Ok Blue toof is really doing great. She smells of sweet fruit, it is a very nice smell. Raised ppm to 680 she was fine at 600. Defoleated all the bottom. She sure showing her indica traits. The leaves are nice and fat. Her stem has gotten nice and fat also. It is the biggest of the bunch. I really like the shape and branches are also nice and fat. Hung the second light. So let the show go on.

In knapp einer Woche haben sich die beiden verdoppelt. Die Seifuku hat sich super vom Topping erholt, hat aber einen etwas groรŸen Abstand zwischen den Nodien. Die Lampe wurde von 80 cm auf 60 cm Abstand gesenkt, um so die Intensitรคt zu erhรถhen. Beide haben es gut vertragen, und nรคchste Woche wird sie weitere 10โ€“15 cm gesenkt, da ich wegen des Magnetdimmers nur in 20-%-Stufen dimmen kann. Bei der Sour Zoda wurde das erste Blattpaar entfernt, sodass die Seitentriebe nicht mehr verdeckt werden. Ich habe aber wohl das falsche gewรคhlt, weil das nรคchste Paar so schnell gewachsen ist, dass sie sofort wieder verdeckt waren. Die Sour Zoda wรคchst eher gedrungen im Vergleich zur Seifuku. Nach den Fotos wurden beide mit Wizzy's Pflanzengeflรผster (0,5 g auf 50 ml pro Pflanze) eingesprรผht. ---- In just under a week, both have doubled in size. The Seifuku has recovered really well from the topping but shows a somewhat large spacing between the nodes. The light was lowered from 80 cm to 60 cm to increase intensity. Both handled it well, and next week it will be lowered another 10โ€“15 cm, since with the magnetic dimmer I can only adjust in 20% steps. On the Sour Zoda, the first pair of leaves was removed so the side shoots wouldnโ€™t be shaded. But I probably chose the wrong pair, because the next set grew so quickly that they were shaded again right away. The Sour Zoda grows more compact compared to the Seifuku. After the photos both plants have been treated with Wizzy's Pflanzengeflรผster (0,5 g in 50 ml per plant) Nachtrag: Wir haben einen Schรคdlingsbefall, daher wurde die Erde bedeckt mit einer dicken Schicht Sand und darauf Splitt. Dadurch wird der Sand nicht weggespรผlt beim GieรŸen und es wird noch unattraktiver fรผr die Wurzelfliegen. Bei der Seifuku wurden die Haupttriebe mit Clips heruntergebogen. Bei beiden wurde das unterste Blattwerk entfernt, damit die ich die Barriere gut auf die Erde bekomme.

