Semana con sentimientos encontrados!😂😢 Contento por que voy a poder probar por fin la Ansiada Gorilla Snow ultra CBD y La Katana de Élite Seeds, el que es para mi el mejor banco por su gran trabajo con sus genéticas, por otra parte triste por que hasta que no pase el veranito no volveremos a cultivar por el tema de la calor! Esta semana empiezo a quitar hojas poco a poco, esta es la segunda semana que están con la limpieza de raíz así que para final de semana las cortaré, estoy empezando a ver que algunas tienen un poco de araña roja espero que no se extienda mucho y no me fastidie! Las Gorilla Snow Ultra CBD parece una variedad exquesita, y en unas condiciones climatológicas mas adecuadas debe de ser una pasada en cuanto a su producción de resina, no os quiero contar La Katana...😵 menuda manta de resina tiene encima es una barbaridad!!

End of week 9 One word - Voluptuous! The neighbours are definitely smelling it now, luckily the terpene profile on all of these plants make it smell more like a citrus farm. Another smooth sailing week and I have noticed some of the ladies are drinking less and the leaves are fading more and more every day. I am preparing for harvest as the girls are almost screaming to be cut down but I’ll be patient. I’ll be using my grow tent as the drying room because I can keep the environment in check. Making sure all my effort is not ruined by a rookie mistake such as not drying properly. Removed some dead leaves and thats about it. I’ve basically just been checking my PH and watering through this entire grow. It’s cool being easy and easy being cool!

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 A lot to talk about this week.. Got my lights installed and oh my have they grown. Royal Gorilla has taken a major growth spirt this week, new growth everywhere and getting taller. I spread her out a bit doing some LST. She took it great and ket growing. Amazed with how these lights are working for them. Most likely will do some defoliation next week to clear some space, more light penetration and have the main colas grow. Happy with how this girl bounced back, she had time to recover when they were all under the 150W CFL... and now she's at an even height with the others. Watering every other day.. Hope your week goes as great or better than mine, have a good one growers!

Ak 01, the largest from the start, shows a loss of apical dominance, naturally pruned in a Y shape. A leaf has sprouted instead of a top. This is the first time I've ever seen this. I'll see how it turns out. Showed pistils today at 16 days old. Ak 02 showed pistils at 15 days old; my record until then was 17 days old. I'm scared of that speed.

This was an easy grow, and had some amazing results. This is some of my best homegrown to date ❤️ the ladies were easy to manage, no PM, pests or disease. The root balls were enormous, wasn’t much soil to recover. They got heavy in the end from the weight but managed to stay upright for the most part. They were big stretchers , prepare for that, scrog was a good way to go but some of the eager beavers got away from me, which ended in some massive colas. Overall easy to grow, no surprises and you won’t regret the results! 10/10 ❤️👊🤤

August 23: Just finishing up about 36 hours of darkness, then I'm going to wash the buds, then hang them. Harvesting a bit early due to time constraints but it looks good. The smell is very dank, not a tropical skittles smell, much more like wood glue as I've seen mentioned in other reviews, although I'm starting to occasionally catch a sweeter tropical scent as well. I wanted to leave it a little longer. There were still a lot of white hairs when I started the dark period, but a lot of them seem to have developed into swollen calyxes so I'm pretty happy. I was a little worried they were making seed pods after last time, but I broke one open and all that was inside was red hairs. I'm going to keep an eye on the RH while they're drying and get them into jars and try to wait as long as possible before I start sampling. I can tell this is one of those batches that's going to get better and better if left alone for a couple months. Just did the wash, did 1.25 cups of 34% food grade H202 and a squeezed lemon in a 5 gal bucket. Another bucket of just water to rinse. Then I had a fan on it while hanging in the sunlight from a skylight in the bathroom for 30 min, then put the fan further back and on oscillate, then turned it down an hour later. Left it in there for a few hours, then hung it in the grow tent with everything removed except an oscillating fan, pointed away from the buds. I have the whole plant hanging in the middle of the tent and the tent is holding at 60% rh. Next run I'm going to do 2 buckets and only top once. I might leave them a bit longer in veg too to maximize the height in my grow space, and I'll get a proper 500w bulb instead of continuing to run 1000w bulbs at 50% to lower the heat a bit. The weather will be cooler and I'll only run one air stone in each bucket which should help with res temp. I'll probably foil-wrap the buckets again as well. I should be able to get another run done by the end of the year. I have a White Widow fem seed I've been waiting to use but I'm not sure what else I want to grow yet. Maybe Granddaddy Purp. I'll take some micro pics of the trichomes this week and start curing, and I'll post a proper review in a couple weeks. Happy growing everyone! August 24: I took it out of the tent to inspect. No mold or mildew. The middle of some buds are still pretty wet. I'll keep an eye on it. Wet weight on the stem is 158 grams/ 5.5oz. I harvested a couple branches last week and hung them up. I just ground up one of the buds, left it overnight and vaped some today. There was a bit of Chemdawg Tangerine in the grinder already but overall I got a lot of thick vapour, instant effects, and a really great tropical taste. I busted out the microscope camera and I realized I had a couple buds that fell off before I washed the plant in the H202, and a couple buds that came off in the washing process. It doesn't look like washing the buds took off any of the trichomes. I do seem to find less debris in the buds, not that there was much there before. The trichs look great. Just a light toasting of amber. The washed bud actually seems more dry than the unwashed bud. August 25: there's a real chlorophyll smell coming from the drying room today, it was much terpier yesterday. Leaves are getting crunchy, stems are still fully bendy. I ended up taking it down in the evening. The drying room rh dropped from 60% to 55% and the buds were starting to look too dry based on my last grow. I put it all in a paper bag for the night and I'll put it in jars tomorrow morning. Broken down most of the way it came out to 48-49 grams. From the bud structure, I definitely feel like it would have benefitted from more grow time if I didn't have to travel. More to come. August 26 - the edges of the buds are getting really crispy and the buds are getting tighter. I checked the paper bag earlier and it was 65-70%. I got the impression it was time to put it into jars. I'll keep the lids off for a bit.

