December 27, 2023 Day 113 This week will focus on burping and trichomes. There may also be a harvest? We shall see. I don't think so though. Most likely next week will be a harvest. Strawberry Gorilla: Day 3 Curing I have grove bags coming in today, so the burping won't be a thing after today. Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 is coming to the end of her life. She hasn't started fading yet, which bugs me. She has been flushing for a week now and I'm not seeing much change. No fade, pistils still kinda sticking out. Not in all places, but some. Maybe I just can't tell. Either way, she looks great and smells even better. She got a full gallon top flush with Flawless Finish. I don't expect to do this much more. Maybe one more watering. I have to check trichomes today. I'll update when I do so. She should be ready for harvest within this week. Maybe a couple days. Number 2 is looking amazing. Her colas are stupid dense and her aroma is starting to really pack a punch. Not much else to do or say today. She's a beast and is beautiful. She got a gallon top feed today. The reservoir seems to be fine. I may check that later today as well. Just in case. She is quite a thirsty plant after all. The funny thing about this plant is the tallest cola. It is absolutely stunning with the exception of the top bleaching, but the rest of it is massive and shaped perfectly. It's the only one that did this. Granted its the tallest, but there are a couple others very close and they didn't do this. I mean, I really can't complain. I did the best I could with what I have. I'd say she will need another week or two of flowering. I'll leave the nutrient regimen alone until I see 50% cloudy trichomes. That will take some time I think. Pistils are still all very much white and clearly shows no signs of readiness. It's wonderful. I can't wait to see what she gives me for yield. Update: So I checked the trichomes on Gorilla Cookies 1 and posted a video. I believe she will be done in the next couple days. I may not be doing another flush after all. I'm going to hold off though. I want a bit more amber trichomes. But days away instead of the week I was originally thinking. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.2° RH: 52.6% VPD: 1.30 kPa December 28, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 4 Curing Got the grove bags yesterday and sealed a quarter pound one with all but a few buds. Those are in a one ounce grove bags that I'll be picking out of while the main yield cures. This stuff is fire! Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 is now in the second week of flush. She still doesn't look ready, but that will change very soon. She needed no watering today. I'll be getting my supplemental lighting in today and will be installing it. However, I'm not sure how much it will help the lower part of the canopy. It will definitely speed up the maturing process, but that's about it. I can't complain though, the whole plant is pretty good. Lower buds are pretty small. Some are a bit airy and larfy, but still can be viable with the last but of lighting for the rest of the week. Number 2 may need a top feeding today. I'm not sure. Her reservoir is about half empty now and the soil moisture is hovering around 20%. It may drink down to 16% but the this afternoon. I'll water if she's low enough by 2 pm. After that, I'll just wait for tomorrow. That's the most likely scenario. Her buds are starting to get really heavy. Most of the outside ones are leaning over and starting to touch the other sides of the tent. The outside is still kinda safe, but that is mostly due to the two other plants stopping it from leaning even more. such a sight to behold. And they are super heavy and dense. Although, I may be seeing the first signs of foxtailing. I expected some because of the light distance, but it's ok. The colas are already super dense. The foxtailing will be just extra bud. I'll separate that in its own bag when it's time to cure. That's if I'm right and will be getting foxtails. Maybe not though, or not enough to warrant a separate bag. My supplemental lighting after being installed should help the lower part of the plant perk up a bit. I found several dead and dying leaves today. Actually, lots. That tells me a couple things I think. First, there's too much foliage in the upper canopy and the leaves are dying from overcrowding. Second, the light just isn't penetrating enough to really get the lower parts of the canopy. That's where the new lighting comes in. Hopefully that fixes the lower canopy and helps it bring more bud. Maybe not huge colas, but at least some tight smalls. We shall see. Update: I ended up top watering Gorilla Cookies 2 with recharge. I'm pretty sure I forgot it the other day. