Day 62 - Last week was a rinse. This week I returned to watering with the Fox Farm nutes, adding the Bembe and Cha Ching to the trio and Cal Mag. Day 68 - Stacking nicely and the pistols are turning red. Watered with the Fox Farm Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, Cal Mag, Bembe and Cha Ching .

Day 30: Girls are stretching and starting flower😇 pots are getting dry quick so maybe ill have to up water to 1.2l once a day or even out through out the day🤔 Day 31: Gave about 1.3L feeding to all girls! made sure to hydrate coco all the way and gave some water to watertray so they can suck it up if they are still hungry! i cheked ppm on my water but didnt check runoff yet. ppm was 900 with 0.5 convert. ph around 6. will add pics later or tmrw😎 Day 32: gave girls little lighter feeding, around 3ml/L GH nutes b clmag. I was too lazy to take proper pics with better light so took a vid instead😁 Day 33: i was thinking of pinning the tallest cola to scrog but decided against it. Mainly because these girls are doing very well, and my only consern is light burn. I cant get my light as high as i want to, cos my tent is only 180cm and got filter above my light. I think ill need yo setup next grow so my filter is outside of the tent🤔 thx for all commentors on my growquestion/diary! Made my day to hear my babies are doing well without any bigger problems😁💚 Edit: did some LST on bigger colas to avoid lightburn since these girls are strecthing almost 5cm a day😁 hopefully they will keep the same energy on developing buds😉 I checked ppm and pH from runoff; #1 ppm 750 ph 6.6 #2 ppm 750 ph 6.5 #3 ph 6.4 ppm 750 (all ppm converts were made on 0.5 rate) Gonna give low ph watering next day Day 34: Good morning growers😎 this morning i gave my girls quite an heavy feed, 6ml calmag, micro, bloom and 3 ml gro into 5 or so litres. pH around 5.7 and ppm 1100 with 0.5. Pics are coming later afternoon with some runoff numbers😎 stay lifted💚

Day 41 - Everything seems to be going great so far this is my first time using green house nutrients & the plants seem to be loving it! All 3 of my Girl Scout Cookies still don’t seem to be in flower & it’s starting week 7 so I am considering throwing them in my flower tent for a few days to see if that will help push them into flower but all in all very happy with this run so far, Fastbuds never disappoints! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🔥🙏🏼✌️🏼🌱

30.12.24: So I finally became brave enough last night to use LST on my grow for the first time. Watermelon 🍉 is doing much better than the other plants were at this stage, and still better than one that's 7 weeks old already! I'm very pleased with this strain and phenotype so far. As I've implemented the LST much earlier for her, I'm very excited to see what happens in the next couple of weeks 😃 Thanks for checking out my diary 🙂🍃✌️

The girls look good :) I have never raised without LST, this time it will be just like that :)

At the start of week 8 all 3 girls are showing preflowers! They have started stretching a good amount. I will apply nutrients on day 5 just before I leave for vacation. I added 5ml of Flying Skull Z7 to my reservoir. On day 3 of week 8 I added another 5 gal bucket reservoir for my Blumats, which will work through a siphon to essentially raise my reservoir volume to 10 gal for my upcoming vacation. I defoliated the centers of each plant to improve light penetration and airflow. On day 4 of week 8 I took clones from each Pheno. On day 5 of week 8 I applied weekly nutrients. I also filled up and adjusted the PH of my 2- 5 gal reservoirs in preparation for vacation tomorrow (I adjusted the PH to 5.5 in hopes that it will naturally drift up over the week I'm gone to no higher than 6.5). I wont have much updates until the 15th of April 😳🙏 (I will post pics from my security camera while I'm away)

Week 11 Day 71 (15/03/2021): No time to take pics today ✌️ Day 72 (16/03/2021): Looking good but more and more leaves are drying up or turning yellow. But at this point there is definitely no point in stressing the girls by removing them. Although the colours definitely look nice! Day 73 (17/03/2021)💧: Today will be the last watering for the girls so they have a few days to take up the last bits of moisture before harvest. I can’t believe how fast this grow went but I have definitely learned a lot from it. Day 74 (18/03/2021): They look so nice and colourful, definitely an interesting bunch of girls :D Can’t wait for the harvest and cure Day 75 (19/03/2021): No time to take pics today ✌️ Day 76 (20/03/2021): No time to take pics today but harvest day tomorrow!!!! Day 77 (21/03/2021): HARVEST DAY! What a great journey it has been growing these girls. They were so resilient and only started showing symptoms of deficiency in the last few weeks. They are absolutely covered in trichomes and smell very pungent. I think they will be super hard hitters! And it still amazes me how different they all are. Echo is even completely purple! Can’t wait to trim and dry these girls and will definitely make some bubble hash from all the trichomes on the leaves too 🤤 Will follow up with a review soon! (after they’ve cured for a bit)

Tarde en subir el resumen de esta semana porque ya pensaba subir las fotos de la planta cortada, pero por el tono de los tricomas esta si es la última semana, ya el 18/11/22 subire fotos de la planta cortada lista para curar. Mas de esta semana no pasará, luego esperare para subir el resumen de la genética. Volviendo al tema de la planta esta semana solo fue regada con agua, asique el lavado de raíces se cumplió a la perfección.

