Another great week here. Defoliated the girls throughout the week. Continue to do well and very healthy. They drink a good amount but nothing crazy. The frost is unreal! It's even on the fan leaves! I have a picture that shows the frost on the fan leaves. I can't believe the smells as well from these ladies! Cherry smells are strong! I love smelling the plants and my fingers when I defoliate the leaves. Watering daily or every other day. Also adding water to to self watering pots as needed. Starting to use the UVB today!! 🤞😎 Gonna start now at 30 minutes a day for a few days. Then slowly increase as we move forward. They already have a lot of trichomes, as you can see, and I'll look to increase those. I plan on harvesting these girls at week 8 to save the terps as much as possible. Let's go!

Amnesia Skunk Auto · Week 12 From Seed The Zamnesia Way 🌿 Week 12 from seed, and the room is speaking clearly now. The pace has changed. The structure is set. The stretch is long behind us. What we are watching now is the final conversation between plant, soil, and time. This week marks a quiet but important shift: the feed is gone, the bottles are mostly out, and the room is moving into its last phase with little more than water and time. Not because the plant has stopped. Because it already has what it needs. ⸻ From Seed to Here This run was never about chasing size. It was about letting the plant express itself honestly. From the beginning, these Amnesia Skunk Autos stayed compact, controlled, and efficient. Not the tallest in the room. Not the loudest in stretch. But from early on, they showed exactly what they wanted to be: short internodes, dense flower sites, tight stacking, and a natural tendency to build weight instead of height. That is the shape of this plant. And now, in late flower, that early structure is paying itself back. The canopy stayed manageable. The frame stayed compact. And all that energy went where it matters now — into resin, density, and flower mass. This is why reading plant structure early matters. Not every plant wants to become a tower. Some would rather become stone. And that is exactly what these did. ⸻ Week 12 — What Is Changing Now This week the room shifts gears. The bulk is mostly built. The flowers are set. The plant is no longer trying to produce more structure — now it is finishing what it already made. And that changes everything. The metabolism slows. Water demand begins to taper. Nutrient demand drops. Uptake changes. The plant becomes less interested in growth and more interested in completion. That is where we are now. So this week we simplify. Less input. Less interference. Less feeding. More observation. Because late flower is not the time to force more. It is the time to let the plant finish speaking. ⸻ Why We Moved to Water Only (And Why Pure Zym Stays) This week the nutrient stack is stripped back and the room moves into water-only irrigation, with one exception: Pure Zym. That is intentional. At this stage, the plant is no longer asking for aggressive nutrition. It is asking for access. And that is what enzymes help provide. Pure Zym stays in because the soil is still alive. Even when bottles are reduced, the medium is not “empty.” It is still biologically active. Still processing. Still cycling. Still breaking down what remains. That matters now more than people think. The plant may be drinking less feed, but the soil is still working. And enzymes help keep that system moving by supporting the breakdown of leftover organic material, dead root matter, and residual compounds in the medium — making them easier for microbial life to process and easier for the plant to access in its final phase. In simple terms: we are not feeding the bottle anymore. we are feeding the biology that is still feeding the plant. And because this soil will be reused afterward, keeping that microbial life active matters beyond harvest too. The run does not end at chop. The soil keeps going. What is left behind in this pot will not be waste. It will be recycled into the next life — broken down, reprocessed, and eventually returned to the garden again. That is part of the system too. ⸻ The Plant Right Now This is where the room gets beautiful. The greens are beginning to deepen. Pigments are shifting. Leaf tone is changing. The flowers are darkening. The plant is beginning to wear its finish. And with that comes the real reward of late flower: resin. Trichome production is immense now. Heads are fully formed. Coverage is heavy. Resin has moved beyond the sugar leaves and deep into the flower surface itself. The frost is no longer just visual. It has texture now. Density now. Presence now. And the flowers are following the same pattern. Dense. Compact. Heavy for their size. Not oversized plants — but plants that pack. That is one of the most satisfying expressions in the room: small frame, serious output. No wasted motion. No wasted energy. Just compact plants doing exactly what they were built to do. ⸻ Conditions Stay the Same Because the Plants Say So Room conditions remain stable and largely unchanged. Nothing dramatic. No late flower panic. No chasing numbers for the sake of numbers. The room is still run by plant response first. Leaf behavior. Water use. Transpiration. Posture. Response. That remains the real metric. The environmental numbers matter, of course — but only in context. And right now, the context is simple: the leaves are relaxed, the flowers are building, the resin is pushing, and the room is balanced. So we stay steady. No need to force a correction where the plant is already in agreement. ⸻ What to Expect Next (And What Not to Rush) Now we wait and watch. The finish line is visible, but this is still the part where patience matters most. Over the next stretch, expect: * deeper fade * continued pigment shift * slower water uptake * final calyx swell * heavier resin maturity * stronger aroma expression * less vertical movement, more flower completion What not to expect: * explosive new growth * major swelling overnight * dramatic structural change * a miracle in the final days That part is done. Now it is refinement. Maturity. Completion. Harvest may come next week. It may come the week after. The plant will decide that, not the calendar. And late flower always rewards the grower who waits one more day for the right reason. ⸻ Gratitude A run like this is never built alone. Respect to the genetics from Zamnesia. Respect to Plagron for keeping the root zone moving. Respect to the LEDs for carrying the room from start to finish. Respect to the platform for giving growers a place to document honestly. Respect to everyone following quietly, watching closely, learning, questioning, supporting. To the day ones. To the new ones. To the growers. To the lurkers. To the lovers. To the skeptics. To the curious minds. To the old heads. To the ones still learning. To the ones teaching without saying much. All of you are part of the room too. Grow with love. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. All 4 seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 4 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perilite and mix it all together. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ Update 2017-08.20. Nr1 and 2 grow and thrive. Number 3 just got rid of the seedpod and is folding out the sheets. Number 4 is a bit shy and can only be seen if you look carefully into the soil. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-21. Nr 1 and 2 is doing well. Nr3 is trying to catch up and Nr4 is still shy. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-23. Transplanted 2 girls from humidity dome and the small germinating pots to 15 liter autopots. The other 2 girls have to wait a little more before transplant to the autopots. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-27. The girls have settled in to there new home of the 15 liters autopot after a little transplant chock. Now the real week 1 starts for me and the girls. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. New pic and movies. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. Nr3 is transplanted in 15 liter autopot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls. Its no water for 3 days now for Nr1 and 2 so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics with measurements and movie. Everything is looking great right now. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. New pics and videos. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and videos. Gave each of the girls with 2 ml Alg-A-Mic, 4ml Bio-Grow, 4ml Bio-Heaven and 10 ml Formulex mixed in 2 liters of water. I hope they like it :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-02. New pics and the girls liked the water and nutrients yesterday. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-03. New videos of the girls this morning. Nr1 and 3 looks great and nr 2 is looking a little funny, maby a little stressed. Kl. 16.00. Did some defoliation on the girls. Added video. Kl.. 23.00. New videos, defoliation and leaftucking. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

