🌱 Skywalker OG — Week 6 From Seed 12/12 From Seed · Transition Into Flower ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — From Seed to Now Skywalker OG has been grown 12/12 from seed from day one. No veg phase, no forced speed — just letting the plant express itself naturally while guiding structure gently. From early life, our approach has been: • Leaf bending instead of topping • Minimal stress, frequent observation • No rush — letting the plant tell us when it’s ready Up until now, all work has focused on: • Building a strong, open frame • Keeping internodes exposed to light • Preparing the plant for flower without shocking it Week 6 from seed marks an important moment: 👉 The transition into flower structure, even if pistils are only just starting to show. This week is less about growth speed — and more about setting the stage. ⸻ ✂️ Canopy Work & Plant Training (This Week) This week we went a little harder than usual, on purpose. What We Did • Continued leaf bending, but with more intention • Light lollipopping of the lower, shaded growth • Selective defoliation (not a strip-down, not a clean shave) • Introduced plastic clamps to guide branches outward Why We Did It Leaf removal • Improves airflow inside the plant • Reduces humidity pockets • Helps light reach meaningful flower sites • Removes leaves that were blocking, not contributing Lollipopping (light) • Cleans up growth that would never reach the canopy • Helps the plant redirect energy upward • Makes future watering and airflow cleaner Clamps & bending • Opens the plant instead of stacking it • Creates multiple dominant tops • Avoids cutting or topping stress • Allows gradual correction instead of forcing angles We don’t see this as “defoliation” in the aggressive sense. We see it as guidance and clarification. Nothing here is done in one session or out of frustration. Everything is done slowly, plant by plant, read by feel. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update • Day temperature: ~28°C (successfully raised) • Humidity: ~65% • PPFD: ~600–850 (based on plant height and position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm As outside temperatures remain cooler, the room itself has naturally become its own heat source: • More plant mass • Higher light intensity • Under-canopy lighting added This allowed us to stabilize the environment without forcing heaters or extremes, which is exactly how we like to work. Airflow • Vortex extraction • Cross-winds with multiple fans • Constant, gentle movement across the canopy No leaf flutter chaos — just steady motion. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy This week marks a clear nutritional transition. • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 (transitioning to 6.0+ from now on) From this point forward: 👉 All feedings will be pH 6.0 and above Why Higher pH Now? As plants enter flowering, their nutrient priorities shift. A slightly higher pH improves availability of key elements needed for: • Flower initiation • Structural development • Energy transfer Nutrient Changes • ✅ Introduced: Terra Bloom — 5 ml/L • ❌ Removed: Terra Grow Simple, clean transition — no stacking, no panic feeding. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week Expect: • Stretch continuation • Tops adjusting to new light exposure • Faster response at exposed nodes • More visible flower initiation Do NOT expect: • Immediate bud stacking • Explosive flower size • Perfect symmetry overnight This week is about positioning, not payoff. The work done now decides how easy (or hard) the next 4–6 weeks will be. ⸻ 🧠 Final Notes This is our way of reading the garden. It’s our humble opinion, shaped by experience, observation, and patience. Everyone is encouraged to: • Try this technique • Try other techniques • Combine techniques • Or do the exact opposite Plants are teachers — not rules. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You Big thanks to: • Grow Diaries for the platform • Our sponsors and supporters • The OGs who’ve been here since day one • The new faces joining the journey • The lovers • The haters (they keep things interesting 😄) And most of all — the community that keeps learning 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.

As said before, I'm incredibly happy that I got to harvest a little bit. Never expected her to make it, but she kind off did! The smell was pungent and sweet like an amnesia haze should be, hoping that will be even better after drying and curing!

These buds were giants, fat and sticky, the aroma of these plants was very robust with heavy aromas with subtle hints of citrus, fruity sweetness, with hints of sour diesel, I could swim in the smell, these buds just blew me away!

