Another week is coming to an end, and we're getting closer and closer to harvest, and with it, those great results. 💪🍁 In these 15 days before harvest, I start watering only with RO water and a pH of 6.2. At the beginning of the last week, and about 3 days before harvest, I'll flush with RO + Cleanse 10mL.

These ladies continue to develop very nicely and lucky stopped stretching pretty much in the beginning of this week and the buds are forming super nicely. Since I also don’t observe a stretch in flower anymore, I decided to feed pk13/14 for the next week. It continues to surprise me how hungry these autos are, much hungrier than my glookies fro example. Unfortunately I realized that the plant on the very right of the box produces much smaller buds than the other two. I am pinning that on the fan right above her, so have pointed it slightly higher, but I guess the damage is done:(.

I transplanted everything over the past 3 or 4 days and am just giving them some time to break in their new shoes before I flip them. I got a new bottle of calmag I think the one I was using was old it's been on the shelf for a while. The heat is still a little lower than I would like and now with the bigger pots humidity has gone way up.

Wow, look how frosty it's become! It feels like I'm growing a feminized plant instead of an autoflower. I'm really looking forward to the next few weoeks and seeing how the buds develop.Das

Update vom Blütetag 39 Ich wünsch euch allen erstmal dicke Buds an den Bäumen und alles gute zum Nikolaus! 🎅💚 Die Woche ging's wieder mit einigen Fragezeichen weiter, aber seht euch die Bilder selber an. Bis jetzt macht mir nur die Blue Cheese n bisschen Sorgen, die braunen spitzen werden schlimmer und bei den andern sind auch schon erste Anzeichen zu sehen. Erst dacht ich es kommt von Überwässerung, Lichtstress, oder Klimaproblemen und mittlerweile denk ich an zuviel CalMag und der Booster hat ihnen dann den rest gegeben. Wenn mich nicht alles täuscht verstärkt zu viel Magnesium die aufnahme von Phosphor, ist zumindest meine Theorie. Jetzt bekommen sie erstmal nur Wasser, denk das werden wir schon noch gut zu Ende bringen. Die Erde hat auf jeden genug Power wie das aussieht, beim nächsten run müsste das besser klappen. Schönes Wochenende euch allen! 🤠💚🖖

All pictures were taken on day 49 Buds are stacking up and she is almost done stretching I gave her 2x about 1L with 0.5ml/l Top-Max & Bio-Bloom this week She is looking great. Still dark green leaves, no deficiencies😸

The buds have gotten a bit fatter since last week 😼Im very happy so far. I did over feed them a bit a couple of days ago, probably for the excess PK13/14. You can see some of the leaves have burnt tips. Well now ive ran out of CANNABOOST and decided to replice it with Canadian Xpress Headmasta, ive read great things about this booster and its also much cheaper :)) Peace

Week 21 (30-11 to ?????) 30-11 Today i harvested her! I removed all the fan leaves and left the buds on the branches to dry. 1-12 Temperature: 16°c to 19.5°c Humidity: 50% to 56% 2-12 Temperature: 14.7°c to 18.5°c Humidity: 54% to 57% 3-12 Temperature: 16.1°c to 18.9°c Humidity: 54% to 59% 4-12 Temperature: 15.5°c to 17.5°c Humidity: 57% to 62% 5-12 Temperature: 15.2°c to 17.7°c Humidity: 60% to 71% 6-12 Temperature: 16.5°c to 17.8°c Humidity: 60% to 66% 7-12 Temperature: 16.4°c to 17.9°c Humidity: 57% to 63% 8-12 Temperature: 16.6°c to 18.5°c Humidity: 56% to 60% 9-12 Temperature: 16.9°c to 19°c Humidity: 57% to 62% 10-12 Temperature: 17.4°c to 19.5°c Humidity: 60% to 64% 12-12 Temperature: 17.9°c to 20.1°c Humidity: 61% to 76% 14-12 The buds felt dry enough and ready to get their final trim before they go into the jar for curing! Trimjail it is! 16-12 Today i finished trimming everything. This is the end result: Dried bud: 116 grams. Dried trim: 23 grams. Thats over 1 gram per watt, and i am very happy with that!! In the curing jar they go! Let me know if you liked my diary and see you all in the next one!