È stata una settimana bellissima! Il caldo estivo italiano finalmente è arrivato con temperature alte di giorno e fresco di notte. Queste varietà sono perfette! Ogni banca dei semi di queste varietà merita il mio applauso di cuore! Alcune sono più alte di me cioè superano il metro ed ottanta centimetri di altezza! Molto diramate tutte si stanno riempiendo di infiorescenze dure, appiccicose e molto resinose con odori intensi e fruttati! Ogni varietà sta sviluppando il suo aroma in maniera impeccabile! Gli insetti e parassiti ormai non sono più un problema, la resina appiccicosa non è gradita dagli insetti! Sono cresciute molto ed in circa tre mesi verranno raccolte, adesso si riempiono fino a che possono, le infiorescenze si stanno gonfiando ed iniziano a prendere forma. Abbiamo iniziato con un po' di Atami bloombastic assieme al top max e biobloom e se continuano così tra circa 4 settimane raccoglierò alberi XXL di altissima qualità biologica con aromi speciali! Odore nauseante in giardino! Un abbraccio a tutti e complimenti ai creatori di queste varietà!

So through the next week. End of this week we topped and from Pheno 1-4 here is how it went. 1) is the most vigorous(homie said might be male we will see) no stall on the topping. 2) 2nd strongest and is doing well i feel like this is the "control" of the group. Seems strong but not overly like 1. No stall topping. 3) one of 2 that had water and light stress with transplant but no stall on the topping and is doing very good. 4) she was the furthest behind and the topping gave her a couple hours of stress but that was a root issue but she literally popped back up hours later. Overall doing really well. Starting to worry though because these will eventually take up so much space. Good problem to have.

9/8/2024 Plant B showing signs of female with hairs coming from the pre-flower formations. Looks to be stretching and starting to push into flower as well. Plant A is growing insanely well! Continuing to defoliate daily by removing larger fan leaves here and there to continue to open up the canopies on both plants. No complete water change yet since a few weeks ago. I have continued to add fresh nutrient water with an occasional pH-adjusted gallon of filtered water + cal mag. 9/10/2024 Both plants and stretching nicely and developing great canopies! Plant A is an absolute monster, plant B is small and compact but has really good node spacing already. I am expecting some nice flower development over the next few weeks! Topping off the reservoir with about 1 - 1.5 gallons per day of nutrient water at this point. Continuing to prune a good handful of leaves and smaller growth from the plants to open up the canopy leading up to day 21 final trim. Trying to stay ahead of a huge stress event for the plants. 9/12/2024 Continuing to defoliate handful of leaves and prune smaller undergrowth. Cutting only 2-4 stems per day to avoid over stressing. 9/13/2024 Raised lights over plant A a few inches as it continues to stretch. Also trying to keep the lights low enough for plant B without burning the side branches of plant A. 9/14/2024 All week I have been adding nutrient water to the system. No water change or replacement. However today, I decided to introduce just pH-balanced water to drop the nitrogen concentration in the system as we transition into week 3 flower. Highest PPM throughout the week was around 900, average 800, low in the PM after pH water 700. Had a minor flow issue with a root plug in one of the drain lines. Blew them out and flow returned. Humidity in the tent has been slightly higher than ideal this week, although VPD has been around 1 - 1.4 with the lights on. Likely due to the volume of plant matter in the tent. Doing my best to keep up with defoliation and trimming. Day 21 flower will be much needed!

July 7, 2020 update... Houston... We have lift off!!! Flowering has officially begun with all four ladies. The actual heights of the 4 ladies is as follows 24" & 26" (indoors) and 21" & 24" (outdoors). The indoor plants are also much bushier and have more nodes. The outdoor plants are looking more like old school autos just focusing on a main central cola. I gave all of the ladies a LST bend and tied them down at a 45 degree angle. This is to allow better light penetration to the lower bud sites and usually results in several branches producing fat colas, not just the top. I am starting to see some bug damage on the outdoor girls. I have been trying to use companion planting of Basil, Chives, Spearmint, and Oregano as natural bug deterrents, but that's not working as well as I had hoped. I also sprayed them once with Safer End-All. Its OMRI listed and recommended by 'The Rev' of Skunk Magazine and True Living Organic fame. I'd prefer not to spray them again, especially as they get farther into flower. Any suggestions for keeping bugs away from my girls would be appreciated - hit me up in the comments. 👍
