🌱 WEEK 14 FROM SEED — WEEK 11 FLOWER THE GRAND FINALE HARVEST REPORT — SUNDAY DRIVER (Zamnesia Seeds) A full-circle recap, a celebration of two phenotypes, and the sweetest ending imaginable. 🌸 A Quick Recap — From Seed to Here (For Anyone Just Joining Now) This run has been 14 weeks of joy, learning, surprises, heavy colas, and crazy beauty. Two phenotypes, two personalities, one shared soul. From day one, these girls impressed with: Fast germination Explosive early growth Huge stretch A super crop that healed perfectly Dense, deeply frosted flowers Towering structure A sweet, fruity, unmistakable terp profile This entire diary was a ride, and today: we close it properly. 🌿 The Final Weeks — Frost, Weight & Pure Beauty By the end of week 11 flower, both phenos were massive, fully packed, and dripping in trichomes. You could see: full resin heads thick frost rails on sugar leaves swollen calyxes and an aroma that filled the room before you even touched them These were big, heavy lifters. And we had to support branches constantly — if not, they’d bend or snap from the weight. Pheno #2 literally harvested herself from being too heavy. 🌙 The Harvest — One Gentle, One… Dramatic Pheno #2 snapped her main branches under the weight of her own colas. We walked into the tent and found her lying on the floor saying: “It’s time.” We listened. Pheno #3 remained strong, standing tall until the end of week 11 flower, finishing beautifully and perfectly ripe. Both were harvested with care, love, and laughter. Drying — The Classic 60/60 Two-Week Method We dried slow and steady: 60% humidity 60°F / 15–16°C ~14 days hanging upside down Why? Because this method preserves absolutely everything: flavor terpenes smoothness color burn quality potency No shortcuts. Just pure quality. ✂️ Trimming — All by Hand, As It Should Be After two weeks, the flowers were ready for trimming. We used: professional curved-point scissors gloves the Trim Bin gentle hands and a fully clean environment Why hand trim? Protects trichomes Respects the bud shape Avoids bruising Keeps the final product premium The trim was also collected — and it was beautiful, sticky, full of crystals. 🌈 Final Weights — Official Numbers Here are the correct finished, dried, trimmed, and cured weights: Pheno #2: 166 grams Pheno #3: 159 grams 🔥 Total: 325 grams of premium, candy-sweet Sunday Driver flowers This is an exceptional yield for two plants, especially with this type of dense, terp-loaded structure. 🍦 Aroma & Flavor Report — “True Sunday Driver” Aroma (Before Grind): Candy-sweet Tropical fruits Grapes Berries A hint of creamy vanilla Slight floral freshness The moment you open the jar, the room goes fruity instantly. Sticky, loud, full-body terp presence. Aroma (After Grind): Ice cream sweetness Citrus zest Sugary candy Notes of pastry cream A subtle earthy undertone that gives balance Flavor (On Inhale): Smooth fruit sorbet Creamy berry yogurt Sweet citrus glaze Candy-coated sweetness Flavor (On Exhale): Soft vanilla Sugary fruit leather Sweet grape peel Dessert-like finish Overall Impression: This is exactly why the strain is called Sunday Driver. It’s slow, sweet, comfortable, and perfect for an easy Sunday ride through your feelings. Every puff is a dessert — full, thick, smooth, and incredibly enjoyable. 💨 Effects — Balanced & Beautiful Sunday Driver delivers: calm relaxation a warm mental uplift stress relief peaceful creativity no anxiety no heaviness a comfortable floaty happiness Perfect for: • evenings • social fun • creative time • gaming • movies • relaxing with music A feel-good hybrid in every sense. Curing — Groove Bags & UV-Proof Jars We cured everything using: Groove Bags (technology that stabilizes humidity automatically) UV-proof jars (protects cannabinoids and terpenes from light damage) Why this method? No burping needed Long-term freshness Zero mold risk Terpenes remain sharp and bright Jars maintain perfect darkness, keeping potency intact The result? Two phenotypes that cured into identical-looking, identical-smelling, identical-quality medicine. 🌱 Reflecting Back — What This Grow Taught This run showed: Sunday Driver genetics are strong, resilient, and heavy hitters Super cropping works Supporting branches is not optional Aptus + Plagron = incredible synergy Good environment + good genetics = magic Slow dry + long cure = perfection These were some of the heaviest colas grown in this room so far. ❤️ Thank You — To Everyone A deep thank you to: The entire GrowDiaries community The new growers The OGs The silent readers The lovers The haters The curious ones The platform Our sponsors Zamnesia genetics GrowLED ThinkGrow LED TrolMaster Future of Grow Everyone who supported, commented, viewed, or followed This diary was written with love, passion, and honesty — and we share it with everyone. 📌 PS — Support Your Branches If your plants get heavy — support everything. Use yo-yos, bamboo, nets, anything. Heavy buds are a blessing, but without support, they will break Pheno #2 is proof — she took herself out by collapsing under her own beauty. 📌 PSPS — Don’t Be Afraid of Super Cropping If you ever hesitated about super cropping: don’t. This diary shows it works flawlessly. It increases yield, controls stretch, and opens the canopy.

