The cbd rich has made big buds, the stems have difficulty supporting their weight. He still needs a few days of rinsing for harvest. The smell is fruity and a little herbal The juanita have impressive senescence colors, one has become purple with red-yellow gradients on the large leaves. The other 2 also have intense orange and yellow colors, they are starting to be rinsed enough for harvest. The smell is still fruity and exotic but but it seems like it's starting to smell a bit like lemon as the reggae seeds description says. I could have cut the gourmands underneath but I never thought of doing that. The trichomes in the buds are still clear and milky, not as easy to see in the photo as with the magnifying glass directly. I watch every day to harvest at the perfect time. Opening the box means staying 15 minutes watching them every evening 😄🌈 27/03 update

Seguimos terminando la séptima semana dándole crecimiento. Nuestra pequeña va viento en popa en el día siguiente a esta publicación realizaré un gran podado.

🌙 Harvest Report – “The Dark Queen’s Final Bow” Week 13 from seed | Week 9 Flower | 12/12 from seed And just like that… the journey of our White Widow from Zamnesia reaches its crown. A legend reborn, a dark queen grown straight from seed to bloom — no pauses, no compromises, just pure rhythm and instinct. 🌱 From Seed to Harvest – A Quick Recap For those just joining us, this girl began her story under a 12/12 light cycle from seed, or more precisely, 11/13 for our personal shuttle. Instead of growing through a long vegetative phase, she learned to optimize herself from day one — adapting, building strength, and focusing entirely on her single mission: to bloom. This is the essence of the 12/12-from-seed method — the plant is “born” in flowering conditions, believing the season is ending. Nature responds by compressing growth and flowering into one continuous process. It’s a fascinating experiment in plant adaptation — a balance of speed, structure, and survival. And she did it like a champion. Compact. Dense. Frosted beyond belief. She carried herself with grace — a short, shy plant maybe, but full of power, soul, and personality. 🌿 Her Final Numbers & Harvest Process At the end of her journey, she blessed us with 68 grams of dry flowers — and not a gram wasted. Every bud dense, sticky, and shining with resin. The harvest was done whole-plant, to maintain moisture uniformity and slow the dry — two full weeks at 60°F / 60% RH (the classic 60/60 method). When the stems finally made that satisfying click, it was time for the hand trim — using the Trim Bin, of course. From the trim, we collected kief using the traditional Moroccan drum technique, resulting in a beautiful golden gift. Finger hash was dense and fragrant — a sign of her rich trichome layer. After trimming, she was carefully stored in Grove Bags 2.0 — designed to balance internal humidity for a perfect cure. 🕯️ Curing & Smoke Experience After two months of curing, this girl transformed into a true vintage classic. Even after all that time, the buds stayed dense, sticky, and aromatic. The dark green and purple tones deepened, covered in a white, frosty coat. The aroma is nostalgic — earthy spice and pine with that unmistakable 90s energy. On the smoke: pure, clean, and smooth. No chlorophyll harshness, no grassy tones — just a balanced, velvety inhale that brings you straight back to the days of Amsterdam’s golden era. She’s powerful yet relaxing, joyful yet introspective — an old-school soul wrapped in modern perfection. Some of her most special buds are sealed and resting in small Grove Bags, stored cool for special moments. A treasure chest of memories and medicine. 💧 Nutrition Recap Throughout her life, she thrived under a carefully balanced recipe: Aptus: Regulator, CalMag Boost, All-In-One Liquid Plagron: Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation This combination created harmony between mineral support and organic stimulation, helping her push both flavor and resin production — especially critical under a 12/12 from seed cycle. 💡 Gear & Environment She grew beneath the Future of Grow Black Series 600W LED and the ThinkGrow LED bars, all managed through the Trolmaster ecosystem. The lighting schedule featured Emerson-effect reds — activated 15 minutes before and after the main lights — simulating sunrise and sunset for increased photosynthetic efficiency and resin production. Photos were captured using the loyal Sony a6000, swapping between macro and standard lenses to showcase her dark beauty, frosty density, and every glimmering detail. 🌸 Final Reflection This grow was a test, yes — but it became a lesson in evolution. A seed born into 12/12 doesn’t complain or wait; she adapts. She listens to nature’s rhythm, grows fast, focuses hard, and gives everything she has. The yield was modest, but the quality — beyond words. And the message clear: sometimes less time means more intent, more purity, more heart. 🌍 Gratitude & Good Vibes To Zamnesia, for carrying the legend and keeping the 90s alive. To Aptus and Plagron, for fueling life with balance and flavor. To Future of Grow, ThinkGrow, and Trolmaster, for lighting the path. And to the GrowDiaries community, to the lovers, the haters, the old souls, and the new followers — thank you all for being part of this. You can see her full journey in motion — from seed to Dark Queen — in glorious 4K on YouTube. Because some stories deserve to be seen as much as they’re told. 💬 Closing Thought “Every seed carries a story — but only the light reveals its language.” Until the next run, my dear friends — the next genetics, the next rhythm, the next evolution. 🌿💚 🧠 P.S. – The Importance of Drying & Curing Drying and curing are often underestimated — yet they are as vital as the entire growth process. You can grow the most beautiful plant in the world, but if she’s rushed at this stage, all the aroma, flavor, and smoothness can vanish in days. 🌬️ Drying The goal of drying is not just to remove moisture — it’s to allow the plant’s internal chemistry to finish its work. When you dry slow and steady at 60°F / 60% RH, you give enzymes and bacteria time to break down leftover chlorophyll and sugars that cause harshness. This is why the “60/60 rule” is so cherished: it keeps terpenes alive and smooths out the smoke. You’ll know she’s ready when stems make that soft, crisp snap instead of bending. 🍯 Curing Curing begins where drying ends — in sealed containers or Grove Bags, ideally stored around 60% humidity. During these weeks (or months, if you have patience), moisture equalizes throughout the buds, creating a perfectly even texture. Inside, slow oxidation and continued enzymatic activity refine the flavor profile — turning raw plant aroma into deep, complex notes. The reward? A smoother inhale, richer aroma, cleaner burn, and overall more mature experience. It’s not just drying; it’s aging your craft — much like wine or cheese. 💚 Patience transforms product into passion. Two weeks of drying and at least a month (or two!) of curing will elevate any harvest from good to unforgettable. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Day 14, some supercropping Day 15 .. it’s under control 😂🤣 Day 19 lights almost maxed to tent height unless I zip tie led to the top ceiling frame, last bit of monster cropping. Lost 2 top nugs to physical led burn but it’s ok. Everything is fine. Still going very hard on soluble N, and Pk along with b+, fishsh!t, microbial mass, humic acid. Carbs every day with organic booster

