Kweekverslag: 4 x Spliff Seeds Gelato
Instellen
Zaden: 4 x Spliff Seeds Gelato (indica-dominante hybride, Sunset Sherbet × Thin Mint GSC-lijn)
Potten: 11 liter kunststof potten
Medium: Standaard potgrond (geen extra perliet of wijzigingen)
Tent: 120 × 120 × 200 cm (4 × 4 ft)
Verlichting: Bestva Pro 4000 LED (volledig spectrum, 3000K + 5000K + 660 nm + 730 nm IR) – hangt op ±45 cm boven de luifel
Lichtschema: Week 1-4 veg = 18/6, daarna flip naar 12/12
Temperatuur: 24-26 °C dag / 18-20 °C nacht
Vochtigheid: 55-65% veg → 50-55% bloei
Watergift: handmatig, pH 6,2-6,5, alleen water + Cal-Mag indien nodig
Week 4 Vegetatief (einde groeifase)
De 4 planten zijn supercompact en bossig – precies zoals je van Gelato had verwacht. Gemiddelde hoogte: 38-46 cm (plant 1 en 3 iets groter door betere hoek naar de LED).
Dikke, donkergroene waaiervormige bladeren met perfecte internode-afstand (±4-5 cm).
Goede vertakking vanaf de 3e knoop, al 6-8 zijtakken per plant.
Geen inspanning, geen tekortkomingen, geen gele randjes – de potgrond was perfect tot nu toe.
Luifel is mooi vlak, LED dekt de hele 120×120 perfect (geen hotspots).
Geur: nog bijna niks, alleen een heel licht aards/zoet ondertoontje als je de bladeren kneust.
Alles zag er top uit, dus ik heb op dag 28 van de groei direct geflipt naar 12/12. Geen training gedaan (geen LST/SCROG), pure bush-stijl.
Overgang & Bloei in week 1
Direct na de flip begon de typische Gelato-stretch. In de eerste 7 dagen bloei zijn de planten ±10-15 % gegroeid (eindhoogte week 1: 45-55 cm).
Eerste witte pistillen overal zichtbaar vanaf dag 4-5, vooral op de hoofdcola en de verhoogde zijtakken.
Toppen wordt al wat dikker en begint licht te “swellen”.
Bladeren blijven donkergroen en gezond, geen klauwen van branden.
Geur: vanaf dag 6-7 ruik je het al duidelijk – zoet, romig, met een hint van bessen en een heel licht gasachtig/munt-achtergrondje. Typisch gelato!
Waterbehoefte iets essentieel (nu ±1,5-1,8 liter per pot om de 2-3 dagen).
LED nog steeds op 45 cm, lichtintensiteit perfect (geen bleken).
Algemene observaties & tips voor deze opstelling
4 planten in 120×120 met 11L potten is ideaal: genoeg ruimte voor de bossige Gelato-structuur zonder dat ze elkaar verstikken.
Bestva Pro 4000 presteert uitstekend in deze tent – gelijkmatige dekking, geen dode hoeken.
Potgrond houdt het prima tot week 3-4 bloei, daarna waarschijnlijk starten met licht PK-boost (Gelato is een zware feeder in bloei).
Verwachtte bloeitijd: 8-9 weken (56-63 dagen) volgens Spliff Seeds info. De uiteindelijke hoogte wordt waarschijnlijk 80-110 cm.
Opbrengstverwachting met deze opstelling: 450-650 gram droog totaal (realistisch voor 4 gezonde meisjes onder deze LED).
Tot nu toe een gemakkelijke, stressvrije kweek. De planten zien er gelukkig uit en de geur begint al lekker te worden. Ik hou het verder in de gaten en update

dry weight of buds after trimming = 93 gram and about 5 gram of Trim so 98g Total.
Actual plan was to leave the plant some more days but after seeing some Nanas developing inside the buds i decided to cut it at day 65 of flower.
great smell and cant wait to smoke the final product. All in all definetly a good strain for living soil.

