Week 16 (Harvest) 30-1 First day of darkness. Temperature: 27.9 degrees (lights on) 18.8 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 48% (lowest) 31-1 Second day of darkness. Temperature: 24.5 degrees (lights on) 19.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 50% (lowest) 1-2 Drying day 1 The Saparot is ready to be harvested! Before chopping her down, i took a lot of pictures. I was able to remove most of the soil to see the rootball. I hang plant as a whole to have a slow dry. The exhaust fan is on setting 4. 2-2 Drying day 2 Temperature: 19.1 to 17.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 57% I changed the exhaust fan to setting 2 because setting 4 was a bit high in my opinion. 3-2 Drying day 3 Temperature: 19.9 to 18 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% I changed the exhaust fan to setting 1, as someone told me that it was enough air movement for drying. 4-2 Drying day 4 Temperature: 19.8 to 18.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% 5-2 Drying day 5 Temperature: 19.9 to 18.8 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked on the drying plants and the buds are shrinking a bit, they are getting a little bit crispy on the outside aswell, I hope they wont dry as fast, and i aim for a 12/14 day dry. Cant find the temps for 6-2 to 2-13. I do have a video when she was at the half of the dry process. 14-2 Trim day, yay! She was easy to trim, the buds are nice and dense, and there was not a too high bud/leaf ratio! She dried for 14 days. End results: Dried buds: 81 Grams. Dried Trim: 18.5 Grams. I am really surprised how good these genetics are! If you like CBD, i really suggest trying JYM Seeds out! The Saparot smells very fruity almost like a fruity coctail. The buds are super dense, and very bag appealing. After some months of curing the sweet fruity smell changed to a more sour smell, but still smells amazing! To be honest, i cured her a bit poorly, burped too less, and because the buds are so compact she holds moisture better then normal, so she tastes harsh, but thats on me. I have a pack of JYM's Sour Fruit aswell, so i will for sure try it out again! And my hope is already very high :D Thanks for following my diary, and feel free to check my others out aswell! See you at the next one!

๐ŸŒธ Week 5 Flower โ€“ Gelonade Journey What a week! The Gelonade girls are now stepping fully into their flower form, and itโ€™s breathtaking to witness. The evolution is clear: their structure is leaning beautifully toward the sativa side, with long, elegant branches reaching outward and bud formations stretching gracefully. Even though Gelonade carries a 60% sativa / 40% indica balance, the girls are clearly showcasing their sativa influence, airy yet strong, expressive, and absolutely stunning. โœจ Sativa Stretch & Structure The branching is art in motion, every node working like a painterโ€™s brushstroke on a living canvas. The main colas are elongating, and even the funky pheno is showing its own charm in how the leaves and flowers express themselves. Itโ€™s one of those weeks where you just stand back and admire. โš™๏ธ Smart Growing with Sensors The WCS2 substrate sensor from TrolMaster has been invaluable this week. It constantly reads moisture, EC, and temperature directly from the soil, helping to decide exactly when to feed and when to hold back. Instead of guessing, weโ€™re guided by real data, a powerful ally for keeping the roots in balance. ๐Ÿ’ง Nutrient Recipe Update This week we reintroduced Aptus All-In-One Liquid at 1 ml per liter, complementing the standing mix of Aptus Regulator, CalMag Boost, and Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, and Green Sensation. The reasoning is simple: as the flowers demand more, a little extra balanced nutrition ensures the canopy stays lush while the energy shifts toward bud production. ๐Ÿ’ก Inner Canopy Lighting One of the biggest joys this run is the extra canopy lighting. The Future of Grow and ThinkGrow LEDs shine from above, but the added under-canopy strips are filling gaps and ensuring photons penetrate deeply. Instead of shadowy corners, the girls are glowing top to bottom, every leaf touched by light. ๐ŸŒฟ Recap & Whatโ€™s Next From seed to now โ€” germination, veg, stretch, and into this fifth week of flower โ€” the Gelonades have shown resilience and individuality. Pheno #2, with her unicorn leaves, continues to amaze, while both are stacking into tall, elegant forms. For next week, we expect more density building, pistils shifting color, and the first whispers of resin glands sparkling under the LEDs. The journey forward promises more fragrance, more structure, and more beauty still to come. ๐Ÿ’š Closing Thought This week, the Gelonades remind us of the elegance of balance, between sativa and indica, between stretch and strength, between data and instinct. Every leaf, every branch, every bud is a note in a song that is only just beginning to play. May the branches stretch without fear, may the buds swell with light, and may each day bring us closer to the harvest of dreams. ๐Ÿ“ฒ Donโ€™t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Dry yield is sadly an estimate, as I smoked some as it cured and then sort of got my jars mixed up lol. But the top half of the plant was definitely 5.6 grams. Then I just added what I thought to be the second box of buds lol woops. 9.3g is the LOW estimate of dry weight. Either way, it'll last me ages.

