🌱 Amnesia Skunk — Grow Update Week 6 From Seed · 12/12 From Seed (Early Flower / ~Week 2 Flowering Transition) Quick Recap (for new joiners) This run is 12/12 from seed, and we are now at Week 6 from seed, which places us roughly in early flower / second week of flowering transition, depending on how one prefers to count. No aggressive interventions, no forcing. This grow is based on observation, leaf positioning, and letting the plant express herself naturally. Amnesia Skunk has shown: • Strong vertical intent • Beautiful internodal spacing • A structure that responds extremely well to simple leaf bending She is clearly in flower mode now and transitioning smoothly. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update (and Why It Matters) • Day temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: ~65% Outside temperatures are still on the cooler side, but inside the room things have shifted naturally. As plant mass increased, lighting intensity was raised, and under-canopy lighting was introduced, the room itself became a stable heat source. This allowed us to raise temperatures without adding external heating or forcing conditions. This balance is important because it keeps plant metabolism active but relaxed, especially during early flower. VPD Perspective At ~28°C and ~65% RH, we are sitting in a comfortable early-flower VPD range, supporting: • Active transpiration • Nutrient mobility • Strong gas exchange Nothing extreme, nothing restrictive. ⸻ 💡 Lighting & Atmosphere (Why These Numbers Work) • PPFD: ~600–850 (depending on plant size and position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm The PPFD range allows: • Smaller or lower sites to stay productive • Taller tops to push without stress This avoids the classic mistake of lighting only for the tops and forgetting the rest of the plant. CO₂ at ~900 ppm is intentionally moderate, not excessive. At this stage, it supports: • Faster carbon assimilation • Better light-use efficiency • No need to overfeed to “match” the CO₂ Everything stays balanced. ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow Strategy (This Is Not Random) • Vortex extraction • Cross-winds with multiple fans • Constant, gentle movement across the canopy The goal here is movement, not wind. Vortex extraction keeps fresh air cycling efficiently, while cross-winds prevent: • Microclimates • Stagnant humidity pockets • Weak stem development Leaves move gently, stems strengthen naturally, and flowers stay dry and comfortable as they form. Fresh air, no stress, no stagnation. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy (Why the Change Now) • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 This week marks a clear nutritional transition, guided by plant signals rather than calendar dates. Why pH 6.0+ from now on? As plants enter flower, nutrient uptake priorities shift: • Less focus on pure vegetative nitrogen pathways • More demand for elements tied to flower formation, enzyme activity, and energy transfer A slightly higher pH improves availability and balance of these elements in soil-based systems. The plant is clearly asking for it — posture, color, and growth rate all confirm this. ⸻ 🌱 Nutrient Change Explained • Removed: Terra Grow • Introduced: Terra Bloom — 5 ml/L Why remove Terra Grow now? Terra Grow is nitrogen-forward, designed to push vegetative mass. At this stage, excess veg-driven nitrogen can: • Delay flower focus • Encourage unnecessary leaf production • Blur the plant’s hormonal transition Why introduce Terra Bloom now? Terra Bloom supports: • Flower site development • Structural energy needs • Balanced nutrition without over-pushing foliage This is not a shock change. It’s a handover, and the plant is responding cleanly. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Structure, Leaf Work & Expression Amnesia Skunk continues to show excellent structure. • Leaf bending is the primary training method • No topping chaos, no forced stress • Just guiding light and space This method has: • Opened the canopy naturally • Preserved apical dominance while improving lateral exposure • Allowed the plant to stay confident and upright A few fan leaves were removed during photography — not as a defoliation event, but because they were funky, expressive, and worth documenting. Those leaves tell a story: • Healthy venation • Strong turgor • No deficiency signals • No toxicity They reflect a plant that is fed, lit, and aired correctly. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Expect: • Continued flower site stacking • Gradual stretch control through posture, not force • Increasing resin activity as flower identity locks in Do NOT expect: • Aggressive defoliation • Sudden stress techniques • Chasing numbers for the sake of charts This run stays calm. The plant leads, we follow. ⸻ 🙏 Final Words Thank you to: • Newcomers discovering this diary • Old souls following quietly • The curious, the critical, the supportive • Genetics, gear, sponsors • And the community as a whole It’s genuinely a privilege to share this space and this process. Amnesia Skunk is doing her thing — and she’s doing it beautifully.

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.

Most of the week was spent setting up the hydro grow. Needed to build a DIY chiller since air temp in our grow room is hot, and water needs to be a good deal colder. Fridge from kijiji, garden hose, fittings, and submersible pump all in were under $100 but knowing what I know now I'd likely go with a thermoelectric chiller (DIY, with power supply and temp controller) next time around. Looking forward to tracking metrics and seeing how it goes :). Seems there's a lot of contradiction in terms of level of nutrients recommended, max water temperature, using H2O2 to boost water temp that can keep algae and rot at bay, etc. Got my hands on some Hydroguard via Amazon... despite local shops saying you can't get it in Canada... so I'm going to go with that instead of H2O2 to start, despite water temp getting up above 21 C (70 f) during the day. Fingers crossed. Update - keeping water reservoir tank under 20 C now by using reflective bubble wrap insulation on the reservoir itself and pipe insulation as well. It's a 10 C difference from the room temp, so I'm SUPER pleased with that.

