Day 60....I've set them free from LST and I'm gonna give them plain water tomorrow..can't wait this last 2 weeks to go. As it is my first grow, i am already happy by getting closer and closer to harvest...can't really wait for the cure and the final results.

Week 7 Although the Gelato is the smallest of the bunch it's definitely the fastest flowering. Also I'm trying out a little experiment, if the results are positive I might share more about it in the future.. I've also added an extra Biotab in the OGK and NQ. My theory is that you need more Biotabs than adviced if you train and defoliate your plant a lot. Because you produce more plant material and with defoliation you technically are taking away nutrients of the plant. I've also did this to the Spliff Strawberry (other diary) and it's looking much more green since.

She is looking great. I would guess that the harvest is in ~10days D65: 4l D67: 4l D69: 4l

Using Ripen for a week now, 3 more days or so and then flush for 3 days Then harvest will be at day 56

Just a short update this week. Again, everything is going very well. The smell is developing, as is trichome production 😎 Hopefully not too long left now! Had to UP the Ph level this week, turns out Shogun Silicon is great for raising it 👌

An early update, due to rain in the forecast for tomorrow and the next day. Girls have formed button size buds and the nodes are stacking close. Very strong healthy girls here. Tallest lady just under 11 foot. My favourite time of year is upon us now. Cooler weather, just hoping on little rain for the next 6 weeks... Added a little video so more of their size is shown, better than a pic

Pure ice cream clone 1 has roots and started growing finally. She has some deformities in new vegging leaves. I imagine it is nutrition related. She kinda lst to herself when she fell over several days ago. She was showing signs of growth so I didn't want to disturb her, and mess it up. Everything is looking good for this clone now. I am not sure how long I want to veg her, and her sister if she pulls through. Nothing else to report at this time.

Ok

Blue Gelato - Royal Queen Seeds After 124 days of growth and 76 days of flowering, it's finally time to harvest our incredible Blue Gelato from Royal Queen Seeds! The buds are absolutely massive, coated in resin, and the aroma is unbelievably strong—intensely potent, yet so addictive in its richness. It’s like nothing we’ve experienced before. We are completely blown away by this strain! We didn’t weigh the buds while they’re still wet, but once they dry, we’ll share the final weight. Judging by the size of these beauties, we’re expecting a generous harvest. A huge thank you to Xpert Nutrients for your ongoing support, top-notch service, and, most importantly, the incredible fertilizers that have helped us grow such powerful plants year after year. Your products are truly the secret behind these massive, potent results. We love Xpert Nutrients! We also want to give special thanks to Royal Queen Seeds for providing such fantastic genetics. Blue Gelato has exceeded all our expectations in terms of both growth and quality. And yes, we’ve already had the pleasure of sampling her, and let me tell you—this is premium-grade cannabis! The smoke is incredibly potent, much stronger than expected, and hits hard, leaving a long-lasting effect. It’s not just strong—it’s very strong, and the intensity keeps you floating for quite a while. It’s so powerful that you may find yourself wondering when the high will start to ease up. This is no joke—Blue Gelato is as dangerous as it is amazing, and it’s not one to be taken lightly. Thank you once again to Xpert Nutrients and Royal Queen Seeds for this phenomenal experience. We couldn’t be happier with the results and look forward to growing more of your amazing products!

I am loving this plant!! Her buds are deep deep purple and super dense and covered in trichs!!! The smell is awesome....sweet and fruity with gasseyness, pretty sure that's not a word. This is going to be a great grow!! Thank you @

She stinks! 😍 Budding up real nice. Watered her with only bloom nutes now. Still the same ol' same ol' 6L 6PH, 5ml/L bloom, will introduce my last drops of green sensation probably next week 😌 Other than that, shes just doing her thing. a bit of defoliation along the way, thats about it. 👽

Turing into some fire it’s a small compact plant but has big buds and there are covered in tricombs

On day 56 the girls were 70/30 cloudy to amber trichomes (my preference) they were ready for harvest. I took clones from pheno 3 and pheno 5. I will be monster cropping these clones to preserve their genetics. the girls went into 48 hours of darkness right after. On day 58 the girls were chopped. The tent was cleaned top to bottom and we started our drying process. We will be shooting for 60-65 percent RH with a temp of 60 degrees. I expect this dry to go 10-14 days. I will update a final dry weight, pics, and smoke test in a few weeks after the cure. I’ll also be posting my last seed to harvest episode of this series on my YouTube channel that can be found in my profile link or “probation2propagation” on YouTube. Stay tuned.

All good in the neighborhood 2 of 3 moved to the brand NEW FRIDGEGROW 2.0 system. the orange one lost... ;) just after a few days in the new home they grew like mad

