Hello and welcome to this try and error growdiary.
Germination Day is the day i let her soak overnight, in water.
She shows her little head app. 4-5 days later, not entirely sure.
After i let her soak overnight i put her in a plug from biotabs. Wicked stuff!
Just ten days and her roots came through the fluffy medium.
I let some peat pellets soak in water, then let em dry. Crushed these and mixed it with a little growing soil.
Since them she grow in the container you can see on the picture.
A little bit lst is done one week earlier. Second lst two days earlier.
Water her every two days so far. Only Rainwater besides 1 very small dose of triacontanol on day 17.
From Day 4-5 she stand under 38W Custom Led spotlights, screwed into a piece of wood. It contains 1 20W 6500k; 2 4.5W 3000k 2 4.5W 4000k.
These are the spotlights you use for lighting the entrance of your homes. They work excellent in my experience. Especially in cold times.
Since the older leds produce more heat, its a bonus for me at this time.
From today, day 21. Remember. Day 0 is the day she gets soaked overnight. Day 1 into medium. Day 4-5 breakthrough.
She stands under another custom "board". 1 30W 6500k 2 20W 3000k. Some other spotlights.
Also used since the beginning is my good ol heatbed to give her warm feet. Old fashioned 25W bulb generates some warmth.
Oh yeah, and from Day 0 she stand into a mini greenhouse, which cover i removed day 14-16.
Sorry, but didnt make a notice this time.
But now to the interesting part!
I start with a light shedule i wanted to try for a long time.
Always noticed the plants looked kind of unhappy after more then 16h of light. Like they Want to sleep.
I will hold it short and give you the plan in detail. I will refer to day 4 as day 0, the breakthrough. So day 0 is day 1, on day 6 she has given 16 h of light every day, for seven days.
Day 0-6 16/8 Day 7-13 15.5/8.5 Day 14-20 15/9 Day 21-27 14.5/9.5 Day 28-34 14/10 Day 35-41 13.5/10.5 Day 42-48 13/11 Day 49-55 12.5/11.5 Day 56-62 12/12
Day 63-69 11.5/12.5 Day 70-76 11/13 Day 77-83 10.5/13.5 Day 84-90 10/14 Day 91-97 9.5/14.5 Day 98-104 9/15 Day 105-111 8.5/15.5 Day 112-118 8/16.
9 Weeks from the day of breakthrough till 12/12.
From this point you have 8 weeks from 12/12 to 8/16.
17 Weeks in total. 4 months, one week.
Lets Grow!
Hello and welcome or hello back to my grow report.
I started with a light shedule, i wanted to try for quite a time.
The "goal" of this is to see how it works.
Often we do something, without knowing why.
I think the fixation on 18/6-12/12 is one of this conventions.
Lets break it!
Light Shedule:
Day 0-6 16/8 Day 7-13 15.5/8.5 Day 14-20 15/9 Day 21-27 14.5/9.5 Day 28-34 14/10 Day 35-41 13.5/10.5 Day 42-48 13/11 Day 49-55 12.5/11.5 Day 56-62 12/12

She gets a second dose of triacontanol on day 27, yesterday.
Watering every other day. 60ml at the moment. Rainwater.
Repotting in 4-7 days to 0.5L-1L.
So far so good. She developed a very strong stem. Fast, vigorous growth.
Lst is working. I will bend her down this way a few more times.
She seems to like it, reacts well to it. After the last horizontal bind, she worked her head up again, in 2h. Visible progress after less then an h.
Update every Monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

14/10 at the moment.
Repottet her on day 24 from 0.25l to 1l.
45% Peat 50% Growing Soil 5% Perlite.
Lst takes place on day 7; day 19 and day 34.
Maybe i FIM her. We will see. Only four weeks of the Vegetative Phase are left till 12/12.
On day 52 she gets in the tent under my Baboboard Red, you may know from my other reports.
She gets watered every third day, with 80ml-100ml rainwater without additives.
Applied in 20ml steps over an hour with a pipette. Soon she gets some Equisetum arvense and Mykorrhiza.
My cat strikes again and chewed on her, but not much damage has been done.
Only had to remove one leaf. She also love these plants. :))
Wish you a happy new year!
Until then. Lets Grow!