This plant grew very well. I yielded 7 ounces from just one plant, too bad I killed her sister. Honestly the only trouble I ran into, were the problems I created for myself. I am super excited to take everything I learned from this grow and apply it to my next!~

Excelente sabor y olor

Moin an alle der licht plan ist seit dieser Woche auf 12/12 gibt nicht viel zu sagen habe sonntag den 12.06.22 gegossen und dann bis donnerstag den 16.06.22 einfach nix gemacht leider hätte schon mittwochs giessen können. Nach dem giessen am donnerstag habe ich die Ladys nochmal von überschüssigem Material (Seiten Äste und Fächer Blätter) die in die Mitte der Pflanze ragen zu entfernen. Stretch läuft gut sind jetzt knapp 11 cm in 7 Tagen hoffe da kommt noch ein bisschen was wovon ich aber aus gehe so irgendwas zwischen 15 und 30 cm bis zum Ende des stretches noch oben drauf währen schon gut denke ich mal hab ja nicht allzu viel Ahnung vom Main lining is jetzt der 2. Versuch an der Technik (hab gemerkt das es wohl schlauer ist bei der Technik nur eine Pflanze im Zelt zu haben da das die licht Verteilung auf die einzelnen Äste erleichtert und somit alles an Ästen gleichmäßiger beleuchtet wird was dem Wachstum der Äste in Sachen Einheitlichkeit wohl mehr zu Gute kommt) euch noch ne schöne rest woche......

Added temp and fan controllers to keep the new ones happy as they were being neglected a bit .

increasing nutrient doses, monitoring EC and pH doesn't bear fruit, I think. Training also takes its toll and the girls flourish. We will continue to feed and observe... Second half of week brings quite intensive growth. Continue with LST, because need light penetration and some leaves out with same purpose. What does next days bring? I am exciting...

Skywalker came down mid week with mostly cloudy trichomes. Probably could’ve pulled it longer but it looked ready to me and I’m expecting kush effects anyway. Blueberry has a beautiful fade that would probably have scared me my first grow. She has definitely had calcium issues which is causing some leaves to burn crispy. That can all be cut away after drying so im not too concerned. Arguably i could’ve chopped her this week but i think she has more to do before her time is up Glueberry OG just now getting some yellowing of leaves. Hard to tell if it’s a deficiency or fade to my eye but i top dressed a small amount of NLS concentrate before it gets much further along. This might be a mistake this far along but I’m willing to learn from it if it is

From the start to the finish it was an amazing experience with this Jamaican lambsbread , the harvest is awesome I does only 1 month (30 days) of vegetative state !!!!!!!!!

Week 9, 3 gal transfer into 7 gal....Healthy no pesticides problems or Nutrient deficiencies at all before the flip to

Early week 7 flower update!

Banana purple punch finally showed the tricomb maturity we were waiting on! She’s a heavy tricomb producer and gives amazing terps. I can’t wait to see what flavonoids she holds. This grow was absolutely amazing,can’t wait to start the next!

Well I said I was leaving her untrained but on day 56 I gently tied back a few branches to open up the canopy. This is looking like it's going to be my best grow yet.

This was a real fun strain !! Definitely do it over and over again ! Thank you Fastbuds!! I’m not sure of the weight yet ,I have them hanging low an slow for 12- 14 days to try then will be trim , cure , the fun stuff!✌️Peace, love, and Positive Vibes to y’all cheers 🔥😤💨💨💨💨🤙 I will be letting know the final weight soon as it’s done drying!

GSC BY KANNABIA Week #21 Week #10 Flower This is the last week for feeding the plant trichomes are about 50% clear 50% milky so it's about that time. This plant is a beautiful lady!! Stay Growing!! Thank you for taking a look!!

Uneventful week, hot, dry, defoliating a little inside, drip every 3 days, still doing foliar spray for pests. Flower sites are slowly developing, really just beginning. Should easily be finished be end of Sept.

"difficult week of change, mess more know when something says not to give up and you persist, if it is a dream something real go deep confident. I set up the tent, even though the space was small, I didn’t give up until the end, with these, I don’t know if from now on I will continue this beautiful work, things became difficult. More in the meantime 😁 let's go for another week. They are doing well, the best of what I imagined is a great genetics that has been dealing as a veteran, great strong smell, wide and thin leaves already creating the famous, THC terpenes, a robust plant. I hope it is pleasing the community and whoever visits I always thank you for your time, thank you for visiting even for a moment.

They are all putting on weight quickly and taking shape very impressed with all of them and they prob have another week or so before flush/harvest.
