It's drinking a lot of water, obviously because of its huge size, smaller doses of nutrients to go little by little, the shape of the tall buds, they're much more resinous with this update, I'm hoping for more time with this one due to its size and little light.

Week 12 (17-4 to 23-4) 17-4 Temperature: 23.1 degrees (lights on) 19,1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 50% (lowest) 18-4 Temperature: 22.5 degrees (lights on) 17.9 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 61% (highest) 52% (lowest) Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 19-4 Temperature: 22.5 degrees (lights on) 18.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 54% (lowest) No pictures. 20-4 Temperature: 24.1 degrees (lights on) 19.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 54% (lowest) Light increased from 50% to 60% strength. I also made a new 10L feed, and added it to the reservoir, there was still 2850 ml in the reservoir, so i can calculate how much they get per watering. Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 21-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 19.3 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 66% (highest) 54% (lowest) No pictures. 22-4 Temperature: 23.7 degrees (lights on) 19.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 42% (lowest) Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 23-4 Temperature: 23.6 degrees (lights on) 17.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 50% (lowest)

Smells are really starting to come out. Some slight burn on the sour diesel, that's with a 500ppm nutrient solution. Attached a video so you can see the buds much better

I feel like I really identify with this strain. This is only the second one I've grown but I can read her well. If you think you've got a green pheno, try dropping your nitrogen and your temps to trigger her genetics (epigenetics) to influence her phenotype. This girl is almost done. She's right on schedule. Her trichomes are about 90% cloudy. I'll let her hit up to 20% oxidized. She's fattening up nicely. Her bud structure is much different than the first Blackberry, she's much more solid/ dense.

***New Addition*** Day 82 - Big tank change out. Had a massive drop in pH while EC rose some again (Only been adding RO water the last few days to keep tank in check around EC1.2-1.3, had jumped to 1.6. PH Drop was from 5.9-6 to 4.9-5.0 from it being stable for 4-5 days). After epsom salting the leaves last week, still noticing some lower leaves "Praying" and some dead and drying ones hanging from the plant. Its getting to about the mid-way point of the plant now (again, all that's under the scrog but...) but getting too close for comfort!!! Have edited my formula slightly for this change out to: *2ml/L Bloom A & B (So 100ml of each in a 50L tank) *1ml/L Silicon *0.6g/L Epsom Salts *1ml/L 9/18 PK Warrior (This was a f**k up, should have been 0.5ml/L - hopefully doesn't impact or isn't the cause for Mg issues - causing a lockout) 2ml/L Sumo Active Boost 2ml/L Fulvic Acid 2ml/L Sensizym 2ml pH Down to bring the lot to pH 5.7-5.8 This brought me to about 1.6EC, pH6.4 (Expected value was 1.521 from Hydrobuddy Calc for the * ingredients - My water bases at 0.2EC so a close enough calc!!!) - Higher than I have been putting in but i think most of the EC rise is from the Sulfate in the Epsom Salts (The Sulfur alone is about 0.32EC). Also, with it coming late autumn and the tent in an outdoor cabin, got a temp controller to bring on a heater to stop the temp dropping below 16.5C...its now averaging out around 18.7 during the night so that's decent enough (Was potentially getting sub 15C - recent day temps have been 9-11C so could have been pretty chilly in there!!!). Also put my aquarium heater in the tank to bring the solution to around 19C as 1 of the plants has grew an absolute root mass into the tank itself - It is defying the Smart Pots and getting itself into there even after a pruning a few weeks back!!! So, tank change happened a few days early but what the hey...passed the time with a hot whiskey or 5!!! :P ******************************************** Day 78 - Really haven't done anything with the girls the last week. Just been topping up with pH adjusted water, bringing down the nute strength a bit as they're taking on water but not really taking on any nutes. General monitoring. Think I am going to have to get a heater out in the cabin as the night (IRL Day temps) are getting 15C and below so worried that could be impacting some nute uptake - Gave them an epsom foliar last night and then the bi-weekly Geisha foliar spray just before lights out this morning. Apart from that, nothing new. Happy growing all.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Gorilla Melon de FastBuds. Por dónde empezar, las flores son bien compactas y van repletas de resina son muy pegajosas, tienen tonos verdes bonitos, y tiene unos aromas dulces y exóticos bastante marcados con toques terrosos. Es muy sencilla de cultivar, es de ciclo de 2 meses y medio, pero bien agradecida, tiene buenos satélites, de las que plante de fastbuds, podría decir que mi favorita hasta el momento. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

