35 days!!! When I returned from vacation, I found her a little tired:) as far as I know, the weather wasn't very good, but the last 3 days we've had really sunny weather, so even though the girl lives on the north side of the house, she's still maturing there:) she looks really good :) good luck to everyone.

So I did a partial harvest of 16 of the main colas on day 65 of 12/12 and I am very happy with the result. I have the left the lower buds to ripen for another week. The terps are amazing and the buds are twinkling with trichomes. I will upload the cured weights and pics in 2 weeks. Happy growing✌️🏼

It is a vigorous plant with very uniform branching, high resinous and high yield, if you grow from seed there are a few different phenos that I got, equally as good

11/3 - Today was the first day of week 5 and also the first day I could see a visibly measurable decrease in her water level between check-ins (~12 hours apart). As a result of her drinking so much water in such a short time, the ppms shot up to almost 800. I used straight tap (7.5 pH, 170ppm) to adjust since her pH was also measuring 5.3. I adjusted her with this method until she registered 5.6pH and 670ppm (1.0ec + tap, 500ppm of nutrients). I would prefer for her pH to be a bit higher (5.8, ideally), but I will settle with this for now since the water is back to just touching the basket. Over the last couple days I've been adjusting her LST to help her bush up as much as possible. I can already see the heavy Sativa influence in her compared to her sister in the tent. I can't wait to see what she will throw at me. 11/4 - I wasn't even planning on doing an update today, but I want to note a few changes. Her root bundle is over a foot long and getting more wound up every day. I removed her LST ties in order to take advantage of the ScrOG screen apparatus (see notes below). After lights came back on, she measured 650ppm and had another notable drop in water level. Currently, I am preparing another nutrient solution that closely matches what she is feeding on now. I will be upgrading her to a 5 gallon bucket. I will be aiming for 1ec of nutrients/additives (500ppm + Tap on my meter, Hanna Primo .5 conversion). Tap measured 180ppm, so target ppm would be 680. Later that same day... So I finished upgrading her to a 5 gallon bucket before I actually got done writing the update. Added one photo showing new 5 gallon setup. Solo ScrOG test mk1 - In an attempt to do a ScrOG, but maintain control over each bucket, while still having relatively easy access to each reservoir, I decided to throw together this little contraption. I removed the lowest complete segment of a tomato cage, leaving a short "tail" beyond the lower ring to act as a peg to insert into corresponding holes in the lid. The lower ring is 10" in diameter and the upper is approximately 12" in diameter. Each ring is 11" apart. I would prefer to have a shorter segment, but I haven't worked out exactly how to do this yet. I would prefer to set the screen height at around 6" above the bucket instead of 11". This will have to suffice for the time being while I let my latent conscious work out a solution or one is provided by the community. Above each cage will sit a coated wire fence with grids measuring ~2"x3", as shown in the above picture. 11/5 - Uploaded short video showing Solo ScrOG Apparatus in place. Screen height currently set to 6". Thanks for stopping by my garden, and, as always, Happy Growing!

At day 77 from seed, 31 days since the switch to 12-12, I hope she is done stretching because my light is as high as I can make it and as close as I want the plant. This girl is one stretchy beast. She is starting to smell a little more but still not strongly. I'm excited to watch her fill out. I will do very little defoliation from here on. She looks happy to me so far even though it looks like she has filled my tent out.

Week 4/10 - 11/10 The plant dried up very nicely and no more eggs. She was moved back to her grow place and my gf topped her on Monday. Due to the excessive nitrogen she is getting only additives 6/10 she got only additives today. 7/10 steady growth is happy growth.. 9, 10 she was fed amazing growth 11/11 closing the week with a video of the progress. Catch up next week!

