A little over a week in the fade. She is just starting to show deficiency signs a little. Will likely be harvesting next week. Got some beautiful frosty buds, that smell amazing. Thanks again fast buds Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, and all of my YouTube channel subscribers. I greatly appreciate the support, and glad to help others when I can. Happy growing 🌱🌱🌱

She’s hanging to dry and then will go into jars for a few weeks to cure. ✅ About 100g in all dry weight. These buds are dense really sticky and stinking the place out. Burping daily still…👌🏼

Veg15, han crecido como 2 centímetros desde el transplante, aún no necesitan riego, desde ahora regaré cada 3~4 días, cuando el sustrato este un 80~90% seco, han estirado un poco desde que subí la distancia del LED y bajé su intensidad, mañana haré Main Lining. Veg16, hoy se torturaron las plantas con Main Lining, se cortó arriba del segundo nodo y se cortaron también las hojas de un dedo bajo el primer nodo, las plantas que tenían suficiente crecimiento de les hizo LST también, cuando se apague la luz se efectuará un spray foliar con B-52, y mañana un nuevo riego. Veg17, riego con 5.5 pH y EC 1.8~1.9, se regaron con 1.5 litros y no se obtuvo drenaje, próximo riego tendrá que ser con más cantidad de agua para obtener drenaje, el agua se calentó a 23 grados y se oxigenó antes de regar, mañana se ajustará el LST ya que siguen creciendo muy bien. Veg18, hoy solo se ajusto el LST, siguen creciendo bien. Veg19, ajuste de LST, nada más que anotar. Veg20, siguen creciendo, talvez hay que ajustar la cantidad de luz DLI. Veg21, tuve que poner una estufa para aumentar la temperatura en el indoor y bajar la intensidad del LED a un 50% para alcanzar un DLI óptimo. Hoy haré ajuste de LST y revisar la humedad del sustrato.

🌱 Cosmic Noodles — Week 2 VEG Two plants, two paths, same environment We’re officially moving into Week 2 of veg, and this is one of those interesting cases where we’re already seeing two very different expressions of the same strain. Both plants share the exact same environment, nutrients, PPFD, and recipe used across all the diaries in this run. The only real difference between them is how they got here. ⸻ 🌱 Plant B — 15 days of veg before 12/12 This one deserves a deeper explanation. Over the last week, Plant B exploded with growth — so much that I decided to start very soft, controlled low-stress training (LST). What I’m doing • Using simple wires • Gently pulling the main stem to the side • Moving leaves, not cutting them • Opening the canopy to expose new growth points No topping. No hard bending. No damage. Just guidance. Why I’m doing this By bending the main stem and repositioning leaves, we: • Reduce apical dominance • Allow light to reach lower nodes • Encourage side branches to activate and stretch • Create a wider, more even structure early Right now, we’re around node 6–8, and the lower branches are already 3–4 cm long — just from leaf positioning and gentle bending alone. That’s a strong response. Important context This is an autoflower, now running 12/12, not a traditional autoflower light schedule. Because of that: • Recovery time is limited • Stress must be minimal • Every action needs to be intentional This is why the training is soft, progressive, and constant, not aggressive. The goal is to bring out her potential, not slow her down. So far, she’s responding beautifully: • Happy leaves • Strong color • No signs of stress • Continuous growth I’m extremely curious to see how this structure develops over the coming weeks. ⸻ 🌱 Plant A — 12/12 from seed The sister tells a completely different story — and exactly the one we expected. Plant A: • Much smaller • On her third pair of true leaves • Tight internodes • Beautiful, healthy color • Growing straight toward the light At this stage, I’m not touching her. No training. No bending. No intervention. For the first weeks, I want her to: • Express her natural structure • Build roots • Show how she handles 12/12 from seed on her own I may train her later — or not at all. For now, observation comes first. ⸻ 🔍 Why they are so different Same genetics. Same feed. Same light. Same environment. The difference is time in veg before flowering pressure. Plant B had time to: • Establish structure • Build momentum • Respond positively to training Plant A is still: • Root-focused • Compact • Prioritizing survival and balance Both paths are valid — and documenting both is exactly why this grow exists. ⸻ 📊 Environment, light & feeding • PPFD, EC/TDS, nutrients: same recipe as all diaries in this run • Consistency is key — changes come from technique, not inputs • Full details remain shared across all reports for transparency Camera note: All photo reports are now done using Sony A6700 with dedicated lenses. More on that later as the series evolves. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect • Plant B: • More side branch development • Wider structure • Earlier canopy formation • Plant A: • Slow, steady vertical growth • Compact form • Natural expression without interference ⸻ 🚫 What NOT to expect • Explosive vertical stretch (yet) • Autoflower “forgiving” recovery from heavy stress • One-size-fits-all results This is an experiment — observed, not forced. ⸻ 🙏 Final thoughts & thanks Huge thank you to: • The community following and sharing knowledge • The breeders for the genetics • Everyone supporting this project quietly or loudly This grow is about process, observation, and repeatability — not chasing results. More soon.

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.

It took two ... 2 full hours to repot all 7 plants. I used an entire bag of Fox Farm Ocean Forest.... also sprinkled Mycorrhizal on each root system. The GG4 is really oing pretty good... I believe the tight node spacing means good things are in store. Super cropping continues. I gotta flip the whole lot of 7 plants...who cares .. first grow mistakes... fun!

Week 8 and week 3 of flower! The terpenes are making my mouth water and the ladies are fluffier than ever and stacking up nicely. Due to weather changes recently I was able to keep lower over all temperatures and the humidity has increased slightly but it’s right where I want it (50% RH). Purple Lemonade is fading nicely and her colours are becoming more and more vibrant - she has about 2 weeks left. Terps are insane! All the other strains are happy as can be and also showing slight fade on leaves here and there. Very impressed with my Divine Seeds pheno’s and definitely recommend giving their strains a try very strong and easy to grow. Ethos Zweets literally smelling like candy canes. Dutch Passion Colorado cookies definitely giving off hues of a bakery. Overall it was a smooth week and I can’t wait for the smooth smoke! Organics is the easiest way to grow with minimal effort and great results. Shoutout to Green House Feeding Bio Line 😎

Dealing with very strong winds this week. Also morning temperatures are below 15°C causing quite a bit of morning dew. Clear tarps are a big help as long as the strong wind doesn’t blow it away ha ha

buds are getting fat and smell is more intense now. the watering level is low and the leaves are yellowing so i won't refill it because the plant is near to harvest. I recorded a microscope video to see trychomes (sorry for my bad pulse) but enought to see that buds aren't ready to harvest, maybe the next week.

she is doing really well. we are at the beginning of week 5. she is currently getting a lot of rain. but also enough sun and daylight. you can clearly see that she is preparing for the flowering phase. i have not used any growing techniques on her. just sunlight and fertiliser.
