_____📅 Week 16 | 📅 Day 112 | 🍂 Harvest after the 8. week 🍂 ______ Day 112 🌞🍂🍁💐 - I decided to harvest 2 of the 3 Lemon Power Haze...Exactly after the 8th week. - I'll leave LPH#1 in the tent for at least another week. - Yield is okay...but the buds didn't get even light either...there were too many plants or too long a veggie phase... Day 122 🌞🍂🍁💐 I harvested LPH#1 after 9.5 weeks, I think that did her good Yield dry: LPH#1 - 80 gr LPH#2 - 105gr LPH#3 - 90 gr ____________________ 3 Plants 275 gr total This is now filled into 4 liter preserving jars and stored for at least 1 month with 62% boveda packs. the room temperature is approx. 18-20°. I have not included many small “popcorn buds” as I process them further. It's a big tin I think max 20-30g. #DrySpaceContest

10 days into flower with the first taste of bloom! Happy with how things are going.. don’t know why my videos won’t play

Sie fühlen sich sehr wohl. Die Fotos sind vom 2. Blütetag. Die ersten Anzeichen der Blütephase sind schon zu sehen.

16.2.25: I decided to check out the lower canopies of all plants to see if I need to get rid of any foliage. I did get rid of a few small branches and leaves. However, whilst I was doing this, I saw more garden pegs from my LST remaining. There were about 6 or more in Pink Mist alone. Additionally, on Watermelon, there were some left in, too. I'm so annoyed to see that because the plants are really stretching, and I could've potentially disrupted this by leaving the pegs in for all this time without realising it. 🤞 that I haven't compromised things too much. We'll see. I watered today with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 containing the following nutrients; ♡ .8g Green Leaf Nutrients PK booster ♡ .5g Ecothrive Biosys I ordered quite a few things for the garden. I got Greenleaf Nutrients Sea K(elp) and Mega Crop Parts A+B. To go with their PK Booster I got last month. I'm excited to try it all together. Next run, maybe just using these. We'll see how it goes. 18.2.25: The plants are going crazy for water! Everything is getting used right up so fast! Today, I decided to add some more Black Strap Molasses to add some carbs and other micronutrients. I'll add the jar with the label in the photos section above. I watered a very small amount to each plant. What I put in: ♡ Black strap molasses 150g ♡ 2g Sea K(elp) Greenleaf nutrients. I dissolved everything in 4ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. 19.2.25: I received the majority of the garden purchases that I made. I'm still waiting for the Ecothrive Life Cycle. I wanted to top dress, but it's been delayed unfortunately. I am using my Greenleaf nutrients products which I bought on Amazon. I got the Mega Crop 2 part system Part A and Part B. I have the Sea K(elp), and the bud explosion PK booster. I really wanted to get some of their sweet candy asking read many positive reviews. Unfortunately, for me, this is unavailable to buy currently. So that's a little disappointing. I needed to do a good watering so when my nutes were delivered today, I got excited 🤗 I watered 2ltrs of dechlorinated water per plant, PH'd to 6.4, containing the following nutrients: ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part A ♡ 1g Mega Crop Part B ♡ .5g Sea K(elp). The plants drank this up within a few hours. I'm going to try and hold off on watering in hopes that my Ecothrive Life Cycle will arrive so I can top dress and water it in then. 20.2.25: My Ecothrive Life Cycle arrived yesterday, and the plants are ready for their top dress and a good watering in. I have some Biobizz Light Mix, Canna Coco,and perlite. I'm going to use this as a base to mix my amendments in. I'm going to fill my 5 gallon bucket with about 4.5 gallons of my top dress mix. I will distribute this across 6, 4-5 gallon pots. Then I will water in well with Greenleaf nutrients Mega Crop Parts A+B and Sea K(elp). I've made a crude attempt to video mixing my top dress. Don't listen to the audio. lol, my YouTube didn't stop playing whilst I recorded this 😂 So anyway, I added the following amendments to the above base mix of 4.5 gallons; ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle ♡ 3 TBSP Vitalink Bat Guano ♡ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Charge ♡ 1 TBSP RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ♡ 6 TBSP Ground Cinnamon.

