Doddering along merrily, nice colour to her . Pot is proper funky lol , kind of a test to see if it's better than standard pots and fabric ones . Happy growing n peace to all you fine horticulterists 🕊️🕊️🕊️

All going fine this week they had a feed and done some light LST and leaf tucking, buds coming on lovely 💪

Last few days now just letting them mature a bit. Trics are there so nearly do e

Not long left now. She still has white pistils.

Closing thoughts. Damn easy plant to grow responds well to training have fairly uniformed plants only on kept the purple trait but that's ok we can selection breed for that. I am happy I decided to go this route with the breeding the girl scout diesel really complemented the mother plant

She really growing excellent.. Buds forming nicely slight smell . pretty soon some frost should show up 😃..thanks todd for giving a seed so i can try the genetics👍🏆.. Thank you to all my GrowMies where would be without each other.. Thank you

. FIRST DAYS ------------- The girls tolerated the topping well; in three days, I found small bushy bushes in my tent. So, a little mainlining to give them the desired shape, and a little splash of water with just Voodoo. Tomorrow they will receive their 4ml Grow A+B, with 2ml B-52 this time. PS: as you can see in the photo, a little mistake due to over-enthusiasm... I damaged one, but the branch didn't break completely; a little bandage, we'll see if it recovers, if not it will do without that branch. I've seen worse in a previous session, and it was my 3-branch plant that gave me the best harvest! 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QTXbEUN8pA MIDWEEK ----------- Two days after mainlining, it's time for the first defoliation. I cut the “horizontal” sites, as I don't want branches growing in the center of the structure. I'll leave them to rest now; I'll do some lollipopping when they've climbed. + I'll switch Voodoo to B-52. PS: - The damaged branch is not dead, but does not seem to be recovering; I will give it a few more days before deciding to cut it - On the other hand, I had an unpleasant surprise: one of my other girls showed signs of wilting and browning on three of the four branches. I've never had that before... As with gangrene, I cut the three, hoping that the fourth will hold up. For her, I kept the middle sites + mainlining; if it works, I'll still have three branches. see 2 last pics 👆

I think about the fact that it is no longer necessary to cut leaves. I cut it a lot, but I notice that many people cut a bunch of leaves at one time, although somewhere I read no more than 10% at a time. When I gave fertilizers, I always diluted them with water even more to reduce ppm Day 68: I added cal-mag to the diet because the leaves are really turning yellow from the bottom. 0.5 ml Day 70: I added 1 ml cal-mag

Continua la crescita molto lenta spero esploderà presto

Flushing begins, tap water pH 6.1. not shown, but with my 30x microscope, tricomes are 60/40 clear/cloudy.

Did a final defoliation on today day 21, not quite as full canopy compared to normal but wanted this chamber freed up for some new genetics so the plants had only a weeks veg.

So officially 11 weeks and 5 days into the grow so a little early to post week 12 but have got a busy week next week. Still having to cut off the odd bud here and there that gets too close to the lights. Unfortunate but hopefully the fact it’s so tall means I’ll still get a fair bit from the buds around the sides and just under the canopy. TDS @ 0.5 is riding around 950 - 1050 Usually alternating days between adding fertiliser and nutrients. She’s drinking about 12 litres or 4.5 gallons every two full days. Once she’s harvested and weighed in, I’m going to post a long list of points and tips I have learned along the way for any other noobs out there. Already bought another tent for the next grow which is 240cm tall x 110cm x 180cm vs the 180cm tall x 60cm x 120cm one I’m using at the moment. Hopefully that means no more burnt buds! Hope the video and pics are interesting!

Pour moi c'est du jamais vu. 😮 Effeuillé elle fait 530g. Et oui la vérité sort toute nue de ma tente.🤣 Ci elle tient ces promesses en gout et puissance.. Mmmm.. c'est de l'or en branche. 👍

