Esta semana a los 73 dias de floracion decidí que ya tenia que cosecharlas. No podia dejar pasar mas dias puesto que se corria mucho riesgo de botritis y los tricomas estaban ya suficientemente maduritos, igual demasiado. Jamás me habia encontrado con unas jack con tanta cola de zorro pero de oler huelen a gloria. hasta el último dia estubieron siempre dentro del armario y posiblemente por la extracción no pude percibir el olor tan agradable que desprenden, intenso . Algo mas terroso de lo que pensaba. Cogollos duros como piedras, algo exsagerado. Con 74 dias al secadero, calefactor 80w más un par de ventiladores con ventilacion indirecta, extraccion, intraccion pasiva

This week has been great.I'm glad that I was able to pull the plant when I needed to. The weather out here isn't always the best coming towards the end of October. How ever i handle it the best we can. What ive learned to do is wet trim before hang dry. Heres some phots of these glossing nugs. Iknkw ill lose a bitin water weight but im happy none the less. Fire 🔥 This has been a great grow, I learned a lot from Growing out here in new mexico. It was amazing to be able to train these plants 4 into one using training techniques. LST, HST, Defolation & topping all play a roll. It is fun to learn and sharpen my skills. I hope everyone enjoys my diary. Thank you so much Divine seeds. I appreciate the free seeds and the friendly community competition 👌 There's a lot of good growers outthere and I wanna learn from all. Much love ❤️ I'll be back with a smoke review soon

Always dry trim. The leaves come off more easily when dry and it preserves more THC with the longer drying time. Will weigh up in 7-10 days. Smoke report. Tastes like strong grape juice when you hit it. Very smooth and easy on the throat. Pretty much gave me instant relaxation and relief from my depression. Seems like a good morning smoke which I love. Thanks fastbuds! Weighed up to 2.5 Oz. Could've claimed 3+ but didn't count ANY larf.

Welcome Back!💚 Die Sleepy Joe befindet sich nun in der siebten Blütewoche und die Blütenbildung entwickelt sich wunderbar. Ich bin gespannt ob sie in der 8 Wochen range bleibt. Nach dieser Woche kommt ein Trichomcheck. Das Blattwerk habe ich nochmals ein bisschen ausgedünnt. Der Geruch hat sich auch nochmal stark intensiviert. Aktuell kommen starke Nuancen von süsslicheren düften, kombiniert mit Lösungsmittel oder ähnlichem hervor. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind aufgrund des nassen Wetters etwas anders. ————— 🌞 Temp: 24°C 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💦 RH: 58% 💨 VPD: 0,91 kPa 😎 PPFD: 830 mqm ————— Grüne Grüße 🥦

She grew what I thought were male parts so I cut off a branch that I thought had them. Lol. No idea if it was or not. I hope she’s okay. She never quite took off like I thought she would and even after her week of pk 13/14 I’m not sure what she’s going to deliver. Well, she’s got 3 more weeks to go so we’ll know soon enough.

