Esta semana empiezan a entrar en la sala de floración. Las primeras en entrar han sido unas shishkaberry´s, 2 zkittlez y una grapefruitmalawi. También hay un macho shishkaberry.

Week 9 of Flower - Beautiful colours and a crazy smell

tbd.

So this round I just lollipopped and didn’t strip the top at all, with better veg next round it’ll work better but I’m having issues with some plants not quite trellised how I’d like. Everything smells great, BCS,BD and WM are getting fat and PKB is frosty and tight. Watering is more of a chore than I’d like I think I’m just going to use some 5s for the next round . Thanks for following along I hope your buds are fat and frosty.

Week 15 (4/25/22 - 5/01/22)

**400 Gallon** fabric pot (Not 80 Gal) Yes that’s right, no nutrients in the water. The soil is rich. So right now we are just getting her established with her new fixers. (Field Peas)

Cherry Limeade von Doja – Wochenupdate 🌱 Bei der Cherry Limeade geht es langsam in die Endphase der Blüte. Die ersten Blätter beginnen bereits, herbstliche Farben zu entwickeln 🍂, während die Buds weiterhin ordentlich Harz produzieren und sehr klebrig sind 🌸. Insgesamt bin ich mit der Entwicklung der Blüten weiterhin zufrieden, allerdings gibt es aktuell einen Punkt, der mich etwas nervt: Die Buds bilden zunehmend Foxtails aus. Ich vermute, dass die dafür verantwortlichen hohen Temperaturen zumindest teilweise eine Rolle spielen 🌡️. Besonders der Hydrone 5 von AC Infinity entwickelt im Betrieb deutlich Wärme. Der VPD wird zwar durch den KI-Controller und den Hydrone 5 insgesamt sehr gut geregelt, aber genau hier liegt meiner Meinung nach eine Schwäche des Systems. Bei der Produkteinführung wurde aus meiner Sicht nicht ausreichend kommuniziert, wie viel zusätzliche Wärme der Entfeuchter unter bestimmten Bedingungen in das Zelt einträgt. AC Infinity hat die Produktbeschreibung mittlerweile entsprechend angepasst, als ich das Gerät gekauft habe, war das allerdings noch nicht so kommuniziert. Das ärgert mich ehrlich gesagt etwas. Wenn die Außenluft eine hohe relative Luftfeuchtigkeit mitbringt, muss der Hydrone 5 entsprechend viel arbeiten. Trotz der Regelung über den Ablüfter können dann im Zelt durchaus Temperaturen von etwa 29 °C entstehen, weil die vom Entfeuchter erzeugte Wärme die Kühlung über die Abluft teilweise wieder zunichtemacht. Als alleinige Entfeuchtungslösung sehe ich den Hydrone 5 deshalb inzwischen eher als Winterlösung. Wenn die Außentemperaturen niedrig sind, sind hohe Temperaturen und hohe RLF normalerweise ohnehin weniger problematisch. Schimmel muss ich mir unter den aktuellen Bedingungen zwar keine großen Sorgen machen, aber Foxtailing in der Endblüte möchte ich natürlich trotzdem möglichst vermeiden 😅. Deshalb werde ich die Lichtintensität in den nächsten Tagen von 900 auf etwa 800 PPFD reduzieren und beobachten, wie sich die Buds entwickeln 💡. Vielleicht lässt sich damit etwas Druck aus dem System nehmen. Beim Aroma bin ich inzwischen ebenfalls etwas enttäuscht. Ein echtes Kirscharoma hat sich leider weiterhin nicht entwickelt 🍒. Die Buds sind zwar extrem klebrig, aber verglichen mit meiner Mentha de Croco haut mich das Aroma bisher nicht wirklich um. Aktuell wirkt das Terpenprofil insgesamt etwas schwach. Ob das tatsächlich genetisch bedingt ist oder die hohen Temperaturen einen Teil des Aromas beeinträchtigen, möchte ich noch nicht abschließend beurteilen. Ich warte deshalb definitiv bis zum Ende der Blüte und nach der Trocknung und Reifung mit meinem endgültigen Fazit 🧐. Vielleicht passiert in den letzten Wochen noch einiges – gerade beim Aroma kann sich bis zum Schluss noch etwas verändern. 📊 Aktuelle Parameter: 💡 Licht: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 → künftig ca. 800 PPFD 🌡️ Temperatur: 25 °C zeitweise bis ca. 29 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit: 54% durch Hydrone 5 geregelt 📈 VPD: 1,4 kPa durch KI-Controller/Hydrone 5 stabil geregelt 🌿 CO₂: Ø 700 ppm 💦 Wasserverbrauch: ca. 1,92 l/Tag Cherry Limeade – Weekly Update 🌱 The Cherry Limeade is slowly entering the final stage of flowering. The first leaves are already starting to show some autumn-like colors 🍂, while the buds continue to produce plenty of resin and are extremely sticky 🌸. Overall, I’m still happy with the development of the flowers, but there is one thing that is starting to annoy me a little: the buds are increasingly developing foxtails. I suspect that the high temperatures are at least partly responsible for this 🌡️. The Hydrone 5 from AC Infinity generates a noticeable amount of heat while running. The VPD itself is actually being controlled very well by the AI controller and the Hydrone 5, but this is also where I see a weakness in the system. When the product was originally launched, I don’t think AC Infinity communicated clearly enough how much additional heat the dehumidifier can add to the tent under certain conditions. AC Infinity has since updated the product description accordingly, but this was not communicated that way when I purchased the unit. Honestly, that does annoy me a little. When the outdoor air has a high relative humidity, the Hydrone 5 has to work harder. Even with the exhaust fan being controlled accordingly, I can still see temperatures of around 29 °C inside the tent because the heat generated by the dehumidifier partly offsets the cooling effect of the exhaust 🌡️. For this reason, I now see the Hydrone 5 as more of a winter solution when used as the sole dehumidification method. During winter, lower ambient temperatures make the additional heat much less of an issue. I’m not particularly worried about mold under the current conditions, but foxtailing during late flower is obviously not something I want to encourage 😅. So over the next few days I’ll reduce the light intensity from 900 to around 800 PPFD and see how the buds respond 💡. Hopefully this will take some stress out of the system. I’m also a little disappointed with the aroma at this point. Unfortunately, no real cherry aroma has developed so far 🍒. The buds are extremely sticky, but compared with my Mentha de Croco, the aroma isn’t really blowing me away. Overall, the terpene profile currently seems a little weak. Whether this is mainly genetic or whether the high temperatures are suppressing some of the aroma is something I don’t want to judge conclusively yet. I’ll definitely wait until the end of flowering, and preferably until after drying and curing, before making my final assessment 🧐. There is still some time left, and especially with the aroma, things can still change during the final weeks. 📊 Current parameters: 💡 Light: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 → reducing to approx. 800 PPFD 🌡️ Temperature: 25 °C occasionally up to approx. 29 °C 💧 Humidity: 54% controlled by Hydrone 5 📈 VPD: 1,4 kPa well controlled by the AI controller/Hydrone 5 🌿 CO₂: Avg. 700 ppm 💦 Water consumption: approx. 1.92 L/day

