🌸 Week 5 – Gorilla Cookies Auto Pheno Hunt Another week is done and the differences between the phenos are becoming more obvious with every update 👀🔥 Now that flowering is progressing, each phenotype is starting to show its own character much more clearly. Even though all plants are running under the same conditions, their reactions are very different. 📈 Current observations: Some phenos are handling irrigation and feeding extremely well and continue pushing strong growth Others are showing a bit more sensitivity and reacting differently to the same watering routine Leaf size differences are becoming huge now — some phenos are producing massive fan leaves while others stay much more compact Plant structure and overall vigor continue to separate more week by week At this point, 4 out of the 6 phenos are currently looking like strong candidates and fall into what I’d personally consider the “good” category so far 👀 🍃 Maintenance & feeding: I’m still managing the canopy and keeping an eye on how each plant develops through early flower. Small adjustments and observation are becoming more important now as every pheno responds differently. 📊 Current environment: Temperature stable around 26°C Relative humidity staying between 63–65% VPD maintained around 1.3 kPa Light intensity unchanged from previous adjustments Now I’m especially excited to see how the buds start forming over the next weeks, because that will probably decide which phenos really stand out in the end 🔥🌸 The structure is there — now let’s see who delivers when it matters. 💬 Which pheno do you think will end up producing the best flowers?

Hello Diary, I apologize right away for the large number of photos, but it is important for me to document as best I can. This week I also photographed on a black background because they are really beautiful plants. So Medusa F1 is incredibly fast, after only four weeks of flowering, the first Medusa F1 is approaching harvest. I checked the trichomes under a microscope and most of them are milky, on the lower branches the ratio is 50/50. So I will wait a few more days, monitor the situation and harvest at the right time. This time I photographed the second Medusa, a really beautiful plant, but it has not yet matured like the first one. Considering the number of photos, I will not describe the appearance too much, therefore the smell, incredible. No other strain has had such an intense and strong smell so far on my small farm, I am very much looking forward to trying this new strain. Watering is more frequent, every three days I water them with almost 4 liters of water per plant. The conditions are excellent, 25 degrees and less than 40% humidity in the air. Here's how it went last week. 09/03/2023 - Day - 44. Watering. I lowered the p.H. at 6.0 and with 7 liters of water, I watered both plants evenly. 12/03/2023 - Day - 47. Watering and checking trichomes with a microscope. I repeated the watering procedure as I did three days earlier. 14/03/2023 - Day - 49. Photography and video. this time, after the grow box, I also photographed the plants on a black background. It was worth every effort. This weekend I also visited Spannabis, a great event and I'm really grateful to have met some new people in the industry and also some great growers. I'll definitely see you next year. That's all for this week, thanks everyone for your support and comments and see you next week.

Hello growers day 8 on the balcony with the gorilla glue auto not much to report just trying not to let her fry in this heat just keeping her wet with water at the moI’m going to give her till day 14 then I’ll start to feed her some nutrients until next week be safe and happy growing ✌️🏻

Lst lst lst :) :)

About a week away from flipping to flower , going to scrog them very soon. Looking super healthy.

Day 1: Auto flowers are getting some nice crystal. Purple Kush smells nice, Pink Kush smells like wet veg. The root mass on Purple Kush is huge! The photos were defoliated, and finally both showing flowers. pH is 6 Day 3:. Finally got to LST Red Purps, she really needed it. I pulled some of the Purple Maroc branches and tried defoliating, but it's thick in there. The previous LST still has a lot of branches bent, but a lot of new growth has popped up. I wonder if it's because I broke the main collar last week. I have to find more weights to tie down the last few branches. Day 7: Purple Kush wreaks of grape bubble gum. Pink Kush wreaks of gas.

Nex info in one week more or les. Encore un grand merci à marshydro pour la lumière ! 07/10: première partie de récoltes: les petites buds sont déjà sèches. Demain matin je vais les mettre dans leurs pots d'affinage. 07/23: 10 jours de curing après... C'est devenue la plante numéro 2 dans mon classement personnel juste après la blueberry cheese. Quand j'ouvre les jars une odeur intense en sort skunky yeah ;)

Hello, hope all is well! I’m going to be growing this clone that I got off my og kush plant that’s in flower now. I took the clones about 3 weeks ago, recently saw her root growth and transplanted her to a bigger pot for growth In the veg! I really like the genetics of the og kush. Wishing for a good week of root growth and stability! Happy growing

Very happy with harvest , in more three weeks I will give my feedback about terpenes , etc.

