Bernice (my largest at 6" tall) got topped today after the 4th node. All 3 others will wait a few more days till they reach the same height and node spacing/growth. Will start foliar feeding of (1 gal water/2ml - liquid seaweed/2ml - gold shield silica/2ml boomerang) tonight on 03/06/21. Plants seem to be drinking water a bit more this week, meaning their root systems are growing and getting stronger. Will likely feed plain RO water tomorrow and check runoff PPM & PH. All in all they're growing much better, at the start of this week they were showing signs of deficiencies, due to me not giving them a good feeding early enough (I was afraid of over-feeding and instead under-fed!). Due to under-feeding some of my fan leaves on the early growth have gotten some brown spots, which I'm unconcerned with as these will eventually either fall off or be trimmed off by myself before sending to flower.

This was my first grow and there were some troubles along the way I harvested a little early just off amateur instinct but it comes with time 🤷‍♂️🏻 Def recommended for beginners it’s a easy potent plant to grow and looks amazing

LSD × Zamnesia — Week 6 From Seed (Week 2 of Flower / Early Pre-Flower) Quick recap for anyone just joining We’re at Week 6 from seed, which we’re counting as Week 2 of flower. Plants were grown 12/12 from seed, with only leaf tucking and very light bending, no topping, no hard training, no defoliation so far. The goal with this run is maximum natural expression of the genetics, not shape enforcement. This week marks the transition into pre-flower: stretch is active, structure is being decided, and the plants are still very much setting their architecture. ⸻ Room & Environmental Conditions (Stabilized This Week) After some fluctuations earlier, conditions are now much more stable, and the plants are clearly responding well. • Temperature: ~27.5 °C • Humidity: ~65% • CO₂: ~900 ppm • PPFD: ~600–850 • Smaller plants: ~600–700 • Taller plants: up to ~800–850 • Plants are managing light by growing into the photons naturally • Nutrients: • Switched from Plagron Terra Grow → Terra Bloom • Following the Plagron feeding schedule • This was the only change made • Watering: • pH: 6.5 • EC: 2.4 • Root / Reservoir Temperature: • ~17 °C (a bit on the cold side, acknowledged) • Plants are adapting well and showing no negative response so far ⸻ Plant Observations — LSD × Zamnesia Honestly… these girls look outstanding. Even though LSD is often described as a more indica-leaning hybrid, these plants are expressing a strong sativa-style structure: • Tall, upright growth • Dominant central main stem • Side branches present, but clearly secondary • Very uniform behavior across all plants → strong genetic consistency Each plant is showing roughly 12–14 nodes, with: • Lower branches well developed • Side branches about half the size of the main stem • No signs that side branches want to overtake the main cola This is important: 👉 this is not a training issue and not a phenotype split All seeds are behaving the same way, which tells us this is genetic expression, not grower influence. ⸻ Training & Defoliation — Why We’re Doing Nothing There has been: • ❌ No topping • ❌ No hard training • ❌ No defoliation Only: • ✔️ Leaf tucking • ✔️ Very light bending when needed Why? Because at this stage, we want to: • Let the plants decide their final structure • Observe whether this genetic wants: • One dominant main cola • With several secondary colas supported by under-canopy lighting This run is about listening, not forcing. And with under-canopy lights active, even those secondary branches are getting meaningful light, which should pay off later. ⸻ Where We Are Right Now • Plants are still in pre-flower • Stretch is ongoing • Bud sites are forming, but structure is not finished • Each plant is moving at its own rhythm, which is exactly what we want to see This week is about stability, not intervention. ⸻ What to Expect Next Week (Week 3 Flower) Here’s what’s likely coming: • Stretch will continue, possibly peak • Clearer confirmation of: • Dominant main cola behavior • Final spacing between nodes • Pre-flowers will become more defined • Still no rush to defoliate unless airflow becomes an issue • Feeding stays consistent—no chasing, no stacking products Next week is about watching, not reacting. ⸻ Final Thoughts This marks a clean, confident Week 6 / Week 2 Flower checkpoint. Environment is stable, nutrition is dialed, and the plants are clearly happy expressing themselves.

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.

