Jelly Donutz - Humboldt Seed Company

CannaArchive Environment: Seedlings were kept in a warm and stable environment with gentle airflow. Light intensity was kept low to moderate to avoid stress during the early seedling stage.🌤️ Watering: Watering was done very cautiously. The medium was only lightly moistened when needed, making sure it never stayed too wet. No nutrients were added during this week.💧 Observations: Germination itself was successful, but Week 1 turned out to be more challenging than expected. Out of three seedlings, two plants were lost during the seedling stage.❌🌱 They showed very weak early development, limited root growth, and instability shortly after emerging from the soil. Unfortunately, both seedlings collapsed and could not recover. The remaining plant stayed alive and showed better stability, although overall growth is still slower than expected for this stage 🤞🌱. Notes: This week was mainly about observation and learning. It became clear how critical the very early seedling phase is. The issues seem to be related to early root development rather than feeding or light stress. The germination process will be simplified in future runs to reduce stress and improve consistency going forward 💪🌿.

CannaArchive Growth Stage: Early Vegetative Environment: Temperature: ~23 °C Humidity: ~65 % RH Light cycle: 20/4 Light intensity: ~250–300 PPFD Watering / Feeding: The plant was grown in a 1 L pot and watered carefully with around 300 ml per watering, depending on pot weight. Only water + CalMag (Advanced Nutrients) was used during this week. No base nutrients were added. Observations: During Week 2, the Jelly Donutz was moved into the grow tent, which helped the plant recover very well from the difficult seedling stage. Growth stabilized quickly, and the plant continued its development in a much more normal and healthy way. Leaf color looks healthy, structure improved noticeably, and overall vigor increased throughout the week. Even though temperatures were slightly cooler, the plant adapted well and showed no further signs of early stress. Training / Work Done: No training was applied. The focus was fully on recovery and establishing stable vegetative growth. Notes: Week 2 was an important recovery phase. With stable conditions and gentle feeding, the plant built a solid foundation for stronger vegetative growth in the following weeks.

CannaArchive Environment: 140 × 70 tent Temperature: ~25 °C Humidity: ~60 % RH Light cycle: 18/6 Light intensity: ~350 PPFD IR light active 20 minutes before lights off and during lights on. ☀️ Medium/Pot Size At the beginning of the week, the plant was moved into its 20L final pot. The soil was prepared with BioBizz Light Mix (peat-free), Startrex, Silicium Flash, 4 BioTabs, and Mycorrhiza applied directly into the planting hole. 🌱 Watering / Feeding: Watered every 2–3 days, based on pot weight, using RO water + CalMag. 💧 No additional nutrients were given this week. Observations: Due to strong and healthy development, the decision was made early in the week to transplant into the final container. The move went smoothly, and the plant continued growing without visible stress. 🙂 Structure was slightly stretched, but overall growth looked vigorous and stable. The plant adapted well to the new environment and showed steady vegetative progress. Notes: Week 3 built a strong foundation. With the final pot, improved environment, and stable feeding, Jelly Donutz is now set up for more aggressive vegetative growth and upcoming training. 🌿💪

CannaArchive Growth Stage: Vegetative Environment: 140 × 70 tent Temperature: ~24.5–25 °C Humidity: ~60 % RH Light cycle: 18/6 Light intensity: ~400 PPFD. ☀️ Watering / Feeding: Watered every 2–3 days, based on pot weight, with approx. 1.5 L per watering using RO water + CalMag. 💧 Additionally, the plant received 1x Startrex during this week. Observations: Growth remained steady and healthy. The plant still has a slightly thin structure, but overall looks vigorous. 🌿 Leaf color is normal green, briefly a bit lighter after topping, but quickly returned to a healthy tone. At the end of the week, the plant was topped above the 4th node, aiming to keep 6 main branches. ✂️ The topping was handled very well, no visible stress reaction, and growth continued almost immediately. 🙂 Structure is now much more even compared to the earlier stretch. Notes: Week 4 was very positive. The plant transitioned from vertical growth into structural development smoothly. With topping completed successfully, the focus now shifts to recovery and branch development in Week 5. 🌱💪

