Just watering and waiting...🤤 How many days do you think?? Please lmk

start the second week of flowering ... continue to gain weight visibly, the branches becoming thicker and begin to glimpse the first glasses ..... let's go

🌱✨ 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.

Ended up flushing Mumma for about 10 days - got her ppm down real low. Night before harvest I set the timer so the light would not come back on in the morning before I harvested (I've seen people who swear by this and other who say it doesn't do anything but figured it couldn't hurt). At this point the other plants are pretty disappointing compared to Mumma so they aren't getting as much "love" lol.

⭐ Skywalker OG — Legends of the 12/12 Galaxy Welcome to the beginning of our Skywalker OG journey — a Zamnesia legend stepping into the 12/12 seed run with gravity, myth, and a touch of galactic force. ⸻ 🌼 Germination Summary Seed Source — Zamnesia Seeds Seed Count for This Report 3 seedlings selected for documentation (More were germinated; only the standout ones join the Galactic Journals.) ⸻ Starting Method (Observational Log) All seeds began in the CannaKan germination system for clean, consistent monitoring. Around the 36-hour mark, early signs of root development appeared — matching the general rhythm of the other feminized seeds in this run. Seedlings were then transitioned into: • Mixed soils across the tent (PRO-MIX and/or Plagron Bio Light Mix depending on placement) • Some under individual humidity domes • All inside the unified 8×8 controlled environment ⸻ Emergence Within 2–3 days, Skywalker OG seedlings rose above the medium, showing strong posture and a steady, confident beginning — almost as if they felt the call of the cosmos themselves. Their timing was in sync with the rest of the feminized lineup. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Context (Shared Tent Conditions) These conditions apply to the entire observational experiment: • Relative Humidity: approx. 60–65% • Day Temperature: ~26–28°C • Night Temperature: ~20–21°C • Humidifier: active continuously • Occasional misting: supporting moisture levels • Heater: stabilizing warmth during night cycles • Lighting: • Future of Grow — Air Grow Pro III HyperRED • Lumiflora UE150 under-canopy LEDs (to be introduced later) • Controllers: TrollMaster (previous collaboration) • Medium: varied across the tent based on placement • Tent: fully sanitized prior to the start All three Skywalker OG seedlings exist under identical observational conditions. ⸻ 🌈 Educational Notes for This Genetic Skywalker OG is a fan-favorite genetic, known for its bold structure, cosmic vibe, and iconic lineage. This makes it an exciting subject for a documented observational run. In this diary, we will be watching for: • Subtle differences between the three selected seedlings • How Skywalker OG expresses itself under a uniform 12/12-from-seed experiment • Visual posture, expression, and natural personality as it evolves No forecasts. No expectations. Just curiosity — mapped across the 12/12 Cosmos. ⸻ 🙏 Acknowledgments A big thank-you to: • Future of Grow — lighting innovation guiding this galactic path • Plagron — supportive substrates and organic mixes • Zamnesia Seeds — powering this chapter of the journey • Lumiflora — under-canopy LED contributions • TrollMaster — environmental controllers from past partnership • GrowDiaries — hosting the full digital map of the expedition And of course, gratitude to: • OG supporters • New explorers • Quiet watchers • Curious adventurers • Even the critics — every galaxy needs contrast This journey is richer because of all of you. ⸻ 🧡 Closing Note for the Report This first entry marks our official launch into Skywalker OG — Legends of the 12/12 Galaxy. Three seedlings now float into the experimental cosmos, ready to reveal their character as the run unfolds. More updates, photos, and educational notes coming soon.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Wish the bird the leaf ratio was a little better which it wasn’t too bad but other than that I don’t have any complaints and Would recommend it

09/06/2018 She has grow a little😀 bit,going to 1/2 strength nutes in res change today. Can't believe how thick her stem is! Had slight leaf tip burn from ferts but not enough to be concerned about. Started week with 9 liters in DWC bucket. Will top as needed with plain water. . Note: remember rinse hydroton! 09/10/2018 Getting nice growth this week,a little more leaf tip burn,but not excessive amount,also I topped her today I believe that I will go to 3/4strength next change and full strength for flowering.which is when I bring red spectrum up to 100%.

