Hello fellow farmers. Nothing special this week just consistent growth. I tell y'all there were no problems at all with this strain from the beginning of veg and throughout flower cycle so far. The strain gorilla banana eats good and grows very steady with slightly moist soil that's Top dressed with Alfalfa meal and high phosphorus fruit bat guano. They like the steady supply of nutrients and the buds are getting much denser. I can't wait to enjoy these lovely plants. These ladies seem to be getting ready to be harvested in a week or two.

Not much to report this week, strung up the yoyo’s on D60, stretch seems like it’s almost over, some of the colas at the back are a couple inches too close but I can’t really get at the back anymore (usual issue with my set up). All bud sites are forming well, time to sit back and watch them bulk up over the next couple weeks šŸ˜Ž

Hey now, so week 2 is in the books, she is growing slow but steady, I will transplant her to an airpot on Monday, top her on Friday, then again the following week. Weather and conditions are perfect for seedlings, warm and humid. First time running anything from the ladies at Tastebudz in the UK, but so far so good. I am still feeding just plain H2O in Pro Mix Seedling Starter blend, but will be transplanting to a mixture of 65/35 Coco Coir/Perlite here in the next few days and will begin fertigation at that time. I plan to feed Cal Mag and Maxi Grow to get this thing going. Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! šŸ’Ŗ Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

19.1.25: I have watered all plants with 300ml of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3, with 1/3 jar of black strap molasses with Ecothrive Biosys-1g. I am looking to increase the sugars for microbial life and plant processes. It'll also add some extra Calcium, Magnesium and trace elements. I also, watered all plants with Bloom nutrients. Using dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients: (ml/l) ;- ā™” 2ml Cal-Mag ā™” 2ml Ecothrive Flourish ā™” 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ā™” 2ml Biobizz Bloom ā™” 2ml Biobizz Top Max ā™” 1g of Ecothrive Biosys I watered around 1-3 litres per plant. Depending on size and requirements. I'm still spilling water containing the nutrient solution. šŸ™„ I am using this to rub into the leaves. I think a nice foliar massage won't do any harm, make the most of the situation. The plants have become very hungry and thirsty. Increased the water by double. I ran out of my TNC cal-mag. I decided to order the Xpert Nutrients brand, as I like their products. It isn't organic as far as I can tell, but I don't think it matters too much to me, to be honest. I also want to top dress this week, so I bought some Green Leaf PK bud Booster dry amendment from Amazon, too. I'll mix it with canna coco, perlite, worm castings, and Ecothrive Life Cycle. 24.1.25: I went ahead and top dressed all the plants with 4.5 gallons of my supersoil custom mix. This consists of the following substrate and dry amendments: ā™” 60% Canna coco ā™” 20% Worm castings ā™” 15 % Perlite The remaining 5% consists of the following dry amendments;- ā™” 10g Ecothrive Biosys ā™” 1 Tsp RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ā™” 3 Tsp Vitalink Bat guano ā™” 4 Tsp Diatomaceous earth ā™” 8 Tsp Ground Cinnamon ā™” 10g Green Leaf Bud Booster PK booster. ā™” 3 Tsp Ecothrive Life Cycle. •Worm castings for some all round nutrition. •Cinnamon for mildew and bug repellent. •Canna coco base substrate. •Perlite for adding oxygen to the root and soil system. •Green Leaf Bud Booster PK Booster for blooming. Building strong big buds. •Vitalink bat guano again for Bloom. •RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules, to boost beneficial microbes. •Ecothrive Life Cycle for lots of great benefits. •Diatomaceous earth for Silica. •Ecothrive Biosys, for an extra microbial boost. 24.1.25: Gorilla Cookies is absolutely healthy and strong! I'm very pleased with this plant. I was looking into topping autoflowers and had wanted to top her. Anyway I read some things, as a result of which I decided, last night, I wasn't going to do it. So today came around, and I topped it. Totally forgot I wasn't going to do it šŸ˜… I was really excited to experiment with topping in addition to LST. Now I guess we're all in! šŸ¤ž Thanks for checking out my diary šŸƒ āœŒļø

Last week plants were looking super healthy and responded very well to the second topping so I decided to flip the light schedule few days later. They already started stretching and the smell is noticeably enhanced.

