First time grower - Day 3 - Seedling Stage Unknown strain, hopefully its a female Light meter currently reads 101 lux x100 Should I give it more lighting or put it closer to the plant? Using roots organic soil, should I prepare for nutrient feeding after week 1? And if yes, what nutrients should I feed them?

Day 92 This baby still going :P i think will reach 100 days. cant wait for it to be ready and see final weight

Apricot is going fantastic, she should take right off this week with her feed . Herself and the mimosa cake look like the pick of the bunch so far .

She’s still stretching! We are at 57” and growing. I’m not sure how much more she will stretch but if she gets over 65-66” I’ll have to bend (supercrop) her over so she’s not blocking the light.

I'm gonna need a parachute Insane! One girl’s nearly finished, and the other two are in that last push.

September 10th, Like I mentioned in my last post. She started flowering. But i was truly amazed The flowering of rhis girl from the week is nothing like what i have witnesssed so far in my grows outdoor. Usually outdoors, plants preflower and stack up for ages.(4weeks or so) This Killer kush seems to skip time and pop out nugs all at once. Tiny balls all over this plant now. Buds ..inside, outside and.in between Cant wait so wait to see how this one progresses during weeks to come ! Weather was stormy for a few days. Fortunatly more sunshine is on it's way...according to weather model.

День 101 и 41 день 21/12! Сильных изменений не наблюдается , она медленно зреет ,но то количество трихом которая она выделяет очень удивляет . Она на столько липкая , что не возможно дотронуться ))) На этой неделе планирую снять пару больших листьев и дать ей двигаться на автопилоте)

10 plants harvested of gushers 32oz total dry

The last week under the sun. Now there will be three days of darkness. Then it’s time to harvest. The Trichomheads looking good,

Day 28 week 4 of flower plants looking good I dropped a 3L water bottle on a string which snapped a whole branch from the bottom 😳 on right plant 😭

This week went ok, but I did break two of the four tops early in the week. They have both recovered but it slowed me down a few days. I got the final four toppings done today on day 49, so I will probably give them two or three weeks and see where they're at, and hopefully be about ready to flip to flower. Not much left to do from here, just a little LST on the 8 tops to spread them out, and then just sit back and watch them grow. Thanks for stopping by, be safe and Blaze On!

Day 49

She's looking absolutely beautiful this week, developing fast and very healthy. She's dealing with some fungus gnats but she's fine, she's growing in living soil By Florians living organics. ✌️👨‍🌾💚❤️💛

Settimane 10 di fioritura iniziata e hanno un profumo buonissimo e forte, a fine di questa settimana vedrò se raccogliere o aspettare un’altra settimana poiché i fiori in basso non sono ancora abbastanza maturi. Questa è la mia prima esperienza e so di aver commesso errori ma le piante hanno comunque resistito. Avrei bisogno di qualche consiglio per capire se dopo questa settimana devo raccogliere oppure no. Ciao a tutti

