Week 6 Report: White OG – Shaping Her Future 🌟 We’re at Week 6 of veg, and the White OG is thriving like a superstar! This week, I decided to take her structure to the next level by topping a few branches, and let me tell you—she’s loving it. 🌿 The growth is vigorous, and she’s shaping up beautifully to maximize her potential for flowering. Let’s dive into what went down this week and why it’s all so important for her journey. Branch Topping: Building a Strong Framework After recovering beautifully from her initial topping at node 7, it was time to refine her structure further by topping a few branches. For each branch, I left two nodes to ensure strong, healthy growth while encouraging a bushier canopy. Why Top Branches? Topping isn’t just for the main stem—it’s an essential technique for creating an even canopy and increasing yield potential: 1. Encourages Lateral Growth: By removing the top of a branch, the plant redirects its energy into the remaining nodes, encouraging side shoots to grow and fill out. 2. Maximizes Light Penetration: A bushier plant with more branches ensures that all parts of the plant get access to light, reducing shading and improving photosynthesis. 3. Improves Structure: A strong, evenly distributed framework sets the stage for a healthier plant that can support larger buds during flowering. The decision to leave two nodes per topped branch ensures a balance between promoting growth and avoiding unnecessary stress. Tent Conditions: Consistency is Key The room conditions this week have remained steady and perfect for her vegetative stage: • Temperature: Around 18°C—cool but manageable, keeping her growth steady. • Humidity: At 60%, maintaining just the right level to support her root zone and foliage. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD continues to provide optimal light for compact, strong growth. i will dim it up soon! These consistent conditions give her the environment she needs to recover quickly from topping and focus on building her structure. Nutrient Routine: Trusting the Pellets This week, I’ve continued with the Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets as the primary nutrient source. They’re working their magic, providing a steady release of nutrients to support her vigorous growth. As a backup plan, I’m always ready to reintroduce All-in-One Liquid if she starts showing signs of needing more immediate nutrition. For now, she’s thriving, and the pellets are doing an excellent job of meeting her needs. Training and Future Plans Topping a few branches this week was just the beginning. I’m planning to continue topping over the next few weeks to shape her into a bushy, evenly distributed plant. By focusing on creating a strong structure now, she’ll be perfectly prepared for explosive growth when we flip her into flowering. Looking Ahead: Growth on Overdrive 🚀 As Week 7 approaches, I’ll be monitoring how she responds to the additional topping and ensuring her environment stays consistent. The goal is to encourage her lateral growth while keeping her stress levels low and her energy focused.

Girls are loving the light! I was bit worried with the smaller gal and leaves pointing up, but with no sign of light-stress or anything else negative I've taken it as a good sign and they are just thriving so yesssss! I'm prone to want to defoliate as I'm use to growing in a much smaller environment (5 gal bucket lol) but I've been good and have only snipped a handful of leaves that were either blocking other bud-sites or restricting airflow. I cannot wait to see what this harvest brings in, I'm hoping for 3-3.5 oz (85-99grams). Now that they are flowering nicely I'm no longer using Gro, just Micro+Bloom with some calmag and silicate. Happy growing!! 😎

DAY 21 F: Hi all. Another productive week for the fast buds jungle and the #Fc3000 . The room is full of limbs , leaves and chunky stalks all rounded off with sexy little budlets dancing in the wind for me every time I open the tent . Makes me feel like Hugh Heffner !!!. All of the plants have finished their stretch totally now and a huge surprise has been the midget Mexican airline now being the same height as her sister. I expected her to stay smaller due to the past growing period ect.. but she has somehow hit the same height now. Her buds are not as advanced as the #2 M.a but time should change that too. #1 is forming some very nice looking open flowers now with bundles of fresh pistils to them too. Both of the six Shooter are looking productive in their different set ups. The #1 has reached around 2ft and has some very nice sites setting up now. #2 has been more spread horizontally and is a long distance from the light too. With the canopy height being dictated by the huge Strawberry Pie girls , I felt it would be a good way to see how far away the light can help develop buds rather than supercrop all the big girls for one squat lady. So far the amount of bud sites is promising and it does look as though they are getting enough to develop. Both of the Strawberry pie have really hit their peak with at least 2.5ft tops. Buds are for.ing nicely and the sides are also well developed and in good positions for their own light grabs. It does give hope of some bigger buds than the long node lengths would suggest. Let's see in a few weeks shall we. Lol They had a top dress of charge and life-cycle too to help boost the flowering stage a little. Soil is performing as expected and the watering is going well so far with no excesses either way . Until next time growmies , be safe and well.

Esta semana, nuestras plantas empiezan a mostrar las primeras flores. Ya tenemos la sala con las cuatro luminarias funcionando al 75% de su potencia y las he separado un poco más, ya que veo que con led, el espacio internodal es muy reducido. Añadimos a la mezcla de fertilizantes CALMAG de BioBizz, que aportará un extra de calcio y magnesio. Regamos cada tres días aproximadamente, una vez con fertilizantes y otra vez con agua. Comenzamos a reducir la humedad relativa en la sala y desconectamos la calefacción en fase nocturna, para que empiecen a pasar un poco de frío.

