Gorilla [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] is at 10 days, and showing some funky leaf formation and stress. Her partner dropped at the same time never germinated properly, so we dropped a replacement on 26-Aug, and that one, Gorilla [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG], is just now poking her dead up.

DINAFEM GOTY - 30-Day Mark - Selection of Plant. This pains me to pick. I love them both and want another month before choosing. However .... lets go with #1, the older of the two. She's the one on the left.

Dinafem Auto Gorilla GrowBattle - Week 6 Update. Plant number 1 at day 52, now under the Amare SE450UVB.

3 gal cloth pot

GH cal/mag, Green planet Root builder, AN Big Bud, and Mega Crop.
ohh, and the love, always gotta supply the love.


@Dinafem-Mark , I know you wanna sponsor that dream grow buddy !!
I had talked earlier to @Dinafem-Mark and @themongal about not doing a gorilla for this comp as I'm already journaling one and have limited space. They were ok with that, but I've had issues in my grow room lately and I feel I owe it to myself and to the genetics I was given to do a better job. So I'm going to let another Gorilla out of it's cage !

Here we go ! @St. Tom@Rebel

Week 1 day 6 Dinafem OG Kush CBD @St. Tom

Sadly the Gorilla didn't make it through week 1 even, so I'm left with OG Kush. The original plant I was going to run for this comp anyway. I transplanted her at day 5 into a 3 gal cloth pot

Day 6 OGK

Dinafem OG Kush CBD Week 2 @St. Tom

Week 3 update, OG Kush CBD @St. Tom
Not a lot to report, I had to use a new bag of soil on this girl that came pretty wet. So I haven't done anything to it except let it sit in a saturated pot for a few weeks. Tomorrow I will give it it's first water.

Dinafem OGK auto Week 5 update @St. Tom

I've been really struggling in the grow tent lately, and this lady is no exception. I've been having so many crazy varying symptoms with all my plants it's been nuts ! I believe I have finally cracked it though. I ripped off a leave and put it under a scope. Sure enough, there was a TON of Broad Mite eggs. Hopefully I can get a handle on things and continue. I"m using a product that I happen to have on hand called End All. Hopefully it will work for these lil buggers.

Week 6 Dinafem OG kush CBD @St. Tom

Still fighting broad mites on my plants. I've got 2 weeks to get them under control before I have to decide to get rid of everything and start from fresh, or risk introducing new plants to possible mites.

week 7 This may be my final pic. Harvesting the last couple plants in my tent next week and think I may have to get rid of the rest of my plants to rid myself of what I suspect is broad mites. Thinking about letting this girl live in another room, but i'm just not sure that will be enough space to keep from having them work their way back in my tent. Uggg the horror.

Dinafem OGK Week 8 @St. Tom

Dinafem OG Kush CBD week 9 @St. Tom

@St. Tom Week 10 update. Dinafem OGK day 67

Dinafem OGK CBD , Day 73 @St. Tom

Cookies auto she has been transplanted into a 3gal fabric pot of coco with super soil and roots organic terp tea @ bottom 1/4 of pot and an airdome aswell also today just started training and removed about 8 leaves, any way this thing is growing well I'm really excited bc I also have a fourm stomper which is 30day younger or so. Here is some pics first pics of right after transplanting And rest are from today, she is @ day 34ish

week 8
So here is my Dinafem Cookies Auto for the Dinafem Grower Of the Year.
Still cruising along and it and interesting strain and this plant it's self is a bit odd this one branch has 2 distinct colas looks like a twin but directly under/ to the side there are more which look to be a bit behind the2 dominate ones also the 1st set of branches one of them is flat it's wierd

week 9 Here is my Dinafem Grower Of The Year cookies auto just cleaned up the underside she is growing well @ day 48 looks like 40 more but we will see

here is my official update she is stacking well I will put up some lights out pics anyway here she is

here is the dinafem grower of the year cookies auto still chugging along starting to build she is going to yield very well there are 10 or 12 tops and each are 9in long so buds should be chunky. Lmk next week is final pics right? Anyhow I'm very glad I was able to do this final and also glad I was able to use the cookies or I would have had to drop out out but I've really enjoyed doing this and am looking forward to next year so thanks everyone again including @Dinafemmark thanks for putting these on and being as generous with us here on AFN it's very appreciated my friend.
