🌿 Cosmic Noodles — Week 6 Flower (Week 10 from Seed) ✦ Context & Run Setup 12/12 from seed. Autoflower expression under controlled flowering conditions — a hybrid rhythm between speed and structure. What we’re seeing now is the result of early structure + stable environment + precise feeding. And also… one lesson plant that deserves respect. ⸻ ⚠️ The Overwater Plant — A Necessary Decision This week, we made a call. Not emotional — responsible. One plant, previously pushed through intentional overwatering conditions, did not recover. Root zone remained compromised, oxygen exchange was limited, and overall plant vitality continued declining. What we observed: • Persistent droop and lack of turgor recovery • Slowed or stalled bud development • Increased risk profile (humidity pockets, potential for rot/microbial issues) At this stage in flower, the plant wasn’t just underperforming — she was becoming a liability to the room. So the decision was made: ✂️ Harvest early, remove risk, protect the ecosystem. Yield was minimal — but that was never the point. This plant served as a living case study. 💡 Key takeaway for the community: Overwatering is not about “too much water” — it’s about lack of oxygen in the root zone. Once that balance is lost for too long, recovery becomes unlikely. Respect to her. She taught more than she produced. ⸻ 🌱 The Rest of the Garden — Absolute Explosion Now… the contrast. The remaining plants are doing the exact opposite. They are: • Vigorous • Structurally stacked • Visibly happy ✦ What we’re seeing: • Bud sites fully formed and stacking aggressively • Dense, symmetrical structure across the canopy • Leaves holding a deep, healthy green • Strong transpiration and daily drinking rhythm These girls are not just growing — they are driving energy exactly where it needs to go. ⸻ 💧 Water, Feeding & Plant Demand Current intake: • 1.6 – 1.8L per plant / 24h This tells us everything: • Root systems are active • Transpiration is strong • Environment is dialed ✦ Parameters: • Temperature: 26°C • RH: 60% • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 • CO₂: ~1000 ppm This combination is creating: → Efficient nutrient uptake → Strong metabolic activity → Continuous flower development They are eating, drinking, and converting. ⸻ 🌸 Bud Development — Where It Gets Beautiful At ~Week 6 flower: • Calyx stacking is now visibly dominant • Buds are transitioning from formation → mass accumulation • Structure is tightening, weight is coming in And the key detail: 👉 The plants are still pushing fresh growth, not fading early → This means the engine is still running strong You’ve built a system where: • Energy is available • Environment supports it • Genetics are expressing fully That’s why they look like this. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Size & Structure • Average height: ~1.2 meters • Even canopy with strong tops • Light penetration still effective This is the sweet spot: 👉 Big enough to produce 👉 Controlled enough to manage ⸻ 🔍 Why They’re Thriving (While One Didn’t) This is the real lesson of this week. The difference wasn’t genetics. It was the root environment. Healthy plants: • Oxygenated root zone • Stable wet/dry cycle • Consistent nutrient availability Overwatered plant: • Oxygen deprivation • Root stress → reduced uptake • Cascade effect into weak growth Everything above the soil is just a reflection of what happens below it. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Coming into the next phase: ✦ Expect: • Continued bud swelling • Increased density and weight • Possible early signs of fade (depending on feeding strategy) • Higher demand for stability (environment becomes critical now) ✦ Watch for: • Humidity control (as buds thicken) • Airflow through the canopy • Any signs of internal moisture pockets We are entering the “everything counts” phase. ⸻ 🤝 Closing Words To everyone watching this journey: • Day one supporters • Silent observers • Question askers • Even the doubters This is for all of you. To the community, to GD, to the sponsors, to the genetics — thank you for being part of this process. Because this isn’t just a grow. It’s: → Learning → Sharing → Improving together ⸻ And to the garden… One plant taught us a lesson. The others are showing us what happens when everything aligns. This is balance. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. 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.

Hey growmies! This is always amongst my favorite weeks of growing, week 4 of flower. The stretching stops and our flowers start the long, beautiful process of fattening up! throughout this week I kept pulling off fan leaves, I know it's controversial with autoflowers, but this girl is big and has a lot of fan leaves. I started using my PK booster this week, lil buds are getting stickier and fatter every day, check out the timelapse! If this flower finishes nicely then the competition is already a W for me, since we would be looking at a decent harvest and weed is a great reward in itself! hope to see you next week

Going off what other people say about 2x-3x growth during the preflower stretch I decided it's time to flip!

Not much to say about this one. Continuing lst, plant is looking alright. Not great not bad. Biobizz grow on the go now. Did a little defoliation a few days ago to allow more light to hit the lower parts.

Hello:) it was a good week again:) my biggest enemy at the moment is my dehumidifier, I need to empty it every day to keep everything in check:) other than that, smooth sailing so far. They more then doubled in size since the flip and I think they should now mostly be done stretching. I also did the first big defoliation, I removed about the bottom half. The flowers also seem to develop a little bit faster than last time:)

Second Week / 15. - 22.05.24 🌿 Week 2 of my grow and my little green friends are thriving! 🚀 Strong leaf growth this week, just sticking to watering with plain water as it's still early days—no nutrients added yet. 🚫💧 Everything's running smoothly and the autos are showing promising vigor. Loving this journey so far, fingers crossed for more lush growth ahead! 🤞🌱

Spread this girl out a bit using some string and mild LST. She's responded super well and all the bud sites seem to be getting a nice dose from the TS1000 :) Bit late uploading this week but the pictures were taken back on Tuesday meaning this is still an accurately dated upload.

