Seguimos utilizando los mismos productos que la semana pasada, solo que esta vez aumentando el EC a 1,2. Hoy 26 de febrero lavamos las raíces. Yo creo que tal vez estaban con un bloqueo de nutrientes, no se ve como si estuvieran sobre fertilzidas porque creo que las hojas estarían más de un color verde oscuro y duras, como cuando parecen casi de plásticos. Ahora las hojas están como caídas, con esas puntas amarillas, lo cual me preocupa. Espero que con el lavado de raíces vaya mejor. No hemos podido controlar bien la temperatura y ha llegado a 26 durante algunas horas, podría la temperatura causar este efecto en las plantas? Gracias por leer y cualquier concejo es bienvenido 💚

I came to the end of a period that lasted about 4 months. I got really bored on last weeks. It took 128 days , Finally, I kept it in the dark for 3 days. I really like this genetics, easy to grow and durable .It is also very successful in terms of smell and aroma. it would be much better if my pot size was a little bigger , lower buds could fat more but still pretty nice buds . Let's see how the numbers will be

FBT2309 is flowering well. She has a sweet flowery aroma at the moment. She is growing under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2, in the Gen1:11 nutrition. She is coming to the end part of bulking. I figure she has about 2 weeks left roughly. She has a nice frost, and is looking great. The organo-mineral nutrition is a bit tougher to grow in. The flavor has been amazing from other grows. So it's worth the extra effort. Thank you Medic Grow, Gen1:11, and Fast Buds for the tester. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

Week 2 going strooong 💪🏼 Started some LST on it, watering with water and root booster 2-2 💧 You can see how the damaged two leaves are developing, but looks like it didn’t affect the growing. Hoping for good results 💚 Day 13, watering her once in two days (250ml) 2 times with plain water and 2 times with molasses water+root/growth booster and there is dry organic fertiliser in the soil (NPK 8-5-1) 🌱 growing good, took her further away from light (now 50cm) hoping for some stretch 😉 Day 14, finally got the bio-bizz nutrients, starting to add those, transplanted to bigger textile pot, gave her water + bio grow today 🌱

Week 3 is starting off busy. Day 14 I finally got some Bone Meal. So, I added 2 more inches on topsoil. 1st I added 1/4 cup of Bat Guano ea., 1/3 cup Bone Meal ea., 2tbsp of Potassium Nitrate and Calcium Nitrate ea. Lightly mixed into top 1" of coco. Then I added 1-1/2" of Canna coco mix (perlite10%, worm casting25%) over top of soil. Then, I topped it of with cedar chips spread over both surfaces. Day 15, 12noon I watered both girls with 1/2Lt of 6.4PH water only. 8pm I decided to LST a couple of umbrella leaves each. Hope it helps with light penetration. There's a bunch of new growth under those two leaves. How does it look so far.... Day 18: Lot of changes... Switched my lights around. The TS-1000 made heat where the Pro2 Epistar 400W didn't. Was just a hunch but as soon as I changed the temp of the room went down 8degrees. The TS-100 was directly under the exhaust fan. Cool... Took the fan out and modified the base to give some more floor room, then added a humidifier. Was going to install a DIY Co2 generator but my silicone must he too old and didn't dry. I'll clean off, fix and install tomorrow. Ladies look great, I removed the LST wires from the two umbrella leaves. 2 days were enough to get the under foliage to grow past them. Watered 1Lt "water only" PH 6.2 each plant. Added some Epson Salt to foliar spray and cleaned off the leaves on each plant.

This week marked the final stretch of the grow the Epsilon F1 is now fully mature and absolutely covered in thick, frosty trichomes. The main colas have gained impressive density, with most pistils turning a rich orange while the trichome heads are mostly milky with a few amber ones starting to appear. The fade is beautiful, with yellow and purple tones spreading through the fan leaves as the plant naturally finishes its life cycle and directs all remaining energy into the buds. The aroma has become more intense and complex sweet, fruity, and slightly earthy. Overall, she looks perfectly healthy and ready for harvest very soon. A light flush is underway, and I’ll be checking the trichomes daily to harvest at the ideal point depending on the desired effect, either a bit earlier for a more uplifting high or a few days later for a deeper, more relaxing one.

