Harvest was done on a lovely summer day. Since summer was approaching, half of the harvest was hung upside down with the classic 60/60 and rest is stored in a wine cooler for drying. There’s also an oscillating fan below for airflow!

Been flushing for the past 2 weeks. Accidentally missed a watering and the leaves did not appreciate it.

Viele kleine Popcorn Buds. Das nächste mal bei der Sorte dann doch weniger Triebe vielleicht.

Semana del 9 al 15 de septiembre 2024, van un poco lentas, pero se ven prometedoras ojala todo salga bien con está ya que es mi segunda vez probando Paradise.

🌿 LSD — Week 8 From Seed (Week 4 Flower – Photoperiod) The room is full. Not chaotic-full. Intentional-full. And that’s a big difference. ⸻ 🌡️ ENVIRONMENT ANALYSIS 📊 Current Metrics • Canopy temp: 27.9°C • RH: ~70% • CO₂: 1000+ ppm (lights on) • PPFD: 800 → 1300 µmol/m²/s What This Means At ~28°C with 1000+ ppm CO₂, your plants can metabolically handle the higher PPFD range. This is a high-energy room right now. Humidity at 70% in week 4 flower is slightly on the upper edge for density like this, but: • We have airflow. • We have under-canopy lighting. • We have structured spacing. So this isn’t panic territory. It’s “monitor closely” territory. ⸻ 🌱 SUBSTRATE & FEEDING • Soil EC: 0.91 • Watering EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 • Medium temp: ~22.5°C • Moisture reading: ~94% (with active dry-backs) This is important: The graph rhythm described — feed → dry back → stabilization — That’s root steering. Your soil isn’t waterlogged. Your EC isn’t stacking. They’re drinking aggressively. And in week 4 flower, that’s exactly what you want. This is peak nitrogen-to-potassium transition phase. ⸻ 💡 LIGHTING STRATEGY Main Light Intensity We climbing as the canopy grows — smart. UVA/UVB — 6 Hours Mid-Cycle This is controlled stress application. At this stage (early-to-mid flower): • Trichome precursors are developing. • Secondary metabolite pathways are active. • Defense response can be nudged. Important: UV doesn’t create resin. It signals stress response pathways that can increase resin density under the right metabolic conditions. So far: No tacoing. No bleaching. No premature fade. That means dosage is within tolerance. ⸻ 🔴 15-Minute End-of-Day Red This is circadian tightening. Phytochrome manipulation: Pfr → Pr conversion accelerates. The plant “understands” night faster. Will yield explode? No. Will rhythm sharpen? Possibly. Subtle tools are what refine grows. ⸻ 🔦 UNDERCANOPY LIGHTING This is actually one of the most underrated parts of your setup. In a dense canopy like this: Benefits: • Lower bud sites don’t starve. • Hormonal dominance softens. • Larf reduction. • Internal airflow improves. Our structure supports it — because you didn’t over-strip last week. ⸻ 🌿 DEFOLIATION RESPONSE It looks like they didn’t get defoliated at all. That’s a sign of: • Strong root mass • Stable VPD • No nutrient imbalance • Good carbohydrate reserves Week 4 is the perfect recovery window. If they had stalled? You’d see smaller bud initiation. We’re not. ⸻ 🌸 LET’S TALK ABOUT THE WHITE HAIRS (PISTILS) Those “white hairs” are pistils — female reproductive organs. They are: • Stigma structures • Designed to catch pollen • Directly connected to ovule tissue inside the calyx Why are they exploding now? Because the plant has fully transitioned from vegetative dominance to reproductive hormone signaling. Auxin redistribution shifts. Gibberellins reduce. Flowering genes are active. We’re now in: Active bud site multiplication phase. The number of pistils at week 4 indicates: • Good hormonal balance • No stress-induced reversion • Strong floral initiation ⸻ 🌿 STRUCTURE – HYBRID BUT SATIVA EXPRESSION We’re noticing: • Vertical middle branching • Internodal stretch • Upward lateral arms Even though LSD is a hybrid, phenotype expression can lean sativa structurally. This gives us: • Longer cola potential • Slightly airier stacking (good for airflow) • Potentially later bulking Now the question: Will this become a dominant main cola? Based on structure: Yes — but not a single spear. More likely: A structured central column with strong secondary tops. We didn’t top aggressively. So apical dominance remains. But the mid-sides are competitive. This is a balanced dominance structure — not a Christmas tree, not a bush. ⸻ 📈 WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT WEEK (Week 5 Flower) You should see: Calyx swelling begins Pistils start thickening, not just multiplying Slight trichome production visible on sugar leaves Stretch slowing down Nutrient demand increases What you should NOT expect yet: ✘ Major bud density ✘ Heavy trichome frosting ✘ Fan leaf fade ✘ Pistil darkening in bulk We’re still in building phase. ⸻ 🧠 ONE IMPORTANT THING Humidity at 70% in week 5 will become more critical. As density increases: We will lower it gradually toward 60–62%. Not aggressively. Gradually. Our room is stable. We don’t shock it. ⸻ 🌿 OVERALL IMPRESSION They look: • Even • Uniform • Almost clone-like • Structurally consistent That uniformity from seed? That’s good selection genetics. This room feels intentional. Not experimental. Not chaotic. Controlled. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@DOGDOGTHEDOCTOR NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

Still trucking along. I had my light turned up a bit high for the first week, I turned them down a few days ago and all the plants seemed to enjoy it. Nothing else to report really.

