14.1.25: I've been readjusting the LST. I just took all the pegs out and reshaped her. I got some new LST equipment in the mail today, have been glad to have more pegs. I got some clips too, but they don't seem to stay on 😕 I'm currently only using the pegs, I have some thicker soft wire, but I forgot I don't have pliers to cut it! Also I'm running very low on Biobizz nutrients, so that could be bad 🤞 18.1.25: I have done another large defoliation on PPP1 and PPP2. Also, moderate defoliation on all other plants today. All LST ties and pegs are readjusted. I have turned up the light to 90%. Same distance of between 24-28 inches, depending on height of specific plant. I have increased the dosage of Biobizz Bio-Grow and Fish Mix to give an extra boost of Nitrogen as several plants were showing yellowing. They have responded very well to this. Unfortunately I ran out of my Biobizz nutrients and PH UP. I'm currently using Bicarbonate of Soda to increase the PH after the nutes PH comes out to about 4.1. Obviously, that uses a lot and I only had a 250ml bottle, which I used last run too. This run I have 9 plants. The only thing I'm worried about is the salt build up. Have you used it before? Or any other natural way to increase PH? Please let me know! I've also added Biobizz Fish Mix to help with the extra Nitrogen needed. Watering with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients;- ♡ 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 2ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Biobizz Top Max ♡ 2ml Cal-Mag ♡ 2ml Ecothrive Flourish. I water with this every 3 days. I did order some more Biobizz Bio-Grow and Bio Bloom. I found some at a reasonable price on Amazon. I still have about 800 ml of Biobizz Fish Mix left, too. It is fairly expensive this time as the plants are hungrier this run. I also got a new bag of Canna coco, which I may use to add a top dress with some dry amendments. Which hopefully will save some cash on the bottled nutrients and stretch out until the end of this run without having to buy anymore. I have purchased a funnel to pour the water. It is difficult, due to the shape of my LST, to water precisely. I have spilt it all over the tent several times 🙄 I've also ordered a 2 litre jug. Currently, I'm mixing water for 9 plants individually in a 1 litre jug. It's tideous. Hopefully, this will solve the issues. Cleaning the tent after watering every time isn't my idea of efficiency 😅 Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Hi, topman. On the week was added red clips for bending, also realise solution of 35% refueling nutrients! So, looking, please>> Its has trichomes … I watch in full! They are have in second (AA rasty) too! And, they are semi full adaptation after transplant from 0,7l in 25l.

This week was real great today is day 103 an these girls are all drying out for 12- 14 days ! Then will be ready for trim and cure! Keep your eyes peeled for next week , will have more photos when we get to trimming! Cheers everybody Happy grows🤙

Thanks for checking and stay safe all 😋

Tuve plagas de Araña roja y de Mosca blanca, he fumigado 2 veces y parece que esta solucionado. Los cortes Apical y FIM van creciendo correctamente.

10-8-2024 TOP DRESSING AND WORM TEA..... NOTHING MORE 10-9-2024 22ND DAYS INTO FLOWERING SMELLS CRAZY ON THESE STRAIN GETTING SOME SNOW ON TOP LET'S GO 10-11-2024 DO NOT HAVE ANY PEST BUT JUST IN CASE NATURESGOODGUYS HOOK ME UP WITH LADYBUGS JUST GOT HANGING PATCH ABOUT /WITH SHIPPING 10-14-24 NOTHING TO DO...JUST WATER (PH6.6)AND WATCHING THE PLANTS....... COPY CAT GENETIX STRAINS ARE CRAZY!!!!!!!!

Going slow i believe because I chocked the seed with peat moss. I needed to put vermiculite, rookie mistake. I’ll do better next round though!

Space is getting tight! The two new plants in the tent with the already flowering Bubblegum has me tinkering with leaves every night. Setting up a scrog this week possibly or might just do it open ended.

Pictures are the day before harvesting. They were flushed for 2 weeks. Plants are dark purple in color and a very fruity unique smell. Ill harvest and have numbers shortly.

