at last we are in harvest week. im happy at all it was a good experience. my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are dense and frosty but very little in size! i had some mistakes and problems with this grow so i admit i wasted them . lesson from this grow : grow autos far from fems and always give them 20 hours or more light per day to get good weight in little time.

What up everyone. I hope all are having a great weekend. These ladies are doing good now, since I got the ph back on track. I did switch from grow to Bloom nutes this week adding a pk booster to the feed. I'll be doing a defoliation and lollipoping this coming week since I didn't want to last week with the ph imbalance i was having, I thought it'd be to much. All in all Happy Growing as they're looking good.

Start of 5 week flowering now she is been feeding with Marshydro irrigation drip. So far she was easy to grow with out any problem and she is a very nice plant

Flowering 11.

I fed the plants 75% nutrients for it's very last feeding although 6 or more leaves are showing signs of nitrogen deficiency but the buds are still growing, all signs show that I think they need 2 more weeks. Most pistols are amber, and a few new pistols still grow from the tops or sides of each bud. New sugar leaf growth on the tops look more rounded. The trichomes on the oldest sugar leaves have turned amber, less so on middle and top. Trichomes on the buds range from appearing clear, cloudy and milky, but not amber. I want the trichomes on the buds to be anywhere between 10-30% amber.

First week of flowering

Que pasa familia, vamos con la novena y última semana de floración de estas Drizl Pickl feminizadas de Seedstockers. Vamos al lío ,se trasplantaron en macetas de 7 litros definitivamente. El ph se controla en 6.0 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/20 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 75% de potencia. Al final a salido todo bien ahora a pegar machete y a preparar el proceso de secado. Las flores salieron bien densas y tricomadas. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

🌿 Amnesia Skunk Auto — Week 10 From Seed (Week 6 Flower) 🔄 Quick Recap — How We Got Here For anyone just joining us, welcome 🤝 This run has been 12/12 from seed, building structure early and transitioning naturally into flower without interruption. What we are seeing now is the result of consistency over intervention — letting the plant express while guiding environment and inputs with intention. Last week marked an important moment: 👉 minimal intervention until now… 👉 and then, a necessary defoliation to rebalance the canopy We’re now entering a phase where the plant is no longer building — it’s refining, stacking, and expressing fully. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment — Dialed for Transpiration & Expression • Temperature: 26°C • Humidity: 60% • CO₂: ~1000 ppm This combination is not random — it’s intentional. At this stage, we are pushing leaf surface activity (leaf VPD / EPD balance) to keep: • stomata open • transpiration active • nutrient flow constant This is why these plants are drinking ~1.8L per day in 14.5L soil. 👉 That’s not just “thirsty” — that’s a fully active metabolic system. When a plant drinks like this: • roots are oxygenated • nutrients are moving • photosynthesis is running efficiently This is exactly what we want in mid-flower. ⸻ 💡 Light Strategy — Full Canopy Activation We are currently running: • Top lighting • Inner canopy lighting • Under-canopy lighting All LED. PPFD varies between 800–1500, depending on plant height. This variation is intentional. Taller tops receive higher intensity, while lower zones are supported from within and below — ensuring: • no dead zones • active lower bud sites • balanced energy distribution 👉 The result: the entire plant is working, not just the top Airflow across all layers keeps: • heat pockets controlled • humidity consistent • gas exchange efficient The room is not just lit — it’s breathing. ⸻ 🌿 Structure & Canopy — Controlled Chaos These girls are… big. Not plants — bushes. Dense, wide, expressive. Until now, we kept a low-touch approach. But this week, it was time. ✂️ Defoliation We removed a significant amount of foliage. Some will say: • too much others: • not enough I say: necessary. What we targeted: • blocked light paths • restricted airflow zones • overlapping leaves with no functional contribution What we kept: • active fans driving transpiration • structurally important leaves • balanced energy zones 👉 The goal was not to strip — it was to open the plant. ⸻ ⚠️ Observations — Minor LED Stress During defoliation, we noticed: • minor bruising / light stress on some branches Nothing major, but worth noting. Likely cause: • proximity to high PPFD zones At this stage: • plants are more resilient • but also more demanding We’ll monitor closely, but no current signs of impact on flower development. ⸻ ❄️ Frost Development — Outstanding Trichome production is already impressive for this stage. Why this is happening: • High metabolic activity (drinking + transpiration) • Strong, stable environment • Balanced nutrition • Full light exposure across the plant 👉 Trichomes are not just genetics — they are a response to environment + energy availability What this means: • strong resin potential • terpene development on track • good signs for final quality ⸻ Nutrition — Feeding the Engine Current feed (~EC 2.0 / pH 6.5): • Terra Bloom → Core flowering nutrition (PK-driven development) • Green Sensation → Flower density + metabolic boost • Sugar Royal → Carbon allocation + terpene precursor support • Pure Zym → Root zone enzyme activity, breaking down dead matter • Power Roots → Continued root stimulation (yes, even now — keep the engine alive) • CalMag Pro → Buffering + stability under LED intensity ⚖️ pH Control • Down: Lemon Kick • Up: pH Plus 👉 All inputs aligned and consistent — no chaos in the root zone. Why this matters now: At this stage: • plant demand is high • transport systems must stay clean • energy must be directed to flowers This feeding strategy supports: • uptake efficiency • terpene expression • structural flower development ⸻ 🌬️ Airflow & Room Dynamics With this level of density, airflow becomes non-negotiable. We are maintaining: • constant air movement through canopy • no stagnant zones • balanced humidity across layers This was one of the main reasons for defoliation. 👉 Light feeds the plant 👉 Air keeps it alive ⸻ 👃 Aroma — Loud Already For this stage… these girls are loud. This early terpene expression usually indicates: • strong genetic potential • healthy metabolic state • proper environmental conditions ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (Week 7 Flower) We are entering the phase of: • bud stacking • density increase • trichome expansion What to expect: • visible swelling of bud sites • increased resin coverage • stronger aromas What not to expect: • explosive vertical growth (stretch is mostly done) • major structural changes Now it’s about refinement, not expansion. ⸻ 🤝 Final Words — Gratitude To everyone here: • the OGs • the new growers • the silent watchers • the commenters • the skeptics • the supporters • the ones showing love here • and the ones talking with us across platforms Thank you.

