Day 43

Been super busy but all is well.

It wasn't easy this go. I fought spider mites, fungus gnats, scheduling conflicts, timer issues, and for the love of god why won't my cat stop eating my leaves!

I'm quite proud I got this far and they're looking this healthy.

Another reason I don't like cats!! Lol! Read Mike's story again and your battles will seem like a walk in the park!!

Hey royal. I like your style lol. I train in very much the same way and lookin at your pics we have similar set ups. I just did a batch of gdp outdoor. It was THE BEST outdoor I have ever done (I have about 7 seasons od exp.) it rivals in quality with my indoor. I have to do a run inside under the lights just to see what I can do with her in perfect conditions. Where did u get the seeds from? I got mine from msnl. I've never ordered anywhere else. Thinking about trying another vendor just to see if the grass is greener on the other side lol. I am just a little Leary cause if it ain't broken don't fix it and I have a great track record with msnl

[Royal Nugs]

I just noticed this sorry for the late reply. I order from attitude. I love the selection and promos.

Day 51

Starting flush tomorrow or Wednesday. I've been backing off the nutes by 50% for almost a week now. It's a tad earlier than I wanted but I'm behind schedule. Trichomes are mostly cloudy on both plants with a few amber here and there.

Going to harvest early next week. Not pleased with the gorilla glue but the GDP is going to make up for it.

[Pankace]

Still looking good though!

Wow! Looks like a great harvest! Do you have something else for the flowering tent when these come down?
great job on the grow!

I have 4 young ladies getting long in the tooth waiting for vacancy.

[Tika]

I'll trade you my 8 for those 2!!! Absolutely thrilling plants ( and tidy tent!). You sure can maximize your space. A portrait in economy of knowledge and understanding.
Truly beautiful Royal Nugs.

[Royal Nugs]

Thanks for the kind words. This has been my worst run by far. Mostly because the mites. I let the GDP get too big so she's light stressed.

I hope I get back on track with my next grow.

Yeah, I have a 4x4 full and waiting! LOL!

Hello Royal

What size are your pots and did you buy gorilla glue #4 seeds? I like the original GG but can't find seeds for it what the heck is the #4 meaning?

And I hope the bugs are gone for you and I wish I could smell these plants.

[Tika]

I was wondering the exact same things this am too

[Royal Nugs]

I'm running gh power growers which are basically 5 gallon drip buckets. I threw an air stone in the reservoirs too.

It works well but I want to experiment with organics and different medias.

The GG is in fact #4. It's a clone I got from my uncle. He failed to mention the spider mites but he didn't know.

The mites never completely went away even after consistent spraying in veg with azamax, sm90, and spinosad. I stopped using all spray when I switched to flower hoping they were all dead. About 2 weeks in, I noticed a leaf with mites. It's been an uphill battle ever since but they're contained mostly and it's only a week from harvest. I'll be glad when they're chopped.

Oh, and the #4 is referring the phenotype it is. So if I pop 10 seeds and one has desirable traits, I select that pheno and mother it. In GG's case, number 4 was the keeper. OG 18 is another popular strain that comes to mind with the same pheno designation.

[Karlee]

Thanks for the info..I like the size of 5 gallons but in a 10 gallon tub the roots are happy spreading out but if you get good yields with it I might check it out for a grow.

[PuravidaC]

Well done!! I only top once but after seeing your girls I'm gonna have to change my ways!

[Royal Nugs]

I only topped her twice! Defoliation and training is the most important part.

[Royal Nugs]

Started flush today and put my MH bulb in place of the HPS. I run the MH in veg and 1st and last week of flower. It's what I've done with all my grows. The first week of flower to help reduce stretch and the last week to help finish.

I just spotted a few purple trichomes. The leaves are darkening too but I can't get my temps down to help her color up more. I also wish I could let her ripen a bit more but timing is everything and I got little ones eager to flower.

Heres a pic of the GDP under MH spectrum.
