In general I'm very happy growing this strain. The germination rate was 100%, all 3 sprouted, even though one ended up dying after some weeks. My fault here, she grew upside down and when I moved her she didn't reacted well. The growing conditions were initially a little unstable as I couldn't find the right balance between temperature and RH, having the latter one constantly too low, making me buy an humidifier to keep the level higher. Well, too high in the lights off period, and when distracted could reach up to 99% RH, which isn't good. Again, lesson learned for the next grow. Maybe I've defoliated the plant a little too much and that might have also affected the crop a little. When it comes to feeding, didn't use so much plain water, the feeding were nutrient based all the time. Not sure if this had any negative effects in the plant. Was fun to train the plant and I learnt a lot about topping. To be fair, I don't know if this was what affected her final crop or if I stunned her in the last defoliation. Quite inclined for that option.. After all this, finish with this amount of bud is ok and positive lessons were taken for the coming grows. Overall I think I made a few beginner mistakes that affected the plant growth and flower, but again, having no pests, plagues, or any diseases was already a very good accomplishment and I'm really looking forward to start the next grow, and enjoy the smoke from this little one after drying and curing. As it was the first diary ever, was very fun to do it, and helped a lot controlling crucial parts of the growth. Definitely will keep posting here my future grows. Thank you all for following this diary, for the likes, all comments and answers to my questions. Without your feedback wouldn't have got this far. Smoke report will follow when the bud is ready, now is hanging and drying. Thank you all

The Gelato is growing regularly hopefully well. We spray neem solution + potassium soap every 3 days for protection and lord grow nourishing foliar every 15 days for leaf nutrition and co2 protection.

Just finished week 4. Plants are stacking nicely. The colas will begin to swell and bulk. I just pulled this clone down after a trial run the month before. I'd click the subscribe button now if you haven't.

🌸 Week 15 from Seed / Week 4 Flower – The Art of Defoliation 🌿 Welcome back to the journey of The White OG by Seedsman Seeds. This week marks a powerful turning point — the mid-flower defoliation — a sacred act of giving space, light, and breath to a girl who’s ready to bloom big. She’s thriving beautifully under the Future of Grow Black Series 600W system, and still running strong on the Aptus Clean Program: • Regulator • System Clean • RO Water Conditioner • All-in-One Liquid The mix lands with a pH of 5.97, an EC of 1.20, and water temp at 18.2°C — right on point. 🌬️ This week’s star event? A serious defoliation. We removed large fan leaves that were shading critical bud sites, allowing light to pour in and airflow to circulate. This isn’t just pruning — it’s breathing room. It’s strategy. It’s sculpting the future. She’s expressing herself now some funky leaf formations, even buds forming in the leaf base itself, a unique phenotype with personality. This is what makes each grow magical. Why defoliation now? • Week 4 is the sweet spot: flowers are forming, stretch is slowing, and now’s the time to open up the canopy without stressing her too much. • It increases light penetration and reduces risk of mold or pests by improving airflow. • It directs energy to the buds, not the blocked, lower leaves. And now she stands proud in her scrog net, breathing deep, stretching wide. She’s no longer hiding. She’s becoming. ⸻ Huge thanks as always to the amazing GrowDiaries community, to Seedsman, to Aptus Holland, to the Future of Grow team, To TrolMaster and to all of you: the followers, supporters, growers, learners, lovers, and even the haters — we grow together 🌱 💚 Come join the journey over on Instagram and YouTube — where the Dognabis Cup is blooming into something beautiful too.

The Specials continue to flower like nobodys business while the Purples are still slow in their reaction to the change in lighting. Despite the similar names these two strains do not seem to accompany each other well. I cant see how the special will not bee ready for harvest at least two weeks prior to the Purples, but we will see. At least the purples are picking up on the stretch a little so they may not fall too much behind the specials. Doesnt matter, by now I got almost every plant standing on its on little something to get an even canopy. Also noticed a faint sweet/creamy smell developing, going in a good direction. This weeks feeding schedule (and also a bit next week) sees a slow change from grow to bloom nutrients. I perform that change a little faster on the Specials, as they are actually already making flowers.

