Our Zamnesia autoflowers have been on their journey through the magical flowering period for a while now, this is the second week of flowering considering that autoflowers still flower spontaneously some sooner than others but all around the 3rd-4th week. . ---- The general environmental conditions are good, the heat has increased a bit more but for the first weeks of flowering it is not a big problem, let's remember to never exceed 27 degrees centigrade in the last 4 weeks to avoid compromising the quality of the flowers. If necessary open the growbox but never let it exceed 27-30 degrees where 30 is already a lot. The positive thing is that as soon as the lights go out the change is already somewhat visible and as autumn progresses we will also improve. The humidity is fluctuating but we try to control it with two dehumidifiers when necessary, pushing both of them possibly not into the growbox but directly into the room. (I dehumidify the room and the air in the growbox should also be dehumidified) --- I'll start by giving you some information about the Sticky Beast, it's a monster, a real beast in fact, right now in an 11-liter pot it's drinking 2 liters of mush a day and I find the soil very dry, if I give 1.5 dehydrated, incredible, I don't dare to think what's about to happen to these buds, very fast to grow and with a full-bodied plant. We've already noticed that it's a beast, now we're waiting for the other typical characteristic of the finale: Sticky. --- Fertilization program - The fertilizers are always Plagron and I'm following the table that I generated on the site depending on the chosen substrate. Create your own card and follow it, never be presumptuous my friend as I have been in the past, follow the card and look at the plants, not all need the same amount of fertilizer. We have reached the moment to give a good dose of iron in the first weeks of flowering, already of race life not sprayed but mixed with fertilizers. We have then added the power buds to stimulate the birth and development of flowers. ---- https://plagron.com/it - Power Roots - 1ml/l - Alga Bloom - 4 ml/l - Pure Zym - 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal - 1ml/l - Vita Race - 5 ml/l - Power Buds 1ml/l is now added i have to tribute more than something to this bad guy! --- The 100% Organic pack by Plagron can be found on Zamnesia at the link: https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11457-pla gron-easy-pack-natural.html --- Now dehumidifier running keeping the range from 45 to 55% / / Strain Description // What happens when three famous strains come together?

The flush week! Seemed ok - def had nitrogen toxicity in one purple berry kush - maybe too much ripener before. But we’re here - will give them the 24 now and chop. We’re out of time on this run. 90^% of the crop are where I want them to be however I thought I would have more droopy leaves. Will do the harvests on Monday anyways. Have a great week. Tried to edit best j could to do them justice. We were taking pics for the v1 so I brought them all out for a dance. Aroma strong 😂. Take care everyone. Just keep going and keep on bloomin

Last week. Big buds, and rockhard. starting to get really sticky in the last 2 weeks, prior that it was not sticky at all like other plants most of the time do. Doesn't smell too strong, smells a bit sweet,sour,candy like.

Blueberry has started early flower, will be top dressing with some gaia green in the next few days. The 1 mystery fastbuds has some huge fan leaves, they might have to go due to them blocking most lower branches. Mystery #2 is finally picking up the pace.

No hay mucho que comentar, sigo añadiendo humedad pulverizando con agua destilada 3 o 4 veces al dia. Y riego en cuanto veo que está "seco" A los 18 dias les hice un foliar con Hemplex , un bioestimulador. Con estas raices ya necesitan un transplante urgentemente, xd.

Week 3 is here and all is going well. The girls look good, but 2 are bushier and bigger than the other two. Still on straight water this week, and slowing adding more time to the water pump and keeping an eye on things. I did my first clipping this week, and since then, they have bunched up in the middle a bit. I am going to do some lst this week, and continue to keep them growing. I am also going to be adding nutes this coming week so hopefully they really start to flourish. On the time lapse, there seems to be less up and down with the leaves and now it seems more consistent. Hopefully this is a good sign on the watering schedule. Well see how it looks next week. Thanks for checking out my grow and see you all next week.

