Buds growing nicely in size. Thrichomes forming on the sugar leaves. Looking nice and frosty!

Week 13 from seed. Week 9 of flower. And this one matters. Not because everything changed overnight — but because this is where the run starts showing its final intentions. One plant came down, one plant keeps going, and both are teaching something different. This week marks the point where observation becomes more important than intervention. The work is mostly done now. What happens here is less about pushing, and more about reading. Watching. Letting the plant finish saying what it has to say. From seed to now, this run has stayed simple on purpose. 12/12 from seed, steady environment, minimal overcorrection, and a consistent approach from start to finish. No chasing numbers, no dramatic swings, no last-minute magic tricks. Just stable inputs, careful observation, and letting the cultivar express itself without interruption. And that is exactly what this week reflects. One of the two plants was harvested this week — not because she was clearly ahead, and not because the other was behind, but because this stage offers a rare opportunity to compare expression across harvest timing. Same cultivar, same room, same feed, same environment — slightly different finish line. That is useful information, especially when the goal is not just yield, but understanding the medicine at different stages of maturity. This is less about “ready” and more about reference. One plant comes down now to show what this cultivar offers at this point in ripeness. The second stays standing to show what another few days may add, remove, or transform. That kind of side-by-side tells more than any chart ever will. The room itself remains unchanged and stable. Conditions are still exactly where they have been: controlled, calm, and predictable. No changes to the environment, no major changes to irrigation, and no attempt to force a finish. At this stage, consistency is the strategy. Feeding is now reduced to enzymes only. No base nutrients, no boosters, no extras — just enzymes and water. At this point, the plant is no longer building aggressively. She is finishing. Enzyme-only irrigation helps break down residual organic matter in the substrate, keeps the root zone active and clean, and allows the plant to continue consuming what it has already stored internally. This is not about “flushing” in the old dramatic sense. It is simply about removing excess input and allowing the plant to finish on what it already carries. And she is using it beautifully. This is where the fade begins to tell the truth. The shifting leaf color isn’t decline — it is redistribution. Nitrogen is being pulled, chlorophyll is breaking down, stored resources are moving, and the plant is redirecting what remains into final reproductive output. That is why the greens soften. That is why purples begin to appear. That is why red tones start surfacing through senescence and cooler expression. This is the plant using herself completely. And visually, she is doing it with style. There is color now in every direction — softened greens, faded lime, muted reds, touches of purple, and that late-flower pale glow that only shows up when a plant is actually finishing instead of just aging. The flowers are dense, compact, and fully formed. Resin is heavy. Structure is holding. Light still catches everything. The room is shining. Both plants are carrying weight well. Dense tops, compact flowers, strong stacking, and resin coverage from crown to lower sites. No loose finish, no empty tops, no weak lower structure. Even now, late into flower, she still looks composed. The harvested plant came down thick. Big structure, strong frame, dense flower, and stems with enough development to show those hollow internal channels that often appear in vigorous, well-fed, fast-moving growth. Frost coverage is heavy, texture is compact, and she carried herself like a proper finisher from top to bottom. She is now drying in a rack rather than hanging whole — not as a stylistic choice, just a practical one. Space dictates workflow sometimes, and good growing means adapting without romanticizing process. Same plant, same finish, different drying logistics. The important part is controlled handling from here. And during harvest, she gave a little extra. Fresh finger resin from harvest always deserves its own note. What collects on the fingers during live harvest is not the same material as what comes later during dry trim. Similar in origin, different in state. Fresh harvest resin is live expression — warm, volatile, aromatic, soft, and immediate. It is closer in spirit to charas in the traditional sense: resin gathered from living plant material by direct contact, long before modern processing tried to standardize everything. That matters, because what is collected in that moment still carries a different volatile profile than what comes later from dry trim. Dry trim finger hash is still resin. Fresh harvest finger resin is living resin. They are related, but they are not the same conversation. And for people who have never paid attention to that difference, this is one of those details worth learning once and never forgetting. The second plant remains standing, and she is still earning her place. Still dense. Still shining. Still building. Not dramatically, not explosively — just quietly continuing. And that is the point now. Late flower is no longer about visible daily change. It is about subtle shifts. Trichome maturity. Water behavior. Leaf surrender. Aroma transition. Hidden risk. Final swelling. This is where “not doing much” becomes one of the most active parts of the entire cycle. Because this is the stage where small mistakes matter most. Now is when you watch for ripeness. Now is when you watch for overstay. Now is when you watch for mold that never comes. Now is when you watch for trichomes instead of pistils. Now is when restraint becomes part of the skillset. She may come down next week. She may ask for a little more. That decision will not be made by calendar — it will be made by what the plant says next. And that is where we leave her. One harvested. One still speaking. Both worth listening to. Big love to everyone following this run — old heads, new eyes, silent watchers, loud supporters, curious growers, skeptics, believers, and everyone who gave this diary even a second of attention. To the GrowDiaries platform. To the community. To the people who watch closely. To the ones who question everything. To the ones who just came for pretty flowers and stayed for the process. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the feed. To the gear keeping the room steady. To the people behind the brands. To the growers behind the screens. And to both plants for doing exactly what they were supposed to do. Week 13. Week 9 flower. One down. One still glowing. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

