Week 27 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers, Shes survived the caterpillar attack 😂 Have found a few spots from bud rot from high humidity cant really help that as weather has been terrible just storms after storms of heavy rain 😐 dark clouds not much sun, we still have more rain coming with highest of 21 degrees...😒 Shes coming very close to her harvest window maybe 2 weeks time. Shes probably ready to come down but i want to push it a little longer because of those sativa traits.

Gorilla Zkittlez Auto is a true work of art among autoflowers. With its powerful, dense buds literally dotted with 'sugar', each stage of growth of this plant is pure eye pleasure. The scent she exudes is as delicious as her taste-sweet, with fruity notes, promising an unforgettable delight. This beauty not only looks great, but also gives a strong, powerful effect that both relaxes and cheers up. Special thanks for this outstanding variety of 42Fast Buds, and, of course, Xpert Nutrients-your fertilizers made such impressive results possible. Each stage of growth was perfect thanks to this tandem. This variety is a real miracle for any grower! Xpert Nutrients is the fertilizer that truly makes a difference! 🌱 From the very start of our grow, Xpert Nutrients has proven itself to be exceptional. Every plant receiving this nourishment flourishes—from strong roots to dense, trichome-covered buds. With its balanced formula and ease of use, our beauties get everything they need for optimal growth and flowering. It’s a joy to see how the plants respond to this fertilizer! A huge thank you to Xpert Nutrients for your high-quality product and continuous support. Without your nutrients, our results wouldn't be as impressive! 🙌

Day 65 (12/31): no change. Day 66 (1/1): I'm thinking the plant on the left will be finished before the plant on the right. The leaves seem to be fading and the trichomes seem to be more mature on that plant also. 11pm: just watered the plants nutes. Same as last time. Left plant 6mL micro 12 mL bloom. Right plant 8mL micro 16 mL bloom Day 67 (1/2) Day 68 (1/3) Day 69 (1/4): just got home from a trip. Plants seem to be doing fine. Nearing the end I assume. Plants will probably need water tonight 10pm: just fed my plants nutes again. Both plants received 8mL of micro and 16 mL of bloom. Day 70: (1/5) Day 71 (1/6): plants look good this morning. The left plant is definitely nearing the end of its life. The plant on the right still could have another week or more. Just posted a video: plant on the left definitely doesn't have very large or dense nugs but it has a lot of them. The plant on the right has some super dense nugs. I'm excited to see what they both yield.

Week 14 Day 92 (10/16) Checked her trichomes and she's just starting to show some amber. She may need watered tonight, probably will add in some Mammoth P and molasses too. Day 93 (10/17) I've been slacking on updates and pics, but there's just not too much to say or document. She's still doing her thing, really looking more frosty than the first partial harvest. Thinking I should have waited a bit longer for the first cut, but oh well, it still gets the job done. I have held off on watering as her pot is still pretty heavy. It was lighter this morning so maybe this afternoon I will water her. I'm keeping an eye on her trichomes as I want there to be more amber for the final harvest. Day 94 (10/18) Everything from the partial harvest has been dried and I finally weighed it all. Came out to around 48.5g (including the 4-5g we've been smoking on). There's still plenty more on her. Everything has been jarred up for a few days and I've got Boveda packs in the jars too. Day 98 (10/22) Checked the trichomes this morning and I think I might put her in the dark for 48 hours starting tomorrow night. She's turning into a fuggin 100 day auto. Day 99 (10/23) Well, I made the executive decision to prep her for harvest. When her lights went off last night, I unplugged it from the timer so she'll have her 48 hours of dark. I also added some ice cubes around her base. I've read about the dark helping and the ice simulating a frost, but I've never done this so we'll see. Shouldn't hurt right? So I'll be harvesting her Saturday night or Sunday. And hopefully popping another over the weekend 😃 Day 100 (10/24) Well she's been in the dark almost her 48 hours. I have family in town tonight, so she may have to wait until tomorrow to get cut. Or I might just stay up half the night and get her down tonight lol. We'll see. Day 101 (10/25) Technically week 15, but who's counting. Cut her down today. Got her cleaned up and into paper bags to dry. Will get a weight and post the harvest once she's dry. Getting another one ready to go 😉

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!

