*Week 4 - Cream Caramel* Explosive growth in the 50L bed! 🌿 Top Roots is now fully integrated, turbocharging root development. This week's highlight: strategic training! One plant got apical pruning (topped) to boost lateral branching, while another is under gentle LST – bending stems for a perfectly even canopy. Sunlight penetration is maximized, and girls are loving their organic living soil setup! #CreamCaramel #OutdoorGrow #LST #Topping #TopRoots #LivingSoil #Week4 #GrowDiaries *Semana 4 - Cream Caramel* ¡Crecimiento explosivo en la cama de 50L! 🌿 Top Roots ya está integrado, potenciando el desarrollo radicular. Lo destacado: ¡entrenamiento estratégico! A un ejemplar le hice poda apical (topping) para estimular ramas laterales, y otro está con LST suave – doblando tallos para una copa uniforme. ¡Máxima penetración de luz y las chicas aman su sustrato orgánico! #CreamCaramel #CultivoExterior #LST #PodaApical #TopRoots #LivingSoil #Semana4 #GrowDiaries

✨ Fairytale Leaves & Phenotype Magic Welcome to flowering, where potential meets reality. Both Gelonade phenos are stepping into this new phase with vigor, balance, and beauty — but one of them is telling a very special story. 🍃 Pheno #2: The Leaf Dancer This pheno has leaves that defy convention — opening in a structure that resembles a human hand folding out from the palm, each finger unfurling in elegant rhythm. Imagine: • Three central “fingers” • Each outer one splitting into three more • Forming a seven-pointed star, nested within a trinity of growth It’s not a mutation that hinders — it’s a genetic flourish. A dance of symmetry, expression, and vitality. 🌿 These aren’t just leaves. They’re art. 🖼️ We’ve captured this in photos and video — no filter needed. Just nature doing its finest work. Plant Stats – Week 1 Flower / Week 5 from Seed: • Height: approximately 40 cm • Light Intensity (PPFD): 766 µmol/m²/s • Temperature: 31°C • Humidity: 50% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • EC: 0.6 • pH: 6.1 Despite slightly high temps and VPD, the girls are loving it. They’re adapting, stretching slightly, and showing excellent turgor and coloration. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition & Soil Strategy This run is driven by a super soil base, and it’s doing the heavy lifting. That’s why we’re keeping the water feed light and strategic. 💦 Current Feed (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml → Strengthens cell walls, improves nutrient flow • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml → Supports structure and photosynthesis • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml (new this week) → Prepares for flower, encourages early bloom structure ⚠️ No All-In-One Liquid now → The slow-release pellets in the soil cover the macro-nutrient demands. → This keeps EC low (~0.6) and prevents salt buildup. We’re letting the soil biome + amendments guide the bulk of nutrition. Water is a carrier, not a crutch. ⸻ Why Switch from Start Booster to Top Booster? Start Booster = roots & early leaf Top Booster = flower signal + potassium focus This switch marks the turning point: Roots are now established, and it’s time to nudge the girls toward blooming, gently and with precision. Top Booster also enhances: • Early bud site formation • Transition metabolism • Potassium availability for cell expansion ⸻ Gear Check Everything is tuned in and working in harmony: • Lights: Future of Grow LED + ThinkGrow Model One • Controllers: TrolMaster Tent-X + Spider Farmer GGS • Airflow: • Two 6” carbon-filtered exhaust fans • One 6” filtered intake • Controlled by both ecosystems All this tech = manual precision + automated consistency ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next We’re not seeing pistils yet, but the structure is shifting. Nodes are spacing. Branches are reaching. Energy is focusing upward. Here’s what we might expect in Week 2 Flower: • First signs of pistils • Shift in leaf texture • Possible terpene expression (early scent) • Stretch phase (up to 2x height) ⸻ The Fairytale of Pheno #2 Sometimes, a single plant will speak louder than others. Pheno #2 is doing just that, not with speed or size, but with shape, rhythm, and elegance. The leaves whisper a story: Of lineage, light, and mystery. Of something old reborn in a new form. Of a garden that listens, and a grower who sees. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts This isn’t just a grow. It’s a living exploration of genetics, care, and love. As the Gelonades move toward flower, we’re watching not just for yield, but for expression. For surprises. For beauty in all forms. Week 1 of flower is quiet, but underneath, everything is shifting. Let’s walk slowly. Observe closely. Love fully. And let’s see what Week 2 has to say 🌸 With love and green respect, DD (Dogdoctor) & The Gelonade Girls 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Hi liebe Community! 💚 In den letzten zwei Wochen hat sich die Pflanze wunderbar weiterentwickelt. Der Wuchs der Pflanze ist sehr kräftig und nun war es an der Zeit, die Pflanze zu drehen, damit sich ein leicht entstandener Höhenunterschied wieder ausgleicht. So dass sich die seitlich runtergebundenen Triebe besser entwickeln können. Außerdem habe ich nun einige Sonnensegel zurückgeschnitten, damit die Pflanze ihre kompaktere Wuchsform beibehält. In spätestens zwei Wochen, wird die Blüte eingeleitet😉 Die Wachstumsbedingungen im Growschrank sind weiterhin am Optimum und Stabil: ——————— 🌞 Temp: 26°C 🌚 Temp: 20 °C 💨 RH: 68% VPD: 0,7 kPa ———————

12/15: Some plants are taking too long to transition and stretching beyond my space constraints, so I dialed the photoperiod back to 12/12. 12/16: Fed today and rotated edge plants. Added another 150w of 3000k below the canopy. 12/17: Worked on ventilation...no A/C necessary now, as I'm using another AC Infinity 6" fan to intake outdoor air into the closet whenever temps reach 75f..and it's been cold as hell outside.👍 The final trick will be to replace the 6" exhaust fan with an 8" so as to be able to fully exchange the closet air faster ...but that's gonna have to wait til next season.

