Week 8 of flower is at a close and these girls are really starting to express themselves. They're slowly putting on their colours and getting ready to really shine. Some of the close up pics looks like a red trichome here and there, will have to break out the scope soon and keep an eye, aiming for the 5-10% range. They're smelling delicious and quite strong. Not as strong as the Pink Lemonade I did last run, but they're close! Nice fruity smell and a heavy dankness hahaha. Carbon filter on the 6" fan , don't even notice the tent smell being in the same room. Dropping humidity to 45%, will have the VPD between 1.1-1.3 for the remainder of the grow. Let's keep these girls healthy and cruise to that finish line!

Started some LST early in the week for the slightly older plant, then later in the week with the other two. I was going to let them go Christmas tree style, but I can tell already they will out stretch the others. Ended up just bending the top and tying with pant ties. This should promote some busier plants. Still figuring out the Correct Cronk Dosage, it’s pretty strong stuff, just trying to find the balance. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Skywalker OG — Legends of the 12/12 Galaxy Week 7 From Seed | Week 2 Flower Structural Defoliation + Clip Release + Stretch Acceleration ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Snapshot (Current Reality) • 🌡️ Day Temp: ~28°C • 💧 RH: ~65% • ⚡ EC: ~2.9 • pH: ~6.5 • 📏 Height: 40–80 cm • 💡 LED (multi-layer canopy + under-canopy) On paper? Some growers panic at 28°C in flower. In practice? Understanding beats numbers. ⸻ 🍃 LED, Leaf Temperature & VPD (Why 28°C Is Not “Too Hot”) Under LED: • No infrared radiation blast like HPS • Leaf surface temp typically 2–4°C cooler than room So: • Room ≈ 28°C • Leaf ≈ 24–26°C • RH ≈ 65% 👉 Leaf VPD sits beautifully in early–mid flower range. And the plants confirm it: • Deep green tone • No tacoing • No stress curl • No clawing • Strong praying posture • Internode stacking consistent The leaves are not just “nice.” They are metabolically comfortable. ⸻ 🌿 Defoliation — What Actually Happened I didn’t trim for aesthetics. I reset the architecture. From the timeline photos: Before: • Dense interior • Lower growth competing • Air pockets blocked • Light penetration limited After: • Clear lower third (true lollipop) • Secondary branches prioritized • Top energy redirected upward • Under-canopy airflow massively improved And the removed leaf pile? That tells the story of biomass management, not plant stress. Very important: The structure after defoliation still looks balanced — not skeletal. That means you removed intelligently, not emotionally. ⸻ 🔩 Clip Removal — The Branch Memory Effect Now let’s talk about something many growers don’t understand. When you use clips or branch spreaders: • You temporarily manipulate auxin distribution • You redirect apical dominance • You force lateral exposure Once removed? The plant reacts in 24–72 hours. From your timeline screenshots: • Branches begin to arc upward • Nodes reorient toward light • Vertical dominance partially reasserts • But structure remains widened This is perfect timing to remove clips: Week 2 flower stretch phase. Why? Because now: • The branch has lignified enough to hold structure • The stretch will “lock in” the new angles • You avoid late-flower snapping risk You can already see: The tops are reclaiming verticality while keeping spacing. That is textbook. ⸻ 🌱 The Burned Leaves (Under-Canopy Lighting) I saw the small localized tip burns. Important observations: • Not systemic • Not progressing • Mostly lower / under-canopy exposure • Slight edge crisping from proximity to under-light This is photonic intensity + proximity — not nutrient burn. Your EC at 2.9 is high compared to your other girls, yes. But here’s the key: They are eating it. Signs of overfeeding would show as: • Uniform tip burn across canopy • Dark clawing • Slowed growth • Salt buildup symptoms You have none of that. Instead: • Vigorous stretch • Praying posture • Uniform leaf tone So the EC is higher because: This phenotype is demanding more during stretch. That’s not excess. That’s appetite. ⸻ 🚀 The Stretch Now let’s talk genetics. Week 2 flower is just the beginning for these. Expect: • 1.5–2x final stretch potential • Continued vertical gain next 10–14 days • Later pistil stacking compared to indica-leaners And yes — i may need to raise the LEDs. At 60 cm now? They are not done. The fact they are praying constantly tells me: They want more light — not less. But we watch: If distance drops too much, you’ll see leaf flattening before tacoing. That’s your early warning. ⸻ Two Plants — Two Personalities You can clearly see: One Plant : • More structured • Tighter node stacking • Slightly thicker leaf The other Plant : • More vertical aggression • Strong apical reclaim after clip removal • Haze-like frame expansion This is why running multiple phenos is beautiful. We’re not just growing. We’re studying expression. ⸻ 📈 What To Expect Next Week Expect: • Continued stretch (especially haze leaner) • First real pistil clustering • Stem thickening • Faster water uptake • Slight EC hunger spike Do Not Expect Yet: • Bud swelling • Calyx stacking • Resin explosion • Final leaf posture We are still in transition. This is architectural week — not production week. ⸻ ❤️ And The Leaves… You’re right. They are beautiful. Wide, defined serrations. Strong petiole angles. No mottling. No interveinal chlorosis. No stress striping. They look metabolically confident. That’s the best compliment a plant can receive. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude Section To everyone: • The OGs who’ve been here since seed • The new growers learning through mistakes and wins • The silent readers • The loud critics • The Grow Diaries community • The platform hosting the journey • The sponsors supporting education • And every single person watching this experiment unfold This is not just a grow. It’s documentation. It’s learning. It’s transparency.