Bad Guy is thriving, but some lower leaves are yellowing. I've boosted feeding and will keep a close eye. Despite that, its upward growth is impressive, and I'm excited to see how it progresses. 😊🌿

Día 1 y todas germinaron súper rápido 3 días Día 5 desde puesta en sustrato Ya todas están arriba Estoy solo pulverizando el sustrato Temperatura 23c humedad 75%

Hola a todos! Esta semana he regado solo con agua, la planta viene creciendo bien y ha demostrado sus preflores, así que esta semana regular ha sido niña👏👏💪💪.

Defoliation as needed and LST. Topped agian after my mess up, BOTH new colas are starting too grow nicely, plant is over-all very healthy.

This week has been great! Germination on all 4 Pre 98 Bubbas and 2 Dirty Blondes was a success!! We planted them in there pots an through out the week we gave em each a very light spray down of pure water phd at 6.5 and by Friday they all popped out the soil Let’s go!!!!! Next week we will start light feed on nutrients , so y’all keep them eyes peeled for next updates an I appreciate y’all for following my grow !!😶‍🌫️💨💨💨🙏🏻💚💯🤙🏻

So , another try for the green gelato. Shes taking off good and left last place in height of the 4×4/4/2020 batch. I gave her a pinch of grow feeding bij greenhouseseeds, the organic line. Grow on, stay high!🍀🍀🍀

Vegetation Phase - Week 5 Week 5 marks a bittersweet milestone. RIP to the Marienkäfer homie — gone but never forgotten. Their watchful eyes and pest-snacking legacy will forever live on in the tent. Meanwhile, the Donutz gang is thriving and about to hit the next big step in their journey: the 7-liter pot upgrade. Updates & Changes: RIP Marienkäfer: Nature giveth and taketh away. The tent feels a little emptier without our little guardian, but pest pressure remains nonexistent thanks to their diligent work. Transplant Time: The plants are moving up to 7L pots this week, giving their roots the room they need to expand and thrive before flipping to bloom. This upgrade will ensure a strong foundation for the explosive growth coming soon. Watering: Still sticking with reverse osmosis (RO) water for maximum control and cleanliness. Plan for Flower Transition: After the transplant, the plants will chill for the rest of the week in their new homes to recover and adjust. Week 6 will cover the flip to flower. With the clean lollipopped structure and solid root development, these plants are set to focus all their energy on producing hefty main colas in the Sea of Green setup. Observations: The Donutz are stacking beautifully, with healthy green leaves and strong stems. The SOG canopy is filling out, and each plant is shaping up to deliver a uniform, productive grow. Next Steps: Monitor the plants closely after transplanting to ensure they adjust smoothly to the 7L pots. Maintain stable environmental conditions to avoid stress during the final veg phase. Prepare for the flip to flower in Week 6 — the real show is about to begin!

Kept tucking leaves and tried to fill up the canopy. Guess it's working out. We'll see. Any tips? I see a lot of buds developing, deep in the canopy. They seem to catch a fairly amount of light. In hindsight, could I have trimmed them more a couple weeks ago? Early on in the grow the two light hung closer together, therefore the right half of the tent got to much lighting before I replaced the light, further apart. I'm thinking this being the cause of the right half of the tent being lower then the left side. I'm hoping it will catch up.

Estamos en la primera semana de vegetativo, ya que a la anterior se la conoce como semana de germinación. Las plantas empiezan a mostrar las primeras hojas reales por encima de los cotiledones. Cuidado con que la humedad relativa del aire, no sea demasiado baja, lo ideal sería alrededor de un 65%. En esta etapa solo regamos suavemente con agua cada 5 días aprox.

