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.

Rainbow Melon is a total superstar! It's easily the biggest plant in the whole tent. I find it really interesting how the leaves get all droopy in the morning, then perk right back up in the afternoon. It's like it has its own internal clock. I'm curious to see if this pattern continues as it grows. Last week was awesome! I finally got around to giving all my plants a little upgrade – I repotted them into some bigger homes. They're all looking so happy and healthy now, it's crazy. I can't wait to see how much they grow this year!

From the beginning to the end of their life, they were easy to grow. Nice structured plants and buds. Fast finishing at 49 days for these 2. Love this strain!

I think I didn’t use enough nutrients… leaf tips are little bit burnt, EC too high? I don’t measure my EC, only pH.

✅ Wedding Cake Auto – Final Harvest Report: Finished harvesting the remainder of my Wedding Cake auto. Main cola was taken earlier at peak cloudy with some early ambers (~10–15%) for a more balanced effect. The rest of the plant was allowed to mature further and came down with roughly 20–25% amber trichomes. Bud density was excellent across the mid and lower branches — structure held up well without support. She was grown fully organic — no synthetic inputs — in living soil amended with bone meal during flower. Dried at ~70°F / 50% RH for a slow 7-day dry. Cure will begin this week in Grove Bags (1 oz size). Aroma leans toward earthy-sweet with some gassy backend as she dries. 👑 Special Queen #1 Auto – Ongoing Flower: This plant has been a beast. She’s in the latter half of flower now with impressive lateral branching and heavy stacking across all colas. Trichomes are mostly cloudy with a few early ambers showing on the top-most bud sites, so I’ll be continuing her for another week or two to hit my preferred heavy amber target for a deeper effect. She’s bounced back from early lockout and transplant stress after being moved into ~8 gal of fresh FoxFarm soil with top-dressed organics. Water-only since week 5, and she’s thriving. 🌿 Notes: This run has really dialed in my process — organic medium, minimal inputs, and clean environment. Next steps will be sanitation, tent reset, and prepping for my upcoming tester autos.

Real flowering started this week. The stretch just started and the crazy bushiness continues. Did some fairly heavy defoliation on the under canopy and select large leaves blocking light to the bud sights.... but controlling the growth is a balance. Trying to keep as much photosynthesis as possible until I can really tell which bud sites will be the real colas. I did a full reservoir swap with flowering nutrients, and a pH balanced water only flush in between (about 18 hours just running pH 5.9 water). Once I put the new nutrient solution in, the plant just shot up. It was spectacular the difference in literally only half a day. I have noticed that a thin coating of something was on the air line of the bubbler and a couple other surfaces. Cleaned it off before the water flush, but still note a very slight film on the top of the fresh nutrient solution. It's a touch worrying but not sure it's an issue. Will watch carefully.

This is an easy strain to grow. I didn't have to use any LST. I am just waiting on some amber trichomes and I will chop.

My beloved Black cherry punch #1 by Pyramid seeds looks stunning, she's happy and strong, can't wait to transplant her and start training her so she can become a nice big fat bush, let's see what happens with this girl, I loved her performance last season, she has a very distinctive and unique smell, also provides a strong physical high excellent to finish the day or if you suffer from any muscular or bone pain

Week 13 in the garden, and it's been a week of contemplation and admiration. Despite my initial plan to flip the plants, I decided to give them another week in vegetation. It's like I'm sculpting a masterpiece, carefully grooming the plants into a perfect botanical sculpture. Working with my plants feels like art – it requires skill, love, dedication, and a sense of playing God. As I look at the tent, I can't help but feel a sense of pride and joy. These green beauties are turning out amazing, and I'm filled with overwhelming happiness whenever I get the chance to speak to people about them and show them off. But the time has come to take the next step in their journey. They're being flipped this week for sure, ready to embark on the next chapter of their growth. It's bittersweet, but I know it's all part of the magical process of growing these wonderful plants. Here's to Week 13 – a week of artistry, joy, and the promise of new beginnings. 🌿🎨
