🇺🇸 Week 9 of Growth – Mother Gorilla 🇺🇸 Hey everyone, we’re back for Week 9 of growth for the Mother Gorilla from Royal Queen Seeds. This week wasn’t great—the plant struggled to recover after the defoliation. I had major pH fluctuations all week, which really slowed down growth. Now at Week 9, I really want to switch to flowering, but the plant isn’t developing well enough. For the past three weeks, things haven’t been going smoothly, and it’s frustrating. This morning, after returning from the weekend, pH had risen to 6.4, which is way too high for hydro at this stage. So I flushed the reservoir and started fresh with a new, properly adjusted nutrient solution. I kept all the nutrients the same, and all other parameters remain unchanged. Now, my main focus this week is keeping the nutrient solution stable so the plant can resume healthy growth. Nothing else to report—just pH fluctuations and slowed growth. The plant really needs to regain strength before flowering, or it’ll be a problem. See you next week! ⸻ 🇫🇷 Semaine 9 de Croissance – Mother Gorilla 🇫🇷 Salut tout le monde, on est de retour pour la semaine 9 de croissance de la Mother Gorilla de chez Royal Queen Seeds. Cette semaine n’a pas été top, la plante a eu du mal à récupérer après la défoliation. J’ai eu de grosses fluctuations de pH toute la semaine, ce qui a ralenti la croissance. On est à 9 semaines de croissance, et j’aimerais vraiment passer en floraison, mais la plante ne se développe pas assez bien. Ça fait trois semaines que ça ne se passe pas comme prévu, et c’est frustrant. Ce matin, en rentrant du week-end, le pH était monté à 6,4, ce qui est bien trop élevé pour l’hydro à ce stade. J’ai donc vidé la soupe et préparé une nouvelle solution nutritive ajustée. J’ai gardé les mêmes nutriments, et toutes les constantes restent inchangées. Cette semaine, mon objectif est de stabiliser la solution nutritive pour que la plante puisse reprendre une bonne croissance. Rien d’autre à signaler, à part les fluctuations de pH et le ralentissement. Elle doit vraiment reprendre de la vigueur avant la floraison, sinon ça risque d’être compliqué. À la semaine prochaine ! 🤘😎

Cold cold week, with intermitent rain, and the last feedings, The AK is yellowing and rushing to flower, but, there are still white hairs, and the fattening is not complete, so im flushing until the end (1-2 weeks) Im looking for a narcotic effect so im letting her more time, because no bugs around, the THC layer has increased this week and you can smell the therpenes a little more, really musky-fruty with hints of mango It has reained on the plant last 3 weeks intermitently, but as the buds are not so compact as a Skunk, and the thc layer covering the flowers i find it can survive more, without problems Never expected to have an Indica the 10th of November but, im happy with that fact, she started to grow 7th of August soo a late Afghan Kush ^^ The colours are incredible, thanks Nature and Sedsman for this gift !! One of the most beautiful plants i have ever seen in person.. Good VIbez GD !!!! Thanks for checking, and bros, remember, roll one for the Cold days :D

7/7 Grow diaries isnt letting me post a harvest week. So heres a little teaser. 65 grams dry. 2ounces 9. kaprikorns website says this is a low yielding plant. i cannot fathom what their high yeilding plants will do. this cultivar was only 12 inches from the soil line. i trained her fairly intensely but it was worth it. not much larf and the main nugs are nice and uniform. if you didnt train this plant, i can see how it wouldnt really yield much.

Week 12 Day 79 Guys we started this week flushing our ladies until lowered ppm to optimum ppm Cant tell you how long it gonna take you but it took me a long time to finish each plant since you have to literally add 3 times the quantity of water that your pot can get and it takes so much time but it's worth it! Day 80 They're looking good and smelling awesome, couldn't finish flushing one of the ladies yesterday but managed to finish today and they're all happy! Day 81 Overall they're good can't wait for them only few days to harvest Day 82 End of week 12 Looking pretty good

