Grow Journal Week 3: Bloom Phase Progress 🌼 Hello dear growers and growerettes, I’m thrilled to share the third week of the bloom phase in our grow journal! Here are all the details for Week 3: Weekly Progress We are at the end of Bloom Week 3, and the plants are thriving! Even our previously problematic plant has made a full recovery. My favorite plant, the one on the left, has claimed an entire half of the tent for itself. The stretch phase has now concluded, and I am very pleased with the results. Watering and Control Systems The watering system is operating smoothly, even with the increased water consumption of the ladies. The Blumat and TrolMaster systems are working without any issues. Challenges In Week 2, I performed a heavy defoliation since I had some time that day. Although it was a bit early, the ladies have recovered well. Due to limited time over the past two weeks, and this likely continuing until the end of December, I've been doing my best to keep the journal as current as possible. Goals and Expectations In the next two weeks, I expect my buds to start swelling, and I am very excited about this development. Thank you for following along, and stay tuned for more updates! 🌿✨

Start of week 9 - Day 56 from start of bloom Giving her just straight pH'd water with a bit of the hydro-sparkle. I will change out the res with Clearex in 3 or 4 days. Most likely harvest 1 week after that. Total ~66-70 days

Hello everyone 😊 Week 22 = harvest week. Just cut the plant and she's hung up to dry. The plan was to keep the plant whole but I decided, due to my injured elbow, it would be smarter to just use separate branches. More lightweight buds to move around haha. I also splitted the stem in the final 5 days. Don't know if it will have some effect. I didn't wanted to take the risk for longer since I don't have a microscope. She flowered for 10,5 weeks so I guess she was done. I cut away al the leaves that had brown or crispy leaves/tips. The other ones I left. Also maximum branch lengths to slow down the drying process. Last year the buds were dry too quick. I hope to leave them hanging for 10 to 14 days now with a more controlled process . It's the first time im trying this technique. I will keep the airflow on point to avoid bad conditions. The room temperature is around 18° Celsius I guess. Average room humidity. I inspected the buds well and I think this is a good year 😊 no mold, lots of brown pistils and pretty compact. I flushed for 3 weeks so no chance on bad taste I guess. One minor thing : still some popcornbuds. Discovered them a bit too late after I already removed some others a few weeks prior. Minor mistake. The Harvest report will follow during November. Gonna let them dry well before testing. Thx to everyone who followed along with this round. I had some good advice and I learned a lot of good stuff. See u in 4 weeks for smoke report. Adios😉

My biggest harvest yet from a single plant! Closing in on 1 pound per plant which is very exciting. I could have vegged this plant longer but it still takes forever to mature. It never produces amber trichomes in my hands and just stops growing even though it's still consuming nutrients. This is the nicest LST/topping job that I have done yet and every branch produced a massive cola. I lost one cola to white mold but I have busted up the rest and inspected everything so I think it was an isolated incident. It smells amazing and it's gonna cure in the jars now! Thanks for following along on my 3rd White Widow run. I am going to be focusing on autoflowers

During week 7 the 3 plants continue to grow outstandingly well! The BADAZZ-CHEESE and ZHEETOS from BIG BUDDHA SEEDDS have a healthy green color and grow so much foliage that I have to defoliate on a regular basis. On day 43 (=flowering day 19) I take off all bigger fan leaves in order to ensure a better airflow thru the closet. The humidity is unfortunately still on the high side and sometimes exceeds 80% in the daily maximum, that is MUCH too high during flowering. I increased the dose of BIO NOVA nutrients according to their feeding scheme and all plants LOVE IT! The ZHEETOS #1 plant grows much taller than her sister ZHEETOS #2, therefore I decide to SUPER-CROP her on Day 48 (=FD 23). This technique developed by SOMA from SOMA-SEEDS is one of my favorites and I use it since years in order to bush out plants, which grow to high. Appr. 15-20 cm from the top of the plant, right above an internode, I take the main stem between two fingers and press very hard until I can feel the fibres inside the stem brake. By slowly pressing all around the diameter of the stem I create a weak spot at which I bend over the stem, so it looks 90-180 degrees downward. I do this very carefully to NOT BRAKE the outer skin of the stem while I bend the stem downwards. Even if some fibres brake, the stem will repair itself within a few days to a week and then start to point upwards again...👍😃 During the time the main stem needs to repair itself, all other side-stems will grow more upwards and this makes the plant bush out more. At the same time a super-cropped plant will produce bigger buds at harvest time, than a plant where you did not do that. Somehow the plant reacts to being hurt by getting stronger and producing more! CHECK OUT THE VIDEO ABOVE TO SEE ME SUPER-CROP! 😎 I also took a video ONE DAY after the procedure (on DAY 49), in order to show how resilient the plant is and how much she immediately repairs herself. Already then the main top has turned and points upwards to the light again, ITS FANTASTIC TO SEE! Simply a miracle plant...

Unfortunately, the development of the buds does not look good. The buds are all tiny and growing very slowly. As we are already in flowering week 7, I do not believe that Lady Runtz will be nice yielder 😂.

