Popped these seeds on Monday (30/03/20). Germination Method: Soaked seeds in Vitathrive overnight and transferred to Jiffy pellets. I used the excess water with Vitathrive to soak the pellets 👍. Two days later, what I’ll reference now as P1, popped out. P2 is two days behind. These seeds were sent from BF over a year ago. Day 5 - Placed both in 1 Gallon fabric pot with an amended Coco Coir mix. Grow medium (per 1 Gallon) in Vivosun 1 Gal Fabric pot. Coco Coir, 1.5 TBSP of Gaia Green 4-4-4, 2 TBSP Earthworm Casting. I debated doing a synthetic run again but love the simplicity of using Gaia Green. I will start early giving the plants some Organic Cal-Mag for General Organics. Outcome of mix TBD LoL... Lights: HLG 65W 4000k QB for the first 2-3 weeks depends on space. HLG 95W - Week 3 to 6 or until the 3x3’ tent is open for business. I plan (I change my mind on a daily so we’ll see) to do a two plant in a 3x3’ flowering tent under the HLG QB 288 (260W 3000k) Game Plan Last grows I had amended my mix with Feather Meal which caused Nitrogen Toxicity in both plants. For this run I plan to start extremely light and adjust accordingly, meaning I’ll top dress with FM as needed or maybe at week 2. Plants currently under humidity dome with vents open as I have the strawberry nuggets on the other side finishing up (need low humidity for the next two weeks). Veg time will be at most 6 weeks if I’m running both plants in my flowering tent. Recommend flowering time for this strain is 9-10 weeks therefore plenty of growth will occur once the switch is flipped to 12/12. Why Phantom OG? We’ll I’m a fan of Sativa Dominant Hybrids. Read great reviews on this strain and looks like a strain that will produce enormous buds, to be seen.

SATURDAY 9/21: After having had my entire rig and all my cured produce stolen from me by my pardner in crime, I'm starting from scratch. (That f**king asshole!) Special thanks to the fabulous folks at Fastbuds for sending me some replacement beans!!! I mylar'ed up a closet and got a little light to get them started with. It's 3500k with some extra 660nm and draws about 200w from the wall. I am going old-school this time around..no pre-soak and no paper towels. I bought some soluble myco + tricho + all the good beneficial bacteria and mixed a little into a liter of distilled water and wetted rapid rooter plugs. I planted all three Stardawg beans in the rapid rooter plugs and put them in a little humidome under 9w of pink light. TUESDAY 9/24: All three emerged with no problems, but one is still wearing a "hat".. THURSDAY 9/26: All three had taproots sticking out a few inches, so I planted them in their 3 gallon pots and put little mini-domes over them. FRIDAY 9/27: I knew better than to try to start some seedlings with no humidifier, but the asshole stole mine, so I tried it anyway..I have several seedlings that probably aren't gonna make it, but so far all 3 x Stardawgs look fine. I wet them down and put some trays of water in the closet to try and bring up the RH. TUESDAY 10/1: Okay, so only one survived, and she's starting to grow.👍 My soil mix was too hot for them...rookie mistake... I finished working on my homemade frame and mounted 6 x 120w quantum boards to it, but one of my 3 x 240w drivers failed, so I gotta get a replacement sometime in the next few weeks. I still gotta get my ventilation squared away before I can even run them.😎 FRIDAY 10/4: She's my lone Fastbuds plants..got high hopes for her. She'll be surrounded by a bunch of Candy Cane hybrids.

I put the clones into bigger Pots once their roots were fully established. Immediately started LST and put in the clones at an angle so that light is distributed more evenly. Autos also growing well but Panty Punch is lacking because of crippled leaves. I still let her live to see how she develops. I plan to bend the clones in a circular shape so they grow into an even canopy.

So far so good! The two prized plants are making a nice long beautiful main colas with great lower shoots. I did have what appeared to be a lockout early in the week but I’d bet it was from either salt/nutrient build up or to high of a ppm count. I ran a batch of flora kleen for an hour and the results were astound of how much it stripped out. I think this resolved it and the smells are starting to come through now. I love the later weeks of flower but who doesn’t?!