CannaArchive This week was all about recovery momentum and structure building.🌿 The plant remained in vegetative stage and was allowed to push naturally after the topping in Week 4. • 6 main branches established.💪 • 4 developed nodes • Height ~15 cm • Clearly bushy structure No additional training was done this week to allow full energy allocation into root expansion and lateral growth. The canopy is starting to even out nicely. Light intensity increased to ~600 PPFD under 18/6.☀️ IR remains active and will continue throughout the grow. Leaves are visibly praying, indicating strong light response and healthy transpiration. Watering was increased to 2L per session, twice this week.💧 Slight upward trend in water demand observed. Feeding consisted of RO water + CalMag, with 1 application of Greenhouse Bio Enhance during the week. • Temps: 25°C day / 18–19°C night 🌡️ • RH: 60–62% Leaf color is deep healthy green.💚 New growth looks vigorous. Stem is still slightly on the thinner side but strengthening gradually. Overall the plant looks stable, balanced and ready to accelerate further in veg. Strong structural week with steady vegetative expansion.😊

CannaArchive This week was all about stabilization and structural balance before initiating flower 🌿 The plant focused entirely on vegetative development and responded very well. • All 6 main branches remain evenly leveled • Center canopy filling in nicely • Structure compact and balanced • Light but healthy praying observed ☀️ PPFD steady at ~600 under 18/6. Watering continued every 2–3 days based on pot weight 💧 Feeding consisted only of RO water + BioBizz CalMag to keep nitrogen input controlled before flip. • RH stable at ~60% • Night temps around 19°C • No visible deficiencies • Uniform canopy height The plant clearly shows readiness for transition. Flip to 12/12 scheduled for Week 7 🌸🔥 Strong, controlled pre-flower phase.

CannaArchive This week marked the start of the flowering phase as the light cycle was switched to 12/12, officially initiating bloom 🌸 For the first few days the plant continued normal vegetative growth, with the stretch becoming noticeable after about 3 days. By the end of the week the plant had already gained noticeable height and the early stretch phase was clearly underway. • Stretch beginning after ~3 days • Canopy mostly even with only one branch slightly leading • First few white pistils visible toward the end of the week Light intensity was increased to ~750 PPFD ☀️ and the fixture was raised slightly to maintain proper distance as the plant began stretching. Watering increased slightly as the plant entered the flowering transition: • ~3L every 2–3 days based on pot weight 💧 Feeding this week: • 1x BioTabs Bio PK • Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag Environment remained stable: • ~25°C temperature • ~55% RH 🌡️ The plant remained healthy with balanced structure and deep green foliage. The topping from earlier veg clearly paid off, as the canopy remained fairly even going into the stretch phase. Overall this week marks a smooth transition into bloom with the first signs of stretch and flower initiation 🍩🔥

CannaArchive The plant continued progressing through early flowering with the stretch still clearly active 🌸 Vertical growth increased further and the plant gained noticeable height throughout the week. • Height approx. ~80 cm • Stretch still ongoing • Canopy mostly even Light intensity was increased to ~850 PPFD and the fixture had to be raised slightly as the plant grew closer to the light. Leaf posture shows light praying, indicating the plant is handling the increased intensity well. Water demand increased slightly during the stretch phase: • ~3.5L every 2–3 days based on pot weight 💧 Feeding this week: • 1x Orgatrex • Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag Environment: • 25°C temperature • ~55% RH 🌡️ Bud sites are now becoming clearly visible across the canopy 🌿 Early flower formation has started, although buds are still small at this stage. Aroma remains very mild for now. Overall this week shows strong stretch, healthy development and the clear transition deeper into early flowering 🍩🔥

