It was an honor! Hat Von Anfang bis Ende Spaß gemacht die Dame. Mal Probleme gehabt mit Fäule, nach Kontakt mit Regen! Im Wintergarten untergebracht, musste die Fäule weichen. Ne ohne Spaß, hat einfach aufgehört zu faulen und mega produziert! Denke aber ohne greenhouse eher ein Fall für den Kompost geworden;)☮️

Germination, that says it all! #2 (ghost OG) and #3 (gravely Ghost) popped tails in 24 hours #4 (sour Ghost Kush) popped tail in 48 hours #1 (ghost Beach)popped, but seed did not fully crack and taproot got stuck. I did not notice in time and it died. Dropped a second seed on day 4 and germinated in 24 hours Each seed planted in damp soil once taproot popped. Soil moistened with 250ml per pot in germination area. Voodoo juice in water and Dynomyco in soil blend.

La culture c’est dans son ensemble bien passée. La critical+2.0 est une herbe plutôt facile à faire pousser. Je suis un peu déçu du rendement, mais je pense que cela ne provient pas de la génétique, mais plutôt de mon expérience qui demande à être améliorer encore. Et peu être aussi augmenter la puissance de la lampe pour obtenir des buds encore plus grosses. Je ferais un update pour le smoke review.

✨ Week 6 in bloom and our White Widow is pure poetry in motion — compact, dark, and sparkling with trichomes under her 11/13 light dance. She’s living proof that beauty and strength can thrive even under a 12-12 from seed rhythm. Join the journey, feel the energy, and come see her story unfold in 4K on YouTube. 🎥💚 🌿 White Widow – Week 6 Flower Lighting: 11/13 Shuttle (12-12 from Seed) Strain: White Widow by Zamnesia Grow Style: Living Super Soil + Aptus x Plagron Recipe Series: Ongoing on YouTube (in 4K 🎥) ⸻ 🌸 The Queen in Her Prime Our White Widow is officially in full bloom — Week 6 Flower, and she’s breathtaking. Compact, dark, resinous, and powerful — a perfect example of what’s possible when we trust the process. Her leaves are deep green, her buds are tight and frosty, and her structure shows the elegance of genetics and discipline combined. Despite being a 12/12 (11/13) from seed grow, she’s performing like a true photoperiod queen. Every detail on her — from the sugar-coated fan leaves to the symmetry of her bud sites — tells a story of health and balance. ⸻ 💡 The Emerson Effect — Science Meets Soul This week we’re diving deep into one of the coolest aspects of this grow: The Emerson Effect 🌞 Every morning, the red spectrum (around 660 nm) turns on 15 minutes before the main lights. Every evening, it stays on 15 minutes longer than the rest. Why? Because we’re mimicking nature — sunrise and sunset — and activating one of the most fascinating plant processes ever discovered. 🌱 What It Does The Emerson Effect is the enhanced rate of photosynthesis that occurs when red and far-red light (around 730 nm) are present together. In simple terms: red light excites one photosystem, far-red excites the other, and when both are active, the plant runs its photosynthesis engine at maximum efficiency. ⚗️ The Results • Faster and smoother metabolic transitions • Reduced light stress during on/off cycles • Increased photosynthetic efficiency • Denser, more resinous buds • Slightly faster maturity under 11/13 schedules We’re not just flipping lights — we’re syncing biology with physics. 🌞🌙 ⸻ ⚙️ Technical Deep Dive: Emerson Effect + 11/13 Light Shuttle For the enthusiasts — when using 11 hours of light and 13 of dark, you simulate tropical photoperiods where cannabis evolved naturally. This encourages faster flower initiation and more compact plant structure. By extending the far-red light 15 minutes on both sides of the cycle, we’re signaling the plant that the sun is just beyond the horizon. It’s like whispering: “Keep going a little longer, but rest well.” This combination strengthens the balance between flower hormone production (phytochrome response) and photosynthetic drive, leading to better overall bud development. Science + intuition = success. 🌿 ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition This week’s feeding schedule continues the successful Aptus x Plagron symbiosis. From Plagron: 🌸 Power Buds – flower development booster 🍯 Sugar Royal – enhancing aroma, oil, and terpene profile 💎 Green Sensation – late-phase bulking and resin enhancer From Aptus: 🌿 All-in-One Liquid – full-spectrum nutrition 💧 CalMag Boost – mineral support and stability ⚖️ Regulator – nutrient balance and plant stress protection Even with the soil’s natural nutrient reserve (NPK still holding around 5.75), we’re gently pushing — testing how much she can handle under this 12/12 rhythm. She’s loving it: no burn, no droop, no stress — just pure growth. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions Even with 45°C (110°F) heat outdoors, the grow room remains stable and healthy thanks to proper airflow and control. 📊 Environment Stats: 🌡️ Temperature: 28–30°C 💧 Humidity: 55–60% ☁️ CO₂: 450–800 ppm (natural fluctuation) 📈 VPD: ~1.3–1.8 kPa This is near-perfect for mid-flower — warm enough to boost metabolism, yet steady enough to maintain trichome production. ⸻ 📸 Photos & Videos This week’s gallery includes: 📷 Detailed studio shots of her canopy and buds 🎥 Clips showing her daily environment 🌿 A moment of me sharing medicine with her — part of our daily ritual of connection and gratitude Screenshots from TrolMaster TM+ app, showing the red-light pre-dawn and sunset cycles Every frame captures her strength and personality. No micro lens this time, but the natural look says it all — she’s glowing. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Expect: ✨ Buds bulking and trichomes stacking heavily 🌬️ Aroma deepening and resin turning more opaque 🌿 Leaf color possibly darkening further Not to Expect: 🌱 Any major new growth — stretch phase is over 🍂 Fade just yet — that will come closer to flush She’s now in the consolidation phase: weight, flavor, and resin. ⸻ 🌱 Quick Recap • Germination: After early setbacks, she became the solo survivor — and a star. • Veg: Compact and steady. • Transition: Adapted perfectly to 11/13 shuttle. • Early Flower: Tight nodes, dense frost. • Now: Week 6 — full bloom, full potential. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude & Shoutouts 💚 Zamnesia – for the legendary genetics that started it all. 💧 Aptus – for consistent balance and vitality. 🌸 Plagron – for the boosters that bring color and resin to life. ⚙️ TrolMaster & ThinkGrow – for giving precision and control. 🌍 And most of all — to you, the readers, growers, friends, lovers, haters, and believers — thank you. This community keeps the passion alive. ⸻ 🎥 Watch in 4K on YouTube 🌿 The full White Widow 12/12 from Seed Series is live in 4K resolution on YouTube.

