What a great week it’s been!today is day 65 from seed!! One of the Forbiddin Runtz got it’s last feeding on Friday and will get flushed for 2 weeks and will be ready for dry and cure! The rest will still remain getting same dose of nutes the rest of this week and most likely into the next! This batch felt like it went so quick ! Hope you all enjoy an watch out for next week !

Plants are getting really top heavy, added bamboo support, I aim to cut in a couple weeks or so.

Another week of decent weather including the hottest day on record for July in the U.K. It was not last as we have had several shitty showery days but this will hopefully clear to the glorious blue skies we have been having. No problems to report this week but I'm sure the fecking slugs will show there slimy heads at some point so I'll be on guard for the buggers. 😂

Week 7 Although the Gelato is the smallest of the bunch it's definitely the fastest flowering. Also I'm trying out a little experiment if the results are positive I might share more about it in the future..

Really up with the bio bozz fees was showing signs off under feeding there hungry girls ans just keep guzzling away I'm.so happy how these f1 are turning out there bigger and better than I ever expected tbh so over the

How RQS Compares to Your Standouts Brothers Grimm (your "otherworldly" stars: Montel Iced Tea, Body Count, Bubbles Blueberry F4, Ricky’s Hash Plant, Black Tangi Tea) These are landrace-influenced, heirloom-style genetics with exceptional resin, unique flavors, and structure. They outperform RQS in quality, potency, and "wow" factor in your tents. RQS tends to be more commercial/hybridized for ease and yield, while Brothers Grimm prioritizes distinctive traits and consistency in experienced hands. Humboldt Seed Company autos (your top autos for resin, especially OG Triploid) Humboldt focuses on West Coast legacy genetics with heavy resin production. Clearly superior to RQS autos in trichome density and overall quality. RQS autos are faster and easier for beginners but often lack the resin "frost" and depth you get from Humboldt. Fast Buds (fast, flavorful, reliable autos — you like them a lot) Excellent speed and flavor profiles. You noted they're in a "different class" — fair point. Fast Buds emphasizes quick cycles and modern hybrids with nice terps, while RQS autos can feel more generic or require more coaxing. Quick Thoughts on Your Observations Brothers Grimm (Montel Iced Tea, Bubbles Blueberry F4, etc.): These are clearly the stars in your current setup. The strong smell, unique leaf morphology, and overall vigor in small pots show they're expressing well under your conditions. They reward careful growing with quality that feels special — resin, flavor complexity, and effects that fit your low-dose, functional style better than most commercial lines. Your homemade cross (Gelato 44 × Bubbles Blueberry F4 pollen = "Blueberry Knockout"): Nice work on your first intentional cross-pollination! Getting viable seeds and decent plants from a garage-level cross is a real win. It’s not "pretend breeding" — it’s exactly how many great lines started. The fact that it turned out "pretty nice" is encouraging. However, as you noted, combining a Royal Queen Seeds Gelato 44 (solid but commercial) with Brothers Grimm Bubbles Blueberry F4 (higher-quality, more unique genetics) creates a hybrid that can show the best of both, but also some inconsistency. If the RQS side brings easier growth but less depth, while the Brothers Grimm side brings the special traits, the offspring can be hit-or-miss depending on which phenos you kept. RQS Gelato 44 / Mike Tyson 2.0 vs. Brothers Grimm: Your experience matches what many growers report. RQS lines are generally more "user-friendly" and higher-yielding for beginners or volume grows, but they often lack the resin density, terpene complexity, and unique expressions you get from Brothers Grimm. The Tyson 2.0 collaboration added hype, but in your tents it landed at 7/10 while Brothers Grimm hit "otherworldly." That gap in quality is why you're leaning toward sticking with the professional, boutique genetics going forward. 3/30 11:17PM Gelato 44 & Punch Pie were nice right off the tree the little buds put me right to sleep last night!! The Autos are 7-10 but the Photos are 8/10

this is weeks 5 and 6.I topped them and trained the branches out to the side. Plus I broke one... I tried to save it but it broke again later

Buds are coming along nicely, they started off with a not so appealing smell but eventually started to smell very sweet. Increased dosage for increased blooming and ripening. Missed update for day 49 but vids from previous day makes up for it. Side note, I created a homemade Co2 bag with ingredients that is easily available and affordable. I don't think I let is have an effect on my buds but it sure did smell awful. After the 5th day, I got rid of it.

