The blue gelato 41is not doing so well, but I just made some recent changes. Light has been switched to 20/4 from 12/12 from previous week's due to my last plant finishing up from first grow, from random bag seeds. This week I cleaned my tent lowered the light on the 24th of the month to 21 inches. Purple punch and the gorilla zkittles coming along strong and healthy, however the gelato is still showing some symptoms, maybe over watering perhaps wasn't getting enough light, not sure but I will be transplanting soon so I hope she does better in a bigger pot. I already have the coco ready mixed with worm casting and couple of Gia Green's products, all purpose, Glacial rock dust and oyster shell flour.

This Pheno produces lovely phat calyx’s. Introduced bloombastic so watch them fatten up soon!

Harvest day First off, I have to apologize to everyone who was following the weekly updates life got crazy, and this girl got way too big to keep moving in and out of the tent for photos. She dried under great conditions around 18–21°C with 55–60% RH, total darkness, and steady airflow for that nice slow dry. Buds… frosty, dense, and absolutely covered. The smell was sweet, citrusy, and loud! 😍 The smoke matched it perfectly smooth, flavorful. Definitely one I want to run again, and next time I’ll give her the attention she deserves from start to finish.

Buenas a tod@s... Bueno otra semanita más de estas hermosas nenas, ya más grandes y empezando a desarrollar sus frutos, la verdad q están creciendo muy bien, sin problemas, aunq hay veces q la temperatura este un poco alta las voy controlando y van muy bien, este cultivo yo creo q promete para bien... Me gusta ver buenos resultados cada vez q empiezo un cultivo nuevo, super contento y las niñas tanbm... 🙌🏻🙏🏻💀😎💪🏻 Buenos humos para tod@s...🔥🔥💨💨 🇦🇷🤝🏻🇪🇦

Welcome to week 9 of my grow diary. In the middle of the week, I decided to pull the four main shoots apart using plant wire and binder clips, as the side shoots in the middle weren't getting enough light. Fortunately I couldn't find any more mildew. The weather continues to be great. See you next week!

Transplanted to 40l container on week 4 day 1. Container has approx 30l in it. Also added a photo of the setup for size reference. Let me explain my thinking behind the repotting strategy. Firstly I should say that I am quite an old school kind of grower, although I've never grown cannabis before I have grown hundreds of other plants. Due to my experience with other plants, I understand the value of well planned and executed transplants, they can have an absolutely transformative effect upon root systems when done properly, as far as I know it's the main reason why they are done at all. It is fair to say I have never grown any auto-flowering plant indoors before, and I have read all about how you should not transplant autos, and all the good reasons why not. Ultimately though, as I am not called UnorthadoxDude for nothing, I believe that I can make it work with an auto, and get the benefit of improved root growth pattern, without delaying or interrupting the growth. I want to have my cake and eat it, as it were. So the strategy is to avoid transplant shock, which admittedly I have already failed in the first unplanned transplant, but in my hopeful naivety I still believe I can make the second one work! I'm using coco, and I have had the larger pot prepared and have been watering and feeding them as well as the plant. If I am careful not to disturb the plant at all, and move the entire contents of the pot gently into the larger pot (which is exactly the same medium in broadly the same state), then I may be able to avoid shocking the plant and just let it crack on. We will find out in a few days! If it stops growing or slows at all then I failed, otherwise it worked! A note about my use of organic nutes with coco. I have read a lot about coco and nutes and microbes and PH and TDS and what have you, and I know that the overwhelming majority of people believe that you can't or at least shouldn't use organic nutes with coco. The thing is, I like organic gardening, I prefer to cultivate a beneficial microbiota and keep it healthy. I recycle, and reuse all my compost except where a plant is diseased and this has worked well for me for a long time. I've never grown with coco before though, I always used soil. I wanted to gain the benefits of coco (better drainage, more air to roots, lighter, less inviting to pests, etc) - but I wanted to use a method of nutrition that I was already familiar with. I think I've mentioned that I am not called UnorthadoxDude for nothing, so I am using BioBizz and coco. By adding bacterial, mycorrhizal, and trichoderma inoculants and having the unplanted coco in the tent being fed and watered I hope to have cultivated a nice microbiota which will feed my plant. That's the theory. However just in case, I have a trick up my sleeve. Now, I do not know if you are aware of this, but there is a fiery debate raging on the internet about using BioBizz organic nutes with coco for cannabis. Some people try it, most people shout it down, and I have not found much in the way of solid evidence of it being a good idea. Except one! I found a commercial grower that has used biobizz nutes, and he said that as long as you are using "Acti-Vera" you can use anything from the BioBizz organic range. Apparently the enzymes in the mix break down nutes chemically in a similar way to what the theoretically missing microbes do. So I have ordered a bottle of that, and if my microbial cultivation attempts don't work out, I at least know I have a fallback that should work. Those are my thoughts on it, let's see how it pans out. Oh I should also probably point out that I am growing some companion plants, specifically alfalfa (nitrogen fixing), basil (improved flavour), and German Chamomile (increased essential oil production). Update week 4 day 2 dropped PH to 5.8 after advice from a grow question. Look! It's carried on growing... maybe there was no transplant shock? Update week 4 day 3: Growth continues, interveinal chlorosis lessening. Plant is pushing out node five at the moment. Update week 4 day 4: Growth continues, interveinal chlorosis further lessening. Apologies for the poor quality photos for the last few days, I was lazy and didn't want to move everything out to photograph. Today I have done that and the pic is better. I am declaring the second transplant a complete success. I do not believe that plant was in any way shocked. Update week 4 say 5: I think I've finally managed to overwater. Going to skip watering today. Update week 4 day 6: Photo taken just before lights on hence wilting. Growth continues to accelerate. I believe the alfalfa has been raising the PH so I've removed it. Today I will flush through with PH lowered water and then fertigate. The colour is still too pale but the growth and overall look and feel of the plant screams to me that it's happy and about to explode. Day 27.5 flushed with 30l of PH lowered water then fertigated with 5l. Day 28: Height 12cm Width: 28cm Nodes: 6 Weekly growth data: From 5cm Height to 12cm +140% From 12cm Width to 28cm +133% From 4 primary nodes to 6 +50% Summary: Wow, wow. Wow. What else can I say. What a crazy week, amazing and unexpected given the problems. I am really excited to see what happens over the next seven days!! It looks like it has quite severe chlorosis, but otherwise seems robust and is seriously stretching. Almost unbelievable growth. Pre-flowers appeared a few days ago, so I guess this was the final week of veg. Let's see how the first week of flowering stretch goes! Update 7/2/23: My instincts about this plant on week 4 day 6 were absolutely correct, she was happy and, she was about to explode. Since my early attempts at transplanting, I practiced multiple times with Citronella (a photoperiod plant) and then I did it again with an auto (Polly) - this one went flawlessly and further demonstrates that you can transplant an auto without shocking it. Time will tell, because I can compare Polly to both Misty and Nesia both of whom were sown directly in their final pots.

