Culminé mi cultivo de Gelato 44 y quise compartir mi experiencia con el set-up completo. El fc6500 de Marshydro ofreció una iluminación uniforme que maximizó el desarrollo del dosel, mientras que los Adlite permitieron un ajuste preciso del espectro lumínico en cada fase. A partir de la aplicación de XpertNutrients se notó un impulso decisivo en la salud y el vigor de las plantas: se desarrollaron cogollos densos y resinosos, con un perfil aromático muy marcado que realzó el carácter de la genética. Este conjunto de equipos y nutrientes facilitó un cultivo robusto y de alta calidad, superando mis expectativas en rendimiento y acabado. Sin duda, una combinación que recomiendo a quienes buscan resultados superiores.

Day 76 - 07/12/19 The Quick One has turned into a Fat One! The colas are just huge! nice lavender smell and very sticky! the buds also look a lot more dense this time compared to my last diary probably due to adding calmag and pk13/14 and this plant is over twice as tall haha. it finished its stretch at 43cm so shouldnt be a bad sized harvest. I fed the plants last night with their last dose of nutes and im going to start flushing from today right up until harvest. My tap water is at 140ppm so this should be okay for flushing. ive grown all my plants with this tap water and tbh i used to let it sit out for a day or two to evaporate chemicals but i havent done that in ages. plants dont seem to mind it straight from the tap. but yeah flushing from today right up until around the start of next week. it should only need a week flush as its coco coir but im expecting to harvest on Day 85. The top of the main cola started to look weird and was definitely getting burned from the light. i took a small bit off as i cant adjust the height of my lights just now, gotta fit these rope rachets the light is just so damn heavy lol. im not worried tho, expecting about an ounce from this harvest, maybe more from my diesel auto diary. Still im very proud. this is my first plant with big colas, and not only tall but fat! cant wait to see how dense the buds turn out to be and i think my last harvest was at week 9 so this has had much more time to mature. I pulled a lot lot of leaves off this plant as they were crispy and yellowing. ive been feeding light amounts of nitrogen for a while so its either just the plant yellowing or the crispiness is light burn. either way you will notice from the pictures. upper colas have no fan leaves lol. and i added a couple of photos through the jewelers loupe, couldnt really get a good angle. but the breeder estimate is 8-9 weeks and il be finishing on week 12 so itll most likely be ready. I got a few more seeds and they are going to be stunning! award winning genetics and also exotic and high thc autoflowers! im using biobizz light mix and i should be starting once i harvest this diary so keep an eye out for that and check out my other diaries if you get a chance. Day 78 - still giving 1.8l of water per day. wanted to ensure im getting all the nutes and salts out of this so i gave 1.8l of phed water earlier in the day and 1.8l of phed water 6 hours later. going to try stick to the 1.8 per day as the soil dries out overnight with that amount :) Other than that the plant is looking great. some faint purple colors and its pretty frosty! nice big buds. once the plant is harvested and trimmed im gonna dry some on a drying rack for about a week. and some hung up to dry in a cardboard box for 2 weeks. Day 79 - 10/12/19 Harvested the top half of a side cola today so its cured just before christmas 🎄 and i wanted to let light penetrate the lower buds! Have a look at the pictures and let me know what you think in the comments :) Biobizz light mix arrived and im thinking of starting my next batch of seeds, keep an eye out for those diaries starting up :) I plan to harvest on day 85! so excited for this one! Day 79 same day update: Took a few pictures of the bud drying :) im gonna dry it slowly and just let the 21-23c room temperature 50-60% humidity do its job. and let me know what you guys think about using a drying rack like in the picture for buds? Day 80 - 11/12/19 A few days shy of 12 weeks now so i decided to harvest another couple of side colas! Snipped a cola down to individual buds removing all trim and the other cola i didnt break down i just trimmed. il add photos tomorrow to show what i mean :) The trim was really frosty and looked quite cloudy/plastic and the buds are covered in cloudy/amber pistils. I smoked a couple of bongs of the test bud which has been drying for about 24 hours now and im pretty stoned! very relaxed in my back and shoulders. no muscle pain. my head is heavy with enhanced audio and visuals :) this is turning out to be a beautiful afternoon smoke! very proud of myself :) Only a few more days until full harvest and i cant wait to cut the main cola down. id say the main cola could be near an ounce when dried as it looks thicker than my arm 😂 Day 81 - 12/12/19 What a night ive had :) been up for ages fine trimming 2 side colas i pulled off the plant tonight. the flushing was worrying me with the extra humidity rise. i added a ton of pictures to show off the whole ordeal as best as possible :) and i came across some mold halfway up one of the giant colas. was a very small pocket of fluff so i cut around the affected area and didnt lose too much (about 2g if dried) the side colas were so much bigger than expected. completely filled my whole raw tray with buds and my drying rack is starting to fill up. Im like a small child again as these colas are the biggest individual piece of weed that ive held :) really proud that i grew this! I also got a lot of trim and little popcorn buds. gonna keep then for edibles and dry up these test buds. 3 Days until harvest of the main cola :) and check out the pictures and videos i added at the end. huge colas! :)

