Girls are growing and growing , gave them another trim as they seem to bounce back 10x harder and bushier lol! Starting to think there may be one to many girls in there so hoping everything stays on track or I'm going to need to upgrade their house! Still unsure on doing a sog or using it as a spacer , sorry about the double photos on both diaries , one of the granddaddy purple plants somehow ended up at the back of the tent when one of the super skunk started tailing off and we had to rearrange their place in the tent , not much to report flowers are coming through nicely 😁 Happy growing 😎

Week 8 begins for mandarin dreams and divine storm. All four ladies are frosty, sticky and the mandarin smell is incredibly strong. I love how these girls look and are growing under the TSW2000, they look better than round 1, grown under my own custom Samsung strip's. Thank you Mars-Hydro for the light! Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽🌳💚

This girl is so beautiful and the under canopy has these lower colas looking like the top colas last update on this beautiful girl gonna harvest her in 2 to 3 days give her a final flush and let dry up she has soapy citrus smell to her nice thick trichome coverage amber is coming in nicely can't wait to get tested after harvest nice thick bracts stacked really nicely not much foliage on this girl which is super nice was hoping to have this done by now but lower temps made her grow a little slower but brought out so pretty purple tips can't believe the first round froze in the veg stage when my heater went out but looks like she's gonna finish in time gonna give her a nice 10 day hang maybe less depends how she dries so here's to another harvest

This week I've been focusing on continuing to bend each secondary branch into its final position. I am doing this slowly by making small daily changes, pulling each of the secondary branches away from its adjacent partner. As the tertiary branches grow out, I'll be guiding them out around the net basket. I am in awe of the strength of this plant! 💪 Day 41 - Shaping the Canopy! Our 8 branches have grown out a bit, and it's time for us to take the next step in the mainline! Today we're bringing back the handcuffs 🔗 for a little more bondage action. 😉 Using the same technique as before, I am attaching all the new branches to its adjacent fan leaf in an attempt to gently begin guiding our canopy closer to its final shape. I'll stop back in after a day or 2 to re-anchor all the branches once more, making sure that they're nice and spread out and level with one another. Thanks for following along, growmies! This has been so much fun! 🤓😁💜

