🌸 Week 4 Flower – Gelonade Run (Week 8 from Seed)
The garden this week feels like a song in mid-chorus, not at the beginning, not at the climax, but at that perfect moment where everything flows together, alive and in rhythm.
The Gelonade girls continue to thrive as they enter their fourth week of flower. Both phenos are strong, healthy, and stacking nicely, but once again, the spotlight belongs to Pheno #2, our unicorn with her unforgettable leaves.
🍃 The Freak Leaves – Nature’s Masterpiece
Every week she amazes me. The leaves are massive, sculpted, and utterly unique, opening like fingers folding out of a hand, splitting and stretching in ways I’ve never seen before. They don’t just capture light; they capture attention. They’re freakish only in the sense of being extraordinary.
This week I did a light defoliation, removing just a few fan leaves here and there to let air and light move through the canopy. Nothing heavy, just enough to open the girls up so they can breathe freely. The freak leaves still dominate the show, and I couldn’t be happier.
💧 Nutrition – Aptus x Plagron Fusion
The nutrient strategy stays consistent, built on the solid foundation of super soil and pellets while enhancing with a balanced booster program:
• Aptus Regulator – for structure and stress resistance
• Aptus CalMag Boost – for strong frames and chlorophyll balance
• Plagron Trio (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation) – each at 1 ml/L
This blend is improvisation, yes, but with intention. Aptus provides the backbone, while Plagron brings a bloom-focused push. EC remains low (around 0.6) and pH steady at 6.1. The girls are feeding happily without signs of deficiency or excess.
Environment & Conditions
Temperatures are still a little warm at times, but airflow and extraction keep things under control. Humidity floats between 50–60%, and the TrolMaster system continues to guide watering, keeping soil moisture around that 19–20% mark before irrigation. The ecosystem, from lights to sensors to airflow, is tuned and humming, letting the girls focus on flowering.
🌱 Quick Recap – From Seed to Now
• Week 1–2: Germination and fragile seedling stage, roots digging in.
• Week 3–4 Veg: Vigorous branching, structure building, unicorn leaves making their first appearance.
• Week 5–6: Transition to flower, pistils forming, stretch in full swing.
• Week 7–8 (now): Bud sites stacking, white hairs everywhere, plants at ~88 cm, morphing beautifully into early bloom.
It’s been a journey of balance — super soil below, light above, and the grower’s touch in between.
🔮 Looking Ahead
Next week, I expect to see the beginnings of bud swelling as calyxes start to stack and flowers take shape. Pistils will multiply, resin glands will begin to sparkle, and the true magic of flower development will begin. What not to expect just yet: density. These next couple of weeks are about building the frame of the buds; the bulk will come later.
⸻

that beauty is often found in the unexpected

I'm watering her almost every day. 2 lt. The only mistake I make is the pebble at the bottom of the pot. Keep plant dry. But increase ph the water stagnant. She is a cover of buddies. Short internode. Compared to hydro.

Interesting week; she’s packing on and the trichromes are getting cloudy. She has been on a regular watering schedule (every other day) for awhile now. Woke up yesterday and a handful of branches were nearly parallel to floor. Using some plant yoyos (for first time) so prevent that happening again.
Will begin the flush at next watering.

5/8
Watered both with plain PH'd water yesterday. Both of the plants are sucking up leaves. Trichomes are only really looking amber on the brown leaves, but otherwise milky.
5/10
Decided that these brown-leaved buds on Trainwreck were ready, so I tried a little bro-science and watered an hour before harvesting. Noticed there were some really nice green young buds intertwined, so I did my best to trim around to leave them for another week or so. No weight measurements yet, will wait till after trimming and before curing.

Scrog works perfect, abit lose, but manageable.
If you wonder about my home made scrog net, its made from 18mm hot water pvc tube, some screws and rope 😅
Watering when needed, every other watering I used Fox Farm Big Bloom, Grow Big & Tiger Bloom.

Harvested on 09/28
She started flowering early and finished fast, exactly what I was hoping for. She faced a lot of rain and just had one moldy spot
She has a fruity/grapefruity note. I do not like this smell😅

This week the flowers really started to bulk up.
I was worried about having very loose buds as the development starts off very slow but eventually they really bulk up nicely!!
The topped plant is about 2 weeks behind in flower but has way more main collas! Check the last video for both plants

Very busy week. Completed three upgrades to chamber. 1. Got new 1200W COB LED light. Bright sharp light. 2. Got new Humidifier which has a built in hydrostat and is set to 55%. 3. Got a Autopilot APC8200 CO2 controller and can now inject CO2 automatically based on set range around 1300PPM. The CO2 is injected to chamber with the intake fan on and it seems to hang very well. At night I turn the exhaust fan on to make it cooler for dark period. Hopefully growth will increase this week. Also started LST with both.
