Everybody was ready for harvest around day 60 of flower except this stubborn bitch. The Lemon Snow Cone still isn’t mature. Trichomes look close but bracts are still slim. Will have to chop in the next few days regardless. Very Super Lemon Haze buzz from the genetics. Sherbet punch yield: 4 Oz Harlequin yield: 4 Oz Gelato yield: 3 Oz LSC yield... gonna be at least 6 Oz once it’s dry.

Have harvested most of the Harlequin (day 56) switched to 10/14 and snipped the longest branches on the sherbet punch and gelato. No more DE soil amendments. I’ve been fighting high ph since it started to enter the solution.

5 years ago

Just ripening. Did a little fan leaf trimming leading up to harvest. Day 54 of flower. All but the lemon tree look just about ready. Close ups are: Gelato Lemon Snow Cone

5 years ago

Just tea today @ 6.1. 11/13. Phosphorous deficiency in the lemon snow cone. Added bloom and low ph. Problems are minimal, just documenting. Now is when saving leaves in veg pays off. This is a lemon bud. Lower leaves have absorbed most of the effects of the deficiency.

5 years ago

Week 7 flower. 11/13. Still working on high ph from the diatomaceous earth. Watering tomorrow between 5.8-6.0. Small issues here and there but nothing affecting bud size or harvest.

5 years ago

Week 7 flower switched to 11 light/13 dark Harlequin Gelato Lemon snow cone Sherbet punch

Week 6 flower.

5 years ago

Rearranged a little. Harlequin doesn’t want much light or water.

5 years ago

Day 35 flower. 12/12. Week 5 nutes at 6.2.

5 years ago

Week 5 flower. 12/12 now and the light stress is mostly gone after just one reduced light period. Planned to water today as they’ve been dry consistently after two days but they seem to be slowing down on consumption. Will wait until tonight or tomorrow morning at least. Other than that... wow, that’s a lot of weed lol. Lower leaves yellowing on lemon snow cone and sherbet punch. Can’t wait til these start to bulk up!

5 years ago

Day 33 of flower. Switched back to 12/12 as top plant leaves are twisting and they seem over saturated with light at 13/11. Everything else looks fantastic. Very fruity crop. Only faint hints of pepper, funk, earthiness, etc.

5 years ago

Week 5 of flower. 13/11. Was away for a few days and dark temps got down to 60. They seem to not mind. Fed week 5 nutes at 6.2. Close up order: Gelato Lemon Harlequin Sherbet Punch

5 years ago

Week 5 flower. 13/11 light dark. Fed at 6.1 runoff at 7.0 due to diatomaceous earth amendment entering solution. Started around week 3 of flower. So’tD Sherbet Punch. Don’t remember reading about either parent doubling during the stretch or getting 6’ tall indoors, but here we are. I think the brown pistils are from light/heat stress. Only the couple buds directly under the light look that way.

5 years ago

Day 27 of flower. 13/11. Watered this morning with compost tea and week 4 flower nutes at 6.1. Lady Gelato is looking promising.

5 years ago

Day 25 of flower. 13h on/11h off.

5 years ago

They’re getting a little light stress so moving the lights up some more. Right side is gonna require a rerigging if I need to raise it higher. Plain water today at 6.2. Close up is Gelato.

5 years ago

Week 4 of flower. 13h Light/11h Darkness. Little bit of tip burn but that’s about it. This is when growing multiple strains starts to get more labor intensive. I.e. The Harlequin needs more cal-mag and less npk than the gelato or the sherbet punch. Full plant is gelato 33 and the close up is Harlequin which is surprisingly frosty for a high CBD strain.

5 years ago

Day 22 of flower. Still @ 12.5 hours of light to 11.5 hours of darkness since week 3 of flower. Fed week 4 nutes in water @ 6.3. Close up is Lemon Snow Cone. We have the Lemon Tree pheno and the smells are maturing. Starting to get the sweet esters of Lemon and grape and tropical fruits from the garden. Yum! 🍋 🌲 🍇 🥊 🍨 🥭

5 years ago

Fed H2O at 6.0 Close up is baby trichomes on the Gelato plant. Day 20 of flower.

5 years ago

Day 20 of flower. 12:30/11:30 light cycle. Thinned out a few handfuls of fan leaves today. Things look good. Ph has been drifting up too much so next water will be 6.2.

5 years ago

Week 3 of flower. Did a little pruning to help these ladies fit well. Fed Extreme Tea with week 3 nutes at 6.6. So’tD is Gelato. All of the strains are seriously building buds now.

5 years ago

Flower day 17. Increased light period to 12h30m/decreased dark period to 11h30m. Gelato is stretching now but I think we’re gonna fit in the tent lol. Close up is the sherbet punch who not only grew the biggest plant, but obviously has a head start on bud size as well.

5 years ago

Week 3 12/12. Hopefully the stretch doesn’t last too much longer... Close up is Gelato

5 years ago

Week 2 12/12. Rearranged a little. Running out of boxes to stack everything but the sherbet punch on. Watered with week 2 Hybrid flower nutes at 6.6.

5 years ago

Week 2 12/12. Little super topping to slow the sherbet punch down. 3/4 plants are ready to be watered again already. So’tD is Gelato #33. Excited for two months from now!

5 years ago

Week 2 12/12. Gnat traps are pretty much empty. Thought the ladies might get pissed at me cause the run off was 7.0 last night, but it looks like they’re pretty happy. Next water will be 6.5. Didn’t mean for it to drift so high. So’tD is Lemon Snow Cone. Stacking nicely. Not at all like the sherbet punch back left. 🤦🏽‍♀️

5 years ago

Fed last night. Noticed one or two fungus gnats. Not sure yet if they’re laying eggs in the fabric pots or made their way through the rice hull mulch. I threw up some yellow stickies and will let the pots dry as much as I possibly can before next water. Prob 3 days. So’tD is Gelato #33. Been awhile.

5 years ago

Think it’s 12/12 Day 9. Looking super. So’tD is Lemon Snow Cone 🍋 🍧 😋

5 years ago

Looking fantastic. At least 12 hours, maybe 24 before next watering. Hairs are from Miss Harlequin and Sherbet Punch.

5 years ago

And then there were 4. Back left: Sherbet Punch Front left: Lemon Snow Cone Back right: Gelato #33 Front right: Harlequin

5 years ago

Watered tonight. 25 gallons of soil held about 8 gallons of water. 1/2 extreme tea, 1/2 molasses water. Vegamatrix flowering nutes week 1 plus protekt to raise ph up to 6.8. Still no definitive sex on the regular seeds :/ So’tD is sherbet punch ‘cause dayum.

5 years ago

Day 5 of 12/12. Feminized strains are showing hairs but the regular seeds are all taking their sweet time. So’tD is Strawberry Snow Cone. Needed to show someone an example of when it’s good to prune a little vs chopping all the “sucker” leaves off her plants.

5 years ago

Day 4 of flower. Seems almost impossible I popped these guys less than 50 days ago. Good thing for forums like this. The learning curve is steep. Chopped the last extra plant today so we’re legal. One of each strain unless somebody ends up with balls.

5 years ago

Day 3 of 12/12. Fed today. Still waiting for a set of balls to pull somebody so still 7 plants. 4 on the right, 3 on the left. Sherbet Punch and Gelato have hairs easily visible. Last pic is Harlequin trying to make sure I have some sort of problem to deal with lol.

5 years ago

Flipped the lights off for 12 hours yesterday. I’ll call today day 2 of flower. So’tD is Sherbet Punch ‘cause dayum.

5 years ago

They’re YUUUUGE and I can’t wait to flip these any longer or I’m gonna run out of room. LSD 1963 is the So’tD. This is the pheno they suggest you run with. Has a chai spice aroma. The buds from my last plant were much fruitier. Excited to see how this lady turns out.

5 years ago

Week 5 nutes this morning at 6.7. Topped the sherbet punch and lsd again to keep em from outgrowing the tent. Planning to switch to flower Monday. Keeping lumens ~27000 by leveling the canopy and adjusting light height.

5 years ago

Lookin good.

5 years ago

One week til flip. Still have 7 as preflowers have been hard to come by. Will still cull one more once they show sex. Gave plain water this morning.

5 years ago

Gave nutes today but only half Grow and no Bloom for week 4 Vegamatrix. I have 1/3 coco loco in the soil mix and they don’t need the extra npk. Added 1tbls molasses per gallon, 1/2 protekt silica amendment, and a “squirt-in” compost tea at 6.7. Foliar fed micronutrients, compost tea, and the 2x weekly “hard-n-quick” Strain today is Strawberry Snow Cone. She’s been wimpy and slow but I think I’m getting her dialed in. Well... hope she’s a she...

5 years ago

Think the sherbet punch doubled in size again overnight.

5 years ago

Fed plain water last feed and they seem to appreciate it. Close up is Sherbet Punch. Wicked node.

5 years ago

Getting close to flipping. Another week or so.

5 years ago

They’re less mad at me today. Strain O the Day is Harlequin. Hadn’t taken a close up of her yet. Note for future Harlequin grows: it probably would have topped itself. Blows my mind how much farther along I am at 5 weeks from seed this round. Proof that practice makes a difference.

