End of the mimosa, 3 plants, didnt measure te exact weight as its not gonna be accurate with the fkin seeds in my buds. Overall not a bad plant, my thoughts is that the tropicanna polinized this one so this is the best bud of all the canopys Fkin hermies

Week 12 | Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North Week 12 and the room is doing exactly what we hoped it would do. This is the part of the run where patience matters more than intervention. The structure is built. The weight is there. The resin is there. The metabolism is still active. Now the job is simple: maintain stability, reduce noise, and let the plants finish with calm. And that is exactly where this room is right now. A quick recap: 12/12 from seed For anyone new joining the diary, this run was flowered under 12/12 from seed — meaning these plants were grown under a flowering light schedule from day one, instead of being vegged under 18/6 and flipped later. That changes the entire architecture of the plant. Instead of building wide, heavily branched bushes during a long vegetative phase, the plants stay more columnar, more direct, and more apically focused. Less wasted lateral growth. Less unnecessary vegetation. More efficient top-to-bottom flower development. That’s why this run looks like this. Lean frames. Stacked tops. Excellent vertical flower distribution. And dense, productive bud sites from upper canopy all the way into the lowers. This style is not about brute force. It is about efficiency, timing, and letting the plant express itself with less interruption. Week 12: the room is finishing beautifully This week the room feels exactly like a late flower room should feel. Not loud. Not explosive. Just mature. The flowers are dense and fully formed now, with visible weight from top to bottom and clear structural consistency across the canopy. The upper tops have finished stacking and are now settling into their final shape, while the lower and mid sites continue proving exactly why the undercanopy support mattered so much in this run. That lower development is one of the biggest wins here. The undercanopy lighting did exactly what it was supposed to do: it kept the lower flower sites active, productive, and worth carrying to the finish. Instead of soft lowers and wasted interior material, the plant continued producing meaningful flower mass deeper into the canopy. Combined with the top lighting, this created a much more even distribution of usable flower across the full plant. And that shows clearly now. The room is not just top-heavy. It is productive throughout. Resin, color, and late-flower expression This week the visual changes are subtle, but important. The pistils are darkening and receding. The calyxes are swelling. The resin heads are fully formed and standing dense across bracts, sugar leaves, and surrounding surfaces. This is the part of flower where the plant stops trying to build and starts trying to finish. You can see it in the way the flowers are tightening. You can see it in the way the bracts are swelling. You can see it in the color shift — greener tissue fading into softer lime tones, deeper pistil oxidation, and the first real signs of end-of-cycle maturity beginning to settle in. Nothing dramatic. Just the plant slowly shifting its priorities. And that is exactly what we want. Feeding strategy: now just enzymes At this stage, we have stopped feeding base nutrients and are now running only Pure Zym with water. That is intentional. At week 12, the plant does not need more pushing. It does not need more nitrogen. It does not need more unnecessary input. It needs space to finish. By this point, the soil still holds more than enough residual nutrition to carry the plant through the last stretch. The goal now is not to keep forcing uptake — it is to let the plant naturally use what is already available, finish metabolically, and begin consuming what remains in the medium and in its own tissues. That is why we simplify here. No force. No excess. No chasing numbers. Just enough enzymatic support to help keep the rhizosphere active, assist in breaking down residual organic matter, and keep the medium biologically functional while the plant finishes the job. That is the role of the enzymes now. Not feeding the plant harder. Helping the system stay clean and available while the plant completes itself. Water, EC, and why less is more now Water remains simple. We are running rainwater mixed with recovered humidifier water, plus enzymes only. No pH correction. No heavy EC. No over-management. Input EC is staying extremely soft, around 0.1–0.2, just enough to carry the enzymes without unnecessarily loading the medium this late in flower. pH continues to land naturally around 6.8, and we are leaving it there. At this point, we are not interested in forcing perfect numbers on paper. We are interested in maintaining a stable root environment the plant is already happy in. And the plant is clearly happy in it. This is one of those moments where overcorrection usually creates more problems than it solves. The room is stable. The plants are functioning. So we let stable stay stable. Still drinking = still working One of the clearest signs that the room is still metabolically active is water consumption. Even this late, the plants are still drinking 1.7–1.8L per day, down slightly from the peak (~2L/day), but still very strong for this stage. That matters. Because even though the room looks like it is approaching the end, the plant is still moving water, still transpiring, still exchanging, still functioning. That means metabolism is still active. And active metabolism means the plant is still finishing properly. They are not stalled. They are not fading out prematurely. They are simply slowing down the way mature plants should. That is a very different thing. Climate: stable beats perfect Environment remains essentially unchanged because it does not need to change. Day temps around 26°C Night temps around 18°C RH around 60% Root zone around 21°C CO₂ around 1000 ppm Stable, predictable, and easy for the plants to work in. Could we push harder? Probably. Could we chase tighter numbers? Also yes. But at this stage, the return is rarely worth the extra energy, extra complexity, or extra stress introduced into an already stable room. Leaf VPD remains within a comfortable working range, the plants are responding well, and the room is balanced. That is enough. Not every decimal needs to be optimized into exhaustion. Lowering PPFD for the finish We are also beginning to reduce PPFD now as we move into the final stretch. Again, this is intentional. Late flower is not the time to keep pushing peak intensity into tissue that is already trying to mature. The bulk is built. The structure is set. Now we shift from production pressure into finishing pressure. Lowering PPFD slightly helps reduce unnecessary stress, lowers metabolic demand, and lets the plant focus more naturally on ripening rather than continued forced output. At this point, we are no longer asking for more mass. We are asking for completion. That is an important difference. Final thoughts This week is one of my favorite moments in a run. Not because it is flashy. Because it is honest. This is what the end should feel like: less intervention, more observation. less forcing, more trust. less noise, more patience. The work was already done. Now we let the plant finish saying what it was trying to say all along. Big love to everyone still following this one — the growers, the quiet readers, the long-timers, the curious ones, the skeptics, the supporters, the OGs, and even the haters. Energy moves either way. Might as well keep it good. Big love as always to Zamnesia for the genetics, to GrowDiaries for the platform, and to everyone spending time here watching this run unfold. We are close now.

