Not much to say. Buds developing nicely. Just the stems tied lightly away from center letting more light and air into the middle. Im really happy with the look so far.

Flowers are developing nicely but slowly. Very few feeder leaves are turning yellow yet. I saw some webs between one of her branches and Lemon Cake. So I sprayed them with alcohol and burned some leaves. She and L. Cake have the same dense bushy structur. The buds are tight to the stems which traps humidity and moisture. Inviting pests and fungus.

Planted the seed straight into the medium, water was PH’d before given to 6.3 and humidity dome placed over the top.

Week 13 from seed. Week 9 of flower. And this one matters. Not because everything changed overnight — but because this is where the run starts showing its final intentions. One plant came down, one plant keeps going, and both are teaching something different. This week marks the point where observation becomes more important than intervention. The work is mostly done now. What happens here is less about pushing, and more about reading. Watching. Letting the plant finish saying what it has to say. From seed to now, this run has stayed simple on purpose. 12/12 from seed, steady environment, minimal overcorrection, and a consistent approach from start to finish. No chasing numbers, no dramatic swings, no last-minute magic tricks. Just stable inputs, careful observation, and letting the cultivar express itself without interruption. And that is exactly what this week reflects. One of the two plants was harvested this week — not because she was clearly ahead, and not because the other was behind, but because this stage offers a rare opportunity to compare expression across harvest timing. Same cultivar, same room, same feed, same environment — slightly different finish line. That is useful information, especially when the goal is not just yield, but understanding the medicine at different stages of maturity. This is less about “ready” and more about reference. One plant comes down now to show what this cultivar offers at this point in ripeness. The second stays standing to show what another few days may add, remove, or transform. That kind of side-by-side tells more than any chart ever will. The room itself remains unchanged and stable. Conditions are still exactly where they have been: controlled, calm, and predictable. No changes to the environment, no major changes to irrigation, and no attempt to force a finish. At this stage, consistency is the strategy. Feeding is now reduced to enzymes only. No base nutrients, no boosters, no extras — just enzymes and water. At this point, the plant is no longer building aggressively. She is finishing. Enzyme-only irrigation helps break down residual organic matter in the substrate, keeps the root zone active and clean, and allows the plant to continue consuming what it has already stored internally. This is not about “flushing” in the old dramatic sense. It is simply about removing excess input and allowing the plant to finish on what it already carries. And she is using it beautifully. This is where the fade begins to tell the truth. The shifting leaf color isn’t decline — it is redistribution. Nitrogen is being pulled, chlorophyll is breaking down, stored resources are moving, and the plant is redirecting what remains into final reproductive output. That is why the greens soften. That is why purples begin to appear. That is why red tones start surfacing through senescence and cooler expression. This is the plant using herself completely. And visually, she is doing it with style. There is color now in every direction — softened greens, faded lime, muted reds, touches of purple, and that late-flower pale glow that only shows up when a plant is actually finishing instead of just aging. The flowers are dense, compact, and fully formed. Resin is heavy. Structure is holding. Light still catches everything. The room is shining. Both plants are carrying weight well. Dense tops, compact flowers, strong stacking, and resin coverage from crown to lower sites. No loose finish, no empty tops, no weak lower structure. Even now, late into flower, she still looks composed. The harvested plant came down thick. Big structure, strong frame, dense flower, and stems with enough development to show those hollow internal channels that often appear in vigorous, well-fed, fast-moving growth. Frost coverage is heavy, texture is compact, and she carried herself like a proper finisher from top to bottom. She is now drying in a rack rather than hanging whole — not as a stylistic choice, just a practical one. Space dictates workflow sometimes, and good growing means adapting without romanticizing process. Same plant, same finish, different drying logistics. The important part is controlled handling from here. And during harvest, she gave a little extra. Fresh finger resin from harvest always deserves its own note. What collects on the fingers during live harvest is not the same material as what comes later during dry trim. Similar in origin, different in state. Fresh harvest resin is live expression — warm, volatile, aromatic, soft, and immediate. It is closer in spirit to charas in the traditional sense: resin gathered from living plant material by direct contact, long before modern processing tried to standardize everything. That matters, because what is collected in that moment still carries a different volatile profile than what comes later from dry trim. Dry trim finger hash is still resin. Fresh harvest finger resin is living resin. They are related, but they are not the same conversation. And for people who have never paid attention to that difference, this is one of those details worth learning once and never forgetting. The second plant remains standing, and she is still earning her place. Still dense. Still shining. Still building. Not dramatically, not explosively — just quietly continuing. And that is the point now. Late flower is no longer about visible daily change. It is about subtle shifts. Trichome maturity. Water behavior. Leaf surrender. Aroma transition. Hidden risk. Final swelling. This is where “not doing much” becomes one of the most active parts of the entire cycle. Because this is the stage where small mistakes matter most. Now is when you watch for ripeness. Now is when you watch for overstay. Now is when you watch for mold that never comes. Now is when you watch for trichomes instead of pistils. Now is when restraint becomes part of the skillset. She may come down next week. She may ask for a little more. That decision will not be made by calendar — it will be made by what the plant says next. And that is where we leave her. One harvested. One still speaking. Both worth listening to. Big love to everyone following this run — old heads, new eyes, silent watchers, loud supporters, curious growers, skeptics, believers, and everyone who gave this diary even a second of attention. To the GrowDiaries platform. To the community. To the people who watch closely. To the ones who question everything. To the ones who just came for pretty flowers and stayed for the process. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the feed. To the gear keeping the room steady. To the people behind the brands. To the growers behind the screens. And to both plants for doing exactly what they were supposed to do. Week 13. Week 9 flower. One down. One still glowing. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