7/11 early flowering stage, slight defoliated, Tap water only

It's been a pretty good week for this plant. She's definitely in the bulking and maturing stage now. I was pretty surprised at how much purple coloring she started to put on throughout the week. I think she's going to be a fairly pretty plant by the end of the grow. She's building trichomes nicely and seems to be handling her environment and feeding schedule happily. I'm sure next week she'll have changed even more and keep surprising me. Grow Setup: @marshydro SP6500 LED. 2x4x6 growtent. @greenbuzzliquids fertilizer line. Happy growing everyone. ✌️

Welcome to my Super Silver Haze week 2, genetics by: Zamnesia seeds Looking great, kinda fast for a haze by the looks, but very happy. Probably transplant tomorrow. ....tranplanted a couple hours later ++ some hash oil cartridges for coming weeks, and some high grade morrocan hash rosin

Die dritte Woche ist gestartet. Wächst bisher wie sie soll und das ziemlich flott. Darf gerne so weitergehen.. Habe die Lichtintensität etwas herunter geregelt, die Blätter kräuseln sich etwas. 18.03. Entwickelt sich und wächst sehr schön. Denke am Ende der Woche wird umgetopft. Und auch hier bleibe ich bei 30 Liter Stofftöpfen. Als Drainageschicht kommen Plagron Pebbles zum Einsatz, ca. 3cm. Darüber ein Mix aus Plagron light mix, Plagron Batmix und zusätzlich etwa 10% Perlite. Als Dünger nehme ich den Greenhouse biogrow. Davon 3 g pro Liter Substrat, also 90 g. Wird direkt mit der Erdmische gut vermischt. Das neue zu Hause wartet bereits auf die Damen.. 19.03. Umzug ins größere Zelt und Pott. Leider sind mir dabei ein paar Wurzeln abgerissen, hoffe der Schaden hält sich in Grenzen.. Habe zur leichteren Handhabung Drehteller unter die Untersetzer getan😅 isoliert zusätzlich vom kalten Kellerboden. 21.03. Habe mich entschieden an Tag 21 zu toppen und zwar oberhalb der 2. Nodie. Direkt das Training gestartet. Jetzt darf sie sich erstmal davon erholen..

Semana 9 julho - 15 julho 9 julho - feed day - bloombastic 0.5ml/l - causou uma ligeira queima de nutrientes aparentemente. 12 julho - feed day (2L) 14 julho (02h00) - feed day 2L: Calmag - 2ml; bloombastic - 1ml; bio grow 5ml pH 6.6 15 julho (21h00) - feed day - aumentei a nutrição da BioBizz

Day 1 - 7 L watering with around 1000 ppm and 6.5 ph Day 3 - 7 L watering with around 950 ppm and 6.4 ph Day 5- 7 L watering with around 850 ppm and 6.3 ph Day 7- 7 L watering with around 850 ppm and 6.3 ph During this and last week plants got a few burn tips so I am starting to reduce nutrients gradually and will finish of with 1-2 weeks of R/O water. First Peyote is getting big and is growing new sets of white hairs, Both Cheeses is much smaller and less frosty while Second Peyote is having lots of orange hairs and by the looks of it is only a few weeks away. Still Hoping to harvest all at the same time and will try to time the harvest in that timeframe so all plants are ready. So around 3-4 more weeks seems to be the case.

Great week again with this plant! Going to let her go as long as she takes, waiting for a little more amber in the trichomes.

Cantaloupe haze needed a good flush brought runoff from 2000 ppm to 1100ppm will continue to monitor.

Always R.O Water Watering the plant 3 times for per week 1st Watering with nutriens. (750 ppm) (13.03.2023) 4 liter 2st Watering with nutriens. (750 ppm) (16.03.2023) 3 liter 3st Watering with only R.O water & CalMag. (300 ppm) 4 liter 1000 PPFD

Lamp Brightness: 75% @ 26.2" - estimated 560 PAR Feeding schedule once-a-week, all other waterings strictly water-only IPM 4oz per gal EM5 solution foliar spray + applied directly to mulch/cover crop (before lights-out) - once a week Feeding: 1/8 tsp per gallon yucca extract 1/8 tsp per gallon big 6 micronutrients 1/2 tsp per gallon rootwise mycrobe complete 1 tsp per gallon grower's secret organic soy hydrolysate Day after feeding, soil is given a sst of organic fenugreek, lentils, kamut, mung, and adzuki beans Note: mulch layer too thick, had to disturb during the week and re-apply 12 seed cover crop for posterity, at the end of week 4 clones were taken of each plant genotype

