2 Black Cherry Gelato BCG (love to smoke it, first time growing). Clones- from my clone guy.
1000w LED, 5 gallon xl & 15 gallon xxl Autopots,, coco/perlite 65/35, GH 3-part+ flourolicious, calimagic, SI, chelated iron, and humic acid , RO water, AC pro Controller and T8, 5x5 GG Tent with extension
Garage grow SoCal
This week I was out of town and let my grow grow. The autopots did their thing at about .6g a day for the 5g and over 1g a day for the 15g pot. I did battle multiple hot days in the garage.
We’re running just under 1000ppm with no issues. I ran out of bloom and used some powdered kool bloom and it worked well. Thinking of switching to jacks RO but it’s working so good now I don’t want to switch.
This weeks accomplishments:
I put the gelatos in fabric autopots, one 5g xl and one 15g xxl.
Scrogging to flatten the canpoy
Long term issues
Cooling and VPD targets during heat waves
Preventing pest and mold issues - my humidity crept up high when I was gone and I saw a few powder leaves which were promptly removed upon my return.
I hope you all are having as much fun as I am.
Best of luck gromies.
Check out my other purple push pop grow
I’ll be adding an outdoor light deprivation grow soon. Then we have side by side indoor versus outdoor grows in SoCal

This week the girls had a hot week in the garage averaging 88°. This week the girls started to show up to the party; bulking up and putting on weight. It’s like they stopped at Wendy’s and got a frosty overnight.
We’re running just under 1000ppm with no issues. I’m having reservoir funk issues so I’m switching to jacks RO this week. 1g a day.
This weeks accomplishments:
Split electric load (safety)
This week:
Switch nutes upgrade reservoir and lines next week.

Just posted my outdoor light dep grow - side by side with my indoor grow- same clone batch. Purple push, pops and black cherry gelato inside and outside . Garage versus backyard . This should be a great comparison of indoor versus outdoor grows side by side

Another hot week in the garage averaging high of 88°.
We just put in AC dehumidifier and we brought down the temp to 70 Degrees and 48% relative humidity with lights on for ripening. The girls are starting to finish the ripening stage and ready to cut the tops.
Smell is unbelievable sweet and dank.
As we’re at the final few days we’re running straight Jacks RO.
This weeks accomplishments:
AC for ripening
Eradicated the Spider mites by doing manual scouting and removal every day.
Long term issues
None. We’re just about done.
I hope you all are having as much fun as I am.
And thanks to my beautiful fiancée for her patience and scouting talents.
Check out my purple push pop grow and compare side by side- same clone batch. I also am doing an outdoor light deprivation run. This should be a great comparison of indoor versus outdoor grows on the same schedule, same nutes and same clone batch 👍
