Last vegetating week, I'll flip tomorrow on the 14th. I got an auto drying in the tent which is the only place where I can do it, so she's now waiting for let's hope less than 3 days in my bathroom. I fixed the light to the ceiling and to the walls in the same set-up as in the tent. With one less plant in the tent, I was also able to expand the stems to the sides to let more light in the center. Week breakdown: 2021-03-07: Nothing to read. 2021-03-08: Nothing to read. 2021-03-09: I could finally identify one male plant and removed it from the tent. Plus the other auto plant in the tent is almost done. I will do the switch at the end of this week. 2021-03-10: Nothing to read. 2021-03-11: Nothing to read. 2021-03-12: Last feeding before the flip, still with 8ml of each in 2L of water. 6.5pH 23,7C 1284ppm 2021-03-13: She's now in the bathroom waiting for her sister to dry in the tent. I reshaped the LST to expand the stems to the sides to let more light in the middle and I will flush her tonight and defoliate one last time.

* ******* Week 10 - June 13 to 19, 2020 - Days 64 to 70 from germination * Adding in the pictures right now.......... She continued to ripen this week and really stated to push out the frost at the end of the week when humidity was dropped to 50% and lower at night. She still has lots of nutrients in her to eat up as her leaves are pretty green. Her colas are starting to form points now and swelling/ripening.😍 She is done being fed this week and will start to feed on her leaves and flush out the nutrients👍😃 On Wednesday she was given at 32L flush of plain water to help lower the pH further and since at the end of her life it’s okay to hit the medium hard. She took the flush well and fattened up more. Frost also noticeably increased over the days after.......or the tricombs turned more cloudy😋😋 She has fought off all pest and environment issues and is very stable. She has liked to dry out a fair bit before her next watering as she was outwardly the most happy when pot was kept light. They were switched to a 20 hour light cycle at mid to end of flower and she took that well and swelled further. Opened her up on the inside to the let the light in and she has rewarded with fat little nugs on the lower sites!! She liked the LST and would push harder the day after being tied down. Very nice little girl in the grow portion of her life!!! Smoking part is looking very promising for yield and potency.........that will have to wait😉 Little more detail......... June 13/20 - Day 64 - 1.5L plain water 275ppm, pH to 5.1 - lower pH to help the building numbers in the pot - she is not taking up much right now.....slowing down a bit? - She bulked up a fair bit overnight though.....seems to have liked yesterday's feed. June 14/20 - Day 65 - dry out day - KK swelled even more last night. She is a bushy little girl! - tips forming slowly on the tops and moving away from the button look......ripening👍 - suspect she will be the first one done? - raised the lights roughly 3" little less intensity right now and leaf temps a little high. June 15/20 - Day 66 - Flush day today.....need to know where we stand with pH. - 32L (8 gal) of plain water given, 3.4pH and 280ppm going in. - in the trays before flush was runoff with a pH of 7.4 and ppm of 1800. (Both are too high for this stage of growth......6.4 and 900 would be nicer) - runoff numbers after were 6.9pH and 380ppm - had to stop there as I am using over 30 gallons of water today to flush all the girls......I am out of water😡 - environment holding at 80 degrees and 61% humidity. June 16/20 - Day 67 - dry out day.......you think :) - green leaves and red hairs started forming more.....she is ripening now.....no more feed.....only low pH water. - squished a couple of buds and she is firming up. June 17/20 - Day 68 - 3.5L watering today.......decided to give Rezin and Liquid Weight @ 1.5ml/L = 285ppm with a pH of 4.0 - yeah.......no NPK but I did give some supplements to help with tricombs and flavour. - there was lots of runoff water.....didn't bother to check it.......it will be high. - need to work on lowering the temps and humidity a bit more now as well.....80 degrees is too high now......76 and 55% is the goal. June 18/20 - Day 69 - dry out day - for the most part the girls were left alone today.....raining outside so humidity is rising. - lowered the light again......raising my temps to 78 degrees though........need an air conditioner in the lung-room! June 19/20 - Day 70 - 2L watering with Rezin, Liquid Weight, and Sensyzime for enzymes to finish cleaning up the roots......more salt I know.....but not too bad...bigger win. - 385ppm and 4.5pH.........left the pH alone. Didn't want to add pH adjuster with the enzymes being added to her. - Her top leaves are lightening and she is feeding on herself....perfect. - the rest of her though appears to be slowing down......swelling on the inside hopefully👍 - frost levels the last 5 days have really increased!! - raised the light back up again.......don't want fluffy buds so will reduce the temp and accept a little less intensity. That is it for week 10! We are flushing her and trying to keep her cool now💪

The three small ones are in on day 14 , the bigger one is 5/7 days ahead. I gave them all a top dressing with a couple of grams each if bio grow from Greenhouse feed. Liking the @spiderfarmled , does not get to hot and seems brighter. I moved the light down to 40 cm , above the tallest plant.