Week 2 Flowering - day 13 of flower - day 69 of life Jealousy is another one I am happy with. Leaves seem to be praying 😍 Bud sides are not looking big but overall the plant is great(in my point of view). I will do a nice defoliation and lollipoping once they complete 3 weeks of flowering. For now trying my best to help them fatten up and get tasty 🙏🏼

Hey everyone 😊. Welcome to the last week 😃. She looks beautiful :-) Her buds, the smell, everything is just right 😍. I can't wait to try it for the first time in a few weeks 😄. It will be harvested in the next 2-3 days. There will also be another update during the drying process before the final harvest update comes 😃.

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!!!

The flowering started! I'm very excited to see those first little white "hairs" in my plants. Everything is going well, the stems are getting thicker and flowers are groing very fast. I'll keep you all updated with this, send me good vibes!

Here we are this girl is flowering fast. So I do not think this is purple haze unless it is the fast flowering version.But even then, I don't think it is based off of other characteristics... So I legit have a mystery plant on my hands.. I will say she's getting frosty. It's super super early yet, and she's already frosting up, so I am happy about that.. I hope everyone is doing well.. Shout out to Herbies Seeds idk what this is but it looks like.It's gonna be good either way.. God bless him happy growing ✌️

Welcome to week six! 🌱 Week five was a complete success – all parameters are perfectly aligned. I’ve increased the water conductivity to a solid 3000 and bumped the CO2 level up to 1200 🌿. Light intensity is now set at 1400 µmol in the center and 1000 at the edges, which will keep the plants strong in their generative state 🌞. I’ll maintain these levels until the end of the third week and then start slowly removing the large fan leaves to ensure the buds get plenty of light 💡✨. I’m also trying something new to activate the “Emerson effect” 🌄: I’m running the deep red lights for 5 minutes before sunset and for another 5 minutes after the day ends. This should give the plants a final boost in photosynthesis, helping to maximize their growth potential! Everything’s looking fantastic so far! The Black Cherry has rooted well across different experimental setups, and at the end of the grow, I’ll provide a full report on the best care techniques for both strains 🌺👌. Willkommen in Woche sechs! 🌱 Die fünfte Woche lief perfekt – alle Parameter stimmen. Ich habe die Leitfähigkeit des Wassers auf satte 3000 erhöht und den CO2-Gehalt auf 1200 angehoben 🌿. Die Lichtstärke beträgt jetzt 1400 µmol in der Mitte und 1000 am Rand, was dafür sorgen wird, dass die Pflanzen stark im generativen Zustand bleiben 🌞. Ich werde diese Werte bis Ende der dritten Woche beibehalten und dann langsam damit beginnen, die großen Sonnensegel zu entfernen, damit die Blüten ordentlich Licht abkriegen 💡✨. Zusätzlich probiere ich etwas Neues aus, um den „Emerson-Effekt“ zu aktivieren 🌄: Ich lasse das tiefrote Licht 5 Minuten vor Sonnenuntergang und 5 Minuten nach dem Ende des Tages weiterlaufen. Das sollte der Photosynthese einen letzten Schub geben und das Wachstum der Pflanzen maximal fördern! Bis jetzt sieht alles fantastisch aus! Die Black Cherry ist in verschiedenen Versuchsreihen gut angewachsen, und am Ende des Grows werde ich einen ausführlichen Bericht darüber abgeben, wie sich die beiden Sorten am besten pflegen lassen 🌺👌.

I broke the mainstem performing LST😬🙄😳...Idiot 🎭... Repaired her with some tape, Guess no more LST training for her hehehe.. Actually, she started performing better after the break 🤷‍♂️...So perhaps it was a blessing 🙌. No nutes,No problems
