Esta semana fue necesario poner algunos tutores para soportar el peso de algunos cogollos. También esta semana la séptima a 12/12h empiezan a verse la formación de Foxtails el la nº2.

First the trichomes then the plumping. Still at trichome production they all smell great. Gorilla Zkittles, Gelat.og, and elderberry smell soooo damn sweet and dank. GZ has this orange spice smell. 🤤🤤🤤🤤

It's week 10 of flowering, and Lemon Cherry Gelato is slowly starting to broaden out a bit. However, she'll still need some time—about 2-3 weeks, I estimate. From now on, she'll only be given tap water with a pH level of 6.5. The leaves are slowly turning purple. 🍋🍒🍦

She grow super fast and I start nutrient on her day 6 and she loves it Today day 12 I start on her lst training and I will top her too

A planta segue bem parou de crescer na última semana e começou a engordar as flores.

Week 12 done and dusted!! Week 4 of flower!! 🌸 There's been some more movement and stretching and the canopy has now taken shape and the top bud sites are positioned, developing and ready for the post stretch period. The home straight isn't far away now!! 🌱🌲 Just top dressed them with some mycoboost then next week I'll start with the Bloom2 and I'll probably add some guano as an extra boost!! 🦇 May give them one last defoliation next week to clear some of the fan leaves!! ✂️ Catch you next week for another update!! 🍋🍇🤙

This week didn't quite go as planned on autopilot. The main bonus is when I got back the Green Crack is shooting pistils out everywhere. This plant has really fought hard and gained it self some space, she is a bit tall but I'll just bend the branches 90deg.

Welcome friends to week 14. 8/6-12. I did defoilation last week of most of the feeder leaves. The goddesses let you know what they want and dont want. When I was defoliating, if the leaf was hesitant in coming off, don’t force it, because it will bring part of the bud with it.That being said, I have 3 small buds that came off during trim. Close up pics above. I have these drying on a fruit bowl in the kitchen and will give CBG a try in about 2 weeks. 8/6 No water today. Adjusting to yesterday’s defoliation, outside time and fertilization. This is day 106 since popping the soil on April 17. Based on the last auto flowers I grew, I anticipate these will be ready to harvest at the end of 2 weeks (Aug 19-20). I don’t know how long it takes for trichomes to start turning amber but I see almost 100% milky, just no amber yet. 8/7 I’m pushing an extra day without water and not running humidifier. This is pushing VPD higher into the excess range. I read that this stress can motivate the plant to make bigger buds. Harvest time will determine if that’s so. 8/8 Ferigate 3 gallons using TPS1 23.75ml, Signal 9.5ml, EC 1.19, PPM 820, ph 7.5. I only gave them 1 ½ liters each today. 8/9 No water. Still not seeing amber trichomes. How long will it take? 8/10 light fertilize today. 3 gallons with 15 ml TPS1, 7.5 ml Signal. Each received 1 gallon. They were in the tub so all run off went down the drain and I didn't get measurements. There was a summer storm today so I utilized the time to go thru more boxes. Interesting items that I came across: 1 grandmother's notes for colorizing black white photos. She won awards for this process. 2 grandfather's attestation to the US State land department on the improvements made on the homestead acreage. State confirmed improvements. The official land rights posted above. 3 1928 cook book Women of the Presbyterian Church. Shown is a recipe for cooking 'possum. Good old southern cooking. Recipe by my great grandfather. I'll check the book for any that might be really yummy. 8/11 no water. More hair tufts forming 8/12 ferigate today. Prepared 3 gallons TPS1 23.75 ml, signal 15 ml, cal mag 15 ml, ppm 794, ph 6.59 ****** From the emergence of women in the workforce after the depression ad WWI, women in business were the secretaries and clerks. A woman’s place was in the home. My grandmother, father and mother were all high achievers in their careers, and interests. All won awards for their achievements in work activities, teaching, and arts. This type A behavior was instilled in me from the start. In everything I did I had to be my best. I worked a variety of jobs from jewelry sales to office clerical during high school and college. Attending school and working at the same time and maintaining straight A’s is typical A behavior. I started picking up industrial psychology courses and some business. When I got into accounting, my male accounting professor said I was really good and I should consider it. The economics of business was changing. Women were breaking the glass ceiling in large corporations with more women were becoming CEO's of big corporations. So, I changed my major of study in college from science to business and accounting. I entered a difficult field. Once out of college, I started in the accounting field and remained in the same career for over 35 years. I did not have the desire to travel the world so I remained in Tidewater. My career began as an accountant responsible for payroll and accounts payable at a hospital, then went into banking. From there, I entered government accounting and finance. Over the years, I was promoted from staff accountant to manager, then director of financial reporting at Tidewater Community College (TCC). Interestingly, I came across my mom’s college yearbook. She attended Teachers College of Connecticut (TCC). My mom began her teaching career in college, and I ended my career while working in higher education. What a coincidence! My need for perfection is causing stress and anxiety since I’m having difficulties. Even though I followed the TPS1 autoflower weekly recommendations, I still overfed. This caused nutrient lock out for which I flushed with no nutrients for 3 weeks. Once I resumed 1/4-1/2 strength the required solution, I started seeing new white pistils in the existing buds. Thanks for stopping by. Your likes and comments are appreciated. Have a great week, enjoy your smoke and have fun 👍.