Scusate il ritardo ragazzi ma purtroppo ultimamente nn riesco a stare dietro a tutti i progetti, apparte questo questa settimana sta andando tutto per il meglio, la ragazza è un esplosione di vitalità, ho provveduto a fare topping della cima principale e di tutti i rami più bassi, poi ho legato le cime per farle andare più latelaralmemte, poi volevo fare la stessa cosa con le due cime principali, ma stupidamente ho tirato troppo e nel mezzo di è spezzata leggermente, però per fortuna per ora nn ho avuto problemi e spero che la ferita che ho provocato involontariamente, si rimargini senza dare particolari problemi futuri alla struttura della pianta, vedremo se adottore dei tutori per quei due rami oppure che si irrobustiscano da soli.. Per il resto i nutrienti stanno facendo il loro dovere e la pianta è in ottima salute quindi non posso che essere più che felice per come stanno andando le cose! Grazie come sempre a Mars hydro per la nuova spettacolare luce, che sono sicuro farà la differenza insieme ai nutrienti professionali di cui dispongo! Grazie mille a tutti voi che mi seguite un buon 420 a tutti!

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 26/04/19 || To/Hasta: 02/05/19 From day/Desde día: 64 || To day/Hasta día: 70 You can find the Money Maker Diary here: ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Money Maker aquí:** https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25667-gorillamakingmoney-gorilla-vs-money-m -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- 13 & 15 - Plant with symptoms of an overdose of co2 in the roots, this came from the very beggining of growing 20 - Awesome leaf isn't it 22, 23 & 24 - Buds are forming very awesome. Full of crystals with very beauty pistils 25 - Probably one of the best shots i ever take, i'm in love with this one. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- After defoliation, the buds have started to release crystals in a very massive way, although the nodes of the tails are not growing enough to join with their upper part, but, they are growing a bit and fattening a lot. II'm very amazed with the amount of crystals present in all the leaves, be they small or large. Just touching the surface of any of them your fingers get too sticky. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- I didn't raised the ammount of water this week, i'm watering 1 day and then 2 dry days. This week covers 3 days of watering that's where the increment comes from. 26/04/19 - 1,250 ml with B52, Nirvana, Big Bud, Bud Candy, Rhino Skin & Bud Factor-X @ PH6.4 & 1.2 E.C. 29/04/19 - 1,250 ml with All week nutrients -(Nirvana & Blombastic) also Big Bud half dosed @ PH6.4 & 2.1 E.C. Note: 2.1 E.C is too high for this week, i should be around 1.6 E.C. (I'm testing a thing) 02/05/19 - 1,250 ml with Rhino Skin, Big Bud, Bud Candy, B52, Bud Factor-x, Blombastic, Sensizym & Nirvana @ PH6.4 & 1.5 E.C. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES Y VÍDEOS----- 13 & 15 - La planta con síntoma de sobredosis de co2 en las raíces, esto viene del principio de la fase de crecimiento 20 - ¿No es una hoja increíble? 22, 23 & 24 - Los cogollos se están formando preciosos, llenos de cristales y con unos pistilos increíbles. 25 - Esta es probablemente una de las mejores fotos que he hecho. A mi me encanta por lo menos. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Después de la defoliación, los cogollos han empezado a soltar cristales de manera muy masiva, aunque los nodos de las colas no están creciendo lo suficiente como para unirse con su parte superior, si están creciendo algo y engordando mucho. No me deja de asombrar la cantidad de cristales presentes en todas las hojas, ya sean pequeñas o grandes. Con sólo rozar la superficie de cualquiera de ellas se te quedan los dedos pegados. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- No he incrementado la cantidad de riego esta semana, es sólo que han coincidido 3 días de riego y suelen ser 2. Riego día si, 2 no. 26/04/19 - 1.250 ml con B52, Nirvana, Big Bud, Bud Candy, Rhino Skin y Bud Factor-X @ PH6.4 & 1.2 E.C. 29/04/19 - 1.250 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Nirvana & Blombastic) también el Big Bud sólo en media dosis @ PH6.4 & 2.1 E.C. Nota: 2.1 E.C. es muy elevado para esta semana, debería estar alrededor de 1.6 (Estoy probando una cosa) 02/05/19 - 1.250 ml con Rhino Skin, Big Bud, Bud Candy, B52, Bud Factor-x, Blombastic, Sensizym y Nirvana @ PH6.4 & 1.5 E.C.

This lady got cut on day 63, I am extremely impressed with how she turned out considering she got nothing but PHed water the entire grow! She is extremely sticky & frosty and has a unbelievable smell everytime you open the jar! Definitely one of my favorite strains I have grown so far can’t wait to see how she does using nutrients next grow! If you havnt already I highly recommend going to check out Doctors Choice seed bank for some fire genetics & all around great people! Thanks for following the grow & stay tuned for the Rock Machine & Doctors Choice #1 harvest coming soon! Happy growing friends!🌱✌️🏼🙏🏼

So day 21 of flower today, major defoliation done yesterday and feed only water and molasses phed to 6.5. The plants look good again but very bare with out the leafs, lots of light can peneetrate the lower buds now tho. Hopefully see some nice growth this week 😀. Day 23 of flower. Been battling humidity these past few days, with the de humidifier on i can get it to 48% so not to bad now, a good purchase lol. Plants are stinking really skunky when you open the room up, but to touch and smell its like pure citric 🍋 lemon. There Starting to put out lots of trichomes now, hopefully I have a good pheno.
