Absolutely LOVE this strain. She has only been curing for a little over a week but I had to try her. She is one of the 3 most potent strains I have ever consumed, tastes like grapes on the inhale, and then on the exhale it tastes like a classic chemdawg, piney and gassey. You will feel the effects by the time you finish exhaling. I lover her so much I am going to run her back after I take a little break to travel. The only thing I regret with this grow is that I used much too small of a final container. No fault of the genetics, it was all me. I will run her back in a 12.5 gallon container and see what happens. My goal is to run 2 photoperieods every year, and get a Kilogram off each plant. Might be somewhat ambitious but I enjoy challenging myself and improving. I cannot wait to squeeze this lady, but I want to give her a few more weeks in the jars first. I will post some videos down the line. If anyone wants a quick pound or two of some potent ass indica leaning flower, this is your girl. I honestly don't know how I could even bring myself to grow another autoflower after smoking this lady.....She blows every auto I ever grew out of the water.

Germination Report 1. Introduction & Thank Yous First of all: a huge thank you to: Zamnesia Seeds — for trusting us with the LSD (feminized) genetics. Plagron — for providing the LightMix Bio soil and support. Future of Grow — for the Air Grow Pro III 2.95 Hyper Red LED setup and the Nova 2C Pro control system. Cannakan — for the germination bundle that allowed us to start strong and clean. And of course: GrowDiaries community, our sponsors, our followers (both long-time and new), even the haters — everyone who watches, learns, and shares energy with us. Without all of you, this project wouldn’t be as magical, ambitious, or grounded. 2. Project Overview & Germination Method Goal: To document the full lifecycle of LSD (Zamnesia Seeds) — from seed to harvest — and share detailed observations, successes, and learnings in a transparent, educational way. Germination method used: Water soak – We placed the seeds in clean, filtered water. After about 24-36 hours, the taproots (“tails”) emerged. Direct sow into soil – Once taproots appeared, we gently transferred the seeds into Plagron LightMix Bio, without using a separate starter medium. Monitoring – We maintained optimal conditions for moisture, temperature, and gentle light (using the Future of Grow LED at low power to avoid shocking the seedlings). Now, we wait and observe. We will document germination rate, any variability, and the time it takes for cotyledons and true leaves to appear. 3. Genetics: LSD (Zamnesia Seeds) Strain background: This is LSD from Zamnesia Seeds, feminized. Genetics: Mazar-I-Sharif × Skunk. It’s 70% indica / 30% sativa. THC: up to 25% under optimal conditions. CBD: very low (~0-1%) per breeder. Flowering: ~8-9 weeks photoperiod. Size: indoor ~90 cm; outdoor ~100 cm. Yield: indoor up to 700 g/m² (per Zamnesia) Terpene profile & effects: Dominant terpenes: caryophyllene and myrcene. Aroma: earthy, skunky, slightly sour / tabacco-like. Effect: long-lasting, relaxing body stone + euphoric, “trippy” cerebral effect — a bit psychedelic but not aggressively “couch-lock.” What to Expect (Phenotype & Growth): Because of the indica dominance, expect relatively compact, bushy plants. Good resin production — Mazar-I-Sharif contributes strong resin traits. Given the genetics, plants may be quite stress tolerant (Zamnesia notes stress resistance). Internodal spacing may be moderate, but because of high resin potential, it's ideal to manage light and train carefully for dense bud structure. 4. Soil: Plagron LightMix Bio Why LightMix Bio? Using Plagron LightMix Bio, we're choosing a light, biologically active substrate that’s ideal for young plants and seedlings. Key soil characteristics: According to Plagron’s technical data sheet, LightMix has a pH around 6.3 (1:1.5). Electrical Conductivity (EC) is about 1.0 mS/cm (1:1.5) when measured by their method. Nutrient-wise, LightMix contains modest levels of N, P₂O₅, K₂O — enough to support seedlings but not so rich that there’s risk of nutrient burn early. Plagron recommends starting to feed only after the first week, so the soil gives a gentle, buffered base for early growth. Implications for germination: By sowing directly into this soil, we give seedlings a stable, gentle environment. The buffering capacity helps prevent pH swings. Biological activity (microorganisms) in LightMix helps nutrient uptake once roots grow, but since LightMix is relatively “light,” we must monitor and plan feeding as plants move beyond seedling stage. 