Before starting this final smoke review, I want to quickly apologize once again for the harvest report being uploaded on the previous flowering week instead of the official harvest tab. GrowDiaries has been acting a little complicated lately with harvest and smoke review updates, and instead of risking losing photos or information again, I decided to play it safe and upload everything there. So all the harvest, drying and trimming photos are already available in the previous report for everyone who wants to check the full process visually. 🌱 With that said… Welcome to the final chapter of this beautiful Amnesia Skunk journey. ✨ This report focuses mainly on the curing process, trimming philosophy, smoke review, aromas, preservation, and everything that happened AFTER harvest day. Because honestly… harvest is not the end. It’s just the beginning of the flower becoming medicine. After drying, every single bud was carefully hand trimmed, exactly like explained in the previous report. No machines. No shortcuts. No aggressive trimming. Just scissors, trim bins, patience, and intention. Hand trimming is slower, yes. But it preserves the integrity of the flower in a completely different way. The shape stays natural, the resin stays attached, the trichomes stay protected, and the flower keeps its personality instead of becoming overly processed. Everything was saved. The flowers. The sugar leaf. The trim-bin collection. The resin from the scissors. Even the finger hash that naturally builds up while trimming sticky flowers for hours. And honestly… these girls were incredibly generous. The trim-bin collection itself produced beautiful little resin balls full of aroma and character. Sticky, soft, fragrant, and surprisingly potent for something many people would simply throw away. And now… after months of curing… we are finally smoking this beautiful medicine. And wow. This one is honestly difficult to explain properly. The best way I can describe it is: it feels like a sunset walk on the beach. Warm. Gentle. Uplifting. Comforting. Peaceful. Colorful. She’s fruity. She’s punchy. She’s sweet. She touches herbal notes without becoming earthy. She’s fresh but deep at the same time. It’s one of those profiles that somehow feels like everything and nothing simultaneously. Nothing screams too loudly. Nothing dominates. Everything works together. Both phenos ended up being surprisingly similar in terpene profile as well. Different plants, same soul. And curing only made everything better. The aromas did not disappear with time. They intensified. Every jar opening became louder, deeper, sweeter, smoother and more aromatic than before. The inhale became softer, the exhale became creamier, and the overall smoking experience became incredibly comfortable over time. This is a long-lasting flower too. Not only in terms of effect duration, but also in how long the flavor stays dancing in the mouth after exhaling. The buds themselves stayed extremely dense and compact all the way through cure. Beautifully structured flowers with that satisfying weight and firmness you instantly notice when holding them. One thing that genuinely surprised me during curing was comparing storage methods. Part of the flower was cured traditionally in glass jars. Another part was stored inside the Zamnesia metal vacuum curing containers that came with the setup. And honestly… I noticed a difference. The flower stored inside the vacuum container seemed to preserve aromas slightly better and felt more expressive when opening the container. The terpene profile felt a little louder, brighter and fresher compared to the traditional glass jars. And that actually makes sense. Oxygen is one of the biggest enemies of long-term terpene preservation. Vacuum-style storage reduces the amount of oxygen surrounding the flower, slowing oxidation and helping preserve volatile aromatic compounds for longer periods. It doesn’t magically change the flower. But it absolutely helps preserve what is already there. And with a terpene profile like this one… preservation matters. As for effects… This is simply happy medicine. Not chaotic. Not overwhelming. Not heavy. Just… genuinely uplifting. Clear. Warm. Positive. Relaxed. The kind of flower that makes you want to walk slowly near the ocean while the sun disappears in the distance. Honestly, I could genuinely see this being a very comforting medicine for people struggling with sadness, low mood, emotional heaviness or difficult days. There’s something emotionally light about this cultivar that feels very welcoming and peaceful. And comparing the cured flower to the charas and trim-bin resin was also extremely interesting. The terpene profiles stayed very similar between them all, which was beautiful to notice. But the charas had this extra layer of freshness and brightness that almost felt “alive.” Maybe because it came directly from fresh living material. Maybe because of the way fresh resin expresses itself. Maybe because charas simply carries a different soul. Whatever the reason… it was heavenly. And now, as this diary finally comes to an end, I just want to send love and gratitude to everybody who was part of this journey. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the nutrition. To the gear that kept everything running day after day. To the platform itself. To the GrowDiaries community. To the longtime followers and OGs. To the new people just discovering the page. To the curious ones. To the silent supporters. To the lovers. To the skeptics. To the haters. To the people who only stopped for 5 seconds. And to the people who stayed here from seed until smoke. Thank you. Truly. 🌱 This chapter may be closing… But another one is already opening somewhere else in the garden. Stay tuned. A new diary is coming very soon. ✨ 📡 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.