Day 1-2
All plants topped, defoliated and lollipopped. Getting ready for the last stages of outdoor veg. Spring has cause the plants to be very leggy so topping, defoliating and lollipoping will help the plants through the final weeks of veg getting more bushy and pushing more energy to the tops. Clones taken. Plants sprayed with lost coast to help prevent bacteria or fungus infections aswell as mite preventions as all the mites are now gone. *knocks on wood*.
Preventative spraying will continue.
Day 3
Sunny 89* - 68% Humidity - slightly windy
Nice sunny day and the plants seem to be recovering from yesterday’s abuse and everybody is praying.
Watering two times a day now as the heat is on!
Day 4
Only watering conducted.
Give thanks.
To be continued……..

Week 3
By week three, the plant begins to show a clearer structure. Leaf size increases slightly, and the stem thickens just enough to support the growing foliage. Internodal spacing remains tight, reinforcing its compact growth pattern. The plant still lags behind others in height and spread, but its overall appearance remains healthy and controlled. There are no visual deficiencies, and growth continues steadily, if modestly.

Start of Week 11 - Day 71
07/12: It seems as if Annie’s stretch is slowing down. She’s now at about 30” tall and she has a lot of colas poking out from her base. Aaliyah and Alexis have stopped their height at 34”. Alexis’s buds are starting to get bigger. The buds in Aaliyah’s main cola are starting to connect and are also getting bigger. Aaliyah’s bigger buds are also getting coated in trichomes. The smell is still pretty minimal. Based on the visual changes it appears that Alexis is about a week behind Aaliyah and Annie is about three weeks behind Aaliyah. Since this is my first grow I’m not too sure on harvesting time, but I’d say Aaliyah will be ready first and she still has a few weeks left in her. They are losing some leaves closer to the base, but they are looking amazing overall. It’s hard to believe it’s been 70 days since I put the seeds in water. Time really flies.
07/16: Playing the waiting game and it isn’t easy, but it will be worth it. The ladies are at different stages of flowering, so I’ve decided that next week I’m going to start giving them different doses of nutrients.

26.12.24:
I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves.
To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants.
After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6.
I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes!
29.12.24:
So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small.
I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process.
Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Day 43 - The start of week 7 and she’s doing great and the purple is starting to show up pretty nicely now. She’s doing good since tying down some branches yesterday and will let her grow up as much as she wants now. Should be ready for some water tomorrow.
Day 44 - Really starting to push out some purple. Gave her some water today, soil was completely dry. Just watching her as she starts to stretch a bit and might give some bone meal once she hits day 60, depending on how she’s doing.
Day 45 - Not a whole lot happening right now, she’s looking good and starting to put on a lot a purple and loving it. Tucked a few leaves to keep her open.
Day 46 - Nothing interesting going on with the girl right now. She’s filling in nicely and the purples look amazing. Probably another day or two before giving her some fresh water.
Day 47 - Looking good and dropped the light to about 10” the other day and it really seems to be helping her bud up more. Pot is just about dried up so will be giving her some water tomorrow.
Day 48 - She’s doing well, noticed a few lower leaves are becoming very light in color but all the rest seem to be doing ok. Not sure if I need to add another batch of bone meal to the soil or if she just needed a good watering so she got watered to runoff tonight and I’ll keep an eye on her for the next few days. Other than that, her bud sites are really starting to purple up.
Day 49 - It’s the end of week 7 and getting a little worried about this girl and not sure what’s going on. Yesterday she looked great and all of a sudden today, all of her leaves have turned a really light shade of green. This soil is not supposed to need nutes but I’m thinking no nutes is good for veg but I need to add them for flowering so I went and gave her a feeding of the foxfarm trio with some cal-mag and I’ll give it a couple days to see if it helps. Buds are producing nicely but leaves look like they’re dying so hopefully the feed helps.

So another week and some more thickening and ripening. The smell is like blueberry on one and the others are sweet as well. Slightly different smell to each. Watering when dry still at pH 6-6.6 and monitoring overall plant trichomes. At this point it's autopilot to the end. No more feeding with slow release and will slowly flush the remaining food out next few weeks. I like my trichomes to have some amber, not too much but mostly cloudy with some amber. Seems like most will be dense, except one plant I've called corona virus. It has smaller buds but are really resinous and smelly. Cheers and happy growing!

alles läuft bestens soweit.
nachdem mir ein Bekannter den Tipp gab das unser Wasser hier eher weniger gut ist und das ich den Calcium-Magnesium Wert anpassen sollte.
Also Bittersalz und Calmag besorgt und von nun an die Nährstofflösung/Gießwasser angleichen.