CannaArchive This week marked the transition from stretch into true flower development 🌸 The plant is nearing the end of the stretch phase, with vertical growth slowing down but not completely finished yet. • Height approx. ~100 cm • Stretch almost completed • Canopy remains mostly even after topping Light intensity was increased to ~1000 PPFD ☀️ and the fixture had to be raised slightly again to maintain proper distance as the plant continued to grow. Water demand increased further: • ~4L every 2 days based on pot weight 💧 Feeding this week: • 1x BioTabs Bio PK • Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag Environment remained stable: • ~25°C temperature • ~50% RH 🌡️ Bud development is now clearly visible across the plant 🌿 Small bud sites are forming and beginning to develop further. Trichome production has started, with visible resin appearing on both the sugar leaves and bud surfaces ✨ Leaf color remains healthy green, though slightly lighter compared to the Chicken n’ Wafflez plants. Aroma is still relatively mild at this stage. Despite being the smallest plant in the tent, the Jelly Donutz shows very strong bud development across the canopy, confirming that the earlier topping paid off 💪🍩 Overall this week marks the end of stretch and the beginning of real bud formation and resin production 🔥

CannaArchive This week marked the full transition into active bud development 🌸 The plant has completely finished stretching and is now focusing its energy on building buds and increasing resin production. • Final height stabilized around ~100 cm • Stretch fully completed • Energy directed into bud growth and trichome production Bud sites are now clearly developing across the canopy, though they are still in the early stages of stacking. Trichome production is steadily increasing, with a light frosty layer already visible on the sugar leaves ✨ Canopy management was adjusted this week. After a light defoliation in the previous week, additional leaves were removed and the plant was lollipopped to clean up the lower growth ✂️ Toward the end of the week, branches were gently spread apart using wires to improve light penetration. This significantly improved light distribution: • Each main branch now receives ~800+ PPFD ☀️ • Reduced shading compared to previous weeks Light intensity remains high and well tolerated, with light praying still visible, indicating the plant is comfortable under the current setup. Water demand remains high: • ~4L every 2 days based on pot weight 💧 Feeding this week: • 1x Orgatrex • 1x Greenhouse Bio Enhancer • Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag Environment: • ~24,8°C temperature • 47–50% RH 🌡️ Aroma has developed noticeably this week. The plant now produces a very sweet, jam-like scent, something unique and very pleasant, standing out compared to previous runs 🍓 Overall this week marks the beginning of real bud formation, with increasing resin production, improved canopy structure, and a very promising aroma profile 🍩🔥

CannaArchive The plant has now fully transitioned into mid flower and is focusing entirely on bud production and resin development 🌸 Vertical growth has completely stopped and the structure remains stable at around ~100 cm. • Stretch fully finished • Bud production increasing steadily • Stronger aroma developing throughout the canopy Light intensity remains high at ~1000 PPFD ☀️ and the plant continues to handle it well. Water demand stayed consistent: • ~4L every 2 days using RO water 💧 Feeding this week was intentionally kept very simple: • BioBizz CalMag only • No additional nutrients Environmental conditions became slightly cooler: • ~24°C temperature • 50–55% RH 🌡️ Bud development is progressing nicely. Instead of becoming extremely wide already, the flowers currently seem to be developing more in length, giving the plant a very unique structure across the canopy 🌿 Trichome production continues increasing steadily and the aroma became significantly stronger this week ✨ The smell is difficult to describe, very sweet, somewhat jam-like and fruity, with a unique “confiture” character unlike previous grows 🍓 Overall the plant looks healthy, balanced and fully focused on flower production. Resin and aroma are now becoming a major part of the grow experience 🍩🔥