Decided I was going to do this 100% organic down to the Ph up and down is Nectar of the God's, I've added in some living soil which I haven't used in over a year to aide the plant even more organically. Plant showed zero stress from transplant and kept going, I felt the plant was moving extremely fast while still not competing a week of veg so I moved it early to not slow down its growth. Looking forward to the next 5 weeks of veg.

did a bit defoliation again and gave water with magenesium and aloe vera powder. I ordered FHM Fulvic & Humid Acid + Trace Minerals. Will use it the next week as topdress. I can smell some cherry terps already. Smells really nice :)

Well this week I had to give the girls a fairly big trim they were beautifully bushy but they were struggling for space so I cut back the heavy shade leaves that were covering bud sites I am also adding bloom to there feed from now but they are doing really well and the smell in the tent is devine. 💚🙏🌱🙏💚🙏🌱🙏💚

Out of the 4 girls I’ve transplanted two today, both white widows, I’ll do the other two Santa Marta haze’s in a weeks time when they have developed better roots, looking good, starting to flower. Bit of a slow start as seedlings due to being in hot soil, but we are well past that and cruising nicely now. 🤙🐞🙌

Auto pilot 🤷‍♂️🏻

Commencing week 5/Day 29: on Nov 21st Day 29 All is doing well now and a few more plants have roots in water but tomorrow is going to be well below freezing as well as the humidity has dipped very low Day 32 Still growing steady the cold temps and low humidity haven't hurt or slowed them down too much Day 34 Happy to say 6 out of 8 girls have pretty massive root masses developed in past week into bucket. I have been very lightly foliar feeding every day a slightly acidic low ppm solution. Lights were put back on timer since the temp and humidity are going back up I don't need the lights for heat. pH has remained steady for past two days in low to mid 5.8s. Is this too steady I wonder 🤔 I put on fans today today as well as under lighting LED strip. D35 Am check-in and all is going well. All 3 Gorilla Zkittlez are absolutely killing it, way bigger than the rest of the bunch. Although the 818 Headbands and the Raspberry Diesel are not far behind. Unfortunately both the Boss Hoggs seems to be runt-ish. One especially is really funny looking. But I always cheer for the under dog in the fight so who knows 😎 Turned off under lighting. Raised overhead LED Panels up 3-6 inches and re-oriented (angled) towards girls. *I've decided to break off the barely mentioned personal crosses into their own journal in the next few weeks in case anyone was watching or wondering, it's coming. I'll be editing this journal accordingly when the time comes to be more accurate and useful. Lastly I am adding a new journal today for "🍋🍰" aka Lemon Cake by Moxie. It's terpalicious 👅. super sugary and lemony on the nose. Does anyone from the US or elsewhere know what's "Country-Time" lemonade mix is?? It makes your mouth water and smells almost too much like the sugary lemonade mix. Stay tuned 💚🙏

Lots and lots of flowers. 😍 They are smelling really awesome. The buds are getting extremely sticky and its only day 53 sohey have plenty of time too swell up. I know my light set up isn't optimal but these girls don't seem to mind much. My yield might suffer slightly but the girls are happy and that's what matters most. Let me tell you guys a secret.... I have tried Ocean Forest and Happy Frog and... Fox Farm Strawberry Fields Potting Soil is the bomb for Autoflowers. This is just my first time using it so more research is needed but wow this stuff seems to grow um massive.

Day 57 5 litre water 10 mg sensi bloom ab 5 mg call mag 5 mg nirvana 5 mg owerdrive 5 mg b52 5 mg carboload 5 mg senszym 5 mg revive

The frost and smell are increasing daily. Photos/video taken 84 days after breaking soil, day 42 of flower.