5 years ago

They’re looking a little shocked from the last water. Will drift back down toward 6.2. One more will be culled before flower.

5 years ago

Uppotted everyone even though they’re not getting sexual yet. Things were moving along so well this grow I didn’t want to hold them back any longer with the 1ga pots. They seem to find bigger pots quite agreeable. This is a 5’x5’ tent.

5 years ago

Have some showers but no growers yet. Getting close!! Pic is from the biggest LSD. Fingers crossed for a girl! Added second CMH light today because of the height differences and the impending switch to flower.

5 years ago

And then there were 10... working my way down to the state limit before I start flowering. Culled the weaker feminizes plants and moved the best candidates up. The rest need to be uppotted now. Roots are starting to circle. May have to bite the bullet and move them all up since they aren’t showing sex yet. Strain o the day is the Sherbet Punch. It’s a monster... that’s a month from seed.... not everyone is thriving as much but this one is fun to watch.

5 years ago

No preflowers at all yet :/ I need to uppot these but I don’t want to waste it on any males. #1stWorldProblems Strain O the Day is Lemon Snow Cone cause I haven’t posted one yet. If you see preflowers, let me know!!

5 years ago

And then there were 12. State limits and shit.

5 years ago

Pulled a couple I’m likely to cull to see if they were becoming root bound. Just a little circling around the bottom on one and tons of healthy, white, fluffy roots growing straight down. Trying to wait until they show sex before I uppot and waste the expendables but they may be ready for more soil sooner than they’re sexually mature :/ Strain o the Day today is a Harlequin. I’m pretty happy with the size of these fan leaves. Wish I knew what I was doing wrong on previous grows.... other than ph swings, over pruning, overwatering, and no silica amendments :)

5 years ago

Foliar spray helped the Strawberry strain. Who knows? It’s getting plenty of moist soil, but only responded to foliar feeding. They’re growing quickly now. Will uppot to their final pots in the next few days.

5 years ago

Vegging. Strain o the Day is the Strawberry Snow Cone with its wimpy and discolored leaves.

5 years ago

Tea with nutes this morning. PH @ 6.8. Measured run off and it was below 6.0. Normal for organic nutrients. Plan to keep watering at the high end ~6.8 to compensate. Strain o the day is LSD again cause it’s the only one with 9 petal fan leaves already.

5 years ago

Week 2 Vegamatrix nutes this morning. Trying “LST only” on my Sherbet Punch #1 and Gelato #2. Hoping to get the effects of topping without the stress and retarded growth. I intend to top some/most about a week after I uppotted to 1ga pots. Gelato and Sherbet Punch are both feminized so less concerned about them needing to be culled later.

5 years ago

Uppotted to 1 gal. They were droopy for just a few hours before they were right back on track. Strain close up is LSD 1963.

5 years ago

Went under the 315w CMH last night. Will move to 1 ga pots today or tomorrow. Best looking seedlings I’ve managed so far. Hopefully a good grow.

5 years ago

Getting close to uppotting. These little peat pots are a PITA. Gonna use plastic from now on. Vegamatrix works like a champ!! I add protekt, molasses, compost tea, and mycos. Let (or make) the ph drift between 6.2 and 6.8.

5 years ago

Thought this might be the beginning of the uppotting window but def gonna wait a while longer.

5 years ago

Dipped the pots in compost tea today. Added about 50g of water to each.

5 years ago

Pretty good overall. Repotted Gelato #2 and need to keep an eye on it. Strawberry Snow Cone #2 had to be helped out of its seed shell and is def runty. (Second from right, back row) Errybody else looks like they’re coming along.

5 years ago

Looks good.

5 years ago

Things look good. Environmentals are pretty stable. They’re stretchy, but it’s not my fault! They have plenty of light 24/0 and the sun during the day. Also blowing a fan on them lightly part time.

5 years ago

Looks like 15/17 made it to the seedling stage. Couple Lemon Snow Cone seeds never showed any signs of life but everyone else made it just fine.

5 years ago

2x Lemon Snow Cone hadn’t budged at 72 hours so they’re the first to go. Everything else has germinated. Up potted everything as the seedlings emerged. Started with 17 seeds. 15 seedlings now. Planning for not more than 9 for my 5’x5’ tent by the time I start flowering.

5 years ago

Good numbers. 3/3 Gelato, 2/2 Harlequin, 2/2 Sherbet Punch, 1/2 LSD, 2/3 Strawberry Snow Cone, 3/5 Lemon Snow Cone... so far. 48 hours and counting.
