Welcome to my Gorilla Melon🦍🍉 Diary. In this Diary: Seeds: Fast Buds (from contest)thanks Media: Pro~Mix HP *•ns I will again be using the Remo nutrients. Nutrients: Remo Supercharged Kit *•ns *•not sponsored ___________________________ Feeding: Little water just to keep things moist. ___________________________ Planted the seed on Tuesday 07-Jan-25 Pop up by Friday 10-Jan-25 Once big enough i will transplant it to a 7 gallon bucket. ___________________________ Thanks for stopping by, likes and comments are appreciated!👊🏻😎 Keep on growin! Keep on tokin!!! 😙💨💨💨💨💨

Buds starting to put on a little extra weight was having doubts with this strain as i stressed her out quite abit but she's pulling through should have a decent yield overall. Has developed a strong ZKITTLEZ smell.

I continued like normal with the feed expect for one day which I just put pH correct water in the tank as I saw I little nutrition burn on the leaf tips. The temperature was difficult to maintain so I added a fan adjuster so I could regulate it easier.

Two weeks!! Ladies looking great, no nutes needed so far... I've been watering every other day with nothing but voodoo juice, I might be giving them a couple weeks more before flipping them into 12/12!!

48 hrs. of dark are up and its time to chop. pots have dried from the last flush. These did not stretch as much as I would have liked I will have to adjust my light better next time and there was a lot of lower development near the media, hence not enough air flow. when I flushed the pots the water level went up to the lower growth on the Think different and the bottom was wet and rotted the bottom half. I did a mild lollypop on them I'm early flower it just was not enough, LESSON LEARNED. Chopped on 2/8/20 whole plant drying low and slow 54% RH 68F for 10-14 days then will trim and jar. 981 grams wet with the lumber. lets see how they dry. I got a rosin press coming today I will squeeze all the trim and larffy buds into dabs yummy! All in all I recommend these genetics I will try the think different again I'm sure I just got a recessive dwarf gene. I have seen other grows of this same strain same breeder that are huge and stacked. thanks again to Fast Buds 420 and Green Buzz Nutrients for suppling the goods for the grow. Stay tuned for the harvest pics and vids along with the rosin squish. Be cool to one another we could really use it these days.👏 please fell free to comment on the grow as this is my first true auto flower grow. If any one out there is experienced with rosin pressing and you have any tips for beginner's let me know I will incorporate them in the next videos. thanks

5/31 Week 10 and the state of the grow is winding up I know Baba looks like hell, her buds are in danger of breaking some of the branches so I have everything kind of falling in on itself supported by bamboo. Harvest Sally and Athena yesterday leaving only Jane Baba and Cleo (my wife's) in the tent so turning down the lights a bit they are getting plenty Water only not much to do till harvest 6/3 Just nothing going on, giving them water Baba seems done now little further hair growth or bulking, harvest in a day or so, real busy with other projects so no promises 6/4 Yield from Sally and Athena wet - 650 grams dry - 151 grams about 5 oz, so with Baba still left to harvest looks like we good for an holiday season grow of this strain next winter. Cannot believe how thick the trics are on these two and the one left is even more frosty. Baba harvest tomorrow not sure about the twin 6/5 Harvest day for Baba only Jane remains Baba wet - 533 grams Running totals so far : Wet - 1188 grams Dry - 151 grams (expect to double this) Looks like we almost matched our numbers on the first two plants as expected. Prob a good 10 ounces on the grow not great but a good grow none the less with 8 months of medicine so this strain is on the schedule for November. Harvest report on Jane harvest , may be a few days she still making bud

Growing at a good pace. Going to top the leaders at the 3rd node on day 28. Might wait a week for the others. Going to mainline my grow for the first time. I will wait to defoliate after they heal from being topped. I will update this week with more pictures after they are topped. Topped day 28. Defoliated day 30. Lst day 32?

Day 64. Watering with nutrient Mix. Day 67. Flushing with 10L water. Day 69. Watering with nutrient Mix.

