🌱 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.

Keeping natural form. Blackberry gum is huge as I heard from others. Did some heavy defoliation.. first time ever so it's an experiment. Flooded my tent with no tray... Needed to redo connections on the tubing... Then flooded with a new tray, needed to secure the AQUAVALVES on one autopot base.... Looking good. Still running 24 hrs... Rock and roll 🤘

Oh ja. Durchgebrochen. Voll, juckt sie nicht. Sehen gut aus, Sonst. Na ja meine Meinung. Die Pineapple riecht nach pineapple. Klar steht drauf. Die Lsd? Ahm da wird es schwierig. Alle Kräuter des waldes. Fruchtig, süß, honig, und jetzt... KNOBLAUCH.... BÄRLAUCH., IM ernst. Nachdem die ganzen süßen gerüche verflogen sind, bleibt ein geruch von knoblauch ( ganz leicht, aber knoblauch) zurück. Verrückt, ganz verrückt, habe es durch zweite nase bestätigen lassen. Wie geil. Barneys Farm. Wow. Ich möchte mich erstmal bedanken für dieses nette Growdiaries. Ich dacht erst hier wäre es nur kommerziell. Ist aber nicht so. Danke dafür. Dewegen erzähl ich mal über meinen grünen Daumen. Den gibt es gar nicht. Alles ging früher bei mir ein. Kakteen sukulenten, ficus Benjamin, hamster, hamster? Ja nicht nur einmal n Hamster.... Also, wie kommts das ich diesen grow großkriege?! Ok eigentlich easy, nimm dir was gutes. Greenception gc4 125 watt verbrauch (übrigens 120 watt Lichtleistung 5 für die zu lauten lüfter) homebox q60 (max 2 pflanzen, bedeutet, eigenverbrauch, komme ich zwar ins jailhouse für, weil strafe zahlen ok, no prob, aber beim Versuch des mitnehmens meines nicht verseuchten leckeren gesunden, knallenden, für mich bestimmten weeds, ( dafür, und das wird häslich) gibt es richtig shelte. Und damit das nicht passiert habe ich selbstverständlich ein paar regeln befolgt. 1 bleibe in den schatten(was ich zwar mit beitritt zu Growdiaries abgelegt habe, allerdings habe ich es satt verseuchtes weed zu rauchen, und bin dafür LEGALIZE IT.. Und im Bekanntenkreis no speak no tell no sell. 2. Nimm dir ne bombenfeste genetik, mit bitte bitte Ruderalis( macht sie viel sehr viel stabiler) übergib das alles mir, mache 9 wochen lang die Augen zu und staune. Als ich mit meinem ersten zu Kollegen kamen und wir zusammen rauchten. Bekam ich direkt die Anerkennung die beste connection seid 2 - 3 jahren zu haben. King! King with crown. Den 2 ten grow habe ich innerhalb 30 min gegrillt. Den 3.... Na ja ich sage mal so, zu früh geerntet und mit zuviel Dünger versaut. Aber nicht gekillt. Und jetzt mit Barneys Farm. Mann ich bin glücklich. Sie Leben, und sehen jetzt schon toll aus. Klar haben sie gelitten. Bin ja ich. Aber grins, wenn ich killer aller pflanzen, sowas hinzaubere, dann kann das wirklich jeder. Meinen Respekt dafür das die pflanzen so stabil sind, besonders, wenn man bedenkt wie sie duften. Denn das ist aussergewöhnlich gut. Tag 64. Jetzt ist beginn der Woche 9 seid Kontakt mit Wasser. Ich schreibe halt sehr gerne, wie man sieht. Aus diesem Grund, mal eben in die Runde meine Frage. Nervt es euch? Dieses hmm hmm rumgeschriebsel, weitläufige Erzählungen wie eine einzelne Welle die durch den Ozean gleitet? Ja? Mir egal! Sativa... 😛 Aber echt mal bei Indica, macht man kaum noch was... Was auch nicht schlecht ist. Muhahaha. Und das schlimmste? Die 9 te Woche ist erst zwei Tage alt. 2. . . 😛 Ich springe aus dem Fenster. Nein mache ich nicht. Ist eh Erdgeschoss... Und es Regnet. Trichome Check on L. S. D. 80%milky 20% clear. Expect the little ones. The popcorn buds re from L. S. D. Suddenly they where there. Maybe the same @pineapple express. Except they getting bigger and new phylaxien re everywhere.... And @theL.s.d again, the christalls are @ another color shining. Like blue diamonds... And i cant catch this on my photos. PS. Not Garlic, Moschus is the smell.

