WEEK 7 My plant is now well into flowering, but hasn’t stretched much so far. That might be due to the large number of shoots that have developed. Still, there’s already a decent amount of visible buds, which makes me really happy. I expect she’ll gain a bit more height, but overall she’ll likely stay compact and bushy. I’m satisfied and excited to see more of what’s to come. This week, my lamp ran at 600 PPFD, and I watered once with plain water and once with nutrient solution.

This lady smells suuper sweet and strong, very stinky aromas coming from this buds, absolutely gorgeous.

Week 3 of veg. And within a couple of days of the changes, they all hit their stride in earnest. We fim’d mid-week and they all bounced back quickly despite some cuts being a little on the long side. Approx. 24 days of veg. And they’ve now been flipped to flower. So far, the system has proven impressive despite a failure of our run off pump. Just a cheap bilge pump that was doomed to fail and has since been replaced with something a little more durable. We’ve got some trademark NL variegation showing now and they all stretch from the second node very similarly to the SB. Seems as though we’ve got a good gene mix here but the proof will be in the bud pudding. Should have the males picked out and culled within a week or so. Until then - all is extremely well in this tent👌👍.

Loud hashy, pepper, sulfur, rotten fruit, lemon, and Skittles terps. The landraces got nice structure, terps and yield but resin is lacking. I think that's normal. Gonna have to cross these a few times till I find something great that is worth it.

10-05-2021: I am counting today as day One for Veg. Planning to hold them on 18/6 till the 20th of may (ten days) and then switch. Not sure if I will stress them a bit or not, time will tell. Yesterday was hot (26˚C) here so all values have shifted a bit. Won't be a problem as soon as they are on 12/12. Do you notice the lines (air/water) changing position on heat :) Didn't even notice that at first. Also pretty sure I need a more powerful chiller at the moment but will first make an attempt to replace the gas. 13-05-2021: Today I will be replacing my chiller. It doesn't keep up and the temperature of 28˚C is a bit too much. For the rest.. All great 15-05-2021: Added some paper sheets to reduce heat. Seem to work so today I'll go to hardware store and buy something to make a more permanent solution.... I have added some reflective foil to cover the boxes

(Update: 4/20/19) Please stand by while they dry. (Update Everything is going great though! The smell is very strong now; no more cut grass smell. From looking at all three today, I believe that some of the smaller branches will be done drying and ready for trimming and weighing in a day or two. I have one guess for dry weight of Big Lemon, any other guesses?? Remember, the picture of Big Lemon hang drying looks like its two plants, but its all Big Lemon; I had to cut it off to be able to hang it. The amputated branch left of the main plant is bigger than my other two plants alone! (Update 5/2/19) Woah...Okay. So after drying the whole for about nine days, and trimming for four days, Big Lemon's dry weight SO FAR is about 430ish grams of super dense and sticky nugs. Its amazing that I got more big bud than I got popcorn nugs from such a big plant. I have one more 1/2 gal Mason Jar of untrimmed tops to finish, then I'll post pics or a vid of the weigh up and glamour shots etc.. Oh, almost forgot, Little Lemon produced about 40 grams of very nice bud. This surpassed expectations because, although it was planted on the same day as Big Lemon, it was the runt of the bunch because it got pushed out of the main tent that had all the lights and Co2 environment and everything. It spent much of late veg under a very weak light. I remember how limp it was when I gambled on it and chose to switch her over to 12/12. But it was totally worth it in the end! Alight back to work for me. Check back later today for pics, vids! (Final Update: 5219 @11:09pm PT) Its done. Its finally done! I had to trim both plants with my own two hands! So Exhausting, yet so rewarding. So above are several videos of the weighing. Grand total for Big Lemon is 14oz of prime top shelf nugs, and about 3oz of nice popcorn/LARF (they are separated as shown above in a video. Forgive me for not throwing it all together to weigh it, I spent a long, long, very long time trimming and sorting and canning the buds according to their respective grade/quality. I may add one more update to show their respective weights. Oh and little lemon produced about an 1 1/2 oz of prime nuggets and quite a bit of popcorn/LARF, which I haven't gotten around to weighing yet. So, Grand Grand total of Both Lemon OG Candy (amazing job with this beast of a strain, Philosopher seeds) is about 18.5oz, or 1lb 2.5oz for two plants; 15.6oz of which is entirely made up of top-shelf buds 😎 Damn I love SoCal, I didnt even need to run carbon filters because no one be trippin about a lil stink weed. Thanks to those for following this grow! Tell me what yall think! Cant wait to see some comments from all you growers out there. (Update: smoke review after a week or two of cure) This Lemon OG Candy had an extended veg period, about 4 months maybe a little longer, and I harvested her on day 56 of flower (recommended harvest 60-70 days) because of the size/distance to light and her root-bound problems. The results so far, a very uplifting and stimulating quality.

