Journal de Culture : Frost 1 – "Dora" (Fin de Floraison & Passage au Rinçage) ​Génétique : Frostbanger (F2 Perso) | Système : Autopot 20L ​📣 Remerciements Un immense merci à toutes les personnes qui suivent ce journal depuis le début ! Un merci tout particulier à @MIA_BIOTABS et à Mrs_Larimar pour leurs précieux conseils et leur accompagnement. Merci à tous pour votre soutien ! 🛠️ Configuration Technique & Climat ​Éclairage : Lumatek ATS 300W Pro (réglé à 100% depuis hier) ☀️ (Plein régime pour la phase finale !) ​Distance lampe/canopée : 50 cm ​Climat : Jour : 25°C / Nuit : 21°C ​Humidité (HR) : Contrôlée via déshumidificateur ​Tente : 1m80 de hauteur ​📅Évolution & Entretien : Trichomes laiteux, structure en épi de blé et top départ du rinçage ​Morphologie et état des fleurs : Hauteur : Se maintient à 84 cm (la structure est définitivement figée, toute l'énergie va dans la maturation). Aspect des têtes : Les bourgeons sont gros, denses, bien verts et compacts. Ils promettent d'être très lourds sur la balance. La structure des fleurs évolue de manière très esthétique en "épis de blé", les calices se gonflent et s'empilant les uns sur les autres. Résine et trichomes : Les trichomes sont désormais bien laiteux au microscope. Le givre de résine enveloppe superbement les bourgeons et les petites feuilles de sucre. 💦 Nutrition & Gestion de l'eau Hier (Dernier repas) : Application du tout dernier apport de Bio PK 5-8 (Biotabs). Dora a reçu son ultime boost de phosphore et de potassium pour verrouiller la fin du gonflement. ​Aujourd'hui (Transition Rinçage) : Coupure définitive de l'arrivée d'eau de l'Autopot. ​Stratégie : Je passe effectivement en mode manuel pour un rinçage de 14 jours. L'objectif est maintenant de pousser la plante à puiser dans ses dernières réserves, à consommer les nutriments stockés et à déclencher doucement sa sénescence à l'eau claire pour obtenir une herbe au goût le plus pur possible. ​Le travail de maturation final commence sous les 300W à 100%. Dora est parée pour ses deux dernières semaines de vie à l'eau claire ! ​À bientôt pour la suite et les prochaines étapes avant le cut !

