Black Cherry Gushers - Barney's Farm Day 102 - watered with 3L of RO tap water with nutrients, mixed individually, in order and then pH'd to 6.3. She has finished bulking her flower and is now maturing, her leaves and part of her flower have started to take on a dark purple colour indicating that she coming close to the end of her lifecycle. I have started to reduce the amount of nutrients I've been giving her, as I prepare her for harvest. I will continue to do this untill her final week, when she will be given just plain RO tap water; this is known as the flushing process. Day 104 - she's about eight to ten days from harvest; about 60% of her pistils have turned amber and her trichomes are mostly milky - so today she'll be getting her first flush! 🤘🏻 I watered her with 5L of RO tap water with just a half measure of Bio Bloom and Top Max nutrients, and then pH'd to 6.3. Her next watering, the nutrients will be halved again, and from then on, she'll only receive water.

✌️🎃 Thank you for checking my cultivation. 🌺 They seem to have liked defoliation.

Looking like 3 more weeks until harvest. I’m going to start flushing in about 10-12 days

The growth was delayed 5 days, I think it was due to the lack of ca-mg, but they are already 100% recovered to give some good flowers, give them love 💚

Well she is coming along great. Looks great, very healthy girl. Can't wait to start revealing what is behind the curtain so to speak. Good luck to all the other growers and DON'T FORGET TO UPLOAD A VIDEO EVERY WEEK!!

I pinched the tops off both plants..

Brothers and sisters farmers. My job here is over! Growth was rather difficult because of the heat, but I believe that this strain is the only one who perhaps kept more than all the others, rediscovering to give me the solid nuggets! Greetings to all of you, fantastic Weed friends Happy and abundant harvesters

Excellente souche de Green Barato les colas sont de plus en plus gros et givré, elle a une odeur très remarquable d'agrumes frais.

I've turned the light up to 35000 lux. Up'd the bloom to 1.5ml/l. There still stretching and could do with more room but there doing well 😎

Light @100% Full bloom nutrient

Signs of flower is becoming more noticeable on mental rainbow F1 have noticed more bud site development and more clusters of stigmas on the tops of main side branches as well as other setts of smaller side branches streaching upwards

Una planta que sin realizarle podas, ramifica muy bien, estructura típica de Índica, desde sus inicios en floración, genera mucha resina.

Could probably still go for another week, but as it was loosing so many leafs it was better for me to cut it early. Buds are very dense so very interested to know the final weight

Como ven los tricomas ? Ya están listos para la cosecha? Las dejaré una semana más aproximadamente con riego solo agua

The DIY Screen is filling up very nicely by letting it Veg an extra week to try maximise & even the canopy out. Pruning every other day as the growth changes daily. I will be flipping it into flowering within the next few days. I cannot wait! The mother plant where this original clone came from is in its last few weeks of flowering & from what i can see, this is going to be an awesome, fun grow.

