Gracias al equipo de Barney's Farm y a MarsHydro por las donaciones. Con un giro totalmente único, Barneys Farm continúa su búsqueda en la creación de una genética pionera con nuestra propia Strawberry Cheesecake Auto. Después de una extensa cría selectiva con nuestras diversas cepas ricas en terpeno de fresa, elegimos un sutil y seductor fenotipo Strawberry Pie. El laboratorio luego cruzó esto con un raro corte de una Afghan OG. La infusión de éstos rasgos Kush dominantes de Indica garantiza un crecimiento rápido, capacidades de producciones increíbles y una fuerte estructura. Cruzar ésta creación con nuestro BF Super Auto #1 significa que Strawberry Cheesecake Auto también puede prosperar en climas más fríos, es perfectamente compacta y completa su ciclo de vida en un abrir y cerrar de ojos. Durante su etapa de crecimiento nuestra Strawberry Cheesecake Auto es típicamente modesta antes de que el rápido crecimiento de sus ramas florales de forma contundente se extienda, sus hojas de color verde oscuro eventualmente se transforman produciendo hermosos tonos púrpura profundos. Como era de esperar, se trata de una planta resinosa muy pegajosa con flores anaranjadas profundas cubiertas de una gruesa capa de tricomas. Los aromas son bastante intrigantes, queso dulce de cabra con toques de "old school Skunk" rematado con sutiles notas de hachís de fresa y bayas silvestres frescas. Consigue aquí tus semillas 😁🌻🚀: https://www.barneysfarm.es/strawberry-cheesecake-auto-569 📆 Semana 1 de crecimiento: Relleno las macetas de tierra evitando espigamientos. Aplico tierra de diatomeas para evitar futuras plagas y humus de lombriz para mejorar el sustrato y así también el sabor final de los cogollos. Solo regaré una vez con nutrientes con una EC de 550 y el resto con agua y calmag hasta 350 ppm, al haber aplicado el humus de lombriz y la tierra de diatomeas. Humedad: 70% Temperatura: 30°C

Lil Nitrogen deficiency.

10 days of darkness during the flush begins. Had great results with Wanda and her genetics. Blessed for a first grow. Cut Wanda down at the end of the week. She’s now drying. I will be giving a thorough review for my harvest diary. Excited to share what I’ve experienced and learned from this grow.

I went away for a few days and came back and the lst went well but i dont think ill do any further training. Loving how shes looking so far. Thinking about popping another seed in a week or 2.

Finally it’s harvest time!! I will be drying in a 55% humidity level!

Familia, última semana de floración de las Original de GrowBarato. Me a sorprendido bastante esta variedad sé que lleva años pero es la primera vez que la planto y tiene unos aromas increíbles, aparte son muy intensos. Bastante contento, ya empezaron amarillear y a comer los nutrientes que le quedaban. Ya llega tijeretazo en cero coma, estar están ya listas pero las dejaré 48h en oscuridad y pa alante. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 20, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 45%/55% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo, buenos humos 💨💨💨.

The girls are doing well and ready to bloom🍃🍃🍃

😎MARSHYDRO LED😎 Defoliation 3rd week flowering for better light 💡 penetration & air movement

Lots of growth through days 17 to 21. I consider day one at time of sprout. Tops height was 5.20" on day 19.. prior to applying LST. Height is no longer relevant when using LST. I'm hoping for height after I LST the plant around the bowl of the 5 gallon pot, just before bloom. Considering this is an Amnesia XXL auto strain that runs around 10-12 weeks, I am hoping for a longer vegetative period to allow for more vertical growth. Lights moved to a distance of 22" from tops on Day 19, after LST. Day 18-19 HST/LST Height 3" Day 20 a topping and pruned approximately 7 leaves Day 21 lights moved back to 18" Day 21 Height 4.25" Water PH 5.85-6.2 through Week 3