💪I'm Seeding today on Thu,22 June 2023. MADCAT - ADMIN

Seeds were soaked until the taproot was showing then placed into peat plugs. They stayed in here for 5 days in total, 2 days after the had popped so I classed it as a whole week. They were then placed into they’re final homes, 23 litre fabric pots

Let's see how it goes. I raised up the water so it is now 150ml 2x per plant so 300 per plant per day. The same with fertilization and the same days remain. I keep 14 hours darkness and 10 hours light schedule for Purple Punch obviously I take out from the tent and put separately. I can't wait to harvest the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe so I can use the tent for the Purple Punch. I give 18 hours light on so 12 hours on 4 hours off and 6 hours on 2 hours off. Basically, it was the only solution because I put the Purple Punch in at 23:00 o clock and take out at 9 am. So the light on from 23:00 to 11 am and then 15:00-21:00 and off from 21:00 to 23:00. It was the only good way based on my timeline working hours and school. I also see the first signs of flowering after 7 days of light schedule change of the Purple Punch. Hope it goes well. They have a totally different smell, both strong, but the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is like sweet and aromatic, and also like a muck heap 🤐😅👻The Purple Punch has strong smell but not sweet more like citrus. Saturday: I always had some yellow fan leaves but now it is getting more on the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe. Hopefully, it causes the flowering stage because the plant wants to use the energy for buds making and takes out of the leaves, so it is a natural process. I read that it means the plant is on the halfway of the flower. Hope the best. Tuesday: Purple Punch does well flowering, and the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe I think one more week so I will start flushing from tomorrow. I have checked the trichomes, they are cloudy, milky and the pistils started getting brown also so soon it will be done. The fan leaves also getting yellow as it can be seen so I think the next is the final week, if not then no more than 2 weeks and it is done. I can't really wait... End of this week Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is 70cm and the Purple Punch is 40 cm.

Amber trichomes are starting to form, we're cloudy in most sections but there's still a bunch of clear a little deeper in. This is probably their last full week..we cut all nutrients nearly a month ago and have been watering heavy (as we typically do during flush) but they have only lightened slightly, we use a soilless media which should be completely flushed out by now but most the leaflets are still super dark, after seeing several other grows of this strain we assume it must be characteristic of B.B..we have 4 grow areas in our grow room and the Bangers can be smelled over everything else.. It smells like Fruit Loops with notes of gasoline 🍓⛽...The SP-3000 by MarsHydro is an absolute beast in a 4x2, this is our 2nd grow under The SP-3000 and we completely filled the 4x2 on both occasions. Each run resulted in massive, compact Buds just covered in resin..its without a doubt the best LED of its size we have in house or have ever been privileged to use honestly... Full disclosure: we got a little impatient starring at these girls, so we (well I did lol) pulled down a bud 2 days ago (approx. 10grams) and immediately threw it in the oven for decarb..we made a 5oz batch of tincture and this is easily the "speediest" Seedsman strain I've tried to date, its a surprisingly clear headed high, definitely a daytime smoke..however, may have a different opinion after a proper dry and cure..we'll update our smoke report after drying...thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️💡🌱 ⚡Mars Hydro/SP-3000⚡ Specifications ⚙️: Diodes: Samsung LM301B / Osram 660nm (960 total!)

Really can't complain about this plant. Despite her nutrient lockout issue, she turned out perfectly, and I couldn't be happier with the yield considering she was crammed in my tent with the other two plants. Definitely the most dense buds I've grown to date as well. Can't wait to grow again with more room and possibly a larger pot size 👌

Iniziamo il risciacquo delle radici .. è carica di nutrienti ci vorrà un po' per smarrirsi tutti ora speriamo di aver azzeccato i tempi. Due settimane di acqua totale e poi si taglia!!

The smell is getting intensive!

