Einfach schรถn zuszusehen, wie die Sex Bud an Masse zulegt. Die Farben รผberaschen jedes Mal wenn man das Zelt รถffnet. Der Geruch wird langsam merklich stรคrker. Wir haben die ersten braunen Trichome entdeckt. D.h. wir gehen in den Endspurt. ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

Hollodrio! Sie geht in Blรผte mit der Schnapszahlhรถhe von 222 cm! Zwar noch etwas zaghaft, aber fรผr mich ist das Blรผte! Der Gewittersturm hat einen einzigen Zweig abgeknickt, der nun auf der Terassenbrรผstung liegt und weiterversorgt wird. Diese Lady sollte "Peitschende Weide" genannt werden. Trotzdem habe ich sie am Tag nach dem Gewitter mit frischen Haselnusssstangen gesichert und verschnรผrt. Dadurch ist sie zwar kompakter geworden aber sie wird sowieso noch in den nรคchsten Wochen einiges an Blรคttern und kurzen Trieben verlierren. Endlich ist der Blรผtebeginn erreicht, jetzt sollte sie schnell an Blรผten zulegen, sonst wird es eng mit dem Erntefenster vor Schimmel! Duft ist noch keiner vorhanden, durstig ist sie weiterhin, gedรผngt wird noch weitere zwei Wochen ausgiebig, dann sehe ich weiter. Bis dahin ist die Seven Freeze geerntet und sie bekommt mehr Platz. Vuielen Dank fรผr euren Besuch, ich wรผnsche eine erfolgreiche Grow-Woche!

26/09/22 - W09 - D57-63 - I Increased EC to 1,3 and pushed down pH to 6 (advanced nutrients are not so ph perfect..). I'm still making LST, because some buds have flower too far and I'm trying to keep the buds as lower as possible.

No training, just hope for them to deliver. Day 57 . All is good, small doubts about FD3 but she has to make it or bin it ... Future looks brighter, other girls form some buds and 50 g is looking achievable at least on couple of them ;) Future will show ;)) N went down as feed chart, still no huge hopes from them.... Some leaves look hungry, couple redish stemps with mini Mag def on FD and thats all for now.... Day 58 Morning. Girls starts to love it 4 sure. Droped down temp by 2 degrees from 28 to 26, they liked it even more. Hope it will stop pistils going amber in begining of flower ... In the midle of the day all will get molasses and cal mag, leaves a bit too bright, hope molasses will boost bacterias and last bits of N will be used. Increasing level of Top-Max aswel. So feed looked like : Heavy feed Water with silica Water Water with molasses and CalMag At the end of the week they will get heavy feed again. Day 58 Evening. New attack system ;)) instead of 2-3-3 , girls regrouped into two heavy rows and now go like 2-2-2-2 ;)))) Girls are drinking really fast, still get only around 1.5 liters every second day. For auto i quess its ok. In couple hours afer feed they pray, so its a good sign always ... Day 60. Heavy feed day, they started to bulk up everyday, really nice to see them everytime. Day 61. They are bulking up. Thats all i have to say and i really really like it ;))) Day 63. End of week. Everything looks fine, just i really would want to defoliate them a bit, but dont want to stress at the same time. They look too sensi for me. All 3 FastDiesels started to show Mag def even on stemps, gave stronger cal mag water mix just for them. They need it often and a lot. Happy growing !

