🌱 Weekly Report: Week 16 Flower – Gorilla Melon Highlights 🌱 Room Dynamics and Challenges This week marked a pivotal phase as we approached harvest. The decision to harvest Gorilla Melon in two stages allowed us to navigate a potential mold issue effectively. The mold was confined to select areas of dense colas, which were promptly removed to protect the rest of the plant. This experience reinforces the importance of keen observation, especially in the final weeks. Environmental Parameters • Temperature: 26°C • RH: 53.2% • VPD: 1.57 kPa • CO₂ Levels: 1067 ppm • PPFD: 690 µmol/m²/s • Solution Stats: pH 6.67 | TDS 695 ppm | Temp 18.3°C The ThinkGrow LEDs and TrolMaster systems shone during this critical period, maintaining precise control over the environment. The addition of deep red and UV light at 100%, with whites at 50%, seemed to amplify trichome production, resulting in a frosty finish across the garden. Highlights of the Week • Fading Colors: The garden displayed a stunning spectrum of fading hues, signaling the end of the cycle. Gorilla Melon’s red highlights and frost stood out beautifully. • Defoliation Success: The earlier defoliation efforts paid off, minimizing mold spread and allowing light to penetrate deep into the canopy. • Trichome Inspection: The frost level across Gorilla Melon was nothing short of mesmerizing, a testament to her genetics and the controlled environment. Gratitude and Community A heartfelt thank you to the community for your support and engagement. The sponsors—ThinkGrow LED, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, and ProMix Soil—made this run possible. It’s been a pleasure to share this journey with you all. What’s Next? With Gorilla Melon harvested, the spotlight now shifts to the other girls in the garden. Stay tuned for their individual harvest reports, smoke reviews, and more as we wrap up this epic series!

Week 4 Unveiled: The Cherry Cola Chronicles Continue !!! Greetings, fellow cultivators! Here we are, deep into Week 4 of the Cherry Cola Auto journey, and the excitement is reaching new heights. Our green companion, the true MVP, has surprised me once again, proving that in the world of cultivation, every week is an uncharted adventure. The Unanticipated Champion, our Cherry Cola Auto, still basking under the Lumatek 465W Zeus Compact Pro LED, is turning heads with its tenacity. Despite the unexpected topping last week, she's unfazed, embracing the bends and twists with a champion's spirit. It's like witnessing a botanical underdog rise to glory, and I can't help but be in awe. The bending saga persists, and our green queen is loving every moment of it. She's becoming a masterpiece of flexibility, gracefully opening up to the light. The art of bending not only shapes her silhouette but also ensures every nook and cranny receives its fair share of photosynthetic love. It's a dance of growth and adaptation that keeps getting better with each passing day. In a mission to unlock the maximum potential, I've embarked on a journey of gentle coercion, encouraging our Cherry Cola Auto to spread its wings wide. It's like sculpting a botanical masterpiece, creating a symphony of leaves that harmonize under the luminescent embrace of the LED glow. The anticipation for what this green canvas will become is both thrilling and infectious. The nutrient recipe from Aptus Holland remains the backbone of this flourishing spectacle. The magical blend of Regulator, caMg-boost, Start Booster, and Enzym+ continues to be the heartbeat of our green haven. It's not just feeding the plant; it's nourishing a thriving ecosystem of growth and vitality. As we conclude this Week 4 chronicle, the Cherry Cola Auto stands tall, a beacon of resilience and beauty. Each week, she surprises and delights, making this journey an exhilarating tale of cultivation. What twists and turns await in the chapters to come? Only time will tell, but one thing is for certain – the Cherry Cola Chronicles are far from over. Stay tuned, green enthusiasts, for the next thrilling installment of this green saga!

#1 hatte 1 Woche länger gestrecht und wird auch generell 1 Woche länger brauchen als #2. Schauen aber beide gut aus! Ich bin sehr zufrieden, wirklich ein toller Strain #1 hat ein bisschen erdigere terps aber mit viel frischer Zitrone.. erinnert mich an die guava von Fastbuds #2 hat sehr süße Zitronenterps welche schon fast den Aktivkohlefilter an seine Leistungsgrenze bringen

I don't think it too well to the heat/downpours - something clearly went wrong early in the flowering stage.

Die Pflanzen haben ihren Stretch voll eingesetzt – das Höhenwachstum ist deutlich sichtbar. • Wuchs: Die Triebe sind stark nach oben geschossen und beginnen, die Blütepositionen zu bilden. Das Netz hilft dabei, die Struktur offen und gleichmäßig zu halten. • Farbe: Leuchtend grünes, gesundes Laub ohne Anzeichen von Stress oder Mangel. • Form & Struktur: Gleichmäßiger Aufbau mit stabilen Haupttrieben – ideale Vorbereitung auf die Blüte. • Gesamtzustand: Vital, stark und optimal im Übergang zwischen Veg- und Flower-Phase.

It rained a lot this week and I did not give my plants any nutrients because they were too wet. I let nature take over for the week and we are looking good! One thing I really like about this plant is its two colas. My friend helped me pinch it correctly --this is a new technique for me and I was a little scared I wouldn't pinch in the right place.lol I am curious to see what each cola produces.

We’re officially in the final week for my Strawberry Gorilla Automatic from Fast Buds! 🌟 This beautiful girl has had a very quick flowering phase, but looking at the trichomes, they’re right where they need to be so no complaints! She will be flushed throughout this week and then harvested and hung up to dry next week. I’m super happy with how she’s developed!😋

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 6/16- Week Six is here and the Papaya Sherbet from FastBuds is beginning to finally take off! Our weather is beautiful now with daytime high temp's in the 80's F without a lot of rain so I am watering her daily at sundown with approximately 5-7g of well water. 6/18- I gave the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod a good watering today at sundown via the garden hose with straight well water. 6/20- I watered today and also did a little canopy maintenance, removing some leaves down low, along with some small shoots that would only sap energy better used elsewhere on the plant in the future. 6/22- Six weeks from seed and I have a sneaking suspicion that the FastBuds PApaya Sherbet photoperiod is getting ready to take off in a big way! I could be wrong, but we'll have to wait and see! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏
