Plants are finishing up, maybe another week and I can wrap things up. Buds didn’t get as fat as I would have liked but everything looks really nice and frosty. cleaned up all the plants with some defoliation.

Tag 25: Umgetopft in einen 15L Topf. Tag 27: getoppt bei 5 Nodien. Tag 30: Entlaubt (alle Sonnensegel am Hauptstamm entfernt) und mit LST angefangen.

CBD 20-1 has been an easy grow :) she likes full strength feeds And guzzles water like there’s no tomorrow . Her colas are short but they are fat and packed with resin and trichome’s She smells fruity and fresh and I can’t wait to make meds with them :)

🧠 Folder #3 — Amnesia Skunk Week 3 Veg — 12/12 From Seed First things first — thank you. Thank you to everyone stopping by, reading, observing, and sharing this journey. Even when a plant looks “uneventful,” those are often the most important moments to document. And that’s exactly where Amnesia Skunk is right now: quietly doing everything right. ⸻ 🌱 Growth & Structure This autoflower is growing beautifully and confidently. • Leaf stage: Moving from the 3rd into the 4th pair of true leaves • Color: Healthy, rich green • Structure: Compact, balanced, well-spaced • Vigor: Calm but clearly energized Once again, I find myself asking the same question: Are these autoflowers behaving like photoperiods? Or are photoperiods behaving like autoflowers? I don’t know — and honestly, I don’t need to know yet. What I do know is that this Amnesia Skunk is thriving. ⸻ 🌿 Substrate & Nutrition — Going Deep Substrate: PRO-MIX PRO-MIX provides: • Excellent aeration • Strong root oxygenation • A neutral, predictable base This allows the nutrition program to shine without interference. ⸻ Nutrient Stack (Current Recipe) We’re running a balanced, biology-friendly approach: • Terra Grow Provides stable nitrogen and core nutrition for vegetative development → supports leaf size, color, and steady growth • Power Roots Focused on root stimulation → more roots = better nutrient uptake = calmer plants • Pure Zym Enzyme support → breaks down dead root material → keeps the rhizosphere clean and efficient • Sugar Royal Plant energy and secondary metabolism support → encourages vigor and future expression → not force, but availability This combination works with the PRO-MIX, not against it. Nothing is being pushed. Everything is being made accessible. ⸻ 🌬️ Foliar — Vita Race (When & Why) Why We Use It: • Delivers nutrients directly through the leaf • Supports chlorophyll production • Helps plants during moments of transition or rapid growth Why We Don’t Overuse It: • Foliar is support, not a crutch • Roots remain the priority • Overuse can create dependency or imbalance So Vita Race is applied selectively: • when the plant asks for it • when growth accelerates • when support is beneficial — not habitual What to Expect: • Slight boost in leaf vitality • Faster recovery • Enhanced photosynthetic efficiency What NOT to Expect: • Explosive growth • Miracles • Replacement for proper feeding ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and Not Expect) Expect: • Continued steady development • Strong leaf structure • Smooth transition into later stages Do NOT Expect: • Forced stretch • Sudden flowering assumptions • Overreaction to normal autoflower behavior This plant is not asking for intervention. She’s asking for consistency. ⸻ 🙏 Closing Amnesia Skunk reminds us that sometimes the best reports come from plants that aren’t screaming for attention — they’re just doing their job well.

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.

Die Woche ist sehr gut verlaufen ich dachte eigentlich sie stirbt aber sie hat sich sehr gut erholt nach dem ich die Nematoden hinzugefügt habe man kann es gut erkennen da wo ich getoppt hab kommen und zwei weitere Köpfe und die neuen Blätter die wachsen sind wieder schön grün und saftig Sie ist nun auch in der zweiten Blüte Woche beziehungsweise der elfte Tag dann schauen wir mal wie es weitergeht.

Unfortunately I didn't get her repotted quick enough and my yield will suffer, bummer. All I can do is push on and see what happens. Just a touch of nutrients for now.

