Weekly roundup.
📋 I'm not overly impressed so far with this one. She seems a little slow with development, that may change over the next few days. The Fastbuds strain is really showing this one up.
Just about keeping on top of the conditions at the moment. Bit fucking warm.
Take it easy.
Back soon.

Milky Dreams got harvested 16/11 and I'm planning to let her dry for 14-21 days before trimming and put them in glass+boveda (58%) and grove bags for final cure.
Drying conditions are as follows:
16-18°C
55-60% RH

Everything is still alive thankfully and smells fuckin tremendous. The pictures were taken on day 49 or 50. I'll probly start flushing some of them over the next week the citradellic are lookin close. They kinda all look close even tho I expected some 70 dayers with the mostly sativa crosses but I gotta get in there and check the trichs.
Didnt get enough nug shots of this one, if your interested come back friday and I'll get some more on the next feed.

Week 13,
Harvest time is soon! I was able to give the plant some waterings of KoolBloom and the flushing process has began! I ran some ClearEx in the flushing process with 6.0ph water. This grow has been a great experience and I am excited to see what she looks like once I wet trim her :) I am going to cut down soon and have an update with pics and etc.
It appears the buds did grower denser from the last past week or so. I am glad I pushed the harvest time back, it allowed the buds to pack on a bit more weight it appears.
Let me know if you have any questions/ concerns/ comments. Happy growing Growmies!

New week. 55-65 DLi. The dodecahedron is the only Platonic solid that has infinite numerical pathways. Might mean nothing to you yet, but its means infinity to me.

She grew 12cm this week. Now 27cm tall.
She seems to be very bushy already. It could be a nice sign!

I fell sick. Got diagnosed with gastric ulcer. Thats why i missed the first 3days. Didnt forget to feed her though. Her trichombes clouding up nicely. New growth at the lowest nodes too. Which i dont plan on touching. Harvest time is coming up fast. I can't wait either. New white hairs comin up so im gonna keep feeding. The amount wasnt looking too good either at the beginning but i have better hopes now.

Last week I fought some yellowing of the leaves. Did some small adjustments on PH to keep it in the 5.6 range. Seemed to stop it from progressing.
For Week 3 Veg I topped the plants. I plan to flip the lights at the end of week 3 and move into flower.
Lights are still at 25% power
Day 17
Leaves are getting darker. Everything is looking good.
Day 18
Turned room temp down to 73F from 76F. Fearing it is warming up my res tank too much.
Day 19
Starting to get yellowing again. checked everything and can't find a good reason for it. Did notice some cloudiness in my res tank. Added 2 ML/Gal of peroxide. have Hydroguard on the way to help. I'll be adding more fans this weekend. I have light air movement currently.
Also found a few spider mites and sprayed Greencleaner to all plants.
Current environment settings:
Room Temp 72.74 F
Room Humidity 63.63% (After spraying, Trending down).
Room CO2 589PPM
Tank PH 5.718
Tank PPM (500 Scale) 813
Tank Temp 74.5 F
Day 20
Recalibrated my EC probe just to be sure it was also accurate. wasn't off by much.
Dialed back my flooding to every 5 hours to encourage Rooting. <-- Strong roots = strong Plants
Sprayed for mites again.

2tes Netz gespannt...man weiß vorher nie wie schwer die buds werden🙊
Stretch endet so langsam...daher wäre die Sorte wie gemacht für mein kleines Zelt mit 160 cm wenn man bereits nach 4 Wochen die Blüte einleitet
Seitenbeleuchtung wird nächste Woche angemacht...ca. in der Mitte der 8ten Woche

Plant continues to show growth , slow and steady but maybe it will bust with growth one day, but otherwise I noticed to leaves kind of twisting and curling and such not sure why I barely water them to keep from being overwatered because I noticed the soil does retain water a LOT plan to transplant them in coco coir 50/50 mix fox farm cream of the crop but till then they will remain in Fox farm ocean forest( maybe the soil is overloaded with nutes for this strain) 😬(and me amending not making it any better)

The end of the fourth week. Only 2,5 to 3 weeks to go, since this is the FAST version of Gelato 33 by Advanced seeds.
Last week temps were better, so that was a lot better to manage. The smell is a different story. We are trying to combat it as we speak with a double filter which my friend still had from a previous grow.
The ladies are performing, however, because this is a monstercrop with many budsites, none of them will be very big. We anticipate a lot of cutting come harvest time.
The stickieness and smell (cookies, dough, herbs, spices, gingerbread, vanilla) promise a lot to make up for that hopefully!!
The middle plant that seemed to go fastest, now looks like to have the hardest time flowering. Her more advanced stage of flowering as a bigger clone, made it harder for her to return to veg, which she never really did.
This seems to make her want to rush to the finish, as she is already browning the pistils. Also these buds seem more flakey, popcorny. As if the many flowers and grapelike bundled growth was too much for her.
I put the light a little closer, to help her fatten up in the time she is given. I never expected the two 'runts' to outperform the mighty middle clone, but hey seem to fatten up and age much more nicely.
So for now, prelimenary tip: make sure all your plants are completely revegged before flowering and consider that faster flowering species might have some ruderalis ancestry that might siderail all your lighting intentions and remains in flower what ever the growers lighting schedule.
So with at least two more weeks for the two outer plants, and well see how many for the middle one, we are going to make them as comfortable as possible the final push of this flowering.
Thank you for following and see you next week!!

Incredibly, they both gave almost the same, 70 grams each.
good quality but it was below expectations
I felt a difference compared to the autos in the first round.
maybe my fault or genetics 🤔😅🤪

Added a second scrog net for the taller plants last Friday. Constantly defoliating to increase light penetration but not trying to stress the plants. (Selective leaf picking)
Plants loved the tea I have them last week. Visual improvements in every plant 2 days later.
Top dressing later this week on 9/29:
5 tablespoons Gaia green 444
5 tablespoons Gaia Green 284
15 tablespoon Wiggle Worm Earth Worm Castings
Light increased to 75%

Empezamos el lavado de raíces ya. Parece que va a seguir engordando un poco. Muy buena estatura y buenos cogollos por estar en maceta de 5 litros. No se bien que genética es pero tiene mucho pino y limón.
Estaré 7/10 días lavando raíces y a la poda. Ya les mandaré resultados gente. Gran abrazo
