The Sensi Seeds Research breeding project has created eleven cannabis seed varieties. How? By combining new cannabis cultivars with a selection of strains from their long-established cannabis gene bank. For the first time in thirty-six years, they are opening the doors of the Sensi Seeds Research and Development Department. Week #3 Transplanted the seedlings from the cups to small pots (1,5l) at the beginning of the week. These small pots are perfect for pre-veg, they will be full of roots in 2-3 weeks. The wrong size of plant in the wrong size of pots will always lead to overwatering, this is why I use those intermediary pots before transplanting in their final pots (18l). The young plants are growing like if they were under natural sunlight, it’s very funny. The Mars-Hydro SP250 is imitating the sunlight, the plants are getting outdoor structures, they stand straight like if they were adults at only 15cm tall 😄. After 2 weeks in the cups with just some RootBooster they started to get slightly yellow. I have added some Cellmax BIO 8-2-2 with the RootBooster in the solution for watering after transplanting just to give them a lil help while the roots start to process the new soil (BIO). (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

This girl is just huge, buds everywhere, fat tops and lots of them. She is really starting to fill out and is super top heavy. I don't even try to take her out the tent now. Her aroma is insane, that typical haze smell, with a gas undertone. Super sticky and developing lovely sugar. Over half way now. Can't wait to get to the finish line!

28.8 Eight flowering week is done now and one week of flushing. Both look excellent but they'll go nine weeks. Other one maybe at day 60 because she already is pretty ripe looking. Barney's recommend was 60-70 days so I'll check at 9 weeks 63 days... I'll keep flushing and girls still swell and stack trichs nicely.👌 Not much to report.. Thank for checking in! Happy growing! 👽

Starting out week 7 the Auto Ultimate is really getting thick, I dont have a lot to compare it to but her buds are so much thicker and harder than the White Monster's The White Monster and Auto Ultimate both showed some problems on some of their leaves, mainly brown spots and yellowing. I checked the run off EC and pH and both seem fine and within range, my led lights were getting a bit close and most of the yellowing is on the areas closest to the light, so for now I assume light burn, I raised the light as high as possible and turned it down juuuuuust a bit. I will keep monitoring the plants as they progress through this week

10-18 She hasnt even acted like I bent her top! Recovered nicely. Her buds have turned upwards to welcome the light! 😁 10-19 Water, noticed some slight burn, will flush her next day or so. She looks pretty good other. Spaced some branches just just a tad. Cleanin up, while she fattens! Has a minty smell. I know Im rough, very grateful for these beans Weedseedsexpress!💚😻 Ill get my shit together! 💪🤘 .

This week the nice flowering continues. I bought a new light in China, Samsung LM301H 240W so I added it into my grow tent. The weak plant is probably destroyed and the yield will be very small.

19.1. - Plants are entering their first week of flowering as the bud sites are clearly visible and pistils are shooting up! 21.1. - Watered 💧 24.1. - Watered 💧 25.1. - Wrap-up of the week: Plants went through another successful week. Lots of bud sites are visible and already developing. I've also spot some first sugar. However, I've also managed to snap the main stem on the Gelato plant, not completely. I've fixed it back, so we'll see but I must have som bad luck as this was second time during this run 🙄 19.1. - 25.1.2024

2 weeks of flowering (currently 12.5h light) are done and the plants are doing well! I have upgraded the grow box a bit, I now have a TAPO sensor for humidity and temperature that automatically turns off/on the ventilation system Tomorrow the automatic watering system will be installed, more pictures will follow. Update: Watering system added, took me quite some time to install but figured out how I can make each plant get the same amount of water. It is a cheap wifi system from Aliexpress, 25€.

Skywalker OG — Week 2 VEG 🌱 12/12 from seed | Synganic approach Week two of vegetative growth comes to a close, and all phenotypes are behaving remarkably similar. Despite being grown in different containers (plastic pots and plastic bags), growth rhythm, structure, and overall development are nearly identical across the board. This kind of uniformity early on is always a good sign — it speaks to stable genetics and a plant that knows exactly what it wants to do. That excites me a lot, both for what’s happening now and for what’s coming later. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Development • Plants are currently working on their third node (third pair of true leaves) • Height sits around ~7 cm • Structure is compact and tight, with short internodes • No visible stress or irregular behavior Considering this is only Week 2 of VEG and the plants are running 12/12 from seed, this development is exactly where I want it to be. At this stage, the plants are clearly prioritizing root mass and underground work, and I fully accept — and respect — that pace. No rush. Foundations first. ⸻ 💡 Light Cycle Perspective Running 12/12 from seed means we shouldn’t expect explosive vertical growth early on. Instead, energy is redirected toward: • Root establishment • Hormonal balance • Structural preparation Top growth will come later — once the roots say they’re ready. ⸻ Nutrition & Feeding — Plagron Synganic Recipe For this run, I’m deliberately combining mineral precision with organic biological support, creating a synganic symbiosis rather than choosing one side. The idea is simple: • Minerals provide accuracy, availability, and control • Organics support microbial life, enzyme activity, and long-term soil health This approach allows the plant to: • Feed immediately when needed • Build a healthy rhizosphere for future stages • Avoid deficiencies while still staying biologically active Rather than forcing growth, the goal is to support the plant’s natural rhythm — letting roots, microbes, and nutrients work together. Same base recipe as the other diaries, but the intention here is clarity and balance, not speed. ⸻ 🧠 Final Thoughts Everything we’re seeing right now points in the right direction: • Consistency across phenotypes • Calm, controlled growth • Strong early structure These young Skywalker OGs are doing exactly what they should be doing at this stage — and that’s why I’m very happy with them. No chasing. No forcing. Just listening, observing, and guiding.

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. FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial NEW DISCORD - Official Server Invite Link : https://discord.gg/ksjAkA5T74 P.S.2— Light Intensity & Environment For clarity and reference, current light intensity is being kept in a moderate PPFD range, appropriate for early vegetative growth under 12/12 from seed. At this stage, the goal is not to push top growth, but to support: • Root development • Healthy leaf formation • Stress-free adaptation to the environment PPFD will be gradually increased as the plants establish themselves and signal readiness. Environment remains stable and consistent, allowing the plants to set their rhythm without unnecessary fluctuations. As always, light, environment, and nutrition are adjusted in response to the plant, not the calendar.

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

Moinsen wie man sieht geht es den Damen recht gut, sie fangen an Farbe zu bekennen. am anfang der woche gab es für alle 2,5L wasser+1L wasser mit 10ml/ Pk5-8 und eine leichte entblätterung damit die Luft besser zirkulieren kann da der mittlere Bereich des ScroG Netzes ziemlich dicht aneinander steht ansonsten war nicht viel los diese Woche. Ich denke mal das die Damen noch ca 3 Wochen brauchen werden bis sie ansatzweise fertig sind. Auf den Bildern ist es zwar nicht so gut zu erkennen aber die Damen werden lila schwarz an den blättern und die Knospen bleiben giftig grün nur die Dame vorne links hat nur kleine Flecken die sich lila zeigen aber ich denke mal das wird in der nächsten woche auch noch zu legen so lange die Temperaturen mit spielen! euch noch ne schöne woche ihr growmies

she has adapted very well to the change. a good increase in growth. she is now getting bio-grow from biobizz. and a little support. i am thinking of trimming her next week. i think she will be strong enough then.