Such a great week! I’ve never seen such a fast growth before. Since they were ready the girls got transferred in their final pots, 5l pot + 2l extra from the self watering grow box. The soil is ca. 50% coco, 50% soil … well there’s probably about 15% perlite in there as well. They soil mix is amended with ca. 1,5g/l green house feed biogrow. Plus ca. 6g/pot Aktivator. And from now on they will stay in the greenhouse

Que pasa familia. Noticias buenas y malas, de 3 ejemplares, uno nos salió hermafrodita. Empezó a formar plátanos esta semana y al estar tirándolos en ramas distintas, cortamos por lo sano y ADIÓS. Quedan 2 subimos cantidad de comida, pegaron buen estirón, y las flores están formando sin problema alguno. Dejo muchas imágenes y vídeos de esta semana, y ya deducen ustedes.

🌱✨ Gelonade — Seed to Harvest & Smoke Review Grower: DogDoctor Strain: Gelonade (Feminized) Grow Type: Indoor (Tent – LED setup) Cycle Duration: ~13 weeks total (8–9 weeks flowering) Phenotypes: #1 and #2 Environment: Controlled by TrolMaster Ecosystem Lighting: Future of Grow Black Series 600 & ThinkGrow Model 1 Medium: Super Soil (Aptus Holland Amendments) Nutrients: Aptus + Plagron Final Yields: • Pheno #1: 146g dry cured (Grove Bags) • Pheno #2: 159g dry cured (Glass Jars) ⸻ 🌾 From Seed to Strength Our Gelonade journey began with delicate germination — a simple soak in plain water using The Cannakan method, ensuring the seeds awakened slowly and evenly. After 24 hours, they sprouted into life, soon meeting their first home in rich, Aptus-enhanced super soil, carefully inoculated with mycorrhizae and buffered for perfect balance. As seedlings, they thrived under the Black Series 600 LED, their leaves drinking in the full-spectrum light like morning sun on a quiet field. Through their early weeks, the mix of Regulator, Start Booster, and tender care built strong frames and healthy roots. Week after week, they evolved — into vegetative vigor, then into flowering elegance. Their structure hinted at their genetics: 60% sativa, 40% indica — tall, branching, graceful, yet dense. Pheno #2 became our unicorn, flaunting her funky fox-tailed buds and mutated, hand-like leaves — a masterpiece of nature’s playful genetics. ⸻ 🌼 The Flowering Weeks By week 5 flower, the room bloomed with energy. PPFD at 766 µmol/m²/s, temperatures near 31°C, and VPD around 2.2 — conditions that might challenge weaker genetics, but Gelonade only glowed brighter. We refined her diet: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal & Green Sensation – 1 ml/L each This powerful synergy built not just flowers — but living sculptures of resin, terpenes, and color. The TrolMaster WCS2 sensors read the heart of the soil — moisture, EC, and temperature — guiding every watering and feeding to perfect rhythm. ⸻ 🍃 The Science of Drying — Why Whole Plants Harvest came at week 12–13 total, roughly 8–9 weeks in flower. The girls stood proud, covered in trichomes, signaling it was time. We harvested whole plants, hanging them upside down in the dark to dry slowly — preserving terpenes and chlorophyll breakdown naturally. Why full-plant drying? Because leaving the plant intact slows the drying process. The inner moisture in stems and leaves redistributes evenly, preventing harsh chlorophyll notes. This method also preserves volatile terpenes — especially important for Gelonade’s citrus-forward profile. It took two full weeks before the branches “snapped,” a sign of perfect dryness — the balance between crispness and internal moisture. ⸻ ✂️ The Art of Hand Trimming Once dry, we trimmed with Zamnesia curved professional scissors, our Trim Bin, and — most importantly — our hands. Why hand trim? Because machines can never see what the eyes feel — the perfect curl of a sugar leaf, the trichome sparkle worth saving. Hand trimming keeps the resin glands intact, preserving aroma, texture, and bag appeal. It’s slower, but sacred — the final love letter between grower and flower. The trim collected beneath the bin was later pressed gently into hash bars using a hot-water bottle method — pure pressure and warmth, no solvent. The science: The heat softens trichome heads (resin glands), allowing them to fuse together under pressure — forming a natural, terpene-rich concentrate. ⸻ 🌬️ The Curing — Glass Jars vs Grove Bags After trimming, we divided our treasures: • Pheno #1 (146g) cured in Grove Bags – a modern, low-maintenance solution that self-regulates humidity (~62%), keeping buds stable and fresh without constant burping. • Pheno #2 (159g) cured in Glass Jars – the traditional, hands-on approach. We burped the jars daily during the first two weeks, allowing gas exchange and flavor maturation. Science of curing: Curing continues the slow enzymatic breakdown of residual sugars and chlorophyll, smoothing the smoke and deepening terpenes. The difference? Glass develops depth — that old-school flavor complexity — while Grove Bags preserve freshness and consistency. Both are beautiful paths to perfection. ⸻ 🌺 Genetics & Aromas — The Gelonade Signature Gelonade is a masterpiece of Lemon Tree × Gelato #41, combining sweet citrus brightness with creamy dessert undertones. The aroma: Sweet citrus candy, tangy lemon zest, and a whisper of black pepper. The flavor: Like sipping lemonade through a gelato cloud — refreshing, smooth, and joyfully bright. ⸻ 💨 Smoke Review — The Dream in a Dream Lighting the first cured bowl was like opening a memory. The smoke is silky, expanding gently in the lungs. The taste starts citrusy-sweet, then mellows into earthy vanilla-pepper. The high? A sunrise in slow motion — uplifting, creative, euphoric. Happiness washes in waves, followed by peace that lingers in the chest. Perfect daytime medicine, yet balanced enough for evening reflection. Pheno #1 brings clarity and laughter; Pheno #2 brings stillness and grace. Together, they mirror duality — the head and the heart in perfect balance. ⸻ 🌿 Closing Reflections From seed to harvest, this grow has been a story of learning, patience, and passion. Every leaf told a story, every sensor reading a verse, every trichome a spark of life. Thank you to the community, to Zamnesia, Aptus Holland, Plagron, TrolMaster, and all who share love for the craft. And thank you to the haters, too — because growth blooms brightest through resistance. This grow was more than cultivation. It was a dream in a dream.

