# LSD Zamnesia Tripping 🙂 | Drying, Trimming & Final Numbers — Week 15 From Seed First of all… Yes 😄 We are once again dividing the harvest into multiple parts, and we sincerely apologize for that. But honestly, there was simply no realistic way to fit everything properly into a single GrowDiaries update. Between: - harvest photos, - trimming sessions, - macro stacks, - drying process, - preservation methods, - extraction preparation, - washing content, - smoke review material, - and all the little behind-the-scenes moments… …the amount of data collected during this run became massive. And instead of rushing through everything or leaving important parts unexplained, we decided to split the final stages into multiple chapters so every step gets the attention it deserves. Because harvest is not just “cut plant, dry plant, smoke plant.” The final weeks are honestly an entire process on their own. And this week? This week was all about: - drying, - trimming, - preservation, - resin collection, - and finally seeing what these girls truly delivered. For everyone joining now, quick recap: These LSD girls were grown under 12/12 from seed from the very beginning. Minimal intervention. Almost no traditional training. Mostly leaf tucking and gentle bending when needed. The plants grew naturally toward the light while we focused mainly on environmental balance and observation instead of aggressive manipulation. The goal was never maximum optimization. The goal was understanding. And honestly? These girls became absolute monsters anyway. After harvest, the plants that were not frozen for future washing were dried mostly whole instead of being aggressively broken down immediately. We wanted the drying process to happen slowly and naturally to help preserve: - terpenes, - resin quality, - smoothness, - and final flower texture. Drying conditions stayed around: - 18–20°C - approximately 60% humidity And after around 10 days… That beautiful little branch “click” finally arrived. Growers know the sound 😄 Not fully snapping into dust… not bending wet anymore… …that perfect middle point where you know trimming time has officially arrived. And honestly? This is where the room became chaos again 😄 Trim bin ready. Gloves on. Scissors prepared. Mr. Baggy supervising operations as usual. We even gave him a trimming cap so his imaginary hairs would not contaminate the flowers 😄 Safety first. One branch at a time, we slowly started breaking everything down by hand: - separating flowers, - removing excess leaf material, - preserving structure, - checking density, - and admiring the insane amount of frost these girls developed. And wow… These flowers are ridiculously resinous. Not just visually frosty. Sticky frosty. The type where: - scissors stop cooperating, - gloves become glued together, - fingers turn black with resin, - and every few minutes you accidentally create little hash sculptures while trimming. The Zamnesia curved trimming scissors honestly became one of my favorite tools during this process. The pointed curved tips make it incredibly easy to reach deep inside dense flowers without damaging structure too aggressively. And these flowers definitely deserved precision. Dense. Heavy. Compact. Extremely resinous. Some buds honestly felt closer to small rocks than flowers 😄 While trimming, the trim bin also started collecting beautiful material underneath: - tiny trichome heads, - broken resin glands, - small fragments, - and all the golden dusty goodness growers love seeing accumulate slowly over time. And once enough collected… Of course we hand-pressed it 😄 Nothing fancy. No giant machinery. No complicated setup. Just warmth from the hands, gentle pressure, patience, and resin slowly transforming itself into beautiful soft hash. The color came out gorgeous too: light golden, slightly creamy, soft, sticky, and incredibly fragrant. Simple. Traditional. Beautiful. Exactly the kind of small moments that make harvest season special. Now for the final dry numbers so far: Plant A: 287g dry flower Plant B: 107.3g dry flower And it is important to mention: the second plant was NOT harvested fully for flower because a significant portion had already been separated and frozen for future ice-water extraction work. So these numbers do not represent the total biomass produced by that plant. And honestly? We are extremely happy with the results. Especially considering: - the 12/12-from-seed approach, - minimal intervention, - the massive resin production, - the flower density, - and the overall quality expression these girls delivered. The aroma during trimming was unbelievable too. The entire studio became saturated with terpenes: - loud, - greasy, - sweet, - sharp, - complex, - almost offensive in the best possible way 😄 Every movement released more aroma into the room. Every branch smelled alive. And even now during curing, these girls continue evolving beautifully. For preservation, we decided to divide storage between: - Grove Bags, - glass jars, - and a few additional preservation containers. And honestly, this is something we always enjoy testing because curing is never just “put flower somewhere and forget about it.” Different storage methods can slightly influence: - moisture stabilization, - terpene retention, - aroma evolution, - texture, - and long-term aging behavior. Glass jars remain classics for a reason. But Grove Bags are also extremely interesting because they are specifically designed to help stabilize humidity exchange internally without constant burping routines. And over time, comparing these methods becomes part of the fun too. Of course, this is still not the end of the story. Far from it 😄 The next chapters will cover: - frozen material washing, - ice-water extraction, - separation, - resin collection, - drying techniques, - curing updates, - smoke review, - terpene analysis, - and final concentrate results. And honestly… These girls already gave us some absolutely beautiful medicine during washing tests 👀 But we will save those details for the proper extraction update. Mr. Baggy stayed with us through the entire trimming process as always, emotionally supporting operations and probably stealing quality control samples when nobody was looking 😄 And finally… Thank you. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron. To F.O.G. To all the LEDs, gear, and equipment involved. To GrowDiaries. To the community. To the longtime followers. To the new followers. To the silent supporters. To the curious visitors. To the skeptics. To the lovers and the haters 😄 To everyone spending even a few minutes following this strange beautiful plant journey with us. And next week? Things get icy 🌊❄️ Fresh frozen material. Washing. Extraction. Resin separation. And another entire side of this plant still waiting to be explored. Stay safe everyone. Stay curious. And may your scissors always stay sticky 🌱