13.5/10.5 at the moment.
I FIMed her two days ago, on day 40. Really excited about the outcome of this technique, since its my first time using it.
On day 35 she gets Mykorrhiza. On day 40 Equisetum arvense, just after the FIMing.
I placed some wooden sticks, to help with the arrangement of her branches. They grow slow, but steady and vigorous.
Watering every third day. 140ml-160ml at the moment. This Strain does not need or want much water or fertilizer.
She is happy with a little bit from everything. But loves attention. 😍
My Cat strikes again as you can see on the last picture. Just one small bite. Little vegan carnivora. 😁
See you next monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

13/11 at the moment.
The further development of the shoots after the FIMing 9 days ago, seems good as far as i can estimate, since its my first time using this technique.
In general the shoots grow slow, but steady and vigorous. The are almost on the same height, with a maximum of 7cm, measured from the soil.
She has already a nice cannabis scent. And gets watered every third day. 160ml at the moment.
A third small dose of triacontanol was applied on day 45.
I will repotting her the third and last time, coming thursday. From 1l to 10l.
Coming saturday i will transfer her to my homebox, under my BaboBoardRed(2021) from Bloomtech. Delicious led. Very satisfied with the results from it.
Afaik they unfortunately dont deliver to the states. :/
So far so good. Really like this strain. :)) Oh yeah, as you could see, my cat regularly snacks on her. Thats ok. Told her, she should leave some plant left. 😸
See you next monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

12.5/11.5 at the moment.
Repottet her last friday. Could have waited at least one more week. The 1l was not fully rooted. :/ 5% Peat 90% Soil 5% Perlite
I give her app. 1l Water after the transplantation. Will continue watering her coming thursday, with 250ml each third day.
Two days ago, i give her some skeletal support with the white web.
Just after i take these pictures, i transfered her to my homebox, under the BaboBoardRed. 130W at the moment.
My plan is to hold this wattage 14 days from today. Then i reduce it every seventh day. 130;120;110 etc..
I am really excited about her further development. :))
See you next monday.

12/12 at the moment. 130W. Since we have only two days after the switch to 12/12, i will refer to this week, as VEG9. Transition-Phase.
Important note about the lighting scheme: On the last day of 12.5/11.5, i shut of the lights at 18.00 instead of 20.00.
This was because its getting really cold, and i wanted the lights on at 06.00, instead of 08.00.
Fourth small dose of triacontanol was applied yesterday, on day 62. Equisetum arvense was applied on day 58.
Watering her with app. 1l every fifth day, at the moment.
It seems like we got some natural FIM/Top at one shoot. :))
And we got some hairs all over her already! Maybe my light scheme is the trigger for this early sign of pistils, shortly after the switch to 12/12.
Because she mentioned shortening of the daytime/extension of nighttime, since the beginning of her life. Pistils arent there, two days ago.
Finally Bloom-Time. Yuhe!
See you next monday.

