🌱 LSD — Week 4 Veg Report (Mixed Light Histories) Quick recap for anyone joining us here at Week 4 In this run, not all plants followed the exact same light timeline early on — and that’s why we’re now seeing two distinct expressions inside the same grow, under the same current conditions. This is intentional, educational, and incredibly valuable to observe. ⸻ 🌸 The Early-18h Plant — Signs of Flower Initiation One of the plants spent a few weeks under 18 hours of light before joining the rest. Now, at Week 4, she’s clearly showing early flowering signals: • First pistils appearing • A subtle but visible shift in posture and energy • That unmistakable “I’m ready to bloom” attitude She looks beautiful — relaxed, confident, and eager to express herself. This is not stress. This is timing. What’s happening here? The earlier extended vegetative light allowed her to mature physiologically faster. Once environmental cues aligned, she was simply ready. She wants to be free. She wants to flourish. And she absolutely will. ⸻ 🌿 The Others — Classic Veg Growth, Right on Track The rest of the plants are behaving exactly as expected for Week 4 veg: • Up to 6 nodes • Clear branching initiation • Very uniform structure across individuals • No visible flowering signs yet They are lush. Deep, healthy greens. Leaf structure is expressive and full of character — a strong genetic signature showing itself clearly now. You can already tell: this is good genetics, handled with respect. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Nutrition (Unchanged, Dialed-In) Everything remains consistent across all plants: • Nutrition: unchanged, same recipe for all • Watering: same rhythm and inputs • Room temperature & environment: stable • Temperature: ~25.7 °C • Relative Humidity: ~60% • CO₂: ~666 ppm • PPFD: increased slightly this week • Now sitting around 600–700 PPFD, depending on plant size and proximity to the light • Roughly +100 PPFD compared to last week, adjusted naturally as the canopy rises This is a key point worth repeating: 👉 Different expressions are coming from timing, not from different treatment. ⸻ 🧠 Why This Matters (and Why It’s Beautiful) This week is a perfect live lesson in: • How light history influences developmental timing • Why plants in the same room can behave differently — without anything being wrong • How consistency allows genetics to speak clearly Nothing is forced here. Nothing is rushed. We’re simply listening. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank-you to everyone following along, observing, learning, and respecting the process. This diary isn’t about perfection — it’s about understanding, patience, and appreciation for the plant. The girls are shining.

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.

Fotos del día 60: Fase final de engorde de las flores, trabajada con bombastic (línea de nutrientes mexicana). Resaltaron más olores, no se describir bien los terpenos pero es una mezcla de lavanda, con tonos florales dulces. Siguen apareciendo colores entre morados y rojos pero no resaltan mucho.

Fun to grow and took to lst and supercropping very well. I am keeping a mother of the stinkiest pheno I got. I made some other seeds that I will be growing out after Jinxproof's pheno hunt. I will be doing a few grows coming up here and its going to be gnarly! Stay tuned in for modern genetics that have been tested and stabilized. These were bag seed from regular seed of LA confidential given to a friend that won them in a giveaway from DNA Genetics.

Well tied the girls down some more and did some FIM here and there. Expecting growth to explode once the plants have finished making new roots, and the microbes get their wheels rolling on all the amendments. Then out the door they go into the pot patch.

