🇺🇸 Week 9 of Growth – Mother Gorilla 🇺🇸
Hey everyone, we’re back for Week 9 of growth for the Mother Gorilla from Royal Queen Seeds.
This week wasn’t great—the plant struggled to recover after the defoliation.
I had major pH fluctuations all week, which really slowed down growth.
Now at Week 9, I really want to switch to flowering, but the plant isn’t developing well enough.
For the past three weeks, things haven’t been going smoothly, and it’s frustrating.
This morning, after returning from the weekend, pH had risen to 6.4, which is way too high for hydro at this stage.
So I flushed the reservoir and started fresh with a new, properly adjusted nutrient solution.
I kept all the nutrients the same, and all other parameters remain unchanged.
Now, my main focus this week is keeping the nutrient solution stable so the plant can resume healthy growth.
Nothing else to report—just pH fluctuations and slowed growth.
The plant really needs to regain strength before flowering, or it’ll be a problem.
See you next week!

🇫🇷 Semaine 9 de Croissance – Mother Gorilla 🇫🇷
Salut tout le monde, on est de retour pour la semaine 9 de croissance de la Mother Gorilla de chez Royal Queen Seeds.
Cette semaine n’a pas été top, la plante a eu du mal à récupérer après la défoliation.
J’ai eu de grosses fluctuations de pH toute la semaine, ce qui a ralenti la croissance.
On est à 9 semaines de croissance, et j’aimerais vraiment passer en floraison, mais la plante ne se développe pas assez bien.
Ça fait trois semaines que ça ne se passe pas comme prévu, et c’est frustrant.
Ce matin, en rentrant du week-end, le pH était monté à 6,4, ce qui est bien trop élevé pour l’hydro à ce stade.
J’ai donc vidé la soupe et préparé une nouvelle solution nutritive ajustée.
J’ai gardé les mêmes nutriments, et toutes les constantes restent inchangées.
Cette semaine, mon objectif est de stabiliser la solution nutritive pour que la plante puisse reprendre une bonne croissance.
Rien d’autre à signaler, à part les fluctuations de pH et le ralentissement.
Elle doit vraiment reprendre de la vigueur avant la floraison, sinon ça risque d’être compliqué.
À la semaine prochaine !
🤘😎

Week six I’ve been watering when dry and I bumped the nutrients up a bit. I started to prune some of the lower fan leaves to help with the bud growth. Everything looks to be going well with Billy by Mandy still seems to be pretty small.

Welcome back to yet another update on my summer grow 😎🤙🏻
Things are still going smooth, a bit defoliation and nematodes was used and hopefully they will do their job in a few days😁
Started to add bloom to the mix, so let’s see how things turn out.
As you can see the red spectrum is really working well, and soon I´ll add
some small amounts of IR/UV daily.
Looking forward to see the result 😊

Had another major defoliation this week to uncover more flowering sites and to help lower the humidity, given a top dress of bat guano too and upped some of the nutrients. Still have more shades of green in there than I would like, as said before all clones from the same mother.. all photos taken day 25 of flower

D65: Tried taking some pictures with the macro lens. I'd say the majority of the trichromes are cloudy with some still clear and the occasional amber ones. Will keep track of the evolution.
D70: Buds keep getting bigger, the main cola is starting to look like one big, consolidated bud. Trichromes remain mainly cloudy, with some still transparent and some amber ones. Also gave her a flush (10l), since I think she'll be ready for harvest in at most 2 weeks. Next watering, I might add molasses a last time. Smell is strong and really sweet, reminds me of vanilla a little.

Plants started getting real bushy a couple of days after topping.
Low Stress Trained all the plants at the end of the week by tying them down using rubber coated garden wire to spread out the newly grown tops.
Also spaced out each plant evenly on the tray and turned on the other 2 PB2000 LED lights I had ready to go.

Welcome to week 3F of growfessor theatre, 4x4 edition.
The ladies are looking happy and healthy. Do-si-dos received a heavy defoliation, there were a ton of small inner branches starved for light, so they got cut.
LSD, Green Crack and Mandarin dreams all received a light defo, yellowing leaves were removed.
Lighting provided by Mars-Hydro TSW2000.
Thanks for stopping by, tune in next week growfessors for the next episode 👽🌳💚

Trop Cherry #8 x BeeJayz hasn’t been topped, I transplanted the girls this week from a 1 gallon pot to a 3 gallon pot. Trop Cherry was in a plastic pot but now in a fabric pot. Plants seem to be growing well.

Things are going pretty well. 🙂 I am just about to start flushing. Buds are swelling up and getting denser every day. Getting close to the finish line. 😎 I'll update throughout the week.

Wow!! It was sunny and hot all week! You can see that they almost doubled their size and are looking pretty much more healthy. That is also because I followed @MadeInGermany 's advice and decided to wait more until I had to water. They seem to have liked that, beacuse there is no more sign of Ca blocking in the leaves. And they grew very nicely, no need of everything. Also following his advice I will use Cal/Mag in the next watering. But, you know, I'm making it cheap... so I will use another home-made recipe: wood ash fertilizer, which include those nutrients and some that are needed in flowering stage -which seems to be starting, so next week will have the flowering label-. It also degrades the N in the soil that could be still causing a little overfeeding (leaves' tips are a bit burnt). However, I admit that my mistake was overwatering from the beggining. Lesson learned! No watering for the whole week and the plnat didn't seem to worry about it.
Man! If only it had been this sunny all the time! Plants look very healthier and are way bigger, with huge new leaves. A little amount of pistils showed up in the last days, so I guess it is the moment for stretching. Knowing that, I decided to do a little training on Sweet, as it is the one a bit behind. You can see in the last picture how I took a couple leaves that were blocking light from side branches-future bud sites- and taped them, so they didn't. If results are good I might do the same with Rebel, but I have a feeling that she'll do good without it.
Sadly, next week will be all rainy and cloudy... Nothing to do tho. Any commentary will be thanked, even if it is about how cheesy the videos are! 😂

Entramos en la recta final de esta gran Gorilla Glue 🔥🔥
La plana está increible, cogollos super super compactos y lo mas sorprendente es que no para de sacar mas pistilos blancos para seguir engordando.
Voy a valorar una semana mas para ver el desarrollo de los cogollos y ver si merece la pena dejarla alguna semana mas incluso.
El riego ya está siendo unicamente con agua y poco mas para reducir la cantidad de nutrientes y empezar a limpiar raices.