More Incredible Developments this week! I started adding General Hydroponics Bud on the first watering of the third week of flower - it has resulted in some surprisingly big and fast growth over the past week. You can see from going to the previous week and this one, the bud sites seem to just getting fatter and searching out for their neighbors above and below them with the white pistils - I know I keep saying this but as a lifetime cannabis user, this is the first time I have had the opportunity to watch my own garden closely through the entire plants development and life cycle, and so far this is VERY exciting and entertaining to see the developments each day. The topping and LST techniques I used (no experience, only watching videos and researching) have resulted in my plants taking on almost a bowl or basket shape, where the outside branches have reached far far above the middle canopy during their "final stretch" or first week or two of flowering. Now, the middle of all of my plants have numerous smaller bud sites that are developing - I am looking forward to how the lower canopy buds develop! I am currently watering them every other day - 8 cups of water each. This past week I increased their water intake from 6 cups to 8 cups - So far I am seeing no sign of stress in any way shape or form - only VERY happy plants working on bulking up on their flowers. I plan on letting them do their thing and working on maintaining their environment so it stays consistent. Definitely a big increase in smell this week - the Cherry Gorilla x Sol Sonic seem to be moving along and bulking up a little more than the GMO. When picking leaves off the GMO, I can already start to smell and recognize hints of the tremendous gas garlic stank I have been looking forward to - Appreciate the Likes and Follows! Look forward to more photos and developments from my First Grow :)

01/11 - Comenzo su séptima semana en etapa de floracion. Se encuentra perfecta, nunca cultive una planta tan perfecta como esta, los cogollos son grandes, bañados en tricomas y tiene un olor muy fuerte. Sin dudas es una genetica que volvería a cultivar, no tuve ningun problema con ella. Entro en lavado de raiz, estoy utilizando de la marca de Advance Nutrients el fertilizante Flawless Finish para acelerar un poco las lo que es es lavado. En estos dias estare publicando mas imagenes de como viene. Podes seguirme en Instagram como @bruweed_arg

so far I'm only feeding them with destilated water day4: unfortunately the 4th seed grew the other way around I carefully moved it over without touching it directly day5: 24hours later it looks a little sad but I think it will get over it. the other 3 are perfectly fine and achieved a height of 7cm so far I'm watering every 2 days approximately 200ml desolated water day6: on day 2 after operation the 4th one is growing and starting to look healthy , them step is even thicker than the other 3 had at that height I think. gonna leave the cup on it of another day probably and depending on how it looks tomorrow I will take it off day7: Plants looking healthy so far, 4th one is recovering nicely day8: The 3 are growing healthy and number 2 and 3 are already showing their second pair of leaves and I think it's safe to say number 4 recovered and is now back on track:) day9: Today I put 400ml of water on the three bigger ones but on the outer area to water the soil overall without pouring 400ml directly on the Plant, number 4 is getting on track and is growing nicely after the beginning problems she had. day10: I was a bit worried since number 2 rolled their first 2 Leaves a little bit but I was told they will drop of anyway and not tot worry about them too much. besides that they are all growing nicely. day11: Last day of week 1 and so far everything is going very well.