Switched to GH flora 3 part. Playing around with flood times. The are taking up water at an exponential rate. Started with 3, 3 minute floods, up to 6, 4 minute floods and they're still drying up the puddles within an hour. Plant 1 is ahead of plant 2 by a day but it is half the size🤷‍♂️ Topped day 16. Not obvious in the photos as I had hoped but they bounced back within minutes Thank to evryone who gave their input, every little bit helps🙌 After all your suggestions, I've, backed off the light, backed off the flood time and count. We will see if these girls perk up a little more👍 Day 17 I noticed progression of what I believe to be a calcium deficiency? That's on me, forgot the calmag originally🤦‍♂️ another thing I decided to look into was the twisting of the leaves as the plant 1 is also starting to show. Could my ph be alot higher than I think? 4 gal res I added a couple ml of phosphoric acid at the start and about 1ml a day since(I didnt prep my cube as well as I should of) seems like alot to me. The system would rise from 5.3 to 6.3 throughout the day. A flood cycle doesnt seem to affect the ph, more over time. I am constantly stirring the mix and no my meter is not yet calibrated. I have ordered what I need but I'm considering calibrating with the chemicals I have and doing a res change. Good news is, they do seem a little more lifelike after implementing all your suggestions. Okay drained and rinsed my res, ro water into the tank was holding 6.97ph, good enough for the girls I go out with🤷‍♂️ gonna mix up a batch, do a top feed to waste, and see what happens. It has been nearly 24h since my last flood. Also, struggling with lows of 30% humidity sometimes. Dont know if that plays a role here. Okay something was off.. I did a top feed to waste with fresh 5.3 nutes and the runoff came out at 7.5.. so I did it again...and again...maybe a half doesnt times to each block with no change. I started to reuse the runoff as I wrote off the batch at this point. I then switched to a pump and did recirc feed to each block aprox 20 litres at a time, stopping to rebalance. Literally 100s of litres later I am stable at 5.5....going to drain rinse and refill. The interesting part is that what ever was saturated in those blocks is non conductive, the ec didnt change the entire time🤷‍♂️ Spent the next couple days recovering. Looking better now. Sardine catcher installed.

Really Babied these girls and shows the capability of some strains under optimal conditions. Especially throughout flower. Progress is becoming very noticeable. What a great experience making rosin!

started flushing, plant should be ready in about a week nugs are still fattening up a bit with some new white pistils some of the trichomes on the leaves are turning amber, waiting for the trichomes on the buds to turn completely milky and then she should be ready for harvest

I think everything ist allright, but they are a little slow, compared to others. One seedling cant keep up with the others, should i replace it?

Hi guys so this is the last few days for the gelatocake autos, they have filled out really well now and are starting to fade nicely. So the past 7 days I have been feeding water only and put 10l of ice water last night thru each plant. I am looking at harvesting Friday. I will put some pictures up of the sherbert mimosa, which are looking like a plant full of pistils, wery sativa characteristics, tall and skinny leafs. Starting to put on some frost now but I cant really see any growth. The cheese and dark phoenix are growing nicely, keeping them growing as slow as possible. Happy growing guys 👌💪💚

Getting very close to the end now, lowering my night temps has definatley made the buds more dense, will be feeding her nutrients this week and start the flush from next week, unfortunately I’ve just realised the water pump was the case for my reservoir to be heating up, so I’ve probably messed up it’s nutrient intake, so my next runtz muffin run will most probably be a lot better

Bewässerung: 2500 ml jeden 3 Tag in der Zwölften Woche pH-Wert: 6.3 EC-Wert: 1,6 mS/cm Temperatur: 22ºC Luftfeuchtigkeit: 50% Schädlingsbekämpfung: Wir haben gemerkt das es immer mehr Trauermücken gibt und werden deswegen nochmal Nematoden in die erde geben. PPFD: 600 µmol/m²/s DLI: 38 mol/m²/Tag Düngemittel:Sie bekommt auch ab jetzt immer etwas CalMag von BioBizz zu Prävention. Ab Tag 16 haben wir angefangen sie mit einem Mineralischen NPK Dünger (NPK 10-4-7) und Mineralischen NPK Dünger (NPK 3,5-6-6) dazu kommt noch Canna PK13/14, Plagron Green Sensation und Plagron Power Buds. Besonderheiten: Haben heute nochmals Nematoden in die Töpfe gegeben, da es im Moment viele Trauermücken gibt, denken es liegt an dem Wetter. -Tag 79 Heute wieder Wasser und Dünger, und Nematoden, war wirklich nötig es sind sehr viele Trauermücken vorhanden, aber mit den Nematoden bekommt man es sehr schnell in griff. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/t7WpWW3qNQ8 -Tag 81 Heute wieder nur mit Wasser gegossen und ein paar alte Blätter entfernt. -Tag 83 Heute mit Dünger gegossen, man merkt das es deutlich weniger Trauermücken gibt nach dem die Nematoden jetzt seit ein paar Tagen im boden sind.

Well ambers have been popping up and I've started the flush about 5 days ago, planning to chop day 72/73. I need to make room for my other 2 girls who need higher humidity etc so I might be chopping a week earlier than I would like but I'm happy how far she has come. One thing I noticed with my USB microscope - use your PC instead of your phone, I could see considerably more amber on my PC monitor then I did on my iPhone but I need a longer Micro-USB cord so these trich pics are from my iPhone.

Ok this week was a little exciting one of the plants developed an issue with one of its leaves. It's the only plant out of all of them it's hard to see from the picture but 2 out of the 5 fingers on the leaf had a burn and were shrivelled and also very very shiny. I looked it up and it suggested it was boron deficiency. I simply removed the affected areas and carried on as it was only localized too a couple of leaves and just on that one plant. The smaller plants are catching up now