LSD Zamnesia Tripping 🙂 | Final Report — Cure, Smoke Review & Closing The Chapter Well… Here we are. The final chapter of this LSD journey. And honestly, after everything: * from seed, * to flower, * to harvest, * to drying, * to trimming, * to washing, * to temple balls, * to curing, * to finally sitting down peacefully and actually enjoying the medicine… …I can honestly say this run became something much bigger than just “growing weed.” This became a full experience. A full learning process. A full journey. And before diving into the smoke review itself, let’s do one final recap for everyone arriving here for the first time. These girls were grown under 12/12 from seed from the very beginning. No long vegetative stage. Very little training. Almost no aggressive manipulation. Mostly allowing the genetics to express themselves naturally while we simply guided the environment around them. And throughout the entire run, these plants surprised us constantly. Huge central flower development. Massive stacking. Incredible resin production. Beautiful terpene expression. And honestly… some very unexpected structure for indica-leaning genetics. This harvest was divided across several reports because there was simply too much happening to compress everything into one single update. We wanted to properly document: * harvest, * drying, * trimming, * curing, * fresh frozen preparation, * washing, * temple ball production, * extraction evolution, * and finally the smoke review itself. GrowDiaries limits the amount of files we can upload per update, so instead of rushing through everything quickly, we decided to slow down and explain the process properly week by week. And honestly? I’m very happy we did. Because now we can finally close this chapter understanding not only how these girls grew… …but how they evolved. And evolution is honestly the perfect word here. The flowers themselves cured for well over a month, some even approaching two months now. And during that time, the transformation became beautiful. The aroma deepened. The sharp greener notes disappeared. The smoke softened dramatically. And the terpene profile became something honestly very difficult to describe perfectly with words. To me personally? This smells like: * earthy sourness, * soft skunk, * herbal spice, * and a gentle diesel layer hiding underneath everything. Not aggressive diesel. Not overpowering fuel. More like an old-school soft diesel wrapped inside earthy sweetness and skunky herbal notes. And somehow… despite not being truly sweet… it still feels sweet. One of those terpene profiles that almost tricks your brain. The smoke itself became incredibly smooth. Very soft inhale. Very soft exhale. Dense smoke without becoming harsh. And one thing I really appreciated: the inhale and exhale remain surprisingly similar. Sometimes flowers smell incredible in the jar but lose complexity during combustion. This one did not. The flavor stays present throughout the entire experience. Now about the effects… Despite the name LSD, I personally would not describe this as psychedelic medicine. At least not in the “seeing colors and melting walls” kind of way 😄 To me, this is euphoric medicine. Social medicine. Happy medicine. The kind that: * makes conversations flow, * makes music feel warmer, * makes nature feel beautiful, * makes food taste amazing, * makes you laugh more, * makes you relax without disconnecting from yourself. This is the kind of medicine I would happily enjoy: * during a beach walk, * with friends at dinner, * during a peaceful afternoon, * listening to music, * creating art, * talking for hours, * or simply enjoying life slowly. Very balanced. Relaxing without becoming sedative. Strong without becoming overwhelming. And honestly? Very emotionally comfortable medicine. No paranoia. No anxiety. No mental heaviness. No unpleasant race. Just calm, warm, euphoric relaxation. A really beautiful balance. Now let’s talk about the extraction side of this run… Because these girls absolutely shined there too. And honestly? They washed beautifully. The fresh frozen material produced incredible resin quality and gave us one of the most satisfying parts of this entire journey. Everything regarding: * freezing, * washing, * ice water extraction, * collection, * freeze drying, * pressing, * temple ball formation, * and curing… was explained in detail in previous reports for anyone curious about the full process. But now that some curing time has passed… something magical started happening. The temple balls evolved. And this is where hash becomes truly fascinating. The hash you are seeing now looks completely different from the fresh temple balls shown previously because the compounds inside are evolving over time. And that evolution is natural. At first, freshly pressed hash is often: * smoother, * more uniform, * more elastic, * sometimes shinier. But during curing: * oils begin migrating, * terpene fractions separate and recombine, * cannabinoids continue evolving, * moisture stabilizes, * oxidation slowly changes color and texture, * crystalline structures begin appearing, * and the entire resin starts transforming internally. That sandy crystalline texture appearing inside the cured hash? That is part of the evolution process. And honestly… it is beautiful to observe. The hash almost begins looking alive. Changing week after week. Softening internally while crystallizing externally in some areas. Developing complexity. Developing depth. Developing personality. This is why traditional hash makers allow temple balls to age for months or even years. Good hash is not rushed. And the smoke? Absolutely beautiful. The small sample we opened after roughly 15–20 days of curing already showed: * full melt behavior, * deep flavor, * rich oily smoke, * long-lasting taste, * and incredibly smooth combustion. The rest now remains vacuum sealed for long-term aging. And honestly? I cannot wait to revisit it months from now. Final dry flower numbers for the LSD girls: * 287g dry flower * 107.3g dry flower Final total: 🌱 394.3 grams dry flower And that does not even include: * the fresh frozen extraction material, * temple balls, * finger hash, * trim-bin collection, * or future cured resin evolution. For a 12/12-from-seed run with minimal intervention… I’m honestly very happy with these results. We also have to talk about Grove Bags for a moment because they genuinely made curing extremely easy and consistent during this process. For anyone unfamiliar: Grove Bags are designed to help stabilize humidity exchange naturally while reducing the need for constant burping and jar management. Do they replace proper drying? Absolutely not. Nothing replaces a proper dry. But once the flowers are dried correctly, they help maintain an incredibly stable curing environment with much less stress and handling. And honestly? For larger harvests especially, they become incredibly practical. Now… before closing this chapter completely… Thank you. To Zamnesia for the genetics, the Bubbleator, the support, and the trust. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To the LEDs. To Grove Bags. To the gear involved. To GrowDiaries. To the entire community. To the longtime followers and OGs. To the new curious visitors. To the supporters. To the skeptics. To the silent viewers. To the people who stayed since the beginning. To the people who discovered this journey halfway through. To the lovers. And yes… even the haters 😄 If someone spent even a few moments here sharing this experience with us, then they deserve gratitude too. And of course… special thanks to Mr. Baggy for staying with us through every single stage of the madness 😄 From trimming sessions… to washing… to temple balls… to studio chaos… to hash curing… the fluffy supervisor never abandoned his post. And even though this chapter closes here… the journey itself continues. We may return months from now to revisit the cured hash evolution and see how time transforms it further. And meanwhile? New runs are already beginning. New genetics. New experiments. New lessons. New mistakes. New beautiful moments. So if anyone enjoyed this journey… You are always welcome here.

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.

Questa ztrawberry lo caricata sul diario in ritardo.ha cominciato già la prima settima di fioritura.. boh

En esta nueva semana he trasplantado a macetas de 10 litros a 2 plantitas que estaban en macetas de 3L . La que he planteado a tierra ha tenido un crecimiento significativo de una semana a otra.

