I learned a lot from this cycle, I'm really happy with the results, look at those beautiful succulent buds! 🐇🌱💚

Week 8 (1.18.26--1.25.26) took photos on 1.22.26 1.16.26 changed nutes to only T.A. FinalPart for final yield push 1.2 ec

Hi everyone :-) This week a lot of nice things happened in the flower tent :-) Everyone looks super nice, and is growing stronger and more beautiful week by week 😍👌. The blue cheese smells like a dream ;-) As usual from this variety 👍. The kosher tangie is also very, very tasty 👏🏻. Both got Pk 13/14 this week for the last time :-) Everyone else is developing very well 👍, That will be the last diary with several strains together :-) In future everyone will come individually 👌. I wish you a lot of fun with the videos, have a nice weekend, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 😎👌

8/12 - Dropped 3 seeds into RO water to germinate 8/13 - Placed seeds into moist paper towel and into plastic bag to germinate on heat mat. 8/15 - All three seeds sprouted. In the morning I prepared three 3-gallon pots with Roots Organics Original Soil and Nature's Living Soil Autoflower mix. I will be doing Super Soil method for this grow. I filled the bottom one third of the pot with regular soil, then added 1 lb of Nature's Living soil and mixed it in. Then filled the rest of the pot with the regular soil. I topped it with Mosquito Bits for added BTI for pest prevention. Finally, I wet the pots down with RO water and Organic Black Strap Molasses. After about 8 hours, I planted the three seeds and placed them in the 4x5 tent with a humidity dome to keep in moisture. 8/16 - Two of the three already have their true leaves. So, I have removed the humidity domes from those two. 8/17 - The last of the GSCs have sprouted her true leaves so I have removed her dome. I sprayed them lightly again today with RO water and molasses.

painted the senecas for sure, culled the male. both turkish are pretty well seeded out, i’m thinking maybe 20-30 seeds each, 15 fully formed and good. the senecas look lightly pollinated, maybe 15-20, 10 fully formed and good. still will be usable beans. next run after this will be good, hopefully stable genetics. gonna try for a turkish male and focus on the turkish x afghan cross, while saving the seneca x turkish for later.

Cut her on day 74 She grew amazingly! She even handled my over feeding like a pro! Her buds and some of the beat to sit and stare at! Her colors are vibrant which sparkle more off her resinous gleam! She has a very pleasant sweet smell. Thank you so very much Clarissa and Weedseedsexpress for these awesome beans! I am very grateful for the opportunity! 😁💚 They have quite the selection for any needs! Go get ya some beans, always got a deal! www.weedseedsexpress.com Happy growing and ty for the support! 💚😻🤘

still recovering from the nitrogen def will flip into flower next week still feeding ph 6.5 and 800-900ppm

This is her last day in a vegetative state! Tomorrow I will be flipping her, and hopefully I will get some nice buds at the beginning of 2026 :) I did a bit more defoliation and lollipopping — although I'm still not sure if I'm doing it correctly. If someone has any tips, please share. Nevertheless, she has many branches already, maybe not as many as expected for a 9-week photoperiod plant with two prunings; however, I managed to get all of them to the same height using LST and a ScrOG net. Given her Sativa genetics and my small 60x60x120 tent, I am flipping now to manage the inevitable vertical "stretch" during the first few weeks. I think everything is ready for the flowering stage.