๐Ÿฐ Lava Cake โ€“ Final Harvest & Smoke Report GrowDiaries | Week 8 (Harvest & Cure) After months of dedication, lessons, and love, our Lava Cake journey comes to a close โ€” and what an ending it is. Both phenotypes reached maturity beautifully, wrapped in dense, resin-coated buds that carry the unmistakable aroma of sweetness and spice. ๐ŸŒฑ From Seed to Harvest โ€” A Journey in Full Bloom Our Lava Cake journey began from seed with two unique phenotypes, both full of potential and personality. Week after week, through careful nutrition, TrolMaster monitoring, and endless observation, we watched them evolve. From the early stages of vegetative vigor, through the lush canopy of mid-flower, and even through the challenges of heat and bud rot, these girls showed true resilience. Each setback taught something โ€” about balance, airflow, humility, and the living rhythm of nature. Both plants were ultimately harvested with respect and gratitude. โธป โœ‚๏ธ Harvest & Trimming After about two weeks of slow drying at 60ยฐF / 60% RH, the branches began to snap โ€” a sure sign the moisture was just right. Each plant was trimmed by hand, carefully and patiently, letting every calyx, pistil, and trichome tell its own story. The buds were dense, sticky, and heavily frosted โ€” a trimmerโ€™s delight. Finger hash collected along the way was pure gold, rich in aroma and bursting with terpenes. Each snip of the scissors felt like sculpting something sacred. Both plants were dried whole, allowing for slower moisture migration and a smoother final cure. โธป ๐ŸŒฟ On Trichomes and Harvest Timing We chose to harvest when most trichomes were cloudy, with only a few still clear and very few amber. This moment โ€” just before full amber maturity โ€” is where potency meets flavor at its peak. Why cloudy trichomes? Because thatโ€™s when cannabinoids like THC and terpenes are at their maximum activity. Too early, and you lose potency; too late, and THC starts converting into CBN, giving a heavier, sleepier effect. Cloudy trichomes deliver a balanced high โ€” euphoric yet grounding โ€” capturing the essence of the strain in its full potential. โธป ๐ŸŒธ Aroma, Taste & Effects The Lava Cake lives up to her name and lineage. Her rich terpene profile brings waves of sweet baked goods, layered with berry and grape undertones inherited from her Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies x Grape Pie heritage. When smoked, sheโ€™s smooth, creamy, and sweet, leaving a lingering flavor on the palate that feels like dessert for the senses. The effects are deeply relaxing, melting away tension and replacing it with calm contentment. This isnโ€™t a beginnerโ€™s strain โ€” her high is potent, steady, and full-bodied. A few tokes are enough to drift into a deeply peaceful, happy state. Perfect for evenings, rest days, or moments when the world needs to slow down. โธป ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ Curing โ€” Grove Bags & UV Glass Jars After trimming, buds were stored in Grove Bags, which naturally maintain humidity between 55โ€“62%, eliminating the need for daily โ€œburping.โ€ These innovative curing bags use a one-way humidity membrane, preserving terpenes and color while preventing mold. Alongside them, we used black UV-resistant glass jars โ€” perfect for long-term storage, protecting cannabinoids from light degradation and keeping aromas fresh. Together, these methods allowed the buds to cure into perfection โ€” firm, aromatic, and bursting with flavor. โธป ๐Ÿ”ฅ Resin, Hash & Full Spectrum Bar All trim from the grow โ€” not just from Lava Cake โ€” was collected to make a full-spectrum bar using simple, natural heat extraction with hot water in a glass bottle. The result was a potent, sticky, terpene-rich concentrate that perfectly captures the soul of the garden. โธป โš–๏ธ Final Yields โ€ข Pheno #1: 144g dry โ€ข Pheno #2: 99g dry Both phenotypes displayed amazing bud density and structure. In fact, their sheer weight caused a few branches to snap under their own mass โ€” another reason that influenced our harvest timing. These were heavy girls, through and through. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’ช โธป ๐Ÿ™ Gratitude & Reflections To everyone who followed along โ€” thank you. To Zamnesia, for the genetics and inspiration, thank you. To the GrowDiaries community, the supporters, the doubters, and everyone in between โ€” thank you for being part of this experience. And above all, thanks to God, because without Him, none of this beauty โ€” not even the smallest seed โ€” would exist. Growing Lava Cake wasnโ€™t just about cultivation; it was about connection, learning, and the sacred patience of nature. โธป ๐ŸŒ€ Closing Thoughts From seed to smoke, these Lava Cakes have been a story of flavor, resilience, and soul. Despite challenges like heat and bud rot, the final result was spectacular: frosty, aromatic, powerful flowers that embody everything beautiful about this craft. As we light the first cured joint, we celebrate not just the harvest, but the journey itself. Until the next grow โ€” stay curious, stay kind, and keep growing. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š Thank you to everyone who followed this run โ€” your support, questions, and shared passion have been part of what made this project so rewarding. The full smoke review will follow this harvest report and will be presented in 4K on YouTube, where weโ€™ll document the aroma, flavor, burn, and overall experience with both phenotypes and the pressed hash. ๐Ÿ“ฒ Donโ€™t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Growing this purple was easy Going most of the way, Only drawback was she grew so big it was hard anchoring her down in the basket from the tilts, but once she was down she put on a show. Her heavy Buds were thick, hard oozing resin was potent and sticky I quickly scooped up some falling Trichomes from beneath my tray Loaded my chamber 220c and 8hrs later I finished my day.Probably could have taken half that time had i not loaded that first bowl then the next....... ๐Ÿ˜Ž Just a tad over 12 Oz on my quest to hit 1 pound per plant. Some exciting Donated Seeds Coming My way. Stay Tuned Find out who they are and What I'm growing next, Going to be some exciting shit. Thanks for following๐Ÿ˜

