Start of Flower. PPFD avg. 700 Soaked entire pot. Started my Flower Foliar Spray right before lights out. I will Spray plants once a week for 4 weeks of Flower. Foliar Spray Recipe per 2L as follows: All Advanced Nutrients Products. 4ml Bud Ignitor 4ml Nirvana 4ml Bud Factor X 10ml B-52 Midweek update. Second round of foliar spray. Ladies loved the first round, went with a second. Ill do this twice a week until I'm through week 4 of Flower. Video is right after I sprayed for the 2nd round at 15 mins before lights out. Don't want all the foliar spray burning the ladies now do we.

Week 9 - both gorilla ladies growing healthy and getting fat 9L Pot the bud is getting fat and frosty 12 Pot buds are now stretching and getting some frost

She has a strong sweet floral smell. This was a great grow with the Agrogardens nutrition under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2. I didn't have any major growing issues during the grow. Everything looks great, and produced great.

I use all 3 General hydroponic nutrients and they are two different pot sizes the Moby Dick is in 30 liter and the blue amnesia is in 18 liters has a very strong odor and blue amnesia is maturing at a faster rate then the Moby Dick. a scrog net is being used in order to give support to the upcoming buds. I am also actually on week 4 I just made a mistake calculating the week. this is my first grow ever. also I'm not sure if using the scroll net it's a good idea for support rather than tying those branches up . I am watering every two days feeding nutes every single time at 900 to 1000 PPM ph at 6.2 the plans have not show any signs of stress but I am worried if it is too much nutrients the plant seems to grow very fast after every watering and seems to be loving it. the blue Amnesia XXL Auto it's growing in soil with 30% Coco and the Moby Dick XXL auto it's growing in hydroponic soil. the seeds were germinated on jiffy's and 100% germination rate plus the genetics seems to me very resilient to heat and everything else including lots of nutrients. the moby Dick XXL auto are the two in the front closest to the camera the two farthest to the back of the tent are the two blue amnesiaXXL auto. today day 31 i did some pruning actually lots of pruning hopefully don't cause stress to the plants or even worse cause them not to bud that nicely regardless the scrog net seems to be working just fine helping them access more light and making it easy for cutting leaves that are no longer needed. 32 yesterday after watering and sleeping today they have show no signs of stress in fact they starting to stretch in the buds that we're not getting sufficient light have start to grow also yesterday from the 16 liters I prepare instead of 3 ml of grow formula I add 6 1/2 to compensate for stress and the need of healing and having new grow stretch. also temperature has dropped dramatically outside making my house cold down from 24 degrees C to 19° at night internal temperature is remaining the same from 30 to 26 C. Day 33 I have been raising the scrog net every day and the light everyday this plant is growing very fast I also notice that where the fan is hitting all the time that plant is bigger I have been moving the fan to other sections of the grow tent to see if any reaction happens and it looks like it makes the plant grow faster . I will not be moving the Scrog net any higher Rather I will introduce another one once they require more support . Day34 notice some of the top leaves are showing a curving down like over-watering without actually over water I think they're showing signs of too much nitrogen .for the next water session I will hold back on nitrogen until I see signs of a fully recovering meaning leafs pointing up. thank you for reading have a happy grow.

2/14: Decreased distance between the lights and canopy. Let the maximum swell commence! 2/16: Fed today..increased sugars/carbs. This was probably the last feeding with Beastie Bloomz..switching to Cha Ching at next feed and cutting back on the One.

Hey everyone!!! Start of week five. Everything is starting to come along. Everything is gping fine in the garden. Still super cropping some of the branches on cc2 to keep it even. Added some open sesame to this weeks feed. 😎 cheers Update 11/15 hey everyone back with an update. Fed the girls this morning, and the first thing i noticed was the sweet aroma. 😁😁 these girls love water amd nutes i feed them about a gallon of water every 2 to 3 days. Lots of pistills starting to come in as well😁😁😁😁 i also lsted and leaf stripped as well! Cheers!✌️✌️

bueno se hizo una por primera vez una cosecha por partes, como indicamos en el post anterior, se cosecho los cogollos donde la luz pegaba mas al parecer y estaban mas desarrollados, la cosecha fue con tricomas blancos tendiendo a transparentes con pocos ambar, en opinion ya luego de una semanas y una segunda cosecha, es que cosechamos pronto por temor al pasarnos al ser primera vez, entonces posiblemente nos apresuramos un poco ligeramente o confundimos los tricomas tendiendo a ser transparente por los blancos que es lo que indica la teoria el punto de corte, pero no nso quejamos quedo genial! subiremos el segundo punto de corte luego de 2 semanas . LAS ULTIMAS FOTOS LAS DE LAS 2 SEMANAS MAS 2DO CORTE.

