It’s the eighth week of flowering, and the plant is looking absolutely gorgeous! The buds and leaves have turned a deep purple with rich autumn hues, giving the plant such a unique, almost magical appearance. The sweet smell has become even stronger and fills the whole grow space with a powerful, sugary aroma. 🍬🌿 I’ve noticed the trichomes starting to turn an amber color—just the sign I’ve been waiting for! Most of them are still milky, but the amber hints show we’re getting close. This week, I’ve started the flushing process to clear out any remaining nutrients and prepare for harvest. 💧 Everything’s on track, and I couldn’t be more excited for the final steps! 😁✨

02/05 - Comienza su quinta semana en etapa de crecimiento y última. Se encuentra hermosa, las chalas estan todas perfectas sin ningún problema. La proxima semana ya entra en floración. El corte apical me ayudo mucho para que no crezca tanto en altura. Por el momento viene todo bien, sin ningún problema. En estos dias estaré publicando mas imagenes de como viene.

🌸 Final Cure & Smoke Report Sticky Broccoli Feminized After 12 days of controlled drying and an additional 2 weeks of curing, Sticky Broccoli has fully revealed its final character. The flowers were dried under stable environmental conditions and cured in Terploc Grove Bags at 19°C, allowing the terpene profile and overall flower quality to develop exceptionally well. 👀 Appearance & Bag Appeal One of the most striking features of Sticky Broccoli is its visual appeal. The flowers display: -Dense and well structured buds -Heavy trichome coverage -Beautiful green grey and slightly bluish coloration -Vibrant deep red pistils tightly wrapped around the flowers The contrast between the frosted buds and the intense red pistils creates outstanding bag appeal and gives the flowers a premium appearance. The SCROG training throughout the grow cycle clearly paid off. Aside from a small amount of popcorn buds (approximately 33g), the harvest consisted almost entirely of large, uniform flowers with excellent structure and consistency (Total 318g). 👃 Aroma & Flavor The aroma closely reflects what was observed during late flowering. Sweet candy like notes dominate the profile, accompanied by creamy dessert characteristics and fruity undertones reminiscent of Gelato and Zkittlez type cultivars. After curing, additional depth emerged, introducing a slightly sharper and more complex edge to the bouquet. The flavor translates remarkably well from aroma to smoke, delivering: -Sweet fruity notes on the inhale -Creamy dessert-like undertones -A noticeable gassy and slightly plant-forward finish on the exhale The combination creates a rich and enjoyable smoking experience with multiple layers of flavor. ✨ Overall Impression Sticky Broccoli proved to be an exceptionally rewarding cultivar from seed to cure. The strain combined: - Excellent genetic stability - Strong training response - Heavy resin production - Attractive coloration - Dense flower structure - Complex terpene expression From cultivation to the final cured product, the entire process remained consistent, predictable, and highly satisfying. The final result is a harvest with impressive visual appeal, strong aroma, enjoyable flavor, and flower quality that fully reflects the effort invested throughout the grow cycle. A cultivar that successfully delivered on every stage of the journey.