I started using fox farm liquid nutrients as a supplemental fertilizer along with Dr Earth. I too dressed with Hapoy Frog Soil conditioner and added Cal Mag for the first time. I made up a foliage spray from fox farm’s big bloom and it seems to be working great. My plants are loving life.

Here we are in what it will be the final week... I am now at day 61 and I'm considering to cut at the end of this current week... in 2 days basically... I recently bought a scope that allows me to check the trichomes and I can see all milky ones, I also posted some videos of it, please guys let me know your thoughts... Beside this buds are hard like rocks and smell still pretty intense and I cannot wait to taste this short but bulky phenotype. I'll keep you guys posted if I harvest or not this week hoping to read some of your comments. So Stay tuned, stay high! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Little update at Day 63. I decided to give her few more days, so next week will be chopping her, this mostly cause I watered her last time on Day 61 and now I am basically just waiting for the soil to be dry. I count to put her in the dark for 48 hours at Day 65 and finally chop her at day 67, I cannot wait to update you for the harvesting part. I expect to reach 50/60 grams dry and I really hope to achieve that. Keep you guys posted! Stay tuned, stay high!

Hey, cannabis enthusiasts and connoisseurs! 🌿🔥 The journey with our Runtz F1 has been nothing short of legendary, and now we’re at the stage that every grower eagerly awaits—the trim and smoke report. This Runtz F1 has delivered beyond expectations, and I can’t wait to share the details with you. Let’s dive in! The Trim Process 🌾✂️ The trimming process was an experience in itself, filled with care and attention to detail. Here’s how it all went down: • Breaking Down the Branches 🌿: • First, we carefully broke down the plant into manageable branches, making sure to preserve the integrity of each bud. The structure of the Runtz F1 made this easy, with its dense, compact colas ready for precision trimming. • Trim Bin Magic ✂️: • Using a Trim Bin, we meticulously trimmed away the sugar leaves, leaving behind only the most beautiful, resin-coated buds. The Trim Bin isn’t just a tool; it’s a game-changer, allowing us to catch every last bit of precious kief that falls during the process. This extra kief is like a bonus for those special moments when you want to add a little something extra to your smoke. • Preserving Terpenes with Grove Bags 🛍️: • Once trimmed, the buds were placed into Grove Bags for curing. These bags are revolutionary in the cannabis world, designed to lock in terpenes and keep your buds fresh for the long haul. Unlike traditional jars, Grove Bags use a special TerpLoc technology that creates a perfect microclimate within the bag, balancing out oxygen and moisture levels. This means your buds cure evenly without the need for burping, preserving that incredible citrus terpene profile we’ve come to love from the Runtz F1. The Legendary Smoke 🌬️🔥 Now, let’s talk about the smoke—because this is where the Runtz F1 truly shines. • Flavor Explosion 🍊🍋: • The moment you take your first inhale, you’re hit with a symphony of citrus flavors. It’s like walking through a citrus grove with the sun shining down—notes of oranges, tangerines, and lemons come through strong, each one distinct yet harmoniously blended. But the magic doesn’t stop there; an underlying hint of vanilla sneaks in on the exhale, rounding out the flavor with a creamy, smooth finish. It’s an experience that dances on your palate, leaving you craving more. • Aroma 🌿🌸: • The smell is just as captivating as the flavor. As soon as you open the Grove Bag, the room fills with that zesty citrus aroma, complemented by a subtle sweetness from the vanilla undertone. It’s the kind of smell that makes you pause and appreciate the craft that went into growing this plant. • The Effects 🌟: • The effects of the Runtz F1 are as balanced as its flavor profile. Expect an initial wave of uplifting energy—perfect for daytime use or when you need a creative boost. As the high settles in, it mellows into a relaxed, yet focused state. It’s the best of both worlds: energizing without being overwhelming, and calming without knocking you out. This makes it an ideal strain for those who want to stay productive while still enjoying a potent, flavorful smoke. Final Thoughts and Invitation 🎥✨ The Runtz F1 has proven itself to be a true connoisseur’s strain—a perfect blend of flavor, aroma, and effects that’s both complex and satisfying. This was a journey that showcased the importance of patience, precision, and care, from germination all the way to the final cure. If you want to dive deeper into the entire process, from the first week of veg to the final trim, I’ve documented it all on my YouTube channel. Join me there for a closer look at how this incredible strain came to life, and learn more about the tips and techniques I used to bring out the best in these plants. Thank you to everyone who’s been part of this journey, from the community to the amazing brands like Gro Diaries, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Kannabia, and more. Your support and tools have been invaluable. Remember, the magic is in the details—so never stop learning, growing, and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

