Purple and Gorilla Glue - First grow (small)
Purple and gorilla glue
My first grow of autoflower seedlings. Purchased already sprouted.

I weighed these without removing the seeds or trying to remove excess stems. Purp yield 32 g and GG4 yield 24. So I’d say almost a 2 ounce yield is a safe estimate. I bought a jar but it was way too small, so I used ziploc bags. Is this okay???

K so these have been drying for 11 days @ 45% humidity and around 75F but the stems don’t snap (see 2nd pic). The only indicator I found online to know when they’re done was if they snap when u bend them. What do u guys think??? They’re pretty frosty. I smoked some last week and it got me high. Didn’t taste like weed. Didn’t taste like anything really.

Hard to take pics cuz I didn’t wanna get hella light in there but they’re still drying out. They’re smelling good and I can see the trich on the flowers lookin frosty so that’s a plus. I’d say good grow for my first try, seeds and all lol

The guy that sold me my plants trying to guilt trip me into selling him some of my harvest. Y’all saw these plants when I got them. The one almost didn’t make it cuz this idiot put it in a glass jar with compacted ass soil. Not to mention I BOUGHT the plants from him 😂 the audacity!!! 😂😂😂😂 I was cracking up tho this dude is out of his mind. Beware who u buy from.

That’s a fuckin wrap dude I chopped it a couple days ago after putting ice in the soil and leaving it in 2 days of darkness. I chopped and trimmed them. I saved my non fan leaf trim in a bin to dry too. Gonna try to make canna butter with it this weekend, was reading sugar leaf trim don’t gotta cure like the buds. I been maintaining 45% humidity and 75 degrees in the tent. I got a couple vents open in the back (where light doesn’t hit cuz it’s in my hallway) and I have a small fan going in there. Thanks to everyone I’ve grown with and learned from here! I’m gonna wait a bit to start another grow. I’d like to get the fox farms liquid nute line and test my skills from the first grow. I’ll keep y’all updated on the curing/drying process for this!!

Pic 1&2 is the ‘gorilla glue’ and pic 3 is the ‘purp’ (I still think these are mixed up). How long do u think until harvest? They’ve been in flower for a month now. I can see the trichomes, brown hairs, and they’re def fattening up. Boy I wish I’d used the tomatoe trellis on both of them. I don’t smell much but (read my next post).

I took a leaf off and put it in the back of my phone, it looks dope. Anyways I had an apartment inspection so I had to pack it all up and I realized how strong the smell is. They’ve been kinda in the open like just my closet with the closet doors shut, one is open with a fan to pull air out and one circulating inside. I had to light a fuckin incense to cover that shit. Onto to the next I don’t think I have spider mites. I sprayed them with neem, foliage and all, and then trimmed some leaves. I think dust from inside my fan got blown onto the leaves and that’s what caused the marking. I’ve checked the leaves and no sign of them.

Day: 118
The ‘gorilla glue’ - I sprayed foliage top n bottom just in case of spider mites. I think the guy might have mixed up the names when he sold them to me cuz this is supposedly the gorilla glue but the other plants buds look more like gg from what I’ve seen. This one has purp in the flower. I think this one is the purp.

Day: 118
The ‘purple’ - I think this ones the gg tbh. I’m happy to see better looking leaves now. New growth is lighter in color than the other strain but I think that’s normal for it that’s how it’s been.

This is on the fan leaves of the gg. I tried to rub it off but it doesn’t come off so it doesn’t seem like mold?? What is this??? I did JUST put a large oscillating fan in there , closer to this plant.

Day: 113
GG on the left and purp on the right. I’m alternating water and nutes every three days. Purp is showing nute burn and all kinds of problems. Idk man. Idk if it was because of all the shit that happened early on or if I did something wrong. But the gg looks fine. A bit of burn but not a lot.

Gorilla glue - not an update just better pics now that I got good light. Leaves are crystallizing and there’s a bit of a purple color on the inner part of the bud. I did trim a bit off last night to expose the lower bud sites.

