1/29/24 - Beginning of week. Looked good, was planning on letting it go another week but within a day the top leaves started turning yellow all over and I started seeing amber, just a few but spread out all over the plant, so last minute decision to harvest on 1/31/24.

Day late on the update, pics/vids were taken on time tho just been a crazy week of harvests and trimming and keeping up with these. I linked up with Rain Science Grow Bags on Instagram and got them to offer all my followers and friends a discount of 10% off entire order from their site with the code ' bangdang ' so if anyone is in the market for a pot upgrade use that code. I got them in the mail 3 days after I ordered. Reason I went with Rain Science is because they offer identical air flow for rapid growth as the radicle bags, just using a different material and a tighter knit so water doesnt flood out the sides during feeds and when you pick these up when the coco is dry, it wont fly all over the tent like with the radicles. They're the optimal bag for autoflowers especially. I figured out why the one stayed so short compared to the others, the base of the stem did a 360 so it's like a loop then it grew vertical.

Day 92 for this girl. Sorrie for the late update, had a little vacation. One thing about this girl is the heat is too much for he. A hps light with 30 degrees outside everyday gets tuff to bring it down. But she is going on well strong, wil be cutting her sycle short because no one wil be home this december. Next wil start the flush then hope she does well till then🔥 sofar, looking good by surviving the conditions

Day 40 from seed ( 3 in flower). To sat they had a slow start these BlackBerry are surging ahead now. Only # 2 seems to be smaller now. The pale # 3 is still gaining size with no signs of stopping at all, she has a lot of sites around her that need a pin down now they are long enough to reach pot edge.

