Hey Cannafam Happy Weekend 😊 My Mexican gals have had a hot week in the tent/cupboard. We've had some really hot days here in the UK with temps reaching 30c and remaining hot at night in the 20s. As a result things have been hot in the tent too and ive dailed the side lighting back to level 3 to stop things going over the 30c mark. VPD is currently at 1.48 but has been swinging in the range of 1.1 = 1.6 and the dehumidifier has been going 24/7. Despite the swings my gals are looking pretty happy and have got taller, the one that started life strangling herself was actually touching the light, her stem was to inflexable to bend, so applying a little pressure between thumb and for finger the tissue inside was softend and ive gently bent her top down away from the light and she seems ok. Il need to figure out how to support her thou should she become top heavy. The short veg time is a good call with this strain if growing upwards with no other training! Flower development is coming along slowly but surely and but got a long way to go and pistils are looking vibrant. Both gals have had two feeds this week and im watering to a heavy run off due to the small pots, they have then drunk evrrything back up by the morning. So far so good and im enjoying watchin these gals develop 😊 Thats all from me this week, thanks for stoppin by ✌️💚

Even though it says 80 Gallon pot, it’s really 400, it just glitches out when I enter 400 and converts to say only 80. I know she looks bad! I know. She has only been managing a nutrient lockout with horribly low pH for far too long! The Hydrated Lime has indeed fixed the pH! Resulting in my next inbound set of problems. The original soil from the second 2.3L pot she was in was too strong! She needs to get her roots out into the larger pot, but that only gives her so much more space. Plus in that larger black plastic pot, the hot dry sun at 7,000 ft in elevation, really heats up those pots! When it’s 98F later, that sounds like torture! Maybe it was enough to balance out the more concentrated stuff towards the inside of the root mass. But I don’t want her roots to stop there! The time is now for her to go into the 400!!! The soil is 6.5 pH through and through. The peas are about to bloom! She has just avoided lockout and is picking up momentum! The 400 gives her a huge diameter for her roots! Something I sincerely hope her genetics will take advantage of. The soil is rich and alive! The temps in 400 will be so much better! Now I must prepare for my Arch Nemesis! The Butterfly!!!!!! Lol But seriously. They find my plants attractive, and decide to serve my plants as food for their offspring!!!! Not okay! Last year their success rate on my plants was a fat 0!! But they did some serious damage! I am prepared this year!! I will watch with vigilance for any butterflies around my plants specifically. I will spray my plants down regularly with diatomaceous earth! Not too much obviously! I know less is more when spraying that stuff! No mother wants to give her children food with razor blades in it! And as always there is always next year! I can’t let a phase of mice and men get the better of me. However!!… that’s what I said LAST YEAR!!!! Lol. This year IS next year! Anyways she looks rough right now on Day 58 but I tell yah what, she has very recently made a dramatic turnaround for the better!! …I hope! Happy Growing! StrongTrees💪🌳

🌸 Week 11 – Gorilla Cookies Auto Pheno Hunt Another week is in the books, and now all the phenos have officially entered the bulking phase. 🔥🌸 The flowers are swelling rapidly, and it's amazing to see how differently each phenotype is stacking and filling out. Every week brings more weight, stronger aromas, and denser buds. 📈 Current observations: All phenos are now focusing entirely on bulking up their flowers. Pheno #1 and #2 are producing massive buds, with some already reaching the size of soft drink cans. 🥤🔥 Pheno #6 has made incredible progress over the last two weeks. Although it had the slowest start, it has developed beautifully and is building flowers surprisingly well. It will most likely need around two extra weeks after the others and will probably finish the grow on its own. Pheno #3 unfortunately never fully recovered after I had to remove several main colas because they were growing into the SANlight fixture. While it's still producing nice flowers, it clearly lost some of its potential. Pheno #4 continues to be my personal favorite. The aroma is absolutely incredible, with a sweet Kush profile, and the buds are becoming rock hard already. 💎 📊 Current environment: Temperature: 31°C Relative Humidity: 63% VPD: ~1.66 kPa SANlight fixture at maximum height Light intensity: 90% ⏳ Looking ahead: If everything continues as expected, I think the first phenos will be ready for harvest in about two weeks. The final stage is always my favorite—watching the buds swell even more, the trichomes mature, and the terpene profiles reach their peak. I'm excited to see which phenotype finishes on top, but right now Pheno #4 is definitely leading the pack. 👑🔥 💬 Which pheno would you harvest first based on these updates?

