Shit got out of control, i had to perform an LST to keep the big sister under control and she is the biggest plant I’ve ever grown although She is developing buds everywhere and im not really sure but for me this is bad as i think sometimes less is more, its clear that the plant just can’t distribute the same nutrients on 10 buds/20buds, so i expect them to be soft and not potent, maybe THAT xxl pheno, im sure someone else could have get even more, shame that I can’t clone her Little sister is looking so nice tho, Perfect structure, just amazing looking and beautiful to its maximum

🌱 Sour Diesel — Week 10 From Seed (Week 5 Flower) The comeback story. ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — The “Unhappy Girl” That Didn’t Quit This Sour Diesel started as the most challenged plant in the room. Slow growth, stress signals early on, and clearly behind her sisters. But plants don’t quit — they adapt. She stayed smaller (~60 cm), but instead of stretching for size, she focused on recovery and survival. And now, in Week 5 of flower, we’re seeing something special: 👉 A full metabolic comeback 👉 Active water uptake (~1.2L/day) 👉 Healthy flower development despite early setbacks This is why we document everything — not just perfection, but resilience. 🔬 Macro World — What We’re Really Seeing This week, we zoom in — literally. Macro photography shows us what the eye misses: ✨ Trichomes (The Frost Begins) • Tiny resin glands forming on sugar leaves and calyxes • At this stage: mostly clear → early cloudy • Function: • UV protection • Pest defense • Secondary metabolite production (terpenes, cannabinoids) 👉 This is the plant saying: “I’m protecting my flowers now.” ⸻ 🌸 Calyxes (The Core of the Flower) • The actual reproductive structure • Each calyx = potential seed site (if pollinated) • Now stacking and swelling slowly 👉 This is where your final yield is built. ⸻ 🌿 Pistils / White Hairs • These are stigmas, part of the female reproductive system • Their job: • Catch pollen • Signal reproductive maturity At Week 5: • Still mostly white → plant is actively building, not finishing • Upright and fresh → healthy hormonal signaling 👉 White pistils = growth mode 👉 Dark/orange pistils = maturity progression ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Feeding (Dialed In) You kept it consistent — and that’s why she bounced back: • 🌡️ Temp: 28°C • 💧 RH: 60–65% • ⚗️ pH: ~6.0 • ⚡ EC: 2.4 • 🌬️ CO₂: ~1000 ppm • 🚰 Water intake: ~1.2L/day 👉 That water uptake is key — it tells us: roots are active → metabolism is running → recovery is real ⸻ 📸 Plant Structure & Expression • Smaller frame, but balanced structure • Bud sites forming across the plant • No wasted energy — everything is focused 👉 She didn’t win the height race… 👉 But she’s still in the quality game ⸻ 🧠 What This Plant Teaches Not every plant is a monster. Some are: • Stressed early • Slower to adapt • Smaller in size But with stability and patience: 👉 They recover 👉 They produce 👉 They surprise you This is grower discipline — not chasing perfection, but supporting the process. ⸻ 🎒 Official Introduction — Mr. Baggy He’s been around… now it’s official. Mr. Baggy is part of the team. From garden runs to studio sessions — always present. A reminder that even in serious work… 👉 we keep it human 👉 we keep it fun 👉 we keep it ours ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week (Week 6 Flower) • Calyx swelling will accelerate • Trichome production will increase visibly • Pistils may begin slight color change in some areas • Aroma profile will start developing deeper layers ⚠️ Key focus: • Watch EC → avoid pushing too hard now • Maintain airflow (density is coming) • Stay consistent — no big changes ⸻ 🤝 Gratitude From grower to growers: Big love to: • The GrowDiaries community • Everyone following — OGs & new • Supporters, challengers, silent watchers And to the people behind the tools: • Plagron • Zamnesia • The lights above us ⸻ 🌱 Closing She started as the weakest in the room. Now she’s a reminder: 👉 Growth isn’t always fast 👉 Progress isn’t always big 👉 But resilience… always shows 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficialNEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

8/10: Seeing great growth now..lots of branching. I actually fed them yesterday, but didn't update...several have popped some pistils and pretty much the rest are about to, and I'm out of bat guano, so I went ahead and gave them Open Sesame so they'd have more P available over the next several days. 8/11: I rearranged the garden a little. Moved all four #10's to the right side, the #4's are mostly in the middle...very branchy..the others, mostly to the left are the #2's and maybe a #3. The big plant on the lower left is an auto, as is the runt, and the plant at lower right. The "fern-looking" plant is actually a Jacaranda Tree (blue fern tree)...it's about to get kicked out... 8/12: I did a little training on some of the bushier #4's today. I don't have much space to work with, but I was able to do a little to encourage a race for apex dominance. There were enough pistils on them that I decided to switch the week to "Flowering." 8/13: I fed them today with ONE and added Open Sesame, Silica, Signal, and Sweet & Sticky. I sprayed them all with Axiom (Harpin proteins) and Boom Boom Spray right at dark. 8/14: BAM! They are poppin pistils left and right now...lotsa lovely little cotton tops.👍 8/15: Day 15 since the flip to 12/12..good progress. The #2's and #10's are stacking up and stretching pretty well and the #4's just keep bushing up.

