Today is the last day of week 1 flower. I've been working on raising the ph in the medium of Zorro x Purple Punch 2, she was showing a Calcium Deff in the previous post. She was getting the same feed as the others ph 6.2 but instead of running off around 5.8 like the others she was swinging right down to like 5.2-5.3 so she's been getting a separate feed with neutral ph and her runoff comes out at 6.2 now which I'm happy with as I move into the second week of flower and where I got them all to with today's feed. She has shown no further defficiciencies since. Other than that they have all been doing what they do best and they have been happy all week, only really disturbed them to feed them, until today. Today I gave them a little training and bent their branches away from each other. Also today I switched their feed up a little but I've not added the changes to this entry because today is one day and the values are for the whole week but the changes today are as follows.... I took out Cellmax Rootbooster - pots are well rooted and I'm leaning towards flower production now as I come into week 2 of flower. I added Cellmax Flower Stimulator at half strength - easing them into flower power mode! I added Cellmax AlgaMax 1ml per litre - The kelp keeps stress levels minimum and I've done a little LST plus the last 2 days have been around 20 celcius which translated to 26 - 30 celcius in my tent. I alternate all watering one with feed and one without so long as they are in good health. Other than that not much to report, growths good, bud formation is on schedule with lots of pistils although they are 9 weeks old so they already had nice lady gardens 🤭 Thanks for looking in One Love💚 Fire Farmer🔥👨‍🌾

I'm afraid the Raspberry Pi's time got reset somehow resulting in the timelapse being taken mostly at night rather than during the day, which means there aren't a lot of usable photo's :(.

So, by the look of the trichomes I assume its a harvest time! Weighting and taste review after drying and curing. For now I could that that despite all the mistakes I made the plant managed to live till the end, smell wonderful and looks tempting.

🍋🍒 Lemon Cherry Gelato — Week 6 From Seed (Week 2 Flower · 12/12 From Seed) Hello everyone 👋 Quick recap and a warm welcome to anyone joining the diary now, here’s where we are and how we got here. 🌱 From Seed to Now, Quick Context These Lemon Cherry Gelato girls have been grown 12/12 from seed, and we are now entering what we consider Week 2 of flower / transition. Pre-flowers are clearly visible, stacking has begun, and the stretch is now turning into early bulk. They are in that beautiful in-between phase where they still look slightly vegetative, but their behavior is unmistakably flowering. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment Update • Day temperature: ~28°C (successfully raised) • Humidity: ~65% It’s still a bit cold outside, but as plant mass increases, lighting intensity goes up, and under-canopy lighting is added, the tent itself has become a stronger heat source. This allowed us to stabilize conditions without forcing anything, exactly how we like it. • PPFD: ~600–850 (depending on plant size and position) • CO₂: ~900 ppm • Airflow: unchanged • vortex extraction • cross-winds with multiple fans • constant, gentle movement across the canopy ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Strategy This week marks an important nutritional transition. • EC: 2.4 • pH: 6.5 From this point forward, all feedings will be pH 6.0 and above. The reason is simple: as flowering progresses, plants shift their nutrient uptake priorities, and slightly higher pH improves availability of key elements needed for bloom development. Nutrient Change • Introduced: Terra Bloom — 5 ml / L • Removed: Terra Grow This change is happening now, not earlier, because the plants have clearly entered the flowering transition. There’s no rush, no shock, just following the plant’s signals. The current recipe (our “Plagron” approach) continues to perform exceptionally well, and plant response has been outstanding so far. ⸻ 🌿 Training & Plant Handling We are continuing with a very minimal-stress approach: • No topping • No aggressive defoliation • Only leaf bending and leaf tucking This method keeps the structure open, exposes bud sites naturally, and avoids recovery downtime. Simple, effective, and extremely practical, sometimes simplicity isn’t laziness, it’s efficiency. The results speak for themselves: • strong branching • compact “ball” formations • clean stacking • healthy color fade beginning naturally ⸻ 📸 Visual Progress This update includes a large set of photos (studio + tent shots) to clearly show: • the transition phase • stretch turning into bulk • visible growth differences over just one week Every time the tent doors open, growth is noticeable, and comparing earlier photos to the latest ones makes that even clearer. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next Over the coming weeks: • stretch will gradually slow • bulk and stacking will take over • plant handling will be reduced even further • stability becomes the priority What not to expect: • heavy pruning • forced corrections • unnecessary interventions At this stage, the goal is to let the plants do what they already know how to do. ⸻ 🙏 Thanks Big thank you to: • everyone following along • newcomers and long-time readers • supporters, critics, observers, all welcome • the Grow Diaries Team and platform • and all sponsors backing the journey This is a key week in the run, and we’re excited to document it properly and share the learning with the community. As always — we’re here to observe, guide gently, and let the plants express themselves 🌿💚 FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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.