Purp-not doing as good as the gorilla glue still. Wondering if this may be tied back to the health issues I had in the beginning of the grow.
3 years ago
Day: 107
Here’s a comparison pic. I think using that tomato trellis was beneficial in shaping the plant around so more bud sites would be exposed (the one in the pink bucket) vs the other which is the purp and I used 2 vertical trellis. It made the plant stay real compact not allowing it to go out and get more light. Lesson noted for the next grow.

Gorilla glue update - buds fattening up. It looks better than the purp, not a surprise cuz the purp had so many problems in the beginning. New light is coming in Monday!

Day: 104
Purp update - not as many bud sites and they’re smaller than the gg, the stems are thinner too. This one had problems in the beginning of the grow so it’s not a shocker that this is how it’s going. Still, it looks pretty good I’m gonna see it all the way through.

Day: 102
Fed w nutes and defoliated/moved things around. I snipped off the bottom most branches that weren’t really budding. They’re about 4 feet tall, I had to bend one of the branches off the purp over to the gg so it would get some light. Temp been at 75 humidity around 45-50. Seeing lots of white hairs, a few brownish tips or hairs not sure can’t quite see. Notes for my next grow - the tomato trellis is great or at least the roundness of it. Last pic is the new light I ordered. So I’m gonna have my tent going with the current light on seeds and then I’ll transfer to the bigger light for flower and keep them on rotation. I have at least 30 seeds so I’ll have plenty lol

Holy shit 100 days! I moved the girls into my closet today because they were literally over growing that tent and I didn’t see it being beneficial anymore for them to be in there. I’ve been alternating between feeding with flower nutes and water w seaweed. The lights are on 1212. I didn’t have the fan on for the last couple of weeks because my apartment is very cool and I just had all of the vents open, but now that they’re in the closet I’m turning the fan back on. I read that thickens the stems. Wanted to get some advice on these lower branches, they’re dying and not budding. I think this is fairly normal. I’m wondering if I should snip off the parts that aren’t budding? And how should I trim the rest? Should I just remove what’s blocking the buds or some other method?

Light is on 18/6. I feel like these are growing really slow. The front taller one is the purp and the back shorter one is the gorilla glue. I watered them w tap water w seaweed. Top dressed the purple in the front w calcium to try to fix the yellow coming in on the tops. The guy that sold them to me told me they were autos??? Maybe not???

Day: 69
Defoliated the girls and started feeding w flowering nutes. I noticed some of the bottom leaves were drying up so I gotta stay on top of the watering. I really like the trellis set up on the front one. Got two upright ones from the dollar tree. It definitely grew a lot since I got it set up on those. I used a tomatoe trellis on the back one and it was a bitch to set up. Had to bend the bottom. But it’s all I have so whatever works lol

Day: 62
So you can tell from the picture that they are pretty much taking over my tent at this point I am debating whether I should get a bigger tent. I also wanted to ask for advice on what to do now because I don’t think LST is really feasible and I don’t know how beneficial it would be going forward because they’re already so big. I think I need to get the trellis set up for it already? The purple is still considerably larger than the gorilla glue. The gorilla glue finally started growing from the topping I did and the two main colas are about 3 inches in length now. lots of pistils popping up. Not seeing deficiency signs. Been watering every 3-4 days. I believe my last update was when I fed nutes. Since then I just did plain water. Didn’t check ph. I don’t understand if it’s the soil or the water that needs to be ph cuz my soil always reads high 7 but everything seems fine?? I’ve ph the water 3 times now to 6.5 or lower and the soil ph hasn’t changed. Or maybe my meter sucks? Idk. But all is well I’m happy. I don’t even run the humidifier I bought for them cuz it’s fine as is. Just the fan and all the vents are open. Humidity 50-60% and temp around 70-75.

Watered, adjusted ties, defoliated. Purp is back full force with growth. Gorilla glue is prob gonna bounce back from the topping with this feed. I top dressed w calcium supp and watered then I saw the freakin roots on the top so I put more of the medium on top and sprayed to moisten. I’m on a smoking tolerance break and the smell is just calling my name. I can’t wait to see these start budding.

Purp- I’ve seen some amazing growth in the last 4 days. Those 2 colas are growing nicely, I tied them down today and adjusted the other ties, did a bit of defoliating. I’m gonna get the Mars hydro ts600. I’m a little worried bc my tent is only 48” tall ... do u think I’ll need a taller one?! I was thinking I needed a bigger one anyways as this is a 2x2.