I have been starving my flowering plants this week to provoke that trichome production. I Will clean out the veg room and germinate seeds for next grow. Half strenght nutes this week as well

Well we thought something was wrong with our white widow being that from one day to the other she was crooked and looking Ill.. so we cut her way before time.. BUT (bud hehe) after closer inspection it was a block of in the autopot.. so she prolly could have bounced back..

Week 6 of growth was another bumpy ride. Temperatures climbed up to 27–30 °C (Celsius), which is definitely on the hot side, and humidity sometimes dropped as low as 40–45%. That combo put some serious stress on the plant. To fix it, I made a simple but effective move: I turned off the exhaust fan. Right away, humidity went up to about 70%, and the plant clearly started looking more comfortable. She seems to be handling these new conditions much better. I did make a mistake this week, though. Wanting to push growth a little too fast, I cranked up the light intensity too quickly, jumping from 300 to nearly 600 PPFD. With humidity already so low, that sudden boost dried the plant out. She definitely felt it, but I caught it in time, adjusted back, and now she’s recovering well. A bit of lost time, but nothing dramatic. The real highlight of the week has to be the Athena nutrients. The pH stayed locked at 6.1 from start to finish, without moving at all. I really appreciate that kind of stability, and I’m excited to see how it will impact the plant’s health and growth over the next few weeks.

Heute geerntet und wow! Tag 83 und sie riecht so fruchtig ! Die trichome haben eine schöne gelbliche ,milchige Farbe. Sie hat nass 352g auf die wasge Heute den groben Trimm gemacht und gewogen. 105g und sie riecht so brutal gut und voller trichome

chopped on day 65 of flower 9,5 weeks flower total

Ya van una semana con media dosis de fertilizantes y una semana de solo agua, queda una semana de agua y a cortar. Las tijeras están inquietas, me empiezo a impacientar por probar esta cepa

Extremely satisfied, yes!! Ive daydreamed about this for 25 + years, germinated hundreds of seeds over the years for fun- but never had the equipment to keep it going Im sooo excited! Seems to be going well so far..

Just on plain water now. The plants have definitely put on a bit more weight in the last week but they're very nearly finished and just waiting to ripen. Trichomes are all cloudy and I can only spot one or two amber trichs so will wait another week to see. Plant 2 looks like it could possibly go a little longer so we'll see. Tiny bit of purple coming through in the buds of Plant 1. Both plants have a real wobble on now with the weight as seen in the video. Have really enjoyed growing this strain. Buds look dense and sparkly. It stinks to high heaven and should have good bag appeal. Just keen to get them out the tent to give the light over to the other plants.

Meine Pflanze wachsen nun seit 2 Wochen nicht mehr. Bleiben bei 77 cm stehen. Die Buds werden kompakter und der Geruch wird intensiver. Die Parameter im Zelt sind gut und stabil. Eine Pflanze bekommt gelbliche Blätter. Es ist Sweet Candy. Alle anderen sind noch schön grün. Leider durch das Licht der NDL nicht so gut zu sehen. Habe mit einem Mikroskop versucht den Reifegrad der Blüten zu sehen aber es wackelt alles und ich kann kaum was erkennen. Es ist ein LED Taschenmikroskop. Bekomme eher einen Knick in der Pupille. Hat jemand einen Tip oder Empfehlung für einen besseren Weg die Trichome zu begutachten. Je näher die Ernte ansteht desto ungeduldiger werde ich. Gestartet bin ich am 19.11.23. Es sind nun 18 Wochen um und ich bin zufrieden. Werde euch weiter auf dem laufenden halten und freue mich natürlich auch mal über einen Like oder Kommentar oder Tip über den Erntezeitpunkt. Bis dahin wünsche ich allen Growern eine gute Zeit.

