A-Day 81, B&C-Day 77 A- Is already 1/2 way through week 12, she almost all cloudy, with some amber tricomes now. I have started her “flush” just water for two feeds now. I’m going to keep watch, and see when is the right time, no rushing this go around . 🌱😎💨 B- is doing great, fattening up daily. A few more weeks at least, I hope she gets as big as her sister A 😍she got a full strength dose of nutrients twice this week and a water only feed in between. PPM was close to 1000 . C- is thickening up, I have her a slight defoliation and tied her down a bit to spread her branches. She is turning into a beast 🤩she also got 2 full dose feeds, and a water in between. Just keep spinning them around to get the even coverage.

The week went well, the plant is developing, but it seemed to me that slowly. In the middle of the week, before going to bed, it wilted, the next day it became cheerful again, now it always fades before turning off the lamp, is this normal ? The plant began to drink more, increased the amount of fertilizer, PM brought to 1010.I keep the PH from 6 to 6.5, I water 2.5 liters of water every 2 days, as the soil dries out.

Week 2 Flower – Roller Coster Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Full Bloom Ahead The girls aren’t just entering flower — they’ve rocketed into it. From what seemed like a short transition, they’ve gone full throttle: pistils shooting, buds forming, leaves praying, and roots bursting through the medium. ⸻ Growth Update – No Pre-Flower, Just Boom This week marked an unusually fast shift: • Visible Pistils Everywhere – no gradual pre-flower here; instant bloom mode. • Budlets Forming – early structures already showing stacking tendencies. • Stems & Roots – while not the thickest stalks, the root zone is bursting with vitality, visibly surfacing in some areas of the soil. • Canopy Size – they’ve outgrown the closet! Photos this week stay inside the tent, it’s just not safe to move these ladies anymore. ⸻ Irrigation Upgrade – Semi-Auto in Motion With the room expanding and multiple genetics running, it’s time to make watering smarter: • Semi-Automatic Irrigation Installed – currently set up to water 8 plants. • Not Fully Automated Yet – still manually monitoring and hand-watering other genetics in the room. • The goal is precision without full delegation — a hybrid system offering consistency + control. This is how smart growers scale: one foot in tech, one foot in the soil. 🌱 ⸻ Red Spectrum Timing – Emerson Effect in Action Let’s dive into light science, because this week, you’ve implemented something most growers don’t even think about: ☀️ What is the Emerson Effect? Discovered by Robert Emerson in the 1950s, the Emerson Effect is the phenomenon where plants photosynthesize more efficiently when exposed to both red (660nm) and far-red (730nm) light simultaneously. Even better? Far-red at the start and end of the day manipulates the plant’s internal clock, promoting faster flowering and shorter day-length response. 🔴 Your Implementation: • 15 minutes of red/far-red spectrum • Before lights-on (simulating dawn) • After lights-off (simulating dusk) This technique: • Promotes faster flowering initiation • Enhances flower site expression • Helps with sleep/wake cycle regulation Well played — this is next-level light manipulation. 🌕 ⸻ AC Implementation – Heat Down, VPD Back in Range The much-needed air conditioner has arrived, and it’s already proving itself: • Old Temps: ~31°C • New Temps: 28.8°C • Humidity: 66.6% • VPD: 1.33 kPa (much more ideal for flower initiation) While it’s still a warm tent, the VPD is now in the sweet spot, allowing for strong transpiration, nutrient uptake, and healthy gas exchange. The girls are clearly responding beautifully. ⸻ Nutrient Addition – Plagron Sugar Royal This week we’ve added Plagron Sugar Royal at 1ml/L to our Aptus regimen. What is Sugar Royal? Despite the name, it contains no actual sugar. Instead, it includes: • Amino acids – which help the plant produce more chlorophyll and essential oils • Biostimulants – supporting stress resistance, enzyme activity, and resin production Why now? In early flower, Sugar Royal: • Promotes floral aroma expression • Helps boost terpene synthesis • Supports the plant’s transition from vegetative to reproductive growth It’s a perfect complement to your Aptus Core Line, which continues to include: • Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L • Top Booster – 0.2 ml/L • Now: Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L ⸻ Looking Ahead – Stretching Toward the Sky With such aggressive early flowering and the canopy rapidly expanding, it’s hard to say if you’ll be able to move them for next week’s photo shoot, and that’s okay. If we’ve learned one thing from this strain, it’s that she moves at her own thrilling pace. Expect: • Continued vertical stretch (still likely to gain 30-50% more height) • Strong bud stacking at internodes • Early terpene and trichome formation in the next 7–10 days Your setup is dialed. Your environment is stabilizing. And your knowledge is putting these girls in the best hands possible. ⸻ 🌱 Week 2 Flower Summary – Roller Coster Rises 📸 Stay Tuned, Stay Rooted • Height: ~50–55 cm • PPFD: ~760 µmol/m²/s • Temperature: 28.8°C • Humidity: 66.6% • VPD: 1.33 kPa • Light Cycle: 11/13 (with 15 minutes red/far-red at lights on/off) • Nutrients:   – Aptus Regulator (0.25 ml/L)   – CalMag Boost (0.25 ml/L)   – All-in-One Liquid (1 ml/L)   – Top Booster (0.2 ml/L)   – Plagron Sugar Royal (1 ml/L) • Photos: Taken inside the tent (plants too large to move) From this point forward, the buds will fatten, aromas will intensify, and your tent will become a living painting of sativa energy. Next week might be wild — whether or not we get outside shots, the story will be worth sharing. ⸻ Let’s keep the momentum going, and let’s keep making GrowDiaries and the community a space where we learn, laugh, and bloom together.

