Week 18 (Week 10 Flower) Grow Diaries Report β Part One: Wrapping Up the Journey
π± Pre-Harvest Reflections
This week has been a mix of emotions as we approach the final chapter of this grow. Letβs talk about why we made the decision to pre-harvest portions of the Gorilla Melon and Papaya Zoap. While both plants have been incredible performers, a few buds on each started showing early signs of bud rot. This is an unfortunate but natural challenge when growing such dense and resin-packed colas. The decision to harvest those sections early was made to protect the rest of the crop and ensure quality and integrity for the remaining flowers. Vigilance is key in a packed garden like ours, and careful monitoring ensured the rest of the room remained safe and thriving.
π A Symphony of Colors and Frost
The grow room is a visual masterpiece this week, with shades of deep purples, vibrant greens, and golden hues taking over. The fading is absolutely breathtaking, showcasing the natural progression of the plants as they near the end. Combine this with the insane level of frost blanketing the buds, and itβs safe to say this is one of the most beautiful gardens Iβve ever cultivated.
β¨ Spectrum Management: The Secret to Stunning Results
The current lighting setup is a game-changer:
β’ 50% whites to maintain overall balance and structure.
β’ 100% reds for enhanced ripening and color development.
β’ 100% UVs to boost resin production and amplify those trichome levels.
The ThinkGrow LEDs paired with the TrolMaster spectrum control system have truly unlocked the gardenβs full potential. Watching the plants sparkle under this setup feels like seeing stars on a clear nightβmagical and unforgettable.
π Quick Recap: The Journey So Far
From seed to this incredible moment, this grow has been a testament to precision and passion. From germination to veg and through flowering, every detail was carefully tuned, every decision made with intention. Along the way, we navigated challenges like pests, mold, and environmental shifts, proving that adaptability and dedication are essential. And here we are, ready to bring this journey to a close with nothing short of perfection.
