Dinafem Dinafem 2019 GOTY Finals - Auto Gorilla (Only1Sky)

[Only1Sky]

Greetings folks. I'll use this journal to track progress on my two Auto Gorilla plants competing in Dinafem 2019 Grow Battle Finals (Aug 18 to Dec 1).

My kit for this grow is:
Gorilla Grow tent: 4x4x8
Analog humidifiers with Inkbird Controllers
Medium: Roots Organics Original; amended with dolomite, azomite, silicium & worm casings
Containers: 3-gallon RainScience Grow Bags
Nutrient program will be substantially Greenleaf Nutrients
Lights are TBD; either Amare SE450UVB or CobShop AutoCobs or maybe one of each

Dropped two seeds 18-Aug for a nice soak in RO water. Seeds cracked, then into Jiffy Plugs. One sprouted , the other one did not (My fault, I kept the plugs too wet. )

Good luck mate !

Did a re-drop of seed for my 2nd Gorilla on 26-Aug. And it surfaced 3 days later. It's now day 10 for the 1st Gorilla, and we're not pleased with the misshapened leaves and burned tips. But so far she's only gotten daily misting and a little RO water.

Day 13 and 4 for the babies. The new growth on [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] seems to be OK. [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG] is coming along fine. They've been under a CobShop AutoCob light - up at about 25+". Daily mist spray rotates among plain RO water, SM-90, and Opti-Foliar.

Day 9 and 18. They're getting a lite/diluted feeding now of GreenLeaf's MegaCrop and Kelp Extract/Concentrate, plus a couple of drops of Roots Excellerator. Daily misting continues.

Day 23 for the first Gorilla. So off with her head. Here's the before & after:

Day 26 for Gorilla [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG]. She handled the topping well, so today I applied a little LST to the top forked branches to bring them down a bit. Gorilla [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG] at 17 days is coming along fine. Both getting fed with a lite MegaCrop mix with a bit of cal-mag. And, of course, misting once or twice a day.

Auto Gorilla no1 looks to have responded really well to the topping buddy with plant 2 plodding along

Not looking to bad at all

All the best

Day 31 for the first Gorilla, seems to be doing OK:

And day 22 for the 2nd Gorilla. Definitely a healthier plant. She's actually starting to overtake her 9 day older sister. Today she got topped.
