🌱 Week 7 From Seed | 12/12 From Germination Transition Phase — Early Flower (Week 1) 📌 Quick Context (For New Readers) These plants have been grown 12/12 from seed from day one. Because of this light schedule, development timelines do not match traditional veg/flower calendars. Although we are technically at Week 7 from seed, the plants are now entering what we consider Early Flower (Week 1). Pre-flower signs are present but still subtle, which is completely normal for this method, especially with training involved. Think of this as: Week 7 from seed ≈ Week 5 in overall physiological development ⸻ 🌿 Overall Plant Status All plants are healthy, vigorous, and responding extremely well to training. • Strong lateral growth • Very bushy structure • Tight internodes • No major deficiencies or stress responses The genetics are clearly expressing well under this method and environment. ⸻ 🧠 Training Update & Learning Moment This week involved low-stress training using plastic clamps and this was my first time. • Most plants responded beautifully • However, one branch was left clamped slightly too long, resulting in a partial break Recovery Action • White tape was applied immediately • The branch is stable • Early pre-flower signs are still visible on that plant 👉 Based on experience and current visuals, full recovery is expected. For comparison: • Another plant is trained using metal clamps, shown in the last photo • This plant is more delayed and not yet showing flower signs This contrast clearly shows how training intensity and timing can influence flowering onset under 12/12 from seed. ⸻ 🌡️ Room Conditions Despite very cold temperatures outside, the room has been stabilized well: • Temperature: 27.5°C • Relative Humidity: 65.4% • CO₂: ~909 ppm Humidity is slightly higher than ideal for flower, but plants are thriving and showing no negative responses. ⸻ 💧 Root Zone & Nutrition Adjustments were made this week to prepare the plants for flowering demand. • EC: Increased to 2.4 • Water Temperature: ~21°C (70°F) • pH: Raised to 6.5 🔬 Why the pH Change? This was a deliberate, science-based decision, not guesswork. As plants transition into flower, a slightly higher pH: • Improves availability of Calcium, Magnesium, and Phosphorus • Supports early flower initiation • Helps the plant shift metabolic focus From here: • pH will be cycled between 6.0 → 6.5 • Always kept above 6.0 • Adjusted based on plant feedback Until now, pH ranged around 5.8–6.0, which favored vegetative uptake. This marks the nutritional transition into flower physiology. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Update • PPFD Range: ~600–800 µmol/m²/s • Taller plants receive closer to 800–850 • Smaller plants around 600–700 • Top Lights: 100% • Under-Canopy Lighting: ~40–45% and increasing gradually The goal is to let plants adapt to photons coming from all directions, promoting: • Stronger lower growth • Better canopy balance • Reduced larf later in flower ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Next 1–2 weeks: • Clear flower initiation on most plants • Stretch phase beginning • Increased nutrient demand • Continued canopy management (tucking & bending only) What NOT to expect yet: • No heavy defoliation • No aggressive stress training • No rushing the transition The harder training plant will be given more time — no forcing. ⸻ 🙏 Final Words Thanks to everyone following along — newcomers, supporters, critics, and sponsors alike. This run is about learning, transparency, and showing what 12/12 from seed really looks like when done patiently and intentionally. More updates soon 🌱 As always — observations welcome.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. 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.

I'm very happy with how these came out. They finished right in the breeders estimated flowering time and they smell amazing. The front plant has more of a really strong grape Jolly Rancher smell to it and the back one smells just like Fruity Pebbles cereal. Update 6/20: Just finished trimming the plants and they are now going into a curing bucket. Total dry weight is 211g and the bud smells incredible!

This week we can see finally a change, she starts to be more shaped, her buds are getting fatter, more thricomes are coming out and her smell is changing from earthy to diesel. Most of her pistils are turning orange, but I hope she will gain more weight and density in the next few weeks. Most of fan leaves are turning yellow quickly and I don’t know if it’s normal or caused by a lock or lack of nitrogen since i gave her less biogrow during last feeding.