Day: 53
Gorilla glue - seeing some good growth here. Not as much as purp prob bc I just topped it. No fears. It’ll bounce back. I’m stoked. Thinking of topping a side cola maybe in the future? Idk. Maybe that would b better for purp.

Day: 49
Both - lst made a huge impact on the lower growth, some of them were able to catch up. I did a bit of defoliating and re did the ties with a new soft tie down. I dressed the top with the soil acifier in my last post on both. Top dressed purp with worm castings. After I watered I could see some of the roots at the base of the stem from the soil sinking in. Purp had a couple leaves that were dried and crumpled, prob cuz I didn’t water for way too long. I tried to ph the water. I can confirm it’s at least 6. Idk why I bought these stupid ass test strips they don’t even go low enough for what I need .... soil was still reading at a high 7. I ph the run off (pictured). I raised the light a bit. Been keeping temp around 70-77 and humidity between 40-60%. There’s a pic of the close up of a stem with a few bud sites. Still no sign of pistils 😩

Both- going to keep them on the 18/6 light schedule, they seem to be growing again now. I can smell the dank coming in, I can see my gorilla glue is finally showing stipules. I can see growth from exposing the inner nodes as well. I noticed purps pot was considerably lighter than gorilla so I’ll be keeping an eye on that.

Gorilla glue - are those pistils???
4 years ago
Day: 41
Both - prior to this they’ve been on a 24/7 light. I turned off the light for 12 hours to let them rest post-transplant. I read somewhere that the base of the node will enlarge when the plant is storing up energy, so I’m glad to see those present. I checked the tie downs, adjusted bc the plants were tilted. I’ll be finding another material to do lst with, maybe something softer. I noticed there was a wee bit of damage to 2 stems, the wire may have rubbed on them. I’m also happy to see that moving the tent to a warmer place increased the heat enough so I can run the fans without the temp and humidity dropping. Doing the most with what I got rn

Gorilla glue - the leaves are drying and curling under. I don’t understand why this one is so finicky. I think it needs more nitrogen or calmag. Ideas?

Day: 41
Both - made this and fed them about 1/4 gal each. The top and bottom of the soil was dry but the middle was a bit moist according to my reader. I used the lemon juice to get the ph down. We will see how they like this over the next few days.

Redid the ties again this time bending over the stalk around the top to the side of the pot side as much as I could to expose the lower sections.I wish I would have done this earlier but I think we still have time for it to have an effect

Day: 40
Moved my tent in front of a sunny window in an attempt to naturally increase the heat. The corner it was in was dark cuz I didn’t want peeping toms to be able to see but I think it’ll be fine there. I’ve seen like 2 gnats in the tent I think from me leaving it open, I had a problem with gnats in my houseplants and it’s almost gone. Hopefully they don’t get infested. I’m ordering sticky traps and a new light ASAP

Day: 38
Purple - wow look at those roots after 2 1/2 weeks! I put 2 tbsp mykos in the transplant hole. I wanna lst but I think the stem is too tough now I’m not sure if I should try? I really want those bottom leaves to get more light.

Day: 38
Gorilla glue - same as the other, promix hp mychoriizzae with worm castings and 2 tbsp mykos in the transplant hole. 3 gal pot. I’m expecting more growth out of this transplant cuz last time I couldn’t get the mykos in the hole. I had to put it around the sides. Oooh I ordered a humidifier today so that should be here soon!!
4 years ago
Day: 36
Purple - so I did some research and it said don’t top on ur first grow blah blah but I like learning the hard way SO I decided to top purple as she’s healthier, and I’ll let gorilla glue grow without topping. We will see how it goes. I also really think it needs a new pot now. Roots have been coming out more and more since the first time I saw them, and now they’re like bigger and there’s a lot coming out. The plant also isn’t growing its leaves out horizontally and I think it needs the bigger pot to have that growth. I THINK this pot is 1 gal or 1/2 gal. I wanna get a 3 gal pot and transplant very soon. I’m debating if I should just do it ASAP or wait til I see growth from the topping or what I should do. I think it would be good to top and put it in a bigger pot so it can have room to grow the roots to push out the two tops.

