Week 11 From Seed | Week 6 Flower 🌸 (Sour Diesel) Quick Recap — How We Got Here This run has been 12/12 from seed—no veg, no safety net. And this Sour Diesel made that very clear from the beginning. Early stress slowed her down, and in this style of run, that time doesn’t come back. Just like an autoflower, every day counts—and she felt that. She stayed smaller than the rest. Lower water intake. Less stretch. But she never stopped pushing. She adapted, stabilized, and found her rhythm again. ⸻ Current State — Week 6 Flower Now she’s showing her true character. • Temps: 26°C • RH: 60% • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 • Water intake: ~1.2L/day (14.5L soil) Not the biggest drinker—but steady and consistent. We performed a light defoliation, opening her up and preparing her structure for the weeks ahead. And she answered back: Compact, dense buds Noticeable frost building That classic Sour Diesel energy starting to come through Small frame—but real presence. ⸻ Observations • Tight stacking despite limited size • Strong resin production for her stage • Healthy recovery after early stress • Efficient metabolism relative to her size • Terpene profile already hinting through She didn’t win in size— but she’s absolutely delivering in quality. ⸻ The Real Talk This is what 12/12 from seed teaches you. There’s no time to recover mistakes early on. Every stress moment leaves a mark. And this Sour Diesel carries that story. But more importantly—she shows what recovery looks like. Not every plant needs to dominate the room to earn respect. Some earn it by fighting back and still finishing strong. ⸻ Looking Ahead — Week 7 Next week we expect: • Buds tightening further • Frost becoming more visible • Terpenes getting louder—true Diesel character coming out What not to expect: • No major size increase • No catching up to the larger plants And that’s perfectly fine. Now it’s about honoring her finish, not comparing her journey. ⸻ Gratitude 🤝 Big respect to everyone involved: • The genetics — Sour Diesel showing resilience and character • The gear — LEDs, tent, airflow, all working in harmony • The sponsors — for the continued support • The GrowDiaries platform — for letting us document the real journey And to the community: OGs, long-time followers, new supporters, Those showing love and those bringing questions— all of you are part of this. ⸻ Sour Diesel.

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.

It's been 68 days of flower now and they only got another week or week and a half left. I have been flushing them for 10 days now. Almost there 🤘🤘. I'm very happy how they have turned out, the color, the smell, the crystals 👍. Very proud of what I created. VERY IMPRESSED with the fc4800 and I was already very happy with the tsw2000 👍 The gals are still loving the new fc4800, TSW2000 and their new 8x8 mars hydro grow tent as much as I do👍 leaves are sticking straight up towards the light. Love how easy the zippers are to open and close. Nice and strong and guaranteed to last. It has extra material on the backside of the zipper that helps for light leaksand enough ports and vents for anything you need in it👍. the tsw2000 is still going strong and is also a very good light. Its been going almost nonstop for 6 months and still working the same as when I got it👍. not much heat off both lights but the fc4800 is alot cooler and the heat-sinks work extremely well. I have it daisy chained to the tsw2000 and 1 dimmer controls the other and i don't need to be reaching in too far to dim the other light, it's awesome and I can't wait to buy more lights to daisy 4 together👍. I would recommend this light to everyone that grows with leds and have trouble with temperatures getting too high. Even if you grow with HPS lights I think any mars hydro light is a MUST TRY. I like how heavy both lights are because I know it means they are built soild and strong 💪. Very good sign with the frost they are starting to get thanks to bith mars hydro lights. I can notice more frost under the fc4800 and I'm thinking it's from the UV DIODES they put on the fc4800 👍. 2 days ago they all smelt like my nuken, sweet marshmallows. But now I can smell the monkey dough and gorilla glue and skunk monkey coming through👍. I touched a bud on the gorilla and monkey fingers smelt like fruit loops👍 really pleasant smell. Lingered on my fingers for atleast 30 min. I'm glad mars hydro is under priced compared to some brands and for how popular they are. usually companies would charge more. Thanks mars you guys are awesome 🤘🥁🎸. I'm getting a new exhaust fan soon. An 8 inch that will work alot better than my 4 inch lol. Wayyy to small for a 8x8 Grow Tent. Dehumidifier is going almost non stop to try and get the humidity down. I love how both lights on 100% power only raise my temperature 2 or 3 degrees 👍. You can rest your hand on the lights and not much heat comes off them. Obviously there is some heat but for the brightness of the lights and only raising the temp that much is awesome 👌.  And if I wanted to I could remove the driver from the fc4800 and run it on the outside of my tent because the cord is so long but 2 or 3 degrees is barely nothing👍. The girls are starting to bulk up abit now and only 3 weeks of flowering, these lights are awesome 👌.  My last run of monkey dough and gorilla glue didn't start showing alot of crystals until week 4. These were only 2.5 weeks and I started noticing some frost. Next week I will be able to tell more about what these custom bred seeds will be like. I love how the smell is changing now. Didn't want all them to smell like nuken marshmallows lol. It's awesome that I can get right inside the tent to do any work i need👍. Even if I wanted an 4x8 tent. I'd rather this 8x8 because it's so easy to work with the plants and have so much room to move around and massive headroom when I'm in there chillin with the gals🤣🤘.

