I think she's about ready to be bent over and trained.. I'll definitely do a video. Wish me luck because I've never done this before so it should be interesting to say the least. Lol

So exactly 12 weeks old today I’m checking trichomes every other day atm as there still clear!! Hopefully another week of feeding nutrients then the flush before harvest! Still happy for my first grow! The girls scout cookie auto plant has been impressive and the bcn critical has also grown steady!! Leaves are turning more yellow and bud hairs seem to be curling over more each day which is a positive! Feeding every two days, trying to starve them as much as possible! Do I reduce my light hours in the last two weeks of harvest???

Harvest day - I save my harvest post for the yield results so I have one more to follow. Beautiful grow though and really impressed with the yield and results. I typically only grow indoors, this is my first full outdoor grow with a photo actually. It definitely changed how I view growing seeing the plants react outdoors. Also I’m in newly legal NY state and we would not be here today if it wasn’t for people like Jack Herer fighting for us at the most difficult times to do it. Jack was born in Buffalo, NY so this grow was a grow to pay homage to a man that led the way. This strain has also won the 2nd most cannabis cups behind only Skunk #1 a strain well deserving of the Jack Herer name.

Extremely surprised by the growth, I put it down to the right temperature & humidity levels as-well as the Canna Rhizotonic.

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Hi everyone :-) . This week she continued to develop very well 😊. It was poured twice with 1 l each time. She got training again (topping) and will get it a few more times so that she becomes a real bush :-). Otherwise everything was cleaned and checked.

We are at day 47 of 12/12, first day of water only. I do small defo for better light penetration for lower bud. Smell on nose candi#2 is insane, pure blend of lemon with spice, cream and gaz. Complex, love it Champaya#2 is smelling very good, blend of clementine and orange without gaz. The tropic ozz clone is top tier, very close to a tropicanna cherry but with extra sweetness from peach ozz. Look like tropicana cherry but enhanced. Can wait for the harvest

✨ 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.

Here we are with another exciting new product from Zamnesia, Gush Mintz. Remember that we are growing one plant worked with the techniques indicated and another left to grow without pruning to preserve its speed; in the previous/next diary you will find the other plant of the same strain. In this diary we find a plant worked with slightly different techniques, this time for a change and to be honest because I was doing a main lining and having broken a brunch I turned it into a plant with LST applied aggressively and the plant responded well, I also made a small break but it worked as an HST, to continue stressing I put some paper tape. Comparison is the salt of the experience, so the plant in the other diary will be treated very differently, go and see it to make a comparison. We started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is made up of recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhizae Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). In the middle of the week the pre-flowering started so I decided to start the program for this phase: 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 1 ml/l of Power Buds - 4 ml/l of Alga Bloom Remember the Green Sensation from the 3rd/4th week of flowering depending on the flowering speed or how you see the calyxes composing, when the calyx is in the swelling phase it is used. We sprayed 5 ml/l of Vita Race foliar fertilizer once a week. ----------------------------------------------- https://plagron.com/en We still have the excellent RQS mycorrhizas running through the soil. https://www.zamnesia.io/en/5778-mix-micorrhiza-easy-roots.html Try this strain, it is one of the best in recent years, with a very high THC level ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11234-zamnesia-seeds-gush-mintz-automatic.html Zamnesia Short Description // Gush Mintz Auto is a relaxing hybrid strain derived from the original Gush Mintz and a high-performance ruderalis specimen. This cross has produced a plant with a genetic makeup of 70% indica and 30% sativa. Her parents have given her a host of interesting characteristics, including mint and candy flavors and a high THC content of 20%. Smoking these buds provides creative vibes, a feeling of euphoria, and a pleasant sensation from head to toe. In addition to her enticing flavors and powerful effects, Gush Mintz Auto produces large yields of compact buds in just 9-10 weeks from germination. This strain is suited to LST (Low Stress Training) and performs best when grown in the ScrOG technique (a technique that optimizes light exposure to maximize yields). Intense aromas and deeply relaxing effects As she grows, Gush Mintz Auto’s aroma intensifies, releasing sweet and minty notes. This refreshing flavor profile is best enjoyed when smoked, offering an enticing combination of minty freshness and sweetness. The effects are deeply relaxing, enveloping the body in a pleasant sense of well-being without being overly sedative. Gush Mintz Auto is perfect for those seeking creative inspiration, making writing, painting or music sessions more fluid and inspiring. The whole world of growing and much more is at Zamnesia: just take a look at the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. --------------- www.zamnesia.com
