Gorilla Melon

Poor thing had a rough start but came back strong. Funny that at the beginning of flowering i could smell the diesel aroma but then the sweetness of fruits took over. Took the wet weight with the whole plant which was 810g Friday 02-May25. Got her hanging in the grow tent with one fan on low speed along with a humidifier set at 58 %RH with my INKBIRD device and the MarsHydro exhaust fan at the very lowest possible level.

Be questa ragazza è uscita bella anche lei, ottime cime dure come sassi e una buona quantità di resina, le cime un po piccoline rispetto alla sorella papaya, ma cmq un ottima genetica e posso dire che fastbuds ci sa fare veramente con queste nuove fotoperiodiche!

Las Gorilla Melón son una variedad que aparte de ser fácil de cultivar tiene una flores que son bien prietas, densas y muy pegajosas, bastante resinosas. Los sabores que se remarcan para Mi gusto son dulce y terrosa con toques tropicales. Y la pegada es bastante dura cerebral, muy física. Son bastante resistentes, para mi gusto bastante buenas, a mi sabores así tan exóticos, me encantan, si os gusta el tema Cali, es una gran elección, de mis favoritas, os lo garantizo.

It definitely didn't have an easy time with me. Nevertheless, it remained stable throughout. Unfortunately, seeds formed shortly before harvest.

Strain Harvest Report: Gorilla Melon The Journey to Harvest Gorilla Melon displayed her unique personality and structure throughout the cycle, making her a standout. She was harvested in two stages: Day 56 and Day 63 of flower. The first half was taken early due to some mold-affected buds, ensuring the rest of the plant remained healthy and had the opportunity to further develop its potential. This staggered approach allowed us to experiment with maturity levels while managing challenges. The Day 56 harvest yielded bulky, resin-rich colas, while the remaining half, harvested on Day 63, displayed even more density and terpene development. Structure and Beauty From her early days, Gorilla Melon grew with strength and grace, forming compact, dense buds coated in trichomes. Despite the challenges posed by mold, the plant’s overall health and resilience were a testament to the environment and techniques used in this cycle. The defoliation efforts and excellent airflow contributed significantly to minimizing the spread of mold, ensuring the harvest remained predominantly unaffected. Drying and Curing After careful inspection and harvesting, the buds spent 12 days drying in optimal conditions. The process highlighted their density and frostiness, revealing red undertones beneath a blanket of trichomes. Once trimmed, the buds were cured to bring out the strain’s full potential, locking in its flavors and potency. Key Harvest Stats: • Harvest Stages: Day 56 & Day 63 of flower • Drying Period: 12 days • Post-Trim Appearance: Dense, frosty buds with hints of red hues • Rating: 8.6/10 (Smoke report to follow in a future post) Final Thoughts Gorilla Melon is a showstopper. While the smoke report is pending, her cultivation journey highlights why she’s a favorite. Resilience, beauty, and stellar performance under the ThinkGrow LED and TrolMaster systems make her a memorable strain in this grow. Stay tuned for the final verdict!

Smells Like gasy fruites, the buds are super sticky!

Nice smell of citrus and poison green buds,the Gorilla Melon is a nice strain for every one who wants big flowers with big green colas.

The smoke on these without a cure is excellent. When breaking up these beautiful buds first thing you notice is that up front gorilla glue smell. On the backend you get that watermelon sweet smell. The inhale without lighting is very strong gg/melon taste. When lit the first pull you can really taste the watermelon in it . On the first hit you get a heavy indica affect in the body. A relaxed heaviness followed by a relaxing mellow buzz. No paranoia just a real nice relaxed feeling. Three hits is all you need. If you keep smoking it will knock you out. This is definitely potent smoke. Think twice if you have a big day planned and want to chief heavy on this one. You will stay right where you are.