Week 7 Flower Report – The Masterpiece Garden Unfolds 🌱 Introduction Welcome back to the most thrilling chapter of our journey yet! Week 7 of flower is here, and the garden has transformed into a paradise of unique beauty and diversity. Every plant has its own personality, showcasing the results of all the hard work, dedication, and love poured into this run. Let’s dive into the details and celebrate these girls like never before—because they deserve it! 🌸 Plant-by-Plant Breakdown Papaya Zoap The rebel queen of the garden, aiming for the stars with her towering structure. Her dense, frosty white nugs sparkle like diamonds, and her leaves are fading to a stunning yellow hue—a clear sign she’s ready to shine. Her aroma is captivating, leaving no doubt she’s going to be a showstopper. Gorilla Melon Standing tall as the second in command, this beauty is all strength and vigor. Her vibrant green foliage cradles thick, frosty buds that exude a fragrance worthy of her name. A true contender for the title of MVP. RS11 This one’s a frost factory! Long, elegant buds dripping in trichomes, with leaves gracefully fading to yellow as she transitions toward the finish line. Her balanced stature and impeccable structure make her a dream to cultivate. Green Papaya The frostiest of them all, her sugar leaves are curling under the weight of so much resin. Every glance reveals a shimmering coat of trichomes that’s hard to believe. If frost were a competition, she’d already have the gold medal! Mandarin Squeeze Dark and mysterious, this beauty stands out with her rich, deep green tones and impressively dense buds. Her flowers feel like rocks, and her aroma hints at a citrusy explosion waiting to happen. Punch Pie What can we say about this heavyweight? Her large, dense buds are jaw-dropping, and her presence in the tent is commanding. She’s proving to be a genetic masterpiece, delivering beyond expectations. 🌞 Environmental Mastery This week, we’ve begun the slow decline of PPFD to 750, keeping reds and UVs strong while easing back on whites—a calculated move to guide these girls into the final stages. The room’s stats speak volumes: • Temps: 27.8°C with RH at 64.8%. • CO2: 800 ppm for consistent growth energy. • Reservoir: PH 6.16, TDS 791, temp 21°C. • Soil Stats: TDS 669, temp 22°C. Even the fun facts are worth noting: leaf temps are ranging between 26.6°C and 24.2°C, while the LED bars are holding steady at 38°C, and the ICL-300 at 35.6°C. Aero Fan at 23°C and the filter output at 24.7°C highlight the precision and control in this room, all thanks to the incredible TrolMaster ecosystem. 💧 Feeding and Nutrient Update Our transition from organic minerals to a solo mineral approach has been a game-changer. These girls are thriving! Here’s the recipe this week: • System Clean: 0.25 ml/L. • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L. • All-in-One Liquid: 1.75 ml/L. • K-Boost: 0.5 ml/L. • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L. This blend is bringing out the best in each plant, delivering unparalleled frost, density, and aroma. The stability of the pH, thanks to minerals, has made life simpler while pushing the plants toward peak performance. 🌟 Reflecting on Progress It’s a joy to walk into this room and witness the results of months of effort. Each plant is delivering on its promise, and the smells, colors, and trichome production are truly next-level. The journey has been demanding, but the rewards are sweeter than ever. The curiosity to see how they finish is at an all-time high! 💬 Shoutouts and Community Love As always, massive gratitude to the sponsors that make this possible: • TrolMaster for precise environmental control. • Aptus Holland for top-tier nutrients. • Cannakan for their unwavering support. • Pro-Mix Soil for a robust foundation. • Seed Banks for the incredible genetics.

The last few weeks of her in flower week 9…she smells lovely

topped August 28th 2018

I am aiming for a well structured green screen. After topping they have started a scary growth, I hope for the 6 week of vegetative they are nice big and compact to generate big bright buds. Good luck growes🍁

5.6oz with a 3 week Veg in a 3 gallon, I'd say it was a good harvest

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

27/02: the plants that looked wilted in the previous week have come back to life as they are being fed 1 litre of water now - it was an underwatering issue. all plants including the ones that were lagging behind have exploded with their stigmas and there are plenty of bud sites throughout. humidity is still a bit of an issue though I am installing an industrial sized dehumidifier into the grow tent as of next week. again there is some over crowding though I do not want to stress the plants by taking too many leaves at this stage. will give it at least another week before another trim. plants are on average around 30 inches high. reacting well to the nutes and all is going well.

Hello friends Still good with this plant, For the moment no problem with her, easy grow, she like be touched, and fertilizer. This week I've start pk 13-14. She have a really nice smeel and lot of pollen, I think bud will be not really big, because short vege, next time I'll put more plant. All continue to be good, I hope harvest for end of this month or start December. Next week I'll start to publish pic of trychromes. I'm in late in my diaries, my phone was broke and needing to got my pics in my old phone. Have a good week, grow and smoke. See you next week 😊😊

Things are looking real good now. Blueberry is in full stretch and she’s gonna be a big girl. Grapefruit coming along real nice after early struggles. I am having some issues with light burn on my blueberry, but I think it’ll be alright. Absolute explosive growth from the blueberry monster this week. She’s up to 43 inch and I’m loving the spacing she has. As you can see, not very much lst going on here, but that’s how I like it. Grapefruit has been chugging along real nice. Just starting to flower now and she’s a bushy gal. I’m really looking forward to the flowering weeks ahead. I think these two are gonna be pretty.

November 20th 80 days into the grow and pistols have begun, I didn’t take many photos but was questioning whether this was an auto due to the delay in flower

So those girls were transfered from main room, theirs veg story you'll find in Checkpoint diary by Sweet Seeds. In reality they veged for 5 weeks, beans didn't want to sprout, so planted two more. One from first two- didn't make it... Everything with them postponed a bit and i decided to try out other training method and new version/interpretation of FIMing. They got 30 hours of darkness, looked sad a bit, but just 3 hours under new sun - they are happy as f@ck again ;))) Will feed them later today with full range of BioBizz. Will update charts. Day 6. Girls loved food, no big stretch yet ... Happy Growing !!!
