Pretty much been hands off. Letting drip system take care of watering, and controller and inkbird manage climate and humidity. Been weening it off nutes. From 15-1800ppm to 9 to 450 today. All cloudy now so no more feeds. Little leftovers from final res top off then straight water till the ambers show up. Aiming for few. 5-10%

This week we start with some LST... The second Runtz didn't make it, so I've thrown it away now.

Now that we got the humidity back to normal, I treated each plant to fresh nutrients. The pistils on Chonga are starting to turn brown, indicating it'll be time to harvest soon (despite my 20 Dec prediction). Cheecha's pistils are still long and bright, so we still may be on track for her harvest in December. I'm going to start flushing Chonga this week while maintaining nutrients for Cheecha. UPDATE: I finally caved and bought a Grow Tent! almost immediately the temp rose from 73 to 77 degrees. Humidity is stable at 34%. I'm going to wait until Chonga is harvested before introducing the humidifier again to dehydrate chonga a little prior to harvest.

🌱 Skywalker OG — Week 6 From Seed 12/12 From Seed · Transition Into Flower ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — From Seed to Now Skywalker OG has been grown 12/12 from seed from day one. No veg phase, no forced speed — just letting the plant express itself naturally while guiding structure gently. From early life, our approach has been: • Leaf bending instead of topping • Minimal stress, frequent observation • No rush — letting the plant tell us when it’s ready Up until now, all work has focused on: • Building a strong, open frame • Keeping internodes exposed to light • Preparing the plant for flower without shocking it Week 6 from seed marks an important moment: 👉 The transition into flower structure, even if pistils are only just starting to show. This week is less about growth speed — and more about setting the stage. ⸻ ✂️ Canopy Work & Plant Training (This Week) This week we went a little harder than usual, on purpose. What We Did • Continued leaf bending, but with more intention • Light lollipopping of the lower, shaded growth • Selective defoliation (not a strip-down, not a clean shave) • Introduced plastic clamps to guide branches outward Why We Did It Leaf removal • Improves airflow inside the plant • Reduces humidity pockets • Helps light reach meaningful flower sites • Removes leaves that were blocking, not contributing Lollipopping (light) • Cleans up growth that would never reach the canopy • Helps the plant redirect energy upward • Makes future watering and airflow cleaner Clamps & bending • Opens the plant instead of stacking it • Creates multiple dominant tops • Avoids cutting or topping stress • Allows gradual correction instead of forcing angles We don’t see this as “defoliation” in the aggressive sense. We see it as guidance and clarification. Nothing here is done in one session or out of frustration. Everything is done slowly, plant by plant, read by feel. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update • Day temperature: ~28°C (successfully raised) • Humidity: ~65% • PPFD: ~600–850 (based on plant height and position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm As outside temperatures remain cooler, the room itself has naturally become its own heat source: • More plant mass • Higher light intensity • Under-canopy lighting added This allowed us to stabilize the environment without forcing heaters or extremes, which is exactly how we like to work. Airflow • Vortex extraction • Cross-winds with multiple fans • Constant, gentle movement across the canopy No leaf flutter chaos — just steady motion. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy This week marks a clear nutritional transition. • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 (transitioning to 6.0+ from now on) From this point forward: 👉 All feedings will be pH 6.0 and above Why Higher pH Now? As plants enter flowering, their nutrient priorities shift. A slightly higher pH improves availability of key elements needed for: • Flower initiation • Structural development • Energy transfer Nutrient Changes • ✅ Introduced: Terra Bloom — 5 ml/L • ❌ Removed: Terra Grow Simple, clean transition — no stacking, no panic feeding. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week Expect: • Stretch continuation • Tops adjusting to new light exposure • Faster response at exposed nodes • More visible flower initiation Do NOT expect: • Immediate bud stacking • Explosive flower size • Perfect symmetry overnight This week is about positioning, not payoff. The work done now decides how easy (or hard) the next 4–6 weeks will be. ⸻ 🧠 Final Notes This is our way of reading the garden. It’s our humble opinion, shaped by experience, observation, and patience. Everyone is encouraged to: • Try this technique • Try other techniques • Combine techniques • Or do the exact opposite Plants are teachers — not rules. ⸻ 🙏 Thank You Big thanks to: • Grow Diaries for the platform • Our sponsors and supporters • The OGs who’ve been here since day one • The new faces joining the journey • The lovers • The haters (they keep things interesting 😄) And most of all — the community that keeps learning 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. 💚 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.