Wanted to keep her growing until the end of the month but, mother nature had other plans. Woke up this morning and the buds where almost touching the ground. Still have 1/2 the plant left, will cut fown later today if more rain. Don’t have room to cure all at one time. Normally I cure outside, for now they’re in my bathroom and dressing room.😬Don’t know the wet weight for now since only cut 1/2 of the plant, but probably a good 4 or more kilos!😳 Finally, the sun has returned. Not hot though, but nice and sunny. Moved curing to outside for now. Last night we stayed high just from the aroma in the house. More to come when she dries.😍 Last plant totalled 2,005grams. 3 plant total 3,340 grams 😎

I love this plant. It's such a beautiful structure. Buds are fattening up really well. Seeds are also starting to be produced. Looks like the rest of the plant has become pollinated. Couldn't be happier.

Gelato - Semana 7 1 Optimización de la Maduración y Corrección del Balance ( N-K) Durante el inicio de esta fase, se identificó un ligero espigamiento o foxtailing (cola de zorro) en las inflorescencias apicales. Etiología: Este fenómeno se atribuyó a una persistencia elevada de Nitrógeno (155 ppm) durante la semana 6. El exceso de en etapas avanzadas de floración puede reactivar procesos vegetativos en el ápice de la flor, promoviendo la formación de nuevas hojas de azúcar y estructuras espigadas que comprometen la densidad. Acción Correctiva:Se recalibró la solución nutritiva reduciendo el aporte de Nitrógeno a 90 ppm. Resultado: Esta restricción nitrogenada detuvo el crecimiento apical desordenado y forzó a la planta a entrar en una senescencia controlada. Al limitar el , se redirigen los carbohidratos de la síntesis de nuevas proteínas estructurales hacia la ruta de los metabolitos secundarios, mejorando significativamente la compactación de los cálices y la deposición de resina. 2. Ajuste del Balance Cationico y Presión Osmótica Se realizó una intervención crítica en la concentración de Potasio (K) para proteger la integridad del transporte de nutrientes en la zona radicular: Reducción de : El aporte se ajustó de 220 ppm a 195 ppm. Fundamento Técnico: Niveles de Potasio superiores a 200 ppm en esta fase aumentan drásticamente la presión osmótica en la rizósfera. Esto genera un antagonismo competitivo, donde el exceso de cationes de bloquea los sitios de absorción de Calcio y Magnesio . Consecuencia: Al bajar a 195 ppm, se redujo la interferencia iónica, permitiendo que el Calcio mantenga la estabilidad de las paredes celulares en los cálices maduros y el Magnesio continúe soportando la transferencia de energía (ATP) sin provocar bloqueos radiculares por saturación de sales. 3. Suplementación Final de Vitaminas del Grupo B En concordancia con el protocolo de maduración, se aplicó la penúltima dosis de Tiamina (B1), Piridoxina (B6) y Cobalamina (B12) (100mg / 5mg / 50mcg respectivamente) diluida por cada 10 litros de agua. Mecanismo: Estos activos actúan como agentes de mitigación de estrés abiótico. Dado que la planta está operando bajo una alta demanda metabólica y una solución nutritiva de alta precisión, el complejo B facilita el metabolismo de los carbohidratos y refuerza el sistema inmunitario radicular ante la fluctuación de la presión osmótica. 4. Estado de los Tricomas y Senescencia La reducción de macronutrientes ha acelerado la maduración bioquímica visible en las flores: Tricomas: La relación actual es de un 75% lechosos y un 15% ámbar, con una disminución notable de tricomas hialinos (transparentes). Arquitectura: La flor ha dejado de estirarse, logrando un cierre de corona mucho más denso. La coloración de las hojas de azúcar muestra un inicio de degradación de clorofila (fading), señal de que la planta está movilizando sus reservas móviles hacia la floración final. 5. Parámetros de Control Climático (VPD) Se mantiene un VPD de 1.4 kPapara asegurar que, a pesar de la reducción de Potasio, el flujo transpiratorio sea suficiente para movilizar el Calcio hacia las zonas de mayor densidad floral, previniendo necrosis interna en los cogollos más compactos.

