Really stoked with the outcome of this grow, I was aiming for a good 60g, so i outdid myself some bit. On to the next one!

The girls are ready soon! Leaves of the Royal Gorilla are completely yellow, don't know why but I think it's because it's time to harvest. Take a look at the trichomes, I'm waiting for a few more amber ones. How many days should I let them live? (I have to harvest them all at once) ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▌My setup: ▌Growbox: Secret Jardin Hydro Shoot 80 ▌Lights: Selfmade 184W LED Panel w/ Samsung Q-Series Strips ▌Ventilation: Ventilution Mixed In-Line 145/187m³/h ▌Fan: Taifun FT-18 oscillating fan ▌Heating fan: Trotec TFC 1 E ▌Substrate: 50% BioBizz All-Mix & 50% Perlite (& BioTabs Starterbox) ▌Nutrients: BioTabs Starterbox & tapwater ▌Irrigation: AutoPot 4Pot System ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄

It’s-a-growing... Not too stoked on how quick the top layer of soil is drying out with the hot weather. Definitely see a decrease in predator mite activity on the surface... hopefully they’re still busy down below. I added straw to help keep the upper layer from drying out... This decrease in beneficial bug activity could also be from switching to tap water... I did some rain water from my barrel to begin with, but got scared of pathogens because I know crows take lunch breaks on my roof and their scraps definitely means rodents coming in to clean up 😩 The tap water has no chloramide in it, so that’s a good thing. Hopefully my tiny air pump and stones bubbling a 5 gallon bucket for 24 hours gets rid of enough chlorine to keep the micro biological ecosytem in balance 🙏

Just waiting patiently for her to show up! Happy growing everyone Blessings and thanks for your support

We have reached Day 70 and she is still going very strong. Her smell has mellowed out from stinky feet/ rotting meat to a more cannabis like smell haha. I think the flush is helping get rid of some of that chlorophyll. She'll be flushed for the remainder of her life, should be getting a hint of some colors next week.

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel → added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring — no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) ≈ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone — looks alive and active. 🍋 Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. 📦 Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water → pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green — roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. 💧 Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water ≈ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g → N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml → P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp → Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml → Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced. I’ll let this version run for a week before adding anything. 👀👀👀👀👀👀 Observations and changes 👀👀👀👀👀👀 27.10.25 VW27 noticed some min burnt tips so I decreased Calcium Nitrate 45 to → 40g, decided to add two more elements micros and Epsom salts just to make sure they got everything, Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g, Epsom salts: 8 g 28.10.25 VW27 she seems devoid of any deficiencies, seems ready for the flip to 12/12 02.11.25 VW27 girl is looking good so I decided to stop making daily videos and do a standard once a week update. 09.11.25 aVW28 7 days since flip,stretch in full swing, first pistils showing, leaf color deep and healthy. Slight tip burn early week → gone after pH stabilized. Feed stayed clear, no residue, roots clean and sweet-smelling, did what I hope is a last cleanup and pruning🎥 10.11.25 VW29 added Phosphoric acid pH down to the schedule for flowering stage. 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 🌿Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 09.11.25 VW28 -- Fed 5l of #1→ no runoff 10.11.25 VW29 – Fed 5l of FERMAKOR PK → 2l runoff 11.11.25 VW29 – Fed 5l of FERMAKOR PK → 2l runoff 12.11.25 VW29 – Fed 5l of FERMAKOR PK → 2l runoff 13.11.25 VW29 – Fed 5l of FERMAKOR PK → 2l runoff 14.11.25 VW29 – Fed 5l of FERMAKOR PK → 2l runoff 15.11.25 VW29 – no feed no water 16.11.25 VW29 – no feed no water 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 Nutrients in 30 L #1 Veg — FERMAKOR 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 Calcium Nitrate (Calcinit / Nitcal): 45 → 40 g = 1.33 g/L → 207 ppm N + 253 ppm Ca 🍶 PK Concentrate (FERMAKOR Base): 30 → 40 ml = 1.00 → 1.33 ml/L → balanced 1:1 P:K + light micros (from extract) 💧 Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Fish + Veg): 30 ml = 1.00 ml/L 🍶 Epsom Salt (MgSO₄·7H₂O): 8 g = 0.27 g/L → 26 ppm Mg + 35 ppm S 💧 Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g = 0.017 g/L → Fe 0.7 ppm • Mn 0.7 ppm • Zn 0.3 ppm • Cu 0.3 ppm • B 0.1 ppm • Mo 0.02 ppm 🍶Phosphoric Acid (pH down) + Citric Acid (chelation): as needed → First set pH with phosphoric acid, then add a little citric only if you want extra chelation 💧 Target pH: 5.8 – 6.0 (drop test yellow-green) 📦 TOTAL: 60 → 70 ml / 48.5 g inputs per 30 L = 2.00 → 2.33 ml/L + 1.62 g/L YouTube Link: https://youtube.com/-m8h?si=A7x4Zlr2kj-_ga31

New week starts. ___________ 🌞24.05 Watered with 80% GHE nutrients and healing. Photos are dark cos it's night. 🌞25.05 Healing goes good, flowers are multiplying themselves on three plants out of four. I think it's success. 🌞26.05 Plants branches are rising in thickness, flowers of 'HB' and 'RG'#2 gets a second floor. plants standing at the edges of the box have a smaller thickness of branches. I think this is due to the lack of light in these places. There is one more difference between them and those ones stands in a middle: they weren't broken (HST). Also, the branches of these plants located directly under the fan have a shorter height. I see N overdose on 'RG'#2 plant, its leaves has 'claws' on the tips. I'll water all four with water+PK complex next time (for two days) and will give them nutrients time after time from now. A soil is wet still, so it's no watering today. 🌞27.05 Nothing for today. 🌞28.05 The soil is wet still. I'm waiting for tomorrow. 🌞29.05 Watering; PK complex with a 'Bloom' booster. No Nitrogen this time. 🌞30.05 It's OK. Flowering goes right. ______________ Week ends.

Last week before flushing🌈

Nothing but colas on all 3 this is going to be a big harvest. Another 2 or 3 weeks max.

*Transplanted into 3 Gallon fabric pots using Happyfrog. *Tested soil PH reading of 6.1 added 1tsp of lime. *Feed Plants 1-6 with Advance Nutrients and Humic Acid PH Seemed to be 7.1 *Feed 7-11 with 20-20-20, Humic Acid, and Blueplanet CalMag. PH was 6.5 *All put under Spider Farmer SF 4000 at 26-28 inch 35%. Will lower everyday. *Lets see how many females we get.

The Plants are vigorous and the growth is currently slow but steady. I’ll up my light power and give them a good watering to hopefully push them on.

Couldn't be happier with how this Cap Junky is turning out - super citrus terps.

This update is dedicated to @greenmachine. Slurricane blast with Butane. Dimonds and sauce. Is there anything more to say? It came out BEAUTIFUL. 🔥💎🔥💎🔥💎😁

D4 Was on holidays for 6 days she looks a bit yellowish overall, i hope it’s just a bit underwatering, because of the autowatering which i put a bit lower to make sure they are not overwatered. Hope she will be fine put some water today and will do so up to it feels heavy enough without draining it. 🤞 D5 watching her carefully.. a bit yellowish and red leave borders not quite sure what the problem is or if it’s just because she has only 3-4 weeks to go? let’s see.. D7 The week is over ✌️did some fertilizer and a bit more water today i feel it’s going to be alright even with the super light green status.
