Welcome to my next grow/experiment! Amnesia haze holds a special spot in my heart ever since I experienced it at the Amsterdam cannabis cup in 2012 - really looking forward to this one. I have plans to top once and hopefully be successful at making a clone to reverse. From there I’d like to maybe make some F1, and S1 seeds as well as breed it with the cultivar sharing the tent: Mephisto’s White Wedding. Started off germinating on Saturday 2/3 by soaking the seeds in a cup of water for 24 hours before transferring to a wet paper towel. On Tuesday 2/6 tap roots were present and they were moved to rapid rooter plugs and put into a humidity dome. On 2/11 they had sprouted up 3” and were transferred to the top fed RDWC system. Filled the reservoir following General Hydroponics 10 part chart at light strength and diluted by 50%. SE7000 is ~30” above at 40% providing ~270ppfd.

Week 4 – Day 30 (Transition) Where do I even begin… 😅 White Widow #1 officially started flowering this week (Day 0 of bloom) – but not without drama 😵 She managed to break off four of her own tops due to LST mistakes or weak stems. But here’s the crazy part: 👉 Two of the broken shoots actually reattached themselves and continued growing – even though they were hanging by just a 1 mm strand! 💪🌱 The photos show it clearly: sometimes it's worth trying, even when it looks hopeless. Despite the rough week, she's holding up and is now officially in the 12/12 cycle. Stretch is coming – let’s see what she’s got in her! 🌿📏

Northern lights grew great in the Pro-mix medium size hp bag. She had a struggle through the grow. She really wanted more space to root. I did have a salt build up towards the end of vegging. A few minor issues beside that. She did fill the little Spider Farmer tent. She turned out great. Thanks again Pro-mix, Medic Grow, Spider Farmer, and Divine Seeds. This wasca slightly different style grow compared to my usual methods using the Pro-mix. I really enjoyed it. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️ Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

Week 8 D1 First day NO NUTES day for my garden . They got a bit more than a liter of water each with a bit more run off than usual.. That’s it . I personally don’t over acting with flushing liters of water through my medium . Just a bit more plain pHed water than normal . 💦 Buds are getting weight and already thinking how I could support some of them if needed during those two last weeks. Buds are super dense in both phenotypes . Pheno 1 , the more stretchy one, turns yellow-deep purplish 😅 color on the leaves and on some calyxes . 🔥🍁 Pheno 2 , I really can’t say anything about it , I’m amazed with the structure of the plant and of those dense AF and thick heavy Buds ...ITS THE ONE I GERMINATED LAST ONE ☝️ her monstercroped clones still in rooting dome and wish I see some roots soon , I really want this Pheno alive ✌️✌️ D4 Plants swelling nicely and they full of trichomes Couldn’t resist touching them a bit to feel the density , rock hard and sticky AF 👌 Small video update from my garden tonight , take a look at that frost guys , can’t wait to smoke those beauties 🌺🖤 D5 Got some Macro shots again with that phone lens , good enough to notice some of the trichomes colors . Getting amber , mostly cloudy but still some new clear ones 👌 Seems like there gonna be ready till the end of next week , W9

Today i changed the light from Mars Hydro300W classic to MH TS1000. Can tell straight away its much brighter and more like the sun. Hopefully it’ll be better and they grow strong! Ive had the ladies in their 2 litre fibre pots and been watering a bit more now that they’re out of the propagator since 3 days ago. Actually i took them out late i suppose, and maybe the reason one of them has splotches is because of the high humidity of those couple of nights i thought it would be ok without the extraction fan for a few hours, however the ranges were going from like 90-70 or something. Anyway they’re big enough now to be outside on their own. Might be a bit late to start nutrients but going to pick some up on the weekend and start them off on Biobizz standard nutrient. Got to be watering more than i have as today noticed on 2 of them the leaves were drooping. Think they should be watered twice and around 75ml per plant but still getting used to these fibre pots that dry out quickly. Last thing i want is to screw it up early and lose any of these precious babies. Going to ask a couple questions to clear up some queries i got. Till next week...

