Animal Mints — Week 11 (Week 6 Flower) “Legends of the Frozen North” 12/12 from seed — no traditional veg phase. A direct transition from seedling into flowering rhythm. This run was never about controlling the plant. It was about creating the conditions… and letting the plant decide the rest. ⸻ 🌱 How did we get here — 12/12 from seed From day one, these plants were placed under a 12/12 cycle. No extended vegetative phase, no shaping beforehand. What you see now is the result of: * Early root establishment * Immediate flowering signal * Structural decisions made by the plant itself This creates a different type of growth: Less stretch chaos, more compact intention. Not bigger plants — but often denser, faster-finishing expressions. ⸻ 🌿 The Room — Controlled, but not forced At first glance, some parameters might look “unusual” for this stage. But everything is dialed based on leaf feedback (EPD) — not charts, not assumptions. * Temps: 26°C day / 18°C night * RH: ~60% * Solution & substrate: ~21°C * PPFD: plant-grown into the light (~600–700 range) We don’t chase numbers. We read the plant — and adjust only when she asks. ⸻ ❄️ Trichomes — The “Frozen North” is real This is where she speaks loudest. Trichome production is not just present — it’s accelerating daily. * Sugar leaves fully coated * Bud surfaces stacking resin layer by layer * That early frost has turned into visible density This isn’t just aesthetics. This is the plant investing heavily in protection and reproduction. And she’s not done yet. ⸻ 🌸 Pistils & Flower Development White hairs still active, still pushing. That tells us one thing clearly: ➡️ She’s still building, not finishing Calyx swelling is underway, but not peaked. Structure is set — now it’s about mass + resin + final expression. ⸻ ⚖️ Weight, Structure & “The Lean” Branches are starting to give in to gravity. Not collapse — commitment. This is the moment where: * Density becomes visible * Structure gets tested * Support decisions begin No stress signals — just natural load from proper development. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition — Simple, consistent, intentional Current feeding: * Terra Bloom * Pure Zym * Sugar Royal * Power Buds * Green Sensation * CalMag Pro pH ~6.5 | EC ~2.0 Nothing excessive, nothing reactive. The idea is simple: ➡️ Feed enough to sustain expression, not to force it. Stable input = stable output. ⸻ 💡 Under Canopy Lighting — Why it matters This is where things get interesting. Under-canopy lighting is helping: * Lower bud sites stay active * Improved light penetration in dense zones * More uniform development across the plant Instead of larf, we’re seeing usable structure deeper into the canopy. It’s not about pushing more — it’s about unlocking what’s already there. ⸻ 🧠 Observations This phenotype… has personality. * Slightly dramatic structure * Heavy resin production * Compact but expressive Not the tallest. Not the loudest in height. But easily one of the most present plants in the room. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect next week * Continued trichome stacking * Calyx swelling becoming more pronounced * First signs of pistil transition (some darkening) * Increased weight → more need for support We’re entering that phase where daily changes become visible. ⸻ 🙏 Final Words To everyone following this journey: * The OGs who’ve been here from the start * The new eyes discovering the process * The skeptics, the questioners — always welcome * The silent supporters * The platform for hosting this space * The sponsors and partners * The genetics behind this expression And of course… the plants themselves. This room is alive. And we’re just here to witness it.

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.

Zítra přepínám 12/12🌷🌷🌷

Servus zusammen 🏽 Eine Woche wird die kleine noch im Zelt verbringen Danach geht es in einen 25 Liter Stofftopf mit living soil und dann raus auf den Balkon

She recovered nicely from the harsh burning of the heater

Good development like her sister dark devil #3 planted tje same day on August 3rd,good size for 17 days old, let's see how she performs,looks super happy in a very rich and complete soul full of organic amendments and beneficial bacteria and fungi life.

Let the flushing begin! Super pumped to finally be at the end of this first grow of this strain. 4 liters water for the flush. The last week she put on a little bit of size, but probably more density in the buds as well as terpenes and smell was gained.

