RGS Royal Gorilla Auto--1st Grow!

Fan in, bigger fan leaves out. There was an immediate drop of nearly 10% RH, but we’ll see how it takes. Hope I didn’t stunt her, but I was pretty careful.

Well, if the pruning hurt her, she’s not showing it. And the RH has come down 10% to the mid-40s. Looking good for now!

Things are still looking good, but the RH change is not all I cracked it up to be. Here’s my question: a hygrometer at the bottom of the grobo, under the canopy, registers around 55% humidity, while the one 3/4 of the say up the grobo, well above the plant, registers 40% (I reversed the two instruments to check that the issue was placement, not instrument fault)–which one of these is more ‘accurate’? As I get into flower (as is starting to happen), should I be worried about the 55, or feel comfortable with the 40? Thanks!

Thanks @SilverGrobo . Outside the box and the one above the plant both read 40, so I’m going to assume that’s OK. Will be watching closely though!

Going through the big stretch and shooting upwards. Looking really good now. Considering taking more fan leaves off, but hesitant to mess with what is now consistent and impressive growth. Any thoughts?

Clean her up a bit. Nothing major but open up bud sites to light

Thanks @Todd.grobo. Can I take the ones I’ve circled below, even though their stems are right up against a bud site?

Getting there now. All looking nice and healthy, stretching is over (i think), and the bud sites are starting to fill out nicely!

I got a dehumidifier and am trying to keep my RH at 35-45%.

Every fan leaf with a stem longer than an inch should get removed to bulk up your buds.

Thanks! Will do!

OK, gave it a pretty solid haircut. Hope it wasn’t too much, but I think it’s OK. Followed your advice–all fan leaves with stems more than 1" long. I also took one or two shoots off the bottom that weren’t looking too strong. Fingers crossed for the home stretch. According to the recipe I should be around 3 weeks away or slightly less.

Much better lets see how she stretches now!

Still looking good–seeing first trichomes!

Definitely in the home stretch now. Trichomes still developing (and look fully clear, from what I can tell). Flush theoretically starts Monday, according to schedule, but my drain and fill is supposed to be tomorrow. Should I do normal drain and fill tomorrow and then again Monday? Should I just ride out with my current water till Monday? Should I extend flower a bit? So many questions!!

Beauty plant bro.
When your white pistols are well white its not ready. Likely 2 to 4 weeks total. She is stacking well. Whatever your doing dont change it
Those white pistols when there more than half are orange youll start wanting to check the trichomes.
Definitely add a few weeks and keep posting photos your in the final stretch

Thanks! I kind of figured something around 2 weeks, but will stay focused on the trichomes. Will extend for a week now and keep checking as I go!

A little slower going than I expected. But looking good.