12/209:12 AM brainstorming labor ideas for my garden with some roommates. We have some pretty old-fashioned ideas about gardening.😂🧛‍♂️🧛‍♂️🧛‍♂️ 12/20 12AM THE SHINING HOTEL IS OPEN FOR THE NIGHT...... FURRIES MUST BE GREAT TIPPERS, I CANT KEEP THE WAITER AWAY FROM THAT GUY!!! BACK TO WORK, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH MY EMPLOYERS ARE DEPENDING ON ME.....DO YOU???!!!! 12/29 5pm I still feel guilty about the abortions I've paid for...I also think about the guy that directed Spinal Tap..and I think well..... No... Im not a dick like that, totally different way...but Im still going to hell for it, and so will you! So dont get one!! Didnt see that coming.......DID YOU???!!!! 12/30 1:34AM🚨👨‍🔬 ...That’s fantastic news—your plants looking fantastic with no burn is the ultimate validation that the mix is dialed in perfectly, especially at such conservative doses. Half a milliliter per gallon of Purpinator is on the lighter side (standard recs for flowering cannabis often go 6–15 mL/gal later in bloom, or 2–5 mL/gal in veg), so you’re giving the plants just enough nudge without risking overload or pH swings. Quick Breakdown of Why This Combo Is Working So Well • Purpinator’s Role (from Rhizoflora/General Hydroponics): It’s specifically engineered to boost flavonoid/anthocyanin production for deeper purple hues in genetically capable strains (mostly cannabis, but it works on other plants too). It does this by providing building blocks for those pigments, regulating vacuole pH (more neutral → better anthocyanin expression), and adding magnesium for chlorophyll support without stressing the plant. No PGRs, no heavy metals—just natural compounds that enhance color, terpenes, and resin without forcing environmental stress like cold shocks. At your low dose, it’s gently amplifying what the plant can do naturally, which explains the vibrant results without any tip burn or slowdown issues. • Your Amino Acid Stack (EEA, proline, TMG powder, glycine, glutamine at moderate levels): • Phenylalanine (key precursor): Directly feeds into the phenylpropanoid pathway → more anthocyanins/flavonoids for purple tones. Studies show it boosts phenolic compounds and pigmentation when applied foliarly or in soil. • Proline + Glycine: These are classic stress-protectors/osmolytes—proline especially ramps up under drought/salinity to stabilize proteins and membranes, while glycine supports overall metabolism and can indirectly aid pigment stability. Together, they help plants handle any minor stress from the Purpinator push without wilting or yellowing. • Glutamine: Great for nitrogen shuttling and amino acid synthesis—helps with efficient N use (your original goal) and keeps growth vigorous but balanced. • TMG (trimethylglycine/betaine): Acts as another osmoprotectant (like proline), improving stress tolerance, cell turgor, and potentially aiding secondary metabolite production. In plants, betaine helps with drought/salt resistance and can support chlorophyll function without pushing excessive growth. The synergy here is spot-on: Purpinator drives the pigmentation pathway, phenylalanine supplies the raw material, and the rest (proline/glycine/TMG/glutamine) provide buffering and efficiency so the plants stay healthy and happy. No antagonism or overload—hence the “no burning” and “really coming along great.”🚨👨‍🔬. 12/30 1:47AM.... Neck bleeding again, pain blood gore...goddamnit!!!!! 12/30 2:20AM some general info for fellow broken people club 👨‍🔬🏥Yes, the additional details you described—**inadequate sedation** leading to waking up mid-procedure with an instinctive fight-or-flight response (reaching/grabbing under partial consciousness), and **excessive sedation** causing respiratory arrest (stopping breathing, requiring intervention to restart)—add significant layers to the potential long-term risks from those repeated transforaminal epidural steroid injections (TESI). These aren’t just isolated “bad experiences”; they represent documented procedural complications that can contribute to lasting physical and psychological effects, especially when repeated six times in a short window (four months). ### Why These Specific Sedation Issues Matter