Before starting this final smoke review, I want to quickly apologize once again for the harvest report being uploaded on the previous flowering week instead of the official harvest tab. GrowDiaries has been acting a little complicated lately with harvest and smoke review updates, and instead of risking losing photos or information again, I decided to play it safe and upload everything there. So all the harvest, drying and trimming photos are already available in the previous report for everyone who wants to check the full process visually. 🌱 With that said… Welcome to the final chapter of this beautiful Amnesia Skunk journey. ✨ This report focuses mainly on the curing process, trimming philosophy, smoke review, aromas, preservation, and everything that happened AFTER harvest day. Because honestly… harvest is not the end. It’s just the beginning of the flower becoming medicine. After drying, every single bud was carefully hand trimmed, exactly like explained in the previous report. No machines. No shortcuts. No aggressive trimming. Just scissors, trim bins, patience, and intention. Hand trimming is slower, yes. But it preserves the integrity of the flower in a completely different way. The shape stays natural, the resin stays attached, the trichomes stay protected, and the flower keeps its personality instead of becoming overly processed. Everything was saved. The flowers. The sugar leaf. The trim-bin collection. The resin from the scissors. Even the finger hash that naturally builds up while trimming sticky flowers for hours. And honestly… these girls were incredibly generous. The trim-bin collection itself produced beautiful little resin balls full of aroma and character. Sticky, soft, fragrant, and surprisingly potent for something many people would simply throw away. And now… after months of curing… we are finally smoking this beautiful medicine. And wow. This one is honestly difficult to explain properly. The best way I can describe it is: it feels like a sunset walk on the beach. Warm. Gentle. Uplifting. Comforting. Peaceful. Colorful. She’s fruity. She’s punchy. She’s sweet. She touches herbal notes without becoming earthy. She’s fresh but deep at the same time. It’s one of those profiles that somehow feels like everything and nothing simultaneously. Nothing screams too loudly. Nothing dominates. Everything works together. Both phenos ended up being surprisingly similar in terpene profile as well. Different plants, same soul. And curing only made everything better. The aromas did not disappear with time. They intensified. Every jar opening became louder, deeper, sweeter, smoother and more aromatic than before. The inhale became softer, the exhale became creamier, and the overall smoking experience became incredibly comfortable over time. This is a long-lasting flower too. Not only in terms of effect duration, but also in how long the flavor stays dancing in the mouth after exhaling. The buds themselves stayed extremely dense and compact all the way through cure. Beautifully structured flowers with that satisfying weight and firmness you instantly notice when holding them. One thing that genuinely surprised me during curing was comparing storage methods. Part of the flower was cured traditionally in glass jars. Another part was stored inside the Zamnesia metal vacuum curing containers that came with the setup. And honestly… I noticed a difference. The flower stored inside the vacuum container seemed to preserve aromas slightly better and felt more expressive when opening the container. The terpene profile felt a little louder, brighter and fresher compared to the traditional glass jars. And that actually makes sense. Oxygen is one of the biggest enemies of long-term terpene preservation. Vacuum-style storage reduces the amount of oxygen surrounding the flower, slowing oxidation and helping preserve volatile aromatic compounds for longer periods. It doesn’t magically change the flower. But it absolutely helps preserve what is already there. And with a terpene profile like this one… preservation matters. As for effects… This is simply happy medicine. Not chaotic. Not overwhelming. Not heavy. Just… genuinely uplifting. Clear. Warm. Positive. Relaxed. The kind of flower that makes you want to walk slowly near the ocean while the sun disappears in the distance. Honestly, I could genuinely see this being a very comforting medicine for people struggling with sadness, low mood, emotional heaviness or difficult days. There’s something emotionally light about this cultivar that feels very welcoming and peaceful. And comparing the cured flower to the charas and trim-bin resin was also extremely interesting. The terpene profiles stayed very similar between them all, which was beautiful to notice. But the charas had this extra layer of freshness and brightness that almost felt “alive.” Maybe because it came directly from fresh living material. Maybe because of the way fresh resin expresses itself. Maybe because charas simply carries a different soul. Whatever the reason… it was heavenly. And now, as this diary finally comes to an end, I just want to send love and gratitude to everybody who was part of this journey. To Zamnesia for the genetics. To Plagron for the nutrition. To the gear that kept everything running day after day. To the platform itself. To the GrowDiaries community. To the longtime followers and OGs. To the new people just discovering the page. To the curious ones. To the silent supporters. To the lovers. To the skeptics. To the haters. To the people who only stopped for 5 seconds. And to the people who stayed here from seed until smoke. Thank you. Truly. 🌱 This chapter may be closing… But another one is already opening somewhere else in the garden. Stay tuned.