This week was great took some more cuttings .....testing wich method is more successful .... airoponics vs coco perlite mix Same light same hours ...no nutrients ....lost 1in the coco perlite dome

A partir de ahora agua hasta el fin.

Trichomes are developing well, still mostly clear at the moment. The plant has finished stretching and is now focusing on bulking. I slightly increased her feed and hope she’ll put on more weight soon.

Bruce Banner #3 fast is growing fast. She just got topped, and roots pruned. It took a bit to grow into the nutrition. I made it a little strong my bad. She is all good now, and making progress under the Hortibloom Solux 350. Nothing else to report.

Working on getting these girls a bit bushier to fill up the pots a bit more before bloom. Tried to top them both the same, but one grew two new stems (as expected) and the other grew 4... No idea what I did?

It was time to switch over to the DWC setup and really get things going! I set the levels for the equipment with the AI controller (fan, lights, humidifier) and hung the EVO6 light around 18” from the canopy keeping LEDs at 45% on a 18/6 cycle. Using 15 Gallons of RO water to fill the bin just under the net pots I also started to add the @athena_official nutrients. They sent me samples to test out the blended line and will be using the recommended measurements throughout the grow. Starting out I will be using Grow A&B, Cal Mag, and cleanse in the recommended dose. Waiting on my @ACINFINITY_INC Hydro Sensor to get in so until then im stuck using my trusty Amazon stick testers 🤣 RO Water ph: 5.8 PPM: 375 EC: 0.85 Water Temp - 68*F Air Temp - 74 (Lights On) 68 Lights Off Humidity - 60% on average Roots started to come through the net pots towards the end of week 3. ** Added 3mL/Gallon of CalMag in the middle of the week as plants started getting a few spots and turning a pale shade of green. Trying to get things dialed with the nutrients the first few days.

Today is a great day here with the papaya bomb cotten candy! I have done a lot of work with this plant and she is lovingggggg it! let me tell you! with everytt branch topped and healed we are looking at a total of 34 coals in the 2x2 to fill her up! I might try to take some clones as she is a simi fast term. And I will be having to make the flip to a 12/12 It wwould be bad asss if I can get some clones from her!!! But I am just excited to get some phat ole dank coals from her!!! She wants to produce them haha letsssss goooo any thoughts idewas comments questions im always here :) MUCH LOVE HAPPY GROWING

hello folks Been a very progressive week for girls. Difference with Mammoth and Recharge is HUGE, flowers are stacking well nice...that never happened before. Either that or all 4 girls have some great genetics, or could be both 😋 Slight increase in Cal mag and Ph calibration seems to have fixed the issue. not getting anymore marks and the existing ones are hard to notice now. As canopy fills again, Humidity becomes a bit higher at night so I have to keep defoliating to an extent to keep the humid down in room. That also helps light to penetrate deeper & cooking the flowers under. compared to last week only, difference is big. Got to say Blue Dream smells incredible and the most out of all at the moment. In the face lemons !!!

Today: 14.18 hours of light 100.4 °F 58%Rh 1 million of mosquitos I've spent this hot week training these two plants trying to keep them the lower as possible since the two main buds have reached the roof (7.87 ft tall). Cookies Gelato is about 9.50 ft tall. I've applied white plastic net all around the pergola to give them some shade in order to slow down the metabolism. These plants are giant and there is no more space to move around. Asparagus stalks are well formed so this is, hopefully, the last preflowering week. Cookies is hungry and some bottom fan leaves start to show chlorosis but the top/mid canopy is plenty of natural nitrogen. During these last weeks I've watered them with 4-5 gallons each, leaving the soil to dry for 2/3 days, they seem to love this scheme. Also, the fact of not having pluck away even a leaf made these plants big and extremely vigorous. Tomorrow I will create a roof with clear plastic rolls as the nighttime humidity begins to increase and some summer thunderstorms are on the horizon.

💩Holy Crap We Are Back At It And Loving It💩 Growmies we are at DAY 21 and she's just killing💀it👌 So Shit , I gave them just a tad to much nutes 👈 But I have since fixed it So I'm starting to pull her over and do some low stress training 🙃 Lights being readjusted and chart updated .........👍rain water to be used entire growth👈 👉I used NutriNPK for nutrients for my grows and welcome anyone to give them a try .👈 👉 www.nutrinpk.com 👈 NutriNPK Cal MAG 14-0-14 NutriNPK Grow 28-14-14 NutriNPK Bloom 8-20-30 NutriNPK Bloom Booster 0-52-34 I GOT MULTIPLE DIARIES ON THE GO 😱 please check them out 😎 👉THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO GO OVER MY DIARIES 👈