Also a fastbuds purple lemonade in a 11 litre pot (30grams)a a original cheese in a 2 litre pot(experimenting)which is not ready yet. Strawberry pie.....wow so impressed with the yield but also the looks are amazing and smells like strawberries... who’d of thought it lol. Recommend to everybody will defo grow again. Fastbuds are killing the auto game!👊🏻

Day 57-63 Week 9 Halfway through last week, I noticed a issue with a wilting, deep water culture bucket. I realized there was a possibility I created an imbalanced solution for my plant that shuts them out, even though it was in the correct p.H range I probably encouraged mold or stagnant root growth. They are all picking up.Don't look stressed.They look happy and pointing towards the light.

Autos are just starting to flower the photos are dying for some bigger pots. I've been trying to bring up the overall plant health in general since moving everything to a basement the temps are a little lower than ideal. I had a space heater delivered today and monitored the temps but they only went up to around 78°f I want it to be atleast 82°f ideally 85. The heater uses 1500 watt and only increased it about 2 or 3°. I dont think it's worth the extra cost for such little boost. I'm thinking about returning the heater and throwing a 1000w hps in one of the other tents and see if that will raise it anymore. Especially with LED and co2 higher temps would be very beneficial in veg and early flower but the room is so big its gunna be tough to pull off without killing me on electric costs. Any suggestions are welcome. I know this room does decent in flower but I havnt done much veg work down here and I'll have some autos growing this round so it's important I get it up.

Another good week. They got their first real water twice this week. They are enjoying the high humidity and temps. Right on track so far and hoping they keep it up!

Flowering Week 7 (2) - Flowering: 09.03.2026 - 16.03.2026

You walk into the back yard and it’s a straight face punch of smells. Looking like some indoor rn moved all plants to safer place in case storm hits so now I atleast have a wind break

so were almost at harvest, have begun flushing this last week and hopefully will be chopping beginning of next week, then the cure... CAN NOT WAIT TO BUST UP SOME OF THESE NUGS AND PACK THEM IN THE BON 😆