🌱 Animal Mints — Week 5 from Seed (12/12) Special Report: Mixed Timelines – Pre-Flower & Flower Quick recap for new readers This run is a 12/12 from seed project, designed to observe structure, resilience, and expression without extended veg. This week is special because two different timelines are happening in the same room, offering a clear comparison of development paths. ⸻ Plant Timelines Overview 🌿 Plant A — “12/12 from Seed” • Timeline: 12/12 from seed • Stage: Entering pre-flower • Training: Light leaf bending & tucking only • Condition: • Extremely lush, deep healthy green • Calm posture, no stress signals • Very balanced structure when viewed from above This plant is transitioning gently and naturally, exactly what we want to see at this stage. ⸻ 🌸 Plant B — Short Veg → Flower • Timeline: ~15 days under 16h light, then flipped • Stage: Early flower, clearly more advanced • Training: No training at all • Structure: • Classic Christmas / pine tree form • Strong apical dominance • Already showing clear calyx formation and bud building Despite no training, the structure is beautiful and symmetrical. From above, both plants resemble a compact bush — a great illustration of how genetics express across timelines. ⸻ 🌡️ Environmental Conditions (Week 5) This was a tricky environmental week due to cold external conditions: • Outside: ~4°C with ~98% RH • Inside tent: • Temperature: ~21°C • RH: ~58% (stable and acceptable) • CO₂: ~666 ppm • Plant response: Calm, steady, resilient — no signs of stress The plants are handling the cold remarkably well so far. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Strategy • Top lighting: • 100% power • PPFD: 700–850, depending on plant height • Under-canopy lighting: • Being introduced by the end of this week • Starting at 30% power, intentionally low The goal is not intensity yet — just to signal photon availability from below while maintaining strong top-down light. 🙏 Thanks to Lumiflora for the under-canopy lights being tested 🙏 Thanks to Future of Growth for the main fixtures ⸻ 💧 Watering, Nutrition & Philosophy Water source • Rainwater + dehumidifier water mix • This is why Cal-Mag Pro has been added preventively • Not due to deficiency • But to ensure stability during early flower with low-mineral water This is explained intentionally to avoid future issues, not to correct current ones. ⸻ Feeding structure Autopots (6 plants – mineral only) • EC: 2.29 • pH: ~6.0 • Reservoir = mineral only (organic mixes don’t behave well in tanks) Hand-fed plants (including some Autopot plants) • EC: 1.43 • pH: 5.9 • Organic + mineral mix • Autopot plants receive top feeding once per week This approach requires more work — but it allows: • Individual plant observation • Weight checks before watering • Natural dry-backs • A deeper connection with each plant’s drinking behavior Dry-outs are intentional and combined with enzyme applications, helping recycle dead root matter into available nutrients and encouraging active root exploration. ⸻ Genetics & General Impression I’m genuinely impressed by Animal Mints genetics: • Consistent structure across timelines • Strong health signals • Calm, resilient behavior under less-than-ideal external conditions Both plants are showing real promise, each in their own way. 🙏 Thanks to Zamnesia 🙏 Thanks to Plagron And thanks to everyone following along — supporters, skeptics, haters, lovers — everyone has a place here. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week Expect: • Clear flower progression on the vegged plant • Pre-flower stacking on the 12/12 plant • Plants responding to under-canopy photons • Increased differentiation between timelines Don’t expect: • Heavy defoliation • Aggressive feeding changes • Forced development This run is about listening, not pushing. ⸻ Final note This week is officially marked as Week 5 Flower in GrowDiaries, but in reality it’s a blend of pre-flower and flower stages — and that’s exactly why this report matters. 👽 New team member Meet Mr. Baggy Our new fluffy alien/beaver/whatever-he-is friend, won through a Grow Diaries contest. Expect to see him around — he’s officially part of the grow now. Week 5 Veg/pre-flower | 8×8 Tent | Master Conditions 🌍 External Environment (Context) • Outside temperature: ~5 °C • Outside RH: 92–96% (very high humidity) • Strong seasonal pressure influencing internal stability ⸻ 🌡️ Internal Tent Conditions • Tent temperature: ~21.8 °C (noted drop due to cold external temps) • Tent RH: ~58% → Very good considering outside conditions ⸻ 💨 Airflow & Circulation • Primary airflow: Bottom → top → wall return • Pattern: Full-room vortex circulation • Additional fans: Central airflow to break blind spots and mix layers • Goal: No stagnant pockets, uniform VPD across canopy ⸻ 💧 Water Source & Rationale • Water: Dehumidifier water + rainwater • Base EC: force • Systems designed to support plant intelligence, not override it FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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.

