# LSD Zamnesia Tripping 🙂 | Drying, Trimming & Final Numbers — Week 15 From Seed First of all… Yes 😄 We are once again dividing the harvest into multiple parts, and we sincerely apologize for that. But honestly, there was simply no realistic way to fit everything properly into a single GrowDiaries update. Between: - harvest photos, - trimming sessions, - macro stacks, - drying process, - preservation methods, - extraction preparation, - washing content, - smoke review material, - and all the little behind-the-scenes moments… …the amount of data collected during this run became massive. And instead of rushing through everything or leaving important parts unexplained, we decided to split the final stages into multiple chapters so every step gets the attention it deserves. Because harvest is not just “cut plant, dry plant, smoke plant.” The final weeks are honestly an entire process on their own. And this week? This week was all about: - drying, - trimming, - preservation, - resin collection, - and finally seeing what these girls truly delivered. For everyone joining now, quick recap: These LSD girls were grown under 12/12 from seed from the very beginning. Minimal intervention. Almost no traditional training. Mostly leaf tucking and gentle bending when needed. The plants grew naturally toward the light while we focused mainly on environmental balance and observation instead of aggressive manipulation. The goal was never maximum optimization. The goal was understanding. And honestly? These girls became absolute monsters anyway. After harvest, the plants that were not frozen for future washing were dried mostly whole instead of being aggressively broken down immediately. We wanted the drying process to happen slowly and naturally to help preserve: - terpenes, - resin quality, - smoothness, - and final flower texture. Drying conditions stayed around: - 18–20°C - approximately 60% humidity And after around 10 days… That beautiful little branch “click” finally arrived. Growers know the sound 😄 Not fully snapping into dust… not bending wet anymore… …that perfect middle point where you know trimming time has officially arrived. And honestly? This is where the room became chaos again 😄 Trim bin ready. Gloves on. Scissors prepared. Mr. Baggy supervising operations as usual. We even gave him a trimming cap so his imaginary hairs would not contaminate the flowers 😄 Safety first. One branch at a time, we slowly started breaking everything down by hand: - separating flowers, - removing excess leaf material, - preserving structure, - checking density, - and admiring the insane amount of frost these girls developed. And wow… These flowers are ridiculously resinous. Not just visually frosty. Sticky frosty. The type where: - scissors stop cooperating, - gloves become glued together, - fingers turn black with resin, - and every few minutes you accidentally create little hash sculptures while trimming. The Zamnesia curved trimming scissors honestly became one of my favorite tools during this process. The pointed curved tips make it incredibly easy to reach deep inside dense flowers without damaging structure too aggressively. And these flowers definitely deserved precision. Dense. Heavy. Compact. Extremely resinous. Some buds honestly felt closer to small rocks than flowers 😄 While trimming, the trim bin also started collecting beautiful material underneath: - tiny trichome heads, - broken resin glands, - small fragments, - and all the golden dusty goodness growers love seeing accumulate slowly over time. And once enough collected… Of course we hand-pressed it 😄 Nothing fancy. No giant machinery. No complicated setup. Just warmth from the hands, gentle pressure, patience, and resin slowly transforming itself into beautiful soft hash. The color came out gorgeous too: light golden, slightly creamy, soft, sticky, and incredibly fragrant. Simple. Traditional. Beautiful. Exactly the kind of small moments that make harvest season special. Now for the final dry numbers so far: Plant A: 287g dry flower Plant B: 107.3g dry flower And it is important to mention: the second plant was NOT harvested fully for flower because a significant portion had already been separated and frozen for future ice-water extraction work. So these numbers do not represent the total biomass produced by that plant. And honestly? We are extremely happy with the results. Especially considering: - the 12/12-from-seed approach, - minimal intervention, - the massive resin production, - the flower density, - and the overall quality expression these girls delivered. The aroma during trimming was unbelievable too. The entire studio became saturated with terpenes: - loud, - greasy, - sweet, - sharp, - complex, - almost offensive in the best possible way 😄 Every movement released more aroma into the room. Every branch smelled alive. And even now during curing, these girls continue evolving beautifully. For preservation, we decided to divide storage between: - Grove Bags, - glass jars, - and a few additional preservation containers. And honestly, this is something we always enjoy testing because curing is never just “put flower somewhere and forget about it.” Different storage methods can slightly influence: - moisture stabilization, - terpene retention, - aroma evolution, - texture, - and long-term aging behavior. Glass jars remain classics for a reason. But Grove Bags are also extremely interesting because they are specifically designed to help stabilize humidity exchange internally without constant burping routines. And over time, comparing these methods becomes part of the fun too. Of course, this is still not the end of the story. Far from it 😄 The next chapters will cover: - frozen material washing, - ice-water extraction, - separation, - resin collection, - drying techniques, - curing updates, - smoke review, - terpene analysis, - and final concentrate results. And honestly… These girls already gave us some absolutely beautiful medicine during washing tests 👀 But we will save those details for the proper extraction update. Mr. Baggy stayed with us through the entire trimming process as always, emotionally supporting operations and probably stealing quality control samples when nobody was looking 😄 And finally… Thank you. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To all the LEDs, gear, and equipment involved. To GrowDiaries. To the community. To the longtime followers. To the new followers. To the silent supporters. To the curious visitors. To the skeptics. To the lovers and the haters 😄 To everyone spending even a few minutes following this strange beautiful plant journey with us. And next week? Things get icy 🌊❄️ Fresh frozen material. Washing. Extraction. Resin separation. And another entire side of this plant still waiting to be explored. Stay safe everyone. Stay curious. And may your scissors always stay sticky 🌱

