Here’s a pic of a purple gorilla auto I chopped about a week ago.
In this photo she was about 2.5 to 3 weeks from chop? Unfortunately haven’t got any close ups or close to chop but she was probably the frostiest auto I’ve grown!
She really swelled up in the last week and I got just under 2.5 ozs of quality bud.
Roughly 8 hours of direct sun a day grown in 100% coco.
I accidentally topped her thinking it was one of the photoperiods, which slowed down veg growth slightly.
I think if grown under 18 or 20 hours of light and Untopped, she could be a big yielded!?
Awesome strain, and was fairly low odour when growing but smelt very nice!

Looks nice, good tight structure. I haven’t done an auto yet, not on my list of “to do’s”. I’ve got way too many beans I’m keen to run and I keep getting or making more..... I think I’ve got a habit :roll:

Yes, it did have a tight bud structure. The outdoor sun also helps with that I think.

I still prefer my photos, but the autos are good if you have a bit of space in your veg room or want a bonus harvest outdoors in the off season etc.
I only started growing some autos about a year ago and I’ve noticed that in general the trichome production isn’t quite the same as photos.... but this purple gorilla surprised me.
Some strains have shocking yields and some have very good potential.
Picking the right strain is crucial with autos imo.
And I’ll be ordering some more purple gorilla soon I think :cool:

lol soz, mate. ;)

I read your post, that's why reminded me to dig this jar out. (I couldn't believe you still had some!)
I'd been hitting mostly Crater Lake and King's Banner recently.
Smoke stuff all lately cple years ago woulda chopped it all an smoked up till it was gone, Definetly more hooked on the growin side of things nowadays.. I like to mix it up as well wen i only had a g of it left i thought to meself ill put her away for another time an after last cple days with the young bloke i thought id break it out..
Went done nicely :bigjoint:

Edit: That Kings Banner sounds like some decent bud.. Good genetics from wat i was lookin at

Yeah, you def deserve it after that.
Hope the youngin' is doing a bit better eh.

The KB is very nice. Maybe best pain killing strain I've ever had.

It's pretty strong for sure and the OG influence is probably where the pain killing comes from.
My two keepers are distinctly different.
One is bushy and more fuelly so def more Banner influence while the other is more classic OG.

Yeah I rip that elv8r on an hourly basis at least.
Love that damn thing.

What the hell is wifi? Seriously how does it work I absolutely don’t get it. I mean, I get it and I use it daily, but how tf does it actually work??

it’s just radio wakes at a set frequency. 2.4ghz and 5ghz to be precise.

wifi itself though is more a set of protocols for use within those frequencies.

I still don’t get it. Does that mean essentially we’re walking around in a giant microwave?
And what makes radio waves?