LSD — Week 12 12/12 from seed. Late flower. Full expression. Quiet hands, heavy flowers. This is the stage where the grow starts asking less from us — and more from our patience. By now, most of the work is already done. Structure is built. Feeding has done its job. Environment has stayed stable. Roots have carried the weight. And now the plant is doing what it was always meant to do: Finish. This is not the week for chasing numbers. Not the week for aggressive changes. Not the week for “fixing” what clearly isn’t broken. This is the week for restraint. For observation. For letting the plant complete the final chapter on its own terms. And LSD is doing exactly that. ⸻ Quick recap — how we got here This run was never about force. It was about rhythm. From the start, LSD showed what stable genetics + stable conditions can do when they’re allowed to work without interruption. No dramatic swings. No constant corrections. No overhandling. No chasing deficiencies that weren’t there. No feeding for ego. Just consistent inputs, controlled environment, steady root-zone conditions, and enough discipline to leave healthy plants alone. That’s what built this finish. Now, in week 12, we’re seeing the result of every quiet decision made weeks ago: * strong vertical structure * dense flower stacking * steady resin production * proper late-flower fade * increasing floral mass * and a plant that is still focused on ripening, not surviving That matters. Because this stage is no longer about growth. It is about conversion. The plant is no longer trying to become bigger. It is trying to become heavier, louder, stickier, and more chemically complete. And it shows. ⸻ Late flower, properly explained This is one of the most misunderstood stages in the cycle. To newer growers, this phase can look confusing. Leaves begin to fade. White hairs begin to darken. Growth appears slower. The plant drinks differently. Some leaves curl. Some flowers swell unevenly. The plant looks “older.” And that is exactly what should be happening. This is not decline. This is maturation. Late flower is the point where the plant shifts energy away from expansion and into completion. That means: * less vertical push * less fresh green growth * slower water demand * increased resin output * calyx swelling * terpene maturation * pistil oxidation * nutrient drawdown from stored reserves The plant is not slowing down because something is wrong. It is slowing down because it is finishing correctly. ⸻ Trichomes — what they are, and what they are not This is where the real story is now. Trichomes are not “frost.” They are not cosmetic sparkle. They are not just visual proof that a plant “looks strong.” And they are definitely not just sugar. Trichomes are glandular resin heads — microscopic biochemical factories built by the plant. Their job is protection. They exist to defend the flower from: * UV stress * heat * dehydration * pests * fungal pressure * environmental stress And inside those tiny resin glands is where the plant stores much of what we care about most: * cannabinoids * terpenes * flavonoids * volatile compounds * aromatic oils So when we say a plant is “getting frosty,” what we actually mean is: The plant is reaching peak resin production and chemical expression. That frost is chemistry made visible. And right now, LSD is deep in that phase. The resin is no longer just forming. It is maturing. That distinction matters. Early trichomes are mostly clear — immature, still developing, not yet fully expressed. Then they move cloudy/milky — peak cannabinoid development, strongest active expression. Then amber begins — oxidation, degradation, and chemical transition into later-stage ripeness. This is why trichomes matter more than pistils. More than fan leaves. More than fade. Because trichomes tell you what the flower is doing chemically — not just visually. And right now, these plants are no longer building resin. They are finishing it. ⸻ The “curl” in the leaves One of the easiest late-flower details to misread. At this stage, some sugar leaves begin to curl, claw, or fold inward around the flower. New growers often panic here. But in late flower, this is often not a feeding issue. It is not always heat. It is not automatically toxicity. Sometimes, very simply: There is just too much flower and too much resin sitting on too little leaf. At this point the plant is carrying weight, stacking density, and coating nearby leaf tissue in resin so heavily that those small leaves begin to tighten, curl, and fold into the flower. It is a late-stage pressure response. Part mechanical. Part environmental. Part genetic. Very often normal. Context matters. And in this context — dense tops, heavy trichome load, stable temps, no major stress signals — this reads like maturity, not trouble. ⸻ Pistils — why the white hairs are changing This is another classic late-flower marker. Those white hairs are pistils. Early on, they emerge bright white as the flower actively builds and reaches. As the flower matures, those pistils begin to: * darken * curl inward * oxidize * retract into swollen calyx tissue That change from white to orange/brown is not the plant “dying.” It is the flower aging into ripeness. Fresh white pistils usually signal active new flower development. Darkened pistils usually signal that part of the flower is maturing and beginning to finish. This is why late flower often shows both at once: * older pistils darkening * newer pistils still pushing That is normal. Flowers do not ripen all at once. They ripen in layers. And that’s exactly what we’re seeing now. ⸻ Feeding — why less is doing more This is the point where overfeeding does more harm than underfeeding. The plant no longer needs to be pushed. It needs to be allowed to finish. Right now the feed is still simple, controlled, and appropriate: * Pure Zym * Sugar Royal * CalMag Pro * Terra Bloom * Power Buds * Green Sensation Nothing excessive. Nothing chaotic. No late-game bottle collecting. No panic additives. Just enough to support: * final bulking * resin maturity * metabolic efficiency * clean finish That’s the right move here. And yes — next week is likely the point where feedings begin to step down or stop entirely. Not because the plant is starving. Because the plant is done demanding. That’s the difference. Late flower feeding is not about force-feeding weight. It is about supporting the final metabolic steps without leaving excess behind. The closer we get to harvest, the less the plant needs to be fed — and the more it needs to be left alone. ⸻ Environment — why nothing is changing This room is still stable. And stable is exactly what late flower wants. * 26°C day * 18°C night * 60% RH * ~21°C root zone * ~18°C solution * 12/12 unchanged * CO₂ stable * watering controlled And most importantly: The plants clearly like it. So we do not change what is working just because we are close to harvest. Late flower is not the time to start experimenting. Not the time to suddenly drop temperatures. Not the time to force stress. Not the time to chase color. Not the time to “improve” a stable room. Consistency is what got the plants here. Consistency is what finishes them properly. ⸻ Weight gain — where the real growth is now The plant is not stretching anymore. But it is absolutely still growing. Just differently. This is density growth now. Mass growth. Calyx stacking. Internal swelling. Resin thickening. Water redistribution. Final weight. This is where flowers stop looking bigger every day — but start feeling heavier every day. That is late flower. Less visible movement. More invisible gain. And this is where growers who harvest too early lose the most. Not because the plant looked unfinished. Because the final weight had not landed yet. That weight is landing now. ⸻ What to expect next week Next week is likely transition week. Not dramatic. Not aggressive. Just the beginning of the final slowdown. Expect: * less water demand * slower daily movement * more pistil darkening * more calyx swelling * heavier tops * continued fade * trichomes shifting deeper into maturity * feed reduction or full stop approaching This is the point where observation becomes more important than intervention. The job next week is simple: Watch closely. Touch less. Finish clean. ⸻ Final thoughts This is one of the most beautiful parts of the cycle. Not because it is explosive. Because it is precise. This is where good structure becomes good flower. Where patience becomes weight. Where resin becomes chemistry. Where restraint becomes quality. LSD is no longer trying to impress. It is trying to finish. And it is doing that exactly right.

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.

20/03: most of the plants are very near the end - there has been an issue with two kush - severe nute burn - I have hung them up to dry before the burn killed off any of the buds - will cut later this week and add the weight to the overall harvest. 1 more week nutes - 1 week flush and 1 week to dry. The white widow colas are blooming so that the stalks are unable to hold them up - added cable ties to keep everything in place

Day 39 flower!! Not a whole lot to report, just watering every 2-3 days ph 6.5 tap water Top dressed with gaia green bloom 284 with about 2 tablespoons per gallon and then about 2 cups of worm castings. I didnt use All purpose this time around as Im trying to taper off the nitrogen. Hopefully that doesnt come back to bite me Hopefully the girls are done come May is what im hoping for

She's doing amazing, probably the biggest yield of the 3 plants. She's got quite a while left before flushing, those foxtails take a long time to grow. She's smelling super gassy and sweet/sour.

Day 50 since seed touched soil. They overgrew everything !!! Bomb is heavily packed, top bleaching. I think i was late with top up, they developed fast and used a lot. I check run off for ppm, but thought 800 still ok, it was not. So big last top up !!! ALL NUTRITIONS ARE GRAMS TO POT LITRES !!!! Neutralise is in real measurement only. Great White - 3 g each pot Biosys - 3g each pot Charge - 30 g each pot Life-Cycle - 60 g each pot Bio-Blend - 100 g each pot Watered straight after, 3.5 liters went in. Some girls are almost brushing Mars Hydro TSL2000 and i see no issues if air is moved and temp with humidity allows it. Great light, plants grow very well, too well ;)))) will do new clearing after two waterings, want girls to eat first, make bigger roots, then i will resize again to concentrate more on tops. MARS HYDRO TSL2000: 300W, Flower 2'x4', Veg 3'x5' It's recommended for beginners. Low-budget & high-efficiency. Took down first time ever LST while still growing. Needed space of pot, for last top up and i think they will breath better without, branches are stiff, i would add silica to feed at such time, to stiff them, but i go with one line only, just full beans ;))) Happy growing !!!
