Enought Hippie Talk, now have a nice day and an even better grow, thx for watching by. ((From Seed 🌱 week report:

Woche 17 | Blütewoche 1 – Der Stretch ist eröffnet! Mit dem Wechsel auf 12/12 ist die Laughing Buddha sofort in den Stretch gestartet und hat keine Zeit verschwendet. Innerhalb der ersten Blütewoche legte sie bereits 16 cm an Höhe zu. Ehrlich gesagt hätte ich mit einem so schnellen Start nicht gerechnet. Das dritte SCROG-Netz hängt inzwischen an seinem Platz und war genau zur richtigen Zeit bereit. Aktuell fehlen den meisten Spitzen nur noch etwa 5–10 cm, bis sie das Netz erreichen. Genau so hatte ich mir den Ablauf vorgestellt. Diese Woche habe ich außerdem mein Bewässerungskonzept komplett umgestellt. Statt alle paar Tage große Mengen Wasser zu geben, bekommt die Buddha jetzt täglich etwa 5 Liter. Der Hintergrund ist einfach: Ich möchte den lebenden Bio-Boden möglichst konstant leicht feucht halten, damit die Mikroorganismen dauerhaft arbeiten können und die Nährstoffe kontinuierlich verfügbar bleiben. Bisher gefällt mir das Ergebnis richtig gut. Besonders spannend sind dabei meine Bodensensoren. Einer der beiden Sensoren lag über Wochen selbst nach einer Gabe von 10 Litern meist nur bei 8–11 %. Seit der Umstellung auf kleinere, häufigere Wassergaben reagiert dieser Bereich plötzlich deutlich stärker und erreicht nach dem Gießen inzwischen Werte von fast 50 %. Für mich ist das ein klares Zeichen, dass der komplette 40-Liter-Wurzelballen mittlerweile aktiv arbeitet und das Wasser gleichmäßiger verteilt wird. Genau deshalb macht es so viel Spaß, diese Sensoren über längere Zeit zu beobachten – man erkennt Entwicklungen, die man von außen niemals sehen würde. Passend dazu steigt jetzt auch der Wasserverbrauch spürbar an. Mit Beginn des Stretchs zieht die Pflanze täglich deutlich mehr Wasser aus dem Substrat. Die Sensorverläufe werden von Tag zu Tag steiler, gleichzeitig bleiben die Kurven aber schön gleichmäßig. Genau dieses Verhalten hatte ich mir von der neuen Gießstrategie erhofft. Auch das Klima läuft momentan richtig stabil. Die Lampe wird aktuell nicht über Prozentwerte, sondern über den Abstand zum Blätterdach gesteuert. Mit rund 720 PPFD, etwa 24 °C und einem VPD um 1,4 kPa fühlt sich die Buddha offensichtlich sehr wohl. Den PPFD-Sensor passe ich alle paar Tage an die Höhe der obersten Triebe an, damit die Lichtintensität während des Stretchs möglichst konstant bleibt. Diese Methode gefällt mir inzwischen deutlich besser als eine reine Leistungssteuerung. Der Stamm entwickelt sich inzwischen zu einem echten Monster. Erst mit einem Feuerzeug oder meiner kleinen Buddha-Figur daneben wird deutlich, wie massiv das Grundgerüst geworden ist. Unter dem Blätterdach herrscht nach dem Lollipopping weiterhin viel Platz und Luft, während sich oberhalb des Netzes eine nahezu geschlossene, gleichmäßige Krone entwickelt hat. Genau das war das Ziel der langen Vegetationsphase. Mein persönliches Highlight dieser Woche ist allerdings der Zeitraffer. Die komplette erste Stretchwoche wurde aufgezeichnet und zum ersten Mal sieht man richtig, wie sich das gesamte Blätterdach Tag für Tag anhebt. Im Alltag fallen ein oder zwei Zentimeter kaum auf – im Zeitraffer wirkt es dagegen, als würde die Pflanze ständig in Bewegung sein. Genau auf diesen Moment habe ich mich seit dem Flip gefreut. Jetzt beginnt die richtig spannende Phase. Wenn die Laughing Buddha dieses Tempo beibehält, wird sie das dritte Netz schon sehr bald erreichen. Ich bin unglaublich gespannt, wie viel Stretch in den nächsten zwei Wochen noch dazukommt. Das Fundament steht jedenfalls – jetzt darf sie zeigen, was wirklich in ihr steckt.