This is going to be a scattered Summer, as I have had enough with plants being stolen from my property 2 years running. So I am sharing Pheno's this summer with Friends and Family, throughout this local area... My seed-gathering hit a spectacular spell this winter, and there are simply not enough years left to grow all of the Treasures I have acquired. And there are some juicy specimens. For the purposes of maximizing a single diary, I am going to check in with and keep a loose running diary on these 8 selected Phenotypes. They are all going to be following a set routine, unlike any previous grows. Pre-loading the soil in the outdoors location will be the Norm, it’s something I have never done. Using specific Soil Amendments and Mulch applications will be new ground for me, as these are all proven and successful steps to take, in producing Nutrient rich Soil and a fully developed plant at harvest. People: I love talking with people here on G.D., such as those right here and many more; DeFharo, LegacyMarketFarm, Roberts, DissNoof, HighRoller909, Ferenc etc. (I know I should have your name right here too lol ) Thanks everybody for the words & assistance in the past and I'm sure you will all hear me Squealing when/if the shit hits the fan. I feel this is already on its way to be a wonderful experience this summer. Mostly this will be grown in the boonies, virgin ground on the edge of a certain Farmers Field, with the Farmers consent. And the path he has cleared for us... Just put the 30+ seeds in water a couple days ago, all the seeds in Dirt within 48 hours of each other. We'll see which ones make it and which ones get replaced... awaiting sprouts to Pop through, I wanted to get this set-up and have it waiting. Sending out Best Wishes to all the Brothers n Sisters getting ready for a Big Summer. - Mar 25th a.m., 21 of 40 have sprouted... by Noon there were 24/40 and the obvious ones with Open leaves... had their first Foliar mist at lights out. Kelp Meal is next to be added to the Foliar. Will wait for a bit more development & participants Mar 26th, Lots of activity overnite as Now, 35 of 40 seeds have broken through Mar 27th - Foliar Mist @ lites-out (a.m.) Foliar pH = 5.9 - transplanting healthy plants into 1 gal pots starting tonight as they are ready - Soil in the 1 gallon Pots will be the existing mix with the agitated addition of Azomite, Kelp Meal, “2 oz of old dried-up weed” and some diluted RapidStart - a week ago today, 33 seeds were put in water. Another 7 were added the next day… its a nice way to wrap up germination-week up. Still a few seeds in that crazy survival mode… alls good though - finishing Germination week tonight by moving this gang into 1 gal pots. - pre-soaked next soil ahead of Transplanting; 1 gal h2o pH 6.3 ~ 36 - 40gal soil - DynoMyco introduced to Bulk Soil and mixed well. Each seedling will have it sprinkled on its roots and into it’s destination pot (1st time using it)

Rolling along and she is blowing up. Starting to see some pistils at a few of the nodes, so Im waiting for the stretch to begin. Once I can single out the dominant tops, I'll strip some of the lower bud sites to focus her resources on making big flowers, reducing the larfy sites and also improving airflow through the plant...every little bit helps. She still has a couple really crinkly leaves that are slower growing, which has me a little baffled, but either way, I'll continue to push her to the limits with this MegaCrop medley and I'll hit the bloom switch on the light so she can go all in for the next 50 days or so. Tell me who does more with a one gallon DWC in a 16"x16" tent... Top level savagery with these Groloponics!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone, and above all, a fantastic new year of growth with monsters, plants, unicorns, and all the magical beings we love. ** This week, mostly just grow tent photos, so you don't miss any updates over the holidays. Our Nectar Drip #3 is growing beautifully and healthily. It's not a giant in terms of characteristics or technique, but it looks very interesting. It's been trimmed and will be flowering in 7-10 days. Selected Techniques - This plant will grow with a classic main lining but without the traditional lst application that spreads the plant across the pot. This is only because the plant, or rather this phenotype, has very short internodal spacing and hardens quickly, risking cracking. So, a healthy classic main lining (topping mainfolding 3 internodes topping x2 and then x4, maybe if the plant goes well). We're 100% organic and 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we've chosen is the recently launched Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to get our growing process off to a smoother and more reliable start, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week is more than enough, so don't overdo it. We're in the early stages of the vegetative phase, but we're well-equipped with nutrients and additives. We've added: - Power Roots 1 ml/l - Pure Zym 1 ml/l - Silic Rock 1 ml/l - CalMag Pro 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal 1 ml/l - Alga Grow 5 ml/l Once a week as a foliar spray: - Vita Race 5 ml/l Choose your preferred style and calculate the results on the website: www.plagron.com Our new 720W Spider King lamp from Vanguard Hydroponics is still set to the lowest setting. Visit the new Growshop area on the Zamnesia website: Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/531-growshop Crazy, it was sold out, it was a limited edition! Try another one: the shop is full! Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/35-semi-cannabis T - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/35-semi-cannabis/745-tical Z - Nectar Drip is a unique cannabis hybrid created in collaboration between Zamnesia Seeds and TICAL. These flowers are pure power, with up to 26% THC and effects that stimulate the mind and stabilize the body. But if you want to try them, you'll have to hurry: only 750 packs are available! There's nothing better than a good collaboration: we know that better than anyone! For this partnership, we joined forces with TICAL to create a strain packed with flavor and potency. We brought our delicious Apple Fritter, while TICAL contributed its 24K Gold Fangs. After perfecting the result, Nectar Drip was born. This strain produces potent flowers with a THC content of up to 26%, accompanied by delicious fruity and skunky aromas. Considering one of its parents is Apple Fritter, you can be sure that Nectar Drip has inherited a burst of fruity aromas and flavors. Skunky notes are also noticeable, creating a rich and intriguing profile. When you smoke this beauty, you'll feel relaxed, with a pleasant cerebral buzz accompanying the experience. It's definitely a great evening smoke, perfect for when you want to take a moment for yourself. You know it, but I recommend it. You'll find so many wonderful things here, essentially "all the best that nature has to offer." Z - www.zamnesia.com // Music // www.radionula.com + Feng Shui Music + Frequencies 432 Hz

