I've let the seeds soak in a glass of water for 24h, then planted directly into the medium. They popped out in 2 days, 100% of germination rate.

Day 28 - Found some early nute burn on the lower leaves of Gelato, I think i'm fertigating too little and the salts in the coco is rising. From now I'm going to give 2L of water two times per day in order to re-clean the medium with much more run off.

Day 34 - The plants are growing strong and vigorous. As suspected the problem of the lower leaves was salts built up, now it seems fixed. Keep bending the higher branches to create a full and well structured canopy. 🙏🏻💚

Day 44 - Stretching has started! Adding at the nute solution Voodoo Juice, Tarantula and Bud Candy. There's a full canopy in the closet now 😅🙏🏻🍀🕉️ Day 47 - Girls are fuckin exploding! Light now at 80% and 33cm from the canopy. I think tonight I'll stand it a little bit higher cause I don't want to burn the top sites. Wish they don't grow over 20/30cm from now cause I shouldn't have enough space for them 😅 See what's going in the next days of stretching 🙏 Day 48 - I would never expected this growth, now i have a problem with RH. Even with the dehumidefier and an addictional fan behind the canopy, there's 62/65% RH in the closet, in the night it raises at 70% for a few hours. What should i do? Today i defoliate a little bit just to have a more air circulation and to prevent pests, but this RH levels can't be reached in the next weeks cause i risk to lose everything what i've done until now. Please, i need suggestions 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Day 50 - Added another dehumidifier to the closet and now the RH is 53/55% under the canopy and 60/62 above it. Wish it was good enough to prevent mold and pests. The ladies are growing a lot, think we'll have big chunky colas if everything goes well! 🙏😍 Day 52 - Today I defoliated the ladies a little bit to allow more light penetration 💪 Day 56 - End of week 8. The girls are doing good: the PL keep on getting weight and developping bigger flowers, the Gelato is 1 or 2 weeks behind her, she has been in vegetative stage for longer and she's still stretching! Now she is about 20/25cm to the light but she seems to handle it. Light at 85/90%.

Day 58 - Adding Big Bud Coco to the nute mix, seems that it's doing its job 😁 (Yes, I need a bigger closet 😅) Keep on growing 🙏😋 Day 63 - Haf some problems with my EC pen the last days, it wasn't clean so I overfeed a little bit but I noticed almost immediately so I've cleaned it and re-done the nute solution. Just a few tips of Gelato's leaves were burnt, nothing to worry about. I think 4 weeks from now and the Purple Lemonade will be ready for harvest, so other 5 days of Big Bud and then I'll switch to Overdrive for the final boost before ripen and flush 🙏

Day 72 - Had some pH problems the last days: I always used white wine vinegar to reduce it but this time it seems it's not stable and the nute solution pH ran from 6 to 6,5. As soon as I saw stress signs on Gelato I ordered a pH Down which should be more stable even a few days after I make the nute solution. The Purple didn't seem to be stressed: I stopped with Big Bud Coco and began with Overdrive since Day 68. In the next days I'm going to lower the PPM to 470 for a week of ripening and then begin the 10 days of flush for her 🙏

This was my first grow that I'm really happy about. I harvested more than the last run with 2 plants only with this plant. But we always can do better. Keep growing and learning 🙏🏻💜💚🕉️

Harvested at day 116, had some problems of high inflow pH at week 11 that has a little decreased the final harvest, in my opinion. But I'm proud of my job cause that was the ONLY little problem in the entire grow. Keep Growing and learning everyday 🙏🏻💚🤞🏼🕉️
