Gelato 33 — Harvest Report This week marks the end of a very successful run with Gelato 33. After monitoring the trichomes closely, the plant was taken down at the perfect moment: cloudy trichomes with a touch of amber, signalling peak cannabinoid and terpene expression. ⸻ 🔬 Trichome & Maturity Check • ~80–85% cloudy • ~10–15% amber • Very few clear trichomes Ideal for a strong, balanced hybrid effect without losing freshness. ⸻ 🌿 Bud Characteristics Gelato 33 showed all the classic traits: • Dense medium-size buds • Thick resin coating • Long, orange pistils • Beautiful purple/green tones depending on the cola • Extremely sticky during trimming Aroma exploded during harvest: Sweet, creamy dessert notes + earthy gas. ⸻ ✂️ Harvest Processing • Light wet-trim (fan leaves only) • Whole plant hung upside down for a slow dry • Branch spacing maintained for airflow This ensures maximum terpene preservation. ⸻ 🌬️ Drying Conditions • Temperature: 18–19°C • Humidity: 52–55% • Airflow: indirect, very gentle • Total planned drying time: 10–14 days ⸻ ⚖️ Yield Wet weight from trimming photo: ➡️ 586 g (wet) Final dry weight will be updated after curing. ⸻ General Impression of the Strain Gelato 33 proved to be: • Stable • Highly resinous • Resistant to stress & mold • Strong smell but controllable Definitely a keeper-worthy phenotype.

This Canadian Turkey Day we are thankful for the ability to grow 🔥 at home with access to great products! We are also thankful to GrowDiaries for this invaluable diary function and for the community of helpful gardeners. We are 11 weeks to solstice so this will be the last grow to bring some sunshine into the new year. I grew these strains outside and now we are trying to bring them inside. Our friendship plant has outgrown her pot and ‘pot head’ is ready for a new hairstyle. She’d make an adorable mother with a clone from this grow! Then set up a terrarium for her and train her real pretty. Oct 9: dropped seed in shot glass of water Oct 10: paper towel on plate with seed mat Oct 11: root emerging, paper got a little dry, spritz spritz and fingers crossed Oct 12: roots look good, planted in 2oz cup of organic potting mix that I figured would be fine for the first week, placed under humidity dome, in the terrarium. I instantly hate the potting mix. It’s dusty and heavy. Shit. Big mistake. Oct 14: We have a seedling! Oct 16: She hasn’t grown! And the other is pushing up but still wearing her coat. Oct 17: Our seedlings are not taking off and I’m really annoyed at the substrate I used already, it’s so compact. I’m still waiting on the grow bags that I ordered, arriving tomorrow.. I’m not happy yet with any of the potting mixes I’ve been testing and this is the worst one yet. It’s crucial I figure out a mix I can manage because I’m a chronic overwaterer and I want to give my roots a fighting chance. We are upgrading this grow with a pro-mix cx grow bag and praying it’s a keeper after all these fails. If I like it then I can easily pick up a bail. I know they use these commercially here. But she’s already stunted? Will she make it? 🤨 should I just start over? Spritz spritz. Seed hat is just sitting above the soil also not moving. While I wait for my substrate, I used up all that organic potting soil that I now hate to refresh the friendship plant and for propagating her cuttings. Anything would be better than the 500ml of dried out stuff she had left from 3 years ago! She deserves better but this is exactly the type of crap she thrives on. I’m grateful that she keeps coming back for me and I’m grateful for all the baby plants she lets me share ❤️ and I’m grateful I’ve been buying small bags of substrates thus far. Started 1 original lemon pie seed as a back up since this germination round appears to be a bust. Oct 18: so the girl I had all my hopes pinned on died, spritzed her with water and she lay down. The soil is like wet cement, my fault but an expensive mistake. Lost 10 seeds plus a bunch of other herbs I was starting 😭 Still waiting on delivery of my good soil. Update: pro-mix cx bags arrived and I rehydrated one with about 3 litres of calmag enriched water. There’s about 500ml overflow that I’m recirculating to make sure we are truly hydrated over the next 24 hours while I wait for a new tribute to come forth.. I wasn’t going to bother but decided to transfer the little seedling that was wearing a hat into a pinch of the cx and she seemed to perk up almost immediately once out of that other crap. Wishful thinking? We will know soon. 2 hours later and she’s definitely growing! We have an OG survivor for this grow and can proceed. We are very GRATEFUL

