Unfortunately don't have any germination pics but have this picture from around week 1 or so.
Still fairly early in the season currently starting it indoors before moving outdoors.
Only feeding plain water for now
Week 4 for gelato 41, shes been topped at the 4th node & has also been transplanted into 5L pot😎The new growth is coming in hotttt compared to last week.
Week 5 for gelato 41, Shes been topped a few times. Still only getting fed plain water, its going to be time to introduce some FPJ soon to her feeding. Also have a few colder days coming up this week so will start to transition slowly to outdoors but not yet to its final outdoor home isnt ready yet, still getting a few things setup where she will have her new home.
Mind the colouring in the picture/video as i try to make them less yellow from the HPS light😂
Week 6 for Gelato 41
Besides the sad injury she suffered from her accident (losing a main top branch), shes really starting to take off at a rapid pace wouldn't say its the same plant from the week before.
Shes definitely a bushy girl, the bottom branches have fully caught up to the tops. Going to start training her a bit size ways now as she clearly favours getting bushier.
Also gave her some outdoor sun for 3 days in a row as we had some cloudy days to start hardening off her leaves, but not fully transitioning fully outdoors just yet.
Week 7 for gelato 41,
She's been topped a few more times now as you can see she's really pushing her size, I'm still stretching her out size ways.
Nothing too crazy to report from here besides I've been giving her an extra 4/5h in sun light to start to harden her off a bit before moving her outside to her final pot (which may be end of this month but we'll see)
Week 8 for Gelato 41,
This girl has been topped yet again... shes now got 16 tops 😎, also gave her a nice strip on the lowers to show some stretch to the tops.
Really looking forward to putting her in her 250L pot outside which will be coming up in the next 3 days or so as she's getting a little too wide to be in my indoor tent😂 Been giving her 4/5 hours of sun to get her ready for those 33 degrees+ outside temp.
She's also now being fed with FPJ every watering which ATM is probably every 3/4 days.
Week 9 for Gelato 41,
She was transplanted into the big 250L pot mid last week to my outdoor spot, she doesn't look like shes grown much since last week but i think its because how big her new pot actually looks compared to the 5L pot but shes definitely bigger😂
The mulch to keep her soil cool is just straight up hay (going for as low spending costs as possible) which i had laying around the garden already from a few years ago😇
Shes getting sprayed every morning at sun rise to help with pests... as my other plants around her are having aphid issues but haven't had to kill any off of her funnily enough.
Week 10 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers
Seems like she's finally settled in her new pot as the new growth is pushing back in, she's getting wider for sure. I've been defoliating a little here & there just the stuff not getting any light on the bottom.
Wont be topping for a while now really going to let her do her thing for a while before any thing else is done to her.
She's still getting fed FPJ. 😎
Week 11 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Shes getting old now 😂 She got another defoliation since last week nothing too crazy but she was getting swamped with new growth on the bottom branches. Still pulling her side ways... can finally say shes reached the edges of her pot.
Been feeding her less water...last week she was fed once trying to get the roots to really push in size so she can hold herself up when flowers come in later on. 😎
Week 12 of Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Just look at that growth😂 Shes been loving the rain it looks like 😍 Showing no pest issues... showing no nutrition issues either. Her colour is beautiful 😍 Letting her soak up all that rain water from the pot. Probably wont water for 7days to see how she does.
Have Still been morning spraying them when its not pouring with rain. Also topped her on a branches they i felt like needed it.
Week 13 for Gelato 41 by Seedstockers
What a monster she's becoming... cant believe she still has 2/3 months of veg to go😂😂 Hasn't been fed in 2 weeks only when nature rains on her😎 Still going to be pulling her side ways while i have room to do so & bending some branches in the middle to give her nice an even growth distribution. Have some ugly jumping spider friends keeping her clean from any unwanted buddies👊 Not going to defoliate at all this week i don't think just going to keep letting her do her own thing! Think its safe to say the roots are nicely settled in her big pot😂 The excitement for this girl to go into flower is REAL definitely going to be 64+ tops on her.
Week 14 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers
This girl has absolutely loved the rain😇 It was very heavy rain too so the pot is easily saturated... honestly don't remember the last time i had to water her😂 was maybe 3/4 weeks ago & don't plan on doing so any time soon either.
I tried to defoliate a little because she's getting overly bushy but found to be harder to do than i expected need her to gain some height so i can easily spot what to remove.
Even though she looks sad after being sprayed down with water it will benefit her in the long run toughening up her branches from the weight when it comes to flower time.
Need to measure her but she's not too far from the 2meters wide mark i was aiming for. No pest issues think the predator spiders are taking care of that for me😎
Week 15 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers
She got a MASSIVE defoliation... session done to her. She looks a little naked as of now but she will bounce back nicely by next week😇 She really needed it, it was so bushy before you couldn't even put your arm into the plant to figure out what was what😂
Oddly enough 30% of the plant seems to be in pre-flower when the rest doesn't... She does get shaded the quickest in the garden but wouldn't expect her to be flowering already...
Still hasn't been watered since the rain last week but i may have to give water once this week as we have 40+ degrees incoming 😰
Week 16 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers
Shes bounced back from her massive defoliation... handled the heat well.
