Week 15 From Seed | Lemon Cherry Gelato 🍋🍒 | Drying, Trimming & Curing Begins Well… Here we are again 😄 Another chapter of this Lemon Cherry Gelato run officially closes, and honestly, this update feels like the moment where the entire grow finally becomes “real medicine.” First of all, once again, apologies for dividing the harvest into multiple reports lately. I know the updates have been stretched across several weeks, but honestly… with the amount of documentation, photos, macros, videos, trimming sessions, resin collection, curing observations, and extraction experiments we have been doing lately, trying to compress everything into a single update would almost feel disrespectful to the process itself. And this run deserves the proper attention. So for everyone arriving now, quick recap: These Lemon Cherry Gelato girls were grown entirely under 12/12 from seed. No traditional vegetative phase. No massive training sessions. No giant bush shaping. Just letting the genetics express themselves naturally while documenting the process from beginning to end. And what these girls became honestly surprised me. Compact plants. Thick trunks. Heavy branches. Dense stacking. Ridiculous resin production. And some seriously loud terpene expression. The previous report reflected harvest itself: - the fade, - the structure, - broken branches, - resin-covered fingers, - hanging flowers, - drying environment, - and all the beautiful chaos surrounding harvest week. This report becomes the next important stage: Drying. Trimming. Finger hash. Final flower preparation. And the beginning of cure. The girls dried for roughly 10 days under controlled conditions: - around 18–20°C, - roughly 60% RH, - with the first couple of days slightly lower around 45% to help surface moisture leave the flowers safely before stabilizing the room again. And honestly… the dry came out beautifully. Dense flowers like these always make growers slightly nervous during drying because chunky buds can trap moisture surprisingly easily. But breaking the plants into branches instead of hanging full plants ended up being absolutely the right decision here. The branches slowly reached that perfect moment growers wait for: not snapping aggressively… not bending softly… …but that beautiful little “click.” That tiny sound telling you: “Okay. It’s time.” So naturally… Mr. Baggy joined the trimming session 😄 Studio lights on. Trim bin ready. Scissors ready. Music playing. Gloves on. And branch by branch, these girls slowly transformed into jars full of finished medicine. And honestly? These plants were absurdly sticky. Not just frosty visually. Actually greasy. The kind of resin that keeps building layer after layer on the gloves until eventually you stop trimming for a moment and realize you accidentally created little hash sculptures on your fingertips again 😄 Which brings us to one of the best parts of this report: Finger hash. Or more specifically in this stage: classic trimming resin collected during dry manicure. Every session slowly left behind beautiful sticky resin on the gloves and fingers, and instead of wasting it, everything got collected carefully with patience and love. And wow… These girls made AMAZING finger hash. Soft. Oily. Extremely workable. Instantly greasy with just body heat alone. No aggressive heat needed. No real pressure needed. Just the warmth from the hands was enough to start transforming the resin into beautiful little temple balls almost immediately. That alone already says a lot about resin quality. We even documented the full process: - trim collection, - kief separation, - resin handling, - pressing, - shaping, - and the final little temple balls. And honestly, seeing the transformation from loose resin into a perfectly smooth little sphere never gets old. There’s something deeply satisfying and strangely ancient about it. The final dry numbers honestly made me extremely happy too: Plant 1: 304.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Plant 2: 163.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Total: 468 grams of dry cured manicured medicine. And for a 12/12-from-seed run? That’s honestly fantastic. Especially considering how compact these plants actually were physically. Small-ish structure… massive output. Exactly the kind of run that keeps teaching you not to judge plants purely by height. The flowers themselves turned out gorgeous: - dense, - compact, - extremely resinous, - loud aroma, - beautiful coloration, - swollen calyxes, - and surprisingly heavy for their size. The terpene profile already started evolving beautifully during trimming too. That loud fresh-harvest sharpness slowly began softening into something deeper and sweeter: - creamy citrus, - candy-like fruit, - gas, - soft cherry sweetness, - earthy backend notes, - and occasional creamy dessert-like moments depending on the jar. And this is where curing now becomes incredibly important. Because harvest is not the finish line. Curing is where flowers slowly begin becoming complete. For storage and cure, we decided to use both: - traditional glass jars, - and Grove Bags. And honestly, both have their strengths. Glass jars remain timeless: simple, effective, reliable, beautiful for long-term observation and burping routines. Meanwhile Grove Bags bring modern humidity-control technology into the process and honestly make maintaining stable curing conditions dramatically easier when used properly. The idea is not “one replacing the other.” It’s more about understanding different tools and seeing how each behaves over time. And speaking of beautiful details… Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the gorgeous storage jars with the engraved lid design because honestly… they look incredible 😄 Little details matter. Especially during cure. Because curing becomes ritualistic in a strange way: opening jars, checking aromas, observing moisture, feeling texture changes, watching flowers slowly mature week after week. The medicine almost feels alive during this phase. We also included: - trimming timelapses, - resin handling, - branch breakdowns, - finger hash photos, - hanging flower shots, - studio trimming moments, - and a bunch of closeups because honestly these girls deserved proper documentation until the very end. And next week… Next week becomes the final chapter. Smoke review. Full cure review. Flavor translation from smell to smoke. Effect profile. Breakdown texture. Ash quality. Terpene evolution. Final impressions. And the real question: How did this Lemon Cherry Gelato actually become as medicine after all this time? Because now the grow part is mostly over. What remains is experience. And honestly… that’s the most important part. Huge thank you once again: - Zamnesia, - Plagron, - the LEDs, - all the gear involved, - GrowDiaries, - the community, - the old followers, - the silent supporters, - the curious new visitors, - and everyone spending even a few minutes following these updates. And of course… Thank you Mr. Baggy 😄💙 He survived another trimming session somehow. See you all in the final chapter 🌱

