Gorilla 3X3 Tent Grow - Mars II 1200 LED

re: Gorilla 3X3 Tent Grow - Mars II 1200 LED

Hi Sara :ciao:

The Sweet Cheese were sampled into oblivion and the new seedlings were topfimmed and potted up into cork soil.

These pics are from a few days ago. The top cola in this first pic is no longer with us.

Hi Macca, they are infrared LEDs. Invisible to the scantily clad eye :geek: I also have 4 :thumb:

The white LEDs look green here, due to the color balance for the plants!

Who shall separate us from the love of Cannabis?

Shall tribulation, or distress?

or persecution, or famine?

or nakedness, or danger?

Subbed up if you don't mind me coming along for the ride. Loving the style of your journal, I was singing along merrily to those songs :) All the best :thumb:
 
re: Gorilla 3X3 Tent Grow - Mars II 1200 LED

I know you Rico! You've already quick dried a bud and lit it up. How was it?

Only if you knew Guam, He's toned it down about 20 notches since becoming part of management.

Thank you Kriaze :high-five: I am glad you appreciated it.

I can be unnecessarily non-explanatory at times and often misunderstood, or not understood at all.

Anyway, This happened soon after the last update:

I had already sampled all the top colas - The rest of her still filled a large nug jar, so about a pint :thumb:

You do know me, Reg. I did have several and they were great :)

I haven't had a dud with these bagseed yet, as far as potency is concerned.

It was maybe a 70/30 sativa indica mix, easily a 7 or 8 :thumb:

I also managed to save the "strain" I took a tiny bottom branch from her a while ago and stuck it in some soil outside.

This was from exactly one month ago today:
IMG_227716.JPG


I brought her into the tent under 11.5/12.5 about 1 - 2 weeks ago and this was her yesterday :)

This was the tent on the 24th of June:

Skywalker Kush #2 is doing best after being most cut and hence smallest for a long time.

New arrival; meet Snowbud :Love:

They were all doing well then, although SK#1 was hovering on the very edge of nitrogen toxicity.

Hey rico Thankyou buddy

.... Please explain I'm a lil confused

Sorry Macca, I meant White Balance. On my camera is a Manual setting and there I can set the White balance for any scene, so my plants don't look purple in the photos. Kriaze knows a way of doing it on the aye-phone, I think.

That is true, Reg. Comes with the territory, unfortunately. Thank you for still being there for me :thanxx:

:circle-of-love:

These next images are from yesterday. The soil I am using is very rich, almost too hot for this quick transition to flower and I was aware of this. However, a few days after the previous batch of photos, I watered them with fish filter sludge water and overdosed the SK#1 :straightface:

and the African Power :straightface:

The SK#2 on the other hand is loving the treatment :)

She is my new ODP* :yummy:

re: Gorilla 3X3 Tent Grow - Mars II 1200 LED

Thanks Sara, the Skywalker kush are both on day 71 from seed - 11.5hrs on /12.5hrs off.

I took 2 small rippings from SK#2 today (like cuttings, but without scissors) and placed them in water :thumb:
 
re: Gorilla 3X3 Tent Grow - Mars II 1200 LED

:thanks: CareStaker :) Mr. Squirryl's cousin is surprisingly reliable :smokin2:

However, I am sampling this at the moment :bongrip:

IMG_251913.JPG


Good Spinosad tip, but I don't wash my buds and have almost no veg time, so I don't spray with anything at all.

I am considering using marigolds to repel them instead :hmmm:

IMG_254216.JPG


Anyway, healthy plants shouldn't get infested and thrips cannot match the damage that I have already inadvertently inflicted upon them :rollingeyes:

This is the slowly recovering and drinking again African (lack of) Power (Skunk X Durban Poison)

IMG_253619.JPG


I'm glad I ripped riplings from this Skywalker Kush, she has had the same treatment and exactly the same conditions as her sister. The strip light behind her was only plugged in and switched on once, then left on all night by accident. I was horrified and have never turned it on again.

IMG_252510.JPG


Her ugly sister smells intensely lemony and hits nicely hard, but may not make it past the sampling stage :straightface:

This pheno is definitely better suited to my (lack of) growing style, so hopefully she gives as good as she looks :)

As much as I've enjoyed your wit up to now I cannot believe this is my first visit to your journal Rico. I still have a few pages to catch up on, but I think I'd like to see what the Lord of Plants pulls off from here out, if that's ok with you. :battingeyelashes:

The Creation scene? Priceless. Just priceless. :Love:
 
re: Gorilla 3X3 Tent Grow - Mars II 1200 LED

Looking good as always my old pal :)
