Helloo, planties are roughtly 3 week into vegetative growth. Into second week our cat snucked into the tent and being the motivated gardener she is, dug out quick one and speedy chille, we put them both back into place gave planties some water, and with time they recovered, speedy chille got most stress, but being photoperiod, recovered slowly aswell, still the shortest and very loved. :) so everythings good Royal kush has the strongest smell of them all, few leafs we defoliated we grind in our hard and smell a deep green canna scent. Northen lights is the leader in hight since begining When planties grew 5 tops we topped them, began doing LST and a bit of defoliation, bended stems away from the lamp and taking off leaf that blocks light reaching tops. The stems hardened and remind me now more of a tree

2 days into flower still not sure of any males in the mix. Keeping my fingers crossed. The females with the burgundy color show in the first 3 weeks of flower the dark purple veins in the leaves. So hope I get a few of those phenoms.

Week 16 From Seed | Lemon Cherry Gelato 🍋🍒 | Cure, Smoke Report & Closing Chapter Well… Here we are. Final chapter. And honestly, this one feels strange to write because somewhere along the way this stopped becoming “just another grow” and became one of those runs you genuinely remember afterward. First of all, as always lately, apologies again for dividing the reports into several parts. But honestly, with the amount of photos, macros, trimming sessions, drying observations, resin collection, curing experiments, root inspections, smoke notes, and documentation collected during this run… there was simply no realistic way to compress everything into one single update without losing important parts of the journey. And this final report deserves the full respect of the process. So for everyone arriving only now and jumping directly into the final week, quick recap: These Lemon Cherry Gelato girls were grown completely under 12/12 from seed. No long vegetative period. No giant training sessions. No extreme manipulation. Just allowing the genetics to express themselves naturally while documenting the entire process from seed to cure. And honestly? These girls delivered beautifully. Compact structure. Heavy flower stacking. Massive density. Ridiculous resin production. Loud terpene expression. Strong roots. Strong stems. And some genuinely beautiful medicine in the end. Across the previous reports we covered: - growth structure, - flowering behavior, - fading, - harvest, - drying, - trimming, - finger hash, - temple balls, - curing setup, - and storage methods. This final report becomes the real conclusion: The cure. The smoke. The chemistry. The experience. And the final transformation from plant into finished medicine. And honestly… This is where cannabis truly becomes complete. Because harvest is not the finish line. Drying and curing are not “extra steps.” They ARE part of cultivation. And I genuinely think many growers underestimate how much chemistry is still actively happening after harvest. Fresh flowers are biologically active material. They are still full of: - moisture, - chlorophyll, - sugars, - starches, - enzymes, - unstable volatile compounds, - and rapidly changing terpene structures. Drying removes free moisture slowly enough to preserve structure and prevent mold. But curing? Curing is where the flower actually matures. Where harshness softens. Where chlorophyll breaks down. Where terpene profiles settle. Where moisture equalizes internally. Where aromas stop smelling “green” and start smelling like the cultivar itself. Fresh flower smells like plant. Cured flower smells like genetics. And honestly… these girls cured BEAUTIFULLY. The smoke became incredibly smooth. Soft on inhale. Soft on exhale. Almost creamy sometimes. No harshness. No aggressive throat hit. No weird grassy notes. Just properly finished medicine. The terpene profile evolved into something honestly difficult to describe perfectly because it keeps shifting depending on the jar, humidity, breakdown, and even time of day. But if I had to describe the core experience: Sweet tropical woods. Fruits. Warm resin. Soft creamy backend. And this very specific pine-nut-like aroma. Not pine tree. Pine seeds. That soft oily nutty aroma you get when opening pine nuts mixed with tropical sweetness and woody resin. And honestly? If someone added pineapple to this profile, I would probably believe I was sitting somewhere in Hawaii or the Bahamas 😄 The aroma genuinely feels warm-weather tropical. Bright. Happy. Comfortable. And the effects follow that same direction perfectly. This is NOT sleepy medicine. Not couch-lock. Not knockout smoke. This is uplifting medicine. Euphoric. Social. Creative. Functional. Happy. The