This girl is still doing her veg thing but I'm sure she'll be flowering by next weekend. She's looking good and filling out like the other girls. It'll be interesting to see how much she stretches. She has a very lovely smell right now, lots of floral notes.

Good start to the week temps dropping slightly. Some light defoliation and tucked a few branches under the trellis for light penatration a little video in there looks like the stretch has calmed down focusing on producing flower now ... 09/12 a little problem went to find my trellis had come of the clips pulling my canopy into one big ball sorted it and put a pic up of the day after so no major problems or snapped branches luckily thanks for reading happy growing

Divine Seeds 2025 Auto Contest AK-47XL Auto 👉Sponsored Grow👈 W9 F5 I wish I could share this week’s weather with you. It was sunny and comfortable in the 70-80s with 50% humidity. This means that whatever the temperature is, the air feels like it, not 10-15 degrees hotter. My AK-47XL is short under 3 feet and has good node spacing so there is space for air flow. The buds forming don’t have many hairs yet but the trichomes forming on the sugar leaves are visible. Looking at the bud structure, the leaves are tight throughout. This may be a concern for bud rot if the rain and humidity return. I’ll keep a close watch, but so far, she is easy to grow and resistant to fungus and pests. Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Your likes and comments motivate me to keep sharing my journey. Let’s continue to learn to grow together! Stay green, growers love 💚🌿, 💫Natrona💫

Strawberry 🥧 I feel like her milky trichomes were starting to turn a little amber on some of the more mature buds so I chopped her down.Indica dominant strain so I wanted to let her go as long as possible.Smells great I’ll update a smoke report after she dries and cures.I think I’m going to use the majority of this one for some Rick Simpson oil and see how she turns out :)

Transplanted her into a 3 gal air pot, added some mycorrhizae to the soil and watered her with pH'd water 6.0...

Last week i did the harvesting of the Blue Cheese Automatic and its drying on cold 20 degrees and dark place. I have prepared a mason jar which i will start using in few days. This is the 2 week of the flowering for the Fruit Spirit and 3G The Fruit Spirit is growing amazing. The LST worked amazing and I already see many heads. The 3G it will be small but it’s healthy and I’m sure i will get high soon from it. I couldn’t leave it in vegetation for longer as I don’t have more rooms and lights. I’m ordering the seeds for my next plants.

Day 106 Flower 64. 17.03. Hallo Leute. Hat die an Glitzer zugelegt. 😍 Plus weiterhin Gewicht Zunahme. Und Volumen. Der Kohlgeruch ist komplett weg. Es bleibt ein Geruch nach heißem Plastik. + 3 Wirklich 3 Gerüche, die ich als Großmeister noch nie gerochen habe. + Weed. PLANET SUHH. Dort ist der Geruch wohlbekannt. PLANET ERDE. Der Grower ( mich) staunt. Der Rauch steht noch aus, aber wow. Sowas von, ja krankhaften ( nicht aufzuhalten, Manisch, enervierend ) WACHSTUM. Erst pumpen sich Knospen auf, dann werden sie hart, und danach pumpen sie in gleicher Weise weiter. Also habe ich harte geile Knospen mit bis zu 32 % Thc. Ohh, das ist viel. Sehr viel um genau zu sagen. Hängt auch genug dran. Bin zufrieden. In, wie nennt es ANESIA? Psychedelisch. Oh je. Habe trotzdem Lust drauf. Mein Gehirn schreit JAAAA. Danke fürs liken lesen und alles. 19.03. Day 66 der blüte. Schnick schnack schnock: DARKNESS für 3 Tage. 20.03 (Pferdewiehern) WIIIHIHIHHHIIII Leute in meinen Zelt , sind gerade 2 Bomben am trocknen. Diese hier und ne Future 1. Explosive Mischung sage ich nur . 23.03. es ist vollbracht. Gecuttet. Aufgehängt. Eine Testbund von unten wurde zerkleinert zum trocknen, konsumieren. Selbst die Stämme waren Gummiartig klebrig. 25.03. Wie die Testbud war? ICH KANN MICH NICHT ERINNERN!😳 Ich habe den ganzen Abend davon geraucht. ... Sandelholz Zitrone Aroma.. das weiß ich noch... Aber Turn... Ähh tut mir leid, ich kann mich nicht erinnern.. 😳😂 27.03. geil, ich kann's kaum Erwarten bis alles fertig ist.

Day 46 for this pretty lady. She’s so big and bushy and full. I’m just in awe of how she turned out. Very very excited for her she’s full of life and vigor. Nothing I’ve thrown at her has seemed to matter. Idk what Russian means but hey who cares when they look like this. Hello beautiful. Can’t wait to see her full and bulk out.

We are finally into flower stage ! I moved this lady into a bigger room with more powerful light. She not actually tall and I’ll see how I control the stretch I made a big work on her root and I’m satisfied of the result !

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.

To the genetics. To everyone watching the process for what it is. Thank you. Not every plant is perfect. Not every harvest is textbook. Not every decision is made by the calendar.

