OMG, so much has happened since my last post, this is way overdue. My soil went totally hydrophobic, my PH pen was outta calibration so my soil ph was way of, combined with another gnat infestation. Things are much better know. the gnats are gone, transplanted into larger pots with newly bought soil, changed lighting to 18/6, vegged for a couple more weeks . One plant showed full male pollen sacs and one had suspicious looking male pre-flowers so I culled both. The last 2 showed what I think look like female pre-flowers. I just flipped lights to 12/12 on 4/4 so hopefully I have 2 females, started weaving thru scrog net, canopy looks fairly even, plants due look super healthy aside from couple tips have a bit of yellow But thats from early veg when I had the lights a tad too close. Wish me luck ;).

July 7th makes week 11 for these ladies. They were supposed to have been harvested this week but we're a ways away from that. We have a bit of maturation and swelling to do yet. Maybe I stalled them, could be genetics, could be a combination of both? We'll see. I'm just happy they look as good as they do and to have had the helpful growmies I've had here giving me tips and help along the way. Thank you!

Getting really bushy about 18 inches tall going in this week might be the last week of veg if they keep growing how they are. These girls are getting wide as hell. Will move one of them over to avoid over crowding in the middle next change out of nutrients. They're appetite is getting big

Day 28: I got home from 10 days of holidays and these girls had cruised along as if I had been there with them the whole time. They are very happy, especially the middle one. The small one on the right has always been small, is what it is. She could be a stack little shorty. Time will tell. I did a feed today, top dressed according to Gaia Green at 15 ml/ gal of media which should last approx 2 weeks. I also added a bit more 444 just to make sure there’s enough N during this stretch phase. All 3 have pistols showing and are starting to flower. I was unable to train as much as I’d have liked but is what it is. Sometimes the more indica strains I’ve done are negatively effected by topping and excess training. I removed a couple huge fans that were shading too much of the plant. I also am trying a “super cropping” of top fans to get them out of the way but still save them as a nute source if they need. We’ll see how it goes. The Vipar spectra xs2000 is killling it as usual. As I’ve said 50 times it’s super powerful and I’ve had to raise the light above recommended height as I started to see leaf edge curl and light stress. No problem at all tho, better too powerful and raise it than too weak and have loose buds. I did a micro top just to stop excessive apical meristem stretch and leaving all the other lower branches too low for effective light absorption or burn on the top cola. Happy Growing 🌱

Had to strip her to get to know where she was growing. Cut some branches that were overlapping and also tried to shape her a bit. Still i think there are many branches growing so i have to wait for it to grow; now it is 3 months with: - Veg lights - grow nutrients The pot i think it is 1 litter; but will feed her with 1 litter every week. All Veg phase will last 4 months - 16 weeks Will feed with water only for 1 week in: - week 5 - week 10 - week 16 Then on week 17 you will start grow phase. Grow phase will last 8 months - 32 weeks. I will water water only in weeks: - week 21 - week 26 - Flush - week 28 - Week 33 - Flush If she grows too much: re-pot on week 17

