So she was chopped (wet trimmed) yesterday (F74) and is now hanging up to dry at 55% RH and temps between 15 and 18ºc. I made fresh frozen dry ice hash today using a 160 micron bubble bag, a flat surface, 8kg of dry ice and a couple 5 gal buckets. I already have the weights for that, which far exceeded my expectations. Those figures I will post once she is dried and in 1 quart screw top glass jars. People suppose dry ice hash is inferior quality vs bubble hash. I am not experienced enough to comment on that but must say it is extremely easy to make hash with dry ice, it took 40 mins to process 995g of trim which included sugar leaves, some stems and popcorn buds. I then pressed it into 3.5g briquettes for storage using a pollen press. As you can see from videos, this stuff is all blonde - and after already trying some today with some friends, it knocked our boots off! Will be back in 5-7 days with harvest figures, smoke analysis and other details! Happy growing all! P.s I ticked defoliation this week - the only week I intentionally cut any leaves off for the entire grow 😉

🌸 Sundae Driver — Week 9 Flower / Week 12 From Seed When the plant decides it’s time… you listen! Another beautiful, crazy, unforgettable week in our Sundae Driver adventure! The tent has been full of aromas, colors, and emotions — and this week brought a little surprise twist. Our Pheno #2, the bold one, the heavy one, decided she couldn’t hold her own weight anymore and literally bowed to gravity. When I arrived, half of her was on the ground, saying: “It’s time, my friend. Harvest me.” And honestly, she was right. Perfect trichomes, perfect colors — it was exactly her moment. So, we harvested her with love, laughter, and respect. Sometimes, nature tells you what to do, and all you can do is listen. We didn’t dry her whole as we usually do — since she broke herself in half, we had to go with a different approach this time. A reminder that every grow has its own personality and surprises. We took it as part of the adventure and had a good laugh about it — because in the end, that’s what growing is: learning, adapting, and enjoying every step. Meanwhile, her sister Pheno #3 is still standing tall and absolutely shining. She’s thriving under the LUMATEK, with her buds swelling beautifully, trichomes sparkling like sugar dust, and her structure holding strong (for now!). 🌱 Nutrients & Environment This week we’re keeping the mix balanced — still using the Plagron PowerBuds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation, together with Aptus Regulator and CalMag Boost. Our pH sits nicely around 6.1, EC around 0.7, and the soil is still rich enough to carry the girls through these final stages. Temperatures hover around 28°C, humidity slightly high at 60+, but both phenos have been adapting beautifully. 🌿 About the Harvest For Pheno #2 — the early harvest wasn’t planned, but it turned out perfect. The trichomes were milky with just a few ambers, the aroma intense, and the density incredible. This shows that sometimes the plants truly know best. Her colas were so heavy they couldn’t stand anymore — that’s a good problem to have! 💪 Super Crop & Structure The earlier super crop training clearly paid off — the buds on the bent tops were some of the thickest and frostiest of all. It’s beautiful to see how resilience leads to strength; those stress points turned into power centers for growth. 🧠 What to Expect & What Not to Expect • Expect Pheno #3 to keep maturing beautifully over the next week or two — trichomes are developing wonderfully, and aromas are getting more complex by the day. • Don’t expect her to rush. She’s taking her sweet time, and that’s perfectly fine — every flower deserves her full moment. • Expect me to keep double-checking the branches — after what happened with #2, I’m making sure no more girls decide to “self-harvest” behind my back. 😂 💬 P.S. — About Holding the Weight For those reading this — always support your branches properly during late flower! When the buds get heavy (and believe me, they will), the stems can only handle so much. It’s always better to tie, stake, or net them before nature makes the decision for you. Trust me, it’s a funny story after the fact… but quite the shock when you find half your plant bowing to the floor. 💬 P.P.S. — About Super Cropping & Experimentation For anyone afraid to try new techniques — this is living proof that super cropping works beautifully and that plants are incredibly resilient. Don’t be afraid to experiment, to bend, to learn, and to adapt. Each grow is a new journey, and your plants will always reward your courage with lessons and beauty. 💚 Final Words & Gratitude As always, I want to send a massive thank-you to everyone following this journey — the readers, growers, dreamers, learners, and friends who stop by the diary. Your presence, comments, and good vibes make this all worthwhile. A special thanks to Zamnesia for the genetics, LUMATEK LED for the incredible light performance, Plagron and Aptus Holland for the outstanding nutrients and additives, and of course TrollMaster for helping keep everything perfectly dialed in. And to everyone out there — whether you’re just starting or have been growing for years — remember that every plant, every week, every harvest teaches something new.

