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.

The SWAMPMONSTER ran out of juice so no SMART PROTEINS for these this week, but holly smokes looks like that swamp thing potion does lasting work on the plants : they're just popping the f off ! faster than any auto i've ever grown, and i'm grow diaries native so you can see all my other grows ever lol anyway, as you can see these have started developing side shoots and it's week 3 . Never seen a plant like this in my life, well dont be surprised it's my first photo , so yeah, just glad a found a way around that longish veg for a photo ! these are 3 weeks in, maybe they've got a couple more weeks of veg in them tops , some will stay vegged for the rotation, any questions welcome ! in case you were wondering it's just plain water until i get more juice maybe some more beneficials but that's just about it that's planned ! 🚀

This week I saw a pretty large gain in vegetation. At the moment I am unable to train the branches outward because I am out of space indoors, we are just under a month out from putting them outside for good; they have grown about 8.5 inches in height. I top dressed the medium with a 70/30 mix of Gaia greens all purpose 4-4-4 and power bloom 2-8-4 and continue to water with ancient earth every watering. It doesn’t seem to be in need of any cal mag so I have left it out of the watering schedule this week. I will continue time the light down every ten days by half hour to match the 16 hour day it will be when I bring them outside. So far I am very impressed by these ladies

Diese Woche sind die zwei Damen in ein neues Zuhause umgezogen. Da die anderen Damen leider keine Automatic's sind und ab Montag in die Blüte gehen, habe ich mich entschlossen aufgrund der Lichtverhältnisse ihnen ein neues Zuhause in einem 1,20m x 1,20m x 2,00m Growzelt zu spendieren 😀 mehr folgt...

Hello growmies!! Well I ended up with just one girl in the tent and two little seedlings I'm growing 12/12 from seed (I'm just curious about it, not expecting anything too impresive) this week I actually started using my scrog net to keep the taller stems from going up and making them stay at canopy level, right now ppfd is about 1100 in most parts of the canopy...

The first week of vegetation is complete, and the plant is off to an okay start! After spending 5 days in the seedling station, I transplanted it into a 15L fabric pot, which will be its final home since it’s an autoflower.🌱 Initially, things weren’t perfect—the first set of leaves turned yellow, likely because I forgot to add coco to the area where I planted it.😅 However, the plant recovered quickly and is now bouncing back nicely! One hiccup was the time-lapse footage—it’s a bit shaky because the fan was directed at the plant, causing some wobble. Overall, I’m optimistic about the plant’s progress and looking forward to seeing how it develops in the coming weeks.🌱 (the plant in the little pot is my first phenotype Runtz muffin from barneys farm that i got gifted and i am getting the setup right now)

Good growth, Blueberry powering through cal mag issue. Skywalker will be first to harvest for sure. Insane amount of frost on that plant. Glueberry og continues to require fairly frequent defoliations to open up canopy. Blueberry starting to get some subtle berry coming through.

Growing report: The growth through veg stage was amazing couldn’t fault the plant or the feed BUT then flower stage is where these genetics goes all wrong! So two weeks into flower I see one plant had Hermied, so gave this one the axe, and then spoke to acouple of other growers that have the same strain Had the same problem So it’s now named (hermie pie) then in week 5 all plants Hermied. I managed to keep the seeds at bay mostly and slow down the process of them seeding until harvest on week 7/8 I got signs of bud rot but dealt with that quick enough it didn’t damage the rest of the the harvest. Once harvested they got a light trimming then hung up for 5/6days at temperatures 20/28 and humidity 45/60. Used Trimbag for the rest of the trimming process, got 6oz off 3plants 😬 curing for 2weeks in one ounce Jars 75% full. Bud report: Smell; is sweet and tangy Taste; sweet spicy taste Density of buds out of 10; 8. Some seeds found in buds😞 Thank you all for watching another stressful but fun and learning harvest.

Casey's Rollex OG grew well. She finished in 7 weeks of flowering. Which was super fast. I fid run a little longer as it never looked ripe then, but started fox tailing as well. So it was a confusing finish the bud has a good citrus and earthy aroma. Really frosty. I have a feeling this will be a strong couch lock experience once done. Thanks again Spider Farmer, and DutchFem Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇.

🌸 Week 4 Flower – RollerCoaster Haze 🌸 The girls are now deep into flower, and they are nothing short of stunning. Both phenos are stretching tall, stacking sites beautifully, and building those early bud formations that promise something special. White hairs are everywhere, and the canopy is vibrant, full of life, and thriving. This week I cleaned the lowers again, focusing energy on the tops. The roots are still showing off their strength, breaking through the soil and proving how powerful this foundation is. You can really see how the balance of soil and feed is driving such healthy growth. 💧 Feeding Recipe (Aptus + Plagron) This week, the nutrition is a beautiful synergy between Aptus and Plagron lines, all dialed in at 1ml/L: • Aptus Regulator • CalMag Boost • Aptus All-in-One Liquid (light, occasional, as soil still has pellets) • Plagron Green Sensation • Plagron Sugar Royal • Plagron Power Buds Solution runs around pH 6.0–6.1, with EC balanced to keep the soil’s natural charge in mind. Roots, stalks, and leaves are showing us this recipe is working wonders. Environment • Soil Temp: ~24°C • Room Temp: ~29°C • Humidity: ~67% • VPD: ~1.37 kPa Slightly warm, but managed with airflow and care — and the plants are clearly thriving under these conditions. 🌱 Reflection This week is a reminder of the beauty of balance. By combining nutrition strategies, experimenting, and adapting, the garden rewards us with strength and health. RollerCoaster Haze is branching massively, with countless bud sites forming — a true example of how much potential can come from testing, learning, and trusting the process. The journey is as much about mistakes and improvisation as it is about success. And right now, these girls are teaching us that with a strong foundation, nature does the rest. ✨ The ride continues — RollerCoaster Haze Week 4 Flower is in full bloom! 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.
