So this was an outdoor auto that had to endure the craziest temps! From 48 degrees to 95 degrees through its life! Squirrels kept trying to dig up the dirt around it, major humidity swings, rain, hot sun, etx—- so I am very pleased with the results after all that Mother Nature threw at her! Smell is amazing, like bubble gum! And that’s rare that the flavor actually matches the name in cannabis! Not the biggest yield, but not the greatest environment and a small pot! ✌️💚🌿💨

🌙 Week 12 from Seed / Week 8 Flower — “The Dark Lady Rising” What a journey this has been. From that single seed born under a 12/12 rhythm, she’s proven that beginnings don’t define limits — they define character. If you’re just joining us, this White Widow from Zamnesia started life under an 11/13 shuttle — a true from-seed flower cycle. While most plants grow before they bloom, she began her story in full awareness of time, learning to balance energy from day one. The 12/12 rhythm teaches a plant to optimize every second of light — to focus not on size, but on efficiency, structure, and density. 🌿 This Week — The Transformation Deepens We’re now in week 8 of flower, and this girl is simply breathtaking. Her buds are dense, coated in frost, and carrying tones of deep green to near-purple, whispering that a darker finish is coming. The trichomes look like they’ve been dusted in starlight — thick, sticky, and reflecting light like ice in a warm glow. The aroma is growing stronger, rich with that unmistakable 90s soul — earthy, spicy, and nostalgic. Every breath feels like opening a time capsule from the golden age. The structure remains compact, balanced between strength and grace. Every cola is firm, symmetrical, and promising exceptional development over the final stretch. 💧 Feedings & Care She continues on her well-calibrated Aptus + Plagron routine: Aptus Regulator for balance and resilience CalMag Boost for structure All-in-One Liquid to sustain her metabolism Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, and Green Sensation to enhance flavor, weight, and resin Even with nutrients in her pre-built soil, these light feedings help her push to full potential — especially under the demanding 12/12-from-seed schedule. 🌞 Environment & Observations The room continues to ride steady despite the season’s warmth — around 28–30°C, with humidity hovering near 55–60%. The VPD sits around 1.4–1.6, right in the sweet spot for flower stacking and trichome expansion. Lighting, managed through Trolmaster with Future of Grow and ThinkGrow LEDs, keeps her under a balanced spectrum with Emerson effect red cycles — 15 minutes before and after lights-on for maximum photosynthetic efficiency. 📸 Photography & Documentation Captured through the loyal Sony a6000, alternating between macro and standard lenses to highlight her best angles — from the full canopy’s dark silhouette to the icy micro-world of her trichomes. Each frame tells a different part of her story. 🌺 What to Expect & What Not In the coming weeks, we expect: Even deeper color tones — likely deep violet or burgundy Continued resin production, especially on sugar leaves Aroma intensification and the start of natural fade What not to expect: Big size changes. She’s already done stretching — it’s all density and maturity now. Harsh stress reactions — this girl has adapted perfectly to her rhythm. 🌍 Gratitude & Vibes To everyone reading, following, commenting — the lovers, the haters, the old souls, and the new wanderers — thank you for being part of this journey. To Zamnesia, for the genetics that bridge generations. To Aptus and Plagron, for the nourishment that sustains life.

Been doing a lot of tweaking with the new gear and multiple sets of plants. Been quite a busy week and probably behind a bit on keeping track of everything. I'm currently working on trying to get better charts made to keep track of things like light schedules, detailed feedings, height change per day, etc. My current setup is my oldest 1st set of plants (5plants) and my 3rd set (6 seedlings), in my new 4x4 Vivosun grow tent equipped with a Spider Farmer SF-1000. I have kept my 2nd set of plants (4plants) in my original 4x2 Vivosun equipped with 600W Vivosun LED. These plants had been extremely stressed due to not having soil or containers available with shipping constraints. They've been doing a lot better since then and I'm hoping they make a full recovery. Fingers crossed! Running 24hr light schedule. Both tents equipped with temp/hygro high and low ranging from about 71-81°F with an average of about 78°F. Watering by plant pot weight, according to GH FloraTrio + CalMag Schedule. Mild LST via tucking of leaves blocking developing sites. No more than 3 leaves removed per plant, per day to avoid stress. ______________________________________ Can't wait to start upgrading the quality of my journals and to hear you all's feedback! Happy growing and good vibes as always 🌱 ______________________________________ 4/29/20 - Update Okeydoke! Feel like I've been doing too much running around everywhere. Sorry for being so hectic the past week or so if anyone has been keeping up with this 😂 For the time being, I'm currently running all three sets of my plants in my 4x4 tent. It's running all three of my fans, both lights and has the carbon filter system and humidifier hooked up to it as well. I basically have the other 4x2 just sitting as a shell for the moment. Either planning to save it for climate control when curing the first harvest or sell it to invest in another Spider Farmer SF-1000 LED or equivalent and possibly another 4x4 tent. I have started a grow chart that's still a little sketchy but if nothing else having it here hells me keep up with it that much better.

