Good day to all my friends and visitors here on GD. Decided to finally finish this diary so that on New Year eve I'm not opening the year with unfinished business. Now we cut the second Tropicanna XL auto plant, the first cut you can find in week 17. The plant from week 17 weighted 2.6 kilo wet, this one finished at 2.1kg. wet. The girls where autoflower but thanks to me starting this grow in cold day temps (14 degree Celsius) the started flower really late and grew and grew :) I enjoyed growing this strain immensely, smells so sweet and fruity, she has the most intense and most delicious aroma ever She brunches off like crazy, gave me a ton of big and dense bud. They were the biggest plants I have ever grown and to top that this cultivar rewarded me with one of the most tasteful buds, fit even for a picky connesour. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SE7000 done it's magic with this grow as with all my other grow ops. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture ($ to gram) here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ A shout out to Sweet Seeds for the gift of this fenomenal genetics: https://sweetseeds.es/en/ Thank you all for your companionship on this voyage, I hope you enjoyed it at least as much as I did. Also thank you for this awesome year together here. Together with my little family we want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a happy slide into the New Year, we love you all.

Week 8 is finally here! We changed up the nutrient feeding to the week 8 on the feed chart. I am diluting everything at a 50-40% rate to keep EC within acceptable ranges of 0.8 - 1.1 EC. I started adding Terpinator to the mix and I do notice a significant smell increase vs. without it. I am going to keep using this as I think it is a great supplement. I did figure out that even though on the bottle and on the specific feed chart, it says it is a light formula that will have minimal impact on EC and will not burn your plants at the recommended rates - it will! First time mixing up my nutrients with terpinator, I had to dilute it because the EC was too high. I put the recommended amount in my mix, and checked EC and low and behold it was high. The next feeding I did a 50% dilution rate and that seemed to be ok if you are diluting your other inputs properly to compensate. ALWAYS make sure your EC and PH are in check prior to fertigating your plants. I am watching the trichomes on a daily basis and am looking to harvest sometime this week or next. I plan to dry it in the tent it is growing in as it has AC and good airflow. Once they are done drying, they will get trimmed up, lightly vacuum sealed and stored in the freezer. Updates will be coming throughout the week!

