Ended up being a pretty successful grow , had a few challenges with summer temps but after switching from HID lights to LED lights mid flower ( which was stressful at the time ) the girls didn’t miss a beat . They aren’t dry completely yet after hanging for 10 days maybe another 3 or 4 days and I’ll know dry weight etc … that total decreases every day tho , can’t help but throwing a handful of bud on the dehumidifier every morning.

Still a few week before harvest. I have stopped adding N as much as possible to my nutrient solution. It might help the bud swell up a little more the last few weeks. Also been adding big bud and bud candy from Advanced Nutrients. I will feed the girls 2 weeks more before going into flush. My soil Sour diesel is ready for flush anytime soon. #1 (back right) have suffered from being to close to the light while also not having enough airflow around it. Have fixed the air problem but cant bring my light any further up. kept around 22 cm from the tallest branch 30< cm from the rest which is the minimum recommended. They smell really pungent and the suger leafs and buds are coted with crystals. My autoflower (front left) is doing good too and i really cant wait to taste it. A good week (kinda)

Ach ja, die Eiscreme-Zwerge werden weiter gefoltert... 😢 Nach dem Umzug in ihr neues Zuhause hat eine Zeitschaltuhr den Geist aufgegeben, sodass sie 5 Tage lang 24 h Licht bekommen haben. Das hat ihrem allgemeinen Wohlbefinden nicht gutgetan. Obendrauf kamen dann noch ein leichter Magnesiummangel durch ungeprimtes Kokos sowie kalte Außentemperaturen. Das Zelt wird nur durch die Lampe beheizt, daher wird es mittlerweile etwas kalt. Wir werden sehen, ob der gesamte Grow vielleicht doch umziehen muss. 😬 Als wäre das an Stress nicht genug, mussten die Damen dann auch direkt noch ihre Köpfe lassen, um das apikale Wuchsverhalten zu brechen. Außerdem sollen sie diesmal nur zu dritt ein relativ großes Zelt bewachsen. Lange Vegetationsphase, wir kommen! 😌 Wünscht den Mädels Glück! 👍

🌱 Erntezeit! Nach einer intensiven und spannenden Blütephase ist es endlich so weit – die Mädels wurden geerntet! Zum Schluss gab es nochmal eine 48-stündige Dunkelphase sowie eine gezielte Entlaubung, um die letzten Reserven aus der Pflanze zu mobilisieren und die Reife zu fördern. Die Trichome zeigten sich größtenteils milchig mit ganz vereinzelten bernsteinfarbenen Köpfen – genau das Ziel, das ich mir gesetzt hatte. Die Pflanzen haben in den letzten Wochen nochmal ordentlich zugelegt, einige mussten sogar gestützt werden, weil das Bud-Gewicht sie beinahe zum Umkippen gebracht hätte. ⚠️Das Video zeigt die Pflanzen noch vor der finalen Entlaubung - aktuelle Bilder vom Ernteprozess und den Buds folgen in Kürze! Jetzt geht’s ans Trocknen, und ich bin gespannt, wie viel am Ende wirklich rauskommt. Optisch und geruchlich bin ich mehr als zufrieden – kompakte Buds, schöner Frost, intensives Terpenprofil. Was meint ihr, wie viel kommt am Ende trocken raus? Und seht ihr eventuell noch Potenzial zur Verbesserung für den nächsten Run?

Another great week for the Apple Betty girls. I have not seen a single deficiency, other than the odd yellowed or withered leaf under the canopy, typically due to lack of light. I will come through soon and do a defoliation of both tents to allow for more light to penetrate, and perhaps get a good push for some girthy colas 😋. I have lowered the temps a bit in the tents by controlling my lung room temps, and they are maxing out at 77 degrees and hitting a night time cool of about 70. I have also lowered the humidity to hover between 47 and 52 %. Hopefully will start to get some nice colours as they finish. As I mentioned before, when I water is when I like to get under the canopy and check the stems and leaves for anything that shouldn’t be… and typically once a week after watering I’ll wipe down the tent and sanitize any surface I can. There is no reason to get lazy, that’s how you get Pests, Mold, and PM. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Humbolt genetics outdoor tested in Oklahomas hot summer and humid weather

