This should be interesting. Let's see what we can do with this one. Thanks Short Stuff. Auto Gorilla OG is possibly the most exciting strain we have ever had the pleasure of working with. She is tall, incredibly vigourous, smells delicious and has potency levels which are off the hook. We had heard a lot about Gorilla Glue #4 and managed to get our hands on a cut of this super-strong and highly resinous strain which has being causing such a buzz. We then set about crossing it with our favourite Auto OG Kush until we had Auto Gorilla OG.  The results have blown us away… The trichome count is just out of this world with resin ‘gluing up’ your scissors when you harvest her and mountains of sift being produced when you are manicuring the dried buds.  When growing Auto Gorilla OG get ready for some explosive growth from day 1. This strain is really vigourous and pushes out branches and bud sites in all directions while reaching a height of up to 1-2 metres (4 feet). Once she has finished her stretch she will start filling out and the buds will become super chunky and resinous as the trichome production goes into overdrive. The smell has classic OG funk elements with pine scents and earthy aromas but there is also some extra special fruit salad candy in the mix which makes it one of our favourite smelling strains.  The potency of Auto Gorilla OG is not to be taken lightly; she is one of the strongest strains we have ever tried, autoflower or photoperiod. Tests have shown THC levels in excess of 23%. The effect of Auto Gorilla OG is very fast acting with an instant all over body buzz and a very uplifting head-high. We have found this strain great when you need to get stuff done but also very good for the end of the day when you want to wind-down and even get to sleep. The high is long lasting and can go on for 2 or 3 hours before mellowing.  Due to the massive trichome production of Auto Gorilla OG she is the perfect strain for making hash, Rosin or extracts from so nothing is wasted. Auto Gorilla OG is part of our Boutique Line of cutting edge Autoflowering cannabis genetics.  The Boutique Line contains the most up to date autoflowering genetics which are pushing the boundaries of what can be done with autos. All the strains in the Boutique Line are big, tall, heavy -yielders and have been produced’ in-house’ by Shortstuff’s master breeders.

I was growing in closets with the doors open - not a very sealed or sterile environment. I saw some dirt/debris on the leaves so I gave them all a preemptive bath with insecticidal soap just in case it was an early sign of an infestation

The tower now has an extra floor made of pool stick I topped two big buds that reached their 5th node Just changed the water and i m going out for two weeks I added some bloom nutrient into the mix as i'm probably going into flowering 12/12 next week as some girls are too tall All the purple punch died they are fragile I liked them tho since the girl seemed so compact and small with many buds I will try and plant another bunch of purple punch later

Today 7/30/19, day 57 and the start of week 9. I'm still continuing to alternate between days with my pesticide treatment (especially after finding that bug living on one of hulkberries fan leaf) and thrive alive green daily foliage spray as a prophylactic solution against any possible pests or mold going into these last few dog days of veg. I will flush them with distilled ph'd water for two days this weekend in preparation for flower. Then I'll start them on some "flower fuel" bloom booster on top of my secret for success flower recipe at 1/4 of the recommended strength. Outside of that still no adverse issue to report for the end of the 8th week. After my last trim, they both have responded very nicely, I was kind of worried about fat banana stalled growth. But one thing I noticed when I topped her at the 6th node, yes the main stem stopped growing but it developed many bud sites up and down every stem. Whereas hulkberry was topped at the 8th node, she has mainly focused on developing long stems and only 2 or 3 bud sites along her stems. Even though hulkberry in structure, is much bigger than fat banana and has a way bigger root system. Fat banana is bushier and has developed way more bud sites than hulkberry. I can't tell which strain will yield the most at this point only time will tell! Also, a big shout out to "J"@RQS, thank you for the excellent customer service. Another reason why Royal Queen Seeds is top 3 in breeding!!