I start this in a "safe zone" of plain potting mix. It takes a little over a week for them to get into the pre mixed nutes. They should jump this week when they do. I got tired of waiting and watered them with 20ml liquid kelp, 20ml liquid fish, and 5ml molasses per gallon of ph 6 water. Roughly 2-1-1 to give them a boost on day 2 week 2. This week was a success. Pest have been controlled and the plants made progress. One plant gg4 #3 is behind the others. There's a tree top that throws shade on it for about 1.5 hours longer than the other two in the morning. This will be fixed for week 3. It's warmed up considerably with the day time temp reaching 90 plus f for day 6 and 7 of this week. This should really speed up the vegative growth.

3. November Alle drei Pflanzen weiterhin topfit. Trauermücken aufgetreten. Habe das abgelaufene Päckchen nematoden für die runtz genutzt. Hoffe es bringt was 4. November Cookies Gelato hat den harten Mainlinecut bekommen. Spitze wurde entfernt, Seitenteile wurden direkt danach abgeschnitten. Sie wird’s schon wegstecken. Tropimango und runtz geht’s gut :) Cookie gelato hat bereits wenige Stunden später die Blätter wieder hoch gestreckt. Stagniert. 5. November Alles gut. Die Schnitte wurden gut verkraftet. Triebe wachsen wieder Cookies gelato ist nun 21 Tage alt. Tropimango ist nun 18 Tage alt. Runtz ist nun 7 Tage Alt. 7. November Cookies gelato wächst. Sobald die Klammern da sind wird sie runtergebunden Tropimango hat schnitte und Lst bekommen. Topping werde ich noch abwarten. Runtz wächst 8. November Cookies gelato hat LST + mainlineschnitte erhalten. Wurde nicht mit gießen kombiniert da ich gestern gegossen habe. Tropimango erneut LST. Runtz wächst. Sieht aus als würde sie langsam ins Wachstum wechseln. Erster Triebe am einzahnblatt kommen. Dreizahnblatt erst frisch entwickelt. 9. November Cookies gelato wurde das erste mal zusätzlich mit Sugar Royal und calmag versorgt. Hab’s davor vergessen 😅 Shit Happens. Wurzeldünger gibt es konstant weiter. Runtz wurde mit wurzeldünger und calmag versorgt Tropimango hat noch sehr feuchte Erde. Keine Ahnung wieso.

Week 6 of Flower, 2 out of the 3 phenos are doing good (other is ok but really airy buds) the Mango Merengue has smaller bud formation then most strains i've grown. But they are really frosty and put out a strong odor, It has a sweet citrus smell and sort of smells like a Cantaloupe. Probably around another 3 weeks untill harvest.

Never used it . Bug on site.

So I was thinking that growth is quite slow in the last two weeks. Then I discovered that the roots were looking weird, and noticed fungus growing on them. So I took the roots out and you can see the problem yourself in the pictures. I removed the bottom part of the roots and I added new coco in the pots, then I placed the girls back. It's been one week now and I can see new roots coming out at the bottom of the pots. The strange thing is that the 2 plants that were healthy(completely white roots) are also having the smallest buds 😒 Btw, I also flushed them with FloraKleen and H2O2(10%, 2ml/l). Then started feeding again, but with reduced nutrients - 630ppm I also elevated the pots, so they don't touch the trays anymore and started using the dehumidifier(50% humidity). I also bought a RO system and started using RO water instead of rainwater. Damn, I hope the harvest will look decent!

At the start of the week these plants were trimmed. They are being prepared for the flowering stage. Then at the end of the week, they were fed one last time with Gonzo Farms - GROW, as a nutrient tea. Then, the lights were set to a 12/12 light schedule to set the plants into flowering. They were also treated with neem oil to combat fungus gnats.