Day: 34
Thoughts - Got the temp and humidity in a good place. Closed up all the vents. I’m misting the tent a few times a day. I check them several times a day so the tent gets opened frequently and I air it out before misting in an attempt to circulate the air. I know this is a short term fix until I get the humidifier. Then I’ll run the clip on fan in there and open the vents until the smell is too strong, at which point I’ll get the in-line carbon filter fan and close up some vents. - does this plan sound good?

Sweet & Sour Chicken Hey I been following your grow and I would like to say you are doing a amazing job 👍 keep up the good work I know you mentioned you needed a humidifier and there’s one that I truly recommend on Amazon it’s the TaoTronics Humidifiers, 4L it’s like $50 but the humidistat helps so much managing RH without you having to be around it good luck! 🌱😎

kushqween Is it too late to top it ?? If this is all I have for flowering then I’m sad cuz I lost so much on the bottom
hem-p Yes , but still to early to identify it as female tho. & not to late to top it. Nice grow so far 💯👏🏽👏🏽
kushqween Yeah I got these off a guy who said they’re auto females but I have my reservations about that. I’m glad it isn’t too late to top it. I’ll do that prob tomorrow on both.

Purple - brought her outside to take a pic in natural light...Noticing the leaves are a darker green than gorilla glue. Pleased to see no signs of deficiency. This is the one that is starting to smell for sure. It smells so fucking good omfg I can’t wait to smoke this shit. At this point, I think I wanna clone this one bc despite all the bs at the beginning of the grow, it’s really powered through it all and came back healthy as shit. I’m loving this strain.

Day: 33
Gorilla glue - came outside so I could take a pic a natural light. This plants leaves is visibly lighter in color than the purple. I’m not sure if that is just the biology of the plant or if there is a deficiency or excess. The new growth looks good and it’s coming in at the same speed as last week about 2 to 3 days for new leaves on the top to come in and start spreading new ones. roots are poking out the bottom, I continue to push them in with my finger. I think I’m gonna try to push them in deeper with something long like a rounded stick or maybe a small tampon applicator can push it up there. I don’t think it’s ready for transplant yet.

Last night I sealed up all the vents to see what would happen to the temp and humidity. I’m at a 5 point increase in humidity. It has been cooler in my area recently. Going to keep the vents closed for today to see how it progresses. / on another note, when I opened the tent today, it smelled like weed a bit. I smelled purple and there’s a slight smell coming from it. Does this mean anything ?? Lol. There’s so much to know / another note , new growth is coming in where I chopped the dead leaves. Idk why I thought it wouldn’t grow back. Of course it does.

Shopping for a new light to do veg and flower with. The first pic is a few. Obvi Mars hydro is well known and established. Anyone familiar with the other two? Thoughts ? The second pic is my current light, once I upgrade I’ll use that one for veg only.

kushqween Reviews on the middle one said it really only pulls 600w ... which is the same as the other two options. I need more heat in my tent and I was reading the purple lights tend to be cooler and the Mars type with the yellow white light rays are hotter?
NorthernGrow204 My two “blurple” lights in my 2x4 when turned on create an extra 7 degrees Celsius, 1 is a 1600watt phlizon, 1 - 1000watt growstar cob.. Never used a Mars light yet, but they are on the mind for when replacing the currents. Mars does have a great reputation, I wish I would have went with them right off the bat.
Greenstalk Good to know!

Gorilla glue - trimmed the lower leaves that were not beneficial to her. The newest set of leaves is technically the 4th set, but the first two were bad so they got the chop.
4 years ago
Day: 31
Purple - newest leaves coming in are either the 5th or 6th set. I think the lower 2 got chopped and they got stunted so they were close together. The third one is the one with just one leaf on the right, then 4 and 5 are there, and 6 is coming in. Is my plant math right? I tucked in the roots coming out the bottom. I really want the roots to get strong in there before transplanting. I’ll monitor the roots coming out.

herbhorder See if you can bump the temp to around 79-82F and the humidity bump that up to the high 60’s
herbhorder Otherwise it looks good!
kushqween How do I increase the temp in the tent ??? A heater would be like too strong I would think

Purple - decided to check the bottom and I see roots coming out. This is AMAZING bc when I transplanted from the original cup there was only a couple inches of root. I also think when I watered it the soil compacted and the roots sank. So now the question is...how big should the next pot be? This is a half gallon I believe. Should I do it now or wait til there’s more roots? I wasn’t anticipating this I thought it would stay in this pot!!

