Dankie Run #1 – Fruity Syndicate 🍓

DankieDoodle 🌿 DankieDoodle 🗓️ Week 2 (16.11.2025) 🗓️ Vegetative Day 1 The girls officially enter the vegetative phase today! All three seedlings Pure Runtz, Strawberry Poprocks, and Radical Juice look healthy and vibrant. Cotyledons are still green and open, and the first set of serrated leaves has expanded nicely. You can already see that the stems are starting to thicken a bit, and the leaf color is a clean, bright green perfect for this stage. No stretch issues, meaning the light distance and PPFD (~300 µmol/m²/s) are spot on. 💧 Watering: Each pot received 250 ml of water evenly distributed over the surface. No additives this time just clean water to activate the microbes and keep the substrate alive. The mix still feels perfectly balanced: airy, moist but not wet. So far everything feels in sync calm start, no stress, and a nice steady rhythm. The real growth phase begins now 🌿✨ 🗓️ Vegetative Day 2 Today was a calm day with no watering the substrate still felt evenly moist. 🗓️ Vegetative Day 3 💧 Watering: Today each plant received ~500 ml of water according to our BioTabs schedule: RootJuice (1 ml/L) + Heaven (2 ml/L) + Epsom (0.15 g/L). No runoff, just slow and steady absorption to keep the microbial zone active. 💡 Lighting Update: Light intensity increased from 300 → 350 µmol/m²/s (@ 50 % power) on the Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO. This should help the young plants strengthen their stems and boost early leaf development without causing stress. A smooth and balanced start to early veg the rhythm feels right. 🌿 🗓️ Vegetative Day 4 Nothing special today the plants continue to look stable and symmetrical. No watering needed as the substrate still feels evenly moist. Leaves remain flat and vibrant green with no stretch or stress. 🗓️ Vegetative Day 5 💧 Watering: Today each plant received ~500 ml of water according to our BioTabs schedule: RootJuice (1 ml/L) + Heaven (2 ml/L) + Epsom (0.15 g/L). No runoff, just slow and steady absorption to keep the microbial zone active. 🗓️ Vegetative Day 6 No visible changes today just slow and consistent progress. All three (Pure Runtz, Strawberry Poprocks, Radical Juice) maintain good color and structure. Roots are clearly expanding below the surface exactly the calm phase before the next growth burst. 🗓️ Vegetative Day 7 A calm day for all three girls — no action today. Just maintaining stable conditions and letting the roots keep expanding. All steady still focusing on root growth and internode development 🌱

DankieDoodle 📅 Vegetative – Week 2, Day 1 Today all three plants Pure Runtz, Strawberry Poprocks, and Radical Juice were watered evenly with 1 L each, following the standard feeding plan. The substrate absorbed it beautifully, no runoff, nice distribution through the top layer. 💧 Water Mix: RootJuice 1 ml/L Biobizz Heaven 2 ml/L Epsom Salt 0.15 g/L pH natural (7.4 tap water) The plants look strong, bright green, and symmetrical, great early veg development! 💡 Environment: Temp: 25–26 °C RH: 70 % PPFD: ~400 µmol/m²/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 50 %) Cycle: 18/6 The girls are now entering active growth next few days should bring more leaf expansion and visible progress 🌿✨ 📅 Vegetative – Week 2, Day 2 – 5 Nothing major this time the plants are in full establishment mode. After the last watering (1 L per pot following the nutrient schedule), the substrate still feels evenly moist and perfectly aerated. All three ladies — Pure Runtz (T.H.Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds), and Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) show steady, symmetrical growth with no stress signs. Leaves are broad, flat, and rich green, with short internodes exactly what you want for a dense SCROG canopy later. A calm mid-week everything running smooth and balanced