25/11 Day 73 already and starting another week (week 4 since I changed the photoperiod); budlets are not completely formed but still look like more of preflowers. She continues to stretch, she's growing 4-5 cm per day, a complete beast. I think she could be stretching more before the aspect of the preflowe/budlets cahnge much. Comparatively with the pictures of other Grinspoon's growers, the flowering stage is going on very slowly...well I thought the same when she was at vegetative stage, I saw everybody's Grinspoon specimen was much bigger and much sooner than the one of mine, but in the end her growth has been so big that I 'd have liked better she hadn't grown that much. She's entirely taken over the grow room! The light spectrum I use does not promote much stretching per se, as I've seen it on many other hybrid strains in the last two and a half years since I have this system. It's a 80cm*80cm*160 cm grow box (Darkbox) and so far I think the environment for the plant is, in general, let's say fine (except perhaps the hottest days of summer and the coldest days of winter). Humidity is a little high, becuase my place is humid and I don't specailly control it but I'd guess it is roughly 60% HR throughout the year. Being that said, I blame this stretching entirely to her genes and yes, my lack of caution to have prevented all this enormous growth from happening. Really I didn't want to regret later, of not having the size of the plant I wanted and also for not knowing how much she would stretch (I wouldn't have thought this much) I let her grow more than I should have. But one learns from his mistakes and by growing new strains, every strain has different phenos and one never knows which is destined to one's plant. The fertigation solution is now 0.5 mL/L Pro-Silicate; 1,3 mL/L Cal-Max; 0,4 g/L Flower Power Bloom fertilizer at pH 6.1-6.2, EC is 1.35 mS/cm and I raised the fertigation volume to 6L keeping the frequency. Day 74 (26(11) she keeps on stretching, I'm seeing another way to raise the lights the maximum I can, I see the budlets forming more definitely so I don't think she'll be stretching much longer, perhaps and luckily this week she stops doing it. Meantime all I can do is keeping the tallest shoots out of the line of the led lights to prevent bleaching of the leaves or the budlets being burnt. God help me with this. I'll post some pics tomorrow if I have more time. My plants do take more than 60% of my free time at home (but I <3 growing marijuana). Day 75 (27/11) I used a few hooks from the bathtub's curtain to hold the growlights and managed to raise them a precious distance. Day 76 (28/11/2019) i jumped off the bed to assess the sitaution and evertyhing was normal, a big blade burned it tip for proximity to a led light, but the bud tips seem no to be damaged -yet-because of the strong lights/heat. One fertigation (inflow EC 1.35 mS/cm. EC run off 1,5 mS/cm) "en dan ben ik klaar met haar". Day 77 29-11-2019 she keeps growing tall and she's become something almost unmanageable. A couple of shoots have surpassed the lights. If only they won't be burned 🙏 Day 78 (30/11) She seems to be stopping growing. When I saw her I realised extraction fan was gone, fortunately being Saturday I could find a replacement soon. I find that run off pH is 5.3 (collected at the last portion the run-off, 2nd fertigation of the day. Isn't it a little too acidic to leave this issue untreated? Day 79 (01/12) after a reply from @knut at cocoforcannabis.com I am advised not to take in consideration runoff pH but to take care of pH in and EC "in", as for the runoff, just checking EC, because pH varies for the interaction between nutrients and is of zero interest, so I was told. The extractor is working fine and it is a lot more silent than the older one. Last for today, I'd say I'm happy she seems to have completed the stretching phase, although there are a few shoots at scarce centimeters from the ceiling of the box as a consequence. The other shoots are fine, at a reasonably good position from the lights. It was very hard times with these last weeks and the damned stretching. If I had to evaluate the growing difficulty of this strain, I'd say "quite hard" because she's pretty much unmanageable at the stretching phase, unless proper caution measures be taken before it's too late. Day 80 (2/12/2019) To end week 12 (4th week flowering) I see it seems that stretching phase is over so I can breath again. She still may be growing one or two centimeters, that I dunno for sure, but judging from the accelerated rate of stretching I have seen since the last two weeks, it appears that she won't get taller. She's almost tocuhed the ceiling :/ I see a slight swelling of the baby buds, like the calixes that are starting to form.

Day 35 is here. We are a week into flower and most the plants are just starting to hit that flowering stretch. I have been bending them down a little every couple days, but I need to focus on cleaning up some of the bottom branches so we can keep good air flow through the plants. Will work on that through this next week. I haven't done a water change, just been topping off the reservoir with fresh nutrients as they drink it up. Feeding half and half maxigro and maxibloom. Will cut out the maxigro in a couple weeks when I notice their stretch slowing down. I had a plant overflow this week because the drain line is getting full of roots. I noticed a couple roots have made their way into the reservoir already. I set a pump timer to 1 minute on and 20 minutes off so they can drain properly. I would like to make it through the grow without having to mess with the drains, but we will see what happens. I will make some modifications if needed. Other than that everything is running smooth and I hope we have some little pistils to show by next week. Thanks for stopping by ✌️

Hello, everyone. This week went great. We pruned our girl and took clones from her. Once the clones take root, we'll transition our girl to the flowering stage. Thanks to everyone who follows my diary, and thanks to those who don't forget to leave likes and comments.

The girls are happy! Pistils are long and the calayxs are developing nicely. Starting to stack and swell! Kinda turned into a jungle since the defoliation and now it's so much leaves...I removed a dozen or so but I dont like defoliating at this stage so I just tucked them to expose more light. Some unexpected stretch from the watermelon wedding cake and zkittlez. Really happy with this one!

Week 4. Temperature at night drops to 16°C. Purple pop out but no problem . With bigger pot with soil Is root zone more Warmer and much longer keep better temperature then is outside in tent .

