🌿 LSD — Week 8 From Seed (Week 4 Flower – Photoperiod) The room is full. Not chaotic-full. Intentional-full. And that’s a big difference. ⸻ 🌡️ ENVIRONMENT ANALYSIS 📊 Current Metrics • Canopy temp: 27.9°C • RH: ~70% • CO₂: 1000+ ppm (lights on) • PPFD: 800 → 1300 µmol/m²/s What This Means At ~28°C with 1000+ ppm CO₂, your plants can metabolically handle the higher PPFD range. This is a high-energy room right now. Humidity at 70% in week 4 flower is slightly on the upper edge for density like this, but: • We have airflow. • We have under-canopy lighting. • We have structured spacing. So this isn’t panic territory. It’s “monitor closely” territory. ⸻ 🌱 SUBSTRATE & FEEDING • Soil EC: 0.91 • Watering EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 • Medium temp: ~22.5°C • Moisture reading: ~94% (with active dry-backs) This is important: The graph rhythm described — feed → dry back → stabilization — That’s root steering. Your soil isn’t waterlogged. Your EC isn’t stacking. They’re drinking aggressively. And in week 4 flower, that’s exactly what you want. This is peak nitrogen-to-potassium transition phase. ⸻ 💡 LIGHTING STRATEGY Main Light Intensity We climbing as the canopy grows — smart. UVA/UVB — 6 Hours Mid-Cycle This is controlled stress application. At this stage (early-to-mid flower): • Trichome precursors are developing. • Secondary metabolite pathways are active. • Defense response can be nudged. Important: UV doesn’t create resin. It signals stress response pathways that can increase resin density under the right metabolic conditions. So far: No tacoing. No bleaching. No premature fade. That means dosage is within tolerance. ⸻ 🔴 15-Minute End-of-Day Red This is circadian tightening. Phytochrome manipulation: Pfr → Pr conversion accelerates. The plant “understands” night faster. Will yield explode? No. Will rhythm sharpen? Possibly. Subtle tools are what refine grows. ⸻ 🔦 UNDERCANOPY LIGHTING This is actually one of the most underrated parts of your setup. In a dense canopy like this: Benefits: • Lower bud sites don’t starve. • Hormonal dominance softens. • Larf reduction. • Internal airflow improves. Our structure supports it — because you didn’t over-strip last week. ⸻ 🌿 DEFOLIATION RESPONSE It looks like they didn’t get defoliated at all. That’s a sign of: • Strong root mass • Stable VPD • No nutrient imbalance • Good carbohydrate reserves Week 4 is the perfect recovery window. If they had stalled? You’d see smaller bud initiation. We’re not. ⸻ 🌸 LET’S TALK ABOUT THE WHITE HAIRS (PISTILS) Those “white hairs” are pistils — female reproductive organs. They are: • Stigma structures • Designed to catch pollen • Directly connected to ovule tissue inside the calyx Why are they exploding now? Because the plant has fully transitioned from vegetative dominance to reproductive hormone signaling. Auxin redistribution shifts. Gibberellins reduce. Flowering genes are active. We’re now in: Active bud site multiplication phase. The number of pistils at week 4 indicates: • Good hormonal balance • No stress-induced reversion • Strong floral initiation ⸻ 🌿 STRUCTURE – HYBRID BUT SATIVA EXPRESSION We’re noticing: • Vertical middle branching • Internodal stretch • Upward lateral arms Even though LSD is a hybrid, phenotype expression can lean sativa structurally. This gives us: • Longer cola potential • Slightly airier stacking (good for airflow) • Potentially later bulking Now the question: Will this become a dominant main cola? Based on structure: Yes — but not a single spear. More likely: A structured central column with strong secondary tops. We didn’t top aggressively. So apical dominance remains. But the mid-sides are competitive. This is a balanced dominance structure — not a Christmas tree, not a bush. ⸻ 📈 WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT WEEK (Week 5 Flower) You should see: Calyx swelling begins Pistils start thickening, not just multiplying Slight trichome production visible on sugar leaves Stretch slowing down Nutrient demand increases What you should NOT expect yet: ✘ Major bud density ✘ Heavy trichome frosting ✘ Fan leaf fade ✘ Pistil darkening in bulk We’re still in building phase. ⸻ 🧠 ONE IMPORTANT THING Humidity at 70% in week 5 will become more critical. As density increases: We will lower it gradually toward 60–62%. Not aggressively. Gradually. Our room is stable. We don’t shock it. ⸻ 🌿 OVERALL IMPRESSION They look: • Even • Uniform • Almost clone-like • Structurally consistent That uniformity from seed? That’s good selection genetics. This room feels intentional. Not experimental. Not chaotic. Controlled. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@DOGDOGTHEDOCTOR NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

This lady seems to be heading into flowering. She is throwing out pistils like crazy. I did some major defoliation. I likely will be leaving her alone from now on chances are. 😎🍿🍻🌱

These are very awesome genetics These budz are almost ready to chop

Kept an eye on her and basically tried to expose as many nodes and bud sites to as much light exposure as possible. The temperature is a bit cold with a cold wind. She seems to still be growing well albeit a bit on the slow side. Buds are forming with trichomes already visible.

Sie hat das umtopfen super vertragen! Habe noch die unteren Triebe entfernt. Spraymix alle 2 Tage.

