Now for Wk8, even after all that DEFOLIATION and LST on Wk7 it don't look like it all. It took me 3 hours, to do all that work. I wanted to wait at least 2 weeks before another around of defoliation and lst but now it's every week 😪. Do I DARE say the other 2 plants are catching up to Garganchula? I will say I had 1 big 1 medium and 1 small. Now I got 1 large and 2 medium plants. I want 1 more month of VEG, to allow the other 2 plants to catch up but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to slow down Garganchula (big plant name). Let's see if WK9 Garganchula play nice and grow SLOWLY and allow her other siblings (didn't name them yet) to catch up. Garganchula 1300ppms 2 other plants 1700ppms each

Moin moin. Ich hoffe allen geht es gut der Grow läuft wie von selbst die Damen sind durstig und haben ein gutes Wachstum (stretch) musste hier und da mal die arme der Damen korrigieren um sie auf gleicher Höhe zu halten jetzt ist das Zelt ziemlich voll geworden und ich kann nicht weiter nach aussen ziehen deshalb lasse ich sie jetzt wachsen hab ja noch ein wenig platz nach oben. Über die Woche hinweg hab ich die Damen langsam auf 50cm Entfernung zu der Lampe aufsteigen lassen seid gestern also 27.07.23 sind sie exakt auf 50 cm die kommende Woche werde ich das gleiche machen um auf 40 cm runter zu gehen Ach ja bevor ich es vergesse ich habe mich entschieden die Lampe auf 75% zu belassen das sind immer noch 360 Watt Leistung an LED Lampe die ziemlich gut den qm ausleuchten somit sollte ich die Lampe wie eine 400 watt Ndl behandeln können habe mir auch eine app fürs handy besorgt um ppfd Werte zu bekommen aber die Dinger sind ja unkorrekter als der dealer von der strasse 😂😂😂 weshalb ich mir im nächsten jahr mal so ein messgerät zulegen werde sonnst gibt es nicht viel zu erzählen euch nen schönes Wochenende!!!

Harter ritt diese Dame , alles viel zu schwer das es gleich umknickte beim defolieren . Hab mal ein getrockneten Bud aus der mitte genommen und Trichom analyse (Videos und Bilder) gemacht . ja viel klar wenig milchig und einige rot . Ergo , zuviel Licht an der Spitze (abstand zum licht viel zu gering) und im Boden zu kalt ist keine gute Kombination .

Fed my girl her last flowering compost tea about 3 days ago. She is absolutely beautiful. Loving her environment and thriving. Bud production looks lovely and even producing tricomes already. I'm very please with this week. Will water with recharge on day 21 and then one last defoliation. Very easy going plant.

Pianta unica

Looks going well.