Zoap is coming along amazingly! She shoots up at least 1 inch each night. I will be placing zoap in a 7gal later today. My soil mix is potting soil basic shit that has little to no nutes in it.

✨ Week 6 in bloom and our White Widow is pure poetry in motion — compact, dark, and sparkling with trichomes under her 11/13 light dance. She’s living proof that beauty and strength can thrive even under a 12-12 from seed rhythm. Join the journey, feel the energy, and come see her story unfold in 4K on YouTube. 🎥💚 🌿 White Widow – Week 6 Flower Lighting: 11/13 Shuttle (12-12 from Seed) Strain: White Widow by Zamnesia Grow Style: Living Super Soil + Aptus x Plagron Recipe Series: Ongoing on YouTube (in 4K 🎥) ⸻ 🌸 The Queen in Her Prime Our White Widow is officially in full bloom — Week 6 Flower, and she’s breathtaking. Compact, dark, resinous, and powerful — a perfect example of what’s possible when we trust the process. Her leaves are deep green, her buds are tight and frosty, and her structure shows the elegance of genetics and discipline combined. Despite being a 12/12 (11/13) from seed grow, she’s performing like a true photoperiod queen. Every detail on her — from the sugar-coated fan leaves to the symmetry of her bud sites — tells a story of health and balance. ⸻ 💡 The Emerson Effect — Science Meets Soul This week we’re diving deep into one of the coolest aspects of this grow: The Emerson Effect 🌞 Every morning, the red spectrum (around 660 nm) turns on 15 minutes before the main lights. Every evening, it stays on 15 minutes longer than the rest. Why? Because we’re mimicking nature — sunrise and sunset — and activating one of the most fascinating plant processes ever discovered. 🌱 What It Does The Emerson Effect is the enhanced rate of photosynthesis that occurs when red and far-red light (around 730 nm) are present together. In simple terms: red light excites one photosystem, far-red excites the other, and when both are active, the plant runs its photosynthesis engine at maximum efficiency. ⚗️ The Results • Faster and smoother metabolic transitions • Reduced light stress during on/off cycles • Increased photosynthetic efficiency • Denser, more resinous buds • Slightly faster maturity under 11/13 schedules We’re not just flipping lights — we’re syncing biology with physics. 🌞🌙 ⸻ ⚙️ Technical Deep Dive: Emerson Effect + 11/13 Light Shuttle For the enthusiasts — when using 11 hours of light and 13 of dark, you simulate tropical photoperiods where cannabis evolved naturally. This encourages faster flower initiation and more compact plant structure. By extending the far-red light 15 minutes on both sides of the cycle, we’re signaling the plant that the sun is just beyond the horizon. It’s like whispering: “Keep going a little longer, but rest well.” This combination strengthens the balance between flower hormone production (phytochrome response) and photosynthetic drive, leading to better overall bud development. Science + intuition = success. 🌿 ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition This week’s feeding schedule continues the successful Aptus x Plagron symbiosis. From Plagron: 🌸 Power Buds – flower development booster 🍯 Sugar Royal – enhancing aroma, oil, and terpene profile 💎 Green Sensation – late-phase bulking and resin enhancer From Aptus: 🌿 All-in-One Liquid – full-spectrum nutrition 💧 CalMag Boost – mineral support and stability ⚖️ Regulator – nutrient balance and plant stress protection Even with the soil’s natural nutrient reserve (NPK still holding around 5.75), we’re gently pushing — testing how much she can handle under this 12/12 rhythm. She’s loving it: no burn, no droop, no stress — just pure growth. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Even with 45°C (110°F) heat outdoors, the grow room remains stable and healthy thanks to proper airflow and control. 📊 Environment Stats: 🌡️ Temperature: 28–30°C 💧 Humidity: 55–60% ☁️ CO₂: 450–800 ppm (natural fluctuation) 📈 VPD: ~1.3–1.8 kPa This is near-perfect for mid-flower — warm enough to boost metabolism, yet steady enough to maintain trichome production. ⸻ 📸 Photos & Videos This week’s gallery includes: 📷 Detailed studio shots of her canopy and buds 🎥 Clips showing her daily environment 🌿 A moment of me sharing medicine with her — part of our daily ritual of connection and gratitude Screenshots from TrolMaster TM+ app, showing the red-light pre-dawn and sunset cycles Every frame captures her strength and personality. No micro lens this time, but the natural look says it all — she’s glowing. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Expect: ✨ Buds bulking and trichomes stacking heavily 🌬️ Aroma deepening and resin turning more opaque 🌿 Leaf color possibly darkening further Not to Expect: 🌱 Any major new growth — stretch phase is over 🍂 Fade just yet — that will come closer to flush She’s now in the consolidation phase: weight, flavor, and resin. ⸻ 🌱 Quick Recap • Germination: After early setbacks, she became the solo survivor — and a star. • Veg: Compact and steady. • Transition: Adapted perfectly to 11/13 shuttle. • Early Flower: Tight nodes, dense frost. • Now: Week 6 — full bloom, full potential. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude & Shoutouts 💚 Zamnesia – for the legendary genetics that started it all. 💧 Aptus – for consistent balance and vitality. 🌸 Plagron – for the boosters that bring color and resin to life. ⚙️ TrolMaster & ThinkGrow – for giving precision and control. 🌍 And most of all — to you, the readers, growers, friends, lovers, haters, and believers — thank you. This community keeps the passion alive. ⸻ 🎥 Watch in 4K on YouTube 🌿 The full White Widow 12/12 from Seed Series is live in 4K resolution on YouTube.

