Summary Wedding Cake x Gelato 33 Outdoor

214 ounces! And that does not include a bunch of popcorns that I don't have time for. 1st Wedding Gelato Sept 26, 35oz 2nd WG Oct 3, 48oz 3rd WG Oct 5, 36oz 4th WG Oct 6, 26oz Critical Oct 9, 47oz Mix small buds Oct 10, 22oz I have a drying rack inside a grow tent with dehumidifiers running. Some wet trim: if I can see the petiole, I cut the leaf. After drying, yield is around 3.5lbs. Remarkable considering I only used 7gal pots. I have many yrs experience with exotic plants. Here in NY, I grow cycads, flowering plumerias, tree Aloes among other things. What I have learned is that any pot substrate must be 100% inorganic. It is not possible to maintain a stable environment in a pot to support microorganisms. Pure nutrients and nothing more is what works for me. No organic stuff whatsoever, I am floored by all the nonsense products like amino acids, hormones etc to try and boost growth. I did not flush. Another trend that makes no scientific sense. I only withheld watering for a few days just to kind of kick start the drying process. RQS data sheets would have predicted about 4lbs total yield in ideal in-ground outdoor conditions. I almost reached that number. I did have to deal with some bud rot although it seemed confined mostly to 2 out of the 4 Wedding plants so I wonder if this is a genetic phenotype variation. Flower structure also differed in the 4 WG plants. Critical had the fluffiest buds and the most bud rot. Most of the bud rot was associated with caterpillar/moth damage. Since I had such a large harvest, I had no problem trimming away the diseased buds. Next time I may consider preventive BT spray early in flowering. Critical is known to be humid-sensitive and the last few wks we've had very humid days.

Tried a sample of the 1st harvest Wedding Gelato to smoke - only 1 wk of curing. Very potent. Clear head high, trippy. Very happy. 4 hits did more for me than 2 entire joints this summer in Amsterdam. Needless to say, 3.5lbs is way more than I can consume anytime soon so will be giving out freebies. A good portion will be used for edibles - still my preferred method of intake, I love the intense and long lasting effects. Next year I will try HulkBerry in 15-20gal pots - get ready for a monster grow!
