- July 1 - Day 22 - Today she was pruned; some leaves were removed, and possibly some branches were cut - July 4 - Day 25 - LST readjusted. - July 6 - Day 27 - only checked humidity and temperature

HI community ! 8 week color goes well. With the help of a variety of fungicides, I try to slow down the growth of plants to light. By nutrition, all excellent plants drink 4 liters of solution all the time.

Started flushing the end of week 6 and continued up until day 46 of flower. Allowed plant to dried and was harvested on day 48 of flower. I was initially planning on giving her a few more days but due to a recent volcanic eruption in a nearby caribbean island, ash and other foul weather conditions pose a serious threat to crops so I decided to cut her just before ash and other things happened which would affect quality. Very impressed with strain from start to finish. She definitely didn't have enough support for her colas but I got her a little over 1m2 So I'm expecting at least 450-600g of dried buds. * Video was taken on harvest day. I was making space to put all this plant since I also harvested others recently so they were only hing in direct light for a few minutes before being transferred to their drying room. Harvest weight and more pics to follow by 4/20 Overall she will have a fine mixture of buds. Some have at least 20-25% amber, others only milky and some with a tad bit of clear on the trichome. Should be a delight to smoke and thank you for following my diary this far. Great appreciated and until next week............ #HappyGrowing

well my girl is in her final days. My scope is broken so I need some insight, her flowers look so ripe, this update had to be for tomorrow but she looks so good don't want to get an over ripe bud need her to be perfect✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️🔍🔍🔍

They were eating and growing at a fast rate. I had to Increase the water almost 50%. Happy growing

plants are really exploding, bubba kush is furthest along probably two weeks ahead of plants on the left. Kush is stacking up frost and smelling super sweet. buds just starting to form on C-99 and Dx4(GG4x Chem D)

First week of adding Resin finish to stop cel devision and increase trichome production. Dropped ec to 1.35 No change on buds just yet other than mild rusting / deficiencies. Maybe light increase is trichomes. Purchased a jewellers loupe so i can now watch the trichomes ripen

🍰 Lava Cake – Final Harvest & Smoke Report GrowDiaries | Week 8 (Harvest & Cure) After months of dedication, lessons, and love, our Lava Cake journey comes to a close — and what an ending it is. Both phenotypes reached maturity beautifully, wrapped in dense, resin-coated buds that carry the unmistakable aroma of sweetness and spice. 🌱 From Seed to Harvest — A Journey in Full Bloom Our Lava Cake journey began from seed with two unique phenotypes, both full of potential and personality. Week after week, through careful nutrition, TrolMaster monitoring, and endless observation, we watched them evolve. From the early stages of vegetative vigor, through the lush canopy of mid-flower, and even through the challenges of heat and bud rot, these girls showed true resilience. Each setback taught something — about balance, airflow, humility, and the living rhythm of nature. Both plants were ultimately harvested with respect and gratitude. ⸻ ✂️ Harvest & Trimming After about two weeks of slow drying at 60°F / 60% RH, the branches began to snap — a sure sign the moisture was just right. Each plant was trimmed by hand, carefully and patiently, letting every calyx, pistil, and trichome tell its own story. The buds were dense, sticky, and heavily frosted — a trimmer’s delight. Finger hash collected along the way was pure gold, rich in aroma and bursting with terpenes. Each snip of the scissors felt like sculpting something sacred. Both plants were dried whole, allowing for slower moisture migration and a smoother final cure. ⸻ 🌿 On Trichomes and Harvest Timing We chose to harvest when most trichomes were cloudy, with only a few still clear and very few amber. This moment — just before full amber maturity — is where potency meets flavor at its peak. Why cloudy trichomes? Because that’s when cannabinoids like THC and terpenes are at their maximum activity. Too early, and you lose potency; too late, and THC starts converting into CBN, giving a heavier, sleepier effect. Cloudy trichomes deliver a balanced high — euphoric yet grounding — capturing the essence of the strain in its full potential. ⸻ 🌸 Aroma, Taste & Effects The Lava Cake lives up to her name and lineage. Her rich terpene profile brings waves of sweet baked goods, layered with berry and grape undertones inherited from her Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies x Grape Pie heritage. When smoked, she’s smooth, creamy, and sweet, leaving a lingering flavor on the palate that feels like dessert for the senses. The effects are deeply relaxing, melting away tension and replacing it with calm contentment. This isn’t a beginner’s strain — her high is potent, steady, and full-bodied. A few tokes are enough to drift into a deeply peaceful, happy state. Perfect for evenings, rest days, or moments when the world needs to slow down. ⸻ 🌬️ Curing — Grove Bags & UV Glass Jars After trimming, buds were stored in Grove Bags, which naturally maintain humidity between 55–62%, eliminating the need for daily “burping.” These innovative curing bags use a one-way humidity membrane, preserving terpenes and color while preventing mold. Alongside them, we used black UV-resistant glass jars — perfect for long-term storage, protecting cannabinoids from light degradation and keeping aromas fresh. Together, these methods allowed the buds to cure into perfection — firm, aromatic, and bursting with flavor. ⸻ 🔥 Resin, Hash & Full Spectrum Bar All trim from the grow — not just from Lava Cake — was collected to make a full-spectrum bar using simple, natural heat extraction with hot water in a glass bottle. The result was a potent, sticky, terpene-rich concentrate that perfectly captures the soul of the garden. ⸻ ⚖️ Final Yields • Pheno #1: 144g dry • Pheno #2: 99g dry Both phenotypes displayed amazing bud density and structure. In fact, their sheer weight caused a few branches to snap under their own mass — another reason that influenced our harvest timing. These were heavy girls, through and through. 🌿💪 ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude & Reflections To everyone who followed along — thank you. To Zamnesia, for the genetics and inspiration, thank you. To the GrowDiaries community, the supporters, the doubters, and everyone in between — thank you for being part of this experience. And above all, thanks to God, because without Him, none of this beauty — not even the smallest seed — would exist. Growing Lava Cake wasn’t just about cultivation; it was about connection, learning, and the sacred patience of nature. ⸻ 🌀 Closing Thoughts From seed to smoke, these Lava Cakes have been a story of flavor, resilience, and soul. Despite challenges like heat and bud rot, the final result was spectacular: frosty, aromatic, powerful flowers that embody everything beautiful about this craft. As we light the first cured joint, we celebrate not just the harvest, but the journey itself. Until the next grow — stay curious, stay kind, and keep growing. 🌱💚 Thank you to everyone who followed this run — your support, questions, and shared passion have been part of what made this project so rewarding. The full smoke review will follow this harvest report and will be presented in 4K on YouTube, where we’ll document the aroma, flavor, burn, and overall experience with both phenotypes and the pressed hash. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