Start of week 4 I removed the net because of a heatwave a put the plants in a cold room during the night The coockies are now starting week 3 of flower i gave basic nutes everytime they were dry Day 24: the temperatures are perfect (24 celcius) the buds start to show up on all plants

Day 35 - few pics and vids..... everything going along nicely 👍 This is a pretty big update, so i'll add to it over the next few days, as i finish building it all.... i'm building these 2 x SS haze, the full tent, just finishing up the setup..... trimming them, changing solutions to 12/12 and flower..... changed the exhaust fan and filter setup to the better outside the tent method.... and installed 12v CPU computer fan, lol ("alta9" fits in 4in ducting perfectly), drops wattage on extractor fan.... 10w tops... got a few kg of active carbon and making/replacing the carbon filter .... i'll add afew vids of the new setup in afew days... Day 36 - few pics/vid of new tent setup...... "alta 9" fan :) post tomorrow after i finish trimmin and settin up night mode etc...... and into tomorrow we go, lol ... Day 37.... slowly getting there..... little bit more to go... this should make things abit more interesting..... right tank (short babie) has : 19 lts of tap water @18oC + 150 ml -dutch master one gold FLOWER.... 6.4 PH - 1400 PPM left tank has : 19 lts of tap water @18oC + 50 ml of elements a and 50ml of b and 10 ml of nitro and 20ml of Crystalic (molasses/pot) .... 6.5 PH - 1200 PPM more pics / vids of the finished tent setup.... roots, transfer, etc... Day 37 is alot of vids of the clean and change to flower..... edit - day after build noticed left tank (nutrifield) not enough bubbles..... pulled out the 4 air pump and swapped to the 2 x original oxipumps... much better, also to fix the problem with ph goin high, and bubbles not stirin the mix, was to add another 10ml of crystallic and another 5ml of nitro... then pumped both tanks with ph down and set em to 5.8-6.2 - both plants have fully recovered from the big trim, and bounced back within 12-24hrs, post pics/vid in abit..... Day 39 - made a freaky video... was curious about what the plants would see looking up at the lights... the lights and buzzing of air compressors and bubbling tank water, and dazzling lights turned out pretty cool in vid editor, was in selfie mode.... and final vid of the bounceback from trim :) 👍😎

Buds buds and more buds!

