My Rainbow Melon plant is an absolute beast! It's definitely tied for the biggest plant in the tent, and it's by far the smelliest. The aroma is so strong and sweet, it's incredible. I can't wait to see how this one turns out! Okay, This past week has been absolutely fantastic! The weather has been incredible, and I've been able to keep the windows open almost the entire time. My plants are thriving in the humidity, and the VPD has been perfect. Everything just feels so balanced and in check.

Bring on the flowers lol I think these ladies are finally done stretching so I introduced the co2 to the tent which is just brewers yeast and sugar mixed with warm water. LOL this tent gives me anxiety hahah I dont like the canopy like this but she is very healthy along with all the other ladies. The only thing I can think of is I did not have the bigger fan in this time. Wonder if that was the cause.

Day 106 12/25/2021 being of a new week and this will be more than likely the last week this lady gets any nutrients thinking Wednesday. After that will start flush with collected rain water. After checking trichomes they were about 85% cloudy about 10% clear and 5% amber which is right where she should be since the end is coming fast. Day 110 12/29/2021- Started flush today and will continue to just feed rain water until next Wednesday. Will cut her down next Friday 01/07/2022.

Days 33-35 Both ladies have been transplanted and moved into the Veg tent! If you look in the video you can see the setup. Both are in 10.5"x10.5" square nursery pots approx 3Gal each. Both were put into happy frog soil using azos and recharge during transplant. I have them under an optic 8+ with a cob as supplemental lighting Day 37: A light defoliation day today, especially for #1. I removed all the mature fan leaves that were blocking any bud sites or nodes at all. Essentially leaving the top 2 mature leaves in tact. I honestly did not want to do this! It was heart wrenching to mutilate such a beautiful naturally growing plant 🤷‍♂️ practicality wins in the end tho. I removed the 2 oldest lowest fan leaves from #2 as well. More for sanitation reasons. They werent8blocking anything but the uh were dragging in the dirt and starting to fade anyhow. I actually kept 1 leaf. My 1st time ever doing this. The leaf is so neat, overlapping itself. *transplant update day 37* In my very green opinion they look to be struggling a bit with the transplant. I like to wet my medium prior to placing the rootball in, sometimes it's great and the roots chase it. Sometimes they get a little water logged and it takes a week b4 watering. I'm thinking it's the latter in this scenario. Day 38; #1's top fan leaves are rolling in again. I figured it was heat but the surface area doesn't get above 78° which from what I've read is fine. Maybe it's a strain issue? Looks very imdica, ma uh be is accustomed to a cooler climate? Day 39: I lowered #1 about a foot further from the light. She is still all curled up tho. It isn't heat. I watered them at transplant per my usual routine. 2 other plants stranded extremely bad and these 2 are acting goofy. I probably over did it that day Day 42 and 43 In day 42 CMOG #1 needed some water. It's her 1st drink since transplant. #2 on the other hand is drinking a bit less. I also took 2 upper fan leaves off #1(I hate doing it, but gotta promote those bud sites!! Day 43nothing really to report. I videotaped myself plucking a couple lower fan leaves. I'm raising the fan a bit more above #2 to keep wind stress down. Day 44: 🚨⛈️Emergency!!⛈️🚨 Power is out! My light cycle is as follows: on at 6pm off at 12pm. Its 2:45am right now and the power has gone out. Which was wierd because it went out b4 the storm hit! It was fricken midday when the outtage happen!! My poor Chocolate Mint OG 😖 keeping humididty down is gonna be hard and my grow is very far from and natural light source even if they were on the same cycle as nature 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️ if ur reading this say a quick prayer! Thanks!!🙏✌️🌱

All looking amazing, had a couple days were the humidity went mental and I didn't notice, so got a little mold developing on couple of buds. Removed the affected buds and sorted the hummidity. Fingers crossed that's the last of that. Now I see these wierd little bugs swimming in my run off. Not seen anything like that before, so I am hoping its not a larvae from something more problematic. Just waiting for those trichs to go brown then Ima cut it all down, gotta be soon now I am sure.

Slowly cruising and getting closer to the end, they all reacted very well to the feeding and look rejuvenated. Had some aphids on the GDP but I caught them early and sprayed them with some homemade soapy water with essential oils mixture,so it shouldn't be a problem moving forward plus I spotted some natural allies (ladybugs) The Runtz has the biggest buds and looks like it will finish first The G13 has the best and strongest smell

Yo yo yo what's poppin It's day 2 in week 7 some more pics incoming this week Triple G and Wedding Gelato is fire. North Thunderfuck has the most weight and doing also great Hulk Berry is a sativa and will need a little bit longer. It smells already gasoline diesel berry like. The smell of Triple G is the best I've ever smelled. It's so fruity and has trichomes everywhere Day 46 today and I started feeding water only. I guess 14 to 16 days and they are ready to harvest. All plants do really good. Day 49 every plant got flushed today. 30 Liter clear water for every plant.

