Day 40 ( 3 in flower) : These girls are amazing and deserve some star status for their growing ability. From the off these girls have given full attention to their growth , even the 2 girls that were suffering under the intensity of the lights ( moved to 24 "now.) It gave 2 of them tip curl like too much Nitrogen does so had me head scratching on the new Mega crop and dosages. Now figured they are continuing to outgrow most of the other strains running. They have been easy to work with on their lst and pin down and far extend the pots edges. #1 The living organic girl is loving her spot in the room and paying me back in her spurts of growth. # needs a little thinning out but happy .#3 Is a willing bush in the making but a good defol will open her up.

🍪🌿 Animal Mints Week 7 From Seed | Week 3 Flower (12/12 From Birth) Yes — these girls have never seen veg lighting. They were born into 12/12. They have no idea what 18/6 even means. And that changes everything about how we read them. ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — For Anyone Arriving Now • 12/12 from seed • Hand-watered • Organic + mineral approach • Multi-layer LED system: • Over-canopy • Inner-canopy • Under-canopy (almost fully active) • CO₂: ~909 ppm • PPFD range: ~850–1200 (height dependent) These are not low-intensity plants. The room is tuned for consumption. And not every plant is ready to eat like this. These are. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Snapshot • 🌡️ Day temp: ~28°C • 💧 RH: ~65% • ⚡ EC: ~2.9 • pH: ~6.5 • 💨 CO₂: ~909 ppm Now let’s address the elephant in the room: “28°C in flower? Isn’t that hot?” Only if you misunderstand LED physics. ⸻ 🍃 Leaf VPD — Not Room VPD Under LED lighting: • Minimal infrared radiation • Leaf surface temperature runs 2–4°C below ambient • So while room reads 28°C, leaf surface likely sits 24–26°C With RH at 65%: 👉 Leaf VPD lands right in early–mid flower comfort zone. Signs that confirm it: • No tacoing • No stress curl • No bleaching • No claw • Strong praying • Fast metabolism • Uniform green tone We guide with room readings. But we decide based on leaf behavior. And the leaves are calm. ⸻ 💧 EC 2.9 — Why So High? Because the room demands it. Let’s break it down: • High PPFD (850–1200) • Elevated CO₂ (~900 ppm) • High transpiration window (correct VPD) • Strong stretch phase (week 3 flower from seed) This creates a high-consumption environment. EC isn’t high because we want it high. It’s high because: • They are eating. • They are stretching. • They are metabolically active. If EC were too high, we would see: • Uniform tip burn • Dark clawing • Slowed stretch • Salt stress patterns We are not seeing that. We are seeing appetite. Important note for readers: Not all plants should be fed like this. You must read your room before copying numbers. ⸻ ✂️ Defoliation — Light Haircut, Not Surgery They didn’t desperately need it. But: • The room was being reset • Airflow harmonization matters • Light penetration symmetry matters • Under-canopy exposure matters From the timeline: Before • Healthy canopy • Some interior shading • Early bud sites forming After • Clean lower third • Clear interior airflow • Defined tops • Light pathways opened I didn’t strip. I refined. This is maintenance defoliation — not panic defoliation. ⸻ 🌱 Structural Observations Check the photos: • Internode spacing moderate • Tops stacking evenly • Pistil clusters forming • Stretch still active but controlled • Stems thickening in response to light intensity They are transitioning from architecture phase into production phase. Week 3 from seed-flower timing means: They are slightly developmentally behind traditional veg-then-flip plants. And that’s expected. ⸻ 🔬 Multi-Layer Lighting System — Why It Works We are not just blasting top light. We are: • Feeding tops from above • Feeding sides from inner canopy • Preparing lower bud sites with under-canopy This creates: • Even auxin redistribution • Less apical dominance • More balanced lower bud viability • Reduced larf development later When under-canopy fully activates? We’ll likely see lower sites tighten dramatically. ⸻ 📈 What To Expect Next Week Expect: • Continued vertical stretch (but slowing) • Clear bud site stacking • Increased water uptake • Slight calcium demand increase • Stem lignification Do Not Expect Yet: • Bud swelling • Dense calyx stacking • Heavy resin • Final terp expression We are still in early production. This is foundation week. ⸻ ❤️ Gratitude Section To: • The OGs following since day one • The silent readers learning quietly • The loud critics keeping us sharp • The lovers • The haters • The Grow Diaries community • The platform hosting this experiment • The sponsors supporting the journey • Every single person who clicks, reads, observes, questions This is more than growing. It’s documentation. It’s education. It’s transparency. And it’s respect for the plant. 📡 Please stay tuned they can try and take us down but we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@DOGDOGTHEDOCTOR 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 day 100 of bloom we are finally starting to get closer to the end