3rd week - let's goooo🤙🏽🤙🏽 decided to use HPS only and it shows the result. So now devotchka is slow in grow for 1 week. but i believe that HPS will compensate this time. Started to add nutrients. Will use Biobizz by the end of harvest. In total I love genetics, girl is stable, loves her new lamp. Hope all growing will not face troubles any more. Have a nice week, guy! 😊

Всему пиздец. 2 Куста НЕ ЗАЦВЕТАЮТ / 2 plant no flower!!!! hight 120cm, nitrogen deficiency, short distance to the lamp. at the end of the week we made an upgrade of growbox. Так как парочка кустов не зацветает, перешел на принудительное цветение, режим 12-12. В последний раз поливаю бактериями. because several plants do not bloom, switched to 12-12 mode, the last time I pour water with bacteria.

Growing well so far. This week I added some LST to encourage outward growth. Things started to get a little wonky towards the end of the week bit once she starts to stretch out i think she will look a little neater.

Hello my friends 😇 Purple Lemonade had been flush today !! She looks beautiful that purpul-dark buds are amazing. In next 3 or 4 days I will cut her 😇 Cinderella and Bruce Banner drinking less from a avg. 1.7l/day to 1.25l/day, so end of flowering for this two will be in around 2 weeks. Cinderella looks really good, she should give a good harvest. Update: Day 67 Happy time !! Harvest time !! Finally Purple Lemonade get to the final point. At this moment there is 0% of lemon scents, BUT !! There is a beautiful smell of berries, chocolate and leather in the air. I can't wait to try it All the best, You Lovely Girls Growers 😇 💪 🙏

🍊 Correction time! Alright guys, I have to admit — I totally mixed things up somewhere during transplant 😅 Turns out this one here is actually Sweet Mandarine Z, not Mental Rainbow. And the one that’s listed under Sweet Mandarine Z is in fact the Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Unfortunately, GrowDiaries doesn’t let me edit the strain name anymore (thanks, GD 😩), but I wanted to make it clear for everyone following along. 👉 So just to keep it transparent: – This diary = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – The other one = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Both are from Sweet Seeds, and both are turning out absolutely amazing 🔥 If you enjoy my grows and want to see even more updates, follow me on Instagram: @Dendegrow 🌿📸 I post there more often — with extra tips, tricks & grow insights 🌱💡 🍊 Korrektur-Post! Okay Leute, ich muss zugeben — ich habe beim Umtopfen wohl die Pflanzen vertauscht 😅 Diese hier ist nämlich Sweet Mandarine Z, und nicht Mental Rainbow. Und die, die unter Sweet Mandarine Z läuft, ist in Wahrheit die Mental Rainbow 🌈😂 Leider kann man bei GrowDiaries den Sortennamen nachträglich nicht mehr ändern (danke dafür 😩), aber ich wollte das hier klarstellen, damit alle Bescheid wissen. 👉 Zur Übersicht: – Dieses Tagebuch = Sweet Mandarine Z 🍊 – Das andere = Mental Rainbow 🌈 Beide stammen von Sweet Seeds – und beide entwickeln sich absolut großartig 🔥 Wenn euch meine Grows gefallen, folgt mir gerne auch auf Instagram: @Dend 🌿📸 Dort poste ich noch mehr Inhalte mit Infos, Tipps und Tricks rund ums Growen 🌱💡

The smell on this one is next-level for real! I got 2–3 different phenos, but they all carry that same loud scent I’d describe it as sweet and fruity I honestly can’t wait to smoke it, and judging by the insane layer of trichomes she’s rocking, I already know she’s gonna hit hard.😝😝

This was the girls last week! I decided to call them finished on day 63 the tricomes are almost all cloudy, with a small amount of amber. I’ve learned that they continue to degrade as you dry and cure your flower, so I’m trying something new for me, and pull them a little earlier than I usually would. In addition, after watching a podcast (Dude Grows Show) if you don’t know, check it out… I decided to run the lights for 18 hours instead of 12/12 for the last 5 days before harvest. The idea behind this, is to stress the plant enough to increase its natural sunblock/protections, which would be terpenes and tricomes just before you harvest, while also possibly quickening the finishing time for your plant. The group was discussing the benefits of this (listed above) while some already had implemented these practices when finishing plants. The recommended time to run extra light time would be around the last 5-9 days of the plant, without having any nanners or weirdness happening with your plants. Anyways, they finished amazing, sticky, stinky and heavy ❤️ the Terps are crazy on these strains….Harvest details to come. Thanks for stopping by 💚🇨🇦👊

shortest plant is 50cm tallest being 95cm. They are all doing wonderfully, most of autos are budding nicely and all of the photoperiods are ready to flower. looking very promising. i am changing my light schedule to 14-10 to kick these girls into flower.. this will give the plants an extra 17% (or so) a day under the lights.rather than 12-12. i cant be fussy as i only have one grow space but if my research is correct these should grow beautifully! the autos are well ahead so shouldnt affect my harvest weight too much. like i say i cant be fussy! thanks for looking

Permanent Marker received pretty much the same treatment as the Rainbow Melon and is responding just as well. Transition into flower was introduced gently with Bud Ignitor alongside the base Advanced Nutrients lineup. She’s growing very compact and bushy with a super dense structure. The canopy filled out heavily through LST, creating a thick layer of tops all competing for the light. Internode spacing stays tight and the side branching is developing beautifully. She’s also drinking a lot and handling the nutrients without any issues. Overall a very vigorous plant that reacts perfectly to training and keeps pushing strong growth every day.
