Growing well this week. She's just starting to smell too 😋 I've not done a thing to her apart from feed/water and turn her pot 180 degrees through the week.

Helloooo Bros&Sis! Ciao! As you can see this baby likes the net a lot! She is growing like she doesn't have some sort of cage to limits her growth, she simply doesn't mind and do her business, stretching here and there 😍 There's some pre-budsites that will develop into a full scented buds in the next weeks, I hope! Enjoy the video, mates! See ya, and always thank you for stoppin by. Ciao! :D

Some leaves got burnt but everything is good, just flipped to 12/12. I think the pH down is causing the leaves to burn or maybe my pH pen is not working properly (I've already calibrated it) so I'll stop adjusting pH, in the next couple of days there should be some pistils. I wanted to let them grow for around 9 weeks but I think they'll grow too tall for my tent. Forgot to add that I kinda supercropped one of them because I didn't want to defoliate anymore.

These girls although still continuing upwards stretch are very short plants. Hoping they really continue to reach hard. Ran out of potassium silicate. Will be continuing with out it for the rest of the grow.

Going into bigger pots

I’m really just updating with photo dumps at this point lol but this white widow is proving to be f*cking massive and these buds are looking like they’re going to STACK!!! I defoliate here and there lightly and open the canopy to get some light further down. She fills a 2x2 out completely! My next run will consist of a few of these for sure!! Should be a great harvest!!

Only fed the bigger plant #2 . The first is getting cloudy just waiting for her to go alil further . Will update more this week but their getting closer.

Week 14 from seed — or around Week 9 flower in this 12/12 from seed journey — and today we focus on our Sour Diesel. The small one. The difficult one. The “unhappy” girl of the room. And honestly? Sometimes those are the plants that teach us the most. This report also represents the beginning of harvest time for her, although we decided to divide the final documentation into multiple updates because there were simply too many photos and too much to talk about in a single post. So this entry focuses mainly on the living plant itself: her structure, morphology, resin production, density, colors, trichomes, and overall expression before harvest. The next report will go deeper into the harvest process itself — cutting, trimming, drying, observations after chop, and eventually the smoke review once everything is properly cured. Now, let’s address the obvious part first: yes, she stayed much smaller than the rest of the room. And that’s completely okay. When growing multiple genetics together in one shared environment, perfection for every individual plant becomes impossible. One room cannot fully satisfy the exact preferences of every cultivar at the same time. Some genetics dominate the environment naturally, while others adapt differently. Sour Diesel in this case never became the biggest or happiest plant in the tent, but she never stopped fighting either. And honestly, there is something beautiful about that. Despite her smaller structure, she produced dense, compact flowers with excellent frost coverage and surprisingly solid stacking. She may not have filled the room vertically, but she absolutely made her presence known up close. Sometimes quality hides inside smaller frames. Morphologically she developed in a very compact way compared to the taller spear-shaped plants around her. Tight internodes, clustered flower sites, chunky calyx development, and resin-covered sugar leaves gave her a very distinct look in the room. As harvest approached, the flowers started showing more maturity signals everywhere: pistils darkening and curling inward, calyxes swelling harder day after day, resin heads thickening, and that beautiful late-flower texture beginning to appear across the buds. And honestly, the trichomes are looking gorgeous. Frost levels became impressive for such a small plant, especially in macro range. Under magnification, the flowers almost stop looking real. Tiny crystal forests everywhere, sticky sugar leaves, swollen resin heads, and layers of texture forming across every surface. Some trichomes are still clear, many are cloudy, and small amber signs are beginning to appear here and there — exactly the kind of progression we like to monitor carefully during these final stages. The colors also started telling the end-of-cycle story. Greens slowly softening, pistils shifting into orange and brown tones, flowers tightening up and looking heavier despite the plant’s overall small size. She may not have been the easiest plant in the room, but visually she absolutely earned her moment. And of course, we cannot ignore the newest member of the inspection team: our tiny plastic fly friend. He or she took the job very seriously this week, carefully inspecting trichomes, density, calyx development, and overall quality control during the photoshoot. Thankfully, the inspection passed successfully. No complaints from management. This update is also a reminder that not every successful plant needs to be gigantic. Sometimes growers become too focused on size and forget to appreciate resilience, uniqueness, resin quality, flower density, or simple beauty. Sour Diesel may have remained compact, but she still carried herself with character all the way to the finish line. For now, we continue observing and documenting her final living moments before harvest. The next update will dive much deeper into the actual chop, trimming, drying process, and final impressions once she officially completes her journey. So if anyone has been following this little fighter since the beginning, stay tuned — we are not finished with her story yet. Massive thanks once again to everyone involved in this journey: Zamnesia for the genetics. Plagron for the support. The sponsors and equipment partners helping make these projects possible. Grow Diaries for providing the platform. The growers sharing advice and positivity. The longtime followers who have been here since the first weeks. The new people discovering the project now. The skeptics, the critics, the silent viewers, the supporters — everybody crossing through here adds something to the experience. From grower to growers, thank you for following along. And to our little Sour Diesel: small, stubborn, frosty, and unforgettable. — A quick note about some of the macro photos and “photo merges” shared in this diary. A lot of the close-up images shown here are actually focus-stacked macro photographs. That means they are not a single photo, but a combination of many images merged together to create one final detailed shot. Depending on magnification and depth, some stacks here were made from around 50–60 photos, while the biggest one in this update reached around 255 individual frames. Why? Because at high magnification, the depth of field becomes incredibly small. Sometimes only a tiny part of the trichome or calyx is in focus at once. So we take many photos while slowly shifting focus through the subject, capturing different layers of detail from front to back. After that, all frames are merged together using Affinity Photo 2, creating a single image with much more depth and sharpness than a normal macro shot could achieve alone. Final color adjustments and edits are also done afterward to better represent what we experienced visually in the studio. So behind every “simple” trichome photo there is actually a surprising amount of work, patience, and processing involved — but honestly, it’s worth it. These plants become entire microscopic worlds once you get close enough. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