๐Ÿ’œ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Harvest Diary ๐ŸŒฟ Purple Haze by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno B โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN HAS REACHED HARVEST! โ€” SMALLER PLANT, BIG PERSONALITY! ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’œ Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š My friends... HERE WE ARE AGAIN! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ Another harvest report, another beautiful girl, another collection of photographs, and another opportunity to remind everyone that this adventure has given us twelve individual plants with twelve individual stories. And yes... We're splitting the reports again! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ I know, I know. At this point, some of you might be thinking: "Doc, are we ever going to finish looking at these harvests?" YES! WE WILL! But first, we need to give every girl her moment. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ Today, we're giving the spotlight to our Purple Haze Pheno B by Zamnesia. Our Little Frosty Queen. The smaller sister. The girl who took her time, stayed more compact than her Big Mama sister, and eventually gave us a beautiful harvest of her own. And if there's one thing I want to make clear from the beginning, it's this: Smaller doesn't mean less beautiful. This girl had her own character throughout the 8ร—8 Adventure, and she deserves to have her journey documented properly. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ This report is focused on harvest day and the beginning of the post-harvest chapter. We also took a few photographs of the drying rack, even though our approach was to dry the plant whole. There is more to come, including the trimming report, detailed post-harvest observations, and the smoke review. So please bear with me if the structure feels familiar! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š We're not repeating ourselves because we have nothing new to say. We're documenting each individual plant separately, and each one deserves a complete story of her own. Let's give our Little Frosty Queen the attention she deserves! โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โ„๏ธ THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN โ€” FROM SEED TO HARVEST If you've followed this diary from the beginning, you already know this girl's story. Purple Haze Pheno B was part of our 8ร—8 Adventure, where twelve individual plants shared the same general growing environment under our 12/12-from-seed approach. From the early stages, this girl developed differently from her sister. She stayed more compact. She took her time. And while the Big Mama was making herself noticed through her size and substantial structure, Pheno B was quietly developing her own personality. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ For a while, we were waiting to see what she would show us. And then, as the flowering weeks progressed, those flowers became increasingly interesting. The compact structure remained. The flowers developed. And the frost became one of the most striking features of this phenotype. That was the moment when our description of her really started to make sense. The Little Frosty Queen! โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ She didn't need to become as tall as her sister. She didn't need to occupy the same amount of space. She didn't need to follow the same developmental timeline. She simply needed to be herself. And now, after following her through the growing journey, we're finally documenting her harvest. What a beautiful way to close this chapter! โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘ญ TWO SISTERS, TWO DIFFERENT STORIES One of my favourite things about this part of the 8ร—8 Adventure is being able to compare the two Purple Haze phenotypes. Not because we're trying to decide which one is better. But because the differences are so interesting to observe. ๐Ÿ’œ PHENO A โ€” THE BIG MAMA ๐Ÿ‘‘ A more substantial plant with plenty of presence. ๐ŸŒฟ A larger overall structure. ๐ŸŒธ Beautiful flowers that earned her own studio photos. ๐Ÿ’œ PHENO B โ€” THE LITTLE FROSTY QUEEN โ„๏ธ A more compact, more modest plant. ๐Ÿ’Ž A beautiful frosty appearance. ๐ŸŒธ Her own distinctive flower presentation. ๐Ÿ’œ A different developmental journey from her sister. Same genetic family. Same general room. Same overall growing approach. Two different expressions. And both are worth celebrating. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ This is exactly why I enjoy following individual phenotypes instead of assuming that plants with the same genetic name will develop identically. The Big Mama gave us one story. The Little Frosty Queen gave us another. And now we have two separate harvest diaries documenting those journeys from their own perspectives. Neither needs to imitate the other. Both deserve their own spotlight. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž THAT BEAUTIFUL FROST โ€” HER SIGNATURE LOOK Let's be honest... The frost was one of the first things that made this girl stand out. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’œ Throughout the later flowering updates, we kept coming back to the same observation: when you looked closely at her flowers, there was so much to appreciate. Her compact structure gave her a different appearance from her sister, while the visible resin contributed to that beautiful frosty look. And that's what I want people to remember when they look through these harvest photographs. We aren't looking at a smaller version of the Big Mama. We're looking at a different individual plant with her own expression. The overall size is one part of the picture. The flower structure is another. The appearance, colours, and visible resin add further details. And when you bring all those elements together, you get the Little Frosty Queen we have been following throughout this adventure. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ She may have been more modest in size, but she certainly didn't disappear into the background. She made herself noticed in her own way. And I'm glad we took the time to document that. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœ‚๏ธ HARVEST DAY โ€” ANOTHER GIRL COMPLETES HER JOURNEY And then came harvest day! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’œ After all those weeks of observing, photographing, and documenting her progress, we reached the moment when her growing chapter came to an end. There's always something satisfying about reaching this point in a diary. We remember the earlier photographs. We remember the weeks when the plant was still developing. We remember the questions we had along the way. And then we get to look at the harvest and appreciate the journey as a whole. For Pheno B, that journey was all about her own rhythm. She was the smaller sister. She developed at her own pace. And she gradually revealed more of her individual character as the flowering stage progressed. Now we've reached harvest, and we're moving into the post-harvest documentation. I'm keeping this chapter focused on the harvest itself rather than trying to squeeze every detail into one report. There will be time to discuss trimming, aroma, flavour, and the rest of the post-harvest experience in the next updates. For now, let's appreciate the milestone. Another Purple Haze phenotype has completed her growing journey! ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ‘‘ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ DRYING THE PLANT WHOLE โ€” WITH A FEW PHOTOGRAPHIC DETOURS! Our approach was to dry the plant whole. But, naturally, the camera had other plans! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ We also took a few photographs of the drying rack because we had the space to capture that part of the process. And I think it's worth including those images in the diary. They help document the transition from harvest day into the drying stage, rather than leaving a gap between the plant in the growing room and the flowers we'll be discussing in the trimming report. The whole-plant drying approach is part of this girl's post-harvest story. The additional drying-rack photographs are simply another way to preserve the moment and show a little more of what happened after harvest. And if you've been following my diaries for a while, you already know that I like documenting these details. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ“ธ I want to be able to look back at these reports and remember not only what the flowers looked like, but also the different stages that brought us from the living plant to the post-harvest process. The harvest is one milestone. Drying is another. Trimming will have its own chapter. And the smoke review will follow when we're ready to discuss that part of the experience. One step at a time, my friends! โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ A SMALLER HARVEST REPORTโ€ฆ BUT STILL PLENTY TO SHOW! Now, let's talk about the photographs. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Compared with some of the other harvest diaries, this one is a little more modest. We have fewer photographs in this particular chapter, but there is still plenty to share. We've got the harvest-day views, photographs showing the plant and her flowers, and a few shots of the drying rack. And remember, this isn't the complete photographic collection for the entire post-harvest journey. We're splitting the documentation into separate reports so that each stage has room to breathe. The harvest-day photographs show us the plant at this important transition. The drying-rack images give us another view of the post-harvest process. The next report will focus on the trimming stage and the details we want to discuss there. So, no, this isn't the end of the Little Frosty Queen's photographic adventure! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ“ธ We're simply taking it one chapter at a time. And although there may be fewer photographs here than in some of the other reports, every image contributes to her story. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฌ THE 8ร—8 ADVENTURE โ€” TWELVE PLANTS, TWELVE INDIVIDUAL STORIES For anyone discovering this diary for the first time, welcome to the 8ร—8 Adventure! We're following twelve individual plants and phenotypes through a shared project, documenting their development and observing the differences between them. The plants shared the same general growing environment, lighting ecosystem, and overall approach to care. But they didn't all develop in the same way. Some grew taller. Some stayed compact. Some progressed quickly. Others took longer. And even two Purple Haze phenotypes gave us noticeably different stories. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‘‘ The Big Mama made her presence felt through her overall size and structure. โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ’Ž The Little Frosty Queen remained more compact while developing her own beautiful flower expression. That's the part I love about this project. We aren't trying to force every plant into the same shape or timeline. We're documenting what happens and appreciating the differences as they appear. The growing stage is now complete for Pheno B, and we're continuing that documentation into harvest and post-harvest. The story doesn't end when the plant leaves the growing room. There's still plenty to document, discuss, and learn from. Twelve plants. Twelve personalities. Twelve individual journeys. And another beautiful chapter completed! ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฟ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก THE LIGHTING TEAM BEHIND THE 8ร—8 ADVENTURE Throughout this project, our main lighting ecosystem has included the Future of Grow Black Series LEDs, with two additional Black Series 600W fixtures supplied for us to test. We've been documenting the expanded setup as part of the wider project, including our approach of controlling the output rather than simply running every fixture at maximum. The previous room reference was approximately 59% power from the plug, with around 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy. Actual intensity varied with plant height and position. The Lumiflora lighting also contributed an additional dimension to the setup deeper in the canopy. These are part of the shared environment we documented throughout the growing journey, rather than claims that any single piece of equipment explains the differences between the two Purple Haze phenotypes. Their individual development is what makes the comparison interesting. A massive thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series fixtures for this experiment! ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ”ฅ Thank you to Lumiflora for being part of the lighting ecosystem, and to TrolMaster for helping us manage and monitor the room behind the scenes. The equipment is part of the story. The plants are the stars. And our Little Frosty Queen has certainly earned her place in the spotlight! ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒฟโ„๏ธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ฌ COME JOIN THE DOG DOCTOR COMMUNITY!