Peleando un poco con la temperatura y humedad pero de resto perfecto, hemos hecho una defoliacion bastante sutil.

All is on track for a nice grow... Dwc. For those that havent grown dwc... Its worth trying... Trust me... Hope you enjoy the pics...

This week I top all 8 Green Poison ( 4dwc and 4 coco ) clones. They look healthy and happy and few days later I already start to low stress training (LST) them.

.

BOOMING. Have had an unusual amount of thrips and noticed a few Katydid nymphs on Tuesday (7/22), so I hit everything with 1.5tsp Neem Oil and 1 tsp of Dr Brommers soap in a 1 qt sprayer. I also decided to do my only planned dusting of Diatomaceous Earth. Executed that on Wednesday, 7/23, and also top dressed with DE to attack larvae. Thursday 7/24 Mixed up first batch of flowering top dressing. I put it into a 55 gal garbage can and watered it to get the cooking process started. Will only let it go for a week or so and then will top dress the girls.

Esta semana engordaron bastante las flores, los últimos dos dias de esta semana deje de regar con nutrientes, pura agua 🚿 para empezar el flush

Hi As you can see my babies are close to the cut, I would say 2 weeks left. So now I’ll stop feeding them and let the nature do its job. Its for sure one of my best session

Again another steady week, some additional nutrients given right after some defoliation and LST maintenance. The new PH And TDS meter seem to be helping a lot with give her what she needs! Thanks again for reading! Happy smoking and of course happy growing 😊✌️

