*If anyone read through my GDP diary, this is going to be mostly the same stuff. So, sad day friends. I got spider mites and had to throw all my plants out. This is what I think happened: About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed some freckling on the lower leaves. I looked at it and thought it might be a cal/mag issue so I added cal/mag that week and went about my business. I saw it about a week later and it wasn't getting any better so I added more cal/mag. This continued for about 2-3 weeks until I finally took off a leaf and examined it under my microscope. I saw little bugs crawling everywhere and my stomach just dropped. My fiance did some quick research while I was panic ripping leaves off (see pictures) and she correctly diagnosed it as spider mites. I debated with myself and my close friend and ultimately I decided to throw all the plants in my tent away. I know that there are a lot of people who will say that there are things I could have done to make it to harvest but what it came down to is the people I take care of and personal pride. I consider myself a caregiver and I give away product for free that I am not going to use to my family and close friends. I thought to myself "Would you smoke this?" and when my answer was "ehhh, I don't know", I thought about how it would feel giving it away and immediately made the decision to destroy them. I take an immense amount of pride in my product and this hobby and if I am not going to stand behind it I would rather just start over. I grow from my heart (shout out to the Grow From Your Heart Podcast!) to help people and make sure my family is not getting unsafe product from sketchy people. To spray pesticides in flower that may hurt people and have little bug carcasses in there just goes against that in every way and is just wrong in my opinion if you are giving it away to others. If you are the only one smoking it then it is one thing to take that risk but not with your patients. I want my medicine to help people, not create or exacerbate health issues. It is also important to note that the mites had moved from my flower tent into my veg space and took over my auto berry as well. Damn things are crafty and fast. So that is why I made the decision to destroy them all after 3+ months of res changes, pruning, and manifolding on a slow vegging strain. Feel free to chime in with your opinion but I do not regret my decision. I threw out my new clones, mother plant, and auto berry I had on my veg side as well. Shout out to all the other growers out there that do the right thing by their patients. Caregivers > Cash croppers. For anyone curious, I removed everything from my tent and scrubbed it all with a 20% bleach/water solution. All equipment has been wiped down and stored in the garage away from any organic materials. I will give them until tomorrow (2 days) to air out and dry and then I will wipe it down again with bleach and wait another 2 days. Hopefully that will make sure everything is dead and will not come back next grow. That next grow should start in about a week. It sucks but sometimes it happens and you gotta be ready for it. Lesson learned. Never bring outdoor plants into your indoor garden even if it is after just a day or two. A bunch of people on here and Reddit warned me and I did not listen. Now I have learned the hard way and it feels like when your parents "told you so" haha. Thanks to everyone who stopped by along the way. Stay tuned for a new grow coming soon. It is going to be some cool new limited edition Mephisto Illuminautos. I am pretty excited. Good luck out there and always grow from your heart folks. -Grim

Good day everyone! The seed sprouted within 2 days. I used small starter tray to get the first roots. After 2 days the plant grouwen out and I already can see good roots. I will use Budget DWC system made from : simple black basket for 1$ , air pump for 10$ , air tubes( stones) for 4$ , small pot 0.4$, white filler ( from old tv cartoon box) to fix the plant until the roots will fix it, black tape 0.5$ to isolate the pot, black cover for the top 2$. total about 17-20$ you can make same. I confirm it works PERFECT. Please check the pictures for more info. Every 2-3 months I got a high-quality buds and wonder how fast they grow up !!! :OOO

