watered with lemon for ph down and recharge.
had to stake the c4. too much stretch. light was too far away.
harvested 4 plants.
collected feminized pollen from c4 branches treated with colloidal silver.
so far i really like the structure of the gelato. stout and strong. too much foliage. a ton of leaf. but it produces grenade buds.
more sweet skunky smell than the blackberry and c4 which smell rich and fragrant like perfume.
3 more plants should be ready by end of week to harvest.
wont know dry weight for a week or 2.

*UPDATE*
Top dressed with dte bio-live and dr. earth grow at half strength.
watered with lemon for ph down, botainicare cal/mag/iron at a little less than full strength and recharge.
Harvested a blackberry after 48 hrs of dark. Smells wonderful. Very fragrant/perfume smell.
Two c4 plants are almost ready for harvest. not enough amber trichomes yet.
1 c4 is in 48hrs dark for chop.
*this website wont let me update my day/night temps for some reason.

Harvested c4. Pretty big yield.
two c4's left.
Germinating photo-period seeds.
Unknown local old head genetics.
Might try to turn these into autos.
My Auto plants at week 6 have formed pistils.
I don't feel like they are quite mature enough to pollinate yet.
I am basically at the halfway point of this grow. I don't want to miss the window to have fully mature seeds.
Any pollination methods/advice?
It usually takes 4 to 6 weeks for auto seeds to mature so you have some time. I would give them a week or 2 to grow more pistils before pollinating. Don't stress about the seeds maturing because you can run seed making plants a few weeks past when you would normally harvest. I have pollinated autos 4 weeks into flower and got good seeds. I did a diary on making autoflower seeds you can check out also. Good luck!
i installed a 6" exhaust fan and carbon filter.
its trying to suck the entire tent up.
i have one 4" vent hole. it isn't enough.
what should i do? on a budget.
I'm sorry to say this but on a budget I think you may have to cut some holes... Still shouldn't let the smell out as long as you don't cut too many and the exhaust fan is always running....A better tent could also take care of your needs depending on budget. I hope this helps....I would say smaller fan but I think even that would fail with a 4 inch vent... happy growing ✌️👊
Some lovely buds on those ladies. Fat and frosty buds with dome lovely color. Fantastic work. Keep doing what your doing and may the ganja growing gods protect your ladies till the end growmie.
