Sponsored grow 👉WeedSeedsExpress👈 Harvest Love Potion grew in my AC Infinity 4x4 with 4 other plants. I harvested her April 12, 90 days after germination. Love Potion demonstrated strong resistance to mold, bud rot and pests. Based on her appearance of burnt and curled leaves, she did not recover after overfeeding then flushing in mid growth cycle. I trained her hard by topping her twice and tie downs to all limbs. Even though Love Potion is an auto, she seemed to tolerate this stressful training. Because of the mix of strains growing in the tent, no smell was discernable. Now as it hangs by herself, she smells fruity and sweet. Love Potion remained under 2 feet tall after topping. Even without topping, she would remain short. This would make Love Potion very good strain for small closet grows. Love Potion grew without difficulty or issues. Produced a nice outcome. Wet weight 358g. Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Thank you @WeedSeedsExpress for this opportunity to grow your strains. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

🌸 White Widow — Week 7 Flower (Week 11 from seed) Status: Full flower, bulking rapidly. Vibe: Dark foliage, compact form, heavy frost, 90s aroma profile. Feeding: Aptus + Plagron lineup (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation, Regulator, CalMag, All-in-One) Photos: Sony a6000 — loyal workhorse for studio shots. 📷 ⸻ 🧠 Deep dive — Why 12/12-from-seed makes a plant “go hard” Plants evolved to reproduce. Their primary biological drive is to make seeds. Photoperiod (day length) is one of the most reliable seasonal cues plants use to decide: is it time to flower? Mechanisms at play (simple → nerdy): • Photoperiod sensing: Leaves detect day length via phytochrome systems (Pr Pfr). Short days (or the 11/13 rhythm) flip the hormonal cascade toward flowering. • Florigen & flowering hormones: When the plant senses “short days,” it produces mobile signals (florigen) that travel to the shoot apex and shift gene expression from vegetative growth to reproductive development. • Carbohydrate reallocation: Energy stops making more leaves/branches and is directed into calyxes, resin synthesis, terpene pathways, and seed/flower tissues. • Result: A plant that thinks “the season’s ending — reproduce now!” goes all-in: denser flowers, rapid calyx swelling, intense trichome production. Important point: they don’t know about pollination. The plant can’t tell you whether pollinators exist or whether pollen will land — it simply invests in attractive, resinous flowers to maximize reproductive success. As growers, we exploit that drive to produce potent sensimilla (unpollinated) flowers. ⸻ 🔬 Why your White Widow is exploding in quality right now • Immediate reproductive programming: Starting floral signals early (12/12 from seed) forces the plant to prioritize flower formation rather than vegetative mass. That yields compact, dense colas. • High PPFD + short day = strong DLI in less time: With fewer hours of light, your lamp intensity is higher in those hours → powerful photosynthesis during the window the plant has chosen. • Nutrition tuned to flower: the Aptus + Plagron stack feeds the metabolic surge — PK + biostimulators for bulking, sugar stimulators for terpene pathways, Ca/Mg for structural health. • Genetics: White Widow is resin-happy; give it the right cues and it will frost up like a sugar cookie. ⸻ 🌈 Why her colors are going dark (and why that’s beautiful) Leaf & bud color comes from a balance of chlorophyll + accessory pigments (anthocyanins, carotenoids) and is influenced by: • Genetic propensity (some phenos are naturally darker) • Temperature swings (cooler nights often increase anthocyanin expression) • pH / nutrient balance (some deficits/ratios nudge color pathways) • Light spectrum intensity (strong red/far-red influence can shift pigment expression) Dark phenos often correlate with high terpene and anthocyanin expression — visually stunning and often highly aromatic. ⸻ 🔁 Quick timeline recap (for newcomers) • Germination & early mistakes: initial heat-mat loss → restarted, one strong survivor. • Veg: compact, short internodes under the 11/13/12-12 shuttle → stacked nodes. • Early flower: slow to show, but once she flipped she committed. • Now – Week 7 flower (Week 11 from seed): heavy bulking, thick trichomes, deepening color, classic White Widow aroma emerging. ⸻ 🔭 What to expect next (this week → next week) Expect: • Continued bulking of calyxes and cola weight. • Explosion of trichome coverage — white, cloudy glands multiply. • Stronger terpene smell (earthy, spicy, resinous 90s profile). • Possible color intensification — deeper greens, potential purples depending on phenotype & nights. Do not expect: • Major new stretch — she’s committed to flower and will remain compact. • Immediate harvest — typical White Widow still wants its weeks; plan for patience (mid-late flower bulking happens over several more weeks). ⸻ ⚖️ Should you run all seeds 12/12 next cycle? (pros & cons) You asked if you might run every seed 12/12 — here’s the honest rabbit-hole: Pros • Much faster cycle → less time to harvest. • Compact plants → ideal for small spaces or stealth grows. • Often denser single-plant yields; less training needed. • Great for experimentation, multi-strain rapid rotation. Cons • Generally lower total biomass per plant vs. long veg runs. • Some genetics need veg time to express full canopy & branching; yields may be lower for those strains. • Root systems can remain smaller → may stress under high PPFD if not supported. • Less flexible for heavy-topping/lst/manipulation strategies. Bottom line: for strains with good genetics for flowers (like White Widow), 12/12-from-seed can be very rewarding. For sativa-dominant, tall strains you might lose yield without long veg. ⸻ 📷 Gear love — Sony a6000 shoutout I’ve got to echo it: that camera is a workhorse for growers. Compact, responsive, great color fidelity, and perfect for low-light studio shots when paired with proper exposure. The a6000 captures the leaf texture, color depth, and bud gloss in a way phones struggle to match. Long live the loyal shooter. 📸✨ ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude — the usual and the real Thank you to: • Zamnesia — for the genetics & the nostalgia. • Aptus & Plagron — the chemical & biological push that lets the plant sing. • ThinkGrow / Future of Grow / TrolMaster — lighting, control, and environment orchestration. • You — the makers, lovers, critics, curious readers — your energy fuels this diary. And to our White Widow — for showing up, forgiving mistakes, and giving back in beauty. 💚 ⸻ Week 7 flower — Week 11 from seed. Darker colors, heavy frost, the classic 90s scent, and a compact structure that proves 12/12-from-seed can produce absolute fire. We went full-in on Aptus + Plagron, kept the Emerson red-lead sunrise/sunset, and trusted the genetics. Watching her build is pure joy.