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 55.5% VPD: 1.25 kPa It's still super humid and rainy here, and it's showing in the tent. I'm not all that worried about it. It will drop down later this afternoon like it did yesterday. However, I am of course trying to correct it, but it's not working all that well. Lol. December 29, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 5 Curing Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 may be harvested later today or tomorrow morning. She is just about done. But I want to see how much more she will finish up in the next day or so with the supplemental lighting. Obviously she won't be getting anymore watering. But I'd like to have her dried up a bit more, which should be later today or tomorrow. I may put her in the dry tent later today and let her have a dark period. Maybe I should wait 2 days. Give her 36 hours of dark before harvest. Number 2 should enjoy the supplemental lighting. However, now that it's on and lighting up the whole lower canopy, there are bud sites with branches that have no budlets on them. I really want to remove them. But I'll just let everything go as it is. The goal is to allow the under canopy to mature at the same rate as the upper canopy. I don't think it will do anything with the lower part of the plant. I also noticed that the majority of the leaves are drooping pretty hard. I wonder if that's due to lack of light. We shall see. She doesn't need water today, but tomorrow she will need a top feed and a reservoir refill. She's definitely drinking over a gallon a day now. Cola formation is perfect. They are come shaped and DENSE. The aroma is getting fairly strong now. At least, it's catching up to Gorilla Cookies 1. Sweet, spicy and minty coming off of her. They colas are also leaning a bit more today. So much weight coming on. I honestly can't wait for her to be alone in the tent. The lower lighting will cover the all of the lower lights without anything blocking the light. Update: I decided instead of harvesting today or tomorrow, Gorilla Cookies 1 will spend 2 days in the dry tent for a dark period. Then I will harvest. Also, I spent about an hour combing through the many many branches of Gorilla Cookies 2. I found a bunch of dead fallen leaves. Some that were dying and even a few that were so over lapped they were crushing each other against the SCroG net. So all of that (not much really) came off. I wonder how long the supplemental lighting will take to show a difference in the lower canopy. And what difference will it show? Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 52.7% VPD: 1.32 kPa December 30, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 6 Curing Gorilla Cookies: Number 1 is in her second day of dark. Tomorrow I'll be harvesting her. Nothing else to report. Number 2 is smashing. Her lower section is still droopy like it doesn't have enough of something. I thought it was light. Maybe it's something else? Or maybe I'm being impatient. Either way, she still has some time left to go. 3 to 4 weeks I'd say. She got her full gallon top feed as well as a reservoir refill. Unfortunately, I wasn't paying attention and accidentally dumped 10 ml of Overdrive in one of the gallons. That one went in the reservoir. I probably should have top fed it. Oh well, too late now. Although, I didn't have any dead leaves today. At least nothing I could see. Maybe the light is doing something. Making the leaves stronger, which if I'm correct, also strengthens the bud production. There won't be much down there, but it's definitely better than leaving it as it was. Maybe I'll get an extra half oz out of these little buds. Who knows. Update: I ended up finding some dead leaves in Gorilla Cookies 2 after all. Not too many. So now another day of cleaned up Beasty beast. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.2° RH: 50.7% VPD: 1.34 kPa December 31, 2023 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 7 Curing Gorilla Cookies: Number 1: Harvest Day! And the last day of 2023! We have a 22 oz wet weight whole plant. Not too sure of the total outcome, but I'm thinking 10% weight retention. So 2.2 oz. Dried and trimmed bud. Who knows, maybe I'll get 15% and have a half decent yield of 3.3 oz. Honestly, I should have waited for midnight, but she needed to be harvested for time purposes. I have another plant coming in the dry tent in a few days to a week. I'm hoping I can stretch it out for the week, but I won't be able to wait for Number 1 to dry. Just too much time. I'm thinking a nice 10 day dry. I set the ambient room temperature to 70°. So that should drop the dry tent down about 6°. I'm hoping for a dry temp of 64° or less and the RH to be around 55%. She has some pretty dense top colas, and I cut them off after the weight check. That should help the whole plant dry at the same time. I left most of it intact. Just the 3 tallest colas. Now there's more room in the plant for air, but also plenty of space for those large colas to dry. And they should dry quite nicely. Number 2 looks pretty good. I didn't find any dead leaves. One dying leaf I pulled off, but nothing else. So maybe the supplemental lighting is actually doing something. I don't expect the leaves to really recover from the damage, but at least maybe perk up a bit. Again, I'm not expecting a ton of difference. Just enough to keep the lower canopy as dense as the upper canopy. The lower part of the plant, is more like a lost cause. I should have cleaned