Week 12 — GMO Cookies Served with extra curiosity ? Week 12 from seed marks what we call Week 7 of flower in this 12/12-from-seed run, and at this stage the room is doing exactly what it should: less intervention, more observation, and a whole lot of trust in the process. By now the heavy lifting is done. Structure is built, flowers are formed, resin production is in full swing, and the focus shifts from pushing growth to guiding the finish. That’s why the room still looks familiar on paper — 26°C days, 18°C nights, 60% RH, steady airflow, same rhythm, same calm environment. No dramatic changes, no chasing numbers, no panic-adjusting because a chart says so. Leaf expression remains relaxed, transpiration is steady, and the plants are still telling us the same thing they have all run: conditions are stable, leave us be. That consistency is what got us here. And now we let them finish. ⸻ Less feeding, more finishing This week marks the real transition into the final stretch. The bottles have mostly stepped aside, and the focus now is simple: water, enzymes, patience. At this point the soil still holds more than enough nutrition to carry these plants home. That is one of the biggest advantages of building a living, reusable medium instead of treating soil like an inert substrate. The plant has already been fed. Now the soil gets to do what it was built to do: buffer, break down, recycle, and deliver what remains. So instead of continuing to push feed late into flower, we’ve shifted almost entirely to enzymes. This week the mix is simple: * rainwater * dehumidifier water * Pure Zym * no pH adjustments Landing naturally around 6.8. That is perfectly acceptable here, and more importantly, it is consistent. At this stage we are no longer trying to micromanage every decimal point. We are reading plant response, not chasing bottle charts. The root zone is stable, the soil is active, and the plants are finishing without asking for more. That matters more than forcing a perfect number onto paper. ⸻ Why enzymes matter now This is where enzymes earn their place. Late flower is less about feeding the plant directly and more about helping the soil finish clean. Enzymes work by breaking down dead root matter, leftover organic residue, and unused nutrient material in the substrate. Instead of allowing that material to sit, stall, or accumulate as waste, enzymes help convert it into simpler compounds the soil biology can either recycle or clear out. That matters for three reasons right now: 1. Cleaner root zone The plant is nearing the end of its life cycle. Roots naturally slow, age, and shed. Enzymes help keep that zone cleaner, reducing buildup and preventing the root mass from becoming stagnant. 2. More efficient nutrient recycling There is still food in this soil. Enzymes help unlock what remains, allowing the plant to access residual nutrition already present in the medium instead of continuing to push fresh inputs. 3. Better soil for reuse This matters beyond harvest. Because this soil is being reused, enzymes help start that cleanup process now — breaking down residual organics and preparing the medium to be re-amended instead of discarded. This is not just feeding the end of this run. It is preparing the beginning of the next one in the veggie world outside. ⸻ Drinking less… but still drinking well Water uptake has eased slightly this week, now sitting around 1.5L per plant every 24 hours. That small drop is exactly what we expect here. They are drinking a little less now because the plant is no longer prioritizing rapid structural expansion. Stretch is done. Leaf production has slowed. Vertical growth is over. The plant is no longer spending energy building framework. Now it is ripening. That shift changes demand. Water use naturally tapers as metabolic priorities move away from expansion and toward maturation. Less new biomass is being built, so total uptake softens. But they are still drinking well — and that matters. Because while structural growth has slowed, flower metabolism has not. The plant is still: * moving water * stacking density * swelling calyxes * pushing resin * regulating temperature * transporting stored energy into the flowers That still takes water. So yes, they are drinking less. But 1.5L per day, in late flower, with this amount of biomass and this level of flower production, is still a very healthy sign that the engine is running exactly as it should. ⸻ The room right now This is one of the most rewarding phases of the cycle. The room smells louder. The flowers feel heavier. The frost gets thicker by the day. The color starts to shift. And every plant begins speaking its final language. This is where the run stops being about control and becomes about presence. There is less to do now. But more to notice. This stage is hand-watering, lifting pots, checking weight, scanning leaves, watching posture, tracking fade, peeking into bracts, checking trichomes, noticing who is ahead, who is slower, who is swelling, who is darkening. This is where the work becomes quiet. And this part matters just as much as everything that came before it. ⸻ Bulk, frost, and the final swell This week the flowers are doing what good late flowers should do: they are swelling. Not stretching. Not throwing chaos. Swelling. The buds are putting on that final weight now — denser, tighter, heavier by the day. Calyxes are stacking over calyxes, the flower surface is thickening, and what looked finished a week ago suddenly looks like it still has more to give. That late swell is where so much of the final weight comes from. And GMO is showing exactly why it earned its reputation. The flowers are broad, greasy, and dense. The frost is no longer just visible — it is layered. Trichome coverage has moved past sparkle and into texture. You can see it sitting on the flower surface like sugar pulled too thick. This is where the plant starts looking less like it is flowering and more like it is preserving itself in resin. ⸻ What you are seeing now: pistils, calyxes, and ripening This is the point where flower development becomes easier to read once you know what is changing. Those bright white hairs (pistils) that dominated earlier flower are beginning to darken, curl, and recede. That is normal. Early on, pistils emerge fresh and white as part of active flower development. Their job is simple: reach outward while the flower builds. Now that the flower is mature, many of those pistils have done their job. So they begin to: * oxidize * darken * curl inward * shift from white to orange, amber, or brown That is not decline. That is ripening. At the same time, the calyxes beneath them begin swelling. This is the part many growers miss. As the pistils age and pull inward, the calyxes underneath begin to enlarge and firm up — becoming fuller, rounder, tighter, and more pronounced. That swelling is where density comes from. It is one of the clearest signs the flower is still building real mass even when fresh white hairs begin slowing down. So while the pistils look older, the flower itself is still maturing. That is exactly what we want. ⸻ And then there are the trichomes This is where the real finish happens. Trichomes are not just “frost.” They are the plant’s chemical armor. These resin glands are where cannabinoids, terpenes, and much of the plant’s aromatic complexity are produced and stored. What looks like sparkle is actually the plant concentrating its chemistry onto the flower surface. And late flower is when that chemistry peaks. Right now they are thickening, clouding, and maturing. This is the stage where clear heads begin turning cloudy, volatile terpene content is peaking, and the plant begins shifting from active production into final ripening. That is why this stage matters so much. This is not just visual maturity. This is chemical maturity. ⸻ Special guest in the garden ? This week’s inspection team also included one highly unqualified but deeply committed assistant. A tiny toy fly has been making rounds through the canopy, checking trichome density, inspecting pistil posture, and offering absolutely no useful advice whatsoever. Morale has improved. Yield projections remain unchanged. The inspection reports were biased, but adorable. We’ll allow it. ⸻ Looking ahead to Week 13 Next week will be about watching the finish tighten. Expect: * more visible fade * stronger senescence expression * slower water uptake * deeper aroma * continued calyx swell * more pistil recession * trichomes pushing further cloudy This is where patience matters most. Not every plant will finish on the same day. Not every top will mature at the same speed. And not every signal arrives all at once. Next week is not about deciding harvest. It is about learning how close harvest is becoming. And that is a very different thing. ⸻ Final thoughts Week 12 is one of those weeks that reminds you why the slow parts matter. The feeding. The restraint. The consistency. The observation. The trust. Now it shows back in the flowers. To everyone following along — the longtime growers, the silent lurkers, the curious beginners, the sharp-eyed critics, the day-ones, the new faces, the supporters, the skeptics, the genetics, the breeders, the platform, and everyone spending even a minute here with this run: Thank you. To those who watch closely, cheer loudly, question honestly, and keep showing up week after week — respect. To the OGs who have been here since the first awkward updates and to the new eyes just arriving now: welcome. And to these plants, for doing what they do best with quiet precision and no ego at all— all 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.

