elongated stems made me worry, but they only needed little support at day 3 I started spraying them every 2.5h with filtered water

1st photo We did the scrog, it helped us a little more to use as support to tie the branches with threads and manipulate them as we wanted, so we tamed it. but they kept growing as my colleague affirms

Trop Cherry #8 x BeeJayz hasn’t been topped, I transplanted the girls this week from a 1 gallon pot to a 3 gallon pot. Trop Cherry was in a plastic pot but now in a fabric pot. Plants seem to be growing well.

All pictures were taken on day 57 Buds are stacking up and her smell intensified a lot this week😸I am impressed by the size of her buds🙀I have not seen such a big headbud outdoor after such short flowering💪 I gave her about 4L with 0.7ml/l Top-Max & Bio-Bloom this week and 0.4ml/l Bio-Grow More lower leaves are getting yellowish but it should be fine with current feeding✊

Bien pues el domingo 15/05/22 hice defoliacion con 66 dias desde la germi. Hoy lunes por la noche, las pongo ya a 12/12 y que empiecen a florecer. Considero que estan robustas y fuertes para la etapa de flora. Me lie con stories y videos y se me paso hace fotos detelladas para aqui... lo siento, os dejo las stories y fotos de esta mañana Creo que vamos a ver buenas cosas aqui :D Son 10 Tropicanna cookies con 48 dias desde la germinacion y 5 MAC, 4 Bannana wafflez y 1 Apple friter con 67 dias desde la germi. Hoy lunes 16/05/22 por la noche las paso a 12/12 Todo de GBSTRAINS abonado con BOOM NUTRIENTS bajo los paneles LED de GBLIGHTING GB THE GREEN BRAND

🌱 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.

Week 4 of flower and we have baby buds. The plant that had to live outside the tent is stretching for the light, but doing well. I open the tent from 7 am -7 pm so she can get some light, but it is not quite right so stretching. Lots of height change and smells are getting stonger but still mild.

Today 7/30/19, day 57 and the start of week 9. I'm still continuing to alternate between days with my pesticide treatment (especially after finding that bug living on one of hulkberries fan leaf) and thrive alive green daily foliage spray as a prophylactic solution against any possible pests or mold going into these last few dog days of veg. I will flush them with distilled ph'd water for two days this weekend in preparation for flower. Then I'll start them on some "flower fuel" bloom booster on top of my secret for success flower recipe at 1/4 of the recommended strength. Outside of that still no adverse issue to report for the end of the 8th week. After my last trim, they both have responded very nicely, I was kind of worried about fat banana stalled growth. But one thing I noticed when I topped her at the 6th node, yes the main stem stopped growing but it developed many bud sites up and down every stem. Whereas hulkberry was topped at the 8th node, she has mainly focused on developing long stems and only 2 or 3 bud sites along her stems. Even though hulkberry in structure, is much bigger than fat banana and has a way bigger root system. Fat banana is bushier and has developed way more bud sites than hulkberry. I can't tell which strain will yield the most at this point only time will tell! Also, a big shout out to "J"@RQS, thank you for the excellent customer service. Another reason why Royal Queen Seeds is top 3 in breeding!!

She recovered from the adjustments and the soil being in better conditions for nutrients uptake she continued with her growth normally. I reintroduced the microbial system by watering with a compost tea I made. I then reintroduced nutes to her feed all while making sure all solutions given were at the ideal Ph and PPMs. I mostly use RO water with 5.2 Ph/ 32 PPM so after the flush I gave days to the soil to dry back then for the next watering I had to ph up around 5.8 to 6.3 to tackle the high ph issue in my medium. Gradually we came back to range with the last watering I checked and we were around 6.5 ph/ 1089 PPM which is ideal for where I want my soil to be. Around day 38 she started showing pistils on a few tops. By the end of the week I could tell she had officially entered her flowering stage. I didn’t defoliate this week, I wanted to give time to the plant to recover. I instead did some LST by the end of the week to open up the canopy a little more. I love how everything is going I’m grateful for the knowledge I’m learning along the way. Take care of your loved ones happy growing