The plants have now been moved into their final 11L pots after showing slight root-related issues. I’m hoping the extra space will resolve that and allow them to fully establish themselves again. In about a week, I’ll install the SCROG net, and roughly a week after that we’ll consider flipping to 12/12 — but only if the net is around 70–80% full. No rushing. The goal is an even canopy before making the switch. For now, it’s all about letting them settle in and monitoring how they respond to the transplant. Stats so far: 💧 Watering: Every third day 🌡️ Temp: 26–28°C 💦 Humidity: 70% RH 📈 VPD: ~1.13 kPa 💡 Light: ~600 PPFD

Mamba Negra was a very frosty, and smelly autoflower. Has been chopped, and hung to dry. Looks very promising to be some great smoke. We shall see. No contest winner, but got some good smoke out of it. PEV said they wanted to send me some more seeds to grow. We will see if they get back to me. After this beautiful plant, and Moby Dick auto is going monster size, check it out 🌱😁. I will work my way through some or all their autos. 🌱😏 Thank you Grow Diaries community for the likes, follows, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel. I appreciate your support. Happy Growing everyone 🌱🌱🌱🌱

Hello everybody! Here we are a week later and I’m starting to see some nice improvements and developments. This week I fed all plants pretty heavily with Recharge and Dolomite Lime (and a little Cal Mag). The plants seemed to like it, the color is really coming back to a nice shade of green instead of the pale yellow’ish green. The FastBuds Blackberry is a beautiful shade of purple. I’m going back to my normal nutrient routine for one more week then I'll flush for a week before cutting her down. The 2 Blackberry's I cut down last week were kind of scrawny, but I did smoke one of the main cola buds and it was tastier than I expected, very fruity. It also got me HIGH AF!! I'm looking forward to how this last one finishes up. One negative is I seem to have inherited some bugs from my wife. She asked me to put one of her outdoor plants in the room so it would survive the winter, well it looks like that plant was infested with bugs. The little f’ers had a feast on some of the leaves. My wife gave me the OK to toss the plant, so with the plant removed it should be fairly easy to irradiate any remaining bugs with some sticky paper. I’d like to say thank you to all who answered my question regarding recommend reading on cannabis. I’m selecting the answer for the Grow Bible by Greg Green because I was actually unaware of that one. I’m familiar with the Cervantes and Rosenthal versions but not Greg Greens. I’ll be ordering that book after I receive and finish “True Living Organics” by The Rev (should be here tomorrow). This week I have a new question for my GD friends…. CO2? I have not been using CO2 but EVERY book I read recommends using it, I’m not prepared to go out and buy a CO2 tank, regulator, etc… at this time. Has anyone ever used one of those CO2 bags? Or do you have any DIY CO2 solutions you can recommend? I’m looking forward to your answers on CO2. I’ll leave you this week with another interesting excerpt from “Marijuana Cultivation Reconsidered: The Science and Techniques For Huge Indoor Yields” by Read Spear: “I prefer to use high-pressure sodium lamps. With the exception of LED's, HPS lamps are the most efficient source of light you can buy, both in terms of light output and light spectrum. Having read nearly every book on the subject of growing pot, I feel that their authors tend to overemphasize the importance of light spectrum. You do not need to alternate between metal halides (for growth) and sodiums (for flowering). That is an oversimplification of the plant's light requirements. You may do this if you like--it certainly won't hurt--but I firmly believe that the gains are just not great enough to justify the cost of the extra MH lamp.” -Read Spear

