👉NB: Two plants in this Diary, was not sure how to add the second Sweet Gelato halfway through👈
Stats above were changed over to the second plant a week or so ago
BOTH PLANTS
WE ARE BACK ON TRACK
Reintroduced nutrients slowly back into their watering cycle since the lockout, with today being the first proper nute feed with a bit of extra water
Buds are smelly 👺
Canons are getting thick 💪
Sticky is an understatement, when i broke off fans leaves... It felt like I put my fingers in glue 👏
IT IS FOKKEN COLDDD - Plant not going outside 😨
PLANT 1:
The little one, I stunted with a bad chop and some PH issues.... she is an absolute CHONKER THOUGH!
I had to add some wire as she was almost falling over😅😅
She is right near the end, I expect to harvest her in the next few days as many of the pistols are cloudy and showing some amber... she is moving fast
I am not going to flush her at all, with the new studies including blind tests and such that show flushing has almost no effect on bud improvement and can actually mess with your final weeks of growth... I enjoy listening to science.
Also I flushed them two weeks ago due to lockout, really don't think its needed again.... like I said she is right at the end.
Next week I am sure we will have some harvest photos and stats
PLANT 2:
This plant is developing so nicely since I flushed out the bad
I opened her up nicely also, trying to get most of the buds in the top 3/4 as much light as possible.
Almost all effects of lockout and Nitrogen toxicity are gone, just some lingering claw (which apparently never goes away)
Her buds are getting nice and fat and turning into proper canons
Now the branches are still showing slight nutrient deficiency, but with the nutrient feed I did this week it should all go away and have her back on track.

💦Water and Nutes💦
PLANT 1:
Very lightly introduced last bit of nutes on her final legs
Startgro to help add missing nutrients from flush (No nitrogen in Startgro, point was to add nutrients with less Nitrogen)
Biobizz for all the goodness it provides (molasses, NPK, Sweetness for buds etc)
Adding a bit more water than normal, just yeah... A bit shy after lockout
PLANT 2:
Also light introduction of nutes but a bit heavier than the top plant as it still has a few more weeks of bud developement
Startgro to help add missing nutrients from flush (No nitrogen in Startgro, point was to add nutrients with less Nitrogen)
Biobizz for all the goodness it provides (molasses, NPK, Sweetness for buds etc)
Went a bit harder with this girl as she is bigger and still developing hard - No watering down after
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞
IT IS COOOOOOLD
Biggest cold front of the year has swept in, dumped a whole bunch of snow and these plants are not going near that
They will be staying in the tent for now.... I think they miss the sun but still look happy
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🐛Pests🐛
Nothing, thank goodness - plants are now healthier so I am more optimistic
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
💪Training💪
PLANT 2: Plant wire to keep branches open and buds get more light and a bunch of defoliation (a few branches every few days, no more shocks)
Looking good brother! You can't go wrong with that Freedom Farms soil, I've done multiple grows with mine. Good call on the root pro, I've been pleased with the results since I started to introduce trichoderma in my grows. Take a look at silicon plus from hydroponic.co.za, it plays nicely with that stuff!
All the best with this one!
Suerte con las plagas compañero 💪 Y es bueno darse cuenta del error con la alimentación de las plantas. En mi diario he cometido el mismo error, sobrealimentar de nitrogeno las plantas. Espero se recuperen bien ✊
@Taito, Yeah its been hard without a schedule, and I probably did not research nitrogen enough in the beginning
I have seen the issue with the multigro I am using and am in the process of swopping to something with less N
@DoDrugs420, Thank you
She was definitely my most successful auto to date
I just wish I had caught the PH problems earlier...or she may have just been massive!!
But she tastes like a dream and the high can carry me all day without being sleepy
@Shooey, Too kind sir 😄
But thank you, I put in the time, made a few errors but those will be corrected next grow
It is such a good smoke, wish I could sit and share with friends but sadly covid stops that in its tracks
Just finished drying so will update dry weight and such now
@Shooey, So personally I only have one thing to compare it to and that is topping my other plant the Zkittles....
The topping of my Zkittles it was quite clear that it helped a bunch and i can see the split quite clearly and two main stems instead of one...
With this one its almost like i messed it up. But there was not really more i could cut without turning it into another topping if you get what im saying.
Time will tell this week if it actually bring me seperate top growth or what 🤷♂️
@Shooey, Thanks dude
Yeah it is a nice change from the thick living soil I had.. With more xp I will visit living soil again in the future
but for now I do like this
