Day 108: Harvested in the late evening, a few hours after the moon's zenith, the change from harvest time to sowing time, in the flowering phase. Tag 108: Am späten Abend, einige Stunden nach dem Mondhöchststand, dem Wechsel von Erntezeit zu Saatzeit, in der Blütephase geerntet.

Update coming.

Lunes 26 de Agosto 2024, segunda semana de vida de estas preciosas, siguen en giffy, próximamente trasplantar a macetita de cartón, iremos a Walmart a comprar sustratito para ese trasplante.

🌱 Skywalker OG — Week 10 From Seed (Week 5 Flower) “From Expansion to Expression” ⸻ 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here This run followed the same philosophy from the start: • 12/12 from seed • No early intervention • Let the plants express their natural structure For the first weeks, we did almost nothing: • No defoliation • No aggressive canopy control • Just environmental dialing and observation Why? 👉 Because structure is built early 👉 And once it’s there, you can shape it — not before Now we’re seeing the result: • Strong branching • Even canopy spread • Multiple dominant tops ⸻ 🌿 Current State — Full Flower Mode At this stage, the plants have clearly transitioned: 👉 Vertical growth has slowed or stopped 👉 Energy is now redirected into bud development You can see it everywhere: • Bud sites swelling • White pistils exploding across the canopy • Trichomes starting to cover sugar leaves This is no longer about growing bigger — this is about building flowers. ⸻ ✂️ Defoliation — Why Now This week, we made a move. A proper defoliation, and yes — we went deep. • Removed fan leaves with long stems • Opened internal structure • Cleared pathways for light and airflow Why now and not before? Earlier: • Leaves = energy factories • Needed for structure development Now: • Structure is set • Bud sites are defined 👉 Removing leaves now: • Redirects energy to flowers • Improves light penetration • Enhances airflow • Reduces microclimate risks This is not stress — this is guidance at the right moment. ⸻ 💡 Light & Canopy Management With the canopy opened: • Light now penetrates deeper • Lower bud sites receive usable PPFD • Top buds remain dominant but not exclusive This creates: 👉 More uniform development 👉 Better quality across the whole plant We’re no longer just growing tops — We’re building a complete plant. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Leaf VPD • Temperature: 26°C • Humidity: 60% Some might question this in flower — but the plants are answering clearly. 👉 Leaves are active 👉 Transpiration is strong 👉 No signs of stress This tells us: Leaf VPD is within a functional range Because: • Healthy stomatal activity • Constant water movement • Balanced evaporation The room isn’t static — it’s breathing. ⸻ 💨 Airflow — Now More Important Than Ever After defoliation, airflow becomes even more effective: • Air can move through the canopy • Moisture doesn’t get trapped • CO₂ distribution improves At this stage: 👉 Airflow = yield protection 👉 Airflow = quality insurance ⸻ Feeding Strategy — Full Spectrum Approach This run is using a combined organic + mineral program: • CalMag Pro • Terra Bloom • Power Buds • Sugar Royal • Pure Zym • Green Sensation Why this combination? 👉 Minerals: • Immediate nutrient availability • Precision feeding 👉 Organics: • Support microbial processes • Enhance terpene complexity • Improve overall plant expression 👉 Enzymes (Pure Zym): • Break down organic matter • Keep root zone clean and active 👉 Green Sensation: • PK boost + metabolic push during flowering This creates: Control + Complexity + Expression ⸻ ⚡ Current Parameters • EC: 2.0 • pH: 6.5 Balanced, efficient, and stable. ⸻ ❄️ Trichomes & Flower Development This is where things get beautiful. We are entering the phase of: 👉 Rapid trichome production 👉 Pistil explosion 👉 Early terpene expression What this means: • The plant is protecting its flowers • Resin production is ramping up • Final quality is being defined now Those white hairs? 👉 Signals of active flower sites 👉 Indicators of ongoing development And the frost… 👉 Just the beginning. ⸻ 🌬️ Stomata & Plant Behavior With these conditions: • Stomata are open and active • Gas exchange is efficient • CO₂ uptake is optimized This leads to: 👉 Strong photosynthesis 👉 Consistent growth without stress Again — the plants confirm everything. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Week • Bud stacking will accelerate • Trichome density will increase significantly • Aromas will become louder and more defined • Nutrient demand will stabilize • Slight leaf fading may begin This is the phase where: 👉 Structure turns into mass 👉 Potential turns into quality ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude — Always To everyone walking this journey with us: • The OGs • The new growers • The skeptics • The silent supporters • The ones who comment and share • The platform • The community • The sponsors • The genetics • The tools • The lessons Everything matters. Everything connects.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. 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.

2 of them got cut on day 66 the last one on day 69 but overall I couldn’t be happier with these babies they all put off some amazing buds & didn’t give me much trouble at all! This is by far my favorite auto of this grow & I will be doing another run with them! If you havnt already go get you some seeds from seedsman you won’t be disappointed! Will be back with more pictures, dry weight & smoke report as soon as she is done drying! Thank you to everyone for following & happy growing friends!🙏🏼🙏🏼✌️🏼🌱

week 5 of MD XXL flowering 😎 2 of the yellowing unhealthy plants are recovering after all, i wonder if they will get as nice as the one which did good from the start but well see. At least i can see some trichome forming on the 2 yellowed plants so with still a couple of weeks left i hope they recover. Not realy much more going on, im getting the hang of giving water, i just wait and lift my pots to feel if they need water or not, they usualy get a watering each 1.5-2 days 👍 Also temperatures around here are alot more bearable now so thats good.

