Manca poco per Papaya Zoap F1 e Strawberry Cola Sherbet F1 e penso che già settimana prossima verranno tagliate…da oggi inizio a risciacquare bene le radici con ph neutro e darò circa 3 litri d’acqua a ciascuna…per le altre due ci vorrà ancora un po’, Mohan Ram ancora 2 settimane e Jack 47 circa 3! Papaya Zoap è piena di resina, fiori compatti ma non tanto grandi, sicuramente compenserà con il suo profilo di terpeni da far invidia a ogni palato! Strawberry Cola Sherbet invece è più compatta come pianta e con struttura robusta dove la cima apicale è bella grande e appiccicosa di un colore viola intenso anche qui ricoperto bene di resina ma meno di papaya zoap! Le altre due sono indietro e hanno bisogno di più tempo ma anche loro promettono bene! Sono in attesa di vedere come si riempiranno anche loro 😄🌱

🌙 Week 12 from Seed / Week 8 Flower — “The Dark Lady Rising” What a journey this has been. From that single seed born under a 12/12 rhythm, she’s proven that beginnings don’t define limits — they define character. If you’re just joining us, this White Widow from Zamnesia started life under an 11/13 shuttle — a true from-seed flower cycle. While most plants grow before they bloom, she began her story in full awareness of time, learning to balance energy from day one. The 12/12 rhythm teaches a plant to optimize every second of light — to focus not on size, but on efficiency, structure, and density. 🌿 This Week — The Transformation Deepens We’re now in week 8 of flower, and this girl is simply breathtaking. Her buds are dense, coated in frost, and carrying tones of deep green to near-purple, whispering that a darker finish is coming. The trichomes look like they’ve been dusted in starlight — thick, sticky, and reflecting light like ice in a warm glow. The aroma is growing stronger, rich with that unmistakable 90s soul — earthy, spicy, and nostalgic. Every breath feels like opening a time capsule from the golden age. The structure remains compact, balanced between strength and grace. Every cola is firm, symmetrical, and promising exceptional development over the final stretch. 💧 Feedings & Care She continues on her well-calibrated Aptus + Plagron routine: Aptus Regulator for balance and resilience CalMag Boost for structure All-in-One Liquid to sustain her metabolism Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, and Green Sensation to enhance flavor, weight, and resin Even with nutrients in her pre-built soil, these light feedings help her push to full potential — especially under the demanding 12/12-from-seed schedule. 🌞 Environment & Observations The room continues to ride steady despite the season’s warmth — around 28–30°C, with humidity hovering near 55–60%. The VPD sits around 1.4–1.6, right in the sweet spot for flower stacking and trichome expansion. Lighting, managed through Trolmaster with Future of Grow and ThinkGrow LEDs, keeps her under a balanced spectrum with Emerson effect red cycles — 15 minutes before and after lights-on for maximum photosynthetic efficiency. 📸 Photography & Documentation Captured through the loyal Sony a6000, alternating between macro and standard lenses to highlight her best angles — from the full canopy’s dark silhouette to the icy micro-world of her trichomes. Each frame tells a different part of her story. 🌺 What to Expect & What Not In the coming weeks, we expect: Even deeper color tones — likely deep violet or burgundy Continued resin production, especially on sugar leaves Aroma intensification and the start of natural fade What not to expect: Big size changes. She’s already done stretching — it’s all density and maturity now. Harsh stress reactions — this girl has adapted perfectly to her rhythm. 🌍 Gratitude & Vibes To everyone reading, following, commenting — the lovers, the haters, the old souls, and the new wanderers — thank you for being part of this journey. To Zamnesia, for the genetics that bridge generations. To Aptus and Plagron, for the nourishment that sustains life. To Future of Grow, ThinkGrow, and Trolmaster, for the precision and control that bring consistency to creativity. And to this beautiful queen herself — for showing us what happens when you trust nature’s rhythm and let the light guide her story.

Did a light feed flush on Saturday 10-11 and started her on 12/12. Got her first Bloom feed on 10-14. Shes already moved, from 3 days to every other for water. also did a light foliar spray of epson salts. the day she flipped, so it wouldnt affect the sites. after 2 days, she already showing hairs in her bud sites. much quicker than my first time. it took a week. im happy with her space, hopefully don't have to do much till, day 21ish! Oh and Silly kitty! 😻😹

I've been pulling the top fan leaves to stop the main stem growing any taller and repotted them into 4L pots, once they show roots I'll flip them over to flower. They've all outgrown their mutations but the apple fritter has a slight varigation.

