This strain proved to be a dream for a novice grower like myself. Despite my inexperience, it presented minimal challenges, making the cultivation process surprisingly enjoyable. While I haven't been able to weigh the yield yet (it's currently drying), it appears quite respectable. The aroma is particularly noteworthy - a delightful sweetness, almost reminiscent of ice cream. Though bud size could be improved, their density is impressive - think golf balls. I suspect my low-wattage lighting is the culprit here, not the strain's potential. I'll provide a yield update once the drying process is complete.
Finally harvest day. Gelato auto was a joy to grow, and has been very forgiving. I have made a lot of small mistakes thorough this grow, but she has been very resilient and forgiving. A pleasure to grow from start to finish. The buds look and smell delicious and I cant wait to try once curing is done. To be continued!
Snapped 2 branches while trying LST for the first time. Any idea how bad this is for my plant? Should I stop training to avoid more stress since I already topped her this week, or any other advice on how to redeem this mistake? 😩
It happens, you're fine. Honestly I remove those first node branches(sometimes the 2nd too)anyway as they tend to grow stretchy with large gaps between nodes. When using LST, take baby steps when working with stems that are starting to stiffen up.
You'll be fine with the lack of air movement at this stage of your grow, shouldn't cause you any issues! As long as you got a replacement fan coming at some point within too long, I would not worry😇
Congrats on your first harvest, looks like the grow went well. I have a 2x2 also, and have found that one healthy plant usually fills the space. Good move on the outdoor plant.
