š§ Folder #3 ā Amnesia Skunk
Week 3 Veg ā 12/12 From Seed
First things first ā thank you.
Thank you to everyone stopping by, reading, observing, and sharing this journey. Even when a plant looks āuneventful,ā those are often the most important moments to document.
And thatās exactly where Amnesia Skunk is right now:
quietly doing everything right.
āø»
š± Growth & Structure
This autoflower is growing beautifully and confidently.
⢠Leaf stage: Moving from the 3rd into the 4th pair of true leaves
⢠Color: Healthy, rich green
⢠Structure: Compact, balanced, well-spaced
⢠Vigor: Calm but clearly energized
Once again, I find myself asking the same question:
Are these autoflowers behaving like photoperiods?
Or are photoperiods behaving like autoflowers?
I donāt know ā and honestly, I donāt need to know yet.
What I do know is that this Amnesia Skunk is thriving.

šæ Substrate & Nutrition ā Going Deep
Substrate: PRO-MIX
PRO-MIX provides:
⢠Excellent aeration
⢠Strong root oxygenation
⢠A neutral, predictable base
This allows the nutrition program to shine without interference.
āø»
Nutrient Stack (Current Recipe)
Weāre running a balanced, biology-friendly approach:
⢠Terra Grow
Provides stable nitrogen and core nutrition for vegetative development
ā supports leaf size, color, and steady growth
⢠Power Roots
Focused on root stimulation
ā more roots = better nutrient uptake = calmer plants
⢠Pure Zym
Enzyme support
ā breaks down dead root material
ā keeps the rhizosphere clean and efficient
⢠Sugar Royal
Plant energy and secondary metabolism support
ā encourages vigor and future expression
ā not force, but availability
This combination works with the PRO-MIX, not against it.
Nothing is being pushed. Everything is being made accessible.

š¬ļø Foliar ā Vita Race (When & Why)
Why We Use It:
⢠Delivers nutrients directly through the leaf
⢠Supports chlorophyll production
⢠Helps plants during moments of transition or rapid growth
Why We Donāt Overuse It:
⢠Foliar is support, not a crutch
⢠Roots remain the priority
⢠Overuse can create dependency or imbalance
So Vita Race is applied selectively:
⢠when the plant asks for it
⢠when growth accelerates
⢠when support is beneficial ā not habitual
What to Expect:
⢠Slight boost in leaf vitality
⢠Faster recovery
⢠Enhanced photosynthetic efficiency
What NOT to Expect:
⢠Explosive growth
⢠Miracles
⢠Replacement for proper feeding
āø»
š® What to Expect (and Not Expect)
Expect:
⢠Continued steady development
⢠Strong leaf structure
⢠Smooth transition into later stages
Do NOT Expect:
⢠Forced stretch
⢠Sudden flowering assumptions
⢠Overreaction to normal autoflower behavior
This plant is not asking for intervention.
Sheās asking for consistency.

Weāve got much more coming as we move through the grow cycles. Trust me, you wonāt want to miss the next steps, letās push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together!
As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Letās 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.
š Growers love to all š
šø P.S. ā The Eye Behind the Lens
All photos in this diary (for now ā 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 ā itās how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words canāt always capture.
Iāve also started experimenting with photo stacking ā 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.
Itās not digital enhancement or AI; itās pure photography ā a way to reveal the plantās beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal.
Youāll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots ā camera, lens, setup ā because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.
