Germination
3 years ago
5 out of 5 germinations from the HomegrownCannabisSeedCo Gelato Autos. Planted in Ocean Forest soil in 3 gal smart pots. 10/23 - first true leaves appeared 3 out of 5. Ran 40% light for first 3 days of cotyledon =. 10/24 - first true leaves appeared on the remaining 2. Bumped the light up to 60% and moved it 34" above seedlings and I am considering this the start of week one in the feed and harvest cycle.

Typical seedling cycle. The light is enough as the seedlings haven't stretched and got leggy. 10/24 - bumped the light up to 60% and moved it down to 34". Watered the center of the pot to promote root growth in the middle of the growbag. 10/25 - sprayed the seedlings with Germ Genie (Kelp) from HomeGrownCannabisCo and added a floor fan to the two clip-on fans. 10/26 - didn't open tent. 10/27 - didn't open tent. 10/28 - watered the center of the pot about 50% of the pot was watered. 10/29 - kicked the light up to 100%. Kept it 34". Will lower some next week. 10/30 - planted White Dutch clover as a living mulch and natural nitrogen fixer. We will see what the hype is about. Just got the top of the soil moist after sowing it.

10/30 - just looked at it. Waiting until tomorrow to give it a good watering. 10/31 - watered the girls and they are loving the kelp. Got some nice size leaves acting like solar panels! 11/01- Didn't open the tent. Temp 80 degrees, RH 58%. 11/02 - The White Dutch Clover is starting to sprout and will be my living mulch. The plants are really starting to take hold and grow significantly even overnight. 11/03 -Lowered the light from 32" to 26". Plants are starting to veg pretty hard. 11/04 - Just looked and smiled today. 11/05 - gave the girls their first good watering. Didn't add any nutrients. Waiting another watering or so before I add any General Hydroponics FloraNova Grow.

11/6 - Just looked at them. Still too short for me to try some LST. Hopefully, the end of the week. 11/7 - Just looked. 11/8 - Two of them were ready to be pulled down for some LST. Everything was running well. I added a small heater to the tent to help with the nighttime temperature. 11/9 - Was out of town 11/10 - Was out of town 11/11 - Getting bushy. Gave them their first feeding with Flora Grow. Added some Cal-Mag and Root Guardian as well. pH of water 5.8. 11/12 - Added a scrog net and tied a few down to even it out. Adjusted the light up a couple inches to maintain 26". Sarting to see some pistils come out of the calyx. Initial stages of pre-flower today. Clipped a few of the fan leaves covered at the bottom along with some of the larger up top (not shown in today's photos).

11/13 - Nothing done. 11/14 - Just looked 11/15 - Watered with GH FloraNova Grow, Cal-Mag, Root Gaurdian. Water pH 6.3. 11/16 - Did some selective defoliation. Removed some of the larger fan leaves, some of the lower leaves not getting much action, and worked the scrog net a bit to spread them out. 11/17 - Sprayed for mold prevention and bugs. Did some selective defoliation and moved the branches around the scrog. 11/18 - Didn't open the tent. 11/19 - Gave them a nice drink of water and did some selective defoliation.

11/20 - Just looked and pruned a couple leaves from the bottom. Probably last week of defol hopefully. 11/21 - Just inspected, nothing needed. 11/22 - Did one more prune opening the middle of the plants and clearing out the bottom not getting any sunlight. Did some selective defoliation on the top fan leaves. 11/23 - The girls were thirsty today. Hit them with the veg and bloom mix. 1/4 strength veg and 1/2 strength bloom. Used a couple LST clips to bend over a couple tall branches to try and even out that canopy. 11/24 - Out of town 11/25 - Out of town 11/26 - Out of town

12/04 - Gonna do a flush. I think I let the plants sit in the runoff too long after watering last time. Have a little yellowing on some of the leaves. 12/05 - Decided not to flush. I pH the soil at 5.8. Gonna raise it a bit and I cut out the veg nutes and cut the flowering nutes in half. Used some Germ Genie which is essentially kelp to see if the issue was just nute burn or potassium. pH the water to 6.8. 12/06 - Looking healthy today. Fan Leaves are really stretching for the light. 12/07 - Plants are starting to bud up and fill in those pistils. 12/08 - Watered the girls with just Bloom. 12/09 - Out of Town 12/10 -Looking Frosty!