This week added big bud & bud candy, LST & defoliation

Sour Diesel — The Little Survivor Harvest & Trimming Report — Part 1 Before starting this report properly, we once again want to apologize for dividing the harvest documentation into multiple parts. Even when plants are smaller than the giants we have shown recently, we still believe every genetic deserves proper documentation, proper explanation, and enough time to tell the full story from seed to final medicine. That means: - harvest, - drying, - trimming, - curing, - smoke review, - terpene analysis, - and final reflections all deserve their own moments. And honestly? That is exactly what GrowDiaries is about for us. Not just showing finished buds. But documenting the entire journey honestly. The beautiful parts. And also the difficult ones. --- This week, we are talking about the smallest and most unhappy girl from the room: Our Sour Diesel. And honestly… in a room full of different genetics sharing the same environment, same feeding schedule, same lighting, same humidity and same rhythm, it is impossible to make every single plant perfectly happy all the time. Some genetics thrive. Some tolerate. Some struggle. And this Sour Diesel definitely struggled more than the others during this run. Compared to the monsters surrounding her inside the 8x8 room, she stayed smaller, more sensitive, and clearly less comfortable with the overall conditions. But here is the important part: She never gave up. And neither did we. Sometimes the easiest thing to do is remove the weak plant and move on. But when we have: - the space, - the patience, - the time, - and the love for growing, sometimes it is worth allowing plants the opportunity to recover and finish their journey. And honestly? We are very happy we did. Because despite all the struggles, this little Sour Diesel still delivered beautiful medicine. --- By Week 15 from seed, she was finally ready. Not the biggest plant. Not the frostiest in the room. Not the highest yielder. But still beautiful in her own way. Dense little flowers. Strong aromas already developing. Beautiful trichomes. Classic Sour Diesel energy hidden underneath the stress she experienced. And because the entire room was coming down together, her time also arrived. Could she maybe have stayed another week? Possibly. But in a mixed-room environment, timing becomes a collective decision. And honestly, we were happy with where her trichomes stood: mostly cloudy, a few amber, still some clear heads, but overall exactly inside the window we personally enjoy harvesting our medicine. --- After harvest, we broke the plant down branch by branch and placed everything carefully onto drying racks. Drying conditions stayed similar to the rest of the room: around 20°C and 60% humidity. Slow. Controlled. Patient. Exactly how we like it. After roughly 7–10 days, once those little branch snaps finally gave us that beautiful “click” every grower loves hearing, trimming time arrived. And honestly? For a smaller plant, this became a very peaceful trimming session. Trim bin on stage. Gloves on. Zamnesia curved scissors ready. Mr. Baggy supervising operations as always. And one by one, we cleaned her carefully. Those curved scissors truly make a difference for us because they allow easy access deep into compact flowers while preserving structure and avoiding unnecessary damage to the buds. Small details matter during trimming. Especially with resinous flowers. --- And despite being a smaller harvest… this girl was still sticky. Very sticky. The gloves quickly started collecting resin, giving us beautiful finger hash that we rolled gently into small charas-style balls to enjoy later. And honestly? One of the most beautiful parts of hand trimming is exactly this connection. Feeling the resin. Feeling the texture. Understanding the plant directly through touch. No machine replaces that. The trim bin also collected a nice amount of resin-rich material through the screen, which we later gathered into another small hash ball. Not massive amounts. But beautiful medicine nonetheless. And honestly? That always makes us happy. --- Final dry result: 54.2 grams. And while some growers may look only at numbers, we honestly prefer looking at stories. Because this plant easily could have been discarded much earlier in the run. Instead, she recovered, finished, dried properly, trimmed beautifully, and now rests curing safely inside one of the Zamnesia vacuum metal containers. For smaller personal jars like this, we absolutely love these containers because: - they preserve aromas very well, - reduce unnecessary air exchange, - protect terpenes, - and keep special flowers separated for long-term enjoyment. This became one of those “open only sometimes” jars. The kind of medicine you revisit quietly from time to time. --- We also decided to press part of this Sour Diesel to explore her resin potential. But… we will save that entire conversation for Part 2. Because that story deserves its own moment. And honestly? There are lessons there worth sharing. --- For now, we simply close this chapter feeling grateful. Grateful that we kept her alive. Grateful that patience won. Grateful that even the “unhappy plant” still found a way to become beautiful medicine. Sometimes plants teach us more during struggle than during perfection. And this Sour Diesel definitely reminded us of that. --- Huge thanks once again to: Zamnesia for the genetics, Plagron for the nutrients, Future of Grow LEDs for the lighting, GrowDiaries for the platform, and every single person following these journeys. The OGs. The silent followers. The new growers. The skeptics. The lovers. The haters. The accidental visitors. If you are here reading this… you are part of the story too. And honestly? We appreciate all of you. Part 2 coming soon: Smoke review, curing evolution, terpene profile, rosin discussion, and final thoughts about this little survivor. The journey continues. 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 💚 Quick little side note before closing this update: Apologies if some of the photo sequences appear slightly out of order or jump a bit between stages. With hundreds of files, multiple cameras, daytime/nighttime shots, trimming sessions, macros, and documentation spread across different moments, sometimes the gallery decides to dance left, right, up and down on its own 😄 But honestly… maybe that chaos is also part of the real grow room energy. Nothing here is over-polished or artificially perfect. Just real plants, real moments, real documentation and real passion for the craft. Thank you all for following along through every step of the journey 🌱
