Is this strains seed to harvest 10 weeks (2 months and 2 weeks) or is it 4-5 weeks in veg then 10 weeks in flower?

Thanks for asking! Yes, it takes 2 months and 2 weeks (10 weeks) from seed to harvest. Approximately 4 weeks vegetating and 6 in the flowering stage.

What is the ideal trichome distribution to harvest this strain?

Hello, thanks for asking! It depends on the type of effect you prefer, if you want a more cerebral effect you should harvest when the trichomes are mostly milky and if you want a more corporal effect you should harvest when the trichomes are mostly amber.

what nutrients should I give this strain?

While we can't recommend any specific nutrients or brands, we suggest doing some research to find out the best one available to you in your area. Basic veg and bloom nutrients are fine, as well as any bloom boosters you might want to try. Start out feeding about 1/3 of the recommended dose, and gradually increase it as you observe the plant's reaction. Be sure to flush with plain pH'd water if you see any signs of toxicity.

can a noob grow this?

Definitely! This is a good strain for beginner growers. It's low-maintenance, not requiring any special attention. However, consumption is recommended for experienced consumers as the THC content is quite high.

Can I grow this strain in a 5 gallon pot ?

Hello, 5 gallons may be too big for an autoflower, we usually recommend 12L pots (around 3 gallons) but if that's all you have, there's no problem at all.

What would be a good yield amount indoors for this one?

Thanks for asking! The yield will depend on the growing conditions but you can expect a minimum of 50g and a maximum of around 300g, the average would be around 100g.

what training is recommended for the gorilla cookies auto?

LST is a great training method for this strain in order to potentially increase yield as well as control size if necessary. This strain definitely responds well to it.

Does this strain work with SCROG?

Definitely! Due to its compact structure, it's a great strain for scrogging.

Do you keep the pH at 6.5 through out the life of the plant or is there different settings for different stages ie veg and flowering

Thanks for asking. It depends on the medium, please send an email to info@2fast4buds.com so we can help you better.

How long it takes from seed to harvest?

Hello, thanks for asking! This strain takes 10 weeks from seed to harvest.

Topping is not generally recommended to do to autos because it can potentially stunt their growth or overstress them. However, If you are experienced with autos and have a healthy plant, it could be worth trying. That being said, LST is recommended over HST if you want to improve yield or control size.

You say keep PH levels around 6.5. I just did 2 of your gorilla G and had excellent results but I let the PH fluctuate a bit(5.8-6.3). Should I keep PH consistently close to 6.5 or fluctuate from 6-7?

Hello, the pH depends on the medium you're growing in, it should be around 6.0-7.0 if you're growing in soil and around 5.5-6.0 for coco and hydro. The pH can fluctuate a bit but as long as it doesn't go too high or too low, you'll be fine.

What is the max number of plants would you recommend in a 2x2 grow space under an LED light?

Hello, in a 2x2m space you can have between 6-12 plants, depending on the size of the pots and if you do some form of training.

Is gorilla cookies good for outdoors in the UK?

Yes, this strain is super resistant to colder climates due to the excellent genetics inherited from her parents.

Hi I'm on week 4 and until now I've been on an 18/6 light schedule how will the plant respond if I switch her to 20/4? Will it produce a bigger yield?

Thanks for asking! It's most likely that your plant will produce more resing and denser buds, which results in higher yields.

How good is this strain for making dry sift?

Thanks for asking. Gorilla Cookies is a great choice for dry sift due to the amount of trichomes and quality of the resin.

If I grew one plant in a tent with decent fans would it stink the hole block out ?

Hello, thanks for asking! It won't stink the whole block but it can stink your whole house so it's essential you install a carbon filter to help eliminate the smell.

what's the minimum light ( Hps or led) that this girl needs?

Hello, you should provide a minimum of 75w per plant (hps) or a 30-40w LED.

Is a temperature of 23 ° C-28 ° C ideal for this strain?

Hello, thanks for asking. Ideal would be between 15-25°C but you can have great results as long as you don't let the temperature rise over 29°C.

Is this strain good for hydro growing?

Absolutely! This strain does well in most mediums.

What kind of yield can I expect if I do some LST?

Hello, thanks for asking. There's no way to give you an exact number because it will depend on your experience and environment but if you do it properly you'll definitely increase yields.

I am think of planting these seeds in soil what soil mix would recommend all mix or light mix?

Hello, thanks for asking. An all-mix can be too strong for certain strains so we recommend starting in a light-mix and only start feeding on week 3 or 4 if needed.

Description

Our best-selling and most awarded strain of all time has reached a whole new level. Thanks to continuous research, selection, and breeding, our hard work has paid off. In 2022, Gorilla Cookies Auto became the most potent, highest-yielding strain in our catalog and it’s now better than ever. This is a powerful combination of our top autoflowering strains of all time. One of the most potent autoflowering strains to date, with a whopping 28.5%THC. Gorilla Cookies takes on all the best qualities of her parent strains, making her something very special for all growers. As a balanced hybrid of Sativa and Indica, she performs incredibly well both indoors and outdoors while still being super-reliable and resilient to the elements. This strain is a massive producer, making it perfect not only for novices but also for commercial growers looking for potency, yield, and taste. Growers can expect around 650gr/m2 of extremely dense golf-ball-sized buds. The impressively high THC levels translate into an intense resin production making her buds almost completely white and covered in trichomes late in the flowering stage. This strain is a ultimate moneymaker and is a great choice for making all types of extractions not only for the quantity and quality of resin she produces but also for the exceptional aroma she reeks of.