Week 14 marks a special chapter for Nectar Drip. What started as a straight 12/12 from seed run has turned into one of the clearest side-by-side lessons in plant behavior this room has given us so far. Same room, same feed, same light cycle, same genetics—but two very different approaches, and now two very different outcomes. From seed, this run was split in philosophy. One Nectar Drip was trained early and shaped by hand. The others were left almost entirely untouched—no topping, no real intervention, just leaf tucking and enough space to do their thing. That contrast became the real experiment. By now, the result is hard to ignore: in this format, under 12/12 from seed, the less we interfere, the more the plant seems willing to give back. The trained plant stayed smaller, stacked tighter, and never fully matched the natural size or output of the untouched sisters. Still beautiful, still resin-heavy, still absolutely worth growing—but clearly the most reduced expression of the group. And that made the decision easy. This week, the trained Nectar Drip became the chosen plant for fresh frozen. Not because it underperformed—but because it offered the perfect candidate for something different. Smaller structure, dense flower, extreme resin coverage, and a terp profile too loud to ignore made it the obvious pick to sacrifice to the wash. Rather than drying it traditionally, the whole plant was harvested and frozen immediately to preserve the volatile compounds exactly as they were on the stem. That means this one is no longer headed for jars—it is headed for ice, agitation, and eventually bubble hash. For anyone unfamiliar with the process: “fresh frozen” means harvesting the plant and freezing it immediately after chop instead of drying and curing first. This preserves more of the volatile terpenes and allows the resin to be processed later into solventless extracts—most commonly ice water hash. In simple terms: instead of smoking this plant as flower, we freeze it now so we can wash it later and separate the trichome heads into hash. Same resin, different destination. And if any plant in this run deserved that treatment, it was this one. Even as the smallest of the group, it was dripping in frost from top to bottom. Thick trichome coverage, greasy heads, sticky stalks, and that unmistakable oily feel when touched—the kind of resin that tells you immediately this cultivar has extraction potential. The aroma made the decision even easier: fruit up front, skunk underneath, something creamy in the middle, and a strange almond-like edge that keeps showing up every time the flower is handled. Loud, weird, greasy, and complex—exactly the kind of profile worth preserving in fresh frozen form. The remaining plants are still standing, and this is where the room shifts into its final phase. At this point, the living Nectar Drips are no longer being fed in the traditional sense. This week is water only, using collected rainwater and reclaimed dehumidifier water, with a small amount of enzymes to help break down remaining organics in the root zone. No more push. No more force. Just clean hydration, natural fade, and enough biological support to keep the substrate active while the plants finish at their own pace. It is the final reduction phase now—less input, more observation. And the plants are responding exactly the way they should. Fade is accelerating across the room now, and this is the kind of late-flower senescence we want to see. Fans are pulling color, chlorophyll is retreating, and the plants are beginning to cannibalize what remains in reserve. This is not deficiency panic—it is end-of-life behavior. The engine is shutting down naturally. Energy is no longer going into leaf production or structural growth. Everything is being redirected toward resin, ripening, and final flower maturation. Morphologically, that means the stretch is long over and the architecture is locked. What we are seeing now is finish work. Calyxes will continue to swell. Bracts should tighten. Resin heads will continue shifting from clear to cloudy. Aromatics will intensify. Leaf mass will continue fading back. Water uptake will begin slowing. The flowers are no longer building size the way they did two weeks ago—they are building finish. And that finish is already obvious. Buds across all remaining plants are dense, compact, and far heavier than their frame suggests. The untouched plants especially proved the point this run has been hinting at from the start: in this style of cultivation, less handling allowed for stronger vertical development, better natural structure, and ultimately more productive flowering sites. No topping, no recovery, no unnecessary stress—just uninterrupted forward motion. The difference is visible now in both size and final output. What happens next is simple: patience. There is no hard harvest date yet, and there does not need to be. From here forward, timing belongs to the trichomes. Right now, heads are mostly cloudy with very little amber present, which means we are entering the harvest window—but not fully inside it yet. Clear means early. Cloudy means peak THC. Amber means degradation begins shifting the effect. Until those heads begin showing the level of amber we want, these plants stay standing. So now we wait, watch, and let them decide. The room is loud. The flowers are greasy. Frost is everywhere. The fade is beautiful. The smell is ridiculous. Fruit, skunk, cream, funk, and something strangely nutty underneath. Sticky, oily, loud, and getting louder by the day. Nectar Drip has been a special one. Big respect to TICAL and Zamnesia for this collaboration—this cultivar has been loud, unique, and unforgettable from start to finish. Huge thanks as always to everyone following along, whether you have been here since day one or just landed in the diary this week. To the regulars, the silent watchers, the growers, the learners, the curious ones, the supporters, the skeptics, the OGs, the new faces, the lovers and the haters—thank you for being part of the ride. Big love to GrowDiaries for giving growers a place to document the process, and respect to every sponsor and supporter helping keep this garden moving. One plant went to the freezer. The rest are headed for the finish line. 📡 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.

Day 38 since starting germination: Everything is looking healthy and happy. I’ve FIMed the main and continued leaf tucking & LST. Upped the amount of Diamond nectar from 1ml/gal to 2ml/gal. Keeping the lights on 20/4 has kept the average low temp a degree higher at 66. I also changed the positioning of the lights. Now the Mars Hydro tsl2000 is providing ~500-550 ppfd across the canopy. At this point the plants in the RDWC loop have different nutrient needs so when I did my water change I also changed the orientation of my buckets. I removed the bucket with the Northern Lights photo period from the loop so it could be connected to its own reservoir and be fed a veg nutrient solution while the Sour D auto gets its bloom nutrients.

Well, there’s no ghost the VIVO sun pumps that come with the kits they just suck that’s OK. I replaced them with the upgraded version. I refilled the reservoirs

I love this strain. Really strong genetics. Nice fruity and og kush like smell. Cant wait to harvest and try them.

Yes I my peoples! Here we are at week 4 in bloom period.. plants were feed today with a EC 1.8 and at end 2.0 with a special pk booster 4g to 5 liters water.. Little deflo to the ladies..warm temperatures don't let the girly be more happy

Going strong

Flowers are getting denser. Pistils are changing colour very slowly. On she goes! 💪

My math on the nutes had been off, so should start resolving this week. For this change, I used 2gl of RO water per plant and introduced some cal/mag to level things off. This is also the first week of using big bud and bud candy. I'll only use the big bud for this week since it's supposed to be for the first 4 weeks of flower and this is week 4. Trimmed off a few bad leaves (after the pics) but not all so the pants wouldn't stress. The system has been adjusted to keep temps below 80 and humidity under 45%.

Trouble with the temperature. Softbox at full power

Clones are nice and rooted threw off some new growth. So its time to rock and roll into flower. Get this breeding underway. Been on 12/12 for couple days now and the male has soared. Definitely gunna be more than adequate height to dump pollen down on my ladies. I treated with Dr zhymes as s preventative. I also got them on a balanced feed. Hopefully that will get the ladies engines booming. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam. Update **** Holy ball sacs! The master kush is piling on the flowers in clusters. What a machine. Definitely bringing quality traits to the table.
