Out of the 6 Ginger Punch Autos, 4 are looking like healthy seedlings, 1 has some helmet head and is a little behind compared to the others, and 1 of them died :( The Kritic Auto hasn't sprouted yet. Not sure what to do with this one. Next week I'll have another LED to have some more light as they go into the vegetative stage. But I would love some high quality lights, but unfortunately I'm on a budget at the moment. Stay tuned!

ZodaZa - Umami Seed Co. Day 81 - watered with 3L of RO tap water, with defined nutrients, mixed in order and then pHd to 6.3. 🚿 She has been working hard on bulking her flower this week and has dried back much faster compared to the previous weeks, so I've increased her water volume from 2 to 3 liters 💪🏻 I've removed a couple of her larger fan leaves to improve overall light penetration, but other than that, I'm just letting her do her thing 🙏🏻☘️

Limited success with LST, but still most likely helped to boost yield. Grew without problems indoors in soil. This pheno had good yield and bud quality, and didn’t stretch too much given it was a sativa-heavy genotype

Just got a new 600w mh/hps light for now it’s in my current setup with my 250 n it’s dimmed to 50%, only reason I mention is b/c the plants seem to be loving it!! They’re 12 days old from seed, still just ph’d water for them! So far so good :P

The guy who sold me the seed said the strain was Critical Man Auto from family ganjah (seed bank). I only bought one seed and it was sent in a non original package. I am wondering if it is truly a Critical man auto. 😦

Start of week 8. Week 7 went well as this girl slowed down her nutrient consumption, she did not need any extra feed during the week. Cleaned up a lot of small dead leaves that had tucked themselves up into bud sites. In this past with this strain, those small drying leaves have caused some bud rot and mold to develop. She smells incredible and is insanely sticky! My best grow of this strain ever! Will flush in 5-7 days, depending on trichomes.

Auto run finished. Flipping photo's to 12/12 next week! Going to install trellis netting, attaching it to the HV kit framing. Going to throw a 3rd LEC 315 CMH in the tent with plans to replace with a HLG 650R LED.

24/03 watered AGAIN after 2 days with 1.5L 5.9 PH 1.5 EC, 5ml/L of Terra Bloom. So far im really happy with plagron. Just one bottle for grow and one for bloom and the plants look healthy and show no signs of deficencies. really happy with the product. Moreso than biobizz, where i used Grow, bloom, calmag, activera and topmax and still fought deficencies here and there. I also am conflicted about the trellis net. I like what it does but i think my tent is too full with plants or too small to really enjoy it growing-wise. I cant move the plants and its hard to reach them during watering. So i removed it again. its an on/off relationship with us :D I also did some more defoliation, PROMISE ITS THE LAST TIME. i took out the plants of the tent for it to better reach the insides of them and made some nice videos of their progress so far. ALSO: Tent smells really good and overwhelming when i open it! sadly, it escapes pretty fast so ill put "normal" smell on here. but its decent! Watered again on 27/03, 1.5l 5ml/L Terra Bloom 1ml/L Green Sensation, 5.8 PH 1.7 EC 29/03, 1.5l 5ml/L Terra Bloom 1ml/L Green Sensation, 5.7 PH 1.7 EC

The plant is just "keep on keeping on". Looks beautiful and is nearing the scrog. It is also nearing time for a second round of topping. I plan on keeping the Gold Leaf in veg for a while as the auto is running on 24, so trying to get close as possible to harvest for the auto before I flip the lights. Aiming for an xmas yield for the gold leaf. I also performed some super cropping this week. Wish i had take close up photos on the branches, it work like a charm. The plant growth really took off. In some of the photos you can see the branches are a bit twist and recovering from the super cropping.

this girl grows like a dream takes training topping great she grows more vertical than horizontal so would recommend topping she has good bud to leaf ratio and is an easy grow did get a bit of mould on 2 big colas but that was probably more due to the conditions would recommend to anyone thanks for reading happy growing guys

OMG!! Holy Smoke strains are just next level beast's. The amount of stretching I've had to deal with in just the 1st 2 weeks of Flower is fucking unreal. Haven't seen it with any other strains from other seedbanks..... So far only HOLY SMOKE 👍🏾🍓😎

🌱 Week 11 from Seed — Week 7 Flower LSD — The Observation Phase We’ve reached that point in the run where the work becomes less visible… but more important than ever. For anyone just joining us, this run has been built on consistency. From seed to now, we’ve maintained stable environmental conditions — temperatures, humidity, feeding, and watering practices have remained unchanged because the plant has been responding exactly how we want. No need to fix what isn’t broken. This is key: progress doesn’t always come from doing more — sometimes it comes from doing less, but doing it right. ⸻ 👁️ What This Week Is This is a monitoring week. At this stage, the plant is fully focused on flower development. Buds are stacking, structure is defined, and now the priority shifts from pushing growth… to protecting it. Our role right now: * Stay consistent * Stay present * Stay observant We’re still hand watering, still giving them that direct attention, still reading the plant daily. Not reacting — interpreting. ⸻ ⚠️ What This Week Is NOT This is not the time for: * Big changes * Heavy feeding adjustments * Unnecessary stress And most importantly — this is not the time to “get bored” and start doing things just to feel productive. Because right now, overdoing is more dangerous than underdoing. ⸻ 🔍 The Importance of Observation Even if it looks like “nothing is happening”… everything is happening. This is where experience shows. We’re actively watching for: * Early signs of mold or bud rot * Humidity pockets within the canopy * Powdery mildew risks * Any late-stage deficiencies or imbalances Catching something early here makes all the difference. Waiting too long can cost the entire run. So yes — it might look calm. But this is one of the most active mental phases of the grow. ⸻ 🌿 Presence Over Action There’s something else here that doesn’t get talked about enough: Just being there matters. Walking into the room. Looking at them closely. Understanding their rhythm. You start noticing the small things — the details that don’t show up in charts or numbers. This is where growing becomes less mechanical… and more intuitive. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week We’re moving deeper into flower maturity. You can expect: * Continued bud swelling * Increased density * More pronounced aromas * Resin production becoming more visible What not to expect: * Explosive vertical growth (that phase is behind us) * Major structural changes From here on, it’s refinement. ⸻ 🧤 Mr. Baggy Report Mr. Baggy is still on duty, as always — making sure everything is exactly where it should be. Quiet week for him too… but we all know those are the ones where he’s watching the hardest 👀 ⸻ 🤝 Shoutouts As always — this doesn’t happen alone. Shoutout to: * The Grow Diaries platform * The community following along week after week * The OGs who’ve been here since day one * The new eyes joining the journey * The supporters, the critics, the silent watchers * The genetics behind this LSD run * And everyone who takes a moment to learn, share, or grow alongside us From grower to growers — respect. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. 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.

23.04.2025 Day 51. God Dang these ladies are beginning to pack a punch. In the past week the chemdawg has strected. No smell yet on chemdawg. As for the others, the flower are terping up. The struggling one has begun showing some nice purple flowers and smells like bubblegum. Another one smells sour like a green or unriped mango and the next one just smells sweet like candy. Flowers are swelling and begun to put on weight. During the past week I topped up reservoirs with nutrient solution but today i changed out reservoir with fresh nutrient solution. No training was done This week.
