Pow pow and welcome in official start of week 12 (week6 of flower) We are 86 days from seed and 36 days into flowering period now. It’s definitely the strangest part as every day gets longer and longer with waiting 😉 Good part is - we are in total cruise control mode now. It’s the last week girls are getting any food with EC around 2.2 - 4 litres per day each. Dehumidifier pulling out around 6 litres of water every 24h still keeping humidity on high 50’s - it’s not bad. Overdrive is doing its magic - day after first implementation buds started to get bigger and bigger every day 😍 LemonWalker with main branches as big as my arm started showing the weight so needed to instal some quick support above scrog netting using training wire leftovers. Keep it locked and stay tuned with photo updates during the week 🙌

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! 😜

📆 Semana 1: La planta acompaña el ciclo del sol y se adapta al vaivén del clima. 🌞🌿 Los brotes comienzan a tomar forma y los entrenudos se estiran, preparándose para sostener las flores. El verde sigue intenso y saludable, reflejando unas raíces activas y un entorno equilibrado. Las horas de luz van marcando el cambio. Es buen momento para pequeñas limpiezas de hojas bajas y revisar que el aire circule bien entre las ramas. ✂️ Todo se alinea con la temporada. La transición se siente en cada amanecer. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Week 8 – Stabilization & Transition to Flowering 🌸 This week marked a real turning point: after last week’s heavy intervention, the plant finally regained its balance and clearly showed that it was ready to move forward again. No stress signs, no abnormalities — everything is back to normal. The substrate reset did exactly what it needed to. ⸻ 💧 Light Watering – Pure Water pH 6.2 To let the root zone fully stabilize, you chose the best possible approach: ✔️ only pH-adjusted water at 6.2 ✔️ no nutrients added This allowed the plant to: • maintain a stable root environment • avoid any risk of a new salt buildup • use the remaining nutrients in the substrate • recover natural and progressive nutrient uptake The behavior of the substrate and the post-flush reaction confirm that balance has been fully restored. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Status – Everything Is OK The signals are very positive: ✔️ leaves opening nicely ✔️ naturally strong posture ✔️ healthy, uniform color ✔️ growth reactivated smoothly The plant is operating at full metabolic capacity with no remaining stress. It was clearly ready for the next step. ⸻ 🌸 Switch to Flowering – Smooth Transition With a stable, balanced, and vigorous plant, the transition was made with confidence: 👉 Official switch to 12/12 this week. Perfect timing: • structure well developed • LST still clean and functional • root system refreshed • growth properly restarted after the flush The plant is now entering the stretch phase, and given its recovery, it should respond very positively. ⸻ 🔮 Next Steps In the coming days: • keep watering lightly • reintroduce nutrients gradually at the next watering • watch for the first pistils • let the stretch unfold naturally Flowering is starting on a clean, healthy foundation — exactly what you want for strong bud development. ⸻ ✅ Conclusion – Calm Week, Successful Transition After a difficult Week 7 but a perfectly executed rescue, Week 8 shows that everything is back under control: • the plant is 100% recovered • no signs of stress • watering with pH 6.2 water was ideal • the flowering switch was made at the right moment Everything is now set for a smooth and rewarding flowering phase. 🌱✨

Was out of town all week and came back to find the CBD Star in my space bucket not looking good. It looks like a phosphorus deficiency but not entirely sure. Yellow leaves with brown/black spots and dark red/purple stems. I flushed it with 2 gallons 6.5 pH water, re-fertilized, put it out in the sun and defoliated. I defoliated pretty heavily since many of the fan leaves were yellowed and blocking light from the lower bud sites. The center was also getting pretty dense so I carefully removed some of the leaves to help with airflow. Despite the stress, It seems to have bounced back reasonably well. There’s probably irreparable damage given the level of yellowing but the buds continue to grow and thicken. Cheese has absolutely exploded and looks great. It probably doubled in height last week with many bud sites on the 5 main stalks. Excited to see how it turns out.

Den Pflanzen ging es soweit gut. Hatte bemerkt das der wachstum langsam voranging. Ich konntrolierte den EC im Drain. Der war viel zu hoch für die jetzige Vegi Zeit. Das Substrat wurde dann durchgespült und auf den gewünschten PH&EC Wert gebracht. Es wurde noch Substrat leicht nachgefüllt und leicht gedüngt. Durch das Spülen, hingen die Blätter etwas runter. Die Pflanze hat sich mittlerweile erholt. Substrat ist eindeutig noch zu feucht um neu zu Düngen.

Transplanted her to a 5 gallon pot. Gave her some root stimulator, fed her some nitrogen and just look how lovely they are taking off, my plans are to veg her for a very long time.

Esta semana fue solamente de flush 🚿 en esta ocasión decidí usar florakleen para ver con cual obtengo mejor resultado si con este o con flawless finish, lo hice así, primero hice un lavado con pura agua con ph de 6.2 lo hice desde el ultimo día de la semana anterior, fue lavado doble, uno en cuanto se encendio la luz y otro justo antes de apagarse, luego empezando esta semana regué dos dias usando el florakleen y ph de 6.2, el tercer día no regué y al final de ese día le di corte ✂️ y la colgué, actualmente ya la tengo curando, la tuve 10 días secándose con una humedad de entre 50 y 60% para un secado lento.

Niagara auto grew really well. Minor issues along the way. She produced a lot of flower, and has a great smell. It was a 109 day grow which is kinda up there, but has a lot of flower. The Viparspectra P4000 light worked great 👍. She is hanging to dry, waiting to be processed. Will be back with a final weight, and smoke report hopefully In a few weeks. Thank you Viparspectra, and Doctors Choice. 🤜🤛🌱🌱🌱 There is a harvest video on my YouTube channel. The site won't let me upload it. Link to channel below. Or link to harvest video here: https://youtu.be/H87nSZgsqhg Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel. 🍻🌱👍 Happy Growing 🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g