Just as good as lemonade on a hot Summer day. • The gentle giant. Up to 550 g/m2 of gorgeous pinkish-purple buds. • Refreshing for the mind and body. The ideal all-day strain with a perfectly balanced effect. • Sweet n’ sour terps. Mouth-puckering lemon flavors that’ll hypnotize your taste buds. • Properly purple. The perfect choice for purple hash and extractions. As refreshing as cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. Arising from a cross between purple and citrus Cali genetics, Purple Lemonade FF (Fast Flowering) offers a complex high made up of perfectly balanced cerebral and body effects that are ideal for daytime use. Expect an extremely enjoyable high that boosts your mood while deeply relaxing your whole body and getting rid of muscle pain. This meticulous cross produces up to 550 g/m2 of some of the most beautiful purple buds, with pinkish and reddish hues that will catch everyone’s attention. The beautiful purple buds are ready for harvest in 7-8 weeks and come hand-in-hand with unbelievably sugary citrus terps that are just as refreshing as a cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. It’s the ideal variety for the sweet-tooth stoner seeking strains that deliver both in quality and quantity of resin. Bud Description 🦔 Purple Lemonade FF grows chunky, spade-shaped buds that boast a whole range of pinkish-purple hues with rich, dark orange pistils shooting out of every direction. This variety stands out for the, oftentimes, lilac trichomes that give them a gorgeous pink tint and make for outstanding purple concentrates. The buds give off a delicious tart lemon aroma that reveals a sweeter, more fruity scent as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for flavor chasers and those looking for pungent terpene profiles. Smoke Reports 💨 Purple Lemonade FF offers an effect that’s just as unique as the flavor. Expect a potent uplifting high that gives you that energy boost you need to get things done while 100% happy and stress-free. The effect gradually transforms into a wave that works its way along the limbs and through the muscles, deeply relaxing your body and putting you in the right mindset to go through a busy day with a huge smile on your face. This is an excellent all-day smoke as it not only increases energy but can also help combat chronic pain, migraine and stress. Plant Appearance 💄 This feminized photoperiod variety develops a thick and strong structure, growing a medium-sized main cola with multiple shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. Purple Lemonade FF develops fairly short internodal spacing with gorgeous purple buds growing stacked on top of each other, making it the perfect choice for growers of all levels looking to get lots and lots of top-shelf purple weed, as this variety can produce up to 550 g/m2 in a 7-8 week flower cycle. Grow Tips 🤓 This is a super fast feminized photoperiod version that takes approximately 7-8 weeks to flower with a 5-week vegetation cycle,, this means you can have faster harvests by shortening the veg cycle or have a longer veg cycle for bigger yields. Purple Lemonade FF (Fast Flowering) makes for a great candidate for growers of all levels as it’s a vigorous strain that will thrive with basic maintenance both indoors and outdoors. This is a resin powerhouse so make sure to have your trim bin close by as all the resinous sugar leaves will make for the most mouth- watering hash and extracts. Flavor 😋 Expect a long-lasting citrus zest that taste just like it smells. Purple Lemonade FF reeks of a delicious blend of sweet fruits and tart citrus that’ll make your mouth water. On the inhale, expect sour flavors that taste just like lemon candy with hints of orange and a really subtle earthy background. And on the exhale, the citrus flavors open up, giving place to a more sugary berry fruitiness that leaves your whole mouth tasting like an extremely sweet weed-infused lemonade. https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/purple-lemonade-fast-flowering _______________________________________________________________ Setup: 140x70x200 cm Spiderfarmer tent 2x Monkey 16W fans (not oscillating) 1x Secret Jardin 30W 1x box fan 50W oscillating (on lowest level) LED Full Spectrum 320W AGLEX AGL-320W-MA 5,6 kg foldable, dimmable 864 pieces Samsung LH301H 864umol/s 2,7umol/J full spectrum white + RED 660nm + IR 740nm wavelength range 380-780nm covering 3x4ft Green Buzz Nutrients https://greenbuzzliquids.com/ ❗ Use code GD42025 for generous 25% discount (for orders of minimum 75€) Biobizz Lightmix + coco + wormcastings + perlite Carbon Active Granulate Filter 125/360 cm³/h PrimaKlima exhaust EC 125-400/240 cm³/h