12/12 from seed. Week 12 overall. Week 8 of flower. And Cosmic Noodles is doing exactly what a finisher should do. No drama. No panic. No chasing numbers. Just a massive plant, a controlled fade, and a very clear push into the final stretch. She is not limping to the finish. She is arriving with weight. âž» 🍜 The Final Reduction This week, everything comes out except Pure Zym. No bloom feed. No boosters. No extras. No correction bottles. No late flower chasing. Just enzymes. And time. At this point, the goal is no longer to build. The goal is to finish clean. She has already done the hard part. The bulk is there. The frost is there. The density is there. Now the plant is simply being allowed to use what she has already stored. That’s the shift this week. Less input. More observation. Less pushing. More finishing. And for a plant this far along, that is often the better move. âž» đŸŒ± Why Keep Pure Zym In Because even when feed stops, the root zone is still working. Pure Zym stays because the medium is still alive. Microbial activity does not stop just because bottles do. At this stage, enzymes still help break down residual organic matter in the root zone, keep the medium cleaner, and support a softer transition as the plant begins consuming what remains available. That matters even more when the soil is not treated like disposable media. Because it isn’t. This soil still has a second job after this run. It goes outside. It gets reused. It feeds vegetables. It stays alive. And whether it is hard science, soft biology, or just grower instinct — keeping that soil active until the end has always made sense here. Not everything needs to be sterile to be effective. Sometimes the better approach is simply not killing what is still working. âž» ? Living Soil, Second Life That has always been part of the rhythm. What finishes the room does not leave the cycle. It just changes jobs. Once this run is done, that soil goes back outside and keeps working somewhere else. Different crop. Same biology. Same purpose. So yes — keeping the medium active late matters. Not just for this harvest. For what comes after it too. Call it practical. Call it circular. Call it habit. Either way, dead soil has never been the goal. âž» 📉 EC Down, pH Up, Eyes On the Plant This is where the spreadsheet starts losing authority. EC is down. Input is nearly gone. pH has drifted upward into that 6.8–7 range. And right now, it is not being forced back down. Not because numbers do not matter. Because context matters more. At this stage, the plant is finishing. Uptake is slowing. Demand is lower. Feed has been reduced. The root zone is doing less work than it was two weeks ago. So yes — on paper, some of these numbers would make people uncomfortable. In practice? The plant looks exactly like a plant that is finishing correctly. Still drinking. Still praying. Still stacking. Still fading evenly. Still moving from top to bottom without confusion. That matters more than chasing a perfect chart in the final stretch. Room VPD is a reference. Leaf response is the truth. And this room continues to be read by plant behavior first, numbers second. As always. âž» đŸŒĄïž Conditions Stay Stable Nothing changed in the room because nothing needed to. Conditions remain steady. No dramatic swings. No forced stress. No late-stage environmental tricks. The room is stable. The plant is stable. The finish is stable. And late flower stability is one of the most underrated parts of a clean finish. No heroic adjustments. No panic corrections. No reinvention in the last chapter. Just consistency. âž»  A Proper Finisher And this one is a beast. Not “good structure.” Not “nice tops.” A beast. Huge central cola. Heavy side stacking. Dense flower formation. Thick terminals. Real weight from top to bottom. This is one of those plants that stops being judged branch by branch and starts being judged as mass. Because the whole frame is carrying. She is not finishing in isolated tops. She is finishing as a full plant. That matters. The top is heavy. The mid is real. The lowers are still worthwhile. And the entire plant is moving together. That is what a complete finisher looks like. âž» ❄ Frost, Density & Finish Quality And she is not just big. She is finishing properly. Dense flower. Heavy resin. Excellent frost coverage. Strong calyx development. Good terminal formation. Real weight in the hands. The important part now is that she is not only stacking size — she is finishing with quality. That is the difference between a plant that looks impressive and a plant that actually delivers. This one does both. And whether part of her gets dried or part of her gets frozen, she has already made the case for both. That decision can wait. Right now, the only job is to let her finish. âž» 🍂 The Fade Is Real — And It’s Everywhere The fade is already underway. And more importantly, it is happening correctly. Not isolated. Not patchy. Not confused. She is fading from top to bottom. Across the plant. Across the canopy. Across the frame. That matters. A uniform fade tells a very different story than a stressed collapse. This is not random yellowing. This is not deficiency panic. This is senescence. The plant is reallocating. The cycle is closing. The finish has started. And she is doing it evenly. That is exactly what you want to see here. âž» 💡 Canopy Light Matters And once again, the lesson stays the same: Canopy lighting matters. When the full frame is finishing together, it shows. When lowers stay relevant, it shows. When the plant matures with less separation between top and bottom expression, it shows. Uniform development is not an accident. Top-to-bottom consistency like this is one of the clearest arguments for proper canopy penetration when the setup allows for it. Not mandatory in every room. But when possible, absolutely worth it. This plant makes that case on her own. âž» 📘 Week 12, Cosmic Noodles This is what the late game should feel like. Calm. Heavy. Controlled. Predictable. Close. No overreaction. No bottle panic. No forced finish. Just a large, healthy plant using the last of what she has and moving toward the end exactly like she should. And that is all this week needed to be. âž» ⏭ What Comes Next Next week should bring more fade. More color loss. Less drinking. More swelling where it still matters. And a clearer final read on timing. She may finish next week. She may ask for a little longer. Both are still on the table. What should not happen is panic. No sudden overfeeding. No late corrections. No chasing green back into a plant that is already doing what finishing plants are supposed to do. From here, the job is simple: Watch the leaves. Watch the resin. Watch the pace. Then cut when the plant says so. âž» đŸ€ Thank You To the long-time followers. To the new ones. To the quiet readers. To the loud ones. To the skeptics. To the supporters. To the critics. To the growers who watch closely. To the ones who question everything. To the ones who simply keep showing up. To GrowDiaries. To the community. To the sponsors. To the gear.

