W12.Day.1(77) The captivating journey took an unexpected turn when mold was spotted on two buds, prompting me to opt for an emergency harvest to mitigate further spread 🍂. By skipping both washing and drying (last 24 hours without water) to speed up the harvest, the weight of the large bush, a hefty 2485 grams, included all the water, stems, leaves, and even the bamboo scrog :) Upon thorough examination, no additional signs of mold were detected. I ensured all the buds were dried under the highest airflow possible, effectively minimizing the impact of the mold 🌬️. In response to this challenge, I'm planning to enhance the ventilation system and improve data monitoring within the grow box. These adjustments aim to replicate the success of this growing method while preventing mold in future cycles 🛠️. My heartfelt thanks go out to everyone who has been part of this journey through the diary. Your engagement and encouragement mean the world to me and my plants 🌿. Huge thanks to @AsNoriu, @MiyaguiOkPolilla, @nonick123, @Archie1337, @JuanHaze_Arg, @deFharo, @Plantinator, @GrowerOG, @GrowInSparta, @Lemonhazelover for following my journey and wishing me success 🌟. Your support means the world to me 🙏💚. A special shoutout to @chamomile; I'm gearing up for a strong comeback 💪. Appreciation extends to @SkunkleDamo, @TheUk420Show, @HerbalEdu, and @FNplug6 for their invaluable advice during this critical decision-making process 🙏. W12.Day.7(83) Almost a whole week of drying has passed, and I've managed to remove the excess fan leaves and the less trichome-dense parts of the remaining leaves 🍃✂️. Made a little update to the dryer - added an extra section and now all the cleaned colas with buds are comfortably sitting on the drying racks 🌿🔄. No signs of mold anywhere, which is a huge win 🚫🍄✨. I haven’t separated them from the branches yet; I’m planning the final weighing after another week of drying ⏳🌱. P.S. Dreaming about the yield if I could manage to hold out for two more planned weeks of grow 🌠💭🌳. More smiles, more vibes 🌈😊. W13.Day.3(86) I took one of the ready buds off the drying rack to check it out and study it 🧐. There are lots of clear and white trichomes and hardly any amber ones. The smell reminds me of Mimosa Orange Punch Auto from Barney's Farm 🍊. I think the terpene profile must have come from the Mimosa. It could have used more time to flower and mature, rather than this early finish 🌱. But we work with what we've got and move forward from here. This weight of 3.49 grams will be added to the total tally after the final weighing at the end of the two-week drying period ⚖️. The taste after smoking has a quite strong chemical note. It should diminish after curing. In terms of potency, it's slightly below my previous grow. But again, this is without curing.

Well I was out at the beginning of the week. These things are coming along and will be ready for harvest soon. The branches starting bending over in places but this is okay since it keeps them from being burned by the light. Again humidity is too high but we're keeping the fans going.

🌸 Week 3 Flower – The Jungle Takes Over The girls are now towering at 1.20 m, turning our tent into a proper green jungle. Both phenotypes are thriving with thick stalks, lush foliage, and a dense network of branches promising a spectacular flower set. This week was all about control and balance. ✂️ Defoliation & Growth Management Although these plants have been allowed to grow naturally so far, their explosive stretch meant I had to step in. I performed a strategic defoliation, not because the plants were weak, but to: • Improve airflow through the canopy. • Ensure light reaches lower bud sites. • Slow vertical growth and help prevent them from outgrowing the tent. Even with a high ceiling, there’s still a risk of running out of headroom during the last stretch. Defoliating at this stage also redirects energy to bud formation instead of excessive leaf production. Note: During this process, a few branches were accidentally broken while moving them out for photos. I left this in the report and photos as a learning moment, large plants can be tricky to handle. This may be the last out-of-tent photoshoot before harvest. 🌱 Structure & Bud Development • Both phenotypes are highly branched, with bud sites forming all the way down the stems. • First signs of proper bud stacking are visible, with white pistils everywhere. • Plants look symmetrical, vibrant, and full of energy — a promising start to mid-flower. 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Base nutrients: • Aptus Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L occasionally (soil already contains slow-release pellets) Bloom boosters (Plagron): • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L (multi-action bloom stimulator, PK booster, and terpene enhancer) • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L (amino acid-rich biostimulant, improves aroma & resilience) • Power Buds – 1 ml/L (early flowering booster to promote faster bud set) This combined recipe ensures the plants receive balanced macro and micronutrients while enhancing flower development, resin production, and terpene expression. pH & EC: • Feed solution pH: ~6.0–6.1 • Feed EC: ~1.04 mS/cm (soil EC still at ~2.96 mS/cm, so feed is moderated) 🌡️ Environment • Soil temperature: 24–24.7°C • Air temperature: 29°C • Humidity: 67% • VPD: 1.37 kPa Conditions are slightly warm, but the plants are coping well. ⸻ 📌 Summary Week 3 of flower has been a turning point, from a lush veg canopy to a budding powerhouse. Strategic defoliation will help manage height and airflow, while the combined Aptus + Plagron feeding strategy aims to maximize flower density, aroma, and overall plant health. The structure is impressive, with a sea of potential bud sites that promise a heavy, aromatic harvest. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

We didn't do much, we moved it around to follow the sun during the day, from one window to another. We feared it might be stretching (later we discovered it is not) so we used a pipe cleaner to support it.

