🌱 Week 1 — LSD (Zamnesia Seeds) – 12/12 From Seed | Update & Observations ✨ Introduction & Gratitude A massive thank you to everyone supporting this project: • Zamnesia Seeds for the LSD feminized genetics. • Plagron for LightMix Bio and the nutrient line powering this run. • Future of Grow for the Air Grow Pro III 2.95 Hyper Red LED & Nova 2C Pro controller. • Cannakan for the germination bundle and clean start. • And of course — GrowDiaries community, followers, supporters, critics – all of you bringing energy to the project. Your presence transforms a simple grow into a full learning journey. ⸻ 🌱 Germination Success & Early Structure Many seeds germinated beautifully — strong, vibrant, full of potential. I’m officially cataloging two plants here on GrowDiaries, but behind the scenes I’m maintaining several siblings for phenotype observation and comparison. This run is 12/12 from seed, which creates a very specific growth pattern: During Week 1: • Plants remain very small (just a couple of centimeters). • Above-ground growth is minimal. • Below-ground activity is extremely high. This is expected — and intentional. ⸻ 🌘 Understanding 12/12 From Seed When a plant receives 12/12 from day one, the message is: “The season is ending soon — focus on rooting and survival.” So instead of stretching or building large leaves, she invests early energy into: • Expanding roots • Stabilizing her metabolism • Preparing for an early, compact flowering cycle • Setting the foundation before vertical growth begins From my past 12/12 tests, this is always the pattern: Weeks 1–3 = Root-building mode Then suddenly — they take off. This method produces smaller but extremely resinous plants with fast turnaround and interesting terpene expression. ⸻ 💧 Feeding – Plagron Nutrient Strategy (Week 1) Even in Week 1 we’re feeding intentionally, because 12/12 requires an accelerated metabolic ramp. Water mix: • Terra Grow: 25 ml / 10 L • Power Roots: 1 ml / L • Pure Zym: 1 ml / L • Sugar Royal: 1 ml / L Foliar spray: • Vita Race: 2.5 ml / L Why this works: • Power Roots accelerates root mass — crucial for 12/12. • Pure Zym keeps soil active and helps nutrient absorption. • Sugar Royal boosts stress tolerance & vigor. • Terra Grow prevents early N deficiencies. • Vita Race strengthens the seedlings right away. This creates a balanced early nutrient environment for fast-cycle genetics. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Water Metrics Everything is stable and aligned with early root development: • EC: ~1.0 • pH: ~6.0 • Water temperature: 21–22°C • Room temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: 65–70% • CO₂: ~666 ppm (a number I personally enjoy 😄) This environment encourages rapid enzymatic activity, strong roots, and good nutrient flow. ⸻ 💡 Lighting – 500 PPFD From Day One We’re running 500 PPFD from the start, controlled by the Nova 2C Pro. Most growers start low… but in 12/12 from seed, higher PPFD ensures the plants receive enough total daily light early on. Why this works: • Ensures strong photosynthesis despite short photoperiod • Prepares the plants for higher PPFD later • Reduces stretch • Works extremely well with the Future of Grow Hyper Red spectrum The seedlings are responding exactly as expected — compact and healthy. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Weeks 2–3 • Slow, steady vertical growth • Leaf expansion • Root zone fully activates • First signs of hormonal shift toward pre-flower Weeks 4–5 • Miniature stretch phase • Formation of early bud sites • Structure hardens and prepares for flower stacking This run will produce compact, fast, resin-rich plants — perfect for demonstrating what’s possible with professional gear and alternative light cycles. ⸻ 📊 Metrics Being Tracked To keep this educational and transparent, we’re logging: • PPFD (currently 500) • Light height & dimmer percentage • Temperature / humidity / VPD • EC, pH, water temp • Feeding amounts & intervals • Growth progression, morphology, and structure • Differences between the official GD plants and the siblings ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Week 1 sets the foundation for an exciting 12/12 run with LSD from Zamnesia. This method is unconventional — but extremely rewarding when executed properly. And with: • High-quality genetics • Plagron nutrients • Professional-grade light from Future of Grow • Clean germination support from Cannakan • And an active, engaged community …this project becomes more than a grow. It becomes a shared learning experience. Thank you to everyone following, supporting, questioning, watching, and sending energy. You make this journey meaningful.

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.

She started popping pistils. She just got into preflowering let's see how she does. Day 40 flushed her with ph balanced water to remove the salt build up Day 42: Had an accident today tho she recovering and she's totally droopy. Day 44: Thank God She has started stretching again

Not much to say about this real first grow week’s start. Everything looks ok, steady growth at 40% light. I had to restart the control app a few times, therefore the broken graphs. At night times, the control software tries to attain optimum humidity rather than optimum VPD. That’s why VPD is dropping when the lights are out. CO2 is back to baseline – really wonder what the reliable values are … I found I have to silence the blowers when a timelapse photo is being taken. The shaking you see at the beginning of the grow video should not appear, or to a much less degree, in the future. Day 13 (July 30th) shows good, steady growth. Leaves are a bit spotty, although less then the processed images show. Something to be worried about? I would not currently … All are developing their 3rd nodes now. The controlling Raspberry Pi crashed last night when I tried to access it remotely … ;( – looks like the Connect software is in need of an update. The leaf temperature sensor is now really aimed at lady-to-be nr. 1’s leaves. Nothing to change that I see. I won’t cut the top yet, just watered the outer circle of the big pots slightly to encourage root growth. Day 14: Nice growth. First plant is now at 11 cm, and at 12 cm on day 15. Nothing special to report so far, except for I had to move the internal camera a bit upwards to keep little lady #1 in focus. Day 16 and last day of this week (Aug 2nd): The young ladies are now at about 14 cm tall. Growth looks very compact though. I think the two inside girls will lose their heads next week; I’d still prefer to have one or two more nodes available. Pictures of this day are taken at the end of the plants’ day. Notice their leaves are pointing upwards, which should be a sign that they want more light. I turned the lights up by another 20% for a total of 60 W now. Weather was pretty hot the last days so it wasn’t possible to stay in optimum VPD range but as long as growth is this satisfying I don’t mind. I will water them slightly at their next day start. Outside plant’s soil humidity might still be at around 58% officially, but drying starts at around 40% with this measurement and the sensors are placed quite closely to the stems so outer soil is dryer. I am preparing the plant water with some additions and a frequency imprint suing some Solfeggio and Schumann frequencies.