Welcome to the Zamnesia Spring Cup 🏆 Hi all 🤗 She continued to do very well this week 😍. On June 28th she was placed in the flowering tent, where she now has a light duration of 12/12 h. I am very curious to see how it develops in bloom, and what a smell will end up blowing through the tent 😍. She still has enough nutrients left, so I will probably only give Monster Bud Mix again in 2-3 weeks :-). I wish you all a lot of fun with the diary, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🌱🍀 You can Buy This Strain @ www.Zamnesia.com Zamnesia Spring Cup 🏆🏆🏆 Type: Runtz ☝️🏼 Genetics: Zkittlez x Gelato 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205 W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Bio ☝️🏼 Nutrients : Monster Bud Mix ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC. Add Cal / Mag to 0.4 Ec Ph with Organic Ph - to 6.0 - 6.3 💦💧

Day 64 10/07- Welcome to the beginning of week five of flower for these ladies. They should really start fatting up now. The smell is very strong as soon as you open tent it just hits you in the face. Day 67 10/10- Fed nutrients as you can tell on one plant she is a heavy feeder. Just added 2.5ml of tiger bloom for the phosphors deficiency, other than that she is doing great flowers are really fatting up now. Day 70 10/13- End of another flower week. We should have 1.5-2 weeks left. Also after today they will just get plain water Ph to 6.3 to start flushing.

Journal de Culture : Frost 1 (Semaine 6) ​Génétique : Frostbanger (F2 Perso) | Système : Autopot 20L ​📣 Remerciements ​Un immense merci à toutes les personnes qui suivent ce journal depuis le début ! Un grand merci en particulier à @MIA_BIOTABS et à Mrs_Larimar pour leurs précieux conseils toujours aussi utiles. Merci à tous pour votre soutien ! ​🛠️ Configuration Technique & Gestion de l'Espace ​Éclairage : Lumatek ATS 300W Pro (réglé à 75%) ​Distance lampe/canopée : 52 cm (obtenue de justesse après domptage) ​Climat : Jour : 25°C / Nuit : 21°C ​Humidité (HR) : 50% ​Tente : 1m80 de hauteur ​📅 Évolution, Changement d'Espace et Domptage du Stretch ​Observations Phénotypiques & Réorganisation de la Tente : Sur cette session de Frostbanger F2 perso, la stabilité nous montre deux phénotypes bien distincts qui ressortent entre elle et sa sœur : un phénotype violet et un phénotype plus vert. ​Grand soulagement dans la box : nous étions à 4 plantes au départ dans cet espace. J'ai enfin pu déplacer les deux MAC 1 dans la tente qui leur était initialement prévue. Avec le recul, je me suis rendu compte que l'une des MAC 1 avait pris une envergure tellement énorme qu'elle masquait et bloquait le développement de nombreuses branches secondaires sur les trois autres plantes ! ​Aujourd'hui, la structure de ma Frostbanger est vraiment très belle, mais je reste persuadé qu'elle aurait pu être encore plus impressionnante si elles n'avaient pas été entassées à 4 au début. Maintenant qu'elle a de la place, elle va pouvoir s'exprimer pleinement ! ​Le combat contre la hauteur (Nouveau LST) : ​Hauteur maximale atteinte : Libérée de ses voisines, la demoiselle a complètement explosé sa croissance verticale pour culminer à plus de 87 cm de hauteur ! ​Action : Face à cette poussée ingérable et pour éviter qu'elle ne finisse brûlée dans le panneau, j'ai dû ressortir les ficelles et refaire un gros LST pour la coucher et contraindre sa structure. ​Hauteur après LST : 78 cm (Ce qui nous fait tout de même +10 cm par rapport à la semaine dernière, tout en ayant gagné 9 cm de sécurité grâce au pliage). ​Le casse-tête du Système D pour la lampe : Avec un pot de 37 cm de haut, le sommet de la plante après son palissage culmine tout de même à 1m15 du sol. ​En ayant supprimé les attaches d'origine qui me faisaient perdre 10 cm pour la suspendre au plus haut directement avec des ficelles (système D), mon panneau est calé à environ 1m67 du sol. ​Cela me permet de maintenir mes 52 cm de distance de sécurité avec la canopée. ​Si je plaque la lampe à fond contre les barres de toit de la tente, je n'ai plus que 10 cm de marge de manœuvre totale pour toute la fin de session. C'est très serré ! ​Nutrition & Gestion Autopot : ​Action : Je viens tout juste de couper l'arrivée d'eau de l'Autopot. ​Objectif : Je laisse le pot sécher tranquillement pour les prochains jours. Dès que le substrat sera bien sec et aéré, je lui ferai un arrosage manuel pour envoyer le PK 5-8 de chez Biotabs afin de donner un grand coup de fouet aux premiers pompons qui pointent le bout de leur nez. le 21/05 Apport de 0,75 cl d'eau avec 4 ml de PK 5-8 biotabs PH 6,3 ​Résumé : Le grand ménage dans la tente et le nouveau palissage ont permis de rééquilibrer la canopée. Les branches secondaires, enfin libérées de l'ombre des MAC 1, vont pouvoir profiter à 100% de la lumière. Malgré l'espace restreint en hauteur, la plante affiche une santé resplendissante et commence à bien cristalliser. ​À bientôt pour le premier engraissage PK !❤️

