Things looking almost perfect other than INSECTS!!!!!😱 girls have been sprayed top to toe. I’ll continue to observe. But yes other than that great. The gelato are very big plants going outwards and upwards, all possible flowering spots seem to be taking and slowly covering in pistils😍😍😍 Fliwering has commenced ✌️🏻😬✌️🏻 The plants really bulking out now looking good and strong. And really are covered in flowers. They will get a new flowering light and a little more space to grow tomorrow 😍😍😍😍 hopefully great tings will follow. I’ll be using New Millennium Decision on the girls for a few days in the next couple of days, they really are as tall as they should go.🤔 New light in and tings looking good. After a couple of days under the new light the plants seem more than happy. It’s quite a slim line light too so I’m afforded a little extra room up top in case da girls decide to stretch anymore. Things seem to be settling down now and pistils are multiplying quicker by the day. Got a pleasant smell coming from the stems and leaves, very soft and non aggressive possibly a softer take on GSC coming through, but my nose although huge isn’t that good at picking up subtleties in the aromas it grabs a hold of. The girls really are looking strong and vibrant and seem to be wearing their new found flowers well.

Welcome Back!💚 Nach der sechsten Blütewoche konzentriert sich die Pflanze voll auf die Blüten- ähhhh Samenproduktion! Ja leider. Es sind einiges an Seeds die sich entwickeln. Den es haben sich doch viele Hermaphroditensäckchen gebildet. Größtenteils doch auch unbemerkt, da ich die Pflanze ständig abgesucht und kontrolliert hatte. Leider wohl doch... Scheint als wäre die Genetik trotz der stark wissenschaftlichen Absicht irgendwie instabil. Ist bereits der zweite Versuch und Zack schon wieder. Naja, ich werde sie dennoch fertig Growen, da ich auf jedenfall auf das Wirkspektrum gespannt bin. Und jetzt die Pflanze zu kappen, dafür wäre mir die Arbeit zu schade Die Pflanze ist von der Beschreibung her nicht darauf getrimmt viele Trichome auszubilden, da dass Hauptaugenmerk ja auch auf die THCV Produktion gelegt wurde. Ich hoffe dass sich die Samenproduktion in Grenzen hält Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind ok: ————— 🌞 Temp: 26°C 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 56% VPD: 1,10 kPa 😎 PPFd: 830 mqm ————— Viele Grüße 👋

Week 6 of flower is done and the 4x4 is progressing nicely! The buds are all starting to fatten up, I'm especially loving Hella Jelly #1, especially the candy terps she's giving off. The Vanilla Frosting is the other big player in the tent, with the second Hella Jelly a bit smaller than the other two. The Jelly Donutz will be the last to be harvested, as she is developing her flowers more slowly. This tent will be a staggered harvest when it comes to it. These plants have been so easy to grow this run. The Autopot Tray2Grow living soil bed bed has been solid throughout the run, and this past week I installed Blumat Blusoak tape for the 2x4 Grassroots bed, which, up until this point, I have been hand watering. It always amazes me how automatic watering eliminates like 90% of the tent work. It is such a game changer, and the plants love it even more than hand watering because they drink how much they want when they want it! Hella Jelly is supposed to be a fast finisher (45 days sometimes!), so after this next week I will begin checking trichomes. My guess is another 2-3 weeks at least. The trichomes will guide me! Happy growing, growmies! 😎

Diese Woche war uns der Wettergott nochmal hold und hat uns super Sommerwetter beschert....😎 Den beiden hat das natürlich sehr gut gefallen und sie haben sich super gemacht.😁 Der Nachzügler der beiden, ist bis auf ca.20cm an die erste Lady rangekommen und hat auch schon eine stattliche Grösse erreicht...... Die grössere der beiden wächst nicht mehr ganz so schnell, dafür sind ihre Buds auch schon viel grösser und mächtiger.😎 Freue mich schon auf den Rest der Blüte und kann die Ernte kaum noch erwarten.😜 Ich hoffe, es läuft so problemlos weiter und das Wetter bleibt stabil.😎

Week 11 of flower, 10% amber trichomes 90% milky, waiting a bit longer as I want a bit more amber.

