Hello. This is the end of week 11 and the beginning of week 12 of veg. They need to grow for another week before flipping to flowering. I'd like them a little bigger. They are doing good and growing well. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.

D08/V06 - 31/08/23 - She's growing very slow and short 🤫 D09/V07 - 01/09/23 - Still waiting for first nodes. EC 0.6 - pH 5.4 📒 D10/V08 - 02/09/23 - I'm arranging her new home 🛠️🛠️🛠️ . D11/V09 - 03/09/23 - I'm planning to move her next week 💼💼💼 D12/V10 - 04/09/23 - She's very slow compared with others girls. I raised the EC for other girls: EC 0.9 - pH 5.4 📒 D13/V11 - 05/09/23 - The roots are ok, I expect she is going to grow better 💥 D14/V12 - 06/09/23 - First node is finally out 😍

Clone when to the dogs literally....other than that growth is good she's nice n healthy....water leaf are get packed with resin n the volume is being cranked up a notch

04/26 - Both ladies have doubled in size in a week - Micro-dosing will increase slightly but will stick with the my big 3 for now (Cal-Mag,Myco,Nitro). I will run them both in 1 gallons for now then final transplant into 5 gallon pots 05/02 - Both ladies are coming along accordingly with out any issues at all - Applied a hard LST on both for better light coverage to the mid - underneath growth - Topped main COLAS.

As I said in the review this was a tough challenge. I'm hopeful that my second attempt at this strain will be successful. Growers Choice Seeds sent me a few more to give it another go. Alex from their customer service department was very helpful and asked to be kept updated on the progress of the CBD. I'm not sure if GCS will ever see this but here's a big thanks <3 Thank you guys (GD) for all the love and support! It was so awesome seeing the get well messages when I was well enough to sit down and check my computer. Seriously, I didn't expect all of that. I am better, still have a few open wound areas but the healing is happening! :) Much love you guys! Meus <3

Helloooo good people, how are you all? I am very happy with this ladies, the Northern Light leaves are sooooo beautiful, wtf!!! :-D The roots are amazing as well! The Mimosa Auto I had to clean up all the plant, she was a little bit weak, but on the next day after defoliation, she was wonderful, full of energy again!!! A happy growth for everyone. Love!!

Day 84 Mon Add Water PH 6.1- 6.0 EC 0.7 - 0.5 DLI 12h PPFD Water 18c Day 85 Tue PH 5.9 EC 0.5 DLI 12h PPFD Water 18c Day 86 Thu PH 6.0 EC 0.5 DLI 12h PPFD Water 22c Day 87 Fri PH 5.9 EC 0.5 DLI 12h PPFD Water 17 Day 88 Sat PH 6.0 EC 0.5 DLI 12h PPFD Water 18c

Still had around 1 gallon of water left in the wicking buckets. They hold around 2 gallons. Flipped light to 12/12 today.

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.

Well growmies ive been looking forward to the Cherry Cola , the more she went into flower the more the frost would build up , and that's when the terps came out and they came out strong , there no stealth for this girl 👉 Stinky 👈 Buds are tight and full of frost 👈 Couldn't of asked for better Genetics 😉 The smell coming from this girl during the entire grow was just dreamy 👈.... Can't say I got the Cherry smells but the fuzzy cola oh ya 😍 Amazing 👉 Big thanks to all my Growmies out there in GD land 👈 Much appreciated 🙏 Thanks To MarsHydro for the TS1000 👉I used NutriNPK for nutrients for my grows and welcome anyone to give them a try .👈 👉 www.nutrinpk.com 👈 NutriNPK Cal MAG 14-0-14👉 All Weeks NutriNPK Grow 28-14-14👉 Weeks 2 & 3 NutriNPK Bloom 8-20-30👉 Weeks 4 to 8 NutriNPK Bloom Booster 0-52-34👉 Weeks 4 & 9 & 10👌👌

I flipped them to flower this week, finally. They are way behind schedule because I didn't have enough space to keep them on their own 12/12 light schedule so they had to stay on 18/6 along with the other plants in the same grow space. They've gotten much bigger than I wanted them to due to that. But I'm hoping if I do the female forced pollen process correctly that'll hopefully mean more seeds to share 😁. I've been spraying the chosen males with colloidal silver for 3 days now. I take them outside to spray them & then let them fully dry before bringing them back in with the girls. Just a safety measure incase I mess up the forced female pollen process I'll still have good & untainted flower to use from the girls.

