Frosty Frostbanger isn't growing any taller. I started measuring the cola today for height and width. It is 10 inches tall and I am not really sure how one determines its width. I took a picture and will ask a question to someone who is more experienced than me. I plan on entering this cola in a contest, however, I don't really know what I am going up against. :)😬 I have continued to feed my plant on a regular basis. It has been hot enough here in this area that I water/feed on a daily basis. We have a few more weeks to go until its harvest time. I am curious to see how big the buds are going to get. I can definitely see the dense, tight, resin-soaked buds that glitter like fresh snow in a sparkling winter wonderland as per its description of Fast Buds. . Buds also appear to be very compact. And, it is definitely putting of a super strong smell. That's all for now, Stay tuned for more news next week. Susquihanna

defoliation going on rn, will trim the right side of the plant in the coming days to encourage more proper growth. no fert this week. Thats all for now -

17.05. I don't have anything special to say, of course the weather is terrible... it's 6-7 at night, 15-16 during the day, so they're inside... the temperature inside is 20-21 during the day, at night from 15 to 17 when it's this cold... the plants were exactly 3 weeks old yesterday, today they entered the fourth week and most likely they will wait inside for the fifth week as well because the weather is terrible and there is no point in transplanting yet. Stay High!

Almost time to harvest. They are putting on some good weight now and the jealousy fast is showing the fading colors. I love watching the natural fade of the plant as it finishes up. I have been pretty hands off this grow and im very happy with the results this far. Can't wait to chop and start trying out these new strains by seedsman. Im sure they will be fire like all their other seeds ive grown.

Week 4: Growth Spurts and New Challenges Continued Growth and Health As we move into the fourth week, the plants are showing impressive growth. Their leaves are a lush, vibrant green, and the stems are becoming stronger. The transition to the larger 11-liter fabric pots has clearly paid off, providing the roots with ample space and better aeration. Adjusting Nutrient Levels Given their positive response to the nutrients, I decided to continue with 2/3 of Terra Aquatica Tripart feeding schedule, adjusting slightly to meet their increasing demands. Here's the updated feeding plan for this week: CalMag: 2.5 ml/l (Starting EC before adding nutrients: 0.50 mS/cm) Grow: 1.5 ml/l Bloom: 1.0 ml/l Micro: 0.5 ml/l EC: 1.2 mS/cm (600 ppm PPM-500/TDS) pH: 6.0 Each plant is watered with approximately 20% runoff to ensure there's no nutrient buildup in the coco mix. I will maintain this nutrient level until the pre-flowering stage to avoid the risk of nutrient burn due to over-fertilization. Weather Improvements and Adjustments The weather has been steadily improving, with temperatures expected to rise to around 25°C starting Wednesday, accompanied by abundant sunshine. This upcoming forecast is excellent news for my plants, as I anticipate a final growth spurt before flowering begins. Every centimeter of growth counts at this stage, and I'm optimistic about maximizing their potential under these favorable conditions. Strengthening with Wind Exposure On days with good weather, I move the plants out of the greenhouse to expose them to natural wind. This practice helps strengthen their stems, improving overall stability. Additionally, the wind creates a more challenging environment for pests, helping to keep them at bay. Smart Watering Strategy I only water the plants when the pots feel noticeably lighter. This encourages the roots to search for water, promoting the development of a stronger and more extensive root system. This method helps ensure the plants remain healthy and resilient. Pest Management: Observations and Actions At the beginning of the third week, I noticed dark discolorations on the undersides of some leaves. A few days later, these spots turned into yellow patches. I am still unsure about the cause of these spots. To prevent a potential insect infestation, I sprayed all the leaf surfaces, both top and bottom, with a mildly dosed neem oil mixture. Since then, the spots have not spread further. Because these discolorations are only affecting the lower leaves, they are not causing me significant concern at the moment. Regular inspections and preventive measures are crucial to maintaining the health of the plants and ensuring that any issues are caught early. Decision Against LST At first I have decided against using LST. But some of your comments made me try some LST on two of my plants. I choose Tangie and Gorilla cookies to try out and learn some stuff. Blue dream and Banana purple punch stay without any training. Thanks guys for your advice 👍 Monitoring and Care My daily routine involves checking the plants every morning and evening. This includes: Monitoring the moisture level of the coco mix. Inspecting the plants for any signs of pests or nutrient deficiencies. Growth Observations The plants are responding well to the controlled environment and balanced nutrition. They are growing rapidly, with new leaves appearing almost daily. The stems are thickening, and the overall structure of the plants is robust and healthy. Looking Ahead As we head into week 4, I am optimistic about the continued growth and health of my plants. The combination of a stable environment, appropriate nutrient levels, and diligent care is proving successful. I’m excited to see how they progress and adapt as they move closer to the flowering stage. Seeking Feedback and Tips Your feedback and tips are valuable to me!