Well I chopped this lady today at week 11 day 5 she smells and looks fantastic Smoke review : The hit is very smooth due too the extra long flush I did , and although the smell isn't great yet because it's now right at the start of cure , It's a nice body glow with an intense head trip with a mellow bubble , And that is after a small bong , I really like it , I would recommend growing this and would grow again , thanks for reading and following if that was you , Stay medicated and be bless Jah Rastafari blessing and love And the buds are nice and dense , will update once dry and cured :)

Second to last week started. Those damn gnats came back although I thought I had fought them. But I’m not to worried at this point. Put a few more yellow cards up and that should maintain the number low to none. Smell is great. And it really is sticky icky. Trichome coverage and density is very strong. Those are remarkably long trichomes. I’m excited how the bubble hash from the trim will turn out. Fingers double-u'd to not have happen anything bad in the final two weeks now.

Week three of flower is off to an amazing start! At day 22, the ladies are looking incredibly healthy. They're praying like crazy, reaching for the light, and stacking nodes like it's their job. The buds are starting to plump up, and the trichome production is getting intense. I'm so excited to see how they develop over the next few weeks!

Muy complicado . He notado un color verde amarillento , he buscado y todos dicen que es carencia de micro micronutrientes y nitrógeno , además un excesivo uso de P K haciendo bloqueo de nutrientes , según algunos amigos cultivadores ... estamos tristes pero siempre tratando de darle lo mejor . Te amo

4/1 💦💦💦 4/2👍👍👍 4/3 💦🍓z is burning. she should have been topped but I didn't so she's too close to the light, very sensitive on nutrients. Not going to flush, too much work. Just water for her next feed cycle. Also my Ph was too low so that will be fixed to 6.5 from now on. 4/4🍓🍓🦍🍑🎄👍🎥 4/5👍👍👍 4/6💦💦💦

Zamnesia's Lemon Cherry Gelato seems to be flowering very quickly; we're in our third week, and we have a nice main cola forming. It's a bit sensitive to fertilizer, so we only use a small amount of base fertilizer and additives, always monitoring for signs of overgrowth. We're growing in an 11-liter square plastic pot. Techniques chosen: The plant was left to grow and we pruned the lower parts thoroughly to give the upper parts a boost. We're 100% organic and 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we've chosen is the recently launched Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to get the grow started more smoothly and reliably, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week is more than enough, so we're not overdoing it. We're in the early stages of flowering, but we're well-equipped with nutrients and additives. We've added: - Pure Zym 1 ml/l - Silic Rock 1 ml/l - CalMag Pro 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal 1 ml/l - Alga Bloom 3 ml/l - Power Buds 1 ml/l - Green Sensation 1 ml/l ** Plagron recommends Green Sensation from the 4th week of flowering, but if the plant is a fast-flowering plant, I start earlier when I see the buds forming. The booster is useful while the flower is forming, and also at the end to consolidate. Choose your preferred style and calculate your results on the website: www.plagron.com Our new 720W Spider King lamp from Vanguard Hydroponics is now at 80% Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/531-growshop It looks more than promising. Try it. Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11242-zamnesia-seeds-lemon-cherry-gelato.html Z - Lemon Cherry Gelato is an extraordinary hybrid capable of offering a complete and satisfying experience to all growers and cannabis enthusiasts. This premium strain is the result of crossing Sunset Sherbet and Girl Scout Cookies, two strains renowned for their high quality and delicious aromas. With a genetic makeup composed of 60% indica and 40% sativa, Lemon Cherry Gelato produces stimulating and dynamic effects. With 26% THC, it infuses deeply relaxing vibes, keeping the mind clear and alert. Lemon Cherry Gelato easily adapts to any growing environment. Indoor plants maintain a compact structure, reaching 110 cm in height, making them ideal for limited spaces. Outdoors, this strain grows up to 140 cm. Extremely adaptable, this strain responds well to cultivation techniques such as topping and low-stress training (LST), allowing growers to optimize space and increase final yields. Indoors, a minimum of 600 g/m² is possible after a flowering period of 8-9 weeks. Outdoors, plants will reach maturity in September and, in optimal conditions, will yield around 1000 g each. Thanks to its innate resistance, Lemon Cherry Gelato is perfect for both beginners and experienced growers. You already know this, but I recommend it: here you will find many beautiful things, essentially "the best that nature has to offer."