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.

~ Auto Skywalker Haze®️ by Dutch Passion ~ Skywalker Haze x Auto Amsterdam Amnesia Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together cultivating Dutch Passion's Autoflowering version of their outstanding Skywalker Haze along with three other incredible autoflowers from Dutch Passion that I'm running separately, so buckle up and hold on! This will be a wild ride for sure! I've wanted to grow this strain for some time now and finally have an opportunity to see what I can do with it, and I've germinated two so double the fun! "Auto Skywalker Haze has a very pungent and fruity aroma! The incredibly firm and frosty buds give off a strong lemony, yet sweet, haze-like scent. The citrus and haze notes are clearly dominant. The combination of the fruity, sour, pungent citrus-dominant terpene profile with the more pungent, spicy haze character makes this a strain for real enthusiasts. The buds are completely covered in trichomes and in addition to providing a high cannabinoid profile. It also gives a true taste explosion. The terpenes are in abundance and they provide an exceptionally strong fruity haze taste. " ** "Auto Skywalker Haze is currently Dutch Passion's most potent autoflower with THC levels over 25%! 26.2% to be exact! This makes this strain even stronger than most of the photoperiod seed strains currently available worldwide.** "The feminized Skywalker Haze is a cross of our original and classic Skywalker variety, which consists of a cross of Mazar x Blueberry which in turn is crossed with an Amsterdam Amnesia from the Amsterdam underground scene. By crossing this photoperiod Skywalker Haze genetics with Auto Amsterdam Amnesia, Auto Skywalker Haze was created." ** "Auto Skywalker Haze produces robust and stable autoflower plants. This Sativa dominant cannabis strain is known for strong and sturdy plants that can take a beating. Most ladies grow into large plants with a real Sativa appearance. These phenotypes can grow quite tall with wide and long branching, thin leaves and elongated Sativa buds. These phenotypes usually take a little longer to mature. The flowers, which are completely covered in crystals, may have a tendency to foxtail slightly, but that doesn't take away from its true beauty. These buds also become a lot more compact than you might expect from the Sativa appearance. There are also phenotypes that remain just a little more compact and tend more towards the hybrid side. These mostly Skywalker-dominant phenotypes grow very hard and compact buds, sometimes reaching as thick as a Coke bottle. All plants have a good flower-to-leaf ratio and trimming the plants is relatively quick. Some plants can even be picked completely by hand and are ready really quickly. The small sugar leaves are also completely full of resin and trichomes, so you don't necessarily have to be very precise. If you want use it, then you have excellent trim to make your own hash, oil or other cannabis concentrate. Auto Skywalker Haze generally has a short internode distance. The flowers can grow nicely together and completely fill the branches from top to bottom with sticky buds. Most Sativa-dominant plants usually have a little more space between the buds. This lady can also stretch a lot. Outside we have seen occasional plants that have reached a height of more than two meters in the open ground. That is very exceptional for an autoflower."** "Auto Skywalker Haze generally takes about 12 weeks from seed to produce fully mature plants ready for harvest. There are two phenotypes of Auto Skywalker Haze that take a little longer, around 13 to 14 weeks. These are really worth the wait! During the last few weeks the buds get a lot thicker and heavier and the potency continues to increase. Outdoors, Auto Skywalker Haze takes an average of between 12-15 weeks to fully mature." ** **Credit- Dutch Passion.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~ Grown in 15L Gronest geotextile pots filled with Mother Earth Grow 70/30 Coco/Perlite with Xtreme Gardening Mykos added. ~ Seeds were germinated directly in the medium without any 'pre-soak' ~ Seeds were planted three days before the Full Moon (Waning Gibbons) and sprouted within 72hrs, on the Full Moon. ~ Feeding will be by Lotus Nutrients (first time using) ~ 24hr light cycle while germinating ~ 20/4 light cycle after first leaves appear. ~ 4x8 Gorilla Tent ~ HLG 650R w/ 30w Supplemental UVA Bar controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. (also a HLG Blackbird for additional side lighting if necessary) ~ Supplemental co2 controlled by an AutoPilot APC 