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.

A really hot week last week, The lamp doesn’t make it any easier but steady at 28 degrees now. OG auto in its final days I think, leaves are starting to turn yellow so I’ve started a flush, it’s a beautiful plant, 80% of the plant is covered in bud, I’ll post some good pics before harvest. Not gonna be a crazy yield but for the size of the plant really decent. The feminized OG are all exploding with bud sites, amazing how fast it’s going the smell is getting better by the day Gorillas are cute! Flowering a little slower but a lot bushier and the leaves are sooooo pretty! Started to give more water and upping the dosage of nutes since I’ve not seen any signs of over feeding might as well try it out Okloveyoubye ❀

This week was a bit of a struggle. Plant was moved to 5 gallon container and into a tent. It took me a few days to get the humidity under control but all is well now that I've got a little better ventilation. The only thing I'm very concerned with now is bringing the ph down to a 6.5 -7. I'm going to use distilled water instead of nutrient mix for the next week and likely will heavily dilute the nutrient mix before next feeding.

She is now coming into preflower and loving the new T5's. She is growing nice and bushy with future tops shooting for the stars. The stretch is definitely near. She will continue to be tied down and has been pruned and defoliated as needed to give her that sexy shape i want her to have in flower. Her terpines are beginning to be noticeable and is of lemons, earthy notes, and loud gas. She is now also getting kelp extract added to the nutes. She is growing very nicely and i could not be happier at the moment. So far OSSC has my attention as their phenotypes have been very nice.

Diese Woche gehts nach draußen, denn das Wetter ist gut und die Eisheiligen sind durch. Die Tropicana Cookies hat ihren Endtopf bezogen und darf jetzt als erste im Außenbecken schwimmen. Das System besteht aus 2 Solarzellen. Die linke betreibt eine kleine Luftpumpe und hat sogar einen integrierten Akku, sodass sie auch nach Sonnenuntergang noch weiter pumpt. Bis zum nĂ€chsten Morgen schafft sie es allerdings nicht. Die Leistung ist eher mĂ€ĂŸig, aber ich habe durch einen anderen Schlauch und einen durchlĂ€ssigeren Airstone alles rausgeholt, was möglich war. Die rechte Solarzelle betreibt eine kleine TeichfontĂ€ne, die ich direkt gegen den Deckel spritzen lasse. So lĂ€uft die NL am Deckel und am Topf entlang bekommt dabei viel OberflĂ€che. Ich hoffe damit die NL zusĂ€tzlich mit Sauerstoff anreichern zu können und die NL an sich so weit in Bewegung zu halten wie in einem RDWC. Die Zelle ist nicht besonders Leistungsstark und dadurch pumpt die Pumpe tatsĂ€chlich nur, wenn die Sonne scheint. Ob das reicht werden wir in diesem Experiment feststellen. 😅 Dann habe ich zusĂ€tzlich noch den Eimer Isoliert, indem ich einen 40L Stofftopf drĂŒber gezogen habe. Der Schatten schĂŒtzt den schwarzen Eimer vor der Sonne. Die Steine auf dem Deckel schirmen den Deckel ebenfalls ab und halten abends ein wenig die WĂ€rme, sodass der Eimer langsamer und hoffentlich etwas weniger in der Temperatur schwankt. Ich werde aber wohl noch eine Abdeckung bauen, da ich mit der Optik sehr unzufrieden bin. ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* In Vlog #4 und #5 könnt ihr den Fortschritt in bewegten Bildern miterleben.