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 15/03/19 || To/Hasta: 21/03/19 From day/Desde día: 22 || To day/Hasta día: 28 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----- Video 1: Exactly the same video as 2 but accelerated +300% to fix it to 1 minute for instagram. Video 2: 4 days (25~28) TimeLapse, 1 image each 60 secs @ 30 fps, awesome video of how is responding the main Gorilla to the Man Linning, at about minute 2:00 i pruned and trained the other gorilla and the main Money Maker, and at the end of the video i pruned the last Money Maker. Video 17: General video of the 4 plants and it's trainings, i'm sorry for being so repetitive with the music. Video 18: Video focushed on the second Gorilla Photo 10: Top and bottom cuts marked on photo 11 Photo 26: Last main branches toppings Photo 29: The main internodal became very rocky, awesomly robust. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- As you see i'm testing many different things among the plants, the first Gorilla is recieving a heavy training in man-lining, and with the second gorilla im trying to equilibrate all the tops and then i will push them horizontally, also i twisted the main branch a little so there's no node below any other. I love how the man-lining is forming the plant, but i'm really scared as i really don't know what am i doing, i just sin in front of the plant some minutes, and then i cut where i fill, same with the grab points. please don't be too enthusiast with this growing as maybe i will fuck up everything at some point lmao!! 😭 -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 18/03/19 - 400 ml with all "LAST" week nutrients @ 0.95 E.C. PH5.9 (i had some rests from the last watering) - Also i applied a foliar irrigation with the same mix as the last week 20/03/19 - 1.000 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.9 E.C. PH5.9 *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES & VÍDEOS----- Vídeo 1: TimeLapse, exactamente el mismo vídeo que el 2 pero acelerado a un poco más del 300% para ajustarlo a 1 minuto para Instagram. Vídeo 2: 4 días (25~28) TimeLapse, 1 imagen cada 60 segundos @ 30 fps, vídeo increíble en el que se ve com responde la Gorila al Man Lining, en aproximadamente el minuto 2 podo y entreno un poco a la otra Gorila y la principal de las Money Makers, al final del vídeo podaré la última Money Maker. Vídeo 17: Vídeo general de las 4 plantas y sus entrenamientos, siento la repetitividad de la música entre los vídeos. Vídeo 18: Video enfocado a la segunda Gorilla Photo 10: Los cortes nombrados (Top&Bottom) de la foto 11 Photo 26: Los toppings de las ramas principales. Photo 29: El internodo que he dejado como principal se ha puesto duro como una piedra, extremadamente robusto. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Como se puede observar estoy probando diferentes cosas enter las 4 plantas, la primera de las gorilas está recibiendo un man-lining y entrenamiento bastante heavy, y con la segunda Gorila intentaré equilibrar las partes altas y después la extenderé horizontalmente, también he torcido el tallo principal para que los pisos se distribuyan en círculo. Me encanta como el man-lining está distribuyendo la planta, pero estoy muy asustado pues realmente no se lo que estoy haciendo, simplemente me siento delante de las plantas un rato y después las meto cortes donde siento, de la mima manera las estoy agarrando. Por favor no seáis muy entusiastas con este cultivo, pues en cualquier momento puedo liarla y destrozarlo todo Jajajajajajajaj 😭 -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO---- 18/03/19 - 400 ml contodos los nutrientes de la "ÚLTIMA" semana @ 0.95 E.C. PH5.9 (me quedaba un resto del útlimo riego) - También he hecho un riego foliar con un resto del ultimo riego foliar 20/03/19 - 1.000 ml con todos los nutrientes de la semana @ 0.9 E.C. PH5.9

2/17: I spent a little time rearranging today. I bought some 32" x 14" plastic ventilated storage shelves and cut the legs down on two of them so I have some different-height platforms for the shorties in the garden. I should also be able to easily flush 6 plants in 5 gallon pots, or 9 plants in 3 gallon pots at a time now, that's a win!👈 2/18: I debated whether to feed or not, and settled on watering them with about 1/2 gallon each. including bembe, cal-mag, signal, humic acid, and a little beastie bloomz. The new dehumidifier is pulling about a gallon and a half per day from the air, so I should be able to feed them in a couple of days. 2/19: Rainy day outside, so I'm pulling in 99% humidity, plus the pots are still petty saturated, but the new dehumidifier is keeping up. RH is holding at about 45% today.👍 2/20: Day 31 of flower...they don't seem to be stretching any more, so they aren't a problem, but other plants have been. A semi-solution occurred to me that allowed me to raise the lights another 3-4 inches. Now I'm truly maxxed out... So far, this has been the most consistent of the FFT strains I'm growing. They actually "look" like sisters.. I took photos and videos of all the plants today since I had to empty the closet and it wasn't a feeding day. 2/21: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including beastie bloomz, tiger bloom, big bloom, signal, bembe, and cal-mag...no grow big this time. 2/22: They're both looking great..no complaints at all. 2/23: I ordered some Terpinator because I'm not so sure about Signal's efficacy at this point....I'm usually dealing with odors more by now..😕 I've reached the ceiling again with my lights, but these two plants wont be a problem. They're both budding up nicely now.

Familia, actualizo la semana 9 de floración de las Kritical, y ya ultima semana que está. Ya están listas para pasar por la tijera, variedad típica muy top que está entre los mejores clásicos. Esta semana han estado solo a agua y hemos practicado un estrés hídrico, que cada vez que aplicamos riego la cantidad va siendo reducida progresivamente. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 27,5 grados y las mínimas no bajan 22, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 40%/55% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo,os actualizaré la cosecha los próximos días, buenos humos 💨💨💨.