All looking great. Bud growing. 😃😃😃 Cant believe it. Going nicely. Just a very long patient wait. Eager to finish so can start on RQS Green Gelato auto grow. Hoping this will be complete in next 2 to 3 weeks. Than have to cure. Lower leaves have issues. Top leaves look good. Day 50 increased nutes to max 1.2ml each per 500ml water. Ph6.6. Watered 250ml to see any damage tomo. Run off from soil ph came to 6.4. Day 51 watered 250ml from balance Day 52 watered 100ml watered with nutes ph6.6 Day 53 watered 200ml from balance and lowered lights to 45cm from 80cm. Hopefully more growth tomorrow 🙏

5/23/2023 Week 7- Day 1 of Flower (Day 110 overall) (Day 49 of Flower) There was a couple of small super small sucker buds on the lower stocks that needed to be cleaned off but that was it. Just watching them Flower!! 5/24/2023 Week 7- Day 2 of Flower (Day 111 overall) Tucked a few fan leaves below lower buds but didn't see any blatant offenders that needed to be removed. I typically do start my checks in Week 8 but since this is a new strain I decided to go ahead and do a Trichome check just to see what was what.. Just as I thought nothing but clear glassy Trichomes. I will check again in one week.... 5/25/2023 Week 7- Day 3 of Flower (Day 112 overall) Just letting them grow today!! Smell is getting stronger I would say it is a hint of Pine and a heavier fruity smell. 5/26/2023 Week 7- Day 4 of Flower (Day 113 overall) I did Nothing but took some pics and I enjoyed it!!!! It is nice to be able to just sit back and watch them on auto pilot.. :-) Tomorrow Water Change Day!! 5/27/2023 Week 7- Day 5 of Flower (Day 114 overall) I admit it.. I had to defoliate a little bit.. I looked in while changing the water today and there were just a couple blatant offenders blocking the light from lower bud sites and those leaves they just had to go. Other than that I changed the water and this week is where I drop everything and start preparing them for this last phase of the grow. Loving a few of these buds they are starting to beef out very nicely. I added 36 gallons Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Root DRIP = 1Mil/Gal= 36Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil FloraMicro = 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FloraGro= 2.8Mil/Gal= 100Mil FLoraBloom= 4.6Mil/Gal= 166Mil LiquidKoolBloom= 2.5Mil/Gal= 90Mil TPS SIGNAL= 4.0Mil/Gal= 144Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Water Temp= 70.1 Tent Temp= 76 Humidity =64 ** I have two dehumidifiers running on Ink bird controllers to try and keep the humidity down, In late in flower I like to keep the humidity above 45 but below 60. 5/28/2023 Week 7- Day 6 of Flower (Day 115 overall) Opened the back of the tent today and boy did she need some defoliation love in the back. Other than that I took off a few little sucker buds trying to form. I did start to setup my Dry space as well as did a Trichome Check today and the brown tips are coming in nicely. 5/29/2023 Week 7- Day 7 of Flower (Day 116 overall) Found a few baby sucker buds trying to form so I removed them. Other than that I am enjoying watching her mature. I also started my Reverse of the Clone I took 6 weeks ago in Apr from #3. I am uploading footage of the reversing process for your viewing pleasure.

Insane growth and super quick flower development. Feels like I’ll have some pretty huge buds from these plants.

I lowered the temperature by opening the window in my growing room for a few hours at night. I increased the amount of fertilizer to the suggested amount from Biobizz. I also cut off a few "buds" and leafs. Did some LST and bend some branches like crazy. I try to get a very even cannabis-plant with an even hight. Update 07.05: I tried to do some lollipoping. Hope that the main-buds will now get more energy. If nothing changes in a few days, I will start to go on with trimming. I decided to cut off the lowest branches from the tribe. It was a tough decision, but I think it was the right one.

Hallo, ich möchte mir aus ästhetischen Gründen kein Zelt holen und betrachte die Pflanze als „Zimmerpflanze“. Der Geruch stört mich und meinen Mitbewohner auch nicht von daher. Das ist jetzt mein zweiter Grow mit der kleinen Sansi Growlight, welche ich vorher einfach für Zimmerpflanzen genutzt hatte. Habe den Samen 48 Stunden in nassem Zewa keimen lassen und dann direkt ins Substrat eingetopft.

Plants are looking great. Have really filled in nice. Can already tell they are going to stack the bid on. Gave them a good lower trim a few days ago. I got a new bigger tent and was going to move them but decided to just finish them out in the old one. Really excited see What the next few weeks bring. I’ll update soon. As always 🍻