Day-1 put 41 blue dream seeds which i beleive are non gendered autos into pellets to grow as backups, I am primarily trying to grow a white widow autoflower from crop seed kings and 3 of a peyote strain unspecified gender and flowering style. Day-2 humidity and temperature are sitting at 98up to +100 and 23-31 degress celsius will be leaving top more open after about 6 today to lower humidity just wanted it cranked up for a day or so Day-3 things are looking good many seeds are starting to show taproots between a quarter inch and five eights of an inch popping through the bottom of the seeds. Day-4

Got some Neptune Rose and bloom water soluble feed. The color starting to come back. Definitely was a phosphorus issue. I’ll be checking Thricomes here in the next week or two for the Nana glue. The smell that I’m getting from it with the stem rub is funky, banana odor . The Hindu is definitely gonna take a little while longer, it’s still throwing tons of white hairs and stacking up .

Extrem starker Stretch, viele einzelne Äste die sich stärker nach oben kämpfen als andere.

Day 57 26/08/24 Monday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. No plagron products as noticed burning again. (I think I'll do a run using advanced. And Plagron. Just to see what's different. ) Showing great progress!! I did a little defoliation of lower two fans that started to turn in colour. Apart from that left them to it ✌️💚 Day 59 28/08/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today, 400ml with little to no run off. Day. 61 30/08/24 Friday Another feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with Plagron products. Picture and videos coming tonight 🤯👀✌️💚 Day 63 01/09/24 Sunday (End of week) De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with calmag.

Seedsman Seeds Germination Report - Run 01: The White OG Journey Kickoff to Germination: The Start of Something Great! Welcome to the beginning of this adventure with The White OG feminized seeds from Seedsman Seeds. Excitement is in the air as we’re searching for strong, resilient plants, and this journey has all the best tools and tips. Starting with five seeds, we’re aiming for a solid beginning and maximum potential. Let’s explore every step in detail to make this grow as robust as it can be! Germination Process: Tools of the Trade TheCannaKan: The Ultimate Germination Gadget I’m thrilled to share my love for TheCannaKan, a little germination wonder! This tool is essential for any grower who wants to start their seeds with precision and care. I noticed rapid results in just 24 hours, with the seeds showing signs of life. At about 32 hours, I transferred them to the Root Riots, which brings us to the next exciting stage. Why I Love TheCannaKan: • Quick Results: Seeds sprouted rapidly, minimizing wait time. • Consistency: Keeps moisture levels optimal for uniform germination. • User-Friendly: Simple yet effective for both new and experienced growers. Root Riots and Their Role in Root Development After sprouting, I placed the seedlings into Root Riot cubes under a dome. Root Riots are fantastic for stabilizing young plants, providing an airy and nutrient-friendly environment that promotes robust root growth from the start. Benefits of Root Riots: • Root Aeration: Soft yet structured, these cubes support root expansion. • Moisture Retention: Holds just the right amount of water for growing seedlings. • Enhanced Root Health: The cubes are ideal for preventing damping-off and ensuring healthy, white roots. Nutrients to Kickstart Growth: Aptus Holland Regulator and Startbooster To give the seedlings a perfect start, I added Aptus Holland’s Regulator and Startbooster (1ml/L each). This mix promotes early root and stem strength, giving seedlings the ability to absorb light and nutrients more efficiently. • Aptus Regulator: Enhances plant resilience, aids in nutrient absorption, and promotes early vitality. • Aptus Startbooster: Adds a balanced mix of growth hormones and nutrients that are ideal for the early stages, encouraging healthy roots and faster seedling growth. Light and Environment: Future of Grow FOG LED with TrolMaster Tent X Controller I’m using a Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 600W, but keeping it dimmed down to around 200 PPFD. This setting is controlled by the TrolMaster Tent X Controller to give the plants the perfect start without overwhelming them with intense light. Controlled lighting helps seedlings to develop without stress, encouraging healthy growth and internode spacing. Shoutouts: • Future of Grow LED: High-quality, efficient LED light that adapts well to seedling and veg stages. • TrolMaster Tent X Controller: Reliable and intuitive control over light, humidity, and more. Perfect for a hands-off, efficient environment setup. Observations: One Seedling Takes the Lead At the end of this germination stage, it looks like one seedling has emerged as the strongest, while the others may need a few more days. Patience and observation are key; some seeds naturally take a bit more time to sprout. I’ll keep monitoring these with hope, allowing each seedling its own rhythm. Grower’s Notes and Tips • Consistency Matters: Germination is all about steady conditions—consistent moisture, gentle nutrients, and stable lighting make all the difference. • Document Everything: Keeping a log of each step (like this one!) helps track growth patterns and provides valuable insights for future grows. • Stay Positive and Patient: Not every seed will sprout at the same rate. Trust the process and remember each plant is unique. Community Shoutouts Thank you to everyone who makes this process smoother and inspiring—TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Future of Grow, and Seedsman Seeds for amazing genetics and tools, as well as the growers’ community who share insights, tips, and encouragement along the way. Next Steps Now that we’re through germination, we’ll move into the early growth phase. I’ll keep documenting the lighting adjustments, nutrient changes, and growth patterns of each plant, especially that eager seedling leading the way!

