This week, I started to notice deficiencies. Struggled to specifically diagnose them and I'm still not entirely sure I have... but I believe they're calcium deficiencies from watering with Reverse Osmosis H20. So, I brewed a compost tea for veg plants, and added some extra calmag. They seem to be responding well. Also started low stress training this week.

End of week 6 flower Looking delicious Flushing for the next week or two depending how quick she yellows up Though she looks ready

Training This week was the start of the LST and, with that, a continuous gentle defoliation to ensure that the new shoots are getting a lot of direct light. Leaves (especially sun sails) growing over new shoots are either pressed down or, if necessary, removed. When LSTing, I always focus on gently bending the branches in the desired direction every day, without disregarding the natural structure of the plant. Once they reach a length of about 5 cm, I start to secure them with training stakes(*1). This way, the risk of damage (as well as overall stress for the plant) is kept to a minimum. Setup The lamp is now at max. intensity and min. distance (35 cm) at around 650 - 700 PPFD. (*1) I built the training stakes myself to match my needs (enough length, natural material, no sharp edges, slightly downward facing angle). Pests + Living Soil + Environment The combination of nematodes and sand seemed to work immediately, because the number of Sciaridae quickly dropped to about 2 - 3 adult flies per day. Still, on day 40 (8 days after adding the sand) I removed it again, because: - it was rather intended to support the nematodes (fewer new larvae), - the Sciaridae had fallen to a level that seemed acceptable, - it would keep the soil too anaerobic and moist in the long term. The decision also had a positive effect on the RH(*2) (approx. 10% increase). (*2) Relative humidity fluctuated slightly from day to day, but generally remained around 50%. Although removing the sand (at the end) of this week increased the RH, I only evaluated this ‘new average' RH from the following week onwards. Environment + Plants The stabilization of the environmental conditions and the increase in light, have allowed the plants to grow intensively this week. In the beginning, the relative humidity was still a little lower than I would like, but acceptable since the plants were still quite small and didn't need to be watered as often (large amount of substrate with corresponding buffering effect to keep the plants healthy. Plants During the seedling phase, I observed slight deficiency symptoms that at first glance looked like a nutrient problem (potassium, calcium, ...?). Since I cannot control the nutrient content as precisely as I could with a hydroponic system e.g., and the damage was manageable and occurred during a phase in which I also stressed the plants by allowing them to become too dry, I simply ignored it... with success. Since the system has been back in balance, there have been no further incidents of this kind. *Gorilla Z Auto was 20 cm tall, Mimosa Cake Auto 12 cm. (Pre-)Flower I have also been able to observe pre-flowering, which is consistent with my other observations. [Autoflowering genetics in particular do most of their growing during this phase, which lasts just under two weeks, roughly starting from week 3 - 5.]

Diese Woche werde ich sie in die Blüte schicken 💚🍃hat sich gut entwickelt 👌 und schönen Triebe gebildet! 🍃

Day 77 The plant looks strong and healthy overall. The canopy is filling out nicely, and the leaves have a rich green color with no major signs of deficiency or stress. The training net is doing its job well, helping spread the branches evenly and create a flat canopy. This will help improve light penetration once flowering begins.

Started to give pk13/14. Its day 35 now.

Week 23: Part of the plant has been stunted or the roots are having trouble in the soil. I haven't figured out the cause of the problems but I'm guessing it is a mix of stress, from when I split the main shoot first week of flower, nutrient burn/toxicities, fungus gnats/pests. Other than the foliage problems the buds are filling in nicely and the hairs are beginning to turn from white to orange.

SHE IS FASTER THAN I THOUGHT, AND I HOPE SHE WILLNOT BE STRESSED BY TOPPING

With an average THC content of 24%-26% and some of her phenos having observed to contain as much as 30%, Gorilla Glue is an incredibly potent but at the same time still quite balanced smoke. Her powerful effect is incredibly relaxing, just the right thing for stress relief or if you want a superb smoke to help you sleep at night. But her smoke doesn’t just make for awesome chilling at night time, she’ll also give a happy and uplifting feeling at the same time. Because of Gorilla Glue’s potency, she has also become a favourite strain for medicinal users who want a potent herb that can help them with pain relief, depression, sleeping troubles and many other health conditions. With her flavour that blends earthy and sweet notes with hints of lemon and woody pine, Gorilla Glue makes for a superbly tasting smoke on top of her powerful effect.