Hey farmers, loads of growth this week, still no signs of flower, which is good! My plant is getting quite big, I'm considering lollipopping her, I might take off some lower growth once I see signs of flower, just to make sure I have nice firm buds and not a bush of larfy buds, I know the general rule of thumb with Autoflowers is to not cut anything off, we'll see how it goes. There was a heatwave in europe, as a result this plant got a little hot, and I had to supplement ice and insulate the bucket. She made it through 40 degree weather just fine, however. Later In this weeks timelapse my camera fell down, when picking it up i noticed the lens was covered in trichomes from my last grow, I cleaned it so next weeks timelapse should be less blurry, lol.

G13 autoflower is just about done. Lots of cloudy trichromes, and just starting to get a few amber ones. Next update will be the harvest. She grew well under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2, in the Athena blended line nutrition. Considering the issue I had when she was a young plant. She is full of frosty colas now. I am just on the final wait now. I will likely put her in darkness in about 4 to 6 days, then cut her after 48 hours darkness. Thank you Medic Grow, Athena, and Weed Seeds Express. 🤜🏻🤛🏻💪🏻❄️ Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Grow Diary Update: Week 5 - Pre-Flowering and LST Evaluation Entering Pre-Flowering Stage At the end of last week, the first pistils appeared, marking the beginning of the pre-flowering stage for my plants 🙌 There's much to manage now. To support optimal stretching, I've adjusted the nutrients following 2/3 of the Terra Aquatica feeding schedule: CalMag: 2 ml/l (Starting EC before adding nutrients: 0.45 mS/cm) Grow: 1.33 ml/l Bloom: 1.0 ml/l Micro: 1.33 ml/l The nutrient solution now has an EC of 1.3 mS/cm (638 ppm PPM-500/TDS) with a pH of 6.1. These adjustments aim to promote vigorous growth and prepare the plants for flowering. Weather and Growth With significant weather improvements, my plants are thriving at full speed. Every centimeter gained now counts towards maximizing the final yield, turning around from the challenging weeks prior. Pest Management I'm fortunate not to have encountered pests like spider mites, aphids, or thrips. However, the persistent snail issue remains. Nightly patrols with a flashlight have been effective, and placing old lettuce leaves away from the plants has helped trap and remove snails, ensuring the plants remain undisturbed. LST Experiment Results The two plants I trained with LST have responded admirably, showing healthy adaptation to the bending and vigorous growth. Yet, I'm at a crossroads regarding the upcoming stretch phase: should I continue to tie down branches to maintain an even canopy or allow natural upward growth to potentially boost vertical yield? Your Feedback Matters I value your insights on this critical decision. Should I proceed with low-stress training to control canopy height, or should I let the plants stretch upwards for increased productivity? Your experiences and advice are invaluable to me as I navigate this stage of my grow. Share your thoughts below! Stay tuned as I continue to document the pre-flowering stage and learn from the ongoing LST experiment in my grow diary!