So ready to harvest and dry those already, but must be patient. They are getting close but not quite ripe yet. They are taking a little longer than I expected, But at least they are continuing to swell up.

Dรญa 19. Las Tropicana han reaccionado muy bien. Aprovechรฉ para hacerle LST a una y HST a la otra. Las Polaris estaban revegetando, asรญ que esos las demorรณ. Pero ya empezaron a estirar. Ademรกs a una le tuve que cortar la rama principal y dejar 2 laterales, dado que estaba muy maltrecha. Mantuve la soluciรณn nutritiva de la semana pasada y la voy a cambiar hoy o maรฑana seguramente. Voy a tener que esperar para pasarlas a floraciรณn, ya que tengo una mudanza en unas semanas. Asรญ que la floraciรณn va a ser post mudanza.

Gave water at 6.5ph will feed on week 3. I think I've had the light to close. On day 10 pictures you can see the leaves look like there burnt ๐Ÿค” or that's what I'm guessing it is. I've raised the light to 1meter it's only at around half power at the moment and showing 21000 lux.

This is a grow I did last season that went really well. Unfortunately I don't have any veg pictures but its still a cool grow none the less. This is actually week 2 of flower. The plants were defoliated and lolipopped just before the flip and they STRETCHED. The tent was small so the scrog nets were more for support than anything. We had been going through an incredibly hot year here and it was pushing 95 degrees during the day all the way through to October. Luckily my lights run at night to save on electricity bills so I learned that high night time temps are not as detrimental. Hope you all enjoy. Adding Greenleaf Nutrients part A and B at 2.4 and 1.8 at this point.

I really enjoyed growing this single plant in a small space like a first indoor experience. The end result is not exceptional but it is fully acceptable for the setup and the period in which the plant has grown. I very soon hope to bring more serious diaries to really start having fun.

Day 42 - Kinda crazy how fast it's gotten to be day 42 (the meaning of life - *) in the grow. Haven't watered yet. Plan on doing that with the above nutrient schedule tomorrow or the day after. And I think that might be the last time I give any nutrients to the plant. Pistils are beginning to curl, and I've seen (just a few) amber tirchomes on one bud. I want to harvest on the earlier side because I don't want this harvest to have a big couch-lock effect. Prefer a more cerebral high, although some bodily relaxation is nice too. So I think I will be harvesting at the latest by April 10th (Day 56). Of course I will continue to watch how the plant develops and if no further trichomes are turning yellow/brown in a week, I'll wait longer. The trichomes on the sugar leaves have a wonderful lemon citrus smell by the way. Not what I was expecting, but that's fine ๐Ÿ˜› Day 45 - Made a video of the trichomes. They definitely look cloudy enough to me. No more nutes for sure, harvest in 10 days max I think.

Very good journey to me, she has responded very well to the lst training, providing me beautiful colas, enough for me to have nice clean organic nuggets to smoke. I would definitely would run this Ak420 by seedstockers again, the sweetest phenotype was the number #2 which you can take a look at here in my page!

We didn't have much hope for this one, hence the light documentation... her PH was a rollercoaster for a while but still managed to yield around an oz..not too shabby for a plant we nearly tossed... if we grow this strain again it will most certainly be grown outside in the garden.. I believe this could of been a very large auto given optimal conditions...happy growing everyone!