🍋🍒 Week 1 — Lemon Cherry Gelato | 12/12 From Seed | First Observations Introduction & Gratitude A huge thank you to everyone supporting this project: genetics providers, Plagron for the nutrient line, Future of Grow for the lighting and control system, Cannakan for the clean start, and the GrowDiaries community of supporters, critics, and followers. Your presence makes this more than a grow — it becomes a shared experience and a learning journey. ⸻ Genetics Overview — Lemon Cherry Gelato This cultivar is known for citrus and sweet cherry terpene potential, balanced hybrid traits, and beautiful early morphology. Already in Week 1 she displays her own character. ⸻ Early Development — Long, Elegant First Leaves Among all seedlings in the 8×8, Lemon Cherry Gelato stands out immediately. Her first true leaves are long, narrow, elegant, and beautifully symmetrical. Under macro photography, the serrations and venation look almost painted. Despite being under 12/12 from seed, she expresses confidence and early aesthetic structure. ⸻ Growing Medium — Pro-Mix Mycorrhizal 14.5 L Bags Benefits of the mycorrhizal medium: • Faster and healthier root colonization • Improved nutrient uptake, especially phosphorus • Better water distribution and drought tolerance • Enhanced metabolic stability during 12/12-from-seed • Stronger early vigor and more efficient compact growth Grow bags also encourage air pruning and strong fibrous root development, which is ideal for short-cycle runs like 12/12. Lemon Cherry Gelato appears to respond extremely well to this combination — the long early leaves are a good sign of strong underground development. ⸻ Feeding — Plagron Nutrient Strategy (Week 1) All plants in the space share the same feeding mix: In water: • Terra Grow: 25 ml / 10 L • Power Roots: 1 ml / L • Pure Zym: 1 ml / L • Sugar Royal: 1 ml / L Foliar: • Vita Race: 2.5 ml / L Why it works well: Power Roots + mycorrhizae creates a synergistic boost for early root expansion. Pure Zym keeps the medium active and helps nutrient uptake. Sugar Royal increases stress resistance under 12/12. Vita Race enhances early growth and leaf strength. Terra Grow provides the nitrogen support this fast-cycle method demands. ⸻ Environmental Conditions (Week 1) • EC: ~1.0 • pH: ~6.0 • Water Temperature: 21–22°C • Room Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: 65–70% • CO₂: ~666 ppm • PPFD: 500 from the start These numbers are stable, healthy, and ideal for early 12/12 development. ⸻ Lighting — 500 PPFD Under Hyper Red Spectrum Using the Future of Grow Air Grow Pro III 2.95 Hyper Red LED at 500 PPFD from day one. The Hyper Red spectrum and consistent PPFD help maintain tight internodes and support strong early leaf development. This strain seems particularly responsive to light, expressing refined leaf shape and good posture. ⸻ What to Expect Next Weeks 2–3: • Slow but steady vertical growth • Root system expands aggressively with help from mycorrhizae • Leaf width and color deepen • Early hormonal adaptation to 12/12 Weeks 4–5: • First mini-stretch • Clear bud site formation • Early fragrance hints on stem rubs (citrus/cherry tones) This strain tends to become visually impressive early and aromatic early, even under a compact flowering schedule. ⸻ Metrics Being Tracked • PPFD, dimmer %, and light height • Temperature, humidity, and VPD • EC, pH, and water temperature • Morphology (noting the long early leaf structure) • Root behavior in Pro-Mix bags • Mycorrhizal response • Any early terpene hints ⸻ Final Thoughts Week 1 shows Lemon Cherry Gelato as an artistic and expressive cultivar. The long, elegant leaves and her strong early structure reflect excellent interaction between the genetics, Pro-Mix mycorrhizal medium, and the lighting environment. She may be small now due to the 12/12 schedule, but the foundation suggests a beautiful flowering stage ahead. Thank you to everyone following this multi-strain, multi-medium 12/12 project. This folder is only beginning — and Lemon Cherry Gelato is already showing her unique soul.

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.

well this lady has been a gem too work with , she really stretched out at flower growing from a rose into too a sun flower lol but not quiet as tall as her sister the cali snow , she has been no trouble at all so far no deficiency's at all , also her bud structure is forming nicely and again not too far behind the cali snow , but both plants have almost identical structures too each other until you rub your fingers on those sugar leaves and they tell you they are doing there own thing by the lush sent they leave you sniffing your fingers in delight , the cali snow has much more of a friuty smell than the GSC but they both smell delicious thats for sure

Pretty colors but she doesnt deliver fat buds

BERRY BOMB AUTO (Bomb Seeds) x2 42 days from sprout. BERRY BOMB (A) : 57.9 cm, has shown some nice growth in height and has developed three main branches, and so I've been calling her the hydra. BERRY BOMB (B) : 77.7 cm, had a massive growth spurt (for my tent size at least) and is also maturing much quicker than the rest of the plants in the tent. I'm thinking I maybe should have topped her as well. She is also the first to smell of berries (lightly so far).

such as easy girl to grow. Buds are getting heavy so I had to add some bamboo stakes for support. No amber yet

It was a little finicky it had an average response to the training. There might have been a period of high ph but it pushed forward regardless. Will prob grow again at some point.