DankieDoodle DankieDoodle 📅 Vegetative – Week 3, Days 1–7 ✂️ Topping & Transition Week This week marked an important step in shaping the structure all three girls, Pure Runtz (T.H.Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds), and Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds), were topped cleanly above the 4th node to begin forming their SCROG-ready main frame. All cuts healed fast, and the plants responded perfectly zero stress, vibrant color, and compact, even growth. 💧 Watering & Feeding Day 1: Each plant received 1 L of water, following the regular schedule. Absorption was perfect no runoff, great structure, and a healthy, active root zone. Water Mix: RootJuice — 1 ml/L Biobizz Heaven — 2 ml/L Epsom Salt — 0.15 g/L pH — natural (7.4 tap water) 💡 Environment: Temp: 25 °C RH: 68–70 % PPFD: ~550 µmol/m²/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 50 %) Cycle: 18/6 VPD: ~1.0 kPa 🌿 Midweek (Day 4) All three plants were watered again with 1 L each, using the same nutrient mix. Substrate dried evenly, roots are expanding rapidly, and all three show symmetrical, low-stress growth. 🌞 End of Week (Day 7) By Day 7, the pots were drying out completely after only two days a clear sign of a well-developed root system. The Autopots were activated today to let the plants get used to consistent moisture levels before the next growth stage. 🚀 Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) Note: Between Day 5 and Day 7, she showed explosive vertical growth, pushing herself right into 650 µmol/m²/s PPFD resulting in slight tip burn on the top leaves. Nothing serious, just a light stress mark from her incredible vigor. The light intensity has since been adjusted down to 550 µmol/m²/s for all plants to maintain perfect balance and canopy health. 🌱 Summary: Structure after topping looks perfect four strong mains on each. All three cultivars are balanced, compact, and healthy. Radical Juice shows top-tier growth potential; all plants are ready for the next phase. A clean and productive week steady growth, solid recovery, and the Autopots now active to keep the rhythm flowing. Next step: another topping and the first round of gentle LST to open up the canopy evenly 🌿✨

DankieDoodle 🌱 DankieDoodle 📅 Vegetative – Week 4 Summary ✂️ Structure, Training & Growth Week 4 focused on shaping the canopy and building a strong base for the upcoming SCROG setup. After recovering beautifully from the first topping, all three ladies Pure Runtz (T.H.Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds), and Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) developed healthy, symmetrical new growth and were ready for more structure work. Each plant was topped again early this week to further divide the main branches and widen the canopy. Right after topping, gentle LST (low stress training) was applied to guide the new shoots outward, creating space and light penetration through the center. The result is a clean, balanced structure with eight strong tops per plant and compact internodes, setting up perfectly for SCROG training. 🌿✨ 💧 Watering & Autopot Activation The Autopot system is now fully active and running smoothly. At the start of the week, the reservoir was filled with 10 L of water mixed only with Epsom Salt (0.15 g/L) to provide magnesium and sulfur support. After just one day, the entire 10 L was gone, showing that the root systems are now fully developed and pulling water efficiently from the trays. A new 10 L refill was added with the same Epsom mix to maintain stable moisture and mineral levels. 💧 Water Mix (Autopot Tank): Epsom Salt: 0.15 g/L pH: Natural (7.4 tap water) The substrate remains evenly moist without runoff, and the oxygen levels in the root zone are ideal, keeping the plants in perfect hydration balance. 💡 Environment Temp: 25 °C RH: 68 % VPD: ~1.0 kPa PPFD: 550 µmol/m²/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 50 %) Cycle: 18/6 The environment stayed very stable throughout the week. VPD around 1.0 kPa keeps nutrient uptake active and ensures smooth transpiration, which also explains the strong increase in water consumption. 🔆 Light Adjustment Note By Day 7, Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) showed the most aggressive stretch, growing quickly from Day 5 to Day 7. This caused her to reach around 650 µmol/m²/s PPFD, which resulted in slightly burnt tips on a few top leaves. No real issue, just a small sign of fast metabolism and high light intensity. The light was slightly dimmed afterward, and all plants now sit at ~550 µmol/m²/s, the perfect level for steady vegetative growth. 🌞 🌿 Overall Plant Health Pure Runtz – Compact, balanced structure with beautiful symmetry. Strawberry Poprocks – Tight internodes and rich green leaves, excellent training response. Radical Juice – Fastest grower with strong vigor and a little light sensitivity but quick recovery. All plants show deep green color, lush growth, and high energy. The slight tip color on some leaves indicates perfect nutrient uptake and active growth, nothing concerning. 🧠 Notes & Next Steps The canopy structure is now defined and expanding evenly. Week 5 will focus on vertical recovery and canopy leveling under the SCROG net. Once the new shoots gain height, gentle tucking under the net will begin. Water uptake and VPD will continue to be closely monitored as the plants move into peak vegetative metabolism. 🌈 Summary Week 4 was a key turning point in this run. The root zones are strong, the Autopot system is working perfectly, and the structural training has created a uniform canopy base. The balance between light, airflow, and moisture feels just right, and the plants are responding beautifully. From here on, it’s all about refining the shape, guiding the tops into the net, and preparing for the flowering transition. A clean, powerful, and perfectly balanced Veg Week 🌱💪

