Flowering Stage

Flowering Stage 

(8-9 weeks on average – first 4 weeks are dedicated to vertical and body growth, the last 4-5 weeks are dedicated to production of fruiting and flowering sites and include the last 7-14 days being dedicated to pre harvest stage aka flush)

Optimal Lighting:  12 hour on/12 hour off

“Red” or “Warm” spectrum Light if available

(or) CFL Florescent – “Red” or “Warm” Spectrum

(And then) Kind LED Grow Light

Optimal Watering: 15 min. / every 4-6 hours -or-  4-6 times per day

Replace Water in System then add following nutrients:

Add Flower Stage Nutrients: 

Replace the water that you were using for the vegetative state with the following water. 

 

Test and Adjust PH Levels (PPM 1300-1500)

We no longer use “Technaflora” brand nutrients.  We use Lotus nutrients at a maximum of 1350 ppm’s as it calls for on our feed chart. https://lotusnutrients.com/pages/easy-guide-and-recommended-hydroponic-feeding-schedule

They have A-F. We simplify all of the other brand’s vast amount of parts (A-F for example) to being simply:  Grow, Boost and Bloom with our “additives” of Cal/Mag and Carbo-Flush. 

This is a good time and stage to incorporate trellising and look for male plants.

  • Trellising controls upward growth and exposes more of the plant to light to facilitate production sites
  • Male plants tend to be taller/leggier, produce 2-3 weeks earlier than females. To discard, cut plant at base, gently remove from the grow site, and dispose of in an area far away from the grow site.

Change water every 1-2 weeks and refresh Nutrients (Your plants will be consuming about a gallon of water a day)

If you need to top off water levels, only add nutrient rich PH balanced water 

Around the end of week 7 move to Pre-Harvest Stage

Gorilla Grow Tent is positioned as a premium choice for indoor cultivation customers who prioritize long-term durability and maximum environmental control. The brand’s core value proposition centers on rugged build quality, highly reflective interior materials, and thoughtful usability details such as access points and ducting ports. A particularly compelling differentiator is the height extension capability, which allows growers to increase vertical space for larger plants and more advanced training setups. This “expandable ceiling” concept supports a clear premium narrative: one tent that can adapt as the grower’s skill level and canopy management needs evolve.

From a performance standpoint, Gorilla’s reflective interior is designed to help distribute light more evenly across the grow area, which can be especially attractive for LED users seeking consistent canopy coverage and fewer dead zones. Durability is another major purchase driver in this category, and Gorilla’s market perception is strongly tied to heavy-duty fabric and a robust frame construction aimed at long service life. For buyers who want the Gorilla experience at a lower entry price, the Lite Line series offers a more budget-friendly path while preserving the brand’s emphasis on practical design and indoor grow reliability.

A strong campaign concept for a four-week push is “Grow Taller, Harvest Smarter,” built around the idea that vertical flexibility directly translates into better training options, improved airflow management, and more efficient use of the grow footprint. The offer structure can be designed as a bundle-pairing the tent with an extension kit-supported by a limited-time incentive such as free shipping, a modest discount, or an added-value “starter add-on” option. The messaging should connect premium features to outcomes: expanded height enables more versatile trellising and plant training, the reflective interior supports better light utilization, and the heavy-duty build reduces the risk of replacement costs over time. Social proof can be layered into the offer with short testimonial snippets and before/after setup visuals that make the quality difference immediately legible.

The marketing strategy should be a hybrid of conversion-led performance and credibility-building content. On the conversion side, dedicated landing pages organized by popular dimensions (such as 4x4, 5x5, and larger formats) can capture high-intent search demand while making it easier for customers to self-select the right size. A clear comparison flow between the flagship line and Lite Line helps address price objections without diluting the premium story. Short-form video should do the heavy lifting for awareness and consideration, using rapid setup footage and a quick demonstration of the height extension to create an immediate hook in the first seconds. Search campaigns can target bottom-funnel keywords around size, durability, and “heavy-duty” intent, while retargeting reinforces the differentiators for visitors who browsed but did not purchase.

Finally, lifecycle marketing should focus on retention and upsell. A cart-abandon email sequence can progress from feature education to social proof to a time-bound incentive, while post-purchase automation can deliver a professional setup checklist and recommendations for complementary ventilation and environmental accessories. To compound trust, a user-generated content initiative-such as a monthly “Setup Showcase”-encourages customers to share their grow-room layouts and results, creating a steady stream of authentic assets that reduce friction for future buyers and strengthen brand authority.
