What's up Growmies🤟🏽. Week # 8 is in the books🙌🏾 Hello week #9💪🏾 I went a little overboard on pictures this week, they are so happy and healthy that I got carried away. I know we are supposed to post pictures with the lights off, however it's something about the contrast it gives with the lights on that makes it look sexy to me😁. I have had to tie the stalks of both White LSD plants due to heavy sagging. I'm noticing with this strain the stalks seem to topple over even though the buds are far from fully developed. A trellis net probably would be ideal however I hate them. They are easy to put on but very difficult to take off come harvest. I use garden wire and string them as if they are puppets being controlled by the puppet master🤪. I continue my feeding schedule with the recommended "bloom" concoction using general hydroponics Flora series trio. I give them 1 liter every 3 days. I have them on a 2 to 2 cycle (feed them twice with nutes and then twice with plan water) I keep the p.h. around 6.1 to 6.6. Temps and humidity are in the perfect range I'm enjoying it while it last because spring and summer in VA makes it difficult to keep the humidity in check. All in all everything is going well for me and my ladies. I hope the same for all of you. Until next week my friends Happy Growing 🤟🏽 and may the grow goddesses bless you all with a bountiful harvest 💪🏾

So das ist der letzte Beitrag zu den beiden. Es war für mich der erste Durchgang, der etwas Probleme bereitete, da meine cal/mag Werte nie wirklich stimmten aber das nie große Probleme bereitete, was ich aber schnell mit dem calmag von BioBizz wieder retten und somit eine schöne Ernte einfahren konnte. Mein Fazit zu den beiden: Special Kush: hat eindeutig größere Probleme bereitet als die Skunk, die ich aber wie gesagt wieder gut in den Griff bekommen habe. Optisch hat sie mir ehrlich gesagt im Zelt besser gefallen als die Skunk und ließ sich auch einfacher trainieren, da sie nicht so extrem geschossen ist in der Blüte. Ich muss ehrlich sagen an den Blüten finde ich leider Nix besonderes, sie sind zwar schön fest und glitzern aber Geruchstechnisch ist da nicht so viel los und das was ich rieche turnt mich jetzt nicht so an was auch daran liegen kann das sie sich gerade noch im curing befinden. Skunk XL: Eine sehr robuste Pflanze die gefühlt Nix braucht. Optisch fand ich sie erst langweilig ehrlich gesagt und so habe ich sie garnicht weiter beachtet aber natürlich genau so gepflegt wie die andere, aber da hat sich gezeigt die inneren Werte zählen, jetzt wo ich beide Blüten vergleiche merke ich das diese Pflanze viel viel mehr kann als gedacht und garnicht langweilig ist. Die Blüten haben so einen interessanten Skunk Geruch schon während des curings, sind von außen mit schönen vielen Orange-braunen Härchen überzogen und Stein hart, der Ertrag war auch sehr sehr gut. Also abschließend kann ich sagen der Durchgang hat mich gelehrt meine Wasserwerte noch mehr ans Optimum zu bringen und das der erste Eindruck einer Pflanze nicht viel aussagt manchmal merkt man erst nach der Ernte welches besser ist. 😂

Hello This is the end of week 3 and the beginning of week 4 of flowering. The plants are doing good and things are moving along as planned. The resin is starting to kick in now. You can see it in the pictures. Been working on my wood pile, Splitting wood and filling up the wood shed for this coming winter. Got about 1 1/2 cords to go before it's full. Wood heat is great. Each day the pump comes on and gives 3 minutes of nutrient solution to the plants. I showed in the video how I blast oxygen into the water before the pump turns on. The plants love the extra oxygen and it creates an aerobic environment for the friendly microbes to thrive in too. The buds will start to swell from here on in. Getting bigger and heaver. I've got the bamboo rack to hold them up. OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

24.07.2025 – 30.07.2025 🌸 Week 2 Flower — Stretch still going strong! 🌸 Plants are now in their second week of 12/12. Stretch is at full power 🚀 — some shoots almost doubled in size compared to last week. Bud sites are becoming more visible and small pistils are showing everywhere 🧡. This week I slightly increased the nutrient strength (EC ~1.6–1.7 / 850–950 ppm), adding more bloom nutrients and boosters while keeping a bit of nitrogen for the last phase of vegetative growth. 🌡️ Environment stayed steady: 27°C day / 20°C night, 60–65% RH — exactly where I want it for VPD balance. 🌿 Aroma is starting to appear when I open the tent — a sweet/fruity smell, and trichomes are spreading onto the leaves ✨. Mistake from last week (using IR too early) is now more obvious — plants stretched more than I wanted 😅. But it’s still manageable with training & airflow. 👉 From here on, I’ll slowly reduce the nitrogen and fully switch to bloom nutrition. Next week should be the true start of flower stacking.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 8 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) The lady is developing great :-). A few days ago she started stretching and will develop the first calyxes over the next few days :-). It was poured 3 times this week (sewing materials see table above). Next week I'll be removing the bottom shoots so the energy isn't wasted down on the popcorn buds. Bio Grow will also be discontinued next week and only Bio Bloom Liquid will be given 👍. Otherwise everything was cleaned and checked for health :-).

