It definitely appears to produce some nice bud though.

I like to leave some of the smaller leaf material as well. It is very smokable and it has a lot of trichomes.

I DM'd you I think lol.

What I was referring to was a video I watched which was a strain review of the Gorilla Cookies Auto. As far as the defoliation, I only defoliates lower branches/leaves. Which they did not grow back. I took a photo from a better angle to show how the lower portion of the plant looks. As far as my...

This actually sounds like a really fun experiment! I am totally doing this next! I am going to setup my 2x2 and start growing a mother immediately! I recently bought a nice camera so I will document the whole thing. Thank you for this wonderful idea! Such an easy thing to test as well.

I think it paid off! I did a little looking up of this strain before growing and the breeder claimed it handled defoliation well. I have to agree! Honestly my big reason for defoliating is it makes pest management easier, watering easier, and allows better airflow through the plant which helps...

***UPDATE*** She is in full swing flower. It's been a minute without an update so here it is. She just received her final feeding for the entire grow. A top dress of about 1/2 cup Dr. Earth FlowerGirl. I cannot wait for her to swell and finish out. All I gotta do is water. Every third watering...

***UPDATE*** I did my final defoliation on the plant today. I only removed the lower branches on the underside of the plant. I think the plant structure turned out really nice. Also she has kicked into high gear already with her trichome production. Can see the little heads at only 5.7x zoom.

I have ordered seeds from ILGM before and had great success. Not specifically Durban Poison Auto but they have great seeds. Humboldt and Blimburn also have them and are very reputable. Auto Seeds has them as well. I've grown some of their seeds in the past with good success.

I don't know if it's my method of growing or if these plants just have crazy genetics. This has been one of the easiest grows I've ever experienced so far.

This was insanely helpful. I have watched probably a dozen videos on how to dry and cure. I've never seen anybody mention what you mentioned in the second part of that reply. It makes total sense though to draw the moisture from the center and then essentially redry

I have used it in the past. I believe it does have some very useful minerals in it as it is well water and there is no filter on my well. Which I think means it is just really clean water. I use a carbon filter on all my grows as well. I can't wait for her to be done! Very excited to try. Do you...

I appreciate the advice. Currently I have the light set to 80% power hanging around 18" above the plant. I have been gradually increasing it from about 20% up until now.

Thank you very much. This is my first time growing organic, so i'm hoping I don't encounter any issues

This plant has been growing fast. She is approximately 30 days old. Give or take 2-3 days. I am growing it under the AC Infinity Iongrid S22. I am using Dr. Earth Premium Gold All Purpose and Dr. Earth FlowerGirl for my nutrients. My soil is roughly 70% Promix HP and 30% earthworm castings...
