Skywalker OG — Harvest / Trim / Cure Part 3 — Trimming The First Giant First of all, once again, apologies for dividing this Skywalker OG harvest series into multiple parts. But honestly… there was simply no way to properly document this run without giving each phase and each plant the attention they deserve. These girls became something special. And with: * multiple giant plants * hundreds of photos * trimming timelapses * resin collection * curing experiments * and smoke reviews still coming later we wanted to slow down and properly catalogue everything instead of rushing through it. So now… we return: 10 days later. And the first Skywalker OG giant was finally ready. ⸻ The Click After hanging whole-plant drying for roughly: * 7–10 days * at around 18–20°C * with humidity stabilized near 60% * and the first days closer to 45% RH to safely remove excess surface moisture the moment finally arrived. That special branch click. Not bending anymore. Not soft anymore. That sound and feeling growers slowly learn over time: the perfect dry point before curing. And honestly? This girl dried beautifully. The flowers tightened perfectly. The aromas became deeper. The resin stayed everywhere. Exactly what we hoped for. ⸻ Trimming Begins So… gloves on. Medicine nearby. Scissors ready. Cleaning alcohol beside us. And branch by branch… we started. Slowly breaking down the plant. Separating branches. Taking individual flowers out carefully. Hand trimming every nug one by one. No machine trimming. No shortcuts. Just patience. And immediately one thing became obvious again: sticky. Very sticky. The dry trichomes instantly started gluing themselves onto the gloves. Every few minutes: * fingers sticking together * scissors becoming greasy * resin buildup everywhere The kind of trimming session where your gloves slowly stop looking black and start looking glossy. ⸻ Finger Hash & Resin Balls Naturally, as trimming continued… finger hash started forming again. But this time differently from the fresh charas we collected during harvest. This resin came from: dry trichomes broken loose during trimming and handling. Still incredibly aromatic. Still greasy. Still beautiful. But drier, more compact, and more stable than fresh charas. And honestly? Watching the little resin balls slowly form from pure trimming sessions never stops being satisfying. A grower’s reward during the work itself. ⸻ Moroccan Drums — Trim Bin Sessions As the trim accumulated, we also continued one of our favorite little rituals. Lightly working the trim material by hand almost like traditional Moroccan drum techniques. Nothing aggressive. Nothing industrial. Just gently helping the loose trichome heads separate naturally from the material. And honestly? This Skywalker OG was loaded. The Trim Bin kept collecting beautiful resin underneath the screen while we worked. And eventually… we pressed some of that loose resin together purely by hand pressure. No heat. No tools. No pressing equipment. Just hand pressure alone. And it immediately transformed into: a beautiful little temple ball. Soft. Greasy. Dark golden-brown. Beautiful texture. The kind of resin that instantly tells you: “This plant had serious trichome production.” ⸻ The Numbers Then came the moment everybody waits for. The final dry weight. And honestly… we’re still smiling looking at the scale. 369.9 grams from a single plant under 12/12 from seed. Absolutely insane. Especially considering: * minimal training * natural structure * relatively compact height * and mostly letting the plant guide herself naturally This girl became a true production monster. Dense flowers. Heavy branches. Massive yield. Excellent resin production. One of those harvests where you step back afterward and just stare at the pile for a few seconds. Because it honestly feels surreal. ⸻ Rock-Solid Medicine And the flower quality itself? Beautiful. These buds dried into: * dense * compact * greasy * heavy flowers Exactly the kind of structure we expected after seeing how swollen the plant became during late flower. The kind of buds that feel substantial immediately when picked up. No fluff. No air. Just proper medicine. And visually? Still gorgeous after drying. The calyx swelling remained. The trichomes stayed visible everywhere. And the flowers kept that heavy OG structure beautifully. ⸻ Storage & Cure At this point, preserving the cure properly became extremely important. So we divided the flower between multiple storage methods. Traditional Glass Jars The classic method. Simple. Reliable. Proven. Perfect for: * manual burping * visual inspection * humidity monitoring * and traditional curing control ⸻ Vacuum Glass Jar We also started testing one of the vacuum-style glass jars from Zamnesia. The idea here is reducing oxygen exposure during cure and long-term storage. Now we’re extremely curious to later compare: * terpene preservation * moisture behavior * aroma retention * and overall cure evolution between vacuum curing and traditional curing. ⸻ Grove Bags And honestly… there was simply too much flower not to use Grove Bags too. So part of the harvest also went into Grove Bags for longer-term curing and storage testing. Again, we’ll revisit all of this deeper later during the smoke review reports once the cure evolves further. Because right now the mission is simple: preserve the terpenes. Preserve the resin. Preserve the soul of the plant. ⸻ The Skeleton One thing we always love after trimming massive plants is looking at the final skeleton left behind. And honestly? This one was beautiful. Not an absurdly giant trunk… yet somehow it carried an absurd amount of medicine. Which honestly says a lot about how efficient these 12/12-from-seed plants can become. Compact structure. Extreme productivity. Minimal wasted growth. The Legends of the 12/12 Galaxy continue proving themselves. ⸻ Timelapses & Documentation We also included trimming timelapses in this report so people can actually see: * the workflow * the process * the resin buildup * the trimming rhythm * and what goes into preparing flowers like this properly Because behind every beautiful jar photo… there are hours of work. Hours of patience. And honestly? We love documenting that part too. ⸻ What Comes Next The next reports will continue with: trimming the remaining two Skywalker OG giants And honestly… there is still so much left to show. Which means yes: this series may realistically reach: Part 4 or even Part 5. And honestly? These girls deserve every slide. Every photo. Every detail. ⸻ Gratitude Huge thanks once again to everybody following this journey. To the growers. To the silent viewers. To the curious minds. To the supporters. To the old followers. To the new people arriving now. To the skeptics. To the lovers. To the haters too. To Zamnesia for these incredible genetics. To Plagron for helping feed this jungle. To Future Of Grow and Lumiflora for the LEDs powering this room every single day. To the entire growing community constantly sharing knowledge, mistakes, ideas, techniques, and passion openly. And honestly… being able to witness plants like this grow from seed into this level of abundance still feels surreal sometimes. These truly became: Legends of the 12/12 Galaxy. And their story still continues. From grower to growers.