Finally last stage of flowering is here 😁 In next 2/3 weeks she will be ready for harvest. Update: Day 93 It's like waiting for Xmas, you know there will be gifts but you have to wait for them 😂😂😂 Update: Day 97 The buds slowly start to show a colours 😊 But my phone camera is a total trash so at that pictures you're not able to see it... Like I said before I will buy something better for next grow report 😇😇😇 All the best, You Lovely Girls Growers 💪💪💪

It's been a busy week : 👉 I defoliated the plant by removing 8- 10 very big fan leaves, to allow more sunlight to reach the lower branches 👉 I took 2 cutting of my plant(s) 👉 I removed the six lowest branches and used the cuttings to make cuttings. 👉 I started the light deprivation technique by moving the plants to my darkroom to force flowering. 👉👉👉👉Every morning at 8:30 am I move the plants in the greenhouse. 👉👉👉👉Every evening at 8:30 pm I move the plants inside the darkroom. 👉 Once a week I give the plants a liquid booster with OPF 4:2:8 ; Fulvic 25 ; Yuccah ; Biovin liquid ; Earthworm compost extract. Big Thanks to Luc from Plant Health Solutions / Bioplantenvoeding dot nl 🙏🙏🙏👉 👉 We had an excellent week with high temperatures🌡️, lots of sun 🌞, and rain during the night 🌧️ Plant #1 ; height : 109 cm Plant #2 ; height : 98 cm Plant #3 ; height : 96 cm

Code ; NINJABUDS for a discount on ELUFAH lights The spectrum from ELUFAH is really making the plants grow really well My papa Payton I have growing under the ELUFAH uap-1500 along with the ELUFAH Saturn ring under canopy light. I recently put the plant back in a 2x2 I did have 2 plants but the other plant needed up being male. No need for the larger tent still.

