📁 Folder 11 – LSD Week 3 · VEG (12/12 from Seed) Week 3 closes with beautiful, confident growth across all plants. Uniformity is strong, vigor is consistent, and it’s becoming very clear that we are working with solid, stable genetics. Despite different timelines, all plants are responding exceptionally well to the environment, the feeding program, and the hands-on approach. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development & Structure • 15-day VEG sister • Clearly larger and more established, as expected • Already pushing into approximately the 7th node • Strong vertical structure and well-spaced internodes • Acts as a reference point for genetic potential • 12/12-from-seed sisters • Currently working through the 3rd to 4th node • New true leaves actively emerging • If counting early single leaves, development aligns perfectly for Week 3 • All plants are remarkably similar in structure and expression Across the board, plants are showing: • Lush, healthy green coloration • Strong leaf posture • Excellent response to the soil and feeding regimen No signs of stress. No confusion. Just steady progression. ⸻ 🌿 Leaf Expression & Genetics Leaf shape, color, and texture are extremely consistent across all individuals. This level of similarity reinforces the idea that these genetics are well-selected and stable. So far: • No erratic behavior • No weak individuals • No outliers Everything feels balanced and intentional. ⸻ 💧 Watering Philosophy (Hands-On Approach) At this stage, everything is hand-watered, one plant at a time. • No automated irrigation • No connected systems • No shared reservoirs Each pot is lifted, weighed, and observed individually. Watering decisions are based on: • Pot weight • Visual cues • Leaf posture • Overall plant behavior This approach allows for: • Individual attention • Better understanding of each plant’s needs • Stronger grower–plant connection While this method will later be explained in more depth through video content, it’s important to document it here so readers understand how decisions are being made during these early stages. ⸻ 💡 Light & Environment (Baseline) Plants continue to grow into the light under a controlled PPFD range. No pushing, no forcing — just gradual adaptation. Everything else remains aligned with the locked baseline: • Stable temperatures • Balanced humidity • Consistent feeding • Clean, predictable conditions ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect • Continued node stacking and leaf expansion • Increased growth speed as root systems mature • Clearer differentiation between the 15-day VEG plant and the 12/12-from-seed plants • Preparation for more visible vertical movement in the coming weeks 🚫 What Not to Expect (Yet) • No explosive stretch just yet • No need for stronger feeding • No aggressive training • No automation at this stage Observation remains the priority. ⸻ 📝 Final Notes Week 3 confirms that LSD is thriving under this approach. The combination of strong genetics, consistent environment, and hands-on care is producing predictable, healthy results. This is one of those weeks where nothing dramatic happens — and that’s a very good sign. Everything is right where it should be.

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.

On day 3 -4 of 5 seeds have germinated! On day 4 all 4 seedlings were fed 500 ppm veg nutes. On day 5 seedlings were transplanted into 4" nursery pots with myco. I watered them in with 600 ppm of feed. Ppfd 450-500.

Start of week 5, think she has finally stopped stretching maybe Starting to thicken up the bud sites on the long tall colas Two poly colas, one splits into a fork, the other is a single massive bat of a cola already, this thing has 7 or 8 weeks left to go yet, insanity, cant wait too what this ends up like 😂😂😂🌲🌳🌿

Day 93 got the tent open to try keep the humidity down

На прошедшей неделе не случилось ничего необычного, продолжаю формировать зеленый экран, и это довольно увлекательное занятие, как-будто собираешь большой живой пазл. Некоторые загнутые под Scrog ветки скручиваются по спирали, уже начинает вырисовываться будущая структура кустов, пока всё в норме. Повторно внёс Delta9, в этот раз под корень. В конце недели(55 день) сделал дефолиацию, признаков цветения пока не обнаружено, но я и не тороплюсь. upd: 56 день, заметил первые стигмы, начался предцвет. Спасибо, что заглянули, и будьте здоровы! 🙏 Продолжение следует ...😶

Day 8: Dampened down around soil again and continued to use the Force to make the plant grow. Day 9: Nothing to report. Mr.Nelson played me songs he wrote. He’s not very good and all his songs sound the same. He should probably stick to just growing weed and leave the singing to the professionals. Day 10: Dampened down around stem again. Looks like it will need a full watering in the next few days. R2 laid down some beats today while Mr.Nelson played us more of his songs. Day11: Gave full watering today. It took 3ltrs to run off. Day 12: There’s continuous obvious growth every day. It was just me and R2 today. It was nice to get a break from Mr.Nelson’s songs. Day 13: Continued to use the Force to make the plant grow. No need for watering. Found myself humming Mr.Nelsons song ‘City of New Orleans’ all day. Catchy tune. 🎶 Day 14: Two weeks old today. Mr.Nelson thinks this is a good reason to have a Rainbow 🌈 Party. Plant looks okay for water. Moving it a little further from the light today.