Beginning of week.. Such weird bud structure.. Love the smell.. Fruity asf.. Since nights haven't been as cool as they were before, the colors seem to have stopped on the calyxes. The old ones are still purple, but the newer calyxes don't have any coloring.. Still a pretty mix of purples and greens.. The leaves look like they should not be an issue when trimming whatsoever.. They are huge.. Even at the tip top of the colas, so far.. The lollipopping could have been kept a node or 2 lower.. I should have nothing but massive top colas tho.. I can live with that.. Lol. I'm still finding my sweet spots with alot of things lol.. Trying to use a LUX Meter and convert to PAR to figure out how much my girls are getting. Lately, I've burned a few tops.. Not too bad.. didnt hurt the yield or trichomes too much.. But noticeable.. So I'm trying to find the sweet spot and still be able to just cut the power of the light down, lower the light toward the canopy so I can also avoid the summer heat which is coming.. So far, I can run this light at 50%, but keeping it about 14 inches above the conopy.. By harvest, I should be able to get away with 75% power at about 12-14 inches.. Just one plant and the footprint of the light is pretty wide.. So it should still get branch to branch pretty evenly.. Stoned ramblin hah! Mid week.. Wow.. These colas are getting massive! She didnt stretch much at all, if any. So, I lollipopped a bit high, in my opinion. But these colas are gonna be so massive, it shouldn't even matter at this point lol. She has ALOT of leaves and they are REALLY getting thick in there.. There isn't much airflow getting around these colas.. I should probably get a fan on there.. Or maybe defoliate a bit.. Not sure really now.. But damn, these colas are HUGE!.. they aren't very long, but holy shit there are getting so fat! Very fruity scent.. Pretty strong but still has plenty of time to get even stronger.. Wow. This autoflower is nothing like the White Widow auto.. That's for sure.. The white widow buds stay kinda small.. Airy.. They must have used a different auto to breed with.. Or maybe the white widow reg. version just isn't a big yielder.. Blah whatever.. This girl needs something changed quick tho.. Either a fan or defoliate more.. Or both.. A growmie just had some bud rot on one of his heavy yielding autos.. Never had the issue before and I don't plan on having it EVER. This is a very good, productive week so far. Next day.. I had to defoliate for sure.. And even pulled the branches down a bit more to help open her up some. I did not expect these colas to do this at all.. I even raised up my oscillating fan so that it's moving air above and below the canopy pretty well now.. Should be fine 🤞... Another thing.. The leaves are SUPER dark green.. The tops have some clawing and the leaves that are hidden away (mostly sugar leaves) do too.. I brought the FloraMicro down to .66 mL/L but I think I'm going to go down a bit further.. My last grow did this too and I went down to .5 mL/L and still ended the run with the issues.. So.. Damn.. Should I just cut it out completely? The colas are already so damn huge.. I just need them to swell up a bit and I can already tell I'm gonna be more than happy with the outcome. I guess I will just bring it down to .33 mL/L.. Eaiser to measure out that way for me too.. She shouldn't struggle or even notice any change.. The only thing I could see hurting is the lack of the Calcium in the FloraMicro.. But I'm going to see if bringing the Micro down that much will help this claw crap from spreading.. So still very happy with this run.. Not bad, ILGM.. Not bad at all.. End of week.. Yeah definitely going down to .33mL/L on the FloraMicro.. I'm sure she will be fine till harvest. No other issues should pop up. She is looking and smelling gorgeous as fuuuuck! She is already so dense and thick.. This is gonna be a nice harvest.. On to the next!...

Week Seven Flipping to flower was a good idea because of the 6 plants in this little space. They all got into stretch and I had to adjust the light a few times. The gorilla cookies (front right) is the smallest and slowest, the gg4 sherbet is also pretty small (back mid), the orange sherbet. (Frond mid) almost catched up to the other older plants. The sfv purps (front left) stretched a bit, some sidebranches shot up, which is very nice. The gelato (back left) stretched more than the sfv and shows nice flowers starting to grow. The bagseed (back right) shot up the most with 3 big colas. All plants got a topdessing and mulch from hemp clippings. I water every to every other day with 0,5 to 1 liter. The tent got filled up pretty fast and I’m fighting the urge to defoliate. Plan to wait till day 21 of flower. Thanks for reading.

Comecei a semana realizando o treinamento de baixo estresse e uma desfoliação. Nao fiz poda top, não acho que seja adequado para plantas rápidas. VVamos ver como vai ser o resultado . Nao pretendo mais fazer intervenções no crescimento .

Week 8
