Day 57. Everything looking good, some look like their stretch is done, bud sites everywhere, fed them 1 L - 1.5 L of their solution. Using boost and terpinator. Day 58. Fed them Full with 20% runoff. They are starting to smell really good. Removed a lower branch on some of the plants since the light wasn't going to reach. Removed some fan leaves on some of the plants giving room for bud sites to get some light. Day 59. Looking real good, some still haven't stretched but have buds growing. I'm expecting them to stretch this week. I'm always giving them something to drink and they love it! *********** Day 60. So down to 8 plants. It sucks because one of the barney’s pinneaple chunk that hermied was a real beast with huge branches and buds, but tips of pistils were brown so probably would of had seeds even if i would of cut the balls as they grew. I saw some pistils on another plant that turned brown, Going to keep that one since it’s not hermie and just 2 pistils that are brown tipped. Fed them 1.5 L of solution each no runoff. Day 61. Looking good, buds growing nicely, long white hairs so i’m expecting big colas. All of them stretched except the 2 Diesel strain. Keeping light at 14-22inches from top of colas and humidity at 35-40%. Fed them 1 L -1.5 L solution each no runoff. Day 62. Defoliation, removed some fan leaves covering bud sites towards the middle of the lights. I make sure to not over do it and place the plants correctly for the bud sites to get direct light. I’m having a hard time with the 2 Diesel plants, they aren’t stretching and are slow on forming buds, they gave me a hard time through whole grow. Fed them All 1.5 - 2.5 L each of their solution with little or no runoff. Day 63. The 2 Diesel are starting to have their stretch. Everything looking good, buds are getting bigger and bigger. Making sure humidity is always under 45%. Keeping lights at 10-20inches from top of main colas. 40k-70k lux on the lights , updated with pictures. ***** Checked out plants and signs of hermies are showing, i see some male balls Both Barneys Pinneaple Chunk are showing signs of hermies ( balls growing ), going to remove both from tent and focus on the 8 other ones. What a terrible day ( day 59 )

Everything was great!! I loved growing my plant. It grows so fast and tge best part was smoking it. I hope to grow much more next time. I am buying a bigger light and hopefully next time I will have more buds and bigger.

Starting into Week 4 Flower, week 10 total Mandarin Cookies definitely has an extremely strong orange citrus smell, just from defoliating. Trichomes are coming in nicely. MC’s are way ahead of the SK’s. Definitely will be a staggered harvest at the Slower pace the SK’s are starting flower Stay tuned to see how these lady’s finish up! 3 - Madarin Cookies are two in back and one in center; darker leaves 2 - Silver Kush are two up front; bright green leaves 2-3 gallons water/nutes per 5 plants, alternating with plain water (just calmag, malassis, Ph. 6.4) every other day. Ph.6.4 The new version of Spider Farmer SF-4000 is an awesome light, for anyone wondering. New version has dimmer on top without having to remove the driver. No good pictures of Silver Kush yet, flowers aren’t so impressive... YET. I’m sure they’ll fill in just fine in next few weeks though.

🌿 LSD — Week 9 from Seed (Week 6 Flower) 12/12 from Seed | Photoperiod Genetics behaving differently ⸻ Quick Recap — Understanding the Structure These are photoperiod plants, but grown 12/12 from seed, which changes everything. From the very beginning, they grew under the signal of: “The season is ending.” Because of that, instead of building long vegetative structures, they: • prioritized vertical growth early • reduced lateral expansion • focused on reproductive sites sooner 👉 What we’re seeing now is the result of that decision: • a dominant central cola (main “collar”) • symmetrical but limited side branching • a very uniform structure across all three plants And honestly… they look like magicians because they adapted perfectly to the rules they were given. ⸻ 🌸 Current State — Week 6 Flower • Bud formation: clearly established, stacking nicely • Early frost: already visible → great sign for terpene/resin development • Structure: clean, upright, central dominance • Stem strength: very solid — supporting weight without stress • Defoliation: light work done to improve airflow and light penetration There’s also something interesting: 👉 These plants show a strong tendency to throw roots from stems/branches That’s a sign of vigorous internal energy and high adaptability ⸻ 🌱 Environment & Philosophy • Room: 28°C / 68% RH • Outside: ~10°C / 87% RH Given the external conditions, stability inside the room is actually very solid. And this is important: We don’t chase numbers. We observe them. • Focus is on plant response, not just meters • We aim for leaf VPD, not just room VPD • Right now → conditions are within a healthy working range ⸻ Feeding No changes this week. The current feeding schedule is: • stable • well-tolerated • supporting healthy development 👉 When something is working, we don’t interfere. ⸻ 🎭 New Team Member This week we officially welcome: Mr. Baggy 👜 He’s here, he’s learning, and he’s already part of the process. (Photos included in this update) ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (Next Weeks) • Bud swelling phase continues • Resin production increases significantly • Aroma profile begins to fully express • Minimal structural changes from here on Because of the 12/12-from-seed structure, don’t expect: • massive lateral expansion • large canopy reshaping 👉 This run is about refinement, not expansion ⸻ ⚠️ What Not to Expect • No explosive stretch (that phase is done) • No heavy training interventions • No drastic feeding changes unless needed We stay consistent. We observe. We adjust only if the plant asks. ⸻ About the Genetics (Why they behave like this) These LSD genetics are showing: • strong apical dominance • efficient energy allocation to the main cola • early transition to reproductive mode under 12/12 👉 In a normal veg cycle, these plants would likely: • branch more • widen their structure • delay flower development But here, they adapted to a compressed timeline — and it shows beautifully. ⸻ 🙏 A Note to the Community To: • longtime followers • new visitors • curious growers • supporters, skeptics, lovers, haters Everyone has a place here. Big thanks to: • the GrowDiaries platform • the breeders behind the genetics • the sponsors supporting the journey • and the entire growing community ⸻ 🌿 Closing Things are moving fast now. From here on, it’s about: • observation • patience • and letting the plant finish its story And honestly… they’re doing it beautifully. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@DOGDOGTHEDOCTOR NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens 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.

