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.
So maybe…
this is not really the end after all 🌱

All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more.
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.

Flowering day 76
since time switch
to 12/12 h.
Hey guys :-)
Finally the time has come .
The lady was harvested and hung upside down in the dry tent 😍.
Before that, she stood in the drying tent in complete darkness for 2 days and the large leaves were removed.
The small leaves stay attached during the drying process so that they protect the buds and allow them to dry more slowly and evenly :-) .
In the dry tent, the temperature is 18-19.5 degrees and the humidity is 54-58% 👍.
In this environment they are now allowed to hang for 10-14 days before they are fine-tuned and trimmed clean by hand.
then after trimming they come to ferment for 6-12 weeks in dark jars with bobeda packs 62% to keep the perfect humidity.
After a few weeks, the Boveda packs 58% are used so that they can slowly dry out :-) .
Of course there is one last update after trimming.
Until then, I wish you a lot of fun with the update.
Stay healthy and let it grow 💚🙏🏻

Heyókȟa
I desire naught but the study of nature, to find my way back home.
12x12=144, A dodecahedron is a polyhedron with 12 faces, and in coordination chemistry, it refers to a geometry where ligands surround a central metal atom (in this case, Magnesium) in a specific, 8-coordinate arrangement. Dodecahedrane is a hydrocarbon, meaning it's composed solely of carbon and hydrogen atoms. The carbon atoms are arranged at the corners of a dodecahedron, a 3D shape with 12 pentagonal faces. The water molecules in the dodecahedron form hydrogen bonds that are individually slightly weaker than in either the dimer or the tetramer. However, because three-quarters of the O -H groups in the dodecahedron form hydrogen bonds, it has a more negative energy per molecule than has either the dimer or the tetramer. Magnesium (Mg2+) is the essential, central metal ion in the chlorophyll molecule, crucial for photosynthesis by enabling light absorption and energy transfer. It is chelated by four nitrogen atoms within the porphyrin (or chlorin) ring structure. Chlorophyll appears green because it reflects light in the green region of the visible spectrum, specifically between 490 and 570 nm. The main resonance electronic frequency of a neutral Magnesium (Mg) atom corresponds to the transition from the ground state to the first excited state. Resonance Line Wavelength of Mg2+: 285.1nm (UVB light). The central atom of the chlorophyll molecule is Magnesium (Mg2+), which is coordinated within a porphyrin ring. The electronic "resonance frequency" of this central atom—meaning the frequency at which its electrons absorb energy—is primarily driven by the electronic transitions (ETR) of the surrounding conjugated chlorin ring structure, rather than a discrete atomic transition of the Magnesium atom itself. The resonant electronic frequencies of the chlorophyll porphyrin (technically, a chlorin) ring are determined by the energy required to promote π-electrons within its conjugated system, primarily appearing in the blue and red regions of the visible spectrum.
In standard physics, Chloryphyll b has peak absorption at 460nm (Blue). If we take the peak wavelength 460nm and a UV-B, UVR8 peak absorption wavelength 285nm Tryptophan-285 (W285) Sensing protein. 460/285=1.618 Φ, "natural harmony" and the "structure of light". The cryptochrome photoreceptor (CRY) is a UV-A/blue light receptor that shares this dual sensitivity with several other biological structures and functions, including significant sequence similarity and a common evolutionary ancestor with DNA photolyase enzymes. These are light-activated enzymes that use blue/UV-A light to repair DNA damage caused by UV-B radiation in plants.
Dodecahedrane (C20H20) is a hydrocarbon with a cage-like structure where carbon atoms form 12 pentagonal faces (a regular dodecahedron). It is highly symmetric (icosahedral), contains no delocalized electrons (no aromaticity), and has minimal angle strain, but significant torsional strain. Water Dodecahedron (H2O) forms hydrogen-bonded cages. While individual hydrogen bonds in this structure are weaker than in the linear dimer or tetramer, it has a more negative total energy per molecule. This is because three-quarters (75%) of the groups are involved in hydrogen bonding, creating a very stable, closed-shell configuration. a 3D carbon hydrocarbon (C20H20) to stable water clusters in hydrate, while the Magnesium ion acts as the central activator within a conjugated ring in biological systems, with its electronic absorption dominated by the ring, not the atom itself.
Effective quantum efficiency of photosystem II, often denoted as ΦPSII
In horticultural lighting, adding 730 nm (far-red) LEDs alongside standard red/blue lights has been shown to increase canopy photosynthesis by 20–30% in several crops by acting synergistically with shorter wavelengths. However, the limitation is that excessive, pure IR/Far-red light (without accompanying red light) can trigger the "shade avoidance response," causing plants to grow tall, weak, and spindly rather than robust. Knowing is half the battle however, engineering or utilizing infrared light (specifically the 700-750 nm far-red range) is a viable method to boost photosynthetic efficiency. It acts as a bridge to allow PSII to utilize a broader spectrum of light, breaking the traditional 700 nm barrier.
Extend, then multiply.
UVR8-mediated signaling (often in conjunction with CRY proteins) triggers protective mechanisms that maintain the stability of the photosynthetic apparatus (including LHCII and reaction center proteins), thus ensuring that the efficiency of Photosystem II remains higher in UV-B-exposed plants compared to plants lacking this receptor. ΦPSII indictates the rate of electron transfer from water to plastoquinone, which drives the production of ATP and NADPH. There is a close link between ΦPSII and the true rate of CO2 fixation (Φ*co2), particularly in C4 plants.
Effective quantum efficiency of photosystem II, often denoted as ΦPSII, represents the proportion of light absorbed by Photosystem II (ΦPSII) that is actually used in photosynthetic electron transport. It is a key indicator of how efficiently a plant is using light for photosynthesis, as opposed to losing it as heat or fluorescence. ΦPSII (effective quantum yield of photosystem II) functions primarily as a "multiplier" (a coefficient of efficiency) rather than an additive factor when estimating the overall photosynthetic electron transport rate (ETR). Multipliers are considered far more beneficial than additions because they generate exponential growth, leverage existing resources to their full potential, and create sustainable, self-multiplying capacity, rather than just incremental, linear increases.
Humans, and most other mammals, rely on other mechanisms, such as nucleotide excision repair, to manage and repair UV-induced DNA damage. As such, humans do not have the direct, light-driven repair mechanism that photolyase offers in plants.

