09/06/2018 The Cherry Pie pollen did not look very good however, there was some residue which could be viable. On the other hand the Mystery cookies pollen looked perfectly fresh! I would like to also mention that I pollinated Cherry Pie branch first, and very carefully so as to have no cross contamination,plant was misted with water before pollination with the exception of pollinated branch. Mystery Cookies done the same way.

Week 2 Flowering Pilot #1 continues its transition into the flowering cycle with remarkable vigor, entering week two of bloom with a clear and sustained stretch response. The plant has expanded significantly compared to the previous week, developing a wider canopy and increasing the number of active flowering sites across the entire structure. The training applied during vegetative growth is now showing its full effect. Branches remain well distributed, creating an open architecture that allows excellent light penetration throughout the canopy. Multiple tops are developing simultaneously, with strong lateral branching contributing to a balanced and highly productive structure. Flower formation is becoming increasingly visible, with pistil production intensifying at every primary and secondary flowering site. Internodal spacing remains favorable, providing enough room for future flower stacking while maintaining a compact and efficient canopy. The plant exhibits outstanding vigor and uniformity, with healthy foliage and continuous vegetative activity still present during the stretch phase. Stem strength is excellent, supporting the rapid growth of new flowering shoots and demonstrating a strong capacity to sustain future flower development. At this stage, Pilot #1 stands out for its efficient canopy management, extensive branching, and high number of developing bud sites. Its combination of structure, vigor, and floral initiation suggests excellent production potential as flowering progresses over the coming weeks. 🌱🔥 Seed: World Breeders Grower: Piperoots

Day 63 Flower (Day 105) I'm back! Iceland was breathtakingly beautiful as usual, and I even managed to see an active volcano. Amazing! I have good news and bad news regarding my girls. The good news is that they are both still alive and are overall looking pretty good. The bad news for the left girl is that the cheap irrigation system failed and only watered around 1 liter of water during the entire week. She was extremely thirsty, although still looking pretty good without any drooping. A couple of her leaves turned purple from the stress, though. I recorded a video just as I opened the tent for the first time after coming back a couple of hours ago. The news is worse for the right girl, though. The irrigation system worked flawlessly, so that wasn't the problem. Instead, I detected bud rot in three buds, and of course, it was in the three most significant colas. Fuuuuuuuu... I also shot a video as I opened the tent, and the affected buds are visible if you are paying attention. I have never had bud rot before, so I will need to do additional research on what to do next. I immediately cut off the affected buds and disposed of them outside. I hope I got all the affected areas, but I will inspect all the buds more closely tomorrow. Been traveling most of the day today and need some rest before scouting her buds. I looked at her trichomes quickly and still couldn't see much amber, but I will have a better look tomorrow. The worms have been busy while gone, though, and they were crawling all over when I lifted the old avocados. They aren't the only ones who have been busy as the fungus gnats are back, Sigh. Only a few so far, but yeah, another thing to sort out. The fun just never ends...

04/02/22: Had some mishaps - I visited the grow room and various branches had fallen over due to the weight of the buds - big problem with large sativa breeds. I managed to use large garden sticks, cable ties and plastic clamps to secure them. Other than this plants all looking fine fine fine - large colas throughout - some are even starting to show brown pistils. smell is strong.