The pictures and video are from day 15 since the flip. however i think the plant is now really in day 7 flower as i flipped early to keep the flower space under one square meter. so the plants vegged another week after the 12/12 anyway as you can see they have 0 defincies and a very nice even cannopy, not much space between the nodes is what i like a lot.

Nothing new, a little late. I‘ll keep you updated✌️

Another week went by so fast! Her buds are developing nicely, becoming more colorful and much thicker. After each defoliation we are discovering more and more buds that were growing beneath the leaves. The numerous trichomes turn into milky, little bubbleheads. I really adore the look of her buds this close; the colors, as well as the overall look is just stunning! Topdressed her with worm castings (Plagron.-Mega Worm) for supplementary nutrients. Additionally watering with pure water to balance out the nutrient level within the plant. Also added some SF nematodes (Steinernema feltiae) to resolve our issue with fungus gnats.

Welcome to week 4 of my grow diary. The plant has grown significantly this week. This week, I also gave it half a dose of Sugar Royal from Plagron. The fertilizer consists exclusively of nitrogen and has probably given it a good growth boost. I didn't think it would stretch so quickly. There are no signs of pre-flowering yet. I also enriched the water with Epsom salts because the water in our area has a high calcium content, thus creating a better balance. The dosage was probably a little too high, as the leaves are curling downwards and are dark green. See you next week!

Week 4 that i had missed and didn't upload so here it is <3

Week 6 flower, half way there! Buds are starting to fill in now and getting some decent frost. A couple of tops are getting more light than others, and fattening a bit more and looking real nice. It looks like there is some purple starting to come out at the tops. She is strong and will go as fast as the soil and environmental conditions will allow her to. Hand watered in Gaia Green Soluble Seaweed Extract 0-0-17, otherwise water drip is running on same schedule. Just using straight tap water that sits in a 30 gallon reservoir with a submergible water pump running 24/7 breaking surface and aerating water. Water comes out the tap @ 7ph and less than 15ppm. So I don’t do nothing to it, I drink it:) Thanks for the view 🤜 Have a great week!

Big girls. Usually don’t let them get this big. They are starting to yellow a bit on the bottom. Not enough water me thinks

Fine

Updated once its dry Smells intense fruity

I believe the plants still have a little stretch in them. They have not grown much since the bud production picked up last week. The berry bomb still seems to work well off lite nutrients. The smell has started to choose days that it stinks, and days it is invisible. I live in a legal state; I am allowed up to 12 plants. Smell is not a issue for me. I do not need to hide my grows. I had to set up a wire tie on the plant in the videos. She started to lean right. While setting it up the smell that stuck to my gloves was very fruity. I cannot wait to smoke the final out come. The berry bomb auto has been super resilient to most common grow issues. She also bounces back insanely quick fro stress. This is not something I have seen in many auto flowers due to the limited time they have to grow, and bud. I am so impressed by the genetics of this plant. I'm just blown away with this grow.

Lots of preflowers and already frosty AF. They are just now turning from pre's to buds.. I am also mimicking insects as crazy as that sounds.. Every other day I cut few leaves off, or slice off some leaf tips.. Besides cold nights I think that's a good way to make them think they have to defend themselves. Haven't had any health issues or insect issues thank God. The two girls I transplanted late are looking good didn't slows down. If anything they looked like they are happier, leaves up and creating tri's all over. About four weeks to go, But once again things are good to go.

01.09 - d0 Had 30/30 seeds germinate - solid. My solo cups are bottom 1/3 Nature's Living Soil Super Soil and top 2/3 ffof Topped as soon as node 3 growth tips we visible. 01.16 - d7

Seeds started to pop about 4-5 days after germination I got 100% germ on this run