7/26 Rained last night and looks like it will rain today as well. The periods we've been having with rain then sun then rain has really exploded growth. I have tops over my fence already. You can see all the dead leaves I pulled. Plants look healthy but I always worry when I lose leaves like this. Luckily I can look back on my old diary and the paper one before for some peace of mind. I've decided to label this week as flower even though we still have about 14 and a half hours of daylight but we're losing light every week. My plants get shade in the evening. My tarps provide a little shade as well. Everything is stretching incredibly that's why I labeled flower. You can see preflowers starting to form. I hope that's why I lost so many leaves (starting preflower). I mean the plants are healthy. I'll check pH with a soil meter tonight and make sure things are good. I would think with the rain it would lower my pH if anything. Definitely using dry amendments next year and dropping the liquid nutes. Soon I'll start adding flower nutes at low doses and see how the girls respond. Still haven't been able to spray BT for the pillars and my IPM. Hopefully tonight it won't rain and I can spray. 7/27 watered today. Still seeing some leaves yellowing and dropping. I left my pH meter so I'll have to check to see if that's the problem. I've been researching and I may need to adjust my nutrient dosage and add more P. I still haven't sprayed. I found a shit ton of earwigs under the wood outside I use to hold down my tarp. I thought they were predators but maybe not. I'll have to research them. I may have to use captain Jack's instead of BT and hope it combats the earwigs. 7/28 Watered as the soil was dry. Killed some earwigs and tied up a branch that is to close to the fence. I researched earwigs and they aren't beneficial but I've noticed that I no longer have ANY aphids that I could see. I'll check lower leaves with my scope as I haven't checked in a while. My pH meter won't work in ANY of my grow bags. It seems like the bags are just a bunch of roots. When I stuck the meter in a pile of last year's soil (next to the grow) it worked fine and read at 6.6. I don't get why it won't work with the grow bags. I'll have to research and see if I can use test strips or something. Still noticing some random damage here and there but it's time to spray and I just haven't done it. Plants are in that transition stage. All the big clones are at about the same stage. I really hope losing the leaves is normal. Looking at my father's tomato plants I noticed the same thing. I looked at other foliage and trees and I'm seeing similar signs of senscence. 7/29 Fed two gallons to the garden this morning. I was able to get one reading off my pH meter and it read 7.3. Still losing leaves but plants are stretching like crazy. Even the little 5 gallon ones I have been neglecting are forming there "asparagus tops" and starting to transition energy. I think I'll start adding bloom nutes next feed or so. I need to treat the PM. I've been slacking on my IPM. Also noticed some weird looking damage on a bud site. I hope it's not those earwigs. I usually have aphids but this year it seems the lady bugs and my treatments kept them at bay. I'm wondering if the ear wigs that I saw were eating other bugs and ran out and started munching on leaves. Hope not. I plan to make a ear wig trap and I need to research more. Planning on spraying LCPT tonight and cleaning up the cage but we'll see how that goes. Very little wind so I took the tarps down for now. I'll update as I get things done. UPDATE: I inspected tops and bud sites for damage. Random damage mostly on seedlings outside the cage. It's hot today and the mis-labeled indica (it's ONE of the strains listed other than DJSBB AND DREAMCATCHER) in the 50 gallon pot seemed a bit droopy. Granted all those strains are highly indica dominant and it could just be the pheno. I gave them a little water just to make sure. It should hold them over till the rain. I took a small plastic container and made an earwig trap with soy sauce and olive oil. Let's see what I catch. I plan to spray LCPT tonight. 7/30 Rained all night so I couldn't spray like I wanted too. Rain and 49 degrees at 8. My earwig trap caught zero earwigs but I killed a few around it. Noticed damage on a bud site that I'm pretty sure was from ear wigs. My bags are on the ground and I allowed the roots to grow through into the ground so I am hesitant to use something like borax to kill them. I'll have to give this a little more thought. Tarps are still down I'll monitor and update. I was able to get two pH readings but they were the five gallon plants 7.2 and 7.3. I'd really like to lower the pH. My water going in is always good and I even measured the pH of the rain so I hope I'm good. May need to check run off for accuracy. 7/31 Didn't water as it poured last night. Wind is high so tarps went back up. Got a read of 7.3 on basically all plants. I don't get it. I'll have to lower what I'm putting in. I also need to figure out the earwig situation and get off my ass and MAKE time to prune the insides and treat the PM. I did this shit last year when I had COVID so I can do it with a stomach flu. UPDATE: I finally got around to applying the lost coast plant therapy. Two hours later and I'm pretty sure I applied it properly. I took some immediate pictures. I also watered a little before treatment. Found and killed two japanese beetles (which I think are the culprits behind the unknown damage). Fucker was on the top of a starting cola way taller than me. I never would've seen him if I didn't treat. I'm going to need to use a ladder and inspect tops a little more closely. On another not WE ARE IN FLOWER!! No question about it. The "spears" are starting to thicken and beginning to start flowers. It was so much more apparent this afternoon. Probably because I was pruning the interior and defoliating as well as getting close to spray. I'm beyond psyched and im going to start reduced dosages of tiger bloom. I'm also going to try to pH my water lower and see if that doesn't make a difference. 8/1 Soil was wet so I didn't water. LCPT did great at eating up that PM. The plant in the tub in the back seems like it may have a virus or something. It just seems weak. It reveged as well. I'll keep an eye on it. If it continues with a weak appearance i'll get a second opinion and if it truly is a virus i'll trash it. I'm not going to risk the rest of my plants. I'm experimenting with the plant. I have the branches tired down at 90 degree angles. I'm thinking about adding a dry amendment and top dressing. I have work to do next week. Weather has been awesome. Sunny. It was 49 this morning though. 75 at noon.

🙊

Just started flower, put the light a bit higher cause she was quite bushy and wanted her to stretch a little more Fed her with the veg nutes one last time She's looking absolutely ready Defoliated and LST'ed again, should have done this in veg but she hadnt stretched enough yet

This is the first run. Much like a try out. Like or comment.. Thank you....

Day 29 thinking a few cuttings in a week, then start flower Day 30 started a bit of lst Day 31 well a decent veg time decided against cuttings as iv got some sativas to do next I’ll put in flower today😊 Day 32 well eventually put in flower with a little bit of defoliation and lst 😀 Day 33 - 3 days into flower