Very saddened by the turn of events, 3 herms, 2 different grow environments, but each tent had another strain growing along with it. No seeds or problems with the Cookies strain… I had no power outages, no light leaks, no schedule changes, and performed relatively little defoliation during flower. To me, this cannot be attributed to stress, as they showed no sign of stress or deficiency’s throughout the grow. Long story short, booooooo.

Day 28 flower.! 😏Almost halfway. Had to get a larger area bc the 10x10 bedroom wasn't cutting it. Hard to water when plants fill tha whole room😭. So I upgraded and got a 10x20 workshop behind my house and wired a 100 amp subpanel in there so I should be good for abt 10K watts next grow😎... if I can wire my whole shop on FaceTime with a friend who is a certified electrician then trust me anybody can do it. Yes it was my first time wiring ANYTHING in my life. Which is crazy. It pays to have great friends.

Week 8 and growth continues to be muted. Due to the poor soil, I'm only slightly scratching the strain's potential. I've attached a video of the insects that were in the soil, along with the fungus gnats. Today, the ladies were trimmed a bit at the bottom. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- woche 8 und weiterhin verhaltener wuchs. aufgrund der schlechten erde kratze ich natürlich nur leicht am potential des strains. ich habe mal ein video der insekten beigefügt die neben trauermücken in der erde inklusive waren. heute wurden die damen untenrum etwas freigeschnitten.

April 24, day 35, the plant continues to widen with the LST I am performing, and has nice healthy growth. Lots of branching, but the early stages of the flowering stretch is opening the plant up a little. I switched from a transition nutrient profile to an early blooming profile, as there are a few pistils popping out here and there on the plant. My guess is that there will be another week or so of growth/stretch so I am hoping to get the plant significantly larger. April 25, day 36, I raised the light by 5 inches. I should have realized earlier but I was chronically running the light a little too close this run which likely contributed to the stocky tight growth. I figured that if my brightness was not exceeding sunlight and I was not noticing leaf issues it would be fine. However, measuring the ppfd at a 15 inch hang height showed readings of 750+ at the edges and 1000 at the center. This amount is just not helpful for the plants structure even if it is growing vigorously. I raised the lighting to 20 inches which brought the ppfd to 650 at the edges and 850 at the center which is right where I want it. I am not otherwise touching the plant today, but will prune and perform some LST tomorrow. April 26 Day 37, just letting it grow. April 27 Day 38, did some training and pruning of the growth. The Euforia's transition to flowering has been slow, but the growth and vigour of the plant has stayed strong so at least it's giving me the time to fill up the tent. It's taking up just shy of 4sqft of growing space, so by the time time the flowering stretch finishes I am hoping to have growth close to all corners of the tent. So far I have been successful keeping the growth low, as this tent is very tight in its height. April 29, day 40, just letting it grow. April 30, day 41, switched watering to 3x daily 20 second intervals. The leaf tips are not showing any signs of burn, so so far so good. Took a few leaves off to expose the preflowers as needed.

Girls are moving along nicely in week three, Technicaly day 8 since popped! rH has been much easier to deal with since the weather has been nice. The little humidifier runs all day long tho. Temps also really easy to manage due to an all LED setup! Very happy with the QB so far but I need more time to put an official review for it. Pots dont seem to need water, but i am giving them a spritz on the leaves every morning. I do have a concern, the soil hasn't seem to need water but I am dealing with auto seedlings staring in the final pots. Plants dont seem to be overwater? But I'd like your opinion on them. Please see the pics and video posted! Enjoy and thanks for the read! :)