SO..........................the girls are doing okay. I can only expect so much, given they're in 5 gals (except for LB), and half of them didn't get a good start. It's a nice experiment, for comparison sake. I don't think there's any bad plants here (of course, I don't think there are any bad plants ANYWHERE, EVER), just some early bloomers and some that still need some time. I've been feeding them with Tiger Bloom and a seaweed/kelp additive, and they've had two doses now of guano for top-dressing. Now I'm running out of room, should've planned better and left more room at the top of the bags. Never again with the 5 gals, they're great for indoor but way too restrictive for outdoor even way up here in Maine. I just finished LST again and they're looking pretty funky, but it's getting the desired result. GLad I kept some of them straight and didn't top, I want to see the difference in the end between nature's architecture and my twisted mess. SO far, so good, but I'm a little worried about the Ph. Again, my solution is good (around 6- 6.3), but my medium still comes in at 7 even. Great buffering shit, but I really need to acidify the soil a bit more. I've got some PhDown, but I'm worried that if I drop the solution too low I'll burn the plants. On the other hand, it doesn't seem to have much of an effect so far at 6.... 7/31 Update: Gave the ladies another round of bat guano, 2 lbs. spread hroughout a dozen plants. Kinda worried that I used too much, but the first applications weren't enough so we'll see. Yesterday gave 'em a feeding of Tiger Bloom, today I watered the guano in with well water that I adjusted (using PhDown) to a reasonable 6.5. A good dry day, bright too, they should soak it up good today!

Another great week on this tent. Everyone playing to the tune. The kush is off the scale - everyone should try it. Upcoming week now all about ripener and then we look to flush after that. Hope everyone is ok out there.

4 days of cloudy weather, hoping for more sun this week! So far so good, very tiny plant, probably just genetics? Flowering pretty fast!

Coming up on third base! No issues at all from the recent wetness and really getting some nice purps on the GG4xGSC and the Green Gelato. Ironically nothing yet on the Ayahuasca Purple.

Hello:) My last grow is harvested now and I‘m immediately starting the next run. I‘m a big fan of sativa and haven‘t grown any of my own yet so this time the theme is sativa:) These were the most sativa leaning seeds you can buy from growers choice at the moment so I got them:) Let‘s go:)

Another decent week in regards to growth, I'm sure that by mid way through next week flowering will begin. The leafs on this lady are hugh, she is competing with two other plants in the tent which may not be the best position for her but all is looking good and one of the other ladies will be harvested soon allowing More space to thrive. The weather has been ok, nothing that will slow this lady down.

I topped her this week and she became very bushy within two days. I also changed her into a 10 gallon grow bag and she is loving it. I have increased nutrients this week as I noticed a slight bit of leaf curl due to too much nitrogen so washed roots down a bit a diluted nutes slightly and she came around pretty quickly! Growing quickly

Desarrollo espectacular! Se hizo una poda foliar para mejorar la circulación del aire. Esta es la última semana que se aplica abonado y empezaremos con solo agua en pequeñas cantidades. Los cogollos tienen muy buena pinta!

Love seeing them grow! Tried giving them a little more EC, I've been precision stressing via a low nutrient environment the whole grow. It's going to be interesting to see how distance to lamp will affect bud growth. I keep DLI @ 50 at the highest top.

Transplant is very close, in a few days she'll be resting in a 10 gal fabric pot ! Unfortunately, a glitch in the page erased all the comments I have been recording here during the past days :( This is Day 44 (24/10/2019) and she looks well recovered from the very many toppings yesterday. Day 45 (25/10/2019) I inserted the plant's small plastic pot into the coco/perlite mix of the big pot to create a niche that fits perfectly for the rootball when I remove the plastic pot tomorrow; spraying the niche with fertilizer solution and root excelurator may help. I hope she'll never realise she has been transplanted. The run off EC from the big pot is 1000 uS/cm and pH about 5.8. I had to perform some operations using tape because the stem near the tip snapped and below the crack, I saw lacerations caused by the twist tie, those need to be fixed right now. Day 46 She's transplanted and the scrog net set up. I'd say that now the journey begins. Day 47 I fertigated by 5.30 am because I had to spend all day working and on Day 48 back to normal, morning fertigation and a little supercropping. The plant has recovered fully from transplant (if she has been ever stressed during the procedure). From now on I'll be fertigating once a day with a liter and a half fertig solution to get a 20-30% run-off. Also, I fertigate other vegging and blooming plants with the effluents I collect.