Days 74 - 80 (from seed) 4/15/24 - 4/21/24 Lamp distance: 13" @ 50% power (estimate PAR?) VPD: not checking - humidity set to 40% Feed schedule: feed schedule once a week, 1/4 gallon water per plant daily - FPE added at 2oz per gallon every third day IPM: visual inspection only Notes: Final push, fading occurring on all plants now and some amber starting to show during trichome inspection. Cookies & Berries taking the most time of the group to finish while Mango Sky crossed the finish line first. All four plants will be chopped next week on the morning after the full moon, April 24th - according to the moon gardening calendar it is "best time to pick medicinal herbs and plants, while flowers if cut during this time have an intense scent and endure longer." They're close to finished in my book so it can't hurt to follow the lunar suggestion.

No.1: She went outside 1 week after #3 but is healthy and happy. No.3: loving life and twice the size of #1. Did some defoliation of 4 big fan leaves.

Sticky Broccoli Auto — Week 3 Update Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms Event: Eternity Cup Stage: Late Veg (Pre-Flower Transition Approaching) ⸻ Growth Overview Week 3 showed aggressive vegetative expansion. Plants are stacking nodes quickly with strong lateral branching and tight internodal spacing. No visible pistils yet, but structure suggests pre-flower is approaching soon. Feeding frequency has increased to near-daily, which aligns with rapid coco dry-back under elevated PPFD and warmer temps. Plants are handling higher EC without tip burn or clawing, indicating strong uptake and healthy root function. ⸻ Light Settings 2/5 — Spectrum Adjustment • 60% Cool • 40% Warm • 0% IR • 0% UV • 430 PPFD This spectrum favors vegetative growth by emphasizing blue light for tighter structure while maintaining enough red for balanced development. ⸻ Environment 2/6 • Temp: 84°F • RH: 69% VPD is on the higher transpiration side at that temperature. This explains the heavier feeding demand and strong nutrient pull. Plants are metabolically active and drinking accordingly. ⸻ Watering & Nutrient Log All nutrient amounts listed per gallon. ⸻ 2/6 • 1 gallon mixed • ¼ gallon per plant via auto system • 1050 PPM • 5.8 pH .5 ml Silicium 2 ml Mag-Cal 10 ml Cocos A 6 ml Cocos B 1 ml Royal Rush 4 ml Pure Zym 4 ml Photo + 2 ml Fish Sh!t 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Notes: Elevated PPM largely from Scientetics Mag-Cal addition. No signs of toxicity; plants appear to be responding positively. ⸻ 2/7 • Light defoliation • Cleaned lower growth to prevent sprayer interference • Removed 2 larger fan leaves per plant for penetration • 5-gallon batch mixed • Auto system ran 2 minutes • 5.8 pH • No runoff Nutrient mix remained identical. ⸻ 2/8 • Auto system ran 3 minutes • Small runoff achieved • 1250 PPM • 5.8 pH Same nutrient ratios maintained. Observation: 1250 PPM in week 3 is aggressive for autos, but structure and leaf posture suggest they’re metabolizing efficiently. ⸻ 2/10 • Removed 2 large top leaves per plant to open side branching • 2 gallons mixed • Auto ran 3 minutes • ½ gallon per plant • Small runoff achieved • 900 PPM • 5.8 pH Adjusted mix: .5 ml Silicium 2 ml Mag-Cal 10 ml Cocos A 6 ml Cocos B 1 ml Royal Rush 4 ml Pure Zym 2 ml Fish Sh!t 5 ml Ruby Fulvic Photo + removed this feed cycle. Lowered PPM to 900 — a smart reset to prevent salt stacking while maintaining daily feeding cadence. ⸻ Nutrient Function Breakdown Silicium • Strengthens cell walls • Improves stress tolerance • Supports upright leaf posture Mag-Cal • Provides calcium for cell structure • Magnesium for chlorophyll production • Essential under high LED intensity Cocos A & B • Primary macro base (NPK + micros) • Drives vegetative expansion Royal Rush • Early metabolic stimulator • Supports nitrogen utilization Pure Zym • Enzyme product • Breaks down dead root matter • Prevents medium compaction in coco Fish Sh!t • Microbial inoculant • Enhances nutrient conversion Ruby Fulvic • Chelation support • Improves micronutrient uptake • Increases efficiency at higher EC Photo + (earlier feeds) • Carbohydrate support • Microbial fuel • Supplemental metabolic enhancer ⸻ Technical Observations • Feeding frequency is appropriate for 84°F + 430 PPFD • Achieving slight runoff on 3-minute cycle is ideal • Dropping from 1250 to 900 PPM was a strong preventative move • No pistils yet — expect pre-flower within 5–10 days At this pace, they are setting up for a strong stretch phase. Structurally, they look primed for a controlled but productive transition into flower.