I turned the autopots on Monday and the plants are really thriving. They are growing super fast and the soil mix seems to be performing well. They have just had pH 6.4 water from the water reservoir. I have tied and bent them twice since Monday but they bouce back so fast. I have also turned in th airdomes , buried at the bottom of the pots this week, so let's see what they can do. Plenty of defoliation to expose lower branches , it always amazes me how quick the removed leaves are replaced by little tops. Day two flower more pictures added. Loads of defoliating this week and tied them all down again yesterday.

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 A lot to talk about this week.. Got my lights installed and oh my have they grown. Royal Gorilla has taken a major growth spirt this week, new growth everywhere and getting taller. I spread her out a bit doing some LST. She took it great and ket growing. Amazed with how these lights are working for them. Most likely will do some defoliation next week to clear some space, more light penetration and have the main colas grow. Happy with how this girl bounced back, she had time to recover when they were all under the 150W CFL... and now she's at an even height with the others. Watering every other day.. Hope your week goes as great or better than mine, have a good one growers!

During week 3 all plants are growing well inside the Growfor.Life-Closet and have a healthy green color. The latest addition: Double Dutch plant #3 (from Serious Seeds) is behind the rest, but also doing well. On Day 18 the biggest three plants, Double Dutch plant #1 and #2 and OG-Kush have gotten so big that a first round of defoliation was necessary. I do this in order to avoid big leaves touching each other and causing dampness to condensate between the leaves, which in turn can attract fungus and mold. Therefore i take off all the big fan leaves starting from the bottom of the plant and only leave the top two fan leaves on the plant. Now the air can flow freely through the canopy again and no leaves are touching and no dampness can condensate. The plants are still getting no extra nutrients, since the PLAGRON Grow-Mix I use should still have plenty in it. I only use RHIZOTONIC from CANNA one time in order to enhance the root-production. Now at this stage you already can clearly see differences between Double Dutch (from Serious Seeds) and OG-Kush (from Humboldt Seeds). The leaf shape is different (smaller and more pronounced fingers on the leaves of OG-Kush) and also the growth pattern (more like Indica in Double Dutch). On Day 19 I decide to do some LST (=low stress training) in order to train the 3 biggest plants into a bushier form. This is necessary, because the Growfor.Life-Closet is limited in height and I want the plants to fill out the whole area well with budding sites. I use stiff insulated copper-wire (standard electrical wire, pieces of appr. 30 cm length) and bend small arches, which I then carefully place over the top-part of a side-branch and push the open ends of the wire downwards into the soil so it holds the branch in place, while its bent outwards away from the main stem. This way I 'fan-out' the lowest 4 side-branches, so they are growing upwards at places where the light can reach them better. (see in detail in video) All plants respond well to the LST and turn their leaves and tips of the side-branches towards the light again until the next day. At day 19 the plants are now almost 20 cm tall, therefore I also decide to switch to 12/12 hours of light/darkness now in order to induce flowering. I change the program of the Growfor.Life-Closet from the standard-grow-mode (=18 hours of light per day) to the custom-flowering-program (12/12 hours of light, where I can choose the time when the lamps turn on). Now the plants will grow slower until they start to flower. I LOVE THE Growfor.Life-Closet, its sooooooooooooo BEAUTIFUL and soooooooooooooooo SILENT, a landmark technical development in my opinion! This is growing made stealthy and effortless, GROWING OF THE 21st CENTURY!