Week 6 Summary: First off, Happy New Year! May the new year filled with peace, love, joy and dank buds! 😄😉 Day 36-39: Despite my heavy defoliation they seem to bounce back quite quickly every time, but this is my first grow so I could be completely wrong and slowly murdering my plants... 😅 WC1 starting to frost up, the two double buds are starting to split themselves up while stretching: WIN! WC2 and WC3 really starting to show their size compared to just a week or 2 ago, really spread out now, and starting to stretch. Day 40-42: WC2 and WC3 really stretching now. WC2 almost catching up to WC1's height, and has probably spread out the most out of all plants when you compare it to a few weeks ago. Maybe defoliating is a good thing for Autos after all? I'm stoked about these. Although WC2 and WC3 are a few days behind of frost production it's definately starting to show itself by the end of week 6. Stoked for these!! These are stinking aswell, but for now the 4AM in the tent is sweetening it up! On to week7!!!

🌿 BHO EXTRACTION & CURING DIARY — INTRODUCTION Welcome, my friends — growers, learners, supporters, skeptics, and the simply curious. 💚 This space is dedicated to one thing only: honest documentation. This diary is a living journal focused specifically on BHO extraction, purging, curing, and cold curing, documented over time, across multiple batches and extraction runs, using a consistent method and philosophy. Here, I will be sharing: • different BHO extraction runs • different batches and materials • different curing timelines • different cold cure expressions • and how time, temperature, and patience shape the final medicine Each entry you see here may come from a different extraction run, but all are made using: • the same extraction method • the same safety standards • the same respect for the plant • and the same refusal to rush the process This diary is not about hype. It’s not about chasing trends or textures. It’s about understanding. ⸻ WHAT THIS DIARY IS (AND IS NOT) This diary is: • educational • transparent • process-focused • built slowly over time This diary is not: • a tutorial for beginners • a shortcut guide • a recommendation for unsafe practices Everything shared here is for educational and documentation purposes only, aimed at helping people understand why different BHO textures exist, how curing affects stability, and what patience actually does to medicine. ⸻ ❄️ WHY EXTRACTION & CURING ARE DOCUMENTED TOGETHER Extraction does not end when the solvent leaves. Purging, curing, and cold curing are extensions of the extraction itself. The final expression — waxy, crumble, sap, full-melt — is written by time, not by force. That’s why this diary will continue to evolve: • new extractions will be added • new curing timelines will be documented • new textures will appear • and comparisons will be made honestly and clearly Nothing is hidden. Nothing is rushed. ⸻ 🌱 HOW TO READ THIS DIARY Each sample or entry represents: • one extraction run • one curing path • one moment in time Some entries may look similar. Some may look completely different. That’s the point. Same method. Different runs. Different expressions. ⸻ 🌈 WHAT’S COMING NEXT As this diary continues, you’ll see: • additional BHO batches • longer cold cures • side-by-side comparisons • deeper dives into texture evolution • and real observations, not assumptions This is a long-form project. It grows the same way good medicine does — slowly. Thank you for being here, for reading with an open mind, and for respecting the process. More to come. Always. 🍯 SAMPLE 01 — WAXY / FULL-MELT EXPRESSION (01) This first expression is the one that leaned clearly toward a waxy, buttery, full-melt profile, while keeping the same golden color spectrum as the rest of the batch. At first glance, what stands out is the uniform gold tone — no darkening, no oxidation, no cloudy patches. The color remains consistent throughout, which already tells a story of a clean extraction and a proper long cure. 🔍 Visual & Physical Characteristics • Soft, waxy exterior with a satin / semi-gloss finish • Oil separation visible on the surface, especially when slightly warmed • Interior is drier and more structured, showing light aeration • Holds shape on the tool but melts immediately on contact with heat • Very easy to scoop, fold, and stretch What’s interesting here — and something many people miss — is that the oil separation is not a flaw. On the contrary, it’s a sign that: • terpenes are still active and mobile • cannabinoids have stabilized during cure • the matrix is alive and expressive This is exactly what a properly cured mixed-spectrum wax should look like. Why This Texture Happened This waxy expression likely came from a combination of: • minimal agitation early in the cure • balanced terpene retention • slow THCa nucleation • gentle post-scrape handling Even though it comes from the same run as the other samples, the chemistry chose this path — and I let it be. No forcing, no whipping, no rushing. 