Hey everyone šŸ˜€. The bush is getting heavier and heavier šŸ˜…. Despite the bamboo sticks, they don't get a proper hold 😊. This week the nutrients started to be reduced so that she slowly begins to use up her remaining energy before she flushes. Until then, however, it will still take some time, and I wish you all a nice week, stay healthy šŸ™šŸ» and let it growā˜˜ļø Strain : Sour Diesel ā˜ļøšŸ¼šŸ˜ Genetic: Diesel x Northern Lights šŸ‘ Vega Lights : 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W šŸ’” Flower Lights : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205 W šŸ’” ā˜ļø Soil : Canna Terra Professional + ā˜ļø Nutrients : Canna Terra Vega, Canna Terra Flores, Rizotonic, Cannazym, CANNA Boost, Pk 13/14, Canna Cal/Mag, Canna Ph - Grow, Canna Ph - Flores ā˜ļø 🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EG.

TODO VA GENIAL, MUCHISIMA RESINA Y OLOR EN ESTA ETAPA. HE NOTADO QUE ALGUNAS HOJITAS SE ESTAN QUEMANDO EN LAS PUNTAS Y DOBLANDOSE HACIA ARRIBA, SUPONGO QUE FUE DEMASIADA COMIDA. DE TODOS MODOS ES MINIMO, NADA DE QUE PREOCUPARSE POR EL MOMENTO, VOY A HACER DOS RIEGOS CON AGUA Y LUEGO VOLVEMOS A FERTILIZAR!

This strain impressed me from the get go. Although I suffered her with some light stress and some issues with high run off and and build up she still managed to finish off perfectly. Lovely dense buds and she’s covered trichomes. She was harvested on 31 jan and is now curing off in glass mason jars and I’m burping x4/5 a day. I’ve tasted her today and although she’s not fully mature she tastes a bit berry with a hint of diesel. I would say for defo a day time smoke. Perfect wake and bake strain. I would like to try this again outdoors next time in a greenhouse.

Removed all the new side shoots and the first set of fanleaves. Did this because I want the plant to focus all of its energy on the main stem. I dont need any new side shoots. I thought that this weekend I would flip them in to flower. But I'm going to wait some more. I want to see more height in the plants and I think that after this defoliation that hight will come quickšŸ˜šŸš€ PATIENCE IS KEY! On day 75 I changed the light colour from blue to red to see if this can promote some stretch before changing the lightcycle to flowering. ā€¼ļøI did not change the hours of lightā€¼ļø On day 76 it seems like there has definitely been some kind of reaction from the plants overnight. They seem to have stretched a little bit. I'll keep a close eye on em these coming days.

So far all plants have been harvested. (3x Bubba Pupil, 1x purple wreck, 1x AK-47, 1x Godberry). The first bubba pupil and AK-47 were harvested a week and a half ago and now have been jarred for 1 week +/- a few days. All pictures are of the bubba pupil and AK. I will come back and update once the other plants have been trimmed. The first Bubba Pupil, which was the tallest of the 3 and most stretched out, yielded exactly 4.5 Oz dry weight. The smell is starting to get stronger after a week. It smells grapey but has a weird funk to it. It must be the ā€œpupilā€ funk everyone talks about. This plant looked like it wasn’t going to yield much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The lowers were dense and compact which contributed to a good amount of decent sized buds. Overall, I’m pretty pleased with the yield and quality from this plant. The AK-47 seemed like it was going to be a heavier yielder, but it ended up only yielding 2.5 Oz dry. The main colas were far during flower and dense when dried, but this plant had little to no lower quality buds. Everything below the main canopy seemed like it was airy and not worth jarring up. This plant smells a little bit fruity, but I can’t really put my finger on it. Super dank smelling, not skunky, but it smells like it is going to be gaseous once it cures up a bit longer. The Godberry yielded a total of 3.25 Oz. She was the best smelling by far out of all of the girls in the tent. Super fruity and sticky as hell. The resin content on her was definitely the highest of them all. I will be back to update once the last 3 plants are trimmed and jarred for a final weight and overview.
