Ciao ragazzi e bentornati qui con me e la Mimorange 🍊 Le ragazze sono fantastiche nessun segno di stress apprte qualche puntino strano sulle foglie dovuto sicuramente a dei piccoli acari che non riesco a vedere. Ho comunque provveduto a spruzzare loro con una soluzione apposta a base di olio di Neem.🤞 La numero 3 ha raggiunto la sorella numero 2 mentre la pianta numero 1 ha superato loro di almeno 15 cm. Infatti è lei la bestia da 140 cm, con 4 belle apicali da almeno 80 cm.💪🔝 Ho defogliato loro nel giorno 58 e mantengo i nuts costanti fino alla fine👍 Eh niente ragazzi! Siamo giunti al termine della settimana 9 e siamo CAMPIONI D' EUROPA!!!🏆🥇 GRANDI AZZURRI💙 🇮🇹FORZA ITALIA🇮🇹 Grazie a tutti per aver guardato e restate sintonizzati per nuovi aggiornamenti🙏 Buona settimana e felice crescita 🌱 🌱 🌱

Happy Halloween cannafam! 🎃 Everyone continues to stretch and seem to be fully transitioned into flowering. Since today is Halloween, the girls got a special treat this morning; 10ml of my homebrew pumpkin FPE and 10ml of my pear FFJ😁. So far they seem to be loving it but I will continue to monitor them, obviously.

🌱 Nectar Drip Update Week 8 from Seed · Week 2 Flower (12/12 from seed) Quick recap for anyone joining us now: This run is a 12/12 from seed experiment, meaning each plant chose on its own when to enter flower. Because of that, flower timing is not perfectly synchronized — and that’s an important part of this grow and of the decisions we’re making. We’re working with an exclusive collaborative genetic pack, not commercially available anymore, bred for stability, vigor, and resilience. What you see here is a real-world expression of those genetics, grown without chasing trends or hype — just observation, patience, and consistency. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Feeding (Why We Changed Nothing) This week, we deliberately changed nothing. • Day temperature: ~28 °C • Relative Humidity: ~65% • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 • Plant height: ~40 cm to ~80 cm • Lighting: LED Many growers would say these temperatures are “too high for flower,” but context matters. Under LED lighting, leaf surface temperature typically runs 2–4 °C cooler than room temperature. Because of that, we focus on leaf VPD, not room VPD. The plant is what matters — not the number on the wall. We are not chasing numbers. We are paying attention to them. The plants are responding perfectly: • Lush, deep green foliage • No signs of stress • Strong internodal structure • Uniform uptake across different phenotypes When the plant is happy, stability beats adjustment. That’s why the nutrient recipe stayed exactly the same. ⸻ ✂️ Defoliation — Why This Week, Why This Way This week marked an important decision. Normally, defoliation would happen around day 21 of flower. But in a 12/12-from-seed run, there is no universal day 21. Each plant entered flower on its own schedule. The room was getting dense. Airflow was being restricted. Light penetration was becoming uneven. So we listened to the plants — not the calendar. We opened the canopy, improved airflow, and allowed the plants to: • Breathe better • Receive more uniform light • Push growth upward instead of inward We’ll be honest: 👉 We went harder than planned. But it was a conscious decision, not an emotional one. Leaves removed were healthy — not sick — which tells us the plant had energy to spare. The remaining structure is strong, clean, and well-shaped. ⸻ 🛠️ Training & Recovery • Structural branches previously damaged were taped last week • All repaired nodes bounced back perfectly • Plastic clips are still being used dynamically — on and off — to guide shape, not force it This tells us everything we need to know about the genetics: stable, resilient, forgiving, and strong. ⸻ 🔮 What We Expect Next After a hard defoliation, plants tell the truth quickly. What we expect: • Fast rebound • Vertical push toward the light • Strong flower site development • Clean airflow through the canopy If they slow down, we listen. If they explode, we let them run. So far, these girls are behaving like champions. ⸻ ❤️ Final Words & Gratitude To everyone reading this — the supporters, the critics, the silent observers: You all have a place here. Growth doesn’t happen without contrast. Learning doesn’t happen without mistakes. And progress doesn’t happen without conversation. Thank you to: • The platform • The OGs • The new followers • The sponsors • The lovers and the haters We treat everyone the same. Criticism is welcome. Questions are encouraged. This is Nectar Drip — honest, detailed, educational, and real.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.

First week of flowering for plants #2 #3 #4 #5 #11 #12. The other six have been transplanted into 3 gallon containers to continue growing in veg until I harvest the first six. All 12 plants are female! ( lucky roll with regular seeds). Really curious to see which of these girls will win the first round of the pheno hunt.

little clone lollipops still partying. Just hand watering ever couple days, or throwing one of the drip rings into the pot once in a while. I also am rotating the pot a 1/4 turn when I remember. Will probably move this out from under the shade this week cause I think they've gotten used to the flower lights and will bud soon.

Hey Cannafam, Its been a fairly good week for my gal, weve had wall to wall sunshine and shes loving life in the growth department. Shes had a couple of feeds and her colour has further improved. However she is being munched by various parties, her very lowest couple of leaves were covered on aphid eggs which i removed earlier in the week, also some further leaf miner damage although not extensive required removal of another couple of leaves and lastly frog hoppers having a nibble. To be honest im just glad its not slugs and shes weathering things well, although i have been looking for some ladybirds to pop on her, but so far no luck. Ive also popped her back on her hiding place as she is becoming much more noticable both in size and also smell. Shes also started getting her purps on and buds are now starting to develop proper 😁💜💜💜 The Sunshines set to continue for the next week so happy days 😊 Thanks for stopping by and stay safe ✌️💚💚💚

Growth has finally picked up a bit with this girl she's bushing like crazy and noticed over the last few days she is using more feed/water now and is producing a lot of budding sites did some defoliation and tucked a few branches stripped a bit of waste materials from under the canopy to give extra energy to the tops happy week so far.... 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