4-5 Harvested finally, well finally for me. 😂 Big ol, stinky and sticky buds. Density is not an issue! 💪😂 Loved this grow! Went really smooth, with me freaking out occasionally 😂 No over/under water and no over feed! FINALLY!!! Wow met lots of new and great people this grow! You people in this community rock! 💚 Now enough of the mushy stuff. Guy says once dried, we should have right around 3 ounces. Lets see how good his guesstimate is. 🙏🙏💪😁😻🤘

1 er Cycle : Gourmande e crossance et Flo ... La Tangerine Dream est une variété de cannabis à dominance sativa au goût acidulé, doux et intense. Les arômes d'agrumes ainsi que les effets qui sont à la fois cérébral et relaxant satisferont aussi bien les amateurs de THC comme les amateurs de CBD. Les juges de la Cannabis Cup 2010 étaient d'accord avec cette description car ils l'ont élu comme la meilleure variété de cannabis 2010. Barney's Farm annonce un temps de floraison de 60-65 jours, ce qui est court pour une variété sativa aussi puissante. La Tangerine Dream donne des plantes de un mètre de haut en intérieur avec beaucoup de branches latérales robustes. La production de la Tamngerine Dream est impressionnante, 600 gr/m2 en indoor. Les têtes sont grandes, compactes et recouvertes de pistils rouges orangés ainsi que d'une résine très odorante remplie de THC. L'effet de la Tangerine Dream de Barney's Farm dure longtemps. Quant à ses parents, la G13 est une variété de cannabis légendaire reconnue pour ses saveurs intenses ainsi que ses effets très puissants et la Neville's A5 Haze est une plante exotique raffinée. La Tangerine Dream de Barney's Farm est une variété de cannabis très productive et de floraison courte. Les taux de THC et de CBD annoncés par Barney's Farm sont exceptionnels car peu de variétés du marché actuel arrivent à 25% de THC et 1.8 de CBD. Parfait rien a dire. 2 ème Cycle:

DAY 50 Defoliated a bit, hoping to slow her down, but I'm writing this day 51 and she is 94cm now.. unstoppable! 😶 Pre-flower started day 40. So maybe we can walk thru the fire with our heads straight.. 🙏 DAY 52 99cm now. Watered with Biobizz, did a normal bloom dosage.. 💧 I will be raising calmag a bit now, EC of water will be 0,6-0,7. DAY 54 108cm :crane: DAY 55 114cm 😬 😬 😬 Watered with 4L nutrient solution + 1L BioEnhancer solution 💧 🐟 Removed some lower stems in the shades. Twisted the two long stems with shorter stems from the sides, so the shorter stems are more in the middle, the longer stems are more at the edges now. 😅 DAY 56 118cm.. :metal: Thinking about a ZZ Top logo.. maybe I will have to drastically snap the two branches.. I actually feel adventurous about it. 😎 ... 2 hours later: I did it, I snapped the stems (not completely). Let's pray for healing. 🙏 The stems make the ingwaz rune now, the seed. Oh so metaphorical. 😤 It represents taking time to grow & transform, peace, silence, bursting into manifestation. ✨ Which reminds me of the pollen in the freezer.. it's time now! 🐝 LED running at 100% now. Distance is between 25 and 40cm. 💚 Wishing you a great week! 😘 __________________________________________________ SET UP Mars Hydro LED TS1000 sponsored by @marshydrococo2 😘 https://www.mars-hydro.com/led-grow-lights/ts-1000-led-grow-light custom exhaust fan 270/320 m³/h 3x Garden High Pro fans 5W tap water EC 0,25 - adding Calmag (Plant Magic) to EC 0,4-0,6 - adding pH minus Bloom (AHH) to pH 6,5 biobizz Lightmix - later Plantaflor organic tomato soil 🍅

Still HOT and dry! Full sun almost every day, and she's loving it. Pistils are wildly long, and buds surprisingly fat for this early, maybe she will be a early October harvest? Hoping the weather holds out! Did another compost tea (Epsom, Kelp, Molases and Compost, aerrate 24hrs), wildly foamy this time, tons of microbes ready to get to work. Will squeeze in a final top dress of Gaia Green Power Bloom next week. All in all looking great, haven't done any more defoliating, buds are spaced nice, may snip a few fan leaves here and there covering bud sites, but it's hard to get to them being so tall, so hoping for the best. Getting some rain, maybe thundershowers over the next week, still spray link LCPT for PM, and BT for Caterpillars. Did find a ton of eggs on the underside of a fan leaf, so BT is necessary.

