Welcome to Week 1 of the Sweet Seeds Gorilla Girl XL Autoflowering grow courtesy of the fine folks at Sweet Seeds! This is the second of three consecutive grows/diaries that I am doing to showcase the tried and tested genetics from this reputable seed breeder. My last grow was a smashing success so I have high hopes for this grow as well. Nothing much to report for Week #1 although I will mention that the first watering was only 0.7 of a litre per plant (0.18 of a litre per plant per day) and the second was 1.4 litres per plant (0.35 of a litre per plant per day). I am watering on my usual schedule of every fourth day as this seems to be the sweet spot throughout past grows. I am using the usual- air bubbled tap water that is PH’d to around 6.0 and if need be (over the winter months in Canada) warmed to 68-70 degrees prior to hand watering with a small watering can. The seedling that lost one of it’s cotyledon leaves is fine but still a little smaller than her sisters. So now on to Mom’s tip of the week… Mom’s Tip for Week #1 is- YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR- QUALITY IS KEY!… When considering growing Cannabis, even on a small scale, quality is an important factor in all aspects from the seeds to set up to the supplies used throughout the grow. Starting with seeds from a established breeder will raise the odds considerably in your favour for a successful outcome. Many seed companies are more than willing to ship out freebies while building up their brands which seems attractive to new growers- but use at your own risk! There’s nothing worse than being halfway through a grow and discovering male flowers tucked in amongst the lowest branches or realizing that your beautiful buds have been mysteriously pollinated just weeks before harvest. I know that seeds from a reputable seed breeder are usually more expensive and can be hard to access in certain parts of the world. But purchasing quality seeds from a reputable seed company is the first step towards homegrown Cannabis success. An area that new growers often overlook due to the high price is the quality of crucial components in their set up- including tent, lights, and intake/exhaust fans. Anyone can get away with cheaper pots, oscillating corner fans, water pumps for dechlorination, etc but it’s worth every penny investing into the workhorses of your entire operation. An initial investment of around two thousand dollars will provide serious growers with the longevity and hassle free basics needed. If done right, quality components will pay for themselves within the first 6-12 months of use and continue to serve your needs for 3-5 years to come. Supplies used throughout the grow are the final area where quality is important but somewhat subjective too. Although I’ve already stated that I don’t feel the need to spend big dollars on all the extras (pots, oscillating fans, water pumps for dechlorination, PH/moisture meters, etc- I do believe in doing my homework to make sure that I’m getting the best bang for my buck. I thoroughly research every item purchased and used in my grows by reading customer reviews, speaking with other growers and sometimes even trial and error at my own expense. Making quality an important factor in all aspects of Cannabis cultivation will benefit you, your grows and the planet we live on. 🌳🌎🌳

Flush has began, 1st day they were fed 6 hours of Flawless Finish. Now onto just plain water to bring down the PPM of the media. Really trying to push these girls over the line and make the yield worthwhile! After the slow start they are starting to fatten and harden up, their like little golf balls. Next week is flush and that’ll keep going until the trichomes are 50% amber. 🙌🏽💚🇬🇧

Buen finde para tod@s y buenos humos a seguir aprendiendo... 💨💨🇦🇷🤝🏻🇪🇦🏻‍♂️

Week 2 of flower Bud structure is good visible now. I increased the ec to 1.6 just to give them a boost, i will lower it a little next time. In a few days when they stop stretching i will do a big defoliation. I have a little issue with trips, i see the marks on the leave but not a big investation YET. I will spray them down with canna cure.

Hi everyone ! Flo +43 I had a small problem of root rot, I had to clean the roots with hydrogen peroxide and empty the tank several times. they have suffered a little and the harvest will be affected. From now on, I will use hydrogen peroxide from seed to harvest to avoid root rot and bacteria. I will not be able to use organic fertilizer anymore. do you know an alternative to Roots Excelurator from House & Garden? (i guess it's organic ...)

