Green Gelato #2 by Magnetous

Magnetous_tryko Hi all! Here we go again with the green gelato! This time I followed the specs from BioTabs regarding startrex, mycotrex, bactrex and orgatrex but not regarding silicum flash and the tabs! I just added 25g (0.8oz) of silicum to the pot and I'll wait till week 3 to add the tabs. All the rest didn't change and I'll put the hardware list down here. 60x120 (2x4) blackbox PrimaKlima 220/360 m3/h extractor (always on switch 1) pushes air in Green filter CH10 (entrance, passive exit) So yes I filter air coming in but not going out. I don't have any need for odor control :-D 1 secret jardin 20w fan 2x 180W COB led lights 2x 15L airpots Winflex temp and humidity tester And the top of soil, Bio Canna Bio Terra Plus

Magnetous_tryko Hi all! Nothing really new this week! The lady is fine! Didn't put the tabs in yet but may do so next week as I spot what could be the beginning of a brightening of the leaves. Those indicas could get quite hungry soon. So not much more to say for this week. Cya soon!

Magnetous_tryko Hi all! It's been eleven days since my last update and all the girls have greatly increased in size! GG received one tab end of this week and she regained a bit of darkness witch is nice. My main concern is the low temps coming in this days. I already have temps below 20°C / 68°F during the day so I think I will have to take care of the soil microbial life by wrapping a hot cable around the pots. I may be doing it first week of December. Also i have to start lst very soon! I already waited too much and the branches are quite stiff! I noticed a funny mutation on one of the fan leaves. I already had buds in the middle of it but this time it is kind of a leaf inception... the tips of a new leaf are coming out of the center of a fan leaf! I'll do some macros of this next week. So for now everything looks fine! No signs of over or under feeding! Hope this will last! Cya soon!

Magnetous_tryko Hi all! Got some more weird stuff for you this week! My green gelato has a few mutations going on not only one! First note that the leaves where brightening a bit to much for my taste so I put in a tab splitted in 4 to make it more even. The plant regained quickly some darkness, way before the two weeks expected for the tab to chelate. Except this nothing has changed in the feeding, Ro water and some cal/mag. So last week I showed you the leaf inception on one of the bigger fan leaves. It turns out that every "floor" has it's own mutation on the fan leaves so you will see at the lower internode that a complete leaf is growing at the center of the big one. A very tiny leaf I even didn't notice before. Then you have that internode with the two leaves growing in the middle. Then continuing higher you have another piece of leaf still growing at the center of another bigger one! Had to do some macro shots of all this mutations! Sadly the top leaves will be cut of when I top the plant but the other will stay for a few more weeks. Apart from this and as you will notice I started the training on her, let the fun begin!! Cya!

Magnetous_tryko Hi all! Quick update here! The ladies seem to enjoy the tabs! One week after defoliation she is already filled the gaps. I may start to see a little interveinal chlorosis on some newer leaves, I'll have to monitor this! The cause of this chlorosis on young leaves, as I'm sure it's not P or K excess, may be a lack of immobile micro nutrients like iron, boron, sulfur and zinc to name only a few. I keep a bottle of Acti-vera from biobizz for those issues and we will see if I need o use it. Also the temperatures are dropping now and I will probably have to take out the heating wires soon to help bacterias do their thing. She will be switched into flower by the end of week 8 with two more lights added. Cya next week!

Magnetous_tryko Hi all! So here I am back at updating this diary! Sorry for the gap there will be after week 8 but I had to deal with ugly things in my life so I did what I could! This grow will end up being one of the worst for me! Issues showing up on the plants, no tools to make a proper diag, no time to deal with it and really not in the good mood for growing overall. So this is the 8th week and last of veg. Definitely missing some micros but at this point I had no way to know if it way due to high PH or lack of nutes. Cya in 10 week! 😓

Magnetous_tryko Hi all! I actually forgot I took those pictures week 15! I remember how amazed I was by the size of the trichomes on this lady! She was starting to recover nicely. Keep in mind she has been stunned for a while so she is a bit late on the schedule but she was doing her thing quietly. Seriously I think those are the biggest trichomes I grew so far... quite impressive! I was so focused on the trichomes I didn't actually take one pic of the whole plant lol. But more pics coming on week 17, stay tuned. Cya!

Magnetous_tryko Hi all!! Finally a decent update! She is taking her time to finish but she is becoming a beautiful plant! She stayed quite smaller than expected and the buds are also quite small but hey I can't be disappointed as she went through some serious stresses during her life. She should take one or two weeks extra lifetime. RQS says 9 weeks of flower, she will need 11 or 12. Anyway the buds are super frosty and dense! The smell is great! Can't wait to vape her!

Magnetous_tryko As you may know this grow session was probably the worst for me due to personal issues but this lady managed to put out some nice buds and flavors so can't be more happy! See you all for the next episode with more amazing RQS strains!!!
