Well sliding into another week, I'm checking the trichomes and waiting for them to go milky, not sure if i can just check leaves for that. That's what i have been doing. I've been told i'm waiting for a portion of at least half of the hairs to go an orange/bronze color. Weird blotches become more prominent on leaves that its visible (they are just in some leaves) less than half id say around 15 - 20% and less than half of those seem pretty bad. I would like to know the cause if its nutrient lockout or a disease etc. Or perhaps its normal for late stage flowering i do not know

🔥 SOUR DIESEL — The Ascension of a Legend Germination Report — Special Edition 8×8 Last 2025 Run ⸻ PART I — THE BIRTH OF A LEGEND 1. Origins in the Shadows of the East Coast Long before dispensaries, strain catalogs, and global cannabis culture, there was a raw, underground era — a time when growers traded cuts like sacred treasures and seeds traveled through word of mouth. From that world, deep within the 1990s New York and East Coast scene, Sour Diesel was born. Her creation wasn’t planned. It wasn’t designed. It was destiny — forged by accident, survival, and raw genetic power. ⸻ 2. The Accidental Ancestry The story goes like this: A ChemDog ’91–dominant hybrid hermaphrodited during a run, releasing stray pollen that landed on a nearby Super Skunk / Northern Lights female. From those seeds emerged something no one expected: • The fuel-soaked punch of Chem • The acidic sour electricity of Super Skunk • The foundation strength of Northern Lights A grower sprouted them… and one plant rose above everything — the now-mythic Diesel. Her aroma was so fierce, so unmistakably sour, that she earned her name within minutes of her first cure. ⸻ 3. Rise to Mythic Status Sour Diesel spread through New York like fire: • A cerebral rush unlike anything else • A terp profile that floods a room instantly • A clone-only legend for most of her early life By the early 2000s, she wasn’t just a strain — she was the identity of the East Coast cannabis movement. People crossed states for a cut. Growers protected her genetics like heirlooms. Smokers remembered their first hit for years. To this day, Sour Diesel is spoken of with the reverence reserved for royalty. And this diary will follow one seed — a direct descendant of that legacy. ⸻ PART II — THE OFFICIAL GERMINATION REPORT (Special Edition ) 1. Overview & Intent Unlike the other folders in the 8×8 run, this Sour Diesel will not follow the 12/12-from-seed protocol. A legend deserves tradition: • Light Cycle: 18/6 • Future Veg Duration: 2–3 weeks • Purpose: Highlight natural Diesel vigor, structure, and expression This report focuses on one selected seed, chosen from a germinated batch specifically for this diary. This plant will be the face of the Sour Diesel lineage for the entire run. ⸻ 2. Seeds Started & The Chosen Phenotype • Multiple seeds were germinated • One seed displayed unmistakable Diesel traits from the beginning: • Fast, aggressive taproot • Superior symmetry • Confident seedling posture • Sharp leaf morphology She has been chosen as the singular protagonist of The Ascension of a Legend. ⸻ 3. Environmental Conditions All conditions match the main room’s baseline: • Light: 18 hours light / 6 hours dark • Temperature: Stable, optimal range • Humidity: Supportive, with micro-condensation forming naturally • Medium: Identical substrate and workflow used across the project for consistency She will meet the rest of the cohort in approximately two weeks. ⸻ 4. Germination Performance The chosen seedling performed flawlessly: • Immediate germination • Strong, straight taproot penetration • Rapid cotyledon lift and expansion • Zero deformities or hesitation From the very first hour, she behaves like a plant that knows she carries history. ⸻ 5. Macro Photography Observations Macro imaging reveals the intimate details of her early development: • Micro-droplets on serrations resemble liquid diamonds under magnification • Leaf texture already shows thin sativa structure, a Diesel signature • Early cell development is visibly active • Light refraction on hydrated surfaces creates that signature “Diesel sparkle” These photographs elevate the documentation into an art form — the micro-world of a macro legend. ⸻ 6. Early Vegetative Behavior (18/6) Under classic veg lighting, she displays: • Ambitious vertical intent • Rapid leaf development • Strong metabolic rhythm • Balanced early node spacing She is clearly preparing for the explosive growth Sour Diesel is known for. ⸻ 7. The Road Ahead Over the next weeks: • She will continue veg under 18/6 • Macro photography will capture her transformation • At Week 1 Veg, I will prepare a special report titled: 🔥 “Sour Diesel — Rise of the Prime Phenotype” • She will later join the 12/12 cohort, standing out as the seasoned champion of the room FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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.