The first set of plant's nutrients was made to 4gal of water. The mix is a ratio of (Cal-Mag/GHMicro/GHGro/GHBloom) It's mixed (for the 4gal) in order; 10mL, 5mL, 10mL, 10mL. 440ppm @ 98.5°F 890EC @ 2.2°F us/cm This new nutrient mix was applied for the first time tonight and will run about a week. I'm running a bit behind according to the GH schedule I was following due to stunting the growth I felt like over a couple issues to where I have them an extra week of veg nutrients. As I have defoliated them and they have seemed to take it pretty well, I'm hoping the increase in bloom nutrients will kick the buds into overdrive for production and the plants will start to thicken up again. The second mix follows the same order as the first set in regards to nutrient usage. This mix is only mixed to one gallon. It as follows; 2.5mL, 2.5mL, 1.25mL, 2.5mL. 500ppm @ 98.6°F 992EC @ 0.4°F us/cm This is mostly following the same GH nutrient schedule as the first set only about 2 weeks behind. These plants suffered from being in too small of containers for too long and I believe this stunted their growth. I've had them in suitable new containers for a couple days now and hoping this new mix of increased nutrients will bring them back to life a bit and get them back in schedule. I'm honestly not too sure still about the ppm and EC numbers but a few bud-dies have mentioned that it plays important roles in plant health. So until I can better research good numbers and how to control it for my set up, I'm at the very least trying to keep track of the data. I apologise about this large chunk of text! I hope you enjoy the diary anyway in spite of the fact. I'm loving the look of the buds and everything seems to be going great. Only a few months to go! 😎

She is very fat now and the buds are heavier as the steams want to bend to one side.

This week we the weather will be a bit cold, so I put her a bit close to the house. Weather was a bit windy, so pictures are not the best, but hey... it's an outdoor thing isn't it? Last week we had wonderfull weather, but this week weather will go under 15C, hope everything will go well. No additional nutrients yet, there's enough in the soil for 1 full round, but i iwll start adding mineral nutrients soon, just to get better taste and to be sure that no shortages of minerals will be visible on leaf (or better said... let's feed enough, so the insects can have some too (outdoor).

Solid

Growing great in week 8 day 2 bloom fed her the last time going to do winter frost and straight water out the gate I started supplementing phosphorus and it fatned them buds up some these girls are heavy eaters

Subimos la temperatura de la sala y vaya si se noto, las plantas crecieron más en 2 semanas que en un mes, una pena no haber podido aclimatar antes la sala

Setting bud sites real nice. Waiting to remove branches on lower half of plant.

Week 18 (30-6 tm 5-7) 30-6 Temperatuur: 31.4 graden (licht aan) 22.5 graden (licht uit) Luchtvochtigheid: 69% (hoogste) 50% (laagste) Ik heb de trichomen bekeken en heb besloten haar nog een dagje langer laten staan. Watergift: Geen. 1-7 Vandaag heb ik de trichomen opnieuw bekeken en die zien er goed uit! Veel cloudy en best wel wat amber. Ik hou echt van deze trichome foto's, echt mind blowing hoe dat er uit ziet! Dus vandaag gaat de schaar er in! 2-7 Ik heb besloten om een wet trim te doen zodat als ze droog is ze gelijk in de cure pot kan. Geloof het of niet, maar ik ben wel 12 uur lang bezig geweest om alles te knippen 😅 Op 1-7 ben ik in de middag begonnen en in de vroege ochtend van 2-7 was ik klaar. Het natte gewicht van de buds is 283 gram, en het natte gewicht van de trim is 61 gram. Ik ben nu al super tevreden met het gewicht! Dit is meer dan het dubbele aan gewicht vergeleken met mijn eerste grow. De buds zien er ook echt mooi uit. Ik schat dat het tussen de 50 en 75 gram droog gaat zijn. Ik ben benieuwd, nu een paar dagen drogen! Droogtent: Temperatuur: 23.4 graden (hoogste) 21.2 graden (laagste) Luchtvochtigheid: 59% (hoogste) 42% (laagste) 3-7 Droogtent: Temperatuur: 23.2 graden (hoogste) 21.5 graden (laagste) Luchtvochtigheid: 50% (hoogste) 41% (laagste) 4-7 Droogtent: Temperatuur: 23.1 graden (hoogste) 22.1 graden (laagste) Luchtvochtigheid: 53% (hoogste) 46% (laagste) 5-7 Na 3 dagen is ze droog genoeg om te curen. Wel heb ik iets te lang gewacht want de LV in de jar geeft nu 57% aan. Ik hoop dat dit over een dag wat om hoog gaat. Nu een paar weken curen en dan kom ik met de rook verslag 😁 Ik zal binnenkort ook even berekenen wat de gram per watt is, aangezien ik de lamp niet de gehele grow op 100% had staan. Het droge gewicht van de buds is precies 75 gram, en het droge gewicht van de trim is 19 gram. Samen maakt dat 94 gram! (De trim gebruik ik om een CBD cake of bubble hasj te maken) Ik wil iedereen bedanken voor het volgen van dit avontuur! Tot de volgende keer!