End of day 54 flower. Trimmed off all fan leaves on day 49. Day 54 moved both girls to a 4x2x5 tent where they will be following there new light schedule until harvest time. They will know winter is coming and start producing more trichomes with low humidity, cold water, less sunlight, lower heat, and then stab her on the main stem before the final day to be cut down. Still feeding them nutes and will probably flush around day 60. Trichomes are still clear and will be watching until they turn 30-40% Amber and then get the cut. Thanks for stopping by. Peace out ✌️

Update February 4, 2019 (Video and Pics actually taken Feb 1). I’m figuring I’m about mid-way into flower now with the 6 girls I have flowering. Overall, I’m very happy with how things are going. The buds are coming in strong on all plants, they are stinky and sticky and I’m not complaining about anything really. But, I still see more yellow than I like. Last week I fed Recharge, Mammoth P, MegaCrop, and CalMag+. I don’t feed all of those at once, Recharge & Mammoth P one time, MegaCrop & CalMag+ the next, then the 3rd is usually straight water. I also seem to be able to go at least a day between waterings/feedings. Anyway, yellowing leaves during flower seems to be most common with a Nitrogen deficiency as far as I can tell. I’m tempted to feed in a round or two of veg nutes to see how that goes. One more thing… I transplanted my clones and seedlings into larger nursery pots today. They were transplanted into pots with soil that has been composting/recharging for almost a month now based on some of the tips from the books I have been reading. I’m excited to see how they react to their new environment.

Beginning of week.. Both have some gorgeous flowers.. Purples are already coming out on both. Both are flooding with complex aromas.. ETHOS Cookies is doing great.. Mandarin Cookies is gonna make it to harvest, I'm sure.. So excited! Mid week.. I love how they both are giving off nice purples on the calyces already! Both smell so amazing! It makes me tear up with joy! Not sure when I should start flushing! ETHOS says that you count 9 weeks from flip to 12/12.. Not pistils forming.. Cuz you know, you need to factor in the transition time.. 1 - 2 weeks.. Sometimes 3! But I am super excited to harvest these lovely ladies!!! Next day... Ok.. So the runoff issue has gotten worse for the Mandarin Cookies.. Obviously, with all the def. you can see.. At least 3 that I can see right away.. Calcium.. Potassium.. Phosphorous.. Maybe even a slight Magnesium def. in there too.. Kinda hard to pinpoint when there is multiple showing, yet I am feeding PLENTY of all of them.. She should have no issues.. The runoff pH is now coming out at about 4.9 - 5.2, depending on a good or bad day, I guess.. I have just been puttinf it in at 6.3 every time.. Sometimes (alot now) I get a salt build-up between feedings.. I like to feed, water, feed, water.. Now I need to feed, water, water, feed, water, water... It's really bothering the shit outta me lol.. But the ETHOS Cookies is pretty close to peing on point.. Going in: 6.3 pH.. Runoff: 5.8 - 5.7.. Still in a decent range.. No signs of issues on any leaves.. They are both making some gorgeous nugs tho! Stackin calyces and trichomes lile crazy! And now they are really fattening up! I am so ready for this run to be over and let this medium dry out reeeeally good.. And take it out back Ol' Yeller style.. Yup.. That sounds like a plan.. I have PLENTY of NEW coco coir bricks and perlite that I have been hoarding.. Just like I do with my genetics 😄.. But I feel like you can never have enough.. And I plan on growing cannabis in coco coir till someone takes me out back Ol' Yeller style! End of week.. They are both showing about 50% turned pistils.. The ETHOS Cookies is a little further along.. Not by much.. But the trichomes on the Mandarin Cookies seem a little further along.. Word.. They are both going to be epic smokes for sure! So I believe I will just give both of them small feedings just to get them through the week, then I should be good to start flushing.. On to the next week!...

Clones are nice and rooted threw off some new growth. So its time to rock and roll into flower. Get this breeding underway. Been on 12/12 for couple days now and the male has soared. Definitely gunna be more than adequate height to dump pollen down on my ladies. I treated with Dr zhymes as s preventative. I also got them on a balanced feed. Hopefully that will get the ladies engines booming. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam. Update **** Holy ball sacs! The master kush is piling on the flowers in clusters. What a machine. Definitely bringing quality traits to the table.

The Gelato has responded well to the topping, the new brunches are growing and the main leaves have opened to collect maximum light, it looks a bit like purple lemonade as a vegetative growth.
