of mature compost, some molasses, some humic acids and kelp, Dr Bronners peppermint soap as a surfactant (or wetting agent) and vinegar to get pH near 7. Then it’s all left in the shade for about 24-48 hours with the occasional stir. Alternately you could just use Recharge which is made from bacteria, molasses and humic acids. Super easy either way. July 10: added a couple handfuls of malted barley as a top dressing. This is a top organic growing tip from Clackamas Coot. Just get some from a local brew shop which should have a variety of malted grains. Cheap stuff is fine. I’ll add some Power Bloom next week but I figured the barley is good enough for now. Now 25 inches so she grew 6 inches in 4 days. Good times. Good times.

5 week vegetating. The nutrient overdose is still there. I was outside the weekend and the plant growed too quick (doubled in size in 5 days) so it got burnt with the lamp as yo can see in the pictures. I think it will act likea a topping but i don't know the real impact yet. I have set up an scrog to try to contain the height (1 week later due to logistic problems). The root system is insane and healthy. I think she is near to start flowering maybe this week or the next week. Day 36 update- as you can see the plant is preflowering. I won't change the nutrient solution yet to avoid another fertilization excess. when the plant recover from scrog and prunning i will change to flowering nutrient dose at 80%.

D57/FD29 - So, at the last few days of week 4, the SCP had a good push to itself...put on about 6-9" so had to do some bending/leaning of some pretty stiff stems. Unfortunately the only way for them to go was towards the tent walls so drops the light but they're getting WAYYYY over the DLI they should be getting without supplementation of CO2 but its not doing them too much harm. They're drinking a ton but not taking on as much feed (as I've come to expect now in flower) so dropped the base and bloom by 10% (same recommended ratio of 1:1) and kept the PK9/18 booster in there at (what would be recommended) strength for this week...its the same as last week but week 1 (week 4 of flower) of PK9/18 should have been double...didn't want to overdo it as when I used recommended strength 1st time I got it, it created some serious root zone acidification (Which could have been all the K getting used up but was a mare getting the pH up from 4.something every day!!!). Did my usual root flush/wash before adding feed as the EC had crept up to 2.2 (and I know from experience, that starts messing with your numbers if you don't wash that out right) and took about 50L-60L to get the tank to 0.3EC (base is 0.2) was was a lot of salt sitting on/in the roots. Had a ton of underscreen dead leaf to pick up and just cut some wee straggly offshoots (I know, bad idea in flower but they were basically dead/no nutritional value left so basically a bug magnet). Still waiting on Bluelab to send me the RMA approved pH pen...been 2 weeks now since the RMA was approved and still no postage - using an "essentials" pH meter and just dipping in Calibration Fluids between each feed add to ensure some accuracy (As you can see from my recipe page, I like to know what the feed does to the pH - also gives an idea on what they're feeding on when you see pH swings in a different direction that expected). Geekbeast also got back to me. In all fairness, I've been dealing with them direct (Got the light fixture from Alibaba, direct from China - big gamble, right???) and they have been more than helpful. I have been telling them about the light randomly coming on at 5% (lowest brightness) and provided evidence; turns out someone else now noticed the same issue with the Remote App controlled variant and they believed it was a loose control board/wire. They said they did some stuff and that fixed it but I also thought mine was fixed by forcing the dimmer to 0% and it still randomly happened (even though it didn't do it for weeks) so the other person may still get a surprise!! 😋 So, I took out the driver today, pulled out the control board and all wires seemed good and no looseness in the control board (although it does look slightly bent as the Spade for the IR/UV switch isn't fully bedded in). But, like I say, in all fairness to Geeklight, they're posing me a new control board tomorrow from China AND giving me the longer driver cables so as I can put the driver outside of the tent! Give me a bit more room for my Flower Initiator and great to see them honouring the Warranty. Apart from that, wish the SCP would start to set flowers better, they're still looking a bit weak up top but stems appear to be stacking. Hopefully now that last push happened (and hopefully all pushed out!!!!), they will concentrate on buds only...this may be a 10+ week-er - which again, cant really afford as growing tent is drying tent!!! Its supposed to be a 75% indica so would expect bigger/quicker flowering but not showing too many symptoms of being mostly indica...maybe not quite a fully stable genetic line yet?? I dunno but its running slower like a sativa - even with the flower initiator and the late push would maybe imply that too??? Funnily, its tent mate, Red Hot Cookies is 60% sativa and has set flowers quite well so far - showing colour to the tips of the pistils...just wish it would start turning pink!!! Anyway, think that's enough s**te chatted by me!!! Happy growing all!!! 💪

It's the last week according to RQS... This fresh citrus smell is so good... Trichomes are not ready yet...

