1st day of week 4 Mixed the Soil mix that will be feeding these girls throughout the rest of their lives. Will let it rest for 1-2 weeks before selecting the final top 4 to go into the 10 gallon pots. Water fed 2 cups of plain water to all today Rolled lighting schedule back to 16-8. Getting my girls 8 hours of sleep a night Increased light intensity to 550 W Day 23 Water fed 2 cups of water with silica added Foliar fed with fish fertilizer and silica Day 24 Water fed with water + mychoriza + beneficial bacteria Day 25 Pruned lower leaves and nodes as needed for better air flow and light penetrative. Gotta get these girls to put all their focus in cranking out new nodes now for the next few weeks to fill up the tent space for flowering. Looking for the top 4 with the most impressive smell, vigor and structure Also water fed 2 cups each again today. They are needing fed every day almost now cause they are out growing the 1 gal pots. Transplanting will need to happen within the next fee days. Day 26 Eliminated 1 Kosher Kush and 1 Double Stuffed Sorbet transplanted last half gallon pot (Blueberry 6) water fed 1 cup of water to all foliar fed with fish fert + cal mag Last day of week 4: I fed 1 cup of water and then super cropped most. Some got LST stakes. Kind of had a little regret after super cropping most. Next run I will do zero lst or hst training. Just grow them to 24 inches (6 weeks) then move to final pots and put in trellis net 12" over top of pot thereby allowinh the the trellis net to gently fold over the top 8-12" of the plants, creating the same training effect but with no stalling of growth. Train them into the net for final 2 weeks of veg and for the 1st week or 2 of flowering.

This girl was a high effort high reward type of girl for sure. She was struggling with nutrients which is why towards the end all of the leaves were just yellow and crispy. I didn't manage to find the right balance of nutrients for her BUT the yield and end product definitely did not suffer. This strain's smell alone is 100% worth growing!

So I seem to have lost a few of the videos I had of me constructing the actual garden area. I will post them If I find them as It Is quite a transformation! I originally only planted a couple of the Stardawgs and 4 of the GG. Due to been a bit of a maniac and a false sense of confidence, I thought.. ill just flood it 😂

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

I am keeping the plants at a more or less constant temperature at 22 degrees with a humidity of about 50% ....... I started to administer the biobizz grow with half the dose brought back from the factory, about 0.5 ml in a liter of water ... the sixth seed is sprouting very slowly ... I lowered the lamp to 50 cm ... I gladly accept advice ... thanks

Week 7, one more week and i will harvest this precious girls, they dont require lot of attention and even slightly less nutrients would have done the trick! I still have 1 of these ladies in veg so i now what to expect and what to do! Great strain, very generous with very little attention, the perfect strain, a very nice sweet smell, it reminds me of candy very sweet, its going to be delicious for sure!

A planta segue forte, saudável e explosiva. Na última semana, a evolução dela a cada 24h foi algo impressionante. Segurei um pouco na nutrição para prevenir um overfert. Fiz uma leve defoliação e também tirei alguns brotos menos promissores. Seguimos aí para mais uma semana. Colaborem com meu cultivo e me ajudem com dicas! ⛓️💪🏽

Week 18 (Week 10 Flower) Grow Diaries Report – Part One: Wrapping Up the Journey 🌱 Pre-Harvest Reflections This week has been a mix of emotions as we approach the final chapter of this grow. Let’s 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. 🌈 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 it’s safe to say this is one of the most beautiful gardens I’ve ever cultivated. ✨ Spectrum Management: The Secret to Stunning Results The current lighting setup is a game-changer: • 50% whites to maintain overall balance and structure. • 100% reds for enhanced ripening and color development. • 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 garden’s full potential. Watching the plants sparkle under this setup feels like seeing stars on a clear night—magical and unforgettable. 🌟 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. Week 18 (Week 10 Flower) Grow Diaries Report – Part Two: The Tools That Made It Possible 💡 ThinkGrow LEDs: These lights have been the heartbeat of the grow, delivering unparalleled spectrum control and efficiency. The ability to fine-tune every stage of the plant’s life cycle has been a game-changer. 🌬️ AeroFan System: Consistently circulating air while keeping the environment balanced and mold-free. The AeroFan’s role in preventing hotspots and ensuring even coverage cannot be overstated. 📱 TrolMaster System: The brain behind the operation, the TrolMaster system has provided unmatched control and precision. From monitoring temperature and humidity to dialing in lighting and CO2, it has truly transformed how I grow. 🏕️ Tent-X Setup: The foundation of the grow, this tent provided the perfect space for controlled cultivation. Its design maximized efficiency while keeping everything neat and manageable. 🌡️ Sensors and Monitors: Every parameter was tracked with pinpoint accuracy. From VPD to soil moisture, the sensors ensured every need of the plants was met in real-time. Each tool, piece of gear, and setup component has worked seamlessly together, creating a true ecosystem of excellence. This grow wouldn’t have been the same without them. Ending with Gratitude and Excitement To the community: thank you for joining me on this incredible journey. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or just tuned in, your support has been everything. From the lovers to the critics, you all push me to grow (pun intended). To the sponsors: ThinkGrow LED, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix Soil, and everyone else involved—your products are not just tools; they’re inspirations. And finally, to these plants: you’ve taught me patience, resilience, and the beauty of the process. 🔥 Next Up: Stay tuned for the epic harvest and a deep dive into the final results, from trichomes to yields and beyond. The end is just the beginning of the next adventure. 🌟 Let’s finish this grow strong! 🌱✨ Growers Love.