Day 94 Harvesting and making Hash with the cut leaves. 5weeks of veg and 9,5weeks of flowering Pot size 6L

11/5 -- They now have 2 weeks of 12/12 under their belts and it's truly been a tale of 3 plants for the past week and a half. GZ2- This one has the opportunity to meet its full potential. It has stretched to give me this beautiful canopy and very few signs of over feed or stress in it. Hopefully she stays this way. Moby- look like it may have been developing some deficiencies. I fed it a few days ago and it seemed to respond well. Some leaves have gotten yellow but the plant is do thick and dense I'm not worried about a few falling off. All in all, it's been steady eddy for Moby Dick that I now believe is also a Barney's Farm Freebie(the seed is now listed where I buy mine from) I'm not going to change it but if you're keeping track, this is most likely a tent full of Barney's Farm. Gz1- and now the music gets a little more serious. I really started recognizing problems with her right at flip. She has lost a lot of fan leaves due to yellowing,, dark stems and I can tell her branching has suffered because of it. Growth at the bottom looks weak and even wrinkled in some spots. She has burn spots and signs of deficiency galore. But also VERY dark fan leaves. I've just come to the conclusion that flushing was probably my best move. She can still have a week of solid growing. If I can get it corrected now, this plant will still be respectable but the trend is disturbing and alarming to someone who knows how fast they can decline. So in conclusion, things are getting a little hairy. Flowering always brings on a new set of challenges and I'm still learning every single time. Wish me luck this week, I'll need it. 11/6 Updated pic on old friend banana daddy that they shared the veg tent with.

D29. We're at the start of the fifth week of veg, and all is well in the tent. I did some more LST to spread her out as much as possible before she goes into flower. ------------------------------ D31. I'm fairly confident that she is stunted since she is extremely compact and doesn't seem to grow much. She will go into flower any day now, but she is still pretty small. I'm adjusting the LST wires daily and today, I did some minor defoliation by removing a few low branches and leaves. Maybe that will redirect some energy and help her stretch out. ------------------------------ D32. Alright, she is now officially in flower. I was hoping for a few more days in veg, but she wouldn't have it. I brewed up a quick compost tea using oat flour as the food source. Some people claim that that will result in a fungally dominant tea, so I thought I'd try it out. I also added humic acid and a teaspoon of myco because why not? Honestly, I'm not sure it is even possible to create a fungally dominant AACT, as the constant water movement will most likely tear the fungal hyphae apart as they form. In any case, a different food source should promote other bacteria than the molasses I usually use. Diversity is the name of the game in living soil. Well, in life in general. I gave her around 1 liter (5% of container volume) of tea @ pH 6.1. ------------------------------ D35. We're on the last day in the fifth and final week of veg, as she is now in flower. All is well in the tent, and there isn't much to report. One thing I did was buy a mushroom grow kit to keep in the tent. I figured I'd test it out and see how it works. The mushrooms produce CO2 that the plants love, and hopefully, I'll get some tasty Oyster mushrooms to eat — two birds with one stone and all that. ------------------------------

Ended up harvesting 14 1/2 dry off of these five autos we’re all Supposed to be gelato 33 auto but ended up looking and tasting very different Was wondering if I possibly got a mixed bag by mistake from breeder

Semana tranquila, lo único que observo es como algunos de los pistilos o estigmas empiezan a tostarse- Los cogollos siguen engordando. llevo arrastrando de hace un par de semanas algo de sobrefertilizacion , algunas puntas quemaditas y no quiero que vaya a más así que seguiré abonando suavemente sin pasarme con la EC. a una parece afectarle de manera especial la cantidad de luz y muestra albinismo.