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 10/05/19 || To/Hasta: 16/05/19 From day/Desde día: 78 || To day/Hasta día: 84 You can find the Money Maker Diary here: ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Money Maker aquí:** https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25667-gorillamakingmoney-gorilla-vs-money-m -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- 5 - HomeMade Organic & Cheap CO2 generator (more info in week summary) 9, 10, 11 & 12: The bud on the right is a Gorilla one, the buds in the left or/and in the middle are Money Maker ones. 15 - Same Gorilla plant buds, one affected by CO2 in the roots and the other not. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- The smell is more sweet and intense every day, friends that came home turned them eyes into crystals when they see this little babys. The size isn't awesome, but the high ammount of buds full of crystals plus the strong sweet aroma makes them awesome. Buds are growing and fattenning very very well. This week i added a boost of HomeMade CO2, i never measured the results of this invention so i can't give CO2 measurements. This method is widely used in home aquariums and there is where it comes from. For those interested i'm going to write here more detailed instructions. The 4 liters i've made will last for about 2 weeks. ---NEEDINGS--- - 250 ml Bottle - 6~10 l Bottle - 400 g Sugar / l water - 1 Envelope of organic baker's yeast / l water (CHEMICAL WILL NOT WORK) - 3 mid plastic tubes 40~50 cm - 1 short plastic tube 5~6 cm - 4 tube adapters - Hot glue to seal adapters The process of creating CO2 is simple, mix water, organic yeast and sugar in a bottle, and the sugar will free CO2 in the process of fermenting to alcohol due to the yeast. 1. Make a hole in the center of the big bottle cap, insert an adapter and secure it with hot glue 2. Make 3 holes in the small bottle cap and glue the other 3 adapters 3. Link both caps with one of the mid tubes and insert the other tubes on free adapters 4. Insert a short tube in the bottom of the small cap in the adapter that came from the big cap 5. Watch the Video!! -----WATERING CALENDAR----- Plants are beginning to drain the pots a bit faster so from now on i will raise the water ammount on each watering day 0.25 l. 11/05/19 - 1,5 l with All week nutrients -(Nirvana & Blombastic) also Big Bud half dosed @ PH6.4 & 2 E.C. 14/05/19 - 1,5 l with Bud Candy, Big Bud, Nirvana, B52, Bud Factor-X, Sensizym & Blombastic @ PH6.4 & 1.5 E.C. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES Y VÍDEOS----- 5: Generador de CO2 casero, barato y orgánico (más info en el sumario semanal) 9, 10, 11 & 12: El cogollo que sale a la derecha es de una Gorila, el de la izquierda y/o el de en medio son de una Money Maker 15: Dos cogollos de la misma planta, uno afectado por CO2 en las raíces y el otro no -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- El olor es más dulce e intenso día a día, los amigos que vienen a casa a verlas se quedan ojipláticos al verlas. El tamaño no es una maravilla, pero la gran cantidad de cogollos llenos de cristales añadido al aroma que entra por las fosas nasales las hacen increíbles. Los cogollos crecen y engordan de maravilla. Esta semana he añadido un boost de CO2 casero, nunca he hecho mediciones de los resultados por lo que no puedo darlas. Este método es ampliamente usado en peceras caseras y de ahí saqué la idea. Para aquellos interesados dejo aquí instrucciones más detalladas. Con los 4 litros de agua que he preparado yo da para unas 2 semanas. ---NECESITAMOS--- - Botella de 250 ml - Botella de 5 a 10 litros - 400 g de azúcar por litro de agua - 1 sobre de levadura de postre orgánica (LA QUÍMICA NO FUNCIONARÁ) - 3 tubos de plástico de tamaño medio 40~50 cm - 1 tubo de plástico de tamaño pequeño 5~6 cm - 4 adaptadores para los tubos - Cola caliente para pegar y sellar los adaptadores El proceso de generar CO2 es simple, mezcla agua, levadura orgánica y azúcar en una botella, y el azúcar liberará CO2 en el proceso de fermentación a alcohol. 1. Haz un agujero en la tapa de la botella grande, inserta un adaptador y séllalo con cola caliente 2. Haz 3 agujeros en el tapón pequeño y haz lo mismo con los otros 3 adaptadores 3. Conecta los 2 tapones con uno de los tubos y conecta los otros 2 tubos a los adaptadores restantes 4. Conecta el tubo pequeño en la parte libre del adaptador del tapón pequeño que viene del tapón grande 5. Mira el vídeo -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- Las platas comienzan a secar los tiestos un poco más rápido, asi que de ahora en adelante incrementaré 250 ml de agua adicionales en cada riego. 11/05/19 - 1,5 l con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Nirvana & Blombastic) BigBud mitad de dosis @ PH6,4 & 2 E.C. 14/05/19 - 1,5 l con Bud Candy, Big Bud, Nirvana, B52, Bud Factor-X, Sensizym y Blombastic @ PH6,4 & 1,5 E.C.