Another crazy week, hot days, cold nights, always windy. These are the conditions in which weed grows in nature and my girls seem to love. RG is confirmed as a runner. Perfectly healthy only a few scratches caused by the wind. No parasites. Very rapid response to bending with excellent branching. What a smell !!

Last week it rained and it looks like it is going to rain again this week. Frostbanger didn't get any nutrients last week which is okay because it is time to flush. I am flushing earlier than I had planned but it is time to take Frostbanger down!!! It has also been very humid here, around 90% and I am worried about bud rot. Frostbanger is definitely dense and resin covered, just like its description. It also has a very strong smell. I am sure the neighbors can smell it-LOL. This strain has been a pretty easy strain to grow. The weather conditions have been my biggest challenge.

Strain: Zamnesia – Strawberry Cough Grow Type: Indoor Medium: Coco Coir & Perlite Nutrient Line: Athena Harvest Log Strawberry Cough is officially in the books 🌿🔥 This was definitely a stressful run from start to finish. Between the environmental challenges and the AC issues, these girls never really got the ideal conditions they deserved. That said, they still managed to pull through and produce some really nice buds in the end. I'm satisfied with how she turned out, especially considering everything she had to deal with, but if I'm being completely honest, I know deep down she could have done even better. Sometimes that's just how growing goes you work with what you've got and learn from it for the next run. Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to take proper harvest photos as things were pretty hectic and I've been extremely busy lately. Still, the buds came out looking good and I'm happy with the overall quality. This is definitely a strain I'll be revisiting in the future. Once some space opens up in the garden, she'll be getting another run under much better conditions because I know there's a lot more potential waiting to be unlocked. Drying Conditions 🌡️ Temperature: ~20–22°C 💧 Humidity: ~55–60% ⏱️ Dry Time: ~10–14 Days Despite the challenges, Strawberry Cough still gave a respectable finish and earned herself another spot in the future lineup 🍓🔥🌿

This week was a big week for the candy cush. I noticed upon watering her to run off, that in the same day the pot would go super dry and light weight. I also noticed stress in the leaves and roots poking out the bottom of the pot. It was time for a transplant. So far so good! Upon transplanting i performed more LST to help her fill in the pot. She went from a 1 gallon to a 5 gallon. She was also defoliated thia week.

So far it's going steady. The dwc pH has been dipping to the low 5s. I'm only feeding bloom, calmag, cha-ching and water probably for the next week to be safe until flush. The PP seems to be doing great. Wondering if it will get purple colors or did I drop the wrong damn seed 🤣. But she smells lovely

Zdravím všechny✋ týden utekl jak voda a já dneškem startuju zřejmě poslední týden, ještě uvidím, ale při šmejdění s lupičkou jsem zjistil, že trichomy jsou všechny nalitý mlíkem, ale amber jsem tam ještě neviděl ani jeden Major krásně voní a po otevření stanu, hezky praští přes rypák. Dnes už dostal jen do zálivky A+B základ 1ml/L 2ml/L Overdrive zálivka šla zpět na 7L přiobjednal jsem od Advanced Nutrients Flawless Finish s kterým to ještě proženu před sklizní, nikdy jsem Flush nedělal tak snad to trošku pomůže k chuti. Jinak palice jsou velký kompaktní a krásně tvrdý za mě spokojenost. Fotky i videjko jsem dělal dnes 15.6. enjoy

Hallo Freunde 👋 Velvet Candy Widow Auto von Monkey Genetics 🦍 ist zur Welt gekommen nach nur 3 Tagen vom Samen zum 1,5 cm Samling 👍 Respekt!!! Abwarten wie es weiter geht! ✌️Keep Green and grow High 🍀💚🍀

Week 0 marks the beginning of the Amnesia grow. The seed successfully germinated and transitioned into the starter medium without issues. Emergence was clean and even, showing healthy early development. The cotyledons opened properly, and the seedling stands upright with a stable stem. Early growth looks balanced, with no signs of stretching, discoloration, or stress. At this stage, the plant is relying mainly on its internal energy reserves while establishing the first roots. 💧 Watering • Very light watering only • Medium kept slightly moist, never soaked • Focus on encouraging root growth 🌡️ Environment • Temperature: ~24–25 °C • Humidity: ~70–80% • Gentle airflow to strengthen the stem

Day 43. Girls will get heavy training later today. They grow ... and because of that i had to move 3 Kushes to other tent and i will make separate diary for theirs flowering time. 3 Auto Blue Tooth by Real Gorilla Seeds took theirs place. After todays training i will give them 4-5 days to recover and will send them to flower hopefully on sunday after 24 hours of darkness. Skunks grow bigger plants, than Cheeses, despite theirs quickest germination and obvious lead in first 3 weeks or so ... Day 46. 3 days left to flower, finally made heavy training, way too busy for LST grows... but result is good, girls hopefully will show off in bloom ! Day 47. Girls loved training, 2 more days, 24 hours darkness and tuesday latest flowering starts. Got full feed of Biobizz, feed charts updated. Next feed = water + silica. Happy Growing !!!

Scrog installed and the ladies are growing closer to it everyday. One of the pink kush are growing very well and i Hope it have the qualities in flower that im Looking for. Very pleased so far 🙂