I finally feel like we are getting some good vertical growth! And all cut spots have put on at least 2inches. So i flipped into flower this is day 1-0

During week 13 the BANANA KRUMBLE (=Banana Punch x OG-Kush) from GREENHOUSE SEEDS is developing FANTASTICALLY! The buds have a nice PURPLE coloration and are COVERED IN TRICHOMES! They shine like little stars when I go in at night and make a foto with the flash on...ITS AMAZING to see. All main- and sidebranches have developed into HUGE COLAS, which are full with DANK buds. The bud structure is very compact...I LOVE IT! 😍The topbuds are now so heavy that the plants lean into the two layers of nets I put in to support them. I am glad I installed the trellies already during veg., because now the plants need them. The nice dark green color of the leaves and the fat buds show that the plants are VERY healthy and therefore the BIOTABs nutrients and the spectrum and intensity of the SANlight LEDs work perfectly for growing cannabis. After all they were both especially designed to do exactly that...lol The two Q4W-Gen.2 fixtures on the sides are running at 100% (=3 green lights on dimmer ON) and the Q3WL-Gen.2 in the center is running at 80% (=two green light on the dimmer ON). All three lamps are hung at 40 cm distance to the top of the plants. I water the plants with PURE TAB-WATER, since the BIOTABS nutrients are self-regulating. There is no need for measuring the ph- and EC-value of the water, since you do not need to adjust it. Its VERY CONVENIENT and saves me a lot of time! The smell of the 8 plants is VERY STRONG now and the aroma is WONDERFUL! It is sweet and fruity with a 'gassy' undertone from the OG-Kush parent. Until now this round goes VERY WELL and I am very satisfied with quality of the genetics from Greenhouse Seeds. The plants grow exactly as the description in their catalogue states, and that is rare thing nowadays! 👍😎

One of the Lemon Cherrys is falling behind the other then that they look pretty good Date : 19.06.2024

Im at the flowering day 55 mark. These inzanes have been grown before and have been determined to have a 65 day finish. So im sitting at 10 days from take down on these girls.

Now here we go !!! This girl is just starting to take off, as for every gorilla glue lineage strain I have done , they really pack on weight at the very end . Just when you start to feel disappointed, it will explode. More notes to follow as I am just getting things posted up !!! *** My phone glitched out and added last week's photos, not a clue why but no stress, 💖. Y'all better get ready to see some special!!!

Day 60F The PM on the cheese has gotten significantly worse in the last few days. I think it may have something to do with the constant humidity spikes every time I water. I haven’t been running my humidifier at all in flower so maybe it’s having trouble keeping the RH up during lights on. Just another reason to follow a daily watering schedule. The cheese and slurricane look fucking disgusting and I’m starting to doubt that a peroxide wash can totally fix it. It worked well for my outdoor crop so it should be fine but this time there is probably 3x the amount. I’ll make sure to really soak the buds and rinse them off good. Bbb#1 is flopping over like crazy from the weight. Too late to stake it up now so hopefully it holds until next week. Starting to foxtail a bit but nothing too bad. It is now 100% done and ready for chop. Bbb#2 is just getting frostier and frostier by the day. The purple fade is really coming along nicely too. Might reveg. It is now 100% done and ready for harvest. Black garlic #1 is finally filling out! I can’t believe it. Never heard of a plant packing weight on like that in week 8. The breeder did mention that it packs on weight later but I’m stunned. Taking her to 9.5 weeks. Black garlic #2 is looking very average. Average color, average size buds, average frost, average smell, probably an average yield. And it’s starting to get a bit of PM. Overall not happy. Will be taking her to 9.5 weeks. Zkittlez #1 has pleasantly surprised me. It was a bushy runt in veg but came through. It’s the third frostiest in the tent, super dense, stacked tight, smells great and looks great. It’s already got a nice amount of amber so it’s 100% ready for chop. Slurricane #4 looks insanely frosty even under all that PM. If I can’t wash it off it’s going in the trash. I want to chop this asap but have to cut everything at once unfortunately. It’s 100% ready for harvest. Badazz OG cheese is looking like a decent yielder but doesn’t have much else going for it. I think it still has some filling out to do. I can’t even smell the final profile change yet. The leaves are rotting off very quickly. Taking her 9.5 weeks. I don’t mind harvesting a bit later rather than early. From my outdoor experience, when a plant is picked early it smells like hay and wet grass clippings until it’s been curing for 3 weeks. When I harvest late or at 30-50% amber trichomes it smells like same scent profile it had when growing. Just my experience. I’ve read that the tobacco industry adds calcium and potassium carbonate to their crops to help promote fire holding capacity and to increase the whiteness of ash. Turns out some of the organic amendments I bought last week contain exactly that. I’m going to give each plant a light top dress to see if the tobacco industry is onto something.