🌿 Frosted Guava Auto by Zamnesia | Pheno B | Week 13 🦄💎 The Dark Little Unicorn Is Showing Us Her Genetic Signature 🦄🌸✨ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! 🌱💚 Well... Here we are again. 😂 And honestly? I'm starting to think this girl might be trying to tell us something. Because the more I look at Frosted Guava Pheno B... the more I look around the rest of the room... and the more I compare what we're seeing... the more I'm beginning to wonder if this beautiful little foxtailing madness is simply part of her genetic personality. 🦄🌸 The majority of the room isn't doing this. Yes, we have a few other plants showing some foxtailing here and there. But overall? Statistically speaking... the room is not a foxtailing jungle. 😂 These Frosted Guava girls, however? They seem to have received a completely different memo. 😂🦄🌸 And I actually love that. Because that's exactly what the 8×8 Adventure is here to show us. Same room. Same general environment. Same photons. Same grower. Same ecosystem. Different genetics. Different expressions. Different personalities. And sometimes... those genetics speak VERY loudly. 😂🌸🦄 So this week... let's give our dark little unicorn the spotlight. Because she's shining. She's doing her thing. She's continuing to evolve. And honestly? I'm reaching the point where I'm simply enjoying the view. 😂💚 ──────────────────────── 🦄 WEEK 13 – THE FOXTailing SIGNATURE? This week, I'm looking at her and thinking: "Okay... this is starting to look genetic." 😂 Now, obviously, I'm not going to pretend that one grow is enough to prove exactly which gene is responsible for what. We're observing. We're comparing. We're learning. But when you have two Frosted Guava phenotypes showing very similar unusual flowering behaviour... while the majority of the rest of the room isn't... well... it's certainly an interesting pattern. 🦄🌸 And that's one of the things I love most about this project. We're not looking at one plant in isolation. We're looking at twelve plants sharing the same room. And when something repeatedly appears in one genetic line... your curiosity naturally starts asking questions. Is it environmental? Is it nutritional? Is it simply the individual phenotype? Or is there a genetic component? 🤔🌿 I don't have the final answer. But I'm certainly enjoying watching the evidence build. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE ROOM IS NOT A FOXTailing JUNGLE This is where the comparison becomes really interesting. We've got a room full of plants. Different cultivars. Different phenotypes. Different structures. Different flowering behaviours. And yes... there are a few other foxtails around the room. But overall? The majority are not expressing this characteristic to anything like the same degree. And then we look at Frosted Guava... 🦄 "Hello." 😂🌸 There she is. And her sister is basically standing beside her saying: "Yeah... us too." 😂😂😂 That's what makes me suspicious that we're looking at something inherent to the genetics rather than simply something happening randomly throughout the room. Again... I'm not claiming we've scientifically identified a specific gene. I'm simply saying: the pattern is interesting. And in a project like this... patterns are exactly what we're here to observe. ──────────────────────── GENETICS ARE WHISPERING... OR MAYBE SHOUTING This is where the 8×8 Adventure gets really fun. Because sometimes genetics don't whisper. Sometimes they walk into the room... look at you... and scream: "THIS IS WHAT I DO." 😂🌸 Frosted Guava seems to have chosen: "Flowers?" Yes. "Lots of them?" Yes. "Normal structure?" Absolutely not. 😂 "Foxtails?" YES. 🦄🌸🔥 And honestly? I'm here for it. Because this is exactly why we grow multiple plants and document individual phenotypes. If every plant behaved exactly the same... there wouldn't be nearly as much to learn. But they don't. They show us differences. And those differences are the story. ──────────────────────── 🦄 OUR DARK LITTLE UNICORN IS STILL SHINING And let's not forget the most important part. Whatever the reason... she's beautiful. 💚🦄 She's still carrying that gorgeous deep-green character. She's still developing beautifully. She's still building flowers. She's still looking substantial. And she's still doing everything at her own rhythm. She's not trying to copy her sister. She's not trying to copy anybody else in the room. She's simply being Frosted Guava Pheno B. And I really like that. There is something incredibly satisfying about watching a phenotype become recognizable. At the beginning... she's just another plant. Then week by week... you start noticing little things. Then you start recognizing her from across the room. And eventually... you don't even need the label. You just look and think: "Yep. That's her." 😂🦄💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 MORE FOXTails = MORE CHARACTER And yes... I'm going to keep enjoying those foxtails. 