Lots of smells have become their own... The fried banana has this crazy skunk smell with a real earth dirt smell once the skunk fades... The orange cake NO kidding, smells like a fresh peeled orange and some kind of batter smell... It's nuts... The big Z has the immediate Skittles blast with a earthy afternote... And the paint is just like the last one and smells real chemical like! When u say the name it makes u smell the paint... Is that just me???? Hahaha anyways... Thats what I got .. everything is going amazing and for day 37 I think they've filled out real nice... Now hopefully they fatten up in the next 20-30 days!!!!

Animal Mints — Week 11 (Week 6 Flower) “Legends of the Frozen North” 12/12 from seed — no traditional veg phase. A direct transition from seedling into flowering rhythm. This run was never about controlling the plant. It was about creating the conditions… and letting the plant decide the rest. ⸻ 🌱 How did we get here — 12/12 from seed From day one, these plants were placed under a 12/12 cycle. No extended vegetative phase, no shaping beforehand. What you see now is the result of: * Early root establishment * Immediate flowering signal * Structural decisions made by the plant itself This creates a different type of growth: Less stretch chaos, more compact intention. Not bigger plants — but often denser, faster-finishing expressions. ⸻ 🌿 The Room — Controlled, but not forced At first glance, some parameters might look “unusual” for this stage. But everything is dialed based on leaf feedback (EPD) — not charts, not assumptions. * Temps: 26°C day / 18°C night * RH: ~60% * Solution & substrate: ~21°C * PPFD: plant-grown into the light (~600–700 range) We don’t chase numbers. We read the plant — and adjust only when she asks. ⸻ ❄️ Trichomes — The “Frozen North” is real This is where she speaks loudest. Trichome production is not just present — it’s accelerating daily. * Sugar leaves fully coated * Bud surfaces stacking resin layer by layer * That early frost has turned into visible density This isn’t just aesthetics. This is the plant investing heavily in protection and reproduction. And she’s not done yet. ⸻ 🌸 Pistils & Flower Development White hairs still active, still pushing. That tells us one thing clearly: ➡️ She’s still building, not finishing Calyx swelling is underway, but not peaked. Structure is set — now it’s about mass + resin + final expression. ⸻ ⚖️ Weight, Structure & “The Lean” Branches are starting to give in to gravity. Not collapse — commitment. This is the moment where: * Density becomes visible * Structure gets tested * Support decisions begin No stress signals — just natural load from proper development. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition — Simple, consistent, intentional Current feeding: * Terra Bloom * Pure Zym * Sugar Royal * Power Buds * Green Sensation * CalMag Pro pH ~6.5 | EC ~2.0 Nothing excessive, nothing reactive. The idea is simple: ➡️ Feed enough to sustain expression, not to force it. Stable input = stable output. ⸻ 💡 Under Canopy Lighting — Why it matters This is where things get interesting. Under-canopy lighting is helping: * Lower bud sites stay active * Improved light penetration in dense zones * More uniform development across the plant Instead of larf, we’re seeing usable structure deeper into the canopy. It’s not about pushing more — it’s about unlocking what’s already there. ⸻ 🧠 Observations This phenotype… has personality. * Slightly dramatic structure * Heavy resin production * Compact but expressive Not the tallest. Not the loudest in height. But easily one of the most present plants in the room. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect next week * Continued trichome stacking * Calyx swelling becoming more pronounced * First signs of pistil transition (some darkening) * Increased weight → more need for support We’re entering that phase where daily changes become visible. ⸻ 🙏 Final Words To everyone following this journey: * The OGs who’ve been here from the start * The new eyes discovering the process * The skeptics, the questioners — always welcome * The silent supporters * The platform for hosting this space * The sponsors and partners * The genetics behind this expression And of course… the plants themselves. This room is alive. And we’re just here to witness it.

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.

What’s up y’all!!?? Week 8 deserved a video !!! The colas / bud sites are fattening up and starting to put on weight. I was concerned with the lower sites but they seem to be producing slowly but surely. I defoliate large fan leaves and make sure I keep the lower branches tied to the fabric pot to get as much light as they can. The plant is becoming sticky and the smell is getting more prominent. I turned up the air filter to help with the smell. Week 9 is approaching and we getting closer and closer to blowing our very first home grown bud!