8200 co2 controller ~ AC Infinity Cloudline T6 with Controller 67 using a Terrabloom 6x24" carbon filter ~ De-Humidifier and Humidifier when needed. ~ 14k BTU IdealAir portable A/C unit plumbed into tent for temperature control. ~ BlueLab testing instruments ~ Two Hurricane 18" oscillating fans ~ Two 6" Clip-on fans ~ Two 10" floor mounted fans ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As a cannabis grower, I recently had the pleasure of growing two Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plants indoors. This hybrid strain is a cross between Skywalker Haze and Dutch Passion Auto Ultimate and is known for its strong cerebral effects and uplifting high. In this report, I will share my experience growing Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze and provide some 'High Humor'. ~Growing conditions~ I grew my Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plants indoors in a 4x8 Gorilla tent. I germinated both seeds directly in the Coco/Perlite medium and both sprouted within 72 hours! The growing environment was kept on point with the help of an AC Infinity Cloudline T6 exhaust fan coupled with their Series 67 Bluetooth Controller along with two 18" Hurricane fans, two floor mounted 8" fans and a 6" clip on fan providing ample air movement. Also crucial to this grow was the supplemental Co2 via a 50# tank regulated by an Autopilot APC 8200 Co2 Controller that I set to keep the tent at 700-1200ppm's throughout the run. Tent temperature's ran between 68-78℉, humidity was kept between 40-60%. I used a lighting schedule of 20/4 for the entire grow with a pair of HLG 650R's that also have supplemental UV bars attached. The exception being the last three weeks, where I added 4 hours a day of UV, and cut the cycle back to 19/5 for a week, and then finally to 18/6 for the last two weeks. I used Lotus Nutrients for the first part of this grow but became concerned when I noticed that I was getting yellowing I used starting on the #1 plant going from the bottom up indicating to me that their was a problem with the nutrients. Let me say that I'm VERY OCD when it comes to the PH/EC of what I feed my babies, following all of the recommendations from Lotus, but continued to see the yellowing progress. I then switched to Dutch Pro liquid nutrients and within two feeds I could begin to see a noticeable difference in the #1 plants color and overall health! As I continued using the DutchPro nutrients the #1 plants health, vigor and color continued to dramatically improve all the way up until harvest. I can honestly say the I believe switching to DutchPro nutrients saved this grow from a possible dramatic failure! ~Flowering time~ My Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plants had a flowering time of 93 days from seed to harvest for the #2 plant and the #1 in an unbelievable 113 days! The #2 reached a height of 23" and produced yield of 116g, while the giant #1 plant came in with a whopping 279g total yield and grew to just shy of 40" tall! In addition to all the tasty flowers that these two plants provided, I took the 'sugar trim' from them and ran it through my sift screens resulting in a 24 gram mound of sift on the first sift! And now for some 'High Humor': ~Growing Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze was a bit like being a Jedi, except instead of using the Force, I used Coco/Perlite and DutchPro nutrients. ~ My Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plant was so big and beautiful, it could have been featured in the Millennium Falcon's garden. ~When it comes to smoking Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze, it's like taking a ride on the fastest ship in the galaxy - it's a real trip. In conclusion, the Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze was one of my all time highest yielding and longest growing autoflowers to date. It was a very easy strain to grow, and it only required minimal care and attention to ensure that it grew to its full potential. Cultivating these two Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plants indoors was a great experience that resulted in two beautiful and high-yielding plants. Smoking the buds provided a strong cerebral high that was uplifting and energizing. I would highly recommend this strain to other growers looking for a relatively easy to grow variety with strong effects. May the Force be with you as you embark on your growing journey... May all your days and grows be Blessed! 😎🙏❤️ References: Dutch Passion. (n.d.). Auto Skywalker Haze. Retrieved from https://dutch-passion.com/en/cannabis-seeds/auto-skywalker-haze Leafly. (n.d.).