CannaArchive This week the Jelly Donutz clearly entered the heavy resin and terpene production phase 🍩✨ Buds are stacking nicely across the plant and the overall flower formation became much more pronounced. • Stretch completely finished • Focus fully shifted toward bud swelling and resin production • Spear-shaped flowers continue developing across the canopy The structure remained unchanged at around ~100 cm, confirming that vertical growth has fully stopped. Instead, the plant is now investing all energy into flower mass and trichome coverage 🌸 One of the most noticeable changes this week was the increase in frost production ❄️ Sugar leaves are now heavily coated and trichomes continue spreading deeper into the buds and surrounding leaf material. The aroma also became significantly louder 👃🔥 The terpene profile is difficult to describe but extremely unique, sweet, fruity and very reminiscent of jam or fruit confiture, with a candy-like background typical of the Jelly Donutz lineage. Light intensity remained high: • Top colas receiving up to ~1100 PPFD • Lower canopy still receiving ~800–1000 PPFD ☀️ Despite the strong light intensity, the plant continues handling it well with only minimal signs of stress. Water demand remained stable: • ~4L every 2 days 💧 Feeding this week was intentionally simple: • RO water + BioBizz CalMag only Environmental conditions stayed consistent: • ~24°C temperature • 50–55% RH 🌡️ No major training or defoliation was performed this week. The branches were only slightly adjusted and supported with stakes to improve spacing and light penetration through the canopy. Overall the plant looks healthy, increasingly resinous and very aromatic, with the flowers now entering the stage where density and terpene production begin accelerating noticeably 🍓🔥

CannaArchive The Jelly Donutz continued progressing nicely throughout the week.🌸 While there were no major changes to the plant's overall structure, several smaller developments became much more noticeable as flowering continued. The buds kept building steadily and gained some additional size. Most of the growth happened in length rather than width, causing the colas to become longer and more connected. Although they have not fully swollen yet, the flowers are starting to look much more developed compared to previous weeks.🌿 One of the most obvious changes this week was the increase in resin production. Trichomes continued spreading across the flowers and sugar leaves, giving the plant a noticeably frostier appearance than before. Under the microscope, the majority of trichomes are now milky, showing that the plant is moving further into the ripening phase. 🔬 The aroma also became stronger this week. The sweet jam-like scent is still the dominant characteristic and remains difficult to compare to any specific fruit. Every time the tent is opened, the smell becomes more noticeable and fills the grow space quickly.🍓 The fade progressed significantly during the week. 🍂 Purple coloration continued spreading across the plant and is now becoming one of the most striking features of this phenotype. Combined with the increasing resin coverage, the contrast between the dark foliage and frosty flowers is becoming more pronounced. Environmental conditions remained stable throughout the week: • 24°C day temperature ☀️ • 20°C night temperature 🌙 • 50% RH 💧 Feeding was kept very simple this week. The plant received water, CalMag and a single application of Orgatrex. Water consumption remained consistent compared to previous weeks and no major changes in drinking behavior were observed. Overall, Week 13 was mainly focused on flower maturation, increasing resin production and continued color development. The plant remains healthy, the flowers continue stacking, and the sweet terpene profile is becoming stronger with each passing day.💜

CannaArchive The final week was kept very simple. She only received reverse osmosis water with CalMag before harvest. 💧 About 48 hours before chopping, I moved her into complete darkness. After harvest she was hung as a whole plant at 20°C and around 60% RH. I decided to leave all the leaves on during drying since I expected the humidity to drop over the following days. Overall I'm happy with how she turned out. The colors at the end were absolutely beautiful and she finished with a thick layer of frost. ❄️ 🍩 Final thoughts Unfortunately only 1 out of 3 seeds germinated, which was disappointing. The smoke and flavor were excellent, but I wasn't completely satisfied with the bud structure. It may just have been this particular phenotype. Despite that, she was easy to grow, stayed healthy throughout flowering and developed some amazing colors. I wouldn't mind giving Jelly Donutz another chance with a different pheno in the future. 🤙 Thanks to everyone who followed this grow! ❤️
