Día 32. Esta semana corté los esquejes. El dia 30 de crecimiento. Saqué 8 y los puse a enraizar en lana de roca, dentro de media botella de 6lt tapada con otra mitad. Mantengo la solución de la semana anterior. Hasta ahora la planta se ve muy bien. Ya dentro de una semana espero tener raíces y pasarlas al indoor de arriba con la madre. La configuración del espacio va a ser un desafío dado que la madre tiene las ramas muy abiertas. A primera idea, supongo que haré que los costados sean ocupados por la madre y guiaré los 4 esquejes para que ocupen el centro del indoor. De todos modos seguro aplique tecnicas de guiado y/o cortes en los esquejes. Una vez arriba pienso darles una semana de crecimiento y ver, en base al tamaño que tengan, si ya los paso a floración. Quiero aprovechar el primer cultivo para tener una referencia de espacio y tamaño. El tiempo va pasando más rápido de lo que imaginé y ver los cambios tan rápidos ha ayudado. Debo admitir que soy un poco obsesivo y eso me hace más fanático de la hidroponia, ya que el cultivo es más limpio y mucho más rápido para crecer. Ahora tengo que esperar ver. Subo un video con la configuración terminada, y de esa forma, se puede entender la idea. Sorry for those who don't speak spanish, but I've made the video in spanish. Anyways you can see and understand the configuration. Estoy orgulloso de lo que pude armar usando maderas de palets y otras que también encontré en la calle. La mayoría de los artefactos los tenía de otros indoors que he tenido. Ya prontl habrá actualizaciones sobre el avance. Pero seguramente para cuando estén enraizados los esquejes, esté en la 6ta semana de crecimiento y llegaré a las 7 sumando lo que haga crecer las plantas arriba. Ya anticipo que el próximo cultivo será con la Black Jack de Sweet Seeds, aunque me queda sólo una, y espero poderla germinar con éxito. Sino habrá que salir a comprar otra variedad y en Argentina no hay variedad. No quisera volver a caer en BSF. Saludos!

I thought I just had two of this strain, but it turns out that the 134g plant was actually a C4 hybrid! It isn't as pungent smelling as the others, but seems to have it's own unique flavor going on. I like it! 115g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 134g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 151g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4]  TOTAL: 400g 👍

2025 Plagron / Zamnesia Eternity Grow Week 7 / Flower week 3 2/16-22 Runtz is in full bloom, the buds are puffing out with many white pistols. Trichomes are just starting to form. She is still adding leaves so I probably should not have taken off so much last week. This may have been stressful. There are some brown tips showing and some spots. She has nutrient issues too, just not as bad as Blue Cheese 1. Took pictures and moved the girls around in the tent. I also moved the carrots to the other tent with the veggie seedlings because Love Potion is getting so big, 2/17 &19 &21 5 gal fed 2 liter each nutrients added at ½ of recommended amount Bloom Juice 60 ml Royal Rush 16 ml Power bud 16ml Green sensation 16 ml Cal Mag 15ml Ppm 683 Ph 6.5 Temp 65 Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