As you can see it's not a very photogenic plant at the moment, thats why i didn't took her to many pics with quality, but she is getting hugeee. The smell is like a strong mix of haze and something really sweet.

Thursday 16th march day 59 Harvested a couple days earlier then planned as my humidity was getting a bit high and worried about risking mold I decided to chop, have to get a good dehumidifier soon, everything looking lovely, nice and dense with very strong fruity potent smell definitely the best looking plants I have grown to date not the biggest buds but they look quality, chopped plants whole gonna do my best to keep the temp and rh% in the dry room as close 60/60 as I can to get a nice slow dry, 🍁😎 I only took the wet weight from 1 plant back left plant was 270g with large fan leaves removed

It’s the 1st week of flower I flipped the plants to 12/12 a few days ago. There is a lot going on and a lot of cool and amazing things coming in the near future. Make sure to check out my YouTube page. I bought me a DJI gimbal this week. Might be my new favorite toy. The temps are starting to break for the summer. I don’t see it being very long until winter is here and it’s time to use a heater and not an ac unit. All of the plants are healthy. The plants have all grown so well I turned down the light intensity a bit today the plants didn’t seem like they was starting to strech very much. Hopefully the lower light intensity will make them strech out just a bit

Dane, We all should help one another. Human beings are like that. We should live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another, share the Joint. And mother earth is rich and can provide for everyone. We can Grow enough Happiness, In this paradise, there is room for everyone. We only exist to bring joy into the world and The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Grow High and Give the world A smile. At the end we own nothing more then all our memories, lets make them amazing for everyone, nothing to loose only everything to win. A last kiss goodby, a second one, softer and long as a sign, that you are woth it. That Everyone worth who loved and give. Enought Hippie Talk, now have a nice day and an even better grow, thx for watching by. week report main harvest only few days away. 81 1-2 days more maby more 82 a week more maby the 12/12 light seems to slow her down

it's always a pleasure to do business with Barney's Farm!!! They have never let me down even once!! Even in the worst situations and conditions they have always been able to bring out the best for me!! I really enjoyed forcing these plants to see their reactions, but I wouldn't do it again as a technique because it only serves to keep the canopy low but not to increase the yields...or...at least in my case I didn't find it of fundamental importance....maybe a simple cut of the apical top and that was it! but that's fine!😋

The banana mango must be on roids! It’s doubled the size Of the others. If you are looking for a desert plant that handles 100plus F without being bothered - this could be your gal!