They've started to grow their first sets of leaves and although temperature was a little higher than I'd liked they're coming along nicely. You can see the difference from just three days growth and then 3 days afer that! Adding a small amount of bio canna vega and molasses.

.

Going into the fourth week of flower and the canopy is spreading nicely. Ladies are very healthy. Alternating watering with water and cal-magd+microbial mix in addition to a light weekly top dressing. This is my best grow so far: No burned leaves No burned tips No leaf curling from over watering No yellowing leaves at the top or bottom set of leaves from nutrient deficiencies No bugs

LSTed the plants at the start of the week. Just a simple tie down. Looking good. Leaves were a bit dark green on all of them except the NL #1 so still no nitrogen feeding. Started BioBizz Grow on NL1 only.

The plants don't have enough space to grow. The spaces are crowded, and there's poor air circulation between the plants. I'll give them attention until the end.

Flowering is coming along well.. each plant is starting to show signs of frosty fan leaves and the bud sites are starting to swell. I also took a video of both

I got the purple pheno at last !! So glad actually... that it is actually changing colour and with so many more weeks left for it to continuously transition. Totally what I’m looking for in future breeding projects. Black amnesia haze fast: for its rooting and overall vigorous performance. Creating good yields each run And this one I’m still waiting to see how she goes! Way more grows in the future!

OK, im doing an update now becouse my breakup cake is going tranny!!(hermie) I already have noiticed she was not growing as strong .. but u can blame that on anything , especially when growing outdoor.. but this morning i saw that she was g(r)oing 'bananas'!😢 I have put her aside from the rest (in the back of garden) but think gonna have to terminate her asap!..(and i will, right after this post👍) The weed she will give will be filled with seeds and those seeds will be hermies too, so wothless.. and if i dont throw her away quick she can infect the rest. So goodbye breakup cake..😢 who wants to eat a cake when they are breaking up anyway..😒 (just hiding my pain with lame humour 😳) happy growing for all ✊

