🌿 White Widow – Week 5 Flower (12/12 from Seed) This week marks a very special stage in the journey of our legendary White Widow. She’s fully into flower mode now, and what a sight she is. Her structure remains compact and elegant, but her buds are bulking beautifully. The trichomes are already covering her in a frosty layer, and her pistils stand out with those iconic, vibrant white hairs that give her such presence. Her leaves are a deep, rich green, almost darker than the sisters around her. This makes me wonder if she might show us some darker expressions as the weeks progress. It’s one of those fascinating mysteries of White Widow, you never really know until she decides to reveal it. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition This week’s recipe combines Plagron and Aptus inputs, working hand in hand: • Plagron • Power Buds → flower formation boost • Sugar Royal → metabolism & terpene support • Green Sensation → bulking, quality, and finishing power • Aptus • All-in-One Liquid → full-spectrum base feed • CalMag Boost → structural support & deficiency prevention • Regulator → stress resistance & nutrient uptake enhancer 💡 Even though the super soil is reading around 5.75 NPK and already contains nutrients, we’re boosting her further because this girl is on a 12/12 (11/13) from seed shuttle. Her timeline is faster, so we want to see how far she can go and what she can take without stress. This is a balancing act, pushing her potential while respecting her limits. ⸻ ⚖️ 12/12 from Seed vs. Normal Veg + Flower Cycle For those joining now, here’s why White Widow looks the way she does: • Normal Cycle (Veg + Flower): • Weeks of 18/6 light first → plants grow tall, with big root systems. • 12/12 flip triggers stretch → often 2–3× size increase. • 12/12 (or 11/13) from Seed: • No long veg phase → plant stays smaller and more compact. • Buds start forming early → less size, but quicker cycles. • Ideal for experiments, time-saving, or small grows. 👉 Our White Widow is a prime example: compact frame, dense cola, side branches forming golf-ball buds. Small in stature, but already showing big personality. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temperature: ~28–30°C • Humidity: ~57–60% • VPD: ~1.3–1.9 kPa • Light: Balanced spectrum & PPFD, designed for resin production & compact growth She has stayed stress-free despite the warm climate, showing her resilience. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and Not to Expect) Expect: • Buds bulking even further, stacking on that main cola and side branches. • Trichomes and frost building up week after week. • Aromas starting to get stronger as resin production increases. Not to Expect: • Major vertical stretch → she has chosen her form and will stay compact. • Quick finish → White Widow is a classic that takes her time to do things right. ⸻ 🗓️ Timeline Recap – From Seed to Week 5 Flower • Week 1: Germination → mistakes with the heat mat, but one strong survivor carried the torch. • Week 2: Settled into soil, fed gently while super soil activated. • Week 3: Compact growth, strong nodes, and healthy green structure. • Week 4: Transition into flower → bud sites forming, frost beginning. • Week 5 (Now): Full flower mode → trichomes sparkling, pistils shining, cola building beautifully. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude & Community • 🌱 Huge thanks to Zamnesia for these legendary genetics. • 💧 Appreciation to Aptus and Plagron for powering this run with balanced nutrition. • 💡 Shout-out to the gear teams supporting the light and control setup. • ❤️ And, as always, gratitude to you — the community. The lovers, the haters, the readers, the silent ones, and the ones who leave a word.

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

Added white foil in the back of the greenhouse to allow for some more light in the back. She reacted to this fairly quickly by rotating her leaves more upward rather than to one side. I also raised the camera more and adjusted the position of the pot for it to be more centered.

Hi fellow Organic growers. Another week gone and we are into really early flowering. Will be starting Royal Queen Seeds Bloom tablets this week. She stretched so nicely this week that she feeling up her 11 pod, I was also able to do LST every other day. I used HST on 2 middle branches just to slow them down and be able to LST them to. All looking great so far. Day 25 from seed extensive LST with slight defoliation. I am expecting another 2 weeks off stretching so will only LST slightly for better light penetration and air circulation I am happy how she has spread for me by now and with all the potential bud sites she looks stunning. Midweek update day 29 from seed sprouting. Last 4 pictures in diary. Think I have a happy plant. Started Bloom 2 days ago. Hope you all have a great week and Happy Growing Buddy's.

Sorry for the huge delay, I wanted to update this earlier but COVID-19 happened everywhere and many things happened where I live. Nonetheless, I have all the photos and I'll be finishing this diary soon. The smell of both of my babies was quite, quite strong. It even made me feel very dizzy every time I checked them. During the week the leaves from Pistachio started to turn yellow while the ones from Matcha finally started to show signs of the excesses and burn, the mistakes I made earlier started to become more and more apparent so it was only a matter of time. Also, everytime a leaf started to die I removed it as soon as possible... but that might become more evident at the time lapse I uploaded! This was the last week of flower for Pistachio, and I'll leave Matcha a couple more days with some direct light on her (I want her pistils to mature a bit more), but next week is finally the week when I cut them. Trichomes on both plants are ready! 😲 Thanks for reading!

Okay so the result of my LST surprised me like a lot. The plant looks great under the light, it’s still my second grow so I hope to learn a lot about the beautiful plants and how they respond. I want to experience everything to learn from them and know how to respond. I think this week went good but the dry wet cyclus is something I really needed to learn this week. I first tried watering every day but i noticed that the soil wasn’t dry at all, so I thought no that’s maybe just the soil. *Ive learned this cycle in the next week* spoiler alert: it wasn’t I still give around 1 tbsp of the molasses because the plant is really responding good to it. The small plant is also looking healthy so perfect, just keep giving her love. I did a big oops: So, the plant grew bigger and bigger and faster then I could keep up. So I decided to lst some more, Olga went perfect and I build a lot of confidence from that. So... busy with the other “big” plant and I started doing the head top, but the band was just to tight, but I noticed that to late *SNAP*. Did I just snapped the biggest branch of the middle plant? Yes, I hated myself for 4 days until I thought: there are no mistakes, just happy..... (fill in with your brainpower) well see what happens

Day 46: nutrients like plan Pictures are taken on day 47 --------------------------------------------- Not much to say, she is growing good 👍 She still has her "discolouration", which she has since day 1. 😅 Happy growing 🕷️🌱

Had defoliated a few times in the last half of the grow so not too much to do during harvest. Caught the bud rot early so it didn't trouble me through drying. Passed the 'snap test' in 11 days of hanging in 60% ending with 48% humidity in 19°C.

Hello my fellow green fingered friends. Hope you are all well and having a great week 👊🏻 Once again a massive shout to Zamnesia for opportunity to grow out this strain. THANK YOU!! 🙏🏻 Day 14 has arrived! A pretty good week of growth for these ladies. You can really see the 2 that are a couple days behind but they are hanging in there and coming along nicely. Finally the good old British weather has decided to let the sun shine 👌🏻not a lot going on in terms of maintenance just plain water and watch them grow. This week I may start some LST but we shall see. Anyway I’m out. Massive shout to you lovely lot for love and support as always! Really appreciate every single one of you. ✌️🍍👊🏻

We are officially in flower mode, folks! Switched to 12/12 for my photoperiod (the OG Glue), while the autos have already started pre flowering the week before. Got the scrog net set up to manage the incoming stretch, and plan to defoliate a bit the next week. Wasn't able to get a good picture for this week as I was out of town, so used a timelapse video instead.
