First pic is showing off some of the stretch that has occurred. We start “Above the Stakes”this week. -Sun 10th; it looks like the R plant is making a solid effort in its Stretch, which has just begun & is really happening. The L plant is flourishing and nearing the end of its own stretch. There is an image of the pair with 3’ showing on a tape measure as reference. Jan 11 Good things are happening as the circle of branches starts fill in ! ** as a side note, the Uv-B is going back on for 6hrs a cycle (3+3) after some more reading and the recent stretch action from the plant on the R. Nothing wrong with a weeks delay in nature between sisters & UV-B sounds like solid tech. Power is on again ** - Dinner-time after 4 days. - Hole drilled in overhead corner-bracket, to help Centre the Light. - Plants have been rotated a bit, LST (lashing-some-timber lol) re-positioned a bunch of branches/stakes, meshing the two plants together, in the middle. nuf snapshots. details as the week-ends. -Nutrient ratios are Max’d as the volume will continue to climb for 2 more big feeds. -rapid-start & cal/mg have already been dialed back a bit. My watering volume per/24hr now shows my water use in metric. That # is based on the last 2 meals and I’m now looking at 5 days without nutes... 14th, Steady progress all the way round. Moving lights and supports as needed. Reach continues on the Right plant, while the Left continues to look amazing -molasses in next feed (Sat), TDS to be updated 15th -the volume of water my plants have been receiving, has been larger each of the last 4 feedings. Extra time between feeds has been allotted and watering based on Pot weight/dryness is keeping the plants Full and Green. -The next feed will be half the volume of the last one. The goal tomorrow (day 5 since last feed) is to immediately satisfy the plants nutritional needs with a small meal (7 litres/2), but then it’s going to scream for more food. This time I will wait only 2 days and return to the larger volume and a 4-5 day cycle. That’s the plan. Goal was to raise both the volume and demand for more nutrients. (Without creating a swamp) It’s been kind of patchwork getting the numbers-up, and this is the first pause in that steady climb. Both plants seem to be firing in all cylinders. Sun Jan17 - adding Molasses to each feeding from Week 5 on in to harvest. - 2 days since last half-feed. Big feed tonight and 5 day gap next. -Reached my Max H2o volume with solid Nutrition #’s. Plan is to hold levels for week 5/6 and then begin to taper nutes & volume slightly in 7/8 and hold till flush (11) & harvest (12/13) ** this grow is my best effort yet, if anybody sees or feels it’s getting “sideways”... I would love to hear about your opinion/concerns. ** The buds that are forming, actually have some substance to them. Tired of Indoor Popcorn. This grow is hapnin

26.04. Day 90 Day 50 of flower, and the tent is an absolute showpiece. The buds are looking ripe, dense, and coated in a thick layer of frost – a true visual treat. Even the plants that struggled earlier have pulled through and are now showcasing stunning, resin-drenched flowers. The overall canopy is shining, and every plant tells its own little success story. If things continue like this, harvest time isn’t far off – just a little more patience, and then it’s time to reap the rewards! ******************************************* 10L RO Water // ph- // ph 6,2 // every second day *******************************************

All is going well. But noticed the top leaf tips turning brown, raised the lights and will keep an eye on it. Apart from that it has been a standard week.

Day 106. Pure water for both girls and heavy feed on friday. It will be last feed for FastDiesel. Girls are running fine and its so sad to leave them when they a such beuties ;) Day 108. I just fed them hard and left for 3 weeks almost. There will be no updates till then. Girls just flower, pray and bloom and i am very happy with that. Nothing to add. Strawberry would need a bit of LST, because her branches growed back to centre again, but i flattend the canopy for last time and now fingers crossed ;))) Tried Fim on Strawb girl, so very high atempt brough interesting double bud, we shall see is there any profit in such action, this type of FIM produces almost no split branching. Other parts recovered better from lower FIM and made Y form double little colas. Still think that 5 days after heavy training not enough before flower , i think 7-9 days for proper cola to develop. P.s. in Tangies harvest i showed how little nutes i used for all this grow.