Plants are happy and coming up really nice. They were defoliated and given a good dose of S.W.A. Organic Compost Tea. See you soon for another update. 😁

I have tasted some even though it is a little early for it to be fully cured. The smoke is very smooth, absolutely no throat hit but within seconds I get a great feeling at the top of my head and melts down to the rest of my body. Grandpa Larry should not operate machinery! Currently don’t have a scale... epic fail, hopefully I will update this with an approximation of yield.

So here's my first Diary. I'm a new grower just trying to find out what works best for me.

Wow what a week I have seen 3 of my girls reach 40 inches high at the highest point they are drinking lots but I have finally got the Zues pro upto 100% and the ladies feel like they are visiting the tropics I am using a radair 250 inline extractor it's huge but it's doing its job beautifully keeping the humidity down at 42% and it's only running at 30% I also have a black orchid 5in inline mixed flo bringing air in from outside this is alot smaller than my extraction system but I have found a happy medium between the two and they are keeping my environment perfect for my ladies I introduced pk14/15 a week ago and the plants seem to be happy I have been giving my ladies recommended does of nutrients but I have been staggering that over 2 days as it's my first coco grow and they have responded well to that I would just rather add more if needed rather than giving all and dealing with any nutrient issues once they suffering. Hopefully they will continue to grow and get some fat buds now Stay blessed thanks for taking the time to read my diary 💚🌱💚🌱💚🌱💚🌱

With these girls, I harvested 146 grams dry from 2 plants. What a fun journey it has been! The buds smell incredibly strong and are sticky as superglue. Here's to a fantastic harvest and more green adventures ahead! 🌿🎉

My gas tax plant is looking absolutely incredible right now. It's got these massive buds that are super dense and have this awesome dark color to the leaves. I'm so excited to see how it turns out when it's finally ready to be harvested. I've been checking the height, the thickness of the stem, and the density of the buds to get an idea of how much longer I have to wait. I think I might start flushing it soon. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Moin moin, Die Blüte schreitet voran und viel Arbeit gab es nicht. Die Lemon Zkittle ist riecht top, ist aber winzig und die buds entwickeln sich auch nicht so gut wie erwartet. Die Apples and Bananas hat einen starken Geruch entwickelt den ich aber schwer zu beschrieben finde, als ersten wirkt der Geruch skunkig wird aber schnell von einer süßen leicht erdigen Aroma abgelöst.

Nothing much to report, some tight buds are starting to form Week 4 day 4, the buds are definitely starting to take shape, and the trichomes are forming on the sugar leaves, pistils are still mostly light colored. I cant wait to watch these buds chunk up over the next few weeks.

Hola jardineros Ya queda muy poco para poder cortar a las preciosas plantas Que ganas de catarlas Ya está la limpieza de raíces lista y solo queda esperar una semanita más

So far so good. Fattening up nicely, growth has been wicked up till this point. Only vegged her for 27 days. Pretty impressive growth. Hopefully she will be ready end of next week. Dropped the feeding back slightly, will be starting the flush soon. Stay tuned.

Vamos familia, actualizamos la tercera semana de crecimiento de estas Granny’s Home de Seedstockers, salieron las 2 de 3, 66% ratio éxito. Aplicamos varios productos de Agrobeta, que son increíbles para aportar una buena alimentación a las plantas. Temperatura y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos dentro de la etapa de crecimiento. La tierra utilizada es al mix top crop, por cambiar. De 2 ejemplares me quede con los 2 para completar el indoor y trasplanté directamente a macetas de 7 litros, se ven bien sanas las plantas, tienen un buen color y progresan a muy buen ritmo por el momento. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Start of week 3 is going very well. Plants look super healthy and have responded well the some LST. Watering every other day and feeding with FoxFarm Big Bloom twice a week.
