So far all is well. Left plant is looking great still. Right plant is still the same as it was, kinda "off." I cut the top off the main cola due to light burn. There's just no way that the plants energy it was directing to it was being used well. I'd rather it go to the rest of the plant because there's just no way that initial top was going to produce anything. It was gnarled. I've also noticed something odd going on with a couple of the buds on the stressed (purple) plant. I posted one of the pics in the pics for this weeks update. Looks kinda like bud rot to me but this is also my first grow so I could be wrong. It looks like it's only affecting the pistils. I may ask a question in the question forum just to be sure. It's odd though because conditions in the tent seem to be too dry maybe for bud rot (averaging in the 50-60% RH range and there is plenty of air circulation in that part of the tent. I'm thinking it could either be the plant negatively reacting to me cutting the main top off the other day or it's just the fact that due to the plant being stressed out for the entire grow that it's lost resistance to things like bud rot, etc.. essentially, I'm not sure at all lol.. Both plants are already showing a good amount of trichome production as the plants have almost switched from stretch flowering phase to pure on flowering/bulking phase. I can't wait to see the buds really start to mature and grow and get stinky. Carbon filter so far is working flawlessly. A week ago I was thinking it wasn't keeping up because when I'd come home from work I could smell pot but it turns out it was just my cannabutter supplies that I left out lol. D'oh. I've also been monitoring conditions in my basement over the past few weeks and have noticed that rain or no rain, the conditions down there are an average 66 degrees and 60-64% RH. With my dehumidifier if the conditions down there remain in that range, I should be able to achieve perfectly optimal drying conditions for when I harvest in 4-6 weeks or so. :) I am having a blast so far and can't wait to harvest and then really apply what I've learned online from youtube, here and reddit combined with my hands on experience from this grow to really fill out the canopy next time and also ensure both plants are the same height for some great yield. I'll probably mainline 2-3 plants for my next grow. I also want to eventually get into building my own soil and amendments but for now I'm just focusing on not learning & applying too many things at once. I just know that at some time I'd like to switch from synthetic nutrients to organic. I'm hooked for life to growing though!

Day 126 - Flushing now. Trichomes are about right. She sure took her time!!! 😂 😎 But looking at her I think she will be worth it!!! The lesson to be learned here for noob growers (of which i was guilty too) is let your plants grow! Don't be too hasty to harvest when trichomes are clear and glassy, she's not ready. There is not enough THC in her trichomes when they're clear. She looks great. Very frosty. There are a lot of leaves to remove though so who knows what the harvest dry weight will be. In the coming days she will be harvested, it's gonna be a big job 😳 Update: Day 129 - harvest has started at last! 😎

Start of week 12! Christina is maturing a little faster than Destini but Destini has some big buds and just seem to be getting bigger. The cool nights have helped keep the temps in the high 70s so the plants should be packing of some sticky terps. Watering every other day and Ill keep feeding her this week but once Destini shows signs of maturity I will be only phed balanced water till harvest. Its just time now! But cant wait to see the final yields. Comments, Suggestions, and Questions are always welcome! Cheers

November 8th. 39 days post flip Plants continue to grow very well. A lot of fattening has occurred in the last week and I expect even more in this following week. Midweek I have some big 6 and recharge. At this point I likely won’t be providing anything but water until the finish line. My lower leaves have not started to fade yet and so I do not want to overdo it with any nutrients. Smells have intensified a lot in the last week. I smells these things when I wake up in the morning when I go to work. Still not a lot of purpling on the purple marmalades. I can see them starting to turn. I’m hoping lower nighttime temperatures will help They need a defoliation now honestly but I am going to be patient and will not defoliate until day 49. I still need to add those two fans. I just ordered them so will add them in a few days when they arrive. Number 1(Cherry Chunks): This one seems to have the fattest colas. Also appears to be the frostiest so far but number 3 seems to be catching up. Not much on the smells on this one just yet. Earthy so far Number 2(Purple Marmalade): This one is my winner so far. The smells and taste of the Trichomes on this thing are absolutely insane. Candy mixed with guava mixed with watermelon. It is also the tallest and most vigorous plant. I’m confident I could fill this whole tent easily with one of these Number 3(Purple Marmalade): Smells of slight lemon mixed with earth and gas. This one seems like it’s going to be a bit gassy. Not as vigorous as 2 but it is frostier as far as I can tell. Clones: Growing well and really starting to take off! God Bless!! November 9th Update: Hey guys i ended up lying in two category’s. The first one was when I said I was waiting until day 49 to defoliate any more. The fan leaves were getting out of hands so I ended up removing half of them now on day 40. This significantly opened up more bud sites to the lights up top and also increased airflow and lowered my humidity a few percentage points. I did this a little early because they are fattening and I’m concerned about navigating around the buds when they are fatter in 9 days. Trying to mitigate the number of Trichomes I smash up. I also ended up giving some molasses. Want to make sure my microbes are happy and figured the potassium boost will help the flowering. As always, thank you guys and god bless!