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 17/05/19 || To/Hasta: 23/05/19 From day/Desde día: 85 || To day/Hasta día: 91 You can find the Money Maker Diary here: ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Money Maker aquí:** https://growdiaries.woodroom.tel/diaries/25667-gorillamakingmoney-gorilla-vs-money-m -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- 1 - Overview of the main Gorilla with the Man-lining applied 2 - Overview of the Gorilla affected by CO2 excess at root system 3, 15 & 16 - Top candy present in 3 tails, 2 Gorillas & 1 Money Maker 4 - Colorful Trichomes 😱😱😱!!, Yellow, Orange, Red... Fucking Delicious!!!! -----WEEK SUMMARY----- The buds still fattening day by day, more than I expected seeing the final thickness of the stems. The next week the branches will begin to bend by the weight and I will have to tie them. As you can see the crystal concentration in the buds is awesome, looking at them natural they seem much more populated with crystals than in the pictures. Smell is very intense. All my house smells a bit, but as soon as the door of the room of the plants is opened, the whole house starts to smell intense instantly. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 17/05/19 - 1,5 l with All week nutrients -(Senizym, Pk Booster, B52 & Nirvana) @ PH6.4 & 2.4 E.C. 20/05/19 - 1,5 l with All week nutrients -(Pro Active, Rhino Skin, Bloom Stimulator & nutrition) @ PH6.4 & 2.4 E.C. 23/05/19 - 1,5 l with All week nutrients -(Senizym, Pk Booster & Nirvana) @ PH6.4 & 2.5 E.C. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES Y VÍDEOS----- 1 - Visión de la Gorilla principal con man-lining aplicado 2 - Visión de la segunda Gorilla acfectada por exceso de CO2 en el sistema radicular 3, 15 & 16 - Caramelo superior presente en 3 colas, dos de Gorillas y una Money Maker 4 - Tricomas a todo color 😱😱😱!!, amarillo, naranja, rojo... Jodidamente delicioso!!!! -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Los cogollos siguen engordando día a día, más de lo que esperaba viendo el grosor final de los tallos. La siguiente semana las ramas van a empezar a doblarse por el peso y voy a tener que ir amarrándolas. Como podéis ver la concentración de cristales que presentan los cogollos no es ninguna tontería, realmente mirándolas al natural parecen muchísimo más pobladas de cristales que en las fotos y ya es decir. Con respecto al olor es muy intenso, huele un poco toda la planta de la casa, pero en cuanto se abre la puerta de la habitación de las plantas, toda la casa empieza a oler al instante. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 17/05/19 - 1,5 l Con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Sensizym, Pk Booster, B52 y Nirvana) @ PH6.4 & 2.4 E.C. 20/05/19 - 1,5 l Con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Pro Active, Rhino Skin, Bloom Stimulator y nutrition) @ PH6.4 & 2.4 E.C. 23/05/19 - 1,5 l Con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Senizym, Pk Booster y Nirvana) @ PH6.4 & 2.5 E.C.

Amazing high. And the bud never smelled like hay. Not even at 85% rh . Still had smelled berries and gas. I am still curing on it and I am very happy with the results. Buds are hard as rock. Not having a big long cola but many big buds, was also good, good trichome production. When smoked cali kush and gorilla glue terpenes profile are felt instantl. It is a delifghyful experience that comes in wjth a cerebral high and turns later into a relaxed body high that leaves you smiling

Hi gromie's, well were at day 29 of flowering & day 64 in total. She has grown some really nice chunky dense buds & has a fairly strong sweet/ lemon/citrus smell to her. She is getting closer to harvest, starting to get cloudy trichomes & pistills starting to change colour, Calyx closed & swelling. Nice & sticky!

1/14: This morning, I did a foliar application of big bloom and fulvic acid, then about 5 hours later I watered them with about a half-gallon of rainwater each and added armor si, humic acid, endoboost myco/tricho, liquid molasses, and a bunch of cal-mag. Today, I also I wired up and mounted my new samsung sun board strips (660nm/730nm) and my Solacure FlowerPower UVB fixture. I'm running the deep red/far red bud boosters a few hours per day right now, but will run them for the entire photoperiod once I start flowering them. I'll run the UVB for 4 * 15-minute sessions a day for the full flowering cycle, and if they don't protest too much I'll increase each session by 5 minutes and evaluate again. Some strains are more forgiving than others and I've got 5 different strains in this space...so really not sure much time I'll get away with exposing them to the deadly rays without damaging them too much...😈 1/15: I received one of the rapid led/growmau far red initiator pucks today. With the placement of my UVB light, I'm realizing I'll need another far red puck to have even and intense far red coverage, so I'm ordering another with Prime delivery and waiting to start flowering until I receive it. I sprayed them down really well with ph adjusted rainwater tonight to rinse off nutrient build-up from foliar applications. 1/16: I'm really excited to try flowering under 14/10. I grew photos indoors on an off for 15 years before I semi-retired. If I added up all the additional flowering time I could have done through the years if LED technology existed, I'd have had an extra truckload of bud to smoke. I did another application of Axiom Harpin a|b Proteins this evening, right before dark. I'm expecting a big growth burst this week, leading up to the flower stretch. I really need them to trigger under 14/10 within 4 or 5 days🙏 ...if not, I'll switch to 13/11 and wait a few more days🙏😟..if still no pistils are poppin, I'll go to 12/12 and chalk it up as bad luck or varietal indifference to Pr and Pfr manipulation. 1/17: I fed each of them about 3/4 gallon of full strength veg nutes. This will be the last. I'll go with half-strength veg and half-strength bloom for a week, then go with full strength bloom nutrients until I start flushing them in 6-8 weeks. 1/18: I installed the second far-red flowering initiator today and got all my timers configured for flowering: ========================================= timer#1 - power strip with qb's and red boosters   10:00am -12:00am  timer#2 - (dual/independent setting)             sideA- 3-way cube with uva bars                   10am - 3pm                    7pm - 11pm             sideB- flowerpower uvb                    1pm - 1:15pm                    4pm - 4:15pm                    7pm - 7:15pm                    11pm - 11:15pm timer#3 - far red pucks   11:00pm - 12:15am timer#4 - sub-canopy tube   10am  - 1pm    3pm  -  6pm    8pm  - 11pm ======================================== I also did some testing on the timers and sealed myself into the closet to check for any light leaks. All good.👌 1/19: Looks like the FIM job didn't take on one of them..but she's got perfect symmetry. WIll probably have to just top her again next week...gonna be a tall one I think. Tonight is their first long night. It's ON!👍 1/20: I watered them today with about a half gallon each. I'm seeing calcium and magnesium deficiences here and there, so added some boomerang and heavy cal-mag-Fe along with liquid molasses, humic acid, and endoboost myco. I also foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. That's it for week 4-

