Welcome back growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre! Week 5F begins, the ladies are looking good, but hungry!! Will continue to monitor through the week, as they are drying out the pro-mix HP medium quickly. Defoliation conducted on each lady. However LSD and Divine storm needed the most attention. Thanks for stopping by growfessors, tune in next week for another episode 👽🌳💚

I rated this with top marks for a reason. Two pheno's were topped and fimmed while I left one to grow naturally to get a sense for the plants structure. I'll try to convert some pictures and upload them. This is the darkest smelliest most potent cannabis ive ever grown. I believe I have a new favorite strain. Having been able to selectively harvest two of the plants worked out amazing. After harvesting the nice milky tops, the smaller buds that I left were able to continue growing up through the horizontal trellis and gave me another FULL harvest! Plus I was able to take the late little buds around the size of a quarter (that were all purple with amber trichs) and I was able to harvest AGAIN for the 3rd time and froze a couple lbs wet to make extracts with. This strain was extremely resilient and I don't think I had one spot of botrytis. After harvesting the last two girls (for the third time lol) I noticed they got some powder mildew. That's okay though it was just stuff I wasn't expecting anyway and it went in the freezer. Strain came out just as advertised. Lime green flowers with bright red stigmas that retracted into the flower as it finished. One pheno turned purple towards the end of the season. Very low leaf to bud ratio with this strain. This was one of the worst seasons for growing cannabis but this strain excelled despite the 50 degree temperature swings, weeks of rain, hurricanes and 50mph winds. Not only that, they aren't kidding when they advertise this strain upward of 30% thc. I'll save the effects for the smoke report but this is certainly the STRONGEST cannabis i have ever grown. I am so proud of myself for growing cannabis of this quality. Quantity got me 18 jars and about a quarter of a tote. I'll save the rest for the smoke review. And I'll finish this later. After having had time to cure this strain only seemed to increase in potency. I saved a few lbs wet to freeze and extract. I kind of messed this run up. It still turned out 🔥. I'm used to working with dry material or trim. I think I pushed to hard when I tried to "wick" water away from the hash on the 25u square, I don't think I waited for it to dry long enough end then I didn't let the resin cool before I tried to separate the turkey bags. I left my anxiety meds at my father's and end up ripping the cellophane in 3 pieces. I ended up driving to get my meds with my hands looking like I stuck them in a peanut butter jar. When I made it back the material had cooled. I managed to scrap a ball off my hands. I was then able to dab up almost 100% of the resin! It came ripping up making a loud nose and I'd think I ripped it again. That being said I did lose a little on my hands and equipment. You live and learn I guess. Dry and wet are totally different. However this hash smells JUST LIKE the jars of cured weed. And like I previously said; "If I could design a strain specifically for me, this would probably be it."

I do less nutrients during this week and treated as if it’s weak one because as you know, I use fox forms ocean forest and it has nutrients in it so I don’t wanna overpower my plants and I just wanna see how they do with a little bit of nutrients before I upped the dosage

1/2/2023: decided to give them both another week. They are both slowing down their water uptake and they are both fading hard, but I'd like to see a little more amber tricomes before chopping. 1/3/2023: gave each plant 1 liter of water, mixed with ThermX-70 and Dr. Zymes Eliminator. 1/5/2023: looks like Dr. Zymes did the trick. There is a noticable reduction in fungas gnats. Just in time to chop the plants down, haha. Gave them both .5 liters, basically to wet the top soil. Plan to chop any day now. Very few green leaves left, so it's time. Tricomes could use a bit longer but don't want to chance bud rot. Should have given one last top dress 3 to 4 weeks ago, but I did not expect then to go this long. Also, 5 gallon pots are not big enough for organics. Moving on up in size next round. Going to try an earthbox in this tent. 1/6/2023: last watering today with a little ThermX-70. Going to harvest in a few more days. Been 101 days since they sprouted and the Orange Bubblegum is up to about 10% amber and the Newberry is probably 15% to 20%, so it is definitely about that time to harvest.