They got moved into the 4x4 with the jimmy rigged 180w quantum board light built from ceiling tile grid. The tnb co2 is newish but I gotta get the heat up and bring in a more powerful light to take full advantage.

Flowering continues, not seeing trichomes darken or get cloudy yet. Bought a small dehumidifier and fit it inside the tent which helped manage the RH. Started removing some fan leaves every other day to give maximum light exposure to the buds. Also changed the watering schedule from to every other day instead of every two days.

I am so amazed on how well this plant is growing straight from seed. It didn't occur to me that I should have clone at the early stage of mid - stage of veg growth. Added 2 Tbsp of Dr. Earth Bloom.

Week 5, nothing much, i actually let her chill for a bit. Watered with 5L, 5.9 PH, 1ml/L PowerRoots and 3ml/L Terra Grow. She is doing great! Some light defoliation of the crowded lower half, and some slight LST readjustments. Her cracks from the training week 3/4 are healing nicely! Planning to flip to flower during late week 6 or beginning week 7.

Die buds sind zwar nicht so fest, dafür ist gefühlt die ganze Pflanze ein einziger bud. Ich würde sagen, wir bewegen uns auf den Endspurt zu. Also nochmal alles rausholen was geht.

This is most likely my last update before harvest. More and more trichomes are turning cloudy with about 2-5% Amber. Gave her her last feeding yesterday and I figure there's about a week left. My usual plan is letting the water level drop for a few days then flush when there's 3 days left. A lot of the buds in the middle are ending up fairly small but everything's really dense.

Hi guys I hope your all good, So its been a mad week! Had to have a switch around. So the mimosa sherberts have been a nightmare but I think I got them back on track, there a good few weeks behind now. Gelato cakes are doing brilliant! Frosting up lovely and smell amazing, I reckon 4 weeks max left on these 2 autos, then its waiting on the sherbert mimosa to show me some nice buds. I have 1 blue cheese fem and 2 x dark phoenix vegging in there now. I will repot them when the autos are all done and finished. Happy growing guys 👌💪💚 Hi guys I just got around to defoliating and tieing back down the sherbert mimosas, its looking like each node is a 40cm long main, I cant wait for these to start producing now. Happy growing guys.