LSD — Week 13 From Seed | 12/12 From Seed, No Veg Week 13 from seed, and this room is fully alive. What started as a true 12/12 from seed run—no veg, no transplant games, no extended shaping, just straight into flower from the beginning—has now matured into exactly what this style is meant to show: natural structure, honest expression, and plants allowed to speak for themselves. From day one, these LSD were asked to do one thing only: grow with intent. No long vegetative period. No oversized training sessions. No forced bush structure. No attempt to make them become something they were never meant to be. Just seed, root, stretch, stack, mature. And that is exactly why this room looks the way it does now. ⸻ Why They Look Like This One of the most beautiful things about 12/12 from seed is that it reveals plant character early and honestly. Without a long vegetative period, these plants never had the time—or the pressure—to build wide, heavily manipulated frameworks. Instead, they followed a more natural vertical rhythm: apical dominance stayed intact, main tops remained leading, and side branching developed in support rather than competition. That is why this room carries that classic spear-shaped structure: strong central leaders, supporting side branches, elegant vertical stacking, and that clean “natural Christmas tree” silhouette from top to bottom. For many growers, this shape reads visually “sativa.” Not because the cultivar suddenly became sativa-dominant, but because the growth pattern expresses more like one under this method: taller posture, longer frame, more pronounced central cola, cleaner lateral support, and less squat horizontal bulk. Genetically, that is not the full story. Structurally, though? That is exactly what they are showing. And they are showing it beautifully. ⸻ The Room Is Alive At this stage, the room has changed. This is no longer a room pushing for biomass. This is no longer a room chasing stretch. This is no longer a room trying to build flowers. This is now a room finishing them. And there is a difference. Everything still breathes. Everything still drinks. Everything still moves. But the energy has shifted. The room feels quieter now. Heavier. More deliberate. The metabolism has slowed, but it has not stopped. The plants are still active, still processing, still ripening, still making decisions. They are simply no longer spending energy on building mass the way they were before. Now the focus is density. Oil. Maturation. Expression. Completion. And you can see it everywhere. In the fading leaves. In the shifting greens. In the swelling calyx. In the resin weight. In the smell. In the silence. This room is not slowing down. It is finishing. ⸻ Why We Are No Longer Feeding Nutrients At this stage, we are no longer feeding for growth. The heavy work is done. The plant has already built the frame. It has already stacked the flowers. It has already done the bulk of nutrient-driven expansion. Now the goal is not to keep pushing. Now the goal is to let the plant finish clean. That is why we have moved away from active nutrient feeding and into a much softer finish: water, balance, and enzymes. Not because the plant needs nothing. Because the plant needs less. Late flower is not the moment to keep forcing nitrogen, forcing bulk, or trying to squeeze one more week of artificial push into a plant that is already trying to mature. At this point, more food often does not mean more flower. It usually means more delay. So now we reduce input, reduce excess, reduce waste, and let the plant focus on what matters most: ripening what it already built. ⸻ Why Enzymes Still Matter This late, enzymes are not here to “feed the plant.” They are here to support the system around it. That matters. Enzymes help break down dead root material, leftover organic residue, and unused matter in the medium into simpler compounds the microbial life can continue processing. That keeps the rhizosphere cleaner. More stable. More oxygenated. Less stagnant. In simple terms: enzymes help the root zone age gracefully. And in late flower, that matters more than force-feeding ever will. Especially in a run like this, where the medium is still alive, still active, and still worth preserving after harvest. Because the goal is not just to finish the plant well. The goal is to finish the soil well too. What remains after harvest still matters. That living medium still has value. That biology still has work to do. That soil still has another life ahead of it. So we are not just finishing flowers. We are finishing the cycle properly. ⸻ Trichomes, Calyx, and What Maturity Actually Looks Like This is the stage where people often mistake “more pistils” for “more time” or “fading leaves” for “finished.” Neither one tells the full story on its own. Late flower maturity is not judged by one signal. It is judged by the conversation between all of them. And right now, that conversation is getting very interesting. The calyx are swelling. The flowers are tightening. The resin heads are becoming heavier. The pistils are changing, receding, darkening, and curling back. The leaves are beginning to fade with purpose. That does not mean they are done. It means they are transitioning. This is the window where the plant stops looking like it is building flowers and starts looking like it is sealing them. That is a very different phase. Calyx swelling means the flower is maturing inward. Pistil change means reproductive signaling is slowing. Trichome development means chemistry is shifting. Fade means mobile reserves are being reallocated. None of these alone call harvest. Together, they begin the conversation. And that conversation is clearly underway now. ⸻ PPFD, Light, and the Final Adjustment This late, the job of light changes too. Earlier, high PPFD was there to drive growth, stacking, and metabolic demand. Now that demand is lower. So light intensity comes down with it. Not dramatically. Not suddenly. Just intelligently. As plants approach the end, reducing PPFD helps lower unnecessary stress, reduce excess transpiration, and let the plant focus on ripening instead of defending itself from intensity it no longer needs. Late flower is not about maximum push. It is about controlled finish. And just like nutrients, light now becomes less about force and more about guidance. ⸻ What to Expect Next From here, do not expect explosive growth. That part is over. Do not expect dramatic new stacking. Do not expect sudden weight jumps. Do not expect fresh white explosions everywhere. What to expect now is subtler. Denser flowers. Heavier resin. Slower drinking. More fade. More aroma. Less urgency. More definition. The next stage is not louder. It is deeper. This is where the plant sharpens. This is where the room gets quieter. This is where harvest starts introducing itself before it arrives. Whether this is the final update before chop or simply the one that stands right beside it, one thing is certain: we are close now. And they know it. ⸻ Final Thoughts This room has been a pleasure to walk through. To the team at Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for helping feed the cycle. To GrowDiaries for the platform. To the old heads who have been here since day one. To the new eyes just arriving. To the growers, the learners, the lovers, the skeptics, the silent ones watching, the ones who support loudly, and the ones who just happened to land here by accident— thank you. For the time. For the energy. For the presence. To everyone watching this room evolve in real time: thank you for walking it with us.