Bruce Banner by Ganja Farmer Seeds Update 🌿 As we step into the 9th week of flowering, our grow is hitting its stride, and the progress is simply fantastic! Our plants are flourishing, but their vigorous growth has presented us with a delightful challenge. The weight of the burgeoning buds has caused some gentle bending in the branches, prompting us to provide additional support to maintain their upright posture. The buds are unfurling with astonishing speed, almost racing ahead of the branches themselves. It's a thrilling race against time! However, it's a delightful conundrum to face when the end result promises to be such exquisite, sugar-coated buds. A significant portion of our success can be attributed to the remarkable contributions of Xpert Nutrients. Their fertilizer has played a pivotal role in nurturing our plants to such magnificent heights. The reason we hold this fertilizer in such high regard is its exceptional quality and effectiveness. Not only does it provide the essential nutrients for robust growth, but it also enhances bud development, resulting in larger, denser, and more resinous flowers. The leaves boast a rich, dark green hue, radiating with health and vitality. Bruce Banner is indeed living up to its lofty reputation, and we eagerly anticipate witnessing its continued evolution in the weeks ahead. Stay tuned for further updates on our journey!

This week will probably be the last week of growth, as the plant has maintained its strong stretch and has more than doubled in size from 30 to 70cm since last week. The buds are now clearly visible, which is why I will be switching to flowering fertilizer from next week. A very beautiful flower canopy has developed, with the top bud standing out strongly in height. Apart from a scrog net, I do not use any other training techniques.

I’m so excited to show you guys week 3. These plants are huge!!! Even though I’m watching them grow right before my eyes I’m still shock as to how big they are. I browsed through other growers diaries that’s growing the same strains as me and I haven’t came across none as big as mines. The plants are responding well to their nutrients and TLC from me. I was planning to scrog this grow but I’m curious to see how big these autos are going to get so I’m going to just let them ride it out. Make sure to follow my diary for your weekly updates and give a like if you like the grow. Peace Love & Guidance #OwlGang #AGrowingEmpire

Welcome back growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre! Week 6F begins for the ladies of the 4x8, they continue to bulk up, frost-up, sticky and they got that good stank! The ladies are hungry! Going from 4 liters of nutes + water per plant, to 6 liters per plant per week (extra feed started on week 5). They get 4 liters at the beginning of the week and then 2 more liters on day 5 of the week. Well that's all for this week, I hope you enjoyed the show growfessors 👽🌳💚

Hey Cannafam Happy Monday 😊 Its been a pretty good week for my gal, we started the week with really hot weather for May, with temps of 30c daytime and 18c at night, the tempratures have slowly tapered off daily by a couple of degrees each day and by Thursday - Saturday we were looking at 22c daytime 14c nightime. The days have been solid sunshine with humidity about 55 until today when its been raining all day, current temp is 17c and humidity has shot up to 97. Daylight is currently at 16 hours 7 minutes currently. With all the Sun this week shes had good solid growth and is just starting her 3rd set of true leaves and is looking nice and healthy 😊 No feed again this week just great white with every watering. I have had a slight issue this week when the wind blew the diamatous earth onto a couple of leaves, i've now learnt from this that it actually breaches the leaves cell walls and causes damage, in the picture showing this it looks like nute burn or potassium deficiency but i observed the effect a short time after and gave her a very gentle finger tip wash. Im now thinking of putting the powder around the pot but thats not much good when raining. On the squirrel front the turf pins are working, i know this as both pots were side by side and my little friend tried to dig up my other grow! The weathers looking a bit more unsettled for the next week but with her solid start hopefully she should be ok. Thats all from me for now, thanks for stopping by 😊✌️

it has now clearly gone into flowering. really nice pistols and if it continues like this, it will become really thick buds. it has got a few yellow leaves but that's not bad.