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.

So 2 week update since last. They were transplanted on week 4. Then Ive been still playing around and dialing in the calmag portion of the nutrients. They seem to be responding well. got the net installed today and theyre already stretching. First grow in coco please dont come at me im learning. hoping to have it dialed in within a week or 2 since I need to flip soon.

Some leaves starting yellowing and dying as plant is focusing on bud growth. Decided to run some defoliation techniques to allow nutrients to not be wasted. Didn’t want to stress the plant too much as I did this earlier and don’t want to cause any hermies will monitor and feed regularly

Medusa 2/5 also suffered from the heat & drought stress. Neverthless, the issue is fixed. From now on the buds will start to grow bigger. The plant almost requires a watering every 2 days. Let's keep the temps down and see how she turns out

Week 1 27/01/2025 TF and MS Feed HydroSol: Increased to 8ml/5L 28/01/2025 TF and MS Light Increased: 313watts DLi: 35 Rapid Growth has started again. Feed Increased: HydroSol 10ml/5L HP 12%: 1ml/5L Uploaded today's pictures and yesterday's for comparison on how HydroSol is doing? I topped MS. Hopefully by doing this now TF will catch up but that's not why I topped her. She's known for being bushy; so will be good to bring her up to her second level before branching. Giving the rate she is growing; we haven't to worry about stunting Growth. H202 is also know to to cause mutations at high levels. I tried to start this diary with HP 12% from seed and it worked until micro-organisms in the air and water; what distillation has missed the "vocs" the cardon didn't catch. Caused them to later on because of free radicals and this is why high levels of HP can cause mutations and cancer when it steals atoms by ripping them apart. "Call the bomb swaddles" when mixed correctly or 'incorrectly 💣 lol 28th Today Little VT of the 5L jerry can starter pots (DiY) I think this process is allowing for optimization of Air/feed pks. I'm at least 2-3weeks ahead from a normal grow because of this style growing. I know, I know, I lost 3weeks from the first failed attempts. But it's okay 👍 I'm okay with that. Now I know and it's logged in the dairy for future reference I can quickly glance over before I start another one. Like hey 👋 "Time is valuable, read ya diaries" honestly, I don't have dementia i have human forgetfulness/error. Its still in the experimentental phase. Took tf out the propagator 31/01/2024 Nothing much to see I've did everything for TF and still looking droopy. Exactly the same as MS. I think she'll grow out of it! 01/02/2025 I know, I know what ya thinking, it looks like spider mites on MS only leaf but honestly I think its of the h202. I deffolled her only leaf. Sprayed it with h202 and no reactions happen. No mites. The Future TF is looking much more lively. Oh well. No speed-run this time round! I shouldn't of took 4wks off from growing. Rhythmic nature of thing and getting in the swing off it. It's easy to do but I am always in two minds with everything I do. I can't help but cause "Self sabotage' every time I get to ahead of myself, by running my mouth 💯 blah blah blah; always beside myself. Aye' they say "God is next to Cleanliness" if that's true it'll be impossible for me to be beside myself haha 😄 Its all fun and games 🎮 🙃 01/02/2025 Midday Light Increased: 560watts (max) for this power supply. I disconnected the 1200watts one for each light is 600watts. It's currently half-power with 600watts max for two lights at 300watts each. Better than having mishaps with the full power supply 1200 being turned up accidently say in a not ventilated enough little tent. I'd rather pass on that anxiety 🙃 Plants: Under jerry cans with dli at 20. This should by dinfintion let them gather themselves for 3days; while the sun is blazing outside the can. Even though I could lower the light. I think the high light intensity outside the cans the plants know. Midday VT MS looks likes shes a clone 😳 👀 but she ain't! One day I will get these protocols right. But atm ; atlas, it's all in jest n fun! MS defiantly looks like a clone but she's not; i have taken pictures since she hatched everyday 03/02/2025 Midday Freaky Pablo and The future 2 germinated Sprayed with weak solution of Hydroclonic Acid + h202 very mild. Now the fun begins!

Well, here we are ladies and gents. I'm saying this a good few weeks earlier than I was expecting to, but she's ready. Buds have swollen up like balloons, and are dense and frosty. I dug out the microscope for a look in the week to see how far gone we were, and the pictures tell the story. As much as 50% amber on some of the tips closest to the light. Even deep in the calyx, amber is 30-40%, and lowers are 95% cloudy / 5% amber. The sugar leaves pretty much look like a burnt landscape under the microscope at this point. Almost disappointed it's coming to an end, this has been a really chill grow. No issues at all, she's been a pleasure from start to finish. But they all gotta come to an end sometime. Way she grows, boys. Way she grows.... Enough sadness. 'Tis a time to be joyful. She looks great, smells great and she's screaming she's ready, so I will be chopping any day now. This is the last weekly update - I'll be back in a couple of weeks once this is all dried, trimmed and weighed with the harvest details :)
