Spent the past week transitioning to flower light cycle. Daphni is continuing to fill out and have some good growth around the nodes in the middle of the stalk. The humidity lingers @ 55% which is fine. I'm wondering at what week near the end should I turn the dehumidifier on. The radio is still on 95.7 (Classic and Heavy Metal Rock). Daphni's color has remained good this week and she had no major or minor leaf problems so hopefully that will stay the same. I started my Final Bloom Solution today when I changed out the reservoir. I added KoolBloom and some Cal-mag to the solution and my PPM went way up so I hope Daphni takes to it well. The ABLE Grow Chamber is still performing well but I have noticed some green growth along the grooves of the RainForest 66 reservoir. Will clean it with a tooth brush and towel.

I decided not to flush her, since I mixed her last food too strong and ended up with lots of leftover. She's also my only plant blooming at the moment, so I'll just keep using the leftover prepared water to top her buckets until she's done. ;) ----- The leaves turning yellow tell me I need to get ready to harvest her, probably this weekend. I'm sure I could do it already, but I'm really pushing for a couchlock...

Lemon Cherry Gelato YumYum 🙂 | Week 13 Final stretch, full weight, and still not done While one Lemon Cherry Gelato is already hanging and drying from last week’s harvest, her sister is still standing — and still stacking. That alone says a lot about this run. Same seed pack. Same room. Same schedule. Same treatment. Yet one finished first, and the other decided she still had more to say. That’s part of the beauty of running from seed, and part of what keeps these 12/12 from seed runs so interesting from start to finish. Same start, same environment, different expression. One leaned into the early finish. The other kept building. And now here we are with the second Lemon Cherry Gelato still pushing hard into late flower, still swelling, still changing, and very clearly not in a hurry. This run has been 12/12 from seed from day one. No veg reset, no transplant games, no long shaping phase — just straight into expression, structure, and flower. Fast, honest, and always a great reminder that a plant does not need extra time to show you what it’s made of. And this one is showing plenty. ⸻ Week 13 | Still building, still swelling This week made one thing very clear: we are in the final stretch, but we are not finished yet. The plant is deep into late flower now and changing fast. Not just in size, but in presence. Buds are denser. Calyxes are swelling harder. The room smells thicker. The air feels heavier. Colors are starting to shift. Resin is louder every day. Everything is becoming more concentrated now. This is the stage where the plant stops pretending. No more stretch. No more unnecessary movement. No more wasted energy. Now it is all weight, density, oils, pressure, and finish. And she is leaning into all of it. ⸻ Heavy enough to break herself The most obvious change this week is weight. Not visual weight. Real weight. Branches are bending hard. Some are splitting. Some are collapsing under their own mass. Support is no longer optional here — it is mandatory. And honestly, that says everything. This is not airy late flower bulk. This is real density. The kind that starts testing branch strength. The kind that reminds you genetics matter. The kind that turns “nice structure” into “please hold yourself together one more week.” The stems on this plant are thick. The branching is strong. The trunk is solid. And even with that, she is still pushing enough mass to test her own frame. That tells the story better than I can. ⸻ Feeding less, finishing more At this point, feeding is simple. No more pushing. No more chasing numbers. No more trying to force anything extra out of her. She has already done the work. Now the goal is simple: let her finish clean. At this stage she is only getting water and enzymes (Pure Zym), keeping the root zone active, helping break down what is left, and allowing the plant to use what she already stored. That’s it. No heavy feeding. No late flower overcorrection. No panic bottles. Just clean support, stable inputs, and enough patience not to ruin the last stretch by doing too much. Late flower is often less about what you add, and more about what you stop interfering with. ⸻ Environment | Warm, stable, and still working Room temperatures are still a little warmer than ideal, sitting around 26°C during lights on and around 18°C at night. Would I prefer slightly cooler late flower temps? Sure. But the plants are telling their own story, and they are not showing stress worth chasing. That matters more. Leaves still look happy. Uptake is still steady. Flowers are still swelling. Resin is still building. Nothing is stalling. Nothing is fading early. Nothing is asking for emergency corrections. So while the room is a touch warmer than perfect on paper, the plants are still performing exactly how they should. And at this stage, healthy performance always matters more than textbook perfection. ⸻ Studio trip included (because of course) And yes — despite the size, despite the weight, despite how awkward moving late flower plants becomes… she still went to the studio. Not because it was practical. Because she earned it. And honestly, this one deserved proper light. She is not the tallest plant in the room, but she is dense, broad, heavy, and full enough to make carrying her feel like moving a small tree made of resin. Worth it. ⸻ What to expect next week At this point, the answer is simple: More weight. More density. More color. More resin. More pressure on branches. And hopefully clearer signs of the finish line. What not to expect is a dramatic change in direction. She is not about to stretch. She is not about to explode into new shape. She is not about to surprise anyone with speed. From here, it is all refinement. The next week should be about tightening, ripening, swelling, and watching the plant decide when she is actually done. Not when the calendar says so. When she says so. And that is the only timing that matters. ⸻ Final stretch This one feels special. Not because she is finished. Because she is close enough now to make every day count. The room is changing. The plant is changing. The air is changing. And the finish is starting to feel real. We are close now. Not done. But close enough to respect every extra day. And as always — thank you to everyone still here. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the support. To GrowDiaries for the platform. To everyone following from day one. To the old heads. To the new ones. To the quiet ones watching in the background. To the growers. To the skeptics. To the supporters. To the critics. To the ones who stayed. To the ones who just stopped by for a minute. Love to all of you.

