She looks very healthy but two of her 20 tops had to go. So she now has 18 tops. Her sister still has 6.

Day 64 Flower (Day 106) Today is the first day of the 10th week of flower and I put on a powerful headlight and some magnifying glasses and closely inspected the right girl during the dark period, so the colors from the grow lights didn't fool me. Unfortunately, I found another couple of buds with bud rot. Soon I'll have to decide to harvest the plant now and cut my losses even though she isn't done, or I'll take my chances and let her go a while longer. I turned up my extraction fan, installed another circulation fan, and ordered a dehumidifier that will arrive tomorrow. I'm hoping that all those measures will bring down the humidity in the tent (unfortunately, I can't do anything about the temps) and prevent further rot. I will let her go another few days and see if any additional rot pops up. Fingers crossed that it won't. The left girl is just doing her thing, but it doesn't look like she will fatten her buds. I guess all that stress in the tiny tent was too much for her. No matter what the result of this grow will be, it certainly has been a great learning experience. Day 65 Flower (Day 107) Things are looking good for the right girl as I haven't found any more bud rot yet. Turning up the extraction fan certainly helped, not only with the humidity but also the temperature dropped. Not by a huge amount, but I'll take whatever improvement I can get. Today the dehumidifier arrived as well, and I put it in the tent right away. The humidity in the tent has now dropped from the high 60s to a much more suitable mid-40s, and I hope this will be enough together with additional air circulation to prevent any further rot. I looked a bit closer at the trichomes today and found that most have gone cloudy, and I finally found some amber ones (about damn time!). I'm aiming for around 20-25% amber in this harvest as I'm hoping for a relatively "heavy" smoke - one of those frying-pan-to-the-head kinds of smokes suitable for late nights. Day 66 Flower (Day 108) Still no signs of more bud rot. Fingers crossed All I did today was to mix up some more nematodes in water and then feed each girl with 3 liters of it at ph 6.4. I'm not sure it was necessary for my main tent as the fungus gnats seem to have died out by themselves. I put in a new yellow sticky trap yesterday, but it was still empty today, and many dead gnats were lying on the tent floor. I have no real idea why, as I don't use any pesticides, but maybe the gnats really don't like this new low humidity in the tent. In any case, I'm just happy that the little buggers are gone. Day 67 Flower (Day 109) The bud rot is still staying away, and I'm getting hopeful that it will stay gone. All I did today was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.4 water. She was a bit thirsty as I had the irrigation turned off for a couple of days due to the nematodes I gave them yesterday. I've now turned on the system in each tent and will just cruise along until harvest. The girls are already way over time, but most trichomes are cloudy, and I've started to see some amber here and there. Although, not much of a fade so far. Day 68 Flower (Day 110) All I did today was snap a couple of pics. It's all just a waiting game at this point, and I hope it won't take that much longer. I'm ready to cut the girls down and have some time off before the next season is here. I plan to grow a couple of photo CBD girls in my main tent and maybe an auto in my smaller tent. We'll see. But yeah, first, the current grow must come to an end. It looks like the left girl is starting to get her fade on, so there's that at least. I didn't bother looking at the trichomes today, but I'll have another look in a day or two. Day 69 Flower (Day 111) I didn't do a single thing with the girls today except snapping a couple of pics. What I did, though, was to make a smoke test of the right girl. Let me explain: Earlier this week, I had to cut off four buds due to bud rot. Out of those four buds, I saved two small tops after trimming off all rot (as well as plenty more just to be safe). I left those tops on the tent floor, where they dried in only a few days, and yesterday I decided to try a smoke. Naturally, I can't say anything about taste as this weed is dried the worst way possible: fast, hot, and in the light. On top of that, it's not cured either. That being said, holy smokes, batman! This stuff kicks like a mule, which is why I didn't post this last night already. I was too stoned to care. Precisely the effect I was hoping for from this harvest: properly stoned and incredibly lazy. Boom! Day 70 Flower (Day 112) Today was the last day of week 10 of flower. Not much exciting is happening this late in flower, so it is primarily a waiting game at this point. I did remove the irrigation system from the left girl and will hand water her instead. That cheap system I had was too erratic, and I'm better off without it. Plus, I hope that she will be done soon-ish. She will never win a beauty contest due to her scraggly foxtail flowers, but I'm still happy to get something from her considering all the stress she went through. The right girl has been doing fine all week, and no other bud rot has been seen since I fixed her environment. I rechecked the trichomes today, and still hardly any amber in either girl. I'll let them go for another week, but then it is time for the chopping block. This grow already went a lot longer than planned initially, and it is time to bring it to a close soon.

*Increaded PPM to 650 *Last plant showed sex it’s s Female. Looked like a male almost chopped it. *We Can say we got a 60% female return. *These are ready to flower but need to take clones first.