Still week 12 changed to 12/12 on day 90, thought my system is working properly now and nutrient solution seems to be alright now.. maybe it can improve but its fine for now. They are growing ridiculous fast even when its not in perfect conditions, im definitely staying with rdwc the stem of this plant is about 3-4 cm big wich is insane before flower

Good evening my fellow growers! So, another Thursday night comes, meaning another week starts in this diary😎 As a balance from last week, I'd like to underline the beginning of LST and defoliation applied in the plant, so far with success. Had a little struggle with RH and temps, by getting the lights a little too close from the plants. Lesson learnt and problem solved! Day 29 4/6 - #1 - Love to push her around! Not sure who's enjoying it more, if me or the plant. Looks happy with all the twists, and I believe this will be the last week of veg. 10 day tops I'd say. She's a heavy drinker for the size, and loves some good misting before turning the lights on. Moving the light even upper, brought me lower temps and higher RH: Temps from 24c to 20c, and RH from 40% to 50%. Much better. Here's also a video from the grow, how everything looks today during lights off period. Enjoy! Day 30 5/6 - #1 today was just another day of growth. Actually apart from observing it during the day, haven't done really anything to it. Looks like has enough water still, looks like the branches are coming out nice and evenly, covering for now the surface of the pot. Today also started to feel her stink. Finally! This only indicates me she's getting ready to flower very, very soon. In the tent, today was the best 'weather' ever, I'm super happy with that 😅 Temps were between 18 off and 25 on, RH between 73% off and 40% on. Day 31 6/6 - #1 today's her first month, since dropped in the water. Wohoo! 😎 Had another look to her, make sure all branches are looking good, with proper exposure and re-tied it again here and there to adjust her and make her even on top. Removed a few more leaves on the way and it's looking great! Had a big time watering (with nutrients), a little over a liter and was also mist in all foliage before lights going on. Temps were very good again! Rh with 79% max and 52% min and temps from 25 to 17. Nice uh? 😎 Day 32 7/6 - #1 So, after the 1st month anniversary celebrations (ahah), today was training and defoliation day. Between today and tomorrow will do quite a defoliation as she's giving signs of starting flowering stage very soon. When it comes to the plant, I rearranged her first a bit to optimize the light exposure in all budsites, then leaves down. For the first time in this plant, I fed her plain tap water, with a 6.4 ph. Tried to simulate a rainy day as much as possible by misting her and the medium. I like to give her a flush in between stages, when changing to flowering nutrients. Temps as stable inside with 16 min and 26 max. RH from 52% to 76% Day 33 8/6 - #1 What a nice reaction she had from last night training and defoliation! She went upwards and looks so much better. You can tell she's stretching now and showing some little pistils. After having a look around, just took the rest of the leaves I'd planned to and she's finally ready to flower. Even her scent is getting stronger, a very nice tropical/mango/passion fruit kick when the tent is opened. What a delight!😎 Today I'll give her a light feed again, to get this lady back on track and will wait for another day to come. It's very nice to observe the strecthing phase, as you can see them growing almost by the hour eheh Temps today were 29 max, 21 min and RH from 71% to 39% (values are higher today as I let the humidifier empty for a couple hours) Day 34 9/6 - #1 She's full on stretching, in 48h grew more than 10cm, which I find incredible. I did a few more touches on the branches, now is the time to make them ready and give all the light they need in every bit of them. Today she didn't smell so much, like yesterday, but I'm sure she's focusing on growing delicious bud right now. Can't wait to have a taste of it 😄 No watering today, going to save that for the morning. I'll just give her a light mist to keep things fresh and humid in the grow. Tomorrow is the last day of this week, and I'm planning to start with flowering schedule and nutrients from tomorrow. Temps and RH recorded today: 26c - 18c 76% - 41% Day 35 10/6 - General: This lady continues growing at a very nice rhythm. She's opening all her arms to light and I foresee a good flowering stage. Techniques: After observing her under the lights, decided to remove some more leaves to maximise exposure. All light is needed right now. Feeding: Good watering, almost 1.5l with balanced ph water, and started introducing flowering nutrients, at a very small scale, and went up 0.5ml on the grow nutrients. let's see what happens, but as I write, lights went up again for 4 hours and they look great, showing no signs of stress on anything like it. Smell: Still getting there, it's more intense inside the tent under the lights, a light breeze comes from her, but nothing compared to the power of her younger sister #3 from the other grow diary I'm writing. Temps and RH recorded today: 28c - 18c 60% - 37% And that's it! This week is done, tomorrow we start a new one, which I'll consider the first of the flowering period. This was a very exciting week where the results of the LST started to show a little more and better, did a heavy defoliation during the week, and saw her growing a lot. I'm impressed with that and curious to see the next coming days and weeks until she stops growing to produce more of the fat buds we love. That's all, see you tomorrow!
