Week 16 (Harvest) 1-2 Drying day 1 Temperature: 24.5 to 19.5 degrees Humidity: 65% to 50% The girls are ready to be harvested! Before chopping them down, i took a lot of pictures. I was able to remove most of the soil from the Biscotti #2 to see the rootball. I hang the plants as a whole to have a slow dry. The exhaust fan is on setting 4. 2-2 Drying day 2 Temperature: 19.1 to 17.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 57% I changed the exhaust fan to setting 2 because setting 4 was a bit high in my opinion. 3-2 Drying day 3 Temperature: 19.9 to 18 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked up on the drying plants, and i see there are some buds touching other buds, so i chopped the plants in half. The buds are still to the main stem for a slow dry, but are hanging more spreaded out to prevent any budrot issues. I changed the exhaust fan to setting 1, as someone told me that it was enough air movement for drying. 4-2 Drying day 4 Temperature: 19.8 to 18.5 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% 5-2 Drying day 5 Temperature: 19.9 to 18.8 degrees Humidity: 62% to 59% Today i checked on the drying plants and the buds are shrinking a bit, they are getting a little bit crispy on the outside aswell, I hope they wont dry as fast, and i aim for a 12/14 day dry. For the next grow i already germinated 2x Chemdog (GreenHouseSeeds) 2x Gorilla Kush (GanjaFarmerSeeds) and 1x Deep Candy CBD (GreenHouseSeeds) And I have some upgrades planned aswell! I bought a autopot kit with 4 15L pots, this way the plants will have water and air 24/7 whenever they need it. I have seen alot of great results using autopots so i am very exited to try it out! And I bought a small camera so i can shoot some weekly timelapses! Feel free to Follow me if you like to get notified for the upcoming diaries! Thanks for checking out this diary, peace! (More harvest updates coming in the next couple of days!) Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the seeds, and Plagron for the collection of nutrients, and the opportunity to participate in the POWERBUDS contest! It was a fun and learningful adventure!

This week went well, cut, dried and I began to cure the second plant in potting soil. The third and final one is doing really well showing nice bud formation. Will let it go until the end of the month just to see if the buds will fatten.

First week of flower these girls are definitely ready to start producing. I have lollipopped them and have done a tone of L.S.T. with little super cropping to start building that strentght for big colas. Extremely excited about this run. These mac and jac girls were under a marshydro fc 4800 all of veg and switched to the spider farmer sf 4000 to finish the run. Lighting has switched from a 18/6 to a 12/12. Earthy smells have become stronger. The plants are very healthy and growing strong best of luck to your grows to all my growmies hope you all a plentiful harvest.

🌿 Skywalker OG — Week 4 Report 12/12 from seed 📌 Disclaimer / Timeline clarification Before we begin, a quick note for transparency: Last week, while compiling the reports, I unintentionally included some photos that actually belong to this week. That one’s on me. It’s fairly easy to notice which photos those are, and to avoid duplicating files, I’ll keep the correct visuals where they are while continuing to share this week’s genetics shots and videos as intended. Thank you for the understanding — clarity and honesty always come first here 🙏 ⸻ 🌱 Week 4 overview We are now in Week 4 of vegetative development under a 12/12 light schedule from seed. The Skywalker OG girls are looking outstanding: • Deep, lush green coloration • Strong, healthy leaf structure • Calm posture with no visible stress • Excellent overall vigor These plants are clearly happy and well-settled in their environment. ⸻ 🌿 Structure & training notes At this stage, the plants are reaching 7–8 nodes, with some approaching 9 nodes, and we’re beginning to see early branching. Training so far has been: • Gentle leaf tucking • Light leaf bending • No aggressive manipulation • No intentional stress The goal right now is simply guidance, not force — helping light reach lower sites while allowing the plant to stay relaxed and balanced. Branching is happening slowly and naturally, which is exactly what we expect under 12/12 from seed. At this moment, the plants are still prioritizing root system expansion over top growth, and that foundation will pay off later. ⸻ 🌱 Why growth looks the way it does (12/12 from seed) A quick reminder for anyone new joining us: Under 12/12 from seed: • Vegetative growth is more compact • Plants focus heavily on roots early on • Structural decisions are made carefully by the plant • Flowering does not start immediately This is not a race — it’s a controlled, intentional build-up. ⸻ Nutrition & overall health The current nutrition plan is clearly doing its job. Across the diaries, we’re seeing: • Balanced green tones (no burn, no fade) • Clean leaf edges • Strong stems • Consistent vigor Every plant expresses herself a bit differently — autos, photoperiods, different genetics — but the overall health across the room is excellent, and that’s always the real metric. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect next Over the coming week(s), expect: • Continued node development • Stronger lateral branching • Gradual shift toward pre-flower behavior • Increased structural definition What not to expect just yet: • No heavy stretch • No real flower formation • No need for defoliation • No drastic changes Consistency remains the key. ⸻ 🙏 Final notes Huge thank you to everyone following along, observing, asking questions, and sharing this journey with us. It’s always a pleasure documenting these runs and learning together. And of course, a big shout-out to the genetics from Zamnesia — each plant is showing her own personality, and it’s beautiful to watch. The girls are doing great… …and they definitely say hi back to you all 💚🌱 Community Note Due to YouTube community guidelines, our educational channel was taken down.