Gave them rain water when they needed it 👍

Girls keep growing pretty well in my rookie opinion, giving them a lot of time and love ❤️!!

WEEK 11 - (05/09/2021 - 05/15/2021) Week 3, Day 17 - FLOWER: 05/11/2021 Doing 2 gallons of water per 5 gallon pot this watering due to lack of runoff in weeks prior. I’m thinking I could be letting the pots dry out a little too long in between so the 1.5 gallons hasn’t been enough for each watering. When I stick my finger into the medium 2 or 3 days after watering it still seems like the soil has plenty of moisture so I wait another day or two. I know fabric pots are supposed to dry out usually in 2-3 days, but the soil still seems too moist, and I don’t want to overwater. It seems like ever since transplanting into 5 gallons and switching them to a 12/12 light cycle, watering got more complicated. Maybe I am overthinking the whole process. I just don’t want to risk ruining my crop, you know? Tap water: 223ppm, 8.6 pH, 70℉ (9 gallons total) + HydroGuard: 9ml/9 gallons + pH Down: 30ml/9 gallons Mixture: 267ppm, 6.0 pH, 70.4℉ ppm/ppm = runoff/soil JB#1 - 1330ppm/1063ppm, 6.3 pH AP#1 - 1310ppm/1043ppm, 6.3 pH AP#2 - 1160ppm/893ppm, 6.7 pH GC#1 - 1350ppm/1083ppm, 6.3 pH -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 3, Day 20 - FLOWER: 05/14/2021 Watered a day earlier than I usually do, with .5 gallons less water per plant. So each plant got a total of 1 gallon of water for their 5 gallon pots. This is really just to take the question out of the back of my mind: Am I letting the pots dry out too much going four days until the next watering? I will check on the plants shortly after they wake up tomorrow to observe their reaction to the watering. None of the plants produced really any runoff, which was boggling to me, because when I water there is usually anywhere between 10-20%, and that’s after watering on the fourth day. Needless to say, I was unable to take readings this time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 3, Day 21 - FLOWER: 05/15/2021 5:30 p.m. - Decided to check on the plants since I watered a day earlier (yesterday) than I have been since transplanting into the 5 gallon fabric pots. This was kind of an experiment to see how the plants would react to watering on the third day rather than the fourth, because I keep doubting myself. Anyway, when I checked in on the plants, a few leaves looked ever so slightly droopy. Not terrible. It appears that some of the leaves had begun to swell up a little as well. Not 100% sure if these are actually early signs of being overwatered this time, or if it’s something I have simply overlooked until now. Just to be sure, I’m going to water once more on the third day to see how the plants respond. The plants seem to be doing well this week. I've finally installed another ScroG net on the second level to help maintain the canopy. Since I cut the first layer of net the plants quickly started to get out of control and began to grow unevenly across the canopy. The trichomes are starting to appear on all of the plants, with the exception of the American Pie #1. This pheno is a little behind. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with how differently this plant was trained compared to her sisters (The manifold/mainline technique was applied). Possibly could have even defoliated her a little too heavy and she's taking a few extra days to bounce back. She's still producing early buds though, which is good. 👌 That just about wraps up this week. Things just keep getting more and more exciting with each journal entry. All the girls should have about 5-7 weeks left in flower before they are ripe for harvest. Hoping to have another tent and light setup by the end of flower so I can get some more seeds started. Thanks for stopping by and spreading the love. And remember: Don't drink and drive, smoke and fly! 🙌