They are looking happy and healthy. The growth is consistent and I'm looking forward to seen them start flowering. I haven't seen any kind of bugs or pests yet.

Day 50 - growing well a. what an interesting plant! she is small, but mighty! b. I think we are going to have some flowers soon, still hard to tell c. she should stretch up a bit this week, the stem is so thick on this plant d. this has been so interesting grow! These buds will be HUGE! e. added in GH Bloom (Pro Bloom) with this mornings 1.5L feed Day 51 - growing very well a. she is drinking so much water, the same amounts as if she was a monster b. per advice of fellow growers I will not be blowing the ppms out of the water like normal for this plant (but I might anyway, hehe) c. i can see the future flower sites forming Day 52 - growth explosion overnight a. she is drinking alot of water right now! b. I hope this plant goes for 120 days! Day 53 - tops are emerging a. she has about 10 tops that are emerging from the shrub b. the smell is so strong c. removed the CO2 generator as flowering is beginning d. i will remove about 10 big fan leaves today, they are not getting any light, and are crowding up the airflow Day 54 - wow! a. she is growing very well! b. i lowered the LED to 40cm, at 100% intensity, the tops are begging for light! c. we are going to have some big buds for sure! d. removing those large old fan leaves really proved to cause her to explode in growth Day 55 - she is really reaching! a. everything is going well with the she hulk, she is really hulking out everywhere b. she looks like she is begging for more nutrients, so I may just say fuck it and blast her to the moon with nutes! Day 56 - she is eating everything I put into the DWC a. the nutrient intake has become really high, the ppms are dropping so hard b. keeping the PH at 6.5, she is growing like a monster

4/30/25 one of the plants R3 got the chop at day 54 of flower and has been trying for 2 days. The rest of the plants are still producing pistils and seem to have atleast a few weeks left but we shall see.

Corrected a few minor issues and she seems to be getting on well now. Hopefully i should see some steady and quick growth few minor problems at the start with light leaks causing algae but quickly rectified. Roots are looking healthy and are reaching through to the water. Back with an update soon. Day 26 - well on her way now, growth occuring everyday, currently at 1.32 EC and around 6.1 pH. Roots have exploded since two days ago. If i kerp this going garvest time will be the best ive ever had and ive had some good harvests in soil/coco. But yeah, very please so far. Updaye soon Day 27 - Dropped the EC slightly down to 1.28 as she was looking a bit toxic, pH seems more stable now but might lower the EC again slightly. Ill see how it goes for now.

Settimana meravigliosa, caldo estivo arrivato! Crescono tutte in maniera impeccabile e molte sono di tipo XXL ! Resinose e appiccicose e molto profumate ormai si riempiono di infiorescenze dure e spettacolari! Resistono e sembrano soddisfare ogni esigenza. Molto abbondanti e facili da gestire non manca molto alla fine! Complimenti ai creatori di queste varietà! Sono felice! Un abbraccio a tutti!

Organic living soil mixed by myself while mixing the local organic matter : ) For example: Earthworm casting / Bat guano / Seaweed power extract / perlite / peat / coco / soil / fungi needed And water when dry.

All and all the plant was great but I would probably not grow again. It had a much slower flower time and really struggled.

so here we are right at the end, smelling of beautiful fruits and some gassy fuel and cherry and orange aromas making it feel christmassy already, fading beautifully as i lowered the temperature and started to feed with only water! so in a few days ill chop these girls maybe weekend maybe after! whenever it suits because they are about 90% ripe! with these clonesi defoliated differently! far right was intensive, middle less and far left alot lot less to see if it actaully makes a difference to flower production being that its wasted energy or stored energy! well im here to tell you it makes very little difference but looks good!