🌸 Week 3 Flower — Bud stacking begins! 🌸
This week was a turning point — stretch finally slowed down and the plants are now fully focusing on bud formation. The tent started getting really humid due to the extra leaf mass and transpiration 🌿💦. That’s when I realized: a dehumidifier is a must. Without it, RH would climb over 70%, which is dangerous at this stage.
Temperatures are still steady (27°C day / 20°C night), but now I’m working on dropping humidity to ~55–60% for safer flowering.
Nutrient-wise, I reduced nitrogen even more, focusing on PK boosters and bloom nutrients. Bud sites are stacking nicely, pistils are shooting everywhere 🧡, and the first serious trichome production has started ✨.
Mistakes from earlier (too much IR, uneven light distribution) are still visible on some plants, but overall the crop is healthy and vigorous. Next week should be the start of real frost explosion ❄️.

Nonostante l'infestazione di minatori fogliari comparsa ad inizio fioritura quando ormai non si poteva fare nulla e le alte temperature la fioritura procede bene, mi scuso per la "latitanza" dal postare ma sto facendo orari di lavoro particolari a causa del caldo, mi sveglio la mattina e per le 7,30 sto al lavoro , e alle 12 finisce il primo turno di lavoro, per poi iniziare il secondo turno di lavoro alle 16,30 per lavorare poi almeno fino alle 20, turni brutti..... Che mi impediscono purtroppo di essere presente come vorrei...
Le cime si sono ingrossate molto , in alcune piante anche più di molto, penso che arriverò almeno fino a 14 settimane come ho visto fare in altri diari con la stessa genetica e vedrò il risultato a 14 settimane per farmi un idea, e valutare se come penso le temperature quasi africane che stanno subendo le ha rallentate
Una pianta sta facendo foxtail a causa delle alte temperature, ma solo una per fortuna😁 Shiva protegge chi vive seguendo la retta via, fa buone azioni verso il prossimo e prega ogni sera 🙏

Man, that Skunk Apple runtz plant is giving me some trouble. It's still really small and hasn't grown much at all. I think I might've messed up a little because the leaves are looking kinda rough. Hopefully it can bounce back.
Well, it's Christmas again. This year feels a little different, though. Maybe it's the snow blanketing everything, or the way the tree lights up the whole living room. Either way, it's cozy and warm, even when it's freezing outside. I'm really looking forward to seeing what Santa brings. I hope I get that new video game I've been wanting. But most of all, I can't wait to spend time with my family. We always have so much fun
This past week was a good one for the plants. They started the first week of their stretch, and they've already grown a decent amount. I can really see them filling out. It's cool to watch them grow so fast. I can't wait to see how big they get by the end
I always get a little worried at this stage, like they're not gonna get as big as I want them to. But then I remember how they always end up surprising me. By the end, they're always perfect.

Water the ladies with some PH 6.0 CALMAG 5ml/gal and a small shot of KING COLA and EMREALD GODDESS about 1ml/gal in between feedings.
I am using a little heavier feeding this week than last weeks late flower per EH chart. I leaned into it a little more by 2ml extra per gallon I have not seen any nuite burn the whole time so I think they can handle an extra 250ppm its my last feeding I am hoping for some swell up on the colas, I know there is some sacrifice in yield with the 11/13 flower shedule but these bitches smell bad ass. I have to leave the fan and filter on all the time now as soon as I open the tent it wafts through the garage. If a bag of citrus fruit were to slapping sloppies with a brick of Blonde Lebanese is the only way I can describe it. I am going to feed this week and start flushing next week with PH 6 rainwater for the last two to three weeks. The hairs are starting to turn orange and trichomes are getting more cloudy. thanks for liking.

Bud washing is still fairly controversial. I do it because this is a personal crop, i dont have much time or space to toss a plant that might show a bit. Jorge Cervantes does it, so can I!
Updates to come!
