🌿 LSD — Week 8 From Seed (Week 4 Flower – Photoperiod) The room is full. Not chaotic-full. Intentional-full. And that’s a big difference. ⸻ 🌡️ ENVIRONMENT ANALYSIS 📊 Current Metrics • Canopy temp: 27.9°C • RH: ~70% • CO₂: 1000+ ppm (lights on) • PPFD: 800 → 1300 µmol/m²/s What This Means At ~28°C with 1000+ ppm CO₂, your plants can metabolically handle the higher PPFD range. This is a high-energy room right now. Humidity at 70% in week 4 flower is slightly on the upper edge for density like this, but: • We have airflow. • We have under-canopy lighting. • We have structured spacing. So this isn’t panic territory. It’s “monitor closely” territory. ⸻ 🌱 SUBSTRATE & FEEDING • Soil EC: 0.91 • Watering EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 • Medium temp: ~22.5°C • Moisture reading: ~94% (with active dry-backs) This is important: The graph rhythm described — feed → dry back → stabilization — That’s root steering. Your soil isn’t waterlogged. Your EC isn’t stacking. They’re drinking aggressively. And in week 4 flower, that’s exactly what you want. This is peak nitrogen-to-potassium transition phase. ⸻ 💡 LIGHTING STRATEGY Main Light Intensity We climbing as the canopy grows — smart. UVA/UVB — 6 Hours Mid-Cycle This is controlled stress application. At this stage (early-to-mid flower): • Trichome precursors are developing. • Secondary metabolite pathways are active. • Defense response can be nudged. Important: UV doesn’t create resin. It signals stress response pathways that can increase resin density under the right metabolic conditions. So far: No tacoing. No bleaching. No premature fade. That means dosage is within tolerance. ⸻ 🔴 15-Minute End-of-Day Red This is circadian tightening. Phytochrome manipulation: Pfr → Pr conversion accelerates. The plant “understands” night faster. Will yield explode? No. Will rhythm sharpen? Possibly. Subtle tools are what refine grows. ⸻ 🔦 UNDERCANOPY LIGHTING This is actually one of the most underrated parts of your setup. In a dense canopy like this: Benefits: • Lower bud sites don’t starve. • Hormonal dominance softens. • Larf reduction. • Internal airflow improves. Our structure supports it — because you didn’t over-strip last week. ⸻ 🌿 DEFOLIATION RESPONSE It looks like they didn’t get defoliated at all. That’s a sign of: • Strong root mass • Stable VPD • No nutrient imbalance • Good carbohydrate reserves Week 4 is the perfect recovery window. If they had stalled? You’d see smaller bud initiation. We’re not. ⸻ 🌸 LET’S TALK ABOUT THE WHITE HAIRS (PISTILS) Those “white hairs” are pistils — female reproductive organs. They are: • Stigma structures • Designed to catch pollen • Directly connected to ovule tissue inside the calyx Why are they exploding now? Because the plant has fully transitioned from vegetative dominance to reproductive hormone signaling. Auxin redistribution shifts. Gibberellins reduce. Flowering genes are active. We’re now in: Active bud site multiplication phase. The number of pistils at week 4 indicates: • Good hormonal balance • No stress-induced reversion • Strong floral initiation ⸻ 🌿 STRUCTURE – HYBRID BUT SATIVA EXPRESSION We’re noticing: • Vertical middle branching • Internodal stretch • Upward lateral arms Even though LSD is a hybrid, phenotype expression can lean sativa structurally. This gives us: • Longer cola potential • Slightly airier stacking (good for airflow) • Potentially later bulking Now the question: Will this become a dominant main cola? Based on structure: Yes — but not a single spear. More likely: A structured central column with strong secondary tops. We didn’t top aggressively. So apical dominance remains. But the mid-sides are competitive. This is a balanced dominance structure — not a Christmas tree, not a bush. ⸻ 📈 WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT WEEK (Week 5 Flower) You should see: Calyx swelling begins Pistils start thickening, not just multiplying Slight trichome production visible on sugar leaves Stretch slowing down Nutrient demand increases What you should NOT expect yet: ✘ Major bud density ✘ Heavy trichome frosting ✘ Fan leaf fade ✘ Pistil darkening in bulk We’re still in building phase. ⸻ 🧠 ONE IMPORTANT THING Humidity at 70% in week 5 will become more critical. As density increases: We will lower it gradually toward 60–62%. Not aggressively. Gradually. Our room is stable. We don’t shock it. ⸻ 🌿 OVERALL IMPRESSION They look: • Even • Uniform • Almost clone-like • Structurally consistent That uniformity from seed? That’s good selection genetics. This room feels intentional. Not experimental. Not chaotic. Controlled. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@DOGDOGTHEDOCTOR NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

👉Alrighty Then👈 So we are at DAY 49 of Flowering with the Sugar Larry 👈 And she's doing fantastic 👍 😀 decided to showcase pheno #2 , definitely has different traits then #1 very interesting 😀 thoe both are killing it 👈 Except for some slight watering , ive been doing some defolation as well as some LST manipulation to pull branches to the side 👌 👉I had to Top her during the middle of 4th week 👍 Happy Growing 👉Soil Provided by ProMix.ca 👉Nutrients Provided by Agrogardens 👉Lighting Provided by MarsHydro.ca Thanks my friends for the great support over the years 🙏 Happy Growing

