4/18: I foliar fed them and gave them a little drink of water with humic acid, molasses, and endoboost 4/19: Foliar fed 4/20: Fed them with their first full-strength batch of nutes today...stand by for ignition.... 4/22: I FIM'd both of them today and gave them about 20oz of water with cal-mag, humic acid, and boomerang and foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. Later, I rinsed off the plants with a stiff stream of filtered water in preparation for tomorrow. 4/23: Today was BoomBoom Spray day! I just love how visible the growth is the day after a BoomBoom Spray day!😲 Tomorrow I'll spray them down with Axiom Harpin a|b proteins..they'll start flowering soon and I want them hitting their stretch with major vigor.👈 4/24: I did a foliar application of Harpin proteins today and I fed them with about 1/4-gallon each. I observed that they are both popping pistils already. I'll start increasing P and K with the next feeding. I bent over the main shoot on the taller one and tied it down. The other one wasn't ready yet. I turned on the 3rd pair of QB's and bud boosters today and removed all the blues and cool whites from the garden....the chains are off...reach for the stars my little lovelies! 4/25: Was busy with life, but checked on them a couple of times and they are both flowering.👍 Last day of week 3-

Think I've slowed the fade down over the week but she has lost a lot of leaves. Added some bio bizz grow and bloom in to the last couple waters and seems to have helped a bit. Should be fine till the end now as it's only about 3 weeks away.

The first thing I did was disinfect everything and put it in the shower. Then I calmly rewired the tent and filled the pots. 20% clay balls at the bottom as drainage. On top 50% Biobizz All- and 50% Biobizz Lightmix. I mixed the whole thing well beforehand. 3 seeds came out great, one is currently fighting through and I don't think anything will happen to the last. I planted them all today. Let's see if the last one can still make it.

Well today is day 42 I think it might be 41 LOL.. but anyway she's in full stretch I think she has maybe another week or so of stretching and we'll start seeing some crowning.. this is across of blueberry and somango so I'm hoping she's going to be tasty.. as I said it before I'm doing this small pot run just a sample the flower itself.. she's in a gallon container that's about 65% of the way full of soil.. she's at 23 in and growing so let me just say MaxiBloom with silica and Cal mag is like steroids for your plants... You just got to make sure you flush correctly to get that salt out and all the nutrient buildup.. thanks to everyone stopping by and taking a moment to see what I have I really appreciate it.. give me a like if you approve of what you see much love everyone.. and again sorry about the picture and video quality I'm going to have a good phone again and then I'm really going to step my game up I'm hoping to even be able to get some micro shots in the future.. happy growing ✌️

Vegetative week 4 --> I finally cleared the fungus gnats infestation😁. There are no more gnats flying around or on the soil surface. Unfortunately, the plants have not yet recovered from the stress. The plant in the fiber pot looks like the one that is recovering faster than the one in the plastic pot that seems to have stalled. I hope they recover fast beacuse the branches still small and the ladies start to flowering. I waterd the plants only one time this week with 2Lt of 6.5 pH water for plant. Temperature grow box---> 22-26 °C Umidity grow box ---> 45 - 55 % Total water of the week ---> 2 Lt/plant

The branching beast is doing well, but it's time again to bring her in a good shape. Also I'll set the LST new cause of the fast growing one of the branches started splitting up. So see ya next week when I maybe repot her in a bigger pot and cleaned her up!

Hi everyone, had some slight troubles this week. I had my light too high and the thc bomb stretched to quick and fell over when I watered her 😫. I Propped her up then added more soil around the stem, she seems to be ok now. Also been having trouble with night time temperature dropping to 55f so I’ve brought a tube heater and thermostat this has helped keep it at 64.5 F. As you can see from the pics the auto bomb seems to have some defects with her leafs, not sure what’s wrong but it does not seem to be effecting her at all. Day 13 i noticed the edges of the leafs on the thc bomb started to curl up slightly, don’t know why. I lifted the light slight coz I thought it might be heat stress. Apart from all that I am still fine tuning my set up and learning loads along the way. Really happy with how my girls are coming along. 🍁🍁

