She bounced back from last week. Temps are up and down in the outside environment. Not too much problem here. Trying to sweeten her up a bit with the bud candy.

🌱 Skywalker OG — Week 10 From Seed (Week 5 Flower) “From Expansion to Expression” ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here This run followed the same philosophy from the start: • 12/12 from seed • No early intervention • Let the plants express their natural structure For the first weeks, we did almost nothing: • No defoliation • No aggressive canopy control • Just environmental dialing and observation Why? 👉 Because structure is built early 👉 And once it’s there, you can shape it — not before Now we’re seeing the result: • Strong branching • Even canopy spread • Multiple dominant tops ⸻ 🌿 Current State — Full Flower Mode At this stage, the plants have clearly transitioned: 👉 Vertical growth has slowed or stopped 👉 Energy is now redirected into bud development You can see it everywhere: • Bud sites swelling • White pistils exploding across the canopy • Trichomes starting to cover sugar leaves This is no longer about growing bigger — this is about building flowers. ⸻ ✂️ Defoliation — Why Now This week, we made a move. A proper defoliation, and yes — we went deep. • Removed fan leaves with long stems • Opened internal structure • Cleared pathways for light and airflow Why now and not before? Earlier: • Leaves = energy factories • Needed for structure development Now: • Structure is set • Bud sites are defined 👉 Removing leaves now: • Redirects energy to flowers • Improves light penetration • Enhances airflow • Reduces microclimate risks This is not stress — this is guidance at the right moment. ⸻ 💡 Light & Canopy Management With the canopy opened: • Light now penetrates deeper • Lower bud sites receive usable PPFD • Top buds remain dominant but not exclusive This creates: 👉 More uniform development 👉 Better quality across the whole plant We’re no longer just growing tops — We’re building a complete plant. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Leaf VPD • Temperature: 26°C • Humidity: 60% Some might question this in flower — but the plants are answering clearly. 👉 Leaves are active 👉 Transpiration is strong 👉 No signs of stress This tells us: Leaf VPD is within a functional range Because: • Healthy stomatal activity • Constant water movement • Balanced evaporation The room isn’t static — it’s breathing. ⸻ 💨 Airflow — Now More Important Than Ever After defoliation, airflow becomes even more effective: • Air can move through the canopy • Moisture doesn’t get trapped • CO₂ distribution improves At this stage: 👉 Airflow = yield protection 👉 Airflow = quality insurance ⸻ Feeding Strategy — Full Spectrum Approach This run is using a combined organic + mineral program: • CalMag Pro • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym • Green Sensation Why this combination? 👉 Minerals: • Immediate nutrient availability • Precision feeding 👉 Organics: • Support microbial processes • Enhance terpene complexity • Improve overall plant expression 👉 Enzymes (Pure Zym): • Break down organic matter • Keep root zone clean and active 👉 Green Sensation: • PK boost + metabolic push during flowering This creates: Control + Complexity + Expression ⸻ ⚡ Current Parameters • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 Balanced, efficient, and stable. ⸻ ❄️ Trichomes & Flower Development This is where things get beautiful. We are entering the phase of: 👉 Rapid trichome production 👉 Pistil explosion 👉 Early terpene expression What this means: • The plant is protecting its flowers • Resin production is ramping up • Final quality is being defined now Those white hairs? 👉 Signals of active flower sites 👉 Indicators of ongoing development And the frost… 👉 Just the beginning. ⸻ 🌬️ Stomata & Plant Behavior With these conditions: • Stomata are open and active • Gas exchange is efficient • CO₂ uptake is optimized This leads to: 👉 Strong photosynthesis 👉 Consistent growth without stress Again — the plants confirm everything. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • Bud stacking will accelerate • Trichome density will increase significantly • Aromas will become louder and more defined • Nutrient demand will stabilize • Slight leaf fading may begin This is the phase where: 👉 Structure turns into mass 👉 Potential turns into quality ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude — Always To everyone walking this journey with us: • The OGs • The new growers • The skeptics • The silent supporters • The ones who comment and share • The platform • The community • The sponsors • The genetics • The tools • The lessons Everything matters. Everything connects.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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.

Another week of growth in the books here. I am loving the flowers peyote forum is putting off. Starting to see some purple colours starting on these plant. Also noticing one of the plants starting to lose its colour which has me concerned as I saw some bugs on this plant a few weeks ago and sprayed for them, something to keep an eye on moving forward. I top dressed these plants with 1 tbsp/gallon of Power Bloom and hit them with a compost tea made up of worm castings, Bokashi Pro Gro, Molasses and Bat Guano. This will be the last feeding I give these plants.

I didn't add anything for two weeks, so I added two today, with the fact that I edited what I forgot the last time, I have three plants, each one is different, they are fascinating, the height is 73, 81 and 100 cm, unfortunately I make mistakes as a beginner, that's why my plants are not they are like plants of other growers... I hope I will improve...

I topped both plants once thus far, cleared their lower nodes up to the 3rd node on "nemo" and 4th on "v" names are easier then saying seed 1 and seed 4. added pics and video of day 34/35 for these two. hope y'all can stand the slight off hue from grow light. pics/vids are taken on phone camera thru grow room glasses, when watered the 3 gal pots are heavy and not easy to yank out for a picture.

DAY 71 F: Well a day overdue for the update but I have been a busy fellow in the real world. The Girls scout cookies have dried enough to be considered for jarring. They have finished so perfectly and so damn tacky too. They smell of sweet candy after a lollipop lick. So nice. I have been taking samples the past week of so and drying them . temptation won.lol Idont expect a huge yield from their size but the quality is bang on the money. The Amnesia haze ladies are so so close now . They are rock somid still and have really packed the trichs on , a little swelling has been noticable but not the second flush of pistils I was hoping for. #1 and 2 are going to be left until day 77 at least , so another week but the #3 lady has got to go into the dark period now I think. She was the girl I confused as a gsc too so had her dragon force very early in that respect. Seeing how faded out she has got during the last week has helped drive the decision to get her out now. She will be in the dark for 48 hours then trimmed for drying. They will all be fed just water now to use up the remaining nutes in the pots to the end. The critical cheese is in mid flush of her newest pistils and thankfully is swelling nicely due to that fact. She has a really fuel/ nail polish heavy aroma at present but I can smell the sweet tang too. She looks like her yield could be a good one for what looked like a gangly specimen for the past 12 weeks. Lol . One of criticals finest qualities I think. All in all a good week for the ladies if not a calm one. Let's see what next week brings. Be safe and well growmies.

Took some more foliage off, she is about 95 cloudy 5 amber on the tops so we got like 1 or 2 weeks left before the chop, started slowing down on the nutes and just topping the rezzy with water and will start flushing 2 days before I decide to harvest but I think we will call her good next Sunday and chop at 16 weeks if everything is looking good!