Everything going ok about done but just cant get ph low enough so flushing and shell be dome by end of this week

I put the plants into an NFT system couple weeks ago. I could have waited a bit longer for the plants to develop a stronger root system before placing the rockwool cubes into NFT but I was being impatient because of the slow start and wanted to get the plants under proper light. Now two weeks later they are growing well with good root development. I switched the lights to flowering cycle about a week ago so they should start stretching soon. No preflowers yet.

One week to Go and ladies just Look amazing Bluezy Structure is Strange but rockhard Headbuds and smell is just out of this Planet Dantes Inferno is Talking the room over just massive Colas Frosted out down to the bottom Smell is tropical super Sweet Candy Tomb raider Structure is Perfect all the buds Hard Even the small ones smell is like a sour Candy Gas

Another week has passed and this lady seems to have recovered from last week's sudden problems. I just kept feeding with clear water, I suspect low PH and my solution fixed it. I also raised the light a little more, this SP 3000 is a true beast of a light, and especially the Kush in the middle couldn't handle it that well. Thank you @MarsHydroLED I did some final defoliating, only bundled up leaves and leaves covering major bud sites. This Orange Hill Special is something else though, Im happy to grow this, she is pretty and sophisticated in all, almost majestic. The buds are speckled with orange hairs, the shape of each like a round ball of ice cream. She was pretty from seedling on and looking back, I would have loved some offspring of this pheno. She is a thrill and no signs of male parts on this one, although it can happen with this strain. So glad I have some more seeds and cant wait to put a tentful of this. Don't let its low score dissuade you, yes there is a chance she hermies but when she doesn't my my my... Check em out here @DutchPassion_Official She smells of orange and tangerine with a very strong hazy undertone. This combination promises a great smoke and frankly, I cant wait. Thanks for reading up on me and thank you for the comments and likes again! Hug Bud

The week went well, no problem, no pest, no deficiency. Stable rate of growth. Everything's gravy, everything's wavy :)

Die Epic Buzz ist nicht ganz so in die Höhe geschossen deswegen habe ich Sie gleich ein wenig höher gestellt das alle Triebe die gleiche Höhe im Zelt haben. Heute habe ich gleich gelollipoppt und wieder sehr viele Blätter entfernt. Hoffentlich bleibt es jetzt beim letzten mal.

Just a couple of weeks to harvest ✊✊✊!!! The smell is increasingly hypnotic… The genetics are going perfect!! Thank you Dinafem 😍!!