1st WddngCake is under a SpiderFarmer SF 1000D 100W but an older model. The 2nd WddngCake is under a MarsHydro FC-E1500 LED 150W. They also receive on the sides UV (total per day 2 and 1/2 h ) exposure and IR (total per day 2h) From a Secret Jardin Cosmorrow UV 40W and one Secret Jardin Cosmorrow IR 40 W. UV 1h in the morning starting with main light, 1h in the afternoon and 1/2 h just before the main light goes off. IR 1/2 h in the morning before any lights even start then letting it another 1/2 h with all the other lights.Total 1h IR 1/2 in the evening right before all the lights go out and let it smooth out 1/2 alone without the other lights. Total 1h 1/13/25 The girls are starting the week ok. 1/14/25 1st WddngCake, She is older, is happier after the flush, still has a little bit of alkaline soil but i don't want to stress her out to much. Gave her a little BioBizz CalMag aprox 3,5 ml ; TopMax 5ml and 5 ml BioBlom . All mixed in 3,3 l PHed Water at PH 5.0 ppm 290. Runoff PH 6,8 :( ppm 1100. Also took like a handful of inter buds leafs :D . I think she will be ok. Seeing signs of buds fattening, new pistils. Frosty :D 2nd WddngCake Is very strong starting to fatten up the buds because she is younger and just now entering that stage. Like I already said her smell still resembles a tropical sweet creamy hoppy IPA. I think she is good, no major problems. Gave her 3,3 l of PHed water. Also mixed in CalMag 2,6 ml; 4 ml TopMax and 5 ml BioBloom. PH 5,4 ppm 207. Runoff PH 6,08 and ppm 302. I think is a good sign that i flushed a lot of nutrients from the soil and she also used a lot of them. Should keep and eye on that. Took 5 inter buds leafs off. 1/15/25 They are doing ok, both are fattening their buds and coming around good. The 2nd WddngCake better then the 1st one because I didn't make so many mistakes with her 😬 The tent is smelling great the Temp is at 23 C at night 20 C and RH at 50% (+- 3%) . 1st WddngCake stand at 47 cm and the 2nd WddngCake at 74 cm at their highest. New Photos! 😍😃 1/17/25 Back with some updates. The girls are doing wonderful. Shades of pinkish darkish greenish on both. The 1st Wddng Cake Auto, is older and showing this colors also on the very small sugar leafs. Gave her 4,2 l of PHed water, going in PH 5,6 and ppm 95. The Runoff is at PH 6,4 ppm 205 and I feel like now she is a little bit happier. Soil PH at 7,3 but not measuring precisely have a cheap tho rod measure stabby thing. The 2nd Wddng Cake Auto is younger, starting to forming her full flowers, bursting with mass . She also displays the colors mentioned above on the leafs closer to the main buds and also here and there on other sugar leafs. Gave her 4,2 l PHed water , going in PH 5,4 ppm 110. Runoff at PH 6,5 ppm 195 . Her soil PH is also at PH 7,3 kinda of. :)) I can see she is happier. I think is because i didn't make mistakes at the start. I also had 2 other Autos that aren't on here. But none of them grew like this one. Until now :)). Also took from both some leafs here and there. I think like a hand full total. Half a handful a plant. :D In the new photos you can see the "between the fingers roll" 😁 like i call it. That I only do twice in the life of an Auto, not to stress her to much.😨 Temp in the tent at 24 C when day +-2 C. At night time 21 C +- 1 C . Rh 50% +- 3% all of the time. Ventilators on for wind, and the grow must go on 👽🙌 1/18/25 So just 1 day until end of the week. I just got a Microscope. Very good actually recommend Andonstar AD203 Portable, 4' Screen also metal holder. A microSD Card 32Gb is also included and the data cable. Has a battery. Handels good. for the money i am surprised 😍. 1st Wddng Cake Took some pictures of the thricomes and I see a lot of milky one, some clear ones too. No amber ones. I think the harvest window is open but , I don't have time to harvest now. I also prefer also to let it a few days. Also must see for an extra tent to do 2 "days" of darkness.😥 2nd Wddng Cake is doing good, starting to fade in nuances of pink dark green just on the leafs of the top. and just a little bit of yellow.😢 But tomorrow she will get another feed to push her further the 2 weeks or so she has got to go😍 Seems i forgot to set the clock of the Microscope:))), i just went to town because it was half battery full :)))). Also Pictures from under the Microscope 😍😁 1/19/25 Sooo end of week. I think we are fine. All the things that should be happening are happening :)). Sorry i messed up the timelines. But the older one smaller one will be 10 weeks old in 2 days. And the younger one is gonna be 9 weeks in 3 days. Or something like that. Chaotic start like i said :)). 1st Wedding Cake Auto is starting to open her harvest window. Very much thanks to all that answered my grow question. She got 4,9 l of water PH 5,4 ppm 92; Soil Ph aprox 7; Runoff PH 6,6 ppm 305. I will keep an eye on her because she will be done in like about a week or maybe 2. Must see how next week goes. Continue to give PH water no nutes 😁 She is aprox 10 weeks old. 2nd Wedding Cake Auto changed color more on the leafs. Purple dark green. Some little bit of yellow. But today i feed her. She got 4,2 l water with CalMAg 3,5 ; Activera 5 ml ; Algamic 5 ml; Bio Heaven 5 ml; BioBloom 5ml; TopMax 6ml. Going in PH 5,7 ppm 315; Soil aprox PH 7; Runoff PH 6,9😢 ppm 610. She is younger then her sister so i think 3 - 4 weeks. We will see. 😆 New pics 😁

Completed a 2 week flush, I had almost complete orange pistols, trichomes about 90% milky, little amber here and there. Actually stayed harvesting about midnight and finished up about 5am Xmas morning!!!!!!! I’m buying a scale tomorrow and recording the wet/dry weight to complete this diary. I’ll send y’all again in a couple weeks for a smoke report. Merry Xmas y’all, stay safe!!!!!

For my first trial run with Grand Cru Genetics, I’m definitely impressed. This strain shows great potential for flavor lovers and will be interesting to run again in the future. With a little more care and training, she could have achieved more, but she stood in the far corner of the tent and was difficult to reach. Drying takes place in our Dryomat; delivery of the Dryrocket has been delayed. According to my information, it will not arrive until October...perfect for winter growing. Photos are wet buds. Once they are dry, the smoke report will follow!!! See you again in 2-3 weeks 😇😇
