08/30/2021 - Noticing more gnats than usual. Could be overwatering, anaerobic soil conditions, or both. - Going to set up fly traps, starve both the plant and the gnats of water for about a week. - Will observe any stress responses due to an extended dry period.

Oct 2nd - flushed Congo ((d)Urban Poison and Northern Lights) last night to remove Salts built-up in the soil; 25 gallon min. ea. Guess how pleasant they were to move Back into the House? … down a flight of stairs lol. It may be from the Congo, but I felt like frickin Tarzan afterwards Oct 3rd, - plan is to let Congo dry out for another day or two or three. Natural Mystic may be fed tomorrow depending on the Soil moisture (being the first plant flushed) - when Congo is Fed next, that will probably be the last full-day of Light before Flowerings “Lites-out” - Natural Mystic looks Fresh Oct 4th - top-dressed surface with Kelp Meal, scratched it in - feeding N.Mystic tonight; very slowly…5.5L (reduced to 5.5L due to excessive run-off last feed; 33% of feed came out the btm) - reached a milestone with this Congo; next meal is 7L 5th - steady as she goes - day 3 since the flush, the moisture meter has dropped large enough on Natural Mystic, it was fed 6L over 70 minutes. Will see if the run-off is less than last week from slow watering: No, the run-off was actually more, with slow-feeding. Volume reduced. -realized there was no space BETWEEN THE POTS, to allow for any airflow… so I made some gaps in the floor-plan. Not rocket science, just N observation. Its going to help regardless of whether I can see the difference. 6th - Congo fed 7L, no issues

Was a difficult plant to maintain. Keeping her from getting rot was no easy task but she pult through and I got some really tasty bud, pungent, sweet and earthy. Some berrie taste. Really nice.

She is growing at a tremendous pace... I don't think I will need to train her.

Had a bit of a cat-tastrophy this week. I left my tent open to go and fill a bucket of water, came back and zipped it up. What I didn't know is that the cat got in. Not 5 minutes later I can hear all sorts of shit moving around so I came in to find I had zipped him and and he went bonkers and bent almost every branch on the Skunk. So I had to do emergency tie jobs, but I ended up losing 2 medium colas and 1 small one. Could have been much worse if the skrog net wasn't there to stop them from snapping. Injuries look like bent plastic straws, so I'm going to be watching her closely to see if she herms from that massive amount of stress. Some of the pics have cat hair in them, thank the little brat. Anyway, Skunk is a 45-50 day finisher so I'm going another week and then she gets the chop. Lots of microscope videos today and finally found an amoeba. Also something moving in an egg...what is it? That's at 400x so I think it's a nematode egg based on what I found online. If you look closely at the super zoomed in trichome shot, you can see the reflections of other trichomes...just fucking epic.👏 All the food stops now, too much in the soil for her to start senescence. Nothing but water and FFJ now. New pistils are still coming in so who knows, maybe she'll keep going a few more weeks.

