Final Results & Conclusions – Harvest, Drying & Curing The grow is finally complete, and it’s time to look at the results. The main goal of this experiment was to compare natural growth vs LST on autoflowering plants, while also documenting two different trimming/drying approaches. Final Dry Weight Sour Jealousy Auto * LST: 44.9 g * Natural: 62.9 g Banana Purple Punch Auto * LST: 36.1 g * Natural: 51.6 g The results were surprisingly consistent across both strains. The naturally grown plants produced approximately 41% more flower than the LST plants on average, or, looking at it from the other direction, the LST plants produced around 29% less than their naturally grown counterparts. This suggests that, at least in this small experiment, LST did not provide a yield advantage with these autoflowers. In fact, the naturally grown plants produced considerably more. However, there are some important limitations. The sample size is extremely small, with only two plants per growing method. Individual phenotype and environmental variation can therefore have a significant impact on the results. There was also an important difference in pot size: the naturally grown Sour Jealousy was grown in an 18 L pot, while the other three plants were grown in 14 L pots. From this grow, combined with my experience from previous years, I continue to see a relationship between available root space and overall plant development: more substrate seems to give the plant more room to develop. The biggest advantage of LST was not yield, but plant structure and height control. The trained plants remained much shorter and more compact, making them considerably less conspicuous than the naturally grown plants. Drying Comparison I also experimented with two different trimming approaches. The two LST plants were wet trimmed, while the two naturally grown plants were dry trimmed. Throughout drying, I tried to maintain humidity between 55–65%. Temperature was unfortunately higher than ideal, staying around 26–28°C, as I didn’t have equipment to control it. Despite the less-than-ideal temperature, the aromas coming from both groups are very promising. At this stage, both drying methods have produced flowers with excellent fragrances. However, this comparison has an important limitation: because the LST plants were wet trimmed and the natural plants were dry trimmed, the two variables cannot be completely separated. Any differences in the final aroma or quality cannot be attributed exclusively to the drying method. For that reason, I’ll wait until the curing process is further along before making any conclusions. Final Thoughts This experiment gave me some interesting empirical evidence about LST on autoflowers. For my setup, natural growth clearly outperformed LST in terms of final weight, while LST offered a clear advantage in terms of plant size and canopy control. The sample size is obviously too small to draw definitive conclusions, so I’d really like to hear from other growers who have compared LST vs natural growth on autoflowering plants, especially when using the same genetics, pot size and environmental conditions. I’ll update this diary again in about a month, once the curing process is complete and I can compare the final aromas and tasting experience.

Hello everyone, This 8 week of vegetation, she started growing ans looks little bit better, but we have same problem. I have about 40-50 cm from light, and think to switch on 12/12 for flowering stage end of this week. What do you thin guys is it good idea or wait one more week?
Produce de Patty : GSC
Start of week 8 (day 50). Started the week off with a little recharge&water. I had to rig up some branch supports to compensate for compounding nugs. I'm pretty sure a pack of papers is a standard measurement? I've been struggling to get out of bed from knee pain (awaiting my 3rd surgery). And really not sleeping at all. Hopefully this lady will ripen early and give me some relief. Happy Gardening any suggestions or comments are appreciated 👴🏼🔥🖖✌️🙏🌱 ¤ End of week 8 and the garden is smelling great. I'm scheduled for knee surgery next Tuesday and will be down for an unseen amount of time. Happy Gardening

No problems this week, plants growing extremely well. I got a new TDS meter, but unfortunately, I was not able to set up a drip system yet. The only training I did was to defoliate the first true leaves and everything below that. DAY 17 - Nutes PH - 6.1 Solution Temp - 19.5 PPM-1340 Watering Volume per plant - 2L DAY 20 - Water PH - 6.04 Solution Temp - 19.2 PPM-570 Watering Volume per plant - 2.5L Plant B is about 14cm Height and Plant A is about 17 cm Height. One interesting thing that I'm seeing is the fact that Plant B continues to show signs of deformity. On the video, you can see that the right side is missing a node, this missing node corresponds to the deform leaf. Maybe they are related, Plant A was slightly bigger from the beginning, but the node development is bigger in Plant B.

