12/12 from seed. Week 12 overall. Week 8 of flower. And Cosmic Noodles is doing exactly what a finisher should do. No drama. No panic. No chasing numbers. Just a massive plant, a controlled fade, and a very clear push into the final stretch. She is not limping to the finish. She is arriving with weight. ⸻ 🍜 The Final Reduction This week, everything comes out except Pure Zym. No bloom feed. No boosters. No extras. No correction bottles. No late flower chasing. Just enzymes. And time. At this point, the goal is no longer to build. The goal is to finish clean. She has already done the hard part. The bulk is there. The frost is there. The density is there. Now the plant is simply being allowed to use what she has already stored. That’s the shift this week. Less input. More observation. Less pushing. More finishing. And for a plant this far along, that is often the better move. ⸻ 🌱 Why Keep Pure Zym In Because even when feed stops, the root zone is still working. Pure Zym stays because the medium is still alive. Microbial activity does not stop just because bottles do. At this stage, enzymes still help break down residual organic matter in the root zone, keep the medium cleaner, and support a softer transition as the plant begins consuming what remains available. That matters even more when the soil is not treated like disposable media. Because it isn’t. This soil still has a second job after this run. It goes outside. It gets reused. It feeds vegetables. It stays alive. And whether it is hard science, soft biology, or just grower instinct — keeping that soil active until the end has always made sense here. Not everything needs to be sterile to be effective. Sometimes the better approach is simply not killing what is still working. ⸻ ? Living Soil, Second Life That has always been part of the rhythm. What finishes the room does not leave the cycle. It just changes jobs. Once this run is done, that soil goes back outside and keeps working somewhere else. Different crop. Same biology. Same purpose. So yes — keeping the medium active late matters. Not just for this harvest. For what comes after it too. Call it practical. Call it circular. Call it habit. Either way, dead soil has never been the goal. ⸻ 📉 EC Down, pH Up, Eyes On the Plant This is where the spreadsheet starts losing authority. EC is down. Input is nearly gone. pH has drifted upward into that 6.8–7 range. And right now, it is not being forced back down. Not because numbers do not matter. Because context matters more. At this stage, the plant is finishing. Uptake is slowing. Demand is lower. Feed has been reduced. The root zone is doing less work than it was two weeks ago. So yes — on paper, some of these numbers would make people uncomfortable. In practice? The plant looks exactly like a plant that is finishing correctly. Still drinking. Still praying. Still stacking. Still fading evenly. Still moving from top to bottom without confusion. That matters more than chasing a perfect chart in the final stretch. Room VPD is a reference. Leaf response is the truth. And this room continues to be read by plant behavior first, numbers second. As always. ⸻ 🌡️ Conditions Stay Stable Nothing changed in the room because nothing needed to. Conditions remain steady. No dramatic swings. No forced stress. No late-stage environmental tricks. The room is stable. The plant is stable. The finish is stable. And late flower stability is one of the most underrated parts of a clean finish. No heroic adjustments. No panic corrections. No reinvention in the last chapter. Just consistency. ⸻ ️ A Proper Finisher And this one is a beast. Not “good structure.” Not “nice tops.” A beast. Huge central cola. Heavy side stacking. Dense flower formation. Thick terminals. Real weight from top to bottom. This is one of those plants that stops being judged branch by branch and starts being judged as mass. Because the whole frame is carrying. She is not finishing in isolated tops. She is finishing as a full plant. That matters. The top is heavy. The mid is real. The lowers are still worthwhile. And the entire plant is moving together. That is what a complete finisher looks like. ⸻ ❄️ Frost, Density & Finish Quality And she is not just big. She is finishing properly. Dense flower. Heavy resin. Excellent frost coverage. Strong calyx development. Good terminal formation. Real weight in the hands. The important part now is that she is not only stacking size — she is finishing with quality. That is the difference between a plant that looks impressive and a plant that actually delivers. This one does both. And whether part of her gets dried or part of her gets frozen, she has already made the case for both. That decision can wait. Right now, the only job is to let her finish. ⸻ 🍂 The Fade Is Real — And It’s Everywhere The fade is already underway. And more importantly, it is happening correctly. Not isolated. Not patchy. Not confused. She is fading from top to bottom. Across the plant. Across the canopy. Across the frame. That matters. A uniform fade tells a very different story than a stressed collapse. This is not random yellowing. This is not deficiency panic. This is senescence. The plant is reallocating. The cycle is closing. The finish has started. And she is doing it evenly. That is exactly what you want to see here. ⸻ 💡 Canopy Light Matters And once again, the lesson stays the same: Canopy lighting matters. When the full frame is finishing together, it shows. When lowers stay relevant, it shows. When the plant matures with less separation between top and bottom expression, it shows. Uniform development is not an accident. Top-to-bottom consistency like this is one of the clearest arguments for proper canopy penetration when the setup allows for it. Not mandatory in every room. But when possible, absolutely worth it. This plant makes that case on her own. ⸻ 📘 Week 12, Cosmic Noodles This is what the late game should feel like. Calm. Heavy. Controlled. Predictable. Close. No overreaction. No bottle panic. No forced finish. Just a large, healthy plant using the last of what she has and moving toward the end exactly like she should. And that is all this week needed to be. ⸻ ⏭️ What Comes Next Next week should bring more fade. More color loss. Less drinking. More swelling where it still matters. And a clearer final read on timing. She may finish next week. She may ask for a little longer. Both are still on the table. What should not happen is panic. No sudden overfeeding. No late corrections. No chasing green back into a plant that is already doing what finishing plants are supposed to do. From here, the job is simple: Watch the leaves. Watch the resin. Watch the pace. Then cut when the plant says so. ⸻ 🤝 Thank You To the long-time followers. To the new ones. To the quiet readers. To the loud ones. To the skeptics. To the supporters. To the critics.