Hot damn this is a pretty plant. Enormous fan leaves, tight nodes, and LOTS of em. This plant continues to impress, however, some of her daughters are blowing past her in height, surprisingly. Room is on point, mother is happy and healthy. 55 days or so till harvest:)

Week three all the girls are strong and healthy no problems. Besides the sherbet cream cakes seem to have some problems with the transplant possibly you know what I’m not exactly sure of what went wrong with them, but they both are smaller, but much slower growth rate in all other strains I have planted Besides that everybody is still nice and happy. The girls are still getting foliage fed every four days with pure protein, soluble kelp meal as well as getting boogie brew, heavy harvest tea every seven days. I added two videos to this week to kind of show how the girls really look it’s hard to get a good look at them with a photo but they’re all growing well and healthy but they’re kind of just trees right now and we want bushes so as of this week, I think after I give them their tea tomorrow, I will tie everything down and start stretching and we want at the end of this grow to have at least 10 foot of width on all four big girls. Well, still achieving a strong height of hopefully 8 feet..

Oct 1 - plant was flushed tonight with 25 gallons of water, more of a precaution, and it was a first, mid-grow flush Oct 4th - top-dressed soil with Kelp Meal, scratched it in; 1/tsp per Gallon of soil - foliar spray (mist) every 3rd day for now. In flower, foliar applications become weekly events, until the 3rd week of flower, then it's stops - next meal planned for is 7.6L / 2 gallons. That is the planned max for the grow Oct 5th - air flow between the Pots was Non-existent… so I gave them a little room to assist with the drying times. 6th - plant was fed 7L 7th - last day of the week.

Very strong amnesia smell, smells a little bit louder than the pheno #2 however the clasic amnesia smell it's awesome, cannot wait for her to be Ready!! 👨‍🌾💚 Stay tuned!

Hola a todos, día 32 de floración, la planta ha crecido 4" esta semana y los cálices comenzaron a engordar, he aplicado podas menores para mejorar la penetración de luz y HST para mantener algunas ramas bajo el foco (aunque cada ve se hace más difícil), baje los nutrientes base para disminuir la ingesta de nitrógeno y junto con esto estoy agregando de a poco fósforo y potasio. Esta semana hay novedades, me hice de una cámara deportiva y comencé a grabar videos timelapse, es primera vez que lo hago así que paciencia, de a poco irán mejorando. Hasta la próxima!

6/17: I am keeping things as is for the time being. The light is 20 inches from the plant at 350 PPFD on a 24 hour light schedule. Growth seems to be constant and picking up steam with tighter inter-nodal spacing at these settings. I plan to switch from the seedling light spectrum to a vegetative light spectrum once the second set of true leaves gets a bit more of its form. I will also change the light schedule from 24hr to 20/4. 6/19: Today marks the first day of the 20/4 light schedule using a vegetative light spectrum. All other conditions are the same. I'm still only spraying the soil once a day but feel by next week, I can up the feeding with a little calmag. We will see! 6/22: End of week two and things are looking great. I'm still a newb but I can see improvement in my strategy this grow. The plant is growing nicely and seems to be on a good pace. 6/21, I added in some calmag and upped the feeding amount. I also bumped my lighting up a bit too. I saw quick results as seen in the timelapse that day, as the leaves started to pray up. As of Sunday, all is well and so far this grow is exceeding my expectations! WEEK 2 AVG TEMP: 72.6F WEEK 2 AVG HUMIDITY: 74.3%

So far the plants look great, a little stretched out but seem healthy. They stretched a bit further than I would have liked before flipping to 12/12 but that's ok. The netting I ordered is too small so I will try and add some more sections with some string or something. Did some light defoliation, when the plants are healthy I like to defoliate pretty heavily and continuously throughout flower. The Autopot has been great so far, there's been a slightly concerning smell from the reservoir, but not alarming. ✨Thurs Sept 15✨ 6.4 ph 710 ppm 1410 EC Reservoir is starting to smell quite nasty. I added 5 Gallons to push it to the weekend then I will do a full clean. Plants are looking fantastic