Red Pure CBD - Growing pretty well, I'm thinking I have some deficiencies in these now that that have properly started pushing flowers out fast, I've dosed with PK13/14 and CalMag. We are getting some colour showing too. Pink Kush CBD - Even the runt plant is growing though not as well as its neighbour or the Red Pure plants, lots of colours are coming out on the runt, colours on the better plant too but not quite as prominent. Fingers crossed the PK and CalMag will sort the Red Pure leaves.

Week 1 of flower is here, gave the lady some compost tea and did some

In fact, this is one of the most beautiful plants I have ever seen - it's fantastic :) FastBuds gorilla cookies auto with a small space, hot temperatures copes perfectly :) good luck to everyone :).

week 6, i removed all the Internodes on the 5.5(I will mark the photos which is which) and lst on the 3 gallon pot(now four main colas). Temperature is the current temp outside, I do it by day just cause. There was a big storm and my plants loved it surprisingly, so tomorrow I’m going to drench the 3 gallon,which is dry again, in water to see if any more surge in growth happens. 3 gallon shows heavy prefñower I guess with pistils and the 5 gallon is alright

I switched the girls aside. wedding crasher on the right and el patron on the left. The two in front are the autos 😏

This is probably going to be very haphazard and added to only as new progress is made. working on some selfing, crossing and other misc. breeding projects of various strains. This "week" I am showing the reversal plants in their early stages of pollen sac development. I have reversed plants successfully in the past but really wanted to try a full dedicated project rather than just pollen chucking. The first wave of plants are all pollen donors. Clones and sprouts of the mothers to receive the pollen are in my veg tent waiting to be flipped. Once these mature they will be moved to a separate tent and pollen harvested to be added to the flowering girls. So far all plants have taken to the reversal. I am using STS spray I made myself. I started spraying them one week before flipping to flower and then every 3-5 days until I saw sacs forming. That seems to be the sweet spot for me. YMMV

Good progress and defiency maintained

After arguing in my head for w coupe of days I decided to take the scrog off and give the plants a thorough Tie down to try and beef them up as much as possible . It was a great success in my opinion ,within an week the plants have almost covered twice the area I once had , today I flipped them into 24hr darkness to try usher the flower phase .....12/12 from here baby 😂..

She's looking so beautiful,very nice strain to grow for sure,I'm trying to give her a good shape before flowering starts. I add organic liquids nuts only once a week and looks like she loves it,let's keep up the work!! 💚💛❤️🌱🤩

*ADVISE NEEDED* The day before yesterday I discovered a huge error in my system. I placed filter material in the feed-throughs of the breeding boxes. This is to prevent the roots from growing together over time. However, what I caused with that is very difficult to explain. The bottom line is that the distribution of food and circulation was actually not good at all. This also explained the differences in the water temperature, but also PH and EC values. That is now completely under control because it now runs stably for 2 days. However, you can see that the records have had a bad start. I am thinking about starting over. Week 3. Week 2 was looking for the correct settings for my system. I found out that the temperature in the bins is quite different. When I set the water chiller to 19 degrees, it all flows fine into the first container. There it rises about 0.5 degrees per bin. The margin of the chiller is about 1 degrees, causing too many fluctuations in the system, with tray 1 becoming too cold and the last one too cold. I solved this by shielding the box at the inlet of the tent with heat-protective foil. I also put a fan on the water chiller. If that catches on, the entire loft heats up, whith more fluctiations. However, I have enough space to measure very precisely and I am getting more and more control. I think the brown leaves were the cause of much too hot water. Since I have the water temperature under control, I see that the new leaves are growing nicely. Moreover, since yesterday (13-5) I received the nutrition. 10 days late. I just finish the root scheme I think. That is still 3 days a 70 mm per day combined with BioBizz Heaven. I tried to take some pictures of the roots and some close ups. I hold the lid with my left hand and with my right hand I try to take a picture zoomed in (max). While the wind makes the roots dance past my lens😵 Something different than usual ... Hope you like it. If you see something that needs to be addressed, let us know. It is my first breeding so there will undoubtedly go wrong. This week I also connected the water reservoir with which I can flush the entire system at once. With this I also control the Ph in the system. Will post photos soon.

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

This week I did a fair amount of work on my grow. I did a bit of defoliation and spent some time tying down branches to shape the canopy. My goal is to get buds growing wall to wall! I can't wait to see the results of my efforts.

Seemed like a good point to flower... i put a ton of slack in the ties in preparation for the stretch, i'm hoping the small split will close during this time ...gave first splash of bloom nutes with a small dash of cal-mag to be proactive ... i think she'll finish with a beautiful shape :)