Day 42 - 17/01/24 All plants are looking vigorous today! Tent is very green, LST did it's job, and bud sites are all upwards! Keeping a close eye on P2 and P3 for any yellowing as they're coming up to the 6 weeks in the medium. P1 is making some headway with 3 of the sprouts. one is still weak looking. 18/6 Light cycle in place, all at 100% intensity. Temps are around 26-28C in the day time and around 20C at night. Lights off temps hover between 16-19C Negative pressure in the tent, all is looking well. We're pushing close to flowering!! Day 45 - 20/01/24 Whilst doing some checks, I found a little buddy growing next to Plant 1. I must have been sloppy when I topped the plant and dropped a piece into the pot!! I don't know what, if anything, will come out of the little thing, but im gonna leave her in the pot, see how she goes!! P2 is looking pretty good. Bud sites all exposed to light, did some slight clean up on the branches. Pre flower signs are all over this big plant. same with P3 as well. Gave all 3 first bit of extra nutrients this grow. Used some Plagron Products. Let's see how they take to it! 1ml/L Plagron PowerBuds, Green Sensation and Sugar Royal as well as 1ml/L of CalMag. Day 47 - 22/01/24 All Plants are looking great! vigorous and lush, responding well to the extra nutrients!! P3 is getting the major LST treatment this time. Got all branches stretched out, all bud sites in direct light. I also folded down the lip of the fabric pots to expose more of the lower half to air and light. Looking good so far, flowering fast approaching!!

All looking good apart from some leafs yellowing

Day 12 of flower and she's looking great! Looking a little hungry so I just fed and water her with a healthy dose of Advanced Nutrients! We're on our way!

01/19 - Tied her down completely (HST) - full light coverage - running in 2x2 until clones in 3x3 are complete then transplanting into 3x3 - offsetting clean water and nute feeds. 01/24 - She got a little funky on me a couple days ago after the tent and light transfer, She is in recovery mode right now - She should be back to norm by Mon - Tuesday.

The addition of an enzyme has produced amazing results that were shocking and worrying at first. Massive rise in EC and PH every 24 hours from 5.3 - 6.8. Research yet no sign of any harm to the plants, in fact they seem very happy! The enzymes has created an environment friendly to the beneficial microbes and fungi that has lead to a feeding frenzy (Which wouldn't have happened ad I used Hygrozyme from the start.). EC rises a point or two as the microbes and plants expel waste and create a plethora of negative charged hydrogen ions. Thus, the PH rises. Never above 6.8, strangely. Because the microbes are eating and shitting so well, they have added a lot of chilated nutrients that are easier for the plants to uptake at a wider range of PH (Yes, some as high as 6.8). The fact that there are so many bunches of calyxes sprouting and exploding, filling in the flower space is proof enough for me.

It’s Friday, blue skies but a chill petrols the outdoors, amazing how in my car the sun burns and outdoors it hardly keeps me warm when the wind gusts. I am impressed with the amount of growth once again, she continues surprising me, unlike Unknown. I will be using the main brunch as rott that sprout a pair of trees at each nod, I hope she compiles before she goes into flowering, speaking of which, when I watch a lot of the informative videos about MariJane, a lot of growers switch lighting to kick start flowering, I think we here in South Africa we do have people who practice that act, but I feel a lot of us here in South Africa allow the plant to live out all it’s phases, to ensure quality. A lot of people are outdoor growers in our 9months of grow season, winter you can grow, you will only get indica heights whether sativa or hybrid. I cannot wait to showcase this tree when it’s in her last weeks of flowering, I myself will not believe the vision was achieved, growing weed is boring when the tree is in vegetation, not to mention I might encounter some male plants.

End of Week 9

Week 10

Decided to give this one another go. Changes in setup: fresh compost, ph balanced with balanced water before I even placed the seed. Propagation dome to keep the humidity up. So today I did a thing Juan will no longer be an outdoor plant as such i have made a hidden garden check out the video Planning on topping at node 5, then LST up until last 2 weeks of flower with minimum defoliation as we go We have life new pictures from days 3/4 Now lives in the grow room

Doing her thing this week. Trichomes forming nicely.

My remaining plants were taken down 10 days ago and allowed to dry @65F /60-65%RH for 8 days before jarring. They prob could have made it another week outside but i didn't want to chance the cold. The dry weight was just over 5oz for the 2 plants pictured, 4 oz of bud and another Oz of popcorn. This strain is GREAT for sleep but can be a real daytime motivation killer.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la primera semana de florscion de estas Gorilla Melon feminizadas de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. Y ya superaron el shock provocado por el mismo trasplante. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

La Runtz tiene toques leves de color rosado supongo que de la Gelato, tenemos dos phenos que pinta. Muy bien farmers Pcg de momento nunca me a fallado!💪🏻