So, eventful week. Prior to putting my seeds into my system, my light and rdwc system was left on as I was dialling in the growing environment before placing the seeds as a final home. My only issue was I had a light leak BEFORE putting the foil top covers on the clay pebbles. Long story short, I got algae which ended up turning to root rot. I spotted it very swiftly and did a res change adding beneficial bacteria to the system along with the base products of remo nutrients. A few days later new growth and recovery is taking place. Day 16- Fully back on track, new roots shooting out into the water and the growth rate has picked up as it should. Foliar feeding twice a day for a little boost until the root system establishes a bit more. Huge changes in just a day. Can't wait to see what a week's growth looks like. Really loving the sunset/sunrise feature on the trolmaster, something I got to experience watching recently! Watching by closely to make sure everything stays in track. Stay tuned for the next one 😉

1/24 Seeing balls I think :( - Welp - Confirmed they are balls, #2 has them also, not sure if LST caused to much stress or what. To much pride to just kill them all. I will continue this grow concealed in the 3x3. Honestly thought I was doing everything right. Going to leave them together, I got a auto water system to help keep tent closed more often. Doing this for the experience, will deep clean tent and all equipment after. I guess my goal now is to just finish her up, I'm 4 weeks through, going to try to use this bud for edibles, etc. This is for the people who had a hermie, wanted to continue growing it, but couldn't due to there conditions. Here ya go, this will be a fun run. If this isn't a good idea let me know LOL. 1/25 - (early morning) after a little researching and thinking, I think I'll just kill the hermies out. #2 had the same sacks. Going to keep a close eye on #3,#4, but so far they haven't sexed yet, ended up chopping #1, #2 for the better. Done buying cheap seeds, I have went through recommendations to find the best genetics and a more reputable breeder, very soon will start diary on that which I am very pumped for. With 2 of these out now, Planning on putting another strain in with them. I got a little unmotivated experiencing this, but figured rather fix it now then set my self back another 4 weeks. Hopefully we still have luck with #3, #4 will hope for the best! 1/30 - Since chopping #1, and #2 due to them becoming hermie, I definitely lost some motivation on this run. I still have been watering and adjusting canopy with trellis. They have definitely blown up since 1/25, and are giving me much more motivation moving forward. I gave them recharge today. I have started slight LST again but just bending the top cola so it won't grow higher then other colas. I have started another run with Brother Mendel Genetics, and will be starting another grow diary series on them. Look out for it. I do apologize for the late updates, I hope you enjoy the updated documentation. Closing this week out, Definitely had a roller coaster typa week but things are starting to look up. 👉Check out My Instagram for daily updates @Seed2Weed_YT👈 Will Follow Back, Let's Grow Together 💪

Day 92. Few more days for last Alaskan Diesel , amazing strain ! While chopping first two I ripped small bud and yesterday I tried it - piney, eucalyptus sweet diesel flavour ! Loved it ! Green Cracks getting frosty and calaxies start to form and fattening up ! So I think 2-3 weeks from now. Northern Lights are way behind, but smallest plant becomes a frosty tower ! Day 93. Last Alaskan Diesel is down. All info on strain harvest week . Rest keep going, think two weeks is max for Green Cracks. Happy Growing !!!

🌱✨ 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.

I switched to new fertilizer, I used a little too much, but it's not a problem, I gave around 900 ppm to each plant, but I don't mind, flawless finish is available.

wow! this girl also took the fish shit i gave her last week and turned it into huge buds! I am going to do this every year from now onwards. No visible PWM either, just like the others. Will go out to the pot patch mid week after this leftover weather from hurricane Fiona clears to see how they fared in the high humidity and low temps.