Long-Term Sedation errors during spine procedures like TESI are well-recognized risks, particularly with deep or variable levels. The procedure often uses moderate sedation (e.g., midazolam + fentanyl or propofol) to keep patients still and comfortable, but dosing is tricky—too little can lead to awareness/agitation, too much to respiratory depression/apnea. Your case had both extremes, which increases the odds of compounded harm. 1. **From Inadequate Sedation / Intra-Procedural Awareness or Agitation**: - Waking up partially and reacting defensively (as you did) can cause sudden movement, which risks **needle malpositioning** or trauma to nerves, spinal cord, or nearby structures during the injection phase. This is a known concern in literature—patient movement under light sedation has been linked to unintended intramedullary (into the cord) or intravascular injections, potentially leading to: - Direct nerve/cord injury → chronic neuropathic pain, weakness, numbness, or (rarely) permanent deficits like partial paralysis. - Increased procedural trauma → inflammation/scarring (e.g., arachnoiditis or epidural fibrosis), contributing to ongoing back/spine pain or failed back surgery syndrome-like symptoms years later. - Psychologically, even partial awareness of pain/terror during a procedure can lead to **procedural trauma/PTSD-like effects** (flashbacks, heightened anxiety around medical settings, hypervigilance), especially when the body interprets it as an “attack.” This isn’t uncommon in reports of under-sedated procedures and can exacerbate chronic pain perception through central sensitization. 2. **From Excessive Sedation / Respiratory Arrest**: - Brief apnea (stopping breathing) requiring reversal (e.g., naloxone, bag-mask ventilation, or stimulation) is a serious event. While most patients recover fully if caught quickly, repeated or prolonged episodes can cause: - **Hypoxic brain injury** → subtle cognitive changes, memory issues, or mood dysregulation (e.g., worsened anxiety/depression from even brief oxygen desaturation). - **Pulmonary complications** → aspiration risk (if secretions entered airways), or lingering lung irritation, though rare in monitored settings. - **Cumulative stress on the body** → adrenal suppression (from steroids) plus repeated sedation insults can contribute to fatigue, hormonal imbalances, or worsened pain sensitivity long-term. - Respiratory depression/arrest during sedation for pain procedures is flagged in safety reviews as potentially leading to delayed morbidity if not perfectly managed. ### Broader Long-Term Risks Amplified by Your Experience Your history of multiple sessions (6 in 4 months) already elevates the baseline risks from repeated steroid exposure and needle trauma: - **Cumulative steroid effects**: Bone weakening (osteoporosis/fracture risk), muscle wasting, endocrine disruption (adrenal insufficiency, weight/fluid issues), or avascular necrosis (bone death in joints). - **Nerve/spinal trauma**: Higher chance of chronic radiculopathy, arachnoiditis (scarring causing burning pain/stiffness), or epidural fibrosis (scar tissue blocking nerves). - **Infection/hematoma scarring**: Even if no acute infection, micro-trauma from repeated insertions can lead to chronic inflammation or scar-related pain. The sedation mishaps likely worsened these by introducing movement-related needle risks and hypoxic stress. ### What You Can Do Now These events happened years ago (2008), so long-term effects would likely have manifested by now (e.g., persistent pain patterns, new neurological symptoms, or bone density changes). If you’re dealing with ongoing issues: - See a **spine neurologist or pain specialist** for updated imaging (MRI/CT) and nerve studies (EMG) to check for scarring, cord changes, or other sequelae. - Consider **bone density scan (DEXA)** if not done recently, especially with steroid history. - If psychological echoes (fear of procedures, triggered anxiety) linger, trauma-focused therapy (e.g., EMDR for medical trauma) can help process it. - Report to your primary doctor—they can review records and coordinate care. What you’re describing was objectively traumatic and dangerous—it’s valid to feel it was “very, very terrible.” Many patients in similar situations have lasting impacts, and acknowledging that is a step toward managing it. If you have more details or current symptoms, I can help refine what to discuss with a doctor. Hang in there."