šæ Gelonade ā Week 4 Veg
Grower: Dogdoctor
Strain: Gelonade (Zamnesia Seeds)
Type: Feminized
Environment: Indoor Tent | Dual Zone | Full Spectrum LED | Full Control Ecosystem
āø»
š± The Plants: Branching, Glowing, Flourishing
Our Gelonade girls are THRIVING. Four weeks into veg and both phenos are showing off, with no signs of transplant stress and a burst of branching energy thatās filling out beautifully.
ā¢ Stems are strong, upright, and thickening nicely
ā¢ Leaves are broad, vibrant, and reaching
ā¢ Internodal spacing is tight ā perfect for shaping later
ā¢ Side branches are already declaring themselves
We took both beauties out for a special photoshoot this week. The studio lighting captured their posture, color, and symmetry, and letās just sayā¦ theyāre already stars. š
āø»
š§ Gear Check ā Ecosystem in Harmony
This grow is powered by tech and intention, a custom environment designed for precision and balance. Letās break it down.
š” Lighting:
Weāre running dual light ecosystems in an expanded 8x8 grow area:
ā¢ Future of Grow ā Black Series 600
ā¢ Full-spectrum, ultra-efficient, deep canopy penetration
ā¢ ThinkGrow Model One LED
ā¢ High PPFD uniformity, smart dimming, daylight-mimicking balance
Both are controlled via the TrolMaster system, allowing:
ā¢ Timed schedules
ā¢ Sunrise/sunset ramping
ā¢ Real-time PPFD monitoring
š Each light is tuned to deliver exactly what the plants need, no more, no less.
āø»
Sensors & Controllers
The TrolMaster Tent-X Controller is the brain of the operation ā feeding live data from sensors throughout the space:
ā¢ COā Sensor ā Ensures levels stay in the ideal range for vigorous veg
ā¢ Temp/Humidity Sensor ā Live VPD adjustments and historical tracking
ā¢ PPFD Sensor ā Calibrates light levels and spreads evenly across canopy
Everything is automated, or monitored manually as needed. This allows you to focus on plants, not guesswork.
āø»
š¬ļø Airflow & Filtration
Keeping the air clean, fresh, and moving is a core part of this grow. Hereās how it flows:
š Extraction:
ā¢ Two 6-inch exhaust fans with carbon filters:
ā¢ AeroFan 6ā ā Controlled by TrolMaster Tent-X
ā¢ Spider Farmer 6ā ā Controlled by GGS Controller
ā¢ Both extract stale, warm air through carbon filters, scrubbing it clean and odor-free before it leaves the tent.
Intake:
ā¢ 6-inch filtered intake fan constantly bringing in fresh, oxygen-rich air
ā Why Carbon Filters?
Even in veg, filters reduce:
ā¢ Dust & spores
ā¢ Unwanted scents
ā¢ Airborne pathogens
Itās not just about smell ā itās about clean air = healthy plants.
š¹ A video walkthrough is now included in the diary to show this airflow system in motion, stay tuned for a narrated version soon.
āø»
š§ Feeding This Week
The girls are still on the Aptus Veg Foundation Mix, focused on:
ā¢ Cellular strength
ā¢ Root expansion
ā¢ Balanced nutrient delivery
Feed Mix (per liter):
ā¢ Aptus Regulator ā 0.15 ml: Cellular support, heat resistance, uptake enhancer
ā¢ Aptus CalMag Boost ā 0.25 ml: Frame and photosynthesis building
ā¢ Aptus All-In-One Liquid ā 1 ml: Broad spectrum nutrition
ā¢ Aptus Start Booster ā 0.2 ml: Ongoing root + early leaf architecture support
š” Why keep Start Booster? Even at Week 4, it helps support the rapid branching phase and assists in developing feeder roots that stretch out horizontally.
āø»
š¼ Looking Ahead
Next week, weāll begin shifting the feed to support the pre-flower transition. Itās not flower time yet, but the plants will begin āaskingā for more energy and structural support soon. No rush, just flow.
Expect:
ā¢ More branching
ā¢ Thicker stems
ā¢ Early pre-flower signs (depending on light cycle)
Weāll be watching closely, letting the girls tell us when itās time.
āø»
š Itās Summer ā and So Is the Grow
The seasonal energy is flowing right into the tent. Life is pulsing. Roots are diving. Leaves are dancing in the air current. From animals outside to chlorophyll inside, everything is alive right now, and the Gelonade girls are right in rhythm.
This is the joy of veg: potential made visible.
āø»
š¬ Final Thoughts
This grow isnāt just about growing cannabis, itās about building systems, creating harmony, and telling the story of life through plants.
The Gelonade run is a flagship grow:
Precision gear, intentional care, vibrant phenos.
And above all, love in every step.
Weāre not just growing plants.
Weāre growing a garden of learning, beauty, and experience.
See you in Week 5 šæ
With leaflight and root-deep respect,
DD (Dogdoctor) š

