Week 2 of flowering was all about maintaining a healthy stretch while continuing to shape the canopy underneath the SCROG net. 🌸 Candy Hustle responded incredibly well throughout the week, showing vigorous vertical growth and filling more and more of the available screen every single day. 🚀🌿 The ongoing heat wave continued to make climate control challenging. Temperatures stayed around 28°C with 60% relative humidity, and despite additional efforts it simply wasn't possible to lower either value any further. 🌡️💧 Fortunately, Candy Hustle seemed to thrive under these conditions, showing no signs of heat stress while maintaining strong daily growth and excellent leaf posture. ☀️💚 This week the plant received one feeding of Orgatrex and one application of Green House Bio Enhancer, alongside RO water with CalMag. 💧🌱 The biological activity in the soil continues to develop nicely, and the plant appears to be making excellent use of the nutrients available in the BioTabs system. Training remained the primary focus throughout the week.🌱 Every few days the main branches were tucked back underneath the SCROG net to keep the canopy as level as possible while encouraging more secondary shoots to reach the light. The screen is now filling very evenly, creating a strong foundation for the coming flowering weeks. 🌿✨ Only a very light defoliation was performed. ✂️ I removed a few of the lowest leaves along with several fan leaves that were shading developing shoots underneath the canopy. This opened up airflow and allowed more light to reach the future bud sites without stressing the plant unnecessarily. 🍃 The slight discoloration on some of the older leaves is still a leftover from the nutrient imbalance experienced during the previous week rather than a new issue. Encouragingly, all new growth is coming in healthy, vibrant and free of deficiencies, confirming that the plant has recovered well. 💪💚 Overall, this was another excellent week. 🌸 Candy Hustle continues stretching exactly as hoped, the canopy is becoming increasingly even, and the SCROG is filling nicely. With the first flower sites now developing across every branch, the coming weeks should shift the focus from stretch to bud production. 🚀🔥 Environment 🌡️ Temperature: 28°C 💧 Humidity: 60% 💡 Light: 50% (~800 PPFD) 🌸 Stage: Flower Week 2 Water & Nutrients 💧 RO Water + CalMag 🌱 1× Orgatrex 1× Green House Bio Enhancer Training 🕸️ Continued SCROG training and daily branch tucking ✂️ Light defoliation (lower leaves and leaves shading developing shoots) 🌿 Canopy becoming increasingly even across the net

this lady has stayed very short but bushy , she is drinking the least out of the rest and bud production has been minimal so far , i gave her a light / last defoliation this week and she has already recovered , purely too open her up too the available light , i really do hope she very soon steps up a gear with bud production otherwise i dont think there will be very much on the scales at the end , again have had absolutely no issues with this plant at any stage and she certainly has had more than enough light on her too produce , so lets watch this space and see what she can do ,

📆 Semana 10 La fase final avanza con cogollos muy densos y bien formados, terminando de afinar su compactación y carga de resina. Los tricomas se mantienen mayoritariamente lechosos con aumento progresivo de ámbar, acercándose al punto óptimo de corte. El aroma gana intensidad y profundidad, definiendo su perfil final. La planta reduce su actividad y se centra en la maduración, mostrando un ligero consumo de reservas en hojas grandes. Cultivo estable y bien encaminado, entrando en las últimas dos semanas. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