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.

Another good week, flowers starting to show, looking good and bushy, it's gonna be a good harvest I think! Banana 2 - 50 cm Banana 1 - 47 cm This week is just water, next week they take another dose of enhancer as in the GHSC feeding schedule.

Looking beautiful

Day 97. Fast Buds Thank You !!!! Day 109. Girl is in jars and waiting for Christmas ;))) Happy Growing !

Solid week, she's growing well if I look at a week ago but I'm too impatient 😆. A look back at the week that was. After a trip to my local hydroponic shop I picked up grow bags, SCROG net, Growrite AandB formulation (Dutch apparently although wasn't on the drop down list here?), CalMax and LST tie. Day 19 I did her 3rd and final transplant to 20L grow bag. She didn't seem to suffer from it but will definitely plant into final bag from the get go next grow. It's too stressful on me LOL. Moved my grow tent out of garage and onto patio area as we've had a spell of hot days >35degC and the shed roasts. Wife isn't happy bout it but my girl appreciates it. Introduced CalMax and Growrite into her fertilising schedule. Trying very hard to stick to a watering/fertiliser schedule giving her nothing every 2nd day as suggested in comments (thank you!). Also started LST and at day 21 it's looking like some medieval torture scene! Would like to know people's thoughts on the LST, have I gone overboard? While I'm asking what is the latest consensus on topping Autos? Most people here seem to go for it but a number of vids on YouTube say otherwise? Also I was watching a video that suggested a great way to promote root growth is to starve her of water I.e. let her go dry for prolonged period (>4 days?). What are people's thoughts on this? Anyone tried? I am hoping for big growth in week 4!

Die AK-47 entwickelt sich prächtig und zeigt ein sehr kräftiges Wurzelwachstum sowie sattes Grün. Die Runtz x Layer Cake ist etwas später dran; ihre Wurzeln fangen jetzt erst richtig an zu greifen, weshalb sie obenrum noch etwas hell/gelblich wirkt. Da beide im selben DWC-System stehen, wird die Nährstofflösung nun präzise angepasst. 💧 Wasserwerte & Setup • System: DWC mit voller Hesi-Serie (TNT, Wurzelkomplex, SuperVit). • Werte: pH 5,8 | EC 0,97 (sinkend) | Wasser-Temp: 19,9°C. • Besonderheit: Der ORP-Wert von 317 mV bestätigt eine saubere, sauerstoffreiche Wurzelumgebung. Maßnahmen • Nährstoff-Management: Da der EC-Wert sinkt, fressen die Pflanzen gut. Ich hebe den Ziel-EC leicht auf 1,1 an, um den Hunger der AK-47 zu stillen und der Runtz mehr Reserven zu bieten. • Support: Die Runtz erhält eine leichte Blattdüngung (Hesi TNT + Wurzelkomplex), um die Nährstoffaufnahme zu unterstützen, bis ihr Wurzelsystem voll etabliert ist. • Handling: Beim Wasserwechsel wurden die Wurzeln kurzzeitig geschützt im Eimer gelagert – alles lief reibungslos. Fazit: Die AK-47 gibt das Tempo vor, die Runtz zieht jetzt langsam nach. Die Bedingungen sind mit pH 5,8 und kühlem Wasser ideal.

Chopped her down day 66. She's hanging rn, will update you guys with the weight soon! Looking forward to trials! She smells nice and lemony and holy shit I got a ball of hash off the scissors. The size of a button but still amazing for such a small plant.

This week the GMO cookies started to bounce back fast an hard from the leaf strip. At the start of the week all 3 girls got 1tsp of grow an bloom from roots organic dry amendments along with a feed of elemental at every watering at 1/4tsp per gallon of RO water. Add half 1/4tsp of dynomyco to the water also for some of that extra root support. Other then that slight adjustment on the tie downs an just letting the one on the right side just do her thing. Thanks for viewing an happy growing mates!

Flowering slowly, likely due to the roots having low PH(4-5).. I flushed her a few weeks back.. I'm done experimenting with nutrients for now; I had better results, with less issues with just using the basics. *Special Nug picture - This Bud-site has a different shape/structure compared to every other nug on this plant.. Never seen this before, on any other strain.