What a journey it has been from seed! I made a lot of mistakes in the first few weeks of this growing journey. I feel like I had a mini-crash after finishing the first year of grad school, and although I am growing cannabis as part of my research project, I haven't been the greatest at paying attention to it. This is not an excuse. It has actually been a learning opportunity. I realized that my body needs proper schedules to function and grow, just like a plant. The problems with the plant have really been my own problems. Let's just say that a plant may be the reflection of the grower. First, the light cycles were wrong and inconsistent. I thought that I could manually control the light schedule for the plants and be alright. However, I was wrong. My sleep schedule has been very inconsistent for the past few months. Mainly because we are living through a pandemic, and secondly because I am a graduate student 😂. How naive was it of me to think that a plant could follow my own rhythms? I guess it highlights my 'plant blindness.' Second, the light intensity was low and PH levels high. In the last five days, I have learned that plants are living organisms (I knew this, but my plant blindness is quick to dismiss it, I need to stop fighting these "plant voices" (signals)) that require a proper environment to grow, similar to humans. Of course, a plant is not human, but it is alive and living. It needs water, a regular schedule (light (active) /darkness (rest), oxygen, nutrients, and an overall good environment to grow. Concern about the size of my plant at five weeks, I decided to conduct a few experiments at home. Here are my notes: Friday, July 23, 2021, I took the plant out of the tent at 6:00 AM and placed it in front of my backyard window that faces the Eastside, perfect for sunrise. On that day, I had a few errands to run, and when I arrived home, it was 2:30 PM. The sun was now hitting the West side of my house, and I had to move the plant in front of my bedroom window. At around 7:00 PM, I went to look at the plant and noticed that its leaves were looking plumpy. So, I decided to take a timelapse to see what I would be able to record. During "magic hour" (sunset), I recorded and witnessed the plant moving with the rhythms of the sun. Plant, like humans, function at their best when they are synchronized with their circadian rhythm. The pandemic has definitely disoriented us to the point that it has disrupted all of our schedules. To this day, I feel tired from everything we have all been through; how could I possibly think that a plant would thrive with such a messed-up schedule? The time lapse made me realize that the plant needs some structure to thrive, and so do I. So, as much as I like to think that I can be disciplined and follow a plant's schedule, I cannot. So, I went to the store and bought the Globe Suite smart plug to automate and schedule the light cycle to 12hrs of light and 6 hours of darkness. Saturday, July 24, 2021, the plant woke up to the set schedule of the lights. I checked on the plant first thing in the morning, around 9:30 AM. The leaves look much greener and thicker than they did the day before. Sunday, July 25, 2021. I was away overnight and did not arrive home until 2 PM. The plant looks twice the size it was on Friday! Today, I will water the plant. I got a PH test kit and realized that the way that I measured the PH level, the first few weeks was wrong 🤦‍♀️🏽. I measured the PH correctly, to 5.9, and added some Reefertilizer grow nutrients to the water. I watered from the top, distributing the water evenly around the stem. My partner pointed to me that the lights seemed dim for the stage of the plant's life. So I had my lights set at 100 watts running at 20 % 😅. I realized that I had not increased the light intensity since the first few weeks of vegetation 🤦‍♀️🏽. So I increased the intensity to 100 watts running at 60%. Monday, July 26, 2021. First check-in 7:00 AM: The plant looks like it loves all of the new changes that I have made! It is finally growing 🤗 The sun is out, but it is not as intense as it should be because tiny particles of smoke are present in our air due to the wildfires, and they create a filter that makes the human eye see the sun blood red. It is quite apocalyptic. Regardless, I decided to take the plant out from the tent and record a time-lapse. It is fascinating how much movement plants have despite showing no noticeable signs of movement (to the human eye). Tuesday, July 27, 2021. It has been five days since I have made big changes to the plant's schedule and environment. The plant is finally showing good signs of growth, and its leaves colours have changed to a deep green. I am not watering the plant today, but I am spritzing it with water. I decided to take another time-lapse of the plant, but this time inside the tent. As I was setting up the tripod for my camera, I accidentally increased the humidifier 🤦‍♀️🏽. Luckily, I noticed within a reasonable timeframe and reduced the humidity and made the environment better. I increased the light intensity to 100 watts at 100%. The plant will stay in the tent all day today because it is raining ☔️.

Last update. ill let her be, just a few more days in PH regulated Tapwater then' she'll get the cut. theres already a 2nd plant waiting to flower in there so im no to sad about the end. this was definitely my biggest learning experience when it comes to growing. good she was super forgiving. ☺️