Grow wos just a pleasure, she was very responsive about trainings! SOO Sticky and frost!!! Even after drying. Thanks GD & DINAFEM without you icwould not get any pleasureof growing!!! AND MY FRIENDS from over the world, growers love !!!0

light feed ,girls are just costing nice and easy. Trying to go less on the nuts. feeding a lot of microbes and teas. they were transplanted in ff OF so they have plenty of nutrients for at least 30 days.

Vegetative Woche 3: Tag 29 gab es das erste LST nach dem Umtopfen für die Ladys, damit sie das Zelt bald schön ausfüllen zu viert 😊 Hierfür einfach bodenhaken für die Triebe und am Hauptstamm nutze ich gerne die roten Clips. Tag 30+31 gab es nichts besonderes zu tun 😊 Tag 32 wurde das erste Mal gegossen nach dem Umtopfen mit 2l ph 6.2 Wasser mit 0,8g/l Enhancer, das Wasser habe ich zum ersten Mal mit meiner neuen Akkugießlanze verteilt und ich hoffe so noch gleichmäßiger gießen zu können 😊 Tag 33 wurden wieder mit LST gearbeitet und die Triebe mit den Bodenhaken weiter nach außen gebogen, damit ich möglichst bald ein relativ gleichmäßiges Blätterdach habe welches die gesamte Grundfläche des Zeltes ausfüllt. Tag 34 war wieder Ruhetag Tag 35 wurde wieder gegossen und zwar wieder mit 2l pro Pflanze mit ph Wert von 6.2 und 1ml/l Calmag und auch hier wurde zum Gießen di Akkulanze verwendet. Und so endet Woche 3 der Veg

Woche 7: Die zweite Woche der Blütephase ging es der Blattmasse erstmal an den Kragen damit die Blüten auch etwas an Licht abbekommen 😅 Anfangs dachte ich, dass ich vielleicht etwas viel weggeneommen habe. Aber im Nachhinein hätte ich den unteren Bereich der Pflanzen deutlich radikaler Entlauben können. Ich war etwas zaghaft 😅 Ansonsten habe ich weiterhin versucht die große Skywalker zumindest etwas unter Kontrolle zu bringen.. Aber da sie fast doppelt so groß wie ihre Schwestern ist, bin ich schon in Planung einer zweiten Growbox. In dieser kann sie sich wenn es soweit ist ganz alleine austoben.. doch etwas muss sie sich noch gedulden.

this week I made the decision to transplant both plants .. the 20 liter pot was already too small .. and it was bad for development and growth .. two-headed SATORI :-) transplanted into a 50-liter basket for dirty clothes))) I had to buy it because everything is closed !! I could not find a 50 liter pot for plants due to restrictions on Covid-19 .. for this reason this basket became an alternative .. which seemed to me not a bad replacement for AirPot .. it is 35-40% transparent through .. and the air will flow better to roots .. after transplantation, she began to grow oochen rapidly)) I transplanted the fat SATORI into a smartpot 15 gallons .. a little depressed after the transplant, but I think everything will be fine)) the gender has not yet been shown, but as you can see in some of the photos, the hope is that both of them are girls all growing and growing .. and not a little important factor .. already 4 days as a regime 12-12 .. I want to make sure that they are girls and wait until they show the sex by 100% then with a new transfer to the growing season ..

Biobizz nach Schema alles wächst 🥦🍓🦋

Just chop her yesterday and hange it to dry

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Probleme.

Stopped Vodoo juice, I continue to feed g/m/b, B52 and cal/mag until i get my all pre flowers established. Not just to see them but let em to grow a lil bit then this for me is a midway through my grow #Happyplants

Vamos familia, actualizamos la cuarta semana de floración de estas Black Rainbow de Seedstockers, salieron las 3 de 3, 100% ratio éxito. Aplicamos varios productos de Agrobeta, que son increíbles para aportar una buena alimentación a las plantas. Temperatura y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos dentro de la etapa de floración. La tierra utilizada es al mix top crop, por cambiar. De 3 ejemplares seleccioné los 2 mejores para completar el indoor y trasplanté directamente a macetas de 7 litros, cambien el fotoperiodo a 12/12 y aplique una buena poda de ramas bajas, se ven bien sanas las plantas, tienen un buen color y progresan a muy buen ritmo por el momento, están cogiendo ya una tricomada seria.

Another week for the first-time sailor. I started doing LST as I'm a beginner unfortunately my lack of skill took 3 leaves but the plants apparently did not feel the stress as they continue to grow and with the birth of new leaves. This week reduces the space for watering before 7 days to 5 days the growth is good but as everything in life can improve but I am happy with my performance and learning from my failures.

Day 99 09/08/24 Friday Feed today, using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6, no plagron products this week due to seeing nute burn. But she has bounced back yet again from a heavy defoliation and topping last week. Trying to keep her small enough to flip in the tent 🤞 Day 100 10/08/24 Saturday Picture and video update ✌️ 💚 Day 101 11/08/24 Sunday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today again with calmag. Day 102 12/08/24 Monday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today again with calmag and Plagron PK13-14 5L 10% run off Just trying to maintain her still untill my dragon has finished 🤦‍♂️ Thriving 😍✌️💚

Welcome growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre, 4x4 edition! Flush time, just water for LSD, Green Crack and Mandarin dreams!! Do-si-dos gets another week of feed before flush. I'm very impressed with the bud sizes, trichomes and smell of each plant, mandarin dreams is especially ooozing with resin, it's almost like liquid soap touching your skin. The Mars-Hydro TSW2000 light has been killing it! This light delivers way more than expected! Thanks for stopping by growfessors, tune in next time 👽🌳💚