LSD — Week 12 12/12 from seed. Late flower. Full expression. Quiet hands, heavy flowers. This is the stage where the grow starts asking less from us — and more from our patience. By now, most of the work is already done. Structure is built. Feeding has done its job. Environment has stayed stable. Roots have carried the weight. And now the plant is doing what it was always meant to do: Finish. This is not the week for chasing numbers. Not the week for aggressive changes. Not the week for “fixing” what clearly isn’t broken. This is the week for restraint. For observation. For letting the plant complete the final chapter on its own terms. And LSD is doing exactly that. ⸻ Quick recap — how we got here This run was never about force. It was about rhythm. From the start, LSD showed what stable genetics + stable conditions can do when they’re allowed to work without interruption. No dramatic swings. No constant corrections. No overhandling. No chasing deficiencies that weren’t there. No feeding for ego. Just consistent inputs, controlled environment, steady root-zone conditions, and enough discipline to leave healthy plants alone. That’s what built this finish. Now, in week 12, we’re seeing the result of every quiet decision made weeks ago: * strong vertical structure * dense flower stacking * steady resin production * proper late-flower fade * increasing floral mass * and a plant that is still focused on ripening, not surviving That matters. Because this stage is no longer about growth. It is about conversion. The plant is no longer trying to become bigger. It is trying to become heavier, louder, stickier, and more chemically complete. And it shows. ⸻ Late flower, properly explained This is one of the most misunderstood stages in the cycle. To newer growers, this phase can look confusing. Leaves begin to fade. White hairs begin to darken. Growth appears slower. The plant drinks differently. Some leaves curl. Some flowers swell unevenly. The plant looks “older.” And that is exactly what should be happening. This is not decline. This is maturation. Late flower is the point where the plant shifts energy away from expansion and into completion. That means: * less vertical push * less fresh green growth * slower water demand * increased resin output * calyx swelling * terpene maturation * pistil oxidation * nutrient drawdown from stored reserves The plant is not slowing down because something is wrong. It is slowing down because it is finishing correctly. ⸻ Trichomes — what they are, and what they are not This is where the real story is now. Trichomes are not “frost.” They are not cosmetic sparkle. They are not just visual proof that a plant “looks strong.” And they are definitely not just sugar. Trichomes are glandular resin heads — microscopic biochemical factories built by the plant. Their job is protection. They exist to defend the flower from: * UV stress * heat * dehydration * pests * fungal pressure * environmental stress And inside those tiny resin glands is where the plant stores much of what we care about most: * cannabinoids * terpenes * flavonoids * volatile compounds * aromatic oils So when we say a plant is “getting frosty,” what we actually mean is: The plant is reaching peak resin production and chemical expression. That frost is chemistry made visible. And right now, LSD is deep in that phase. The resin is no longer just forming. It is maturing. That distinction matters. Early trichomes are mostly clear — immature, still developing, not yet fully expressed. Then they move cloudy/milky — peak cannabinoid development, strongest active expression. Then amber begins — oxidation, degradation, and chemical transition into later-stage ripeness. This is why trichomes matter more than pistils. More than fan leaves. More than fade. Because trichomes tell you what the flower is doing chemically — not just visually. And right now, these plants are no longer building resin. They are finishing it. ⸻ The “curl” in the leaves One of the easiest late-flower details to misread. At this stage, some sugar leaves begin to curl, claw, or fold inward around the flower. New growers often panic here. But in late flower, this is often not a feeding issue. It is not always heat. It is not automatically toxicity. Sometimes, very simply: There is just too much flower and too much resin sitting on too little leaf. At this point the plant is carrying weight, stacking density, and coating nearby leaf tissue in resin so heavily that those small leaves begin to tighten, curl, and fold into the flower. It is a late-stage pressure response. Part mechanical. Part environmental. Part genetic. Very often normal. Context matters. And in this context — dense tops, heavy trichome load, stable temps, no major stress signals — this reads like maturity, not trouble. ⸻ Pistils — why the white hairs are changing This is another classic late-flower marker. Those white hairs are pistils. Early on, they emerge bright white as the flower actively builds and reaches. As the flower matures, those pistils begin to: * darken * curl inward * oxidize * retract into swollen calyx tissue That change from white to orange/brown is not the plant “dying.” It is the flower aging into ripeness. Fresh white pistils usually signal active new flower development. Darkened pistils usually signal that part of the flower is maturing and beginning to finish. This is why late flower often shows both at once: * older pistils darkening * newer pistils still pushing That is normal. Flowers do not ripen all at once. They ripen in layers. And that’s exactly what we’re seeing now. ⸻ Feeding — why less is doing more This is the point where overfeeding does more harm than underfeeding. The plant no longer needs to be pushed. It needs to be allowed to finish. Right now the feed is still simple, controlled, and appropriate: * Pure Zym * Sugar Royal * CalMag Pro * Terra Bloom * Power Buds * Green Sensation Nothing excessive. Nothing chaotic. No late-game bottle collecting. No panic additives. Just enough to support: * final bulking * resin maturity * metabolic efficiency * clean finish That’s the right move here. And yes — next week is likely the point where feedings begin to step down or stop entirely. Not because the plant is starving. Because the plant is done demanding. That’s the difference. Late flower feeding is not about force-feeding weight. It is about supporting the final metabolic steps without leaving excess behind. The closer we get to harvest, the less the plant needs to be fed — and the more it needs to be left alone. ⸻ Environment — why nothing is changing This room is still stable. And stable is exactly what late flower wants. * 26°C day * 18°C night * 60% RH * ~21°C root zone * ~18°C solution * 12/12 unchanged * CO₂ stable * watering controlled And most importantly: The plants clearly like it. So we do not change what is working just because we are close to harvest. Late flower is not the time to start experimenting. Not the time to suddenly drop temperatures. Not the time to force stress. Not the time to chase color. Not the time to “improve” a stable room. Consistency is what got the plants here. Consistency is what finishes them properly. ⸻ Weight gain — where the real growth is now The plant is not stretching anymore. But it is absolutely still growing. Just differently. This is density growth now. Mass growth. Calyx stacking. Internal swelling. Resin thickening. Water redistribution. Final weight. This is where flowers stop looking bigger every day — but start feeling heavier every day. That is late flower. Less visible movement. More invisible gain. And this is where growers who harvest too early lose the most. Not because the plant looked unfinished. Because the final weight had not landed yet. That weight is landing now. ⸻ What to expect next week Next week is likely transition week. Not dramatic. Not aggressive. Just the beginning of the final slowdown. Expect: * less water demand * slower daily movement * more pistil darkening * more calyx swelling * heavier tops * continued fade * trichomes shifting deeper into maturity * feed reduction or full stop approaching This is the point where observation becomes more important than intervention. The job next week is simple: Watch closely. Touch less. Finish clean. ⸻ Final thoughts This is one of the most beautiful parts of the cycle. Not because it is explosive. Because it is precise. This is where good structure becomes good flower. Where patience becomes weight. Where resin becomes chemistry. Where restraint becomes quality. LSD is no longer trying to impress. It is trying to finish. And it is doing that exactly right.

