Hi everyone 😁 I would like to thank you all fellow growers and breeders for such a great support on this journey. Thank you Grow Diaries and Green House Seeds. Without you all this wouldn't be possible. Love you all First ever recorded diary so don't know where to even start 😅 I am returning to growing after many many years of break. This is my first ever experience with autoflowers, scrog, lst, led and such tiny grow space. Choice of strain - Big Bang Auto from Green House Seeds. I have run so many strains from this seed bank in the past and I was always happy with the final outcome. Was looking for indica dominant strain, fast flowering cycle and very important heavy yields on small spaces. Again thank you GHSC in very happy of choosing this strain. Little bit about my cabinet. External dimensions: 64 x 50 x 114 cm (W x D x H) Growing area: 55 x 47 cm cm (0.26 m2) Panel based on SAMSUNG LM301B diodes Spectrum: Samsung LM301B – 5000 x72 Samsung LM301B – 3000k x136 Samsung LM301B – 660nm x9 Samsung LM301B – IR 760nm x1 Regulation in the range of 20W - 110W - Meanwell XLG 100-H-AB PPF 300 umol/s PPFD 890 mol/m2/s @30c Total of 6 adjustable fans, 4 exhaust fans 4 modes - silent/drying, vegetation, flowering, full power Active carbon mass in the filter 2kg Absolutely love my grow cabinet. Thinking of next build already. My grow 3 beautiful ladies - Nuna, Luna and Sweet Mary Jane. This was a pleasure experience growing autos for the first time. All 3 ladies on the end developed perfectly. Nuna, left corner lady- tall and beautiful. She had some problems to switch to flowering and was even considering removing her but very happy that I was patient enough and turned great. Luna, right corner lady - have to say she is the queen. She has the most heavy buds from all, the most. colorful. Her wet weight was 420g, can't say how much of dry but guessing approx. 100g Sweet Mary Jane, front seat lady. I think she was the most pleasant to grow of her location but due to no other spare space for drying I belive that I have harvested her at least a week to early. If keep longer I belive she could be the most yielder from all 3. Thank you all for all the support, help, comments, likes, messeges. Love you all 💚💚💚 Will update this diary in some time and when puff perfectly cured 😎 Peace and love ✌️💚

im not training these at all im strictly watching them grow and studying how they are naturally. messing with the lights a little, and got some light burn on both plants cause the lights were wayy to close. but all that being said im recalibrated with the lights, added in the blurple light just because i wanted more specrtum. growth has been explosive. i incorporated fish shit into every feeding and watering this week and i love it so far.

Ok so had a lot to do this week harvested the large critcial mass to which I got 6 n half 0z from one plant so happy with that i also had a few issues with enviroment mainting right temp and humidty as been a lil issue but think all is well now so there all now on the 7 week of flower think I may push these as far as I can to maximise yield potential overall a real good plant to grow had very few issues from start to finish a top strain a deffo keeper for the garden of mothers in my opinion

Veräuft sehr gut, aber mein Problem ist,das ich nicht genau weiß ,welche Blätter besser noch weg können,und welche Sie benötigt.Bei meinen letzten Grows habe ich zuviel abgeschnitten,und die Pflanzen haben es mir nicht gedankt.Jemand einen Tip.Habe dutzende Tutorials geschaut,aber es ist trotzdem schwer. P.S so ein Stretch gibt es gar nicht ca 60cm in 3 Wochen gewachsen,glaubt mir Keiner!!! Habe jetzt ca 30% Blätter abgeschnitten, es werden noch etliche folgen.Am WE wird sie nochmal richtig entlaubt,will sie nicht so stressen!!