We have reached the end of week 8. All trichomes are officially cloudy, with some amber here and there. I started their flush last night and am planning to let the go 63-65 days total. I don't know what the yield will be, but to my eyes, these plants appear to be the largest I have ever grown. I am just hoping they are dense. The last round was large as well, not nearly this big, but still large. However, the density was just not there and the yield ended up disappointing a little. Hopefully this one comes through. Cannot wait for this season so be over!!

Primera semana de floración y a medida que crecen los brotes los voy pasando bajo la malla tratando de dejar los brazos más altos en las orillas, se ha regado foliarmente con delta 9 el cual se dio en dosis baja al sustrato al comenzar fotoperiodo de floración.

Week 8 Apart from having some issues with a high run off I think she’s growing ok. Although she doesn’t look very healthy at the moment. I am not sure if it’s because I left my soil tester inside the soil. In which case I’ve taken it out now to see if there’s any difference. She has yellowing leaves Burt tips and and brown spotting. I presume something isn’t right but being so close to harvest I don’t wanna set her back 2 weeks. Tomorrow morning will be day 59 going into week 9. Shall I keep feeding or just ph water it? I don’t want it to affect my yield. From one stoner to another your advice is appreciated always x peace out. Live, laugh be healthy and eat weed. Big love to all you growers. Happy new year !! 2021 let’s hope it’s the year they legalise this wonderful plant in uk. Wishful thinking but you never know aye. Cockneycultivar

This North Thunderfuck Autoflower is growing at a very rapid growth. The plant is in week 2. From seed to now the plant is 15days old. I usually top the soil twice on seedling to support the stem but this time i used a paper clip just to have support from the wind, and i left the wieght of the seedling on the stem. So the plant will grow its stem stronger which at the end it will help a lot with the yield. Big stem = big buds. I started feeding this plant early so she has a bit of a boost in the begining due thats an aoutdoor plant with just 12hrs of light from the sun.

I use all 3 General hydroponic nutrients and they are two different pot sizes the Moby Dick is in 30 liter and the blue amnesia is in 18 liters has a very strong odor and blue amnesia is maturing at a faster rate then the Moby Dick. a scrog net is being used in order to give support to the upcoming buds. I am also actually on week 4 I just made a mistake calculating the week. this is my first grow ever. also I'm not sure if using the scroll net it's a good idea for support rather than tying those branches up . I am watering every two days feeding nutes every single time at 900 to 1000 PPM ph at 6.2 the plans have not show any signs of stress but I am worried if it is too much nutrients the plant seems to grow very fast after every watering and seems to be loving it. the blue Amnesia XXL Auto it's growing in soil with 30% Coco and the Moby Dick XXL auto it's growing in hydroponic soil. the seeds were germinated on jiffy's and 100% germination rate plus the genetics seems to me very resilient to heat and everything else including lots of nutrients. the moby Dick XXL auto are the two in the front closest to the camera the two farthest to the back of the tent are the two blue amnesiaXXL auto. today day 31 i did some pruning actually lots of pruning hopefully don't cause stress to the plants or even worse cause them not to bud that nicely regardless the scrog net seems to be working just fine helping them access more light and making it easy for cutting leaves that are no longer needed. 32 yesterday after watering and sleeping today they have show no signs of stress in fact they starting to stretch in the buds that we're not getting sufficient light have start to grow also yesterday from the 16 liters I prepare instead of 3 ml of grow formula I add 6 1/2 to compensate for stress and the need of healing and having new grow stretch. also temperature has dropped dramatically outside making my house cold down from 24 degrees C to 19° at night internal temperature is remaining the same from 30 to 26 C. Day 33 I have been raising the scrog net every day and the light everyday this plant is growing very fast I also notice that where the fan is hitting all the time that plant is bigger I have been moving the fan to other sections of the grow tent to see if any reaction happens and it looks like it makes the plant grow faster . I will not be moving the Scrog net any higher Rather I will introduce another one once they require more support . Day34 notice some of the top leaves are showing a curving down like over-watering without actually over water I think they're showing signs of too much nitrogen .for the next water session I will hold back on nitrogen until I see signs of a fully recovering meaning leafs pointing up. thank you for reading have a happy grow.

