Jon's Sneak It In Auto Grow

[Jon]

You were right @Grand Daddy Black, definitely getting a bit less sneaky. Lmao! Once again we go with the hide it in plain sight theory. It’s worked so far without fail.

Here’s the Gorilla Zkittlez and Pink Rozay enjoying the sunshine. They’ll stay outside til dark then hit the blurple closet. I’ll be falling asleep to purple light for a while.

That GZ is SWEET. Look at the canopy! I’ll take a smidgen if pride in that - this is a tight plant and hard to train.

Now I gotta start paying attention to the weather and stuff. Supposed to thunderstorm today from 12-6. These guys will retire early. It’s rainy season here. Rains every day at some point.

Gorilla Zkittlez Auto
Advanced Training
Day 27!!!

She keeps giving me veg time. I’m taking it. I expected to be seeing pistils by now. Yay! This will be her approximate final shape. Should give us a ring of colas and one main up the middle. Would have been two, but I had to break one. First break of the grow. Not bad, given I’m fairly aggressive. Beautiful ring though, lots of colas, and all pre stretch. Amazing plant. I’m just short of shocked to not be seeing pistils yet. So sweet. I hope they hold off forever.

Light in the Blurple Closet

So the rain is about to start and the girls are psyched for their first night in their new digs. The Pink Rozay is right at 400 ppfd. The Gorilla Zkittlez is at 975 ppfd.

Carcass grows in a cardboard box with a light edge to edge across the top. That didn't look remotely like a fire hazard to me! Congrats on getting everyone situated.

You’re not concerned with bringing any critters back indoors with them? CL

I see your signature now uses symbols instead of titles won? Is that what happens when the list gets too long? And thanks!

A little, but I have Neem. I’ll be alright.

Management is thinking of going with those over the lists and are soliciting feedback from the members here. Cola Monster and I are the test cases, so stop by my thread and post your comments on it there!

You live dangerously my friend, I never invite trouble. lol CL

So I’ve been told. I don’t know who the dumbass was who thought that 8 plants in coco at the same time would be an “easy” grow. Ain’t nothing easy about it.

 

[NickHardy]

I wasn’t me!



We did 2 in coco hand watering. When they were drinking 5L (1.25 gallons) each a day it was killer. Had to schlep it up the stairs too. Then vacuum it out.

Above 4 I reckon when we went to 18 the next grow the priority was the irrigation system. Collars/spikes whatever and a central res.

Jon - with garage location you seem ideally set? A tank and gravity to some manifold thence to the plants? You seem pretty handy at the hacker approach to re purposing stuff?

I’m looking forward to seeing your Sativa Special. lol CL

Thanks @NickHardy - I’ve considered it many times. I’ve researched it a little so far. But I can’t do it here as I’m out of here after this grow. However, in the new Pennsylvania sweet space of all spaces, since I’ll be running 6 tents, you bet it’s on the table. Either that or I go back to soil and Geoflora and water with my hose.

There are a fair share of sativa learners in play. To my eye only the one Platinum Mimosa Cookies might be an indica pheno, and maybe the Pink Rozay. Everything else should rock and roll sativa style.

Also, despite the extensive training on the Gorilla Zkittlez, this is about the first time I’ve gone with topping/then minimal training on the others. I topped side branches in the Dos Si Dos, but not the others. I know already what they’ll do and if I don’t top side branches I’ll get like 8-12 huge colas. Just by pulling branches to the side from below. Piece of cake, except x8 makes it work.

In theory before the end of August. I should be set up and running by first week of September. Heated garage. Heh. It’s also approximately 30’x40’x15’ - it’s supports my entire upstairs handicapped equipped apartment. Basically unlimited space, and as soon as PA goes legal I’ll build a dedicated room in there.

Heads up Auto Growers!!!
I have never done this before, but I have a feeling this one is worth it.

420FastBuds is now selling what they claim to be one of the worlds strongest auto. Here it is:

Buy Strawberry Gorilla Auto Cannabis Seeds | Fast Buds

Bud descriptionStrawberry Gorilla Auto nugs are extremely frosty, a true work of art. This variety produces lime-green buds with oversized spad

2fast4buds.com

The test results themselves are even in there. 29+ % thc.

And it’s strawberry!

I wasted no time. These are on the way. Anyone who likes strong autos, this might be a goodie!

FYI - any of their strains that are Gorilla X, is their equivalent to the XL and XXL autos.

Did you change your mind about growing the Golden Tiger ? CL

I did not! But it has to wait til I go to PA. It’s also a longass commitment, lol! Do you think one could grow in a 3x3x6.5 and not overgrow it? I was thinking it might make a good subject for the KS3000 grow I owe Valerie when I move.