She is a great strain thus far. My tent has been getting a bit hotter in the summer. Just a bit of issue though. Can't wait to try this one. Such a sweet candy smell.

So it has been a bit more than a week since update but the ladies seem to be thru the stretch and budding well now. I think in the next update I'll do pics of the defoliation at week three(upcoming Sunday) I added some drip rings to even out watering between different strains. The Orange blossom gets two water lines pumping it while KK gets one and is still a bit damp. The adjustable drip tips just weren't keeping their settings and Blossom gets thirsty fast right now. They are just part of the floraflex kit for rockwool cubes, but with Coco I find water absorbs/disperses just fine.(I usually use 1/2'' black holes drippers but stepped on 3 of em..) Ladies are pretty healthy but lacked some N after the stretch here and yellowed some bottom leaves. I gave them a bit of Grow food in this reservoir. Just at 1 part. Micro at 2 parts, and Bloom 3. I really under feed and adjust up if they look hungry usually. I stopped using the Piranha and Tarantula powders after week two so those are on the shelf until the next rotation. But since I see buds I started, I added in the Liquid Kool bloom at .5 ml/l, again thats like 1/8th strength but its plenty. Too much of the boosters and stuff burns quick. I did a decent job keeping them trained back from the vert bulb this time so haven't crisped up any leaves yet which is great. The plants are about at 24 inches tall after the stretch to keep them under the big double ended. Thats actual height for the Krishna, but the blossom is bent into a bunch of z's to keep it low. These are actually some big plants stuffed in there, so hoping they make some good sized buds. Got some pics of the bud starts for each plant. No frost yet but it'll start by next week I think. Maybe a week until I pull off any buds that are not the size of a grape yet, and leave the good starts to get extra juice. I'm over trimming under buds since my last overgrown scrog.

Shortly after they were switched to flowering (after week 3) the plants continue to stretch and then start to develop their first flowers. Now in week 7 all plants have very nice flower clusters all over the plant and side branches. They have grown to 45 cm (=Shiva Skunk on left side) and 40 cm (Serious Kush on right side of aisle) in height respectively and all plants have a nice dark green color, which shows they are healthy and also that the Advanced Nutrients schedule works like a treat. The Q6W-Gen.2 LED-Lamps are now dimmed to 100% (=three green LEDs on the dimmer) and work on FULL POWER, which ensures full fledged flower production. Both varieties have now started to exude their typical aroma. The Shiva Skunk starts to smell musky and sweet, while the Serious Kush smells 'gassy' and 'fuely' like its OG-Kush heritage. The flower clusters on the Serious Kush appear to grow denser than the clusters on the Shiva Skunk.

Plants exploded this week once put into the Scrog. All tops topped once this week to help promote all tops below the main canopy to catch up with the rest.

Week 13 for Moby Dick by fastbuds, She lost a lot of her foliage during the hot weather this week as i also think she ran out of food a little earlier than i wanted her to. At the start of the week i gave her a fairly heavy feeding & she gaining some colour back, but now im back to plain water as she comes to her finish. Actually glad so much foliage has fallen off going to be a lot of an easier trimming job 😂
