Well that wraps up the seed preservation run! It was a great learning experience as there were several major hurdles to get over the finish line, but nothing worthwhile comes easy. The seeds are available in my Etsy shop as long as I have stock. Thanks for the support from all of you!

girls smell sweet and are stacking like right on top of one another. I had to splay her out and thin some leaves to ensure good airflow. This is the Wedding cake XL so I am starting to see what the buds are going to looks like on this one. Can't get over the fresh sweet smell.

Mar 31 I think things are going very well, one plant has rusty spots, pretty sure its calcium deficiency, will be upping across the board. Got the runoff ppm to a good spot, will be going back to 800ppm feeds by week 8, 750ppm this week. I want more stable genetics next time, I am way to new to be dealing with basically 3 different strains, that's what it feels like, and I have very little time as it is. Thinking of upping PPFD some more, i think the droop of the one plant was just adapting to watering till runoff, I want to see some fattening AND RIGHT NOW.

Only been around 4-5 days since planting and so far so good. Drinking plenty of water so expecting a big growth spurt. Can’t wait to see how they turn out.

So I think this was the 7th week or so but I flipped to flower with a 48 hour dark period around day 53ish. I opened the tent to neon budsites!

Both seedlings in peat tablets were put in an own fabric pot (15l each) on 20 Sept 2023. The soil was mixed with Top Crop Micro Vita powder (5g to15l) and put in each pot onto the layer of expanded clay balls. One leave of one of two plants was damaged, thanks to my dog. The grow-tent is IKEA tent, it is open. The temperature is a bit high, so I'm going to add a fan to make it cooler. Also reflecting coverage inside is planned.

Hello. This is the end of week 2 and the beginning of week 3 of flowering. I'll get in here this week and do my last trim up. Focusing on, sucker branch removal and removing fanleaves that don't' get light on the bottom and that are blocking the light from top from getting into the middle buds and fattening them up. Remember... the more light a bud site gets the bigger the buds that form there, will become. Getting some sticky resin on my fingers with the stem rub test. That's the last page of Weirdo #12. Hope you enjoyed it. I'll find something else, to fill the spot, till harvest, for your enjoyment. OK. Be Cool. Chuck.

Everything is dialed in :) still 650 PPFD and 28 cm plant to light. The vegetativ growth is going strong. Kept the LST tight and tried to form a good conopy. A lot of the floor space is covered.

Diese Woche hat der Stretch endlich geendet und ich musste die Lampe abhängen und oben auf das Gestänge legen weil ich sonst keinen Platz mehr hatte. Die maincolas mussten aus diesem Grund leider auch zwischen die Lampe trainiert werden. Den ec Wert hatte ich die Woche ein wenig nach unten reguliert weil ich merkte das der ec im Tank stieg mittlerweile hat die Pflanze sich durch das Rohr in den nächsten Topf gewurzelt 4 Wochen vegi waren wohl deutlich zu lang. Es gab ca jeden 3 tag ein addback mit frischer Nährlösung getauscht wurde das Wasser diese Woche nicht.

