Son esquejes en hidroponía. Solamente agua con un poco de abonos, no añado aditivos. Después de 2 semanas en el Rainforest hago la transferencia hacia el sistema dwc. Es un sistema muy básico y muy eficaz.

I love the sativa shaped nug-towers! When my plants grow big, I like to grow them until the very end of their cycle! That's why the extended flower period. Video of Measurement of yield: T=Tops(92grams), M=Mids(59.1 grams), L=Lowers(58.6grams) Total: 209.7 grams (1-2 grams worth, was taste-tested prior to scaling.)

Day 65: All good they are stinky and getting ready soon. BlackBerry Kush and LSD-25 will be harvested in 2 weeks so I started flushing them. Rest of them need more time at least 3 weeks or 4. Water intake 200 ml a day no more fertilization for Balckberry Kush and LSD-25. 600W LED, 18 hours on 6 hours off humidity is low approx 35 percent.

Harvested the Clones! I'm stoked how #4 grew out, I think she's the winner! With limited space in my grow, I'm only going to be able to bloom out the rest of the phenos clones to week 3-4.. The show must go on.. It's the price I must pay for using non-ideal cloning methods... Next round of phenohunting will have 100% cloning success, using my new aeroponics cloning machine.

9/3 Day 50 of the grow I cannot complain at all,reduced the nuet list to what they are getting from here out 9/5 Everybody always takes pics of their plants at their best thought it might help to see otherwise, well here they are at their worst. Dried out intentionally as part of last stage of flower, like to get them conditioned for drying. Five minutes later all happy again after the water. Fed Bio-Grow/Bio-Bloom/Karo syrup as a boost to bio 9/7 Re-adding Big Bloom (Fox Farms) to nuet mix, plants seem to be missing it and I agree. Once a week at 3 tps/gal 9/8 Fed each .75 gal full nuets Moved Becky and Ceila towards edges to lower light to them. Seem very sensitive to it but the other two are just soaking it up so moving them into the center. Pics later at lights out. Greatly preferring the dark leaf pheno (Anna and Deb) over the light leaf (Becky and Ceila), Have two of each and the first grow was also dark leaf. Plants are more compact, drink a little less, easier to maintain, and I think will end up producing at least as much as the larger sativa leaning plants. Some defoliation on all Changing nuet list add Fox Farm Happy Frog Cavern Culture 1-12-0 for the P think thats the nuet hole, three tablespoons top dressed one time application... for now. See how it goes

Día 5/10/20 día 29 de floración Acaba de amanecer un nuevo día y todo continúa bien. Seguimos alimentando las nenas con 1,6 de ec y 6,1 de ph. De momento el engorde no es abrumador pero si constante y si nada cambia obtendremos unas buenas flores!! Día 7/10/20 día 31 de floración Hoy nos vemos forzados a retirar algunas hojas que tapaban demasiada luz y que podríamos considerar sumideros de nutrientes. Por otro lado el riego de hoy ha sido solo de agua más zyco kleanse así prevenimos la sobrefertilizacion. Día 9/10/20 día 33 de floración Hoy preparamos un nuevo tanke de nutrición y lo hacemos a 1,75 de ec y a 6,1 de ph. En los siguientes días observaremos cómo se adaptan a esta nutrición x si tenemos que realizar cambios. No te lo pierdas!! Día 11/10/20 día 35 de floración Hoy te reina la semana 5 de floración y lo hacemos preparando un nuevo tanque de nutrición con el tanque totalmente limpio. La solución está a 1.8 ec, 6.1 ph y a 20 grados. La temperatura de la sala se mantiene a 23 6 la humedad al 47% para evitar la aparición de hongos en sus últimos días de maduración , algo que se puede apreciar en el avance de sus flores. No te lo pierdas!!

She was lagging a bit behind so I gave her a good dose of overdrive to give her a second wind for more bulking. Kicked in a 600hps for a wider spectrum. Decided to try Schwazzing. Pretty I'mpressed with this method. I highly recommend this!

Another good week!! I defoliated the smaller of the 2 plants mid-week... I think she is doing very fine. A small hiccup with the feed that same night. Only a few leaves are showing any sign on nutrient burn. I went ahead and fed them again today. I plan on watering them in a day or two... they were very thirsty this afternoon!! So, I definitely need to up the watering. I've still been feeding 3 quarts twice a week. Otherwise, all seems to be going well!! They are frosting up very nicely!! So exciting!! Peace!! Update for grow question: @The8thChevron thanks!!! I pulled them and will hope for the best for now. So close to the finish line. If I see more trouble brewing I will pull the plant. I don't know how to answer directly to you on the grow question.... Thanks again!!

All good :) very frosty and smells so good. She‘s so happy. At day 35 end of week 4 approaching week 5, i flush her to remove salt buildups since i didn’t had runoff the entire grow ever. She has crazy 2.6EC run off the ph is on the spot though. So lets see how will she react after heavy flush with runoff 1.6EC by week 5. i am now lowering my nuts half of the manufacturers recommendation.

The black cherry gushers has a really amazing smell I can’t put my finger on what it is but trust me. I also like the nodal spacing just a strong pretty plant for sure.

Both are really shooting up. I’m noticing a real difference between using 5 gal pots vs larger containers. Planter size has a huge impact on plant size as one would assume.. But, does it have any impact on quality? I guess we will find out in a few months. Again, learning and experiments. Sooo soo hot… was afraid they would show signs of fatigue but they were good..not really trying to push dry back too much in these temps 6/27 saw signs of caterpillars and accidentally broke off an upper branch

🌸 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.