DLI = the total amount of photosynthetic light (photons) a plant receives over one day. It’s expressed in moles of photons per square metre per day (mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹). While PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹) tells you instantaneous light intensity, DLI tells you how much light the plant actually used that day. ⸻ 2) The formula (how to calculate it) Use this exact formula: text{DLI (mol·m}^{-2}text{·day}^{-1}) = frac{text{PPFD (μmol·m}^{-2}text{·s}^{-1}) times text{seconds of light per day}}{1{,}000{,}000} Where seconds of light per day = hours of light × 3600. I’ll show worked examples so it’s easy to follow. ⸻ 3) Worked examples (digit-by-digit so it’s crystal clear) Example A — your reported PPFD ≈ 766 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹ and 11 hours light • seconds of light = 11 × 3600 = 39,600 s • photons per day = 766 × 39,600 = 30,333,600 μmol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ • convert to moles: 30,333,600 ÷ 1,000,000 = 30.3336 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ So: 766 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹ × 11 h → DLI ≈ 30.3 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ Example B — same PPFD but 12 hours • seconds = 12 × 3600 = 43,200 • photons = 766 × 43,200 = 33,091,200 • DLI = 33,091,200 ÷ 1,000,000 = 33.0912 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ Example C — other quick refs • 700 μmol × 11 h → DLI ≈ 27.72 • 800 μmol × 11 h → DLI ≈ 31.68 • 400 μmol × 11 h → DLI ≈ 15.84 • 1000 μmol × 12 h → DLI ≈ 43.2 (You can plug any PPFD and hours into the formula — those are ready-made reference points.) ⸻ 4) What DLI targets are useful for cannabis? • Vegetative (gentle): ~12–25 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ • Flower (typical good range): ~25–40 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ — most home/pro growers aim here • High-intensity/CO₂-enriched commercial: 40–60+ mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ (needs CO₂, stronger conditioning) So your example (≈30 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ at ~766 PPFD × 11h) sits very nicely in the flower range. That explains the dense bulking + heavy resin you’re seeing — our DLI is right where White Widow loves to convert energy into flowers. ⸻ 5) Practical implications — what DLI affects and what to watch • Higher DLI → higher photosynthesis → more carbohydrate to drive bud bulking and terpene/trichome production. • Higher DLI requires more water and nutrients. Plants transpire more and pull more minerals; be ready to feed and irrigate appropriately. • Leaf temperature / heat stress: pushing PPFD up increases canopy energy/heat — keep airflow, VPD, and room temps under control. • CO₂ matters: if aiming beyond ~40 mol/day, elevated CO₂ (e.g., 800–1200 ppm) becomes productive; otherwise additional light won’t be used efficiently. • Distribution matters: DLI is an average over the canopy. Hotspots or shaded pockets mean some flowers get too much or too little — even light spread (and PAR mapping) matters. ⸻ 6) Actionable tips for your run (based on your 11/13 / 12/12 experiment) • We’re hitting excellent flower DLI (≈30 mol/day at 766 μmol × 11 h). That’s why buds are dense/frosty — keep the rhythm. • If you shorten hours (e.g., 11 h) keep PPFD high to maintain target DLI. If you lengthen hours (12 h) you can reduce peak PPFD slightly and still hit the same DLI. • If you raise PPFD to chase more DLI, ramp slowly (a few μmol/sec per day) to let stomata and roots acclimate — avoid sudden bleaching. • Watch watering & EC — higher DLI → faster uptake → more frequent but measured feeding. • If you ever push DLI 40 mol/day consider CO₂ enrichment and perfect VPD control to have that extra light used efficiently. ⸻ 7) Quick rules of thumb • Want to hit ~30 mol/day with 11 hours on the clock → aim for roughly 700–800 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹. • Want ~33 mol/day at 12 hours → ~766 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹ matches that nicely. • If you see leaf cupping/bleaching, you’ve likely exceeded safe PPFD for that canopy or temps are too high — back off, check VPD.

