•••••••••••••••••••••••••• Sept. 28 - Oct. 4 Week 9 of 12/12 •••••••••••••••••••••••••• WEEKLY SUMMARY: •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🙋‍♀️Fo' Twenny here!🙋‍♀️ We're back with another update on our 🍧🌊🌱 GELATO.G cultivar bred by SEEDSMAN SEEDS! It's week 9 and all she is presenting all of the beautiful colors of Fall 🍁 as she progresses deeper into senescence! She just seems to get frostier ❄️ by the day and her aroma is reminiscent a of sweet vanilla cake with a hint of kushy funk. I keep checking trichomes, but still not a much amber. Maybe another week or more. Also, I realized my BlueLab Conductivity Meter has the option to switch to EC. Since EC is the most accurate way to measure the nutrient concentration in a solution, I will now be measuring and reporting EC readings rather than PPM. Any advice, suggestions, or constructive criticisms are always welcome. Now, for the weekly break down! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• THIS WEEK'S BREAK DOWN •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 9/30 - Day 59 of BLOOM °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° 📸 PHOTOSHOOT! 📸 🎥 FILMING! 🎥 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 10/2 - Day 61 of BLOOM °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° 🚿FEED DAY!🚿 - She received approximately 2 gallons of nutrient solution. I mixed 6 gallons of solution for all the plants I have running in this SOG. 2 gallons of that was then measured and fed to this cultivar. This week I used some gallon bottles filled with water and frozen to lower temps in the reservoir. 👩‍🔬NUTRIENT SOLUTION👩‍🔬 ⬇️Mixing Rundown⬇️ - The solution starts with 6 gal tap H2O through two kdf filters mixed in a 36 gallon reservoir. The solution is applied via wand sprayer powered by a submersible pump attached to a garden hose.

Dutch Passion - Melonads Runtz Harvest We’ve completed this amazing grow, and I must say, we truly enjoyed it! The plant grew easily and initially had a bush-like shape, but later, it transformed into a Christmas tree look. The aroma is incredibly delicious, and the yield is impressive. The buds are dense and covered in resin; while trimming, our fingers were coated in such a thick layer of sticky resin that the scissors wouldn’t cut the leaves anymore. We want to extend our gratitude to Dutch Passion for such an amazing strain—we absolutely loved growing it. We also want to give a huge thanks to Xpert Nutrients for the outstanding fertilizer that has helped us grow such beautiful and powerful plants year after year. Without your products, it would have been much harder to achieve these results. The nutrients are easy to use and of exceptional quality! Why I Choose Xpert Nutrients: When it comes to growing strong, healthy plants, choosing the right fertilizer is key. After several years of experience in indoor cultivation, I can confidently say that Xpert Nutrients stands out from the rest, and here’s why: 1. Unmatched Quality: From the very first use, it’s clear that Xpert Nutrients is made from premium, high-quality ingredients. Every bottle is consistent, and the nutrients are perfectly balanced for each stage of the plant’s growth cycle. This attention to detail has allowed me to grow incredibly healthy plants with powerful roots, lush foliage, and dense, resin-packed buds. 2. Easy to Use: No complicated mixing instructions or guessing games. Xpert Nutrients provides clear guidelines, and I never have to worry about whether I’m giving too much or too little. The nutrients dissolve perfectly in water, leaving no residue or sediment in my system, making feeding a breeze. 3. Consistent Results Every Time: I’ve used Xpert Nutrients across multiple grows, and the results are consistently impressive. My plants grow faster, are more robust, and yield more, whether I’m growing autoflowers or photoperiod plants. Each time, the buds come out dense, sticky, and packed with potency. 4. Boosts Potency and Flavor: One thing I’ve noticed is that Xpert Nutrients doesn’t just help with growth; it also boosts the aroma and flavor of the final product. My plants consistently produce some of the most aromatic and flavorful buds I’ve ever grown, making each harvest a true sensory experience. 5. Optimal Performance with Every Strain: Whether I’m growing strains from Dutch Passion, Anesia Seeds, or Humboldt, Xpert Nutrients works wonders with all of them. I can rely on it to provide the essential nutrients my plants need to thrive, no matter the strain or growing conditions. 6. Support and Trust: The customer service and support from the Xpert Nutrients team have been incredible. They genuinely care about their customers' success and are always ready to provide advice and guidance. Knowing I have such a supportive company behind me is invaluable. After years of growing, I’ve tried a lot of different fertilizers, but Xpert Nutrients has consistently delivered the best results. It’s a product I trust, and it never lets me down. If you’re serious about growing the best plants possible, Xpert Nutrients is a game-changer you can’t afford to miss.

Flowering slowly, likely due to the roots having low PH(4-5).. I flushed her a few weeks back.. I'm done experimenting with nutrients for now; I had better results, with less issues with just using the basics. *Special Nug picture - This Bud-site has a different shape/structure compared to every other nug on this plant.. Never seen this before, on any other strain.

Sorprendente questa gorilla 🦍 cookies 🍪 tra poco la testo e vi dirò com'è...,. Sicuramente gustosa e forte...

