Die Pandora legt allmählich an Dichte zu und die Buds werden immer kompakter. Im Schnitt performed die Pflanze etwas besser als die Skywalker OG Auto. Es sieht auch so aus als würde die Pflanze etwas mehr Gewicht entwickeln. Dafür benötigt sie insgesamt länger als ihre Kollegin.

Week 5 (20/02 - 26/02) I made no progress with the LST last week, hoping to do better the next grow. Some secondary branches developed more than usually but not as expected. I haven't been effective enough with the training. The last day of the past week, the two fat banana moved into pre-flowering, while the blue cheese is still into vegetative stage. During this week, I will start to add bio-bloom and top-max together with the bio-grow. The light will be to 40 cm from top of the plants at 100% of its power. No changes to the heating/cooling parameters. 20/02 D28: - 21/02 D29: watering day. Added to 2.5 liters of tap water: 2ml Bio-Grow, 1ml Bio-Bloom, 1ml Top-Max. This evening, being secondary branches still flexible, I've tried to horizontally extend them with ropes in order to give them more light, let's see what happens in next two days. 22/02 D30: leafs sprayed with tap water 23/02 D31: watering day. 1 liter of tap water only each plant. Evening check: plants became thirsty; the soil seems to be almost dry even if I watered them this morning. 24/02 D32: watering day. Added to 2.5 liters of tap water: 2ml Bio-Grow, 2ml Bio-Bloom, 1ml Top-Max. 25/02 D33: leafs sprayed with water. 1 liter of tap water each because they are growing and drinking a lot. 26/02 D34: Added to 2 liters of tap water: 2ml Bio-Grow, 2ml Bio-Bloom, 1ml Top-Max. They seem to grow well and faster. The blue cheese seems to be in pre-flowering, almost a week later than the two fat banana.

9/10: The bigger one is the 2nd biggest seedling in the garden. The small one has great form and should catch up eventually. I'll prob transplant them in several more days. 9/11: I waited to long to transplant them and they have root problems to some degree or another...too wet for too long. I transplanted the bigger one into a 3 gallon pot and the smaller one into a 2.30 gallon pot, and observed about 50% brownish roots on the bigger one. 😕 I powdered the planting holes with myco, tricho, and other goodness. I added two Mars Hydro 150w lights, and a 60w 6500k LED panel light since they are all spread out now. The average CCT is still a little over 4800k, even though the Mars are a little warmer color temp than the Viparspectras. 9/12: Between the root problems and the transplant, they looked horrible, so I sprayed them with BoomBoom Spray today and will do a good root drench tomorrow with BushDoctor Boomerang. They looked better by the end of day, but still have a ways to go to get back on track... 9/17: I fed them boomerang only twice this week, and gave also them kangaroots yesterday. They are both looking strong and branching well. The smaller one is catching up quickly now. I'll prolly flip to 13/11 with emerson effect in the next couple of days.

Day 36 08/08/24 Thursday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with Plagron PK13-14. Showing her pre stretch and pistils 😍 Day 38 10/08/24 Saturday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today again with calmag. 400ml with run off now. I will update pictures and videos tonight ✌️💚 Day 39 11/08/24 Sunday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today again with calmag. 400ml with little run off. Pistils forming in bunches now seeing beginning of bud formations 😍 Day 40 12/08/24 Monday Feed today, it was warm again so they drank the whole 300ml each so I have topped up another 150ml to see run off to prevent salt build up. All thriving 😍✌️💚 Video uodate

I saw lots of development this week. I've top dressed with bat guano and alfalfa meal this grow to fortify the soil. They seem to like the advanced nutrients so far as well. It's getting a little smelly in the tent💪🏾

Die 6. Blütewoche hat begonnen und es ist schon echt gut Volumen vorhanden. Beim öffnen des Zeltes kommt ein sehr starker Geruch entgegen! Ohne Aktivkohlefilter wäre es unmöglich das zu managen 😂! Es stehen weiterhin keine Arbeitsschritte an, außer alle 3-4 Tage Wasser + Nährstoffe zu verabreichen. Spätestens in zwei Wochen beginne ich die Trichome nach Reife zu checken. 1. Januar…. Happy new year 💚❤️ Meine Runtz hat nun doch gezwittert und mir das Zelt bestäubt… erste Samen werden erkennbar… bin grad etwas traurig aber it is what it is… wären nur noch 4 Wochen gewesen :(

Had issues with one of my mars 1600, seems some leds are broken or burnt out already and the light has only been used for 8 months. Talking with my supplier to see about switching it out or repair.

