The whole grow was full of ups and downs I neglected her basic needs from the get go but she did recover and push along with me.. the growing conditions were not prime and fir that she did me proud .. The buds are tight and have a very nice smell to them .. If I had grown this lady in a bigger pit with warmer temps she would have been amazing ... I'm excited to try her again sometime in the spring hopefully .. the buds I tried a little but of were not bad tasted smooth and cash was white when burned ..

Hi buddies im back to the diary Everything is going well, the girls drink a lot 3 to 5 liters of feed per day, the Ph and EC remain stable. I see new roots and buds continue to bloom💣 so I think they are fine and healthy. Sensi Seeds indicates Skunk#1 with 8 weeks flowering now i am at the beginning of week 7 bloom but I still don't see milky or amber trichomes and not even so many brown pistils, so i will repeat the week 5 feed as AN advice... maybe from the next one I'll start with overdrive .. who knows? 😁 I made some macro videos of the trichomes, in the next few days I will update the diary with photos. Thanks for the answers and advices to the grow questions, I know you don't do it for the free seeds, its only love 💚😜 love you too buddies as usual thanks for stopping by and good growth everyone !! Update: I need a tripod to take better macro shoots. Sorry for low quality pics

Everyone is healthy. I have bought a humidifier to push the humidity to the max (95%) for 10 hours and 3 days per week. I want to alter the humidity to let some light go through, otherwise.it's too steamy and I think that the plants can't catch the light nor CO2. Don't hesitate to share your thoughts on this in the comment section. During Week 1: The seed grew very rapidly. by up to 5 - 6 cm. 2 leafs started growing. During Week 2: each had 4 leafs and one durga Mata has already started to grow its second floor.

🍋🍒 Week 1 — Lemon Cherry Gelato | 12/12 From Seed | First Observations Introduction & Gratitude A huge thank you to everyone supporting this project: genetics providers, Plagron for the nutrient line, Future of Grow for the lighting and control system, Cannakan for the clean start, and the GrowDiaries community of supporters, critics, and followers. Your presence makes this more than a grow — it becomes a shared experience and a learning journey. ⸻ Genetics Overview — Lemon Cherry Gelato This cultivar is known for citrus and sweet cherry terpene potential, balanced hybrid traits, and beautiful early morphology. Already in Week 1 she displays her own character. ⸻ Early Development — Long, Elegant First Leaves Among all seedlings in the 8×8, Lemon Cherry Gelato stands out immediately. Her first true leaves are long, narrow, elegant, and beautifully symmetrical. Under macro photography, the serrations and venation look almost painted. Despite being under 12/12 from seed, she expresses confidence and early aesthetic structure. ⸻ Growing Medium — Pro-Mix Mycorrhizal 14.5 L Bags Benefits of the mycorrhizal medium: • Faster and healthier root colonization • Improved nutrient uptake, especially phosphorus • Better water distribution and drought tolerance • Enhanced metabolic stability during 12/12-from-seed • Stronger early vigor and more efficient compact growth Grow bags also encourage air pruning and strong fibrous root development, which is ideal for short-cycle runs like 12/12. Lemon Cherry Gelato appears to respond extremely well to this combination — the long early leaves are a good sign of strong underground development. ⸻ Feeding — Plagron Nutrient Strategy (Week 1) All plants in the space share the same feeding mix: In water: • Terra Grow: 25 ml / 10 L • Power Roots: 1 ml / L • Pure Zym: 1 ml / L • Sugar Royal: 1 ml / L Foliar: • Vita Race: 2.5 ml / L Why it works well: Power Roots + mycorrhizae creates a synergistic boost for early root expansion. Pure Zym keeps the medium active and helps nutrient uptake. Sugar Royal increases stress resistance under 12/12. Vita Race enhances early growth and leaf strength. Terra Grow provides the nitrogen support this fast-cycle method demands. ⸻ Environmental Conditions (Week 1) • EC: ~1.0 • pH: ~6.0 • Water Temperature: 21–22°C • Room Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: 65–70% • CO₂: ~666 ppm • PPFD: 500 from the start These numbers are stable, healthy, and ideal for early 12/12 development. ⸻ Lighting — 500 PPFD Under Hyper Red Spectrum Using the Future of Grow Air Grow Pro III 2.95 Hyper Red LED at 500 PPFD from day one. The Hyper Red spectrum and consistent PPFD help maintain tight internodes and support strong early leaf development. This strain seems particularly responsive to light, expressing refined leaf shape and good posture. ⸻ What to Expect Next Weeks 2–3: • Slow but steady vertical growth • Root system expands aggressively with help from mycorrhizae • Leaf width and color deepen • Early hormonal adaptation to 12/12 Weeks 4–5: • First mini-stretch • Clear bud site formation • Early fragrance hints on stem rubs (citrus/cherry tones) This strain tends to become visually impressive early and aromatic early, even under a compact flowering schedule. ⸻ Metrics Being Tracked • PPFD, dimmer %, and light height • Temperature, humidity, and VPD • EC, pH, and water temperature • Morphology (noting the long early leaf structure) • Root behavior in Pro-Mix bags • Mycorrhizal response • Any early terpene hints ⸻ Final Thoughts Week 1 shows Lemon Cherry Gelato as an artistic and expressive cultivar. The long, elegant leaves and her strong early structure reflect excellent interaction between the genetics, Pro-Mix mycorrhizal medium, and the lighting environment. She may be small now due to the 12/12 schedule, but the foundation suggests a beautiful flowering stage ahead. Thank you to everyone following this multi-strain, multi-medium 12/12 project. This folder is only beginning — and Lemon Cherry Gelato is already showing her unique soul.

