Another week just passed. I have reduced the main flowering nutrient by 1ml, because I’ve introduced Plagron Green Sensation as an additional flowering nutrient. This thing increases your yield incredibly! If you start looking at bud formations starting this week, you will notice significant changes.

I'm happy guys, she is doing her thing 👨‍🌾

Frozen Black Cherry is still taking her time… but that’s totally fine! ⏳🍒 The buds are looking absolutely gorgeous – and the smell? Completely different from the RDWC run. It's wild how much the medium can change the terpene profile! 🔥🌿 The bud structure is still dense and consistent, but no color change yet – likely because I kept the temps quite warm these past days and nights 🌡️🌙 Now that the others are almost ready for harvest, I’ll begin slowly dropping the temperature to bring out those beautiful colors across the garden ❄️💜 I’ll give Frozen Cherry all the time she needs – I want all trichomes to turn nice and milky, with a touch of amber for that perfect high 🔬✨ Patience pays off! Don’t forget to follow for updates and final results! 🚀 --- Die Frozen Black Cherry lässt sich noch ein bisschen Zeit… aber das ist völlig in Ordnung! ⏳🍒 Die Buds sehen einfach traumhaft aus – und der Geruch? Komplett anders als beim RDWC-Grow. Kaum zu glauben, wie stark das Medium das Terpenprofil beeinflussen kann! 🔥🌿 Die Budstruktur ist immer noch schön dicht, aber die Farbveränderung lässt bisher auf sich warten – was wohl an den wärmeren Tagen und Nächten liegt, die ich zuletzt gehalten habe 🌡️🌙 Jetzt, wo die anderen fast fertig sind, senke ich langsam die Temperatur, um bei allen nochmal das volle Farbspektrum rauszukitzeln ❄️💜 Frozen Cherry bekommt jetzt einfach die Zeit, die sie braucht – ich will, dass alle Trichome schön milchig sind, mit ein paar bernsteinfarbenen Highlights für die perfekte Wirkung 🔬✨ Geduld zahlt sich aus! Folgt mir, um nichts vom Endspurt zu verpassen! 🚀

What another great week it’s been , today is Day 39 from seed an the lil ladies have jumped into preflower 😍! Yesterday gave em the trim up of the unders , kinda popsicled you can say to each one, cause we want to focus on them colas ! This week we should see some more great progress, let them caps start stacking ! Can’t wait to see what we do next week ! Hope you all enjoy an have an amazing productive day! Peace love an positive vibes to y’all Cheers 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨💨🤙🏻

Top dressed with build a soil craft blend and buildaflower early in the week. Fed a buildabloom compost tea at the end of the week. Didn't take any pictures this week but I did put the timelapse up.

105 days!!!! this week, the girl is really not doing well, it's raining a lot, there's no sun, strong wind .... completely unfavorable conditions: (the weather forecast for the next week doesn't promise anything good, I tried to put her in my mini growing box, but she didn't fit :D so I decided to leave her outside, we'll see what happens, with the auto girls, on my balcony it got quite a good result, but I don't know what will happen with her, since the sun is coming to my balcony less and less often, in September she won't be there, even in very ideal conditions, since it's a northerly wind :D good luck to everyone:).

Week 3 Switched from grow to fish mix this week. This week she had a bit of stress with being too close to the light but after moving her down she seemed fine. She’s a resilient girl, I’ve made many mistakes already but she just bounces back. Installation of carbon filter on day 19. Used rain water again this week seems to be no problems so far. A friend told me I need to purchase some calmag and bio heaven. The only two ones I didn’t currently have. I’m getting a little confused with using these organic products I’m used to using Dutch pro chems in the past but I’m sure I’ll get there in the end. There’s just so much to learn.

On the last day of week 10 I brought it down to 18 hours lights. Then half way through week 11 I brought it to 16 hours. My plan was to reduce light until next week to 12/12 so I could try and induce resin development. One plant is done, as you can see from the trichomes. The other will finish this week. I wasn’t finished flushing and would prefer another week, but I also don’t want couch lock bud.

Pheno #1 New floral notes took place. Still sweet and fruity, but the gas has dissipated. Great density and bud size. Pheno #2 Sour citrus dominated by lime aromas. Good density Beautiful buds covered in trichomes Probably the keeper Pheno #3 Bananas, pineapples, damp earth Biggest buds but not the stickiest Pheno #4 WOW!!! Huge aroma switch here!! GASSY af. Turns out to be my fav for the terpene profile. Not the most vigorous/productive one tho. Gas/sweet/exotic wood Pheno #5 Tropical and hazey Needs more delarfing Definitely more on the sativa side.

she has recovered really well. i think repotting and stopping the fertiliser has helped her. now she is getting green sensation again in small doses. she has gone into bloom. she is currently getting 10 hours of light.