Heyókȟa I desire to study nature, and to know better the mind of God, the creator, Holy art thou, O Father. 12x12=144, A dodecahedron is a polyhedron with 12 faces, and in coordination chemistry, it refers to a geometry where ligands surround a central metal atom (in this case, Magnesium) in a specific, 8-coordinate arrangement. Dodecahedrane is a hydrocarbon, meaning it's composed solely of carbon and hydrogen atoms. The carbon atoms are arranged at the corners of a dodecahedron, a 3D shape with 12 pentagonal faces. The water molecules in the dodecahedron form hydrogen bonds that are individually slightly weaker than in either the dimer or the tetramer. However, because three-quarters of the O -H groups in the dodecahedron form hydrogen bonds, it has a more negative energy per molecule than has either the dimer or the tetramer. Magnesium (Mg2+) is the essential, central metal ion in the chlorophyll molecule, crucial for photosynthesis by enabling light absorption and energy transfer. It is chelated by four nitrogen atoms within the porphyrin (or chlorin) ring structure. Chlorophyll appears green because it reflects light in the green region of the visible spectrum, specifically between 490 and 570 nm. The main resonance electronic frequency of a neutral Magnesium (Mg) atom corresponds to the transition from the ground state to the first excited state. Resonance Line Wavelength of Mg2+: 285.1nm (UVB light). The central atom of the chlorophyll molecule is Magnesium (Mg2+), which is coordinated within a porphyrin ring. The electronic "resonance frequency" of this central atom—meaning the frequency at which its electrons absorb energy—is primarily driven by the electronic transitions (ETR) of the surrounding conjugated chlorin ring structure, rather than a discrete atomic transition of the Magnesium atom itself. The resonant electronic frequencies of the chlorophyll porphyrin (technically, a chlorin) ring are determined by the energy required to promote π-electrons within its conjugated system, primarily appearing in the blue and red regions of the visible spectrum. In standard physics, Chloryphyll b has peak absorption at 460nm (Blue). If we take the peak wavelength 460nm and a UV-B, UVR8 peak absorption wavelength 285nm Tryptophan-285 (W285) Sensing protein. 460/285=1.618 Φ, "natural harmony" and the "structure of light". The cryptochrome photoreceptor (CRY) is a UV-A/blue light receptor that shares this dual sensitivity with several other biological structures and functions, including significant sequence similarity and a common evolutionary ancestor with DNA photolyase enzymes. These are light-activated enzymes that use blue/UV-A light to repair DNA damage caused by UV-B radiation in plants. Dodecahedrane (C20H20) is a hydrocarbon with a cage-like structure where carbon atoms form 12 pentagonal faces (a regular dodecahedron). It is highly symmetric (icosahedral), contains no delocalized electrons (no aromaticity), and has minimal angle strain, but significant torsional strain. Water Dodecahedron (H2O) forms hydrogen-bonded cages. While individual hydrogen bonds in this structure are weaker than in the linear dimer or tetramer, it has a more negative total energy per molecule. This is because three-quarters (75%) of the groups are involved in hydrogen bonding, creating a very stable, closed-shell configuration. a 3D carbon hydrocarbon (C20H20) to stable water clusters in hydrate, while the Magnesium ion acts as the central activator within a conjugated ring in biological systems, with its electronic absorption dominated by the ring, not the atom itself. Effective quantum efficiency of photosystem II, often denoted as ΦPSII In horticultural lighting, adding 730 nm (far-red) LEDs alongside standard red/blue lights has been shown to increase canopy photosynthesis by 20–30% in several crops by acting synergistically with shorter wavelengths. However, the limitation is that excessive, pure IR/Far-red light (without accompanying red light) can trigger the "shade avoidance response," causing plants to grow tall, weak, and spindly rather than robust. Knowing is half the battle however, engineering or utilizing infrared light (specifically the 700-750 nm far-red range) is a viable method to boost photosynthetic efficiency. It acts as a bridge to allow PSII to utilize a broader spectrum of light, breaking the traditional 700 nm barrier. Extend, then multiply. UVR8-mediated signaling (often in conjunction with CRY proteins) triggers protective mechanisms that maintain the stability of the photosynthetic apparatus (including LHCII and reaction center proteins), thus ensuring that the efficiency of Photosystem II remains higher in UV-B-exposed plants compared to plants lacking this receptor. ΦPSII indictates the rate of electron transfer from water to plastoquinone, which drives the production of ATP and NADPH. There is a close link between ΦPSII and the true rate of CO2 fixation (Φ*co2), particularly in C4 plants. Effective quantum efficiency of photosystem II, often denoted as ΦPSII, represents the proportion of light absorbed by Photosystem II (ΦPSII) that is actually used in photosynthetic electron transport. It is a key indicator of how efficiently a plant is using light for photosynthesis, as opposed to losing it as heat or fluorescence. ΦPSII (effective quantum yield of photosystem II) functions primarily as a "multiplier" (a coefficient of efficiency) rather than an additive factor when estimating the overall photosynthetic electron transport rate (ETR). Multipliers are considered far more beneficial than additions because they generate exponential growth, leverage existing resources to their full potential, and create sustainable, self-multiplying capacity, rather than just incremental, linear increases. Humans, and most other mammals, rely on other mechanisms, such as nucleotide excision repair, to manage and repair UV-induced DNA damage. As such, humans do not have the direct, light-driven repair mechanism that photolyase offers in plants.