WHATS NEW..? PRETTY MUCH NOTHING HAHA. TEMPERATURE IS NOW WAY MORE IDEAL AND BUDS SLOWLY START FORMING. ALSO THE SMELL STARTS TO GET STRONGER. KEEP ON GROWING, SMOKING & ENJOYING LIFE ☢️👽💨

What do you think about these first days? The humidity is not much stable but I’m planning to buy a humidifier in the next week.

Today July 2nd will mark Day 36 in flower. Took the defoliating real well. Now looking forward to see what it do with Open Seasme from FoxFarm. Didn’t use the Lotus. But other water feeding . I just use pure water but PH now 6.5 . No longer in Veg. Time to boom boom bloom . Let go growmies!!! :)

Day 43. Light is on max output, heat enormous and they RUN !!!! thought intensity will stop them a bit , but i think i do only worse ... We have +30 heatwave in UK, i live in attic , so for 4 more days everything will be out of control. Watered today. 6.3 phed water. I love simple and affordable Mars Hydro products, if you can cope with heat TSL2000 can do magic in your tent ! Will update after heat wave us over. Should be in 4 days back to +20 ;))) Day 45. They GROW !!!! Distance is insanly small, but i have 30 cm of space left, wont move light for a week, then i will try to have 20 cm at least again. Planing last top up, need two more waterings before it, so it should be on last day of this or first of next week. Thinking to take down all LST at that time, need pots to breath better, too thin fabric, they dont keep form. Day 47. Drink every two days !!! 4 liters goes to nothing !!! Huge, still streching, tops almost rubbing TS2000, heat 30 inside, humidity 65-68 ..... will need heavy clearing again !!! Most stacked Cookie i ever grew, fills in very nice !!! Happy Growing !!!!

This wee was all vegative two phase. On day 7 this week the two shorter plants were transitioning to generative one phase. These girls are so fast the phases come and go quickly. This Last week was raining or cloudy everyday. I had to switch to dry nutes because the soil is staying wet. Feeding liquid nutrient mix/teas isn't an option. I've found a few specs of PM on the one plant I didn't top. I treated with Arbor bio fungicide and it's clearing up. The other two are showing immunity so far and are receiving no treatment.The nutes are listed as ml/gallon of soil topdressed. After day 2 inspection I believe I ran the nutes a little hot. They should grow into them. Adding a second topdress of 800ml of coop poop 2-4-3 on day 6 this week. We got a big rain day 7 early morning. It washed that coop poop topdress in and really gave the plants a good green color.The one that didn't get topped is pushing 64" the others are about 57" so I used an average. I recommend topping but to keep that one from falling any further behind I let it grow without topping. The one that wasn't topped is being treated for powdery mildew with Arbor bio fungicide. It's helping the other two are still showing immunity and are further along in flower.