5. Lighting Setup: Future of Grow We're using Future of Grow gear, which is absolutely top-tier, so here’s what to expect and how it plays into our germination + veg phases. Light unit: Air Grow Pro III 2.95 Hyper Red LED from Future of Grow. Power: ~600 W (±5%). Photon Flux / PPF: ~ 1,794 µmol/s. Efficiency: 2.95 µmol/J. Dimmer: has a 25% - 50% - 75% - 100% dimmer and supports 0-10 V dimming (compatible with controllers like Trolmaster) LED spectrum: “3-in-1” design: different spectral blends for different growth stages (germination, vegetative, flowering) + enriched red spectrum (“Hyper Red”) for boosting yield & resin. Advantages of Hyper Red: More red-light proportion increases resin production, helps open stomata, can reduce stretch, and may suppress botrytis risk. Energy savings: Compared to HPS, this LED uses 40-60% less energy per the manufacturer. IP54 rating, good build, driver remote cable (4m) so we can position driver outside the tent if needed. I control everything with Nova 2C Pro from Future of Grow. This gives me precise control over dimming (0–10 V), which is ideal for adjusting light intensity across phases (germination, veg, flower). With the Nova 2C Pro, you can program light schedules, dimming profiles, and likely integrate with other environment controls (if you have them) — giving you the flexibility to ramp up the light gently for seedlings, then scale up in veg, and later maximize for flowering. 6. What We Expect (Short-Term & Long-Term) Short-Term (Germ + Seedling): Germination rate: because you soaked the seeds and then sowed, I’d expect a high germination percentage, given healthy seeds and good water conditions. Timing: tails already out after ~24–36h is excellent. In soil, cotyledons should emerge in ~2–4 days, and true leaves by ~5–7 days (depending on conditions). Root development: roots will begin colonizing the LightMix, tapping into its modest nutrients. You should see good vigor if moisture, pH, and light are stable. Risk factors: overwatering, damping off, or too intense light stress at this stage. Use gentle misting, maintain humidity, and avoid driving the light too hard too early. Long-Term (Veg → Flower → Harvest): Vegetative phase: plants should remain relatively compact (given LSD’s indica-dominance), but with your LED, you can promote healthy branching and resinous pre-flowers. Flower phase: Expect robust resin production, thanks to Hyper-Red spectrum. The LSD genetics + red-enriched light may push for dense, potent buds. Yield: Realistically, yield will depend on how well you manage training, light, nutrients, and space — but given the reported potential (~700 g/m²), with your gear and a solid grow, you have a chance to get very respectable yields. Quality: Expect a classic skunky, earthy aroma, with the “trippy” effect LSD is known for. The terpene profile (caryophyllene, myrcene) should shine, especially if your environmental control is good. 7. Risks & Challenges, and How We’ll Mitigate Them Overwatering/damping-off Mitigation: Use light misting, allow soil surface to slightly dry, maintain humidity at moderate levels, and avoid waterlogging. pH drift Mitigation: Although LightMix is buffered, check pH of feed water once you start feeding; adjust if needed. Light stress Mitigation: Start with low dimmer settings, keep light at a safe distance in germ / seedling phase, then gradually ramp up. Stretch / internode control Mitigation: Use training (LST, topping, etc.) if needed, and take advantage of the red-enriched spectrum which naturally reduces excessive vertical stretch. Pest / disease Mitigation: Keep clean environment, good air circulation, monitor for early signs, and use environmentally friendly control strategies. 8. Metrics We'll Track & Report on GrowDiaries To make this truly educational and transparent, here are the metrics we document and report regularly: Light settings (dimmer %, height above canopy) Environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) Any nutrient data (once feeding begins) Training methods used (if any) Milestones (first node, stretch, preflowers) Photographs (high resolution) to document morphology 9. Conclusion / Reflection This germination run is more than just a “test”: it’s the foundation of a full seed-to-harvest journey with a legendary strain — LSD — under truly professional-level gear and high-quality organic soil. With the support of Zamnesia Seeds, Plagron, Future of Grow, and Cannakan, we have a dream team backing us. That means not just for yield or potency — but for education: growing in a way that inspires and informs. We are deeply grateful to everyone: sponsors, community, followers, and even critics — because their energy fuels our commitment to be open, rigorous, and passionate.

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.

The end of week 1 has arrived. We all know how it goes. Just playing the waiting game. At this stage these girls are just working on building their root system. The roots should be hitting the reservoir in the bottom of the buckets soon then they should take off. Got the water pumping and the lights beaming 24 hours a day. Running a low dose of maxigro. Keeping the ph around 6. Will probably be topping them around day 12. Would be amazing if I can get them ready to switch to flower at the end of week 3. But for now I'm just going to check on them 420 times a day hoping they don't die. Might be back next week if they are alive. Happy growing!

