Harvested today, truly strong smell, cultivation was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Very happy with the result, anxious for the drying and curing process! Thank you for following along.. 🤜🤛🌱🌿🌲

I am not sure what the deal is with the Chibans. They look mutant to me maybe due to pollination. There is so much crystal forming up on them and they still look beautiful. Plant 1 is huge with big colas that are fragrant and very very sticky to the touch. Plant 2 looks the most normal as far as bud structure to me. She has not got the same flattened of tops but instead are more cone like . Also very very crystal heavy Clones 1 and 2 look like monsters to me. Their buds are bulbous and fat with a very flat round top and quite a bit larger then golf balls! I have never seen bud look like this but then I have never had pollination issues and watched the plants quite as much as I am at the moment. We will keep going with them and see what we get. I hope for some smokable bud and also some Sherbert banana seeds maybe🤪👍👍. Thanks for looking. Stay safe. Grow well.🌱🌱

Going to update a smoke report after drying. Going to do a 3 stage sampling on the cure to find the best time. Small bowl with no cure, small bowl after 1 week cure. If needed, one more test on the 2nd week of curing. Got smaller buds on this one but that is ok. Moreso excited on profile. Going to update the yield tonight

This week went outstanding. I did a final round of defoliation, and I am still feeding Flower nutrients with a PK booster. These ladies are ready to start stacking. The tallest plant is the Durban Thai X C99, and she is 50 inches, while the rest are all between 40 and 48 inches. It is just time to relax and watch the flowers form. I am still planning on harvesting on December 21st, but I will pluck one or two ahead of time if they are ready. I am anticipating the Donutz and the Cherry Garcia to be ready first but the optics will let me know. Thanks for stopping by, stay safe and Blaze on!

🌿 Amnesia Skunk Auto — Week 9 From Seed (Week 5 Flower) We’re back with the Amnesia Skunk auto, and before we dive into this week, let’s take a second to understand how we got here. This run has been a bit different from the traditional approach. Even though we’re working with autoflowers, the environment has been set under a 12/12 light cycle from seed — what we’ve been calling a “no veg” approach. Now, to clarify — it’s not that the plant doesn’t vegetate. It does. But it does so on its own internal clock, not because we extended light hours to push vegetative growth. So what happens? The plant never gets the signal to fully stretch and build structure like in a classic veg phase, which results in: • more compact plants • tighter node spacing • earlier transition into flower • and a much faster lifecycle overall And that’s exactly what we’re seeing here. ⸻ 🌱 This Week — The Story of the White Hairs (Pistils) This week, the stars of the show are the white hairs — the pistils. Those fine white strands you’re seeing shooting out of the buds are the female reproductive organs of the plant. Their role is simple, but powerful: They are designed to catch pollen. Each pistil is connected to an ovule inside the calyx. If pollinated, that’s where seeds would form. But in our case — no pollen, no seeds — so the plant continues to push energy into: 👉 resin production 👉 bud swelling 👉 terpene expression That’s why you’ll notice: • fresh, bright white pistils = active growth phase • constant new pistil production = plant still building mass And right now? She’s in full production mode. ⸻ 🌿 Structure & Development What’s really interesting here is the morphology. These are currently the most compact plants in the room, sitting around ~90 cm, but: • dense structure • tight internodes • bud sites stacked closely The buds themselves are already: • forming tight • showing early frost • pushing aroma earlier than expected For a plant that never had a traditional veg window, this is honestly impressive. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Feeding We’ve kept things stable and consistent: • Temperature: ~28°C • Humidity: ~65% RH • pH: ~6.5 • EC: ~2.0 Water intake is sitting at around 1.5L per plant per day, which tells us: 👉 metabolism is active 👉 root zone is functioning well 👉 demand is increasing as flowers build ⸻ ⚡ On the “No Veg” Approach This run continues to reinforce something interesting: You don’t always need a long veg phase to get quality results. What you get instead is: • speed • control over height • uniform canopy • faster turnover But also: • smaller overall plant size • less room for recovery from stress • everything happens quicker, so mistakes show faster It’s a different rhythm — not better, not worse — just a different way to grow. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week Looking ahead: You should expect: • pistils continuing to multiply • buds starting to stack and swell more aggressively • resin production increasing noticeably • aromas becoming stronger and more defined What not to expect (yet): • no major calyx swelling peak yet • no heavy pistil browning yet • no final density — we’re still building We’re still in that “construction phase”, not the finishing stage. ⸻ 🤝 Gratitude As always — thank you.

