Began her fertilizer this week with a little over 1/2 strength dose of the above nutrient mix.
She has dropped a few leaves off the bottom inside of the plant. Nothing unusual.
The colors remain dark but I expect she's gonna go purple here shortly.
The resin is really crowding the water leaf edges. That signals a FROSTY finisher to me!
There is some brown spotting turning to eventual necrosis. I will post a question about it because I have no idea why she's doing that.
I had this same thing with my Gelato in the past and never really figured it out.
Looks like a big healthy indica to me. Should put out a decent harvest.
The Smells are INCREDIBLE. Somebody else said it, I'm gonna steal it. Smells like a skunk carryin a sack of oranges.😎
Any idea what could be causing this necrosis on my leaves? Starts with the spots and grows to crisp up the leaf.
My soil should have plenty of calcium and magnesium. Happened once before on Gelato and never deciphered it.
Dirty, of course I hope I'm wrong but these little spots seems to me an initial botrytis attack (already contrasted by natural plant's defences). Mold sometimes attacks leaves with these brown spots and necrosis under page and this not means the also buds will be affected. Botrytis and other fungi are always present in both plants and humans, sometimes our defences fall down and pests rise. I've observed these spots lotnof times in my all runs but only few plants eventually they showed bud rot. There is no living or plant being completely free from disease.
Good lord the resin on this lady. 😲
Decent production on the entire plant.
Smells are out of this world tangerine skunk.
I already can't wait for her 3rd run! This was the first, and I learned a few things.
She struggled with what I think is "early onset" Botrytis.
Hoping it doesn't effect the buds too bad.
I can not wait to see what she does at 100% health 😍
She looks like death.
I think the buds are gonna be delicious, but production was no doubt affected.
Still hoping the buds don't rot.
SOOOOOO CLOSE! Not gonna be around tomorrow, so probably the next day 😎 I'm drooling....
12/12 flip to harvest: 56 days
Medium sized with moderate stretch.
Plant was a solid performer throughout. I had some issues with Botrytis in the leaves early on(passed over from an OG kush that went full bud rot)
All that said, The leaves took a huge hit fighting back but in the end produced pretty well. No Bud Rot.
The smells are incredible and I'm looking forward to this curing out.
Super happy that she came through with no Bud rot.
Smaller harvest this run, but 1st run testing the strain. I will definitely run this again.
Updates ongoing as she dries/cures.
@CRiSPrGrow, It was a great observation. I settled on that as my culprit due to the fact I just brought down a OG Kush with a Cola full of mold.
I have never seen, or heard of it in the leaves like this before. It has since spread to a Bruce Banner.
I sense a shutdown coming.
Nice little buds now the waiting begins 😀 I always say waiting for buds is like watching paint dry 😅 at least it's pretty paint ... happy flowering

@JamMAKEcan, Oh yeah! She's gettin there. Stamen just beginning to red.
I never know with indicas. Sometimes they finish fast and sometimes they do the lingering thing....
We;ll see haha ;)
Great looking finished product. From your last pics at day 54 of flowering, I was sure thinking it needed a couple more weeks...minimum.
But it’s hard to argue with those frosty bud pics.
I’m guessing it will be more of productive, talkative and energetic smoke as opposed to the couch lock and hammering an entire pizza variety.
Would love to know how she tastes, smells and your yield when dry.
Well done
@Bullmark, awesome to hear you are getting back into it. I followed the dead up until '95 as well.
I too am amazed by autos and the flexibility they provide. And LED's ha! yep they are the go to now. No more HID's for this hippy.
Have you considered autos OD? I thought about Geurilla grows that harvest in April! So many changes over the last few years.
I'll pop in and take a look at what you got
Happy Harvests my friend
@Dirty_Hippy,
Thanks for the info....I totally understand, and I think there’s a wider window for most strains than one might be led to believe. And your buds look great.
I’m about to post my most recent week. I’m in mid flower and can’t believe how fast these autos do their thing.
You’ll probably think I’m crazy but I haven’t smoked but a handful of times in the past 20 yrs. Prior to that it was an everyday enjoyment.....over the course of 49 Dead shows (all w/ JG) I pushed my lungs to the limit....but I stopped for a number of reasons. I also used to grow a bit outdoors and have never lost my love for the plant....the smell of it especially.
It just became legal in my state and I always said I would grow some if it was (legal).
But man there was no such thing as autos...or full spectrum LEDs back in my era.
I know I’m gonna hafta take a nip of my grow when it’s finished. And I know it’s gonna put my dick in my watch pocket....zero tolerance and probably can’t smoke a small enough amount to avoid a paranoid stress attack....but I need to work it out.
Anyway, I think I have about 4 weeks to go until the buds are in that window.
It’s been nice chatting with others and seeing how others do it.
Ciao for now
@Bullmark,Thank you! More pics/info coming soon.
2 factors here that pushed me to harvest.(a week early for my taste.)
1. I just finished battling mold with every lady through this tent for the last 5 months. I'm kinda jumpy lol.
2. This one had the dying leaf condition which I diagnosed(with help) as Botrytis. It never rotted buds thankfully.
If there was a third reason, I am pretty old school with a lot of my methods. One of those is that I harvest when I see a few trichs on the calyxes beginning to amber. (In a perfect scenario)
Got her little sister 3 weeks into flower as well so I will test a longer 2nd run during the dry season.
I truly appreciate the feedback and the interest.
Stay lit bro!
