Pilot — Week 3 Flowering Pilot enters week 3 of flowering showing a strong stretch response and excellent branch development. The plant has built a tall, open structure with long internodes and multiple flowering sites distributed evenly across the canopy. Flower formation is now clearly established, with pistil production increasing throughout the plant while maintaining vigorous growth. The training work performed during vegetative growth has created an efficient architecture, allowing light to reach deep into the canopy and supporting uniform bud development across all branches. The structure remains clean and highly productive, combining strong apical growth with excellent lateral expansion. At this stage, Pilot stands out for its vigor, plant health, and promising flower set, showing all the characteristics of a high-yielding flowering cycle moving into the coming weeks. 🌱🔥 Seed: World Breeders Grower: Piperoots 🇲🇦

Overall a great growing experience with FastBuds Gorilla Glue Auto from start to finish. She went 65 days and hit 27". Lots of big beefy colas. She always took to changes in nutes/environment well. End result is a bunch of smelly, sticky goodness. 380.8g wet weight. I'll update more once she's had a chance to dry... check back soon for dry weight and smoke report. Harvest Update: Ended up losing a lot more during my dry time than expected. Just barely hit two ounces of bud and about 17g of trim and popcorn. My wet weight did include a lot of stem whereas my dry weight reflects trimmed bag ready bud. But still... that's a huge difference! Still very happy with the results! The buds smell amazing, hints of pine and citrus in the smoke. Gonna let her cure up a bit and we'll be off to the races. I will definitely be popping another one of these off in the near future.

I figured nothing could go wrong with 50% amber / 50% milky trichomes. Harvest day, Medical Mass: Huge buds and no traumas but got bud rot because of too high temps. The best I've ever smoked. Harvest day, Pineapplex Express: Got an early trauma when transplanting but handled it beautifully. Potent smoke. Pretty satisfied for a first grow, and I have a lot of changes for my 2nd grow!

She's 4 feet tall!!! Wow! I'm a little concerned about light burn, but don't notice any signs of light burn yet. And she will be going outdoors soon. But I'm very impressed with this girl so far! 👍

She looks awesome thanks to the amazing organic living soil I prepared using Florians living organics which contains different strains of bacteria and beneficial fungus, also worm castings,seaweed and it's ver rich, it's awesome to build a living soil, plus a little bit of guano and seaweed that I added. And some beneficial bacteria bactrex by biotabs. Just using water to feed my plants.

Best of a plant. Another plant I wish I had a clone of. This would be an awesome plant to have a whole tent sog… has a great smell. The only thing I don’t like is it is taking a awile to finish off. It keeps swelling though so that’s good. The plant has some great resistance and such the leaves stayed solid health green all the way thru life

