Dropped seeds in water and waited 24 hours. Dropped right in the soil, 3 days later they rose from the coco-coir earth. Used some cut in half water bottles as humidity domes to help keep the top of the soil moist.

5/14: Had to deal with some white mold on the soil that grew overnight, hope it hasnt contaminated the soil they're in. 5/19: Looks like there's a big difference between these two Blue Gelato 41s. I've got 9 plants total across my grow and this one Gelato is the only one that seems to have been stunted somehow, not sure if the mold situation might've damaged its taproot. However, it is growing, just very slowly. There will be no plant left behind though!! So, I will treat this lil gal with caution and try not to stress it out until it has picked up a normal rate of growth. 5/20: Not a ton to do at this stage but I plan to add a little great white mycorrhizae to the next watering to colonize the root zone, hoping that will help the smaller Gelato create roots if it's taproot has something wrong with it.

5/21: I gave a feeding of cal-mag, tribus, and great white. Using 1/4 strength of recommended dosages. Just trying to add some microbes to the coco medium. Watering pH has been between 6-6.8 for all watering so far. 5/24: Transplanted BG#2 into a 7 gallon pot. Dusted roots with great white during the transplant. Built the soil right before transplant using a 60% coco (Plantonix: Coco Bliss), 30% perlite (Miracle grow), 10% earthworm Castings (Wiggle Worm) mix. Amended with Dr. Earth Flower girl 3-9-4 (1.89 cups/10 gallons of soil), Dr.Earth All-Purpose 4-4-4 (.6 cups/10 gallons soil), and Super phos rock bat guano from aurora innovations (5tsp/10 gallons soil). 5/27: Light might be too low/too intense based on the leaf curling

5/30: Raised the light up half a foot roughly, giving roughly 20 DLI at this point. Hopefully leaves will lift up and nodes will space a bit more. 6/3: Environment is getting smoothed out, and plants are getting used to their final homes.

6/14: Majority of training is complete on BG#2, not sure I want to top BG#1 a second time, I might just do LST from now until the flip to flower. It's obvious that BG#1 is a runt compared to all the rest of my plants, but by no means will I give up on it lol. It will still manage to fill out a portion of the tent and hopefully produce beautifully frosted flowers.

In preparation for flower I tied up the trellis nets and opened up the plants in the 4x4. BG#1 is so small I'm not sure it will grow up to the height of the other plants in the tent with it, we shall see.

Definitely noticing a stretching this first week of flower, mini Gelato has definitely shown some vigorous growth in this stage. I have no expectation in high yields from BG#1, but BG#2 looks very promising in that department.

Going to top dress the plants at the start of week 3 with flower nutrients. Have not seen any deficiencies or cause for concern in the past few weeks just watering with pH'd water.