420 Fastbuds Week 2 Amnesia Zkittlez Auto This has been a good week. One has really taken off on growth. The other is a but smaller but I think it is due to spouting upside down and having to be fixed. All in all both are super healthy with no signs of issues. Will keep up the same schedule we're on at the moment it seems to be working out good and plants seem to enjoy the environment. Happy Growing everyone

Dam these are making me happy! Took clones for future seeds!

Diese Woche kam endlich mein Luftbefeuchter von AC Infintiy an, habe die Luftfeuchtigkeit gleich mal auf 75% hochgeschraubt, ich denke in der aktuellen Phase habe ich noch kein hohes Risiko mit Schimmer. Ich werde die gleiche Luftfeuchtigkeit noch in der vierten Woche halten und danach suggestiv um 5% pro Woche runter gehen. Außerdem habe ich diese Woche eine halbe BTI Tablette auf 10l Wasser eingesetzt um die Trauermücken ein bisschen unter Kontrolle zu bekommen. Außerdem habe ich Reismilch angesetzt, selbige werde ich morgen mit Milch mischen, dann einige Tage warten und dann die daraus resultierende Milchsäure als Zusatz für das Gießwasser zu geben.

This week the girls were covered in snow. I've never seen anything like it with my own eyes before, only in pictures :D The lower large leaves have turned yellow, but this time don't panic :D experts say it's normal.

Hello m8 welcome to this journey with me in this diary will have very interesting strains hope u find something useful O.G.

Familia, estoy convencido de que esta variedad va a predominar del resto 🙈. No ahora en serio una gran variedad para cultivadores novatos, puedes plantarlas directamente a maceta y no se espigarán 3/3 comprobado. Parece muy sencilla de cultivar, controlamos ph , temperatura y humedad que estén en sus respectivos valores. Se ven bastante sanas, pronto tocará hacer algún trasplante iremos viendo próximamente

Y bueno Fumetillaas ya en la semana 10 cumpliendo con el propósito de este medio ... Ir informando que pasa x ende querías decirles que nunca medimos ec... La verdad no podía frenar el amarillento o esas carencias ... Controlaba ph y suficiente... Ahora empezaremos a medir ec y ph para poder tener mejor electro conductividady tener mejor absorción de nutrientes ya que medimos macetas después del riego y tenemos una ec de 4.5 a 3.5 la cual deberia estar en otros parámetros por ende ... Siempre tuvimos alimentos suficientes para ellas solo que no teniamos la implementación necesaria... Después de la 11 a 12 cortamos y subimos el final de esta planta que luchó con todo

Flushed 9 days ppm back to normal drinking water. Trichomes very cloudy 10 % Amber. Week of drying then will give yield #. Maybe 100g fingers crossed last same strain b4 this one produced 125grams of dryed good nug.

9.1.25: Bubble

I added side lighting (400w) to see if it can increase the density of the lower buds. We will see.