9.2.25:
Purple Punch P1 and P2 are near the end. Trichomes are looking good. Starting to turn cloudy. I think another week or 2.
P3 is a different story. She is pitifully small still. The buds are also not developing as fast as the other 2.
Will keep checking the progress every few days (if I can get in the tent)!
9.2.25:
The plants had a good watering, they're all still drinking a lot. Which is great, as that means growth, which, at this stage, we desperately need!
I went ahead and gave all the plants a thorough watering each with:
2ltrs of dechlorinated water, PH'd to 6.5 with:-
♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster
♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids
♡ 4ml Seaweed extract liquid
I don't know how this scrog net is going to work out.
I think the squares are too big. It's elasticated, which I like. However, I'm extremely cautious with watering and moving the net. It's only a matter of time before I break more branches. It's such a hassle with it in there, honestly. I can't get in the tent properly to even check the weight of pots, as it's all weaved through, and again, I will snap branches.
I did have a free net with the tent, which I think was smaller squares. I think I will use some other training next run.
It's really not my kind of setup. I'm too interested in moving things and inspecting the plants constantly.
The net is driving me up the wall. 😣 I'm considering removing it and trying something else, but it's also a bit too late for oldest plants.
9.2.25:
Gave the plants another good soak.
I used 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. It contained the following nutrients;
♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster
♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids
♡ 4ml Seaweed extract liquid
♡ 0.5g of Ecothrive Biosys.
The plants are undergoing explosive growth at this stage, which I'm thrilled by!
Purple Lemonade is turning purplish hues.
Pink Mist has so many bud sites and is looking very healthy.
Do-sì-dos is growing vigorously and looking promising, especially considering all my unfortunate mishaps! 😅
Watermelon also has considerable growth. However, my training has made a mess out of the structure. Which I consider another valuable take away.

24/07:
Diese Woche starten wir ganz entspannt. Das Training ist vorbei, in der letzten Woche wurden noch ein paar Blätter entfernt, aber nichts wildes.
Es kommen nach wie vor 1-2x in der Woche eine Ladung Eiswürfel auf den Mulch, um die Lila Buds zu fördern.
Viele der Trichome sind weiss, einige noch klar und noch keine Bernsteinfarbend.

The girls are happy! Pistils are long and the calayxs are developing nicely. Starting to stack and swell!
Kinda turned into a jungle since the defoliation and now it's so much leaves...I removed a dozen or so but I dont like defoliating at this stage so I just tucked them to expose more light.
Some unexpected stretch from the watermelon wedding cake and zkittlez.
Really happy with this one!