Time to take off a few fan leafs. Most plants are 5-7 weeks old. (Start of week 7). 2TD just popping their heads up. 2 - LZ, 2 - CJ and 1 D are 2 weeks old. Hate to spread it all but but just made a big move into a new home... the older plants were stressed to much in the first few weeks and it shows in their size. I have higher hopes for the new plants and they are looking on point for sure. Love organic weed!!!

Nice strain to grow overall especially for the terps it produced, yield was more on the low side as expected from one for these "hype" strains or whatever you want to call them.

First week of florwering is over. They all already show pistills so induction was successful. I did a little defoliation to uncover bud sites and LST-d Strawberry Cough since it was much higher than the rest of the ladies. Now I do have even-ish canopy. CA$H and Mimozz are going superb. Cough is okay, not great, not bad. Grandpa's Cookies is a runt but I'll try to have at least some weed from this one also 💪

Esta semana seleccionamos las plantas más adelantadas de nuestro cultivo, para colocarlas bajo la nueva luminaria Led LazerLite Pro 720 de The Pure Factory, con la potencia ajustada al 50%. Miramos de que las cuatro variedades estén representadas bajo el led y bajo las lamparas HID, de esta forma podremos ver las diferencias entre los dos sistemas. Seguimos con nuestra rutina de fertilización para la fase vegetativa Grow Soldier + Green Mystic by JUJU Royal y CALMAG de BioBizz. Al final de la semana, cambiamos el ciclo lumínico para pasar a 12/12 Floración.

Excellent week of growth, we're in the second week of flower on the two little ones so I have begun the pollination process. The donor plant is almost as tall as me now it's ridiculous how big this plant gets. If I was doing a flower run Id have a staggering amount of cannabis at the end, as it is I have enough pollen to impregnate all of Canada lol, best steer clear of my facility lest you want a baby :)

So first week of flower or pre flower maybe?? But whatever it is they are now outside and getting direct sunlight from about 10am to 4pm and loving it. They started off this week looking a little yellow on the new growth but by Wednesday all the leaves are nice and green. Got the day off tomorrow so think I'll do a light defol and have another look at the lst wires. The mother of this clone is about a week away from harvest (my first ever harvest!!) And she smells great, everytime I walk outside. Looking forward to a comparison, my first soil harvest and my first hempy 1 after another. So I just got 2 feeds in this week, had some rain which kept the coco moist for longer so now we wait. Thanks for stopping in 👍

Plants are separated. Got the Sour Wiz in the closet vegging out for another 20 days. Got the northern lights and Skywalker Og in the tent flowering. Only thing I dislike is the fact that I had to move the one light out of tent to continue veg and now the flowering plants don’t have that extra light boost for another’s 20 days. KEEP in tune !!!