I have a lot of vertical space and little horizontal space, that's why I'm not using networks. Only a central 8 mm iron stake, in the absence of a net, to prevent the weight of the buds from bending the side branches, I am tying them to the central stake with ropes made of “t-shirt rags” (they have just the right elasticity and do not hurt the plants, and I have many old t-shirts, haha). It is an economical and simple, but effective solution. Likewise, for those who do not have horizontal space problems, I recommend using networks! Glueberry OG I'm going to cut it next week (before the rains announced for Monday the 24th. Greetings!

This girl is refusing to stop growing absolutely phenomenal. It's stacking and swelling into a monster of a plant. Drinking a gallon a day and not slowing down. The flowers are progressing nice and starting to develop. The sour smell already is super strong and it'd be an understatement if I said I wasn't excited for these to finish but still looks like a couple more weeks. Happy

Harvest time for Divine storm. Not much to say about this strain, except this is my last time growing it. July 11 update, 84 grams dry weight. Same taste and smell as before, a wine taste with a bit of fruit.

Thats it, last fan leaves are yellow and those girls are ready, they still pack up, loads of new pistils visible, despite all going brown from low temps during greenhouse period. I start to see ambers a lot, they are not so leafy and i lost 2 main colas to bud rot, better safe than sorrow !!! Theirs calyxes are well matured all stems browny pinky, they made a journey in full in my eyes and as always i still hate yellow leaves, don't want to slaughter bud while trimming. Think two more days, then 48 hours of darkness and late sunday eve - they are chopped and wet trimmed. Thursday. Added couple closeups, but they are far better then in photos, bulking up each day, packing trichs like crazy. This time buds don't look so lanky, from airy leafy crap, they become solid nugs... Its my third different grow of this strain. First 4 plants and Biggest clone looked really similar, this ones - more Real GG4 structure, love it !!! All got lite pinky , violet colours . All have fruity smell, just not last ones ;)) they are wild strawberries + . Amazing flavour of early buds tells me final harvest will be fire !!! Have stupid feeling, taking them down too early, but my yellow leaves OCD whispers me " Cut, cut, cut ..." ;))) Chop Chop Day. Wet trim chosen, they are sparkling !!! Fat, but still leafy ... Found 3 budrot spots, two would eat big colas, but low humidity forced those leaves just die off without infecting others, so it was perfect timing. Happy Growing !

Es war Zeit für die Ernte, im Urlaub hatte sich an der Pflanze im Folientunnel Schimmel an der Hauptcola gebildet und auch etwas an der Pflanze auf der Terrasse. Es hatte in dieser Woche sehr viel geregnet. die Pflanze wurde geschnitten und zum Trocknen aufgehängt.

Sticky and loud is all I can say! Hopefully whatever damage and burn I have doesn’t hurt my buds too much l! But otherwise they’re stacking up well! Couple more weeks to go!

Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg. Had my 4th year cancer check-up and passed... Doctor couldn't find anything wrong. So I get to wait a year before my next/last check-up. If I pass that check-up they declare me cancer free. 😁 Thanks Rick Simpson.... Got this magazine a couple of days ago and wanted to show some of the weird adds and the articles. There is a Cheech and Chong story and interview in the Captain Future diary, and a Cheech story and interview in my LemonPaya diary. If your a fan of them have a peek at this weeks... Things are going well in here. The plants are stretching to fill out their areas. Plant #1 looks like it going to be a big plant with inches between leaf sets. Nice tangy smell though. Thinking of putting these girls into flowering around June 1st. And harvesting around Aug.15 or so. Got the tent so I could flower when the sun is strong, middle of summer. Not the weak ass fall sun where there's lots of mold and fungus. OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.