🍰 Lava Cake – Final Harvest & Smoke Report GrowDiaries | Week 8 (Harvest & Cure) After months of dedication, lessons, and love, our Lava Cake journey comes to a close — and what an ending it is. Both phenotypes reached maturity beautifully, wrapped in dense, resin-coated buds that carry the unmistakable aroma of sweetness and spice. 🌱 From Seed to Harvest — A Journey in Full Bloom Our Lava Cake journey began from seed with two unique phenotypes, both full of potential and personality. Week after week, through careful nutrition, TrolMaster monitoring, and endless observation, we watched them evolve. From the early stages of vegetative vigor, through the lush canopy of mid-flower, and even through the challenges of heat and bud rot, these girls showed true resilience. Each setback taught something — about balance, airflow, humility, and the living rhythm of nature. Both plants were ultimately harvested with respect and gratitude. ⸻ ✂️ Harvest & Trimming After about two weeks of slow drying at 60°F / 60% RH, the branches began to snap — a sure sign the moisture was just right. Each plant was trimmed by hand, carefully and patiently, letting every calyx, pistil, and trichome tell its own story. The buds were dense, sticky, and heavily frosted — a trimmer’s delight. Finger hash collected along the way was pure gold, rich in aroma and bursting with terpenes. Each snip of the scissors felt like sculpting something sacred. Both plants were dried whole, allowing for slower moisture migration and a smoother final cure. ⸻ 🌿 On Trichomes and Harvest Timing We chose to harvest when most trichomes were cloudy, with only a few still clear and very few amber. This moment — just before full amber maturity — is where potency meets flavor at its peak. Why cloudy trichomes? Because that’s when cannabinoids like THC and terpenes are at their maximum activity. Too early, and you lose potency; too late, and THC starts converting into CBN, giving a heavier, sleepier effect. Cloudy trichomes deliver a balanced high — euphoric yet grounding — capturing the essence of the strain in its full potential. ⸻ 🌸 Aroma, Taste & Effects The Lava Cake lives up to her name and lineage. Her rich terpene profile brings waves of sweet baked goods, layered with berry and grape undertones inherited from her Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies x Grape Pie heritage. When smoked, she’s smooth, creamy, and sweet, leaving a lingering flavor on the palate that feels like dessert for the senses. The effects are deeply relaxing, melting away tension and replacing it with calm contentment. This isn’t a beginner’s strain — her high is potent, steady, and full-bodied. A few tokes are enough to drift into a deeply peaceful, happy state. Perfect for evenings, rest days, or moments when the world needs to slow down. ⸻ 🌬️ Curing — Grove Bags & UV Glass Jars After trimming, buds were stored in Grove Bags, which naturally maintain humidity between 55–62%, eliminating the need for daily “burping.” These innovative curing bags use a one-way humidity membrane, preserving terpenes and color while preventing mold. Alongside them, we used black UV-resistant glass jars — perfect for long-term storage, protecting cannabinoids from light degradation and keeping aromas fresh. Together, these methods allowed the buds to cure into perfection — firm, aromatic, and bursting with flavor. ⸻ 🔥 Resin, Hash & Full Spectrum Bar All trim from the grow — not just from Lava Cake — was collected to make a full-spectrum bar using simple, natural heat extraction with hot water in a glass bottle. The result was a potent, sticky, terpene-rich concentrate that perfectly captures the soul of the garden. ⸻ ⚖️ Final Yields • Pheno #1: 144g dry • Pheno #2: 99g dry Both phenotypes displayed amazing bud density and structure. In fact, their sheer weight caused a few branches to snap under their own mass — another reason that influenced our harvest timing. These were heavy girls, through and through. 🌿💪 ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude & Reflections To everyone who followed along — thank you. To Zamnesia, for the genetics and inspiration, thank you. To the GrowDiaries community, the supporters, the doubters, and everyone in between — thank you for being part of this experience. And above all, thanks to God, because without Him, none of this beauty — not even the smallest seed — would exist. Growing Lava Cake wasn’t just about cultivation; it was about connection, learning, and the sacred patience of nature. ⸻ 🌀 Closing Thoughts From seed to smoke, these Lava Cakes have been a story of flavor, resilience, and soul. Despite challenges like heat and bud rot, the final result was spectacular: frosty, aromatic, powerful flowers that embody everything beautiful about this craft. As we light the first cured joint, we celebrate not just the harvest, but the journey itself. Until the next grow — stay curious, stay kind, and keep growing. 🌱💚 Thank you to everyone who followed this run — your support, questions, and shared passion have been part of what made this project so rewarding. The full smoke review will follow this harvest report and will be presented in 4K on YouTube, where we’ll document the aroma, flavor, burn, and overall experience with both phenotypes and the pressed hash. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Things are moving along nicely and they are strong bushy plants.I did some defoliation and tied down some branches on one of the three ladies.So far so good I’ll clean up the bottoms soon and possibly add a scrog net.

Today 23/07/22 We are two days into week 5, never talked about nutrient or water’ problems I had some leaves with few yellow marks but very small one beside that I always saw my plants green and happy, here you can see the scrog I set up yesterday not sure if this will work better but I think will help the branches grow further from the others increasing the light they riceve! I made it myself I will order one for the next grown when I will get my grow box! The watermelon is already flowering but the northern light no so today I started feeding the plants with different preparations.. I kept on giving the grow booster with a bit of bloom booster and viceversa for the watermelon! If you have any tips anything you think I’m doing wrong or you see it’s not ok let me know I don’t grow in a box I grow between the curtains and my window so the environment wasn’t always the perfect one
