🌿Week 4: Defoliation & SCROG Setup
Week 4 was all about structure and airflow.
The canopy was getting bushy fast, with a ton of inner growth, so we went in for a solid defoliation session across the board. Lower fans, overlapping leaves, and shaded internodes were cleaned up to let light penetrate deeper into the canopy and reduce potential humidity traps.
Right after that, we finally dropped the SCROG net, stretched out gently across the canopy to guide the branches horizontally and prep for flower stacking. Some of these phenos are already reaching for the sky, so the timing felt just right.
Captured a full-time-lapse clip of the defoliation + netting process. It’s super satisfying watching the chaos turn into clean lines. Nature meets intention.
Feed Bloom since 20/6
22/6 Defoliation
🌱 Plant Response:
After defol, they bounced back fast. Tops are perky, leaves are praying, and stretch is continuing in a controlled way. The structure’s more open now — better airflow, better light distribution, better everything.

Week 4 was a very active training week for Apple Gelato. The plant received two topping sessions combined with FIMing to significantly increase the number of main growth tips. In addition, Low Stress Training (LST) was applied to spread the branches horizontally and create an even, open canopy.
Despite the intensive training, the plant handled everything extremely well. Recovery was fast, with no visible stress, drooping, or slowed growth. New shoots started developing quickly at all topped and FIMed nodes, showing strong vigor and good genetic stability.
LST helped expose lower sites to direct light, improving airflow and setting the foundation for a symmetrical structure. Leaf color remains healthy green, internodal spacing is tight, and overall growth is compact and controlled.
This combination of 2× topping + FIMing + LST has clearly prepared the plant for a bushy structure with multiple strong colas going into the next vegetative weeks.

Grape Ape Cake !
Lineage;
Hotcakes
(Katsu Bubba Kush X Burnt Toast (from Raw Genetics)
X
Grape Ape
An Exciting New Collab from Katsu Bluebird !
Week 11, & the End of 4 weeks of flowering (30 Days of 12/12)
Welcome back to our regular scheduled programming....
Like I mentioned we are officially 30 days into our 12/12 lighting cycle.
Now taking into consideration that this is one of the first runs of this particular strain the flower period is partially undetermined, I will be guessing based on Lineage of the parents, & following her closely towards the end to ensure my desired trichome ripeness.
Katsu's HotCake's run's Approximately 8-9 Weeks
&
The Grape Ape run's slightly quicker at 7-8 Weeks
You can certainly tell the difference between all 5 plants, I'm very glad I took cuts of everything ! as plants 2 & 3 are certainly the keepers of the bunch..
plant 2 showing some very cool fall colours already (emerson effect hitting strong asf) She is already starting to purple up & smells Very Sweet. My guess is this pheno leans more to the Grape Ape side.
As far as plant 3 is concerned I can smell heavy Kush aromas emulating off her already, & based on her flowering structure I believe this pheno leans more Katsu Bubba. but we'll have to wait and see.
A Minor amount of leaf plucking this week should be noted.. It will probably be the last time I mess with them, its time to start swelling up.
It is my opinion that most of the stretch has been completed & i'm now looking at the final colas minus the couple weeks of filling out of course.
As this is the end of four weeks of flower(12/12) Their food will be increased during the next feeding, thus far i've been impressed with the ease of this strain.. I wasn't sure what to expect to be honest but I will say this I was weary of over-feeding but all of them seem to enjoy heavy feedings.
Thanks for Reading 🙌
If you have a question or a comment leave it down below otherwise,
I Hope You Check in Next Week,
Stay Safe out there & Happy Gardening

The bud are dense and covered in trichomes. Very tasteful in vape (Utilian 722). It taste like creamy berry. The buzz start with a head rush to finish with a body buzz. Sometimes the head rush is a bit to much. I don't know if it's because of this pheno or the genetic or due to a bad flush. Overall I'm very satisfied with my first harvest and I will keep the Glue Gelato to smoke it.