8-26 I am at 57 days today...I took 5 clones off my bubble bomb fem two days ago...i they are in a one gallon cloner with plain water I phd down to 6.2 and seem to be doing alright so far...im not sure about were I made my cuts on the mother plant...im pretty new to this and there seems to be different methods for cloning...as I took my braches off I put them in a glass of water...then I placed each one underwater in a pyrex dish while I made all my cuts...I did a quick dip using clonex rooting gel and took a qtip hit all the spots I trimmed off leaves that would be on the business end of my cloner...my theory is that's more spots for roots to start...I didn't take pics while I was doing it because I nervous and wanted to be as practical as possible...I will post more pics and updates through out the week for those following along 8-29 60 days today...I realized that my ph meter was outta wack and had to recalibrate it...do not know how long it was like that...buds are swelling and my heights are as follows THC BOMB AUTO 22.5 inches still BERRY BOMB AUTO 29 inches and BUBBLE BOMB FEM is 21 inches and just starting to show sex...I moved her outside yesterday and she seems to be loving her new home...taking clones off of her never slowed her down that I could notice and seems to have helped her if anything...clones are still looking the same as when they were taken they are still just as green and still have no roots yet...I would like to also touch on the subject of smell...the BBA does FOR SURE have that berry aroma but at this stage I have to move it away from the THC BOMB AUTO to even notice ...I have been trying to find the right words to describe the TBA and if I had to pick just ONE I would go with...VICIOUS...eye watering at times...I know I may not get the greatest yield this round but potency and quality are fine by me...any help in those regards is much appreciated...I would also like to add that as far as I can tell BOMB Seeds not only know there genetics but there descriptions, information, and facts stated on their website seems to be VERY ACCURATE and TRUE...If your debating on Bomb Seeds give them a grow you will not be disappointed no matter what level of grower you are!!!! 8-30 61 days today...TBA is getting only water since yesterday...started a SCROG on my BUBBLE BOMB I took out doors...she loves the sun and was getting to tall for my space...I will be finishing my grid for my SCROG and keeping busy with things the next few days...I will post new updates when my next week starts...Happy Growing until then EVERYONE!!!!

