Week 2 · VEG We are now officially in Week 2 of VEG for the LSD girls. Growth is steady and healthy, leaning more toward controlled development rather than explosive speed — exactly what we want at this stage. This is one of those interesting cases where one sister received ~15 days of VEG, while the others are running 12/12 from seed, giving us a clear visual comparison under identical conditions. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Development & Observations • 15-day VEG sister • Already working on her first proper pair of true leaves • Leaf definition is exceptional • Very pronounced leaf outline and corner detailing • Strong, healthy green coloration • Compact, balanced structure so far • 12/12 sisters • Currently on their second pair of true leaves • First small, unshaped leaves are present • Followed by the two longer, well-defined leaves • New smaller leaves are now emerging (1–2 coming in) • Even the smallest plants show remarkable detail and symmetry Across all plants, leaf texture and definition really stand out — LSD is already showing her genetic character early. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment (Same as the rest of the room) • Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: ~75% RH • Light Schedule: • Mixed approach • One plant with extended VEG • Others running 12/12 from seed ⸻ 💡 Light Intensity (PPFD) • Current PPFD: ~500–600 PPFD • This level is being maintained intentionally to: • Support healthy leaf development • Avoid stress on the younger 12/12 plants • Gradually prepare all plants for higher intensity later on This PPFD aligns with the progression board and keeps everything consistent across the documented runs. ⸻ 💧 Watering & Feeding Nutrient Line (Plagron): • Terra Grow • Power Roots • Pure Zym • Sugar Royal • Vita Race Solution Details: • pH: ~6.0 • EC / TDS: ~1.0 EC Same recipe, same logic, same controlled approach — consistency is the key here. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect • Continued leaf expansion and increased definition • The 15-day VEG sister will likely start to outpace structurally • 12/12 plants should keep stacking nodes slowly but steadily • Strong foundation building before any visible stretch 🚫 What Not to Expect (Yet) • No explosive vertical growth yet • No heavy feeding response required • No need to push PPFD higher at this stage Patience here pays off later. ⸻ 📝 Final Notes This week is all about detail, balance, and consistency. LSD is responding beautifully to the environment, and even at this early stage, the genetics are clearly expressing themselves through leaf shape, texture, and structure. Everything is right on track.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6000 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. 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.