Day 22 to 28 from seed # Day 24: - After flushing then going away for 3 days, FR1 is looking much better....I think. - Did some LST, bud sites are reaching out. Will continue throughout the week. - 3/4 of them are showing preflower pistils. Expect FR2 to show some soon too. - Still on last weeks schedule # Day 26: - The Nutrient Chart listed for this week starts on this day. I fed @ 310ppm using water phd @ 6.1 on all excluding FR1 (big girl) - Flushed FR1 again - I flushed the 5G pot with 10G of water @ 5.8ph . I should have flushed more water through it before I left, but alas... # Lights: 24,000 - 26,000 Lux

D34, 12 Oct, Sunday ♥️ 2.2 L 💛2.1 L 💚 1.9 L CalMag, GrowBig, BigBloom, TigerBoom Finally started bottom feeding, which makes things easier. Defoliated a bunch and lollipop for better air and exposure. A lot slower in growth than Mephisto genetics. But let's see. D37, 15 Oct, Wednesday ♥️ 2.7L 💛2.5 L 💚 2.2 L All with just Recharge and nothing else. CalMag and/or K def on ♥️ and 💛. Let's see if it can still be fixed.

I’m measuring plant biomass this time around: plant HEIGHT, leaf WIDTH and CANOPY width for as long as possible, before tent space MAXED OUT. Target maximum plant height - 36”- 40”. Allowance for canopy width expansion of 2 plants in a 2x4x6 tent - varying between 24” - 36” from late vegetative stage through flowering. This is a stretch as far as space goes. One single plant would have be enough to fully fill the entire canopy of multiple colas. In other words, although one can legally grow up to 4 medicinal plants in Canada, and I chose to grow 2 of them, that does not necessarily mean extra yield. Plants are thriving and read to be flipped into flowering stage next. Light intensity increases and so does DLI. PPFD=683 and DLI=44.1. Photoperiod changes to 12/12 in week 6

13.06. Rainbow Sherbet 1# Day 49# The plant is at the end of its seventh week today, I moved it a few days ago to a mild shade and now it behaves much better and is progressing nicely. Rainbow Sherbet 2# Day 47# I have nothing special to write about this pheno, it is progressing well 5 nights ago there was a strong storm, the morning after the storm when I came to the site, I found some plants crooked, some normal, but there were no broken ones, thank God, but they were very stressed and what you can see in the pictures appeared on the leaves, some leaves were crispy at the edges, but still green, mostly shoots before the newest ones. I haven't had this problem before, I researched a bit on the internet and came to the conclusion that the wind burned them, and I also turned to GW for an opinion, two characters confirmed my opinion. Two days later I noticed that the matter was getting worse and that it was spreading, which worried me, so I contacted GW again for an opinion. Some told me that it was mold, some that it was an infection, disease and so on, mostly guesswork, but no one specifically told me what was certain, so I decided on nim oil, and whatever it is, I guess the problem should be solved. According to some leaves, I would say that insects might be the problem, but I really don't know, I haven't had similar problems before. I regulate the ph of the plants, I still don't feed them, there is food in the ground for another week, except for the fact that I added cal-mag after that storm when I watered them. I want to say that the plants are certainly not locked, and the heat is not yet so high that this would happen from the same, the more the temperatures have dropped and now it is perfect. Since transplanting, I have watered the plants only 2 times. Yesterday morning they were topped for the second time, only the main branches, I will do the next topping of the side branches. Last night I sprayed the plants with neem oil and already today the problem seems to be going away, if I tripped at least it doesn't spread further, that's for sure. I didn't mix the oil very well, I didn't add any soap or anything like that because I wouldn't really spray the plants with any chemicals, and on some of the leaves on one or two plants there is that thick, brownish liquid, so I hope it won't hurt them, I noticed that today during the day, I couldn't see it at night. I still don't know what the problem is, but my guess is still that the wind burned them or some insects. Speaking of insects, I think I noticed thrips on one plant on the underside of the leaf, so in addition to the neem oil I already gave, I also ordered SMC, so I will spray that at least once a week while they are still young. Happy Growing and Stay High!!!