🌸 Week 4 Flower Report: Growth, Challenges & Big Changes! 🌸 Hey, Grow Diaries Fam! ✨ We’re here at Week 4 of Flower, and what a week it’s been—packed with challenges, adjustments, and exciting progress! Before diving into the details, let’s start with a note on my flowering timeline. While this is Week 4, I don’t start counting flower days the moment I flip to 12/12. Instead, I wait for the plants to show true signs of bloom. It’s a small but significant distinction that keeps things accurate and aligned with the plants’ development. 🌱 Defoliation: Timing is Everything! Defoliation is a critical part of the flowering stage, and I typically wait until Day 21. However, this week, I tackled it earlier on Day 17 because: 1️⃣ The room was simply too full. 2️⃣ And most importantly—the Papaya Zoap had other plans! She’s a fighter—determined, defiant, and constantly reaching for the moon. Despite intense training like super cropping, she’s still pushing upward, nearly outpacing the LED lights. Challenges like this remind us of a simple truth: gardening mirrors life. It’s about resilience, adaptation, and unwavering determination. 💪 This week, I added a second SCROG layer. While this net will support the flowering colas, it’s also there to strategically manage the Papaya Zoap. Why? Because experience has taught me that if she grows out of the LED’s range, she won’t finish properly—and that could disrupt the balance for every other plant in the tent. It’s all about teamwork, even in the garden. 🌟 Defoliation was intense, removing nearly all the leaves with stems to clear space and boost airflow. The tent now looks dramatically different! For the full before-and-after transformation, be sure to check out my YouTube channel—trust me, you’ll want to see this process up close! 🎥✨ Switching to Aptus Holland Minerals A major milestone this week: I’ve transitioned entirely to Aptus Holland Minerals. 🌊 From now on, it’s just minerals—no more organic inputs. This marks the start of a new chapter, and I’m incredibly curious to see how the plants react to these changes. Here’s the current nutrient mix: • System Clean: 0.5 ml/L • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid: 2.1 ml/L I’m keeping the pH at 6.1 and TDS at 556 ppm, and so far, the plants are thriving. This week also included a thorough system clean, ensuring everything runs smoothly as we enter the final flowering stages. 🌿 Bud Development: Pure Magic! The bud formation across all the genetics is nothing short of incredible. Every plant is thriving, and the canopy is lush, vibrant, and full of potential. I’ve raised the PPFD to 750 for this stage, with temps steady at 25°C and RH at 63%—keeping the VPD dialed in at 1.11. The TrolMaster ecosystem, paired with the AutoPots, makes managing these precise conditions seamless. With more time to focus on the plants, I can give them the daily care they deserve. 💚 Shoutouts & Gratitude A huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters: TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix, Cannakan, and the amazing seed banks. Your incredible products and technology make this journey possible. 🌟 To the Grow Diaries community and all my followers—thank you for your energy, love, and even the challenges from the haters. It all fuels this incredible process, and I apprecilove every bit of it. Special shoutout to Brother Daggadna—check him out on Instagram and show some love! 💚 The plants are heading into the next phase of bloom, and I can’t wait to share how this story unfolds. 🌸✨ As always, stay tuned, stay positive, and let’s keep growing strong together! 🙌 Growers’ love to all 💚 #TrolMaster #AptusHolland #GrowLife #CannabisCommunity #FlowerWeek4 #NeverGiveUp #GrowWithLove #IndoorHorticulture #Defoliation #PPFD #ControlledEnvironment #SCROGNet #DogDoctorOfficial Discount Codes so you can save big on your next check out 💚💚💚 Kannabia - DOGDOCTOR 30% off SeedsmanSeeds - DOGDOCTOR 10% off CannaKan- DOGDOCTOR 15% off terpyz.eu - DOCTOR 15% off The Neutralizer - PORKIT5-DOG 15% off As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏
 With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚 Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only Growers Love to you all 💚💚💚 P.S. – A Deep Dive into the ICL-300: Revolutionizing Under-Canopy Lighting The ICL-300 isn’t just another LED—it’s a game-changer for under-canopy lighting. Unlike traditional LED systems that project light in a single direction, the ICL-300’s 300-degree design ensures even light distribution beneath the canopy. 🌟 This unique feature means that no part of your plant is left in shadow, creating a balanced environment for lower buds to thrive. Key Tech Specs & Benefits: • 300-Degree Light Distribution: This design fills the under-canopy space with optimal light, enhancing photosynthesis where it often gets neglected. 🌱 • Full Spectrum Output: Tailored to meet the specific needs of plants at every stage, ensuring quality growth from base to apex. • Energy Efficiency: Advanced LED technology delivers maximum output with minimal energy usage, keeping costs down and sustainability up. 💡 • Durability & Heat Management: Built with high-quality materials, the ICL-300 stays cool and reliable, even in intense growing environments. Why It Matters: Under-canopy lighting is a game-changer for growers aiming to maximize yield and quality. Typically, lower buds receive less light, resulting in larfy or underdeveloped flowers. The ICL-300 changes that dynamic entirely by turning shadows into opportunity. 🌟 With light evenly dispersed across the entire plant, you’re not just growing; you’re sculpting a masterpiece. For me, the ICL-300 is more than a tool—it’s a partner in innovation. It ensures that every plant in my grow room has equal opportunity to shine, from the top colas to the smallest buds at the base. When paired with a carefully managed ecosystem, like the one powered by TrolMaster, the potential for consistent, top-quality harvests reaches new heights. This isn’t just about adding light—it’s about adding value, efficiency, and balance to the grow process. I’m beyond excited to see how the ICL-300 transforms the game in my tent, and I can’t wait to share the results with you all! 💚