Girls went into flowering . Critical is looking a little better.

.😈💪🧑‍🌾🌱🌲☀️👌Hellriser Skunk’97 x Black Lebanon. Hi everyone 👋 for the smell 👃 this one gives off a smell of kaki 🍑on a fruity skunky background And slightly peppery👌.

Not a lot happened last week, just monitoring, feeding, and keeping everything in check while the girls did their thing. I did switch over to my finishing nutrients and have cut out calmag according to feeding chart I have been following. I think we are gettting pretty close to harvest though! The trichomes are starting to get a little milky. I am going to wait until about 30% amber to harvest though. I am getting super excited to finish this one and start my next run! 9/2 - The girls have been doing great and are starting to pack on the size and frost nicely! Nothing to do to them really except monitor and keep checking and making sure everything is running at an optimal level. The closer it gets I start to get a little nervous for the dry. I am prepared and have a plan, just hopefully I can get my dry set up as dialed in as I was able to get my grow tent. I will try to post more updates this week. Last week I had company from out of town, so it was difficult to get around to it. 9/5- Just continuing to monitor and check the trichomes, once about 25-30% turn amber I will be harvesting! They are starting to get pretty cloudy right now. When I did the res change yesterday, I switched to just root drip and full tilt and have started flushing, hopefully not too early, but im following my feeding chart. As always tips and recommendations always welcomed and appreciated! Thanks for checking out my diary!

🙏 Big thanks to Plagron and Zamnesia for putting on the Eternity Grow Cup 2025. This kind of platform means a lot to the community. The chance to push our grows, test out new techniques, and connect with other cultivators from all over has been inspiring. Appreciate the love and effort that went into making this event happen! Hope everyone enjoyed looking over my shoulder on this grow and best of luck to all participants! REVIEW - Runtz (fem., photo.) from Zamnesia: ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬜⬜ The seeds from Zamnesia germinated rapidly, rooted strongly, went wild in veg, and produced an ample amount of high-quality medicinal flower. The diary speaks for itself on that front so this space will be more of a phenotype review. The plants were labelled A, B, and C from left to right respectively in photos. A and B were the 'clasicaly-appearing' sativa-esque leaves while C was the more 'indica-appearing' phenotype. Although A and B appear the same qualitatively, they did produce substantially different amounts of flower (despite their DLI being near max out for the entire tent footprint without supplementing CO2, so I do not think just being in the middle attributed to this). Past their different yields, A and B also have vastly different profiles. A is a classic gelato/ice cream cooler/Z terps, and my personal favorite of the plants (wish I had taken a clone of this one instead). B is the most on point for what I think of with Runtz, classic Z terps but with a slight tropical/rotten/sweetness to it. C had the misfortune of being ready to chop a little earlier than the other girls so her profile is mostly just spicey kush now. I did observe intersex flower sites but given the entire context of the diary and how the plants performed, I have to assume it was user error. No pollination observed in any of the flowers, as zero additional intersex sites occurred. The distinction between A, B and C is what I would expect from a typical F1 cannabis seed. I do not enjoy growing from seed much but these girls were manageable. Add to that the relative stability of the genetics for a Runtz recreation, and well, these are good quality beans for a great price. Not only is Zamnesia responsive and available, their confidence speaks volumes. How many vendors would have an in-house Runtz, knowing how much of a genetic-gravity-well it is in, and be confident enough to let ~200 randos grow it and show it? REVIEW - Green Sensation from Plagron: ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬜⬜ I enjoyed using the green sensation, the NPK values on it make it versatile in application and a power-house in flower. I can't say I noticed anything better or dramatically improved, although comparing to Heavy 16 and asking for a marked improvement is big ask in my opinion. What I was able to do was seamlessly integrate the Green Sensation into my current routine. The additive stayed homogenous, was easily introduced into solutions with no adverse impact to the water contents or pH. Most importantly, the plants enjoyed the additive and it did accomplish the main goal of being able to wane off your primary line. In this respect, by using Green Sensation I was able to save resources by lowering my Heavy 16 inputs across the board approximately 50% and supplementing with Plagron's Green Sensation.

Nice harvest 🙌🙌 and a beautiful girl to watch throughout her life cycles
