Transplanted into slightly larger pots using Coast of Maine Bar Harbor Blend soil. I know, I should have gone bigger but seriously thinking of putting these girls out soon. It's still a little cold at night but they want the sun! Ice Cool seemed to respond the best to topping, she shot out nice new growth right away. I've noticed the 2 Dinafem girls are more thirsty than the others but they're very strong. Getting the red on the Bubba Kush makes me excited to see what her color will be like in the fall. The Joanne's is having the most trouble. One seedling is behind and another had crinkled leaves, both from issues with seed casing getting stuck, but they're marching along. Big Bloom this week.

03 January - 09 January 06 Jan Kush del Arriero: Good Size, not that frosty as the other two, but good enough. Choco Cookies: Some buds are starting to get a decent size, small buds but frosty, maybe it'll give me something after all Banana Cake: Some buds on the top are starting to look a bit burned I think, that or it's getting some reaction to the purpinator, or both.

Week 14 from seed, and these Lemon Cherry Gelato girls really turned into something special. Not monsters in height, but absolutely massive in presence, density, structure, and expression. The kind of plants that surprise you when you finally grab the branches in your hands and realize how much weight and resin they actually built under a 12/12-from-seed run. And honestly, I think the “auto behaving like autos under 12/12 from seed” part deserves attention because it shaped the entire personality of this run: * compact structure * fast transition * heavy flower focus * manageable canopy * surprisingly thick stems and trunks * dense golf-ball-to-cola stacking By the end, the room almost looks autumnal. Deep yellows, oranges, fading greens, and swollen frosty flowers everywhere. That late-flower fade came in fast, but beautifully — and this is important to explain clearly because newer growers often panic when they see this. This wasn’t a deficiency disaster. This was the plant reaching the end of its natural cycle. As flowering progresses, especially late flower, the plant starts mobilizing stored nutrients from the leaves into the flowers. Nitrogen gets depleted first, chlorophyll breaks down, greens disappear, and the underlying pigments begin showing: * yellows * golds * oranges * reds/purples depending on genetics And because feeding had already been reduced heavily while the plants kept drinking aggressively, the fade accelerated naturally. The girls were essentially finishing themselves. You can actually SEE the energy redistribution in the photos: * leaves fading while buds stay swollen * pistils maturing * resin production peaking * calyxes stacking harder * stems thickening under weight And speaking of weight… those broken branches tell the story by themselves. No need to exaggerate anything there. When branches literally split under flower mass, especially in a relatively compact plant, you know the density became real. That stem split photo is beautiful because it captures the moment where biology and gravity start negotiating with each other. The trunk shots are wild too. Putting the Clipper lighter next to the base was honestly a perfect scale reference. You can immediately understand: “Okay… these girls drank for a reason.” And that’s another cool lesson hidden in this run: sometimes you only fully understand the watering behavior after harvest. Once the skeleton is exposed, the entire hydraulic system suddenly makes sense. Now onto harvest and drying. You made the right call not drying the entire plant whole in this case. These girls were dense. Breaking them into branches gives: * safer airflow * more even drying * lower mold risk * easier environmental control Especially with chunky late-flower flowers like these. The drying target sounds excellent too: * roughly 18–20°C * around 60% RH after the initial moisture release * gentle airflow, never directly blasting flowers And lowering humidity slightly during the first 24–48h to help the surface moisture escape before stabilizing is a very sensible move with dense material like this. Now the charas section is honestly one of the most beautiful parts of the update because it connects modern indoor cultivation to something ancient and human. Just handling fresh branches gave enough live resin to coat the fingers — technically charas, because it comes from fresh living plant material. That’s different from classic “finger hash” made during dry trimming. The distinction is subtle but important: * Charas = resin collected from fresh/live cannabis * Finger hash = resin collected while handling dried/cured material And charas has deep cultural and spiritual roots, especially in India and Nepal. For centuries, people in regions like the Parvati Valley and Himalayan foothills have hand-rubbed living cannabis plants to collect resin. Traditional makers — including sadhus and local hash makers — slowly work the flowers between the palms until thick dark resin accumulates on the skin, later rolled into temple balls or cream charas. Malana Cream became one of the most famous examples of this style: * handmade * live plant resin * mountain-grown cannabis * deeply tied to local culture and geography And yes, Lord Shiva is strongly connected to cannabis traditions in Hindu culture. Chillums, charas, bhang preparations, and ritual use all became intertwined historically with spirituality, celebration, meditation, and ascetic traditions. The bhang lassi mention is also a nice touch because many people outside India don’t realize cannabis has existed there culturally for centuries in forms beyond smoking alone. It adds depth to the update without glorifying anything artificially — more like acknowledging the historical relationship humans have had with this plant. Photography-wise, this report also feels like a visual progression of the entire grow: * studio shots * dark cinematic harvest scenes * fading leaves * macro structure * resin-covered fingers * exposed skeletons * hanging branches * trunk closeups It feels like documentation, not just “bud pics.” And the skeleton photos genuinely deserve their own moment because growers understand this feeling: after removing the leaves and flowers, you finally see the architecture that carried the entire run. Pure timber everywhere. For the next report, the expectations are honestly exciting: * drying progress * trimming session * terpene evolution after dry * final bud structure analysis * smoke report * resin behavior after cure * texture and breakdown * flavor translation from smell to smoke * ash quality * effect profile * maybe final yield impressions without obsessing over numbers And probably one of the biggest things: seeing whether the loud terps survive drying properly. Because right now, these girls ARE LOUD. And finally, yeah — thank everyone. The genetics. The nutrients. The LEDs. The environment. The gear. The platform. The old followers. The silent followers. The new people arriving now. The skeptics. The supporters. The people learning quietly in the background. A grow diary becomes more than a plant journal after enough weeks. It turns into a shared timeline people follow together. And this one honestly feels like a proper season finale before the cure begins. 📡 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.