I've started using 0.6 "grams" of peter's per gallon of water. Not 0.6 mL. I don't know how to enter that. Before I started defoliating they were each drinking a full gallon of water per day. A couple days I misjudged and opened the tent to weeping lower branches. Now that I've defoliated, they each drink somewhat less. Pistols are still yellow. I'm assuming they'll turn brown/red before they're ready to harvest? My eyes are so bad that even with a scope I'm not sure I can spot cloudy trichromes turning amber. I'm not even sure I can tell clear from cloudy. I don't think they're getting close yet though, maybe 3 or 4 more weeks? I put the undersized screen up only because a few colas started falling over. I don't like that I can no longer rotate them but with the defoliation, I can see the back side. These were freebies from lucious genetics. Photo periods. I don't know what to expect from them. Until recently I hadn't smoked since the 80s. I'm sure they'll do the trick. :)

In my quest for the perfect modern grow room, I got my hands on a super cool device: SensorPush. Each SensorPush is a tiny low-energy-bluetooth thermomether+hygrometer. I have 1 sensor in the indoor tent and 1 sensor in the outdoor micro greenhouse. Both are connected to the "SensorPush Wifi Gateway", allowing me to access to the datas at anytime from anywhere in the world. SO COOL! I started to collect datas more than a week ago and it has been already so helpful, I noticed that every single adjustment (side fan speed, thermostat mix/max, window opened/closed, driver dimming..) has a direct and immediate impact on the environment, and being able to see the detailed live statistics is the perfect way to adjust the parameters. I had one important issue this week: my timer was acting weird and the light was turning on 40 mins while the plants were in the middle of their night, but thanks to SensorPush I was able to notice the problem immediately and fix what could have gone dramatical. I love these sensors so much that I've started to dig into the SensorPush API, and guess what: after a few minutes I was able to get the datas showing up on my webcam feed, so now my webcam app is also showing me the temp+RH! SO COOL! Thanks for stopping-by and stay tuned for more big-data 😎

End of Week 12 (Fifth week of flower) The ladies are smelling reDANKulous and are so frosty and sticky I can't remove fan leaves without getting my hands sticky. Next level terpene profiles. I did a final increase in CO2 to 1500ppm. The main top-sites are taking shape. I have been keeping a cooler average temperature - and also keeping the relative humidity lower. Pest Report: None

Day 8 - First official day of veg and both ladies are looking good and on schedule for a couple of changes. Nutrients: 10ml of Hydro A & Hydro B were added to both buckets (10L of water in each bucket) PH: the Milwaukee PH controller was set to work - starting at a PH of around 7.6 - 7.8, it slowly worked down to a perfect 6.0 over about 50minutes. Lights: The lights were readjusted to be 60cm from the seedlings who are all between 8-10cm tall and the intensity of the lights were increased to about 70% brightness. Day 9 - Both plants are taking nicely to the adjustments and I am happy with the progress. Temp and humidity are stable and PH is controlled. Day 11 - The second nodes are clearly visible today for both Chong and Max which would hopefully put them at 3 nodes by the end of the week - right on schedule! Day 13 - The ladies seem to be showing some signs of heat stress, so thinking about adjusting the lights after their period of dark today because they are due to be adjusted tomorrow anyway for the new week of veg

Dec 28 - Both plants are close to harvest. Had 5.5. hours of darkness after 24 hr period to prevent budrot developing. Also moved plants inside tent moreso, and closer to fans. Dec 28 - Watered healthy plant today at 2PM - I'll chop unhealthy plant tomorrow, so didn't water, instead inspected trichomes. Dec 28 - Unhealthy Plant is showing amber trichomes, but also clear - Unsure if I should chop tomorrow or not. Dec 29 - DAY 73 - CHOPPED - Trimmed larger fan leaves (accidentally trimmed a sugar leaf or two) and harvested to dry whole, upside down. I'm hoping for a half ounce per plant. Dec 19 - 11.50PM Trichome Calyx' were observed, there are new calyx' appearing. Calyx' are swelling. Dec 30 - Plant developing more senescence and calyx are swelling. Dec 30 - Trichomes are still clear, but I'm seeing some PM develop so I think I'll chop tomorrow morning. Dec 31 - Nice Senescence occurring, Happy to have left it this last day. Accidentally left temps up to 78F for a half hour. Dec 31 - Decided to push another week as per feedback from GD member. When watering I noticed she was perky after 3 days w. no water. Interesting and likely the frequency I'll continue watering at. Dec 31 - Watered at 9PM. Jan 1 - Removed small fan leaf with signs of PM at the base. This defoliation should help with airflow. Checked newly formed calyx' and they're clear enough not to document. Jan 2 - Buds are developing nicely, calyxes are noticably swelling nicely too. I see some green pistils appearing in the lowest buds. Clear Trichomes. Jan 3 - Watered at 8AM. Woke up to 90F temp. Unfortunately they'd been cooking for about an hour. Jan 3 - DRYING UPDATE - I'm seeing fluctuations in the drying room between RH 49% and 70%. As of 3.10PM @ 61RH after adding jars of water. I want to maintain this RH. Jan 3 - Senesence looking good, calyx' are continuing to swell. Will inspect trichomes tomorrow at latest.