👋Top is a clean cut, no confusion for the plant, road ahead is clear, by completely removing the main growth tip, the auxin source is eliminated. The plant permanently halts vertical growth from that main stem and immediately sends its energy and hormones to the two new, evenly spaced branches just below the cut. Fimming slightly different because a small tuft of the top growth is left behind, the auxin disruption is temporary and less severe. The plant recovers more quickly and sends its energy to multiple surrounding growth points, often creating four or more new shoots from the same spot. It will eventually regain some vertical dominance after a few weeks if left to its own devices, but with a little more LST, bending the apex to the same height as the rest of the internodes, this shatters dominance, hopefully creating around 8-9 main shoots growing at equal height once recovered and grown out. Reduced environmental intensity for now and let her focus on dealing with this new stress for a week or two. When H+ ions are added to soil, the first nutrient displaced from exchange sites is typically aluminum (Al3+), if it's present, followed by calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), and potassium (K+), because aluminum and these base cations have different binding strengths. The order of displacement depends on the lyotropic series, where ions with a higher positive charge and those with weaker binding strengths are displaced first. The specific order of nutrient displacement is determined by the lyotropic series, which ranks the strength with which cations are adsorbed by soil particles: Al3+: Most strongly adsorbed, so if present, it will be displaced by H+ ions, leading to increased solubility of aluminum and potential plant toxicity. Ca2+: Displaced next, as it is more strongly bound than Mg2+ or K+ but less than Al3+. Mg2+ and K+: Displaced after Ca2+. The displaced nutrients can be lost from the root zone through leaching, becoming unavailable to plants. As H+ ions increase, the proportion of acid cations (H+ and Al3+) on the exchange sites increases, while base cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+) decrease, resulting in a lower soil pH. The amount of photosynthesis (water splitting) directly determines the availability of H+ ions (protons) in a plant. 90% of water is for cooling of photosynthetic apparatus the other 10% is split for its H+ among others things. Carbon sugars, like glucose, do oxidize in soil through a process primarily driven by microorganisms, which break down these sugars for energy. This oxidation converts the sugars into carbon dioxide (CO2) through cellular respiration, a key part of the soil carbon cycle, though some carbon may also be incorporated into soil organic matter. The rate and extent of sugar oxidation depend on factors like oxygen availability, the presence of Fe oxides, and soil redox conditions, which can all influence the process. My understanding of why we flush. Just plain water, what does it do? Strips the medium of salts and nutrients making it empty. What does that do? Triggers nutrient recycling within the plant. What's nutrient recycling? It is a natural part of plant senescence, which can be triggered once you know the switches. A 24:1 carbon-to-nitrogen ratio will also trigger. Why won't it trigger autophagy for me? Nitrogen needs to be gone, gone, gone almost. Ammoniacal (organic) nitrogen takes 4-5 times more water to separate it from soil particles than nitrates so what happens is most people jist flush the nitrates, leave all the ammoniacal in there and this prevents autophagy initiating. Nitrogen decays differently depending on its form during the dry. Ammoniacal nitrogen will oxidize in the air, leaving no trace. But nitrates do no decay and turn volatile and smelly and remain trapped until smoked, no matter how long you cure it does not oxidize. This is why you need to trigger it and begin the denitrfication process prior to harvest to get rid of all the nitrates. Otherwise, you will smoke it. Flush till autophagy begins, just make sure you add no nitrogen afterwards. Micronutrients for trichomes. Don't leave the medium empty for 2 weeks, that does nothing but reduce yield 10%ish. Trichomes are another thing. Trichomes themselves are not directly affected by flushing; rather, flushing affects the plant's nutrient uptake, which influences the development and final state of the trichomes. Trichomes are filled with antioxidants in the last weeks, which is what makes them cloudy. A lot of the processing of antioxidants requires energy and nutrients (mostly micronutrients ), so you don't want that soil empty for 2 weeks, you just want the carbon nitrogen ratio 24:1and no higher. She still wants what she needs to ripen. Processing antioxidants is energy-intensive; heat and light accelerate the rate at which THC converts to CBN. This is why you lower DLI, lower temps. By doing so, you reduce the oxidative workload caused by photosynthesis, which opens up the oxidative capacity for the production of antioxidants. THC is mostly processed at night when the plant's oxidative capacity is generally moreso "free and available" for work

Mar 24: Watering till runoff now... runoff ppm was 2500+... Will be using very mild nutes to flush over 1 - 3 feeds... or until I am near my input. Mar 26: Continuing to use 650ppm feed with bloom focus, 2L per plant gives 15% runoff... Runoff ppm is still very high... I wanted to check pH of runoff but the color is so vibrant i cant use the pH drops to view color, need to get a pH probe. Plants are thriving, no issues at all. the extra fan fixed the post-water droop. One plant is bushy and has the most bud sites, One is the smallest but has the most uniform structure, this one has the biggest buds and thickest stalk, One is about in the middle of the 2. Mar 29: one of these girls gets droopy early when its time for water, thought the canopy was too high so i tied down some more, no cigar... gonna try increasing calmag, if that doesent work im going to reposition in the grow box to a side instead of middle, may not need the upper end ppfd...