The plant came down after 115 days of life, and 59 days of flower. This is the 5th Papaya Sherbert I've grown, and the 3rd one to herm. I really tried everything possible to ensure the plant was stress-free the entire grow, but it still grew pollen sacks. Thankfully, I know to expect the pollen sacks to show up in week 5-6, so I was on top of it and removed all the problem areas early. The benefit of that is that it pushed me to lollipop harder than I usually do, and I really like how it made trimming easier, and the buds generally bigger. The overall bud structure on this plant was nice, but it did start to fox tail towards the end of its life.

1/1 Germination

Going good, thinned out some. Put a better video on Instagram

This week was great the smell is very pungent, I've been giving the CO2 lights are (I believe) adequate over 200 true watts on 2 plants started with purpinator as well as adjusting the ph and dropping the temperature. And the added spectrum. Try to get to the Anthocyanins and adjust my colors

Beginning of week 7 in flower, only two more weeks left if they ripen like they did last time. Plants are beginning to smell, develop triches and fattening up. They're not going to get any taller but compared to my first grow they're double in size. It's getting really intense. I'm in there every day checking humidity (on the no defol side) and I'm starting to struggle keeping up with the feed. During lights off I've found the plants eat the most food. I topped up the res, added 25% more PK. I try to keep the plants at 700 ppm and in the space of four hours it dropped to 600 ppm (towards the end of lights off). I stopped directly loading with Calcium Nitrate and instead used a regular calmag. I'm about to go overboard with Calcium Nitrate again and bump the ppm up to 1k. Will see how far the ppm drops the next day. 17/02/20 Update: The plants are beginning to smell a lot more, it has that kind of fermenting pungent smell from a red paw paw but applied to a mango. Very sweet, it literally smells like I'm growing some kind of tropical fruit. Still struggling with the feed, I added close to 40g of calcium nitrate and the plants still dropped the ppm lower than when I boosted it. I find it really frustrating that Dual Fuel only sell as a pair. Part 2 is amazing for late flower. Potassium sulphate and Magnesium sulphate, it's the perfect PK boost and I don't know anyone other nutrient like it. The other PK boosters always have too much P. 18/02/20 Update: Still battling my plants and the efforts to keep up with them is still frustrating me. Ran out of potassium Sulphate and bought Bio Diesel Rhino K 0-0-15 as a substitute, talk about expensive but I was desperate. 19/02/20 Update: Uploaded how I pump calcium into my plants this late into flower. They eat more than what I showed daily. That's 100+ ppm of Ca everyday! I don't know how much pectin this plant has now but the Brix would have to be through the roof compared to my first grow. 20/02/20 Update: finally got the feed right for a twelve hour period. I'm using two times the amount of K any bloom booster recommends and I'm probably using ten times the amount of calcium easily. I'm also going to feed as minimal N from now on, I'd cut it out completely if I could but I rely on Micros for the macro nutrients. Spent $65 on that bottle of potash and I used a third of a bottle for one nutrient change, think I'll stick to using powered water soluble potassium sulfate. My main concern is that I won't be providing enough iron with the little Micro I'm giving it. Going to throw a couple of rustry nails into the res. I'm about to do a top up...dropping the Micro super low, putting minimal part 2 in. Along with all the fulvics, humics, kelp and other acids my ppm only sits at 244. Which gives me plenty of room to load up on calcium. Top up the mag cause what was in the part 2 wasn't enough then load K. 21/02/20 Update: The plants finally stalled and took a breather yesterday. Didn't upload any photos cause it looked the same as the day before. By the end of the evening it looked like the explosive growth started back up again and the photos from today will show it. The ppm was creeping up not down this time...finally over feeding them. Dropped the extra loading of calcium and potassium to regular bloom phase levels and bumped the chelators up instead. Update 22/02/20: plants aren't eating what they were. Ppm is remaining stable at 800. I won't dilute the res just yet. Still holding off to see if it goes up again. If it goes down I'll refeed the same formula as last time that has reduced calcium and potassium.

Veg14, transplante y riego.

This week has been good both plants are growing great with no problems in there transition to flower they jus started to stretch so I hung the 600 watt lamp at 24 in and will lower it as they flower but a very productive week so far. Gonna add nutes at the end of this week so they will have some nutes to fall back on when bud sites appear