Hi, Topman! Today is 30 days of blooms! We are done defoliations and adding Delta9 6ml/l. The next week we are adding YV BOOSTERS. Comeing soon

No me pude estar de hacer una nueva poda de bajos, tercer y cuarto nudo a todas. Sigo batallando contra la araña roja :-( No hay manera de deshacerme de ella al 100% y cuando me sube un poco las temperaturas vuelven a salir. También podria haber ayudado porque programé mal el temporizador del ventilador hace un par de dias y estubo parado por la noche y coincidió también durante unas horitas mientras aun estaba encendido el ATS. , esas horas la temp habria subido hasta los 29 -30ªC. Volví a aplicarles otra con Solabiol por segunda vez, por arriba y por el en envés de las hojas , todo bién mojado. Como se puede ver en alguna fofto del seguimiento, en la semana 7 por ejemplo, antes tenia un tablón de madera con muchos abujeros para facilitar que suba el calorcito de los calefactores pero no las tenia todas al ser madera, me temo que al ser madera era más difícil de desinfectar bién el armario y obté por poner unos soportes elevadores metálicos con sus abujeritos. Creo que empiezo a estar enamorado del ATSPro , deberia esperar a que termine la flora para no tirar cohetes si pero por lo que voy viendo me está ganado mucho. Llevaba tiempo cultivando con COBs , anteriormente con LEC y anteriormente al LEC con PHS y esto es en diferencia lo más cómodo y que mejor reparte la luz y por lo que voy observando una mejor o mayor penetración lumíca , creo que esta iluminaria me permitirá que los cogollos arranquen de más abajo. toquemos madera. Esta semana empecé con el Delta 9 en el riego, las veces anteriores habian sido via foliar. terminada la semana creo que ya podemos asegurar que variedad es más vigorosa y cual predomina más el feno índico. Como puede observarse las Animal cokies ganan en altura con una distancia internudal mayor. Las OgKush todo al contrario, bajitas y una distancia internudal menor. Por lo que hace a la altura de las plantas las OGK rondarian entre los 70 ctms y las más altas que vendrian a ser la Animal C unos 90ctms. áprox.

Day 14 Nulla da dire se non che la Sweet è più lenta e che le 5 Crystal Candy XL sono molto simili. Se posso dare un consiglio questi sono i giorni più importanti per le autofiorenti. Non toccatele e vedrete che vi ripagheranno alla grande. Al massimo piegate qualche voglia se vedete che copre i getti inferiori ma nulla più anche perché c'è il rischio di bloccare una pianta e portarla in fioritura più piccola di quanto sarebbe potuta essere A settimana prossima 🖐️ ❤️ PS: Da adesso. In poi blocchero tutte le persone che mi scriveranno commenti tutti uguali sotto ogni diario. Poco mi importa che lo fate per avere tanti like e salire di livello per avere semi, fertilizzanti e luci gratis.Prefisco aprire una notifica e leggere qualcosa di costruttivo piuttosto che "buona crescita" o "buona fioritura" e poi aprire i vostri 50/100 diari e non trovare uno strain decente. Il mio consiglio anche qui è :"ma cosa perdete tempo a fare quando questo tempo potreste usufruirlo per capire qualcosa di banche semi, cloni e incroci ???"

She’s finally on the rack , absolutely chuffed with the finished product here. Great yield , sticky , chunky, sweet and tarps for days . The misso reckons it’s her fave tasting strain ever , fruity , sweet and a lingering paradise on the palette on exhale . Really really nice .

Another first timer strain and luckily this one has passed the germination week from white label seeds...it was a sunny week which propelled the enhanced growth...looking forward to crossing her with some Skunk #1 pollen. OG SKUNK Loading.