Am Wochenende haben wir das Netz gespannt. 2/3 der Blütezeit hat sie jetzt ca. hinter sich gebracht. Nach dem ausharren und dem neutralisieren des gekippten Wassers, trat sehr schnell auch ein Mangel sehr vermutlich ,,Schwefel,, am Haupttrieb im obigen Bereich auf. Da wir aber so oder so in der ersten Woche mit erhöhtem Mineralien bedarf (Top- Max) uns befinden, ist dieses nach dieser Situation ein absolut positives Anzeichen, da es bedeutet das sie die Nährstoffe benötigt und somit auch verarbeitet. Auffallend und auch nicht mehr zu ignorieren sind die Thripse. Um diese kümmern sich aber ab Paketeintreffen die neuen Florfliegenlarven. Ansonsten haben wir beim Netzt Spannen noch kleine nachwachsende Stins weggenommen um wirklich alle benötigte Kraft in die Cola´s zu bekommen. Wir Gießen im Moment ca. alle 24 Stunden 4 Liter Nährstofflösung inkl. 0,08 g Co2_ Tablette und 4 ml PK14/15 Wir wünschen allen Growmies viel Erfolg und eine angenehme Woche! Seit dem 16.10.24 wird Sie nur noch 11 Stunden beleuchtet und statt 4 Liter mag sie im moment eher wieder die 3 Liter pro Tag Nährstofflösung.

Started to defoliate and lollipop her slowly, cut back on nitrogen completely and will only be using a tiny amount of Micro and Big Buds nutrients for the remainder of the grow.

So.... as you guys can see above i HAD to go brutal with this lady applying the "SuperCropping" technique, im not gonna lie that i was very worried since i had stress out the plant just a few day before this with heavy lollipopping and defoliation, but i had no other choice, the plant was still going up, no matter what hahah, she is a REAL BEAST, and it does not matter what i do she still want to be hugging the light hahaha, im FKD, but whatever lets see how this goes!! the recover was super fast, amazing how she just did almost not care at all with all the pinching and breaking of the stems and went right back up!! stay tuned

Day 1 – Germination (Water Glass Method) Today I started germinating my Gelato K seeds using the water glass method. The seeds are soaking in room temperature water for 12-24 hours, giving them a good start. Waiting for them to crack open and show the first signs of life! I'll keep you posted on the progress. 🌱💧 Day 2 – Into the Soil (No Germination Yet) Even though the seeds haven't germinated yet in the water, I decided to go ahead and plant them directly into the soil. I’ve placed the seeds about 1 cm deep and added a sprinkle of mycorrhizal fungi to help encourage root development once they sprout. Now, I’m making sure the soil stays moist and hoping the seeds will break through soon. Let's see what happens over the next few days! 🌱🌍 Day 4 – First Leaves Unfolding Exciting progress! 🌱 Yesterday, on Day 3, the seedling finally broke through the soil and made its appearance. Today, on Day 4, the first tiny leaves (cotyledons) have fully formed. It’s a great sign that the plant is establishing itself and is ready to begin photosynthesis. The soil is staying moist, and I’m keeping the light at a good distance to encourage steady growth. Looking forward to seeing those first true leaves pop up in the coming days!

12-5 First week of flower, stretch is on 💪 Just plain water 6.2 today. She did not like the topping and strip too well. It happens. I knew I was taking the chance. She still gonna go and do her thang, just maybe not as well? Heres for making the most of it 😁 My wife said I made a autoflower wreath 🤣 12-7 Just chillin today. 12-8 Water day. 2.5l full water 💪. Top dressed. 1/4 cup poo and 2 tbs buildaflower 1 tbs craftblend. Went light on it. May hurt me in the long run, might not. She got cal/mag, drops of balance, yucca, kelp, recharge and em1. It was a lot, but should be good for a minute. Removed leafs that were blocking. Went in a solo tent. Rh super low, but should be ok. 12-11 Not quite ready for water. Bent a couple bunched nodes

All in all this grow was super easy. I couldve done some things to make it better but she pretty much did all the work. This strain would be perfect for a SOG style grow because it produces mostly a singular main cola nug that's pretty huge and then the bottom nugs themselves are also decently chunky. 4/22 chopped the lower half the plant. Wet it weighs 50grams. Still have the main cola in a dark room for another day or so before im gonna chop. 4/26 bottom half of plant dried in 4 days. 5/2 top cola dried in 5 days. Total weight is less than 20 grams at 19.4 5/12. Ten days of cure and shes looking even better. Spongey thick nugs. Dark red almost brown Pistils with pyramid shaped nugs. I also wanted to not how fast and easy this grow actually was. She has so much amber I probably couldve chopped her 2 weeks previous. 3 weeks veg and 5 weeks flowering and some would chop. Review. Growing 9/10 for ease of growth Super fast and simple. You can Fuck up and get fat buds lol High: 9/10 super stoney. No paranoia Yield:8/10 plant a super short. Like less than a foot. Can probably yield around a zip roughly Bag appeal: 7/10after cure buds look good. Before harvest buds look fantastic as well

So this grow came to a finshed but I had a. Few issues that’s held me up from finishing up the diary, but in due time I will reupload it all in order soon. But over all I will also update with a final weigh in of each strain produced so stay tuned 🤙🏻🔥

Week 7 began! She’s gaining in bud size and smalls already crazy good. Until now I’m really happy with the genetic. She’s doing great and never had the feeling that she couldn’t take the stress. I mean the pod is only 5liters(1.3gallons) large and the conditions are not the best. Great genetic so far.
