Hello again, GrowDiaries family! 😎
We’ve entered Week 13 and the Critical is reaching the finish line with incredible elegance. Autumn colors have taken over the leaves, a sign that the plant is moving its last reserves into the flowers.
📏 Measurements & Training
-Height: 40 cm. Solid and very heavy structure.
-Canopy Management: Airflow is perfect. The 12°C night temperature is helping the plant show off those spectacular autumn tones.
-Visual Check: I’ve checked the trichomes closely: they are finishing their transition from transparent to milky. No amber yet, which indicates we are right at the peak of THC production. The pistils (hairs), however, are showing advanced oxidation.
🌡️ Environment & Climate Challenges
-Temperature: Maintaining 12°C at night and 27°C during the day.
-The Strategy: I’m sticking with lukewarm water for watering. During this ripening phase, it’s vital that roots don't lock up due to the cold, ensuring the trichomes finish turning milky uniformly.
-Humidity (RH): Locked at 40%. With buds this dense, low humidity is my best insurance policy.
💧 Watering & Organic Strategy
-Nutrition: We are in the home stretch. This has been the last week of nutrients to prepare for the imminent root flush.
-Pest Control: The cinnamon barrier has been a resounding success. The substrate reaches the end of the cycle completely clean.
🌿 Flower & Resin Evolution
-Diamond shine! ❄️ The resin is now much more opaque and dense. The aroma is pungent and sweet, the typical fragrance of a Critical at its optimal point.
A huge thank you to all the growers who are following this diary and for all your support and comments! It's a pleasure to share this journey with such a great community. Happy growing to everyone! 😉👍

Oh man, she hit that supersoil and fucking took off! I went up to my cottage for the forth of July weekend, and she had just exploded into flower. Gave her a good watering when I got home with recharge, the video is a 3 hour timelapse after her watering!

Hey everyone :-).
The last plants were also placed in the bloom chamber kammer.
Everyone has made great progress this week 🙏🏻.
There is not much to say about this week, I think videos and pictures say more like words 🙈😎.
I wish you all a good start into the week :-) Stay healthy and let it grow 🙏🏻👍

* Starting this week with a final 🍃 defoliation, the plants responded really great after every training (LST, defoliation, lollipoping), eating and drinking like real champs 🏋️♀️ 🧗♂️.
* Humidifier 🌪️ makes a real difference, through low humidity (40%-50%) we achieved better VPD -> more transpiration -> faster growth, the plants enjoying it.
* Gemma's crystalize NPK for bloom, collaborates with the others boosters with no problem (reccomend separate mixtures when feeding).
ℹ️ You can see the response on the plants after one day --> updated photos
ℹ️ Later this week : The plants eating like beasts, watering almost every day,
Buds progressing smoothly, Smells too and the canopy is pretty good in this (0.80m ×0.80m ×1.60m tent size) we are impressed with transpiration rate, game changer the humidifier present.

Day 40 from seed ( 3 in flower).
To sat they had a slow start these BlackBerry are surging ahead now. Only # 2 seems to be smaller now. The pale # 3 is still gaining size with no signs of stopping at all, she has a lot of sites around her that need a pin down now they are long enough to reach pot edge.

Las hojas mas viejas se pusieron amarillas, creo que puede haber algún problema en las raíces y/o falta de potasio. Aumenté las dosis de PK.

Growing LSD25 in a very small space of 5" x 5" x 10". Plant is to grow it discreetly and get single cola weighing 5-7grams at least.

Thanks to Royal Queen Seeds for the gratis.
Smoked this in Amsterdam in June and it was the best high I'd had in my life. Hoping RQS genetics are up to scratch - they usually are - and I get a similar effect.

DAY 71 F: Well a day overdue for the update but I have been a busy fellow in the real world.
The Girls scout cookies have dried enough to be considered for jarring. They have finished so perfectly and so damn tacky too. They smell of sweet candy after a lollipop lick. So nice. I have been taking samples the past week of so and drying them . temptation won.lol
Idont expect a huge yield from their size but the quality is bang on the money.
The Amnesia haze ladies are so so close now . They are rock somid still and have really packed the trichs on , a little swelling has been noticable but not the second flush of pistils I was hoping for.
#1 and 2 are going to be left until day 77 at least , so another week but the #3 lady has got to go into the dark period now I think. She was the girl I confused as a gsc too so had her dragon force very early in that respect. Seeing how faded out she has got during the last week has helped drive the decision to get her out now. She will be in the dark for 48 hours then trimmed for drying. They will all be fed just water now to use up the remaining nutes in the pots to the end.
The critical cheese is in mid flush of her newest pistils and thankfully is swelling nicely due to that fact. She has a really fuel/ nail polish heavy aroma at present but I can smell the sweet tang too. She looks like her yield could be a good one for what looked like a gangly specimen for the past 12 weeks. Lol . One of criticals finest qualities I think.
All in all a good week for the ladies if not a calm one. Let's see what next week brings. Be safe and well growmies.

Trying flawless finish for the first time, hoping it will help with this rushed flowering stage.
Really unfortunate to have to cut this one short, but some things in life are out of our control...
Anyway, harvest is currently curing. Check out the results and leave a like/comment cos I'm always looking for constructive criticism!

Auto Purple Hulk Auto by MSNL Outside
👉Sponsored Grow👈
W3V3
7/6- 7/12
I decided to grow Purple Hulk outside as MSNL indicated that it has a higher resistance to humidity than White LSD so I’m switching my plan. Cayenne came to inspect to see if the plant was big enough to go outside. In making the determination he snipped the tips and Ripley came and gave manger approval.
I’ve changed the grow from inside to outside so hopefully the statistics reflect the change.
I am giving water only for this grow unless deficiencies are noted since Supersoil is in my base mix. I will add Green Sensation during the flower phase.
As always, thank you all for stopping by, for the likes and most of all growers, love and support.
Stay green, growers love 💚🌿

Was facing some difficulty when it came to lighting (what brand, wattage, output range, full spectrum etc.) Did a watering today with a mix of Epsom salt & purified water which was the 1st nutrient mixture since my ladies been in the soil. A couple of changes made since I've joined GD is I changed the distance of lights to plant (was @ 14-18 now 20-24 inches away thanks for that folks) lighting schedule is still on a 18/6hr. Another trick I choose was the water used...it's either rain water or artesian water both help eliminate unwanted pH unbalance. This is my 1st grow and Im going to post more photos of the entire setup. If you guys&gala have any other helpful tips for a better grow lmk. I also wanted to do a LST on my autos but not quite sure when to do, they're currently coming out of week 2 into week 3 vegg mode. Every tip and hint helps so let em fly.