Classic me, jumped the gun again on the nutes and went a bit too heavy on the PK for this stage. Normally, she would’ve handled it like a pro, but the weather threw me a curveball. Temps in the tent dipped to 22°C during the day, and she straight-up went on a hunger strike. I had to crank up the heat in the room to lock the tent temps at a steady 25-26°C. As soon as it warmed up, she perked right back up and crushed her 730ppm ration without a hitch. It’s becoming clear that even though she grows bushy like an Indica, she craves the heat like a true Sativa. Definitely never a dull moment here. Next week marks the start of the most beautiful and intriguing phase of flowering. Smash that like button and subscribe so you don't miss out, haha! :)

Bad week for my baby she lacked food so she was droopy did not realize she needed food as she was dark green and I was skipping a week of feeding because of it. (Looked like she had nitrogen toxicity ) thought she was being overwatered so I let her dry out . Once that dif not work to pick her back up. I thought what I did differently with her ? Oh yah skipped a feeding lol. So I fed her right away with tnt growth formula it's locally made and within 2 hours she looked better unroll 2 days later when she looked normal again. Last day of veg. Next week will be flowering

Less is more. Lesson learned. Without training these plants, having the fifth plant has really cramped the tent. Because I have limited space for the tent, access into the sides isn't possible. I have only the front entrance. Next time I think I will stick yo maybe three strains that have been positive and try and find the time to train more. The WOS-Northern/Skunk has grown out so nicely into a Xmas tree type of posture. She is making her really good friends with her neighbours, perhaps to their detriment. Seedsman Blueberry continues to be solid and unphased by anything. This is the first time I have smelled a plant that has such a fruity aroma. It really took me aback in surprise. Very cool. HiFi 4G needs support. Did a McGyver solution for the time being. Doesn't appear to have bulked up much this week. Jack is about the same. A bit of bulk up but not expecting this one to be a big yielder. Appears healthy overall so I'm happy. CBD+ bulked up for sure on the main cola's. I'm skeptical she will be done at 60 days at this point....but have to trust what Dinafem are telling me. Be safe folks.

Day 56....buds developing nicely....laid off any nutrients for the last week and considering just one more spirulina feeding, then just well-water for the rest of the grow, with no flush....pollution/haze levels high which might effect the plants