8 weeks in flower today day 57

Skywalker OG — Legends of the 12/12 Galaxy Week 8 from seed | Week 3 Flower Another week in the jungle with our Skywalker OG girls growing under 12/12 from seed, and the room is looking healthy, vibrant, and full of life. For anyone joining the diary now, here is a quick recap of the journey so far. These plants were grown 12/12 directly from seed, a style I enjoy exploring because it allows the plant to express its structure naturally while keeping the cycle compact and efficient. After the early development stages and a recent defoliation session last week, the girls are now entering a beautiful phase where the canopy starts filling again. And as often happens after a good cleanup… it already looks like no defoliation ever happened. The Skywalkers are doing exactly what they do best: growing bushy, strong, and lush green. The canopy is filling fast, and by the looks of it, we may have another light defoliation session coming soon to maintain airflow and light penetration deeper into the plant. ⸻ Environmental Conditions At this stage the room is running slightly on the aggressive side, but with strong airflow and air exchange we are keeping things stable. Current room parameters Temperature: ~28°C Relative Humidity: ~70% (slowly reducing) Airflow: Strong circulation + active air exchange Yes, these numbers are slightly higher than the textbook recommendations, but the key here is air movement and gas exchange. With strong airflow inside the canopy and constant air renewal, the plants remain comfortable and actively transpiring. Still, over the coming weeks we will gradually reduce humidity and slightly lower temperature as the flowers begin to develop further. ⸻ Light Intensity PPFD in the room varies depending on plant size and position. Most of the Skywalker OG plants are receiving between: 800 – 1300 PPFD There is also one wild card in the room pushing 1800–2000 PPFD, but that plant belongs to another genetic experiment and not to the Skywalker OG group. For the Skywalkers, the current light intensity is pushing vigorous growth without visible stress, which is exactly what we want at this stage. ⸻ Feeding Strategy The girls are clearly eating well right now. Current nutrient EC: 2.4 Runoff EC (substrate): ~0.9 This tells us the plants are actively taking nutrients from the medium. As long as the plants continue eating and the runoff remains stable, the recipe stays the same. If feeding slows or runoff EC starts climbing, we adjust accordingly. For now, the system is balanced and working. ⸻ Current Nutrient Recipe The current feeding program includes: CalMag Pro Terra Bloom Power Buds Green Sensation Pure Zym Sugar Royal Vita race is available as a foliar spray, but at this stage of flowering I prefer not spraying the plants unless absolutely necessary. Keeping flowers dry helps avoid unnecessary risks. ⸻ Why We Transitioned From Power Roots to Power Buds Early in the cycle the focus was on root development, which is why we used Power Roots. Now that the plants are established and entering full flower development, the focus shifts toward flower initiation and early bud formation. This is where Power Buds comes into play. It helps stimulate the plant’s natural hormonal signals related to flower site formation and bud development, encouraging the plant to direct more energy toward the reproductive stage. ⸻ Why We Added Green Sensation Green Sensation is introduced at this stage to support: • bud development • terpene production • overall flower density • plant metabolism during bloom It acts as a metabolic booster, helping plants maintain energy while building flowers. The idea is not to push plants aggressively, but to support their natural flowering process. ⸻ Mixing Order — Why It Matters The order in which nutrients are mixed is often overlooked, but it is important for solution stability. The mixing process always starts with CalMag. CalMag is added first until the base EC reaches approximately 0.7. This establishes a stable mineral foundation for the rest of the solution. After that we add: 1️⃣ Base nutrient (Terra Bloom) 2️⃣ Flower additives 3️⃣ Enzymes and metabolic boosters Adding nutrients in the proper order helps prevent chemical precipitation and nutrient instability, keeping the solution balanced and fully available for the plant. In other words: Chemistry matters. ⸻ What to Expect Next Over the coming weeks we expect to see: • more vertical stretch slowing down • flower sites stacking • increased aroma development • stronger nutrient demand The main focus will be maintaining airflow, light penetration, and environmental balance as the canopy thickens. If the jungle keeps expanding at this pace, another selective defoliation may happen soon to keep the plants breathing comfortably. ⸻ Final Thoughts For now the room feels alive and balanced. The Skywalker OG girls are healthy, green, and moving steadily into the flowering phase. It is always a pleasure to watch the jungle slowly organize itself as the plants begin their real work. ⸻ Thank You A big thank you to everyone following this diary.

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.

She’s starting to produce trichomes all around. This week will be the last feeding and then she will be flushed until harvest. Slight defoliation when needed.

First off I need to thanks crop kings seeds for sending me such great seeds. I'm so close I can taste it. The Buds are getting nice and fat, and really stinky. Doing my flush tomorrow and running 15 gallons of RO water through it. I'm done feeding it and water only the next week then CHOP CHOP

And Another one, underestimated the stretch on the Mintz she can’t complain she ain’t getting light lol.

The transition is officially happening—the plant has now fully entered the flowering phase!🌱 The stretch is kicking in, and it’s growing rapidly, really taking off this week. It looks incredibly healthy, with vibrant green leaves and strong development. Thanks to the LST, it has spread out beautifully, allowing for even light distribution and great bud site exposure. I’m really happy with how things are progressing and excited to see how the buds start forming in the coming weeks! This one is looking very promising.💪😎

Dropped temperatures to 55-60F, added 2 hrs of darkness, and adding only water from 250 ppm - through finish. I guess I have to make them purple? Most trichomes are cloudy, so there isn’t time to freeze them to color. Going to chop in two days and call it a grow! Dumped half the res and dropped ppm to 0 and added FloraKleen. Will chop in a day or two. The bells toll…

hey hey growmies. Week 1 went well, not much to add here other than my first rodeo with Kratky seems to be turning out ok, I am a bit worried with how fast these roots grow. I might have to move to a bigger container sooner than I hope. Lower leaves are pretty much goners from transplant shock, its ok, she'll recover and get used to her new grow environment. LST will probably start next week, I'm considering not topping this Runtz lady, I will have the space for her to grow tall as the Flower tent will be available in a couple weeks at most. And I look forward to taming this strain, I have seen some crazy phenos here on GD Thanks for checking out my diary. Would you like to grow Runtz by Zamnesia yourself?
