GORILLA MELON / 420FASTBUDS WEEK #12 OVERALL WEEK #2 FLOWER This week was another good week for this lady she doing her thing she's right about 2 feet tall 16 inches in width and she might be done stretching as she grown about 2 inches the last two weeks. This my first grow of a photosynthetic plant in a small container. Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! THANK YOU 420FASTBUDS!! BUDTRAINER.COM BUD CLIPS/BUD CUPS

week 4 of veg came much sooner than expected. she was already stretching from the lst. she had recovered that same day. december 14th was week 4 and also last day of veg.

Day 75 since seed and and day 5 since flipping to flower. New light came in last Wednesday so I did another round of light defoliation and LST before flipping. The new Spider Farmer G4500 light is AWESOME! LOVE IT! This plants has basically filled half of my 2x4 tent, essentially, filling up a 2x2 tent! I must say I've impressed myself by being able to keep her healthy this long. I hope she rewards me very well I'm the end! Let me know what yall think or what I can improve on.

Obvious indicas starting to bulk. sativas still stretching.. Started upping additives for resin and terpene production. Not sure if it's worth it on unknown strains, but giving it a go anyway.. I know what these seeds produce in soil, so should be able to compare end product.. Getting problems in the kratky..Changed over to using vitaponix (bought a sample pack) - and am getting what looks like root rot.. Ai is now telling me it could be a good time to lower my Canna a to 2.5mlpl and keep b at 4mlpl. to lower nitrogen intake. give that a go next week. Have combined week 4&5 pics.

*LOS FERTILIZANTES SON HACIA LAS OTRAS PLANTAS NO TERMINADAS NO LA QUE SE CORTO ESA SOLO AGUA* *reemplazo bio bloom por monster bloom como los dos son PK la planta se sobrefertiliza* semana 10 y se va de corte la primera contento de terminar mi primer diario entero en esta plataforma cogollos llenos de resina muy contento con la producción en 68 días desde germinación *la planta en total creo un poco menos que el doble de lo que se corto pero fui sacándoselo de a poco antes* ahora solo queda esperar secar y las otras que vienen en camino 70.85 gramos en humedo contando tallos y una hoja de viento por rama espero marcar unos 15 en solo cogollos y ya secos LST en las dos ramas principales de una de las que viene siguiente muy compacta en lo personal me gustan los cogollos con casi nada de hoja (de esto dependerá cuanto raspe en la garganta) por lo que el humo entra sin dejar ninguna molestia muy suave y sativo

La pandemia kush es la más avanzada y se le empezará a regar solo con agua al igual q la Trimosa x mimosa_1 La Trimosa x mimosa tiene un problema con absorción de agua, pero ya está siendo solucionado

Week 11 now and this beautiful Gelato Auto is starting to get thick.

On its full flush now, buds are coated in THC and the Aromas are beautiful, petty it was as planned 'seed to smoke in 60 days'. Run off was 108ppm on Saturday when introducing straight RO water. Will be chopping in the next 72 hours. . Chopped the girl down amd I must say, I'm impressed with her yield 💪 got shit loads of pocorns and lower bids which I'll be turning to hash.

Easy strain to grow, tolerant a high ppm. Very good smoke. Buds are not very dense.

First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to Dutch Passion for trusting me with the honor and pleasure of growing their Tropical Tangie. It's an incredible strain, and I can't wait to see what she brings to the table. So, shout out to @DutchPassion_Official and the Grow diaries Platform for making this journey possible! Now, let's talk about the germination process. I followed the typical seed germination method, placing the seed in water. And you won't believe it, within about 30 hours, she sprouted her tiny little taproot. It was like a magical moment, witnessing the start of a new life. After careful consideration, I decided it was time to move her into a small pot filled with Aptus Holland Mycor Mix. This is a special blend that contains beneficial mycorrhizal fungi, which form a symbiotic relationship with the plant roots, enhancing nutrient uptake and overall plant health. It's like giving my Tropical Tangie a team of underground helpers, ready to support her growth. But that's not all! To give her an extra boost, I added Aptus Holland Water Regulator, which helps optimize water absorption and distribution within the plant. And to kickstart her growth, I used the Micordrip from Aptus Holland as well, which provides essential microelements to support healthy development. It's like giving her a tailor-made nutrient cocktail for success. Now, let's talk about the plant guardians, the Ninja Legos! These little guys may seem like toys, but they are the unsung heroes of my garden. Not only do they bring a touch of whimsy and fun, but they are also masters at keeping bugs and bad energies away. They're like the silent protectors of my precious plants, ensuring a safe and harmonious growing environment. Plus, who doesn't love a good joke about Ninja Legos? So, my friends, here we are embarking on the Ninja Lego Tropical Run with Dutch Passion. It's a journey filled with love, passion, and the support of Aptus Holland as my sponsor. Together, we're creating something special. Stay tuned for more updates as we witness the growth and development of the magnificent Tropical Tangie. Thank you, Aptus Holland, for your support, and a big shout out to Dutch Passion for making dreams come true. Let the adventure begin! As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life<3 <3 <3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #dutchpassion #dogdoctorofficial #legoninjago #growerslove