Entlaubt und LsT bei 2 von 3 Ladys , Netz eingebracht nächste Woche Blüte beginnen

I flushed her for 4 days and give her 24 hrs of darkness before harvest . By that time her lower leaves are yellowing and the spider mites are still posing threat so i guess this it the right opportunity to cut this huge lady down. Thanks to my bro i was able to pre trim all the buds in 3 hrs . Doing this all alone would be a total pain in the ass . The wet weight of the buds stem is = 821 g , 29 oz The dried weight of this one lady is 137g which is not bad but is still disappointing for me , she is huge i could have gained more but overall it is okay :)). She has that mangoish and earthy smell which i really like . The high is more towards happy than a coach lock high . Some of this will be turned into tincture and will be for my dad personal use . Lets wait and cure this to see if it taste any better!

When I started the week of drying, I smelled the intense sheet cake and cherry from the flowers, it didn't surprise that he named it the je cheesecake.

Everything is going smooth I flipped her to flower because unlike the package says she is not an auto

🌿 RS11 "C" - The Balcony Giant Keeps Reaching! 🏙️🌲 Let's go! Week 14 is here, and this girl just does not know when to stop stretching. She is an absolute monster out on the balcony right now! 📈 The Details: Endless Vertical Stretch: She is still reaching for the sky! The internodal spacing is looking great, and she is building a super thick main structure to support all that height against the wind. Lush Canopy: Just look at those close ups the fan leaves are absolutely massive and praying hard to the sun. The foliage is a deep, vibrant green with zero signs of pest damage or nutrient issues. She is completely thriving in the outdoor elements. 🍃 Pre-flower Ready: We are getting right to that transition point. The tops are looking healthy and tight, and she is prepping to shift gears and start throwing out some serious pistils soon. 🌸 💧 Next Steps: With her being this incredibly tall, wind support is still the number one priority. I'll just keep her well-fed, make sure she is securely tied down against any strong balcony gusts, and wait for the real flower show to start. She is looking like a total beast! Let's keep it growing! 🌱💨

Hello everyone week 5 of flower has passed for this Cinderella Jack auto 👸🏼 For the feeding schedule i stopped feeding Power Roots and Pure Zym and started feeding Green Sensation 0,7ml/l Mars hydro FC-E6500 power 85% have a great day and wish you all happy growing 😎

moving on along. Amazed every time i open the tent. Anxiety waiting is the worst. So i also started another gsc in coco a few weeks back.

Hi everyone :-) This week the buds developed super ;-) All are beautiful 😍. Super genetics 👍. Blue Cheese pheno 1 is slowly coming to an end :-) This week I will start to use up the remaining nutrients and harvest in 10-14 days ;-) Everyone else needs something else :-) have fun with the videos, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🌱

So this is how things are looking for the ladies at the end of Week 5 of Flower, I have uploaded a video for you guys with all the information, any questions just ask away 👍🏾👊🏾😎

So this week I topped all my sensi seeds also have started introducing cal mag I’m feeding each plant around 500 ml every other day just before lights go out still running 18/6 light system two desk fans blowing air around! Two humidifiers as struggling to keep ph at 50! Not sure if I should buy a oil filled radiator as night time temperature is still around 15 degrees when lights and fans turn off! Not sure if I should be adding more nutrients? Some lst work on plants as some leafs are getting huge! Not sure if I should cut them?

Fat 🍌 Bannana Auto,Royal Queen Seeds

Flowering Update – Late Flower This week the plants continued to bulk up, and the buds are noticeably denser than before. The trichomes are becoming increasingly cloudy, showing that harvest is getting close. The weather has improved compared to the previous heat wave. Daytime temperatures are around 33°C, while nighttime temperatures have dropped to about 20°C. The larger day/night temperature swing has finally triggered some purple coloration on the Banana Purple plants, which was a pleasant surprise after weeks of waiting. Overall, I’m very happy with how both the naturally grown plants and the LST-trained plants turned out. One interesting observation is the difference between the Sour Jealousy plants: * The natural plant developed fewer but much larger and thicker colas. * The LST plant produced more flowering sites, but the individual buds are noticeably slimmer. This suggests that, at least in my setup with autoflowers and relatively small pots, LST increased the number of buds but didn’t necessarily improve the overall size of each cola. The Banana Purple plants are clearly the most advanced. Most pistils have turned orange/brown, and the trichomes are mostly cloudy. They appear to be about one week away from harvest. The Sour Jealousy plants are slightly behind and will likely need another 1–2 weeks to fully mature. After gradually reducing the flowering nutrients, I decided to stop feeding ATA Terra Max completely on the Banana Purple plants and continue with plain water until harvest. The Sour Jealousy plants will receive one or two light feedings before switching to water only. I also changed my watering routine. Instead of watering daily, I now water only when the pots feel light, allowing the root zone to dry slightly between irrigations. This should improve root oxygenation and avoid unnecessary stress. Overall, despite the extreme heat earlier in flowering and even a hailstorm that damaged several fan leaves, the flowers remained intact and continued developing well. I’m very satisfied with the progress and excited to compare the final yield and quality between the naturally grown plants and the LST-trained ones for both Banana Purple and Sour Jealousy.

Plant is growing well. Transplanted them from a 1 gallon pot into a 3 gallon pot this week.