🌸 Week 7 Flower – The Calm Before the Harvest And here we are — week seven of flower, and what a journey it has been. From the very first drops of water on tiny seeds to these full, mature blossoms now bowing under their own weight — the Gelonade girls have written their own story in green and gold. Both phenos, #1 and #2, are stunning. Pheno #2, the unicorn with her foxtailing beauty, continues to fascinate — those whimsical towers of calyxes spiraling like dreams reaching for the light. Pheno #1, elegant and balanced, stands beside her sister with a classic structure, both radiating health and character. Together they show us two faces of the same soul — different yet equally divine. 💧 Now It’s Just Water This week, the feeding bottles rest. No more nutrients, no boosters, no extras — just pure water. This is the flush, the gentle cleansing before harvest. By giving only water, we let the plants draw on their reserves, enhancing smoothness, flavor, and the purity of the final smoke. It’s a closing ritual — a moment of reflection and respect for everything these plants have given. 🌱 Quick Recap – From Seed to This Moment • Germination began with The Cannakan method — simple, precise, full of hope. • Vegetative growth brought vigor, beautiful branching, and the discovery of the now-legendary funky leaf mutation. • Transplant into the 11L Amnesia fabric pots gave them the space to breathe and thrive. • Flowering came like a symphony — weeks of stretch, light, and color; a perfect balance of Aptus and Plagron nutrition; canopy lights dancing from above and below. • Foxtailing appeared on Pheno #2, transforming her into a work of art, a living sculpture of what happens when genetics, environment, and light decide to play together. Now, the flowers are glistening — pistils curling, trichomes milky, the scent rich and intoxicating. They are close… very close. Maybe not quite harvest yet, but whispering that they’re ready to show us their final act. 🌿 What to Expect Next In the coming days, we’ll watch for trichomes turning amber, for the pistils darkening, and for that subtle shift in the aroma that says “it’s time.” Expect colors to deepen, aromas to intensify, and the garden to take on that unmistakable aura of readiness. What not to expect? Rush. The girls have given us everything — now we simply wait, watch, and let them finish in peace. 💚 Gratitude To the community, the growers, the dreamers, the quiet watchers — thank you. To the sponsors and creators who make the gear that lets us grow — thank you. To the lovers and the haters — thank you too; you both push us to evolve. And to the Gelonades — thank you for being the living proof that care, patience, and love can create art from soil and light. 🌸 Closing Thought This week feels like the pause between heartbeats — the silence before the song’s last note. Everything we’ve done led us here, and everything that comes next will bloom from this moment. “May the waters run pure, may the buds rest easy, and may we harvest not just flowers — but gratitude for every step that brought us here.” 📝 PS: Pre-Harvest Notes — Knowing When It’s Time The last stretch before harvest is all about observation and patience. Every grower wants to pick the perfect moment, but that moment is a whisper, not a shout. Here’s how to listen for it: 🌼 Trichomes Your best guide. Under magnification, they tell the story. When most are cloudy with a few amber heads starting to appear, the flowers are at their peak — full potency and rich aroma. Clear trichomes mean “not yet,” while too many ambers mean the effect will lean heavier and more sedative. 🧡 Pistils Watch the hairs. Early in flower they stand white and proud, but as harvest nears they curl in and darken to orange or brown. When roughly 70–90% have changed color, the plant is signalling readiness. 🍃 Leaf Fade As you feed only water, the large fan leaves begin to pale, pulling the last stored nutrients into the buds. This is a natural and healthy fade, not a deficiency — it means the plant is completing her life cycle. 💨 Aroma Shift In the final days, the scent deepens — less sweet, more complex. Sometimes you’ll notice earthy, gassy, or fruity tones becoming more defined. That change means the terpenes are reaching full maturity. 🌙 Energy Even the way the plant feels changes — the branches seem to relax, the weight of the flowers makes them bow slightly, as if in quiet surrender to the harvest. When all these signs align — trichomes milky with a touch of amber, pistils mostly curled and dark, the fade in motion, and the room filled with a full, mature scent — then it’s time. Until then, let her dream a little longer. The last few days often bring the biggest magic. ✨ 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Day 50 since seed touched soil. From now on all is in stable position. Joe always will be in left corner, under fan, he was lowest, so it was smart to put him under. Plants dont grow well next to fan. 5 liters went in, want good run off and saturation. Later today will install second level of scrog. Reposition all shoots, some are lost, i almost regret instaling scrog, lost control of even height a bit, but canopy is very dense, branches went fatter during that week, i am happy . Mars TSL2000 is on 80% will increase to 90% at the end of this week. Day 53. Second level of scrog almost eaten, will have to make third, plus heavy clearing awaits next week ... Day 54. Think tomorrow is watering day. Girls need good clearing, bottom canopy been canibalised heavily, lack off air shows a lot. Will do third level of scrog together with watering. Day 55. Watered Joe, he is lowest, but looks nice. Think all deficiencies behind. Made light clearing, only bottom shoots which has 0 chance to make it, took part of LST down. Watering exposed roots - plant is occupying new lair , good sign ;) Happy Growing !!!