Day 63 Well there’s not much going on. Just watering when dry. They seem to be doing better. They are fattening up a bit more and putting on some density. I can tell by the fact that they’re leaning more. This is a 10 wk strain, but I’m gonna push it a bit longer til the trichomes are in a better range. They have a sweet tropical smell which is quite nice. Not the frostiest buds ever, but we’ll see how it shakes out. The smallest front one is the frostiest of the round. We’re just on autopilot til the end. Probably a week or 2 more and they’ll be ready to come down. Happy Growing 🌱

Week 7 Flower | 12/12 From Seed Nectar Drip — Bulk, Frost & the Quiet Finish No drama this round. No chasing deficiencies. No heavy corrections. No unnecessary stress. Just stable roots, stable feed, stable environment — and plants doing exactly what healthy plants are supposed to do when you stop interrupting them. This run was built on simplicity from day one. 12/12 from seed. No veg extension. No topping. No high-stress shaping. No aggressive stripping. Just early guidance, clean structure, consistent watering, and enough light to let each plant express itself without wasting energy rebuilding from stress. That decision shaped everything we’re seeing now. By removing the recovery time that usually comes with topping, overtraining, or prolonged veg, these plants never had to pause and re-prioritize. They rooted, established, stretched, set flower, and transitioned directly into production mode. No detours. No wasted momentum. Just one continuous push from seed to flower. And now, in Week 7 flower, it shows. The canopy is heavy. The flowers are swelling. The resin is stacking hard. The fade has started. And the room is finishing with exactly the kind of top-to-bottom consistency this run was built for. ⸻ From Seed to Here — Why This Run Behaved Like It Did This room was never pushed for speed. It was built for continuity. That’s the difference. 12/12 from seed changes the entire rhythm of development. Instead of forcing long vegetative expansion and then asking the plant to completely shift gears, this approach keeps the metabolism focused and directional from the start. The plants stay efficient. Internodes stay tighter. Stretch stays controlled. Energy gets allocated earlier. And instead of building oversized frames that need correction later, the plant builds only what it intends to finish. That’s why this room developed the way it did. Not the biggest plants. Not the tallest plants. But highly efficient plants. Compact structure. Controlled vertical growth. Dense flower sites. Less wasted lower growth. Less larf. More usable biomass. That efficiency is exactly why they are carrying weight now. And because they were never heavily interrupted, resin production stayed consistent too. No major stress events, no stalled metabolism, no repeated recovery cycles. Just stable uptake, stable transpiration, and uninterrupted flower development. That’s where the frost comes from. Not magic. Not hype. Consistency. Stable roots feed stable flowers. Stable flowers stack stable resin. ⸻ Feed Strategy — Simple, Stable, Boring (and Exactly Why It Works) The feed is still intentionally simple, and that is the point. At this stage, the plants are not asking for complexity. They are asking for consistency. So instead of overloading the root zone with ten competing inputs, the approach stays clean, predictable, and easy for the plant to process. Current feed (per liter): * Terra Grow — 2.5 ml/L * Pure Zym — 1 ml/L * Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L * CalMag Pro — 1 ml/L * Power Buds — 1 ml/L * Green Sensation — 1 ml/L That’s it. Simple inputs. Stable ratios. No chaos in the root zone. Why each one is here: Terra Grow (2.5 ml/L) Still holding the base. Even this late, a controlled amount of nitrogen matters. Enough to support photosynthesis and maintain metabolic function, but not enough to keep the plant too green or delay senescence. At this stage, it is no longer feeding growth — it is supporting function. Pure Zym (1 ml/L) Quietly doing the dirty work in the root zone. Enzyme support helps break down residual organic matter, keeps the substrate cleaner, improves root-zone efficiency, and helps maintain smooth uptake late into flower when consistency matters most. Sugar Royal (1 ml/L) Used here to support terpene expression, aroma development, and overall secondary metabolite production. Not magic in a bottle — just one more gentle nudge toward stronger expression in the final weeks. CalMag Pro (1 ml/L) Still important under strong lighting and consistent transpiration. At this stage it is less about “fixing deficiency” and more about maintaining transport stability, cell integrity, and keeping the plant moving cleanly through the finish. Power Buds (1 ml/L) Supports flower-site commitment and reinforces reproductive focus. At this point it is less about creating sites and more about helping the plant continue investing in the ones already built. Green Sensation (1 ml/L) This is the finisher. PK support, density support, sugar movement, and late-stage flower swelling. Right now this is one of the key drivers behind the visible bulking and weight gain. Nothing excessive. Nothing aggressive. Just enough to keep the engine running clean while the plant finishes what it already decided to build. That’s the entire strategy. Stable EC. Stable pH. Stable uptake. Let the plant do the rest. ⸻ Environment — Guided by Plants First, Numbers Second This room is running warm, steady, and honest. Around 26°C with ~60% RH, stable root-zone temperatures, consistent irrigation, and strong air exchange. On paper, some growers will immediately point at VPD charts. That’s fine. But charts do not grow plants. Plants do. Room VPD is useful. Leaf VPD is more useful. And real plant behavior matters more than both. The leaves are praying. Transpiration is stable. Uptake is stable. Resin is building. Flowers are swelling. Nothing is stalling. So the room is not judged by theory alone. It is judged by response. Numbers guide. Plants decide. And right now, the plants are very clearly saying yes. ⸻ Under Canopy Lighting — One of the Biggest Differences in This Run This is one of the clearest upgrades in the room. The under canopy lighting is doing exactly what it was meant to do: keeping lower flower sites productive, reducing weak lowers, and allowing the plant to finish far more evenly from top to bottom. That matters more now than ever. Late flower usually exposes the weak parts of structure. Lower sites fall behind. Shaded flowers stay airy. The top wins. The bottom gets left behind. That is not what happened here. This room is finishing with noticeably better lower-site density, stronger mid-canopy development, and far less separation between top buds and lower buds. Not identical — but much closer. And that means more usable flower, more uniform ripening, and less waste at harvest. The top still leads. But the bottom is no longer irrelevant. That is a major win. ⸻ What We’re Seeing Now This is the transition every healthy flower room should earn. The green is fading. The fans are beginning to surrender. Nutrients are being reallocated. Calyxes are swelling. Resin heads are thickening. Aroma is deepening. Weight is climbing. This is not decline. This is completion. The fade is not a problem to correct. It is the plant finishing on purpose. And paired with the resin production we’re seeing now, this is exactly where these girls should be. They are not just ripening. They are closing. ⸻ What to Expect Next Week Next week should be all about consolidation. Less vertical movement. Less new growth. More density. More oil. More finish. Expect: * continued calyx swelling * stronger late frost production * deeper aroma development * more visible fade through fans and lowers * slower water demand as the finish approaches * heavier flowers and firmer structure across the room At this point, the work is mostly done. Now it is about staying out of the way, keeping the root zone clean, keeping inputs stable, and letting the plants close properly. No panic. No chasing. No overcorrection. Just finish clean. ⸻ Shoutout Corner Big love to everyone walking this one with us. To the platform for giving growers a place to document the real process. To the community for the time, support, questions, conversations, and shared experience. To the day-ones, the regulars, and the silent followers who have been here since the first leaf. To the new faces just arriving now. To the growers learning. To the growers teaching. To the ones showing love. To the ones watching quietly. To the skeptics. To the critics. To the lurkers. To the haters too. If this took even a second of your time, it mattered. Energy is energy, and none of it goes unnoticed. To the genetics for doing what good genetics do. To the tools that help us read them. To the sponsors who support the work. To the growers who keep showing up. Respect all around. See you next week for the close. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

There isn't much more to say. The quality of the photos is not excellent because they are extracted from a direct instagram. I was hoping for a better result but it lost a lot of quality while saving the video. I'll make up for it with the photos of the dry plant trichomes and with the next cycles 😜 Thanks for following my diary and see you soon with the smoke report 🤘🦄

These ladies continue to develop very nicely and lucky stopped stretching pretty much in the beginning of this week and the buds are forming super nicely. Since I also don’t observe a stretch in flower anymore, I decided to feed pk13/14 for the next week. It continues to surprise me how hungry these autos are, much hungrier than my glookies fro example. Unfortunately I realized that the plant on the very right of the box produces much smaller buds than the other two. I am pinning that on the fan right above her, so have pointed it slightly higher, but I guess the damage is done:(.