LAS BABYS VAN SE VAN ESTIRANDO Y SE EMPIEZAN A FORMAR LOS COGOLLITOS!

All the girls have been placed into their final pots 20L fabric. Really happy with the root structures due to the fabric pots - not one root bound plant and all the roots still searching for space to grow. They have recovered from transplant already and are all growing out and enjoying the root space. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We have lost 1 Kushbreath x faceOff plant (Putins punch seed) The phenotype grew too short and bushy to make it in this SCROG grow - I have moved this plant to my auto tent to grow out and train. Both V2 / V3 are both growing really well and cant say either one is better than the other.

Einige Triebe wurden nun durch reiben und drücken umgeknickt(HST) weil sie aus dem Netz rausgewachsen ist und ich unbedingt das höhenwachstum eindämmen muss, da die Pflanze noch ihren Stretch machen wird und ich sonst keinen Abstand zur Lampe bekomme. In der ersten Woche deutliche Veränderung des Wachstumbildes, die ersten weißen Härchen sind erkennbar. Biobizz Bloom und TopMax werden ab jetzt auch hinzugefügt.

Seeds opened after 24h in a petri dish after which I placed them in coco pellets -> see week 1 👌

Early skunk 2 and 4 stretched a lot this week while early skunk 3 didn't as much. ES 3 development seems to be faster then 2's and 4's however is not gaining as much height and shoot structure as 2&4's. Noticed little burning on ES4 leaves closer to ventilator. La fanta CBD evolved a little this week, noticed by pistils finally developing on a fast rate. 17/10 Fed them with liquid quillaia extract, biosymphony (psb) and little lmx to the water reservoir. Last one in order to slow down algae dev on reservoir.

The Strawberry Banana from Canuk seeds is doing good she is the smallest girl so far an the only one still not topped I don't think I'm going to top her an mite just let her do her Christmas tree thing she would be a little taller but she grew with a curved stock for some reason she's been growing great tho have not had 1 problem with her Ending week 4 of veg this girls is starting to pick up some good pace so she has been topped an has been doing great since she is deff doing great with this cultured biologix nutrients with her big fan leafs soaking in all the light from the medic grow fold 6

Started adding CalMag for first time, used half of dosage. Root is developing well, reached the water.

Won’t let me do harvest for the ultra lemon haze yet but she’s chopped and drying will try to update as harvest when it works

One Love Growers! 🇯🇲✌️ Let's Get This Veg Phase Rolling! 16.11.2025-Our little warriors are officially done messing around—we’re moving into the full vegetative stage! Getting them into the final big living soil pot is like moving them into their permanent home; it’s a big deal. We are transplanting them into soil that was mixed and treated fourteen days before with my own blend of soils, earthworms, springtails, and dried crushed eggshells + 400g of Herbis living soil starter. 24.11.2025- QUICK UPDATE: GROWTH SPURT! The girls clearly love their new home! They've started to accelerate their growth noticeably, which tells me the Living Soil is totally dialed in. Because they are growing so fast, I'm going to increase their watering volume starting in Week 3 to keep up with their demands. It's all up to the soil and worms now. Remember: with Living Soil, we feed the soil, and the soil feeds the plants! Happy soiĺ=Happy plants Fingers crossed for rapid root development! Week 3 of vegetation begins tomorrow, so expect that new photos coming. Peace and Harmony! 💚 Wondrej