😂 Because I know some people love them. Some people don't. Some people see them as beautiful. Some people prefer traditional, compact flower structures. And that's perfectly fine. That's the beauty of growing. Everybody has different eyes. Different preferences. Different favourite structures. Different colours. Different expressions. Me? I like the weird stuff. 😂💚💜💙 I like green. I like purples. I like blues. I like unusual structures. I like plants that make me stop and ask: "Okay... what the hell are you doing?" 😂🦄 And Frosted Guava Pheno B definitely qualifies. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SAME ROOM – DIFFERENT STORY Once again... we come back to the heart of the 8×8 Adventure. Same room. Same general environmental conditions. Same lighting ecosystem. Same nutritional foundation. Same irrigation system. Same 12/12 schedule. Same grower. And yet... look at the plants. Some are compact. Some are tall. Some are dense. Some are open. Some are incredibly frosty. Some develop different colours. Some move faster. Some move slower. And these Frosted Guava girls? They're apparently members of the Foxtail Club. 😂🦄🌸 That's the experiment. The environment provides the stage. Genetics decide what kind of performance happens on it. And Pheno B is putting on a very recognizable performance. ──────────────────────── ☀️ SAME PHOTONS – DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION The lighting environment remains the same upgraded setup we've been running across the room. The additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are still giving us that expanded lighting capability. We're controlling the output rather than simply running everything flat out. Approximately: 💡 ~59% power from the plug with around: ☀️ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy with natural variation depending on plant height and position. And this is another thing I love watching. The photons are basically the same opportunity. They arrive. The plants receive them. And then... genetics interpret them. 😂☀️🌿 Pheno B has apparently decided: "Thank you very much. I'll use these photons to make some wonderfully weird flowers." 😂🦄🌸 Fair enough. ──────────────────────── 💡 MORE CAPABILITY – STILL NO NEED TO INTERFERE The lighting upgrade gave us more capability. It didn't give us more reasons to constantly touch the plants. And I think that's important. We have more control. More flexibility. More ability to provide a strong, consistent lighting environment. But the plants still get to decide what they do with it. And Frosted Guava Pheno B? She's doing just fine. So I'm not going to interfere just for the sake of being busy. 😂 The grower doesn't get extra points for touching the plant every five minutes. Sometimes the best thing we can do... is watch. ──────────────────────── 😂 I'M ALMOST JUST ENJOYING THE VIEW NOW Honestly? That's where I'm at. I'm almost becoming a tourist in my own grow room. 😂📸🌿 I walk in. I look around. I see the girls. I check that everything is running properly. I look at the flowers. I look at the structures. I look at the frost. And then I just... enjoy the view. 😂 Because what else am I supposed to do? They're growing. They're developing. They're healthy. They're doing their thing. So I'll keep providing. I'll keep maintaining. I'll keep observing. And I'll let them entertain me. That's a pretty good job description. 😂💚 ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE FLOWERS KEEP DEVELOPING And underneath all the foxtailing... there's still a lot of beautiful flower development happening. The structures are becoming more substantial. The flowers continue to gain presence. The plant continues to mature. And that's what matters. The foxtailing is simply one of her characteristics. It isn't the entire story. She's also: 🌿 Green. 🌸 Flowering. ❄️ Frosty. 💪 Substantial. 🦄 Unusual. 💚 Beautiful. And together... all those characteristics make her what she is. Frosted Guava Pheno B. ──────────────────────── ❄️ THE DARK LITTLE UNICORN IS STILL FROSTY And yes... the frost hasn't gone anywhere. 😂❄️🦄 The flowers continue carrying that beautiful resinous appearance. The darker foliage creates a beautiful contrast. The developing flowers stand out. And then the camera gets closer... and suddenly you find another layer of detail. Pistils. Trichomes. Flower texture. Little foxtailing structures. Tiny differences between one cola and another. It's almost like every flower has its own little personality. 📸🌸 And I love documenting that. ──────────────────────── 🦄 PHENO A AND PHENO B – THE UNICORN SISTERS And of course... we have to talk about her sister. Because this is becoming more and more interesting. Two Frosted Guava girls. Same room. Same general conditions. Same grower. And both showing this unusual flowering characteristic. That doesn't prove anything by itself... but it certainly makes the genetic theory more interesting. 