Got some nice fluorescence popping in the upper half of the plant. Top dressing a little (2tsp) 4-4-4 NPK, just for safety as some of the leaves are lightening in color. Probably too much water, but I will let her dry out too. Got a lot of great spears/cones developing.

Week 1 - The ladies are starting to produce more nodes, they seem like they are loving the fish tank water (Doing as experiment). Plant to Right Front had a leaf issue, one leaf had combined, other had 1 missing leaf (See in Pictures). Once Tall enough will start LST. Using Spider Farm SF4000, Growing 4 Northern Light Autos by Seedsman in 5 gal Fabric Pots, 70/30 coco perlite mix, with Living soil at bottom 1/3s of Pot. Going to attempt getting better at documenting more accurately. Hope you enjoy, check out my Socials!

Tough going first few weeks going to look close on the postmortem for the roots and see if I can tell what was causing the issues with Phos, Ca, Mg lockouts. Foliar saved the day Was very disappointed in the germination rate which caused delays in grow cycle and threw off my whole grow system. It forced me into 7 gallon pots to try and save the yield and THAT may be where the issues arose with the pots, I had to use another bin of soil for the extra soil. Still I should have known better and just stuck with the 5 gallon pots but was trying to get yield. Worked too on Layla and Maggie, nothing was going to help the stunting on Brandy which I dropped from the grow. So 60% germination is not acceptable unless its tomatoes... Dont get me wrong though, this strain has a LOT of good qualities, it not only survived my foul up but produced one excellent plant and one monster out of the three that germed. May try it again next year, think it would be stellar in coco. Beyond that a quality product, just had issues. Easy-ish trim and harvest For numbers on Layla (Week 12) 12/19 HARVEST DAY LAYLA wet yield 578 grams Dry weight 219 grams Maggie wet weight 886 grams Into dry DRY weight 255g Layla 219g + Maggie 255g = 474g Not letting me rate the Aurora Innovations Soul Peak PK and Finisher I give it 4 stars

Tangie'Matic coming along nicely. Nice size buds, smells really good, and good color overall. She's quite a bit smaller than my first Tangie'Matic. But I have a feeling this girl is going to taste better (fingers crossed).

she's been in flush for nearly a week. still about another week left, im loving this strain. Been an easy grow, was still hungry for nitrogen early flower other than that has been a breeze, has luscious dense sour buds top to bottom, mephistos genetics are the best when it comes to autos that's for sure

Got a little behind on the defol. but everything runnin smoothly besides that. I lost a fight wit a greenhouse and he bruised my ribs. Been gettn around a little slow. Then on top of that broke my phone again ya kno, because im retarded. That makes life difficult sumtimes. Just given em a gal of water and a recharge, coconut/aloe water mix rotated every 3 or 4 days and trying to stay out of the way. I had an issue wit the blumats so just turned it off about a week ago. Ill get around to fixen it eventually....50/50 on if thatll b during this run. Member berry grew weird but turned into a monster, purple punch is standing out and so is the wedding cake and gorilla blue. And obviously the D is lookin lovely as always. Im down to 13 because i cut a gsc. It was a long shot from the start and didnt want to risk a hermie. Cant wait to finish this run so that i can make a plan for outside. Form sum kinda ranking. How many of which plant goes where and all that. I kno...I Kno I take shitty pics🤷

The plant is drinking over 3 gallons of water every day. I’ve lowered the PPM’s to 600. Everything seems to be ok now. I will try to change the reservoir water every 5 days from now on. She started to smell amazing! Very lemony 🍋 P.S. Lowerd the TDS to 550 PPM on day 46. Also just realized that I stressed my plan with to much light. I moved the light at 13” and dimmed to 95% ... I will continue to dim it 2% every day...