🌱 Black Diamond Auto – Plant B | Week 4 | 12/12 From Seed Another Diamond Begins to Show Its Shape 💎 Welcome back to another update from my 8×8 Adventure, where every plant gets the opportunity to tell its own story. This is Black Diamond Auto – Plant B, the sister of Plant A. While they share the same genetics, the same environment, the same feeding schedule and the same light, it’s already fascinating to watch how differently they choose to grow. Plant B has developed into a much more compact structure. She isn’t chasing height like her sister—instead she’s building a dense, symmetrical framework with tight internodal spacing and a very healthy canopy. Sometimes the smallest plants surprise us the most once flowering really begins. Both plants are being grown under my favorite challenge: 12/12 from seed. For those joining the diary for the first time, this means the plants have been under a 12 hours on / 12 hours off light schedule from the day they germinated. Instead of spending weeks in vegetative growth under 18 or 20 hours of light, they naturally transition into flowering much sooner, creating unique plant structures while allowing more harvests throughout the year. Every run teaches something new, and this comparison between two sisters should be another interesting chapter. ⸻ 🌱 Environment This week the room remained very stable despite the summer temperatures. • Day temperature: 33°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 63% • pH: 6.1 • EC: 1.35 mS/cm • CO₂: 639 ppm The plants continue growing inside 15 L pots, receiving approximately 1.1 L of nutrient solution per day. ⸻ 💧 Hand-Watering vs AutoPot Unlike her sister, Plant B is still being hand-watered. Both plants receive exactly the same nutrient recipe, but the irrigation method is different. This should make for an interesting comparison later in the grow. Hand-watering gives me complete control over when and how much solution she receives, allowing the substrate to go through gentle wet and dry cycles before each irrigation. Her sister, meanwhile, is growing inside an AutoPot system. The AutoPot uses an AquaValve, a clever mechanical valve that automatically opens and closes depending on the water level inside the tray. As the plant drinks, the valve refills the tray without pumps, electricity or timers, allowing the roots to take exactly what they need whenever they need it. Will continuous bottom feeding produce faster growth than traditional hand-watering? That’s one of the questions this grow hopes to answer. ⸻ 🌿 Training No topping. No supercropping. No heavy stress. This week has been all about Low Stress Training (LST). Branches continue being gently bent outward to improve light penetration across the canopy while maintaining an even structure. Every day I spend a few minutes adjusting stems, leaf tucking large fan leaves and opening small windows of light for the developing side branches. It’s amazing how much a few careful adjustments can change the architecture of a plant without causing any significant stress. The goal is simple: * create an even canopy * expose future flowering sites * maximize airflow * let every branch earn its place under the LEDs Plant B has responded beautifully, staying compact while becoming wider with every passing day. ⸻ 🌸 The First Signs of Flower By the end of Week 4 the first pistils are finally appearing. This is always one of my favorite moments in a 12/12 from seed project. The transition happens naturally, almost quietly, until one morning those first white hairs appear and you know the next chapter has officially begun. Stretch is only beginning, but her structure suggests she’ll remain shorter and bushier than Plant A. Two sisters. Same genetics. Same room. Same nutrients. Yet completely different personalities. That’s exactly why I love documenting every individual plant. ⸻ 🍽️ Feeding This week’s recipe remained simple and consistent: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L EC remained at 1.35, with pH adjusted to 6.1 before every watering. She continues responding with vigorous growth, healthy color and strong new shoots throughout the canopy. ⸻ 📸 Final Thoughts Watching siblings develop side by side is one of the most rewarding parts of growing. Plant A seems determined to become the taller, more vigorous sister. Plant B is taking a different path—shorter, denser and incredibly well balanced. Neither is better. They’re simply expressing different sides of the same genetics, and that’s exactly what makes these side-by-side diaries so enjoyable. The stretch has only just begun, flowering is officially underway, and I’m excited to see whether hand-watering can keep pace with the AutoPot system over the coming weeks. Only time—and plenty of photos—will tell. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You As always, thank you to everyone following this adventure from around the world. To GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers can learn from one another. To Plagron for the nutrients that continue feeding this project. To the incredible breeders behind Black Diamond Auto. To the teams behind the LEDs, the equipment and every tool helping make this grow possible. And finally, thank you to every person who stops by these diaries. Whether you’ve been here since day one, discovered the journey this week, leave comments, ask questions, share advice, quietly read along, or even challenge my methods—you all contribute to making this project better. Every interaction is another opportunity to learn, improve and keep growing together. Growers Love and see you all next week. Happy growing. 🌱💚

It's here, Week 5 Day 39 from seed. Busy this week but we have officially started flowering boys and girls! Week 6 updates will be more in detail. See ya soon!