É stato il mio primo ciclo di coltivazione e purtroppo ho fatto molti errori che mi serviranno da esperienza. Ho sbagliato inizialmente la distanza della lampada e le piccole si sono allungate troppo, poi ho iniziato LST forse troppo presto e non sono riuscito a orientare bene i rami per farle crescere tutte alla stessa altezza infatti alcuni fiori sono proprio piccolo rispetto ad altri, altro errore quello di non misurare il PH e questo mi ha portato ad avere inizialmente carenze di fosforo e potassio per poi continuare con calcio. Ho sbagliato le dosi di fertilizzanti che dal prossimo ciclo alzerò per provare ad avere risultati maggiori in termini di quantità e infine come ultimo errore riconosco di aver iniziato il flush troppo presto (17 giorni di flush) quando avrei potuto dargli almeno ancora un’altra irrigata di fertilizzanti per far gonfiare i fiori. Nonostante tutto sono contento ed é stato molto divertente e istruttivo, ora le piante stanno seccando e poi le passerò in concia per provare finalmente il sapore. Ho fatto una pesata a umido solo di una pianta perché tutte e due insieme non ci stavano ma credo sia sballata come misurazione quindi peserò direttamente a secco. A secco sono risultati puliti 68g, ho fatto una concia di 3 settimane e il sapore é davvero buono. Sballo da divano, molto potente come effetto. Sono molto soddisfatto

Sie saugt das Wasser gut weg. Alle 2 Tage gibt’s 1,5L Wasser PH angepasst. Die Tribe wiegen schon ganz schön was. Bisher wirklich sehr empfehlenswert der strain. Mit einer besseren Erde hätte sie sicher noch mehr an Maße drauf packen können.

Missed last weeks update. Been very busy with family stuff. Will be my last week as a vegetative update. Girl Scout cookies dwc is the only plant not in flower. Tent is on auto. Just trying to keep up on water. Lemon haze #1 alone drinks about 3/4 of a gallon a day. Installed my r/o system last week on Friday. Will be a big help. I went through 26 jugs of store bought distilled water last week. Terrible, never again. Lemon haze #3 has such a strong skunky, lemony smell at such an early phase. It’s a shorter stockier pheno. Lemon haze #1 and 2 share the same traits. I just hope lemon haze #2 shows out like #1 has. Wow. I trained her well. Like 14-16 colas on top. Really excited to see how gorilla cookies does. Giving her what she needs to perform and give me that high thc content. It’s already sticky as hell in the first week of flower and what a stretcher. Stems look like celery stalks. Tent is full for sure. All looks well. Temps and humidity on auto and rocking. Deal of the century on that stand alone ac unit. 600$ brand new, I got it for 100$ only used for a few months. Two soil grows are looking great as well. 1 each Girl Scout cookies and white widow autos in 4 gallon fabric pots. Half happy frog and half ocean forest with perlite added. Pretty much week 4 on those and I haven’t started feeding at all, just r/o water ph’d to 6. Both started flower within the last few days. Thanks for looking. Happy growing to all out there🤙
