This week I did a fair amount of work on my grow. I did a bit of defoliation and spent some time tying down branches to shape the canopy. My goal is to get buds growing wall to wall! I can't wait to see the results of my efforts.

Not much to do now but watch the pH and PPM and wait. It looks beautiful. The growing structure of the buds is really interesting, it has like four calyxes with pistils coming out of the top of a lot of buds in a really distinctive way. It's super, super frosty too. The GG#4 genetics are already showing. Interesting smell, hard to describe. Still relatively mild, at least in the grow tent with the filter running. There's some burning on the leaves, yellowing at the edges. I think I got a bit complacent about checking on it this week since it's been so easy. I also think I should have pruned some of the smaller branches, even just for my own enjoyment of the aesthetics on top of the benefits for airflow and nutrient use. I'll probably do that this week. Then 2 weeks to harvest! I'm impressed with this strain so far, as well as very impressed with the DWC method VS soil or coco but still have a soft spot for organic soil. If I can find a veganic hydroponic nutrient mix I'll be stoked.

Recien comenzando a tirar muchos pistilos indicando que comienza la floracion!

Day 70! They are showing signs of foxtailing due to the light intensity. Time to go!!! Temps, humidity, and CO2 are prime. I pulled the Super Skunk, the Maui Waui’s, and the Gorilla Glue #4 into their light deprivation area for the next 60 hours or so. It gets dark when i drop the Cloth curtain. I also have a Durban Poison already hanging. Got tired of looking at her about a week ago. I will post some close up pics with those HIDs off and some normal light right before i cut them. There are a few more ripening up in the flower room. They will all be done over the next 2 weeks.

Second week of flowering in the bag, and they’re all looking really healthy, even healthier than when I first threw them in the flower steady as she goes

Week 3 Update Day 18 (VT18): The nutrient comparison has been running for a week now. While it's too early to draw conclusions about plant performance, the effort required for preparing the irrigation water is clear: GHF is the quickest, followed by BioBizz, and Advanced Nutrients takes the most time. The new pots are amazing—no water leaking out the sides during watering, and the zipper feature for moisture control is a game-changer! Attaching today’s pictures along with a poll for your input. Cam Check Issue: While away, I noticed on the cam that GHF#2 has started curling its lower leaves. It’s well-watered, treated identically to BioBizz#1. Should I repot with fresh soil? Day 20 (VT20) – GHF#2 Emergency: As the title suggests, GHF#2 is in serious trouble. I’ve ruled out overwatering, tap water issues, CalMag deficiency, and soil quality. BioBizz#1, which received the same treatment, is fine. The only variable is the GHF nutrients added during repotting: 2g GHF BioBloom per liter 1g GHF Enhancer per liter Symptoms: All fan leaves are curling from the bottom upwards, while shoots remain unaffected. Unsure what’s causing this, I replaced the substrate entirely with BioBizz LightMix and skipped any additional nutrients for now. The discarded #3 plant was on the windowsill but has been returned to the tent as a backup. It’s looking rough but might be better than losing GHF#2 entirely. Unfortunately, this development jeopardizes the nutrient comparison for GHF, as I’m confident it’s not overfertilization. Let’s see if GHF#2 recovers in LightMix. If it does, the issue was the nutrients. Day 23 (VT23): BioBizz#1: Thriving as expected, consistent with past grows using BioBizz. GHF#2: Still struggling, with all fan leaves curling. Growth is significantly slower than the others. AN#4: Incredible growth and root development—roots are visible everywhere after just five days. Unfortunately, GHF#2's condition has worsened: curling is now spreading to the shoots, moving from the bottom upwards. Growth has stalled almost entirely over the past four days. Next Steps: GHF#2 is likely beyond saving. I may replace it with #3, though its week on the windowsill has stunted its growth. Catching up to AN#4 seems unlikely. I’m considering moving BioBizz#1 alongside AN#4 in the main tent, while #3 gets 1-2 weeks in the smaller tent. However, I’m unsure if #3 should remain with GHF nutrients. It hasn’t been fed yet, and starting an organic regimen this late might not work. Side Note: My girlfriend insisted on saving #3—seems like fate played a hand, and so far, she’s been proven right! 😅 Attaching updated pictures for your insights.