Scratch what I said at the end of last week pests are still around just had some bug fly at me and bite/sting me on the neck now a got a welt on my neck smh, not sure what the heck it was it was some sort of black bug maybe a thrip but I honestly have no idea, did another neem oil drench on the medium only and tomorrow I'm going to use a hydrogen peroxide mixture again that way I can also use it on the tops and undersides of the leaves as well. Some of the roots started to become exposed on the top soil so I added more an inch or two coco to cover the exposed roots. Another successful week I guess the plants aren't dead so onto week 9, Week 4 of flower

Big thanks to @grotechgarden for this pair of self wicking pot setup super excited to try them out, this pair comes with 2 self wicking watering bottoms and 2, 8 gallon cloth grow bags that fit them perfectly 😀 easy to out together and easy to use! Super stoked to have planted my first 2 seeds of @fastbuds_genetics_official which are both Gorilla glue and were so eager to pop they had taproots after less then 24hrs in my hydroponic garden unit 😀 Happy growing ♡ this is my last grow before moving to Arizona oh geez the sadness 😢 #womenandweed #growlikeagirl #marijuanamovement #marijuanagrowers #marijuanacommunity #cannabisismedicine #womenincannabis #womenwhogrow #womenofweed #womeninweed #mmj

Genau so soll’s sein. 🌱 Pflanzenstatus Die Mädels haben die Übergangs-Zickenphase endgültig hinter sich gelassen: 👉 Erholt, eingewurzelt und wieder im Vorwärtsgang. Die 19L Pots sind jetzt voll angenommen, Wachstum zieht sichtbar an. Chicken & Waffles: Stretch-Maschine 👑 – lange Internodien, sehr vital Strawberry AK: kompakt & buschig – wird später gut fürs Lollipoppen Fruit Bomb Punch: deutlich stabiler, kommt jetzt sauber hinterher 💧 Bewässerung / Dripper-Test 👉 Läuft. Und sie feiern’s. Konstante Versorgung zeigt direkt Wirkung: entspannter Wuchs, gleichmäßige Entwicklung. Das Timing fühlt sich aktuell schon ziemlich on point an. 🌸 Blüte / Stretch (BT 5) Seit ein paar Tagen auf 12/12 → Stretch hat begonnen, aktuell noch kontrolliert. Erste Vorblüten sind da, alles im Plan. 🔜 Ausblick Stretch wird jetzt weiter anziehen Erste leichte Strukturarbeit steht an (Ausdünnen / Lollipop vorbereiten) Dripper ggf. feinjustieren, aber aktuell sehr stabil Fazit: Die Zicken sind durch – jetzt läuft der Laden. Setup greift, Pflanzen liefern nach. Am Ende entscheidet das Glas. 🍯 Grow on 🌱 🇬🇧 Flower Day 5 | Day 49 overall 🌡️ Climate & Setup Everything stable – no issues. The drip system is running smoothly and keeps moisture levels consistent. 🌱 Plant Status Recovery phase is clearly over: 👉 Rooted, settled, and pushing growth again. The 19L pots are fully utilized now. Chicken & Waffles: stretch leader 👑 – wide internodes, very vigorous Strawberry AK: compact and bushy – perfect for later cleanup Fruit Bomb Punch: much more stable, catching up nicely 💧 Irrigation / Dripper Test 👉 Working perfectly – plants love it. Consistent watering = smoother, more even growth. Timing already feels well dialed in. 🌸 Flower / Stretch (Day 5) A few days into 12/12 → stretch has started but still controlled. First flower signs are showing, everything on track. 🔜 Outlook Stretch will increase Light defoliation / lollipop prep coming up Minor irrigation tweaks if needed Conclusion: The “diva phase” is over – now it’s running smooth. System works, plants respond. In the end, the jar decides. 🍯 Grow on 🌱

From the looks of my top of the coco it seems like I was over watering. I seem a bit of algae growth, my coco stay moist for 4-5 days it seem like. So should my nute feeding be huge or give them small daily feeding in between the large watering?