3/6/2023 - Day 8 Flower: Not a lot to report. The girls are definitely stretching. Grew about 10 inches in the last week. Did a light foliar today with some Pure Protein Dry. Figured with the significant growth they could use a little extra nitrogen. Even with the recent stretch, I've been real pleased with the node spacing. Looking like they are going to stack real nice. They a drinking much faster now too. They will need to be watered again tomorrow, so they are drinking about 8 gallons a week. Other than some very minimal tip yellowing of a few leaves, thay look healthy as can be. 3/7/2023 - Day 9: watered with 4 gallons of 6.5 ph water. Added Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja as a wetting agent, then added Rootwise Enzyme Elixer, and Bio-Phos, BuildASoil Big 6, BuildABloom, Coconut Powder, Fermented Comfrey and Fermented Peach. I skipped the Pure Protein Dry this time, since I just foliar fed them with it yesterday. 3/9/2023 - Day 11: Added the second layer of trellis netting. I may need to lower it, but I want to wait and see how much more they stretch. Otherwise, everything else looks great. 3/10/2023 - Day 12: lowered the trellis net today and lolipopped the girls. Also watered 6 gallons today, mixing in Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja as a wetting agent, then added TeaCo Super Tea Blend, Recharge, Rootwise Enzyme Elixer, BuildASoil Big 6, BuildABloom, Coconut Powder, Yah-Whey Thrive, and Pure Protein Dry. Today was the first sign of some preflower. 3/12/2023 - Day 14 Flower: the plants did not like something about the last watering. The newest growth is having some severe curling and I discoloring. I'm thinking it has to be either the TeaCo or Recharge, but I've never had problems with either of those before. They were the only thing different about my last watering. They will need to be watered again tomorrow, so I plan to ease up on the nutrients, and definitely will not be adding anymore TeaCo or Recharge. Hopefully they can grow out of this and it doesn't get worse!

La 4 semana de crecimiento las niñas están estupendas con un montón de baras y ramas para tofos lados y súper Robustas ya dentro de 1 semana y media entramos en floración señores

Salut les Growmies, l'installation du filet à 80 cm fait des merveilles. Les plantes sont toutes ultra vigoureuses. Le stretch va être difficilement géré. Mais comme un enfant j’attends avec impatience le résultat de cette chasse. Demain soir je lance l'opération Clones et sauvegarde des phénotypes. 11/01/2026 Derniers jours de la deuxieme semaines depuis le switch en 12/12. Je viens de decouvrir que la Tiger Paws #1 a créé des couilles . Je lui laisse une journee de chabce et je vais voir commznt les choses évoluent sinon la Tiger Paws #2 et la Velvet Cream #1 sont juste magnifiques et tres vigoureuses Sincèrement

1/15-Started developing yellow/brown spots last week. Gave first feeding of FF Trio at 1/3 strength a couple days ago but she's continuing to look worse. More spots, lack of color and droopy leaves.

10000 ml jeden 3 Tag in der zwanzigste Woche pH-Wert: 6,2 EC-Wert: 1,1 mS/cm Temperatur: 24ºC Luftfeuchtigkeit: 60% Schädlingsbekämpfung: / Düngemittel: Sie bekommen ab jetzt Brenneseljauche da sie im Outdoor Bereich ist. Besonderheiten: Wir mussten sie jetzt toppen da sie zu hoch wurde und das Dach berührte, es besteht die Gefahr von Schimmel oder das die Blätter Schlächter wachsen. -Tag 136 immer noch in vegetative Phase 😖 -Tag 137 Heute hat sie 10l Wasser mit 1l Brenneseljauche bekommen

Due to life being life (i lost three friends and my cousin in Dec 23' ) i haven't been on here at all. I have however been taking care of the plants as they have stopped me from wanting to unalive myself. As you can see shes grown into a beauty unlike my marriage which is seemingly falling to pieces as well. And unlike my ungrateful family who just calls me when they want money, this plant only calls me when she wants water and love. So everyone dont be a cheater like some spouses, just take care of your plants cause unlike some undeserving partners your plants wont leave and destroy half your stuff in the process. Good day to

Week F1: 28/03/2025 – 03/04/2025 28/03 – Light switch completed. 1L nutes. Moderate defoliation to expose bud sites. 30/03 – 1L nutes. Topped 4 main stems. Minor defoliation. 01/04 – 1L nutes. LST via net. Heavy stretching observed. 03/04 – 2L nutes. Upping water schedule to 1L every other day. I've included a video for this week, cannot wait to see how the flowering process looks!

Outdoors........time passes slowly.... Tropical weather here, this week. Hot morning, evening storms , cooler nights, high humidity, wind. What else? No problems to report, fantastic grow, girls full of life. Lots of work to bend and rearrange plant's shape every day, sometimes twice a day. Defoliation. Plant is responding fantastically. Special Kush #1 is now in the last days of crazy-stretch phase, is a big plant so I had to move the main top forward again to the opposite point of the perimeter in order to lower the line and give light in the middle.

Loving this sight…can’t wait to experience this classic.