So the girls have been under 20 hours light , just been on water and LAB (Lacto Bacillus) made from rice wash and milk. They do seem to be coming on fast at day 13, one of the Tangie monkey took a day longer to germinate, so is a little behind the other is the fastest. The Bananangie look very similar in size and shape , one maybe has slightly fatter leaves than the other.

As said before, I'm incredibly happy that I got to harvest a little bit. Never expected her to make it, but she kind off did! The smell was pungent and sweet like an amnesia haze should be, hoping that will be even better after drying and curing!

I'm really settling into my stride. The plants are responding immediately to what I want them to do. Plant A has a wonderful structure, with four central colas (the island), surrounded by 8 colas roughly evenly spaced around the plant (the ring). The ring is lower than the island currently, as all colas that form it were originally bent horizontally to grow out. During the period of stress and slow growth brought about by manifolding too early, I was worried, but they all have pulled out of that phase, and are entering a phase of strong, fast vegetative growth. Plant B has a less defined structure, but the basics are the same. Because of the damage early, there was a lot of stretchy growth to compensate. On each plant, I am defoliating the tallest colas to put the brakes on the island so the ring can catch up. I am largely letting the plants grow, removing a leaf here and there to allow light to penetrate to the center of the plant. I have never removed a single growth tip, so there is a ton of yield potential in this setup. The plants are almost even, and ready to grow up and big.

Dane, We all should help one another. Human beings are like that. We should live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another, share the Joint. And mother earth is rich and can provide for everyone. We can Grow enough Happiness, In this paradise, there is room for everyone. We only exist to bring joy into the world and The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Grow High and Give the world A smile. At the end we own nothing more then all our memories, lets make them amazing for everyone, nothing to lose only everything to win. for those who come after, right. A last kiss goodby, a second one, softer and long as a sign, that you are woth it. That Everyone worth, who loved and given. Enought Hippie Talk, now have a nice day and an even better grow, thx for watching by. ((From Seed 🌱 week report:

It's Day 54 Week 08 0f Flower For My 02 Kombucha Cream by atlasseed . And For My Snow White and SpliffStrawberry by Spliff Seeds Amsterdam . So Today I Started My Day By Checking My Tricomes On My 2 Kombucha Cream. The 02 Where Looking Fully Milky So My 02 Kombucha Cream Got Flushed TODAY with Some Flawless Finish by Advanced Nutrients . The 2 Received 80ml of Flawless Finish mix with 1OGallons Of Water Ph at 6.0. Tomorrow they will get Rinse off with ph balance water. Yesterday I watered my Snow White and SpliffStrawberry Ppm where down to 100ppm. All 4 Plants will get a nice ice bath in a few days. My plan is to check the Tricomes on the SpliffStrawberry In a few more days she was still Milky when I check her yesterday. I will chop her down next weekend. And the rest will get the chop at 30%Amber Tricomes. Happy Growing Growmies 🤘🏻

I don't remember @dutch passion

Questa pianta e veramente profumata di fragola cazzo!! E la prima volta che sento una varietà così profumata é ricoperta di tricomi OVUNQUE al momento sono tra il trasparente e il bianco latte, ho cambiato big Bud con overdrive per vedere di ingrossarle un po' di più, ho diminuito il grow aumentato il factor X vediamo cosa ne esce fuori! Comunque fast buds non smette mai di sorprendermi!!! Io coltiverò per tutta la vita solo le loro varietà!!! 😂 Non sono mai stato deluso dalle loro genetiche promettono quello che dicono e a volte anche di più!!!

Hi fellas, 12th week , 8days after the last defoliation ,this lady has more pop corn buds but look very hairy and white like a spider net Follow, comment and share if you enjoy it 🙏 LETS GROW !!!!!

So far it looks like I have control of the nute burn looking at the fan leave not burning/changing anymore. Started finish but started at 5pm and my led goes off at 6pm. I kept flushing till 6:20om but stopped due to the fear of the ladies herming, revegging, or anything that would cause my ladies to start off week 7 on a slow/bad start. Defoiling a little but mostly real bad burned fan leave because I believe your ladies will continue to try and repair them which pulls energy from bud developement. Flushed on 6/1/22 and ended on 6/2/22 all 3 ladies ppm is under 200 so I can make sure they have enough to ripen and fatten up. On week 8, I will do a ice flush and then 2-3 days of darkness while they freeze. Checked trichomes on 6-5-22 and some show maybe 10-20% on some colas. Will harvest all 3 on 6-12-22 probably in the morning which I seen and heard it is better because at a certain time in the day marijuana plants let out moisture and you want to keep as much of that as possible.n