La FantomOG KushV3 est juste impressionnante ! Une fertilisation qui la pousse au mieux de ses capacités. Passage en fertilisation floraison phase 2. On arrete le lacalvastress, et on diminue le booster de croissance

The girl is not in a hurry to grow:) but she looks healthy, today she seems to have recovered after the transplant:)

In around 8 weeks just doin her own thing nd doin it wel so far hairy head on her started so see how long she takes from now hoping to see colours starting to show soon

Fight with high humidity. Any advice?

Mas tarde actualio comentarios

Still looks like crap but I'm letting her do her thing. I didn't have the heart to cull it, and I wanted to see how resilient this girl could be. I top dressed her and gave her some nutes. She's looking better than she did so that's encouraging. We'll see what happens in the next couple weeks until she finishes.

Cruising along.

La tercera semana de floración se hace presente en nuestro jardín para las green gelato de RQS. Continuamos con las dosis de fertilizantes correspondientes a su tiempo de cultivo. Notamos ya la correcta formación de las flores lo que nos asegura unos resultados realmente esperanzadores! #Surcannabico #heavengrowligths #Royalqueenseeds #nutrientesquemanta

Day 84:These girls are so close now that I expect the next update to be one for the drying period. The Los #1 is a totally different colour in her ripening to the other 2. She feels like she has biscuit crumbs all over her now too. Her smell is so fresh fruit and I do think days are her time left now. The #2 has continued to swell he buds for the finish and she is colouring up nice too. #3 The poorly girl is steady in her ripening now and the buds are rock solid too. They all have a very fruity smell to them now and it hits me everytime I open the flap. They are on water now for their last few days , just to signal them to start using their leaves for their last feeds. peace and blessings.

I can't wait to smoke it

Well tying down is no longer an option, now the fight is to get them to stand up!! #shittyproblems No let up on white hairs yet!! It makes me sad and happy at the same time lol

Tangerine Band is doing well. She had to be hst again today. She also got a solution change. She should be ready for the final push to finish.

📓 Cultivation Diary: The 12/12 Flip & Transition Week 📅 June 5, 2026 (Veg Day 17) Irrigation/Reservoir: Prepared a full 100L reservoir refresh. Nutrients: Kept the feeding aggressive with a double dose of vegetative nutrition (x2 Nutrient formula) to ensure the root zones and plant tissues are fully stocked with elements before the transition. Canopy Observation:the canopy is thick, uniform, and fully occupying the table space. The trellis net is officially filled out, and the lower branches are strong and rigid. 📅 June 6, 2026 (Day 1 of Flower / Bloom Week 1) The Flip: Officially switched the timers to a 12/12 photoperiod (Lights ON at 6:00 PM / Lights OFF at 6:00 AM). Schedule: First irrigation shot triggers exactly 1 hour after lights on (7:00 PM), followed by a shot every 1.5 hours. Volume: Configured the drip stakes to run for 1 minute per shot, delivering 5 shots total per day. This provides roughly 450ml per plant per day, creating excellent target dry-backs overnight to force vigorous root searching. 📅 June 11, 2026 (Day 6 of Flower / Bloom Week 1) Irrigation/Reservoir: Bumped reservoir capacity up to 110–120L to keep up with increased transpiration as the plants begin their post-flip stretch. Nutrient Recipe (TargetingpH 6.0 EC 2.5 Water: 110–120L Athena Cleanse: 120ml Silica: 220ml (Essential for stem strength during the stretch) CalMag: 10ml Athena Bloom: 600ml (Adjusting base to target 1.2–1.3 EC from Bloom component) Athena Core: 400ml Irrigation Adjustments: Increased the shot duration slightly to 1 minute and 15 seconds to match the accelerating growth pace. The early flowering stretch has officially begun. The tops are noticeably pushing past the trellis net layers, and the node spacing remains tight and stacked. Leaf color is an excellent dark green with healthy, bright yellow-green shoots driving upward at the growth tips. No signs of stress or stalling from the schedule shift.