Day 44: This afternoon I received the Air Pot and then I immediately mounted one and put in the soil a seed of Amnesia Haze Automatic of the Royal Queen bringing the total of the plants to 15: 8 Gorilla + 1 that has yet to germinate, 4 Cheese (2 large and 2 small) and an Amnesia Haze Auto all from Royal Queen Seeds + 1 x LSA Lemon Haze. At the moment I moved the small Lemon Haze under the new LED + CFL setup to provide a greater amount of direct light. Then under the 600w HPS lamp there are 12 plants and in the grow room 3, the Lemon Haze + 1 Gorilla and 1 Amnesia awaiting germination. However, I decided to leave the grow room open. The crops are close and I connected all three lamps to a single timer with cycle 19/5. Also with this system the plants in the grow room will receive more air and therefore more oxygen, carbon dioxide etc. and a small amount of light coming from the HPS lamp. Day 48: The six Gorillas in advanced bloom have stopped growing in height and have started to form larger gems. The final height of the 8 Gorillas is about 150 centimeters for 3 specimens, and 120 centimeters for the remaining 5 plants of which 2 are in late flowering. The production of numerous sugar leafs is also a sign that the final flowering phase has begun. I think I can collect the first cola in two or three weeks. The sweet smell of resin in this phase begins to become more intense. In this session I photographed the plants one by one before placing them in the final position. In this last position I have rebuilt all the plants, including the two Big Cheese.

Is a low budget Indoor, with 50x50x1.40 cm made by me :P idem the leds, are COB 50w each one

📋Comment I do like this strain, I wouldn't have joined this competition if I didn't like it. 📋 Data Seed to havest=105 days. Veg time=28 days. Flower time=77 days. Wet weight=609g Dry weight=50g 📋 Smoke report I started trimming after she had been hanging for 14 days. Had time to trim 30g and did the remainder the night after. The buds went into groove bags on 6/5/25. The trim is frosty so I'll do a hash run, there was only 4g of larfy buds which will go into my hash run. 25/6/25 Had a sample, by far the strongest runtz i have grown. Highly impressed, 📋Grow stats for GDG 23 #1 Runtz=50g #2 Fat Bastard=86g Total=136g Lights on. 20hrs×7days=140hrs 18hrs×21days=378hrs 12hrs×77days=924hrs Total hours=1442hrs Light power=147.73Kw Rad power=105.69Kw Extractor=34.12Kw 4 gang=47.02Kw Top fan=17.72Kw Total electricity=352.28KW Electricity cost @£0.25/Kw=£88.07 Average light power a day=1.4Kw Average watt per hour=102w g/watt=(136÷102)=1.33g/w £/g=£0.64/g 📋Final word. I should have been more proactive then reactive with this plant, if I had raised her a lot sooner she would have produced a bit more and fought for more space. I'm happy with with my results from the grow. Runtz is always a good strain to have. I'm also loving the green sensation, and the Plagon tera nutes, last 2 grows have had lots of frost since switching to them. Unfortunately I didn't win the Eternity Cup or place in the top 10. I have looked through loads of the diaries that entered and damn there was some 🔥 diaries, what a great competition to have been apart off. Congratulations to @Cauli, @naujas, @DogDoctorOfficial, for placing in the top 3 of the Eternity cup, excellent diaries, and congratulations to the remaining winners. 👏👏 to those that haven't kicked off about not winning. It's best to be a loser then a sore loser. Back soon. Take it easy. ********************************************

Langsam kommen die Blüten.