Sweet Bourbon Kush auto has exploded in growth in the last week. She got her second heavy dose of lst today. She is looking pretty strong, and healthy. Hopefully it continues. Thank you Super Sativa seed club. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

11/7/2022: decided to lower my scrog net 2 inches. Was probably a little late, so I had to do some super cropping to get the plants under the net. A little concerned since they are autos, but the plants are all still very healthy, so hopefully thete won't be any issues. Watered with the coconut powder and added some BuildASoil BuildABloom for the first time today. Also dropped the humidity down to 55% now that flowers are starting to develop. Puts my VPD at about 1.45. 11/9/2022: watered about 1.3 liters each, with Fish Shit, Bio-Phos, ThermX 70, and coconut powder. The snapped branch and supper cropping seem to be doing well. Looks like all three plants are near the end of stretch. The Strawberry Gushers continues to stack, and a few hairs are starting to brown. The tricomes are starting to develop as well. She smells funky. Almost sweet and sour. Something really unique. Excited for it to continue to develop. The Newberry and Orange Bubblegum aren't smelling as much yet, but they are a week or two behind. The Newberry has a bit more of a musky smell, but pretty faint still. 11/12/2022: fed all three a compost tea yesterday and they loved it . Been praying all day. The Strawberry Gushers has a minor purple stem, so I thought the tea might help. This may just also be the genetics, since this strain tend to turn purple in late flower. Figured the tea couldn't hurt and the girls are all reacting positively. Otherwise, thay all remain healthy. 11/13/2022: made a sprouted seed tea today using corn and watered about 1.3 liters to each plant. Avg. VPD:1.45 PPFD: 700 DLI: 45

End of week 9 One word - Voluptuous! The neighbours are definitely smelling it now, luckily the terpene profile on all of these plants make it smell more like a citrus farm. Another smooth sailing week and I have noticed some of the ladies are drinking less and the leaves are fading more and more every day. I am preparing for harvest as the girls are almost screaming to be cut down but I’ll be patient. I’ll be using my grow tent as the drying room because I can keep the environment in check. Making sure all my effort is not ruined by a rookie mistake such as not drying properly. Removed some dead leaves and thats about it. I’ve basically just been checking my PH and watering through this entire grow. It’s cool being easy and easy being cool!

Alien vs Triangle smells insane!! I'm really looking forward to this girl finishing up. I backed down a little on the Recharge this week, but still giving twice the suggested amount. Also still giving her Mammoth P. Will start with MegaCrop (Greenleaf) nutrients later this week. 👍

Hello all! This plant looks mature and I have a microscope but the thing is I thing it has over ripened and, some trichomes fell off? Or let me tell you my trichomes never turned MILKY OR WHITE. Some of them are amber tho. Anyways, on growweedeasy.com there is a guide that says : Harvest even if your trichomes are not ready. I guess it will be more a gut feeling to chop or not chop. Any input greatly appreciated. And yes, I have chopped down the main cola and dried and smoked it. I guess it gets me high but I smoke all the time so it's hard to evaluate because I have also bought quality weed to smoke So guys, only from the photos, what do you think? My trichomes looks like half clear %10 amber. Do you think it could go to amber without stopping at milky? Or milky trichomes fell of but there was new growth and I could never see clear trichomes? INPUT ? :)

Growth is picking up. EC is at 2.9 with big bud as this is with shared res.

D18 - Today was the first day in week three of veg, and it was time for transplanting the girl into her final pot. All I did was get her out of her cup, sprinkle some mycorhizal inoculant on her roots, and then plant her back into the pot. Finally, I gave her around 1.2-liters of water @ pH 6.4 to reduce transplant shock. D20 - Not much to report, but she is looking happy after the transplant. I gave her about 0.6-liters of water @ pH 6.5 just because I had some over from watering the Colorado Cookies girl. Overwatering a single time should be fine. D22 - She is loving her new home, looking vibrant and healthy. I cut down the cover crop as it was getting a bit unruly. D23 - I opened the tent today and realized I forgot to fill up the humidifier last night. The RH in the tent was only 29%. Oops! I gave the girl about one liter of compost tea that I started brewing yesterday. 24 - The end of the third week of veg and she is loving life after her transplant. She is 9 cm tall and 13 cm across and has grown sturdy enough to start LST next week.

Flowering day 49 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone 😀. Another wonderful week goes by 👍. Both phenotypes are developing very well 😀. This week, 1 g enhancer per liter of water was added. That was the last time since they will be flushed next week :-). The trichomes are 60: milky, 10% amber and 30% clear. I think the harvest will take place in 12-17 days 👍. I'm very curious which phenotype tastes better in the end 😍 since both smell very tasty ☺️. I wish you all the best until the next update 👍 stay healthy and let it grow 🍀 You can buy this Strain at : https://sweetseeds.es/de/sweet-skunk-f1-fast-version/ Type: Sweet Skunk F1 Fast Version ☝️🏼 Genetics: Sweet Skunk Auto (SWS34) X Early Skunk 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.
