WEEKLY UPDATES:
9/20- 💥BOOM!💥 Week Six of flower is here and my girl's in high gear, stacking her flowers and pumping out trichomes!
Today I watered her with 1.5g de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+ added, then ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉. I turned her pot and plucked a couple of yellow shade leaves...the basic daily maintenance.
9/22- I didn't water her yesterday as she looked great and was 'praying' hard. Today she was given 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ which I gave her through her drip pan (bottom chuggin) and I also gave her pot a turn.
She continues to have a great deep green color that is beautifully contrasted by the snow white trichomes piling up on them! Her height has not really increased but she is extremely bushy with tight node spacing which will necessitate plucking some leaves to keep the light penetrating into her canopy.
9/24- We're getting close to wrapping up Week Five of flower in a couple of days and she'll be past the half-way point with the most exciting weeks yet to come!
I didn't water yesterday and today I went ahead and Top Dressed her with 2 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Gold Premium 4-4-4, 1/2 cup Down To Earth Bio-Fish, 1/3 cup Down To Earth High Phosphorus Bat Guano and 2 cups of Worm Castings.
I watered in the Top Dress with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ and let her enjoy her meal! 😜
9/26- After her heavy watering on the 24th I didn't water yesterday and when I checked her today at 'lights on' and she still had some weight to her pot and her leaves were praying hard so I held off on watering today and will hit her tomorrow with her usual 0.75g watering.
~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower and i bought a new ph stick this week ,
i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too ,
i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , this lady is nice and compact and tight lots of leaves that I had too remove too open up her bud sites , stretch was also minimal ,

Auto Banana Kush is growing good under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2. She was a pain to get started, but is off and running now. I did have a minor ph swing but I corrected it over last day or two. She got her first lst today, and her root tips pruned. Thank you Medic Grow, Athena, and Weed Seeds Express. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱

Week 16 Flower: Embracing the Flush & Celebrating the Shine 🌟
It’s week 16 of flower, and a pivotal moment in the grow journey! This week, we’re diving deep into the flush phase, a critical step in achieving those clean, flavorful harvests. 🌿 Switching over to just water with 0.5 ml/L of System Clean marks the start of what I like to call the “So Cal Flush.” We’ll break down the whys behind this practice, the benefits of flushing, and how it sets the stage for smooth, aromatic results. Let’s demystify this important phase together and make sure everyone feels confident implementing it in their own grows.
The Room is Glowing ✨
Every plant in the garden is unique, shining bright under the ThinkGrow LEDs! 🌈 Here’s the lineup of what’s happening:
• Green Papaya: The frost queen herself, dripping with trichomes, setting the frostiest example.
• Punch Pie: Claiming the crown for the fattest buds in the room—absolute monsters in size and density!
• Gorilla Melon: A beauty with mesmerizing red reflections dancing across her leaves.
• Papaya Zoap: Still stealing the show with snowy whites and pristine structure.
This week was a photographer’s dream—I pulled out my Sony and Nikon cameras to capture some jaw-dropping close-ups and unique angles. I’m sharing these shots to highlight the sheer diversity and beauty of these genetics.
Tech in Action: TM+ Pro App 📱
Let’s talk tech for a moment. The TrolMaster ecosystem paired with the TM+ Pro App has been an absolute game-changer. Capturing and sharing real-time data and alerts, it provides peace of mind and full control from anywhere. Whether you’re a seasoned grower or just starting out, this tool simplifies and elevates the entire experience. I’ll share some videos from the app this week to show exactly how it’s helping me stay on top of the grow like never before.
P.S. — A Word on the Ecosystem 🌐
The TrolMaster system is proving to be a standout solution for growers of all levels. Its intuitive design and easy configuration make it perfect for beginners, while offering the advanced customization and precision that experienced growers crave. Whether it’s managing lights, fans, or sensors, this ecosystem has you covered with simplicity and reliability.
A Big Thank You ❤️
None of this would be possible without the incredible support from this community, my sponsors, and Grow Diaries itself. Massive thanks to TrolMaster, ThinkGrow LED, Aptus Holland, ProMix Soil, Cannakan, and the incredible seed banks for making this journey so rewarding. And, of course, a heartfelt shoutout to YOU—the followers, lovers, and haters alike. Your energy keeps this mission alive. 🌟
Let’s keep growing, learning, and sharing the love. 💚 See you next week when we explore even more as we inch closer to harvest day! 🌱 #GrowWithMe #ControlledEnvironment #PositiveVibesOnly

Day 175
Flowering is progressing and the weather has cooled down.
I'm wondering when I'll start cutting back on fertilizer.
I think I'll do it for another week or two.
There's just a little rain this week.
I think the buds are small, but they're dense.