Diese Woche habe ich mir etwas einfallen lassen damit ich nicht nur Photos hinterlasse sondern auch etwas รผber mein System erklรคren kann. Letzte Woche Sonntag habe ich einige Plants getoppt und sie schauen soweit ganz gut aus. Ich hatte leider letzte Woche he ein Problem mit dem Root Juice von Advanced Nutrients die Nรคhrlรถsung in den Tanks ist gekippt. Ich habe es erst am zweiten Tag gesehen und habe sofort alles geputzt und Wasser gewรคchselt. Danach wieder alles eingestellt und lรคuft. Ph: 5.7 Ec : 0.9 Ich habe auch jeweils 20g Mineral Magic in die Nรคhrlรถsung hinzugefรผgt und 1 Teelรถffel davon um den Stil der Plants gemacht. In meinen 2 Videos findet ihr mehr dazu. Happy Growing :)

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. And hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. This is my second feminised cultivation ever. First, I'm just going to say something about my grow room. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of โ€‹โ€‹3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps for bloom. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This new strain combines two well-received parents, Juanita la Lagrimosa (Spanish for "Juanita the Tearful") and Royal Highness, which are themselves genetic hybrids of other precursor strains: Juanita the Tearful from Queen Mother and a Mexican-Afghan blend; Royal Highness from Dance Hall and Respect 13. On and on the strains date back in agricultural time, each new variety with its own unique smell, taste, color, high and medical benefit. However, in the past decade, a goal of all this tinkering has been what some producers are starting to call โ€œRoyal Respectโ€ with the soul of marijuana's benefits going toward both body and mind. Painkiller XL is notable for its near-equal representation of 6 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 7 percent cannabidiol (CBD), achieved by a seed that's 70 percent sativa and 30 percent indica. While the sativa variety of cannabis is widely known for producing more of a mental, cerebral high, and indica has a reputation for contributing more toward its physical high, other factors are more important to consider: THC is the compound given most of the credit for that head high, with CBD takes the credit for marijuana's many proven medicinal benefits, which range vastly from relieving pain, anxiety, migraines, fibromyalgia and even mad cow disease to easing many of the most deleterious symptoms of AIDS, diabetes, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease. These are just a handful of the dozens of ailments marijuana is being prescribed to combat by doctors across the globe and in more than a dozen U.S. states. Cooperatives at medical marijuana dispensaries have been at the forefront of providing CBD-rich cannabis buds and oils for their patients, who undoubtedly appreciate being able to purchase the strain best-suited to ease their particular ailments. This new strain joins others rich in both CBD and THC like Euphoria, Royal Medic, Medical Mass and Danceworld that seek to actually not necessarily downplay cannabis' psychoactive effects in favor of optimizing its healing role, but instead equalize the two. According to the California-based Steep Hill Cannabis Analysis Laboratory, this equalization brings to the cannabis user not just the physically healing aspects, but also the spiritually and psychologically healing benefits as well. There are other strains with very little THC and more CBD than Painkiller XL , but rare are such splendid balances. Producers of this strain say it produces a considerable amount of pain relief, with a mild, relieving mental euphoria. With a flowering time of eight weeks, the Painkiller XL seed can produce 525 to 575 grams per plant indoors. Inside, the dried yield is 400 to 450 grams per plant. Inside, the plants average in height at about 31.5 inche (80 cm); outside, the average height is about 53 inches (135 cm), with harvest time at the end of September. THC: 9% CBD: 9% Yield Indoor: 500-550gr m2 Yield Outdoor: 500-550 grams per plant dried Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 120 - 150 cm Flowering time: 8 weeks Harvest month: Late September Genetic background: Juanita la Lagrimosa x Royal Highness Type Sativa: 75%; Indica: 25% Effect: Physical, clear high. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-10-04. New week. I have started giving light nutes and fimed the tops of the plants. No lst and defoliation yet. Added picks and video. Girl N1 is 14 cm high, Nr 2 is 7 cm high. They are still in 1 liter pots and i wait another week to transplant them to big pots.

๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒฟ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 14 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno A The Little Unicorn Has Left the Tentโ€ฆ But Her Story Is Far From Over! ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธโœ‚๏ธ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And today, my friendsโ€ฆ We have a different kind of update. Because our beautiful Frosted Guava Pheno A has officially left the tent. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒฟ That's right. Our little unicorn. Our beautiful foxtailing freak. Our girl who spent week after week doing things her own way, building her unusual flowering structures, surprising us with her development, and reminding us that genetics don't always follow the script we expect. She finally told me: "Docโ€ฆ I think we've done enough in here." ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ And who am I to argue with a queen? So I listened. We took the final photographs inside the tent. We gave her some time in the studio for more photographs and photo stacking. We documented her beautiful flowering structures from different angles. We enjoyed a little moment with our girl. And thenโ€ฆ It was time. โœ‚๏ธ๐ŸŒธ Frosted Guava Pheno A was harvested. But before anyone asksโ€ฆ Yes, I know we're posting a harvest-day update under a flowering week. ๐Ÿ˜‚ And yes, there's a reason for that! We're going to explain everything, because this isn't the final harvest report. We still have drying to document, and there's more to come after that. Today is about the last day of our little unicorn in the tent, her final photographs, the studio session, the photo stacks, the harvest process, and the beginning of her drying journey. So let's give her the spotlight she deserves. Because this girl has earned it. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ข A QUICK APOLOGY โ€“ WHY IS HARVEST DAY IN A FLOWERING WEEK? Before we get into the beautiful photographs, let's explain something for anyone wondering why we're documenting harvest day in a flowering-week update. GrowDiaries has a limit of 30 photos per update. And when you're documenting an entire harvest, trimming, drying, and eventually the final report, thirty photographs can disappear very quickly. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ Especially when you're someone like me who enjoys documenting everything! We have photographs from inside the tent. We have photographs in the studio. We have photo stacks. We have different views of the plant. We have details of the flowers. We have the harvest itself. And we still have the drying process to document. So, rather than trying to squeeze the entire story into one update and leaving important parts out, we're spreading the journey across the available diary updates. That's why we're using this flowering week to document the final day in the tent and the beginning of the harvest story. Please consider this the first part of her harvest journey. We'll continue with the drying process and the remaining details in the next chapter or chapters, depending on how much material we have to share. And eventually, we'll bring everything together in the final report. This isn't us pretending she's still flowering. ๐Ÿ˜‚ It's simply the most practical way to document her journey properly within the platform's limits. We want to show you the story, not just the final photograph. Thank you for understanding, my friends! ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿฆ„ A QUICK RECAP โ€“ FROM SEED TO STUDIO Let's take a moment to remember how we got here. Frosted Guava Auto was grown as part of the 8ร—8 Adventure, where multiple plants share the same general environment while expressing their own individual genetic characteristics. And this girl? She certainly gave us something different to follow. From the beginning, she developed her own personality. We watched her grow. We watched her flowering structures develop. We watched those unusual foxtailing formations become increasingly noticeable. And week after week, she continued doing her own thing. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒธ She didn't need to look exactly like her sister. She didn't need to behave like the other plants. She didn't need to follow somebody else's rhythm. She simply needed to be Frosted Guava Pheno A. And that's precisely what she did. One of my favourite things about following a plant from seed is that you gradually stop thinking about her as just a name on a label. You start recognizing her. You know her structure. You remember the way she developed. You notice her little differences. And eventually, when you walk into the room, you can spot her without even needing to look at the label. That's when a phenotype becomes a character in the story. And our little unicorn? She's been one of those characters throughout this adventure. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ THE LAST DAY INSIDE THE 8ร—8 Before taking her out, we spent some time documenting her final moments inside the tent. These photographs are important to me because they capture the plant exactly where she completed her flowering journey. No studio background. No special photographic arrangement. Just Frosted Guava, standing in the environment where we've watched her develop. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ“ธ The room has been home to all these different personalities. Some plants have been faster. Some have been slower. Some have developed unusual structures. Some have surprised us with their size. And some have made us stop and look a little closer. Frosted Guava belongs firmly in that last category. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆ„ Those flowering structures have always made her interesting to photograph, and I wanted to make sure we had a proper record of her final day in the tent before moving on to the next stage. Because once she's harvested, that particular view is gone. The plant changes. The environment changes. The next chapter begins. So we take our photographs, appreciate the journey, and make sure the story is documented. And thenโ€ฆ We take our girl to the studio. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ STUDIO TIME โ€“ THE LITTLE UNICORN GETS HER MOMENT Once Frosted Guava left the tent, we took her to the studio. And this is where I get to enjoy another part of growing that I absolutely love. Photography. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿฆ„ I don't only want to remember how a plant looked from across the room. I want to look at the details. The shape of the flowers. The structure of the main cola. The way the individual flowering sections developed. The little differences between one part of the plant and another. And that's why I spend so much time photographing these girls. It's not simply about taking one beautiful picture. It's about documenting the plant from different perspectives. A wider photograph tells one story. A closer photograph tells another. And a carefully made photo stack can reveal details that are difficult to appreciate in a single photograph. Frosted Guava gave us plenty to work with. Her unusual structures make her especially interesting to photograph, and the studio allowed us to give her the attention she deserved before moving on to the harvest itself. ๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ“ธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฌ PHOTO STACKING โ€“ PATIENCE, LIGHTS & A LOT OF PHOTOGRAPHS Let's talk about photo stacking for a moment. Because I know that when people see a finished stacked photograph, it can look like something that happens with the click of a button. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Wellโ€ฆ Not quite! Photo stacking is a process in which multiple photographs of the same subject, captured at slightly different focus distances, are combined to produce a final image with greater apparent depth of field. In simple terms, the camera captures different parts of the subject in focus, and the software combines those focused areas into one image. The result can reveal a remarkable amount of detail. But getting there takes time. It takes patience. It takes careful positioning. And it takes lighting that works for the subject. For these photographs, I use several SmallRig LED lights in the studio to shape the light the way I want it. I adjust the lighting to bring out the texture, colours, and details without losing the character of the flower. The position of the lights matters. The angle matters. The focus matters. And the individual photographs need to work together. Some of the stacks we're sharing from this adventure contain hundreds of photographs. With Frosted Guava, we're showing stacks made from 78, 84, 105, 108, 111, 147, and 206 photographs. And that's only part of the story! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ”ฌ Each stack has its own purpose. Sometimes I want to show the main cola. Sometimes I want to capture a smaller flower. Sometimes I want to explore an interesting section of the plant. And sometimes I'm simply curious to see how much detail I can bring out of a particular subject. I love this process. It's another way of appreciating the plant beyond the grow room. Growing gives us the subject. Photography gives us another way to explore it. And the more I do it, the more I enjoy it. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ THE STACKS ARE PART OF THE STORY You'll see several different kinds of photographs in this update. Some show Frosted Guava while she was still in the tent. Others show her in the studio. Some are wider views of the plant and her flowering structures. Others are closer photographs of individual flowers. And then we have the stacked images. Each one documents a different part of the journey. One of the fun stacks includes a trimming scene with a flower in the trim bin, scissors, and a lighter. That particular stack contains 78 photographs. It's not the biggest stack in the collection, but I enjoyed making it because it captures a little moment around the harvest process. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธโœ‚๏ธ And that's something I like about photography. Not every photograph needs to be a technical masterpiece. Some are experiments. Some are made to learn something. Some are simply fun. And sometimes the smaller projects are the ones that make you smile the most. We also included a video showing part of the photo-stacking process, because I wanted to give everyone an idea of what actually happens behind the final image. It's not instant magic. It's a series of photographs, careful setup, lighting, focus, and processing. And yesโ€ฆ A fair amount of patience! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒธ HARVEST TIME โ€“ OUR LITTLE UNICORN LEAVES THE STAGE After the photographs, it was time to move on. Frosted Guava had completed her flowering journey, and I decided it was time to harvest her. We took our final moments in the studio, documented the process, and then chopped the plant down. โœ‚๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ It's always a strange moment. On one hand, it's exciting because you get to see the result of everything you've followed throughout the grow. On the other hand, you've spent weeks watching this plant develop. You've seen the changes. You've photographed the flowers. You've made observations. You've given her a name. And now, suddenly, the plant you recognize from the tent is entering a completely different stage. The flowering chapter is finished. The post-harvest chapter begins. And our little unicorn is no longer standing in the room with the others. She's moving on to the next part of her journey. ๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœ‚๏ธ A LITTLE TRIMMING โ€“ BUT NOT A FULL WET TRIM Once the plant was harvested, I broke her down and removed the fan leaves and other leaves I didn't want to keep around the flowers. We also did some initial trimming. But I want to make one thing clear. I'm not really calling this a full wet trim. It's more of a partial initial trim before drying. The idea was to remove the leaves we didn't need while preparing the flowers for the next stage, without trying to complete every part of the final trimming process immediately. Most of the material went onto the drying rack. However, I also kept some colas intact so we can enjoy the experience of seeing a larger cola after drying. Because let's be honestโ€ฆ Sometimes you just want to see that big, beautiful cola sitting there after the drying process. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ‘‘ We don't have to turn every part of the harvest into the same shape or presentation. Different pieces can be handled differently depending on what we want to document and enjoy later. For this update, the important thing is that Frosted Guava has been harvested, the initial breakdown is complete, and most of her flowers are now resting on the drying rack. The rest of the process is still ahead of us. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ THE DRYING JOURNEY BEGINS And nowโ€ฆ We wait. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒฟ Frosted Guava is no longer growing under the lights. She's no longer sharing the tent with the other plants. She's now in the drying stage, in a separate space away from the flowering room, where the next part of her journey will take place. Our current plan is to keep the drying environment around 20โ€“21ยฐC. For the initial period, we're aiming for relative humidity around 45%, then bringing it up towards the 60% range and keeping the conditions as stable as we reasonably can. These are our intended conditions, not a guarantee that every reading will remain identical throughout the process. Drying is influenced by several things, including the environment, the amount and arrangement of plant material, airflow, and how the flowers lose moisture over time. And that's why I don't want to promise an exact number of days. A typical drying period can fall somewhere around one to two weeks, but the actual duration can vary. We'll monitor the process and document what happens rather than deciding in advance that every plant must be ready on a particular day. The goal now is to let Frosted Guava rest while we keep an eye on the drying process. ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐ŸŒธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โณ HOW LONG WILL SHE TAKE? That's the question, isn't it? ๐Ÿ˜‚ And the honest answer isโ€ฆ We'll see. One week? Possibly. Two weeks? Also possible. The exact timing depends on how the flowers dry under the conditions we maintain. I don't want to make a promise today and then pretend the plant has to follow it. The drying process deserves patience just as much as the flowering process did. We'll continue monitoring the environment and the flowers, and we'll share more information in the next update. For now, Frosted Guava has started her drying journey. She's resting. We're observing. And the next chapter will come when we have something meaningful to report. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ SAME 8ร—8 ADVENTURE โ€“ ONE MORE GIRL MOVES ON There's something worth remembering here. Frosted Guava was part of a room full of different plants, all sharing the same general growing environment. But she has now completed her flowering journey and moved into the next stage. The rest of the room is still going. The other girls are continuing their own stories, each at her own pace. And that's one of the reasons we document these plants individually. They don't all finish at the same time. They don't all develop in the same way. And they don't all have the same personality. Frosted Guava was our little unicorn. She gave us her unusual flowering structures, her own rhythm, and plenty of beautiful details to photograph. Now she has left the tent, and the rest of the adventure continues around her. Same project. Same room for the plants still flowering. Different stages. Different stories. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฌ WHY I LOVE DOCUMENTING THE PROCESS For me, this is about more than showing the final result. I enjoy documenting the entire journey. The early growth. The flowering stages. The changes in structure. The unusual characteristics. The photographs. The harvest. The drying. And eventually, the final report. Each stage gives us something different to learn from. And because I'm also interested in photography, I enjoy documenting details that might otherwise be overlooked. That's why we have the studio photographs. That's why we have the stacks. That's why we show a little of the process behind the images. I want people to see more than the finished photograph. I want them to understand the time, patience, and curiosity that went into making it. The same applies to the grow diary itself. A harvest is not the end of the story. It's the beginning of another stage. And Frosted Guava still has more chapters to come. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿฆ„ THE LITTLE UNICORN HAS EARNED HER NAME Looking back at this girl's journey, I think the nickname fits her perfectly. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆ„ She's been unusual. She's been interesting. She's given us those beautiful foxtailing structures. And she has kept me curious throughout the flowering process. I never wanted her to look exactly like another plant. I wanted to see what this particular phenotype would do. And she showed us. That's the beauty of following individual plants. You get to know their characteristics, document their differences, and appreciate each one for what she actually is. Frosted Guava Pheno A doesn't need to be another plant. She has her own story. And now, even though she's left the tent, that story continues. The next part will be about drying, and after that we'll have more to share. So don't go anywhere, little unicorn fans! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒธ We're not finished yet. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT? The flowering chapter is complete for Frosted Guava Pheno A. But the overall journey isn't finished. Next, we'll continue documenting the drying process and see how long she takes under the conditions we're maintaining. We'll share more details as the process progresses. And eventually, we'll bring together the remaining observations in her final report. That means more photographs, more information, and another opportunity to look back at the entire journey. For now, she's resting. The rest of the room is still flowering. And I'm already looking forward to the next chapter. ๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’š โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€“ THE LITTLE UNICORN HAS LEFT THE TENT Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia. Pheno A. Harvest day. ๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒธโœ‚๏ธ What a beautiful journey this girl has given us. She started as a seed. She grew into her own personality. She developed those unusual foxtailing structures. She kept surprising us. And now, she's completed her flowering journey and moved on to drying. We've documented her last day inside the tent. We've taken her to the studio. We've photographed her from different angles. We've created several photo stacks. We've shared a little of the process behind the photographs. We've harvested her. We've removed the leaves we didn't want to keep. We've placed most of the flowers on the drying rack. And we've kept a few beautiful colas intact so we can appreciate them after drying. But we're not calling this the final report. There's still more to come. The drying process is underway, and we'll document that journey in the next update or updates, depending on what we have to share. The rest of the room is still going, and the 8ร—8 Adventure continues. So, little unicornโ€ฆ Thank you for the show. Thank you for the beautiful photographs. Thank you for the strange and wonderful flowers. Thank you for keeping me curious. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿ’š You have left the tent, but you haven't left the story. We'll keep following your journey through drying and beyond. And when the time comes, we'll bring everything together in the final report. Until thenโ€ฆ Rest well, little unicorn. Your next chapter has begun. ๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒธโœจ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU As always, a massive thank you to everyone following the 8ร—8 Adventure. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. And thank you for understanding why this harvest-day update appears under a flowering week. The platform's photo limit means we need to divide the material into manageable updates, and I would rather share the full story across several chapters than leave important parts undocumented. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Frosted Guava genetics and for giving us this beautiful little unicorn to follow. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the growing-media and nutritional side of this adventure. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore the expanded lighting setup in the 8ร—8. ๐Ÿ’กโ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ Thank you to Lumiflora for helping illuminate the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping us monitor and manage the environment behind the scenes. And thank you to everyone who follows these diaries, comments, asks questions, shares experiences, and enjoys the journey with us. Every bit of support means a lot. ๐Ÿ’š ๐ŸŒฟ COME JOIN OUR COMMUNITY! If you're looking for a place to talk, learn, share experiences, ask questions, or simply hang out with fellow plant enthusiasts, you're more than welcome to join us on Discord. ๐Ÿ’š DogDoctorOfficial Community: https://discord.gg/dogdoctorofficial The community keeps growing, and we're building something I genuinely love being part of. We have conversations, community discount codes, competitions, prizes, giveaways, and plenty of opportunities to share experiences with people who enjoy this plant as much as we do. But the most important part isn't the discounts or the prizes. It's the people. It's the conversations. It's the friendships. It's the feeling that you can come in, say hello, ask a question, share something you've learned, or simply listen. There's no experience level required. You don't have to be an expert. You don't have to know every technical term. You don't even have to speak all the time. Everybody is welcome, and nobody needs to prove themselves before joining the conversation. We want a community where people can learn from each other, enjoy the subject, and feel comfortable being part of the group. For me, it's becoming something that feels like family. And we'd love to have you with us. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿค Growers Love, my friends. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ See you in the next chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventureโ€ฆ where one little unicorn has left the tent, the rest of the room continues its journey, the studio lights are finally cooling down, and DogDoctor is already looking forward to the next set of photographs. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿฆ„ The harvest is done. The drying journey has begun. And the story continues. Let her shine. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿฆ„๐ŸŒธ

Day 46 of Flower, 93 since germination. Starting to check the trichomes with my new wifi microscope. Looks like Lemon Extract has a scattering of amber trichome heads, but only in bud nearest the light. All other look milky and glassy. I'm thinking Lemon Extract might harvest in one week. The others, maybe two weeks. Gave the ladies their last feeding today. Just PH balanced water from here til harvest.

Getting close! Few weeks out but really starting to fatten up and pack on some weight. Trichromes still really clear. The smell is amazing and the colors are beautiful. Really excited to see what last few weeks bring! ๐Ÿป

Semana terminou com mais uma poda e defoliaรงรฃo, feito preventiva. Dia de aproveitar e guardar alguns clones. Uma flor de Industrial Plant x Girl Scout Cookies F2 que fiz em 2014, sementes germinam muito bem. ร“tima flor com perfil aromรกtico old school, Kush, bem terroso e com nota de coca cola. Leve picancia e nada doce.