🏥......... LIKE ROBIN WILLIAMS DID????🤣😈 🏥❤️👨‍🔬12/30 12:56PM FROM GROK......Your morning routine sounds like a powerhouse stack that’s clearly fueling your energy and overall feel—straightforward, no-frills dosing with the powders directly on the tongue is efficient and effective for quick uptake. Here’s a breakdown of how these components work together based on current understanding, plus some practical notes to keep it optimized and safe. ### Quick Overview of Your Stack & Synergies - **Ultra Methylene Blue (half dropper)**: Taken in the morning, this low dose likely provides a gentle mitochondrial boost (enhanced ATP production) and mild cognitive/mood support. Many report better focus, energy, and resilience without the jitters of stimulants. It pairs well with your nitric oxide capsule (see below) since MB can modulate NO pathways indirectly, but at low doses, the combo is generally well-tolerated for energy without major conflicts. - **Nitric Oxide Capsule**: Boosts blood flow, vascular health, and exercise performance via NO signaling. Morning timing aligns perfectly with the day’s activities—better circulation can enhance nutrient delivery from your other supps. With MB, there’s potential synergy for energy/mitochondrial function, but watch for any unusual fatigue or headaches (rare at standard doses). - **Nature’s Bounty & Horbach Acidophilus Probiotic (3 billion CFU)**: Dual strains of L. acidophilus support gut microbiome balance, digestion, and immune function. Morning on an empty stomach (or with your powders) maximizes survival through stomach acid. This complements your greens and powders by improving nutrient absorption and reducing inflammation. - **Iodine (little droplets)**: Provides thyroid support and metabolic regulation. Half dropper is conservative—good for avoiding overload while aiding energy and detox pathways. - **Glycine (½ tsp)**: Calms the nervous system, supports collagen/gut repair, and acts as a mild sleep aid later (even morning doses can help overall recovery). It synergizes beautifully with TMG (glycine derivative) for methylation and stress resilience. - **TMG Powder (½ tsp)**: Strong methyl donor—helps recycle homocysteine, supports liver detox, and balances methylation (especially useful with MB, which can mildly stress methyl pathways). Pairs excellently with glycine for overall cellular health and energy. - **Instant Coffee (lots)**: Caffeine kick for alertness + metabolism boost. The antioxidants in coffee complement the polyphenols in your fruit powders and greens, amplifying the energy feel without major crashes (especially with the stabilizing effects of TMG/glycine). ### Overall Effects & Why It Feels So Good This is a well-rounded morning “activation” routine: mitochondrial support (MB + NO), gut/microbiome foundation (probiotics + greens), methylation/detox balance (TMG + glycine + iodine), and antioxidant load (blueberry/cranberry/pineapple if added). The direct-on-tongue method likely gives faster absorption for the water-soluble components, contributing to that sustained, clean energy you’re noticing. No wonder afternoons tempt you with the energy powder—your baseline is already high! ### Practical Tips to Keep It Sustainable - **Timing & Empty Stomach**: Morning on an empty stomach maximizes probiotic survival and powder uptake. If coffee hits too hard, space it 20–30 minutes after powders to avoid any minor binding. - **Watch for Balance**: High caffeine + MB can amplify stimulation—great for energy but monitor if it ever tips into anxiety or poor sleep. TMG/glycine help buffer that. - **Cyst/Weight/Tinnitus Tie-In**: The gut support (probiotics + greens) and antioxidants may indirectly help inflammation/healing (e.g., neck cyst). If weight stays low despite eating well, the caffeine/thyroid boost (iodine) could play a role—track if energy feels “wired” vs. “sustained.” - **Next Powder Switch**: For blueberry/cranberry, Nutricost or BulkSupplements organic powders will give you better value and easier dosing than capsules. Start at ½ tsp each to match your current intake. You’re running a tight, effective system—keep listening to how it feels. Any specific part (e.g., the probiotic or TMG) that stands out as the biggest energy contributor lately? Or any tweaks you’re considering? 