Hallo liebe Growfreunde 💞
Ich bin zurück mit dem neuen Wochenbericht 🤗
Danke an die neuen Follower, ich hoffe es macht euch Spaß meinem Grow zu Folgen
An alle anderen, für immer aktuelle Updates auch Folgen😁😁😁🤗🤗🤗
So jetzt zum Wochenbericht. Alles läuft sehr entspannt, kaum was zu tun, aber es ist einiges passiert🤩🤩. Die Buds werden fetter, der Geruch ist einfach himmlisch und die Farben sehen toll aus. Leider kann man die Farben nicht so gut erkennen auf den Bildern, aber es purplet ganz schön🤗😁
Die Sweet ZZ erholt sich von ihrer Calmag Blockade und die neuen Blätter zeigen keine Anzeichen mehr auf Mängel. Die Gorilla Zkittlez holt an Größe auf und ist jetzt etwa so groß wie die Sweet ZZ, aber mit deutlich weniger Nodien. Ich denke die Peyote Critical wird als erstes reif sein, sie wirkt am weitesten entwickelt und auch die Blütezeit ist die kürzeste von meinem Setup. Danach wahrscheinlich die Sweet ZZ und evtl. Die Green Gelato. Die Runtz und die Lemon Shining Silver Haze werden am längsten brauchen. Ne quatsch, die Gorilla Zkittlez wird am längsten brauchen da sie erst seid etwa 2 Wochen blüht.
So das wars für diese Woche meine lieben💞
Ich hoffe euchvgefällt was ihr seht und lasst likes und Kommentare da🤗🤗🤗
Tut gutes💞

I decided to give the Girls one more veg week while i tried to gently adjust the ph. Although just managed to achieve a 7.5
Plants are getting bigger and I have limited space so they are going to flowering anyway.
Guess the ph was high due to dolomite lime I added when measuring with unclaibrated ph meter and got misreaded 5.5ph
I plan to add some bokashi and worm castings aiming to get to the 6.5 ph.
Girls are looking fine only some leaves yellowing thanks to the ph locking some of the nutes.

**Week 8 - Third Week of Flower**
Things are getting wild in the Donutz tent! After the insane stretch last week, the plants have turned the space into a full-on jungle. The start of Week 8 called for drastic measures, and the results are setting the stage for explosive bud production.
**Key Updates**:
- **Aggressive Defoliation**: On Day 1 of the third flower week, the plants underwent a *brutal* defoliation. Every bud site that had started to develop its own leaves was stripped of its fan leaves, allowing light to flood the canopy. Even the smallest sites now have excellent exposure, giving them the best chance to mature into chunky nugs in the coming weeks. Despite the intensity of the trim, the plants are resilient and primed to bounce back strong.
- **Boosted Nutrients**: To support the plants after the stress of defoliation, I added another 5-6g of Greenhouse Feeding Bloom per plant. This ensures the soil stays nutrient-rich and gives the plants the resources they need to recover and thrive.
- **Watering**: Still rocking reverse osmosis (RO) water, ensuring clean and efficient hydration without any surprises.
**Observations**:
- The canopy is significantly cleaner and more open, with light now reaching deeper into the lower sections.
- The plants are handling the defoliation well, with no immediate signs of stress or shock.
- Bud sites are already looking promising, with visible development and an even distribution across the canopy.
**Looking Ahead**:
The next few weeks will be all about letting the plants recover and watching the buds stack up. With improved light penetration and a fresh dose of nutrients, everything is lined up for some impressive development.
The Donutz are thriving, and the Florida Gang vibes are at an all-time high — the tent is set to deliver big!

Day15 - Day17: I had some difficulties to get the humidity right. It was either too high or fluctuating too much. I ended up getting a timer for the plug and running the humidifier 15mins every hour. To help with air flow, I have the main duct fan running 4 times a day for an hour. To ensure that there's airflow around the plant, I have a fan in the light as well as a smaller clip-on fan that runs during light hours. I'm not sure how the camera moved on day17... I only watered it mid-day.
Day18: The timer on the humidifier and Duct Fan is now keeping the humidity in a good space. VPD now under control
Day19: The Vivosun controller perfectly adapted the lighting schedule to an hour earlier, to ensure 6hrs of darkness. UInfortunately the RPi kept it's 04:00 schedule (makes sense). So I captured an hour of darkness. Adapted everything. Will have 18hrs again from Day20 onwards.
Day20: In the next days I'll lift the camera higher for a better view of what's happening up top. My mesh-netting-dingsbums will arrive and I'll use this as a platform for the pi+camera.
Day21: I'm not sure if I like this angle. I'll only keep it like this until she goes into veg-mode. It at least shows the new nodes growing from different perspective