Hello. This is the end of week 10 and the beginning of week 11 of flowering. The first pictures are of the tent opening in the morning. And I put it back each night. That allows me to go into flowering when I want. One more week of veg to go, before I turn it over to flowering. And it will be around August 7th to August 15 when I'll harvest. The plants have filled out their space now. and most are growing over the edges of the table. I plan to get growing tips going up this week. with a big prune/trim about 3 days before I switch. I like to let the plants heal for 3 or 4 days before going into flowering. To get over the shock I caused by trimming them up. Then they can go into flowering easier and turn over faster if they don't have to heal first. The smell when I open the tent is like slightly metallic, a bit sour ish, like some good Afghani hashish smells. Each plant got an extra minute of nutrient solution in the morning this week with no leaking out the bottom this week. And they will get another minute in a couple of weeks. That will make 4 minutes a day of food, and I feel with my fingers, when they feel dry around the edges they get a gallon or 2 of rainwater. They look healthy. No signs of bugs or pest. When I was opening the tent a few days ago I saw a ladybug, just sitting under one of the lights, getting warm 😉 and helping. My friend Jerry, who you've seen in other diaries, gave me lots of bamboo, some 7 feet long, to make a sort of netting to hold up the buds rather than tie them to the tent pole roof. OK. Stuff to do. See ya later. Chuck.

Endlich bereit für Blüte, stelle das Licht auf 12/12 Zyklus und lasse die Lampe nun mit voller Stärke auf 500watt laufen. Habe einen Mangel festgestellt, der wahrscheinlich auf das fehlen von CalMag zurück zuführen ist. Außerdem ist es Zeit die Pflanze großzügig zu entlauben.

She's doing so well not doing much but feed her and got her a wee defold.

Oogsttijd 🌲 Werkelijk waar boven verwachting, dikke vette keiharde wiettoppen. Zamnesia strains blijven me verbazen. Dit is zijn harde toppen zoals een indica, maar met de lange lengte van een sativa, heerlijk. Ze vertoont paars, roze en oranje tinten en ruikt zoet. Ik heb de plant in zijn geheel opgehangen en zal de resultaten delen wanneer de wiettoppen droog zijn. Wordt vervolgd

Aug 24: cool and rainy lately but will warm up again in a couple days. Gorilla Cookies looks really good and is flowering nicely. Very nice strain. Added some soluble seaweed to the water mostly for the K. Don’t take flash pics of photoperiods unless you’re immediately using a 730 nm light to put them into dark mode. Using the far red light like this is known as phyto-forcing and it’s like getting an extra two hours of darkness making a 26 h day. This far north I think it moves flowering up by 3-4 weeks so obviously a huge trick. Easy and cheap if you have daily access at dusk. Aug 26: it’s been a couple of weeks but I figured it was time for a lazy compost tea. I watered with it slightly diluted and the plants look almost immediately greener and more vigorous…amazing actually. 👍👍 Aug 27: this is definitely the fastest flowering of the four. Hopefully it stays sunny for a few more weeks. Thinned out the understory a bit as there were some small branches and bud sites that were not going to do anything. Check out the birds sounds on the first video. The magpies thought I was too close to their nest in the tree or something…they’re usually not quite that annoying. Aug 29: this is a great strain, and the manifold is working its magic.

this is a very easy one to grow with an enormous bag appeal true her all cycle, a must in any garden, her trichomes production is out of these world, as are them grams on them fruits, a true must for us all to grow