Missed a day of watering but still looking like they are building proper buds first indoor grow I'd say is going good so far should be starting to flush my mid week on the black domina x Scott's og supposed to be a 7-9 week flowering time but not positive on when to start flush with Coco coir. Remo claims 7 days so I guess we shall see how it looks beginning of week 8.

I think there’s been some sort of salt build up / nutrient lock. The lower leaves have been turning a lighter green and some even yellow on SL plants. Most stems are red. Seems like it’s a pH problem. I flushed them with 4-5 litres of water to reduce the nutrient concentration in the roots. Going to introduce molasses in next feeding! Organic Unsulphered And also stop the Micro (nitrogen)

Questo giro sono veramente contento di aver usato questo super soil di Dogma Organics perché le ragazze stanno alla grande e hanno tutto quello di cui hanno bisogno, ho aggiunto circa 20g di top dress e innaffiato con sola acqua ad una temperatura di 22ºC. Domani dovrò partire per 3 settimane circa per lavoro e lascio tutto in mano a mia mamma con le indicazioni tutte scritte! Purtroppo non riuscirò ad aggiornare le prossime 3 settimane ma va bene così, la cosa importante è che quando torno le mie bimbe sono ancora vive 😆

LSD — Week 12 12/12 from seed. Late flower. Full expression. Quiet hands, heavy flowers. This is the stage where the grow starts asking less from us — and more from our patience. By now, most of the work is already done. Structure is built. Feeding has done its job. Environment has stayed stable. Roots have carried the weight. And now the plant is doing what it was always meant to do: Finish. This is not the week for chasing numbers. Not the week for aggressive changes. Not the week for “fixing” what clearly isn’t broken. This is the week for restraint. For observation. For letting the plant complete the final chapter on its own terms. And LSD is doing exactly that. ⸻ Quick recap — how we got here This run was never about force. It was about rhythm. From the start, LSD showed what stable genetics + stable conditions can do when they’re allowed to work without interruption. No dramatic swings. No constant corrections. No overhandling. No chasing deficiencies that weren’t there. No feeding for ego. Just consistent inputs, controlled environment, steady root-zone conditions, and enough discipline to leave healthy plants alone. That’s what built this finish. Now, in week 12, we’re seeing the result of every quiet decision made weeks ago: * strong vertical structure * dense flower stacking * steady resin production * proper late-flower fade * increasing floral mass * and a plant that is still focused on ripening, not surviving That matters. Because this stage is no longer about growth. It is about conversion. The plant is no longer trying to become bigger. It is trying to become heavier, louder, stickier, and more chemically complete. And it shows. ⸻ Late flower, properly explained This is one of the most misunderstood stages in the cycle. To newer growers, this phase can look confusing. Leaves begin to fade. White hairs begin to darken. Growth appears slower. The plant drinks differently. Some leaves curl. Some flowers swell unevenly. The plant looks “older.” And that is exactly what should be happening. This is not decline. This is maturation. Late flower is the point where the plant shifts energy away from expansion and into completion. That means: * less vertical push * less fresh green growth * slower water demand * increased resin output * calyx swelling * terpene maturation * pistil oxidation * nutrient drawdown from stored reserves The plant is not slowing down because something is wrong. It is slowing down because it is finishing correctly. ⸻ Trichomes — what they are, and what they are not This is where the real story is now. Trichomes are not “frost.” They are not cosmetic sparkle. They are not just visual proof that a plant “looks strong.” And they are definitely not just sugar. Trichomes are glandular resin heads — microscopic biochemical factories built by the plant. Their job is protection. They exist to defend the flower from: * UV stress * heat * dehydration * pests * fungal pressure * environmental stress And inside those tiny resin glands is where the plant stores much of what we care about most: * cannabinoids * terpenes * flavonoids * volatile compounds * aromatic oils So when we say a plant is “getting frosty,” what we actually mean is: The plant is reaching peak resin production and chemical expression. That frost is chemistry made visible. And right now, LSD is deep in that phase. The resin is no longer just forming. It is maturing. That distinction matters. Early trichomes are mostly clear — immature, still developing, not yet fully expressed. Then they move cloudy/milky — peak cannabinoid development, strongest active expression. Then amber begins — oxidation, degradation, and chemical transition into