🌿 Cosmic Noodles — Week 6 Flower (Week 10 from Seed) ✦ Context & Run Setup 12/12 from seed. Autoflower expression under controlled flowering conditions — a hybrid rhythm between speed and structure. What we’re seeing now is the result of early structure + stable environment + precise feeding. And also… one lesson plant that deserves respect. ⸻ ⚠️ The Overwater Plant — A Necessary Decision This week, we made a call. Not emotional — responsible. One plant, previously pushed through intentional overwatering conditions, did not recover. Root zone remained compromised, oxygen exchange was limited, and overall plant vitality continued declining. What we observed: • Persistent droop and lack of turgor recovery • Slowed or stalled bud development • Increased risk profile (humidity pockets, potential for rot/microbial issues) At this stage in flower, the plant wasn’t just underperforming — she was becoming a liability to the room. So the decision was made: ✂️ Harvest early, remove risk, protect the ecosystem. Yield was minimal — but that was never the point. This plant served as a living case study. 💡 Key takeaway for the community: Overwatering is not about “too much water” — it’s about lack of oxygen in the root zone. Once that balance is lost for too long, recovery becomes unlikely. Respect to her. She taught more than she produced. ⸻ 🌱 The Rest of the Garden — Absolute Explosion Now… the contrast. The remaining plants are doing the exact opposite. They are: • Vigorous • Structurally stacked • Visibly happy ✦ What we’re seeing: • Bud sites fully formed and stacking aggressively • Dense, symmetrical structure across the canopy • Leaves holding a deep, healthy green • Strong transpiration and daily drinking rhythm These girls are not just growing — they are driving energy exactly where it needs to go. ⸻ 💧 Water, Feeding & Plant Demand Current intake: • 1.6 – 1.8L per plant / 24h This tells us everything: • Root systems are active • Transpiration is strong • Environment is dialed ✦ Parameters: • Temperature: 26°C • RH: 60% • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 • CO₂: ~1000 ppm This combination is creating: → Efficient nutrient uptake → Strong metabolic activity → Continuous flower development They are eating, drinking, and converting. ⸻ 🌸 Bud Development — Where It Gets Beautiful At ~Week 6 flower: • Calyx stacking is now visibly dominant • Buds are transitioning from formation → mass accumulation • Structure is tightening, weight is coming in And the key detail: 👉 The plants are still pushing fresh growth, not fading early → This means the engine is still running strong You’ve built a system where: • Energy is available • Environment supports it • Genetics are expressing fully That’s why they look like this. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Size & Structure • Average height: ~1.2 meters • Even canopy with strong tops • Light penetration still effective This is the sweet spot: 👉 Big enough to produce 👉 Controlled enough to manage ⸻ 🔍 Why They’re Thriving (While One Didn’t) This is the real lesson of this week. The difference wasn’t genetics. It was the root environment. Healthy plants: • Oxygenated root zone • Stable wet/dry cycle • Consistent nutrient availability Overwatered plant: • Oxygen deprivation • Root stress → reduced uptake • Cascade effect into weak growth Everything above the soil is just a reflection of what happens below it. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Coming into the next phase: ✦ Expect: • Continued bud swelling • Increased density and weight • Possible early signs of fade (depending on feeding strategy) • Higher demand for stability (environment becomes critical now) ✦ Watch for: • Humidity control (as buds thicken) • Airflow through the canopy • Any signs of internal moisture pockets We are entering the “everything counts” phase. ⸻ 🤝 Closing Words To everyone watching this journey: • Day one supporters • Silent observers • Question askers • Even the doubters This is for all of you. To the community, to GD, to the sponsors, to the genetics — thank you for being part of this process. Because this isn’t just a grow. It’s: → Learning → Sharing → Improving together ⸻ And to the garden… One plant taught us a lesson. The others are showing us what happens when everything aligns. This is balance. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.

Day 22 Starting the week by cutting the big leaves. Day 25 light defoliation to allow light to reach the lower branches Day 28 pre flower

The long-awaited cycle of one of my favorite strains, which I sometimes grow again, is coming to an end. This interesting and unique terpene profile drives you crazy time after time; it's quite a powerful plant that can quickly calm and soothe you. Incredibly beautiful in the final stages of flowering, it changes color to a truly beautiful hue, and the leaves become wildly colorful. Be prepared for your carbon filter to be unable to contain its scent; it's very strong and fragrant. Stone flowers await us, and we'll see.

*Increased PPM from 800 to 850 *Week 2 of flowering tomorrow. *Out of the 4 only one looks like it’s more advance into flowering. *Did some Lolipoping.

Day 68 flower. I stopped using the Ripen on day 65. Since then I've been using Florakleen at 2tsp per gallon and RO water only for flush. Pineapple express is flushing at a faster rate still. I had to brace several colas because of the size so I'm really watching closely for any molding issues. I'm planning to hang her up at day 71ish. Rainbow cake is turning a little purple. It looks like its almost finished and I'm planning to pull around day 71 as well. London mint cake is finishing up nicely. I think she's going to need a little more time flushing so she might get pulled a little later than the other 2. Hope you like my pics and videos!