🦄🦄 Pheno A has her own expression. Pheno B has hers. They're not identical plants. But they share something. And that something is worth watching. That's the beauty of keeping individual phenotype diaries. You can actually go back. You can compare. You can look at the photographs. You can look at the progression. And eventually... you start seeing patterns that you might completely miss with a single plant. ──────────────────────── 🌿 THERE'S STILL NOT MUCH FOR ME TO DO And yes... we're repeating ourselves again. 😂 But that's because reality hasn't changed. There's not much for me to do. And I'm not complaining. I'm celebrating it. Because if something suddenly needs major intervention at this stage... that's normally not the kind of surprise I want. 😂 So thank God... we're simply maintaining. We're looking. We're providing. We're supporting. We're observing. And we're letting the plant continue. That's a good week. A very good week. ──────────────────────── 🙏 SOMETIMES "NOTHING" IS THE BEST NEWS This is something I think gets overlooked when people document grows. We tend to celebrate action. "Today I did this." "Today I changed that." "Today I trained." "Today I adjusted." But sometimes... the best update is: "Nothing needed changing." 😂🌿 Because that means the system is working. The plant is happy. The environment is stable. The flowers are developing. And the grower isn't having to put out fires. That's not boring. That's success. And Frosted Guava Pheno B is giving us exactly that kind of week. ──────────────────────── ⚗️ NUTRITION – KEEPING THE ROOM MOVING FORWARD The nutritional programme continues along with the overall progression of the room. We're not trying to create a special recipe just because she's Frosted Guava. She's part of the same environment. Part of the same nutritional strategy. And once again... she's showing us what she does with it. That's what I'm interested in. Not forcing her. Not trying to make her behave differently. Just watching. Observing. Learning. And supporting. Because she's already doing the interesting part. 🌿💚 ──────────────────────── 🌡️ WEEK 13 – ROOM CONDITIONS The room continues broadly around: 🌡️ Day temperature: ~26.5°C 🌙 Night temperature: ~26°C 💧 RH: ~61% 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25°C 💦 Nutrient solution: ~25°C ⚗️ pH: ~6.02 ⚡ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~693 ppm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 Same room. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same ecosystem. Different genetic expression. 🦄🌿💚 ──────────────────────── 📸 JUST ENJOYING THE VIEWS I think this is probably my favourite sentence for this week: I'm just enjoying the views. 😂📸🌿 Because sometimes you reach that point where the grow becomes less about what you're doing... and more about what you're seeing. You look at the canopy. You look at the flowers. You look at the different phenotypes. And you realize: "Damn... we built something pretty cool here." 😂💚 The plants are doing the work. The room is running. The genetics are speaking. And I'm lucky enough to stand in the middle of it with a camera. Not a bad place to be. ──────────────────────── IS FOXTailing PART OF HER GENETICS? That's the question I'm increasingly curious about. Again... I'm not claiming we've scientifically proven it. We're simply observing a pattern. The room overall isn't heavily foxtailing. There are a few other examples. But the Frosted Guava girls? They're definitely making a case for themselves. 😂🦄🌸 So maybe there's a genetic tendency here. Maybe there's something in this cultivar that encourages this type of flower expression. Maybe it's a combination of genetics and environment. Maybe it's simply how these particular phenotypes express themselves. That's what makes the experiment interesting. We don't have to pretend we already know. We can simply observe. And say: "That's interesting." Then keep watching. That's science enough for a grow diary. 😂🔬🌿 ──────────────────────── 🍇 MORE FLOWER TO ENJOY And at the end of the day... whether you call them foxtails... extended flower structures... or simply this girl's weird little personality... they're still beautiful flowers. 😂🌸 And more flower means more to appreciate later. The harvest chapter will eventually come. The trimming chapter will eventually come. And yes... these unusual structures may make the trimming a little more interesting. 😂✂️ But that's Future DogDoctor's problem. Right now... Present DogDoctor is busy enjoying the view. 😂📸🦄 ──────────────────────── 🔮 FUTURE DOGDOCTOR CAN DEAL WITH THE SCISSORS I've learned to stop solving problems that don't exist yet. 😂 Harvest? Later. Trimming? Later. Drying? Later. Curing? Definitely later. Right now? She's still growing. So let her grow. Let her finish her story. Let her surprise us. And when the scissors eventually appear... we'll deal with whatever beautiful weirdness she gives us. 