As you can see I chopped both Gorilla Cookies. The humidity in the tent got a bit too high and I didn’t want to provoke mold. So I decided to chop and trichomes were looking good. I absolutely love their smell. Especially freshly after chop it smells like chocolate cookies. I will update with final results once both are dried and cured. The Mango smile does now have enough space and light to ripen and produce some nice buds. The smell was first really like mango but over the last week it changed more into a bit more cheesy direction. I’ve got some problems with lightburn / bleaching on the upper growth as she got too tall and I cant move the lights further up. But so far nothing too bad I guess. Despite that she is looking great and I can‘t wait to see how she will look like in a few weeks.

Placing a dehumidifier or humidifier in the grow box turned out to be ineffective when both devices have their own automated settings. For instance, a humidifier set to 55% humidity works within a ±5% range, meaning it waits until the humidity drops below 50% to turn on and runs until it hits 60%. Since its sensor refreshes every 30 seconds, it might show 54% one moment and jump to 61% the next—not exactly stable at 55%. The dehumidifier behaves similarly. To achieve more consistent results, it’s better to rely on a hygrometer inside the grow box and use “dumb” devices that simply turn on when powered. Connecting these devices to smart outlets provides more precise control. For manual control, I maintained around 55% humidity by turning the humidifier and exhaust fan on and off via phone. Most moisture and aroma are released during the first three days, then taper off. The common rule of “when thin branches snap, it’s dry” led me to overdry my buds. A more reliable method is to monitor the hygrometer. When humidity stabilizes after the initial rise, wait one more day and then jar the buds. Rehydrating Overdried Buds: Overdried buds can be revived with a small piece of mandarin (or orange) peel, about 2.5x2.5 cm. Thoroughly wash the peel (even sanitize it if needed), cut a square, and place it on top of the buds in the jar. In my experience, this brought the humidity from 46% to 62% within 4 hours. Afterward, burp the jars for 15 minutes and monitor the hygrometer. If the humidity drops below 55%, return the peel for a few more hours. Once stable at 60-62%, remove the peel and continue curing, burping the jars twice daily for 15 minutes. As for humidity packs like Integra Boost or Boveda, I used them because I had some lying around. These packs are designed for 12 grams of product, so they don’t make a big difference in larger jars. If you burp jars daily and gently rotate the buds, they’re not really necessary. Trimming and Results: After 7 days of drying, I decided to trim dry this time. It turned out to be somewhat more convenient—everything gets covered in resin anyway, but the remaining leaves easily fall off, speeding up the process. I went for a tight trim, removing as much as possible. During the process, I felt disappointed seeing how little remained on the branches. The buds turned out airy and small, and I started cursing American genetics halfway through the trim. However, when it came to weighing, the results were surprisingly decent. Considering the buds' poor appearance, they’re not going to impress anyone visually, so it might have been easier to shred everything and use it for extraction. I don’t have extraction equipment, so I’ll make cannabutter from the trim, and the buds can rest in jars for now. Takeaways: Use a proper hygrometer for humidity control, not built-in sensors on humidifiers or dehumidifiers. Overdried buds can be easily rehydrated with citrus peel. Daily burping and rotation are sufficient for curing without humidity packs. Dry trimming can be faster and more convenient but may highlight issues with bud density. Despite underwhelming appearance, high resin content makes the strain great for extraction.

This week the weather is better. The buds are getting fat and she is developing well. Terpes are amazing, sweet fruits and fresh mint.

Desgraciadamente el cultivo se quedó estancado en altura y demás. Estoy decepcionado pero la próxima saldrá mejor, no haré tantas podas y quizás cultive automáticas para cosechar rápido

Believe or not, this baby just started flowering, I think my decision to defoliate will bare results, like how lamb’s breath turns out. She’s the last to flower but she’s one of the first plants I planted, it took longer than I expected to start flowering,

On day 2 of the week I turned both lights settings on (there are 3 options; growth: on flower: off / growth: off flower: on / growth: on flower: on) I set them both on because I read the more light the more bud and I was sure that the plant had started the transition and was flowering like stated in the previous week, the main stem got way to close to the light, (4in from ) and not having more room in the tent I bought a cheap garden net and distributed the plant so the light was as even as possible using a cheap little instrument with light sensor I bent the main stem pretty violently but it recovered well and is doing well tried dropping the temperature a bit by keeping my window open but I didn't drop it too much due too the fact that I live and sleep in the room just realized today that I should have changed the nutrient mix dosage at the begging of flower as recommended on the bottle to help the transition but I guess it turned out alright watering 2 -3 times a week 3L at a time

Week 1 Aiming for: Generative steering VPD 1.18 DLI=44 37-53luxx Day 3 Irrigation system did not produce runoff. I will hand water them all untill runoff.

Started some Fox Farms Grow Big this week, and they seem to have taken well. Growing very nicely, I'm tentatively trying a very mild LST on one of the Trainwreck plants, the one that is the smallest so far. I've never done any LST and am curious to see if this even works. Am normally partial to just letting the plants grow on their own.

This strain is a dream to grow, if you haven't tried it yet, it's amazing, it's easy, it's lush and vibrant, full of energy from seed to smoke. Great for organic grow styles and a fun plant to grow. The smoke I will update in the smoke review! I do not have words for the quality of this strain. In everything. Grow this and be absolutely amazed by its performance. I had won the seeds with the Halloween give-away but they are a sure winner and a keeper. @SweetSeeds congratulations on a champion auto-strain. I've grown auto's before, only outdoors, but nothing like this, nothing this big in such a short time, and this resilient for not only mistakes but everything. This plant will perform even if you were to mess it all up. Keep to 20 liters grow bags for best performance as you could see with my two plants. One as more developed, although everyone says over 15 ltr makes no difference, with organic coco hybrid super soil, it does. It is the difference in buffering of nutes, PH, heat, and moisture. Way less hassle in the bigger pot and this was an excellent learning curve. This grow started out as a match between Forbidden Runtz by Fastbuds and XL Runts by Sweetseeds. But since the playing field was uneven (pot wise but also heat and fresh air wise), the results do not count in my opinion. But my guess is (since I haven't weighed the Forbiddens) that the XLs for now won. But as I said it would not be fair. We will do the contest again when said playing field is level. For now thank you again for checking my diaries, if you have any questions or comments, always welcome my friend. Big Hug Bud

Last watering, I tested the runoff PH as below 4. I flushed 25gallons through the soil, which brought PH back up around 6. I then Fed with 2.5 gallons of 1tsp/gal Floranova bloom(750ppm) PH to 8, and Runnoff came out above 6. Today I Fed her 2.5 Gallons of 1tsp/gal Floranova bloom(750ppm) PH to 8, and Runnoff came out at ~5.5 I'm pretty sure the "Dry Koolbloom" is what caused the PH to start drifting downwards...