I think the ph has gone down ever so slightly. The next water I’m gonna feed them 30-10-10 with seaweed and test the ph before watering. Humidity has increased a bit too, it’s getting warmer where I live.
4 years ago
kushqween I realized that the light gauge is for natural light, which is still cool for my houseplants! Lol. I think it’s pretty accurate for ph. I haven’t measured my water yet but I know I need to cuz I need the ph to go down.
relapse You can NOT use these as your ph meter. Ever. That’s doing a huge injustice to you and your plants. The only thing they’re good for is telling u the soil is wet or dry but u can also just look at the soil that’s about as accurate as these get.
kushqween @ relapse do u mean this style of meter or this brand of meter or ?

So today I watered them until the water ran through the bottom for the first time. I was scared to water them through while they were smaller. After I watered, the soil sank in and I was able to see a root popping out of the surface. I’d say this is proof of my poor watering habits. The roots were growing to the side because that’s where the water was. I pushed it in and I’m going to put a bit of soil over the top. How far into the soil should them stem be ?? Also, I think they are growing their third set of leaves. Is now the time to top it? Also want to note I dusted the smallest amount of calcium supplement on the top of the soil for the one with discoloration. I’m thinking it’s a calmag deficiency. I’ve never given them that. My ph is a little high (almost 8) so I’m looking into how to lower that too.
4 years ago
kushqween Also, those pots were heavy as shit after I watered them!!! Lmao
NovaCanee Basically all you need to do correct the p.h of your soil it’s too high(acidic) for your plant to uptake nutes being that you did a runoff watering this time..... next time water with p.h at 6.0 this will gradually over time bring your soil p.h down OR You can flush them out with at low p.H but be careful flushing also put major stress on plant depending on size
kushqween Thank you!! I think I need to get water ph tester. There’s so many gadgets and gizmos to get with growing lol I love it so much!

Adjusted the lighting, I need to get a mount or something for it so I can easily adjust it. Note to self never raise plant to light, always lower the light to the plant so the light can reflect off the ground. We will see how they like this distance from the light.

Gorilla glue - Hmm I took a pic with flash on and it kinda looks like there’s yellow around the edges. What does this mean? It popped up after I gave it regular water. It put on a bit of growth too it’s very close to the light now.

kushqween Also, I finally got the ph/light/moisture meter. Ph right around 6-7 (didn’t have my glasses on to see exact lol) I’ll have to fiddle with it and see what the read is on the lighting and exact ph. It seemed to be in ideal range. I need to get a humidifier ASAP so I can run the fan.
Balactus Just read through your journal. Yikes on that miracle grow. You made huge improvements though after. I don’t think you mentioned anywhere giving them cal/mag. I may have missed it but that kind of looks like what is going on with your bottom left leaf in that first picture. Were you planning to up pot again?
kushqween I haven’t given them that! I was just looking it up, what kind of supplement is best?? I actually just bought a 5 gal fabric pot. I would love to have them in a big pot like that. I’m guessing bigger pot means bigger plant ? This grow was pretty rough at the beginning I didn’t have the stuff I needed but I must say these plants are resilient af and doing really good still given the circumstances

Purple - Does this look normal?? I snipped of the first set of leaves that had crisped up and watered it plain water. Light cycle has been 24/7 for both for at least a week now. It put on quite a bit of growth and now this is it. Came far from just a few journal entries back.

NovaCanee It recovered really well i believe you should switch to 16/8 Plants Also Need Rest That’s When It’s Roots At The Bottom Are Most Active I also Did The 24 Hours And Realize How Much It Helped. And look into silica

My first nutrient mix I put 1 gal distilled water, 4g of the 8-8-8 , 5ml seaweed, and a tiny bit of azos (no idea the dosing on that one). Feeding plan is the nutrient mix, then I’ll do plain water, then the next water w/seaweed. Open to suggestions for feeding schedule. My nutes were given to me by another grower so I don’t have brands for the first three nutes listed w/just npk #s.