Blue Zushi entra en su recta final con una presencia imponente. Cada rincón del cuarto de cultivo refleja el esfuerzo de estas semanas, y las plantas están en su punto más vistoso hasta ahora. Los cogollos han alcanzado un nivel de compactación sobresaliente. Se sienten duros al tacto, pesados y llenos de resina. La capa de tricomas es densa y opaca, como una escarcha blanca que lo cubre todo. El característico tono azul se ha intensificado al máximo, sobre todo en las hojas cercanas a las puntas, creando un contraste visual que parece sacado de una postal. La nutrición sigue igual: XpertNutrients como base y Sticky Fingers como potenciador de resina, que no ha dejado de sorprender. En esta fase, la acumulación de terpenos se hace evidente: los aromas son más penetrantes, complejos y embriagadores. El perfil se define con notas cítricas más dulces, casi caramelizadas, sobre un fondo kush cremoso y ligeramente especiado. La iluminación con Adlite sigue marcando la diferencia. La densidad de cogollos incluso en zonas menos expuestas lo confirma. La distribución de la luz ha permitido un desarrollo muy equilibrado de toda la planta. Las condiciones ambientales se han mantenido estables, lo que ha permitido evitar cualquier estrés: temperaturas entre 22 y 24 °C y una humedad que ya se empieza a bajar ligeramente, en torno al 45-50%, para prepararnos de cara al final. El ambiente está cargado de aroma, intenso y agradable, pero también indica que se acerca el momento decisivo. La mayoría de los tricomas están ya lechosos y muchos comienzan a teñirse de ámbar. La planta pide calma, pero ya deja entrever que la cosecha está muy cerca. Una joya que está casi lista para brillar al máximo. ¡Últimos pasos antes del gran final! ✨ Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North Part 3 — Smoke Review & Final Thoughts And here we are. The final chapter of this frozen journey. Before we begin, we once again want to thank everyone that followed this run from seed to harvest. We know these reports became long, divided into multiple parts across several weeks, but honestly, this is the only way we know how to properly document a cultivation journey while keeping things educational, transparent, emotional, and real. Because growing does not end at harvest. Drying matters. Trimming matters. Curing matters. Storage matters. And finally… the smoke itself matters. So before talking about the final medicine, let’s make a quick resume of how we got here. ⸻ This entire run was grown 12/12 directly from seed. Minimal intervention. Minimal stress. Almost no training at all besides occasional leaf bending and small adjustments to help light penetration naturally. The plants grew directly into the PPFD we provided, shaping themselves beautifully under the environment instead of being forced aggressively into unnatural structures. And honestly… this style of cultivation continues to impress us more and more every single run. Compact plants. Dense flowers. Massive trichome production. Efficient morphology. Beautiful natural structure. We combined both organic and mineral approaches using Plagron nutrients throughout the cycle, allowing the plants to feed aggressively while still maintaining beautiful terpene development and overall flower quality. The girls finished strong. We harvested during lights-off. We dried them whole-plant style for 10 full days at around 18–20°C and roughly 60% humidity. Then came trimming. Then curing. Then preservation. And now… Around two months later… We finally sit down in the frozen north to truly experience what these girls became. ⸻ And honestly? This medicine is beautiful. Animal Mints might carry “Mint” in the name, but in this particular run, none of the phenotypes expressed any noticeable mint profile at all. And that is completely okay. Because what these girls delivered instead was absolutely outstanding. The dominant profile is unmistakably: Pine. Diesel. Strong earthy-herbal tones. But there is also something else happening underneath it all. A strange sweetness. Not candy sweet. Not fruity sweet. Not sugary sweet. It is almost impossible to explain properly. It sits underneath the pine and diesel like a soft background note that lingers quietly behind the heavier aromas. The more time passes during curing, the more this strange sweetness starts appearing between the earthy layers. And honestly, this is exactly why we love curing so much. The plant evolves. ⸻ On inhale, the smoke immediately hits with a strong pine-diesel combination. Dense. Heavy. Rich. The earthy-herbal profile follows immediately afterward, coating the entire mouth and throat with thick lingering flavor that stays there for a very long time after exhaling. And then comes that strange sweetness again. Not fully identifiable. But present. Like the memory of sweetness rather than sweetness itself. The smoke itself is incredibly smooth despite being extremely dense. Heavy clouds. Rich texture. Oily feeling smoke. You can feel the resin content immediately. ⸻ Now let’s talk effects. Because this is where these girls truly define themselves. This is not daytime productivity medicine. Not at all. Could you enjoy it during the afternoon by a lake, pool, beach, or somewhere peaceful? Absolutely. But if you have responsibilities, work, errands, or tasks that require active focus and productivity… This is probably not the medicine you reach for. Because Animal Mints pulls you deeply into relaxation. Body and mind equally. This is not purely physical sedation. And it is not purely cerebral either. It hits both directions simultaneously. Heavy relaxation. Mental slowdown. Comfort. Warmth. Stillness. The type of medicine that makes you melt slowly into your chair while conversations become softer and time starts moving differently. Perfect for: * late afternoons * evenings * nighttime sessions * movies * deep conversations * music * relaxing environments * disconnecting from stress This is beautiful end-of-the-day medicine. And honestly… it performs that role exceptionally well. ⸻ Of course, the classic dry mouth is absolutely present. But honestly, that comes naturally with many powerful resin-heavy cultivars. Hydration becomes part of the ritual itself. And for people uncomfortable with those stronger medicinal effects, this simply may not be the right type of medicine for them. But for anxiety, stress, depression, mental exhaustion, and emotional decompression… These girls genuinely shine. ⸻ Now let’s talk final numbers. Plant A gave us: 127g Plant B gave us: 247.8g Plant C gave us: 287.9g For a final total of: 662.7 grams 127 + 247.8 + 287.9 = 662.7 And honestly… this is an outstanding result for dense, heavily resinous 12/12-from-seed plants grown with this style. Especially because the quality remained consistent across all three plants. Some flowers became slightly denser than others after drying. Some phenotypes stacked a little differently structurally. But terpene-wise? Practically identical. We stored them separately. We cured them separately. We tested them separately. And honestly, in a blind test, we genuinely do not think we could confidently tell Plant A from Plant B or Plant C. That level of terpene consistency between phenotypes is incredibly impressive. ⸻ We also want to mention how beautiful this entire project felt visually and emotionally. From the frozen harvest aesthetics… to the hanging plants… to the trimming sessions with Mr. Baggy beside us… to the cinematic frozen north imagery… everything about this run felt like a complete universe of its own. Even sitting later in the frozen north enjoying this medicine while looking over the endless ice and mountains… That image perfectly captured the feeling of this journey. Cold world. Warm medicine. Legends of the Frozen North. ⸻ Massive thanks to Zamnesia for the genetics. Massive thanks to Plagron for the nutrients and support throughout the run. Because genetics create potential, but nutrition, environment, and cultivation practices shape how that potential finally expresses itself. Huge thanks to GrowDiaries. Huge thanks to the community. The followers. The longtime supporters. The silent readers. The lovers. The skeptics. The haters. The growers sharing knowledge every day. All of you are part of these journeys too. And even though this chapter now closes… The story continues. New genetics. New runs. New experiments. New legends. The frozen north never truly sleeps. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

Noticed runoff ec getting high in week 4 Increased runoff to lower it below 3. Plants drink around 1.5 l a day each. On 14.06 I gave them bioenhacer, trikologic and biofuse mix. 60 l of nutrient solution is sufficient for around 3 days.

Seit ende der woche 5 in flow beginnt sie dick zu werden. Wird sicher noch ordentlich zulegen. Duft ist sehr komplex. Sie riecht herb,erdig,leicht oldschool kushy und doch irgendwie süßlich. Bin schon sehr aufs endprodukt gespannt. Wie flitzebogen😁