I welcome all my like-minded people who are in different parts of the world. I thank everyone who provides moral support to Russian plant growers. 👍 It's me again-an underground Russian grower with some experience with different strains of cannabis. Subscribe to my diary if you want to follow my progress and learn a lot about the life Of Russian growers, and the difficulties they face every day👊 Today my have my plants 62 day life. 9 weeks. today I visited my underground production. As I will have difficulties in financial investments, I had to collect from improvised materials additional ventilation and air filtration. In addition, I installed forced ventilation at the entrance with a computer power supply. Bubblelicious Auto-with the genetics of this cannabis variety I was familiar before, so knew what to expect from these plants. I can say one thing, it is the most delicious and sweetest sort of marijuana I grow. Also, it produces a lot of oils which I think it is suitable for extraction or cooking cannabis food. I look forward to the harvest Neville's Haze Auto - this variety of cannabis shows an unprecedented strength in growth, its flowering only in the early stages, and should take a long time before its full sexual maturity. In addition, I made my girls an intimate haircut, so that their genitals become like full-fledged women. In General, I'm doing well, thanks to this resource and the advice received here, I manage to fight with the stench, I'm free and I'm not going to finish my activities. Until next time. 😉

Thanks for all of your replies to my questions. I will be slowly upping the bloombastic 0.1ml every other feed until we get to 1ml. 3rd July. I done a light defoliate around the base of the plant, a few small bud sites removed that were tiny and 6/7 leaves that were dieing from the bottom to free up space around the soil. Day 44, lowered nutrition to nearly half.

~ 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.

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.).

So here we go in week 7 of 12/12. I'm currently having issues with my pH meter, or maybe my tank is just way to high on pH. It shows around 10.0 and that's not good so I truly hope it''s just a fault of the meter. I'm getting delivered new one today so I'm immediately gonna retest everything and give them looooong flush with correct pH and EC. EC shouldn't be too high and girls are very brave so far, I haven't really noticed any signs of nut burns or pH burns. Let's hope it's not gonna go wrong until new meter arrives, Other than that smell is pretty strong, I'd say maybe too strong even for me and I usually don't mind the aroma at all :) Together with new pH meter I'm getting new HPS bulb (the old one has already done 3 grows over 3 years), and dehumidifier, because I have had some issues with mould during my previous grows. I'd say 3 more weeks of feeding and 2 weeks of flush and we should be done. I wish I switched earlier because 2 plants can't really fit there and I accidentally snapped 2 main branches so I definitely want to avoid this next grow. Thanks for checking.

3/14: Came back from a 4 day vacation to a lot of dry, wilted, dead leaves on Amnesia. Trainwreck is super starved as well. My automatic watering system didn't kick on, and the humidifier ran out of water within 24 hours, so there's that. It may be for the better though, as the PH of the nutrients had risen to 7.5. I tossed that mix, and made another 2 gallons of half strength nutes, molasses and epsom salt. I watered them both to runoff, and now I'll wait for Amnesia to prioritize which leaves she thinks are worth saving, and then I'll defoliate the dead ones. Hopefully trainwreck will just bounce back to green. She needed to be defoliated anyway, so this situation makes it easier for me to find the dead leaves. Edit: Came back to feed the last of the nutes and decided to pluck the crispy goners. I found that pulling the leaf stem downward will make the most dead leaves fall right off, allowing me to test a majority of the leaves and give Amnesia a major haircut. Luckily I left a lot of leaves from prior defoliation, as Amnesia REALLY sucked them dry. 3/15: Amnesia looks no worse for wear than last night. Trainwreck as well. Went ahead and pulled as many dead leaves off Trainwreck as I could. Some leaves were a mix of crispy brown and healthy green, which I think is pretty goofy, so I avoided taking any green fans but removed the crispy ones. The colors of the leaves around the buds are really fun to look at. 3/16: Amnesia is starting to SHED her dead leaves, allowing me to pick the leaves with almost no effort. I tested as many leaves as I could, giving another haircut. I would say this isn't a good thing, but since it's my first grow, I'm rolling with it. As long as Amnesia keeps the buds and its nearest leaves alive, it will slowly grow, albeit stunted. I'm not sure if this condition will cause it to finish sooner, but I'm going to need to watch the trichomes under a microscope every couple of days just in case she's ready for harvest. Trainwreck looks about the same as it did before. No new leaves are ready to be removed there yet. 3/19: Amnesia is still shedding leaves, but also bulking up. Trainwreck is slowly bulking up, and turning purple as well! Going to keep an eye on Amnesia's trichomes. Edit: because amnesia is yellowing so much, and because it's been 5 days, I'm going to feed both plants a quarter strength nutrient mix just in case I've been overfeeding them somehow.

Really happy with how things are looking. 2 of the 3 plants have gotten some benders added so I can hopefully score a few more bud sites in the next few weeks. Keeping feedings low and steady- should have probably increased them a bit by now, but I’ve got some burnt tips and I really don’t want to throw things off. 🌱 👊🏻