What can I say this thunder fuck is so smooth to smoke, I just can't stop growing it! I am in uncharted waters here because I've gone full organic no till. This will be my first time using grassroots living soil pots and first time using this brand new soil mix. Also to help with costs I decided to make a 5 gal tea reactor, to grow out the EM1 which will save me about 75% on all microbe products, and also save on feralization when used in conjunction with foliar sprays. Wish me luck!

A planta está reagindo bem ao treinamento, continuando a crescer de forma saudável. Durante o processo, acabei danificando algumas folhas, mas nada preocupante até o dia 23. Esta semana, reduzi a quantidade de nutrientes e reguei mais com água. Minha lâmpada de 240W está em 60%. Devo aumentar? Dia 24 apareceram os primeiros pistilos. 🌱

I apologize upfront for all the photos. It was hard to pick which ones to upload, so I picked a good variety. There is gonna be between 4-6 pounds once dried/cured. These were all super dense and very little larf. This was a higher temp/higher humidity run with lots of co2 and they blew up big. It’s been a minute since I’ve grown a cola or 2 that were bigger than my arm…this time there was dozens of them. Each plant was only topped one time. The temps were usually mid 80’s and humidity in the mid 60’s during flower. This might seem high to some, but learning to apply VPD to a grow should not be trial and error, in other words, this was intentional. It’s not risky either. During the first 6 to 7 weeks of flower it is very important to not let your night time temps to go below 75 degrees. POWDERY MILDEW=LOW TEMPS AND HIGH HUMIDITY. Take one of these away and there will not be any powdery mildew! Do not let your temps go below 75! The last 2 weeks I dropped the humidity to 40% and my night temps to mid 60’s for resin production. A couple of thing one should have to create large buds is a temperature gun(for leaf temp), a par meter and co2. Keep the stomata open and feed lots of co2=huge buds. Learn about VPD and not just a quick google search! When it’s dry and cured I’ll be back for an update on weight, taste and effects. Currently the plants are drying in the room at 60 degrees and 60% humidity until I can get in there to trim them. Might be 2-3 weeks. Thanks again for all the likes and comments!

After 12 weeks of flower this grow is FINALLY over It was a relatively easy grow as far as maintenance and feeding are concerned. Midway through the flowering cycle the smell became very loud and the buds were sticky and frosty. I would definitely grow this again especially since I have around 50 more seeds lol. I didn't add the wet weight of the plants because I never weight wet because it doesn't matter but I will post the dry weight for all of you when they're done drying.

I really didn’t have any problem with her, except maybe she got a little bigger (to close to the light) than I’d expected. I was expecting more like 390g from her, maybe she didn’t enjoy the light feeding as well as I thought. No matter she is some top grade smoke that I’m going to love sharing.0

Aug 1: she’s doing great after two weeks of force flowering. In dark garage at 9 pm, few seconds of 730 nm far red light and out of garage at 7 am. This gives 10 h of darkness plus 2 h of ‘virtual’ dark by initiating dark mode faster. Like having a 26 h day which is a great trick if you have daily access to your plant. Added another scrog net layer that is clipped to the lower net that is tied off to 500 g weights which holds things apart to let sunlight in. Hail net was out for a brief hard rain, but no hail this time.