😂✂️🦄 Until then... back to watching. ──────────────────────── 🌸 THE UNICORN DOESN'T NEED A SCRIPT I think that's another thing I love about this girl. She doesn't seem to care what I expected. 😂 She just does her thing. I can make predictions. I can make theories. I can look at her sister. I can look at the rest of the room. And she'll still look back at me and say: "Yeah... anyway... I'm going to do this." 😂🦄🌸 And honestly? Good. That's what I want. I want plants that teach me something. I want plants that surprise me. I want plants that make me question assumptions. And Frosted Guava Pheno B is doing exactly that. ──────────────────────── 👑 LET HER HAVE HER SPOTLIGHT Some girls demand attention. Some steal it. Some quietly earn it. And this little unicorn? She's earned it. 🦄👑 She's beautiful. She's unusual. She's developing. She's frosty. She's green. She's building flowers. She's showing a very interesting genetic expression. And she's doing all of it without asking for much from me. So yes... the spotlight belongs to her this week. Let's make her shine. Let's appreciate the weirdness. Let's appreciate the structure. Let's appreciate the frost. Let's appreciate the genetics. And let's simply enjoy the view. 🦄🌸❄️💚 ──────────────────────── 🔍 WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW At this stage, I'm watching: Whether the foxtailing expression continues. 🌸 How the flowers continue developing. ❄️ Resin development. 🌿 Overall plant health. 💚 Her beautiful dark-green character. 🦄 How much more personality she decides to show us. 📸 And, of course, documenting the journey. That's enough. No need to force anything. No need to invent work. No need to predict the ending. Just keep watching. ──────────────────────── 💭 FINAL THOUGHTS – THE DARK LITTLE UNICORN SHINES Week 13. Frosted Guava Auto Pheno B. 🦄🌿💚 And honestly... I'm starting to really appreciate how different she is. She's not simply another plant in the room. She's becoming a very recognizable phenotype. The dark green. The beautiful flowers. The frost. The structure. And now... the foxtailing. 😂🦄🌸 The more I compare her with the rest of the room... the more interesting that characteristic becomes. Maybe it's genetic. Maybe it's part of this cultivar's expression. Maybe the environment is simply helping reveal it. Whatever the final answer is... I'm enjoying watching the story unfold. And that's the whole point. We're not here to force every plant into the same mould. We're here to see what they become. And Frosted Guava Pheno B? She's becoming one beautiful, dark, frosty, foxtailing little unicorn. 😂🦄❄️🌸 She's shining. She's doing her thing. And I'm almost just standing there enjoying the view. That's a pretty damn good place to be. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep maintaining. And let's let this girl finish the story she started. The harvest can wait. The scissors can wait. The trimming can wait. All of that belongs to another chapter. Right now... we grow. We observe. We provide. We appreciate. And we enjoy. 🦄🌸💚✨ Keep doing your thing, Frosted Guava. Keep surprising us. Keep showing us your personality. Keep making those beautiful weird flowers. And let's see where this genetic journey takes us. ──────────────────────── 🙏 THANK YOU As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. 💚🌱 Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Frosted Guava genetics and for giving us these beautiful unicorns to follow. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the nutritional side of the adventure. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and allowing us to explore this expanded lighting setup. 💡☀️🌿 Thank you to LumiFlora for helping illuminate the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And of course... thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person stopping by to see what these girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. 💚 And Frosted Guava Pheno B? You're still doing exactly what you want. 😂🦄 You're evolving. You're developing. You're shining. You're showing us a very interesting expression. And you're giving us another reason to love the genetic diversity inside this room. Maybe that foxtailing is genetic. Maybe there's more to discover. Maybe we'll understand it better by the end. And maybe... she'll simply keep being a beautiful little freak and leave us wondering. 😂🦄🌸 Either way... I'm enjoying the ride. So this week, the spotlight belongs to you. Let's make you shine. Let's appreciate every flower. Every foxtail. Every frosty little detail. Every beautiful green leaf. Every strange little structure. Because you're not trying to be anyone else. You're just being you. And that's exactly what makes you interesting. 🦄💚🌸✨ Growers Love, my friends. 💚🌱 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle... where the photons keep flying, the flowers keep developing, the genetics keep speaking, the grower keeps enjoying the view, and our dark little unicorn keeps doing exactly what the hell she wants. 😂🦄🌿 Let her shine. 💚