The last day

Week 3 Veg – Transplant Time, System Prep & Roots in Focus Strain: Gelonade Grower: Dogdoctor Type: Feminized Environment: Indoor Tent | LEDs | Dual Controlled Airflow ⸻ 🌱 Overview This week marked a key transition in the Gelonade grow: Transplant into final 11L fabric pots, Environmental tuning, TrolMaster ecosystem preparation, … and most of all: the official selection of the two chosen phenos that will move forward into flower. The girls are thriving. Roots are looking stunning. Leaves are proud and full. The journey deepens, and we’re ready. ⸻ 🌿 Selected Phenotypes After careful observation, Gelonade #1 and Gelonade #2 were chosen as the lead phenos for the full grow journey. Both exhibited: • Strong early structure • Balanced leaf symmetry • Vigor and resilience in early veg • Root density and color that promised excellent transplant response All three looked beautiful, but these two earned the spotlight. ✨ ⸻ Soil Mix & Nutrient Support We prepared a specialized super soil mix enriched with high-quality biological amendments from Aptus Holland to give the girls everything they need for explosive veg. Transplant Mix: • Super soil base • Aptus Mycor-Mix – to inoculate roots with beneficial mycorrhizae for symbiotic nutrient exchange • Aptus Micro-Mix – full-spectrum microbes and bacteria to build a thriving root biome • Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – stabilizes pH, locks in ideal nutrient availability 💧 Feed Mix (per liter of water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml: Cellular armor, nutrient flow, anti-stress shield • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: For foundational frame building • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml: Core NPK and micro blend • Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml: Encourages new root branching and initial canopy formation 🌊 Water Stats: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 • Water Temp: 18.5°C ⸻ Fabric Pots – Why We Use Them The girls were transplanted into 11-liter Amnesia fabric pots. Why fabric? • Air pruning: As roots reach the edges, they hit air, which stops circular binding and encourages lateral branching. • Oxygenation: Roots receive more oxygen through the breathable fabric, boosting metabolism. • Drainage: No soggy bottoms here. Fabric pots keep your medium airy and prevent overwatering issues. These are the final pots — no further transplants will be done. From here, the girls can stretch, root, and build freely. ⸻ Airflow & Filtration A strong root system needs strong air too. This week we’ve been dialing in our environment with dual extractor/intake systems: 🌀 Airflow Setup: • 2x 6-inch extractors: • TrolMaster Aerofan 6” – controlled by the TrolMaster system • Spider Farmer 6” – managed by the GGS controller • 1x 6-inch intake fan with carbon filter 🌫️ Why Carbon Filters (Even Early On)? • Odor control is obvious — but more than that, they filter airborne particles, spores, and contaminants, keeping air pure and clean, even during early veg. • Healthy air = happy leaves = fast growth. ⸻ 🔧 TrolMaster Ecosystem – Automation Incoming While everything is still being hand-watered, we’re preparing to connect the full grow to the TrolMaster system: • Environmental control (humidity, temp, VPD) • Light cycle syncing • Fan response automation • Future irrigation control for specific zones Not all plants will be automated, we’re keeping some fully manual to compare growth responses. That’s the Dogdoctor way: grow, observe, experiment, evolve. ⸻ 📸 Media & Studio Time The girls were looking so stunning, we took them into the studio for a proper photoshoot. These are living models — vibrant, proud, and photogenic. Likely we’ll do another shoot next week, before they get too large to safely move. Expect high-gloss glamour and leaf-candy content. ⸻ 🌿 What to Expect (and Not) After Transplant ✅ Expect: • Slight temporary slowdown (1–2 days max) • New root tips forming within 48–72 hours • Visible growth surge as roots expand into fresh soil • Fuller, wider leaf spacing ❌ Don’t Expect (yet): • Explosive top growth right away — they’ll focus on the roots first • Stretching — we’re still under strong LEDs with great internodal control Let the roots build the temple, and the temple will grow. ⸻ 📊 Environmental Conditions • Room Temp: 27°C • Humidity: 57.4% • CO₂: 632 ppm • Lighting: Future of Grow Black Series 600 LED • Delivering full-spectrum brilliance — tight internodes, deep greens, and radiant health. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Transplant week is always a sacred moment in a grow, a rite of passage from childhood to adolescence. The Gelonade girls are ready. Their roots are strong, their stems are proud, and their leaves are glowing with promise. This week was a blend of precision and love, preparing systems, mixing soil by hand, and honoring the natural rhythm of growth. From here on out, it’s about watching, adjusting, and letting nature lead. Let’s grow something unforgettable.

Vegetative Week 4 – Pineapple Upside Down (Round 2) This fourth week of vegetative growth confirms a pattern that has unfortunately been present since the beginning of this run. The plant is technically growing, but visually she looks unhealthy, weak, and stressed. Overall structure, leaf quality, and general vigor are clearly not where they should be at this stage. Nutrient solution has been kept within a reasonable range, with pH maintained between 5.8 and 6.2 and EC around 1.1–1.2. Despite this, there is no clear positive response from the plant. At this point, it is difficult to identify a single root cause. It could be related to nutrition balance, substrate preparation, environmental parameters, lighting, or simply a combination of multiple small issues accumulating since the start. The humidity dome has now been fully removed. Given the plant’s current condition, maintaining excessive humidity no longer seems beneficial. The approach is now to simplify, stabilize, and observe. This run is clearly delayed, and expectations for a quick recovery are low. That said, the focus remains on learning from these early-stage difficulties and improving future starts, especially substrate preparation and initial environmental control. For now, the plant will continue to be fed consistently, without overreacting or introducing drastic changes. Observation and patience remain the priority. See you next week, and take care.