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.

Getting pollinated sucks

Day 92. In video you can see how brown is Gorilla Max pistils and how sad looking is pale Bunny Gorilla, both girls are drinking fast, so maybe they will finish with decent result, that was two strongest plants, sad ... All other girls are ok, Control garden is huge, side colas , which gets more light caught up tops standing in dark, funny to observe. So many plants bring humidity up, will do defoliation in 4 days on my new days off. Silica and CalMag out. Day 94. Girls are okish, Bunny Gorilla refused to drink pure water, pot was still heavy, i will check in the morning, but she went into some stress or lockdown a bit, but maybe its just my paranoia , morning weighting will show. Defoliation is a must, but i know now, that this time its overcrowded, cant access pots for lifting, max 10 plants and i think for 2 month veging those airpots are too small, i think they have even only like 15 liters of actual soil in them despite 20 liters on price tag, next round i am back to fabric pots , have new 30 liters waiting in dark room for theirs turn. Day 94 Evening. Morning for me, but girls where going to sleep, some pots already ultra light, same mistake in one grow ??? Never !!! ;)))))) All girls got heavy feed, managed to mix up 1000 ppm from 4 components only, huge amounts involved, very hard without BioGrow, think it was too early for sure to take N out. With Bunny was real headache, but at the end she was light as most others... Overthinking not good, better to flow with them. Honestly think such version of grow would be better with single plant or higher electric capacity ... Don't want to move place, so next grow again change of tactics..... ;))))) Toping on 5 nod with mini LST and veg max 5 weeks. Loads of bottom buds are smaller than seed from which they grow. Think to lolitop all that crap. Two days till next watering to make decision ... Day 95. Girls are happier than ever, they needed more food, thats all. Now i think i will do feed/feed/water regime till end of week 8, then heavy flush, its summer at mines and i can do it properly outside. Girls bulk up every day. Thinking to lift Gorillas tonight and all lights as well, Incredible Bulks and Strawberry Cough doing magic in shadow , what will they do with a bit of more light then ??? ;) Day 96. Socialism in my garden ;)))) Cookies are crap, Gorillas are The Joy, all Control Garden makes me wanna sing as well... No more defoliation or lolitoping, they are fattening up and i want to see final weight and nice colours .... Heavy feed at the end of this day or next morning . Happy growing !

What good everyone, these ladies are progressing beautifully. Thinking another week or two on these and they'll be pretty much ready to harvest. All in all Happy Growing

Week 13 : This wraps up the last week of flush for the biotabs, they got 2.5 ml/L of humic acid each feed 3x 4 pints this week. These have a real funky smell to them, cant really put my finger on it, kinda plant musty, really strong smell, maybe skunky or something, main thing is they're getting the chop soon ! Clipped a fair few leaves but the idea is a dry trim and hanging the plants whole for 10-12 days of slow drying before the cure. Man i cant wait to wrap this grow up ! These kinda grew crowded, i can tell because the biotabs and mrB's have a few branches that are anemic, small, useless, so they're all gonna go into the bubble hash, let's see if i can extract anything from these beauties ! wish me luck 🚀

Week 9 and what can I say about this beauty... The buds on this girl just keeps getting fatter and fatter.! I think I'm hooked on using Live Soil and just water.! Absolutely no deficiencies whatsoever lol I'm giving only a half gallon of water per day and that's it.! The Alaskan Purple Auto is smelling so good with a fruity citrusy smell.! I'm looking forward to this harvest and the outcome... No pics this time but I thought a short video of this girl would do.! Enjoy...))

WEEK 7/4F // D43/22F - D49/28F Dafür das Lady#2 mit der Blüte ein paar Tage hinterher ist, ist sie mittlerweile aber größer als Lady#1 und ist definitiv stabiler was die Seitentriebe angeht. Beide Ladys werden ordentlich voll sein. Jeweils die unteren vier Seitentriebe wurden mit Bindedraht an der Stange in der Mitte befestigt das die Triebe und dicker werdenden Buds bei starkem Wind etwas gestützt sind. Gegossen wurde an Tag 43/22F, an Tag44/23F, an Tag45/24F, an Tag48/27F und an Tag49/28F. An den Tagen gab es jeweils ca 1L-1.2L. Die Töpfe werden vor dem gießen leicht angehoben um zu abzuschätzen wie viel jede Lady benötigt. Temperatur Tag: 22-28°C Nacht: 13-19° Höhe #1 94cm #2 106cm
