Gelat.OG Auto and Do-Si-Dos Cookies Auto

April 1, 2023 Day 37 Do-Si-Dos Cookies: Height: 13.5" DLI: 31 Flowering Gelat.OG Height: 12.5" DLI: 31 My new AC Infinity watering basin kit came in today. They each hold 1 gallon of water. Perfect for my grow setup. They are about an inch taller than the other ones I was using, so the DLI went up to 31. That's just where I think these ladies need to be at the moment. Do-Si-Dos Cookies is looking really healthy with nice lush, broad full leaves. The only thing is the branching. It's still not going anywhere. Concerned. Especially because she is flowering. Gelat.OG is branching out quite nicely. The only concern I have is that she looks like she won't be more than a foot and a half tall. She isn't in flower yet, so I'm hoping for some vigorous growth. I don't think I'm getting much size out of these 2. It has to be from the early stretched seedling stage. Maybe something else? No idea though. The soil is fine. The watering is fine. The light intensity is fine, the temp and RH are both fine. The one and only issue is the early stretch. I wonder how that works? The main stem is too thin and made a plant to match the size? Don't they get thicker? We shall see. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.7° RH: 55.3% VPD: 1.28 April 2 ,2023 Both ladies are happy and growing. Do-Si-Dos Cookies is still looking quite thin. Her branches are starting to grow finally, but I fear the height is definitely an issue. Gelat.OG looks great! Very well formed lady. Just small. She looks like she's hitting pre-flower now. I hope for a huge boost in growth. The watering kit I bought helped out a ton for humidity and now I don't have to worry about feeding them every day or 2. Now I can wait 3 to 4 days. Quite happy for this. They don't seem to be needing any special treatment yet. I was considering doing some LST on Gelat.OG, but I don't think she will end up being big enough for it. Maybe a small Defoliated after the stretch. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74° RH: 53.7% VPD: 1.29 kPa Update: I've added a 2.5" lift to these ladies to compensate for a too tall Skywalker OG in the tent. Intensity turned down to 60%. April 3, 2023 Same concerns as yesterday. Too small. Happy though. Not much else to say for today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 71.1° RH: 51.2% VPD: 1.23 kPa Update: based on answers from my branch question, I decided to snip 4 leaves off of Do-Si-Dos Cookies and did some LST on Gelat.OG. just a little for now. April 4, 2023 Today, both ladies got a small top feeding and reservoir refill. Both are enjoying the light distance and DLI. Do-Si-Dos Cookies is still super healthy, but still has stubby branches. I'm sure it will take a day or 2 to see results from popping those leaves off yesterday. She definitely isn't growing as fast as she should be. It's strange because she has been the most happy between the 2. I swear she's trying to be a runway model. Rail thin. Strange. Gelat.OG took to her training swimmingly last night. I pulled her down again this morning. I also adjusted some of the side branch tie downs. She should turn out pretty flat. She definitely grew a bit last night as well. Even with the tie downs she is at 15" from the 13.5" from a day or 2 ago. Maybe she really needed some LST and some TLC to get her back on track. Much happier now. Learned a new thing. Well, maybe. She just started to stretch a bit. She's getting to the end of her pre-flower stage. So let's see her spike right up. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.1° RH: 54.2% VPD: 1.25 kPa April 5, 2023 Looking good today. Both ladies are great on water and only needed the quarter turn. Do-Si-Dos Cookies has huge calyxes for such a short plant. She didn't branch at all, but I expect with such large calyxes, she's gonna be hefty. She also stretched a bit. Now 15" tall. Huge leaves. Strong stalk. No chance of training now anyway. Defoliation is pointless so that's good. Gelat.OG took perfectly to her training. Unfortunately, I may have to untie the branches so they can match the top. I didn't think about this before. Whoops. She may be starting to pre-flower now. Or has been, but it's getting more noticable. Hopefully we will see a stretch. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.8° RH: 56.3% (super muggy today) VPD: 1.17 kPa April 6, 2023 Still still pretty humid weather. I have a bigger dehumidifier coming today for the room itself. It doubles as an air purifier, so one less thing to buy. I'm starting to think I may have got these ladies' strains backwards. What I have been calling Do-Si-Dos Cookies may actually be the Gelat.OG. Maybe someone has a better idea. They are both very different. So it shouldn't be hard to differentiate them. Do-Si-Dos Cookies looks great! I snipped 2 top fan leaves to get more light to the branches. The branches are starting to spread a bit. We shall see. Roots are starting to show under her container. But only one side. I'm wondering if that is the issue with the early flower. Maybe hit bottom too quickly on one side? Gelat.OG is also looking great. She's taking quite well to her training. I snipped off the 2 largest fan leaves covering a lot of the canopy. Made a world of difference. She should start really stretching any day now. No more training is necessary maybe. Water intake is steady. I think she is just a droopy plant. Still has a bit of it. Her roots are starting to show through the bottom of her container as well. But spread out evenly. Maybe that's why she's going into pre-flower now. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.6° RH: 61.4% VPD: 1.07 kPa April 7, 2023 The end of the week and these ladies are quite healthy. Do-Si-Dos Cookies has huge calyxes. Massive leaves and hopefully massive buds too. She is still growing a bit. Water intake is steady and she'll be getting tiger bloom with her next feeding. Gelat.OG is still growing nicely. She has some stretch left in her and still 2 weeks of stretch. Hopefully. She definitely needs to build up her branches. Very thin. She's developing a lot of bud sites. Short internodal spacing. Her training is coming along nicely. Branches are all around the same height except the 2 top branches. They are standing straight up. I may pull them down and let the lower side branches get more level. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.5° RH: 55.7% VPD: 1.22 kPa