kind of flower that makes conversations easier. Music sound better. Nature feel more alive. Walks become longer. And random laughing suddenly happens for no reason 😄 Beautiful daytime or social medicine. Perfect for: - beach walks, - dinners with friends, - creative sessions, - gaming, - movies, - long conversations, - music, - and honestly just enjoying life a little slower. But definitely not the best choice if your goal is immediate sleep 😄 This one keeps the brain alive. Now let’s talk curing and storage properly because this became a huge part of the experiment too. We cured using both: - traditional glass jars, - and Grove Bags. And honestly, both systems worked beautifully when used correctly. Glass jars remain timeless for a reason: - reliable, - reusable, - visually satisfying, - easy for long-term inspection, - and perfect for manual burping routines. Meanwhile Grove Bags genuinely simplify moisture management dramatically by helping stabilize internal humidity exchange automatically when flowers are dried properly beforehand. And this is important: No storage system fixes bad drying. Curing starts during dry. That’s why environment matters so much: - stable temperature, - gentle airflow, - humidity control, - patience, - and avoiding overdrying early. Because once flowers overdry aggressively, you cannot truly reverse that damage completely. And yes… we went deep into the chemistry too 😄 Because the transformation happening during cure is honestly fascinating: - chlorophyll degrading, - harsh compounds softening, - volatile terpenes stabilizing, - cannabinoids slowly evolving, - oxidation pathways beginning, - moisture redistributing through the flower itself. Even THC slowly evolves over time depending on oxygen, heat, UV exposure, and storage conditions. Everything is chemistry. Everything keeps moving. And good curing is essentially controlled aging. Not old weed. Finished weed. That difference matters. The roots deserve a huge mention too because once the root balls finally came out after harvest, the entire watering behavior suddenly made complete sense. Beautiful root development. Healthy structure. Excellent substrate colonization. And honestly? You can usually understand the story of the plant better after harvest than during growth itself sometimes. The roots explain everything: - feeding behavior, - drinking behavior, - vigor, - recovery, - structure, - and overall plant energy. Massive respect to these girls. We also fully cleaned and reset the room afterward because post-harvest cleaning matters enormously too: - fans disassembled, - dust removed, - oils checked, - equipment cleaned, - surfaces sanitized, - UVC treatment, - airflow reset, - and the environment prepared for the next chapter. A clean room is part of prevention. And prevention is always easier than solving problems later. The finger hash and temple balls turned out beautiful too. Soft. Greasy. Easy to work. Extremely aromatic. The kind of resin that almost melts itself with body heat alone. And honestly, the photos documenting the curing stages of the resin are some of my favorite images from this entire series because you can literally SEE the transformation happening: - oxidation, - terpene movement, - grease development, - crystal structure changes, - texture evolution, - and the beginning of long-term curing. Living chemistry. And that’s probably the best way to describe this entire run honestly: Living chemistry. From seed… to roots… to flowers… to resin… to cure… to smoke. Everything connected. Final dry numbers also made me extremely happy: Plant 1: 304.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Plant 2: 163.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Final total: 468 grams dry manicured cured flower. And for a 12/12-from-seed run? Absolutely fantastic. Especially considering the compact size these plants actually occupied physically. Small footprint. Big output. Beautiful quality. Exactly the kind of run that teaches you not to underestimate genetics. And finally… Thank you. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron. To the LEDs. The gear. The jars. The environment. The tools. The platform. The community. To the old followers. The new people arriving now. The silent supporters. The lurkers. The growers learning quietly in the background. The skeptics. The lovers. Even the haters 😄 If somebody spent even a few moments following this journey, then they became part of it too. And of course… Thank you Mr. Baggy 💙😄 Still surviving somehow after another full season. This chapter closes here. But honestly… the cure keeps evolving. The hash keeps aging. The jars keep changing. And the medicine will probably keep surprising us for months.

Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Meine ersten Versuche.

Alles in allem top riecht auch vorrangig nach Käse bisschen sauer, bin auf den Geschmack gespannt. Wenn sie fertig getrocknet ist für's Grovebag dann wird auch wieder eine kleine vorab Kostprobe gemacht 👍 So nach ein paar Wochen aushärten is der Geschmack der Hammer 🙏💪. Vorwiegend Richtung Blueberry mit einem Unterton Cheese. Wirklich extrem lecker und die Bud-Struktur ist der Wahnsinn, sehr dichte und knüppelharte Knospen, sowas gutes hatte ich bisher ni, selbst in den Shops in den Niederlanden noch nie so harte und harzige Blüten bekommen. Absoluter Favorit bis jetz, großes Lob an Zamnesia für die geile Sorte👌 die wird auf jeden Fall wieder gemacht. Hab zum Glück noch 2 Samen und werd auch wieder welche nachbestellen wenn die leer sind 😄.

It's vegi week 4, and the two lemon ladies are doing splendidly. If they continue to grow like this, they should be ready to switch to the flowering stage by the end of week five.

Using Safer's brand End All insecticide for the aphids. Tested on D (brown) a couple days ago and seems ok. Used it on all 3 yeasterday and the population has definately dropped. Cleaned up the lower area near the main stem today. Moved around some LST. Looking at a bigger set up.

Day 10: The plants and the leafs grew a bit in size, they are still focusing on rooting. Added some veg nutrients today to the feeding schedule, because I saw some green spots, not to confuse with full green leafs, which is normal with new leafs and young plants or in later stage a (n)itrogen deficiency. No this indicates that they need just a little bit nutrients. Normaly this would not be the case with normal soil(it has nutrients in it for the first weeks), but again it can happen with cocos as a soil. The leafs on the pictures are like that because the lights are off + the humidifier makes the leafs wet which results in it getting heavy😝. Will update again this week, Enjoy for now 🙌

March 20, 2019: The girls have transitioned nicely into the flower room. I’m seeing them all start to stretch out and all showing definite signs of their femininity. The DinaMed CBD+ is still the tallest, but the CBD MediKush is catching up quickly. The 4 Cherry CBD Hemp plants are all smaller so far. But the Jobe’s fertilizer spikes seems fine so far. No signs of deficiencies or issues after the first week. Watering with living water (tap water with a few ounces of fish tank water mixed in per gallon) or just straight tap water (well water). The girls remaining in the veg tent are doing OK. They really need to be transplanted into larger containers. I’m going to go shopping this weekend looking for square nursery pots for transplanting into.

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

5 day flowering , deleted big leaves

May 15th We’ve had some tough winds. She handled it very well actually. Her stem bulked. Added a layer of coco on top to help with winds and to choke up on her stem May 25th she's small and bushy

So everything took off in flower, I was super harsh with the defoliating which initially I regretted, but was surprised with how they packed out during the following weeks. In general it's impressive how hardy these plants are. Even the outdoor grows yielded some quality. Add some more nuets (overdrive and carbo load), before flushing about 14 days before harvest, next time I'll do this earlier and really the Runtz could have gone another week but my drying needs to happen in the same space as my growing for now. Apologies for the quality of image, I'm just using my phone and some bits I have to document, I collect records too, so expect weird noises lol. Build a rotating plat from a lazt susan I found, has been the best piece of kit added this season.

SUNDAY 4/28: I plucked off some dead leaves and did some leaf-tucking. All 4 CC's are looking good and the big one is really starting to bud up now.👍 Daytime temps are still hovering around 87-90f, but I've got them sitting in 70-72f temps for 6 hours of darkness now.😁 I did a little video today and I'll take a few "glamour shots" tomorrow. MONDAY: Today I see a bunch of crispy leaves on one of the smaller ones..guess I phuktup the PH again because they are getting fed everything they need. I douched everybody with 1/3 gallon including some boomerang, calimag, bembe, bud candy, and terpinator. No time for glamour shots... TUESDAY: Not much time for gardening today..changed out carbon filters and cleaned out the evap cooler basins. WEDNESDAY: I took some photos after doing a little training on a few of them. I have some sort of contagion in the big tent..leaves suddenly getting brown and crispy overnight on a few plants. THURSDAY: The 'contagion' seems to be spreading through the garden... I'm thinking maybe I completely PHuktup the ph when I added silica last time and didn't correct it?? Not sure...but it's sad..they're all gonna be less than photogenic for the finish...😟 FRIDAY: I plucked some dead leaves and misted everybody with perfectly PH adjusted spring water and increased airflow in the tent. Also decreased the dehumidifier to 45% RH. So far, the biggest one is the least affected. SATURDAY: I fed them all today and started the big one on Cha Ching.

I don't know why she ain't flowering going to ask a few growers what's up

Day 7, they didnt all pop but most of them did I think 2 didnt break the surface. Theyll get another week or so in the cup while some space opens up then go into 3 gal bags for a quick veg

I cant war to grow this strain again. Next time we do a pheno-hunt on this strain.

Beautiful plant that went without feed for four weeks but still produces lovely bud. Very nice genetics, stand out plant for me on this multi strain run. Smells so good of lemons fresh from the garden. I can't wait to smoke some. I wonder how big she would have been on a proper run. Well I think after Christmas time has passed I will buy some more seeds and find out. This will be chopped soon and harvest pics of bud and weights will be posted. Very nice structure to this plant, exactly what I would look for, not so much leaf and predictable stretch.