Beginning of week.. I am beginning the flush today.. I ran some FloraKleen thru the medium.. Then just watwr tomorrow.. Then FloraKleen once more the next day.. Then just water till harvest! Not even going to pH the water and I want to see if it brings up the runoff pH any.. Just for shits and giggles, I suppose. Look at those colas! Man, they are gonna be delicious! Mid week.. Wow.. These girls are maturing quick! I think I could harvest in the next couple days.. But 1 more week should do wonders! They are both neck and neck with eachother it seems.. A few ambers starting to pop up all over the top colas.. I think by next week they should be perfecto!!! So excited! I did a super late defoliation.. I know that is not ideal to do this so late.. But the humidity is getting crazy out of control at times.. It doesn't sit there very long.. But my dehumidifier is much needed. The fans should be helping combat any mold.. I hope 🤞🤞🤞 should be fine.. These are some super sense nugs! Even the lower nugs are pretty dense! So so SO excited!!! End of week... Posted a video this update.. Plants are looking great! The Mandarin Cookies is flopping all over the place lol.. I COULD harvest now.. But I'm going to wait 1 more week.. They should be perfect! That will be 10 weeks from 12/12.. As of today.. The mediums of both plants should be good and flushed by now.. I've been using unpH'd rainwater to flush (30 - 40 PPM at 7.0 pH).. And some FloraKleen (2x for both plants) and now the runoff is reading about 80 PPM at 6.8 pH for the ETHOS Cookies and about 100 PPM at 6.3 pH for the Mandarin Cookies.. Very excited for this run to be over.. Kinda wanna try a 1 plant ScrOG'd in this 2'x4' tent under the Optic Slim 320H before I swap out tents and start bustin out the autoflowers till it's cool again 😎 but I am ready to start smokin these ladies! Anyways... On to the LAST week!!!...

This strain likes to stretch a lot so in full swing. Bottom leaves crumbling and turning brown/ yellow. This is in a shared autopot base so increasing nutrient dosages throughout.

02/23 - Day 51 Seems like the extra teas of Cal/Mag, Girl Flower Power, and Epsom Salt has stopped the curling and dying of leaves. Just trying to hold on to the ones I have left! Buds seem to be progressing well, (D) seems to be behind but she lost a lot of leaves. (B) (C) are getting some dense little buds. All of the girls are starting to show some purple hues on the leaves. 02/26 - Day 54 Things are progressing and I’m happy with the results so far. Really seeing the buds get tighter and starting to look like little clumps of pebbles. (B) & (C) have some sweet/citrus aromas coming out. Pistils are starting to change colors.

Popped in 5 only 1 popped out. Very disappointed but excited to see the one grow. Thinking I may have popped in the soil prematurely.

Week 2 - the growth is very good and I can see a healthy root development at the bottom. I watered twice this week - a little dryback in the first weeks should be good to promote roots. DLI 20 / EC 1.2

This girl has been topped twice. She has responded really well. The plants look like they could take a feed so I'm going to start introducing nutrients again and a quarter the recommended dose and raise this gradually before flipping them all to flower in a weeks time.

Here we are day 58(day 29 of flower) and this girl is looking alright. The ridiculous stretching has stopped and now the buds are starting to get bigger. In one part of the video, you can see where my LST ties started cutting into the thick stalk. This may have caused the erratic stretching. Luckily I found it in time. I think this plants will be all nice nuggets. Even the lower buds are already nice sized! Looking forward to see how she finishes.

Love the strain. There was heat stress, and for such much light 2x2 tent would be better. After curing: Tasty as hell grape "cold" flavour, body tranqulizing high, after few hits from the bong its a good idea to chill and watch a movie. Absolutley love the smoke in the end, from bag appeal to high :)0

Všechno probíhá hladce, jediné co nedodržuji je vpd. Musím říct, že club41 je neskutečný... Osypany jako kdyby na něm byl půl roční prach a to máme teprve 5 týden a bez UV. Další kolo pojedu s UV doplnkem a opravdu mě zajímá jak to dopadne.