Was really worried the whole time through out my grow as I am a Newbie and this was my first grow. Thanks for all the help provided by users on growndiaries. Much appreciated. Had great result from my solo cup. 12.6 grams of dried bud. Time for curing and let that smell build up. Fingers crossed will taste better but smells amazing. Zesty smell when crushed. More confident for my next grow. Hopefully will be more fun and relaxing growing.

From the 15th day I start adding half the norm of Hesi TNT Complex 2ml/L, we test with 210 ppm so as not to burn the roots. On the 18th day, I moved the plant into a larger pot and watered it with half the recommended amount of nutrients and of course, transplanted the plant into a larger pot. On the 21st day, I did LST (Low-Stress Training).

This FB Auto is reported to be "Super-reliable and incredibly resistant. This cultivar inherited all the best qualities from her parents, making it a fool-proof strain even for beginner growers." So far, so good. Gorilla cookies is growing great fresh, new soil from Fox Farm and water. I'll have to keep a close watch on the weather this week. The forecast for the next 10 days calls for 7 days of rain! Ii can't believe it has rained sooo much this Spring. I will have to make sure Gorilla cookies doesn't get soaked. Stay tuned, like and comment!! I will respond to ya:)

***Attention*** Please note that if you only read my entries at the beginning of each week, I try to post pictures daily, with note updates as well. ******************************************************************************************************* Feb 24, 2018: I've decided to have a positive outlook on this grow, despite all the errors I made, and problems unstable genetics provided me. Though my crop is heavily seeded, the trichome production seems on point, I should end up with some decent smoke. It's a humbling lesson to learn, don't relax your attention at all, these wonderful plants are capable of extraordinary things when improperly motivated. I’m excited to pop some Nirvana seeds in a couple months but until then I’ll try to get the most from this crop. ... Feb 23, 2018: Just another day, might just do straight water feeding the next few in a row since I'm finally seeing some tip burn. Considering I've been going pretty hard with the solution ppm i'm surprised I've not seen burn before, I started in FFOF so soil was hot from the start. ... Feb 22, 2018: Super depressing news folks, it seems my crop seeding is more extensive than previously thought. I am just disappointed in myself for not catching the plant throwing sacks earlier. Even after countless hours researching, it seems that once again I am doomed to learn through experience. hopefully these seeds mature and then finish the buds so I can harvest. I knew the risks of growing bag seed and am not paying for it. Can't wait to start the next round. My next round will be seeds from Nirvana, their AK-48 and Aurora Indica. ... Feb 21, 2018: Did a bit more staking, with that thick canopy of branches was hard to see a few branches drooping. Managed to bend/break a branch with a golf ball sized bud, not sure if the stalk will heal itself this far into flower, but I clothes pinned it straight and will monitor. still seeing lots of clear and no amber, still a ways to go. Tested a lower bud on the plant that got heavily seeded and found the high quick, and just a hair racy but much better than the first tester a couple weeks ago. Only have taken 2 buds for testing 2 weeks apart, being this is my first grow I wanted to experiment and see how the high changes as the flowers mature. ... Feb 20. 2018: Watered with 6.5PH RO water with 2mL/gal Cal-Mag. Nothing much else to comment on, just watching the buds grow. One plant is going to be finishing much earlier than the others, not sure what to do about that since i was plannig on using my grow tent as my drying area. More colas are starting to lean, as of now they are propped up by the canopy, but will probably have to stake a few eventually. Getting a few orange hairs, which i've read can indicate less than 3wks to go, which makes sense as that would be almost 8 weeks flowering. Im not making any decision based on time, as the plant will let me know when it's ready, but knowing when to start my water only feeds is helpful. ... Feb 19, 2018: Alrighty guys, girls, and zimzers we are staring week 12 from seed and we are 32 days since first sign of pistils. I am now feeding full flowering nutrients (Fox Farm Tiger Bloom) and the girls seem to really like it, I've seen no evidence of leaf tip burn, to avoid burn in an all soil grow I'm increasing the nutrient concentration gradually, waiting at least 3-waterings before increasing from last watering. I've only had to stake up 2-3 top cola's, as the plant they are on is in front and doesn't' have as much support from surrounding plants. Although these plants were grown from seeds form the same bud, the different phenotypes are generating vastly different smells. I try to bump and move the plants as little as possible, every time I move anything the air is filled with a musky greasy and sometimes fruity pungent odor! **As a side note, I would like to point out that I have done almost no defoliation, the under canopy you see has developed naturally due to the plants dropping fan leaves as necessary. I have done some pruning of lower flowering branches, but these branches contained no fan leaves, only resource draining under canopy bud sites and branches.**