Day 16 : flowering intensifies ! It seems she stoped her stretch. I will begin PK 13-14 in 5 days. (Sorry, I couldn't make some pict Day 17 & 18 cause of my disease. I've passed all the week end in the bed. 😔😔😔)

Stardawg 2 is doing it's thing. Still got some budding to do so another 2-3 weeks I think at least. Partly because I have moved to a 12-12 light cycle now for #1 to try and flower, as well as a couple of photoperiods I have in the tent. I have attempted to supercrop the tops of #1 as it's above my reflector now. Too big lol. About 70-80cm.

End of 6.week.

Hi people! Everyone knows that growing requires patience from the grower! otherwise nothing good will come of it .. and in this case my patience is at the limit)) but I hold on .. I'll tell you why ..)) I'm used to growing my plants using lst topping defoliation and all possible training methods .. (as you can see by reviewing my diaries ..) well, I was planning to do the same on this girl .. at the age of 3 weeks I did Topping .. well, I was planning further LST and all that .. but it is so beautiful that it will grow, grow round and turn into a beautiful round fluffy bush that I felt sorry to touch her and interfere with her natural beauty .. so I got patience and decided not to touch it at all until completion ..) hands itch to cut off at least a leaf! there are a lot of branches with flowers inside)) I just imagine her in buds in a few weeks) and it takes my breath away from understanding how beautiful she will look ..

Bruce became a very pretty lady imo , grew on two nice big colas, other buds are pretty big too imo and really super dense. And above all her colours and her smell are making me a very happy man

first week of flower. shes looking good. 👍 20/4 - 550-600 ppfd. reading done with photone, using paper diffuser, close enough to what i was imagining it would be, with 75% at 16’. d.45 - she grew 3 cm over 24 hours, thats pretty impressive! d.48 - light defoliation in the bottom

Another week of slowly reaching the harvest date. Early sugar leaves on tops are showing average 10% amber trics. Calyxes are swelling with each day, generating dense new trics to still ripen. Pistils are browning, about 50% now with slight new growth/foxtailing on the tops. Its getting real smelly.. maybe time for a filter, with a space this confined its gonna be a mission fitting one on. Fan leaves withering off, no stress. Buds are becoming dense and are weighing the stems down probably looking at harvesting in 2 weeks to allow new trics to go cloudy. Hoping to click over 2 oz with this plant but aslong as the smoke is smooth and potent im not worried about yeild. Cheers boys and girls for checking in, let me know what you think, have a good day 👍

Added the Monster PK 18/20 to the mix at 0.25ml/L to see how she pumps up over the next few weeks. She already has gotten significantly taller and the bud sites now are more visible with small bits of trichomes starting to show.

Lo primero perdonad por no actualizar esto mas seguido, el trabajo y las pocas horas de luz solar no ayuda, cuando salgo es de noche y llego a casa de noche y no puedo prestarles mucha atencion a las plantas y hacerles las fotos correspondientes.. Pues asi van las niñas de Divine Seeds, la Auto Moon Rock me esta encantando, que monton de resina saca esta planta.. Ya empiezan a oler muy bien.. Como veis una de las Auto Fractal va a tardar mas en cosecharse que la otra auto fractal y que la auto moon rock. Ahora ya estare con actualizaciones mas seguidas, para el final del cultivo, el concurso no voy ni acercarme a ganarlo, pero da igual asi e podido probar estas geneticas de Divine Seeds.

Day 3 so after mites and a mishap with the wrong detergent. We are back with my next try at growing Sugar Breath, which has to smell better then new puppy breath. As of Saturday Fozzy Bear (we wanted it Fozzie but official paper work says otherwise) joined the family and his new big brother Buddy. He has already grown a few inches since we got him but god is he ever cute, and god bless Buddy for taking his playful shit since

To be honest overall this strain done good so as the others. Reflecting back on how i started with just a tent and light, and slowly buying the fans and filters whiles the plants were growing. But i did want these plants to grow naturally without topping and Low Stress Training. I regret not removing the lower branches becuase i did get alot of small airy buds down there. But it was all trial and error. All i done was remove some fan leaves when good to do so every now and then. Not on a mad level tho, i did have alot of sugar leaves which i will be making some stuff with! At veg the plants had deficiencies due to out of date Biobizz bottles. But that got sorted with the magic of Algimac and Calmag. Overall Next time I will definitely train the plants and maybe top a few. Final Yield: Plant #1 21.88 Grams Plant #2 33.36 Grams Plant #3 56.06 Grams Which yield exactly 110 grams! Ounces come out very fat with these light buds Not bad for the conditions they were brought up in, and with no training! Thanks for everyone who has followed this diary throught out the journey! I hope this diary will help people out. And thank you to Seedstockers for very cheap and quality seeds. And special thanks for the GrowDiaries Team for providing the best platform for growing journals! I couldnt explain how much this Diary helped me. Its like a dream come true finding a site like this! And if you do see this message, i would love to see a Iphone app coming soon! Kind Regards! One love!

week 5. oct 9 I believe I am getting the calmag deficiency corrected - none on new leaves. one stretched to 23 inches by 10-16. growing about 1.5" a day. the middle plant is at 15.5" 10-16. growing over an inch per day. hopefully they stop next week when they are flowering. the back plants definitely show signs of flowers with the hairs starting to grow. Interestingly the plants at the front seem a few days behind.
