Welcome growfessors! Harvest time for Do-si-dos! This gal is looking great after her last week in the tent. She developed a little foxtailing over the past week, but she did bulk up, pack on more frost and is sticky as molasses! July 11 dry weight of 83 grams. Smooth smoke, mellow flavors.

7/30/23 - Day 48 - OK, so last I posted, I have been waiting to see how tall she grows. She does not seem to be stopping her growth I'm going to try some super cropping. I've never done this before, but it honestly does not seem like a bad thing. Hurt the plant a little, and the response should be more THC. The reason for hurting the plant is so that you can bend the plant as you need it. She's sleeping now, but when she wakes up, ill take a look and possibly start to super crop. Currently, I am working on implementing the auto water feature of the LEAF Grow system, which is quite convenient to set up. All it requires is to hook it up to a standard hose outlet, saving you time and effort. By using Reverse Osmosis (RO) water instead of tap water, I can ensure a controlled and optimal environment for my plants. Tap water contains various additives like copper, zinc, and chlorine, which can't be measured precisely and might affect plant growth. In a successful grow operation, every aspect needs careful control, and water is of utmost importance. RO water, with its near-zero ppm, ensures that there are no unwanted additives, offering the best conditions for plant development. Although RO water is not produced under pressure, I've found a suitable solution to address this concern. To achieve the required pressure for the LEAF unit, which is rated for 30 - 80 PSI, I've researched and discovered that a sump pump would work perfectly in this setup. This pump adds the necessary 30 PSI to the water line as it is drawn from the inlet, eliminating the need to pressurize a bottle or container, thus avoiding potential hazards associated with excessive pressure. I'll be documenting my progress with pictures as I set up this system, and I can't wait to witness the auto water feature in action, saving me from the hassle of manually adding water. Super Crop: I did about half of the plant in a Super Crop today. Meaning I damaged the branches enough to bend them. The plant will work overtime to fix them, but also, the Resin and THC will be surging through the plant in a rush to be more defensive against what it more than likely a predator eating it. I did my best to make the branches pliable. I think I did a good job. I was so scared that I was going to snap them.... and I did; on a couple, they split up the side. So I grabbed my duct tape and added a bandaid. I have been worried sick about how she would handle all the destruction. After about 3 hrs, I saw that all the Super Cropped branches were already reaching back up. This is a great sign that the plant is doing well and that all the branches I was sure were to fall off are thriving. Again I think this box is magic. The topping didn't stunt any growth, trimming a 3-gallon bucket full of leaves 1st week into flower didn't stunt any growth, and Super Cropping 2 weeks into flowering seems to be thriving. I'm going to get to experiment with this LEAF box on all kinds of strains. The possibilities are endless. Just one theory I want to try, Purple. I want to grow a strain known for its purple, and I want to grow it a few times, each time growing it colder and colder to document and show how cold might affect the purple color like we have all read and heard about. These are the kinds of things that I think about and why I choose LEAF. Ill be back to update tomorrow morning. 8/1/23 - Day 50 - I updated some of the pictures. Flowering is going well. Every day the water is less, and the buds are bigger! I scoped out some of the buds already. Now we just wait. i have a water change coming up in a few days. As always ill add some more pics as we go along. If you are looking for this experience, check out https://www.getleaf.co/

Lights: Main: 8 397w, UVA 26w (So AC sending me out replacement for UVA so should have all 48w this time, running 26 until they arrive) Feed Listed above then EC/PH adjusted Controller Ports: #1 Main lights #2 Exhaust #3 Intake #4 UVA D14 temps still high, but still going strong, supposed to be a little cooler this week 🤞 D15 Setup drainage and pump sys Girls are on a roll. I want to be sure so it's been running way too hot and way too humid and I took one of the plants out yesterday to debate whether to call it this way it'll just be easier on the environment so I could get my control back. I was pruning and checking it out, to debate whether I should just get rid of it, I was training it and I snapped the main stem right down the top seam lol. So that made the decision to cull it very easy lol. The plant was completely healthy and a great plan. It was just the smallest one and the only reason I was even debating it is because it was getting too hard to keep the environment dialed in where I needed it, shit happens, she was going strong until I ripped her in half lol. They're all doing amazing. Set up the first trellis, D16 Holy shit 1 day in trellis this one girl just won't be held back, after I do some maintenance/pruning I'll snap some new pics. D17 These girls are on 🔥 LETS GO ezzjaybruh

09 October 2018 - Day 106 Flush run well, Buds have increased and thickened up nicely. Day 107 - No more burn and buds are growing. Day 108 - Conditions are good. Day 109 - Noticed heavy and healthy root growth. Last day before trim Day 110 - Trimmed and Harvested. ** Tent was required ** Day 111 - Colour and smell has become stronger Day 112 - Still drying

Las plantas están en plena floración , con un leve amarillamiento en la mayoría de las hojas , creo que es exeso de intensidad lumínica o el ultravioleta debe estar afectando , en fin , el crecimiento no se ha visto comprometido y las plantas están comenzando a emanar un olor fuerte dulce , muy dulce con toques de golosina de manzana a mi parecer, vigor increíble de la cepa desde la germinación hasta ahora.