Amnesia Skunk Auto · Week 12 From Seed The Zamnesia Way 🌿 Week 12 from seed, and the room is speaking clearly now. The pace has changed. The structure is set. The stretch is long behind us. What we are watching now is the final conversation between plant, soil, and time. This week marks a quiet but important shift: the feed is gone, the bottles are mostly out, and the room is moving into its last phase with little more than water and time. Not because the plant has stopped. Because it already has what it needs. ⸻ From Seed to Here This run was never about chasing size. It was about letting the plant express itself honestly. From the beginning, these Amnesia Skunk Autos stayed compact, controlled, and efficient. Not the tallest in the room. Not the loudest in stretch. But from early on, they showed exactly what they wanted to be: short internodes, dense flower sites, tight stacking, and a natural tendency to build weight instead of height. That is the shape of this plant. And now, in late flower, that early structure is paying itself back. The canopy stayed manageable. The frame stayed compact. And all that energy went where it matters now — into resin, density, and flower mass. This is why reading plant structure early matters. Not every plant wants to become a tower. Some would rather become stone. And that is exactly what these did. ⸻ Week 12 — What Is Changing Now This week the room shifts gears. The bulk is mostly built. The flowers are set. The plant is no longer trying to produce more structure — now it is finishing what it already made. And that changes everything. The metabolism slows. Water demand begins to taper. Nutrient demand drops. Uptake changes. The plant becomes less interested in growth and more interested in completion. That is where we are now. So this week we simplify. Less input. Less interference. Less feeding. More observation. Because late flower is not the time to force more. It is the time to let the plant finish speaking. ⸻ Why We Moved to Water Only (And Why Pure Zym Stays) This week the nutrient stack is stripped back and the room moves into water-only irrigation, with one exception: Pure Zym. That is intentional. At this stage, the plant is no longer asking for aggressive nutrition. It is asking for access. And that is what enzymes help provide. Pure Zym stays in because the soil is still alive. Even when bottles are reduced, the medium is not “empty.” It is still biologically active. Still processing. Still cycling. Still breaking down what remains. That matters now more than people think. The plant may be drinking less feed, but the soil is still working. And enzymes help keep that system moving by supporting the breakdown of leftover organic material, dead root matter, and residual compounds in the medium — making them easier for microbial life to process and easier for the plant to access in its final phase. In simple terms: we are not feeding the bottle anymore. we are feeding the biology that is still feeding the plant. And because this soil will be reused afterward, keeping that microbial life active matters beyond harvest too. The run does not end at chop. The soil keeps going. What is left behind in this pot will not be waste. It will be recycled into the next life — broken down, reprocessed, and eventually returned to the garden again. That is part of the system too. ⸻ The Plant Right Now This is where the room gets beautiful. The greens are beginning to deepen. Pigments are shifting. Leaf tone is changing. The flowers are darkening. The plant is beginning to wear its finish. And with that comes the real reward of late flower: resin. Trichome production is immense now. Heads are fully formed. Coverage is heavy. Resin has moved beyond the sugar leaves and deep into the flower surface itself. The frost is no longer just visual. It has texture now. Density now. Presence now. And the flowers are following the same pattern. Dense. Compact. Heavy for their size. Not oversized plants — but plants that pack. That is one of the most satisfying expressions in the room: small frame, serious output. No wasted motion. No wasted energy. Just compact plants doing exactly what they were built to do. ⸻ Conditions Stay the Same Because the Plants Say So Room conditions remain stable and largely unchanged. Nothing dramatic. No late flower panic. No chasing numbers for the sake of numbers. The room is still run by plant response first. Leaf behavior. Water use. Transpiration. Posture. Response. That remains the real metric. The environmental numbers matter, of course — but only in context. And right now, the context is simple: the leaves are relaxed, the flowers are building, the resin is pushing, and the room is balanced. So we stay steady. No need to force a correction where the plant is already in agreement. ⸻ What to Expect Next (And What Not to Rush) Now we wait and watch. The finish line is visible, but this is still the part where patience matters most. Over the next stretch, expect: * deeper fade * continued pigment shift * slower water uptake * final calyx swell * heavier resin maturity * stronger aroma expression * less vertical movement, more flower completion What not to expect: * explosive new growth * major swelling overnight * dramatic structural change * a miracle in the final days That part is done. Now it is refinement. Maturity. Completion. Harvest may come next week. It may come the week after. The plant will decide that, not the calendar. And late flower always rewards the grower who waits one more day for the right reason. ⸻ Gratitude A run like this is never built alone. Respect to the genetics from Zamnesia. Respect to Plagron for keeping the root zone moving. Respect to the LEDs for carrying the room from start to finish. Respect to the platform for giving growers a place to document honestly. Respect to everyone following quietly, watching closely, learning, questioning, supporting. To the day ones. To the new ones. To the growers. To the lurkers. To the lovers. To the skeptics. To the curious minds. To the old heads. To the ones still learning. To the ones teaching without saying much. All of you are part of the room too. Grow with love. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

NOTE: THE COUNTING OF DAYS STARTS FROM THE DAY THE SEED STARTS ITS PROCESS, IN THIS GROW DAY 1 WAS THE MOMENT THE SEED GOT INSERTED INTO THE EASY START (i do not recomend this method for experienced growers, but higly recomend it to unexperienced growers that might accidentally damage their seedling's new root as they move them from the germination zone into their next or final pot, with easy start you can just pick up the small cube of soil and place it inside the next pot GENTLY). NOTE: For strain informations, soil recipe and nutrient's stock please do check "Germination Week" as you will find all the information there. (Do not replicate nutrient dosages as these are higly variable depending on the conditions within the grow room or tent, so you may end up damaging or killing your plants even if they are the same strain from the same breeder). --------------------------------------------------------------------___________________________________________________________-----------------------------------------------------------------------_____________________________________________________________________---------------------------------------------------------------- 03/11- All watered with 950ml of water per plant with dilluted nutrients in the rates specified above. Light schedules changed to 19/5 and will be further extended to 20/4 to allow for more hours of heat from the lights as we progress into winter. 06/11- All watered with 1,4l of water with 2ml/l Bio Rhizhotonic + 0.45ml/l of Ancient Earth. LP1- Topped + Removed first set of leaves as those were not in use anymore completely covered from light. LP2- Removed first set of leaves as those were not in use anymore completely covered from light.

She grew up nicely very healthy and strong and she produced a decent amount of organic clean cannabis, It's great and just what I work for because I'm a patient that needs to grow his weed and doing it making sure I grow them naturally and organically. The result is a very fruity and and tropical aroma, the purple color makes her even more beautiful. It's just a dream man, I love it, I just love to grow this strain, the 4 plants I grew had the same aroma very tropical and fruity, super sweet.

She's looking gorgeous, very healthy thanks to my Florians living organics,she's has everything she needs, I'm dealing with some problems with fungus gntas due to all tje organic matter that there is in tje soil so I'll be fixing that problem using nematodes steinernema feltiae, fungus gnats eat you plants roots and all the nuts of your soil, so it's important for you to fight them as fast as possible. Enjoy the diary! ✌️💚❤️✌️

31/aug Week 4 of flowering is done. She stoped growing and now focus is on bud growth and density. I defloatied her to allow light to come in hand also took off the lower tiny flowers. Food is normal minus 2l of water since I've seen minor burns on some leafs.

Very good strain! I really recommend it! Didn’t expect too much but was really surprised!