Un breve resumen de esta planta sería "La Green Gelato de RQS ha sido todo un descubrimiento". Empezamos el cultivo a mediados/finales de mayo. Se plantó directamente en la maceta final de 17l. Desde ese momento hasta la fecha de corte solo se regó con agua, durante toda la vida de la planta no se aplicó ningún tipo de fertilizante ni en crecimiento ni en floración. No tuvo ningún apoyo por parte de focos, se utilizó únicamente la luz del sol. Cuando llovía se ponían bajo techo para evitar la aparición de hongos o moho. No hay mucho mas que destacar ya que para el cuidado que se le dio, las fotos hablan por si solas. No hay duda de la calidad de este banco y de sus genéticas. Nota; Al final de la floración hubo aparición de hongos, se retiraron y no hubo mas problemas.

hello everyone we some part in flowering with 8 Ricky G-41s and we find ourselves with 4 beautiful little females and 4 males that I cut at the beginning of the week. our ratios and 50/50 isn't crazy or I'm not lucky with girls. kisses to all and happy Growing

📆 Week 11, 30 June - 6 July 2024 30 June - 6 July - Observed and let the plant grow. 📑 All is great with this little lady. She is entering her final week of flower, just before a flush. The smell is very strong, leaves are fading nicely, and buds have swollen. The pistils have turned brown and trichomes are almost at 10% amber. She is at her peek of ripeness. 🍶 nutrient solution not changed 🍽️ feeding schedule not updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🔆 Light power at 50%, DLI 40 canopy coverage at 18hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Tag 57: Die Green Gelato wächst sehr gut. Ich hoffe sie streckt sich die kommenden Woche nicht zu sehr.

Apple fritter and wilson! Zero are 7 weeks from popping the seed's in ro water ph to 6.2 and mystery mix, Geist grow are 4 weeks from popping the seed's same process as above. Blumat watering system 3x3 area for growing 4 plants in 4 10gallon fabric pots in living soil top feed with compost tea and foliage spray (LABS) lactic acid bacteria. 2 x TS1000 and I use pod tech to feed my worms with down to earth amendments.

Topped this girl this week, she’s growing pretty good. Very nice looking plant to my eye.

Cut one of the two last week and this one will hang this week

The ladys got topped a few days ago. They are still doin fine. My Favorite so far is pheno #2