Its a little hard figuring out when these 250L pots need to be watered/how much water they actually need😅 I gave her 7L of water yesterday afternoon but the temps are staying in the low 40's this upcoming week so ill be giving her more water this evening too.
Want to pull her apart again very soon but to be honest im running out of space for her to get any bigger😬😂
Week 17 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
All photos were taken on 0.5x because the plant just doesn't fit in the picture frame... She's getting too big😂 I just want her to flower now i don't think i can take her getting any bigger than she currently is.
Last week was another hot hot week but we are coming down to the low 30's again for the rest of the upcoming week so think the plants will be happier.
Im not sure whether to just leave her be & not defoliate but at this point learning as i go along because ive never grown something so large. 😅
Week 18 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers
She's just becoming a monster... i know i went through a period of barely feeding her... well this week she's been fed 5-7L of water plus heavy heavy sprays every night😂 so a bit of a change up she doesn't seem phased either way. Im a little worried when it comes to flowering because she barely/never gets wind & her branches aren't very strong. Which is one of the reasons I spray them heavy every evening to build some strength. She also needs a nice defoliation again to keep PM away + also need to start thinking about giving her flower dry amendments top feed because i think she's partly going into flower because of the shade.
Week 19 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Shes just getting so big, she was defoliated again at the start of the week & was given a dry amendments bloom feed by greenhousefeeding. And shes being fed 10L of plain water every morning.
Week 20 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Shes been getting 10L of water every Morning when the sun is shining on the plant.
As its getting '14hours' of day light but spends its day in shade after 4pm so hard to say when they will actually all be flowering.
She was fed Bio enhancer by greenhouse feeding & also a foliar feed of it the day after. Seemed pretty happy with it.
Also seems to be the only plant not getting eaten by crickets...
Planning on giving her another defoliation some time this week.
NO VIDEO AS THERES AN ISSUE WITH GROW DIAIRES.
Week 21 for Gelato 41 by Seedstockers
She's very clearly in pre flower now that she's throwing pistils everywhere😎
Had a little accident with her where 1 of the top branches snapped off from being pulled down too low...but we live & learn.
Really hoping her stretch isn't too crazy because im running out of headroom for her soon.😰
Grow Diaries still not letting me upload video footage...
Week 22 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
She's got bud sights absolutely all over her😍 She's just over 2 meters tall 3meters in diameter!
Got 1 foliar feed of BioEnhancer then a proper feed as well the next day.
Its been extremely hot my side this week, been getting a lot of forest fires by me so plants were covered in ash😕
STILL CANT UPLOAD VIDEOS TO GROW DIAIRIES😐
Week 23 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Shes just stretching so much... from last week she grew straight into the chicken net ceiling i have, had to add another pole to hold it higher. Easily stretched another 20cm in 7 days or less.
Shes really starting to get working on the trichome production which she has quite abit of on her fan leaves too! 😍
At this point ive stopped spraying her with water every evening just as an encase because some parts of her are extremely leafy which i can reach... 😅
Has been getting fed 10L a day of plain water.
STILL CANT UPLOAD VIDEOS TO GROW DIAIRIES😐
Week 24 for Gelato 41 by Seedstockers,
Just look at that trichome production... im quite impressed wasn't expecting it, just hoping they really put on some size😅
She got a major major defoliation this week, there was way too much shade being created on top of bud sights.
Weather has been a little easier on the girls but were about to have 40+ again for 4 days in a row, this girl gets no shade so will be in direct sun light most of the day!💀
So lets hope her sativa genetics save her in the sun light😂
Also got a feeding of BioEnhancer soil drench. They really spark up after being fed.
Week 25 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Incredible frost production... 😰 Shes starting to dense up her buds too so hopefully some really dense buds to make it easier to trim this super leafy plant 😂
Weather is getting better so ill be giving way less water to her.
Week 26 for gelato 41 by seedstockers,
The weather has improved its not as hot as last week... but we've been getting rain the last day + more coming this week which isn't ideal at this point in flower especially as my plants get low air movement.
Also been having a caterpillar issue😒for the last week so have actually lost about 10% of the yield already to bud rot from the caterpillars poop..
Ive been picking them off everyday seems to be getting better but we'll see.
Week 27 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Shes survived the caterpillar attack 😂 Have found a few spots from bud rot from high humidity cant really help that as weather has been terrible just storms after storms of heavy rain 😐 dark clouds not much sun, we still have more rain coming with highest of 21 degrees...😒
Shes coming very close to her harvest window maybe 2 weeks time. Shes probably ready to come down but i want to push it a little longer because of those sativa traits.
Week 28 for Gelato 41 by seedstockers,
Made the decision on the safe side to chop down most of the ready looking branches because the weather was meant to get really bad with a rain storm all week so i chopped down the top 50% of the plant for safety as i had already got bud rot from humidity.
Left the bottom 50% to continue getting sun/to dense up a bit.
Week 29 for gelato 41 by Seedstockers,
Just my luck after the week long rain storm the weather really improved... do regret harvesting the first 50% of the plant already as the buds have developed more than i expected changing with added purple notes.
Im 'flushing' with (WCA) Water Soluble Calcium with every water feeding.
Was a very easy going grow barely had to care too much about her. Did get bud rot in the end but maybe 5% of total yield maybe even less so don't considerate it too bad with the amount of rain we had in late flower.
