Welcome to week 5 of veg. of the Royal queen seeds Royal Gorilla pre-flowering hairs visible.... some stretching... but flowering did not set completely yet I'm starting to like the size of this Royal Gorilla, hope the side branches will be alike.

2 months and 3 days this auto is a killer, I put her in a 5 gallon pot, because why not? well first of all her root ball was tiny i'd be surprised if she went all the way down actually. You'd easily fit her into a 2L pot and get a ball park result. I might add a few in my next grow to fill the space beween the tray and the wall I have just enough space for one row in a 4x4 that's like 8 plants lol . If i do that I'll cross her side colas in front of her so there's no damage with the tent when it get sucked in when it's closed. What I really want to do is to do a full tent with these little pots, maybe do it SOG coco, because you can get a shit ton of the small pots in there then pull a decent amount of bud - strength in numbers! The harvest went okay, went in chopped it down at like < 5% ambers all milky not clears. hung it up to dry, it was moist the first three days but then on day 4 it dried out almost instantly, i pulled it and jarred it with boveda 62% (I couldnt find the 58s anywhere??) stems and all, prayed for 10 days, didnt open them, no burping necessary, not really with what happened and the boveda in there. Came out incredible. Strong, like I said, really smooth smoke, snow white ash, and it litterally tastes like grapes. Can't believe it how much it tastes distinctive, i'm guessing the rudiralis cross really supports the grapey taste. when you're pulling the smoke is sweet and a grapes, and it's not other berries, it's really grapes. For sure one of the better smokes I've ever had, and I smoked some GSCxGrape cross recently, these reminded me of that smoke but better on the grapes-side of things, still earthy though maybe a hint of coffee... The plant itself grew just like other rudiralis-dominant strains I've had, straight up in a pinetree shape, side colas grew almost as tall as the main cola the end. She had really thick indica leaves, amazing green colors on the stems even after the chop, that contrasted with the incredibly dark purple and royal purple flowers. Straight from the start of flower the purnurples started creeping straight from the flower nodes onto the leaves. Their coloration process was really amazing to watch happen purples literally bleeding onto the leaves. as she flowered, her nodes opened up in typical "strawberry"-strain fashion, like making those nice open flowers, full of trichomes and sugar leaves covered in trichs and oil. Loved it ! She didnt really smell that loud until the very end then she really smelled strong like lemon peel, a testament to how strong she actually is. If I find the space, i'll try to make some extracts from a full tent, probably the best vape juice anyone ever has tasted.

Week 1 New diary alert and I know This is your first time so.. welcome to my garden. Super excited to say I'm sticking with BARNEY'S FARM for this summer grow season. If you have a question drop me a comment please ! Im new let me know what you think, help a brother out. Happy Growing everyone Cariboo_OG

Since now the plants are ok...zero deficiencies or problems Hopefully next week the plants will start flowering stage.

Realy looking forward to this grow. Two of my all time favourite blueberry and cheese combined in one plant. Thank you royal queen seeds lol. So I decided to give RQS starter pack a go. But I did modified it a bit. It’s a simple starter you make up 1l of water add the sachets stir then soak the tray for 10 secs and put seeds 5mm into the soil then wait 5 days. Well I grow in hydroponics with jiffy cubes as starting cubes so I just soaked jiffy cubes in the solution then placed seeds right in. Blow me down 3 days and 3 of the lady’s are out the soil well Impressed how well it worked and easy for this noobie grower. So far impressed with RQS got my eye on their pineapple Kush for next gen or the hulkberry maybe even north thunderfuck... to many to pick from will have to think it over lol. But happy with this starter kit and all going good so far.

Soo the blue cheese has hit 43 days from germination and flowers are starting to form up. I should’ve done low stress training on this, hopefully next time. Temps around 29 during the day and 26 at night. Humidity is around 41%

Day 43 from seed now and turned out alright from what i thought. At first it was a small plant but lets see what if yields at the end. So far with high temps its doing good.

These plants are growing mad for what they are! They hit 43 days old from seed. Im still feeding once a week and watering with tap water every two days. Im having abit of heat issues but they should be alright. As long as theres air flow going around.

Day 43 and for a plant this age they’re looking well. All other Plants looking all healthy too. Now looking into it i should of done some low stress training. Im having abit of temperature problems but its all good. The max it gets is 29 degrees Celsius.

Week 4 of flower just started, Everything is under control, I gradually remove bigger fan leaves as I want as much light on buds as possible, I’ve added small led at the pot level shining upwards on all the popcorn buds, just testing this idea. Any one tried that before ? I’ve decided to transplant all the plants in veg into final 11l pots, 2 smartpots and 3 airpots (no point for bigger pots since they are clones and don’t develop big roots), Another 4 weeks on veg, flip on cfl and then I’ll be moving them straight under 12/12 cmh In a week I’ll be sprouting new seeds from RQS - Kush - Medical mass - AK47 - Cheese Hopping for baby gorilla to spread her wings quicker, she is very shy ☺️ Have a nice weekend folks

Bluedream flowing through week 6 offlowering another week of nutrients then Istart flushing her down till around week 9 and half 10 then chop her :) Terps are actually really good on smells super fruity diesel :)

Second week of flush and the girls are looking ready. I’m always learning though and will definitely have to be more savage with my lollipoping in the future as I’ve got a fair bit of larf on lower branches. Almost harvest time 😍😍

Buds are finally fattening up! I've decided to open her main stems a little bit, lack of space in the grow tent made training almost impossible but using this plate method I'm able to expand her arms while keeping her in a quite small surface. Guess what, the plate works really well, it was easy to set up and it helps a lot improving the airflow around the main colas.

Gorgeous dense & sticky buds, her smell is fruity/sweety, she is 100% healthy. Close to the finish line, this run was pretty easy! I still don't know the name of this strain but I already know I'll drop some more seeds 👌

She drinks a lot and drives all her energy to the buds, they are getting really huge 😎 I noticed some slight foxtailing on the upper colas but this is probably due to my QB being too close so I'll dim the driver down to 75% to end the flowering cycle of this GoldBarKush because I have no more vertical space left. The orange smell is delicious! Can't wait!

Dense rounded buds everywhere, getting frostier day after day! A few more weeks and I'll be doing some water hash with her sugar leaves, they are covered with resin so I got myself some Ice-o'lator bags. Wait and see! 👌

Next week's feed ready in the bubbler bucket and two new addatives added this week , So as you can see the defoliation of those very sad looking fan leaves has bought this lady into life this week , Those droopy leaves where blocking all light down too anything else living , She is now shooting out strong branches that are reaching up too the lights , One thing I love about this kush strain is there super thick branches , Really into the massive stretch now I am having too move the climate control probe and thermostat every day now and these girls will soon cover the WiFi camera too , probably growing around 2 or 3 cm per 24 hours at this stage , " day 4 of week 5 " The tent is filling up nicely but the fbt7 is a clear winner so far , be is my cock up of snapping the main stem and fixing it ? The ftb7 is double the size of all the other 3 plants and is a very nice little bush , the smoothie has been very consistently healthy and vigorous and is around 22cm now and is one I did not lst , the BlackBerry has finally woken up and is now the same height as the others another plant I didn't lst , the c1 started very vigorously and was strong , them week 3 started too show signs of very early flower , she is now is fully fledged flower at week 5 and looking fantastic , and I was lucky enough too get all the side branches out and bend over the main cola too the netting and has made up for in lst what it lacked in size due too the early flowering ,