Hey there! As you maybe mentioned already, the quality of the photos is different. The further away taken pictures are better, but i cant do clear close-up pictures now.
This is due to the end of my other tablet. Sadly, i cant afford some other at the moment. Thats life. :))
The close-up pictures of E.g. pistils are unbearable. So sadly, i cant show you the nearby view in detailed resolution.
I am glad, i can show you her progress anyways. Its truly enough to see her progress. For the science!
She does very well, bursts of life! The development of the pistils is really vigorous, steady and fast af. As well as her stretching, and general appearance. You can watch her growing.
Time will show, if this leads to a Scrog, or simply another sceletal support. Depends on her further stretching behaviour. And the structural integrity of her shoots.
A lot of the people who showing you a Scrog, just do a sceletal support. The difference can be seen in LBHs Scrog Tutorial on Growweedeasy.
If you are a novice, or a seasoned grower, this website is full of valuable information for you. And for me, after a lot of research, reading dozens of sites, it is the most reliable.
EDIT: Ok, i decided to Scrog(modified) her right now. Because i get the feeling, its right or never to start with it. A rule i gave myself: "IF i can TUCK - i NEVER CUT"
I tucked her shoots under the web, as far i could go, without breaking the same. Her shoots have a sturdy integrity, but are nonethless bendable.
Which should change soon, to a very sturdy, not so bendable kind of thing. Height before Scrog: 14cm Height after Scrog: 10cm
EDIT2: As her shoots get really sturdy in the last days, this does not lead to a Scrog. Just a sceletal support. 😺
Watering her with app. 1l every fifth day, at the moment. No further intoxication in the last week. In the coming days, i will apply some Mykorrhiza.
See you next monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

11/13 at the moment. 110W.
She does well! I am glad she can handle the cold temps at night so well. :))
Watering her with app. 1l every fifth day, at the moment. Mykorrhiza was applied last tuesday, on day 71. Yesterday, on day 76, a fifth dose of triacontanol.
I keep her as low as possible. More for fun, then out of necessity.
Cant tell you something about her scent, because im getting the cold, and cant smell anything.
One really funny note about the FIM.
The intentional FIM on her main-bud seems to do nothing, whereas the natural on one of her shoots does exactly the thing, i suspected from the intentional.^^
See you next monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

10.5/13.5 at the moment. 100W.
I already think now, this is my new way too g(r)o(w). Maybe starting from 18/6, which adds a few additional weeks into the VEG.
You cant see it at the pictures right now, but we got some blackening of the leaves. Starting at the tips, and the surrounding edges at the top.
I am sure it comes frome the cold nights. This is what starts the coloration afaik.
As i could slowly smell something again, after my cold, i can tell you she developed a nice light caramel-scent. Just as i grow her for the first time.
But her general appearance seems a bit different. We will see it.
Watering her with app. 1.5l every fifth day, at the moment. Equisetum arvense was applied on day 82, last saturday.
See you next monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

10/14 at the moment. 90W. I reduce the hours of light every saturday. Every following monday, i reduce the wattage.
Watering her with app. 1.5l every fifth day, at the moment. Today i applied the sixth dose of triacontanol. I only used about 1ml per l. The first two doses where about 0.5ml per l.
As you could see on the pictures, i prune the sugar-leaves, which cast a shadow on other flowers. I have made the observation that it leads to bigger buds.
The blackening of the leaves continues. As well as the general extension of biomass. I am confident she is ready to harvest 56 days after 12/12.
Contrary to my normal procedure of harvesting in steps, i will leave her alone, till she has reached at least 8 weeks of bloom.
To show you, how much harvest is possible under the given circumstances.
See you next Monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

9.5/14.5 at the moment. 80W. I reduce the hours of light every saturday. Every following monday, i reduce the wattage.
Watering her with app. 1.5l every sixth day, at the moment. Gonna reduce this to at least 1l now, because she is getting much less light.
And therefore could not process a whole lot of it. Dont want Xylem-Sap on her.
No further intoxication last week. I will apply only one more time equisetum arvense, then only rainwater until the finish.
The Calyxes are swelling. She looks close to ready to be honest. If i took a look on her parents, that makes sense. Northern Lights: 45Days-50Days / Black Domina: 50Days.
And i am sure with my light shedule, this is possible. :)) I will harvest her, if ~95% of the stigma are no longer white, and only few new ones grew.
Which should be around Day49-Day56 after 12/12.
Really upset about not beeing able to show you close-up pictures. She glitters like a champ.
Edit: I have a older tablet back now, which can do better close-up pictures, yuche! The quality of photos general increased for my feeling. Nice. 😍
She exudes a strong pine flavor, coupled with a chemical-bitter hint. If i touch her, i get a very citrous one, paired with a bit pepper, and this chemical-pine. Quite unique.
The blackening of her leaves proceed slowly. And it seems as we reached the end of her stretching phase, and go/are into late-bloom now.
See you next Monday.
Until then. Lets Grow!