Hello my friend, Plant is ending, I've checked a bit in late the trychromes, as we can see on the movie plant is almost ready to harvest, But I'm just flushing few days, I'm in late, so I'll check trychromes all the days, and I'll try to wait one week to harvest, I like harvest when 75/25 milky/amber. Next week, will be the harvest 😃😃. See you next week for the result, Have a good week

Tangerine Dream Auto - Barney‘s Farm Mein erster Indoor Keller-Grow neigt sich dem Ende zu. Es ist bunt geworden im Zelt. Die erste Blüte habe ich bereits vaporisiert und bin ziemlich begeistert vom Geschmack und der Wirkung. Leider habe ich aufgrund persönlicher Umstände nicht im Ansatz geschafft hier ein paar Tagebücher zu führen. Es war für mich ein extrem stressiger Winter und ich bin froh, dass ich wenigstens regelmäßig ein paar Fotos machen konnte. Der Anbauraum hatte zwischen den Pflanzen gemessen eine Minimaltemperatur von 17,4 Grad und während der Vegetationszeit konnte ich die Auto-Damen Tagsüber mit bis zu 28 Grad unter einer Sanlight Evo 4-120 1,5 verwöhnen. 18/6 - Licht/aus. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit war in der Veggiephase bei ca. 65-75 Prozent im Zelt und in der Blütephase konnte ich sie Stück für Stück absenken auf 55-43 zum Ende hin. Gedüngt habe ich ein einziges Mal mit 1:20 sauberem Urin am Ende der dritten Woche. Ansonsten gieße ich auf das Terra Preta ähnliche Substrat ausschließlich mit hartem Leitungswasser mit Ph 7,6. Das Substrat wurde kurz nach der Sämlingsphase mit einer dicken Schicht Laub, Braun- und Grünschnitt Mulch abgedeckt, welchen ich zuvor dreißig Minuten bei 150 Grad im Ofen gedämpft habe (Sterilisation). Es kamen Nematoden, Raubmilben und Gelbtafeln zum Einsatz, weil wir mit einer ziemlich unangenehmen Trauermückenplage zu kämpfen hatten. Anfang der Blütephase kam es zu einer Nährstoffblokade aufgrund von Überwässerung. Das Substrat hält die Feuchtigkeit sehr lange und die Mulchschicht verhinderte ein Austrocknen des Substrats. Wir haben anfangs deutlich Zuviel gegossen und das Substrat nicht etwas austrocknen lassen. Nach Anpassung des Gießintervalls auf alle drei Tage mit ca. 2-2,5 Liter, löste sich das Problem nicht in Luft auf, aber wir konnten es aufhalten. Meine Pflanzen sind bereits geerntet und hängen zum Trocknen. Viel Spaß mit den farbenfrohen Bildern. Happy Growing! 💚

Hermosa planta, sigue su crecimiento como una campeona, esta semana ha comenzado a despuntar flores, empieza a llenarse pelos blancos, consume bastante agua y nutrientes pero vale la pena ver como los utiliza!! 💪💪💪 Esta semana le voy a colocar un tutor, a planta se esta yendo ligeramente hacia la izquierda y es un potencial riesgo de quiebre una vez que cargue los cogollos. 😎 Beautiful plant, continues its growth as a champion, this week it has begun to show off flowers, white hairs begin to fill, it consumes a lot of water and nutrients but it is worth seeing how it uses them !! 💪💪💪 This week I am going to place a tutor, a plant is going slightly to the left and is a potential risk of breakage once the buds are loaded. 😎

The plant again doubled in size. Not sure if it’s the light, but the plant is growing super bushy. I have already started removing some of the inner shoots, to focus the energy into building some length. The roots are developing phenomenally and she seems to be overall quite happy. Once she is a bit taller, I will probably top her to make sure that I can fill the SCR.O.G. Properly. Light intensity is currently set to somewhere around 80% veg only.

Hello everyone😎 Week 6 of flower for the LCC🍋🍒🍪 All the top buds harvested✂️ I had a lot of fun growing this strain🤩 The smell is absolutely out of this world…the colors…💜 I have 3 different pheno,all purple,some smells more citrus and the others more ripe cherries! One more week for the lower buds and finito I already feel nostalgic😜 *what’s coming out of the yuzu is essentials oil,every year I make Yuzucello feel free to ask me the recipe🍸🍋
