Gamfin 📓 Welcome to my new diaries! This time I am finally growing photoperiodic plants again.
For this fall season, I chose 3 nice strains from 3 different breeders: Iced Up Cherries by THCTitan (Square One Genetics, Robin Hood Seeds), Blue Zushi by Dutch Passion and Cookie Casket by Barney's farm.
All seeds germinated after just 24 hours. I planted them in EazyPlugs, as always and put them under the humidity dome. But this time, I really fucked up. I put the dome at my southside window and went to university. It was a rather hot day with a lot of sun and 30 °C, so the new seedlings were COOKED in the dome. When I came home that evening, I was forced to see that I killed the Ice Up Cherries seedling and the Blue Zushi seedling. They were just too young and vulnerable for that heat and sun. Miraculously, the Cookie Casket survived as you can see in the picture. So I threw 2 new seeds of Iced Up Cherries and Blue Zushi in a glass and this time, I was more careful. The Cookie Casket has a small blessure on one of it's supporting leafs. Probably because of the heat stress and survival. She is growing very slowly, I am just hoping she survives further and bounces back.
Let's talk about this specific strain. Cookie Casket is a cross between Thin Mints GSC and the Hearse from Doja. It's a collab between Barney's and Doja. I heard a lot of not so good stuff avbout Barney's in the last year, but my seeds germinated quickly and even survived hell. So I am positively surprised for now and just hope, she keeps it up and get's into vegetative phase.
☀️ // Day 1 🌱
Today, on 29th august 2025, I transplanted the EazyPlugs into an EazyBlock. Normally, I would wait some more days but I am not at home over the weekend and I want to make sure they have enough moisture und space. Hopefully they're still alive on sunday. The lights are just at 10 % so the PPFD is around 100-150. I started to count this to day 1 to keep all the plants into the same time table. Technicially, this one is 1 week older than the Blue Zushi and Iced Up Cherries but she got stunted pretty bad because of my heat fuckup so I start the count now.

Gamfin ☀️ // Day 3 🌱
I can gladly say after my weekend trip that the plants really like their new home. Great progress for this small seedlings. She started to form her first real leafs!
I start the count now as the first day of veg, 3rd day overall. Technicially, the Cookie Casket is 1 week older than the rest but since she got stunted pretty badly because of my heat fuckup, I count her parallel to the other plants.
💦 Watering: -
💊 Fertilizer: -
💡 Light: 150 PPFD on all 3 seedlings. I don't want to stress them and really let them cruise. Both lights are on 10 %.
☀️ // Day 5 🌱
Small progress, they go their way. I watered them today with pH=5.8 water infused with root juice. Her damaged leaf did not proceed any further since day 3. She is almost recovered from her heat stress and near death situation lol. Got the biggest leafs still and seems greener than the others.
💦 Watering: pH = 5.8
💊 Fertilizer: 4ml / l Root Juice
💡 Light: 150PPFD at 10%
☀️ // Day 7 🌱
Very nice progress, the plant totally came over her trauma from humidity dome hell. Her first leafs look pretty and healthy. I am now totally confident that she will evolve into a beautiful plant without any further stunting.
💦 Watering: -
💊 Fertilizer: -
💡 Light: 210-250 PPFD / 13.5-14 DLI at 20%
☀️ // Day 9 🌱
Just watering, no new pictures. I prepared their 11 l (3gal) end pots with BioBizz all mix. They will be transplanted in the upcoming 1-2 days.
💦 Watering: approximately 0.1 5l with pH = 5.8
💊 Fertilizer: Early grow nutrients
💡 Light: 210-250 PPFD / 13.5-14 DLI at 20%

Gamfin ☀️ // Day 10 🌱
Damn. I fucked something up again haha. I feel like a newbie because when I increased the light intensity from 10 - 20 % on day 7, I forgot to put it on schedule again. So the plants now had 72h of light. I know, technically you can veg on 24/0 but I did not do that from the beginning so maybe it stressed them. Besides that, I transplanted the plants into their end pot which is a 11 l (3gal) fabric pot. The rooting is in between the Blue Zushi and the Iced Up Cherries. They had now some darkness and I enabled their prior schedule. So they have light now for 18 more hours and then finally get their deserved 6 hours of darkness again.
💦 Watering: 1 l with pH = 6.4
💊 Fertilizer: Early stage nutrients and Mycotrex for the transplant.
💡 Light: 200-250 PPFD / 13.15-14 DLI at 20%