12/12 from seed. Week 12 overall. Week 8 of flower. And this week, one Lemon Cherry Gelato came down. Not because the room was finished. Not because the cycle was over. Because sometimes the plant tells you one thing… and the jars tell you another. This wasn’t a full-room harvest. This was a selective cut — one plant, chosen carefully, taken early enough to keep the room moving and late enough to still deliver exactly what medicine is supposed to deliver. And honestly? She earned it. ⸻ 🌱 Why This One Came Down Early The room is still running. The full harvest is still ahead. But one Lemon Cherry Gelato had clearly moved ahead of the pack. Not by weeks. Not dramatically. Just enough. Enough swell. Enough frost. Enough weight. Enough maturity to justify taking one while letting the others continue. That’s one of the advantages of reading plants individually instead of treating a room like a synchronized machine. Not every plant finishes on the same day. Not every expression peaks at the same pace. And not every harvest has to happen all at once. This one came down because she was the most advanced of the room — and because the medicine shelf was starting to look a little too honest. Simple as that. ⸻ Reading Ripeness Properly This is where harvest decisions stop being about calendars and start being about observation. By week count alone, she was close. By structure, she was ready enough. By resin, she was already speaking clearly. The trichomes had begun shifting. Mostly cloudy. A few still clear. A visible touch of amber beginning to appear in select heads. That’s the window. Not “fully amber.” Not “wait until everything turns orange.” Not “harvest because the breeder timeline said so.” The real harvest window begins when clarity fades, cloudiness dominates, and the first signs of amber begin to appear. That’s where she was. Not overripe. Not unfinished. Just entering the first edge of peak maturity. Exactly where many growers prefer to cut for a more balanced effect. ⸻ 🔬 Trichomes: What They Are — And What They Are Not Trichomes are not “frost.” They are not glitter. They are not just visual appeal. And they are not there to make photos look good. Trichomes are resin glands. They are the biochemical factories of the flower — producing and storing cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and the compounds responsible for aroma, potency, and effect. What we’re watching is not sparkle. We’re watching chemistry mature. Clear heads = still developing. Cloudy heads = peak cannabinoid production. Amber heads = oxidation and degradation beginning. That does not mean amber is bad. It means chemistry is changing. More clear = less mature. More cloudy = fuller, louder, more complete. More amber = heavier, softer, often more narcotic. This plant had entered that first balanced transition. Which made her a perfectly reasonable early pull. ⸻ 🎨 Pistils, Fade & False Signals The white hairs had already begun turning. Fresh white pistils were shrinking back. Older hairs had darkened into orange and rust. That matters — but only as supporting evidence. Pistils help tell the story. They do not write the conclusion. Orange hairs alone do not mean harvest. And white hairs alone do not mean immaturity. Pistils can oxidize from age. From touch. From environment. From simple exposure. So yes — orange hairs were there. Yes — the flower had begun to visually mature. But pistils confirmed the direction. Trichomes made the decision. Color supports. Resin decides. ⸻ ️ The Cut And she was no lightweight. Big frame. Thick branching. Dense internals. Heavy tops. A trunk that did not come down politely. This was one of those plants you feel immediately when the scissors hit the stem. Tough wood. Strong vascular structure. Real weight in the hands. The kind of plant that reminds you very quickly that yield starts in structure long before it ends in flower. By the time she hit the studio, she already looked like what she had become: A full, heavy, mature plant with serious density, strong resin production, and enough mass to justify taking her early without regret. ⸻ 📸 Studio Work & Breakdown Instead of hanging the full plant intact, we took her to the studio and broke her down properly. Document first. Harvest second. Full plant shots. Top structure. Side profile. Bud architecture. Stem thickness. Trichome detail. Then the cut. Rather than dry her whole, she was broken down branch by branch and flower by flower, then transferred into the drying rack. That choice was simple and practical. A full-plant hang is beautiful. But a controlled rack dry gives better space efficiency, faster organization, and easier handling when the goal is immediate personal medicine. So this one was processed clean, sectioned carefully, and laid to dry in the rack inside the drying tent with steady air exchange and indirect circulation. No air blowing directly on flowers. No aggressive drying. No rushing the final stage. Just controlled moisture loss, clean airflow, and patience. Now she dries. ⸻ 🍋 Lemon Cherry Gelato, Week 12 from Seed And she delivered. Dense flowers. Heavy resin. Strong structure. Excellent frost. Real weight. Real presence. Could she have gone another week? Probably. Two? Possibly. Would she have gained more? Maybe. But that does not make this cut wrong. It makes it intentional. And intentional harvests are rarely mistakes. ⸻ 📘 Quick Recap — How We Got Here 12/12 from seed. No wasted veg. No unnecessary recovery. No overcomplication. A stable environment. Consistent feeding. Strong genetics. Controlled structure. Patience where it mattered. Intervention only when useful. She got here the same way most good plants do: Not through force. Through consistency. Week by week, she stacked. Flower by flower, she built. And by Week 12 from seed, she gave enough to justify the blade. ⸻ ⏭️ What Comes Next This diary continues. And that matters. GrowDiaries does not handle staggered harvests especially well, which means this is not marked as “harvest week” yet — because the full run is still active, and the second Lemon Cherry Gelato is still standing. So the final harvest report comes later. This is the first cut, not the final chapter. The second Lemon Cherry Gelato remains in the room and keeps pushing. She is not ready yet. She is close. But not yet. She’ll get a few more days. Nutrition will be cut completely next week. Then we let her finish the story in her own time. Same week. Same diary. Different finish line. And that’s the reality of growing plants instead of timelines. ⸻ 🤝 Thank You To the long-time followers. To the new ones. To the quiet readers. To the loud supporters. To the skeptics. To the lovers.

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.

August 15th water August 16th nothing August 17th the weather is better so im not sure if i want to leave this plant on the balcony or if i will put her on the roof again, but at the moment in the 15 liter pot shes getting bigger and bigger, so maybe i will just finish this one on the balcony and accommodate the roof better August 18th first 'hairs' appeared 😁 we also watered August 19th nothing August 20th nothing: but it seems that the plant likes the guanokalong nutrients, no signs of deficiency or overfeeding! August 21th: water

Non pensavo che queste Fast Flowering potessero crescere così velocemente! E sono curioso di vedere come prenderanno spazio le radici ora che le ho travasate nei loro vasi finali! Anche qui le piccole macchie sulle foglie sono di zeolite pure 10 micrometri di Dogma Organics e il terriccio è stato preparato con il loro 4 componenti Super Soil che è una vera bomba…diversi guani, letame bovino, micorrize, vermi compost arricchito con acidi umici e fulvici, Cal Mag fatto di rocce triturate meccanicamente, ceneri arboree e febacee tritate ecc…ditemi voi se non è un Super Terriccio questo!? In attesa delle prossime settimane 👀