later-stage ripeness. This is why trichomes matter more than pistils. More than fan leaves. More than fade. Because trichomes tell you what the flower is doing chemically — not just visually. And right now, these plants are no longer building resin. They are finishing it. ⸻ The “curl” in the leaves One of the easiest late-flower details to misread. At this stage, some sugar leaves begin to curl, claw, or fold inward around the flower. New growers often panic here. But in late flower, this is often not a feeding issue. It is not always heat. It is not automatically toxicity. Sometimes, very simply: There is just too much flower and too much resin sitting on too little leaf. At this point the plant is carrying weight, stacking density, and coating nearby leaf tissue in resin so heavily that those small leaves begin to tighten, curl, and fold into the flower. It is a late-stage pressure response. Part mechanical. Part environmental. Part genetic. Very often normal. Context matters. And in this context — dense tops, heavy trichome load, stable temps, no major stress signals — this reads like maturity, not trouble. ⸻ Pistils — why the white hairs are changing This is another classic late-flower marker. Those white hairs are pistils. Early on, they emerge bright white as the flower actively builds and reaches. As the flower matures, those pistils begin to: * darken * curl inward * oxidize * retract into swollen calyx tissue That change from white to orange/brown is not the plant “dying.” It is the flower aging into ripeness. Fresh white pistils usually signal active new flower development. Darkened pistils usually signal that part of the flower is maturing and beginning to finish. This is why late flower often shows both at once: * older pistils darkening * newer pistils still pushing That is normal. Flowers do not ripen all at once. They ripen in layers. And that’s exactly what we’re seeing now. ⸻ Feeding — why less is doing more This is the point where overfeeding does more harm than underfeeding. The plant no longer needs to be pushed. It needs to be allowed to finish. Right now the feed is still simple, controlled, and appropriate: * Pure Zym * Sugar Royal * CalMag Pro * Terra Bloom * Power Buds * Green Sensation Nothing excessive. Nothing chaotic. No late-game bottle collecting. No panic additives. Just enough to support: * final bulking * resin maturity * metabolic efficiency * clean finish That’s the right move here. And yes — next week is likely the point where feedings begin to step down or stop entirely. Not because the plant is starving. Because the plant is done demanding. That’s the difference. Late flower feeding is not about force-feeding weight. It is about supporting the final metabolic steps without leaving excess behind. The closer we get to harvest, the less the plant needs to be fed — and the more it needs to be left alone. ⸻ Environment — why nothing is changing This room is still stable. And stable is exactly what late flower wants. * 26°C day * 18°C night * 60% RH * ~21°C root zone * ~18°C solution * 12/12 unchanged * CO₂ stable * watering controlled And most importantly: The plants clearly like it. So we do not change what is working just because we are close to harvest. Late flower is not the time to start experimenting. Not the time to suddenly drop temperatures. Not the time to force stress. Not the time to chase color. Not the time to “improve” a stable room. Consistency is what got the plants here. Consistency is what finishes them properly. ⸻ Weight gain — where the real growth is now The plant is not stretching anymore. But it is absolutely still growing. Just differently. This is density growth now. Mass growth. Calyx stacking. Internal swelling. Resin thickening. Water redistribution. Final weight. This is where flowers stop looking bigger every day — but start feeling heavier every day. That is late flower. Less visible movement. More invisible gain. And this is where growers who harvest too early lose the most. Not because the plant looked unfinished. Because the final weight had not landed yet. That weight is landing now. ⸻ What to expect next week Next week is likely transition week. Not dramatic. Not aggressive. Just the beginning of the final slowdown. Expect: * less water demand * slower daily movement * more pistil darkening * more calyx swelling * heavier tops * continued fade * trichomes shifting deeper into maturity * feed reduction or full stop approaching This is the point where observation becomes more important than intervention. The job next week is simple: Watch closely. Touch less. Finish clean. ⸻ Final thoughts This is one of the most beautiful parts of the cycle. Not because it is explosive. Because it is precise. This is where good structure becomes good flower. Where patience becomes weight. Where resin becomes chemistry. Where restraint becomes quality. LSD is no longer trying to impress. It is trying to finish. And it is doing that exactly right.