🌸 Week 7 Flower – The Calm Before the Harvest And here we are — week seven of flower, and what a journey it has been. From the very first drops of water on tiny seeds to these full, mature blossoms now bowing under their own weight — the Gelonade girls have written their own story in green and gold. Both phenos, #1 and #2, are stunning. Pheno #2, the unicorn with her foxtailing beauty, continues to fascinate — those whimsical towers of calyxes spiraling like dreams reaching for the light. Pheno #1, elegant and balanced, stands beside her sister with a classic structure, both radiating health and character. Together they show us two faces of the same soul — different yet equally divine. 💧 Now It’s Just Water This week, the feeding bottles rest. No more nutrients, no boosters, no extras — just pure water. This is the flush, the gentle cleansing before harvest. By giving only water, we let the plants draw on their reserves, enhancing smoothness, flavor, and the purity of the final smoke. It’s a closing ritual — a moment of reflection and respect for everything these plants have given. 🌱 Quick Recap – From Seed to This Moment • Germination began with The Cannakan method — simple, precise, full of hope. • Vegetative growth brought vigor, beautiful branching, and the discovery of the now-legendary funky leaf mutation. • Transplant into the 11L Amnesia fabric pots gave them the space to breathe and thrive. • Flowering came like a symphony — weeks of stretch, light, and color; a perfect balance of Aptus and Plagron nutrition; canopy lights dancing from above and below. • Foxtailing appeared on Pheno #2, transforming her into a work of art, a living sculpture of what happens when genetics, environment, and light decide to play together. Now, the flowers are glistening — pistils curling, trichomes milky, the scent rich and intoxicating. They are close… very close. Maybe not quite harvest yet, but whispering that they’re ready to show us their final act. 🌿 What to Expect Next In the coming days, we’ll watch for trichomes turning amber, for the pistils darkening, and for that subtle shift in the aroma that says “it’s time.” Expect colors to deepen, aromas to intensify, and the garden to take on that unmistakable aura of readiness. What not to expect? Rush. The girls have given us everything — now we simply wait, watch, and let them finish in peace. 💚 Gratitude To the community, the growers, the dreamers, the quiet watchers — thank you. To the sponsors and creators who make the gear that lets us grow — thank you. To the lovers and the haters — thank you too; you both push us to evolve. And to the Gelonades — thank you for being the living proof that care, patience, and love can create art from soil and light. 🌸 Closing Thought This week feels like the pause between heartbeats — the silence before the song’s last note. Everything we’ve done led us here, and everything that comes next will bloom from this moment. “May the waters run pure, may the buds rest easy, and may we harvest not just flowers — but gratitude for every step that brought us here.” 📝 PS: Pre-Harvest Notes — Knowing When It’s Time The last stretch before harvest is all about observation and patience. Every grower wants to pick the perfect moment, but that moment is a whisper, not a shout. Here’s how to listen for it: 🌼 Trichomes Your best guide. Under magnification, they tell the story. When most are cloudy with a few amber heads starting to appear, the flowers are at their peak — full potency and rich aroma. Clear trichomes mean “not yet,” while too many ambers mean the effect will lean heavier and more sedative. 🧡 Pistils Watch the hairs. Early in flower they stand white and proud, but as harvest nears they curl in and darken to orange or brown. When roughly 70–90% have changed color, the plant is signalling readiness. 🍃 Leaf Fade As you feed only water, the large fan leaves begin to pale, pulling the last stored nutrients into the buds. This is a natural and healthy fade, not a deficiency — it means the plant is completing her life cycle. 💨 Aroma Shift In the final days, the scent deepens — less sweet, more complex. Sometimes you’ll notice earthy, gassy, or fruity tones becoming more defined. That change means the terpenes are reaching full maturity. 🌙 Energy Even the way the plant feels changes — the branches seem to relax, the weight of the flowers makes them bow slightly, as if in quiet surrender to the harvest. When all these signs align — trichomes milky with a touch of amber, pistils mostly curled and dark, the fade in motion, and the room filled with a full, mature scent — then it’s time. Until then, let her dream a little longer. The last few days often bring the biggest magic. ✨ 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Now it's all over and I can sit back look at her, cry a tear of joy, and enjoy that my hard work has paid off. Although it is not over just yet. I still need to dry out the bud and get them in jars to cure.I will say one thing about my opinion on tastes and smell. Its just that, an opinion. I chose creamy just because I felt it describes the taste, although I cant say it tastes like a cream-sickle. It definitely has some citrus to the taste though, that I am sure of. The high I feel really brings me up. Took me too long to wake up this morning but this helped out. I'm feeling ready for the day, and all around quite good inside the chest and head.All in all it tastes and feels great. It will be a great WAKE and bake sativa, or a great party toke. I am going to give some away to some close friends and get their opinions on it as well. I do recommend this plant to other people. Try it out for yourselves. It was an easy plant to grow and train. My buds did not come out looking like a cannabis cup winner but they probably could in the right growers hands.

Start of the week. Flushed both plants using Fox Farm Bush Doctor Sledgehammer. Flipped to 12/12 & turned on the 5 Watt bloom enhancers today. God's Vagina is a little smaller than the clone but that's to be expected seeing as the clone had such a large head start. They're really going to start stretching now! Each week they get hungrier and hungrier! Will be updating daily this week

Only had chance to do photos on day 41 guys, apologies for that. This week I think there was a Gamma Radiation leak nearby.. She grew 36cm!!!!!!!!!! 😂 thats OVER 5cm / 2" per day 😍 😎. I think I got another monster on my hands 😂 😍 I'm gonna estimate after harvest 5oz dry 😋 I don't have much more headroom in the tent. I wish she had FIMed properly. This is an area I need to improve... 😑 Lots of flower sites forming! She is quite bushy. For nutrients I'm using 15g of 20-20-20 mixed with 10L of water. Also added 4ml/L of both Cannazym and Terpinator. This brings it to around 1600ppm including ~300ppm for my clean water. I did an arty vertical shot this week on the timelapse. 😁 Timelapse sequence: Blue Dream Auto Jack *** Pineapple Express *** CBD Compassion Lime Blue Dream *** Pineapple Express - Top Shot! *** Auto Jack

Both plants are currently being flushed, B2 will be ready for harvest the next few days and B1 will still flush for another week. The fade in B2 is incredible, truly my best plant I've grown so far.. best structure, best density, best everything. Looking forward to this harvest for sure. Probably will not post another update until my harvest results in a couple of weeks.