Week 12 — GMO Cookies Served with extra curiosity ? Week 12 from seed marks what we call Week 7 of flower in this 12/12-from-seed run, and at this stage the room is doing exactly what it should: less intervention, more observation, and a whole lot of trust in the process. By now the heavy lifting is done. Structure is built, flowers are formed, resin production is in full swing, and the focus shifts from pushing growth to guiding the finish. That’s why the room still looks familiar on paper — 26°C days, 18°C nights, 60% RH, steady airflow, same rhythm, same calm environment. No dramatic changes, no chasing numbers, no panic-adjusting because a chart says so. Leaf expression remains relaxed, transpiration is steady, and the plants are still telling us the same thing they have all run: conditions are stable, leave us be. That consistency is what got us here. And now we let them finish. ⸻ Less feeding, more finishing This week marks the real transition into the final stretch. The bottles have mostly stepped aside, and the focus now is simple: water, enzymes, patience. At this point the soil still holds more than enough nutrition to carry these plants home. That is one of the biggest advantages of building a living, reusable medium instead of treating soil like an inert substrate. The plant has already been fed. Now the soil gets to do what it was built to do: buffer, break down, recycle, and deliver what remains. So instead of continuing to push feed late into flower, we’ve shifted almost entirely to enzymes. This week the mix is simple: * rainwater * dehumidifier water * Pure Zym * no pH adjustments Landing naturally around 6.8. That is perfectly acceptable here, and more importantly, it is consistent. At this stage we are no longer trying to micromanage every decimal point. We are reading plant response, not chasing bottle charts. The root zone is stable, the soil is active, and the plants are finishing without asking for more. That matters more than forcing a perfect number onto paper. ⸻ Why enzymes matter now This is where enzymes earn their place. Late flower is less about feeding the plant directly and more about helping the soil finish clean. Enzymes work by breaking down dead root matter, leftover organic residue, and unused nutrient material in the substrate. Instead of allowing that material to sit, stall, or accumulate as waste, enzymes help convert it into simpler compounds the soil biology can either recycle or clear out. That matters for three reasons right now: 1. Cleaner root zone The plant is nearing the end of its life cycle. Roots naturally slow, age, and shed. Enzymes help keep that zone cleaner, reducing buildup and preventing the root mass from becoming stagnant. 2. More efficient nutrient recycling There is still food in this soil. Enzymes help unlock what remains, allowing the plant to access residual nutrition already present in the medium instead of continuing to push fresh inputs. 3. Better soil for reuse This matters beyond harvest. Because this soil is being reused, enzymes help start that cleanup process now — breaking down residual organics and preparing the medium to be re-amended instead of discarded. This is not just feeding the end of this run. It is preparing the beginning of the next one in the veggie world outside. ⸻ Drinking less… but still drinking well Water uptake has eased slightly this week, now sitting around 1.5L per plant every 24 hours. That small drop is exactly what we expect here. They are drinking a little less now because the plant is no longer prioritizing rapid structural expansion. Stretch is done. Leaf production has slowed. Vertical growth is over. The plant is no longer spending energy building framework. Now it is ripening. That shift changes demand. Water use naturally tapers as metabolic priorities move away from expansion and toward maturation. Less new biomass is being built, so total uptake softens. But they are still drinking well — and that matters. Because while structural growth has slowed, flower metabolism has not. The plant is still: * moving water * stacking density * swelling calyxes * pushing resin * regulating temperature * transporting stored energy into the flowers That still takes water. So yes, they are drinking less. But 1.5L per day, in late flower, with this amount of biomass and this level of flower production, is still a very healthy sign that the engine is running exactly as it should. ⸻ The room right now This is one of the most rewarding phases of the cycle. The room smells louder. The flowers feel heavier. The frost gets thicker by the day. The color starts to shift. And every plant begins speaking its final language. This is where the run stops being about control and becomes about presence. There is less to do now. But more to notice. This stage is hand-watering, lifting pots, checking weight, scanning leaves, watching posture, tracking fade, peeking into bracts, checking trichomes, noticing who is ahead, who is slower, who is swelling, who is darkening. This is where the work becomes quiet. And this part matters just as much as everything that came before it. ⸻ Bulk, frost, and the final swell This week the flowers are doing what good late flowers should do: they are swelling. Not stretching. Not throwing chaos. Swelling. The buds are putting on that final weight now — denser, tighter, heavier by the day. Calyxes are stacking over calyxes, the flower surface is thickening, and what looked finished a week ago suddenly looks like it still has more to give. That late swell is where so much of the final weight comes from. And GMO is showing exactly why it earned its reputation. The flowers are broad, greasy, and dense. The frost is no longer just visible — it is layered. Trichome coverage has moved past sparkle and into texture. You can see it sitting on the flower surface like sugar pulled too thick. This is where the plant starts looking less like it is flowering and more like it is preserving itself in resin. ⸻ What you are seeing now: pistils, calyxes, and ripening This is the point where flower development becomes easier to read once you know what is changing. Those bright white hairs (pistils) that dominated earlier flower are beginning to darken, curl, and recede. That is normal. Early on, pistils emerge fresh and white as part of active flower development. Their job is simple: reach outward while the flower builds. Now that the flower is mature, many of those pistils have done their job. So they begin to: * oxidize * darken * curl inward * shift from white to orange, amber, or brown That is not decline. That is ripening. At the same time, the calyxes beneath them begin swelling. This is the part many growers miss. As the pistils age and pull inward, the calyxes underneath begin to enlarge and firm up — becoming fuller, rounder, tighter, and more pronounced. That swelling is where density comes from. It is one of the clearest signs the flower is still building real mass even when fresh white hairs begin slowing down. So while the pistils look older, the flower itself is still maturing. That is exactly what we want. ⸻ And then there are the trichomes This is where the real finish happens. Trichomes are not just “frost.” They are the plant’s chemical armor. These resin glands are where cannabinoids, terpenes, and much of the plant’s aromatic complexity are produced and stored. What looks like sparkle is actually the plant concentrating its chemistry onto the flower surface. And late flower is when that chemistry peaks. Right now they are thickening, clouding, and maturing. This is the stage where clear heads begin turning cloudy, volatile terpene content is peaking, and the plant begins shifting from active production into final ripening. That is why this stage matters so much. This is not just visual maturity. This is chemical maturity. ⸻ Special guest in the garden ? This week’s inspection team also included one highly unqualified but deeply committed assistant. A tiny toy fly has been making rounds through the canopy, checking trichome density, inspecting pistil posture, and offering absolutely no useful advice whatsoever. Morale has improved. Yield projections remain unchanged. The inspection reports were biased, but adorable. We’ll allow it. ⸻ Looking ahead to Week 13 Next week will be about watching the finish tighten. Expect: * more visible fade * stronger senescence expression * slower water uptake * deeper aroma * continued calyx swell * more pistil recession * trichomes pushing further cloudy This is where patience matters most. Not every plant will finish on the same day. Not every top will mature at the same speed. And not every signal arrives all at once. Next week is not about deciding harvest. It is about learning how close harvest is becoming. And that is a very different thing. ⸻ Final thoughts Week 12 is one of those weeks that reminds you why the slow parts matter. The feeding. The restraint. The consistency. The observation. The trust. Now it shows back in the flowers. To everyone following along — the longtime growers, the silent lurkers, the curious beginners, the sharp-eyed critics, the day-ones, the new faces, the supporters, the skeptics, the genetics, the breeders, the platform, and everyone spending even a minute here with this run: Thank you. To those who watch closely, cheer loudly, question honestly, and keep showing up week after week — respect. To the OGs who have been here since the first awkward updates and to the new eyes just arriving now: welcome. And to these plants, for doing what they do best with quiet precision and no ego at all— all love. 📡 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.