Ai Gude Growmies, Alter Tobi (NL auto)🧓🏼🌌: 5.6= 21cm 8.6=29cm +8cm Canna Terra Vega Gorilla Punch Auto 🦍👊🏻🚗: 5.6= 20,5cm 8.6= 25cm +4,5 cm Canna Terra Flores / Canna Boost Mimosa Cake Auto🍹🍰🚗: 5.6= 23cm 8.6= 30cm +7cm Canna Terra Vega Habe mich gegen das Toppen entschieden da es noch mehr Stress bedeuten würde und ich beim ersten mal Autoflower Genetik lieber auf Nummer sicher gehen wollte da. Endlich bin ich auch wieder im Wochen takt das es immer Sonntags die neue Woche hochladen kann. Fangen wir beim Alten Tobi an dem Sorgenkind nachdem Blatt Schaden fing er an sehr gezackte und verformte Blätter zu entwickeln. Natürlich ist der Punkt das die Erde am anfang zu trocken war und ich tauchen musste um die Erde richtig zu wässern. Denke der ganze Stress ist daran schuld und ein Teil die Genetik weil die anderen 2 haben sich wie ich empfinde gut entwickelt. Oder meint ihr die Pilze wo im Topf wachsen haben damit was zu tun was ich mir nicht vorstellen kann oder ? Die GPA wächst sehr gut in die Breite und entwickelt massive stabile Seitentriebe. Sie ist den anderen geschätzte 5-7 Tage voraus. Hatte gehofft das sie mehr in die Höhe schießt da die anderen ihr 5cm voraus sind. Werde wahrscheinlich einfach sie. Höher setzen das sie mit den anderen gleich hoch ist. Sie hat als einzige schon Blüte Dünger und Booster bekommen vor 2 Tagen seitdem explodiert sie förmlich🤯 Zu guter letzt die MCA sie hat die trocken und wässer Phase gut überstanden. Leider hätte ich den Vega Dünger nicht erhöhen müssen da sie jetzt leichte Adlerkrallen hat. Ansonsten habe ich sie nur entlaubt da für LST die Triebe noch wachsen müssen und sie ist nicht so Dicht verzweigt ist denke ich geht es ohne solange an alle Triebe ausreichend Licht fällt. Da ab jetzt bei allen definitiv die Blüte beginnt habe ich vor 2 tagen die ADlite Red-55 (660nm Deep Red 55w) zugeschaltet und die Haupt-Lampe von 60% (400w) auf 80% (520w) geschaltet da es endlich die Temperaturen wieder zu lassen. Die 2 anderen Pflanzen sind Fettkraut Pinguicula spec. "Guatemala" meine natürliche Insekten Falle. Diese Art ist sehr robust und kann auch mit Kalk haltigen Wasser gegossen werden.

Rsv11 has been growing good. She was neem oil treated 4 days ago and again today. I have seen evidence of a pest, but not seen the pest itself. So I am unsure what exactly it is. If the neem oil works, I should be free of the pest after today. She has been growing good. Once I get these pest gone, and she recovers. It will he time for flowering. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Terpyz Mutant Genetics. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

I 100% believe this plant only turned out so great was because I added big bud from advanced nutrients this run. I love the stuff I will probably start tring out there other products when I need to replace nutrients as I run out of what I have What a week. It’s been hotter here than in Miami Florida what’s going on with the world it’s broken. Well it’s ok drying buds when the ac blasting is always perfcet