It smells like my high school years. The clippings I pulled out of my pjs which is now sitting on my dresser smells fresh. Very soothing. I grew up on oil so. This evening has had me wondering how hard and how much of my plants will be needed. IF I even get there. Im hopeful. They are on their 10th day of 12/12. All six of my girls are showing white pistols. Two days before the flip they were fed veg nutes, last sat they got bloom nutes, they look good today but they have flourished a bit. I think I’ll feed them another lower dosage of bloom nutes tomorrow. I have also defoliated them a fair bit tonight. .It’s been very hard to sleep. I want the best for them. I’m trying to learn to as I can to hopefully give them that best opportunity. They haven’t stretched in these first ten days as I thought. They have stretched don’t get me wrong. Just not like people had me thinking they would. Least they had pistols at nine days. Hope all is going well with everyone’s grows!

This is a strain that is very easy to grow and resistant, after the fourth week it sticks a lug, and does not need a lot of vitamins, it grew with only 13 and 12 hours of light and went through cloudy days and a lot of humidity

Flushed the plant with water (Ph in - 6.5 / Ph out - 6.7). Next few days i'll be keeping it in darkness and cut after that. Actually i used to down ph with citric acid along all the cycle :)

Week 4: Growth Spurts and New Challenges Continued Growth and Health As we move into the fourth week, the plants are showing impressive growth. Their leaves are a lush, vibrant green, and the stems are becoming stronger. The transition to the larger 11-liter fabric pots has clearly paid off, providing the roots with ample space and better aeration. Adjusting Nutrient Levels Given their positive response to the nutrients, I decided to continue with 2/3 of Terra Aquatica Tripart feeding schedule, adjusting slightly to meet their increasing demands. Here's the updated feeding plan for this week: CalMag: 2.5 ml/l (Starting EC before adding nutrients: 0.50 mS/cm) Grow: 1.5 ml/l Bloom: 1.0 ml/l Micro: 0.5 ml/l EC: 1.2 mS/cm (600 ppm PPM-500/TDS) pH: 6.0 Each plant is watered with approximately 20% runoff to ensure there's no nutrient buildup in the coco mix. I will maintain this nutrient level until the pre-flowering stage to avoid the risk of nutrient burn due to over-fertilization. Weather Improvements and Adjustments The weather has been steadily improving, with temperatures expected to rise to around 25°C starting Wednesday, accompanied by abundant sunshine. This upcoming forecast is excellent news for my plants, as I anticipate a final growth spurt before flowering begins. Every centimeter of growth counts at this stage, and I'm optimistic about maximizing their potential under these favorable conditions. Strengthening with Wind Exposure On days with good weather, I move the plants out of the greenhouse to expose them to natural wind. This practice helps strengthen their stems, improving overall stability. Additionally, the wind creates a more challenging environment for pests, helping to keep them at bay. Smart Watering Strategy I only water the plants when the pots feel noticeably lighter. This encourages the roots to search for water, promoting the development of a stronger and more extensive root system. This method helps ensure the plants remain healthy and resilient. Pest Management: Observations and Actions At the beginning of the third week, I noticed dark discolorations on the undersides of some leaves. A few days later, these spots turned into yellow patches. I am still unsure about the cause of these spots. To prevent a potential insect infestation, I sprayed all the leaf surfaces, both top and bottom, with a mildly dosed neem oil mixture. Since then, the spots have not spread further. Because these discolorations are only affecting the lower leaves, they are not causing me significant concern at the moment. Regular inspections and preventive measures are crucial to maintaining the health of the plants and ensuring that any issues are caught early. Decision Against LST At first I have decided against using LST. But some of your comments made me try some LST on two of my plants. I choose Tangie and Gorilla cookies to try out and learn some stuff. Blue dream and Banana purple punch stay without any training. Thanks guys for your advice 👍 Monitoring and Care My daily routine involves checking the plants every morning and evening. This includes: Monitoring the moisture level of the coco mix. Inspecting the plants for any signs of pests or nutrient deficiencies. Growth Observations The plants are responding well to the controlled environment and balanced nutrition. They are growing rapidly, with new leaves appearing almost daily. The stems are thickening, and the overall structure of the plants is robust and healthy. Looking Ahead As we head into week 4, I am optimistic about the continued growth and health of my plants. The combination of a stable environment, appropriate nutrient levels, and diligent care is proving successful. I’m excited to see how they progress and adapt as they move closer to the flowering stage. Seeking Feedback and Tips Your feedback and tips are valuable to me! If you have any suggestions on how I can improve my growing techniques or insights based on your own experiences, please feel free to share them in the comments below. Let's grow together!

I still found a few places with bud rot and I keep removing every spot I see. The plants have been doing fine beside that, they are looking and smelling great, they are super dense and I can't wait for them to be ready. Most trichomes are still clear so I am awaiting for the first ambers to show up, aiming for around 5% amber and 95% milky.