Day 48, end of week 3 into flower 🍓🌱 Plant got a good Lollipopping 🍭and a heavy defoliation. I've run into a big problem this week, as i noticed the plant is having a light stress.. Lots of leafs got curled up and tip burned😱🤦🏽😞 I turned the lights down to 170w, and it seems the stress on the plant has stopped. This is my 3rd run with this light setup, and on the last 2 runs i was growing with about 220W with the same setup/tent size. First one i grew was a Cinderella Jack auto from dutch passion, was 100% perfect with 220w! Second was Zkittlez by FastBuds, and with her i did saw signs of light stress, but the plant came out perfect at the end. But this OG Kush auto seems extra sensitive to strong lightning, I just hope she will recover and produce well 😳🤞🏽🌱 Other then that the plant just keep getting bigger and bigger!! 🤯😍 Its 54 cm high (started the flower at around 30cm!) And she was topped of course, Absolutely fantastic in that matter!✌️🏽

Coming along nicely, no complaints.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Hey everyone :-) Another nice week goes by and it is slowly becoming a bush from training 😊. This week it was poured 2 times with 1 l each time (For nutrients, see the nutrient table above). She was trained once again with topping. You still have some time until it blooms until space is free :-). Otherwise everything was checked and cleaned like every day.

Spicy Temptation GPP

This week, they outgrew me, they are taller than me! I had to do a bit of HST. I actually broke the stems, it recoved in few hours , unbelievably. I noticed I had a problem with one of the gorillas,it's turns yellow. will see

Baklava de The Plug Seeds es un cruce de Wedding Cake X Gelato. Hay varios Phenos (3) el mejor para mi gusto es bastante púrpura y de gran rendimiento. Soporta bien altas cargas de fertilizante como además las altas temperaturas de verano. Con el frío tiende a cambiar el color a negro/purpura con tonos de verde lima y rojizos cobres. Terpenos que recuerdan a una bolleria o panadería, toques dulces, mantequilla, frutos secos, canela, miel y el pheno Gelato sale mas a crema dulce terrosa. Hay un pheno que es bastante mas Kush y Gassy! Altos contenidos en THC y muy buenos resultados para hacer extracciones.

Es wurde getoppt - Die Blüte wurde eingeleitet ... Immer noch keine Zeichen des Geschlechts zu sehen. Die Speed Queen ist eine sehr starke Indica Pflanze mit großen Blättern. Es wäre schön , wenn sich die Damen (oder Herren) outen würden ! 😊 Dann hätte ich wieder etwas mehr Platz im Zelt - Immer noch kein Dünger. Die Rosenerde hat noch genug Power ...

Beautiful strain to grow I'll say it 1 thousand times. Super sweet and floral aroma, very frosty and dense hard flowers, the exact same smell that her sisters have, I love to grow black cherry punch and hope I can keep doing so. This lady is one of the 2 purple phenos I have. The other 3 phenos are green but have the exact same smell all of them. Very recomended to all the growers out there if you are looking for exotic smells, very sweet. Peace out 💚✌️

day 42: LOTTA leaves, had to defoliate 2-3 times. they started to show their first pistils a couple days before the Ayahuascas, hope I can do a harvest before May,(the Peyotes) but it seems really tricky..unfortunately I need to leave them for a week in April. I'm pretty scared to leave them alone at the end of flowering... Day 43: do you think the leaves on 2 plants might be too dark green? Thanks! day 46: defoliating

After a healthy week of growing,I decided to top and do some LST. The bending went great the plant was very flexible. Now just waiting for the recovery period. If you see anything that I've missed or should be doing the suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Some people freeze their defoliated leaves to make other products. Some of mine goes to the doggo… she loves them like treats! 🐶🌱😎

3 for 3 on the bean pops. Now just gotta weed out the males. This grow is for Shawn, the breeders son

Week 10 From Seed | Week 6 Flower 🌸 Quick Recap — How We Got Here 12/12 from seed, no wasted time—just a straight path into expression. From early on, these girls showed intention. Strong structure, steady vertical growth, and a clean transition into flower without hesitation. We kept the environment stable and let them lead: • Temperatures around 26°C • Humidity steady at 60% • Balanced feeding, building up gradually No forcing. No overworking. Just guiding and observing. And now… here we are. ⸻ Current State — Week 6 Flower This is where things get real. The room is alive right now: • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 • CO₂: ~1000 ppm They’re drinking around 2L per day in 14.5L soil, which says everything about their metabolism and comfort. Structure is holding beautifully— Stacking tight, forming dense flowers, and starting to push real frost. The smell? Strong already. The kind that tells you something serious is building. Everything feels aligned: Healthy leaves, active uptake, no hesitation in development. This is the phase where the plant shows you what it’s truly capable of. ⸻ Observations • Buds are thickening daily • Resin production is clearly ramping up • Strong terpene expression already present • Plants are fully in sync with the environment • Water uptake confirms high metabolic activity They’re not just growing… they’re performing. ⸻ Looking Ahead — Week 7 Next week is where things usually shift from “building” to “refining.” Expect: • Increased density in the flowers • Noticeable swelling across all sites • Frost development accelerating • Terpenes becoming louder and more complex This is where patience matters. Stay consistent, don’t chase—just support what’s already happening. ⸻ Gratitude 🤝 Big thank you to everyone involved in this run: • The genetics — for the blueprint and expression • The gear — LEDs, tents, airflow, all the silent workers behind the scenes • The sponsors — for the support and trust • The GrowDiaries community — To the OGs, the long-time supporters, the new followers joining the journey… To the ones who show love, and even the ones who question—respect to all of you. This space grows because of all sides. And of course—GrowDiaries itself, for giving us a place to share, learn, and evolve together. ⸻ Week 6 flower. Fully in motion. Let’s see where they take us next.