Día 22. Las plantas van muy bien. Veo un buen tamaño de flores y buena cantidad por ahora. Espero que sigan en ese camino. Estimo que van a ser unas 9 semanas de floración en total. Así que entrando en la 4ta semana, estimo que voy a empezar a usar el overdrive desde la próxima semana. Seguramente voy a tener que hacer otra defoliación. Día 24. La floración viene muy bien. Las plantas van engordando parejo. Aproveché que algunas plantas están más bajas en altura y coincide en diagonal, así que puse la luz en diagonal para lograr una distancia pareja a la luz con todas las plantas. Voy a leer algunos diarios para ver cuando jan empezado a usar overdrive de advanced.

🍬 Sweet Mandarine Skittles (Sweet Seeds) – Week 7 | Flowering Day 1 🌸 Here we go! 🚀 Yesterday I flipped her to bloom, so today is officially Day 1 of flowering. She’s growing in Sonnenerde (yes, real “sun soil” 🌞🌱) and has already stretched like crazy. Honestly, she smells phenomenal – a strong sweet citrus candy vibe in the air 🍊🍬. I’m a bit worried she might turn into a giant later on, but that’s part of the fun 😅. I didn’t catch the moment right after transplanting to see how she reacted, but hey – it’s all part of the experiment. Luckily I’ve got a few more seeds of her in the stash, so we’ll see what this one can teach me 🌿. Stick around, follow along, and let’s see how big this Sweet Mandarine Skittles rainbow will shine 🌈🔥. --- 🍬 Sweet Mandarine Skittles (Sweet Seeds) – Woche 7 | Blütetag 1 🌸 Jetzt geht’s los! 🚀 Gestern habe ich auf Blüte umgestellt, also ist heute offiziell Tag 1 der Blüte. Sie wächst in Sonnenerde 🌞🌱 und hat sich vorher schon ordentlich gestretched. Der Duft ist jetzt schon phänomenal – süß, fruchtig, richtig nach Citrus-Bonbons 🍊🍬. Ein bisschen Sorge hab ich schon, dass sie nachher ein richtiger Riese wird 😅. Leider hab ich den Moment nach dem Umtopfen nicht getappt, um zu sehen, wie sie reagiert hat – aber egal, ist ja ein Experiment. Zum Glück habe ich noch ein paar Samen auf Lager, also mal sehen, was dabei rauskommt 🌿. Bleibt dran und vergesst nicht zu folgen – das hier könnte ein richtig süßer Ananas-Rainbow werden 🌈🔥.