Hello I hope everybody is doing alright, this last week has been good ive been busy, Sorry for a few days late! I had to build some.shade out here for the ladies. Using a 50% shade cloth. I want to make sure this ladie can finish out. As its already been a long road!! Super thankful for these days! Loving the smell of the diamond Belle. Subtle but dank and sweet 😋

4 of my plants stopped growing after day 3. I flushed 2 of them because my runoff EC was 3.6. I want to see if flushing will help then I will flush other two plants. Please help me Last watering was on day 7 and flushing on 2 plants was on day 7 as well _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 27/01/2020 day 8: reviving started . light height was increased to 115 cm(45") Plant CCA1: Stunted Grow, didn't Flush Plant CCA2: Stunted Grow, didn't Flush Plant CCB1: Stunted Grow, in the Flushed soil Plant CCB2: Stunted Grow, in the Flushed soil Plant CCC1: slow grow, didn't Flush soil _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 9: Dome added on top of seedlings, and added more fans and air flowing throughout grow area. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 10: some minor development on CCB1, CCB2(those that i Flushed). CCC1 is growing a bit faster(this Plant didn't have any problem). Day 10: soil was dry on top for CCA1 and CCA2, so these two seedlings been watered with 6.0 PH and 0.3 EC. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 11: Plant CCA1 and CCA2 showing some signs. Plant CCB1 was the weakest one , therefore I removed it from big pot and transplanted it to a 1 Litre pot , so soil could dry faster and I am treating her with 0.5 ml Advanced Nutrient Piranha in 1L water with 6.1 PH and 0.3 EC. I will give her 100ml every day for 10 days. Plant CCB2: showing more signs of development than the rest. she is still in flushed soil and soil still drying up Plant CCC1: was the one which didn't have a stunned growth and will feed her for first time tomorrow. According to all advices I passed following steps: increasing light height, soil will dry up until tomorrow. I gonna start light feeding for some of them tomorrow and the rest other day. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 12: CCA1 and CCA2 was watered(6.0 PH and 0.3 EC) 0.5 Litre CCB1: transplanted one, she is being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB2: she been fed with 0.4L water mixed with Piranha CCC1: she had her 1.5 L low dose First time nutrient feeding(using 1/4 Strength of what recommended of Sensi Grow A&B,B52,Voodoo Juice,Piranha,Tarantula) with 5.9 PH and 0.5EC. I will update about her end of day 12 or beginning of day 13. she enjoying it from very first moment. I will update about different methods that I used for each of plants to revive them. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 13: I transplanted other two seedling(CCA1 and CCA2) to 1 Litre pot for treatment because I used @Vincent11 methods for CCB1 and his advice helped me quite fast. But I see some yellowish colour on new leaves. it may be a nitrogen deficiency as @Jinks101 stated before or transplant stress. CCA1: transplanted to 1 litre pot and using Piranha 0.5 ml in 1 L water and watering it with 100 ml per day same as i did for CCB1.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCA2: transplanted to 1 litre pot and using Piranha 0.5 ml in 1 L water and watering it with 100 ml per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB1: I see some yellowish colour on new leaves. it may be a nitrogen deficiency or transplant stress, she is still being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB2: she had her 1.5 L low dose First time nutrient feeding(using 1/4 Strength of what recommended of Sensi Grow A&B,B52,Voodoo Juice,Piranha,Tarantula) with 5.9 PH and 0.5EC. but there is some white line in the middle of leaves. CCC1: I uploaded a photo so we can compare her before and after first feeding on day 12 and after feeding in day 13. but there is some white line in the middle of leaves like CCB2. she will have her first watering with 10% run off in a day or two. I will use water-feed technique. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Day 14: Its last day of the week and listening to everyone advices helped me to recover my plants. increasing light height ,decreasing room humidity, adding dome, adding more air circulation, transplanting weakest seedling to 1L pot and treating them with 100ml(0/5ml Piranha+1L water),deceasing watering ph to 6.0, transplanted seedling soil mixed with some peat moss so i could decrease soil ph from 7.8 to 7.2, letting soil dry. CCA1: she is being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCA2: she is being treated with 100 ml containing 0.5ml Piranha mixed with 1 litre water per day.(5.9 PH-0.3EC) CCB1: she had her 100 ml low dose First time nutrient feeding(using 1/4 Strength of what recommended of Sensi Grow A&B,B52,Voodoo Juice,Piranha,Tarantula) with 5.9 PH and 0.5EC. she improved a lot, I am quite happy that i saved her because she was the weakest one. CCB2: She was fed yesterday, so she was enjoying all her day. CCC1: she had her proper 3L water(5.9PH,0.3 EC) feed with 20% run off( runoff PH is still high for this plant) Wrapping up this week i uploaded pictures of each plant comparing it with day 8 when reviving started. Thanks everyone for following this diary.