🌿Week 4: Defoliation & SCROG Setup Week 4 was all about structure and airflow. The canopy was getting bushy fast, with a ton of inner growth, so we went in for a solid defoliation session across the board. Lower fans, overlapping leaves, and shaded internodes were cleaned up to let light penetrate deeper into the canopy and reduce potential humidity traps. Right after that, we finally dropped the SCROG net, stretched out gently across the canopy to guide the branches horizontally and prep for flower stacking. Some of these phenos are already reaching for the sky, so the timing felt just right. Captured a full-time-lapse clip of the defoliation + netting process. It’s super satisfying watching the chaos turn into clean lines. Nature meets intention. Feed Bloom since 20/6 22/6 Defoliation 🌱 Plant Response: After defol, they bounced back fast. Tops are perky, leaves are praying, and stretch is continuing in a controlled way. The structure’s more open now — better airflow, better light distribution, better everything.

intercalaré agua-nutrientes la próxima semana pero con un riego menor, debido a que percibo que la planta ya no está tomando tanta agua. La última semana (espero que sea la semana 15) no aplicaré nutrientes y luego la planta tendrá de 3 a 4 días sin riego para proceder cortar y secar.

theres a total of 8 branches all same length exept the 2 in the middle. 10weeks from seed here This is by far the best strain i ever grown. Not just because of the legendary Og Kush x Bluberry x Gorilla Glue #4 cross. The smell, the leaves, the branches, and the space between every node and how big everything is. This is just insane the smell is legendary. This strain deserves so much more awards

Our Zookies Automatic are very cute. Remember that we are growing 1 Plant worked with the techniques and one left to grow without cutting techniques to preserve its speed. In this diary we find the plant that is growing free and beautiful with just a little cleaning. We are at the time of going into flowering for a couple of days we have switched to bloom to avoid the yellow tips but for the most abundant in this week in which we have stretched we have given the grow again. The comparison is the salt of the experience so the plant of the other diary will be worked very differently go and see it to compare them. 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 We sprayed Vita Race Foliare 3 ml/l. 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 Is a top strain of the last few years very high level of thc ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11174-zamnesia-seeds-zookies-auto.html Brief description of Zamnesia // The result of the cross between Animal Cookies, GG#4 and ruderalis, this compact variety produces top quality buds, maintaining all the charm of a modern US hybrid. Thanks to the hard work of the Zamnesia genetics team, Zookies Automatic is easy to grow, fast flowering and exceptionally vigorous. Regardless of whether you grow indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse, if you are looking for a stable autoflowering strain that is quick to harvest, Zookies Automatic is definitely the one for you. Like all Zamnesia autoflowers, Zookies Auto promises rapid harvests of top-quality bud with minimal effort. And she delivers on that promise. After germination, Zookies Automatic plants grow vigorously for around 3–4 weeks. At the end of the pre-flowering phase, plants typically reach a height of between 90–110cm, depending on the size of the pot. You can find the whole world of growing on Zamnesia and more, just check out the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colours. The new strains are fantastic and the old ones are no exception... p.s. no hermaphrodites so far, can you growers say the same?

Day 83: After being in the dark for like 4-7 days, they where ready to harvest. All plants getting cut by the machine, big buds are cut by hand. I never weight wet buds because that doesnt make any sence. I will update soon on how much it is dry weight. My friend helped me with the harvest since it takes many hours of work. I have many buds that are as big or bigger as my hand. Quallity so far looks promising even thought there are shitty buds as well, but thats normal and oke. They have been cut freshly so I won't lose much weight when cutting. This will happen when cutting dry buds. The remaining small leafs on the wet buds will dry in with the buds and will be barely visible. Thanks @Fastbuds for sponsering the seeds. It was a really hard thought to make a diary about it while having more then 100 other strain plants. So both diaries look almost the same now. Ill hope you guys liked my grow and that we can go bigger in the future, so that i can make a , single strain,better and full diary about it. More info soon.
