Aug 31: this Gelato leans sativa and isn’t as fast as my other three plants but
she is flowering and will likely finish in time this fall. Using a 730 nm far red light as a bloom booster. A few seconds at dusk is all it takes to get the plant into dark mode 2 hours faster making it like a 26 hour day. 👍👍
Sep 2: smoky again this morning but is supposed to clear later this weekend.
Sep 5: she was blown over when I got home early from work. No damage.
Sep 6: weather data says it hit 5 C the last two nights. That station is only about 200 m away so it probably was that cold. Oh well.
@Dutchfem_Seeds, you’re right and point taken, I’ll keep an eye on it…the daytime humidity is always very low (25%)here and I’ve been spraying the leaves a few times a day with city water which is very good but high-ish pH (8+). I keep a 20 L pail of water on the go for the whole garden, to let it degas for a day before use, but sometimes I just mist from the garden hose. Should be okay, but what do you think, should I lower the pH a bit?
@Northern_Ent, at this stage with this plant height they only need about 40ml water per day. The rest of the soil should be dry/moist for best growing condition. Your plants always look awesome so i am sure you will make these a succes too. Cheers! 👌
@Dutchfem_Seeds, thanks for the comment. I’ve made the same observation about other people’s grows too, but I don’t think I’m overwatering. I likely took the pic right after watering.
We have cool overnight temps, and my plants always look small at this stage. Nice weather now and she’ll start growing quickly.
@BudBoutique, thanks. Haven’t tried any yet as I just took it down yesterday. Couple colas hanging to dry but mostly fresh frozen. I need to get an electrician in to set up my freeze dryer and once that happens I’ll be making piatella hash. I have liked Gelatos from other breeders so I’m looking forward to this one.
Wow buddy!! super nice buds
What an amazing grow so far - good job and well done 🤝
Happy Growing & cant wait for your upcoming weeks 🌱
Cheers, Bud Boutique 👩🌾