Note: Moisture and Temp readings are done in the mornings. Lights are on an automated 17/9 schedule unless stated otherwise. Drip water system waters 1 Liter every 9 hours. Quick Notes: I notice as I go into full-blown flower, the plants are starting to need less frequent waterings, especially North. The watering system overflows her pot often, and the AKs soils feel relatively damp before the auto-watering starts. All plants are stopping their growth also. North is the furthest into flowering and is starting to smell and get sticky, the microscope is showing trichome development also. 📏: AK1: 36 in (91.44 cm), AK2: 44 in (111.76 cm), North: 24 in (60.96 cm) Day 64 (Jul 29) - Manually watering today. All plants drinking a bit slower, especially North (probably had a 0.5 liter overspill). Refilling drip water system tomorrow to get a better pace for watering. 💧: Tap: 7.45 pH Adjusted with pH down. AK1: 1.5 liter (5.95 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 3 ml FloraBloom, 2.5 ml CalMag) ~1220 PPM AK2: 1.5 liter (6.05 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 1.5 ml FloraGro, 3 ml FloraBloom, 2.5 ml CalMag) ~1150 PPM North: 1.5 liter (x pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 3 ml FloraBloom, 2.5 ml CalMag) 💦: 57% (37-67) - 🌡️: 27C (22-30) Day 64 (Jul 30) - Noticing Plants drinking slower. Soil not completely dry in the mornings as usual. Defoliated AK2 a bit more. Attempted to Supercrop but decided not to follow through (crushed main trunk between fingers without bending it over) Watered all plants and refilled drip water system with 14.2 liters. 💧: Tap: x pH Adjusted with pH Down. All: 14.2 liter (6.2 pH, 14.5 ml FloraMicro, 14.5 ml FloraGro, 33.5 ml FloraBloom, 33.5 ml CalMag) ~1250 PPM, ~2250 EC 💦: 49% (38-70) - 🌡️: 28C (20-30) Day 65 - Plants look healthy. Set drip System to water 1 liter every 9 hours. 💦: 38% (36-65) - 🌡️: 26C (20-29) Day 66 - Plants look healthy. 💦: X% -🌡️: xC Day 67 - Trimmed some leaves below. Humidity spiked unexpectedly, buying dehumidifier. 💦: X% (40-79) - 🌡️: XC (21-29) Day 68 - Humidity spike overnight. Manually watered AK1 & AK2, not North (didn't seem like she needed it). Looks like the plants are needing a bit less watering overall. 💧: Tap: x pH Adjusted with pH down. AK1: 1.5 liter (6.05 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 1.3 ml FloraGro, 2.3 ml FloraBloom, 2.3 ml CalMag) AK2: 1.5 liter (5.95 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 1.3 ml FloraGro, 2.3 ml FloraBloom, 2.3 ml CalMag) 💦: 45% (39-71) - 🌡️: 27C (20-29) Day 69 (week 9) - Humidity spike overnight. Set water system to water 1 liter every 11 hours. Dehumidifier came in mail, monitoring effectiveness throughout the day and tomorrow. Refilled water system and set to water 1 liter every 10 hours. All: 14.2 liter (6.2 pH, 14.5 ml FloraMicro, 14.5 ml FloraGro, 33.5 ml FloraBloom, 33.5 ml CalMag) ~1550 PPM 💦: 44% (36-70) - 🌡️: 26C (19-29)

Day 5 since time change to 12/12. Hey everyone ☺️. Finally the time has come :-) The lady moved into the flower tent on January 6th, 2021 😁. The day before, of course, a cutting was taken 👍. In the flowering tent, the distance between the plant and the lamp is 40 cm so that she can get used to the strength of the lamp. After 3-5 days I go down to 30 cm. This week it was watered twice with 1 l per plant. GHSC enhancers were added to one wash :-). Flower fertilizer will only be added in 12-16 days as soon as the first blossoms are there :-). Otherwise the tent was completely cleaned and the humidifier refilled. For the next few days I have filled fresh osmosis water in canisters again :-). Next week I will remove the bottom shoots so that the energy doesn't end up going into small popcorn buds 😉. There is nothing more to report this week and I wish you all a lot of fun with the update 😀. Stay healthy and let it grow 🙏🏻🍀 You can buy this Strain at : www.Zamnesia.com Type: Banana ☝️🏼 Genetics: OG Kush x unkown 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC. Add Cal / Mag to 0.4 Ec Ph with Organic Ph - to 5.5 - 5.8 .

Not a great selection. Low yield. Hopefully it will taste and smoke great as it looks.