So here we are, at the end, a few months later. I was so happy that I'll finally grow a plant without any training at all, just to see the full and uninterrupted genetic expression. It was a blast to grow her, I can't wait for the plant to dry and give it a few weeks of curing but she smells great already.
I also wanted to thank Divine Seeds for the contest strain and Bio Tabs for great Bio fertilizer. You can judge for yourself because I'll let the photographs speak for themselves.
Speaking of photography, I went with a moody style this time, because she has a great structure. I've trimmed her a little bit here and there and I've left a few big fan leaves on both sides for better looks.
The big fan leaves reflect the light so well, it make the whole plant shine. Okay now head to the gallery and let all that sink in ;)
XOXO

week intel:
we reached the peak of flowering stage and need to cause a little more e.c stress from this week so e.c stress is twice a week
i reduced the amount of Nitrogen and calcium and stopped feeding silicate in other hand i raised the amount of base nutrient and booster
short story version: more K & P - less N
stresses :
a little E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 twice a week from this week
feeding:
i feed them 3 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 822 ppm - 1.6 e.c to cause a little stress.
day 3 : i feed them low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 525 ppm - 1 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused.
day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again
guide of the week :
from this week we can cause more E.C stresses.
e.c stress if done correctly is one of the very few ways to increase quality in all aspects ( color , aroma , taste , bud structure , resin contents ) but if you over do it , listen carefully brother : it can reduce quality in every aspect so always look for signs and never reach the red line.

So I harvested the top half of the canopy at day 58 while leaving the bottom half to finish up for another week. Looks like the best yield so far running for my runtz muffin grows.
Also dropped the water temp at night to promote colouration of the buds which seems to be working very well.

Every has gone absolutely smooth so far with growing this girl. Full 8 weeks old today & 21 days into flower. She has a fairly strong sweet smell & her buds continue to bulk up.
As I just harvested 1 plant , it's created a bit of space for me to put her into the Flowering tent for 12 hrs each day & move her back to veg for the remaining 8 hrs, as I'm running 780watts in the flower tent, hopefully this will bulk them up more. Simple L.S.T. grow grew her out a few nodes & bent her over & tied her down, doing a similar thing with the side branches. Then I've just let her go & do her own thing & haven't done anything other than feed her, haven't really had to do any defoliation as there's not that many leaves on her naturally.

Another good week. Watered them twice. I'm not planning on feeding them again. A little defoliation. I definitely think they are in the last 2 weeks before harvest.
Still seeing some nutrient burn developing on the leaves. I don't think I watered enough through the whole grow! I'd love to hear opinions on this!
Took some videos of the buds with an iPhone 12 at 6X magnification. Decent quality!
Otherwise, still looking to successfully harvest these plants! Thinking about the next grow. Probably going to be Auto Strawberry Cheesecake and Auto Anesthesia.
Peace!

Hello Diary,
What a trip.
I read a lot about the new F1 hybrid strains when they came out and was really interested to see how quickly they would develop.
And indeed, in the end I can say that I am very satisfied with the Medusa F1.
I planted three seeds but one did not sprout so two remained on the farm.
The first Medusa was ready to harvest 68 days after the seed was placed in the ground, the second Medusa stayed a week longer.
All the time the vegetation and flowering grew happily and contentedly.
I didn't feed them too many additional supplements and they grew as if they were on steroids.
After harvesting the first plant, I put it in a cardboard box to dry to protect it from light since the second plant was still on the farm.
Drying lasted 14 days, after which I trimmed the flowers and put them in jars.
The final result is 116 grams of dried flowers.
Medusa F1 #1 - 47 g.
Medusa F1 #2 - 69 g.
In the end, I can only honestly recommend everyone to try growing this great strain.
Thank you all for your support and see you soon with new F1 strains.