Bueno resumiendo cookies gelato es una variedad híbrida muy fácil de cultivar pero ojo, cuidado con los últimos riegos si no queréis perder cosecha por moho. Lo demás de 10 pegada heavy sabor increíble, cogollos duros como rocas y bañados de una gran capa de polen. El ambiente del secado se mantuvo en 23 grados de media y la humedad estuvo por debajo de los 45% en todo momento. Poco más la verdad estuve encantado de poder cultivar una genética tan potente . Un saludazo que paséis un final de año increíble y por supuesto buenos humazooos💨💨💨.

I did a solution change on her a week ago. She has grow a lot since then. She is looking good now and making progress. Nothing else to report at the moment. Thank you ILGM, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

As we enter week three, the stem is hardening on the fantasmo as she likes to flop over. No signs of any weird stress other than that plant flopping over, but the Mephisto's wedding is doing its own squat little thing.

Harvest #1 at 8 weeks (too soon) Plant 1 - 84g wet, 15g dry Harvest #2 at 12 weeks Plant 2 - 111g wet, 23g dry Plant 3 - 102g wet, 18g dry

Sadly I lost 2 plants this week. Something stressed the garden out. Lost 1 BGK and 1 Critical.

I'm excited for this one, really skunky smell and lovely buds. Hey growth was right on point with a auto and having her under 24 hours if light a day really fattened up her flowers. She grew with zero stretch between nodes and stacked nothing but nice colas. I would definitely recommend this strain for anyone looking for a fast turnaround of fat resinous buds. Cheers.

I think she might go for another week I’m just loving how the purple is coming out and I haven’t seen anyone else grow this strain like mines

Still a bit early for one and late for one. Took all 4 together..

Week 4 went good to everything perfect not much to report on other than growth the genetics seems to be doing very well. As again sorry for just one video and not many pictures my pictures have been messed up on my files . But thanks for seeing the diary and remember it's 420 somewhere

Here comes the first Preflower Update

Okay growmies here we are at the end of our GELATO AUTO 🍧 by FAST BUDS. It was such a pleasure to grow, i learned so so so much this run that will help me through the rest of my adventures. The beginning was tough as i am new i over watered and did not ph the water and what i mistake. But its okay i learned. She bounced back like nothing and produced these HUGE, FROSTY, DENSE BUDS! I remember the panic i had week 2-3 and wanted to scrap all of this and start over.... thank the weed gods i didnt because look at this masterpiece. I always said she took for ever but hoped she becomes a beautiful queen. And here she is. She was SOOO HUNGRY AND THIRSTY! Over a all a pleasure and amazing grow. I will for sure grow again and again. She responded so well to LST and topping... slowed it down but it was so worth it guys lmao... GROWMIES! I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU ALL SO SO MUCH!

2025-10-15 2025-10-15 The Shaman was cut today. It's always bittersweet for me when it's time for harvest. Like every time I've grown her, I had so much fun and joy—just looking at her brought me happiness. SHAMAN is a keeper in my outdoor genetics. She is easy to grow from start to harvest, always a pleasure. Despite the fact that this year she took longer to mature, I can't blame the genetics—all my outdoor plants were 3-4 weeks later this year. It was simply the conditions. Let's talk about conditions: The soil bed is prepared in autumn the year before and refreshed in springtime, so the plant always has at least 60 cm of deep, nice, and fluffy enriched soil base filled with microorganisms, microbacteria, and mycorrhizae. The roof is the most important part. This year I added 2 SCROGS—that was great! She stayed stable during heavy wind and rain and kept on shining after the storms. I'm very pleased with the outdoor season overall, despite a very cold and wet spring and summer with only short periods of hot and sunny weather. The girls in my garden didn't care and kept growing and blooming until the last day. Thank you @DutchPassion_Official for the seeds—I still have 2 left for next year. My first Attempt with SHAMAN https://growdiaries.com/diaries/27066-shaman-dutch-passion And the second Run https://growdiaries.com/diaries/106092-grow-journal-by-mrs-larimar Breeders Infomation: Shaman is a solid, highly powerful F1 hybrid. This mostly sativa strain has the THC level of 13.7%. It consists of 75 % sativa and 25 % indica. It is perfect for the outdoor and greenhouse cultivations. The plant is resistant to the mould and the bud's rot due the open structure. It has a big intermodal distance between the buds. The flowering time is 8-9 weeks in greenhouses. The plant reaches 1-1.5 m in height. The sweet woody smoke brings a sensual high-quality sativa effect. I hope you all enjoy reading my diary. stay hydrated legalize worldwide

Once again had no issues had very good growth on all my plants, mother plant seems to use about 12/15l of water every 4 days just have to keep on top of that. Topping I did couple of weeks ago went a bit side ways as some plants seem to have 3 nodes at the top some how, Think is will be the last week in veg going to change light times next week to start flower, What would people’s views be on defoliation on the before flower should I do it now while there in veg or when I change the light cycle

Start of week six and the purples are visible