THE TRIMMING REPORT! And now, my friends, we have the next chapter waiting for us. ๐Ÿ˜‚โœ‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ This report has been about the harvest day, the Little Frosty Queen's journey, and the beginning of her post-harvest story. The next report will take us into the trimming stage. We'll have more photographs to share, and we'll give that part of the process the attention it deserves. We'll also discuss the aromas, flavours, and the rest of the post-harvest experience in the appropriate report, rather than trying to squeeze everything into today's update. I want to keep each chapter clear and self-contained, just as we've been doing throughout the 8ร—8 Adventure. So stay tuned! The harvest has been documented. The whole-plant drying stage is part of the story.

From seed to harvest. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‘ She was the smaller sister. The more compact plant. The girl who took her time and developed at her own pace. But she was never just a smaller version of the Big Mama. She had her own structure, her own timeline, and her own beautiful expression. And throughout the later flowering stages, her frosty appearance became one of the features that made her stand out. Now we've reached harvest, and I'm happy we can document this moment properly. The growing chapter is complete. We've captured the harvest-day photographs. We've included a few images from the drying-rack stage. And we're preparing for the next report, where we'll focus on trimming and the rest of the post-harvest experience. This is why we keep separate diaries for individual phenotypes. Because every plant deserves to have her own story told properly. And this Little Frosty Queen has certainly given us one worth following. ๐Ÿ’œโ„๏ธ๐ŸŒธ She didn't need to be the tallest. She didn't need to be the biggest. She simply needed to be herself. And that's exactly what she did. Keep shining, beautiful girl.

This is looking like the final week on the mango, they are 2 weeks into flush now and the colours are so vibrant! I am off on holiday in September and need ten days to dries these before hand, so I maybe forced to crop next week Friday. We will see how it goes. I have been checking the plants all over for milky and amber trichomes. So far I can say the mango has about 80% milky 15% clear and 5% amber..... she's not far off ๐Ÿคค. The amnesia has about 75% milky 24% clear and 1% amber. These do vary between top and bottom of plants of course. But take them as an average. The amnesia is sooooo fat! And I am in love with tho colours of the mango. Will keep you all updated and add some proper photos of the final plants on harvest (without L.E.D light), that will all be next week. See you then!

These plants were great. I messed things up a bit but they still turned out a half decent yield. The taste and smell of the final product are great. I am growing one of these plants in my greenhouse and I canโ€™t wait to see what it produces as I donโ€™t have the small space to confine the plant. I love Humboldt genetics and canโ€™t wait to grow more.

Zucker Zucker Zucker - es wird mehr und mehr und langsam sieht es so aus als wenn auch der Stretch durch ist. Das heiรŸt nรคchste Woche lollipoppen. Auf jeden Fall wird es gut Arbeit werden bei beiden Pflanzen. Die guave wรคchst sehr dicht die internodienabstรคnde ebenfalls. Deswegen lรคuft jetzt auch der dritte Ventilator mit im Zelt. Heute gab heute gab es dann auch eine normale Dosis PK 1314 um einen ordentlichen Schub zu gรถnnen. Ein calmg Problem konnte ich bisher auch nicht weiter ausmachen. Top. Vom Geruchsprofil her ist die guava runtz eindeutig hier fruchtig, mit leicht bodenstรคndigem Unterton. Sehr lecker und vielversprechend. Und sie hebt sich deutlich von der guava sunday ab. ๐Ÿคค

I had a little pH dip the other day and the leaves showed some magnesium deficiency. I am not super worried. These leaves are far from final ones. She has grown pretty well beside that pH issue. It should be solved now. I was feeding a little strong. I still kinda am. She is doing good under the G300W Spider Farmer light. I have it like 25 percent right now everything looks good now.

Let the flushing begin! Super pumped to finally be at the end of this first grow of this strain. 4 liters water for the flush. The last week she put on a little bit of size, but probably more density in the buds as well as terpenes and smell was gained.