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.

La pequeña banana 🍌está mostrando sintomas de quemaduras en sus hojas. Probablemente no este asimilando bien esta cantidad de nutrientes y hemos realizado un lavando de raices para bajar los ppm y restaurar sus valores a 800ppm. Veremos como avanza las proximas semanas 😉

This week Orion F1 LIQUID NUTRIENTS has not made much progress, the buds are beginning to build, and vertical growth has pretty much stopped at this stage. Here is what I did this week. 14.7.25: I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4, no nutrients. PH: 6.4 PPM: 363. 15.7.25: I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 5.9 containing the following nutrients; 💜 1/2 TSP Cal-Mag 💜 1/2 TSP Mega Crop Part A PH: 5.9 PPM: 1510 16.7.25: I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 containing; 💜 1+1/4 TSP Sea K(elp) PH: 6.5 PPM: 630. Thanks for checking out my diary this week, and hanging out in the comments 💚🙌🌱😊🍃✌️💚

The girls are growing beautifully! 🌱 I’ve decided to leave them completely untouched this run — no LST, no topping, nothing. Just letting them do their thing naturally. They seem to be loving the conditions and are responding with healthy, vigorous growth. Sometimes less is more! 😉

d14 Se las ve más pobladas, parece que no les ha causado mucho estrés por lo que han continuado creciendo y lo que yo quería, ahora las ramas laterales, reciben mejor la luz y están creciendo bien. Tienen buena estructura la mayoría, son bastante simétricas. Semillas a granel y ya veis la calidad que tienen, no son super estables porque no se parecen tanto entre ellas, pero no son malos ejemplares, en cuanto a estructura. Tenemos las plantas del fondo, la zona donde está dando el ventilador, y me he dado cuenta que esas plantas tienen algunas hojas medio amarillas y blanditas, parece ser que se han creado alguna bolsa de humedad, necesitaré un ventilador más para que no pasen estas cosas. También he mirado un poco algunas plantas y tienen lo que viene a ser la primera rama satélite, pues es muy fina y no ha crecido en altura para poder recibir luz, por lo tanto se cortarán estas ramas.ç PD: Si se ve una semilla germinada en una maceta, es una 1024 que se quedo en la tierra y parece que le cuesta mucho, pero que nunca se rinde. d15 Algunas tienen un callo bastante gordo en la unión de las ramas satélite. Se han cortado las ramas de abajo del todo, primeras satélite de algunas plantas ya que no les da la luz y no nos van a hacer falta.

Che dire! Una.delle.mie preferite in growbox! Sta crescendo veramente bene a mio preavviso! I rami sono veramente spessi e si preannuncia veramente una fioritura esplosiva secondo me! Molto buoni anche i nutrienti di BAC sotto stretta concessione del sig.fritz che volevo ringraziare veramente molto per avermi fornito i prodotti adatti per crescere al meglio le mie piante! Volevo anche ringraziare i ragazzi di Fast buds sempre per i splendidi "fagioli"! Queste genetiche autofiorenti sono veramente da urlo! Al prossimo aggiornamento che si preannuncia veramente, veramente di oro!

Day 83: After being in the dark for like 4-7 days, they where ready to harvest. All plants getting cut by the machine, big buds are cut by hand. I never weight wet buds because that doesnt make any sence. I will update soon on how much it is dry weight. My friend helped me with the harvest since it takes many hours of work. I have many buds that are as big or bigger as my hand. Quallity so far looks promising even thought there are shitty buds as well, but thats normal and oke. They have been cut freshly so I won't lose much weight when cutting. This will happen when cutting dry buds. The remaining small leafs on the wet buds will dry in with the buds and will be barely visible. Thanks @Fastbuds for sponsering the seeds. It was a really hard thought to make a diary about it while having more then 100 other strain plants. So both diaries look almost the same now. Ill hope you guys liked my grow and that we can go bigger in the future, so that i can make a , single strain,better and full diary about it. More info soon.

These is a project in the we try (test) tge products of our sponsors to see how good they genetics are, for example we have know 6 seeds banks on these round. Sweetseeds with the dark devil auto have break the time record for seed on the ground , 20 hours , only these tine have the seeds from sweetseeds on the soil and they just jump out to 2 cm , simple amazing