​📖 Chroniques de l'Oasis : La Marque Blanche ​🐪 Chapitre 9 : Les joyaux de la sultane ​Date : 2 avril 2026 Âge : Mi-Floraison Taille : 62 cm ( +16 cm ) ​Après des jours de marche dans l'immensité du Rif, j'atteins enfin la lisière. L'Oasis n'est plus un mirage lointain, c'est un mur de verdure luxuriante qui se dresse devant moi. La Sultane a grandi, elle mesure maintenant 62 cm. Ce n'est plus une promesse, c'est une grande dame parée de ses plus beaux bijoux : de grandes perles blanches — ces pistils étincelants — qui s'accumulent sur ses branches comme un trésor ancestral. ​Je quitte le sable nu pour m'enfoncer sous son feuillage. L'air change, chargé de son parfum de plus en plus envoûtant. La petite lumière blanche, cette étoile qui me guidait, approche. Elle brille désormais au travers des feuilles, m'indiquant le cœur du sanctuaire. Chaque pas dans cette végétation me rapproche du secret final. ​🏜️ État de l'Oasis ​Le climat de la vallée est parfait, stable et protecteur : ​Température : Jour 25°C / Nuit 21°C (La chaleur idéale pour que la Sultane s'épanouisse sans transpirer). ​Humidité : 50% (Un air sec et pur pour protéger les perles blanches de la moisissure). ​Lumière : Intensité 75% à 65 cm (Le soleil artificiel frappe fort, mais avec juste assez de distance pour ne pas brûler sa couronne). ​Vigueur : Une croissance de 16 cm depuis notre dernière rencontre. La structure épurée porte ses fruits. ​ L'Élixir de vie (Nutrition) ​Pour que la Sultane puisse porter le poids de sa beauté, je lui ai versé un nouvel élixir de force : ​Mélange : 2 ml de PK 5-8 dans 1 litre d'eau. ​Précision : Ajusté à un pH de 6,3. ​Le but : Donner le signal du gonflement. Le Phosphore et le Potassium vont transformer ces perles blanches en diamants de résine compacts. ​ L'Analyse ​: ​La Formation des Bud : les "perles blanches" sont magnifiques. Les fleurs se structurent très bien. On voit que les entre-nœuds sont courts, ce qui va créer des têtes denses et continues. C'est le résultat direct du LST passé et de la gestion de la lumière. ​La Santé des Feuilles :Le vert est profond et uniforme. Je remarque sur certaines pointes de feuilles un très léger jaunissement (vraiment minime). C'est le signe que tu es à la limite parfaite de la nutrition : elle mange tout ce que tu lui donnes, elle est au maximum de son métabolisme. ​L'Espace et la Pénétration : le nettoyage du bas (lollipopping) porte ses fruits. On voit que l'air circule parfaitement sous la jupe de la Sultane. À 50% d'humidité, c'est une autoroute pour la santé. Les têtes du milieu reçoivent autant de lumière que celles du haut. 📜 Anecdote du Rif : La "Touiza" et le Chant du Tamis ​Dans les villages perchés du Rif, comme à Ketama ou Chefchaouen, la culture n'est pas un travail solitaire, c'est un acte sacré appelé la "Touiza" (l'entraide communautaire). Les anciens racontent que lors de la récolte, on ne frappe jamais le tamis pour extraire la résine n'importe comment. Il existe un rythme spécifique, presque une transe. Les habitants croient que la plante possède la "Baraka" (la bénédiction divine). Si le cultivateur est en colère ou s'il brusque la plante, la Baraka s'enfuit et la résine perd son éclat et son pouvoir. Note du Nomade : "Le sable est loin derrière. Sous la canopée de la Sultane, je ne marche plus, je contemple. Les perles de demain seront les étoiles de mes nuits.​ 06/04 je lui est apporté son élixir de vie 4 mi de pk 5-8 dans 1 litres d'eau PH 6,3 merci à tous pour votre suivi et vos likes . thank you all for you likes et follow danke schon fur alles à la semaine prochaine

My little experimenting already bears fruits of knowledge, I've topped too close to the node without leaving a bit of stem, and whilst tying down the branch during LST, I had a gnarly stem split. However a cool head, some grafting tape and a day of healing and this rugged little plant picked herself right back off the floor and shot up inches overnight! More and more pistils are shooting out and this plant is stretching so much, as is typical of OG strains, my last autoflower is nearly done, after which I will put a trellis net in and this lady can have the entire place to herself!