Week 4 begins for Mandarin dreams and Divine storm. Both ladies are looking happy and I increased their feed by 1 liter each. Thank you Mars-Hydro for the TSW2000 light, very happy with the light performance so far. Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽 tune in next week for another episode of growfessor theatre!

- Day 43 Refreshed the tank today. pH was reading at 5.5 so seems like she is mostly drinking the water and not really the nutrients..I think. she's drinking a lot so the nutrients get a lot more concentrated. Gonna have to keep an eye on that. Think it's good that I switch to a schedule now of replacing the water reservoir twice a week now. Also checked PPFD, the top canopy is getting about 620 PPFD. Day 44 Flowers are starting to set in nicely. She is drinking a lot right now, have to top up the 4 liter reservoir every day now it seems. pH went up to 6.4, so brought it back down to 6.0 now. Day 45 She had another big stretch over night. I've raised the light a bit as she was getting close to it now and I don't wanna overstress her. She is still drinking a lot, topped up the reservoir with another 1.3 liters of ph 6.0 water. Will be doing a full water change tomorrow. Day 46 Fully renewed the water today with new nutrients, I did put in a bit less of each nutrient this time, I'm seeing some minor leaf tip burn starting to happen. Seems to correlate with the higher bloom nutrient dose, so I will dial that a bit down from now on. Removed some fan leaves on the fastest growing stems also to slow them down a bit, a lot of the smaller stems are starting to catch up nicely now. Day 47 Had to top up with 1.5 liters of water, she is definitely drinking even more now...after adding the water (6.0 pH) the pH was 6.1. She is still growing a lot as well, especially those side stems are catching up to the top of the canopy. I should probably do some lollipopping soon. Day 48 Ph was down to 5.8 today, had to top up the water again with 1.5 liter of 6.0 pH water, which brought the pH up to 5.9. She is still stretching quite a bit right now. Also did my first defoliation today, I removed a ton of leaves but it looks like barely anything was removed because there so much foliage 😅.

March 17, Day 76: As written I collected the last three plants. At the moment I got a partial of 224 grams from the first three plants and I think of doubling with the last three. Among the latter is the plant with the largest bud which obviously becomes my favorite. This time I managed to take photographs of the plants before cutting them. With these last three plants I got the most productive plant, the one with the largest bud and the one with the longest bud 😉 For a final report on this strain: The Gorilla by RQS is an excellent strain for anyone who loves a high THC content and I particularly recommend it to growers who pass for the first time from photoiperiods to autoflowering. You will grow very large and very productive plants very similar to photoperiodic ones. This strain branches out a lot and must be defoliated and de-branched. You can grow it well with the SCROG technique, but if like me you have no space problems you can also use the Sea Of Green technique. In conclusion I want to thank all the growers who have followed this my first diary to which I have a happy growth! A big thanks also to GrowDiaries and to the whole team for having created the best social network dedicated to the world of growers 👏💪😉 March 24 Final Report: Hi growers, with this last post I'm going to close my first diary. First I have to say that I am very satisfied with the total harvest, from the last three plants I got 369 grams which added to the 224 of the previous harvest make a total of 593 grams. I started this diary with 8 Gorillas and 2 Cheese. 6 Gorillas completed their cycle in the same time frame, the 2 remaining gorillas showed a photoperiodic genetic predominance, one of them is in an advanced flowering phase while the last one after three months still shows only a few pistils. I'll probably kill her, and move on by putting new seeds in the soil. Unfortunately, where I live is illegal to grow marijuana, otherwise I would have simply moved outdoors, but I can't and must be ruthless. Regarding the two cheeses there is not much left at the end of their cycle and I started to give only water to one of the two plants. Good and happy growth to all! 😜

Day 65 Day 30 Flower Seeing nice stretching and spacing on nodes are still kept tight, strong but small structure. Nice hues coming through on the tops fans. Minor lollipopping and defoliating done today. Not much else to say, Stay high my growmie ✌️🚀💚 Day 68 Day 33 F - Final lollipopping and defoliating today. She really is starting to develope. Node spacing is nice, bud sites forming, nice hues and glistening. Applied feed today. Small compact looking plant, but hoping to see them top shelf grade dense nuggets with this technique and strain 😍- we can hope