🌸 End of Flowering Week 7 (D43–D49) → Entering Week 8 (D50) | Project WF We’ve officially closed Flowering Week 7 (Day 43 to Day 49) and are now entering Week 8 (Day 50) — the final and most critical stage where real quality and cleanliness are defined. This week was focused on root zone correction, EC reduction and preparing the plants for a clean and controlled finish, without forcing maturity or stressing the crop. 🌡️ Environmental Parameters (Week 7 avg) • Day temperature: 22–23.5 °C • Night temperature: 18–19 °C • Relative Humidity: 48–52 % • VPD: 1.30–1.45 kPa • PPFD: ~830–850 µmol/m²/s • CO₂: Ambient (~550–630 ppm) Stable conditions all week to keep metabolism active while avoiding unnecessary stress during late flowering. 💧 Irrigation & Feeding – Week 7 (Detailed) 📅 25/01 – Day 46 Total volume: 30 L (hand watered, stopping when plants drained) Recipe: • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra → 15 ml • Bio·Grow → 3 ml • Bio·Bloom → 120 ml • Top·Max → 24 ml • Bio·Heaven → 24 ml • Bud Candy → 36 ml • Atazyme → 30 ml Input values: • EC: ~0.98 mS • pH: 6.2 This irrigation initiated nutrient reduction and confirmed uneven salt accumulation between pots. 📅 29/01 – Day 49 Total volume: 50 L (high-volume strategic irrigation) Recipe: • Bio·Bloom → 200 ml (4 ml/L) • Top·Max → 50 ml (1 ml/L) • Bio·Heaven → 50 ml (1 ml/L) • Bud Candy → 50 ml (1 ml/L) • Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra → 15 ml (0.3 ml/L) • Atazyme → 40 ml (0.8 ml/L) Input values: • EC: ~0.78 mS • pH: 6.2 Drain EC readings (by pot): • Range: 2.1 – 5.6 mS • Confirmed salt accumulation now actively being released. This irrigation was a pre-cleaning step, not a final flush, keeping roots active while opening the substrate. 📊 Week 7 Irrigation Summary • Total water applied: ~80 L • Average: ~11.4 L / 24h (including strategic high-volume irrigation) 🌿 Plant Status – End of Week 7 • Controlled senescence has started naturally. • Strong anthocyanin expression (genetics + environment). • Buds still finishing density, not rushed. • Trichomes shifting from clear → cloudy, amber still minimal. • No signs of acute stress, lockout or stalled metabolism. 🎯 Week 8 Objectives (From Day 50) Week 8 is about precision, not force. • Final nutrient closure initiated. • Progressive root zone cleaning strategy: • Pre-flush irrigation • Single controlled Final Flush • Water-only irrigation • Dry-back before harvest • Maintain stable PPFD and VPD to preserve terpenes and resin quality. • Focus shifts from yield to clean finish, flavor and combustion quality. This is the phase where premium crops are truly defined. More final-stage data, close-ups and detailed content coming soon on Instagram. Open to collaborations and data-driven partnerships with brands focused on precision growing and premium results. 📸 @waffleterps

Here we are again Bros&Sis! During my first indoor grow with Bubblegum XL I've had took some cuts to keep them alive and have some good plants to play with and exploring a little more the vaste world of growing cannabis... Long story short, 5 of them has radicated (some with plain water technique, some in rockwool cube) and then I started to play with them and tested my chinese Meizhi R300W LED panel (real wattage is 136w) it was full of dust, so why not? 😎 Now, the plants. They are in good conditions, some are in the same pot by weeks now (soil and coco), and try to keep them alive, so maybe they shows sign of suffering. Except for the One: In the video you will see my REALLY HIGH SCIENTIFIC METHOD (😂) wich I use to choose the best clones that will goes directly under a Scrog net (i am a DIYer) to fill the entire area lighten by the panel, it's a bit ambitious, but it will be fun for sure! I choose that one because she is the only one that gives me really good vibes and shows me she is strong enough to pass through hst, crop, supercrop and so and so... even if my original intentions was to keep them as a bonsai mothers, I've decided that this project have priority! 10weeks old Bubblegum XL clone Pot 11lt NetPot Coco brick with mycos Canna Coco A+B Liquid silicon from Growth Technology- guys, this thing is magical, besides the great effects on the plants' roots and system, after a couple of apply the plants were much more flexible and resistant to mites (yes, they are still there, fu**inmotherfu**ers, but this time they will die. forever gone, bye!)- I will never stop to thank @Mr_Di for his precious tips😘Higly basic product, it will raise your solution's PH, so watch out! Let me know what you think about, mates! CIAO! 😀
Lemon Candy ( Exotic Seeds )
Flowering day 18 since time change to 12 / 12 h Hey guys :-) The ladies have recovered well from the cold thanks to the heating mat and have developed beautifully 👍. During the check today I saw that despite spraying neem oil 3 times, there are still a few trips :-( . Now I've ordered nematodes again specifically against trips for leaf and substrate. I will use that immediately 👍. Watering was done twice this week, each time with 1.3 l (nutrients see table above) Next week I will remove the lowermost shoots so that the energy goes into the upper buds. Fresh osmosis water was mixed with tap water and put into the 100 liter tank so that the water can stand and I'll have enough next week :-) Otherwise everything was cleaned. Have fun and stay healthy 💚🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.exoticseed.eu/de/hanfsamen/lemon-candy Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.