Our Gush Mintz have undergone a small revolution and are still super beautiful, even more than before. One of the plants was damaged during the main lining I broke a brunch and it was transformed into a very very beautiful LST plant, it could remain small but I wouldn't swear it has a truly spectacular shape. In this diary therefore you will find the plant worked without techniques that require cutting but only with a LST this time also on the main stem and very aggressive to give a beautiful shape. The comparison is the salt of the experience so the plant in the other diary will be worked very differently. We have started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhiza Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). We are administering // 1 ml/l Power Roots - 1 ml/l Pure Zym - 1 ml/l Sugar Royal - 3 ml/l Alga Grow https://plagron.com/en The doubts about the compatibility between Pure Zym and mycorrhizae have been dispelled, they can get along according to Plagron experts. If someone tells you that enzymes eat mycorrhizae, which in principle may seem possible, explain to them that it is not true. https://www.royalqueenseeds.it/growing/452-easy-roots-mix-di-micorrhize.html Try this strain, it's a top strain of the last few years very high thc level ------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11234-zamnesia-seeds-gush-mintz-automatic.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Gush Mintz Auto is a relaxing hybrid strain that derives from the original Gush Mintz and a high-performance ruderalis specimen. This cross produced a plant with 70% indica and 30% sativa genetics. Her parents have given her a range of interesting traits, including mint and candy flavors and a high THC content of 20%. Smoking these buds provides creative vibes, a sense of euphoria and a pleasant sensation from head to toe. In addition to its enticing flavors and powerful effects, Gush Mintz Auto produces large yields of compact buds in just 9–10 weeks from germination. Gush Mintz Auto is extremely easy to grow, with plants reaching an average height of 70cm indoors and 120cm outdoors, making her ideal for discreet grows or limited spaces both indoors and outdoors. This strain is well suited to LST (Low Stress Training) and performs best in a ScrOG setup (a technique that optimizes light exposure to maximize yields). Punching aromas and deeply relaxing effects As she grows, Gush Mintz Auto's aroma intensifies, releasing sweet and minty notes. This refreshing flavor profile really comes into its own when smoked, offering an inviting combination of minty freshness and sweetness. The effects are deeply relaxing, enveloping the body in a pleasant well-being without being too sedative. Gush Mintz Auto is perfect for those seeking creative inspiration, making writing, painting or music-making sessions smoother and more inspiring. At Zamnesia you can find the whole world of growing and much more. Take a tour around the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. The new strains are amazing and the old ones are no exception... p.s. for now zero Hermaphrodites, growers, can you say the same? --- // www.zamnesia.com

Day 45 - Found the GC's main branch broken this morning. My error was tying it down too much. Never had plants so big so I'm still learning the best way to LST them in order to fit them in my closet. Takin the broke with philosophy: I never topped a plant, so I'm curious to see how she will develop from now and how much she will yield. Keep growing and learning every day 🙏🏼💪🏼🌱 Day 48 - Ladies are stretching much more every day, going to be two big girls 😋😋😋

The week went really well and we are starting strong into week 3. The King's Juice Auto #1 is giving me some worries because she's a little bit small. Also, I saw an aphid on her. Never underestimate green light spectrum guys! Speaking of light... I raised the light intensity up to 30% (80W) and will keep doing it like this until I end up with a DLI of 40-45. With 19 hours of light that would be roughly 60-65% of light output. Interesting. From the side view, I think #2 is my favorite but overall it's still #3. Still unsure what kind of training I should do or if at all. Alright, I trained them and tried some different strategies. I topped #3 because she was by far the tallest one anyway, I "lollipopped" #1, so that she hopefully pushes more power into the upper part and I just tucked the fan leaves of #2 under the branches. At least as far as I could. #2 definitely has some lovely growing! She also has the first white hair coming out. Will try to get a photo of that later, hopefully with my new wifi microscope. Should be delivered tomorrow. Wasn't delivered but how she develops, I don't need the microscope. First set of white hairs is clearly visible! I'm exited to see how they continue to develop.

Full flowering. Mimosa and NL1 are getting frosty. The smell is awesome. The GSC for some reason is very small and very bushy... Maybe a weird pheno. Nonetheless all good.