Hello this is the end of week 3 and the beginning of week 4 of flowering. Got in here and did some trimming up a few days ago. Got rid of most of the sucker branches and bottom fanleaves that don't get light. I also trimmed some of the top fanleaves that block the light from reaching into the middle. The more light a bud site gets the bigger the bud... I took a lot off so the plant will slow it's growth for a few day, while it heals... but then the resin production will take off. You can see in the pics the smallest bit of resin starting on the top leaves. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.

D-77 : Girls are going well and they are beautyful but, they are growing alot less than expected. They are 30cm behind they should be. I hope it is because of all the effort I made on the mainlining process at the beginning....

CASH EXPRESS 03.01.2025 Tag 44 / 19.02.2025 Die 6 Woche ist erfolgreich erreicht! Das Umtopfen war erfolgreich es gab keine großen Schäden an den Wurzeln. Zwischenzeitlich habe ich noch mal gedüngt und einen Wurzelaktivator in das Wasser hinein gegeben. Gerne nehme ich Ratschläge von der Community an.

Nun ist es offiziell. Meine Pflanzen blühen. Obwohl beide so unterschiedlich sind, die ist 50 und die andere 40cm groß, haben beide gleichzeitig angefangen zu blühen. Beim nächsten mal gießen kommt dann der erste Dünger dazu. Plagron alga bloom. Ich nehme wie manche Leute empfehlen nur die Hälfte, da es sich um automatics handelt. Am Samstag habe ich nun das erste Mal gedüngt. 5ml auf 1l Wasser Pragron alga bloom. Sonntag habe ich mein Pflanzen gemessen. 70 und 48cm. Meisterlich Ich werde eine Woche nicht bei meinen Pflanzen sein können. Sie werden von Dritten gepflegt werden. Also Wasser und Dünger geben. Denke zweimal Wasser wird reichen. Dann nächste Woche wieder mehr.

Herzlich Willkommen zum Ende der Woche 5/BT35 Die Pflanzen sind sehr am bulken. Ich gieße zurzeit 1,6 Liter alle 2 Tage um den Livingsoil konstant feucht zu halten. Beim öffnen des Zeltes empfängt mich ein sehr frischer zitroniger Geruch. In 2 Wochen sollen die Pflanzen fertig sein, ich bin sehr gespannt.

Welcome to week 11 I feel like I may be out of the woods as far as worry is about pollination so far she shows no signs of being pollinated. I have continued with my LST scrogging in order to keep the canopy even and not let it get too high I don't want to keep the distance from the light. Other than that she shows no deficiencies and is growing very nicely if a little slow LOL

This was a funny journey. It reacts better to scrog than LST, lst one only yielded (wet) 159g while the one with scrog yielded (wet) 346g. Unfortunately I got mold on the top bud of the lst plant, high humidity is very dangerous to this strain (atleast for me was). After drying for 1week and curing it for other week I decided to try it out and I got pretty happy with it. First grow and the buds taste very fruity and sweet, from 0-10 the ash is probably an 8. I am excited to try the other one out since it received much more light (it has 17colas). Loved to grow this ones, highly recommend this strain for beginners. I'll update the outcome whenever they dry. Thank you everyone for supporting me on my first grow. 87g dried, not bad for 105W (tgl star 100), taste is pretty good and It gives an uplifting buzz.

Just did some pruning of the lower level leaves that were yellowing or about to fall off. Found one of those pesky army worms 🐛 on one of the ladies growing in a 1 gallon pot, wasted no time putting an end to his career as a cannabis connoisseur ☠️ ⚰️. Other than that everything's as normal as can be I guess.
