Magic Melon Clone

This week i planted the clone in a soil mixed with compost. I watered the plant and started a 40 hour light 8 hours of dark veg cycle.

This week I kept the leading schedule 40 hours of light 8 hours of darkness. I made a nutrient spray to spray the leaves and that worked well turning the leaves a darker shade of green and the plant had significant growth afterwards. I watered the plant once this week and saw 1 inch of growth. Starting to see roots growing out the bottom of the plant.

This week i changed the light schedule to 12 hours light and 12 hours dark. The plant grew an additional 5 inches. Watered the plant twice this week and sprayed the plant with nutrient spray.

This week started to see the pistols and the beginning stage of the flowering. Grew an additional 3-4 inches. Watered the plant twice. Looks very healthy. I did water with nutrient water. I did cut of one branch to try and experiment with cloning so the plant is missing one branch.

This week the magic melon started to give off a melon citrus scent. There are several flowers forming and some of the leaves on the bottom of the plant have turned yellow. The plant grew 1 inch.

This week i i found that hundreds of fungus gnats had hatched that were hiding in one of the soils i purchased. So i had a big problem with the gnats leaving larvae on the leaves. So i had tp prematurely defoliate some areas of the plants. I made my own fungus gnat trapper that has been working great. The plant grew an additional 1 inch and the flowering doubled in size. Did not water the plants this week.

This week i didn’t water the plant to try and slow the fungus gnat problem. I defoliated the plant more. And saw and increase in the size of the buds.

Added heater to the room looks like this plant is almost ready for harvest.

Turned on the heater and the grow room reached 100 degrees i needed to lower the humidity. I didn’t water the plants this week.

Almost ready to harvest i think maybe one more week. Some of the gnats got stuck on the resin so i will have to pick those out soon
