🌱 Lemon Cherry Gelato Auto — Week 11 From Seed (Week 7 Flower) 12/12 from seed — controlled environment, natural expression ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — From Lesson to Balance Last week reminded us of something fundamental: Not every plant finishes the race. One was removed—not as a failure, but as a decision to protect the system. And that decision allowed everything else to continue without compromise. Now, the focus is clear: 👉 Energy goes to the thriving plants 👉 The room breathes better 👉 The system stabilizes And what we’re seeing now… reflects that immediately. ⸻ 🌿 The Garden Now — Structured Power The remaining plants are not just “doing well”— They are locked in. * Buds stacking with intent * Structure holding weight * Leaves rich, deep green * Uniformity across the canopy This is what happens when: environment + root health + light = alignment ⸻ 🌸 Bud Development — From Growth to Density We are now fully in the mass accumulation phase. * Calyxes swelling and pushing outward * Buds tightening and gaining weight * White pistils (hairs) still active → signals ongoing growth ✦ White Hairs (Pistils) Those bright white hairs are not decoration— They are active receptors, still reaching, still building. 👉 As long as they stay white and upright: the plant is still pushing forward ⸻ ✨ Trichomes — Where Quality Is Built Now we enter the most underestimated phase. * Resin heads forming and multiplying * Cannabinoid and terpene production increasing * Surface becoming visibly “frosted” This is not just aesthetics— this is the plant finalizing its chemical profile. ⸻ 🌈 Color & Expression — The Signature of Health This run is speaking clearly through color: * Deep, saturated greens → strong nitrogen balance * Bright pistils → active metabolism * No early fade → engine still running 👉 No stress colors. No confusion. Just clarity in expression. ⸻ 🌿 The Inner Jungle — Controlled Chaos Even with defoliation and lollipopping: The plant keeps building inside itself. That internal jungle: * Holds humidity * Restricts airflow if unmanaged * Can become a risk zone late flower Which is why this stage becomes less about cutting… and more about managing air and space. ⸻ 💨 Airflow — The Invisible Protector This is where your setup shines. * Vortex movement (primary airflow) * Cross ventilation (breaking stagnant pockets) Purpose: → Prevent microclimates → Avoid moisture buildup inside buds → Reduce risk of mold, mildew, bud rot At this stage, airflow is not optional— it’s crop protection. ⸻ 💡 Light Strategy — More Than Just Intensity This is where your grow moves into a different level. ☀️ Top Light (Primary Driver) * Main energy source * Drives photosynthesis and bud development 🔽 Under Canopy Lighting * Supports lower bud sites * Reduces larf * Improves uniformity ⸻ 🔴 Spectrum Control — The Fine Tuning Far Red / Deep Red * Influences plant signaling (end-of-day responses) * Can support flower maturation and stretch control UVA / UVB * Mild stress → increased resin production * Encourages trichome density 👉 Used correctly, these are not “boosters” They are signals. And right now, your plants are clearly responding well. ⸻ 👀 The Grower’s Role — Observation Phase This is that moment. It looks like: → watering → checking → repeating But in reality: 👉 You are reading the plant daily 👉 You are preventing problems before they exist 👉 You are choosing not to interfere And that… is skill. ⸻ 🧠 What This Week Really Is This week is not about action. It’s about: * Awareness * Stability * Patience Because at this stage: Overdoing = damage Understanding = yield + quality ⸻ 🔮 What To Expect Next (Week 8 Flower) ✦ Expect: * Increased bud density * More visible trichome coverage * Pistils slowly transitioning (white → darker tones) * Potential first signs of fade (depending on feeding) ✦ Watch closely: * Internal humidity * Airflow effectiveness * Any early signs of bud rot (especially deep in colas) ⸻ 🤝 Shoutout — From Grower to Growers To everyone following: The OGs, the new ones, the silent watchers, the loud supporters, the skeptics, the learners, the ones trying, failing, improving… To the platform. To the genetics behind this expression. To the environment that allows it. To the sponsors supporting the journey. And to everyone putting in work when nobody is watching. ⸻ Special Mention — Mr. Baggy Out there on assignment. Smoking joints, documenting, observing… probably seeing things we don’t. Real field work. ⸻ 🌱 Final Thought Last week showed what happens when the root system fails. This week shows what happens when everything aligns. Same room. Different outcomes. Because in the end— The plant doesn’t lie. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

This was a very rough year for growers. I tackled spider mites, thrips, pm and leaf septoria. Unfortunately these needed to be taken a little early due to a number of factors. The smoke came out amazing. Closest I've come to a lb a plant. Smokes great and had that citrus taste that comes with blueberry. I am very proud of myself. I'll finish this review later. Phones dieing.