The buds are starting to form. The smell is strong when I open the cabinet, but with the filter, it doesn't smell. I corrected the deficiencies I had correctly. I defoliated a bit to allow good light penetration. I'll let you judge how they look now. I did a week of stretching, lowering the light by 1 hour each day.

Day 10 of flower The first flowers are growing. Happiness grows very fast. The living soil works great. Big thanks to florganics!

Week 9, day 57.... started this week with a feeding of pH 6.0 plain water. Hope she start to fatten up really soon. I'm going to take it a little light with the feeding this week because I gave her some nutrient burn.i also noticed some of her older leaves are getting a little yellow, is that something I should worry about? Day 58..... she's ok, took a few pictures of her leaves that has those dull spots. Hopefully someone can lead me in the right direction. I see very little progress with her buds swelling. I do have a heater in my tent which is right next to this plant(not facing or touching) and I was reading about heat stress, could it be that she's this tall because of it? I did switch around my 2 plants in the tent. I'll monitor and let you guys know in a few days. Day 59.....this plant is really big, she's taking up more than half of my tent. About the deficiency, I don't know exactly what it is but I tested the ppm runoff and it's about 3500 which is really high. I honestly never tested the ppm of my feedings. She's going to get a nice flush and I'll be monitoring my ppm from now on. He buds do seem to be fattening up slowly but it's noticable every day. Day 60.....well her leaves are looking better but you can see the nutrient burn on the tips. This plant looks very different from the rest of @fast_buds girl scout cookies. I just hope she swell up before she's ready to harvest. Day 61......took a look at her trichomes and to me they look milky. I don't know if her buds will get any bigger. 😥. Day 63......last day of week 9, gave her pH 6.0 plain water today. Took a macro shot of her trichomes, let me know what you guys think.

GORILLA KING AUTO / KANNABIA WEEK #11 OVERALL WEEK #6 FLOWER This week no real issues to report she's looking good buds are nice and dense and continue to grow her trichomes abound she's really sticky to the touch additionally she's got a sweet aroma to her!! Overall some great genetics from the KANNABIA TEAM!! STAY GROWING!! THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY AND TAKING A LOOK IT'S MUCH APPRECIATED!!! THANK YOU KANNABIA!! 😊 KANNABIA.COM GORILLA KING AUTO

She is budding nicely now, looking like 16 colas once they have fully developed. Now starting to a get sweet smell. Very nice purple colours are now appearing. I cant wait to try this strain.

Changed out the nutes. Dropped the calmag and the Silica. Using just the Plant Prod MJ bloom. The Blue Gelato 41 is hard to tell. Lots of the plants are below the second trellis. The one that sits above looks. Like will have a big cola. I should have prunes slightly more, but noted for next time.

😎 Had to reduce the light to 50% as they are getting too close,.they done a mad stretch but S seem to doing okay no signs of burns, Been rotating the plants so they not getting to cooked in same spot. Took away the bottom 3rd of the plants to concentrate on top buds. Reacted very well to the stress. Supply run this week Smell is slowly rising 👀👃💨💨💨

After topping last week we've just been watching them grow. Bending down the branches to help them spread out. Over this next week I'll start my lst ties to help pull them down and out.

📆 [27.08. - Day 1] 💬 Going to change the light cycle to 18/6 tomorrow, i want good temperature during the night for MC 2 to pop. I hope she will do so tomorrow... 💬 MC1 is looking healthy. 💦 Watered 10ml filtered rainwater per plant 📆 [28.08. - Day 2] 💬 Looking good so far. Im going to be taking clones anyway, so it would be fine with having just one plant. We will see if MC 2 makes it. - Adjusted lights from 24/0 to 18/6 cycle 💦 Watered 10ml filtered rainwater per plant 📆 [29.08. - Day 3] - Nothing - 📆 [30.08. - Day 4] 💦 Watered 10ml filtered rainwater per plant 📆 [31.08. - Day 5] 💦 Watered 20ml filtered rainwater 📆 [01.09. - Day 6] 💬 Noticed low temperature (23 Celsius). Raised the plant up about 20cm. 📆 [02.09. - Day 7] - Nothing - 💬 Waiting for root development before i start watering (probably around Day 10-12)

I've defoliated a few leaves, they are starting to show viable trichomes now.