Welcome growfessors to another weekly update on the outdoors grow! LSD and Green Crack are budding nicely, with LSD slightly a head. Both ladies got fed Gaia Green power bloom and they got a big drink of water. Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽🌳💚

I’m waiting for a humidifier to set the perfect humidity level for my plants so the first week will be a little bit difficult for them but they will be happy afterwards

Bilder und weitere Informationen folgen im weiteren Verlauf. Ich bin soweit zufrieden, die Ladys hängen jetzt zum Trocknen.

It's time for a thrilling week 4 flower report on my magnificent Medusa F1 from Royal Queen Seeds. This girl is an absolute monster, and I'm not just talking about her size! She's bursting with buds that are starting to resemble baseballs scattered throughout the garden. It's like a home run derby in there! Now, let's talk about the power of mass defoliation. I carefully stripped away those excess leaves, creating space for the buds to shine. It's like giving them a VIP pass to the spotlight. By removing unnecessary foliage, we channel the plant's energy towards bud production. It's like a backstage makeover, where the stars of the show get all the attention. The result? Bigger, denser, and more potent buds that'll knock your socks off! I mean my Medusa's buds are growing so big that they're starting to look like baseballs. But hey, let's be grateful they're not golf balls, or else we'd have quite the game to play in the garden! I want to give a special shout out to Royal Queen Seeds for providing me with this incredible opportunity to grow the Medusa F1. Their genetics are truly exceptional, giving us the chance to cultivate plants that are nothing short of spectacular. Thank you, Royal Queen Seeds, for being the game-changers in the cannabis world! Stay tuned for more updates on the awe-inspiring journey with my Medusa F1. Until then, keep growing, keep smiling, and enjoy the amazing genetics that Royal Queen Seeds has to offer. Wishing you all bountiful harvests and an abundance of green goodness! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - RQS MEDUSA F1 Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

She boasts uniform grow traits, mouthwatering aromas and flavours, and plenty of potency. If you're looking to bring stable, elongated plants into your room, tent, or garden, look no further. Mouthwatering Aromas, High Potency, and Mid-Size Plants Though she won't turn you to stone like the mythical goddess after which she's named, Medusa F1 is bound to get you plenty stoned in her own special way. Combining genetics from inbred lines deriving from Sugar Magnolia, a thick and sweet indica, and American Beauty, a fast, fruity hybrid loved for its well-balanced, positive high, the result is an autoflowering F1 variety that produces fresh flavours, a unique cannabinoid profile, and large yields. A very aromatic cultivar with a vibrant concentration of terpenes bearing notes of fresh mint alongside an upfront peppery kick, backed up by hints of fresh fruit, berries, and tangy fuel. Her thick, frosty flowers consistently produce high levels of THC and CBG, as well as high concentrations of myrcene, ocimene, farnesene, and caryophyllene. As a result, Medusa F1 has strong effects that relax and stone the body from head to toe (brought on by particularly high concentrations of myrcene and farnesene) while motivating the mind with an uplifting, creative, and motivating kick (thanks to high concentrations of ocimene). Medusa F1 seeds produce elongated autoflowering plants with long, strong branches and well-spaced internodes. Plants regularly grow up to 80–85cm tall and boast a fast flowering time of just 42–45 days (72 days from germination to harvest). Thanks to her genetics, Medusa F1 produces plenty of thick flowers with big, swollen calyxes that make for very easy trimming. Medusa F1 is very stable, handling stress and unfavourable growing conditions with ease, though she is somewhat susceptible to Botrytis, so make sure to keep tabs on the humidity in your grow room/garden

I’m overjoyed with the phenos this strain is producing, strong vibrant purples with some serious flavour profiles! Scent Profiles we have: Candy Lemon Sherbet 🍬🍋 Sweet & Piney Diesel 🍭🌲⛽️ Sweet & Tangy Tropical Punch 🏝️🥊 Alongside this, these beauties are the frostiest and the most insanely dense koala looking nugs I’ve ever produced!

The girls is grow well, the bud look biggest this weed. Some leaves especialy the bottom leaves have started to become yellow surely because of the light penetration. However everything look good for me

Well thats my grow diary. I hope it ends up being informative of helpful to someone somewhere along the line. I have more grows going, but I am going to skip on diaries for now. See you next time.