Week 12 | Animal Mints — Legends of the Frozen North Week 12 and the room is doing exactly what we hoped it would do. This is the part of the run where patience matters more than intervention. The structure is built. The weight is there. The resin is there. The metabolism is still active. Now the job is simple: maintain stability, reduce noise, and let the plants finish with calm. And that is exactly where this room is right now. A quick recap: 12/12 from seed For anyone new joining the diary, this run was flowered under 12/12 from seed — meaning these plants were grown under a flowering light schedule from day one, instead of being vegged under 18/6 and flipped later. That changes the entire architecture of the plant. Instead of building wide, heavily branched bushes during a long vegetative phase, the plants stay more columnar, more direct, and more apically focused. Less wasted lateral growth. Less unnecessary vegetation. More efficient top-to-bottom flower development. That’s why this run looks like this. Lean frames. Stacked tops. Excellent vertical flower distribution. And dense, productive bud sites from upper canopy all the way into the lowers. This style is not about brute force. It is about efficiency, timing, and letting the plant express itself with less interruption. Week 12: the room is finishing beautifully This week the room feels exactly like a late flower room should feel. Not loud. Not explosive. Just mature. The flowers are dense and fully formed now, with visible weight from top to bottom and clear structural consistency across the canopy. The upper tops have finished stacking and are now settling into their final shape, while the lower and mid sites continue proving exactly why the undercanopy support mattered so much in this run. That lower development is one of the biggest wins here. The undercanopy lighting did exactly what it was supposed to do: it kept the lower flower sites active, productive, and worth carrying to the finish. Instead of soft lowers and wasted interior material, the plant continued producing meaningful flower mass deeper into the canopy. Combined with the top lighting, this created a much more even distribution of usable flower across the full plant. And that shows clearly now. The room is not just top-heavy. It is productive throughout. Resin, color, and late-flower expression This week the visual changes are subtle, but important. The pistils are darkening and receding. The calyxes are swelling. The resin heads are fully formed and standing dense across bracts, sugar leaves, and surrounding surfaces. This is the part of flower where the plant stops trying to build and starts trying to finish. You can see it in the way the flowers are tightening. You can see it in the way the bracts are swelling. You can see it in the color shift — greener tissue fading into softer lime tones, deeper pistil oxidation, and the first real signs of end-of-cycle maturity beginning to settle in. Nothing dramatic. Just the plant slowly shifting its priorities. And that is exactly what we want. Feeding strategy: now just enzymes At this stage, we have stopped feeding base nutrients and are now running only Pure Zym with water. That is intentional. At week 12, the plant does not need more pushing. It does not need more nitrogen. It does not need more unnecessary input. It needs space to finish. By this point, the soil still holds more than enough residual nutrition to carry the plant through the last stretch. The goal now is not to keep forcing uptake — it is to let the plant naturally use what is already available, finish metabolically, and begin consuming what remains in the medium and in its own tissues. That is why we simplify here. No force. No excess. No chasing numbers. Just enough enzymatic support to help keep the rhizosphere active, assist in breaking down residual organic matter, and keep the medium biologically functional while the plant finishes the job. That is the role of the enzymes now. Not feeding the plant harder. Helping the system stay clean and available while the plant completes itself. Water, EC, and why less is more now Water remains simple. We are running rainwater mixed with recovered humidifier water, plus enzymes only. No pH correction. No heavy EC. No over-management. Input EC is staying extremely soft, around 0.1–0.2, just enough to carry the enzymes without unnecessarily loading the medium this late in flower. pH continues to land naturally around 6.8, and we are leaving it there. At this point, we are not interested in forcing perfect numbers on paper. We are interested in maintaining a stable root environment the plant is already happy in. And the plant is clearly happy in it. This is one of those moments where overcorrection usually creates more problems than it solves. The room is stable. The plants are functioning. So we let stable stay stable. Still drinking = still working One of the clearest signs that the room is still metabolically active is water consumption. Even this late, the plants are still drinking 1.7–1.8L per day, down slightly from the peak (~2L/day), but still very strong for this stage. That matters. Because even though the room looks like it is approaching the end, the plant is still moving water, still transpiring, still exchanging, still functioning. That means metabolism is still active. And active metabolism means the plant is still finishing properly. They are not stalled. They are not fading out prematurely. They are simply slowing down the way mature plants should. That is a very different thing. Climate: stable beats perfect Environment remains essentially unchanged because it does not need to change. Day temps around 26°C Night temps around 18°C RH around 60% Root zone around 21°C CO₂ around 1000 ppm Stable, predictable, and easy for the plants to work in. Could we push harder? Probably. Could we chase tighter numbers? Also yes. But at this stage, the return is rarely worth the extra energy, extra complexity, or extra stress introduced into an already stable room. Leaf VPD remains within a comfortable working range, the plants are responding well, and the room is balanced. That is enough. Not every decimal needs to be optimized into exhaustion. Lowering PPFD for the finish We are also beginning to reduce PPFD now as we move into the final stretch. Again, this is intentional. Late flower is not the time to keep pushing peak intensity into tissue that is already trying to mature. The bulk is built. The structure is set. Now we shift from production pressure into finishing pressure. Lowering PPFD slightly helps reduce unnecessary stress, lowers metabolic demand, and lets the plant focus more naturally on ripening rather than continued forced output. At this point, we are no longer asking for more mass. We are asking for completion. That is an important difference. Final thoughts This week is one of my favorite moments in a run. Not because it is flashy. Because it is honest. This is what the end should feel like: less intervention, more observation. less forcing, more trust. less noise, more patience. The work was already done. Now we let the plant finish saying what it was trying to say all along. Big love to everyone still following this one — the growers, the quiet readers, the long-timers, the curious ones, the skeptics, the supporters, the OGs, and even the haters. Energy moves either way. Might as well keep it good. Big love as always to Zamnesia for the genetics, to GrowDiaries for the platform, and to everyone spending time here watching this run unfold. We are close now. One more calm week. Maybe two. Now we watch. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

😵😵😵😵

all 3 plants are the same strain from the same seed provider. I used Peet pellets for the first time and I am extremely disappointed. they all popped within 18 hrs, it was a promising start, but I think the webbing holding the pods together is constricting the roots on the plant to the left. there was a devastating transplant that had damaged some roots but the other 2 plants seem to be....ok patience... if you noticed I had a heating mat for about the first full month of growth, I live in an old apartment and we have old windows that don't hold the heat, I wanted the plants to grow and develop enough before I took it out of the room. this may have stunted growth for a few days this past week but I believe it was a must to keep the plants health... they were my last 3 seeds SPIDER FARMER... I have had this light for under a year and was very lucky to get the adjustable dimmer when I did order it...its an incredible tool for growing and since we don't want light in the tent we can't have a digital readout showing power from the dimmer and this is why I got the "EVE SMART PLUG"... it works perfectly with the SPIDER FARMER light and will help me perfect my future grows. SECRET JARDIN.... y'all need to do something about these loud 6" oscillating fans....I thought one was a fluke until I plugged the second in..... terrible, absolutely garbage...

She has stretch 17 cm this week, nice stretch. Is is getting tall. Next week she should get more bushy after this week defoliation.

The 7th week started. Based on the Breeder's description it is supposed to be the final week for The Gelato Cookie D'ohpe so it should be ready to harvest. It is my first grow but I can say it needs a minimum of 2 weeks to be ready. I think 10 weeks at least. I have checked another diary with the same strain and it took 10-12 weeks to be finished. I placed the Purple Punch 38 hours Darkness so from now I will give 14 hours darkness and 10 hours light schedule to start flowering. They are in the same tent so I take out in the morning to be in darkness, and put back at night. I did reset the timers. Water: 125 ml 2x daily each plant so altogether 250ml a day for 2 plants. I raise up every week with 50 ml a week per plant. Fertilization the same amount of water the same acacia honey around 2 big spoons and bat guano 1 teaspoon per 1-liter water and I fertilize it 3 times a week every second day on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, plus one-half day like on Saturday once. So from today (Thursday), I started forcing the feminized strain Purple Punch to flower also after 45 days from germination. This week not too much things to say. The Gelato Cookie D'ohpe stopped growing just added an extra 5 cm to its height. Hopefully it focuses on the bigger buds creation. Purple Punch grew an extra 2 cm. End of the week Purple Punch is 37 cm, Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is 70cm.