Bud description

Gorilla Cookies grows extremely big, chunky, and dense buds with a beautiful mix of dark and light shades of green with bright orange hairs giving her quite the bag appeal. These flowers can only be overshadowed by their extreme frostiness, she starts producing huge amounts of trichomes as soon as she enters flowering and her buds will be completely covered in resin nearing harvest.

Smoke report

Being a perfectly balanced hybrid, this strain delivers an intense head rush that will leave you euphoric and giggling. It will slowly transform into a potent body high that you can feel on your eyes and face and will have you relaxed anywhere you are. It has a synergetic high, perfect for the end of the day, especially after a long day of work.

Plant Appearance

This lady grows stout and bushy, reaching around 150cm while displaying a compact yet robust appearance with wide internodal spacing. She will develop a thick main cola with fat side branches all around while not requiring much maintenance. She can produce up to 650 gr/m2 in around 10 weeks, putting her among the highest-yielding strains we’ve ever created. All throughout the flowering stage, you’ll be amazed at the insane trichome production. Especially in the final weeks when she definitely packs on some weight and you see the buds getting white in resin and reeking of cookies and gas.

Grow Tips

Gorilla Cookies Auto grows best in a soil that drains well but has good water retention properties. We recommend using a mix of coco coir, perlite, and worm castings to improve drainage and nutrient uptake. This particular strain thrives in a temperature range of 23-26°C during the day and 18-22°C at night. Maintaining the optimal temperature will promote good plant growth and development.To get the best results out of your Gorilla Cookies Auto, try nurturing it with high-intensity lighting. We recommend using full-spectrum LED lights with a light cycle of 18-20 hours per day. During the vegetation stage, focus on providing the plant with nitrogen-rich nutrients. Then, as it moves into the flowering stage, it\\\'s better to switch to a bloom nutrient formula with higher levels of phosphorus and potassium.To help maximise yields and structure, we recommend using low-stress training techniques such as LST (low-stress training) and SCROG (screen of green). These methods will help the plant to produce multiple colas and increase overall yield.However we do remind you to keep tabs on your plants for signs of pests and disease. You can use natural pest control methods such as neem oil or insecticidal soap to control pests if necessary. Additionally, it\\\'s good to note that by maintaining good air circulation and humidity control in your grow space - this will help prevent mold and other fungal diseases from developing!

Flavor

Gorilla Cookies Auto boasts a complex flavor profile that combines a rich kush flavor, with hints of earthy mint and a subtle sweetness that\\\'s reminiscent of freshly baked cookies! On the exhale, you\\\'ll notice a pungent mix of hazelnut and earthy tones, giving the strain its signature and memorable taste. This strain is perfect for those who enjoy a smooth and flavorful smoke that packs a punch. When properly cured, Gorilla Cookies Auto will reward you for your labors with an aromatic smoke that\\\'s sure to leave a lasting impression.

Overall, this strain offers a well-rounded and satisfying flavor to impress even the most discerning cannabis connoisseur.

Liverman

Commented 28 July 2022

Bro Autos all should get the most light possible or 24 hours a day. Some guys do 18/6 but its well known that more light with Autos is preferred. So lighting schedule is irrelevant. Focus on the simple things that make a massive difference. Most focus on nutrients. They think if they feed it more or with some special kind of booster that this is what Bud needs. The truth is people fail to acknowledge that temperature, humidity, light intensity, air flow, medium moisture levels are extremely important. To little light can stunt growth as well as to much light. Temperature can also slow of halt growth as well as cause nutrient deficiencies. Humidity can cause mold or mildew it can prevent the plant from taking in nutrients. It can also ruin Terpenes with to low humidity. They essentially burn off with high temps and low humidity. Focus on the environment and give the plant what it needs nutritionally and nothing more. Dont over or under water. Make sure your light is far enough away. The two biggest issues i run into when consulting cannabis grows is to much light yes you heard right or to many nutrients. You cant force feed a plant to produce more. It has a requirement and anything extra is ideal. You want to only feed what it needs. The easiest way to do this is start with a low concentration of nutrition then slowy increase until you see the tips of the leaves turn yellow. This is tip burn and it tells you you're feeding to much.

What type of soil and fertilizer do you use for planting?

Gubala

Commented 19 December 2022

I use 24 hours especially in the winter. U keep a even heat from the lights that helps with humidity if you do turn lights off in 18-20 hour cycle and humidity spikes. DLI & VPD are a good thing to watch a few videos and learn about. This will take you to the next level. Autos don’t like being over fed either 1-3rd of recommendations. Over feed and u end up with smaller plants than under feeding.

Heit

Commented 23 December 2022

I hope people listen to ur well informed comments! Over feeding I find is one of the biggest mistakes growers make and over watering. And environment is something that is often overlooked. If u have high quality lights they will be way too powerful as they are designed for a 12 hour cycle. Turn them down and go for efficiency. Very good points u made for less experienced growers.

^^^ I did the same thing. First time grower, learning a lot along the way. Still finishing up my first grow and despite my best attempts otherwise (see below), the ladies are bulking up into some nice frosty nugs. Things I Did Wrong :D -- Part 1 (For beginners like me or entertainment) ------------------------------------------------------ - Over-watered at the start - Light/Heat Burn mistaken as Over-Nuting - Undernuted Trying to Correct Above - Too High DLI and Too High Temps when Running Light at 75% (KindLED x750 in a 4x4) - Misunderstood Organics vs Synth Nutes for PPMs - Under-watered after the initial over-watering. Need to get a better feel for it. - 5+ Power Outages - Water Quality (Bad Tap to Cal-Mag'd Distilled to "Remineraliz-P"'d Distilled to Natural Spring) - Challenging environment to grow. Low insulation leading to wide environmental swings. Remineraliz-P is a commerical product to make aquarium water from distilled/RO water. Initial testing is showing great promise. Highly recommend to check it out.
