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. 🌟

Day 43. Light is on max output, heat enormous and they RUN !!!! thought intensity will stop them a bit , but i think i do only worse ... We have +30 heatwave in UK, i live in attic , so for 4 more days everything will be out of control.
Watered today. 6.3 phed water.
I love simple and affordable Mars Hydro products, if you can cope with heat TSL2000 can do magic in your tent !
Will update after heat wave us over. Should be in 4 days back to +20 ;)))
Day 45. They GROW !!!! Distance is insanly small, but i have 30 cm of space left, wont move light for a week, then i will try to have 20 cm at least again.
Planing last top up, need two more waterings before it, so it should be on last day of this or first of next week.
Thinking to take down all LST at that time, need pots to breath better, too thin fabric, they dont keep form.
Day 47. Drink every two days !!! 4 liters goes to nothing !!! Huge, still streching, tops almost rubbing TS2000, heat 30 inside, humidity 65-68 ..... will need heavy clearing again !!! Devil is looking droopy because was just watered.
Happy Growing !!!!

Never topped or trained this lady because I’ve planted her 3 weeks later than the others. So happy about her, even because the delayed flowering time of two weeks gave her the possibility to grow properly. With this structure after 5 weeks, now she’s ready to fly!

My Rainbow Saltz plant has some lighter green leaves, so I gave it a dose of calcium this week, hoping they'll darken up. One of the branches wasn't keeping up, so I pruned it off. Now the shape of the plant is perfect for fitting against the wall in the tent.
It's been a challenging week with the constant rain and ridiculously high humidity. Keeping things dry indoors has been a real struggle. Despite the weather, I managed to flip all my feminized photoperiod plants to flower this week. I'm hoping the switch will go smoothly, but with this humidity, it's going to be tough.

01/10/22 Everything is Going good, which means something bad is going to happen. Plants were 9 inches at the end of week 4 on day one of week 5 they were topped and defoliated which brought the height to 4.5 inches, So after the shock of having there tops removed they grew 4 inches in one week. Extremely happy I'm keeping track.01/13/22 Defoliated and LST'D the plants.01/14/22 Adjusted LST , removed all branches growing on the underside to allow for proper Growth of other branches. Fingers crossed this should be a decent harvest flipping on week 9.

These girls are packin! The most satisfying part of a grow for me is to see the fruits of my labour blossom into plump nuggets of dank joy! They are reacting to the flush in typical fashion. Phosphorus is running out of the fat indica fingers, creating a purple hue. The pheno on the left is a week ahead of the right side plant. At least. I could even see it going longer. Very excited for the range of effects in regards to sativa/indica ratio. A few amber trichromes here and there but the majority are developing a haze that will lead to the results seeking. Soon. We are almost there.

HUGE THANKS TO @MARSHYDROLED and @VIPARSPECTRALED!
New surge protectors/heavy duty timers/the good cords.
The LSD-25 itself looks similar to my first run with a very slow growth compared to the other 3 strains i have going now. It is from the same tester kit so I am expecting a small plant overall but the new lights will definitely give me more overall bud.
I have all my seedlings under the P1500 from Vipar as my veg light for the first few weeks to a month. It's SO nice to not have a blurple anymore, the light is way better in my room and on the eyes. The new diodes had every single seedling grow more in 6 hours than it did in the first 7 days under the blurp LED, EVEN the LSD-25. It had no hight to it before the Vipar went in.
While the other 3 are doing better, the LSD is still going to be one of my favourites. I can't wait to smell that earthy/varnish/citrus.
I noticed a bit of spotting on the Dark Devil in my other diary so I added some Hydrogen Peroxide to the spray bottle and it cleared up. All four have been getting constant spritzing from the spray bottle to keep humidity up.
Have no doubt the new lights will make the plant/overall yield.
Thanks for stopping in! Throw down a like and/or follow so i can return the favour 🙌

Flowering day 49

Hey guys :-)
All ladies look very healthy and delicious :-)
We're slowly getting closer to the end.
Watering was done twice this week, each time with 1.2 l (sewing materials see table above)
At the next watering there is a very light rinse with Clean Fruits so that the last nutrients can be slowly used up.
The trichomes are now checked every day.
I'm looking for my microscope with an app so I can take pictures of it 👍.
I wish you a lot of fun with the update and stay healthy 💚🙏🏻

The cursed sixth week, I wasn't careful enough. First, a branch broke off near the base, but it's still hanging on the stem and fighting for survival. Two days later, another branch broke, but I was able to fix it immediately with aluminium tape.
This strain is not ideal for my training. It grows too tall and the branches become very thick very quickly. Great genetics, but unfortunately not for me as I am very limited in terms of height.
I will make the best of it.

Great grow, great strain and a nice harvest. Only difference I would make is having more space and light for her as I had quiet a few strains running along side her. Well done BARNEYS farm. Thanks for the opportunity to grow her.

Starting to get some real buds now. Color in leaves changed within 3days. Had me super nervous I screwed up the plant. Thought I was dealing with a ph issue because of how early the leaves changed colors. Green spots on leaves are from me not turing down the light fast enough.

😻Week 4 is here already!! These are some CHUNKY girls lol.. There's certainly no lack of red spectrum with the SP-3000..our nodes are tight and the Bangers are praying around the clock since increasing their bloom supplements..no complaints to report is a great week, we were going to drop the Mars a few inches but figured we'd leave well enough alone, without a reliable light tester we have to read the plants and they couldn't seem happier atm..we're keeping their undercarriage bare so despite being packed in the tent, airflow seems great..not much else to report, awesome light, awesome genetics makes awesome week lol..thanks for dropping by and happy harvests Growmies! ❤️🌱💡😽💨

Shorter plants 13”, larger is 18”.
Beneficial nematodes and the sticky trap seem to have handled the gnat issue. I’m continuing to use nematodes after watering, and the traps will remain.
I did a little trimming but probably won’t do much more defoliation until the stretch is over.
This will probably be my last shower grow. I think it makes more sense to get a bigger space like a tent or build one and some more lights. It’s getting cramped in there. It’s also starting to reek.
I water about every 2-3 days using a 1/2 gallon jug to mix my nutes. I’m keeping ph close to 6.5 and ppms between 600-800. I don’t use nutes in every watering—it depends on how the plants look.
I do more frequent updates on Instagram @thefairybudmother.