Week 8 there hasn’t been any drastic changes for either of the girls. Girl #1 is looking better and better each day. Girl #2 is just being as stubborn as can be. Girl #2 still hasn’t showed any signs of flowering. I’m gonna continue to be patient with her she’s a very late bloomer. I can’t believe she’s been in veg for 8 weeks.I know some of you expert growers have experienced a long veg similar to my experience.Not sure if it’s good or bad luck just yet being my first run of autos. I have to admit. When i saw this week coming to The end and girl #2 wasn’t showing signs of flowering, I got down face to face with her quietly whispering (You better flower soon or it’s time for the trash can 😂😂) lol 😆 I had a weak moment was very frustrated. I thank all of you that have shared your information cause without it I would have been panicking. I’m gonna be patient and let the plant tell me when she’s ready. Everything has been running smoothly. I have given both girls light bloom nutrients. I have learned so much and it has been a pleasure watching the magic happen. Thank all of those who have viewed my diary. Thank you again for your support.

She didn't like the toping done at week 3 at all! She it's by far the shortest in the tent. She does make up for her size by how pretty she is. Already peach/off white pistills she is going to be a beauty! Like her size she doesn't drink much .5 gal every day and she's fine!

Well 2 got chopped down as the trichomes were nice and milky. The other 2 I completely defoliated and gave a good shot of nutes. The roots seemed a little on the moist side. 1 plant gave 147grams wet the dark plant gave 155 grams of wet.

My tiny potter is doing pretty good. It is a hard grow with the plant this size. The window for ph error is very small since it dries the potter out in a few hours. It is very root bound, and drainage is very slow. I been feeding 2 to 3 times a day if I get the chance. I got a little nute burn when I increased nutrition a little too early. The twin tops might of gotten too close to the light as it stretched. Regardless it's looking pretty good for a tiny potter. She is bulking now, still under the Mars Hydro FC4800 light. nothing much else to report. Thank you Mars Hydro. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

🌌 Skywalker OG — Week 1 Legend of the Galaxy Grow Week: 1 Stage: Seedling Light Schedule: 12/12 from seed Environment: Same conditions as the rest of the room 🌱 Medium & Containers This run includes two different setups for Skywalker OG: • PRO-MIX soil in fabric bags • Plagron Bio Light Mix in a plastic pot, placed in an AutoPot tray (not connected yet) The AutoPot system remains inactive at this stage. As with the rest of the room, the decision on which plants will be connected to the outer pots will be made later, once growth patterns are more clearly established. 🌿 Growth & Structure Skywalker OG is showing excellent early vigor during its first week. • Strong, upright seedling development • Long, elegant leaves • Healthy, vibrant green coloration • No signs of stress, deficiencies, or irregular behavior Despite the different soils and containers, all plants are developing beautifully, with no noticeable differences so far. Growth has been uniform and confident across the board. Vegetative Feeding & Foliar Program (Standard) During the vegetative stage, all plants in the room are receiving the same feeding and foliar recipe, regardless of soil type or container. This approach allows for consistent observation and easier comparison between setups. Root & Base Nutrition (Watering) • Terra Grow Used as the base nutrient to provide balanced nitrogen and essential elements required for steady vegetative growth without pushing the plants too hard. • Power Roots Included to promote strong and healthy root development, helping plants establish quickly and efficiently in their respective mediums. • Pure Zym Enzymes are used to break down dead root material, improve nutrient availability, and maintain a clean, active root zone. • Sugar Royal Supports plant metabolism and microbial activity, contributing to overall plant vitality and resilience throughout the vegetative phase. Foliar Application • Vita Race Applied as a foliar spray to stimulate chlorophyll production, enhance resistance, and support vigorous growth. Foliar feeding is used flexibly, typically once to twice per week, depending on plant response and overall mood of the grow. The plants respond very well to it, and it is used confidently without signs of stress. Feeding Philosophy This vegetative recipe is designed to be balanced, supportive, and stress-free, focusing on: • Root health • Efficient nutrient uptake • Strong early structure • Long-term plant resilience The same recipe is maintained through Week 1, Week 2, and the full vegetative stage, unless adjustments are needed later based on plant behavior. 🔍 Observations • All plants responding positively to the feeding and foliar program • No nutrient burn or deficiencies observed • Consistent growth across different soils and containers • Seedlings appear relaxed, strong, and well-adapted 🚀 What to Expect Next • Continued root expansion • Faster above-ground growth • Potential early differences between soil types as development progresses • Future decision regarding AutoPot activation and outer pot connections For now, everything is running smoothly.

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 A6000 (for now A6700 will be doing all future updates) 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.

The third day of the third week(14,11,2022). To date, I have stretched my widow a little (I did it for the first time in my life). Pushing aside the upper leaves of the pineapple, thereby the lower floors will receive light. The lower branches have already begun to develop, they look the same as the main one. Pineapple has already shown its gender on the 18th day. This week we have a new feed BioBizz Top max and Bloom.Let's see what happens at the end of the week... 😏🙏