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.

Week 8 - Defoliating - I Know You May Be Thinking I’m Overdoing It But When The Stems On The Leaf Turns Purple That’s An Indication That For Some/Most Plate That It Can Be Plucked Off.

Checked out the trichomes yesterday, just to be sure, I think they’re 2-4 weeks away from harvest. This week I also fed them and slightly defoliated some leaves that were blocking light on some buds.

Plants still growing large

Welcome First and foremost. Thanks you so much to Zamnesia, plagron and the Eternity Cup. So excited to start this competition everyone! Gonna be a fun few months!!! 😁 1-18-25 Shook both seeds in some sandpaper. ( Pesky helmet heads). Dropped in some water with a dash of peroxide. Approximately 8am ish. Every 4 hrs poke the seed down in the water. ( Wanna make sure she takes it.) 1-19 Approximately 24 hrs later. Shells are slightly cracked, just enough to see the white. But not quite a tail yet. This is where I like it. Grabbed my hand 6 inch pot and filled it with Hp promix. Added 1/8th tsp Mammoth mykos. Added 1 ounce of water in the center of the pot only. Around 1/4 inch hole, sprinkled with Mammoth ( just a dusting ). Seeds planted. Dome placed. See you on day 1 Lets GO!

Hi guys there goes another week of flowering, the gg got over watering, the gagarin is shape up so is the ww all gelato's growing great no issues so far

Going to start flushing in about a week or so

Все хорошо 👌 Начал промывку субстрата

When i arrived i saw that lady twos cage had fell right over her... So some lower branches broke in half.. i tryed to fix it but whatever.. and i took away all the yellow leaves. Also added some organic biobizz nutrience. They r looking good flowering! Weak smell but smells wonderfull. Any tips or advices feel free to comment! Cheers homies!!

Sorry about the last 2 weeks guys had some issues and couldn't upload. So I flipped the lady's to flower on Sunday 6th December, added a Scrog and pushed it down so over the next few weeks while the plant stretches more and more heads should appear. Had some issues with thrips 2 weeks ago but have resolved that issue with a pesticide. For a sativa dominant strain the plants are very bushy with close nodes. Probably should add a lot of info to this week but I don't know where to start so if anyone has any questions please ask away! Nutrients are based on 15L of water currently 💚

I bring down the ph of the rockwool cubes by soaking them for a few hours in 3,5 and then flush them with ph 5,8 water with nutrients in and then let the cubes sit in ph corrected nutrients solution. I let them drain for 10 minutes After a 3,5 hours.

She is shaping up nicely. Buds are coming in really good. I pulled a few of her branches down to let a little more light thru. Tricomes are coming in good as well. I think she is going to be a good one 👍!!!! Her buds have doubled in the last few days and the tricomes really started kicking in. She is taking shape very well. Super happy with 420 Fast Buds!! Will definitely be growing again

These Autos have grown like crazy but i've made a rookie mistake!!! I've been using Plant Magic Soil Supreme along with their Old Timers Organic Nutes and the recommened feeding chart. Week 1 i just gave the plants water, on week 2 i gave them 2ml per liter of nutes and as recommended this week i have given them 3ml per liter. The next day after watering with 3ml per liter i noticed slight nute burn marks on the FastBuds BlackBerry so i've flushed the pot with PH nuteral water and it has seemed to stopped the burning. I've dropped the nutes back down to 2ml per liter and they seem much happier! I've been planning on LSTing the plants next week but when i watered the plants today on day 19 i have noticed little pistills as shown in the photos above so i may LST sooner. As ive said this is my first grow so does anyone have any advice when it comes to LSTing my plants? Happy Growing!

Hola a todos!. Las imágenes corresponden al periodo 28/08 al 03/09. Esta semana he regado con agua 400ml ph 6.3 Y le agregue un poco de top crop (top veg) 100ml solamente. La empecé a doblar en las ramas principales veremos que pasa.