✂️🍯 Tical x Zamnesia — Nectar Drip | Drying & Trimming Report 🍯✂️ And… we are back again 😄 Yes — we are dividing the reports once more. At this point it is probably becoming part of the diary itself, but honestly, there is simply too much happening during these runs to compress everything into one giant update without losing important moments along the way. So thank you for the patience. And welcome back to the next chapter of our Nectar Drip journey: the drying, the trimming, the resin collecting, the temple balls, and the beginning of the cure. 🌱 Quick Recap For anyone arriving only now: This run was grown from seed under 12/12 lighting from the beginning. No long vegetative phase. No giant training sessions. No massive shaping. Just letting the genetics express themselves naturally while observing: - structure, - morphology, - resin production, - flower behavior, - and overall cultivar personality. Last week reflected the harvest itself: - trichome maturity, - fading colors, - hanging branches, - macro photography, - stem structure, - and final harvest observations. One of the smaller plants was frozen immediately after harvest for future washing and extraction work, which we will still cover in a dedicated future update once we complete the washing process properly. But this week? This week belongs to the dry flowers. And honestly… these girls became something beautiful. Drying Process The flowers dried for roughly 10 days under controlled conditions: - approximately 18–20°C - around 60% RH - with the first couple of days closer to 45% RH to help release initial surface moisture safely This part matters far more than many people realize. Drying is not simply: “waiting until the plant becomes dry.” It is controlled moisture migration. The outside of the flower always dries first. The inside stays wetter longer. And the goal is slowing that process down enough for: - chlorophyll breakdown, - smoother smoke, - terpene preservation, - proper moisture redistribution, - and stable curing afterward. Dry too fast? The outside crisps while the inside traps moisture. Dry too slowly? Risk increases: - mold, - anaerobic conditions, - terpene degradation, - unstable cure. These Nectar Drip girls dried beautifully. Dense flowers. Excellent structure. No rushed drying. No hay smell. No collapse. Just slow clean progression. And when the branches finally gave that satisfying “click” instead of bending… we knew it was time 😄 ✂️ Trimming Time So: gloves on, trim bin ready, studio lights running, music playing quietly in the background, Mr. Baggy supervising operations as always 😄 …and branch by branch, the process began. We trimmed entirely by hand using Zamnesia curved-point scissors. And honestly, these scissors became one of our favorite trimming tools. The pointed curved tip allows: - deeper precision, - cleaner access between calyxes, - easier sugar leaf removal, - less accidental flower damage, - and better control overall on dense compact flowers. Especially important on cultivars like this one. Because Nectar Drip became DENSE. Not airy. Not fluffy. Proper compact greasy flowers. The kind that fight back while trimming 😄 Every branch had to be broken down carefully: - separating buds individually, - removing excess leaf material, - preserving flower shape, - protecting trichome coverage, - and trying not to spend half the trimming session glued to the scissors. And yes… the resin production here was honestly ridiculous. 🖤 Resin Everywhere This cultivar is oily. Not just frosty visually. Oily physically. The gloves became coated quickly. The scissors accumulated thick dark resin constantly. The trim bin slowly filled with golden material underneath. And every few minutes we found ourselves scraping resin from: - gloves, - scissors, - fingers, - and tools. That sticky dark material eventually became beautiful little temple balls. And honestly? The way this resin behaved says a lot about the quality of the cultivar. Some resin stays dry and crumbly. This one softened almost instantly with minimal heat. Just body temperature alone was enough to: - soften, - bind, - darken, - and become workable. Extremely greasy resin. Extremely rich trichome expression. The little temple balls became: dark, soft, sticky, shiny, and incredibly aromatic. Beautiful medicine already before even curing properly. 🏆 Final Dry Numbers And now the final flower numbers for the dried plants: 🌱 337.3 grams dry flower Plus: the frozen material resting in the freezer for future washing and extraction work. And honestly? Very happy with these numbers. Especially considering: - the quality, - density, - resin production, - flower structure, - and the overall level of expression these girls delivered. This was not “big yield but average flower.” This was genuinely high-quality medicine. 📦 Storage & Beginning The Cure After trimming: the flowers were placed into glass jars for curing. The temple balls also rest curing slowly inside glass. And now another important phase begins: time. Because curing changes everything. Terpenes settle. Moisture equalizes. Harshness fades. Aromas deepen. Smoke smooths out. The cultivar slowly reveals its final personality. And honestly? This Nectar Drip already smells incredible. Sweet. Creamy. Fruity. Almonds.Dark. Warm. Slightly candy-like. With this deep resinous backend that keeps evolving every day. The room smelled unbelievable during trimming. At some moments it genuinely felt like opening: fruit candy, fuel, cream, and warm resin all at once. Very unique profile. Very memorable. 📸 Documentation & Studio Sessions Of course, we documented almost everything: - trimming time-lapses, - resin collection, - temple ball formation, - close-up flower shots, - drying branches, - sticky gloves, - macro details, - cinematic studio moments, - and behind-the-scenes chaos 😄 Because honestly… these moments matter too. A grow diary becomes more than just showing finished buds after enough weeks. It becomes documentation: - of process, - mistakes, - lessons, - atmosphere, - obsession, - patience, - and passion. And this run definitely carried all of that. ⏳ What Comes Next? Next update will probably become the final chapter: - curing review, - smoke report, - terpene evolution, - effect profile, - overall strain impressions, - and our honest final thoughts about this Tical x Zamnesia collaboration after living with the medicine properly. And honestly… we are extremely excited for that one. Because this cultivar already feels very special. 🙏 Final Thanks And as always… thank you. To Zamnesia. To Tical. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To Lumiflora. To the gear. To the platform. To the supporters. To the silent followers. To the OGs still here since day one. To the curious new visitors. To the people learning quietly in the background. To the skeptics. To the lovers. To the haters too 😄 And to everybody who stopped scrolling long enough to spend even a few moments here with us. That alone deserves gratitude. This collaboration genuinely feels special. And honestly… I still feel like Nectar Drip has one more beautiful chapter left before this journey fully ends. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