After week 16 of this grow my 'Fruity Terps'-plants are ready to harvest. I check the trichome-heads with a handheld-microscope (magnification of 150, available in every growshop) and see that all have turned milky and some start to turn amber already. That means PEAK-THC (=all trichome-heads have turned milky) has been reached inside the trichome and it is time to harvest. If I would let them go longer now and continue to flower them, more of the trichome heads will turn amber as the THC breaks down again to other cannabinoids, and the effect of the cannabis will get more sedative when smoked. For some chronic pain patients this is what they want from their medicine, therefore it is advisable for them to let the weed flower than recommended.
The aroma coming out of the tent is STRONG and DELICIOUSLY FRUITY! š The fade from the flush has turned the bigger fan-leaves yellow or purple now, this shows the plant is using her own sugars now and has used up all nutrients saved inside her. That is exactly what I want, since a well flushed plant ensures a clean, smooth smoke when the buds are dried. This is my MEDICINE and I use it against my chranic back-pain from hernia, therefore I have to make sure I can consume my medicine as pure and clean as possible.
All my plants have grown big buds, which are glistening with TRICHOMES, the SANlight EVO4-120 LEDs did an OUTSTANDING JOB! In combination with the BIO NOVA nutrients, all plants THRIVED throughout the cycle and were able to grow healthy to their full potential.

Nun geht immer mehr mit den Buds doch leider wirkt auch der Mangel immer noch stark auf sie ein. Ich versuche weiterhin die Versorgung mit Komposttee zu gewƤhrleisten.

The gas tax x obama runtz is a disappointment so far just like my skunk apple runtz starting to realize how much work legit breeders actually put in to make a good strain. The plant liked being topped it just has not hit its stride yet it definitely going to be a skiny lady
The day has come and it's time to flip these ladies to flower. I was planning on letting them go untill Friday and let the smaller ones grow just a bit more but they will be fine. I have the eternity cup contest in mind and I'm thinking timing so I need to get these lady done and out my tent lol. This past week I turned the light up alot getting them ready to flower they have grown a bunch inhavendone lst maybe 5 it 6 times on the branchs and they arw nit bendy anymore that will help durring flower.

We updated the diary to 3rd week of flower, we had our timeline a little messed up but back on track..
This plant has been eating a ton, we feed with every watering now and there's been no protest..if fact we may increase due to light shade. The FC-E6500 is an absolute beast of a light, I'm so happy my husband finally made the purchase for us..with lower power consumption and higher yields; this light will pay for itself shortly. We've been talking about also getting a 5x5 so we can utilize its full light footprint...
..You might notice a cheap "blurple" LED hanging from the scrog table,we hung it there to add some weight. If its not clear to tell from the photos, this plant is completely overgrown, we definitely let this go for far too long but I'm excited to see what kind of yield we'll get (this is our highest yielding strain by far).. I would be shocked by anything less than 1lb.. We've had the FC-E6500 at 50-75% for the first 2 weeks of flower, we're leery on distance still and didn't want to chance burning but with no signs of stress we decided to move it up to 100% today and we'll monitor colesly for a few days.. We run 3 tents but temps are awesome since dumping all the HID in that room, this is something we should have done years ago..things are going so smoothly and we couldn't be happier..Thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø

She is sooooo overgrown lmao š¹.. Josh gave her a haircut yesterday to thin her out some..we have no idea how she'll finish but I think a trellis net is in her future.. we have the FC-E6500 at 100% strength now and no signs of stress or burning to this point, this light is simply amazing..we may purchase a 5x5 so we can utilize its entire footprint..things are going awesome (albeit messy) but we'll update if anything changes..thanks Growmies, much love! ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø

day 9:
the roots start to come out of the netpot slowly (see picture)
the water level is 1 inch under the netpot, the bubbles make the roots wet.
nothinh much to do here just waiting for water change.
the ph has gone up to 6.0
maybe because of the rockwool touching the water when the water level was higher. in the next days i expect the roots to go in the water
day 11 (december 15)
roots com trough net and i did water change with double strength (507ppm)
calmag to around 200 and 100ppm of each three part bottle

She is also experiencing a general yellowing all over. I contacted Advanced Nutrients support and they consulted me to increase the feeding. Letās see how it goes.
On the other hand, she keeps growing buds. Looks like stunned a little. Thatās why I am waiting another 2 days for lollipoping.

