So this is the week I found out all about PPFD, PAR and LUX, basically all the basic info one needs to understand how lighting works. So I brought down the 300W LED I have down to 18cm from the plants since that's the spot where I get 1000 PPFD. Since I don't have a quantum meter to measure this directly, I instead measured the LUX output of the LED light with a free app on my phone and then converted the LUX to PPFD using an online converter. Also bought real nutes, more specifically the GHE Flora Duo 500ml tri-pack. As a result I also switched up the feeding schedule, so now I'm feeding them every three days, and doing water only every three feeds. A bit late in the process, but hey, first grow! 😅 Finally, the first amber thricomes are showing, yay! 😍

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

WEEK 8 (Day50-56) Week No. 8 went quite smoothly. One of the plants still has a slight deficiency due to the intense light, while the other has stretched way too aggressively. At one point, it was almost 15 cm taller than its neighbor, which I didn’t like at all. So, I took a rather bold approach. Using supercropping, I brought the plant back to approximately the same height as the others. I bent the shoots and stabilized them in the new position using plastic training clips and some tape. This was done just before the photos were taken, so they don’t look their best at the moment. However, I’m confident it will work out well. Other than that, I haven’t changed much. The lighting remains at 24 hours, and I slightly increased the amount of fertilizer again.

Cada vez me gusta más esta variedad, fácil de cultivar, muy ramificadas y acepta las podas muy bien, haciendo poda de bajos y poda apical, he conseguido, en algunas plantas no en todas, igualar las ramas en altura con facilidad. Ya están apareciendo los primeros pistilos en 2 de las plantas, aspecto muy a tener en cuenta a la hora de seleccionar una madre, como ya comente cloné las 9 plantas (2 clones x planta) y me quedaré con una madre si me termina convenciendo su calidad.

Hello Growmies, As we navigate through week 9, the crescendo of the Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrids’ flowering odyssey is near. Nestled within the verdant grove alongside the Epic Buzz and Red Banana Pudding strains, our Watermelon Candy troupe is displaying the telltale signs of impending harvest. The plants exude a melody of sweetness, with trichomes glistening like morning dew under the subdued glow of the IR lights, revealing a spectacular array of colors not typically seen in the standard lighting spectrum. Despite the compact nature of the buds, which is a result of the 12/12 light cycle they've been flourishing under, the density of these floral clusters cannot be overstated—like tiny, aromatic asteroids. Plant #1 continues its reign with a prolific bud structure that's nothing short of mesmeric. Plants #2 and #3 exhibit a bounty of floral nodes, each one a testament to the bounteous yields that are just a fortnight away. Their canopies spread wide, a testament to the cultivar's vigorous growth habit and the attentive care they’ve received. Though the buds might not break records in size, their solidity is remarkable—a testament to the precise environmental controls maintained by our trusty TrolMaster. The buds are rock-solid, heavy with resin, and brimming with the promise of potent effects and delectable flavors. Our nutritional regimen remains unchanged, delivering the essential elements for these final, crucial stages of bloom. The meticulous oversight of our automated systems ensures that our Watermelon Candy Hybrids are relishing in their peak conditions, as we nudge them gently toward full maturation. With a harvest on the horizon, the anticipation is palpable. These final days are a mixture of excitement and the bittersweet acknowledgment that this chapter is closing. Soon, we’ll be able to savor the fruits of our labor, a sweet reward for the weeks of dedication and camaraderie in our grow community. Until then, we'll continue to marvel at the transformation, watching as each plant fulfills its genetic destiny, soon to provide joy and relief in its final form. Stay lifted, Salokin

Okay so this week things have started to really take off in every way. Buds glistening and fattening up more by the day. Extreme resin production on the cereal milk, sugar and fan leaves on the cereal milks are COATED in trichomes. The wedding cakes also have a fair resin production and covered in trichomes and are seriously starting to fatten up! The smell is very pungent and come out of nowhere compared to last week. The wedding cake has a sweet, earthy Almost vanilla like smell and the cereal milk has a very pungent cookies sweet smell with hints of fruityness. So far so good cant wait to see how these turn out. Been told they are 8-9 week flowering strains from other people who have grown the same Cuttings so not long left!

Day 54 and I think we're on track to harvest some time next week. I've decided not keep any of these as a mom, the back left one has some potential but non really seem like good hash plants. I'll jar test each to make sure but all have really greasy trichromes.

June 28 - They are doing great, We switched to the recommended amount of nutrients for flowering, Also 2 air stones I ordered have come in so now those are on 24/7 with the nutrient water in a 5 gallon bucket. June 29 - Still just growing away, I am still feeding roughly 3L per plant of nutrient water every 24-36hr depending on how dry they feel. June 30 - Totally forgot to take pictures/videos today. I gave them there daily watering and they are still just growing away. They are in flower now I believe! July 1 - Awesome to see this amount of progression. Tons of hairs and a decently even canopy. There is a small smell coming from in the room! July 2 - Again I forgot to take pictures, But as always they are still just growing away. so far so good! July 3 - Tons of growth and they are starting to become uneven. I don't have a ton of time so I think I will leave them for another week before doing some LST or HST. Tons of colas forming, lots of hairs and they are starting to have a heavier smell! So far so good! July 4 - Same thing as yesterday, still growing away, Ive turned the lights up to 100% now and I have removed the SF-1000 as I needed it for another project! (be sure to check out my other diary's which I will be uploading today!

🗓️ Week 12 – Flower Week 8 ✅ (Late Flower) 🔹 General The plants have now entered deep late flower. Buds are gaining more density and resin, and the aroma is intensifying day by day. For Cherry MAC Muffin, fruity-sweet notes are becoming dominant 🍒✨ 🔹 Feeding After a longer phase of reduced EC, feeding has been increased again. Input: 1.65–2.0 EC / pH 6.3 Runoff has built up to ~3.0 EC, but remains stable – no signs of overfeeding or stress. No flushing yet – the final flush with Flawless Finish is planned in about a week 💧 🔹 Observations – Cherry MAC Muffin 🍒 Development: Densest buds in the tent, very sticky and frosty 📏 Runoff EC: 3.0 ✅ Status: No stress symptoms despite the high EC – watering frequency slightly reduced to maintain balance