Week 12 - Flower Week 7 12. of Feb. Day 78 - Flower Day 43 Reservoir steady in the mid-1.6 EC range. pH behaving normally after corrections. Drinking roughly around a liter per 24h. The tops are mostly orange. Very few white pistils up top. That’s what’s dominating my attention. It feels early for them to look this mature. I start questioning whether the late-January catastrophe pushed her into finishing prematurely. Trichomes look mostly clear on closer inspection - not milky like I first thought. That’s important. 13. of Feb Day 79 - Flower Day 44 Pre top-off EC dips slightly - small sign of uptake. pH stable in the mid-5s after correction. Still fixated on the topmost crowns. They look static. I compare pictures from a week earlier and struggle to see obvious swelling. That’s frustrating. 14th of Feb Day 80 - Flower Day 45 Numbers stable again. EC mid-1.6s, pH mid-5.8s after top-off. Drinking steady but not aggressive. I consider whether development has stalled. Buds look healthy, not deteriorating - but not exploding either. 15th of Feb Day 81 - Flower Day 46 The mental tension is still there. Considered drastic action (flush), but decided against it after reviewing the data. Numbers weren’t extreme. Plant wasn’t collapsing. Chose stability instead of panic. EC held in the mid-1.6 range. pH stable. Drinking continued. EC trends stable. pH predictable. Roots healthy. No worsening damage. 16th of Feb Day 82 - Flower Day 47 00:15 pre top-off: pH 5.5 EC 1484 She drank just over a liter. After top-off: pH ~5.8 EC mid-1.6 This is the first real shift in perspective. I notice that underneath the canopy, popcorn buds and mid-level sites still have completely white pistils. That’s a crucial observation. If she were truly finishing early, those would not be fresh and white. This doesn’t look like shutdown. It looks uneven maturity between canopy layers. 17th of Feb Day 83 - Flower Day 48 00:10 pre top-off: pH 5.73 EC 1564 After circulation: pH 5.75 EC 1620 EC meter seems to show too low values at first. Drinking 1L again. This is the day I actually see bulking happening. Not on the very tip of the highest tops - but right below them. The secondary crowns are stacking visibly. Calyxes swelling. Structure thickening. I realize I’ve been staring at the most stressed tissue (the very tops affected by the earlier light/EC incident) instead of looking at the plant as a whole. 18th of Feb Day 84 - Flower Day 49 Pre top-off: pH 5.92 EC ~1.6-1.7 (meter slightly inconsistent but trend stable) After top-off: pH 5.87 EC 1620 She drinks over a liter again. The brown pistils on the very top now feel less like “premature finish” and more like scars from the January event. Lower pistils remain white. Calyxes are not collapsing. Bud density is slowly improving. This week ends in a different place than it began. Not explosive. Not perfect. But alive, feeding, stacking - and very much still in flower. Next week should hopefully be all about stability and bulking.

Not very dense buds but stickier than hell with a great smell. Pretty much all that Mephisto says it is in their description.

Buds are starting to really stack up. Especially on the blue Cookies. The zombie kush plants are also looking really good but the size and also the color isn't as nice. The one blue Cookies plant that is turning purple tho is throwing me off because the blue Cookies plant doesn't turn purple. From what I can see from crop king is that platinum cookies and purple kush are the only ones that turn purple like this so I'm not sure if it's just a genetic freak or a different strain. The platinum og plants tho still look worse for wear and not getting much better. Hopefully they end with something tho. Well that's all for now so happy growing.