Dear Friends ❤️ in this week we topped again and bended this Sleeeeeepy Joe by Anesia Seeds. Also this time it recovered really fast from this stress I missed to give top crop Big one at 14 october, it is important to give 10 days before flowering The last day of this week we switched the light to 12/12 week #5 of vegetation The 240w light is working at 50% power and now it is combined with the 480w quantum board. I consider week 4 the week from 18/10 to 24/10. day to day fert schedule: 📅 18/10 📅 19/10 NEEM OIL 📅 20/10 📅 21/10 Top Veg 3ml/L-Deeper Underground 2ml/L - Green Explosion 2ml/L - big one 2ml/L - PURPINATOR 1,2ml/L 📅 22/10 📅 23/10 📅 24/10 we started a new grow cycle with a lot of AMAAAAAZING genetics. We can't wait to show you our progresses with these little babies. I really want to thank Martin of Anesia Seeds, he helped us with the strain's choiches, so THANK YOU Martin, thank you Anesia seeds. Seeds and merchandising ( my god we love these things ❤️❤️❤️) were sent in a dark discret package, shippin was incredibly fast, now is our mission to achieve the best from these lovely seeds. Germination was incredibly fast, less than 36Hours to make the root sprout on. ABOUT: Sleepy Joe For Sleepy Joe, we took a long time to select an Obama Kush for potency and aroma and then crossed it with our THC bombshell Nova OG. The result is an indica dominant hybrid with outstanding genetic properties in terms of potency, aroma and therapeutic effects. The strain’s unique long-lasting high combines powerful physical effects with a wonderful boost of euphoria and creativity. The narcotic and intense effect surprises even experienced users with a high tolerance and should not be underestimated. Sleepy Joe has a very special cannabinoid profile and an impressively high THC content of up to 34% that can completely overwhelm you. The plants of the variety are bushy, resilient, and reach moderate heights, so they do well indoors and don’t take up too much space. They form countless large flowers with an above-average resin production and an aroma that is potentially addictive. The taste and smell are like fresh strawberries and juicy lemons. Growing Sleepy Joe The strain forms a strong main stem and many side branches that are overloaded with glistening buds. The flowers often get a purple or even almost black color. Sleepy Joe is a high performer both indoors and outdoors, and the strain will delight you as well as us. The bloom time lasts between 8 and 9 weeks and the plants are very well suited for the SOG cultivation or different plant training methods. Therapeutic effects Its excellent therapeutic properties make it a big player in the medical cannabis world. Pain literally melts away, muscles are relaxed and sleep disorders dissolve into deep relaxation and positive feelings.

Day 57 this little lady last weekend showed up with some burning on the leaves but I’m. Not really sure it was an excess of nutrient, signals of a deficiency of K and P are also visible. So I just gave oh controlled water with regulator and enzym+ and some calmag, now everything looks fine and i ‘ m sure I t will be great this week. Tomorrow, feeding day! Day 59 lady si farting up every day, I’ve been feeding her the last two days. The yellow on the leaves is just because of a water deficiency from the last week, I wanted my lady to absorb everything I gave. On day 57 I gave 1 lt but it was too dry, so on day 58 I gave her another lt and she took it all with PH 6,2 and PPM 1000z I think I’ve got 20/25 day max left so this will be the last week of fertilising from Day 70 I’ll start mi flush. Day 62 today feeding day I finally get my p-boost and k-boost from aptus. She drunk 1 lt with ph 6,1 and ppm 1090 Let’s see🌱🌱🌱🔥🔥

📅 Week 3 – Day 21 BOX: 50x50 – 100W lamp 🌞 Temp: 27°C 💦 RH: 70–72% 💥 PPFD: 400–650 µmol/m²/s 🌬️ VPD: ~1 – 1.1 kPa This is my first time planting directly into the final pot, and the difference is clear – I definitely saved a few days of growth. Watering volume is increasing steadily: started at ~400 ml and today I went for the first runoff with about 800 ml. EC stays on the lower side, around 0.6. They’re also getting Power Roots and enzymes. DOKI got her first LST today. Stay tuned – and keep growing 🌱

I will be careful every time I encounter an insect problem and use an insecticide, I will eventually get rid of it with a water care method