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 A6000 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) 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.

Light was at 16" from days 1-7, which was way too close! The light was moved up to 32" and normal growth begun! The light is an SF4000 that's dimmed to 333watts while being cooled. day 21-Defoliation begins! removed 1 fan leaf, and one node(on oposite side of 1st node) already! Day 22, two more LST wires added, to expose the lowest node to equal light with the rest!

----------------------------------------- ~BARNEYS FARM DOS SI DOS 33™️~ ----------------------------------------- This strain from 'Barneys Farm’s Cali Collection gets another jolt of super power with this explosive collection of terpenes fused together from some of the world’s most astounding US cannabis phenotypes. Dos Si Dos was developed from OG Kush Breath, a knockout Girl Scout Cookies pheno crossed with Face Off OG, then crossed again with their legendary Cookies Kush (OG Kush pheno x GSC) AND THAT’S ONLY HALF OF THE STORY. Add in a subtle blend of Gelato #33 to the pot with its star struck Sunset Sherbet x Thin Mint GSC heritage and boom! A new champion was born: a sativa burst of euphoric energy is followed by tranquility with sedative properties capable of happily tranquilizing an elephant, if you’re overzealous or uninitiated!

Today I watered her with 1.5g de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+ added, then ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉. I turned her pot and plucked a couple of yellow shade leaves...the basic daily maintenance. 9/22- I didn't water her yesterday as she looked great and was 'praying' hard. Today she was given 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ which I gave her through her drip pan (bottom chuggin) and I also gave her pot a turn. She continues to pile on the trichomes and is developing exquisite reddish purple hairs in her flowers that look absolutely wicked! She is definitely one of the most photogenic cultivar's I've grown and is looking lovelier by the day! 😍 9/24- We're getting close to wrapping up Week Six of flower in a couple of days, which will put her around two or three more weeks from finishing, with the most exciting weeks yet to come! I didn't water yesterday and today I went ahead and Top Dressed her with 2 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Gold Premium 4-4-4, 1/2 cup Down To Earth Bio-Fish, 1/3 cup Down To Earth High Phosphorus Bat Guano and 2 cups of Worm Castings. I watered in the Top Dress with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ and let her enjoy her meal! 😜 9/26- After her heavy watering on the 24th I didn't water yesterday and when I checked her today at 'lights on' and she still had some weight to her pot and her leaves were praying hard so I held off on watering today and will hit her tomorrow with her usual 1.5g watering. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

I’m surprised they weren’t affected by the power outages since I kept them in 48 hrs of darkness before returning to the regular light cycle. Had a small thrips disturbance as these were clones and I believe that was the original source *THEY JUST KEEP COMING BACK GRRR* Next go around seedlings only, low baked soil and proper sanitization of my tent. But as it stands I’m quite curious as to how much these buds will pack on since the light I have is “rated @1000w” but the power draw is considerably lower than that. Looking very good so I’m excited either way!!! Until next week growers

Flowering nice. Madarin Cookies are two in back and one in center Silver Kush are two up front. I ran out of room for scrogging branches in back, letting them just strech. Unfortunately that has me keeping the light higher than Id like. Since S.K. are shorter, the one at right side is 30" from light, while stretched branches in back are 12" from light. Averaging 18" overall from lights.... Hope i dont get light bleaching! UPDATE: Added 2nd screen on Day2 to keep stretchy branches lower Cookies are flowering nice, one of the silver kush is just starting to flower while the other hasn't started yet.... hmmm 2-3 gallons water/nutes per 5 plants, alternating with plain water (just calmag, malassis, Ph. 6.4) every other day. Ph.6.4