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.

Loved growing this. Sang its praises rhe whole way through because it just looked like a beast. I like the pretty Cali strains but I always find the yields are close to frustrating for abilities not up up there. Overall the strain helped me take chances that paid off so I really enjoyed it. Will grow again. Threnneighbors should smell this on the balcony this summer 😂💚🙏🏼

Vamos familia, actualizamos la sexta semana de crecimiento de estas Papayton de FastBuds. La temperatura que estuvo entre los 24-26 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos. Todavía estamos en el ciclo 16 horas luz, 8 oscuridad, estiraron bien y ensancharon bastante también, el color es verde sano. Se nota que los nutrientes de la marca Agrobeta hacen sus funciones. También realicé una poda de bajos que yo si las veo necesarias para explotar después la flor. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida ,descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Were officially at the Flowering Stage! I waited to name the week “Flowering” until all the plants are in flower. The late training didn’t turn out too bad and I did the best I could to get as many bud sites as I possibly could and it seems to look like it turned out good but not great. One of the two runts is not in flower yet and is growing faster and bigger by the day, the other one - let’s not even go there but for interest sake I’m going to keep watering it and see what happens. Perhaps one bud os better than none? Installed my my brand new AC infinity T6 Inline fan and for the first time since starting this grow I think I have adequate air circulation and much better environmental control. I also top dressed with Bio Grow and Bio Bloom (Green House Feeding) and a Tbsp of Mycorrhiza per plant.

Another Week! a little more progress. The flowers are still beginning to turn color. Some have already turned orange in places and some are still white. It's easier to see up close but I can't really get to the top of the plant, because of it's location, so I stick the phone inside to take pics and video. Man, it's hard to tell but... 2 weeks? I started to lower the nutes and will continue for the next week, and then will flush for a week. I got a loupe to check the trics but like i said, they're hard to get to. only time will tell,,,tic,,tock,,,tic,,tock

Hallo Growmies, Die Krümmel auf der Pflanze sind sägemehl wo Raubmilben verteilt haben. Die rosa pistillen ziehen einen magisch in ihrem Bann, abends wird es 18-17C° kalt was eigentlich reichen müsste um zu purpeln. Die Harz Produktion hat auch sichtbar zugelegt genau wie der Zitronen und würzig Cookies Geruch. Bis her eine der schönsten Pflanzen vom Wachstum und aussehen her