🌱 GMO Cookies — Week 2 (12/12 from Seed) Folder #5 | Grow Bags | PRO-MIX Week two is now complete, and this girl is developing beautifully and very consistently. All plants in this run are growing extremely similar, which is always a great sign at this stage. Structure, color, and pace are aligned across the board. By the end of the week, they are pushing into their third to fourth pair of true leaves, with healthy spacing and no signs of stress. Leaf color is vibrant, growth is balanced, and everything points toward a solid foundation being built below the surface. ⸻ 🌱 Medium & Roots — PRO-MIX + Mycorrhizae These plants are growing in PRO-MIX inside grow bags, and this medium deserves a short explanation. PRO-MIX comes pre-inoculated with mycorrhizal fungi, which play a major role early on: • They form a symbiotic relationship with the roots • Increase nutrient and water uptake • Improve root surface area • Help plants handle stress and environmental swings better At this stage, while top growth looks calm and controlled, a lot of the real work is happening underground. Strong roots now mean easier transitions later, especially when stretch and flower demand kick in. ⸻ 💡 Light Cycle & Environment All plants are running 12/12 from seed, no exceptions. Current environment (Week 2): • Temperature: stable and warm, optimized for early development • Humidity: kept slightly higher to support root and leaf expansion • PPFD: elevated for this stage on purpose The higher PPFD is intentional. These plants are healthy, rooted, and responding well, so we allow them to work a little harder. This encourages: • Stronger stems • Faster metabolic rhythm • Better preparation for the upcoming transition phase No stress signals, no clawing, no fading — so we stay the course. ⸻ ✂️ Training No training at this stage. No topping, no bending, no interference. Right now, the goal is symmetry, rhythm, and consistency. We let the plant show us her natural structure before making any decisions later on. ⸻ Genetics Talk — GMO Cookies This is the one that has me genuinely curious. GMO Cookies is known for that deep garlic / savory punch, layered over the classic cookies backbone. It’s not a “loud early” plant — this is usually a cultivar that reveals itself later, once structure and resin production begin to speak. Right now, we’re not expecting aromas or explosive growth — and that’s exactly how it should be. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week Expect: • Faster node stacking • Thicker stems • Increased leaf size • Continued uniformity across plants Do NOT expect yet: • Strong smells • Stretch explosion • Flower expression Next week is still about building the engine, not revving it. ⸻ 🌿 Final Thoughts This GMO Cookies run is doing exactly what it should be doing — nothing more, nothing less. Healthy, controlled, consistent growth is always the goal, and this folder is on point. Very excited to see how this one expresses herself as we move forward.

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.

Quick Summary: moved and transplanted around day 18 into 5 gal. airpots with fresh ocean forrest, flowering began around day 24, thought I maybe had some nutrient burn, more likely cause is phosphorous and/or cal/mag deficiencies, three plants in the home stretch, O has a bit longer Day 50 Update: Watered and took some pictures last night. Not much new. Pretty sure they have massive deficiencies instead of any burn. I may chronically underwater/underfeed my plants. I'm still learning. This is my fourth grow ever so there's still lots to learn. Day 51 Update: Meant to water today but didn't. Day 52 Update: I spent a while with each plant and took some pictures/video when plant O was out of the tent. You can see some pretty clear brown spots on a fair bit of the shorter two plants. S is all kinds of ugly, but who knows, maybe still put out a decent weight. I fed twice in a row now and added some CaliMagic (forget the company name) this time. I read about how when there are stronger lights or MORE lights, the plants can burn through phosphorous rapidly, so maybe that's the issue I had. Either way, about day 40 seems like when the nutrients can be more steadily increased. The shorter two, V and P, have about 2ish weeks so that will likely be their last feeding. S too probably. O, on the other hand, has several weeks left but is looking otherwise really solid. Hopefully I got enough nutrients in early enough in that plant's flowering that it won't show any deficiencies. It's a monster too! 38 inches to the top of the spire. The other three are 25, 21, and 19 inches still so likely their final heights. I kept the tallest as the plant height for the diary because the top end is good to know for other indoor growers. Day 53 Update: No news. Day 54 Update: No news. Day 55 Update: S, V, and P are the three shorter plants. They are all starting to take water a bit slower. They didn’t *need* water tonight, so I’ll give them another day. O, on the other hand, is a monster! Probably needed water yesterday. Filtered tap, about 2 gal for O tonight. Food next time for O also. Others are in the wind-down so we’ll see. Pics added from tonight. Day 56 Update: Nothing to report.

Was a real pleasure to grow. Super easy with a low budget light and top nutrients. Got really nice plants and was really happy to find that I'd be happy am to do more strains from Divine Seeds. I've already started new strains in big pots giving me big phenos Delighted to have this in my collection. Took 10 days to dry. Only got about 2 weeks into the cure before it was gone. But, still has a lovely high & taste

Just about ready for her final home in the 3 gallon.. just waiting on a little bit of a dry back, I find better success of transplanting right about as a plant needs to be watered so that the medium doesn't fall apart and take the precious roots with it ✌️

Ramping up the EC continued. 1.2 for this week. It is increasingly hungry though so I need to find the balance for how much to ramp. I'd rather go a bit too low than too high though so taking it slow. Flowers have appeared and are slowly starting to develop. A subtle and very delicious smell is starting to develop. Also since last week they've been drinking a lot more obviously. Been giving around a liter a day each. Once a week a lot less to dry them out. Did some LST again as I wanted them to cover more surface. Lets see how next week goes.