It was a quick trip, this very voracious HighCloudZ auto grew at the speed of light, it produced lots and lots of flowers, I foresee a 70-80 grams dry and without stakes. Harvested on 9 weeks, naturally it was harvested at the beginning of the harvest period when the trichomes on the flower started to turn amber, the ideal period would be between 20% and 70% of the trichomes amber I harvest very often at Let's start guys, mold on the tops is my fear. This time she sucks. All the flowers are covered in exquisite resin, I smoked the bubble hash and was very very happy. It has three large main buds full of medium-compact flowers, other fairly full lateral branches and something smaller underneath. Very satisfied with this young lady indeed. The appearance is classic, it is not that kaleidoscope of colors that we are used to seeing, it is a normal and beautiful green and red and crystallized grass. Video dedicated to the King of West Coast Snoop Doggy Dog, a true pillar for cannabis culture, the spread of truth and awareness in the world and among common people. We know that you have stopped smoking, hopefully never with weed of course for emotional reasons but in any case thank you forever in the hall og absolute hunger with those who have done good for this culture. Let's be clear, he's not dead but if a king like that stops, everyone has to bow down. >>> One of the latest Watermelon based GHSC autoflowerings released... https://shop.greenhouseseeds.nl/feminised-cannabis-seeds/high-cloudz-audio/ >>> My favorite feeding at the moment https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/ Feeding Details >>> With the beginning of flowering, the fantastic BioBloom from Greenhouse feeding was added. The peculiarity of this fertilizer is the sprinkling in dressing mode at the beginning of the flowering phase, super really. Always follow the directions on the package and add for long blooms. >>> Music of the week ALL DISCOGRAPHY OF THE SUPER KING SNOOP DOGGY DOG.

como preventivo aplique tierra de diatomea via foliar. solo realice un apical por variedad de semilla ya que las otras aun según mi criterio les faltaba. se espera realizar la otra semana apical en las otras dos para dejar 2 sin manejo para comparar.

Esta cosecha fue muy buena con excelentes resultados de flores muy compactas y demasiado resinosas , la genética en sí es muy resinosa con olor muy característico , con sabores terrosos muy marcados .

Esa familia, siento actualizaros tarde pero esta es la última semana de crecimiento de las Blueberry cheese de zambezaseeds. Estos ejemplares están bastante sanos y vigorosos el color que tiene es un verde intenso, eso es bueno,siento las fotos con el foco pero es que es cuando abro el armario. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Bueno las maximas de temperatura no superan los 25 grados y las mínimas no bajan 19, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/60% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo poco más la verdad ya con ganas de empezar la floración , buenos humos 💨💨💨