Week 8 Flower Flush flush flush 💦🚽💦🚽💦 It's extremely important to flush for at least 14 days when using synthetic nutes, or any bottled nutes in my opinion. The aim is to make her cannibalize (fade) as much as possible before she's chopped. By doing this, she's using up her stored nutrients, causing the leaves to eventually die. The better the flush the cleaner the smoke 👌💨 even when in an organic set up, the plant needs to be nicely faded before being harvested. Otherwise she's still full of nutrients. I still feel I'll be able to get an even better flush when I eventually make the switch to RO water, as my tap water holds a ppm value of approx 150. It's not too much, but 0 is always better. She was taken down on Day 57 flower, after a 16 Day flush. I didn't want to take her any further as she was quite stressed being so close to the light. So to avoid getting seeds I waited until she had a beautiful fade before giving her the chop ✂️ I always take my girls down about 30mins before the light turns on so there is minimal chlorophyll production in the plant. This is to ensure the best smell, taste and overall burn after drying and curing. A subtle but very sweet-ish tropical fruit skin kind of smell to her. Her buds are super dense and covered in trichomes. I trimmed off all fan leaves and then each branch was hung in my drying box and placed in a cool area. She was dry after 6 days and ready to be dry trimmed and jarred for curing. I'll post those pics with the harvest update! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

Day 22 girls got watered today with double nutrition and are doing great Day 23 we had a few without yellow tips so we thought they could use a flush but some to realize it’s probably low on something so normal water tomorrow Day 24 today we found out we were not putting enough cal mag the instructions said 2ml for one liter not gal. So today we hooked them up and started some LST Day 25 we started LST on all the girls Day 27 still working on LST I over watered the girl yesterday so today the got a day off Day 28 girls got watered today bottom was a little dry everyone is handling LST well so happy to see all the bud sights

17 January 2021 The seed has germinated and the plant has risen. 19 January 2021 The seedling had struggle with germination because the seed’s shell was stuck on the sapling causing the first pair of leaves to grow stuck in the seed shell and had to remove the shell by hand. This has put a minor delay on the plant’s growth.

Flower41, riego con EC 2.6 y pH 6.3, los cogollos están muy gruesos y densos, definitivamente este cultivo debería ser mucho más productivo que el anterior. Flower44, riego con EC 2.5 y pH 6.2, a un par de días de terminar el proceso y cosechar.

Over all growth was outstanding on this plant. Huge props to Mephisto on a wonderful strain. Caked in frost. Super stinky! I had to pop more seeds of this strain of course! Terps exploding, even the lower larf is dense with superb resin production

Flowering Day 3: This lady has been continuing to impress with her fight to be top dog. Her flowering is well underway now and i am hopeful she will produce better than her mother. I fed her too much N as she was part of a res supplied feed that i couldnt lower for her finish as i still had too many that needed full strength. Seeing her structure after the quad has already given her a better chance of more mains and the node spacing is way better than her mom. The actual Flowers are a nice ball shape emerging from the tops too. These should hopefully become the baseball bats advertised in the sales patter ! Surely One of us on here will get a good pheno of this strain?????