Helllooo, schönen Sonntag und 4. Advent euch =)🎄 🌱 Wochenupdate Es läuft weiterhin alles wie geplant =D Jetzt, wo alle größeren Maßnahmen durch sind, ist der Run deutlich ruhiger geworden. Aktuell steht alles unter dem Motto Monitoring, ich nehme lediglich kleine Optimierungen vor =) Die 4 Genetiken beginnen deutlich unterschiedliche Morphologien zu zeigen, und ich liebe es 😍💚 Verschiedene Grüntöne, Blattformen, Harzbildung und Wachstum, geiler Scheiß =D 🔥 Bin so gespannt, wie es in Full Flower aussehen wird 🌸 Das Einzige, was mich etwas stört, ist, dass das Canopy unebener geworden ist, als ich es mir erhofft hatte.. Mir war klar, dass es ein frommer Wunsch ist, komplett even zu bleiben, aber dass es doch so holprig wird, habe ich nicht erwartet 😅 Da die beiden pushy Ladies auf derselben Seite stehen, sollten die Lichtverhältnisse trotzdem im gesamten Canopy weiterhin im akzeptablen Bereich bleiben =) Rückblickend war ich beim Sorten auch einfach zu ambitioniert, was mir jetzt ein wenig in den Hintern beißt =D Mir fehlen freie Meshes, um wirklich noch flacher zu führen. Sonst bin ich bis hierhin super zufrieden und freu mich einfach wie ein kleines Kind jedes Mal, wenn ich meinen Kopf ins Zelt stecke =D💚 🌿 Pflanzenstatus & Training Overall habe ich jetzt Ende der Woche nochmals funktional unter der Canopy entlaubt, um eine gute Luftzirkulation aufrechtzuerhalten 🍃 Über der Canopy entferne ich weiterhin selektiv nur Blätter, die beginnen, Schatten zu werfen, nach innen wachsen oder sich übereinander legen 😊 Blueberry Cupcake ist vom Stiel bis zum Ansatz voll mit Trichomen =) Sie sieht jetzt schon echt heftig aus 🔥 Ich bin leider ein bisschen erkältet aktuell – das nächste Mal gibt’s ein Geruchs-Review =D Purpz ist gleichauf mit BBCC, würde ich sagen 😊 Dasselbe Maß an Trichom-Bildung, etwas weitere Internodien-Abstände und an den Blättern sieht man die Sativa-Genetik durchkommen =) 🌿 Auch jetzt schon wirklich ein Hingucker, finde ich 😄 Notorious THC ist von den Blättern eher in einer Indica-Richtung unterwegs. Raue, pralle Blätter mit ausgeprägten Adern 💪 Musste hier echt erst mal mit anderen Runs vergleichen, um sicherzugehen, dass das so auszusehen hat =D Trichom-Bildung hat hier auch eingesetzt, aber aktuell noch eher unspektakulär konservativ 😊 Um den Ansatz und leicht auf den Blättern, am Stiel nur minimal 🌱 Guzzlerz entwickelt sich auch wie sie soll, hängt nur nach wie vor echt hinterher 😅 Sie hat schöne kleine Blütenstände, die Trichom-Bildung hat bei ihr allerdings erst begonnen. Bin echt gespannt, was da noch kommt =) Aktuell wirkt sie einfach zart 💚 Und trotz allem bin ich auch einfach wirklich glücklich darüber, dass ich das Projekt dann eben mit einem Nachzügler wie geplant starten konnte 😊 ⚙️ System Top-Ups erhalten die Lösung weiterhin =) 1,15 kPa VPD 700–800 ppm CO₂ im Durchschnitt EC 2000–2100 µS/cm 1000 PPFD Danke für eure Zeit mal wieder 😊 Schöne Weihnachten 🎄 schöne Feiertage und lasst es euch gut gehen =)💚

Missed a few weeks due to I.T. problems. She has been going great really filling out her colas, she is super frosty & sticky & has a nice sweet/earthy smell. Added scrog net help seperate branches & open up the middle of plants. She has just finished her 6th week of flower

Added a photo to show where I take RH/Temp measurements from in the tent, pretty much inside the canopy. Went lower on EC this week to give the plant a little time to regenerate and pack some more before harvest. The dehumidifier is pulling less and less moisture out of the air every day, this is a additional sign to me that the plant is nearing its end. Not quite sure when to harvest, maybe next week or the week after, the plant isn't really stacking, it is frosty but I am missing the quantity, the pictures are kinda deceiving. Values are average of the day.

The Inzanes are located on the far left side of the tent. They occupy the two outside rows (6 pots total). They are growing nice and quick with the two middles growing slightly slower. Also shorter stature to the middle two plants. Flip is on the horizon. Just waiting for the last blue gelato to establish roots and then its flip time.

Flower day 31 - Having a little trouble with the temperature getting higher than I would like because my dehumidifier puts off some heat while it’s running so it’s been a constant struggle to keep the environment in this tent stable! Definitely will not have so many plants next run lol, but all in all the ladies are growing great & I can’t wait to see how they turn out! Thanks for following friends & happy growing!✌️🏼🌱 Flower day 33 - Fed half the plants today with PH at 6.4 to try and keep the humidity down some I’ll water the other half tomorrow!