Gracias al equipo de Seedsman y XpertNutrients sin ellos esto no serĆa posible.
šš Bubba Cheescake:
Bubba Cheesecake es un cruce de Bubba Kush anterior al 98 con Cheese Cake (Wedding Cake x Exodus Cheese). Se trata de un hĆbrido 70% Ćndica con muy buenos rendimientos, alto en THC y bajo en CBD. Bubba Cheesecake prospera en interiores y exteriores. En interior se aconseja un corto periodo de crecimiento vegetativo debido a la cantidad de estiramiento que presentan las plantas. Las plantas pueden crecer hasta una altura de 250 a 350 cm. cuando se deja crecer naturalmente al aire libre. En interior, la floraciĆ³n dura entre 60 y 65 dĆas, con rendimientos entre buenos y altos, de 400 a 550 gr/m2. Las plantas de exterior son capaces de producir entre 700 - 800 gr. peso seco. En las latitudes norteƱas, en exterior, los productores pueden esperar cosechar a principios de octubre. Los cogollos son grandes y duros como piedras. Las plantas maduras muestran atractivos colores pĆŗrpuras y azules y brillan con una resina pegajosa que cubrirĆ” las manos del cultivador si no tiene cuidado. El componente Wedding Cake agrega dulzura al sabor del regaliz y el aroma es terroso y musgoso. La producciĆ³n de THC es muy alta con un nivel bajo de CBD. El efecto es intensamente narcĆ³tico, fuerte y duradero.

******** Week 7 - January 20 to 26, 2020 (Days 43 to 49 from germination)
She continuers to impress with her resilience as I have thrown a couple of curves at her.......but she continues to fatten and grow her budsš It was also not without learning though and thats what is so cool about growing this plant.......you always seem to leave a grow feeling like you could do even better next time and therefore challenging yourself to do better......and have dab while doing itš
Not sure if I have a little different pheno but if I ran her again I would find a way to train her out wider. 5 gal pot diameter idea........maybe donāt fill with as much medium? Again, simply to keep light hitting all the lower sites. Where does the āXLā come into play as well I guess. Removed branches early on that were low. This grow, her narrow leaves have allowed a lot of light down below but it will be felt in a little less yield.....think the pH got a little high....or potassium excess......Terpinator too early? If left to a single cola she would be tall and have a huge cola I suspect......Gorilla Grow with the extension type of potential! She has loved the water feeds. Missed out bit by backing off of the CalMag a bit too much.....stems say deficiency that but leaves show toxicity? (Back to that you always feel you can do better thingš¬)
Got a little crazy with the PPM and saw tip burn in week 7. Gave a quick little flush with RO water and Sensyzime to clean up the roots of the salts. Didnāt get crazy though because it was just the top leaves burnt. Been building the medium up to this point so donāt want to wash it all away just yet. She didnāt claw down and over night appeared to still keep moving forward with bud growth.
I did notice a small amount of hairs starting to turn red by weeks end......likely wonāt be long before more are red and we go to flushš (Make it to end of week 8??) No rush though.......still lots of room to fatten up yet.
In the week a head there will be the last push to get her medium in as good a shape as my skills will warrant. I want to get a good 10 + days of flush but her leaves are going to finish dark from what I can see. Run-off has been reasonable though so will keep fingers crossed šš¤
Little more detail....
Jan 20/20 - Day 43
- Drinking lots right now, close to 4L per day, so 2L plain water only in AM. 6.2pH,.
- Feed in PM was light as well. Sensyzime @ 2ml and LW8 & Rezin @ 1.5ml only. 2L given with 75ppm. 5.9pH
- She was given a good feeding yesterday.
- Buds sites are stacking.......she is making me š
Jan 21/20 - Day 44
- AM - 3L with Dual Fual A&B @ 1.5ml/L. 725ppm and 5.9pH.
- PM hit her again - full feeding minus Rhino Skin, Sensyzime and Vitrathrive and VeloKelp. 2.5L 1000ppm and 5.9pH.
- Runoff - 1100ppm and 5.9pH.
- top leaves were droopy so the extra feeding in the evening.
Jan 22/20 - Day 45
- Backing off quantity a bit and down to 2L feed in PM. Her pot was still fairly heavy.
- Mass & Terp @ 3ml, Rezin & LW8 & DF @ 1.5ml, CalMag @ 0.5ml = 1300ppm
- Very perky today....standing up all the way down the plant. Liked the feed yesterday.
*******should have reduced this PPM feed......you want to push when you see potentialš
Jan 23/20 - Day 46
- Supplemental feeding only today. Happy so don't rock the boat :)
- Sensyzime @ 2ml, LW8 & Rezin @ 1.5ml = 80ppm 6.1pH
- 2L only today.....still some weight to the pot
Jan 24/20 - Day 47
- Nute burn on Green Poisonās tips seen today.
- Flushed through 7L of plain RO water pH to 5.95. - Runoff: 325ppm and 5.9pH.
- Followed right away with 2L more water with Sensyzime @ 3ml/L
- happy and praying in the evening......little surprising actuallyšš
Jan 25/20 - Day 48
- 2.5L of full strength feeding for this week.
- ppm for that was 1275 so watered down to 1100ppm.....only need 1ml of base nutes at full strength to hit roughly 1,000ppm.
- Runoff: 600ppm & 5.95pH
- Swear her leaves are bigger, more mass today!! Still narrow and dark though.
- she is 30ā x 30ā now
Jan 26/20 - Day 49
- Feed was full strength one for the week, 1150ppm 6.1pH.
- Removed some more leaves today.
- guessing only another 1.5 weeks of feeding.
Happy growing fellow enthusiasts and thanks for the time to readšš