This will go down as one of my favorite harvests to date. The rosin produced from this flower is so strong it had me TOO high lol

Siamo quasi giunti al termino di questo ciclo.. queste bestie si sono dimostrate forti, e trasudano terpeni da ogni parte. Son davvero curioso di ció che sarà il prodotto finale!

Growing an inch a day about

I've turned down the lights again to 60%, and with the increased feeding last week, the GMO and Glookies really seem to be getting back some green where it was almost gone. The overdose in N from CalMag Agent seemed to have done the trick. Some of the lower leaves on the Glookies are already quite dark green, and since I expect to harvest (some) in 2-5 weeks, I don't want to overfeed it now. So I have reduced the CalMag Agent level again. Sour Strawberry and Acapulco Gold are unimpressed and continue to slowly fade. They have also gained a bunch of weight again, all in all it's going ok now.

Week 8 Flower Flush flush flush 💦🚽💦🚽💦 It's extremely important to flush for at least 14 days when using synthetic nutes, or any bottled nutes in my opinion. The aim is to make her cannibalize (fade) as much as possible before she's chopped. By doing this, she's using up her stored nutrients, causing the leaves to eventually die. The better the flush the cleaner the smoke 👌💨 even when in an organic set up, the plant needs to be nicely faded before being harvested. Otherwise she's still full of nutrients. I still feel I'll be able to get an even better flush when I eventually make the switch to RO water, as my tap water holds a ppm value of approx 150. It's not too much, but 0 is always better. She was taken down on Day 57 flower, after a 16 Day flush. I didn't want to take her any further as she was quite stressed being so close to the light. So to avoid getting seeds I waited until she had a beautiful fade before giving her the chop ✂️ I always take my girls down about 30mins before the light turns on so there is minimal chlorophyll production in the plant. This is to ensure the best smell, taste and overall burn after drying and curing. A subtle but very sweet-ish tropical fruit skin kind of smell to her. Her buds are super dense and covered in trichomes. I trimmed off all fan leaves and then each branch was hung in my drying box and placed in a cool area. She was dry after 6 days and ready to be dry trimmed and jarred for curing. I'll post those pics with the harvest update! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

She's starting to fatten up nicely! Terps still off the meter,and the roots are ridiculous. Definitely one of the best plants I've ever grown.

Bottom left I forgot I mixed with coco as I didnt have enough livingsoil left to fill the pot. Showing some signs of fading but giving it a dose of biobizz tonight and 50g 2 8 10 amendment to each. Watering 2L each every 2days still. Weekly microben feed at 5ml per L 25/10/25 - Added 55g of 2 8 10 amendment to each pot and mixed then watered 2L 5ml per L microben Ph6.8 27/10/25 - Watered 2.5L each Ph6.8 29/10/25 - Watered 2.5L each 5ml per L Dr organics microben terra actus

DAY 21 FLOWERING: Well it had to happen eventually!!! . I knew it would come to this point.....I had to be brutal and practical as I evicted the Gorilla cookies and the mutant Northern light to a different space... I now have the #1 Northern lights and the Grandaddys Mimosa directly under the XS1500 to really develop them both to the best I can. The light has done a great job developing all 5 to this point and I do think it could have finished them all at a push but , I think seeing how it can grow 2 auto plants in a 2x2 space will be worth the change of plan. I am impressed with this little light and never expected such a growth rate . I really would love to test their new p4000 to see what that beast can do. The northern lights has really worked hard this week on her bud structuring , she looks like she will be stacking her colas on each limb , just the way we like em in the space I have. I did take a little more weak lower growth out of her to focus on the stronger mains as we have hit the point of no more defol . She wont regrow leaf after this point now so the ones remaining will be all she has to power the photosynthesis during flowering. Sugar leaves do not do the same work as the fan leaves and with them being autos , I feel we need the extra boost more than in a photoperiod run. She looks like stretch has finished now too so her size is nice and stocky so she wont need to transfer nutes too far from the roots either. Grandaddys mimosa is also really developing some nice looking golf ball buds all over. She looks like she will be a long cola girl too which is perfect to keep the canopy and light distribution as even as possible with the Northern lights too. She smells a little fruity already and the hint of her Mimosa lemon father is also really evident. So far so good . The 2 Gorilla cookies and the other northern lights are all looking great after being grown under this light and I will include their harvest data in the diary at the end to avoid the diary going haywire. All in all this is going great now and continues to impress me with the capability of this unit. Come on #viparspectra , send me a p4000. Lol Be safe and well growmies.