up the small budlets as they popped up. Oh well. Nothing to do now but wait and see what she turns out like. I'm not all that worried. The small amount of lower plant growth is minimal compared to the actual canopy which is magnificent. She'll be needing a watering later on today. Definitely a very thirsty plant. She's around 18% soil saturation content. I normally water at no less than 15%. So later today it is. Her colas are getting so dense it's insane. She still hasn't started really swelling yet either. I expect that to start in the next week or so. Also, the worry about foxtails seems to be unnecessary. IF there is any foxtailing, it won't be much or if there's a lot, it won't matter. The buds are already so dense, anything else is just bonus weed. Still, foxtails are a pain in the ass to trim, so let's hope for none. The only cola I'm really concerned about is the tallest one. It's definitely too close to the light. Also, I'm not seeing any stress from the supplemental lighting. I guess there's just enough. I honestly had a feeling that the top light just isn't bright enough to penetrate through the whole canopy. So the tops are getting plenty, but the actual plant may not have been getting enough. Now, that's should be fixed. Again, I see no stress whatsoever. If I notice any, I can just turn the lights down. They are at full blast now, but they aren't nearly as powerful as the main grow light. Still very nice though. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 47.8% VPD: 1.40 kPa January 1, 2024 Day 118 Happy New Year! Strawberry Gorilla: Day 8 Curing Gorilla Cookies: Number 1: Day 1 Drying I have a tray of water on the bottom of the tent with an oscillating clip fan blowing gently over it. It's keeping the RH between 50% and 53%. Temperature is hovering around 65°. Everything looks good. Number 2 is now really starting to swell those colas up. It was visibly noticable this morning. Not to mention the outer colas are all leaning further and further over. They are over the end of the ScrOG net up front, touching the. Far side wall and nearly touching the front of the tent. The supplemental light seems to be doing something. the lower bud sites are starting to look healthy and getting a deeper green color on what's left of the healthy leaves. I think I caught the very end of when the supplemental lights are useful for growth. Now it's just maturing and a final week of nutrients... I think. I'm cutting off the nutrients when I see 50% cloudy trichomes. There should be plenty of orange pistils by then. In which case, won't be for another week or two. Man, these colas are going to be massive! No watering today. Most definitely tomorrow morning. Update: I decided to lower the light intensity to 30%. The PPFD is around 750 now. So that should help prevent the potential foxtailing. I'm not really sure if that will stress her out at all. I don't think it will though. I'll be checking on her daily to see her reaction. I've read light stress can cause 3 finger fan leaves. In my case, there was a point where the light became too bright during the early flowering stage and caused some of these 3 fingered leaves. It seems to have fixed in some spots where the light was raised high enough to fix it in time other places it stopped when the leaves stopped growing. Some of the leaves are facing away from the light. With this current intensity, the leaves should level out and even start to reach a bit. Not sure how long it will take. I read it can take up to 2 weeks to recover. I'm not sure how stressed the majority of the plant was though. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.9° RH: 46.3% VPD: 1.45 kPa January 2, 2024 Strawberry Gorilla: Day 9 Curing Gorilla Cookies: Number 1: Day 2 Drying Number 2 is her beastly self. She got a top feed today. No need for the reservoir to be topped off yet. So, I'm not seeing any difference in the lower light intensity yet. Maybe some of the leaves straightened out, but no reaching or anything like that. The supplemental lighting is doing something. Although the buds down below are tiny, they are weighing down the branches they are on. Still nothing great, but it will definitely be good in the trim bin. I'm sure they will have plenty of trichomes on them. Perfect for gathering kief. Her top colas are also doing quite well. They are super dense and heavy. Swelling continues. Not much difference from last night, but still plenty of time to get massive. I'm also starting to see signs of orange pistils here and there. Which means we are on point. Three or so weeks left until harvest. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.9° RH: 45.2% VPD: 1.47 kPa

