***** Week 12 growth - February 20 to 26, 2021 - Week 3 Flower *****
These girls have been happy all week and CL2 has looked happiest still. CL1 pheno came out of the gate stronger and taller from the beginning but I have been looking for a little more out of her so while I was giving GSC x 707Headband some fulvic acid in her feed I gave some to CL1 also. She has reacted well to it, or it certainly hasn’t brought about anything negative. Used Gold Storm at 5ml/L👍 CL2 is just freaking gorgeous and may be a keeper, in early growth anyways😃 Love her size, node spacing, leaf to calix ratio, thick branching, early trichome production......all on point so far🔥When I took a leaf the other day the underside vein appeared to be slightly starting a color change......should be some purple in there somewhere with that genealogy😍
Light is at 20” and pulling 480 watts at the end of the week. Stated off with 400 watts at the start of the week but keep pushing it up this week. I don’t want to break 1,000 to 1,100 PAR by very much as I am not supplementing with true CO2. I have an Exhale bag to raise it a couple hundred ppm. Feel the need to keep the intensity high for penetration lower in the canopy. Will lower the amount of time in daylight if stress gets too high. Push to 11/13????
Nutrients are following IPP HOG 3 Part pretty closely. Just playing with macro nutrient ratios but otherwise supplements are at full week dosages following week 3. Have been seeing great resin production last runs so staying with Rezin as part of their feed schedule in flower. Terpinator......I think I see a lot of sulfer benefit here so it stays in the grows as well. Recharge seems to be working out well but we did the change mid grow from Microbial Mass. Since in coco have to feed the microbes so they reproduce and really dig Nature’s Candy with Remos additives in there👍 To help keep the root zone clean we add Enzymes😃 I have been debating a lot lately about the addition of CalMag to these nutrient lines and it’s necessity but since in coco I keep adding some......noticed a couple of spots on MM2 so have added it back in a bit more this week.
Little more detail.......
Feb 20/21 - Day 15
- Full feed today.....it’s been five days.
- tap water with Silica @ 1.5ml, IPP line at full strength.
- 1400ppm and 6.1pH
- CL2 given 4L with good runoff.
- CL1 was given some fulvic acid in Gold Storm. Help with giving her a chance to stretch a little more. Little more node spacing.....bushier girl.
- 5ml/L added to feed for 1490ppm and 6.1pH. She was given 4L with good runoff.
Feb 21/21 - Day16
- Dry out day
Feb 22/21 - Day 17
- watering with supplements and light feed today. We are in mid flower now.....need to keep the macro nutrients up.
- Epsom salts @ 1 Tbsp in 20L. Purple on stems is getting prominent......could be cold temps but also giving magnesium.
- Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml, grow @ 1ml, micro @ 2ml, bloom @ 2.5ml, Recharge @ 1 Tbsp in 20L.
- 1400ppm and 6.0pH.
- 4L
Feb 23/21 - Day 18
- keeping up the silica this watering
- silica @ 1ml, CalMag @ 1ml, Ultimate B+ @ 1ml
- 600ppm and 6.0pH
- 3L Little to no runoff this watering.
Feb 24/21 - Day 19
- full feed again today.....girls are big and growing hard......keep it going💪
- IPP line as listed for full line.
- Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml
- 1425ppm and 6.0pH
- they are taking the high ppm feeding well.
Feb 25/21 - Day 20
- Had some feed water left from yesterday. Added plain tap water to get 20L.
- 810ppm and 6.1pH
- 1.5L......don’t want to over saturate the medium.
Feb 26/21 - Day 21
- Nothing today.
- Will feed early tomorrow as it’s Saturday.
- Let the root zone get some oxygen is my thought and water to nice runoff first thing in morning.
Week 3 behind us and going into 4.....middle of flower and girls are feeding hard. Pushing the lights hard now as well so need to keep the ppm up👍 Little more variety in these two phenos but certainly not negative differences. In the end I think CL1 might have bigger colas than CL2 because she is getting some wide/thick bud tops. I do like the appearance of 2 better though because I suspect trim is going to be better as well😎 Again though......I am make sure nothing happens to the clone of CL2 and Mandarin Mimosa 1 right now💪👊 Good week ETS.....let the swelling begin🌟