Has been a good week, back to full nutrients after running out of bloom and top max so should hopefully see alot of growth this week from my lemons and some bud fattening on my pineapple 😁 I think the pineapple has a couple weeks left til I do a flush but gonna try to resist chopping her down too early wanna get this one right 🤞 Hope everyone's having a good week ✌️

Never afraid to show people the truth and bounce back on these autos. I was absent 5 days. You can the coco went bone dry as dick. Within 7 hours the girl back to her healthy glow. Unfazed I'm so keen for this one. So much purple like my c4. Tall as fuck and nugs are slowly filling in her gapes. All the little ones are so happy. I'm one happy grower :) will update with more photos later today. A nice beautiful update on 3/13 holy fuck just realized today friday the 13th haha. Night queen starting to fill in nicely as the weeks go by. About to hit her with another strong feed. ^_^ Another update on 3/16 before the end of the week bud sites are really starting to fill in now 3 more weeks to go ^_^. Strong feeds all week then going be regular water for about 2 weeks. Give it a nice fade :). Thank you to everyone who watched this beautiful plant grow.

Antes del resumen, decir que el controlador Tent-X de TrolMaster es una pasada. Puedo ver y controlar la VPD en tiempo real con la app de mi Smartphone Una maravilla en esta fase de floración avanzada! 😍 _______________________________________________________________ Día 69 (25/03) Su hermana Gorilla Cookies FF muestra una ligera necrosis... me preocupa...

Top leaves are turning yellow probably due to excess light and heat. Temperatures are very high above 30oC in southeastern Brazil. I increased the lighting distance 30cm from the top. QB LM301H 120W

I wished that I could've done things a little different but the end result was fiiire! Taste like Peaches when you give it a nice 4 week cure. Wish that I could've yielded more. But experience will overcome all my flaws. But it will only get better.

So she's grown a lot since last week! The mutation is looking a little crazy still and I attempted LST and messed it up totally. Im sure it'll all work out in the end but I really would like to start widening the plant and use some horizontal space while we're still in veg. This could potentially be my longest grow, in duration. So I'll definitely need to train ASAP anyway. Here is what I did this week. 10.7.25: I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 5.9 and containing the following nutrients; 💜 1/2 TSP Cal-Mag 💜 1/2 TSP Mega Crop Part A PH: 5 9 PPM: 1510. Thanks for checking in and hanging out this week 💚✌️🍃😊🌱

On may 6, the seedling broke through the earth. Seedling developed well in the first week. It was watered every day with a spray bottle (approx. 50ml a day) with collected rainwater in small circles around the seedling. After day 4, the first roots could be seen at the bottom of the pot. This weeks weather was pretty good for the start. The daytime temperatures fluctuated between 18 and 26 degrees in the first week, as you can see from the past weather data. (The weather report is added at the end of each week and is based on real weather events, i.e. it is not a forecast). As already mentioned the plant receives additional hours light from an LED bulb (17W, 4000K, 2500 Lumen) for the first days to make them more resistant to pests and severe weather conditions. She get around 3 hours additional light. In the early morning i move the plant outdoor.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la décima y última semana de floración de estas Lemonpaya feminizadas de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros que además provocó un shock que también solucione. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/24 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Las flores están bien prietas y sacan unos aromas cítricos bien llamativos, que locura como se han puesto. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Pheno #1/2 are coming up to 4 weeks in a couple of days and they are doing great… just set up my 4x4 so more room!! Pheno #3 is just 3 weeks and as big as the rest which is great the node space is just amazing on these and I can wait to see the flower results on these 💪

Start week 5 , Bio Grow 2 ml/L + Bio Bloom 1 ml/L + Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra 1 ml/L + CarboLoad 1 ml/L (Ph 6.7).

Ok the branches on this one were barely able to support the buds, while a good thing to have heavy buds give this Si from early veg to late flower to keep em strong. Lot of leaves but not a pain smells great but can be a little funky at times right after lights on.

These are some slow and steady girls ..They look closer to week 5 of veg however the reds (Osram) in the SP-3000 have made these very plants extremely strong/woody, they'll have no issue holding whatever weight may come. Temps have been outstanding lately, we couldn't ask for better conditions. We're still feeding these girls with nearly every watering and they're handling it very well. We started 15-20 solo cups of our own cross and have tucked them behind the Banger's, we'll likely turn the whole tent to flower after they break the soil. We'll probably introduce light bloom nutrients for the Seedsman stuff this week. Thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️💡🌱😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

The size of the colas on this plant is unbelievable. 8 to 10 inches long and as big around as a soda can. 20-30 days left and this dank beast is gonna be heavy!

look like streching has started significantly..

Hi there. Here’s a few photos and videos over the past few weeks. I transplanted the Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flowering ladies outdoors around May 24th. A little sooner than I had planned, but they were starting to get root bound in their starter containers. They have been exploding with growth since the transplant. The larger plant is already 4’ tall and the shorter one is 39”. Fast Buds website says up to 3 Meters (10 Feet) outdoors. At this pace they might exceed that!!!👍👍