🌱 Week 11 from Seed — Week 7 Flower LSD — The Observation Phase We’ve reached that point in the run where the work becomes less visible… but more important than ever. For anyone just joining us, this run has been built on consistency. From seed to now, we’ve maintained stable environmental conditions — temperatures, humidity, feeding, and watering practices have remained unchanged because the plant has been responding exactly how we want. No need to fix what isn’t broken. This is key: progress doesn’t always come from doing more — sometimes it comes from doing less, but doing it right. ⸻ 👁️ What This Week Is This is a monitoring week. At this stage, the plant is fully focused on flower development. Buds are stacking, structure is defined, and now the priority shifts from pushing growth… to protecting it. Our role right now: * Stay consistent * Stay present * Stay observant We’re still hand watering, still giving them that direct attention, still reading the plant daily. Not reacting — interpreting. ⸻ ⚠️ What This Week Is NOT This is not the time for: * Big changes * Heavy feeding adjustments * Unnecessary stress And most importantly — this is not the time to “get bored” and start doing things just to feel productive. Because right now, overdoing is more dangerous than underdoing. ⸻ 🔍 The Importance of Observation Even if it looks like “nothing is happening”… everything is happening. This is where experience shows. We’re actively watching for: * Early signs of mold or bud rot * Humidity pockets within the canopy * Powdery mildew risks * Any late-stage deficiencies or imbalances Catching something early here makes all the difference. Waiting too long can cost the entire run. So yes — it might look calm. But this is one of the most active mental phases of the grow. ⸻ 🌿 Presence Over Action There’s something else here that doesn’t get talked about enough: Just being there matters. Walking into the room. Looking at them closely. Understanding their rhythm. You start noticing the small things — the details that don’t show up in charts or numbers. This is where growing becomes less mechanical… and more intuitive. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week We’re moving deeper into flower maturity. You can expect: * Continued bud swelling * Increased density * More pronounced aromas * Resin production becoming more visible What not to expect: * Explosive vertical growth (that phase is behind us) * Major structural changes From here on, it’s refinement. ⸻ 🧤 Mr. Baggy Report Mr. Baggy is still on duty, as always — making sure everything is exactly where it should be. Quiet week for him too… but we all know those are the ones where he’s watching the hardest 👀 ⸻ 🤝 Shoutouts As always — this doesn’t happen alone. Shoutout to: * The Grow Diaries platform * The community following along week after week * The OGs who’ve been here since day one * The new eyes joining the journey * The supporters, the critics, the silent watchers * The genetics behind this LSD run * And everyone who takes a moment to learn, share, or grow alongside us From grower to growers — respect. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.

Welcome to week 8, their last week before harvest With extra low humidity around 35-45RH and lower night temps (around 20 degrees), i plan on harvesting later this week. There are some signs of amber on the trichomes, but they are still mostly milky. 👽👉 28/11 Keeping the humidity and temp as steady as possible for the last period. 👽👉 29/11 Planning to harvest later this week, when the ladies get thirsty. 👽👉 30/11 I plan on harvesting tomorrow or 2/12 They smell AMAZING, with a twist that is hard to describe! Very fruity and sweet in smell I have been having the humidity very very low the last couple of days, and it have payed off. They are completely covered in trichomes, its hard to even capture on camera. The ladies are very heavy set, i am glad i installed the second safety SCROG net. 👽👉 1/12 HARVEST DAY The buds are so heavy, dense and the aroma and fruits notes are out of this world! Converted the tent to drying tent. Only one fan (Top mounted, pointing downwards away from the crop, and towards the corner) Temperature 18-20 Degrees Humidity 48-54% RH

Day29F - Buds really taking on form. Smell of banana kicks soon as tent opens, but on touching its more of a banana sherbert still 🤤. Day 31F, noticing calmag deficiency, prior to flush, but looking st other diaries and monitoring her trichomes, she is very nearly at her end. I'm seeing 70-80% cloudy-clear trichomes, so just watering now, pH balanced with calmag to finish to the week. Pistils maturing, trichomes flooding, starting to see cloudy, will try push feeds and water for this week then if she's ready I'll flush next week 🤞✌️💚 Day33F - she has now matured well enough for me to start flushing. Seeing cloudy fat trichomes now covered all over. I'm using RQS led Carson micro to inspect. Started to flush using 2gal each time PhD water with Flawless finish Advanced nutrients. 60-70% run off. Smell is phenomenal. Camera does no justice. I will invest this Xmas and treat myself 😎💚 Monitoring closely now for them amber trichomes.

Day 124 After a lot of consideration I decided to remove Plant 2 has been removed from the tent and placed outside for the remainder of her life, she was weak and underdeveloped so I installed a tomato cage in her pot and tied her up and placed her outside. She will be placed in the garage in the evenings and put back in the morning to maintain the 12/12 cycle. Plant 1 is now solely occupying the tent and will remain that way until harvest.

The plants are growing at a good rate now and drinking a litre each per day. I feed them by hand and each plant gets 2litres every other day. Didn't do anything else this week other than install the trellis on the last day. This plant is on the laft in the timelapse video.