Fed her a little bit of 550ppm so that the medium stays moist until I come back. Fans on low so that the humidity actually stays. Post coming back i watered before lights out . Seem to be getting a little nutrient burn. Need to make the feed one by one and not for all plants at once

Fade has fully set in now, just keeping an eye on the trichromes for harvest time. Plants are nice and frosty and smells very sweet. Was getting worried about harvest time and drying / curing as I go away for 2 weeks November 6th. Invested in some Grove bags for the cure so this has reduced my anxiety about leaving my harvest for so long during the beginning of cure. Heard good things about them, interested in your opinion drop a comment.

# GMO Cookies Served with Extra Curiosity 🙂 — Week 13 | 12/12 From Seed Week 13 from seed. Or, if you prefer to count it like we do around here, around week 8 flower on this 12/12 from seed experiment. And honestly? This is one of those weeks where the room starts speaking for itself. Before anything else, a quick recap for everyone just joining the journey: This entire run was done under a 12/12 light cycle directly from seed. No traditional vegetative stage, no long recovery periods, no massive training sessions trying to force the plants into shape. Just letting the plant express itself naturally under flowering light conditions from the beginning, while guiding rather than controlling the process. The idea was never maximum yield at all costs. The idea was curiosity. Curiosity about morphology. Curiosity about structure. Curiosity about behavior. Curiosity about what happens when we step back a little and simply observe. And now, at week 13, the room is changing fast. The funny thing is that if we looked only at the environmental numbers, some people would probably panic immediately. Conditions are not exactly “by the book.” But the plants clearly did not read the same books, because they are reacting beautifully. That’s another reminder that context matters more than perfection, and observation matters more than blindly chasing charts. At this stage, we are basically doing almost nothing besides enzymes and patience. No feedings anymore. Just Pure Zym. Letting the plant finish the story herself. And you can see it everywhere now. The hairs are changing color. The trichome heads are maturing. The leaves are fading into yellows and lighter greens. The buds are swelling, getting heavier, denser, louder. This is no longer the “building” phase. This is the “finishing” phase. And honestly, it’s beautiful to watch. This week was also special because we took her into the studio for a proper photo session. We slowed down, shared some medicine, observed the details, looked at the flowers under different lights, different angles, different moods. Some plants stop feeling like “projects” near the end and start feeling more like personalities, and this GMO definitely has that energy. Not harvested yet though. Close. Very close. But not yet. This is one of those important weeks where observation matters more than action. There’s a temptation near the finish line to interfere too much, but right now the plant is telling us clearly to simply watch, smell, learn, and wait a little longer. The fade happening across the room feels completely aligned with the moment: - minimal feeding, - end-of-life expression, - natural senescence, - energy redistribution, - and final ripening. Nothing feels forced. Nothing feels rushed. And that’s probably the best part of this entire run. Now the big question becomes: Will the next report be the harvest report? Honestly… maybe. 😄 We are extremely close now, but we still want to let the plant tell us when she’s truly ready instead of harvesting according to impatience or calendar numbers alone. The next few days will be mostly observation: - trichome development, - flower density, - aroma evolution, - overall plant posture, - and that final “feeling” growers know when a plant is almost done speaking. As always, huge love to everyone following this strange and beautiful little experiment. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the support. To GrowDiaries for giving growers a place to document these journeys. To the community. To the curious ones. To the skeptical ones. To the longtime followers and OGs. To the people discovering the diary today. To the silent viewers. To the supporters. To the critics. To everyone. Seriously — thank you. At the end of the day, this was never just about growing flowers. It was about sharing the process, the observations, the mistakes, the experiments, the learning, the calm moments, and the curiosity behind all of it. Wishing everyone healthy plants, peaceful minds, good harvests, and a little extra curiosity on their own journeys too. 🌱 📡 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.