👃 Aroma & Flavor This one is LOUD — in the best way. • bright upfront notes • layered sweetness • earthy depth underneath • lingering resinous finish On low-temp dabs, the flavor spreads across the palate instead of peaking all at once. You don’t get a single dominant note — you get movement. 🌬️ Melt & Consumption This is true full-melt behavior: • melts clean with no residue • smooth on the lungs • fast onset but not aggressive • very controlled, medicinal effect Perfect for: • flavor-chasing • daytime to balanced evening use • low-temperature dabs • anyone who appreciates terpene expression over brute force 🧠 Important Note Even though this sample looks softer and more “oily” on the surface, it is fully purged, fully cured, and fully stable. 🧀 SAMPLE 02 — DRY / CRUMBLE FULL-MELT Four-Month Cold Cure Expression (02) This second expression comes from a different extraction run and a different batch, processed independently — but using the same extraction method, the same philosophy, and the same safety standards explained throughout this diary. While Sample 01 and Sample 02 are not from the same run, they are the result of the same technique applied consistently over time, allowing a clear comparison of how curing duration and natural stabilization shape the final expression. This batch was allowed to cold cure for four full months, double the time of Sample 01. What time did here is not subtle. This sample naturally evolved into a drier, crumble-leaning structure, while maintaining the same golden color spectrum and true full-melt behavior. ⸻ 🔍 Visual & Physical Characteristics • Dry, brittle texture that breaks cleanly by hand • Thin, flaky plates with sharp edges • Matte-to-light-sparkle surface (microcrystalline structure) • No greying, no darkening, no oxidation • Warm, consistent gold tones throughout The crumble forms are not whipped, forced, or mechanically altered. This structure is purely the result of time, temperature, and molecular organization during a long, undisturbed cold cure. ⸻ ❄️ What Cold Curing Does (And Why Time Matters) Cold curing is the process of allowing an extract to stabilize slowly at low temperatures, without agitation and without added heat. Over time: • residual gases fully dissipate • cannabinoids reorganize into a more crystalline structure • terpenes bind, settle, or slowly migrate • moisture and volatility stabilize naturally At four months, this batch clearly shows: • advanced THCa crystallization • reduced surface oil migration • increased structural rigidity • extremely clean and predictable melt behavior Nothing was rushed. Nothing was pushed. This is patience doing the work. ⸻ Purging & Stability Notes This batch was: • fully purged before curing • then allowed to off-gas naturally over several months • never reheated • never aggressively reworked The result is a concentrate that is: • chemically stable • mechanically dry • aromatically refined • exceptionally smooth on melt Time is the final purge. ⸻ 👃 Aroma & Flavor Profile Compared to Sample 01, this expression leans: • deeper • more grounded • more “hash-forward” The high notes are still present, but they arrive later. The flavor unfolds slowly, with a heavier base and a longer, more settled finish. Think: • less brightness • more depth • less movement • more weight ⸻ 🌬️ Melt & Effects Despite the dry crumble appearance, this is true full-melt: • liquefies cleanly • leaves no residue • produces no harshness • delivers very controlled vapor Effects lean toward: • full-body relaxation • pain relief • evening / nighttime use • grounding and calm Same method — different expression. ⸻ 🧠 Important Reminder Crumble does not mean: • lower quality • over-purged • terpene-less • or harsh In this case, it means fully matured through time. Different run. Same method. Same color spectrum. Same melt. More time. ⸻ 🌈 CLOSING REFLECTION — CONSISTENT METHOD, DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS Sample 01 (2-month cold cure) shows movement, aroma, and surface oil expression. Sample 02 (4-month cold cure) shows structure, depth, and crystalline stability. Neither is better. Neither is worse. They are simply different chapters written by time, using the same language of patience and respect. This is why I don’t rush medicine. This is why I let chemistry speak. And this is why patience will always outperform speed.