10/15 This week saw a few snags. Both gorilla zkittlez girls are showing what looks like a Mg def i.e yellowing between veins and green veins themselves. This isn't the first time they've exhibited these symptoms. Currently the heaviest affected leaves are the lowest fan leaves farthest from the light. Aiming to keep it that way. I think it's pH swinging too low. I need to pay more attention to my feeds but sometimes I don't have the time to pH my water as properly as I should. The reason I say it's that and not a deficiency is because they are also showing signs of over feed (yellow leaf tips) only a one half-strength feed did this. There must be plenty of food left in the pot. I'm thinking the flip is gonna come at the end of the week. I'll clean up some lower foliage tomorrow or Sunday and let them grow the rest of the week. 10 weeks seems like a nice round number to me. More pics coming when I do my defoll. 10/16 added some pics and vids

*******December 23 to 29, 2019 It was a good growing week. She continues to grow and get wider and taller. However, there have been signs to work on with her. The potassium is a concern and her runoff water at the start of the week was way too high. Focus is to get her medium back under control and looking for a runoff of more around 800ppm with a 5.8pH. She appears to be ready to grow based on appearance and her new growth. New leaves were coming out pointy towards the end of the week. Can just flush the coco to get back in line but given she is an auto I am avoiding that step right now. LST is getting started this week and will tie her down by end of week......just want a little more height out of her. Dec 23/19 - Given the high runoff today is just CalMag @ 1.5ml/L in RO water. 475ppm with a 5.6pH. 1.5 litres. Dec 24/19 - Still a little droopy this morning. Wanted to avoid giving her anything today but going to give her just a small amount of base nutes. - Fed Dual Fuel @ 2ml/L........650ppm with 5.8pH.........looking back at this, I should have left her with plain water this feeding. Dec 25/19 - Moving along and getting the medium in better shape. runoff water today was 1,000ppm and pH was 6.1. - Can deal with the pH level but would like to see it just under 6.0. The ppm is coming down. - Fed her 1.5L again today with a ppm of 600 and pH of 5.8. Gave, VeloKelp @ 2ml/L, Piranha and Voodoo @ 2ml/L, Dual Fuel @ 0.5ml/L. Dec 26/19 - Noticed today that the new growth has narrow blades. Potassium issue is first impressions. Also makes sense that she has been showing signs of CalMag deficiency but is not true. - runoff water today was down to 900ppm but the pH is still at 6.1. - since she is getting bigger, she was given her first good bend over the fourth node to start her LST training. Not ready to tie down yet just getting her used to the change to come. She will straighten out again by morning. Dec 27/19 - The bend from LST yesterday gave her a little more vigour in appearance this morning. She appears to have grown upwards more and more leaves are pointing up. - Still too much going on in the medium so only gave her 1L of water with CalMag in it @ 2ml/L at 200ppm with a low 5.4pH. - Also, noticed the green is starting come out more in her......cut back on the ppm going into her. Dec 28/19 - She is looking better today. Her top leaves are widening up from what the new growth looked liked yesterday. - She still has some lower branches where the leaves are not perky but don’t look unhealthy at the same time. - Her height is doing well and will pull her out today and see if she is tall enough to tie down and get the LST started while stem is still pliable and before she really takes off on new growth. - LST done and she has formed a nice structure and side branching is thick but still pliable. - Gave 2L of RO water with 2ml of Green Plant Nutrients Rezin. This does not change the ppm at all. Only 45ppm with 5.4pH going in. - Runoff water was 1400ppm with 6.2pH. (Tested runoff from yesterdays watering) - After feeding runoff was 800ppm with 5.8pH - perfect!! - Folier spray tonight with VeloKelp to calm her down?

Another fast update! 😃 Hey guys! I hope everything is going well for everyone. This is the 2nd week of flower and I'm here again to share what happened last week! My babies now get thirsty really easy, nothing like how it used to be (and you can actually see them stressing over it in my photos) but gladly nothing that some water can't fix. The main colas are also starting to grow more and they are full of small developing flowers (they look super pretty! 😍) Some side stems are also outgrowing the main branches... and I'm kinda unsure what I want to do (or if I should do anything). Maybe LST or supercrop them? (I might screw things up by doing it in flower and I have never done it before 😭) I don't know. I also want to trim some leaves away since the foliage is very dense but I fear I might end stressing them! I will probably make a grow question to know what others think. I'm back on a normal nutrient schedule. I'm no longer "overfeeding" them and I water them 4 times a week (but with little water). Next week I'll try doing 3 but with more water and see if they like it more that way. So far I love how the plants are developing! The small flowers look great and they look bigger everyday! 😃 Thanks everyone! See you all next week! 👋
