🌱 Week 2 Report: The Journey Evolves 🌱 Grow Fam, the adventure is in full swing! 🌟 The Gorilla Melon from Fast Buds is out and shining its light, and the Papaya Zoap has made its debut in the Cannakan, bringing with it a story that adds even more depth to this incredible run. When the universe speaks, we listen. 🍈✨ I didn’t plan on popping Papaya Zoap from Sweet Seeds just yet, but sometimes things just have a way of aligning. After a few other seeds didn’t germinate, I felt an inner pull toward this special strain. As it turns out, the universe had something beautiful in mind! Just days later, my brother @daggadna also began germinating the same genetics—gifted to us during Spannabis. Was it a coincidence? I don’t think so. 🌱 This is more than just a grow now—it’s a journey with purpose, guided by synchronicity and connection. I can already feel the magic building up with this one, and I can’t wait to see where this road takes us! Now, onto the Papaya Zoap… something tells me this plant is going to take us on a ride we didn’t expect but absolutely needed. 💚 Let’s make something incredible, Brother Dagga—this one’s going to be legendary. Gear Updates: All Systems Go 🚀 This week, everything’s dialed in perfectly with the TrolMaster system. Shout out to the incredible DSH-2U Humidity Station! 🌬️ This tool is giving me precision control over the RH (relative humidity) ranges in the room, keeping the environment just right for my babies. Having that accurate readout and control allows me to maintain optimal levels for each stage of growth. It’s like magic—you plug it in, set the desired ranges, and let it do its thing! 🌡️ By monitoring and adjusting humidity levels on-the-fly through the TrolMaster app, I can ensure the environment remains stable, and that means happier plants and healthier growth! No more guessing games. From anywhere—whether I’m working in the garden or chilling out—I can track and tweak it all. Heck, I could be on the toilet and still have complete control over my room! 😂 The AMP-3 Precision Meter has been running 24/7 in my water solution, giving me real-time updates so I can make any corrections when needed, right from my phone. This tech has taken my grow to another level. ✨ Nutrition Update: Keeping It Balanced 🍃 As for feeding, we’re sticking with the basics to give the plants what they need, without overloading. Right now, I’m running: • Regulator: 0.15ml/l • Startbooster: 0.25ml/l For now, I feel like this is the sweet spot—just enough to encourage root development and early growth without overloading them. I’ll be adjusting the feed as we go deeper into the grow, keeping an eye on how they respond. You know me, always tweaking and improving along the way! Shoutouts & Gratitude 🙌💚 Huge love to everyone following along—whether you’re here on Grow Diaries, over on YouTube, or on IG. Your support keeps this journey alive, and I am so grateful for every comment, like, and message!

Let’s grow together, fam! Growers Love to All 💚 The love and support from the grow community is something I never take for granted. This journey wouldn’t be the same without all of you! I’m so honored to be part of this amazing community, and I can’t wait to share more updates and insights along the way. Remember, this isn’t just about growing plants—it’s about growing together. 🌱 Until next time, stay positive, stay inspired, and keep pushing forward! This week’s shoutout is dedicated to the synchronicity of life, my growing community, and of course, Papaya Zoap and Gorilla Melon. Let’s see what magic we can create together! #HighFrequency #PositiveVibesOnly #PapayaZoap #GorillaMelon #TrolMaster #InBalanceWithNature #GrowLife #AptusTruePlantScience #GrowersLove

Plant is starting to bloom. It's 16 inches from soil to top of plant. The way it is lst'ed it is about 10 inches from soil. Hoping I caught my tds and ec being extremely high quick enough. We will see come harvest.

I let her go another week. The trichome photo was on Wednesday and I was just starting to amber. I’ll harvest her today 22/2/2020 and then do a harvest report in a couple weeks after she’s cured up some.

Still a bit low on the feeding it seems, I do not want to push too much calmag and PH seems ok. Hopefully they manage to survive all the way to the end, especially for the big topped girl.

harvesting due to the beginning of the spring equinox in the southern hemisphere and so the days have more than 12 hours of light. The plant showed signs of revegetation in recent days, the same occurred with two other plants that will make the posts and give continuity to the revegetation diaries of the plants. Att colheita realizada devido ao ínicio do equinocio de primavera no hemisferio sul e com isso os dias tem mais de 12 horas de luz. A planta apresentava sinais de revegetação nos ultimos dias, o mesmo ocorreu com outras duas plantas que realizarei as postagens e darei continuidade aos diarios de revegetação das plantas. Att 👽 ***update on effect after two weeks of healing; ironically, even though I had harvested early due to revegetation, after 2 weeks of healing the herb shows strong citrus and herbal taste and smell. about the effects ... The wave is insane, almost completely cerebral, too strong. It was a good choice to keep it in revegetation and not pick up the other copy which I also let revegetate and make a diary. Att

Day 14: These little plants are just truckin along. They’re looking good. They seem a bit small, but are indica dominant so idk yet. I’m heading out of town for a couple days so they’ll get a heavy water and be left on cruise til I’m home. The Fast Buds from last round are curing up nicely and so powerful in potency and aroma. I’m pumped to see how these turn out. The XS2000 is providing a perfect amount of heat at 75% that it just takes a light misting to have these little plants right in the sweet spot for temps and humidity. I’ve said this a bunch, this is a powerful light so I have it set a bit higher than recommended but I want room for them to grow up into without stress. I’d rather have a bit of stretch to contend with rather than light stress. I’m excited to see how they look when I’m home. Hopefully quite a bit bigger!! Happy Growing 🌱

Smooth grow all round - poor weather at the start, centipedes near the end... otherwise okay.