Super solid canopy between these 2 ladies. Nice sea of colas brewing up. No vertical growth really to speak of. Just some flower mass. Very happy and healthy and looking very vibrant. Looking sexy in the garden lol.
They got treated with Dr zhymes as a preventative. That will basically wrap up their treatments ...possibly once more with lost coast.
Upped the pk intake as they are blooming strong now. Gotta keep those engines well fuelled. Response was stellar. Happy happy happy.
Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

Such a top quality strain 🔝 very very terpy, stinks like OG kush, rock hard dense nuggets, they're literally rocks. Very frosty nuggets, full covered in resin flowers. Those orange hairs just make her irresistibly delicious 😋 I just can't wait to smoke such a high grade. This is gonna be a good year. Hope to always have this lady in my garden every year 🤤👨🌾💎🍪

Привет 🖖
С новым годом 🎅
2022 самый ужасный год в моей жизни! Он был сложным во всем, экономический кризис, война.......
Я добавил видео, это 2 ракеты 31 декабря упали рядом с моим домом, русские нацисты обстреляли жилой район, умерла девушка 22 года ей было..... 4 человека получили ранения..... Так страшно ещё не было! Мы встречали новый год под обстрелы ракет и звук сирен тревоги в полной темноте...... Россия государство террорист убийца 😣
Это мой блог и я хочу здесь делиться своими чувствами и эмоциями, что бы больше людей знали что происходит.
А теперь дневник.
На этой неделе растения стабильно получали 20 часов света, это очень помогло им стать больше и сильнее.
Я продолжаю тренировки LST.
На этой неделе была обрезка веерных листьев, я часто практикую дефолиацию автоцветов. Надеюсь проблем со светом не будет, растения уже показали "усы" свой пол, значит стадия предцвета будет примерно через неделю, хочу что бы они стали ещё больше и набрали "мяса" массу.
Ещё раз поздравляю всех с новым годом. Мира вам и вашим семьям, и мирного неба, что бы в ваш дом не прилетали ракеты.

Would definitely grow this strain again with some lst work and a large pot from the start I would hope to double the yeild atleast.
I'm a fan of the chunky buds atm and this plant has some nice chunky buds!
The smell is very earthy and a little bit of sweet. Smooth taste and a pretty heavy high! Buds are super sticky.
I have heard alot about fastbuds and I will continue to purchase there seeds!
If it wasn't for mars hydro and there affordable products I wouldn't be here!

Placed seed in water for 18 hours and then planted into a small pot , 24 hours after that we have action .
Just water for a few days and maintaining high humidity.

There are good genetics and there are genetic masterpieces. The Great Jefa is part of the second case. Truly exceptional.
It is a plant that has vegetated in a graceful and regular manner, the 16 bud topping seems tailor-made for it, all 16 have been successful, I would say excellent.
All this happened in a short time, I don't know if it's the topping but it was practically ready in 6-7 weeks I took it to 8 because it was still very colored with leaves but it was ready for all the rest of the signs. Milky trichomes and lots of amber ones this time I don't think anyone can accuse me of being early. Also because the advance sometimes saves lives from mold.
In this regard, I would like to give the advice NOT TO DO TOO MUCH FLUSH, if the plant is already very mature, washing the roots would risk spoiling the tops. So my advice is to flush at the very first red hairs, when the flower starts to take the color away with the flush, you clean it up and finish composing the flower.
The flowers are really full of resin, a wonderful foliage gave us shades of colors from dark purple to light green and the tips of all the buds and violet.
The trichomes and hashish pulled off the gloves are scary. so much. lots and lots of resin.
The family is sweet-sour, I know Money Maker very much like us and is embellished with Attitude's Californian genetic Runtz.
Greenhouse feeding gave us satisfaction from start to finish with a clever use of Enancher. The plant is still colored because I added some bloom.
A few words must be said for Greenhouse Seeds who, with this declaration work in partnership with the strains, is doing a pretty good job of clarity. Many strains are children of an unknown mother and this exposes them to a thousand defects. Strain motherfuckers aren't tough they're problematic.
Congratulations to Greenhouse always masterpieces.
My favorite from the new line of GHSC masters but the others are arriving...

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.