At the end of the 12th week I decided to chop. The plant grown a lot filling my entire tent, il she gives to me about 500g (or more) of wet harvest. The smell is very intense and the buds are sticky a lot. I put the branches into the tent with the dehumidifier, fan and extractor 24 hours on. Update: two weeks after the first harvest I've decided that it is time to harvest the second plant that I transferred outdoor when I discovered that she was showing signs of illness. It's buds are not so fat as the ones of the other plant, but they are rich of trichomes. Harvest today, light trimming and put the branches into a box.

10th week, the smaller Strawberry G was already harvested. 5 grams dry weight. Twig snap two days ago I was out smoked it. Head buzz, Strawberry taste was light and delicious. High lasted about 4 hours. I have a habit of harvesting with hardly any amber so the potency is at its peak.

SuperSativaSeedClub PurplePunchOGauto Week9 What up grow fam. Weekly update on these three. Two of the three seem to be growing good as the other has been fighting me since the beginning. I decided this week to transplant from 1gal pots to 3gal to see if maybe it'll fix my leaf burning issue. Over all super excited to see what the next couple weeks will bring. All in all Happy Growing

Flipped 6/2/23. Got to about week four and noticed the smacks X 41gs and the gmo X guava biscotti had Hermed. Decided that my best course of action is to let them go outside.

So we are in the middle of week 10 and I feel pretty comfortable feeding them now, pretty much the same until next week when I give more Top Max. I've seen much more explosive growth on other diaries but I have to say I'm pretty proud so far for my first attempt. Staring at those fresh furry little balls of life is surreal, getting to this point is great, but it's far from over. So I kept the same feeding this week, still adding the Great White with mycorrhizae (and like 40+ other microbes) once a week as it says per directions. The BioBizz products are easy to use and hold up well, so I'm feeling better about going with them even though I had some issues at the beginning (all my fault most likely). I can dial in the feeding mixture PPM now first try to where I want it, so far 700ppm of a gallon every 2 days has been working out. I feel like at the start I was over watering because people say water everyday in coco, well that seems to be for the coco bricks. I am using FoxFarm Bush Doctor Coco Loco (long ass title just for some coco coir) with additional perlite and it has a lot more holding capacity than just normal bricked coco coir. For checking on when it needs water I still use the method of digging into the topsoil an inch and weighing the pots by hand. Also I've noticed if they are pretty tired looking after lights on then I'll water. Like everyone said, consistent fertigation has been the hardest part as a beginner. First week I'm posting a video, the fan can't oscillate so I turn it to the right, left, and keep it center as well as raise and lower it so there is decent airflow. I wouldn't say it's optimal but it works for now. I've raised the lights about 3 inches just so the top colas don't get burnt, I've also found the sweet spot on the potentiometer (power knob) where I can get maximum power without raising the temperature above 77f, which it quickly goes above 80f if I exceed it. I've done minor defoliation before each feeding (so like every 2 or 3 days), mostly just clearing the leaves from above while keeping the important sugar leaves and some fan leaves, even though most the large fan leaves have long died/turned. If you watch the first video I've posted you'll notice an injury on her, unfortunately I didn' I feel like I've failed on the C99 X Blueberry Auto, in fact I took it out of the title. I definitely kept it in nutrient lock even after repeated flushings, it seems to have grown a little and even looks like it's accepted its new life as a stunted sideshow geek never thinking of being the in the spotlight under my grow tent. On the plus side, the two normal Desert Lemon photo's look great, even if one is starting to look leggy. They haven't shown their sexes but it looks like they soon will, because frankly I don't have enough room and would like the leggy one to be gone. The two other shortest plants looks nice and green, shortest being the Black Sugar photo that I did some minor LST with tent stakes - and the very beautiful Gelat.OG photo that is so symmetrical it makes me want to put her in the spotlight (aka position 1 which I give most room/light priority too). Okay so that's it for this week folks, thanks for checking in and please comment or critique on my first grow! Any questions also welcome. -AthanasGrow

Took some time to remove all paperclips from plant and clean up a bit leaving the top fan leaves and removing everything else, from here on out ,im letting the branches where i topped grow upward before switching to 12/12, still dont have confirmation on the sex?
