Week 3: TrolMaster Chronicles â Transplanting, Growing Strong, and Thriving in PRO-MIX HP đ±âš
Hey Grow Fam! Another exciting week has flown by in the grow room, and Iâm thrilled with the progress! We kicked off Week 3 with our first set of transplants. The Gorilla Melon was transplanted at the end of the week, while the Papaya Zoap is still patiently waiting for its turn to shine. Each plant thatâs been transplanted is now comfortably settled in 15-liter Autopots, filled with PRO-MIX HP BIOFUNGICIDE + MYCORRHIZAE, and wow, Iâm loving this mix!
đ± Why PRO-MIX HP is a Game-Changer
For those of you unfamiliar with PRO-MIX HP, letâs take a closer look. This soil provides superior drainage and aeration, thanks to its high porosity. The addition of fibrous peat moss and coarse perlite creates an ideal environment for water flexibility. Itâs been perfect for the girls as they transition into their final homes. Plus, the biofungicide and mycorrhizae are doing wonders for root development, giving them all the support they need for vigorous growth. The plants are showing off a beautiful, vibrant green, each with its own unique characteristicsâno two plants are the same, and I love that!
đĄïž Environment Update: Temps, RH, and More
Letâs talk about the conditions the girls are thriving in! Weâre sitting at:
⹠Temperature: 26.7°C
âą Relative Humidity: 62.9%
âą VPD: 1.30 (I know itâs a bit high, but theyâre handling it like champs)
âą CO2: 800 ppm
âą pH: 6.18
âą TDS: 215 ppm
⹠Solution Temperature: 23.2°C
To make things even more efficient, Iâve adjusted the light height, keeping the PPFD around 360 to 400 to save on energy. These beauties are still soaking in the light perfectly, and I couldnât be happier with how theyâre responding.
đ§ Watering and Feeding
At this stage, the plants are thriving with just enough nutrients to keep them happy. Iâve kept things simple with a balanced solution, ensuring everything stays within the perfect range. The PRO-MIX HP, with its mycorrhizal fungi, is really helping with nutrient uptake and boosting overall health. Itâs amazing to see how quickly theyâve adapted!
đ Transplants Complete â Progress Feels Incredible!
Iâm super excited with how everything is shaping up! Most of the transplants went smoothly, and the growth weâre seeing is just amazing. The Papaya Zoap is still waiting for its final move, but itâs growing strong, getting ready for the next step. Itâs an honor to work with these geneticsâtheyâre each unique, yet all thriving in their own way. đ±đ
đ Shoutouts and Whatâs Coming Next
I couldnât do this without the support of my amazing sponsors and all of you, Grow Fam! A huge shoutout to TrolMaster and Aptus Holland for their top-notch gear and nutrients, and of course, to all my followersâwhether youâve been here from the start or are new to the journey, thank you for the love and support! đđ

P.S. Letâs talk about these new Model One LED bars Iâm running. đżđĄ Theyâre not just any lightsâthese are full-spectrum beasts designed to give my plants exactly what they need at every stage of growth. The real magic, though? The dimming feature. With just a quick adjustment, I can dial down the intensity without sacrificing the quality of the light. This means Iâm saving on energy costs while still delivering top-tier PAR and maintaining a balanced spectrum. Itâs not just about blasting plants with light; itâs about giving them the right light at the right time. By fine-tuning the PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density), Iâm hitting that sweet spot where the plants thrive, and I donât have to run the LEDs at full power. So, while I save a bit on electricity, my plants still get the perfect environment to reach their full potential. đ±âš
This level of control lets me optimize the growth, and trust me, my plants are loving itâjust another reason Iâm thrilled with the Model One setup.