Today officially starts week 4 of flower.. - The best part of my day is waking at 530am to open my tent and get a big whiff of that beautiful aroma. MMMM. Gave the girls a good watering this morning and picked out some dying vegetation from under the canopy to keep things clean. Humidity is still a bit low, but with all the vegetation in there I don't mind. I'd literally cry if I got bud rot or some crap like that. - I noticed that the critical kush stems seem kind of of flimsy compared to the other strains. No doubt it smells amazing, but as she puts on more weight it's likely to become a problem. Maybe I should consider silica on the next run.?! Of the 3 kiwi skunk phenos, only one seems to be producing any significant tricombs or smell. The other two look as though they will be good yielders, however, I seriously doubt any real potency. - Of the 9 plants I currently have growing, I would expect I'll probably only keep 3, maybe 4. There's no point wasting time on mediocre bud. - I think the pheno hunt is the best part of the growing process. Every seed is like having a new child. Sometimes, they grow up to be such beautiful creatures. Other times, you can tell their clock ain't ticking right. You can end up with fat high powered coals or those small, no good popcorn buds. And, at the end of the day, unlike kids and wives, you can throw them away and not feel sorry for ordering new replacements online when you get tired of their BS. - - - I love that my tent is right next to my desk. It's the best view anyone could ever ask for! 😍 - Went through today and pulled out a small bit of water leaves to increase airflow from the bottom up to the top, as well as to allow the light to reach deeper in to the canopy. I don't get too crazy with the plucking. Only if its covering another cola or overlapping causing moisture to build up on the leaves. It works well, in my case, to keep the humidity down and limits places for any potential pests to hide while flowering. I usually pull out a handful every other day or so. - - Switched my center light (600w) down to 50% (flower spectrum only) on the 28th. With all of my lights on full spectrum, there's more than enough light for the plants (~1200w eq). I noticed new pistils emerging that shouldn't be and I fear it's causing light stress and/or foxtailing to the critical kush, which is directly in the center of the tent. Since it happened on my last grow with the blue dream and it's not inherently genetic, I'll err on the side of caution this time around.

En la semana doce, 10 junio de 2025. Seguimos con el mismo proceso. PH 6,5

So the video shows lights going out at the end of week 2 in the bloom phase. The phantom are developing a little faster than the Sherbert. And likewise those below led are developing faster than those below HPS. Everything looking healthy and growing to plan, well even quicker than that, hopefully week three will bring the spreading of buds and sites and the onset of trichome covering😍😍😍 Update-

Went on holiday for 3 weeks, had no one water her, had 4 x 3L bottle of nutes upside down withe hole drip feeding, she has done well to survive the hot summer, needs a tidy up and caging before she pre flowers . 14hr 59 minutes day light hours here.

Harvest day 76. Dry in 50-60% humidity, totally night and ventilation maxed 🔥🍊💨 I'm filled with pain as happy for the end of our adventure together. Dry Day 1-2: humidity level 55-60 Dry Day 3-4 : 52-58 Dry Day 5-6-7 : 50-55 Manicure day 3 and 6 of dry ✂️ Use Ice-O-Lator to make Orange Sherbet bubble hash My density note : 8/10 Speed : Really fast, some LST, defoliation, toping. She really looks good ever time!

Hi 👋 Blüte Tag 76 Die letzten Bilder vor der Ernte. Lady Broccoli hat noch etwas zugelegt und schaut richtig gut aus. Der Geruch ist sehr angenehm. Erinnert stark an Limoncello. Super lecker. Gruß M.

Lovely permanent marker banana cream

Abgesehen vom regelmäßigen Gießen und dem gezielten Entfernen einzelner Blätter lasse ich die Pflanzen aktuell in Ruhe wachsen und sich natürlich entwickeln. Der Fokus liegt auf gesundem Wachstum und einer stabilen Entwicklung. Bei jedem zweiten Gießvorgang erhalten die Pflanzen Honigwasser, die übrigen Gießgänge erfolgen ausschließlich mit klarem Wasser.

Another week's in the books, and I'm slacking off on keeping track of this grow yet again. Carl 1 is developing some cal issues, which'll likely be resolved at the next watering. Timelapse is up and yada yada. Again, I'm really just waiting for the weather to turn. The tent getting this crowded isn't something I like, the leaves pressing up against the walls etc. Once the weather is nice enough for bigboi UKBS 2 and Carl 2 to go out, I'll be flipping the tent to flower provided that the other two plants are in good health and have preflowered female. Updates come as things happen. -4/9/2021 - accidentally busted a branch on UKBS 2, taped it up ASAP. Should be fine. -4/11/2021 - UKBS 2 is growing away from the light a wee bit, hopefully it'll perk back up in the near future. Ideally before the tent is overgrown and I'm forced to start hardening them early. -4/13/2021 - UKBS 2 is still being a little pissy, but Carl 2 has recovered from its issue and exploded with growth. Continuing to run out of space.

Die GMOs sind nun soweit erntereif. Die Ayuhasca Purple hingegen benötigt eine etwas längere Blütezeit. Daher bleibt sie noch eine Woche stehen.

So we are in the last half of flowering and so far so good. EC 1900 and PH 5.7 in tank and until the finish of this week raising EC to 2.0-2.1.

Strange week for the plants as I switch in Hygrozyme Enzyme to help with the roots. A lot of dead tissue being consumed by beneficial microbes and fungi. PH rise more than 10 fold every 24 hours while EC levels rise by a point or two. The old roots are dying and being consumed new while bright, crisp, white roots are appearing. New growth is vigorous and the plants seem to enjoy the transition as hard as it is.