I feel like the overall cycle length of this is a lot longer than stated. They have been growing for nearly 15 weeks. I believe they could have done with an extra week but we needed the space to add other clones that were ready.

week 11 here with the update video

it seems that the topping has slowed her down a bit but I hope everything goes well day 28 I reduced the frequency with which I fed the nutrients a bit

Esta semana fue solamente de flush 🚿 en esta ocasión decidí usar florakleen para ver con cual obtengo mejor resultado si con este o con flawless finish, lo hice así, primero hice un lavado con pura agua con ph de 6.2 lo hice desde el ultimo día de la semana anterior, fue lavado doble, uno en cuanto se encendio la luz y otro justo antes de apagarse, luego empezando esta semana regué dos dias usando el florakleen y ph de 6.2, el tercer día no regué y al final de ese día le di corte ✂️ y la colgué, actualmente ya la tengo curando, la tuve 10 días secándose con una humedad de entre 50 y 60% para un secado lento.

Hola 🐴 This diary must be doomed 🤣 Auto kabul seems not to flower properly under 24h of light at day 60 . I think its not auto. More likely "early". Overgrowed closet so it's time to move on and give stage to next warrior. Hopefully Auto Kabul is now growing in greener fields 🙏 With lot of hope and trust for next try 🤣 Lets go KANNABIA 🤝

Hello everyone 😎 Week 6 of flower for the Amnesia Zkittlez🍭 Only 1 plant left then finito✔️ Very nice smell super sweet🤤 The buds are super sticky🔥
