😍 shes actually very close to done, i might even harvest her tmr, if not then probably the next day, saw alot of milky with the odd amber today! She is also stankin nice a lovely. She has a little more flower than i expected to be honest, which still isnt very much but i'm pleased for the first outdoor grow. That is if she smokes as nice as she smells. I see a moderate amount of trichs, not like the tent but still nice and sugary. Next post should be the harvest report! I think i'll toss out a dried guess of 18 grams and its gonna be a little fluffy

All the seeds are sprouted they are under humidity domes for the first week im using my ES180 from thegreensunshineco.com All seeds are from Sagseedbank.com under 18/6 light cycle may take it up to 20/4 after they get use to the light this is day 2 of week 1

Frosting and thickening up nicely, no sign of milky trichs yet. Hopefully done in about 2 weeks.

So I did a light defoliation, with a little bit of lollipopping and this girl did not slow down one bit... She is stretching nicely and the inner nodel spacing looks good to me... She's a very healthy, happy plant. And she has a good size to her, so pretty impressed with these dots.. It's only been dots, recharge and a little bit of silica .. very awesome ... @Grow4releaf thank you again, brother.I hope you are doing well.. Did you everyone else. God bless and happy growing

These ladies are ready for flush. They are all super sticky and loaded with trichomes. I can’t wait to harvest and turn into rosin!

Starting week #3 Day 15 We are so happy, she's looking great we can't wait to taste it, they say it's 9 weeks but I think she's going to be ready at 13weeks plus cure and dry process So like 16/17 weeks maybe I don't know we will see at the end of the road, right now she's looking good We plan on to increase nutrients to 7.5ml For her meal we are going to split it Wednesday 3.25 and Sunday 3.25ml Flora nova grow We will keep you posted, any advise please let me know I appreciate it Good vibes Day 16 Gave them. 3.25ml floranova grow mix in 1gallon of water (690ppm) Lets see how they handle it Plan on to give them 3.25ml more on Sunday if they do good :) Day 17 As you can see we take them daily to get sunbaths, daylight, sunlight, since it's the best source of light Day 18 She's getting big and big everyday, soon we gonna have to replace the pot to a bigger one Day 19 We built up a circle fence for better netting and also continue to give them sunbaths early morning Day 20 She's taking all nutrients very well She's growing gorgeous she's so awesome Day 21 Fed them as always do on Sunday but this time 3.25ml or 940ppm. Starting on week #4 We only gonna feed them once a week Readjusting feeding schedule to 8ML (4/4ml grow and bloom) Day 22 Started LST and preparing for transition to bloom, week #4

D33 - 19/02 Haven’t changed the reservoir this week yet. A few burnt tips on Northern Lights #2, will probably go a little lighter on nutes next feed - she’s definitely more sensitive to them than the other ones. Overall great looking girls and nice growth. The #2’s are higher than the #1’s, nodes developing nicely and the scrog is definitely helping with lateral growth as well. — D35 Mixed a new reservoir with roughly 19L, at around 70% strength. pH 6.0 and EC 1.1 Humidity has risen a bit, so I installed the dehumidifier again. Apparently the tip burning has stopped, or at least slowed, which is good. #1’s are at around 25cm height, while #2’s are around 40cm height. — D36 Did another defoliation session as the girls really needed it. Cleaned a lot of the big fan leaves, airflow and light penetration is way better now. A few hours after and they’re super happy again.

This week was a good recovery week, after this previous disaster at the beginning of the week. They took about 3 days to bounce back. I had to defoliate pretty heavily. You can't tell 4 days later that I did. I wanna avoid defoliating too often, as these poor buggers are already stressed. I think in about 3 days I will see if they stop growing in height, when they do... I will defoliate again. All for all, I'm pretty happy that they bounced back so well. I also have upped the EC a touch to 1.5 this week, and I'm only seeing the tiniest hint of tip burn. So I think they are at the max before it starts to really burn them. The rate they are drinking, its a struggle to keep the mix at 1.4.

Grows perfectly and well💚💪

just add more nutrients

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.

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.

07.09.23- 63 день жизни северного сияния в горшке 3 литра . Всего пару дней и будет харвест . Сейчас получает только чистую воду Веерные листья срезаны

Light experimental LST throughout the week. Started getting signs of root rot on 7/3/2023. The res had started to smell like a pond, and the roots were browning heavily. Added 35mL of 3% H2O2 to the reservoir, followed by a double dose (~16mL) of Hydroguard

Amnesia and Cheese starting to create pistils, North Light hasn't started yet

No single use of ph-meter. No kidding. Just 2/4cm of topmax and bioheaven add to autopot tray. What do u think guys?

She's done!!!!!!! Very frosty!! 😍

This is a wonderful week of flowering. This week I had to reduce the dosage of my main flowering nutrient, because I started to give them green sensation. I will increase the dose later on step by step back to normal as I see that the girls are okay with it. I had to increase the light distance again, because some of the leaves started to bleach as the lights were too close. That's it for now, I am hoping to see a nice progress in the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

Día 77 y final para esta Wedding Glue que ha brindado unos frutos hermosos!. Manicura y cosecha para posteriormente secar y curar estas densas y rocosas flores bañadas en brillantes tricomas, fragancias dulces tipo torta cubren todo el ambiente y una pegajosa capa de resina me impide abrir mis tijeras con facilidad, realmente una sabrosa cosecha! Volveré después del curado para dar un informe de cosecha detallado. Buenos Humos! 👽