**Semaine 8 : Huitième Semaine de Floraison – Phase Ripening (8-14 avril 2026)** **Note :** Mise à jour hebdomadaire. On entre officiellement dans la phase **ripening** (mûrissement). Les données TrolMaster et GrowOps confirment une transition très propre et contrôlée. Tout se passe bien, sans aucun souci. ### Contexte et Objectifs de la Semaine Semaine 8 sur 12 totales : on passe du bulking pur au **ripening**. L’objectif n’est plus de faire grossir les buds, mais de les densifier, de maximiser la production de trichomes et de laisser la plante terminer sa maturation. Steering : passage progressif vers **génératif** (irrigations moins fréquentes, dryback plus marqué la nuit, baisse progressive de tous les paramètres). Changements appliqués cette semaine : - PPFD diminué progressivement (750 → 550) - Température et humidité baissées - EC réduit (2.6 → 1.5) - UV maintenu à 90 min/jour pour continuer à booster terpènes et résine **Petit tips éducatif : Pourquoi baisser progressivement en ripening ?** En phase ripening (dernières 4-5 semaines), la plante arrête de pousser en taille et concentre son énergie sur la maturation des fleurs. - Baisser le PPFD/DLI évite le stress lumineux et permet aux trichomes de grossir sans brûler. - Baisser la température (surtout la nuit) et l’humidité favorise la synthèse des terpènes et réduit le risque de moisissure. - Réduire l’EC évite l’accumulation de sels en fin de cycle et améliore le goût final. - Passer en steering génératif (dryback plus long) force la plante à « finir » ses buds et à concentrer résine et cannabinoïdes. Fait correctement, cela donne des buds plus compacts, plus frosty et avec un profil terpénique plus prononcé. ### Observations des Plantes La plante dominante reste à **150 cm** avec une structure massive et une canopée bien remplie. Les buds sont **follement frosty** : couverts d’une épaisse couche de trichomes (sugar leaves très blanches), ce qui donne un aspect brillant et collant incroyable. La densité des buds est bonne et devient bien compacte, même si la taille reste raisonnable (j’ai déjà vu des buds plus gros sur d’autres variétés, mais ici la qualité prime). Odeur : très forte et agréable, mélange sucré/épicé/floral typique de Sticky Broccoli. Pistils majoritairement colorés et enroulés. Santé générale : parfaite, vert profond sur les feuilles restantes, zéro pest, zéro carence, zéro stress visible. Les plantes sont en pleine forme et concentrées sur la maturation. ### Paramètres Environnementaux (TrolMaster + GrowOps – synthèse semaine 8) - **Température jour** : 19-21 °C (cible 20 °C, live 20.3 °C) - **Température nuit** : 14-15 °C (baisse nette pour ripening) - **Humidité jour** : 48-58 % (cible 55 %, live 51.5 %) - **Humidité nuit** : 29-39 % - **VPD** : 0.9-1.3 kPa (live 1.16 kPa → bien adapté au ripening) - **PPFD** : 550 (baisse progressive, DLI ~24) - **UV Light** : 90 min/jour (maintenu) - **Far Red Light** : 30 min en fin de cycle - **CO₂** : setpoint 900 ppm jour - **EC solution** : 1.5 mS/cm (live ~1.62) - **pH solution** : 5.8-6.0 (live 6.27) - **Runoff EC** : 2.5-3 mS/cm - **Irrigation** : moins fréquente (transition générative) - **Runoff % daily** : 20-30 % - **Night dryback** : 20-30 % (augmenté pour ripening) - **Steering** : génératif (confirmé cette semaine) ### Nutrition et Irrigation (Soupe actuelle) La recette reste la même que les semaines précédentes, mais avec EC réduit à 1.5 : - Cocos A + B - CANNA PK 13/14 (dose légère) - Green Sensation suprimer - Pure Zym suprimer - Sugar Royal suprimer - Cal-Mag Amino 1 ml - Silica Force 1 ml - pH- pour ajuster Eau à ~20 °C. L’irrigation est maintenant moins fréquente pour accentuer le dryback nocturne et favoriser la concentration des buds. ### Problèmes et Ajustements **RAS total.** Aucune alerte, aucune carence, aucun excès. La baisse progressive de tous les paramètres se fait en douceur et les plantes répondent très bien. Le passage en ripening est maîtrisé. ### Plans pour la Semaine 9 - Continuer à baisser tranquillement : PPFD, température (surtout nuit), humidité et EC - Maintenir UV à 90 min/jour - Défoliation très légère si nécessaire (seulement les feuilles qui bloquent la lumière sur les buds inférieurs) - Photos rapprochées pour suivre la couleur des trichomes (passage vers ambré) - Préparer le flush (généralement à partir de la semaine 9-10 selon maturité) Ce journal sera mis à jour hebdomadairement. #GrowLegendary #Zamnesia #Plagron #EternityGrowCup2 Les buds sont magnifiquement frosty, denses et résineux, avec une odeur qui devient vraiment puissante. La qualité est au rendez-vous, même si la taille reste raisonnable. On continue la descente en douceur vers la récolte ! 🌱✨

Todo bien en general con este seguimiento.

Tottaly forgot to take some pics from the dutch passion strains this week... all I got is a group photo and short video! Could have been a bit more hands on with the training but seems a like a nice and even canopy it´s emerging 😍 Defoliated a bit and trimmed the lower branches.

soo one was way more photogenic than the other,AGAIN. 😅 I'm proud of me😁😁 oh and how DOPE is the timelapse? 🤯🔥🔥🔥

05.01 Happy new year! The official time of bloom, regarding to the breeder, is done (8 Weeks). I checked the trichomes and still see some clear and mostly cloudy trichomes, amber isn't really shown yet so I think they will need one to two more weeks. I will reduce my nutrient scheme now, check next week for the scheme if you are interested. Beside that I reduced the Light to ~650PPFD for the last ripening process.

Day13 report. looking much healthier than first run. lots of stretching, flowers coming in starting to bulk up. did lil lst n feed

Finally peaked at the roots and they look healthy, all bright white. Flowers forming on all plants. Dark Purple KUSH plants have adjusted and the buds are growing well on those. Added Mammoth P microbes beginning of last week and again in the reservoir change this week. So far so good. Trimmed them all.

week six flower everything looks great so far :D buds are filling out & terps going crazy!! CherryPie 1: smells fresh like minty CherryPie 2: smells like cherrys very fruity I water them with 1.5l every 48h the light I use was set to 100% and it hangs 80cm away from the tops