Some of you may have wondered: Why do I use CO2 at average 950 ppfd μmol/m2/s (moral flow)? The answer is quite simple. Because of lack of space in some regions of my cultivation area, I simply cannot keep the ideal distance to my Sanlight high-performance lamp, due to some height growth of various strains. And so some of the main colas have ppfd values of 1250 μmol/m2/s and even more... So this is how I manage to achieve and compensate for such high radiation levels even with a CO 2 balance. And I have to say, my strategy to avoid various light stress symptoms works just fabulously. In combination with CO 2 implementation, my babies are simply unbeatably insensitive to light. Thats it! Beginning of 3rd week flowering: Again feeding my babies by 36 hours fermented potions of Bio Tabs Kompost Tea PK-Booster (15 g pro Liter) and added: 5ml Orgatrex/Liter 1 Spoon of Bactrex 1 Spoon of Mycotrex 1 Spoon of Mycco-Vital 1 Spoon of Dynomyco A little tip for those who are interested in small modifications that have a big difference or influence - on the result - effect - beauty - health - taste! Before adding microorganisms or beneficial bacteria or Mycorrizae and Trichodermas, please use oxygen-saturated water. On the one hand, unwanted chlorine gases evaporate and the small world of the microbiome becomes even faster and more rewarding in compost tea to sprout. Last but not least for this week, I would like to introduce my reasons, why I prefer growing biologically and sustainably. First of all, it’s something which suits very well in these times/days we are living now. Sustainability is a big need and task for our planet. 🌎 Nature means life. Our home, the air we breathe and everything that surrounds us. Not just today. Hopefully tomorrow as well. Maybe I'm starting to protect our environment on a small scale, but maybe I can also make a big difference at all. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change... I thought about what’s the difference, between Mineral Feeding and Super Soil Feeding. It’s very easy. Biologically Growing is a similar process than the natural soil activities out there in the lap of nature’s. So plants has to work and interact with the microorganisms and microbiomic communities in the soil. So the plants will never get lazy like the lazy ones of mineral feeding growers. If you grow biologically, you will feed the soil first and the microorganisms will support every parameter next to your plant conditions. And that will generate an unbelievable spectrum of Terpenes and Trichomes you will never forget. It’s the same comparison, when you daily visit McDonalds and you eat only fast food. How does your body and mind react on this shit for money?!?! May I invite you to think about it… See you next week dear Growmies! Have a nice Weekend and take care… Peace out! Addendum for Day 53: At the moment we unfortunately have another winter onset here in Germany. This means that I am forced to take additional heating measures due to structural facts in order to be able to keep the temperatures constant. After all, just tonight the thermometer climbs again to -1 degree Celsius. In addition, my exhaust air system runs out of my bedroom terrace and I therefore grow winter and summer with the patio door open. Well, sometimes I experience real weather-related challenges. But all in all, no problem... "Where there's a will, there's a way." Addendum to pouring out the fermented PK tea: I always administer half a liter of lukewarm aerated water with 3.5 ml of cannazyme per liter to each plant. This means that the "root machine" is not supplied with supplies unprepared and the nutrient solution can thus also be better distributed in the soil. Since I also work with cloth shoes, I spray them evenly moistened everywhere with water that is also warm before pouring them out from the outside. This has the advantage that the moisture stays where it should: in the pot! ... I did the math today ;-) We are still in week 7 until this Friday. And week 8 starts on Friday! OMG... still so much time yeahh! Today my Fast Buds Sour Jealousy and Sweet Seeds Big Devil and Dark Devil Automatics arrived. I'm looking forward to it. This time Fast Buds next Time Sweet Seeds. Love them too. Very beautiful genetics. Today a review video of the beginning of week 3. At the time of the pictures, I had minor signs of nitrogen excess. (Light peaks first at the crown of the roof and then slightly continuing to the middle section.) I then painstakingly racked my brains as to why this could be. I found that very slight dry spots had formed and therefore the root found small accumulations of nitrogen that caused its problems. But then, when I carefully homogeneously checked the moisture content in the substrate, the problem evaporated again. However, they had not shown any loss of growth rate during this time. Nevertheless, they developed as expected. They Strawnanas had no problem with that. In the end, I always have a hard time killing them. But I guess that's the way things go. We live and die. We come and go. But it's not there yet. ;-) Tomorrow is day 56. Tomorrow’s updating day! Can't wait to see their progress. Have a good time and see you tomorrow… 🏽🕊️ 🏽 ☮️🕊️

After the second week of beginning of flowering. I eliminated the BIOGROW and I slightly increased the BIOBLOOM AND Topmax.