***** Week 4 Veg - December 26/20 to Jan 1/21 ***** The girls were transplanted on Christmas day, after three weeks in the solo cups from seed. They had been growing well in cups but I must admit that I feel the root mass should have been larger after that time period. I am working with a new nutrient line that I have not used before and have not been adding microbes to the feed schedule thus far.........or hardly any. I feel this is why the root system, while looking healthy, is looking too small. Over the next couple weeks will ensure they get lots of microbes in the 1 gal pots to fill those up with roots before moving to 5 gal pots.......the last upsize for this girls. Counting my weeks for finish I am wishing that I had started these girls a couple of weeks sooner so they may not get to veg in the 5 gal pots for a couple of weeks before flipping to flower. For these girls it is still pretty early on in their lives and not many exciting things to happen the first month of seedlings. We have done one upsize and another to go. Keep the feeding in line and follow the week 1 veg feeding for these girls, bringing up the ppm closer to 700ppm range. Overall, happy with first couple of weeks of veg. Need to get more roots going, we will, but otherwise just give them the time to mature and take it easy......they will come along😀 Little more detail....... Dec 26/20, Day 22 Veg - Dry out day after being transplanted yesterday. - Pots were still heavy. - Let the microbes in the media do their thing and start pushing root growth harder than what has been happening. Dec 27/20, Day 23 Veg - Gave the girls a little splash of the left over nutes from two days ago to add a little oxygen and they can take the extra microbes and bacteria right now😀 - 200ml with Microbial Mass and Piranha @ 2ml/L = 650ppm and 5.7pH - They are really happy today!!!! Loving the bigger pot to let those valuable roots expand into nice fluffy new coco and soak up the nutrients👍 Dec 28/20, Day 24 Veg - feeding day today with more water to get some runoff from the 1 gal pots. They have not been watered to runoff yet. - 0.5L each girl with the full line for this week. No other additives, just the IPP line = 700ppm and 5.7pH - seems a little high to jump from around 300ppm to 700 but will follow the companies recommendations👍 Dec 29/20, Day 25 Veg - Dry out day. - they are happy today......not much to add otherwise today Dec 30/20, Day 26 Veg - going to give them another day without watering. - I feel like I should be watering today but I am not as I am not sure how much moisture they will have consumed and the roots need some air to breath so holding off. - think it is a CalMag only feeding tomorrow. Dec 31/20, Day 27 Veg - feed day today since it has been a couple of days. - 500ml with CalMag @ 2ml, Gold Storm @ 7ml, Sea Storm @ 5ml, Blackstorm @ 2ml, Vitamin B @ 0.5ml = 525ppm and 5.7pH - keeping the humic and fluvic acids going in, plus Kelp and CalMag👍 - the girls are happy and seeing forward movement everyday, looking for more aggressive though from the girls. Jan 1/21, Day 28 Veg - doing very well......like really well💪 - didn’t push them today and left them alone for watering, pots of course still had some weight and I didn’t expect them to need today. - Optic Folier Overgrow given today. Folier spray to give them just an extra boost since everything is otherwise dialed in👍 Finishing off the week very strong!!!!!! They have been looking very healthy and perky everyday. The roots are a concern and will be taking it easy on the nutrients for another week yet and keep up the microbes and beneficials. Will get them in line......my hope is too keep their time in the 1 gals down to two weeks max......maybe 10 days?? Looking pretty good ETS as we move through the first upsize. Her stems are stiffening and they are taking varying temps and humidity in the first weeks well. Feeding has been moderate to light and no signs of any issues......again, still pretty early on but its all good so far😎

Overall I'm blown away with how beautiful she turned out. A phenomenal cycle from seedling to harvest. I may have a green thumb and know my way around a pH pen, but having premium genetics to work with certainly smoothes out the path to success. Give Brother Geoff over at Happy Bird Seeds a look and see for yourself.

10/25 23 days from sprout. All are looking great. Going to wait another week before I start feeding. 10/26 Watered. Probably going to trim some fan leaves before the next watering. 10/27 Few are starting to flower. Switched from MH bulb to HPS. 10/29 Watered. Going to start Fox Farms food at a quarter strength next watering.

Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North ☃️ Part 1 — The Harvest Begins Before we begin this harvest report properly, we once again want to apologize for dividing this journey into multiple parts. Just like we did with the Legends of the 12/12 Galaxy series, the harvest, drying, trimming, curing, smoke review, and final strain analysis will happen across different weeks and different reports. But honestly… this is the only way we can truly document everything properly. We do not want to simply show the final dry buds and disappear. We want to show the process. The details. The decisions. The mistakes, the observations, the science, the emotions, the beauty, and the philosophy behind the work. Educational growing deserves time and space, and these girls absolutely earned it. So today marks the beginning of the final chapter for our Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North. And what a chapter this is. ⸻ From seed to harvest, these girls proved once again why 12/12 from seed continues to fascinate us so much. The morphology is incredibly efficient. Plants stay relatively compact compared to traditional long-vegetative runs, but what they lose in height, they repay with density, structure, resin production, and flower efficiency. The result? Compact giants. Dense towers of medicine. Heavy branches unable to support themselves anymore. Massive flowers held up by yo-yos because gravity simply started winning the battle. And honestly… this room became absolutely beautiful near the end. The senescence was fully setting in. The fade was impossible to ignore. During daytime photos and nighttime photos alike, the room transformed into a palette of autumn colors: * bright yellows, * faded lime greens, * soft oranges, * reddish and brownish tones, * curled leaves, * dry fans, * exhausted but fulfilled plants reaching the end of their biological cycle. And this is important to explain. A lot of growers panic when they see plants fading late in flower, but in many cases, especially near harvest, this is completely natural senescence. The plant understands its lifecycle is ending. Nutrients stored inside the leaves are being mobilized and redirected. Chlorophyll breaks down. Colors emerge. The plant slowly consumes itself while finishing resin and flower production. To us, this is one of the most beautiful moments in cultivation. Not death. Completion. ⸻ As always, we also harvest in darkness. Once the lights go off for the final night… they do not turn back on again. The plants remain in their night cycle until harvest. We personally prefer this approach because the plant is already in its resting metabolic state. The environment is cooler, calmer, and less stressful, and we avoid “waking the plant back up” only to cut it down shortly after. Before harvest, we also stop watering completely. We allow the substrate and the plant itself to dry naturally during the final stage. This helps reduce excess moisture inside the flowers and assists with the beginning of the drying process after harvest. ⸻ And speaking of flowers… These buds are enormous. Absolutely stacked. Rock solid. Frost-covered. Dense from top to bottom. The yo-yos became mandatory near the end because several branches simply could not support their own weight anymore. Every cola looked like it was carrying the entire weight of winter on its shoulders. Animal Mints truly lived up to its name. Frozen flowers. Heavy resin. Cold-looking trichome coverage everywhere. And despite the density, airflow management remained extremely important during the entire run. Defoliation timing, environmental control, humidity balance, and branch spacing all played a major role in making sure these flowers could mature safely without issues. ⸻ Of course, while removing dead leaves and cleaning the plants before hanging them whole for drying… something magical happened once again. Charas. That beautiful living resin slowly started building up on the fingers. And for those unfamiliar: Charas is one of the oldest forms of hashish production in the world. Traditionally associated with India and regions like Malana, charas is made by gently rubbing living cannabis flowers with the hands until the resin accumulates on the skin, later rolled into small resin balls by hand pressure alone. Unlike dry sift or modern extraction methods, charas is made from living plants. The resin is still alive, fresh, fragrant, warm, and incredibly aromatic. In places like Malana, ancient traditions surrounding charas still survive to this day. Entire generations preserved these techniques for centuries, often connected spiritually to Lord Shiva himself, who in Hindu mythology is deeply associated with cannabis. So every time we feel that resin slowly coating the gloves and fingers while handling living plants, it feels less like waste… and more like participating in something ancient. Something human. Something sacred. ⸻ The girls are now hanging whole. Full plants. Slow drying, exactly the way we prefer. For the first couple of days, humidity stays around 45% to help pull initial excess moisture away safely. After that, the environment stabilizes around: * 60% RH * 18–20°C And now begins one of the most important parts of the journey: patience. Over the next 7–10 days, chlorophyll will continue breaking down slowly, moisture will redistribute through the flowers, aromas will evolve, and the entire profile of the medicine will begin transforming. This is where harvest stops… and curing truly begins. ⸻ But this is far from the end. The next reports will focus deeply on: * drying observations, * trimming, * resin collection, * finger hash, * curing methods, * storage, * aromas, * textures, * smoke reports, * and the final strain review itself. And honestly… we still do not know how many parts this journey will require. Maybe two more. Maybe three. Maybe even four. But these girls deserve every detail. ⸻ As always, thank you to everyone following this journey and helping make these projects possible. Thank you to: * Zamnesia for the genetics, * Plagron for the nutrients and support, * F.O.G. for the lighting, * and everybody supporting this educational approach to cultivation. And of course… thank you to every grower, every reader, every silent observer, and every curious mind still exploring this incredible plant with respect, patience, and love. The Frozen North still has more stories to tell. 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 💚