Hello growers day 58 in the garden I gave her a bit of a leaf defo today still not purple some leafs have purple tips but that’s about it she has got some nice looking buds forming so we will see happy growing

About day 38 i am just realizing that i am stupid and been feeding the biogrow for cocoa coir 🤦‍♂️ way iver nuting with soil it says never to go over 1ml/L So i will be flushing for at least 1 or two waterings. Looking for the tip burn to stop spreading and the tips to not look like there clawing

Special thanks to @DreamIT for showing me how to add music and animation to video. Check out my fountain video above for a short clip. Thanks to @UnorthadoxDude for influencing me ( by visual curiosity) maybe twisted an arm to buy some carnivors. Well I happened to find some at our annual master gardener plant sale. I will be putting some in the tent. Lots of growth in my carnivores. Flowers on Sundew.

At day 77 from seed, 31 days since the switch to 12-12, I hope she is done stretching because my light is as high as I can make it and as close as I want the plant. This girl is one stretchy beast. She is starting to smell a little more but still not strongly. I'm excited to watch her fill out. I will do very little defoliation from here on. She looks happy to me so far even though it looks like she has filled my tent out.

📆 Semana 7 Los cogollos continúan ganando densidad y acumulando resina, con una estructura floral cada vez más definida. El Fade sigue avanzando por las hojas grandes, mientras la planta concentra su desarrollo en la maduración de las flores y se acerca poco a poco a la recta final. ⚡ EC: 1.45 💧 pH: 6.2 🌡️ Agua: 21°C 🌫️ Humedad: 55% 💡 Intensidad: 800 - 900 ppfd 🔥 Nota de cultivo: Los cogollos ganan densidad y la resina sigue aumentando, mientras el Fade avanza y la floración entra en una fase más madura. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

42Fast Buds - Gorilla Zkittlez Auto 🌱 Today marks 70 days, and it's finally time to bring this incredible journey to an end. 💫 Honestly, I can hardly bring myself to cut her down, I've grown so attached to her, and she's just so beautiful. But the trichomes have turned a deep amber, and there's no more time to wait. For the last 6 days, we’ve been flushing her roots with ice-cold water, watching as she transformed, her colors changing and becoming even more stunning. It wasn’t just a grow – it was a true process of evolution. I want to give a huge thanks to 42FAST Buds for their amazing genetics and for allowing me to grow such a phenomenal strain. Gorilla Zkittlez Auto is an absolute masterpiece! 💥 Special thanks to Xpert Nutrients for their incredible fertilizers and ongoing support. Without you, we wouldn’t have achieved these remarkable results. You helped grow not just a plant, but a true work of art! 🌟