Prima settimana di fioritura... tutto procede come deve .. 💪 forza belle piantine mie regalatemi della Apple strudel buona ed efficace per la mia cura🙏✌️

5/6/25 the trichomes on this plant are spectacular and special. The cameras not picking it up very well but they shine so freaking bright. brighter than other strains. She also has a very unique smell. The breeder mentioned that thesr equatorial photo periods that show autoflower traits have a unique high as well and i wonder if thats due to the unique smell/ terpenes shes

Hi everyone...🍃🍃🍃On day 15 I added netting to be ready for top buds...🍃🍃🍃Everything is going well, just watch and water...🍃🍃🍃 Happy growing...🍃🍃🍃

7 eme semaine tout se passe parfaitement bien, très peu de place quatre pieds J'ai comparé par rapport a d'autre 7eme semaine je pense être bon, aussi je vais changer d'engrais après cette cult pour GHE pas la jolie bouteille biobizz qui m'a avait été recommandé par culture indoor 11

This one is always a big yielder with great smelling Kolas. On the dry weight totals, I only used the significant pieces. I did not count any scrap as final weight

* 20/24 lights (4h/day rest) for 3 days.after that we continued with 24/24. * Add some extra advanced formulations from this week. ⚠️ Stay tuned 👇 🗓️🔜 week 7 --> we'll make a review to the progress of the different strains inside the tent with photos and vids.

Got first pistils on 8th day of flowering schedule. Gonna have lots of buds, it is a carpet of buds :D Shame didn't have all 4 pots like this. Looks amazing. I have to say really impressed with this organic growing method, such healthy beautiful leaves!

02/15 (M) - Prepping her to flip into flower within the next week or two - Weaved her under net for better light coverage - Running 8 drip emitters with a 5 gallon res - 45 sec feed every 8hrs. 02/15 (C) - Thus far all 15 are still kicking but they did take a hit - starter roots for all 15 have begun - I will update with pics within the next 2 weeks - Running high temps and high humidity during lights on. 02/18 (M) - Mom is doing great - No deficiencies - Flipped her into flower today - running 8 line feed with 5 gallon res - clean water feeds for the first 2 weeks. 02/18 (C) - The babies to a bit of a hit they are looking a bit funky but they are rooting - some of the clones are growing their own babies - I will let them rock as to seeing they are rooting and showing new growth.