Hey there, fellow growers! 👋🌱 I hope you're all doing fantastic as we embark on week 4. 🌿✨ Once again, I'm working with Mephisto seeds, and just like before, they've begun flowering right on schedule. 🌼🕰️ It's truly mesmerizing how consistently they kickstart their blooming phase on week 4, precisely on day 22. ⏳🌸 My plants are thriving and looking absolutely splendid at the moment. 🌿😄 As I continue my journey with autos, I'm still fine-tuning their feeding regimen, steadily making progress. 💪🍃 The growth rate of these plants never ceases to amaze me. One strain that's capturing my attention is the magnificent Forgotten Cookies x Strawberry Nuggets. 🌱🌟 It has grown into an impressively huge specimen. And guess what? I still have three reserved seeds of this remarkable strain, patiently waiting for their turn in my next grow. 🌱🔒 Let's keep the spirit of the green thumb alive and vibrant as we share our experiences. 🌿🌱✨ I'm eagerly looking forward to hearing updates from each and every one of you! Happy growing, my fellow enthusiasts! 🌿🌱🌞 On day 26, I had a bit of a scare as I nearly lost three of my plants due to underwatering. 🌧️💦 However, I swiftly took action and adjusted my watering routine. Now, I'm giving each plant 1 liter of water, ensuring they receive the perfect amount of hydration. It's all about striking that delicate balance. 💧💚 Moving on to day 27, I'm happy to report that the plants are showing signs of improvement. I decided to raise the lights by 5cm, bringing them to a hanging height of 55cm from the plants. Additionally, I've increased the LED power to 100%. Notably, the Forum Stomper x Pink Panama and one of the Toof Decay x Walter White plants appear to be on the shorter side. Each plant has its own unique characteristics, adding an intriguing diversity to the garden. 🌿✨ Stay tuned for further updates. Happy growing, everyone 😎

Week 11 for 9lb Hammer F2, Still on my list of least favourites in my garden 😂 They probably get the least attention in the garden too, they both got quite burnt from the sun this week compared to the rest, so not too heat resistant that's for sure. 😐

Welcome! In this grow we have: 2x Platinum Wedding Crasher 2x Gelato 41 1x Sour OG 2x Lemon Kush Germination/Rooting - 14 Days 9/17/21 - The clones look good in solo cups of soil. We will transplant into 5 gallon pots in the grow tent after they fully root in the cups. 9/18/21 - Looks like the clones are doing well in soil! We are so excited to grow these out. The clones came from a very highly respected grower. 9/19/21 - No ugly growth. All clones look amazing! We upgraded the light to a Mars TSW 2000. 9/20/21 - They are looking good and most likely rooting throughout the cups. I’ll give them a little bit of water today. I want the roots to go looking for the water so I’ve kept them slightly dry. 9/21/21 - They look happy. I will let them just do their thing… We are waiting on our Mars TSW 2000 light to show up anyways. No roots visible from the drainage holes in the cups. 9/22/21 - Looking really healthy and growing nicely. I’m excited for them to fully root in the cups so we can transplant them into the tent. The Mars TSW 2000 should be here in the next few days. 9/23/21 - Looking so good! We can’t wait to get these under the Mars TSW 2000 in the tent. They smell and look great. 9/24/21 - The clones look really good except for one Sour OG. It wilted and died, roots did not take unfortunately. I have a Lemon Kush started from seed we will grow in place of the dead Sour OG. Today we got our Mars Hydro TSW 2000 light. We will be hanging it and updating with pics/videos. 9/25/21 - They look amazing. Lots of growth while rooting. 9/26/21 - So far so good. Watering when the cups get light in weight. In just a few days we will be transplanting. See the video for today, we hung the Mars Hydro TSW 2000! 9/27/21 - Watered them yesterday, they look healthy. The Lemon Kush isn’t a clone, it is from seed. It’s the smallest girl but it’ll perk up quickly. 9/28/21 - Transplant day!! The clones are looking really good and it’s time to transplant into the 4x4 under that Mars Hydro TSW 2000 at 50% intensity. Check out the pictures and videos from today!

Day 21 Veg: All going good so far with the ladies. At their 5th nodes now and beginning to fill the pots out nicely too now. I have started giving them Megacrop at 1/4 strength now. nonsigns of burn or any issues Siz shooter is the smaller of the group and I have removed her 1st nodes to get her to ficus on the higher ones I won't stress her out now as she could be held back if not careful. Strawberry pie developing well amd i have now tied her main at the 5th node to slow the development and allow the other nodes to equal each other for a canopy. .This will be removed and the node allowed to continue to develop. Mexican airline had the same treatment as the pie with a tied 5th node. Her colour is perfect with no signs of any issues. We will see how the method works by the next update hopefully. fingers crossed. be well

The end of week 9. This week was a bit of a struggle due to temperatures. Airco was missing and a replacement was found after a week. The increasing temperatures caused heat stress to all four plants and slowed growth. The buds are now starting to mature and ripen. The fade is starting now. The trichomes are still underdeveloped with 50% cloudy and 50% translucent. EC will be lower again this week. I'm hoping it will be ready before day 80. Check my other diaries for the progress with the other medusa plants.

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.