Woo-wee!! The kief on this strain is like nothing I've ever seen, we've grown an insane amount of different strains (easily 3x what we've documented) and this one wins🏆.. I've included pictures but none can do it justice, the trichomes are visible to the naked eye and just falling over each other.. the smoke is very smooth (the little bit that's dry), this despite no cure yet, it melts in the pipe....we made another batch of tincture (for me lol), 12fl oz with 1oz Bruce Banger bud, oven dried slow and then decarbed at normal temps.. 10ml of this tincture made my knees weak lol, its been great for sleep at night..that last part was surprising to me, when smoked it definitely has all sativa qualities but the tincture is like Nyquil (I could have over cooked it)...as always accurate weights are out of the question, we dry only our half here and the rest goes to other houses to dry once harvested but if I had to guess I'd say we got around roughly a half lb, maybe 7ozs..the dry box smells like Fruit Loops cereal with a little bit of diesel ⛽ 🍓, its really pleasant..I'm really glad we grabbed clones of this, we have roughly 10 plants, some will be passed to family but we'll definitely be flowering a bunch more for ourselves... thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️💡🌱😽💨

First week of flowering!
I chose to also do some lst on this lady, a bit of a different approach. She survived a couple of very warm days(32°C). The lower leaves started to die off so I used some more nutes.
Watered with 2l(nutes), 1,5l(no nutes) and 2l(nutes).
She is starting to smell a bit also, looking forward to seeing the buds!

Ok, so it's slowly getting thicker and frostier. At week seven my girl could be ready in anywhere from two weeks to four weeks more.
The light was dropped closer to the top of the canopy. I decided to try 15 cm of distance, as well four 50W LEDs are not as powerful as the 600W HID or LED panels that are usually used in grow tents. I will of course keep an eye for signs of light and heat stress, but I suspect that won't be a problem.
Update Day 89.
Today I decided to turn the plant around to see the back colas and their growth. Then I found some mites under the leaves after examining weird spots in a couple of leaves. It seems to me that there was not enough airflow to deter the mites from making home in the back leaves, when compared to the front leaves of my plant. Lesson learnt, rotate plant often, ensure good and even airflow.
I didn't find any webs beside a really small one seen on the video (most affected leaf). So, I think I found them mites early. I only found this kind of damage on very few leaves, and each leave contained less than 8 mites (at least that I could see) and a couple of eggs. So it seems that paying close attention to my leaves saved me from an out of control infestation.
Anyhow... I removed all of the leaves that had even a single mite, or a single mark of discoloration.
Also, I disinfected the grow tent, top of soil and lower part of the branches by spraying them with a 1/4 tbsp of bleach per liter of water.
After that was completely dry, I mixed one part rubbing alcohol with 9 parts water and misted both sides of the leaves and even the buds directly (ethanol evaporates easily, so there shouldn't be residues left after it dries completely).
I got these remedies from https://www.growweedeasy.com/cannabis-plant-problems/how-to-get-rid-of-spider-mites
I will apply them every 3-4 days and keep a good eye on the leaves.
Prevention is key, and some aspects I could've considered before are:
1. not grow any other plant next to my cannabis
2. Don't come into my indoor growtent after tending my outdoor plants.
3. Ensure even and plenty airflow.
So, I attacked back strongly. I cut more leaves than those that showed damage, to increase airflow. I will be on the watch for pests and will rotate my plant often, as well as spraying a few times every week, just to make sure they don't come back.
I also am going to build a kind of metal wire cage to separate the colas further and make it harder for any pest to spread.
Its only my second grow, but from what I've read online about mites, it's way more costly (time and money) to deal with an infestation than to strike them hard early. I guess that specially now that I noticed them before they even made webs.
Look closely at your girls growbros !
Update day 90.
So this morning I. Becker the trichomes and they seem to have gotten more cloudy. I am not an expert at that, but they are starting to be fewer clear and more milky. I will keep an eye on them, but it think harvest might be here very soon, probably closer to the 9 week mark than to the 12 week one (I'm about to finish the 7th week)...

So my struggles are finally paying off my girls went into flower!!!
Northern lights- did some low stress training to bring main cola down away from light. Added some vinegar in bowls and shot glasses to grow tent to control these flying knats(which bite).
Pineapple auto- she's in flower I'm just concerned with all the lower leaf issue's that it's going to affect buds. I've over watered this plant which started the leaf issue's at like 3 weeks. At week 4 I trimmed all the fan leaves off which put it in stress almost haulting all growth for a week. Oh and the knats! I will never use walmart soil again for my grows or house plants. The neem oil has really knocked alot of them out. So the leaf burn and star leaves began at week 5 and it was the only feeding i gave my plants with cal mag and within 2 days the throwing star leaves and burning began.. not sure if it was the cal mag or the knats being so bad at that time. But thru all of it this plant has been a fighter!! You can see in pics the new growth and bud sights are healthy so I hope she fights all the way to the end!
I would like to thank Growdiaires and it's community for the opportunity to help and share with others. I appreciate all help, views, likes, comments and support. We all share a common interest and knowledge is power! Thanks again till next week.