Greetings my dear Jungletamers, So a major surprise came when @MarsHydroLED contacted us and asked if would like to try out their new SP 3000 light. Being a fan of Mars Hydro for years, we of course accepted their offer. We are totally in love with this light. I was when I saw it in another grower's setup and was in awe of its output and results. So with much pride and thankfulness for the presents the Universe bestowed on us, in the form of MarsHydroLEDS offer and the bountiful harvest of the last grow, (which I am thoroughly enjoying btw, such a great weed to have grown ourselves) we start out on a new adventure that we can't wait to share with you. With many lessons learned from the previous grow, a mighty producing strain in the form of Expert Seeds Gorilla Glue #4, a.k.a Expert Gorilla's and a tweaked super soil mixture, we are setting out to hopefully get over a gram per watt, preferably 1.5. The Setup A 4.5 (140 cm) x 2(70) x 6.2 (200) grow tent, giving me a .98 m2 workspace. This space is customized to my needs. A standing fan will provide airflow through the whole grow, a top fan will help guide cooler air past my lights onto the grow. 3 56 ltr pots will be the home for the plants when they are 2 weeks old, up to then in smaller jars. The Light The leading role and star of the show will be played by the Mars Hydro SP-3000, so kindly provided by MarsHydroLED, which we will test and review here and I might say, endorse. I'm very careful with who I endorse and support these days, but a company with that many wins in design, I'm talking ever since their first range came out in 2009 these guys have been raising the bar for the whole industry, I did not hesitate to support this leading brand. If you want to compete with these guys, you better bring some quality AND affordable pricing. Why do I endorse the SP-3000 without ANY hesitation? It is seriously THE BEST light on the market in this price range and size group. It has an enormously effective output in U/Mol and with 30% less energy waste comparing to older LED lights. Prove me wrong! And with a company holding a considerable market share selling thousands of units every month, competing on price and quality, one would think that customer service would suffer. Of course, also Mars Hydro is not perfect, but check the sheer amount of people that not only praise the light but also the service received, should the light somehow not perform up to par. It is this dedication to their customer base that made this company have a fanbase... Yes, a fanbase with a website and a wiki. So if you are looking to buy new lights, check out the END OF SUMMER OFFER at the Mars-Hydro Global Store on Aliexpress: https://marshydroled.aliexpress.com/ 👈 Check their offers but also their score, they ship from a warehouse near you so you don't have the extra import fees!! Cut out the middleman and have a deal on these lights!! At the moment I write this in August 2021, the lights are 408,20 euro when sent from Germany to the rest of Europe, that's 40 euro cheaper than the other Mars outlets, BUT EVEN 60 euros cheaper than ordering at a grow store!! The Strain: Experts Seeds - Expert Gorilla feminized regular. Don’t let the name fool you because Expert Gorilla is suitable for growers of any skill level. However, you do need to be an experienced smoker because Expert Gorilla is one of the most potent strains on the market. Lineage: Chem Sis x Chocolate Diesel x Sour Dubb Popularity: Extremely Popular Flavor/Aroma Profile: Chocolate, Earthy, Fuel Yield: 400 g/m2 Stress Tolerance: High resistance to disease Potency: 24% THC Flowering time: 58 - 63 days The Soil: Those who saw my Monstercropped Gelato #33 grow (you should see it if you didn't, I'm so proud of that grow), know about my super soil and organic nutrients/ permaculture tea combo that starred in my previous diary. Because of the great results, we are going to use the same recipe, adjusted some more with some new ingredients that will complete the mix and give an even more sustained super soil buffer. 20% Atami Bi-grow (very similar to ocean forest) 20% Atami worm castings 20% Atami Coco Coir 10% Hydrocorn 10% Peat powder 1 cup Fossil seaweed chalk 1 cup bonemeal 1 cup bloodmeal 1 cup Microlife 3-4 teaspoons of epsom salt 3 cups of activated biochar (activated with our own permaculture tea) I just made layers, starting with hydro corn on the bottom to aid airflow/run-off. On this I started layering the coco coir, Bi-grow, peat, castings, and amendments in a way that the more mature the plants get, the more phosphorous and less nitrogen they will find. Every time I made three layers, I would mix them by hand. This way we simulate natural soil, which consists of humic layers, composting plant waste, fungal and microbial life, and nutrients from fossilized sources. The Nutrients I will start with just adding 6.4 PH water, although this soil should buffer ph itself and regulate, after 4 weeks, I'll slowly be adding: - Biobizz Grow - Plagron Alga Grow - Biobizz CalMag - Biobizz Flower - Plagron Alga Flower - Biobizz Topmax - Melasses The Tea Some of you might remember the permaculture tea from my previous grow, I have a short video in my harvest page showing how we make it), it will star again in this grow. - (Rain)water - Comfrey (whole plants) - Dandelion leaves - Roots and leaves from the earlier grow - Minor periwinkle (Finca minor) is a plant we have in our garden, it contains an alkaloid that is associated with increased brain function but also is a light toxin for wee beasties and other unwanted guests like gnats (who hate it). - When flowering I add some wood ash to this mix Thank you for checking in on one of my grows again! Thanks for all the love on my previous grow, check it out if you haven't seen it!! Hug Bud

wow wow !!!! 404 gr ! from the suitcase!!!!!!!258 gr of wet dried buds!!!!!!! I am impressed with the result, and I don't really believe that I will ever be able to improve it :) It was a truly amazing journey with FastBuds Gorilla cookies auto, my house is filled with a wonderful sweet smell, the buds look really full and very very shiny :) I also collected a lot of sugar leaves from which I will make bubble hash:) the girl coped with high temperatures and high humidity throughout her growth, which is why I was afraid of rot, but everything went well!!!! She is amazing. smoke review and dry weight will be up very soon, good luck to everyone :)!!!
