Gorilla Girl coco grow

[ShowMeGrowmie]

Hello everyone.

I am thrilled to start this grow journal. I have a Red Mandarine in flower that has been a joy to grow and I'm excited to give the Gorilla Girl a try.

I invested in quite a few Sweet Seeds recently and I got these as freebies with my order. I was stoked!

I "scuffed" the seeds by lightly shaking them in a tube of 320 sandpaper a couple times. Then soaked them in half tap/half reverse osmosis water that was Ph'd to 7.0, for approximately 3 hours. Then sandwiched between single-ply paper towel overnight in a sealed pyrex dish.

The beautiful buds in the background are the Red Mandarine. She smells almost like a synthetic orange candy. Unbelievable plant.

The next morning I woke up to my first radicle appearing.

The second had emerged the next morning (yesterday)

On to the jiffy pellets.

Those Red Mandarines look absolutely delicious!

Thank you! They are, indeed. They're getting redder by the day. I'm guessing another three weeks 'til harvest.

17 days since seeds were soaked.

17 days since seeds were soaked.

The seedlings were fully emerged two days after being placed in the jiffy pellets.

17 days since the seeds were soaked and they're growing fast. They're currently in a tray and humidity dome under CFL bulbs, soon to be moved to a 2x4 tent under a Mars Hydro TS1000. They're ready for a bit of breeze and fresh air.

The girls got moved to a 2x4' tent. They were showing some signs of over-fertilization so I've backed off on their nutrients a bit. I'm now at ~1.2 EC and they seem to be doing very well.

It's hard to tell from this shot but one of them already has some 9-lobed leaves. They're thriving!

I got one of those and ran it. It was a fast grower and demanded frequent watering. When curing she smelled like fresh roasted cofee. The TASTEt is a nutty flavor. It gets me bombed,,,like stupid high.
I would love to see how your turns out. I'm cloning mine

Oh man. I'm happy to hear that. I'm very much looking forward to finishing this grow out.

I've got one of their Red Mandarines that's got a few weeks left and it's just amazing smelling, looking, growing, everything.

I was hanging them in my spare bathroom and was blown away at the smell. It was like walking in to the coffee aisle at a upscale grocery store.

They've recently been up-potted, topped and prepped for manifolding.

The lankier one on the right has a really stinky stem rub. The one on the left smells unremarkable at this point. Both seem to be doing well after dealing with some slight nutrient issues. I've bumped up the Cal-Nit slightly and have done some cal-mag foliar feeding, which seems to have remedied that.

Nice prep ; they ' re ready for the big grow now !
