Week 13 Day 91 Started full tilt nutes, 2 more weeks hopefully before chop. Will start full tilt on middle next feeding gave it one more bulky b Thinking I was feeding too much water (especially using 70/30coco.p) is what turned the leaves yellow to trigger flushing, feeding nutes remainder throughout until flush

January 27th: Not much to say. They're about done and smelling delicious. The dry room is set up and ready. I'm excited to harvest it, after all the nonsense this cycle went through.

Welcome to the beginning of our Lemon Cherry Gelato journey in the 12/12 seed run — an experiment made with curiosity, community, and creativity. 🌼 Germination Summary Seed Source - Zamnesia Seeds Seed Count for This Report : 3 seedlings selected for documentation (More were germinated; only the standout ones were kept for reporting.) Starting Method: All seeds began in a CannaKan germination system for observation. At around the 36-hour mark, early root development signs were visible. Seedlings were then placed into: • PRO-MIX soil (all three Lemon Cherry Gelatos) • Some under small humidity domes • All in consistent environmental conditions shared with the entire tent Emergence Within approximately 2–3 days, all three Lemon Cherry Gelatos broke the surface with healthy, uniform vigor. Their emergence timing was consistent with the other autos in the tent, forming a synchronized start line for the project. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Context (Shared Tent Conditions) These environmental notes are descriptive observations across the full project: • Relative Humidity: approx. 60–65% • Temperature Day: ~26–28°C • Temperature Night: ~20–21°C • Humidifier: running continuously • Occasional misting to help stabilize moisture • Heater: used during night cycles for warmth • Lighting: • Future of Grow — Air Grow Pro III HyperRED • Under-canopy lighting (Lumiflora UE150) to be introduced later in the project • Controllers: TrollMaster (previous partnership) • Medium: PRO-MIX soil for all three LC Gelatos • Tent: fully sanitized prior to starting the run All Lemon Cherry Gelatos were treated equally under this shared environment. ⸻ 🌈 Educational Notes for This Genetic Lemon Cherry Gelato has a reputation for producing visually expressive individuals, often showing cosmetic and structural variation early on. Part of the excitement in this run will be observing: • Differences between the three selected seedlings • How autoflowers behave in a 12/12 observational experiment • Expression, posture, and overall personality of the plants as they develop No expectations, no predictions — just curiosity and documentation. ⸻ 🙏 Acknowledgments A huge thank you to: • Future of Grow — lighting technology used in this run • Plagron — supportive nutrient and substrate partners • Zamnesia Seeds — genetics used in this project • Lumiflora — under-canopy lighting for later testing • TrollMaster — environmental gear from past collaboration • GrowDiaries platform — for giving us a place to document the project And of course… • OG followers • New followers • Lovers, skeptics, supporters, and the whole community This is a creative space, and everyone is welcome to follow the journey. ⸻ 🧡 Closing Note for the Report This is the very first entry for Lemon Cherry Gelato in the 12/12 seed run. Three healthy seedlings have taken the stage, and the project officially begins. From here forward, we’re simply documenting curiosity, expression, and the natural individuality of each plant inside the shared environment. More updates coming — with photos, weekly logs, and more educational insights. This is just the beginning.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. 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.

Day 14-21 (May 14th - May 21st) (Day 14) Transplant went well. I’ll wait a few days for recovery then start to harden them off. They’ve been acclimated to the sun pretty well so far from the window but the cold night temps will be stressful. (Day 16) It’s going to be nice out tonight so I’m going to leave the girls outside. (Day 19) I’ve been leaving the plants out all day for the last 3 days and they’re looking great. Better than my tomatoes anyway. Stems look like they’re thickening up too. I’m going to start the autoflowers for this season. I’m soaking them in shot glasses this time. I’m sick of direct sowing and losing plants. I find the soak + paper towel method is by far the most efficient and quick too. I don’t think I’ve ever had a seed not germinate using that method. Direct sowing seems to kill about 1 in 8 of my seedlings. So I’m going to wait until the tap root is about an inch long and will bury them flat, a half inch deep directly into my raised beds/containers. I will keep them moist by hand once or twice a day until they’re looking established. (Day 20) Just had a big rain storm and I let them take it on the chin until it got worse. All seem fine and better for it. (Day 21) All auto flower seeds are just barely poking out. Tomorrow or the next day I’m going to sow all of the grapefruits and g33’s directly into the raised bed. I’m worried that the soil mix in the beds is too strong for such a young plant and I don’t want to risk killing all of them at once. Even promix alone can be hot for seedlings. Pests and cold weather are another two things to worry about outside too. The beds were amended with quarter strength feedings of 4-4-4 Gaia Green all purpose, 3-2-4 insect frass, 1-0-3 kelp meal, 3-0-3 alfalfa meal, glacial rock dust, rock dust blend and oyster shell flour. I mix the amendments into the compost and then mix the compost with the promix directly in the raised bed by hand. I’m just going to dig out a hole in the bed and fill it with pure promix so it doesn’t get any early nute burn. The dr seedsman and exodus cheese are being directly sowed into 3 gallon fabric pots with a pure promix divot in the middle. A friend of mine just gifted me some Thugpug genetics ‘Meatbreath’ bagseed from an amazing cut. This is definitely worth growing this summer so I’m gonna pop them and get them into solo cups ASAP.