Blue Gelato - Royal Queen Seeds
After 124 days of growth and 76 days of flowering, it's finally time to harvest our incredible Blue Gelato from Royal Queen Seeds! The buds are absolutely massive, coated in resin, and the aroma is unbelievably strong—intensely potent, yet so addictive in its richness. It’s like nothing we’ve experienced before. We are completely blown away by this strain!
We didn’t weigh the buds while they’re still wet, but once they dry, we’ll share the final weight. Judging by the size of these beauties, we’re expecting a generous harvest.
A huge thank you to Xpert Nutrients for your ongoing support, top-notch service, and, most importantly, the incredible fertilizers that have helped us grow such powerful plants year after year. Your products are truly the secret behind these massive, potent results. We love Xpert Nutrients!
We also want to give special thanks to Royal Queen Seeds for providing such fantastic genetics. Blue Gelato has exceeded all our expectations in terms of both growth and quality.
And yes, we’ve already had the pleasure of sampling her, and let me tell you—this is premium-grade cannabis! The smoke is incredibly potent, much stronger than expected, and hits hard, leaving a long-lasting effect. It’s not just strong—it’s very strong, and the intensity keeps you floating for quite a while. It’s so powerful that you may find yourself wondering when the high will start to ease up. This is no joke—Blue Gelato is as dangerous as it is amazing, and it’s not one to be taken lightly.
Thank you once again to Xpert Nutrients and Royal Queen Seeds for this phenomenal experience. We couldn’t be happier with the results and look forward to growing more of your amazing products!

This week they are all just putting on some weight still a few weeks left to go. Pics were taken on Monday video on Tuesday. The aromas are pretty strong in the tent in general.
Shes closing in on the finish going to start the flush sometime this week I think just give it a long one. Took some pics with and without flash, using a 85mm and 40mm lense. The close ups are with the 85mm u can see the vibrance of the trichomes.

Have had some challenges this week. In my lack of experience, I have struggle to discern whether my plant is deficient in nutrients, suffering lockout or approaching harvest.
Symptoms were yellowing leaves... The cause of which can be, of course, many different things.
I decided to flush last week, thinking that a nutrient lockout was most likely.
Leaves less yellow this week so think it may have done the trick.
I have spent some time researching and considering flushing as a technique to improve final bud quality.
I have decided that there simply isn't enough evidence to deny my girl of nutrients at a critical phase of her growth.
I am therefore continuing a reduced feeding schedule of
- 1mls topmax
- 2mls BioBloom
- 1 scoop biosys ecothrive
- 2.5mls Cannazym.
And, unless indicated otherwise, will continue with this schedule up until harvest.
Today I have tested PPM of the run off and measure it to be approx 1050ppm.
I will measure again in 24 hours to monitor change after a feed.
Purchased a 60x microscope and am able to see that 90% of trichomes are still clear.
I am therefore anticipating at least another couple of weeks before harvest.
Buds look fluffier than I'd like, but resin and trichome production haven't disappointed.
I'm hoping that over the next few weeks the buds will continue to fatten.
19/11/2021 - Day 79.
Have a few days off so have managed to catch some photos in day light.
Have also uploaded a video.
Feel that she isn't particularly happy... But on the other hand, she is showing the resistance and ability to adapt to less than ideal growing conditions; as promised by the strain genetics.
Plenty of trichs, plenty of resin, plenty of buds.
Just need them to fatten and fill out for maximum yield and quality.
23/11/21 - Day 83 - Still some deficiencies but she doesn't seem to be using much water so reluctant to feed at risk of overwatering.
Noticing lots of new pistil formation.
Looking frosty, but all trichomes still clear.
Temperatures dropping to around 2°c overnight here. Managing to maintain temperatures around 10°c in the shed.
Appreciate that this is too cold for growth but she seems to be coping with it well.
I think that a gradual reduction in temperature has been tolerated better than fluctuant or sudden drops would be.
Fingers crossed that her hardy nature keeps her strong.
Fed today:
1mls BioBloom
2mls Topmax
Half scoop Biosys Ecothrive
Filtered water - pH 6.5, TDS 320
Run off 953 TDS
29/11/21 - Day 90 - no sign of any amber yet. Still mostly clear with a splattering of cloudy.
Really worrying about the night time temps now and holding out hope that it doesn't die off before the trichomes mature.

Awesome! Went away for 10 days over Christmas and was not sure what to expect when I got back. Obviously re-potting them and letting them dry out has been effective. I've started adding a little Fish Mix to their water. I don't think they need it but I'll go really slow and try it out on my tomatoes to see what effect it has on them. I'm cautious about drowning them in nutrients as I have no experience with this and don't want to slow the grow down any more than I already have.

Quiet week with a few temperature issues.
Temperatures are fairly stable now. Took me a while to dial everything in as I've changed to an 18/6 schedule now.

Keeps going. Etsy seeds coming through. I think soon in the grow a cal mag problem comes up. Chime in when you see it.