Amnesia Skunk Auto · Week 12 From Seed The Zamnesia Way 🌿 Week 12 from seed, and the room is speaking clearly now. The pace has changed. The structure is set. The stretch is long behind us. What we are watching now is the final conversation between plant, soil, and time. This week marks a quiet but important shift: the feed is gone, the bottles are mostly out, and the room is moving into its last phase with little more than water and time. Not because the plant has stopped. Because it already has what it needs. ⸻ From Seed to Here This run was never about chasing size. It was about letting the plant express itself honestly. From the beginning, these Amnesia Skunk Autos stayed compact, controlled, and efficient. Not the tallest in the room. Not the loudest in stretch. But from early on, they showed exactly what they wanted to be: short internodes, dense flower sites, tight stacking, and a natural tendency to build weight instead of height. That is the shape of this plant. And now, in late flower, that early structure is paying itself back. The canopy stayed manageable. The frame stayed compact. And all that energy went where it matters now — into resin, density, and flower mass. This is why reading plant structure early matters. Not every plant wants to become a tower. Some would rather become stone. And that is exactly what these did. ⸻ Week 12 — What Is Changing Now This week the room shifts gears. The bulk is mostly built. The flowers are set. The plant is no longer trying to produce more structure — now it is finishing what it already made. And that changes everything. The metabolism slows. Water demand begins to taper. Nutrient demand drops. Uptake changes. The plant becomes less interested in growth and more interested in completion. That is where we are now. So this week we simplify. Less input. Less interference. Less feeding. More observation. Because late flower is not the time to force more. It is the time to let the plant finish speaking. ⸻ Why We Moved to Water Only (And Why Pure Zym Stays) This week the nutrient stack is stripped back and the room moves into water-only irrigation, with one exception: Pure Zym. That is intentional. At this stage, the plant is no longer asking for aggressive nutrition. It is asking for access. And that is what enzymes help provide. Pure Zym stays in because the soil is still alive. Even when bottles are reduced, the medium is not “empty.” It is still biologically active. Still processing. Still cycling. Still breaking down what remains. That matters now more than people think. The plant may be drinking less feed, but the soil is still working. And enzymes help keep that system moving by supporting the breakdown of leftover organic material, dead root matter, and residual compounds in the medium — making them easier for microbial life to process and easier for the plant to access in its final phase. In simple terms: we are not feeding the bottle anymore. we are feeding the biology that is still feeding the plant. And because this soil will be reused afterward, keeping that microbial life active matters beyond harvest too. The run does not end at chop. The soil keeps going. What is left behind in this pot will not be waste. It will be recycled into the next life — broken down, reprocessed, and eventually returned to the garden again. That is part of the system too. ⸻ The Plant Right Now This is where the room gets beautiful. The greens are beginning to deepen. Pigments are shifting. Leaf tone is changing. The flowers are darkening. The plant is beginning to wear its finish. And with that comes the real reward of late flower: resin. Trichome production is immense now. Heads are fully formed. Coverage is heavy. Resin has moved beyond the sugar leaves and deep into the flower surface itself. The frost is no longer just visual. It has texture now. Density now. Presence now. And the flowers are following the same pattern. Dense. Compact. Heavy for their size. Not oversized plants — but plants that pack. That is one of the most satisfying expressions in the room: small frame, serious output. No wasted motion. No wasted energy. Just compact plants doing exactly what they were built to do. ⸻ Conditions Stay the Same Because the Plants Say So Room conditions remain stable and largely unchanged. Nothing dramatic. No late flower panic. No chasing numbers for the sake of numbers. The room is still run by plant response first. Leaf behavior. Water use. Transpiration. Posture. Response. That remains the real metric. The environmental numbers matter, of course — but only in context. And right now, the context is simple: the leaves are relaxed, the flowers are building, the resin is pushing, and the room is balanced. So we stay steady. No need to force a correction where the plant is already in agreement. ⸻ What to Expect Next (And What Not to Rush) Now we wait and watch. The finish line is visible, but this is still the part where patience matters most. Over the next stretch, expect: * deeper fade * continued pigment shift * slower water uptake * final calyx swell * heavier resin maturity * stronger aroma expression * less vertical movement, more flower completion What not to expect: * explosive new growth * major swelling overnight * dramatic structural change * a miracle in the final days That part is done. Now it is refinement. Maturity. Completion. Harvest may come next week. It may come the week after. The plant will decide that, not the calendar. And late flower always rewards the grower who waits one more day for the right reason. ⸻ Gratitude A run like this is never built alone. Respect to the genetics from Zamnesia. Respect to Plagron for keeping the root zone moving. Respect to the LEDs for carrying the room from start to finish. Respect to the platform for giving growers a place to document honestly. Respect to everyone following quietly, watching closely, learning, questioning, supporting. To the day ones. To the new ones. To the growers. To the lurkers. To the lovers. To the skeptics. To the curious minds. To the old heads. To the ones still learning. To the ones teaching without saying much. All of you are part of the room too.

