I really enjoyed growing Mother Gorilla. Although one plant snapped at the mainline during the very early phase of vegetation [Chong], we were able to save her and still get 8 main bud sites. The growth was of course hindered because of this and so she didn’t give us much in terms of grams - only about 20grams or so. Max on the other hand grew tall and strong. The leaves turned a beautiful purple during flowering and the bud size was notable. Not a difficult plant at all, enjoyed the grow!

Reviews. Nutrient
Easy to use and easy to see how much of the nutrient is needed on a week-by-week basis. Plants are not as sensitive to changes in dosage as other nutrients are to the plant which is also a bonus, especially because the PH is pretty well in balance with what is needed for the plant.

Buds are still wet and sticky. They have been cleaned and put in the drying rack with a humidity control. Once dried, they will be stored in jars with humidity packs. Smell is fruity and pistols seem almost perfect in colour. Will keep an eye on humidity in the coming days so that we don’t dry out the plant too much

Good luck and keep on growing🙌

Beautiful mainlining bro! Are you gonna have 8 true mains on Max and also leave those 8 "secondarys" in the center also? I normally like grow pretty much the same way but I leave only 4 "secondarys" after the second main-lining and this looks way more better/uniform! Will definitely try training like this the next time. Chong is also looking way strong for a cripple😊

@Budophile, I definitely understand and agree. A lot of energy is lost there. What I will try do is leave the main 8 going up, any others that start stretching I will try bend and use that space. We can call is v2.0 for sure, This is the first time I’m mainlining this way. I’ve done it the other way for years. But maybe this way allows more equally spread of everything…hopefully!

Yeah of course they'll take some energy from the "mains" but I dislike the conventional main-lining where you get 8 branches and the center gets left open if you don't tie some of the mains toward it. This way we'll get 8 nice big fat colas and with proper trimming of the lower nodes on the secondary shoots 8 decent sized colas as well and all the space gets used. Never have I seen a "tutorial" doing it this way so shall we call this method "Main-Lining v2.0"😊

@Budophile, thank you for such a nice compliment. Yes, there will be 8 main sites rising up. Trying to keep the plant from stretching too fast so the sites are closer, so they can fatten up nicely together! Let’s see what they look like in 5 weeks! I know that maybe the secondary will take energy from the plant. I’ve cleaned it before, willing to leave it this time. Chong is trying, she has been through a lot but big ups to her for believing in herself😂