Day 70- 2nd day of flush. Plant 1 is pretty much done, just waiting for trichs to amber up a bit. Plant 2 has a ways to go, but I’m flushing anyway. Wifey complained about the choking smell, but realized my in tent filter was off because a branch lifted the plug out of the socket 🙄🙄 Day 75 - past few days been feeding PK at 0.7 EC, waiting for the trichs to turn. Going back to plain water tonight. #2 plant has much larger buds, but is waaayyy behind #1 - still tons of white pistils.

Beginning of week.. I raised the lights a little.. They are at 50% power at 18" (roughly) from the plants. The ladies are getting from 420 to 500 PPFD. Went ahead and fed them some extra FloraMicro this week.. I'm guessing they are just very hungry girls.. And I'm thinking the pH in the rootzone issue is not clearing up at all.. BUT.. It seems like no matter what pH I water them with.. The runoff ALWAYS comes out at 5.8 or 5.9 with the Mandarin Cookies and 5.8 or 5.7 with the ETHOS Cookies.. So if you want to reuse your coco coir.. Make sure to remove ALL the roots. The girls dont look too bad at all.. And that's why I'm guessing they just needed more nutes in the mix.. We shall see how this week goes! Mid week.. They are looking alot better! Mandarin Cookies is exploding woth growth.. ETHOS Cookies is growing slow but she is growing for sure.. I think I may need to remove a node or 2 on the ETHOS Cookies.. I could just leave it.. But the very top 2 are covering alot of tops.. I could make some clones from it.. Hmm.. All-in-all.. I'm happy with how these girls are growing for now tho.. This rootzone issue isnt going away.. But I think I found a way to make it work out.. I've been watering a little differently.. Here is a bit of an example: Day 1: Feed at 6.5 Day 3: Water at 6.4 Day 5: Feed at 6.3 Day 7: Water at 6.2 Day 9: Feed at 6.5 Day 11: Water at 6.4 Day 13: Feed at 6.3 Day 15: Water at 6.2 Etc... The runoff is staying above 5.5 each time.. But as I lower the pH, the runoff pH lowers as well (obviously).. So I think watering this way has helped keep these gorgeous ladies happy.. And theyare also very hungry.. I may have to start watering one plant every other day.. Water plant 1 tomo.. Water plant 2 the next day.. Then plant 1 the next day and then plant 2 the next day etc... 1 reason I want to start doing it that way is because I think the ETHOS Cookies isn't needing as much nutes as the Mandarin Cookies.. But they are looking great. Very happy and so are they! The heat has been insane lately.. So at the hottest part of the day I try to just turn the light down to 25% for 4 hours or so.. I hate having to do that.. But it's all I can do for now.. Or maybe change the light/dark hours.. Blah.. Whatever, they are happy! End of week.. I supercropped 2 branches.. They pretty much healed up and are already back to normal.. Like it didnt bring them down any lower at all lol.. It straightened back up and its as if nothing happened.. Just a big ass (MOOSE) knuckle lol.. But I stopped using the Kushie Kush and was just using the normal Gen Hydro FloraBloom in the mix. Will be upping the FloraGro next week! Wow.. Such hungry ladies! It's been so long since I've grown a bigger photo period.. I forgot how much they can take!.. On to the next!...

I didn't prepare this crop well enough, I still need to work on a schedule. I tried to correct processes that I thought were wrong but they were actually correct so I got a new overfeeding.

After 2 weeks I chose my favorite plant of the three and prepared her for the Autopot. Now she needs to root this pot for another 2 weeks before we can turn on the Aqua Valve and the tank. DLI 30

Transplant during week 3 was a success! All 4 plants made it from their original solo cup containers into their 5 gallon fabric pots. Once in their larger pots, each plant was watered with 1 gallon of water/plant (no nutrient). Lighting was also brought back up to 30% this week as the leaf curling that was observed previously has subsided.