I fill a reservoir with 25 liters rainwater Then i add 10ml ph up Then i add 25ml calmag Then i add 30grams drypart bloom This way the ph is perfect and the plants have all they need. This scedule also works for soil, just add 15ml ph up instead of 10. *if my kids ever need help with growing and im gone: The scedule above is what i use from start to finish on all my plants, autoflowers and photoperiods (ofcourse half strength first 2 weeks)

Das sind fantastische Nahaufnahmen! Deine Vermutung mit **1 bis 2 Wochen** ist eine absolut punktgenaue Landung. Man sieht deutlich, dass die Damen auf die Zielgerade eingebogen sind, aber jede Pflanze hat gerade ihr ganz eigenes Tempo. Hier ist die detaillierte Analyse der Trichome und des Reifegrades (von links nach rechts): ### 1. Apricot Auto (AA) – Die Vorreiterin * **Trichome:** Auf den Bildern sieht man ein sehr schönes Meer aus **milchigen (trüben)** Trichomen. Die ersten bernsteinfarbenen Köpfchen blitzen vereinzelt schon auf den Spitzen auf. * **Status:** Sie ist am weitesten. Hier sind wir eher bei **7 bis 10 Tagen**. * **Empfehlung:** Ab sofort nur noch klares Wasser (Spülen), falls du das nicht schon tust. Sie braucht keinen Dünger mehr, um fertig zu werden. ### 2. Cherry Cola (CC) – Die Überraschung * **Trichome:** Wer hätte das gedacht? Die "Zicke" hat ordentlich aufgeholt. Die Trichome sind fast alle trüb, kaum noch klare dabei. * **Status:** Sie liegt fast gleichauf mit der AA. Auch hier sind **10 Tage** ein realistisches Ziel. Das Wasser-Regime der letzten Zeit hat ihr sichtlich geholfen, den Stickstoff-Überschuss abzubauen und sich auf die Reife zu konzentrieren. ### 3. Tropicana Cookies (TC) – Die Harz-Maschine * **Trichome:** Das Harz ist phänomenal. Obwohl sie optisch am spektakulärsten aussieht, wirken die Trichome hier noch am "frischesten". Es sind noch einige klare Köpfchen dazwischen. * **Status:** Sie hat das größte Potenzial, in den nächsten Tagen noch an Masse und Potenz zuzulegen. Hier würde ich eher auf die vollen **14 Tage** tippen, um das Maximum an Bernstein für einen entspannten Turn herauszuholen. --- ### Mein Fazit & Plan für die "Letzte Ölung": 1. **Wasser-Marsch:** Ich würde ab jetzt bei **allen dreien komplett auf Dünger verzichten** (auch kein PK mehr). Die Pflanzen haben genug Reserven in den Blättern, um die letzte Woche zu zehren. Das verbessert den Geschmack massiv. 2. **Lichtleistung (80%):** Lass die Lampe auf 80%. In der letzten Woche vor der Ernte kannst du sie (wenn die Temperatur unter 26°C bleibt) für 3-4 Tage auf 90% pushen, um die Harzproduktion als "Stressreaktion" final zu triggern. 3. **RLF im Auge behalten:** Da die Buds jetzt extrem dicht und harzig sind, ist eine RLF von **unter 50%** dein bester Freund gegen Schimmel auf den letzten Metern.

Conning soon

So now she is really starting to showing her nice buds. As you can see she stretched out more and thats good because I have a feeling that they are gonna bo some nice full colas. I start adding Alga Bloom with 2 ml and by the next watering I upped the volume to 3 ml. Next week I will go up to 4 ml of Alga Bloom with 1 ml of Green Sensation. She is really looking strong like bodybuilder. Branches are tough and hard. Her roots are hea;ty and stron too. I saw a little piece of root sticking out of hte hole at the bottom of the pot. The roots are so strong that I can hold the main stem and lift it with the pot and all.😀 Till next week!

Power House of a plant! It just won't stop growing

Pretty slow week... no added nutrients or changes. Sticking with a light watering every few days or so. Other than that, just admiring and watching them- letting them do their thing :)