35/60

11/9 - Flush 4L de água para cada. pH 6.5. 17/9 - começo das 48h de escuridão 19/9 - HARVEST DAY!

No food just Water. Flower 12/12 on 9-12-24 = (44 days) or (6 weeks 2 days)

Grand Prixx - Wizard Trees Day 21 - I've transplanted her to her main grow pot, a 10L fabric pot. I also watered her with 1L of RO tap water, with defined nutrients mixed individually in order and then pH'd to 6.3. she looks a bit sad, but I have been purposely under watering her to make the transplant easier! I will now let her settle in over the next few days before she's watered again. 🙏🏻

This isn't my best plant; I'm sad I can't do what it takes to help it reach its full potential.

paper towel and into a peat pellet. worked fine. have put them all in a 20 liter pot to see how it goes. these are in a perma auto flower tent. 20/4 off, in good company. this week we launch the unit. first leaves then new diary.. enojoy and take care

📆 Semana 11 La Mentha de Croco entra en la fase de limpieza final. Con el lavado de raíz ya en marcha, la planta empieza a consumir sus reservas, lo que afina el aroma mentolado y hace que los tricomas avancen hacia su punto definitivo. Los cogollos mantienen su densidad, la resina se vuelve aún más pegajosa y los tonos ámbar aparecen con más claridad en las puntas expuestas. El riego es mínimo y justo, solo para mantener estabilidad mientras termina de pulir sabor y madurez. 🌿 Lavado final: limpieza interna y perfil terpénico afinándose al máximo. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Minor pH drift caused a Ca/Mg deficiency. Corrected with a full water change and adjustments—plants recovered fast. Running 1.8 EC, pH locked at 6.0. Light intensity increased another 25% and VPD at 0.9–1.1. Put the trellis net in—plan is to fully fill most the net within two weeks before flower

Everything went well I had to lay off the water for a week the medium was a little over water finally water today with nutes I seen some good Development this week in buds sites and branch growth I did lst last week so they might not look as tall thanks any Criticism or advice is welcomed

Great progress with not much to report. All my plants this grow I trained to be tall instead of my normal method where I like to spread a plant to the width of my space. About 80cm across.. I thought this time if I trained them tall and thin I could fit 2 side by side. But as I am chicken I decided to do the kush as I normally would so she is a lot wider and not as tall. She is beautiful and I love this strain so far. Fat leaves early in veg to power her stretch and then a more slim leaf like a sativa in flower. This works great as it's letting loads of light through to her lowers Feeds are going in at 1.8 to 1.9ec she's loving it and I think could take a bit more.. but as I said earlier I'm a chicken and she is doing so well...😜 Sorry about the poor video I have 4 plants that are over a meter tall all squashed behind me so I could barley move..😔 Thanks for looking. Grow well 🌿💚🌿🙏🏼

SMOOTHIE AUTO (Fastbuds) 42 days from sprout. At the end of the sixth week and she started getting taller quickly. Almost doubled her height this week. Leaves mostly look good and bud spots are building.

Hey now! This week went very well. I feel like she is finally done growing, and just starting to thicken up and ripen. I did switch from the liquid koolbloom to the dry, and within 48 hours or so I really started noticing the weight of the colas start leaning towards the floor. I did support the main colas last week, but this week I noticed several of the smaller unsupported colas started drooping to the floor, so i added a few support lines. I am thinking maybe she has two or three weeks left. I am not a big believer in an all out flush, as I do not wish to stress her out even near the end. Rather, I am gradually weaning her off the nutes over the next 2-3 weeks. She is starting to get brown tips on almost every leaf so not sure if this is just her being near the end or a bigger issue?? Any advice please hit me up! I'm still struggling with humidity issues, but she seems to be ok! Thank you so much to everyone in this community for all the love, support, and help with my first grow. Thanks and blaze on!

Welcome to my Slurircane Diary sponsored by MSNL & SPIDER-FARMER Sponsored with their SE5000. Veg Days 26-32 Days 36-45 Plant is pushing along well. Good solid growth. Done lots of the last toppings this week. No need to defoliation or LST at this point. Her shape really is perfect. And, I know by know when a plant needs LST. Maybe I'll bend the nodes out lightly after I uppot this wk to an 11L Lights. SE5000 was used and supplied by Spider-Farmer for most of this grow. (Thank you Bella) and for early veg. The SF-1000 was used. So, all SF baby. Great lights. Forgot how much faster this spectrum pushes the plants along. Co2 850-1300ppm. Growth is good. Healthy. Need to be on the ball with this co2 growing. Shit happens so fast. A very light mag def one hr and 4hrs later its full on. Crazy fast for the autos. Haven't been keeping up required co2 levels. And sadly. I pushed this thing into pre flower (how Idk) but, the DLI was been reached. And she was shutting herself down. This is her last through week of veg. I've tried revegging her the the last 2 weeks. But, nothing is happening. She's good. Really nice long nodes. And she'll be a great plant. (I'm 2 weeks ahead, weeks will be updated more frequently)