Alright, week 11: we’re almost there, F1.The girls are doing good and, thankfully, the buds put on that little extra bit of volume I needed to be happy. They’re still frosty as ever, and this last week the aroma shifted slightly sweeter… but damn, the smell is loud (in a good way) and it makes every check-up a challenge. Now, about the Runtz: I thought she’d be the most disadvantaged one, but at this stage of flower she’s honestly turning into the most rewarding in the group. She keeps throwing resin for days, and her terps are driving me crazy super sweet, like gummy candy, with a strong fruity vibe. She’s stacking bud on top of bud, and I can’t wait to remove the three Hyperions so I can put her center stage and let her fully shine; once she’s not crammed in with the other roommates, the environmental parameters should be way easier to manage. This week I dropped EC a bit since we’re close to the finish line. Environment is still the same though: RH over 65%. Honestly I’m surprised they’ve made it this far with zero mold signs, probably because the buds aren’t crazy huge and rock-dense. So yeah, I can’t say this was the best run management-wise, but quality-wise they’re looking promising. That’s the situation. Happy growing fam, that’s all for this update.

Everything is pretty much the same this week the purple punch is doing up numbers, the zkittles is rite behind it with the gelato struggling. Already germinated some seeds for the summer grow hope the gelato grows better out doors

For now everything is going well .. the plant responds well to nourishment is vigorous and strong I think it will give a good harvest ... I added to the diet of the plants 3 new arrivals always Advanced sensysm tarantula and piranha we will see what improvements there will be

Welcome back for week 8 of life and the end of week 2 of flower. Busy week for these 3 ladies. In 16 days these girls have tripled in size. I switched to flower at 18 to 19in and 2 of these girls are slightly taller then 4ft. This strain is definitely has not stopped stretching sense the beginning. Topping and lst couldn’t keep them down. I try to keep an even canopy little over 3ft so I can avoid light problems but these girls are going to test my tent space and light. I added a video this week so everyone can see the difference compared to my other plant, which include 2 other royal queen seed strains. I’m couriers to see how buds will form on these girls. Definitely about 4 to 5in in between growth noobs. I don’t expect to see a large yield but that’s definitely my fault for not training a little to keep them more compact. Excited for the last 6 weeks of flower. Sink or swim at this point, but who doesn’t love a good challenge. Stay Tuned!

Another great week with this beautiful lady

Oct 7 2026 Shift from clear to cloudy starting to increase in speed, checking trichomes daily. I expect to harvest in 14 days. Absolutely blown away with how all 4 phenos have turned out, this is gonna be a hard decision, may even run 2 phenos if I can’t decide. What do y’all think based on these snow caps? ❄️🧢 Fan leaves fading hard, dryback is still within 48hr. Lung room kept at 45-50rh with a 60 pint humidifier. 2 vivosun fans keep temps good with good exhaust and intake. Intake is socked to keep contaminants out. Haven’t seen any life other than the plants and a few soil flies that die immediately cuz it’s pretty dry. This run is one for the books, cannot wait to see a consistent canopy next grow, pheno hunting FTW. This is basically my first real full sized photoperiod run, and first pheno hunt. Coming from autos, I can’t say I would ever go back, maybe for shits and gigs but not the main attraction. But Mango Runtz from Mephisto… I’d go again for sure.

Holy moly. She's growing... like a weed. She's loving the nutrient schedule and environment (finally). I was having an issue maintaining proper humidity levels and after exhausting EVERY possibility with venting, fans and otherwise, I have moved my dehumidifier inside the tent and it's working wonders. I drain the water with a shop-vac as I do the same for my run-off. Things are going great so far, I hope to continue this forward progress in the coming weeks. Going to LST sometime this week, just not sure when. 6/13: Started minor LST phase to open spots to light. Fan leaves are gonna be huge. I also overwatered her... I'm a noob. 6/14: No watering for 24 hours. I removed my LST. She wasn't yet strong enough for the arc I put into her. Another noob mistake and add the overwatering to this, I just wanted to destress her. 6/15: Back to regular 1 liter per 24 hours, also added Armor Si to the nute schedule. 6/16: She's showing signs of getting back to normal. Added Diamond Nectar on this day. I also LST'd her back to position. 6/18: Back to normal. I trimmed 1 fan leaf under the canopy that wasn't going to get any light. 6/19: She's better and growing well. I'm going to try and keep this vegetation stage a little longer. Added a little more water today, just a tiny bit. I have 2 other plants that are a week behind and I want them caught up for the flip as close as possible. Pray for me.

Comling soon

What a hot week! Temps outside the grow room soared and without insulation, so did the temps inside. Those calyxes are still swelling and new white hairs are popping out everyday. Trichs are still clear as crystal.

Day 61 - 24/11/19 Stopped adding nutes a few days ago and decided to flush. only feeding pure phed water now for roughly the next 5 days or so and then harvest time! Smell is insane! buds look a bit small but full of green/purple colours. so excited to be at the finish line for this one :) all the gear i need for harvesting, drying and curing is on its way so all i have to do now is keep watering and waiting :) Night 61 - Update pruning shears arrived! I decided to snip one of the side colas to dry and cure. the smaller bits of buds came off the stem while trimming so i cant hang them up to dry like the bud in the video i added. ive stored all the trim from the Dwarf diary and the side cola for making edibles this week. got a nice collection going now. and i added pictures and a video to show harvest and my temporary drying solution. Next update will be the full harvest so keep an aye out for that. Happy growing!

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?