Barely feed them with terra aquatica tripart and compost tea every 2 week. They are happy and lush

📸 Die Strawberry Banana von Fastbuds hat sich in der zweiten Blütewoche gut eingependelt. Man sieht deutlich den Stretch, der nun langsam in die Blütenproduktion übergeht. Die Pflanze steht stabil, die Struktur ist offen und lässt überall genug Licht an die Ansätze. Das Blattwerk zeigt ein gesundes, kräftiges Grün, was auf eine gute Nährstoffversorgung hindeutet. Die Blütenansätze bilden sich sauber aus und man erkennt bereits die ersten kleinen Härchen an den Knotenpunkten. 📋 In dieser Woche lief alles nach Plan. Gefüttert wurde mit BioTabs Bio Pk 5-8 in einer Dosierung von 10 ml/L. Das ist eine ordentliche Dosis, um die Blütephase jetzt richtig anzuschieben, ohne die Wurzeln zu überfordern. Die Pflanze zeigt keine Anzeichen von Stress durch die Düngung, alles wirkt vital und vitalisiert. ✂️ Was beim Blick auf die Bilder auffällt, ist der Stammverlauf. Der Knick im unteren Bereich war nötig, um die Pflanze etwas flacher zu halten und das Licht besser zu verteilen – das hat sich ausgezahlt, die Wuchsform ist jetzt gleichmäßig. In den nächsten Tagen werde ich genau beobachten, wie schnell die Blüten an Masse zulegen. Jetzt heißt es, die Nährstoffzufuhr stabil zu halten und abzuwarten, bis die Harzproduktion richtig einsetzt. Läuft.

On week 2 the woolrock got some mohoo, i fixed it by putting water mixed with "safe roots" from Hydrotek directly into the rockwool superfice. After a couple days that problem was solved and the plant kept growing very well. And also i started to train the plants (lst)

Hello growers, I harvested because she had completely consumed everything in her pot, so there was nothing left to wait for. The aroma is sweet and spicy, hard to describe but very pleasant. The bud is dense and beautifully colored. Peace and happy growing! ✌️

Plants looking good, I removed two fan leaves to allow more light to reach the lower branches. Im trying to encourage horizontal growth not vertical so I try to do everything I can to coax the plant outwards and not upwards. I regularly bend the stalks downwards gently with my hands. Watered with fert again this week. Nothing else to report. Next grow im definitely gonna try main lining as always any tips or comments always appreciated -

Some of the leaves starting to yellow slightly but as it’s coming to the end I think I will let it ride out might give a little pk booster but that’s about it

What to say, every time I find myself writing about this plant, I spoke in pure romanticism, a little because I love the story and the way to do Franco the other little as his friends are honoring the memory really seriously than Full emotion because when a friend goes away you want especially bring her memory forever. Great Arjan besides being king of cannabis if a king in person, I would love to know them I admire the story of the strain hunters a lot. The Franco's Lemon Cheese, indeed I am one of which a majestic vveraeNeNe, is very very very inflated with violet nuances is very good very beautiful full of stuffing and trichomi will be ready in 7-8 weeks we are almost seeing the first colors and I would like to lend you My nose to smell it.

I really love this strain. It's very powerful and growing is quite simple. These are seeds that I've won on GD from Dinafem and I've to say thanks to both. Dinafem for the perfect seeds and GD where I've learned a lot about growing this lovely plant!

Flowering Week 22: Buds Emerge & the Great Durban Haircut Update: 10.08.2025 | Day 156 Hey Growmies, Week 22’s got both ladies playing different games – Durban’s diving into bloom while Blueberry’s still stretching like she forgot the season. Durban Poison – Flowering Fireworks She’s all business now – white pistils poppin’ everywhere and buds startin’ to stack. Weird thing? Still barely any smell. Got no clue what this girl’s gonna taste like come harvest. Today’s mission: Giving her the big haircut she needs. Gonna clear out that jungle undercarriage for airflow. Blueberry – The Neverending Stretch This babe’s still shooting up for the sky like a rocket. Almost hit 2.10m now, sproutin’ new shoots at every bud tip like she’s in permanent preflower mode. Almost no pistils visible and a very calm smell. But she's definittely the prettiest green skyscraper in the garden. Wrap up: - Weather’s playing nice – sunshine and breeze mean zero mold nightmares (for now). - Not a single pest in sight – leaves cleaner than my Sunday shoes. - Bokashi juice twice a week keeps ’em glowing. Few yellow fan leaves? Nothin’ to sweat. Next Moves - Keep Bokashi rhythm steady – they’re lovin’ that funky juice. - Hope for Blueberry’s bud forming soon (will she hit 2.20m?). Clock is ticking. - Enjoy Durban’s bud show while waitin’ for Blueberry’s grand entrance. Grower love to y’all – catch ya next week! – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

And she’s moving— just gave an ipm treatment and tip dress of kelp. I take it slow the first 2 weeks of flower then slam them with nutes in the next few weeks. Look out!✌️🏻💚