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.

Finally coming to an end this week, didn’t get to properly flush the nutrients out to see the leaves begin to fade but next grow i will pay more attention to this. Definitely needed to hold the plant up using chopsticks but hey it worked

Day 77 - Her flowers are forming nicely. Trichomes are forming! Starting to get stinky.

Harvested day 51 due to bananas 🍌. He is under developed and needed 5 or 6 more weeks. I'll dry and test, probably go in edibles.

Als ich dachte, ich hätte noch Zeit, hab ich mich komplett verschätzt und damit warscheinlich auch den ersten richtigen Growfehler gemacht. Die Pflanze ist viel zu hoch gewachsen ... was meint Ihr? Was kann ich das nächste mal anders machen? 😞

Do you see that SWAMPMONSTER in the corner of the tent there ?? The Queen towers above the canopy and the rest of the plants lol. It's really interesting from using the Smart Proteins, i think how they work is that the plant is able to process them and compensate any kind of slight deficiency which means that each plant that gets the proteins is able to grow to it's maximum potential and at the same time grow to its **individual** potential... that's why each of these plants has so much "character", because if you look closely it's less a question of phenotype but more like "individual expression".... INTERESTING !!! Anyway that's about the visual... my main concern about these is how loud they f-ing smell !!! ITS PROBLEMATIC, so be conscious of that if you plant to grow these one day ! REALLY REALLY LOUD, honestly there should be an additional category on GD like "problematic" which is beyond the "strong smell" category. I have two large carbon filters on two 1330m3/h fans and it's a problem. Hope you understand how unusual that is for a plant in veg lol... I think the smart protein probably affects how strong the plants smell because all the plants seem more smelly than expected... TBH i'll fix the smell issue but hopefully it's a good sign and an indicator of the quality i can expect by harvest time? These also got two rounds of defoliation , and i flipped them to flower like 4 days ago. This was an exciting veg to me, but now is when it gets interesting, let's see how beautiful these flowers are !! Test genetics always have that little bit of mystery to them right? By the way, I'm often visiting this site, so drop me a message about whatever, especially if you have advice ! Thanks for following along with me, i appreciate it really ! ITS FLOWER TIME FOLKS LETS SEE! 🚀

🎩🌈🍬 Pheno 4 Purps comin slowly Terps super exotic

Sunlight was limited due to heavy rain

🐵🎀 GORILLA GIRL XL AUTO 🎀🐵 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 📆 01/12 free day 📆 02/12 Nothing interesting today. 📆 03/12 0.4 of water at the correct ph and growtek for the usual ones. We are almost there 📆 04/12 What a delicious smell. They should call it "Sweet Seeds Delicious" 😂 It is shortly, the leaves begin to turn yellow faster, I will wait for them to drain properly before cutting. I assume 9 days still maximum. Very yeah 📆 05/12 Still settling in, no photos today, low battery and laziness don't get along very well 📆 06/12 ....... 📆 07/12 ....... 📆 08/12 I extend this week by one day, but now we are very close to cutting, a few more days and zac zac! Today one of them was dressed for Christmas, but there will be updates in due course.

Since the video, I changed from a drip method to a flow. Creating better circulation and less stoppage due to build up.

Overall this grow went very smooth and the purple punch bud is top 3 of the best home grown indoor I have ever smoked very impressed with the insane terps and heavy effects she brings to my table ,I am 100% going to be growing much more purple punch autos in the future

Trying to keep the humidity to 50% is a task right now . Swapped up the fan and carbon filter for a Spider Farmer 6 inch complete kit as the budget one from Growell was immensely loud . Serves me right for going for a deal on 4/20 weekend . Never go too cheap on vital equipment Anyway , first week of flower done , the runt is trying its best lol , the other two are doing great . Although the Peanut Butter cookie is now the daddy of the bunch . Looking forward to the flowering fun Managed to grab a dehumidifier for 30 notes from a local retailer . Taken it down to 44 from high 50’s . Every little helps :)

She looks stunning 🤩😍 beautiful autoflowering kush, this blackberry has a very kushy fragrance, earthy and kinda like piney and citric aromas. Very special, she's producing a nice big fat cola, shes very sticky already at the beginning of the 4th week of flower, beautiful purple strain to grow! 💚 🌱 ✌️