Honestly not much to say about the dry and trim, which is definitely a good thing. 12 days hanging in the tent, and the plants were ready to trim. me & the Mrs. absolutely sailed through it. Stores like a dream, and smokes the same. Not a crazy amount of flavour, but the aroma that it has is lime and cream. And the taste is more earthy and spicy. Loving and savouring every bit of it. Sorry I’m very late with this, but I’ve been busy getting my next plants started! You should see them come up soon, as I’m quite behind in my posting. I’m very happy! 🤟💚

So, I started another Northern Lights auto grow, because it is very beneficial for my wife with Autism, where some strains make her a little anxious, Northern lights has a relaxing and calming effect on her. She has been put in soil on the end of day 3. The soil mix used is 5L of Plagron Promix (non-fertil.), 5L of Coco and 1L of perlite in a 11L Gronest pot. I kept 1L of the soil aside, and mixed the rest up with 7 tblsp of organic living soil fertilizer by Ecostyle. I made a potsized hole in the soil, and added the 1L unfertilised soil into the hole to accommodate the seedling through here first weeks of life. Day 4 & 5: No sign of her wanting to pop out just yet.

Buds are bulking up! Watering pots separately as the soil dries out. Watered in some Microbial Mass to give the soil more available microbes.

Sorprendido gratamente del resultado final tanto de producción como de sabor/efecto.

Few days into flowering and the lower internal nodes are already stretching up through the trellis. Hope they keep stretching for another week before they start bulking up.

Another week done, finished up week 6 of flowering, week 10 of the whole grow. The buds are continuing to fatten up, inching closer and closer to harvest. Noticed the first few Amber tricombs on some of the upper buds, going to be leaning off the big bud and switching to overdrive to help aid in ripening and the final bulk. I’d like the run them another 4 weeks giving them a full 9-10 weeks in flower. But will judge harvest on a near 45/55 or 50/50, Cloudy/amber tricomb production.

BEAUTIFUL!!! I Think the issue was CAL def like i was thinking but I'll give it a few more days before i can confirm the problem is fixed. the scrog is looking really really nice!!! learned alot from my previous mistakes. keeping the temps down and not doing the co2 early the plants are nice and low and more compact. The Co2 has been started as well!

.

What up everyone. Weekly update on these ladies. This week they've done good, seeing growth and new leafs. I did see some white spots on a leaf or two so I'll up my ipm to twice a week until I know they're pest free. Over all I'm happy for the weeks to come as the outdoor season is in full swing.

Hope the tops wil develope more , 2 weeks to go.

Día 86 (01/01/2024) Riego solo con H2O con pH ajustado 6,21 Día 87 (02/01/2024) Avanzando hacia la cosecha. Observo algunos tricomas ámbar 😁 Día 88 (03/01/2024) Al inspeccionar y tocar los cogollos, vuelven a salir los aromas a skunk y naranjas. Delicioso! 😍 Día 89 (04/01/2024) El aroma se está volviendo complejo en esta recta final, como naranjas, skunk y con toques picantes de fondo. Impresionante 😍 Día 90 (05/01/2024) Mañana la cosecha! Hoy le tocaría riego, pero como mañana es la cosecha, la dejo con 24 horas de estrés hídrico. Día 91 (06/01/2024) Al final cosecharé un día más tarde. Los tricomas están prácticamente perfectos, con la mayoría nublados y alguno ámbar Día 92 (07/01/2024) Día de la cosecha! 😍💥💨😁 Peso húmedo 150 Increíble rendimiento para 92 días desde semilla, y con el estrés hídrico de los dos últimos días Ahora comenzamos el proceso de secado (7-10 días) donde pondré la semana de la cosecha, y posterior curado (+30 días), tras lo que tendremos el informe de humo Gracias a todos los que estais al otro lado de este diario!

Coming to the finish line. Not sure if the plant really got better after the lockout, it is running without nitrogen so yellowing/losing leafs is to be expected anyway. Planning to chop in exactly 10 days.