Skywalker OG — Harvest / Trim / Cure Part 1 — The Giants Begin First of all, we want to apologize once again for dividing this harvest series into multiple parts. But honestly… there was simply no other way to do this properly. This Skywalker OG run became massive. Not just in terms of plant size and harvest weight, but also in documentation, photos, observations, and the amount of details we wanted to properly share with everybody following this journey. So instead of rushing everything into one overloaded update, we decided to divide the: * harvest * trimming * drying * curing * and smoke review into three, maybe even four different reports. Mainly because we are dealing with: three huge plants all with slightly different expressions, structures, and personalities. And honestly? These girls deserve proper attention. ⸻ Quick Recap — 12/12 From Seed This entire run was done: 12/12 from seed with almost no training at all. No topping. No aggressive manipulation. No heavy canopy control. Mostly: * gentle leaf bending * small adjustments * minor defoliation * and simply opening light paths where needed The rest? We allowed the plants themselves to decide. To grow naturally. To express themselves freely. To shape their own structure. And what they became honestly surprised us. ⸻ Legends Of The 12/12 Galaxy These plants did not become extremely tall. Instead… they became monsters horizontally and structurally. Massive production. Heavy flowers everywhere. Dense stacking all across the branches. Everywhere you looked: * colas * side branches * swollen flowers * branches collapsing under their own weight Support or no support… it honestly barely mattered. These girls were simply too heavy. The branches kept bunching, leaning, and dropping from pure flower mass alone. Exactly the kind of “problem” growers love having. ⸻ The Fade One thing we absolutely loved during the final weeks was watching the senescence develop naturally. Toward the end, these plants received mostly: * water * enzymes * patience And they faded beautifully. The yellows. The pale greens. The autumn-like transitions. The dying fan leaves surrounding swollen flowers. It gave the room this incredible “end of season” energy. The plants truly looked finished. Not forced. Not rushed. Just naturally reaching the end of their cycle. And visually? Beautiful. ⸻ The Flowers Honestly… these flowers are ridiculous. Huge colas all over the plant. Top colas. Side colas. Lower colas. Everywhere. And dense. Very dense. The kind of flowers where even holding them lightly leaves resin on your fingers instantly. You can see it in the photos too: our hands next to the flowers almost look small beside some of these colas. And we don’t exactly have tiny hands. The stacking came out incredibly effective too. No wasted structure. No airy towers. Just thick, compact, greasy flowers from top to bottom. Exactly the type of structure we hoped Skywalker OG would give us. ⸻ Harvest Day So finally… week 14 from seed arrived. And it was time. We harvested the first giant. And honestly, carrying this girl into the studio already felt surreal. Huge branches. Massive colas. Beautiful fading colors. Trichomes absolutely covering the flowers. Most of the trichomes sat exactly where we personally like them: * mostly cloudy * a touch of amber * and still a few clears remaining Because honestly? It is impossible to have every single trichome perfectly identical at once. And this specific harvest window gives us the balance we personally enjoy most: * potency * terpene expression * complexity * and overall effect balance Not too early. Not too late. Right in that beautiful middle ground. ⸻ Charas & Resin One thing that immediately stood out during harvest was how absurdly sticky these plants were. Simply removing fan leaves and touching flowers started building resin layers onto the gloves almost instantly. And naturally… we started collecting charas. For people unfamiliar: charas is a traditional hand-rubbed cannabis resin made directly from fresh living or freshly harvested plants. Unlike dry sift or ice water hash, charas comes purely from physically collecting the resin through contact and friction. And honestly? We absolutely love this type of medicine. There’s something incredibly old-school and ritualistic about it. Sticky. Greasy. Dark. Aromatic. Almost alive in texture. Very different from the finger hash we’ll later collect during dry trimming sessions. Fresh charas feels softer, oilier, richer, and incredibly expressive terpene-wise. This Skywalker OG produced beautiful charas too. Easy to collect. Very greasy. Very resin-heavy. Exactly the kind of resin that instantly tells you: “This plant is loaded.” ⸻ Full Plant Drying After harvest, we decided once again to dry the plants whole. Entire plant hanging. All of them. We personally love this method because it slows the drying process slightly and helps preserve: * terpenes * moisture balance * aroma complexity * and overall flower quality This first plant will now dry roughly: 7–10 days under: * 18–20°C * ~60% RH Although during the first couple of days we intentionally lower humidity closer to: ~45% RH mainly because these plants are extremely large and dense. And with flowers this thick, we prefer removing the initial excess surface moisture a bit faster to reduce risks of unwanted issues like: * trapped moisture * stagnant humidity pockets * or bud rot After that initial phase, conditions stabilize again for slower drying and proper curing preparation. ⸻ What Comes Next The next reports will continue covering: * the remaining Skywalker OG plants * their individual structures * harvest observations * drying progress * trimming sessions * cure * and eventually full smoke reviews All while still staying within this same harvest week timeline. Because honestly? Each plant deserves its own spotlight. And each one brought something special to the room. ⸻ Thank You Huge thanks once again to everybody following this journey. To the growers. To the silent viewers. To the curious minds. To the old followers. To the new followers. To the skeptics. To the lovers. To the people stopping by for just a few seconds. To the breeders at Zamnesia behind these genetics. To Plagron for the nutrients. To Future Of Grow and Lumiflora for the LEDs helping drive this jungle. To everybody creating the gear, tools, and spaces that allow growers like us to keep learning and sharing openly. And especially to the growing community itself. Because without growers sharing knowledge with growers… none of this culture survives. From grower to growers. Skywalker OG harvest series officially begins. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

What a wonderful week of growth and flowering! been watering twice a day at 250ml per watering session, usually morning and evening. Not being able to plug in a humidifier has resulted in me misting twice a day as well.

This is being grown side-by-side with my LTP bag seed (see the separate diary for that). I've also got that other Chemdawg seedling going, and only one spot in the 7 gallon pot, so we'll see when it comes time to transplant who wins. That said, things aren't looking great here. After needing considerable help emerging from the seed husk, this Chemdawg has been growing lopsided, with a strong side and a weak side. She's also started doing the Lean. I managed to repair that - first with a bit of drinking straw, then by just filling up the cup with more soil - but this is not the best showing out of the gate. Her second node is looking a bit more normal, hopefully she'll grow out of her weirdness. Tent stats: - Lights: started the week around 220 PPFD, ramped to 300 by end of week. - Temps: seedling heat mat kept in the mid-80s (30 C). - Humidity: VPD has been set to 0.6 kPa.
