Everything is going well so far. Appears to be we have some stretching happening and i keep thinking Im seeing preflowers but nothing really so far. Probably a month away like last year. Little Catalina wine mixer in the mix is doing fine as well, although kind of spindley. Currently feeding every 3 waterings . Had about 7-8” of rain the last 72 hours, insane tropical conditions, ipm consisting of Lost Coast Plant therapy, BT spray, and de powder for base of plant. Also helps with calcium and hardening up the plant.

I caught up on some reading and decided to defoliate before chasing the second half of this flower. I'm pretty confident that after being in the Nature's Living Soil for a few weeks that she is strong enough to handle the defoliation, but hell, whadda I know?? 9.19 - The DumpsterQueen didn't even flinch at the defoliation. Yay! 9.21 - Just enjoying the show :) 9.22 - Figure I better learn how to best take and edit photos. Probs need some auxiliary non-grow light 😝

D101: harvested the plant! Very happy with the grow :) Wettrimmed all the buds and hung them for drying. i will report after drying and curing!

Ganja Farmer Seeds Mandarine Auto Day 48 Light viparspectra XS2000 dialed in at 75% intensity watering every other day to every two days I am very happy thus far with the mandarine auto by ganja farmer. She has taken to LST very well and the buds are forming nicely. I am hoping this will be a good yielder See you all next week! Happy Growing!

Se realizo podas de bajo y comienza segunda semana de LSD 25. Gran estirón al final de la semana. Temperatura se comienza a elevar hasta valores de 31 grados.

Update coming.

Week 12

Stretch phase is over😁 and the bunch are happy. I gave em a serious defol and lollipop on day 11 of flower. Next week i'm gonna introduce em to Canna Terra Flores🌺 Stay elevated growmies👍

OMG! Miss Gorilla was showing her strength this week and grew a whopping 9 inches this week. The sun is shining and she is drinking 1 gallon of nutrients a day. @Fastbuds website says, "Plant Appearance This lady likes to stay low and will usually grow to a height of 60-130cm. Her growth structure is short and bushy, thanks to her sativa dominance, and will grow one main central cola, with fat side branches all around. Once flowering starts, expect Gorilla Auto to fill out thick and fast, as she begins to pack on size, weight and go crazy with the trichome output. From seed to harvest she is ready in 9-10 weeks, where she will finish with a short and fat appearance." So far, Miss Gorilla is keeping up to her description. I took a magnified picture and it shows me that Miss Gorilla will probably be in flower next week. It looks like she is in the beginning stages of flower. @Fastbuds website said to, "add support around this strain, to help the side branches during the flowering stage" which I have done by LST with her side branchs. I have tied them down to allow light in and support growth. I am feeding her 1 gallon on nutrients a day right now and @Fastbuds website said, She can take a big feed especially during week 3 and onwards." So, I am on target with that information. I also have a pool umbrella protecting all of my plants from the direct sun. As always, please comment and let me know what you think of Miss Gorilla.

Update

Girls are starting to show pre flower. Thanks goodness the light pollution in the pot patch is 0. Will add some bloom amendments next week, although they got some bone meal not too long ago. Did another foliar spray as next week may be the last time I will be able to deliver nutrients in that manner. NEVER foliar spray buds! Unless you want to get bud rot.

This grow is an example of how important is to check your veg time to make sure it doesn't shoot over the lights and over the roof really, overall is good tho. Also i ditched advanced nutrients for a new brand, since advanced nutrients are just costly stickers imho. 11/16/24 bought a new fert , that will not only last me 10 times with a fraction of cost, also it's much easier then mixing 24 different bottles , also all the liquid ferts tends to cristallize so i don't even know if the fert i've applyied in the past (advanced nutrients perfect ph micro-grow-bloom) was all bioavailable (probably not) since the buds looks already bigger after 1 application. Also Ferty 1 Geo has also molybdenum among the microelements wich was not present on advanced nutrients. cheers!

Day 31 veg… Some these girls are looking mutated 🤨 I have really low humidity which i will correct with a Humidifier tomorrow… What are these mutants coming from is it heat stress ??? And also the spots on my girls ? I have been on holiday for a few days so made a pre mixed feed for the girls for my freind to water… Im not aure if the badly mutated plants are worth pulling or growing out still?? Anybody got experience with them ?? Could it be down to really low humidity Girls will be getting transplanted tomorrow.. Check my other cuttings diary Temp 25 day 19 night Humidity high 45 low 20

Here we are guys in the middle of week 4 for some and week 3 for the rest!! Alot of them are going into pre flowering. All 12 confirmed females:) amazing rapid growth they are loving these autocobs:). All smiles everyday gg4 and tangie are stretching so amazing. Lights 24/7 in less then two weeks they will all being going into a 4x8 !

Looking pretty good so far two weeks left the buds are starting to get heavy the stems are bending

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

2 of them got cut on day 66 the last one on day 69 but overall I couldn’t be happier with these babies they all put off some amazing buds & didn’t give me much trouble at all! This is by far my favorite auto of this grow & I will be doing another run with them! If you havnt already go get you some seeds from seedsman you won’t be disappointed! Will be back with more pictures, dry weight & smoke report as soon as she is done drying! Thank you to everyone for following & happy growing friends!🙏🏼🙏🏼✌️🏼🌱

I'm taking a break from recording and posting daily timelapses. Going for surgery in a few days. Will have help but not to document.