🌱✨ Gelonade — Seed to Harvest & Smoke Review Grower: DogDoctor Strain: Gelonade (Feminized) Grow Type: Indoor (Tent – LED setup) Cycle Duration: ~13 weeks total (8–9 weeks flowering) Phenotypes: #1 and #2 Environment: Controlled by TrolMaster Ecosystem Lighting: Future of Grow Black Series 600 & ThinkGrow Model 1 Medium: Super Soil (Aptus Holland Amendments) Nutrients: Aptus + Plagron Final Yields: • Pheno #1: 146g dry cured (Grove Bags) • Pheno #2: 159g dry cured (Glass Jars) ⸻ 🌾 From Seed to Strength Our Gelonade journey began with delicate germination — a simple soak in plain water using The Cannakan method, ensuring the seeds awakened slowly and evenly. After 24 hours, they sprouted into life, soon meeting their first home in rich, Aptus-enhanced super soil, carefully inoculated with mycorrhizae and buffered for perfect balance. As seedlings, they thrived under the Black Series 600 LED, their leaves drinking in the full-spectrum light like morning sun on a quiet field. Through their early weeks, the mix of Regulator, Start Booster, and tender care built strong frames and healthy roots. Week after week, they evolved — into vegetative vigor, then into flowering elegance. Their structure hinted at their genetics: 60% sativa, 40% indica — tall, branching, graceful, yet dense. Pheno #2 became our unicorn, flaunting her funky fox-tailed buds and mutated, hand-like leaves — a masterpiece of nature’s playful genetics. ⸻ 🌼 The Flowering Weeks By week 5 flower, the room bloomed with energy. PPFD at 766 µmol/m²/s, temperatures near 31°C, and VPD around 2.2 — conditions that might challenge weaker genetics, but Gelonade only glowed brighter. We refined her diet: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal & Green Sensation – 1 ml/L each This powerful synergy built not just flowers — but living sculptures of resin, terpenes, and color. The TrolMaster WCS2 sensors read the heart of the soil — moisture, EC, and temperature — guiding every watering and feeding to perfect rhythm. ⸻ 🍃 The Science of Drying — Why Whole Plants Harvest came at week 12–13 total, roughly 8–9 weeks in flower. The girls stood proud, covered in trichomes, signaling it was time. We harvested whole plants, hanging them upside down in the dark to dry slowly — preserving terpenes and chlorophyll breakdown naturally. Why full-plant drying? Because leaving the plant intact slows the drying process. The inner moisture in stems and leaves redistributes evenly, preventing harsh chlorophyll notes. This method also preserves volatile terpenes — especially important for Gelonade’s citrus-forward profile. It took two full weeks before the branches “snapped,” a sign of perfect dryness — the balance between crispness and internal moisture. ⸻ ✂️ The Art of Hand Trimming Once dry, we trimmed with Zamnesia curved professional scissors, our Trim Bin, and — most importantly — our hands. Why hand trim? Because machines can never see what the eyes feel — the perfect curl of a sugar leaf, the trichome sparkle worth saving. Hand trimming keeps the resin glands intact, preserving aroma, texture, and bag appeal. It’s slower, but sacred — the final love letter between grower and flower. The trim collected beneath the bin was later pressed gently into hash bars using a hot-water bottle method — pure pressure and warmth, no solvent. The science: The heat softens trichome heads (resin glands), allowing them to fuse together under pressure — forming a natural, terpene-rich concentrate. ⸻ 🌬️ The Curing — Glass Jars vs Grove Bags After trimming, we divided our treasures: • Pheno #1 (146g) cured in Grove Bags – a modern, low-maintenance solution that self-regulates humidity (~62%), keeping buds stable and fresh without constant burping. • Pheno #2 (159g) cured in Glass Jars – the traditional, hands-on approach. We burped the jars daily during the first two weeks, allowing gas exchange and flavor maturation. Science of curing: Curing continues the slow enzymatic breakdown of residual sugars and chlorophyll, smoothing the smoke and deepening terpenes. The difference? Glass develops depth — that old-school flavor complexity — while Grove Bags preserve freshness and consistency. Both are beautiful paths to perfection. ⸻ 🌺 Genetics & Aromas — The Gelonade Signature Gelonade is a masterpiece of Lemon Tree × Gelato #41, combining sweet citrus brightness with creamy dessert undertones. The aroma: Sweet citrus candy, tangy lemon zest, and a whisper of black pepper. The flavor: Like sipping lemonade through a gelato cloud — refreshing, smooth, and joyfully bright. ⸻ 💨 Smoke Review — The Dream in a Dream Lighting the first cured bowl was like opening a memory. The smoke is silky, expanding gently in the lungs. The taste starts citrusy-sweet, then mellows into earthy vanilla-pepper. The high? A sunrise in slow motion — uplifting, creative, euphoric. Happiness washes in waves, followed by peace that lingers in the chest. Perfect daytime medicine, yet balanced enough for evening reflection. Pheno #1 brings clarity and laughter; Pheno #2 brings stillness and grace. Together, they mirror duality — the head and the heart in perfect balance. ⸻ 🌿 Closing Reflections From seed to harvest, this grow has been a story of learning, patience, and passion. Every leaf told a story, every sensor reading a verse, every trichome a spark of life. Thank you to the community, to Zamnesia, Aptus Holland, Plagron, TrolMaster, and all who share love for the craft. And thank you to the haters, too — because growth blooms brightest through resistance. This grow was more than cultivation. It was a dream in a dream.