What’s growing on everyone?!?! My banana punch plants are about ready to go into flower here this upcoming week. They are just over a foot tall now, I pruned some leaves and stuff that was gonna end up being a waste of time and energy to the plants. Also allowing more airflow to freely come and go between the lower branches to help prevent PM or giving insects anywhere to begin to colonize. The plants are getting some real growers real charge once a week, they seem to be really taking nicely to that. Really happy with the shaping of all these plants so far. Happy new year everyone I wish everyone a prosperous and fulfilling 2022. May your gardens all thrive. Till next week keep it real everyone ✌️✌️✌️

Après l’invasion de chenille verte elle repart mais je reste à l’affût tous les jours

Привет всем моим друзьям с разных уголков мира. Я надеюсь своим примером, я показываю вам, то что партизанское движение возможно даже на вражеской территории, оккупированной клептократами. Если вы следите за мной, то вы знаете, что у меня подготовлено несколько партизанских отрядов. У меня было 40 растений Амурского гиганта, который родился в Амурской области, который входит в состав Дальневосточного федерального округа моей страны. Эти растения идеальны для выращивания на всей территории России. Я выбрал 30 самых сильный растений, которые проявляли гены гигантизма и вывез их за город на природу. Для того, чтобы удачно перевезти и трансплантировать 30 растений мне потребовалось очень много усилий, я расскажу вам об этом по порядку. Сразу оговорюсь, что у меня был один помощник, который выполнял всю физическую работу. Одному такое такой объём работы за один день сделать практически невозможно. Если вы один то, вы должны разделить свою работу на большее количество этапов, иначе вам будет слишком сложно. 1. В общей сложности ушло около 425 литров субстрата. Я взял 250 литров земли для цветов, добавил туда 115 литров вермикулита и около 60 литров гумуса – остатки жизнедеятельности дождевых червей. 2. Самым важным составляющим моего субстрата был гидрогель. Он удерживает до одного литра воды в течение 3 недель, даже перемешав его с землёй. У меня было 35 литров гидрогеля. 3. Так же у меня было порядка 30 литров чистой воды, в которые я добавил корневые стимуляторы и активаторы метаболизма. 4. Так же у меня было с собой немного перлита и пеностекла, но мне не хватило этих материалов на все растения. Но вы так же можете их использовать. После этого я выкапывал ямки, засыпал туда субстрат и добавил гидрогель, после чего трансплантировал растения. Мы приехали на место днём, но проработали на нём до самой ночи, пока на улице не стемнело. Как только все растения были удачно трансплантированы, мы удачно покинуло место, не включая фонарей или фар. Сейчас мне предстоит пересадить за один раз более 56 растений и перевезти практически 1000литров субстрата. Это крайне рискованно, но у меня нет другого выбора, так как была плохая погода долгое время. Если вам интересно следить за приключениями травки в России, подписывайтесь на мои дневники.

📆 Semana 6 Blue Zushi está mostrando su lado más exótico esta semana. Los cogollos han comenzado a compactarse con fuerza y se nota una producción de resina que va en aumento. Visualmente, empieza a asomar ese tono azulado que tanto llama la atención en esta genética, sobre todo en las puntas más expuestas a la luz. A nivel nutricional, sigo con la base de XpertNutrients y ya se nota el empuje adicional de Sticky Fingers, que está potenciando claramente la formación de tricomas y dando un pequeño salto en la intensidad del aroma, que empieza a volverse más dulce y fresco. Los Adlite están funcionando a la perfección: gracias a su uniformidad, incluso las ramas laterales están sacando cogollos densos y con buena pinta. Temperaturas estables entre 22 y 25 °C y humedad en torno al 55%, controlada con buena ventilación para evitar condensaciones y problemas en la fase más delicada. En cuanto a olores, empieza a destacar ese perfil afrutado y ácido con fondo kush, muy característico de la Blue Zushi. Los tricomas están en su mayoría lechosos, por lo que aún queda recorrido antes de pensar en cosecha. Una planta vistosa y con mucha clase. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Fucking trees!!! Plants just broke my indoor plant height record by 2" now. I don't think this is going to brake my gram records tho. Compared to my other tent the buds are a lot smaller and then 2 of the plants have had issues since the start and don't have very many bud locations on them. But who knows they might suprising me at the end of the grow. Plant sizes Brain cake #1 - 51" Brain cake #2 - 53" Brain cake #3 - 48" Brain cake #4 - 32" Well that's all for this tent. Happy growing everyone's!!!

Looking good I can see the lit og genetics in the way the hairs are forming