I got my temp/humidity meter.... actually unsure what they should be at. Any suggestions ? It’s been right around 50-57% humidity and around 70-65 degrees in there. I added my money tree and a couple cups of water to increase humidity and it went up a couple points. But again, not sure if that’s even necessary.

Balactus Not optimal by book standards but still near perfect. Mine has been operating in on average 60s temp and humidity fluxing at 20 on average. She looks very healthy. I’d assume you’re gonna be fine. My specs are environmental that I’m working on.
hashcompany You want your temp at 75 minimum and your RH to be around 55-60%. Google “vpd chart” and save a photo. Your vapor pressure deficit is mucho importante
greengrowlady I was thinking along the same lines as hashcompany.... definitely look up VPD. It will help get things dialed in for you.

Gorilla glue update - repotted in promix hp mixed with organic worm castings. I was supposed to add 2 tablespoons of Mykos to the bottom of the transplant hole but some thing happened when I went to transplant so instead I dug around the hole as close as I could and put the Mykos on the sides of the hole with the hope that when the roots get to it that they’ll take it in. Watered 4oz distilled water.

Purple update - repotted in promix hp mixed with organic worm castings. added 2 tablespoons of Mykos to the bottom of the transplant hole. Watered 4oz distilled water. I can see new green growth coming in around where it was burned. It looks deformed a bit .... Curious to see if this will seriously damage the yield or quality. I think as time goes I’ll see how it develops and if it has to take the chop, that’s how it’ll have to be. Going to give it some seaweed liquid here soon. Will update.

kushqween Also some history on this one, I got it in a glass container with no drainage. After a couple weeks I went to transplant and saw that the soil was rock hard, the roots were so small compared to the other plant which was planted a week later and had roots wrapping around the container it was in. So I transplanted it at that time and blogged that, and now it’s been transplanted to a 1 gal pot which is where it’ll stay

gouldy Ph in the water is not between 6 and 7 that’s for sure
Chaytacheese Read your journal, look back at how you applied the hydrogen peroxide? Those are the leaves you dealt with so maybe the dosage was too strong? I’m a novice grower and just guessing from what I read/saw.
kushqween Thanks for the input u guys!!! You’re probably right about that hydrogen peroxide. This is a good learning lesson for me. I’m hoping it gets better now that I’ve transplanted it. I do have a pH tester coming in soon so I’m definitely going to use that and keep an eye on it!!

pandalover Hella good job for autos I suggest putting them straight into a 3 gallon fabric pot so it air prunes naturally and autos hate getting transplanted because you might not see it but it’s roots get disturbed I tried it on my green crack and it looked so bad I should of took some pics but I forgot but they are in flower now and are doing so much better I put mycorrhiza on them after a week and it helped it out so much if you want you can go to planetrevolutions.com and they have some sample sizes and it is so nice like they give a good amount for what you pay for I got the great white and orca and plant success organics soluble because that one you can just add to water and it will dissolve because some of them aren’t water soluble and you have to put it directly on the roots but good luck on your first auto grow
kushqween @panda thank u! Great tips !! I have some of that mycorrhizae in my soil that I just transplanted it into!! I read that was great for them. I’m gonna check out that site for sure !! That’s awesome!!!
pandalover Your welcome I know I had some ups and down on my first grow and I still do 😂😂 but good luck and have fun growing☺️☺️

So sad. Big purp got burned bad. Idk what’s even going on at this point. Might be a lost cause.

ogeast The culprit is almost always incorrect water ph.
kushqween I was using distilled water, then read the crap in tap water is good for them, so I gave them that. What do u think ?
ogeast The best advise I can give you is to buy a ph pen meter and ph tap water to 6.1 for synthetic nutes and for organic fertilizer a little higher ph around 6.5-6.8

Leaves are yellowing on big purp. I think it may be in shock or need nutrients.

Dr. GreenThumb I agree! Way to young to need anything, what’s your medium? Kinda looks dry amended maby...
