Garden Update - Things are progressing nicely
Gorilla Glue #1 is looking awesome so far.
GG #1 after its first trimming to remove lower branches.
Gorilla Glue #2 is just a day behind the other one.
GG #2 is getting a trim tomorrow morning.
Granddaddy Purple is growing like a beanstalk.
I only have three plants going right now, but they are going to be monsters soon. Hopefully I didn't start the GDP too early because I don't want it to try and take over the tent while the Gorilla Glue is trying to finish flower. I still have a couple weeks before GG begins flowering, but these autos move fast and they will be in flower before I know it.
So far, I am really impressed with this soil. I haven't fed my plants any nutrients yet because they are getting everything they need from the soil blend. I am planning on adding some of the pesticide mixture with the next watering because I saw a tiny bug flying around the tent this morning. I smashed it, but when there is one, there will be more, so I need to stay on top of it so that I am not overrun by gnats soon.
The GDP is growing like a beanstalk and is looking really strong. It will be cool to see how it progresses compared to the autos. I do love how fast autoflowers grow, but I am excited to see what my first photo period harvest is going to look like. I am guessing I will get at least 8 ounces of GDP, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being closer to 3/4 of a pound or so. Once the GG is done, the GDP will have the whole 4x4 to itself and three lights.
I am probably going to be starting a Northern Lights auto in a few weeks and just grow it in my small tent under one light. My last Northern Lights batch is one of my best and I will probably run out pretty soon. I am going to have to do a full strain review of that one day. The buds are super thick and have such an amazing smell.
Speaking of smell, I haven't had to hook up my filter in the room yet, but in the next couple weeks, the GG will begin flowering, so I will need to rearrange a few things and get my big fan and filter set up. The new filter I got has a removable cover on it that can be washed to extend the life of the filter, which is nice because I really hate how short the life span is on them. They only last a few months, and at $60-$80 each, the costs add up really quick.
Well, that is it for now. Over the next couple weeks, things will progress really fast in the grow room, so it should be pretty exciting soon. Thanks for stopping by and checking on the progress of my babies.

Dude, I don't know much about weed, but they look very healthy as plants. I hope they continue like this and grow big enough to make their father happy.
Thanks man. They are really healthy right now. I've learned a lot since I started growing and I am hoping these will be my best ones yet.
The more you try, the more you learn and the better you get at growing plants. That's what I think, and I hope these will be the best and they will all get better and better.
Several years ago when I was on a massive unlicensed farm in southern Oregon, we had a few random Gorilla Glue seed plants that we kept on the corner of the farm, and unfortunately I left back to Cambodian while it was still hanging, so I never actually got to try it.
Oh man, you are missing out. Gorilla Glue is one of my favorites. Such a smooth and balanced high.
Looking good! I would also set some sticky traps. Then maybe use the soil drench as a last resort. But spraying the leaves once a week is a great idea, and will give you an advantage.
Very nice growth so far! I'd like to hear your review on the NL even tho I've heard you say that was one of your favs!
I'll definitely work on a strain review of it. It is one of my all time favorite strains. It was the first strain I ever grew.
Looking good bro,
The Gorilla Glue has a really nice compact node structure. I love those side shot photos exemplifying those nodes, very nice.
I think you will like diatomaceous earth if you give it a try. It seems like the fungus gnats are damn near impossible to get rid of with nasty smelling insecticides, and with the insecticides I've used, they don't even work half as good as the D-earth.
Can't wait to see the GDP get bigger and def support the decision to grow some more Northern Lights.. I haven't smoked it in years but I remember it was super good, and seems rarer these days than it once was years ago.
Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks man. I am hoping that they stretch out a bit more, but I think they will begin doing that during their pre flower phase that should be starting in a week or two. These things grow so fast, it can be hard to keep up with them. I’m hoping to be able to get some training in soon so they can fully recover before they move into flower. The GDP is gonna be a lot more laid back because I can control so much more of it.

That plant is like it's welcoming you and is ready for some hugs in the 2nd shot.
Wow the Gorilla Glue #1 looks just spotless. The perfect plant. That lush green...🤤
Thanks. I am excited to see how this one turns out.
I love how some of us here still get to enjoy growing herb like this. This could get me in a whole lot of trouble if I experimented on it and somehow got caught. It is regarded as illegal where I come but that doesn't mean I don't get to try it!
The plants look amazing :)
Nature has really blessed us. Undeniably we have more supply everyday because nature never disappoints.
When I tried fresh weed for the first time. Enjoyment was an understatement.
Am glad for this your progress
Cheers