What's up growmies, We reached the final stages...almost ready to cut. Its probably going to take an extra week compared to the Strawberry Cola. But the productions is maybe 30% more on this one. Veery long staked colas. Starting at the bottom of the plant all the way to the top. Sweet and fruity smells and drinking almost double the 💧 water compared to her neighbour. One more week of nutes and then another week with plain water is what she'll have probably. The root is a giant, white ball filling half the bucket space. I've used great white which from my experience is very very good. Doesn't perform miracles like Jesus though. The water temps in the reservoir needs to be in the correct range or else it almost always will develop phytium. If you can't keep the water cool ( 17/21ºC) you're better off with a steril system using H2O2. See you guys next week. Good grows

Wieder eine Woche ist rum und den Pflanzen geht es gut. Ich wundere mich nur dass GG#4 erst jetzt nach Tag 63 in die Blütephase übergeht. Sie ist wirklich sehr buschig und groß, während Runtz F1 nur halb so groß ist aber schon sehr weit vorangeschritten. Einen so starken Unterschied hätte ich nicht erwartet.

Fotos del día 53, poco que decir, las altas temperaturas siguen y al menos mantengo la humedad por debajo de 60% y muy buena ventilación, parece que el engorde sigue. Solo queda seguir manteniendo los parámetros lo más controlados posible y seguir engordando los cogollos.

2024-06.23 Look at her, such a sweet Plant. showing very good Floweringsites, growing with a super solid structure. the outdoor Girl is still outdoor, i havent decided to get her in or to plant in open Ground or in a bigger Bag.--- stll Time to think for the Moment shes standing on a sweet sunny Place. BREEDER INFO Tangerine Snow F1 Fast Feminised is a 75% sativa, four-way cross of (Boost x Tangelo) with (Lavender x Power Plant). This Fast F1 hybrid is bred from Cali genetics and boasts great citrus terps, high resin production for extracts, high levels of THC, very good yields and excellent mould resistance. Tangerine Snow F1 Fast can be grown indoors as well as outdoors. Indoor flowering times are between 8 - 10 weeks while harvest time in northern latitudes is during September while in the southern hemisphere growers will be harvesting during March. Recommended climate regions are hot, dry, humid and warm. These are tall, semi-branched plants that grow in excess of 200cm and display a high degree of vigour with very good uniformity. In common with many other heavily sativa-dominant strains, Tangerine Snow F1 Fast offers excellent resistance to mould as well as to plant pests and diseases. The combination of citrus terps and plenty of resin makes thi a very good extract strain with the 'washing' method delivering very good yields of hash. The citrus terpene profile is reminiscent of mandarins and tangerines and also has sweet candy notes. THC production has been lab-verified at a strong 24% while CBD is low. The effect is uplifting and energising, perfect for use during the day and early evening.

Was showing signs of nutrient lockout so decided to start flushing process.. amazing smell but this will be the last ever diary of disco biscuits as she has outstayed her welcome. Not as fat as I’d like her to be but still 2 weeks remaining before chop.

Been brewing my ewc tea with as many other ingredients including ewc,kelp,fishbone meal, oyster shell, crab meal, glb fish, and makos. Fed them the tea in the morning and they loved it. That being said fourth node was developing so I topped. After doing some research I may have topped to early but they seem to be bouncing back just fine actually. I did six of the seven. Last one has been slow from the start so probably won’t have much of a yield. Plan on using tea often