Ever since I started adding nutrients my main flowering plant looks like it’s stressed out. Maybe even slowing of some growth. The one that just started flowering seems to be unbothered. Continuing to try to follow instructions as best as I can but of coarse I can do stupid things like after I feed I once used water without ph correcting it 😒. All good though gotta learn somehow. This strain keeps growing regardless. Might just not hit its maximum potential due to lack of professional know how.

Day 64 to 70 On autopilot. I have been light on the nutrients so bumped up the nutes to 810ppm this week. Forbidden Runtz 1 is coming close, the buds are getting THICC and hard. I'm keeping a close eye on the trichomes. It's almost go time. I predict 2-3 more weeks for the rest but I don't know anything Feeding around 750ppm this week. Lightening up on Nutes for FR1 at ~350ppm.

🐻 Animal Mints — Week 1 The Bear Awakens Grow Week: 1 (Seedling Stage) Additional Plant: One established plant (~15 days veg) Light Schedule: 12/12 from seed Environment: Same conditions as the rest of the room ⸻ 🌱 Medium & Containers This run includes multiple plants at different stages, all grown under the same environmental conditions: • PRO-MIX soil in fabric bags • Plagron soil in plastic pots One of the Animal Mints plants is approximately 15 days ahead, growing in a plastic pot with Plagron soil. The remaining plants are newly introduced seedlings growing in both PRO-MIX bags and plastic pots. All plants are receiving the same feeding and foliar regimen. ⸻ 🌿 Growth & Structure Animal Mints is showing a very distinctive growth pattern, clearly leaning toward the indica / indica-dominant hybrid side. • Broader, rounder leaves • Compact and sturdy structure • Strong lateral presence • Deep, healthy green coloration The more established plant is already on its fifth pair of leaves, showing excellent vigor, balance, and overall health. Growth is confident and stable, with no signs of stress. The younger plants are smaller by comparison, which is expected due to the difference in age, not due to environment, feeding, or genetics. ⸻ 🔍 Important Note (Plant Size Difference) This report includes one Animal Mints plant that is approximately 15 days older than the others. The size difference is intentional and expected, as this plant was germinated earlier and has been receiving the same care and nutrition throughout its vegetative life. All plants: • Share the same environment • Follow the same feeding program • Are growing without issues This setup allows for interesting comparisons later on as the younger plants catch up. ⸻ Vegetative Feeding & Foliar Program All Animal Mints plants — including the older one — are following the standard vegetative recipe used across the room: Root & Base Nutrition (Watering): • Terra Grow • Power Roots • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal Foliar Application: • Vita Race Applied flexibly once to twice per week, depending on plant response and overall mood of the grow. This is the same recipe the older plant has been receiving during its entire ~15-day vegetative period, which clearly shows in its strong structure and healthy development. ⸻ 🐾 Observations • Strong indica-leaning morphology • Compact internodes and rounded leaves • Excellent response to the vegetative feeding program • No deficiencies or stress signs observed • Both older and younger plants look healthy and vigorous Animal Mints feels calm, heavy, and grounded — very much living up to its name. ⸻ 🚀 What to Expect Next • Younger plants will begin accelerating growth • Structural comparison between early and later starts • Continued strong vegetative development • Potential early training considerations once size equalizes The bear is awake — and it’s growing with intention 🐻🌿 FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6000 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

This was an easy ride, taste and outcome was very satisfactory, the taste was a bit different than i was used to, i think the chicken fertilizer did something special... the smoke was awesome, very sweet and a bit sugar tasting here and there (i used molasses in the end as sugar booster)0

Everything is going great! On the 48th day of vegetation, we switched the light cycle to 12/12, and for the second week now, our beautiful Golden Sands - 1 has started flowering. She’s been growing rapidly and noticeably increasing in height. We continue to feed her with fertilizers from Xpert Nutrients, and the results are impressive. A huge thank you to Xpert Nutrients for their high-quality fertilizer, which is not only effective but also very easy to use. With such a reliable product, we’re confident that everything will turn out perfectly!