The buds are getting fat and there are plenty of bud sites and they are nice and frosty now the 2 that were lagging behind certainly aren't that far behind. I have bamboo canes ready to go in soon as the side branches are getting heavy and i don't want them to get snapped or anything now I come this far 40 days on 12/12 today Thanks for taking the time to read my update 🙏💚

Hello 👋🏻 Readers, The triplets are coming along very nicely😀 I've been keeping the RH roughly around 34% in day time and 45-48% at night. Last Sunday night(march 26th) upon one of my visit into the grow room to check the RH % i was received by and strong pungent berry/skunk mix odour... It almost brought tears to my eyes😁 So i have been using the intake fan since and also it helps keeping the Humidity down to the proper flowering appropriate range, also i still keeping the room's window cracked open during daytime with some fresh cold Canadian CO2(air) coming in and that way the temperature doesn't rises to high in the grow tent. To help allege the numerous trips into the grow room to verify the Humidity and Temperature I ordered online a WiFi humidity/temperature control sensor system, which at first is for mainly being able to verify to humidity and temperature levels with the app on my phone😅 order is out for delivery as i am writing this weekly update😁 News from the clones, they're out of the grow tent as of Friday, potted them in coco and perlite for now and trying to get them to back at VEG as them tiny buggers flipped and have tiny pistils on and top leaf turned black, since I don't have a back up tent nor a grow light i am switching them from the kitchen in the morning and dining room on afternoon....😂😅 Hopefully they'll restart VEG🤞🏻 That all said ... thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy the pictures and the video. Feel free to leave a comment and hit the like button and wish you all a great week and keep on growing!! 👊🏻😃

Another great week of growth. Started training down the main. Probably let her grow natural this coming week to see what I'm working with before doing more. Same regime but Watered twice this week. ****I will post this with every update. This was planted with 40 grams of real growers Grow Dots in 4 gallons of RG coco and 1 gallon of BAS 3.0 for an all in one amendment. ****

6/12 Thunderstorms turned to sun Plants are growing substantially. The ones that were damaged from the sun have pulled out of it. I checked the fim I did on a gmo that later burned and it has five tops! I took a couple videos bur I'll have to wait until tomorrow to upload them. Despite the weather severity and inconsistencies I'm in a really good spot. I'll upload the two videos tomorrow when I'm in a better area. Wifi is far to slow. 6/13 Rained yesterday before turning to hot sun. Supposed to be in the 90s today. Due to the rain and storms we've been having I hacebt had to water. Soil is still moist. Plants seem to be growing at a great pace. With all this rain they've gotten a hearty dose of the nutes in my soul mix and then when the sun comes out and they bask for a few hours they look considerable bigger. Another storm coming up but other than that weather is good. Plants are happy and doing well. 6/14 Plants are loving this hot weather. Rainy then it will clear up and be sunny. All plants have recovered from the shock of the weather and are growing like crazy. Ice started some lsting. I haven't even had to water. 6/15 Medium is still damp. I don't think we'll get much rain the next few days but we've gotten a lot lately. I'll continue playing it by ear. The water lasts much longer with the smaller plants in lather containers. Later in the summer I could be watering daily. If there is no rain I'll allow the bags to dry out and I'll water them. I may start them on a small nutrient schedule like the fox farm organic one you use for the entirety. I've hesitated though because my soil is chock full of nutrients and they show no sighs of deficiencies. I'll keep an eye on it. They look great though. 9/16 Watered after church. 3 1/2 gallons so approximately a half gallon each. Iys been really hot and i dont see rain in the forecast. Also broke the gmo that I fimmed right at a topping point. It wasnt wilted, and I ran and grabbed duct tape and fixed it. I've had good luck in the past this way. Hopfully I will this time as well. Still sucks though 9/17 The plant that split at the V that I taped up seems to be doing just fine. Looks just like the other top next to it. Thank God. Things seem to be going well. I'm wondering if I should start giving nutrients but I don't see any deficiencies and I know this soil mix lasts pretty much through veg without showing signs of deficiencies. I think it might be a case of "if it's not broke don't fix it." I'll look back on diaries and I'll do some research. 9/18 It's overcast but it's been in the upper 80's. I checked the plants around 11 and they looked good. They'll need water but I'm holding off until the morning. The plant I broke at the crook shows no signs of wilting or any negative effects. I assume it will come back stronger. I was thinking about watering tonight but at 12 there was still a little moisture. They will be fine until morning. Plants seem bigger every day.

Week 5 of flower for Lemon Orange by Greenhouseseedco, 1 of the phenos is a super super early developer, when compared to the other 2 its night and day difference for sure. The other 2 phenos are also struggling with the feeding abit again... they just seem to be such heavy feeders... I'm not sure if ive got a Nitrogen problem or magnesium? If someone wants to throw out their thoughts that would be great.

Had to cut. Open house through my apartment for 4 hours/day every day basically until it sells. I'm keeping them hanging in the window until the tours come through, then they go in a paper bag in a bin under my bed and I burn incense. It went ok today. I just used a microscope and they're both pretty early. This one has mostly cloudy trichomes with some clear and very few amber. The White Widow has a lot of white hairs that aren't even through growing, and the trichomes aren't really there as much either. Certainly not glowing white with resin. It's a shame I had to cut early but I think it will still be some good smoke as long as I can keep if from going mouldy.

First week of pre flower. Getting nervous about this transition stage, first plant ever, any advice on how to not screw it all up?!? Also, someone give me some feedback! I think she looks in decent health but I would love some experienced opinions.