Week 15 - August 09, 2020 -Day 99 08/09: We’re almost at the end. I gave Aaliyah her first watering with plain water. I’m planning on chopping the top colas off of her in a week. Hopefully I can get something out of the lower growth that isn’t getting any light right now. Alexis is coming down in two and Annie in three. Annie has some damage due to the light, but she is hanging in there. Alexis looks the healthiest overall. She stayed pretty compact, so light is still able to reach her lower parts. I think I could’ve had a better grow overall if I would have stuck with using only 3-gallon pots. [General notes: The nutrients on the diary are based off what I’m giving Aaliyah. Alexis is on the previous weeks schedule and Annie in the schedule from two weeks ago.]

I've increased the food. Fungus gnats are still there, they seem to go then return 😭 they love organic that's for sure

Merry Christmas to everyone I’ve decided to hold off on harvesting but I’m not worried just even more excited to weigh them out!

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis Jour 15 le pot est lourd car les bonnes conditions associées à un substrat de qualité et une bonne hygrométrie avec une température parfaite limite grandement les besoins en eau inutile d'arroser pour l'instant Jour 17 pinçage de l'apex pour que les branches inférieure soient plus fortes et prolifique (voir video Day17) Avec le temps et l'expérience je pense que le pinçage d'apex associé au lst sont les techniques qui offrent le meilleur rendement pour les autofloraisons

Hello my grow mates 😇 As first week occur I cannot complain at all. She start to develop a foliage and it is a little to much for her, so today (Day 7) she was supported 💪 Please have a good evening, You Lovely Girls Growers 😇 💪 🙏

Day 55! Just shy of the 8 week mark, I reckon next week the Lemon cherries will be getting the 🔪 buds swollen out nice, still lots of white pistils and very clear trichomes, but with the way there developing I’ll have to keep a close eye.. gorillas starting to bulk up now, as always I’m looking forward to what this week brings, untill next time! 👊🏻

Creo que estan sufriendo una pequena deficiencia de azoto. (creo) De Toda forma la nena esta muy bien

Bonjour à tous, ces derniers jours ce sont bien passé pour mes petit bébés elles grandissent doucement mais sûrement.C’est la première fois que je travail avec cette gamme de produits (je vous est mis des photos des produits 😉) pour l’instant j’en suis satisfait après, il faut voir le résultat final ce qui est moins facile 😂. Mes petit bébés commence leurs 5ème semaine (je me suis trompé d’une semaine 😕 désolé 😉) trop pressé!!! 😂 de mettre de nouvelles photos 😜. Je vous dis à là semaine prochaine vivement 😉 bonne journée à tous. Je vous remercie 😉.

This week I planted two of them, Juana and María. I used a plastic glass of aprox 350ml, hoping my new babies will grow normally this time. I used a bit of mycorrhizae fungi powder and watered them with the soution described above. I'm germinating another seed and it will be ready at the end of this week. Well that seed didn't pop up so a friend gifted me another runtz seed and a critical pruple from Geaseeds. The critical already poped up and Tomorrow 27/06 she will be in her new home, right next to Juana and Maria. The last Runtz is still germinating.,they don't germinate at the same rate, that's strange, is the first time I see that in the same genetics.

Week 1, 8-14 August 2025 8 Aug - Adjusted light power to 30%, DLI is 18 at 18hrs. 9-14 Aug - Observed and let the seedling grow. The seedling is growing and doing fine. Some take off faster than others. Roots are protruding into the reservoir and the color of the plant is fine. I expect rapid vegetative growth in the near future. - 7 Aug initial nutrient solution started - 7 Aug initial feeding schedule began - Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 - Adjusting PH to 6.1 daily using GH up/down - Nutrient solution EC 1.0 at 67 degrees F - Light power at 30%, DLI 18 canopy coverage at 18hrs - Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.