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.

That's how I know the crop was harvested too early:( ..... but only because someone started visiting my place of cultivation and took my two girls, and left two, so that he wouldn't come back a second time and take them, I decided to cut her down earlier:( that's it such news awaited me when I returned from vacation, but overall the girl looked very beautiful, although she got a lot of stress when the snails ate her, but she endured it and recovered very well:) I will dry the bigger flowers and make bubble hash from the rest, good luck to everyone be careful in nature :).

Let's go to the finale. The eighth and final week of flowering. The flowers are hard as a rock. The trichomes are milky and sometimes an amber hue appears.

#seedsman420growoff and #SeedsmanSeeds 📆 Week 13, 20-26 July 2024 20-26 July - Observed and let the plant grow. 📑 This has been another good week for the Pineapple OG! Although it may appear the flowers are not growing in this stage, be assured they are. It takes patience not to cut too early, one has to let the plant do the talking when it comes to maturity. I can’t imagine growing one for 3 months or more and then not have the discipline to allow it to fully mature before harvest. Looking like at least a couple of more weeks to go until finish. 🍶 23 July nutrient solution changed 🍽️ 23 July feeding schedule updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient Solution EC 2.3 at 74 degree F 🔆 Light power at 75%, DLI 45 canopy coverage at 12hrs 😤 Using General Hydroponics, HGC728040, Dual Diaphragm Air Pump, 320 GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Hello all! I am finally back online and so here is a proper update for the Queen! Citronella has suffered terribly during the house move and following weeks, a few days ago I took her lower third off and defoliated and removed underdeveloped nodes. I dried the popcorn I took off during this process and got 12g (dry). The rest I am leaving on her and hoping and praying those buds swell. The smell is absolutely the greatest thing ever, she is stunningly pungent - even the quick dried popcorn is really beautiful to smoke - so whatever I get from her, whatever little it will be, I will certainly enjoy. Anyway she is now being taken care of a bit more regularly and properly and moving forward until harvest I expect this to continue. Day 109: Fertigated 10l Day 111: The queen is maturing, but I am not sure her buds are going to get much fatter at this point. She is already struggling to hold them up, they must be really dense if they are so heavy this small. I am really at a disappointed stage with this grow, and I must do better next time I grow this strain. I am not impressed with this LED light, I think I need to grow a full tent under my better light and see how they do. Anyway she is trundling along and I don't think too far from the inevitably disappointing harvest.

Update to come shortly💪💪🔥

This week was hot went up to 30 celsius degrees in the room. Now it is okay cooling down I have got good USB driven ventilation system goes 16 hours non stop with one charge CBD Blue Shark is developing well looking very well. Lovely.... Fertilization has started ; So Vitalink bat gunao 10ml per liter and biogrow 1ml/l that's all for now. Day 13, 15th of August 2020: Epsom salt just arrived and applied.