2/1/2024- Pre-Germination Activities Day 1 I have 21 weeks until final photo is do.. I took 3 seeds out of cold storage and will let them get to room temp for the next 48 hours before I go with Glass of water for germination. I have 3 beans because I will start from the very beginning helping ensure I present the best Pheno. This is going to be a fun one.. I am a few days away from being able to clear my tent out for this run.. I have a breeding run in right now and the Seeds are a few days away from being mature enough for me to take down the girls. Once I get them down I will need to get my tent cleaned up and turned over right away. This is going to be close, I will have to time them to the water and into the tray at the right time.. because I will need to get lighting on them right away.. I have my 2X2 and my light ready incase I need to hold them in the cloning machine if the others are not done in the next few days.. Glad I have options that can stretch me out for a week or 2 to give me a little more time. 2/2/2024- Pre-Germination Activities Day 2 I checked on my breeding run to see how close the seeds are and if the tent is ready for me to clear and clean but alas I am still going to need a few days. I setup the emergency 2X2 and that should give me 2-3 weeks. The plan is to still wait one more day to allow the beans to warm up to room temp and then drop them in Water sometime tomorrow. Form my Emergency 2X2 I have the following: 4" inline fan and carbon filter Fan VS-2000 light 2/3/2024- Germination Activities Day 0 - Dropped the Beans in.. Today is 0 day.. Go.. Go .. Go.. 2/4/2024- Germination Activities Day 0-1 - Checked in on them this morning and no tap roots yet.. covered them back up and back in to the closet they went. I setup the Root Riots and the Seed tray for them. I Ensured my water that I was soaking the root riots in was PHed to 5.8 and I used RO water. Afternoon Update: Checked on my Breeders and they are done. I started to harvest them, I took down the one I had reversed with STS and I took down the Black African Magic- All but one bud, I wanted to get some pics of that one today. I was only able to get 2lbs into the Cannatrol because I had to be very careful to keep the bud from the plant that was treated with the STS separated from the other seeded bud that was pollenated from the plant I reversed. Cannatrol could have held an additional 2oz of wet but not today. Ideally I need 1 more Cannatrol so I can take an entire Tent, but will figure that out. I put an additional 1.5lbs into the freezer to wait it's turn into the Cannatrol, I would have left it on the plant and taken it in 4 days when the dry cycle gets done but wasn't sure how much 2.2 lbs was equivalent to chopped and wet trimmed. 2/5/2024- Germination Activities Day 0-2 - Checked in on them this morning and 2 of them have very small tap roots out.. one still doesn't going to give them some more time. I will check in on them this evening and see if they are more open if so I will transfer the ones that are ready to their medium and seed tray. 2/6/2024- Planting Day TRUE Germination Day 0- Checked in on them this morning and all 3 of them have tap roots out. I broke the bottom of the tap root for #1 which was the biggest.. pretty sad.. I hope she survives.. I tried to be careful it just snapped off when I was trying to get it in the root riot right. Other than that all three are now in their in-between home in the 2X2 while if finish clearing and cleaning out their forever homes. 2/7/2024- Germination Day 1- Checked in on them and no surprise no sprouts yet. Sprayed the dome to moist it and light spray to the tops of the Root Riots. 2/8/2024- Germination Day 2- #3 is popped and it looks like #2 will be popped by this evening.. I got my second Cannatrol today so now I can take down the rest of the tent and get it into the dry/cure. 2/9/2024- Germination Day 3- #2 is popped as well.. so I have #2 and #3 up and still waiting to see on #1 but that might be a loss since I accidently broke off some of the Tap root when transplanting. 2/10/2024- Germination Day 4- #1 has Popped... We have ignition on all 3.. YAY!! I finished clean up and install of RDWC system, this time was unique the back left buckets 3 inch pipe wasn't seated correctly so I had to clean up about 12 gallons of water all of the floor. I also had two leaks coming from one of the Waterfall return junctions, this is why I do a full pressure test before I put anything in. I will continue to monitor it through tomorrow to ensure that I am good to go and then I will finish setting up the baskets and prepping the water to be ready for the ladies planting day!!! 2/11/2024- Germination Day 5- #1 Of course is going to be my trouble plant.. No matter what If she lives through planting in the system and making it, I think I might not cull her at all regardless, she has been such a problem, makes me wonder if she will be super worth it towards the end.. We will see as we go through this grow, but #1 has a piece of the shell on the leaves, Other than that I set up a new thing I have been doing since last grow converting my Baskets into Sure plants so I can see exactly where the water is when I plant them and ensure I have the water up high enough that they are able to access it and grow but not too high were they are drowning. 2/12/2024- Germination Day 6- Everything seems to be going good.. will just keep them moist and let the roots grow for a few more days before I transplant to forever home. 2/13/2024 - Germination Day 7- Just keeping them Moist. 2/14/2024 - Germination Day 8 - Planting day.. they are now in the system.. :-)I had to fill the water to the bottom of the basket where I could see water on the bottom rocks and just coming up where I had created my whole/ sure plant. 2/15/2024 - Germination Day 9- Top fed just a little to keep them moist and encourage root growth towards the water. I ensured the PH is right at 5.98-6.02 range. 2/16/2024 - Germination Day 10- Top fed just a little to keep them moist and encourage root growth towards the water.