👋Top is a clean cut, no confusion for the plant, road ahead is clear, by completely removing the main growth tip, the auxin source is eliminated. The plant permanently halts vertical growth from that main stem and immediately sends its energy and hormones to the two new, evenly spaced branches just below the cut. Fimming slightly different because a small tuft of the top growth is left behind, the auxin disruption is temporary and less severe. The plant recovers more quickly and sends its energy to multiple surrounding growth points, often creating four or more new shoots from the same spot. It will eventually regain some vertical dominance after a few weeks if left to its own devices, but with a little more LST, bending the apex to the same height as the rest of the internodes, this shatters dominance, hopefully creating around 8-9 main shoots growing at equal height once recovered and grown out. Reduced environmental intensity for now and let her focus on dealing with this new stress for a week or two. When H+ ions are added to soil, the first nutrient displaced from exchange sites is typically aluminum (Al3+), if it's present, followed by calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), and potassium (K+), because aluminum and these base cations have different binding strengths. The order of displacement depends on the lyotropic series, where ions with a higher positive charge and those with weaker binding strengths are displaced first. The specific order of nutrient displacement is determined by the lyotropic series, which ranks the strength with which cations are adsorbed by soil particles: Al3+: Most strongly adsorbed, so if present, it will be displaced by H+ ions, leading to increased solubility of aluminum and potential plant toxicity. Ca2+: Displaced next, as it is more strongly bound than Mg2+ or K+ but less than Al3+. Mg2+ and K+: Displaced after Ca2+. The displaced nutrients can be lost from the root zone through leaching, becoming unavailable to plants. As H+ ions increase, the proportion of acid cations (H+ and Al3+) on the exchange sites increases, while base cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+) decrease, resulting in a lower soil pH. The amount of photosynthesis (water splitting) directly determines the availability of H+ ions (protons) in a plant. 90% of water is for cooling of photosynthetic apparatus the other 10% is split for its H+ among others things. Carbon sugars, like glucose, do oxidize in soil through a process primarily driven by microorganisms, which break down these sugars for energy. This oxidation converts the sugars into carbon dioxide (CO2) through cellular respiration, a key part of the soil carbon cycle, though some carbon may also be incorporated into soil organic matter. The rate and extent of sugar oxidation depend on factors like oxygen availability, the presence of Fe oxides, and soil redox conditions, which can all influence the process. My understanding of why we flush. Just plain water, what does it do? Strips the medium of salts and nutrients making it empty. What does that do? Triggers nutrient recycling within the plant. What's nutrient recycling? It is a natural part of plant senescence, which can be triggered once you know the switches. A 24:1 carbon-to-nitrogen ratio will also trigger. Why won't it trigger autophagy for me? Nitrogen needs to be gone, gone, gone almost. Ammoniacal (organic) nitrogen takes 4-5 times more water to separate it from soil particles than nitrates so what happens is most people jist flush the nitrates, leave all the ammoniacal in there and this prevents autophagy initiating. Nitrogen decays differently depending on its form during the dry. Ammoniacal nitrogen will oxidize in the air, leaving no trace. But nitrates do no decay and turn volatile and smelly and remain trapped until smoked, no matter how long you cure it does not oxidize. This is why you need to trigger it and begin the denitrfication process prior to harvest to get rid of all the nitrates. Otherwise, you will smoke it. Flush till autophagy begins, just make sure you add no nitrogen afterwards. Micronutrients for trichomes. Don't leave the medium empty for 2 weeks, that does nothing but reduce yield 10%ish. Trichomes are another thing. Trichomes themselves are not directly affected by flushing; rather, flushing affects the plant's nutrient uptake, which influences the development and final state of the trichomes. Trichomes are filled with antioxidants in the last weeks, which is what makes them cloudy. A lot of the processing of antioxidants requires energy and nutrients (mostly micronutrients ), so you don't want that soil empty for 2 weeks, you just want the carbon nitrogen ratio 24:1and no higher. She still wants what she needs to ripen. Processing antioxidants is energy-intensive; heat and light accelerate the rate at which THC converts to CBN. This is why you lower DLI, lower temps. By doing so, you reduce the oxidative workload caused by photosynthesis, which opens up the oxidative capacity for the production of antioxidants. THC is mostly processed at night when the plant's oxidative capacity is generally moreso "free and available" for work