DĂ­a 44 (15/07) Wow! No hay shock de trasplante! đŸ˜đŸ’„đŸ˜ Todas las ramas se han estirado hacia arriba tras el ajuste de LST y se estĂĄn formando nuevos nodos rĂĄpidamente Esta combinaciĂłn de nutrientes de Lurpe + substrato de PRO-MIX HP es una maravilla 😍 DĂ­a 45 (16/07) Ayer tuvimos ola de calor (37 ÂșC) y han aguantado muy bien! A Ășltima hora de la tarde (cuando ya no habĂ­a sol directo) les apliquĂ© H2O en spray foliarmente para refrescar los estomas Hoy parece que vuelven las temperaturas estĂĄndar para esta Ă©poca del año: 29 - 30 ÂșC en las horas centrales del dĂ­a Riego con 1 litro de H20 pH 6,5 DĂ­a 46 (17/07) Pequeños ajustes de LST Hay algunas ramas inferiores que no se han formado / estirado mucho Lo mĂĄs probable es que haga una buena limpieza este domingo, 7 dĂ­as despuĂ©s del trasplante, para dejar solo los brotes por encima del 4Âș nudo DĂ­a 47 (18/07) Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Este domingo (dĂ­a 50) harĂ© limpieza de partes bajas y tal vez tambiĂ©n de nuevo topping en las 4-6 ramas principales 😁 DĂ­a 48 (19/07) DĂ­a de muchĂ­simo calor con 37 ÂșC. A ver como lo llevan! Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 DĂ­a 49 (20/07) Para ayudarles a llevar mejor el calor de las horas centrales del dĂ­a, coloca una malla de sombreo (70%) sobre el invernadero Lo cierto es que se nota que baja mucho la temperatura debajo de la malla! Van a estar mĂĄs fresquitas! 😍 Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 DĂ­a 50 (21/07) Training session! Hago limpieza del tercio inferior de la planta, de todas las ramas y nudos que no superan la lĂ­nea del dosel marcada por el 4Âș nudo (1er topping) TambiĂ©n hago topping (2Âș) a todas las ramas principales La idea es tener 12 Ăł 14 colas principales para que no se hagan muy altas De paso saco unos cuantos clones de las ramas inferiores eliminadas đŸ˜đŸ’„ Para superar el estrĂ©s, hago las siguientes aplicaciones y riego: - Riego con 1 Litro de TĂ© Vegetativo de Lurpe Solutions.

Day 29: LST is done. 600W LED, 20 hours on 4 hours off the same with ventilation. Insetvrhe lamp approx 36 cm away. Water intake: 75 ml per plant plus triggering, humidity around 60 percent. Fertilization is on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with BioBizz family, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. Critical Orange Punch started flowering se grows very quick. Rest of them are OK as well they are on the way... Day 30: I did LST again. I didn't have enough elastic band yesterday so I bought today and bent them better. I also set the lamp closer approx 32 cm.Day 31: I did LST yesterday and bent them. They already "lifted up" their heads toward the lamp. As they grow I will keep bending the main stalk and the side ones. I will try to create a spiral form and spread the plants with time. Day 32: Almost all of them started flowering except Sour Stomper. Day 35: Auto Critical Orange is the monster here. She is the most developed and tallestbwoth approx 28cm. (Hard to.measure property because of LST). Pre flowers developing nicely along the plants. I changed the lamp as it needed to my other tent because my other lamp is shit. So I will swap them one week here other week there... End of the week the tallest is Critical Orange Punch with approx 28 cm and the shortest Sour Stomper with 14 cm.