Starting to see some frost not much but the smell is dank. Can’t wait to exhale the smell and hope it get me high as hell. This stage of growing is slow. I guess because you are always looking at the clock. “Is she ready yet”

Chopped her at exactly 12 weeks old. She was covered completely in good sized and trichome laden flowers, absolutely no larf whatsoever. Fan leaves stuck out clearly and were quite easy to remove, minimal processing needed for this strain. Gives off the scent of kushy must and sweet fruit. Extremely easy grow, heavy feeder, and very easy to train out perfectly. I will grow this strain again soon.

As you can see, LST works well, Gorilla Strawberry tolerates LST very well, in almost all plants I managed to keep the branches at the same height I made a minor defoliation of large leaves. The rest I slide under the twigs every day so that they do not make a shadow. Due to a high wind that lasted 2 days and LST one of my Gorilla Strawberry broke in half and holds on about 20% of the stem. I was thinking about trying the method HST and I will remove the cracked part of the plant, but I did not have the heart to cut it off, so I decided to use the patch that I carry with me in the first aid kit if I cut myself. From two twigs and a patch I made a primitive splint. The next day I took an insulating tape with me into the forest and once again wrapped the splint for better strength. And as you can see, the plant lives and thrives :) Next, I want to show you the pest Leaf Minner, which makes tunnels in the leaves and then pupates on the underside of the leaf I tear off the leaf or crush the pest Next, I would like to show you a very useful beetle, a ladybug that eats, for example, aphids, in the photo you see a pupated ladybug larva, do not kill it !!!

En esta actualización se incluyen 2 semanas ya que por trabajo me fue imposible añadir la semana anterior. El día 15 de Agosto recibió la segunda pulverización de Bacillus Thuringiensis para prevenir el ataque de las orugas. Sigo alternando riego de agua un día con riego de Ascophillum Nodosum al día siguiente. He dejado de regar con Cannazym.

Bueno ahora si que si pronto nos despediremos de estas red hot cookies de sweet seeds ya que están a días del Machetazo. Ya se les practicó el lavado de raíces. Una variedad con unos aromas bastante afrutados y con unas tonalidades espectaculares, no hay más que verlas. Sweetseeds hizo un gran trabajo con esta cepa. . La humedad esta al 45% la temperatura está entre 21/27 grados , y como siempre el ph , ya que es de lo más importante,está en 5,8/6,0. . un saludo y buenos humos fumetillas💨💨💨.

Not a bad week. Left unattended with nutrient feed. One got slightly over watered ,so I removed water line for a day or two to let it dry down. PH perfect nutrients really make it easy to have a low maintenance grow. Going to let them be for another week while I decided if I want to top or just tie down. Will update pictures and such as the week progresses.

I'm going crazy. These babies are delicious looking. I'm ready, been buying fucked up weed for 40 yrs. What was i thinking? I think I've lost the battle with the girls. But in a damn good way. Guys?::: I'm just letting them grow. I have no idea?