🔥 SOUR DIESEL — The Ascension of a Legend Germination Report — Special Edition 8×8 Last 2025 Run ⸻ PART I — THE BIRTH OF A LEGEND 1. Origins in the Shadows of the East Coast Long before dispensaries, strain catalogs, and global cannabis culture, there was a raw, underground era — a time when growers traded cuts like sacred treasures and seeds traveled through word of mouth. From that world, deep within the 1990s New York and East Coast scene, Sour Diesel was born. Her creation wasn’t planned. It wasn’t designed. It was destiny — forged by accident, survival, and raw genetic power. ⸻ 2. The Accidental Ancestry The story goes like this: A ChemDog ’91–dominant hybrid hermaphrodited during a run, releasing stray pollen that landed on a nearby Super Skunk / Northern Lights female. From those seeds emerged something no one expected: • The fuel-soaked punch of Chem • The acidic sour electricity of Super Skunk • The foundation strength of Northern Lights A grower sprouted them… and one plant rose above everything — the now-mythic Diesel. Her aroma was so fierce, so unmistakably sour, that she earned her name within minutes of her first cure. ⸻ 3. Rise to Mythic Status Sour Diesel spread through New York like fire: • A cerebral rush unlike anything else • A terp profile that floods a room instantly • A clone-only legend for most of her early life By the early 2000s, she wasn’t just a strain — she was the identity of the East Coast cannabis movement. People crossed states for a cut. Growers protected her genetics like heirlooms. Smokers remembered their first hit for years. To this day, Sour Diesel is spoken of with the reverence reserved for royalty. And this diary will follow one seed — a direct descendant of that legacy. ⸻ PART II — THE OFFICIAL GERMINATION REPORT (Special Edition ) 1. Overview & Intent Unlike the other folders in the 8×8 run, this Sour Diesel will not follow the 12/12-from-seed protocol. A legend deserves tradition: • Light Cycle: 18/6 • Future Veg Duration: 2–3 weeks • Purpose: Highlight natural Diesel vigor, structure, and expression This report focuses on one selected seed, chosen from a germinated batch specifically for this diary. This plant will be the face of the Sour Diesel lineage for the entire run. ⸻ 2. Seeds Started & The Chosen Phenotype • Multiple seeds were germinated • One seed displayed unmistakable Diesel traits from the beginning: • Fast, aggressive taproot • Superior symmetry • Confident seedling posture • Sharp leaf morphology She has been chosen as the singular protagonist of The Ascension of a Legend. ⸻ 3. Environmental Conditions All conditions match the main room’s baseline: • Light: 18 hours light / 6 hours dark • Temperature: Stable, optimal range • Humidity: Supportive, with micro-condensation forming naturally • Medium: Identical substrate and workflow used across the project for consistency She will meet the rest of the cohort in approximately two weeks. ⸻ 4. Germination Performance The chosen seedling performed flawlessly: • Immediate germination • Strong, straight taproot penetration • Rapid cotyledon lift and expansion • Zero deformities or hesitation From the very first hour, she behaves like a plant that knows she carries history. ⸻ 5. Macro Photography Observations Macro imaging reveals the intimate details of her early development: • Micro-droplets on serrations resemble liquid diamonds under magnification • Leaf texture already shows thin sativa structure, a Diesel signature • Early cell development is visibly active • Light refraction on hydrated surfaces creates that signature “Diesel sparkle” These photographs elevate the documentation into an art form — the micro-world of a macro legend. ⸻ 6. Early Vegetative Behavior (18/6) Under classic veg lighting, she displays: • Ambitious vertical intent • Rapid leaf development • Strong metabolic rhythm • Balanced early node spacing She is clearly preparing for the explosive growth Sour Diesel is known for. ⸻ 7. The Road Ahead Over the next weeks: • She will continue veg under 18/6 • Macro photography will capture her transformation • At Week 1 Veg, I will prepare a special report titled: 🔥 “Sour Diesel — Rise of the Prime Phenotype” • She will later join the 12/12 cohort, standing out as the seasoned champion of the room FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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 A6000 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) 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.

11/3 Week 6 Watered roughly one gal each @6.5PH, Fish Sh!t 5ml - Karo 1 tps /gal Flower Girl still in the pot, no deficiencies I can see, well new ones :) Mag-Sulfur Foliar spray (Epsom Salt 1tbs/gal) on all as leaving cal-mag out this time Moved the two healthy plants to the center of the light, they can use it, the others might respond well to lower levels. 11/4 Better pics uploaded Placed Brandy on a block of coco coir to bring her canopy up to Layla's level. Moved Maggie to the corner she has a stretch going that I HOPE is ending and I dont want to set the lights to her. Watching that plant carefully Considering a PK boost watching only Layla for that as the other two ... well hell what can they tell me? 11/5 Working to getting the canopy under control with one stunted plant and another stretching like crazy. Put a block under Brandy to move her up level with Layla. Trained down Maggie this growth needs to end, it was already stressed. Still giving light pref to healthy plants. 11/6 Raised lights three clicks, increased extraction, showing some heat stress in those edges. 11/7 Good results on the heat stress curling has ended. Noticed some improvement also in the tops of Brandy and Maggie, so raised lights another couple of clicks. See if it continues, coming up on a make or break feeding in couple of days. update Foliar Feed All - Epsom Salt 1tbs/gal Well Maggie's came today - To runoff- 1% peroxide - 5ml CalMag - PH 6.8 Hitting Sulfur as hard as I can. Before pics posted Brandy not dry enough waiting Layla just got fed but she got pics too as there are signs of Mag deficiency 1 gal 6.5 PH - CalMag 5ml - Fish Sh!t 5ml - Bio_Bloom 5ml as a PK booster JIC 11/8 Video of plants 24hrs after giving Maggie the h2o2 1% , think she looks better lets see how it goes 11/9 48 hrs after treatment and Maggie is showing great improvement, serious improvement in leaf structure and coloring. Pics at lights out tomorrow new week anyway. Brandy showing some improvement but its early. Canopy is level now so lights set to Maggie being slightly taller ***Last update before the new week.*** May have found ONE of my problems,certainly not THE problem, but one. I have been using lemon juice as a PH UP since we went organic late last spring. Because of all the problems I have been looking into a lot of things further and found that lemon juice begins to degrade as a PH up after as little as an hour. A 6.0 PH water gallon can go to 6.5ish in 24 hours simply sitting in a dark corner in a jug. One can imagine the variances in soil. Why I dont know but I am going back to chemical PH additives post haste in fact its already done.

6/30 I messed up and put 8 days last week so I'll have tp do a six day week to get back on schedule. Pounded rain last night I guess. Very intense but very brief. As you can see in the video the plants are found great. A few have revegged so I'll need to defoliate the middle. I could make a TON of clones but it's pretty late for that. I might clone a couple outstanding plants to keep the genetics. Still seeing some pillar damage. Might do bt tonight. I'll keep this updated.

Poppin Bottlez ranging from 145-165cm. Grim Spodie are very close to 180cm both. Most of them are clearly flowering allready. Poppin Bottlez looking really dense, Grim Spodie are more stretched out. I gave them a little nutrientboost, cause some of them were starting to get a little bit yellow/light green.

Week three these ladies only stretched about 1'. Got to see some nice bud development and did alot of plant training. Canopy is filling out nice, no issues thus far.