Week 14 here with our PURPLE LEMONADE by Fast Buds! February, 24, 2020 (DAY 93) - THATS IT THATS ALL FOLKS! The flush has began, absolutely nothing but RO water for 2 days and then 36Hrs of darkness and she is chopped!!!! She has really really turned purple in the last week!! i am so in love with this plant, the smell is phenomenal so sweet and citrusy, i cant wait to enjoy this wonderful beast!

riego progresivo de 150-175ml/planta/día ha estado bastante nublado, no han crecido mucho, pero parecen bastante sanas

Colour really showing through now, and really starting to swell everywhere! Smell is also unreal, very fuely and sweet, naughty combo! Had to tie the side branches to the main stem as they were so heavy they were all sagging down! Started to flush at the end of this week :)

Vamos familia vamos actualizar la segunda semana de floración de estas Kritical. Es una variedad sencilla amarillean un poco por una carencia de magnesio que solventare con los productos de Agrobeta ya veréis cómo recuperan. En las fotos podréis comprobar que 3 de 6 sufren bastante la carencia de magnesio. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 20, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/65% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo, buenos humos 💨💨💨

Week 3 By week three, the plant begins to show more structure. Internodal spacing is moderate, resulting in a balanced but slightly open form. Leaf size increases, and the stem thickens gradually. The plant appears healthy overall, though a mild lack of uniformity remains visible in the canopy. Growth feels steady but not particularly energetic.

Colorado Cookie didn’t take the nutes as well as her companion, little burnt tips. Everything’s ok, I guess, I wish the CC stops growing as she is approaching “danger zone”, only have a 60x6x120. I guess LTS should have been more then an option.

These fast bud genetics have given me a new hope for autos. For 53 days I have some nice sized colas and buds with beautiful color and the most amazing smells. I can’t believe these things just get better by the day. Can’t wait to grow my next set of fastbuds genetics

All healthy very good progress very impressed with this seed

Plants are looking great. Wedding cake smells like heaven and is frosty and sticky. It is not ready for harvest though. Trichomes are milky but found no amber coloured trichomes. I'll give her another week. Did some defoliation on all three plants and Another topping for SL. Wedding cake has a few big buds on the lower parts of the plant that are really close to each other. I had to bend them away from each other to avoid bud rot and help with ventilation. Additionally I had to pick out small black flies (Gewittertierchen) out of the Buds. I cut out the small buds of Hype1 with no chance for sunlight. Hopefully she will focus on the main buds on the top. Don't worry keep growing;)

Think I got this this time 🎉 been a long prosess but i will get 2 oz this time fingers crossed 🤞 any tips would be great as I’m a novice with led first serious grow under my belt These are the first cuttings Iv taken hopeing for 50% success I’ll get there in the end

5.20.25. 3rd week of flower! Plant is starting to fill in nice after rough start and being stressed out! Putting on nice new healthy growth! Watering everyday about 3/4 gallon! Thanks for checking out !