05/02/2026 This better be the last week. I have her in the dark for the next two days. Hopefully she gives me some color. Or does that work with the light? Readings: pH: 5.74 EC: 604 cm TDS: 430 ppm Temp: 63.3° Readings after a small top off. pH: 5.88 EC: 590 cm TDS: 413 ppm Temp: 64.4° Readings Again: pH: 6.3 EC: 517 TDS: 405 Temp: 62.8° 05/03/2026 Readings: PH: 6.25 EC: 588 cm TDS: 418 ppm Temp: 67.1° So we can see that the warmer the water, the higher the concentration of salts. I just added an ice bottle, but it's still working it's magic. The pH seems to have leveled out too. As for the high concentration of salts, I'm gonna have to repeat flushing again. Well, in this case, I'm going to pull a gallon out and add another gallon and a half or so of plain pHed water. Reason being, I can't get the bottom of the bucket with my water pump. The roots are all in the way. So it's still loaded with nutrients. And now the water is below the roots. I've been doing my best to avoid topping off, but I think I just want to do the swap. Plain Filtered and pHed tap water readings: pH: 6.08 EC: 435 cm TDS: 307 ppm Temp: 65.7° I pHed a gallon of water. Pulled 3 gallons out of the bucket and put 3.5 gallons back in. Perfect top off especially for the last few days of flushing. I should probably check the trichomes. I haven't since I put her in the dark 2 days ago. Update: after taking a short trichome video, this lady is done. 05/04/2026 May the 4th be with you! Readings: pH: 6.43 EC: 597 cm TDS: 416 ppm Temp: 67.5°

📋 Die Strawberry Banana von Fastbuds hat den Umstieg von der Wachstumsphase in die Blüte vollzogen. Wir befinden uns in Woche 6 gesamt, also in der ersten Blütewoche. Die Pflanze zeigt sich vital und hat die Umstellung gut verkraftet. 💧 In dieser Woche wurde die Pflanze 2-mal bewässert. Zusätzlich zum regulären Schema gab es 2-mal 15 ml S&R Organics 5in1 sowie 1 ml S&R Organics Phosphor Boost als Sondergaben, um den Bedarf für die beginnende Blütenbildung zu decken. Das Substrat besteht aus 30 % Kompost und 70 % Plagron Light Mix, was ihr eine solide Basis bietet. 📸 Der Blick auf die Pflanzen zeigt ein sattes, gesundes Blattgrün. Die Struktur ist offen und zeigt einen kräftigen Haupttrieb. Die ersten Anzeichen der Blütenentwicklung sind an den Internodien bereits gut zu erkennen. Auffällig ist der untere Bereich: Hier zeigen die untersten Blätter leichte Vergilbungen und Trockenstellen, was in diesem Stadium aber oft ein normales Zeichen dafür ist, dass die Pflanze Energie in die oberen Triebe und die neue Blütenbildung verlagert. Der Stamm ist stabil und zeigt eine gute Entwicklung. Die Strawberry Banana steht nun voll im Saft und beginnt den typischen Blüte-Stretch. Ich werde die kommenden Tage genau beobachten, wie sie auf die Phosphor-Gabe reagiert und ob der Durst in der Blütephase jetzt merklich ansteigt. Alles im grünen Bereich, weiter gehts.