GMO Cookies — Week 11 (Flower) “Served with Extra Curiosity” This week wasn’t about doing more. It was about seeing more. And sometimes… that changes everything. ⸻ 🔬 Photo Stacking — What it is & why now This update goes deeper than usual. We explored focus stacking (photo stacking) — a technique where multiple images, each focused at a different depth, are merged into one ultra-detailed image. * 20–25 frames → standard macro depth * 80–100+ → high detail * 200+ frames → extreme resolution, full structure visibility Why now? Because this is the phase where: ➡️ Structure is set ➡️ Growth slows down ➡️ Detail becomes everything There’s less to do… and more to observe, understand, and appreciate. We’re no longer just growing. We’re studying. ⸻ 🌱 Quick Recap — How did we get here 12/12 from seed. No traditional veg phase. Plants shaped themselves under flowering conditions from day one. What we see now is the result of: * Early root establishment * Stable environment * Consistent feeding * Minimal interference No chasing. No forcing. Just letting the plant express. ⸻ 🌿 The Room — Stability over control Conditions remain intentionally consistent: * Temp: ~26°C day / 18°C night * RH: ~60% * pH: ~6.5 * EC: ~2.0 * CO₂: ~1000 ppm Everything is guided by plant feedback (leaf EPD) — not by rigid charts. At this stage, stability matters more than perfection. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition — Supporting, not pushing Current feeding: * Terra Bloom * Pure Zym * Sugar Royal * Power Buds * Green Sensation * CalMag Pro Balanced, consistent, predictable. We’re not trying to “boost” anymore — we’re maintaining the conditions for proper finishing. ⸻ ❄️ Trichomes — The real story This is where the stacking work pays off. With the naked eye, we see frost. With macro stacking, we see architecture. * Trichome heads forming and swelling * Density across sugar leaves and calyxes * Early signs of maturity variation within the same bud Not all trichomes develop at the same speed — and now we can actually see that clearly. This is where observation becomes knowledge. ⸻ 🌸 Bud Development & Stacking The plants are doing exactly what they should now: * Vertical growth has stopped * Bud stacking continues steadily * Density increasing day by day No explosive changes — just refinement and consolidation. This is the quiet phase… but it’s one of the most important ones. ⸻ 🎥 Studio Work & Branch Sacrifice We took a branch to the studio for detailed work. Was it a sacrifice? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely. That branch gave us: * High-level macro insight * Controlled lighting shots * Focus-stacked visuals that reveal what’s usually hidden Sometimes, giving a little… gives a lot back. ⸻ 🧠 Why macro now? Because this is the phase where: ➡️ Doing less = doing more ➡️ Interference can do more harm than good ➡️ Observation becomes the main tool Macro photography allows us to: * Study ripening progression * Understand resin development * Train the eye for future harvest timing It’s not just content. It’s education. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect next week * Continued trichome swelling * Increased bud density * More visible ripening signals (pistil changes, trichome shifts) * Subtle but important daily progress We’re entering the decision-making window soon. ⸻ ⚠️ What NOT to expect * No more vertical growth * No drastic structural changes * No need for heavy intervention At this point, less input = better outcome. ⸻ 🙏 Final Words To everyone walking this journey with us: * The OGs who’ve been here since day one * The new eyes just discovering the process * The skeptics — always part of the balance * The silent supporters * The platform hosting this space * The sponsors and partners * The genetics behind these expressions And the plants themselves… This week wasn’t about growing bigger. It was about seeing deeper.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.

Well, another week has passed and it has been growing not exactly as I expected, but they warned me about using only base fertilizers with an inert soil and a higher ambient temperature, I could have a not so good result, well, it's one more experience and I liked it and let's see how it will be until the end of the cycle because the next one I already ordered a starter kit from the advanced nutrients line! Let's Go!

Loving the steady growth !! Fimmed and bottom branches tied down . Another week/ten days and I reckon she’ll start flowering.

Buds are starting to widen up, Looking nice and dense. Overall both look great.. Leaf tips started to burn a tiny bit so I backed light up couple inches. The C99 has about two weeks left. Everywhere I read it was 7 weeks to flower..Red Diesel still has like 3 to 4, I read around 9 weeks for that.. I’ll jus keep eye on tricomes.. But thank God everything is good ..

11/22 Day 9 Time to transplant into the one gallon intermediate pots, increasing feed ppm slowly. Feed set to 5ml/gal ea Cocotek A/B 370ppm after water adj Into the veg tent 5ml Kangaroots given as a one time for transplant Feed upped to 450 ppm 11/25 Feed changed to 600ppm 11/26 Feed to 780ppm 11/28 End of the week and things are good. The smallest plant isnt stunted just a different pheno (grr) 😜 Transplanting in a day or so

8th.05.25 68 Been so busy I don't even know what day it it. Last night I gave the chem dawg defoliation and add bloom booster and calmag to revervoir. Pumps where out so root rot was developing on all of them, however I think I caught it in time. Smell on tropicana cookies moved from sour citrus to sweet cirtus. Trichomes are clear and starting to trun milky. They are ripening nicely. I don't know how much longer I can hold out. I started counting days as the seeds were placed in water however I should start my count after germination so actually days are less than what I think. Still learning. I must say chem dawg was my least favorite because of longer grow time and less thc which is about 20% compared to other. But after seeing the stucture and how she is shapping up i must say i am quite impressed. No wonder she is a cassic strain. We shall see how things progress.