Week 15 From Seed | Lemon Cherry Gelato 🍋🍒 | Drying, Trimming & Curing Begins Well… Here we are again 😄 Another chapter of this Lemon Cherry Gelato run officially closes, and honestly, this update feels like the moment where the entire grow finally becomes “real medicine.” First of all, once again, apologies for dividing the harvest into multiple reports lately. I know the updates have been stretched across several weeks, but honestly… with the amount of documentation, photos, macros, videos, trimming sessions, resin collection, curing observations, and extraction experiments we have been doing lately, trying to compress everything into a single update would almost feel disrespectful to the process itself. And this run deserves the proper attention. So for everyone arriving now, quick recap: These Lemon Cherry Gelato girls were grown entirely under 12/12 from seed. No traditional vegetative phase. No massive training sessions. No giant bush shaping. Just letting the genetics express themselves naturally while documenting the process from beginning to end. And what these girls became honestly surprised me. Compact plants. Thick trunks. Heavy branches. Dense stacking. Ridiculous resin production. And some seriously loud terpene expression. The previous report reflected harvest itself: - the fade, - the structure, - broken branches, - resin-covered fingers, - hanging flowers, - drying environment, - and all the beautiful chaos surrounding harvest week. This report becomes the next important stage: Drying. Trimming. Finger hash. Final flower preparation. And the beginning of cure. The girls dried for roughly 10 days under controlled conditions: - around 18–20°C, - roughly 60% RH, - with the first couple of days slightly lower around 45% to help surface moisture leave the flowers safely before stabilizing the room again. And honestly… the dry came out beautifully. Dense flowers like these always make growers slightly nervous during drying because chunky buds can trap moisture surprisingly easily. But breaking the plants into branches instead of hanging full plants ended up being absolutely the right decision here. The branches slowly reached that perfect moment growers wait for: not snapping aggressively… not bending softly… …but that beautiful little “click.” That tiny sound telling you: “Okay. It’s time.” So naturally… Mr. Baggy joined the trimming session 😄 Studio lights on. Trim bin ready. Scissors ready. Music playing. Gloves on. And branch by branch, these girls slowly transformed into jars full of finished medicine. And honestly? These plants were absurdly sticky. Not just frosty visually. Actually greasy. The kind of resin that keeps building layer after layer on the gloves until eventually you stop trimming for a moment and realize you accidentally created little hash sculptures on your fingertips again 😄 Which brings us to one of the best parts of this report: Finger hash. Or more specifically in this stage: classic trimming resin collected during dry manicure. Every session slowly left behind beautiful sticky resin on the gloves and fingers, and instead of wasting it, everything got collected carefully with patience and love. And wow… These girls made AMAZING finger hash. Soft. Oily. Extremely workable. Instantly greasy with just body heat alone. No aggressive heat needed. No real pressure needed. Just the warmth from the hands was enough to start transforming the resin into beautiful little temple balls almost immediately. That alone already says a lot about resin quality. We even documented the full process: - trim collection, - kief separation, - resin handling, - pressing, - shaping, - and the final little temple balls. And honestly, seeing the transformation from loose resin into a perfectly smooth little sphere never gets old. There’s something deeply satisfying and strangely ancient about it. The final dry numbers honestly made me extremely happy too: Plant 1: 304.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Plant 2: 163.5 grams dry trimmed flower. Total: 468 grams of dry cured manicured medicine. And for a 12/12-from-seed run? That’s honestly fantastic. Especially considering how compact these plants actually were physically. Small-ish structure… massive output. Exactly the kind of run that keeps teaching you not to judge plants purely by height. The flowers themselves turned out gorgeous: - dense, - compact, - extremely resinous, - loud aroma, - beautiful coloration, - swollen calyxes, - and surprisingly heavy for their size. The terpene profile already started evolving beautifully during trimming too. That loud fresh-harvest sharpness slowly began softening into something deeper and sweeter: - creamy citrus, - candy-like fruit, - gas, - soft cherry sweetness, - earthy backend notes, - and occasional creamy dessert-like moments depending on the jar. And this is where curing now becomes incredibly important. Because harvest is not the finish line. Curing is where flowers slowly begin becoming complete. For storage and cure, we decided to use both: - traditional glass jars, - and Grove Bags. And honestly, both have their strengths. Glass jars remain timeless: simple, effective, reliable, beautiful for long-term observation and burping routines. Meanwhile Grove Bags bring modern humidity-control technology into the process and honestly make maintaining stable curing conditions dramatically easier when used properly. The idea is not “one replacing the other.” It’s more about understanding different tools and seeing how each behaves over time. And speaking of beautiful details… Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the gorgeous storage jars with the engraved lid design because honestly… they look incredible 😄 Little details matter. Especially during cure. Because curing becomes ritualistic in a strange way: opening jars, checking aromas, observing moisture, feeling texture changes, watching flowers slowly mature week after week. The medicine almost feels alive during this phase. We also included: - trimming timelapses, - resin handling, - branch breakdowns, - finger hash photos, - hanging flower shots, - studio trimming moments, - and a bunch of closeups because honestly these girls deserved proper documentation until the very end. And next week… Next week becomes the final chapter. Smoke review. Full cure review. Flavor translation from smell to smoke. Effect profile. Breakdown texture. Ash quality. Terpene evolution. Final impressions. And the real question: How did this Lemon Cherry Gelato actually become as medicine after all this time? Because now the grow part is mostly over. What remains is experience. And honestly… that’s the most important part. Huge thank you once again: - Zamnesia, - Plagron, - the LEDs, - all the gear involved, - GrowDiaries, - the community, - the old followers, - the silent supporters, - the curious new visitors, - and everyone spending even a few minutes following these updates. And of course… Thank you Mr. Baggy 😄💙 He survived another trimming session somehow. See you all in the final chapter 🌱