Frosty as heck but small buds, I might run it again with no lst and see if it gives bigger buds. Easy trimmer.

Alright, the time is here, I’ve started the harvest but I don’t want to press the harvest button until I have all my info correct, but I’ll show some photos from my baby, we started a slow 6.0 flush about 2 weeks ago and finishing flush about 4 days ago. She was already fading but I had some problems since I fed her without thinking after having some drinks witch is obviously a very rookie move. But as I’m still learning it’s just another oof under the bridge, she was fading and I got some nice looking tricombs and I’m happy with the smell and size for her life cycle, I’m aiming for a slow dry and cure but my space is limited in my appointment and grow room so I have a drying tent set up but conditions could be hard to handle since the season change. Cheers. (And yes I didn’t wanna flush my auto but I figured it was the safest route.)

Beginning of week 8 and seems like a long way to go. Most of the hairs still white. Hopefully the buds will fill in more! As right now I’m planning to take it 10+ weeks. This week I will lower the CO2 slowly 50 PPM every day until I will reach 800PPM. Also I will lower the light intensity by 2% every day. This week I lowered the day temp to 79 degrees and next week I’m playing to lower it every further to 76 degrees Fahrenheit. Water temp is at 68 degrees and probably from week 9 I will lower it to 66. Beginning of week 8 TDS is at 550PPM. I sent adding the Late bloom enhancer from Current Culture! End of week 8 : lowered the TDS to 470ppm , she seems that it not eating so much nutrients anymore. She still drinking 3 gallons of water every single day.

Die Pflanze hatte etwas Hitze Stress und Wassermangel aber wird sich denke ich gut erholen. Sonst die Buds sehen sehr gut aus und werden immer größer und kompakter bzw. schließen sich gut zusammen. Heute ca. beginnt die 6 Blüten Woche.

Our Zamnesia Purple Urkle are on fire. We have a larger one that was purposely placed before the other two small ones to use different techniques. The larger one will be topped with at least 16 buds and the small ones will be left to grow straight and for this reason I vegetated them less so they don't get too tall. We gave Power Roots 1 Ml/l , Pure Zym 1 ml/l , Sugar Royal 1 ml/l , Alga Grow 3 ml/l - Plagron nutrients are available at Zamnesia in convenient pack formats for all growing styles. I used this one with a simple search you can find the other products.

2 weeks into flower and you'd think it was more like week 4. I can already tell this is going to be a great yeild and great way to finish the year. So resilient. Despite high nutrient levels shes not showing any burn and stacking on the the buds. I've handpicked a few central leaves from around the more dense areas. The shorter more developed plant of the pair already smells phenomenal. Like rotten mango and orange zest. Already very sticky too. one thing I am suprised about is the lack of stretch. I really expected them to get much taller but it seems they are solely focused on flower production. That is something I will bare in mind on my next run. Check back for mid week updates.

I'm kinda late on the update, week 11 finished on sunday 4, now is feb 9th. Last time i gave them nutrients was on sunday jan 28th and i'm flushing them since that date. My intention was to take them down this sunday (11) but I will not be at home that day, maybe I'll cut them on monday 12th. Maybe on monday i will add week 12 and then when the drying is done I'll update the harvest. So far it seems like taller plant needs more time, as far as you guys have told me, seems like smaller is ready, but because of time I think I will cut them together. Also my intention es to create a video to participate on 2F4B contest, i forgot to record the harvesting of LSD25 so this strain is my chance.😀