Hey there. On FD25 I „lolipopped“ the rest of the plants. I‘m happy with the result. Pheno #1 is 115cm now and pheno #2 is 100cm. First trichomes spotted on the leafs. Took a photo. 📷 Adding Green Sensation since FD24 I also transplanted mother plant #1 from her 14l to a 30l pot with Canna Terra Professionel Plus. Will give me plenty of fresh clones in a few weeks. See you around. ✌️

Flowering Update – Late Flower This week the plants continued to bulk up, and the buds are noticeably denser than before. The trichomes are becoming increasingly cloudy, showing that harvest is getting close. The weather has improved compared to the previous heat wave. Daytime temperatures are around 33°C, while nighttime temperatures have dropped to about 20°C. The larger day/night temperature swing has finally triggered some purple coloration on the Banana Purple plants, which was a pleasant surprise after weeks of waiting. Overall, I’m very happy with how both the naturally grown plants and the LST-trained plants turned out. One interesting observation is the difference between the Sour Jealousy plants: * The natural plant developed fewer but much larger and thicker colas. * The LST plant produced more flowering sites, but the individual buds are noticeably slimmer. This suggests that, at least in my setup with autoflowers and relatively small pots, LST increased the number of buds but didn’t necessarily improve the overall size of each cola. The Banana Purple plants are clearly the most advanced. Most pistils have turned orange/brown, and the trichomes are mostly cloudy. They appear to be about one week away from harvest. The Sour Jealousy plants are slightly behind and will likely need another 1–2 weeks to fully mature. After gradually reducing the flowering nutrients, I decided to stop feeding ATA Terra Max completely on the Banana Purple plants and continue with plain water until harvest. The Sour Jealousy plants will receive one or two light feedings before switching to water only. I also changed my watering routine. Instead of watering daily, I now water only when the pots feel light, allowing the root zone to dry slightly between irrigations. This should improve root oxygenation and avoid unnecessary stress. Overall, despite the extreme heat earlier in flowering and even a hailstorm that damaged several fan leaves, the flowers remained intact and continued developing well. I’m very satisfied with the progress and excited to compare the final yield and quality between the naturally grown plants and the LST-trained ones for both Banana Purple and Sour Jealousy.

a week ago the plants showed me some magnesium deficiency i fixed it and raised the EC/ppm in my small water bucket, i toped them and gave in one more week to grow before switching 12/12 (week 3 VEG)

Week is progressing normally it appears that A#2 has some white powdery looking substance on its leaves, hope it's nothing serious. They only needed watering twice this week.

Plants doing well a little delayed due to rainy weather all week with not many sunny days. Temps been good. Possible perfect conditions when plants are going in to flowering phase. Thanks to all who are following along. Accepting any tips on topping autoflowers, thinking about trying one these.

So far so good. Lowering the light was a bit of a mistake as the main cola started to show light stress. The main cola is 7" higher than the rest which is a bit of a PITA. I'll be much more aggressive with the LST next time around - comments on how to prevent such a taller main cola are welcome :) I've trimmed about a dozen or so leaves to get more airflow and I moved the LED strips up to support the middle section of the plant, seems to have helped (I think).

Good week this week. The plant is growing and growing. I can’t complain. One more week and then I will switch the lights to 12/12. See you next week!

Aug 8: Gorilla Cookies Fast is doing great. She has the best overall shape of this year’s plants and it is the fastest flowering plant of the four. Had the AC Infinity UV lights out for the first time today. The strength of UV light drops quickly here in mid-August but these lights make up for it. The UV lights could be used just near solar noon (about 1:30 here now) but they’re LED which means low power demand so I just leave them on during the day. These are indoor lights so only on non-rain days outside. Aug 9: sunny day and have UV lights going too. Aug 10: no UV lights today. Used Green Sensation from Plagron for first time this afternoon. More defoliation to improve airflow and to get the plant to focus on the big buds.

Update June 28th Grow growing steady. Temperatures and humidity are absolutely terrible. I’m not sure if the grow will be successful this way but I’ll just hope for the best. Apart from that things are going great. Trichomes and pistils appeared right on time. I think I’m done lollipopping as well. There’s no hidden mini branches left.