First of all, a big thank you to @BeanswithPork. He gifted this cultivar to my dad, who has a special place in his heart for Blackjack the game. Secondly, I am blessed to have such great results for my first grow ever. This plant was grown under the guide of my dad @Budxs and I learned a bunch from hi m this year. I have just smoked the first taste of this after a weks cure and I can rank it up there with some of the best weed I have ever smoked in my life. The taste is just perfect, citrusy and a bit fruity. The high is immediate and seems to be uplifting and makes me giggle. I live this stuff and I will grow more!!! Thank you to all for following, it has been a blast.

SUNDAY 5/19: I accidentally left my UV timer in the "ON" position all night and half of the next day...fearing sudden death, I have moved everybody that was almost ready into the dark tent, including the most advanced Candy Cane x C4 and will start harvesting them tomorrow..maximum UVB stress for about 20 hours...if it works out that they are even more potent than expected without turning brown overnight, I'll claim it was "intentional," and purport it as an "advanced technique" 😉 MONDAY: The big one still looks fine after the mega-UVB incident , so she's still sitting in the dark. I flipped on the green light and went into the tent for a sniff test on everybody. She smells more like a C4 than a Candy Cane...a delightful aroma! The others have just about dried out..I'll probably start flushing a couple of them tomorrow and just water the others. TUESDAY: I harvested and wet trimmed CC4 #2 today. She wasn't very big, but her buds are ultra-dense and stinky. I also harvested the big one today(CC4#3) and hung her to dry in the dark tent. I decided to go ahead and flush everybody else today for the first time. I lowered the lights in the big tent several inches and set the light cycle back to 20/4, plus they are still getting hammered by the UVB for 6 hours of the day in 2 x 3-hour intervals. WEDNESDAY: I semi-wet-trimmed CC4 #3 and forgot to take photos..will do it when they are dry, prior to weighing and jarring it up. CC4 #1 was dry today, so I took some photos of the dried buds prior to weighing it and jarring it up. She weighed in at 66 grams after removing the excess lumber. She's very frosty, but her buds are a little bit fluffier than I like. THURSDAY: The last several CC4's will be flushed for the second time tomorrow. 2 more of the harvested plants will get weighed and jarred up tomorrow, but the other two will still need another day or two to dry. FRIDAY: I decided to wait to flush til tomorrow. I didn't have time today, so I'll weigh and jar up a few plants tomorrow. I just stuck the dry ones into some 2-gallon jars with boost 62's for now. I'm seeing about 20-25% amber trichomes on a few of them. They should be capable of putting me on my ass for a while. I killed the first few with just a couple ambers here and there, and the next two with about 5-10%, so I should have a pretty good sampling from them to know what it has and hasn't to offer. Glad I chose to grow these accidental F1 hybrids...muah hah hah hahhhh...😆 SATURDAY: I flushed the last 4 x CC4's with 3 gallons of ph-adjusted spring water today(and the remaining 4 other plants of different strains...my back is killing me..) and took some photos. Their foliage got pretty burnt from the mega-UVB overexposure incident, so I'll my work cut out for me with the trim..but damnit..they are getting super frosty and stinky!😋 I ran out of time, so didn't get around to weighing and jarring the dried plants. So, I just continued the cure in their big jars for the day.

This week is going well, steady bud growth and development. Thc looks great and plants one of the girls looks about a month from finishing. Lowered light intensity I have no more space to place the light further away! Plants stressed quite a bit got foxtailing on some of the buds and leaf "canoeing" let's see now how she reacts with less light.