Vamos familia actualizamos la cosecha de las gelato Olandese de Dutchfem . La verdad que el secado muy bien 7 días en Malla y a los botes, 40% humedad y 24 grados es la temperatura ambiental que han tenido en el secado. Por lo demás de miedo os la recomiendo. Gracias a DutchFem, Agrobeta y Mars hydro , sin ellos este proyecto no sería igual 🙏.

Girls are stacking nicely ❤️ The one is a bit more finicky than the rest, she is showing signs of nutrient lockout/ ph , but should be easily corrected if I’ve diagnosed it properly. I ended up calibrating by ph pen and I was off by .15 on the scale, might not seem like a lot, but in flower it can be! Shouldn’t set us back too much 🇨🇦👊❤️

Week went again very uneventful. The plant does what she is supposed to be doing (gaining weight) :). Still lots of new pistils appearing overnight, I am checking the Trichomes daily, however, everything remains milky, with only very little % of amber trichomes. Once amber colours start increasing I will start flushing.

In 21 i defoliated and do lst LETS see the progress Day 22 - recovered for lst Day 23 - Lst adjusting Day 26 - Niceee

Whats up GD !!! ------------- GROWTH------------- She is getting weight and finishing, leaves turned purple, red, and all the amazing colours you see in photos, she is almost ready and it is so frosty, Smells like red licorice, and fruits. Flushing last 7 days. ------------- IRRIGATION------------- 1,5l, watering each 3 days . 1 of 2 irrigations with nutes, and the other with water. ------------- NUTRIENTS------------- Top Bloom (3ml/l) Top Candy (2ml/l) --------------------------------------- Good vibes !! _29/06/2018_

This week was great the smell is very pungent, I've been giving the CO2 lights are (I believe) adequate over 200 true watts on 2 plants started with purpinator as well as adjusting the ph and dropping the temperature. And the added spectrum. Try to get to the Anthocyanins and adjust my colors

They all turned pretty red and cloudy. Decided they were good enough at this point. Another week would have turned them more into a couch lock. The tests have been pretty awesome. It's some very dense and sticky bud. The buzz comes on pretty hard after a minute. It's a creeper kinda deal. Serious eyelid droop with this. Sleep is not a problem. Burn a joint and you'll sleep like a baby for a good couple hours. Very sedating.

Comenzamos la semana de floración con una gran poda de bajos dejando estas con forma de palmera o Chupa Chups. En el día de hoy le bajé dos horas al horario de vegetación de 18/6 a 16/8 en los siguientes días bajo dos horas así hasta alcanzar el 12/12 de manera gradual. Hoy se aplicará un riego de vitaminas y entaizante.

This week went real well! All 5 of the Twenty20 Ogreberry Autos and the 1 Fastbuds Bruce Banner have successfully germinated and sprouted up from the soil!! This upcoming week we will start giving these girls a heavy feeding of nutrients PH d at 6.5 an see how they react , most likely will love it!! Temperature an humidity has been on point, through out the day we reach 70-75 degrees an a nice humidity of 65%which is always nice ! Hope you all enjoy an keep them eyes peeled for next week !! Peace, love, an positive vibes to all you Growmies out there! If any questions please feel free to ask , more then happy to help! Cheers everybody to another great grow!!!

Pics show 1.5 weeks from last post. Really wish I could flip her into flower but still can't. I think she is begging to be flipped. So many pre-flowers. Wonder if pre-flowers in Vegg can get pollinated? This thing might get too big before I can flip. Still growing so fast. Probably because I'm focusing all growth to the mainlined stems. Which are so tall now. Most all leaves are dark. Going to start backing off the nitrogen (FF Grow Big) Also seeing tip burn, as well as edge burn on the leaves. Definitely over feed. The soil is probably caked with salt by now. Stress techniques - - Still super cropping all nodes every other day. See image on how big some of these knots get. All stems are super thick and hefty. Which was a goal of mine. - Defoliation every other day. Taking leaves and new nodes off. Definitely think doing this almost every day is the worst stress its dealing with. - Branch squeezing/tie down. Still noticing heavy scaring or buildup where I have it tied down at the base. Will keep it there to keep seeing what happens. All stems/branches around it have hardened. Also noticing red/purple streaks in areas. Wouldn't say it's the healthiest plant but it sure is a sturdy fast growing one.
