I have now done 4 crops of Royal Gorilla, 80 different seeds and I’ve had so many problems with them it’s not even funny.
I’ve never come across any strain in the last 15 years that is as fickle and prone to herm and mould, as the Royal Gorilla.
Herm problems are real with this strain. Your chances of not getting a herm are about 1/20 (given my variables and averages)
They take training well as far as form goes, but then they love to freak out and herm on you when you go to flip.
Mould problems are also difficult with this strain. If you manage to find one that doesn’t herm out on you , chances are it would start to mould.
Out of the 80 seeds I have tried , I have ONE that is decent, stable, and been cloned.
There may have been a few others the last few runs , but it’s hard to say.
These plants need a cool environment, and be very careful when giving any sort of training , especially HST. Very unstable plant but very potent when you get a good one.