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 12/04/19 || To/Hasta: 18/04/19 From day/Desde día: 50 || To day/Hasta día: 56 You can find the Gorillas Diary here: ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Gorilla aquí:** https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25675-makingmoney-with-gorilla-mm-vs-gorilla -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- I'm sorry for not having a tlapse video this week, i slaved the cam onto my 60x60 tent to record the first growing week of another plants, next week i will return with more tlapse videos. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- To have a visual size of the plants take into consideration that the SCROG net it's fixed 24 cm abobe the top part of the soil. Remarking what i've told last week, i must say the SCROG is not a true SCROG, as some colas begin below others, and also colas are of different heights among all plants. Anyway i'm very happy on how everything is going. And insisting again, I have very very few experience growing cannabis, this is my 3rd grow, 2nd indoor, and first time with photo-period at indoors, and of course is the first time too i'm trying to apply growing technics on a serious way. I really don't know if i'm doing things right or wrong. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 13/04/19 - 1.250 ml with all week nutrients -(Sensizym, bloom stimulator, bloom nutrition & amino complex) @ PH6.4 & 1.3 E.C. 17/04/19 - 1.250 ml with Silica Power, Pro Active, Bloom Stimulator, Bloom Nutrition, Sensizym & 5 drops of Amino Complex @ PH6.5 & 1.3 E.C. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES Y VÍDEOS----- Siento no tener vídeos timelapse esta semana, he esclavizado la cámara en el armario de 60x60 para grabar la primera semana de crecimiento con otras plantas que tengo en el. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Para tener una idea más o menos certera del tamaño de las partes de las plantas, tened en cuenta que la red está fija a 24 cm de la parte superior de la tierra de los tiestos. Remarcando lo que dije durante la última semana, he de decir que el SCROG no es un SCROG real, ya que las colas no empiezan desde la misma altura ni son de la misma altura, ni las plantas son de la misma altura. Pero yo estoy muy contento con como va la cosa, vuelvo a insistir que es mi primera vez con foto-dependientes indoor, mi segundo armario indoor y el tercer cultivo de mi vida, y por supuesto la primera vez que aplico o intento aplicar las técnicas de cultivo. Lo estoy intentando realizar bien y de manera eficaz, pero realmente no se si lo estoy haciendo bien o mal, yo simplemente me lio y veo como responden las plantas. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 13/04/19 - 1.250 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Sensizym, bloom stimulator, bloom nutrition & amino complex) @ PH6.4 & 1.3 E.C. 17/04/19 - 1.250 ml con Silica Power, Pro Active, Bloom Stimulator, Bloom Nutrition, Sensizym & 5 gotas de Amino Complex @ PH6.5 & 1.3 E.C.

Res change on Tuesday Dec 22nd. Did 100% of GH Trio (plus calmag and armor si) bloom week 2, "early bloom" came out to 1180 ppm even after adding an extra 20% of bloom nutes. Was hoping for a little higher. Last week my res pH kept dropping. I think I forgot to feed my left over nute solution from the previous res change. 😐 Maybe it's asking for higher nutes? I'm working on an automatic top off system. Got a pump hooked up to a smart power strip and have a google routine to pump a liter (or two) of water. Wanted to set it up so I can go cabin camping for a day or two. Update on 12/26, humidity seems high, just around 60%. Granted we had a warm up and rain. I'll keep an eye on it.

Everything went good again this week, girls Finally stopped stretching I think! Lol I pulled back all the shouts that ran for the light, now they are either pulled back enough to the side or tied down some to make it more even in the middle for the light and to keep the taller branches from burning as I cant go any higher with my light. These girls really exploded in size compared to my test Banana Bomb I started flowering 2 weeks earlier in a small tent under 2x180w LED lights to see how she stretched to judge for this big tent. Led kept her tight and small, these girls are 4 feet tall in some places! Getting some good bud site development though all over the place. Seems we have 3 of the same phenotype that are tall lanky and 1 different phenotype that is staying short and compact under exact same conditions. I also did a complete water change this week and we are keeping the EC around 1.3 as they are showing a bit of excess nutrients I believe, gonna keep her on the lower side to be safe and wait for her to tell me when she hungry for more. All and all it was a good week, no major problems and buds are starting to ramp up there size and development. That’s it till next week. Cheers! 💨

She is a monster measuring 1.94 cm 6'4 ft the same as me. She grew slow due to cloudy days. she is 2 different processes the bottom is the list and with big buds ready to be cut. The upper part has just begun flowering. her buds were cut at the bottom with 5% 15% amber in different buds. There are some big buds. I hope almost all ready as soon as possible this spring