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 10/05/19 || To/Hasta: 16/05/19 From day/Desde día: 78 || To day/Hasta día: 84 You can find the Money Maker Diary here: ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Money Maker aquí:** https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25667-gorillamakingmoney-gorilla-vs-money-m -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- 5 - HomeMade Organic & Cheap CO2 generator (more info in week summary) 9, 10, 11 & 12: The bud on the right is a Gorilla one, the buds in the left or/and in the middle are Money Maker ones. 15 - Same Gorilla plant buds, one affected by CO2 in the roots and the other not. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- The smell is more sweet and intense every day, friends that came home turned them eyes into crystals when they see this little babys. The size isn't awesome, but the high ammount of buds full of crystals plus the strong sweet aroma makes them awesome. Buds are growing and fattenning very very well. This week i added a boost of HomeMade CO2, i never measured the results of this invention so i can't give CO2 measurements. This method is widely used in home aquariums and there is where it comes from. For those interested i'm going to write here more detailed instructions. The 4 liters i've made will last for about 2 weeks. ---NEEDINGS--- - 250 ml Bottle - 6~10 l Bottle - 400 g Sugar / l water - 1 Envelope of organic baker's yeast / l water (CHEMICAL WILL NOT WORK) - 3 mid plastic tubes 40~50 cm - 1 short plastic tube 5~6 cm - 4 tube adapters - Hot glue to seal adapters The process of creating CO2 is simple, mix water, organic yeast and sugar in a bottle, and the sugar will free CO2 in the process of fermenting to alcohol due to the yeast. 1. Make a hole in the center of the big bottle cap, insert an adapter and secure it with hot glue 2. Make 3 holes in the small bottle cap and glue the other 3 adapters 3. Link both caps with one of the mid tubes and insert the other tubes on free adapters 4. Insert a short tube in the bottom of the small cap in the adapter that came from the big cap 5. Watch the Video!! -----WATERING CALENDAR----- Plants are beginning to drain the pots a bit faster so from now on i will raise the water ammount on each watering day 0.25 l. 11/05/19 - 1,5 l with All week nutrients -(Nirvana & Blombastic) also Big Bud half dosed @ PH6.4 & 2 E.C. 14/05/19 - 1,5 l with Bud Candy, Big Bud, Nirvana, B52, Bud Factor-X, Sensizym & Blombastic @ PH6.4 & 1.5 E.C. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES Y VÍDEOS----- 5: Generador de CO2 casero, barato y orgánico (más info en el sumario semanal) 9, 10, 11 & 12: El cogollo que sale a la derecha es de una Gorila, el de la izquierda y/o el de en medio son de una Money Maker 15: Dos cogollos de la misma planta, uno afectado por CO2 en las raíces y el otro no -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- El olor es más dulce e intenso día a día, los amigos que vienen a casa a verlas se quedan ojipláticos al verlas. El tamaño no es una maravilla, pero la gran cantidad de cogollos llenos de cristales añadido al aroma que entra por las fosas nasales las hacen increíbles. Los cogollos crecen y engordan de maravilla. Esta semana he añadido un boost de CO2 casero, nunca he hecho mediciones de los resultados por lo que no puedo darlas. Este método es ampliamente usado en peceras caseras y de ahí saqué la idea. Para aquellos interesados dejo aquí instrucciones más detalladas. Con los 4 litros de agua que he preparado yo da para unas 2 semanas. ---NECESITAMOS--- - Botella de 250 ml - Botella de 5 a 10 litros - 400 g de azúcar por litro de agua - 1 sobre de levadura de postre orgánica (LA QUÍMICA NO FUNCIONARÁ) - 3 tubos de plástico de tamaño medio 40~50 cm - 1 tubo de plástico de tamaño pequeño 5~6 cm - 4 adaptadores para los tubos - Cola caliente para pegar y sellar los adaptadores El proceso de generar CO2 es simple, mezcla agua, levadura orgánica y azúcar en una botella, y el azúcar liberará CO2 en el proceso de fermentación a alcohol. 1. Haz un agujero en la tapa de la botella grande, inserta un adaptador y séllalo con cola caliente 2. Haz 3 agujeros en el tapón pequeño y haz lo mismo con los otros 3 adaptadores 3. Conecta los 2 tapones con uno de los tubos y conecta los otros 2 tubos a los adaptadores restantes 4. Conecta el tubo pequeño en la parte libre del adaptador del tapón pequeño que viene del tapón grande 5. Mira el vídeo -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- Las platas comienzan a secar los tiestos un poco más rápido, asi que de ahora en adelante incrementaré 250 ml de agua adicionales en cada riego. 11/05/19 - 1,5 l con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Nirvana & Blombastic) BigBud mitad de dosis @ PH6,4 & 2 E.C. 14/05/19 - 1,5 l con Bud Candy, Big Bud, Nirvana, B52, Bud Factor-X, Sensizym y Blombastic @ PH6,4 & 1,5 E.C.