9/15 at the moment. 70W. I reduce the hours of light every saturday. Every following monday, i reduce the wattage.
Oh yes, the pictures from the older tablet are definitly better! The best part is that we can now see the blackening of her leaves.
What I could only perceive with my eyes in this intensity, after seeing the photos. Before it was difficult, because the light from the LED distorted the color perception.
Edit: After observing and compare the pictures from FLO14-FLO15 i can see that, the blackening of her leaves proceed mostly in the last week!
I will watering her a last time coming thursday, and harvest her on day 56 after 12/12. Saturday next week. Equisetum arvense was applied on day 102, last friday.
We are in the harvest window for sure! As soon as i open the tent the whole room is filled with her terpene profile.
Dominant chemical-pine with hints of pepper and a distinctive citrous tone. If i had touched her, the citrous one gets stronger.
Along with some earthy tones, which i cant smell without touching her.
Day 44 after 12/12 and i could easily harvest her, wtf! More then 80% of the stigmas arent white anymore.
And the buds are very dense, hard in touch. Bracts swollen. Even without a microscope i can see, that most of the trichome are white.
Some leaves show downward pointing tips. I think this is due to a light nitrogen excess. This strain does not need much nutrients (or water) in general.
Used a recycled substrate with lower presence of nutrients, because i already noticed it the first time i was growing this strain.
Really excited about harvest time. Great work Pyramid! I love the combo of this stellar parents!
One last update next monday, before i harvest her.
Until then. Lets Grow!
Hey there!
I decided to harvest her today, on day 50 after 12/12.
As you could see, she is clearly in the harvest window. I dont think she would have gained much volume or potency in the next six days.
Harvest on day 56 after 12/12 was the previous plan. As i have the next two babies in que and really need my medicine, this was a necessary decision.
And in addition i personaly like the up-high from the early-window harvested buds.
130g wet. The last watering was on wednesday this week, four days ago. The substrate was very dry. So i am confident we are left with 58g-65g dry. 😸
The substrate was permeated with a fine root-network. They where fine but in the lower area from a above average thickness and very beautiful to look at. 💪
I switched to 6/18 last friday. The night from friday to saturday was the first night with 18h of darkness. So technically the Growdiary description is correct. 😇
I will add a general overview of this growdiary here soon, for those who are interested.
So far, thank you for watching this diary! Maybe i have inspired you to try different light shedules, then the usual 18/6-12/12.
Edit1: Notes on the lighting scheme which was used.
7x16h(38W)=112h
7x15.5h(38W)=108.5h
7x15h(70W)=105h
7x14.5h(70W)=101.5h
7x14h(70W)=98h
7x13.5h(70W)=94.5h
7x13h(70W)=91h
7x12.5h(70W)=87.5h
7x12h(130W)=84h
7x11.5h(120W)=80.5h
7x11h(110W)=77h
7x10.5h(100W)=73.5h
7x10h(90W)=70h
7x9.5h(80W)=66.5h
7x9h(70W)=63h
2x8h(70W)=16h
=1328.5h = 55.3Days of Light ON.
"Normal-Grow" :
7x18h=126h per week = 504h per month. = 1008h for 8weeks VEG
7x12=84h per week = 336 per month. = 588h for 7 weeks FLO
=1596h = 66.5Days of Light ON.
This is important to me, because i will start a second grow, in which i try to copy the environment to see the difference(s) to a 18/6-12/12 grow.