TRANSITION DAY 10: This lady is my latest favourite. She is progressing amazingly under the new lights and has now started to flower properly. she has been putting her first bract pistils out since day 5 of flip. This is the fastest i have seen this occur with my grows. She has fought back from the stripping ,prior to flip, and her regrowth is virile and very strong looking. I think she will be in my top 10 of strains to grow. Her response to the quadline style has been excellent and i dont think it has slowed her down at all. She is stretching well and will hopefully be setting herself up for long thick colas. I need to strip out all the lower small bits of growth and maybe a few hopeful mains. her size has limited her possibilities with the space i have i think. I am going to be spacing my girls out a little more and trusting the lights will still give me adequate coverage to the canopies edge. We will see. lol All in all i am enjoying working with this strain so far and imagine a future grow to include a few more. Thanks for looking in ( if you are please kick that tumbleweed out of the way , room looks deserted with those knocking round !!) Have a green day

8/19/23 - Day 67 - Things are still looking good. We just had a water change. A couple more weeks! 8/21/23 - OK, ok ok, we have a lot of work coming up. Right now is like the calm before the storm. The storm I'm talking about is harvest, trimming, drying, and curing. This is the kind of labor that you LOVE to HATE. Especially with how many buds ill be pulling from this LEAF box. Let's talk about progress real fast. She is getting bulkier every day. Overnight she drank about 300+ ppm of nutes. She likes the nutes a lot. I'm taking this as a reason for all the little snowy crystals and the enlargement of the buds. Flushing: For about a week before harvest I will empty the water+Nutes and refill only with Water. We want the plant to suck up and replace all the nutes in the buds with water. This is called flushing. Trimming plans and Tools: When it's time to trim the plant, I've got a plan in mind. I'm going to trim the buds while they're still wet, and I'll leave them attached to the stems. To simplify the drying process, I will split the LEAF into two parts – the top and the bottom. Since space is a bit tight in the LEAF with this grow, I will keep just the buds on the branches. This will help the air circulate the buds better. I've even found this cool trimming tray on Amazon that I'm planning to use. I've realized that having the right tools for trimming is essential. Just like I'd put on gloves to work on a car, I will use nitrile gloves to keep things clean while trimming. And I'll use proper trimming scissors instead of regular ones. These scissors are designed for this job and should make the process much smoother. Amazon - Trimming Tray - (somewherr brand pictured above) Amazon - Nitrile Gloves Amazon - Trimming Scissors Drying Plans and Tools: Once I'm done trimming, it's time to dry the buds. I'm thinking of using simple tension rods, like those small shower curtain rods, to hang the branches. This way, I can create two levels inside the drying box. The lower part can rest on a SCROG net to ensure good airflow and even drying for all the branches. The LEAF box will handle the drying parameters. The environment inside the LEAF box will focus only on keeping the humidity at 60% and moving the air around getting the buds to a non-mildew amount of humidity. Amazon - Tension rods 16-28” Curing Plans and Tools After the buds are dry (60% humidity), the next step is curing. This means I'll be storing the buds in sealed glass jars. I've got mason jars and hygrometers to monitor humidity levels. Once the jars are filled with buds, I'll seal them and put them in an cool, dark spot. I plan to open the jars briefly every day to let in some fresh air. (15min). I'll know the curing is done when the humidity inside the jars stays around 62% during these "burps." That's when my perfectly cured buds will be ready to enjoy! Amazon - Hygrometer 12 Pack Target - 32oz Ball Mason Jars 12 Pack I use a smell-proof duffle bag. It has double zippers, and smell prof lining. The brand is www.420stock.com, and the model I use is the X-Large Trap Pax Duffle Bag. 8/23/23 - 20% more nutrients were added. She went from about 900 at the beginning of the week to about 330. Now she's back up to 500ppms. We change the water in one more day. 8/24/23 - Day 72 - It's official: I have moved the smell slider up! Holy shit, does it smell potent. I put my arm in there through the Weed forest, and when my arms came out, I was attacked by the Skunk BOSS. I had to shower and change my outfit to eliminate the smell.

Day 28 flowering" Aloha grow buddies. Hope all have happy plants and greenery. These amazing ladies have coped really well with the heatwaves we are going through here in the uk. None of them have held back with bud production and seen the mutant # Banana has decided to join in now. I did a very careful but needed defoliation of most of the ladies . The airflow now is a lot more useful bit it is still very warm. Bamana mash are all stacking very nicely now and their stems are looking less spindley. There are a lot of really nice length limbs showing their potential now too. The canopy has evened out nicely for these ladies now. Purple Monkey are really storming ahead with girth now and the buds different Phenos are all more obvious. Only the #2 has the Purple showing so far. The middle row has now got a firm race on with the ladies there trying to dominate for the available light. I am stoked with the development in the experimental seeds and can see some nice harvests coming. Well done Exotic seeds. Hopefully sponsor some more autos to follow on ? , maybe ? . lol They are all feeding really well now and on about 5L each per 1 days. No signs of any issues now at all and hopefully the next 4 weeks + will all be about swelling those stacks. Be safe and well growmies .