Space finally opened up, so the Haze plants are officially in their long-term homes: 3-gallon pots with a coco and perlite mix. Haze 2 looked great initially but hit a brief patch of transplant shock. Thankfully, she has fully bounced back. Interestingly, she threw out double branches from the first node, but her growth returned to normal branching by the third. Haze 1, on the other hand, is much bushier and is already showing female pre-flowers. I’ve taken clones and flipped the tent to flower. The plants are currently sitting at 16 inches from the substrate line in a 2x4x6 tent. Given the legendary Haze stretch, I fully expect to have to relocate them before flower is over. Environmentally, I’m running a 4” exhaust but have a 6” on standby in case temps spike. Right now, with the lights only pushing 55% to hit around 800 PAR, heat is completely manageable. I also set up a timelapse with my Wyze cam, which I’ll share in the next update if it works out.

Ummm... get Advanced Nutrients. The amazing difference is differently amazing. I can't say anything bad about GHE, it's just insanely better than over here on the Advanced Nutrient side of things. Noticeable differences in 3 days. If you have any questions, send me a message. I've done a ton of research on Advanced Nutrients and can basically tell you "what's what" in comparison to GHE and save you a couple bucks. Knowledge is power, friends! I'm still using my GHE Diamond Nectar in-place of Advanced Nutrients Rhino Skin until the bottle is gone. It's all humic acid, no big deal. I'll change to AN when I'm done. My buds are purple. Never in a million years would I have guessed I got purple genetics on my first grow. We'll see if they stay around! Defoliation: Only larger fan leaves to open canopy. Day 46 - 8/12: We had a huge storm that did not knock our power out, luckily. All of the girls are thriving and tomorrow I receive the remaining nutrients. They are going fucking bananas. Temps are 77s and humidity is 45-55. Perfect. Day 47 - 8/13: Holy fuck.

I finally received the new 1000w Spider farmer new light, the AC infinity extractor and the humidifier, I’m loving them and also the plants. I moved the light to 18 inches same intensity 50%, they are grown very fast, I’m really excited. I also did water changes to all of them and I’m now using 4 ML of hydrogen instead of 3 ML. I ordered Root drip of FF but looks like they are in back ordered, will see when it arrives.

These Blue dream matic Autos are gonna be some absolute monsters! Here we are at 37 days and were sitting at almost a week into flower, qnd the plants are over 17 inches tall. Looking at a great yielding strain here! Starting to get a good amount of smell to them! Super healthy plants, and super heavy stalks. First round of nutrients came at 35 days. They were moved to the hps at 32 days. General hydro, flora trio at 5ml each per gallon. They EXPLODED overnight. This week, i will begin some light lst and defoliation. Also, this week I will be hanging my brand new HLG Diablo 650R. These 5 blue dreams will be moved from the hps to the Diablo.

hellooo growers,❤️ crazy week last week, from police helicopter flying again around and near my growlocation from diffrent hights but not for 15min but more like 6 hours...That's really abnormal so we will see... and with growing last week was a heavy one because I had my first fungus gnats infestation ,(mystery where they come /came from I think some teleportation lol ) it started really slow but within couple of days it was not a couple but dozens so that was not funny, with some research I came 2the conclusion yellow sticky papers/plates and canna cure was not solving the problem but more running behind the problem.. so that was a mistake.. I read about mites and little nematodes , fascinating stuff, I know very little about them and they where a eye opener on a lot of different ways. love to learn new things.. I think the infestation did some damage in slow grow but I'm not sure because I never grew amnesia auto before and this is my second grow in total so.. but after a couple of days after I released the nematodes and mites i saw i huge diffrent in flying around gnats, and now 11-12 I only saw 2 or 3 in total last 3 days so that's great! the smell is strong already a fine sweet but strong present aroma with a hint of citrus smell, amazing... now and then I close my eyes and focus on the great smell it gives and sometimes with fascination thoughts.. 12- 12 I see already some of the girls are growing very good now so that's great to see I give the lady's all 700ppm from canna call/mag agent 20ml a 15 L or Atami callmag 20ml a 15L Canna A& b 35ml a15L rhizotonic 25ml a15L cannazyme 25ml a 15L BAC sillica power 5ml a 15L canna cure spray every 3the day lights power draw is 150watt of 480w quantom boards and the viparspectra p4000 also 150watt and the rubol Josephine 50 watt farRed cob is always on 50watt stay tuned new updates in progress!
