Week 4 (12/12 from seed, veg phase)
Quick clarification before we continue:
Last week, while putting the reports together, I mixed in a few photos that actually belong to this week. That one’s on me — I went with the flow and didn’t double-check the dates as carefully as I should have.
To keep everything clean and accurate, this update resets the timeline properly. From here on, photos and notes will match the correct week so everyone can follow the run clearly and confidently. Thanks for the understanding — now let’s get back to the girls 🌱
Quick recap for newcomers (Week 4 – 12/12 from seed)
Where we are
• Week 4 of vegetative development
• Light schedule: 12/12 from seed
• Plants are still fully in veg behavior (no true flower yet)
What defines this stage
• Structural building phase
• Root mass expanding rapidly
• Branching patterns being set
• Energy focused on framework, not buds
What we’re seeing
• Excellent vigor
• Balanced nutrient uptake
• No visible deficiencies or toxicity
• Genetics expressing clean morphology
⸻
What to expect this week
• Continued vertical and lateral growth
• Slightly faster node stacking
• Plants preparing hormonally for pre-flower
• Leaves staying broad and healthy
• Training responses (if any) remaining gentle and controlled
What not to expect
• No real flower formation yet
• No heavy stretch just yet
• No need for aggressive defoliation
• No panic adjustments — stability is key here

💚 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.