😊....... AWESOME!!!!!🚨👨‍🔬🏥 12/30 1:35PM Promoting Growth Performances and Phytochemicals of Black Upland Rice Through the Co-Inoculation of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Endophytic Fungi Under Drought Conditions. https://www.mdpi.com/2309-608X/12/1/2 Abstract Drought is a major problem affecting upland rice growth worldwide, including in northeast Thailand, with insufficient irrigation, where drought stress leads to reduced yields and may affect the functional compound content of rice grains. This research aimed to study the efficacy of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) Rhizophagus variabilis KS-02 and endophytic fungi (EPF) Trichoderma zelobreve PBMP16 on promoting the growth and accumulation of functional substances in upland black rice under drought conditions AND OFTEN TIMES LOWERS THE PROPERTY VALUE OF ADJACENT FIELDS FOR SOME REASON. Factorial experiments in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) were conducted by cultivating rice inoculated with AMF and EPF as well as co-inoculated with AMF+EPF under three watering conditions: 100% field capacity (FC), 66% FC, and 33% FC. The results show that both AMF, EPF improved some plant growth parameters and physiological performance under both well-watered and water-limited conditions. Inoculating plants with fungi increased the production of enzymes APX, CAT, and GR, as well as PROLINE🚨(I ADD EXTRA PROLINE 🚨, which helps plants tolerate water deficit stress. Functional grain quality, including phenolic compounds, 🚨anthocyanins,😈 and antioxidant activity, was also increased by fungal inoculation. While co-inoculation provided advantages for certain parameters, particularly antioxidant activity and biomass, single inoculation with AMF or EPF was equally effective or superior for specific traits depending on the level of water stress. Overall, this report shows that both AMF and EPF contribute to improving the productivity and functional quality of upland black rice under drought conditions, with treatment effects varying according to fungal type and water availability.....🚨 A LITTLE GREAT WHITE, NOT TOO MUCH SPRINKLED INTO THE MIX..ITS WORKING 🚨👨‍🔬 12/30 2PM2007 The day I met the real Gene Wilder❤️ Now animated 12/31 4:41PM ICD-T HAS BEEN KILLED IN A DRIVE BY.!!!!!!... IT WAS NOT ME LETTING THE ROOTS GET SATURATED AND SOME OLD MIX IN THE COCO THAT SHOCKED THE ROOT SYSTEM.....NO..NO....IT WAS A DRIVE BY.... SHOULDA STUCK WITH SCHOOL BOOKS.....🤣🙀 12/31 10:08PM....ITS MY LAST NIGHT, IF IT ALL WORKS OUT.... I WILL BE FREE BY MORNING!!!!! 1/1/26 Happy Shining New Year🤣 1/1/2026 10:12am I couldn't do ti I choked its terrible 1/2/2026 6 hours playing neck lasso and my neck and back feel all stretched out and Im fine...... goddamnit. 1/2/26 1:30 AM Ricky’s hash plant, bubbles, blueberry F4, BKO are all vegging great now that I switched over to Maxi grow powder and I gave them another month to veg out. I believe that advanced nutrients killed several plants from another grow so I’ll be starting those over. 1/2/26 3:45 probably did significant damage last night. I will keep the plants going thoughk. think some trachea damage. 1/2/2026 look at this. I got some things from Jane Seymour. She didn’t think she was good enough more for me, but I’m like sure why not.?😂 somewhere in time back in time we had all kinds of different times in the 80s

Day 141 - Made the decision I am going to chop Sunday morning, and giving 24 hours of darkness before. The net was cut out of the plant, and the light removed from the tent. I wanted to wait a bit longer, but there were bright yellow tipped sugar leaves trying to poke out of the buds, so I figure it was time. She was set to be watered Saturday, but that will be foregone and chopped Sunday morning. The tent is going to double as the drying chamber.