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.

22/5 just given them 20l fresh water per tray which is done (2 times a week). Feed schedule 📅 changed 2.4ml per ltr (bloom) 1.8ml per ltr (micro) 0.8ml per ltr (grow) 10ml per 20 ltr tray. (Flowerbomb) Had a problem with (smaller plants) tray. Which was too with pump luckly i have a spare so have changed them over. I have kept this tray on a pre Flower schedule now they have a better pump i believe they will pick up speed. So far so good fingers crossed 🤞 😊

🍀21/07 - Ya se encuentra en etapa de secado. 🍀El lunes le agregue 30L de agua y 10ml de Top Wash. 🍀Esta planta se encuentra mas resinosa y densa que la otra que también cultive. 🍀Todo fue perfecto desde el momento uno, no tuvo ningún problema en toda su etapa de vida. 🍀Tiene mucho olor, a caramelo o crema, todos sus cocos son densos y gordos. 🍀En total dio 163g. 🍀En estos días seguiré subiendo mas imágenes de como viene. 😶‍🌫️🇦🇷🍀Podes seguirme en Insta gram como @bruweed_arg🍀😶‍🌫️🇦🇷

Plant is showing signs of possible nitrogen and phosphorus deficiency with brown curling leaves and purple tipped leaves, but not too worried about it seeing as there's only about a few weeks left of growth. Removing smaller fan leaves to uncover bud sites. Heavy smells of pine and berries 😁

Tenth Week / 11.07.24 - 17.07.24 Week 10 was similar to the previous one, with steady progress and a few adjustments. 🌿 The Cookies Gelatos started showing signs of nutrient deficiency, drawing nutrients from the leaves. To address this, I increased the nutrient dosage by 0.5ml for all except CalMag, which I increased to 0.75ml per liter. 🌱 The plants seem to be responding well to the adjustment, and the buds are slowly swelling, especially on Apollo F1. Everything’s progressing nicely! 🌼🚀

Plants continue to enjoy the heat of the summer, Growing big fat leaves, going bone dry from sunrise to sunset and drinking lots of water every day at dusk. Some mild calcium deficiency started appearing the yellowing of the leaves with brown-ish spots, corrected with foliar spray Element XX (calcium supplement) I have also introduced my spray homemade pesticide with natural ingredients, you can find the recipe on my Instagram @Girlgoneweed (under the highlights), spraying 2x a week to keep rodents, deer, aphids, mites, mildew and other threats away. Thanks for following along, Happy Growing !! xoxo

This diary should have been updated a long time ago but the lack of time and mine reluctance to actually go back to the time of harvest, I did delete most of photographs of the harvest in rage as it was not a nice memory for me, here is why. So the last update i made to the diary was on 19 September and already then i knew something was brewing because we had a week long rain spell and it did not look like it was about to stop at that and the weather forecast showed a month more of rain. Without that rain and high RH i would probably give them girls one more week under the SE 7000 :/ The weather forecast was unfortunately right, so all in all we had around six week of relentless rain...outside it was from 90 to 95% RH in my house it was mostly 85%RH and in my grow room which is located in a basement i had from 60 to 63%RH with lights and dehumidifier on and around 70% with lights off. And that was a killer for my tightly packt grow room. What i did was to open all the walls from the grow room at dark time and had two big external fans blowing air at my plants but it did not help much... My first observation of bud rot was on 24 of September while making photographs of the beautiful buds. That week i lost to bud rot 4 bud stems, after the chop while drying i found another 5 infected stems, and by final trim just before jaring them i removed one more. So all together i lost to bud rot 10 bud stems, four of them were really big ones. I had made some pictures of the buds with bud rot and of the buds hangin in drying room but they did not survive my dark mood :( Sot thats the reason i got only few photographs to show for it. The final weighing was actually not as bad and lightened my mood a bit, that and that that i did not found any more mold on my cured Killer Kush :) So the dry weight after curing was 720 gram of dry bud I still till today did not make # from all the trimmings...but the trimmings are properly dried and waiting for bubble bugs in my freezer. After this learning experience i decided to add at least one more 30W air mixing internal fan, and i did get to know one of my relatives possess a 300W dehumidifier so next time i will be better prepared. Maintenance wise i will try to defoliate and lollipop my plants more aggressively to let in more air penetration.
