Encore features

  1. Merlin’s Grow Log (Part 2) - A long-runner with a proper crowd around it, as much banter and genetics talk as grow updates. Last featured back in round 3 and busier now than it was then.

  2. Bentsticks Growings - Started as a first indoor run with White Widow and Granddaddy Purple, and has since turned into one of the biggest threads on the board. Featured in round 2 and still going strong.

  3. Twelve1’s Journal: Autoflowers in Soil with Grow Dots - Autos in soil running on Grow Dots, with a patient crowd that turns every hiccup into a lesson. One of the original five from round 1.

Fresh faces

  1. Caligurls 2026 Eclectic Grow - Three unusual hybrids in one run: Alani Skunk x Gluey, Black Amnesia x Peanut Butter Breath and Cherry Pie x Manatsuka. Worth a look for the genetics alone.

  2. Grandpas Cookies #6 S1 and Heckin Chonker - Only just underway this week. A great one to follow from day one if you like watching a grow from the very start.

Winner gets a little ILGM goody bag on us. :wrapped_gift: Poll closes Monday and we’ll announce the winner Monday. Got a journal worth highlighting? Drop the link below and we’ll consider it for a future round.

Good luck to this round’s five: @merlin44 @Bentstick @Twelve1 @Caligurl @goldiemouth270

No, this will be my first time so be gentle. :rofl:
I am looking forward to growing them.
More than that, I am looking forward to filling my vape with it. I am currently growing GSCX and Durbin Poison, also firsts for me. I can’t wait to try them in a few months.