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.

Well not really much too update everything is still going well i guess, purple queen is really slow with starting to set flower mode is that normal with this strain? Or I’m i just not patient enough 😅 sticky beast is going really well also going strong into week 5! My best one most be the runtz #1 that is in week 6 the other one is chasing it but like I said already i broke the main root (not all the way) while lsting her. I put some ducktape on her but i think she will take a little longer then the number 1

1/25/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 1- took 2 Tops today and cleaned up a few lower leaves that were hanging down. The FiM seems to have worked well and looks like I have three branches coming in where it was FiMed. 1/26/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 2- took 2 Tops from the sides and took a little of the foliage that was touching the lid. She seems to be doing very well.. Water change day tomorrow.. YAY!! will get a good picture of the roots and see how she is doing. 1/27/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 3- Water Change Day! I noticed a slight red coming in on the STEMS which I added a pinch of EPSOM salt to help correct. I added 36 Gallons of Water I added the following Nutes: Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil CalMag= .75Mil/Gal= 27Mil FloraMicro = 4.2Mil/Gal= 187Mil FloraGro= 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FLoraBloom= 3.0Mil/Gal= 108Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil EPSOM- 1 big pinch 1/28/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 4- I cleaned her up just a little bit on stuff hanging down. I also made sure the PH is balanced so she could soak up the New Nutes. 1/29/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 5- I Got sick, Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/30/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 6- I was still to sick to go to my grow room... Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/31/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 7- First day back.. Her PH was down to 5.72 so I raised the PH back up closer to 6.0, I took a few pictures and got her height.. Feeling better through prayer so was able to get some pics today.

The pistils on all plants are getting more and more brown, its time to check the trichomes now. I check with a handheld microscope and they are getting milky, but not yet amber, which means they are ALMOST READY TO HARVEST, but not yet. The amount of crystals produced under the Q6W-Gen.2 LED-lamps from SANlight is astounding, the plants are coated in trichomes! This week I stopped giving any nutrients in order to FLUSH the plants, this is VERY IMPORTANT in order to get a smooth smoke of the dried end-product. The aroma of the plants is VERY STRONG NOW, they smell mouth-watering. The Shiva Skunk has a sweet, musky smell with a fresh citrus note to it, its a delight to smell those plants. The Serious Kush smells EXTREMELY fuely and gassy, like the OG-Kush, but with an amount of buds like the White Russian, its FLABBERGASTING. I cant wait to try those two strains...😎

the cycle has come to an end, the plants have been harvested and are being cured. the mother yielded 421 grams of dry flowers the clones yielded 303 grams of dry flowers. the variety changed its smell during curing, it became even more pleasant, the smell of garlic is not felt, fruit spices, very complex. the variety is generally very strong, not suitable for beginners and for daily smoking. I am very glad that such a rich harvest came out.

This week was good for the Cream auto. I performed some defoliation and undid the LST for a couple days as well as raised the lights to 24" to induce some stretching. I did selectively begin LST on the Cream towards the end of week 5. She has been getting 1/4 strength flower nutes and recieved a fresh top dressing of hot soil coco coir mix; as her roots were surfacing. So far so good. Atleast 20 budsites are visible and she has responded well to all the training and is coming into her stretch period. Now all we are waiting on is them white pistols to start shooting at the budsites. Hopefully week 6 will entail this! She should be at about half of her life span at this point. 4-5 weeks more of flower is expected before harvest.

Everyone says the plants smell amazing but I can't smell them! fml. They're supposed to smell like guava candy. Just gotta rest up more till my smell is back, honestly the worst thing about covid. Started flush this week, going to flush for 10 days including a 48 hour darkness period. The darkness period is when the buds can reproduce the trichome coating. It's normally used as sunscreen for light protection but much is burned off during intense day times. This is why it's best to harvest after a period of darkness.

Not much happening this week. Unfortunately i may have overfed PK as thought the bottle said 7ml per L but instead was 0.7ml. Noticed tips of leaves the next day browning so checked the feed chart again and pretty much shit myself. Flushed all 3 plants for about 5 mins and now they seem ok hopefully.