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.

Beautiful plant. Just moving her around a bit my fingers smell like lemon lime and gas flavor still devolving! Fire!! Looking forward to this one!!

Hello everyone week 9 has passed ☀️ The weather is perfect this year temperature around 25 degrees & humidity 40%-50%😎 For the nutrient i increase a little bit + wood ash from the pizzeria around the corner🍕+ bio molasses🍭 Its like a booster for last weeks of flowering🔥 The buds are fattening very nicely. I force the plants to flower in my garage 100% lightproof. So every morning and every night i remove all the plants from my garage at the same hours 💪 See you next week 🤩

For germination I took the seeds and did the paper towel method and then once they developed tap roots I placed them into Root Plugs. Then I placed them directly into the AC Infinity Seed Starter for best results until they reach Seedling phase.

Wow wow wow... Apollo what have you guys made at SweetSeeds... My dear this strain is a monster and a keeper. Do you want regular-sized plants and buds in 8 weeks? No problem! Do you want plants that can handle any condition even as a noob? Check! This beast of a strain is out of this world and I'm over the moon with the results. I can't believe it. Normally I've seen auto's do 30 cms and some buds on top... This is simply alien tech... I think I have never seen any plant grow that fast... This is something to try if you haven't already... Completely amazed... And this is while making all sorts of mistakes: too hot, soil also too hot in nutes and temp, hotspots in tent by lacking fans, less PH buffer. Stuff I learned: - In my climate: at least 20 liter grow pots, maybe bigger. - Add hydro corn, I forgot this - Less bloodmeal and bonemeal - More perma tea since mine is now too old to use, it will rot the earth. - More often more water, in smaller pots - Better ventilation and routing of fresh air. - Light a little higher also during flower. - No training is needed, a little defoliation is enough. Thanks again for visiting and don't forget, these results wouldn't have been possible without my trusty SP-3000, consider to try it and see what this light does! Hug bud -

I am very happy with the harvest @21% wet to dry that pretty strong for me, the buds were in the tent for 10 days, the long slow drying process has really paid off. The buds were solid and frosty, this strain was very easy to grow, and like I said Original Sensible Seeds do not disappoint, I have a few more strains by them and cant wait to get them started!

5 day flowering , deleted big leaves

Hoy cvumplen su primer mes de floracion, e notado que en una al aplicar scrog y vario estres a las ramas se ve como genera mejores cogollos que las semas que casi no moleste, la mas alta se ve un poco flaca con cogollos llenos de tricomas pero no tan gordos, esperare a floracion final