DankieDoodle 📘 GrowDiaries – Vegetative Week 5 DankieDoodle | Veg Week 5 – Structure, Recovery & Canopy Work 🌿 Week 5 was all about shaping structure and preparing the girls for their final training before the flip. All three Pure Runtz (T.H.Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds), and Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) have responded beautifully after their second topping last week. Strong recovery, vigorous new growth, and a healthy canopy across all plants. 🌱 Training & Canopy Development Early in the week, the girls continued their steady vertical growth, filling out evenly from each topped node. Midweek, a full LST session and defoliation (Day 6) were done to open up the lower canopy and promote even light distribution. Lower fan leaves and small inner growth were removed. Each main branch was gently tied down to spread the canopy wider. The internal airflow has improved significantly, and the plants are responding with tight, symmetrical node spacing. By the end of the week, the structure was completely reset flat, wide, and balanced perfect for the SCROG net setup in Week 6. 💧 Autopot / Watering The Autopot system continues to perform perfectly. The girls are drinking consistently and efficiently the 10L tank is emptied roughly every 24–36 hours, showing strong root zone activity. Water mix (Tank): Epsom Salt: 0.15 g/L pH: natural (~7.4 tap water) No additional nutrients this week BioTabs are still releasing evenly, and the substrate moisture is stable throughout. No runoff, no salt buildup, and excellent substrate texture everything is in biological balance. 💡 Environment Temp: 25 °C RH: 68 % PPFD: ~550 µmol/m²/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 50 %) Cycle: 18/6 VPD: ~1.0 kPa The light intensity was maintained at 550 µmol/m²/s to avoid tip stress. The canopy is now even, lush, and vibrant all leaves showing healthy turgor and consistent growth rhythm. 🌿 Observations After the LST and defoliation, the plants bounced back within 24 hours. The stems are thickening rapidly, showing perfect nutrient flow. The canopy is now spreading evenly across the entire tent, ready for the SCROG net next week. Each plant is building a strong, wide frame that will easily support multiple main colas after the flip. 🔜 Next Steps Continue gentle LST adjustments over the next few days. Install the SCROG net at the end of Week 5 / start of Week 6. Maintain the same Epsom-only tank mix until the flip. Prepare for light defoliation and canopy shaping before 12/12 transition. 🌟 Summary Week 5 was a major turning point structure, airflow, and root uptake are all dialed in. The plants are healthy, symmetrical, and ready for the SCROG and the stretch ahead. Strong training week calm growth, perfect recovery, and no signs of stress 💪🌿

DankieDoodle 📘 DankieDoodle | Vegetative Week 6 – The Net Fills Up 🌿 The girls have officially entered their last week of vegetative growth, and everything is looking dialed in and balanced. After the structural training and cleanup from Week 5, this week was focused on canopy management and SCROG work. All three — Pure Runtz (T.H.Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds), and Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) — have recovered perfectly after the last LST and defoliation. Their structure is strong, branches are thick, and the canopy is spreading beautifully across the net. 🌱 Training & Canopy Progress At the beginning of the week (Day 3), the SCROG net was installed, and the tops were gently guided into the first layer. Each branch was tucked and trained horizontally to encourage an even canopy and promote maximum light exposure to all bud sites. After that, the plants were left to grow naturally, adjusting themselves upward through the screen. Daily small adjustments helped the tops find their place, and by the end of the week the net is already about 70% filled — exactly the timing planned before switching to flower. The lower sections are nicely cleaned and airflow is excellent beneath the canopy. The plants are showing a perfect pre-flip posture: flat, healthy, and balanced. 💧 Autopot / Feeding The Autopot system continues to run flawlessly. Water uptake remains consistent, around 10L every 24–36 hours, showing excellent root zone activity. Tank mix (Week 6): Epsom Salt 0.15 g/L pH natural (~7.3 tap water) No additional feeding — the BioTabs are still active, and the substrate remains biologically balanced. The moisture level across the pots is even, with no dry or oversaturated zones. Roots are working in perfect sync with the system. 💡 Environment Temp: 25 °C RH: 65–68 % PPFD: ~550 µmol/m²/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 50 %) Cycle: 18/6 VPD: ~1.0 kPa Everything in the tent is stable, with strong air circulation under and above the canopy. Leaves are showing a deep, vibrant green — no signs of deficiency or stress. 🌿 Observations Canopy height and density are uniform across all plants. New tops are healthy and stacking tightly, ideal for transitioning into flower. The structure below the net is clean and open, ensuring energy is focused on top growth. By the end of the week, all plants are filling their space evenly and are fully ready for the 12/12 flip. 🌟 Summary Week 6 marked the final stage of vegetative shaping. The SCROG net is filling up beautifully, the root zone is thriving, and the plants are showing perfect pre-flower energy. Next week, the lights will switch to 12/12 to start the flowering stretch — everything is ready for the transition ahead 🌸✨

DankieDoodle Week 7 – Day 1 | Final Veg Day & Flip to Flower 🌸 The last day of veg marks the perfect time to switch to flower. All three girls – Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds), Zombie Bride (Ripper Seeds), and Runtz Mintz (T.H.Seeds) – have developed strong and healthy structures with thick stems and symmetrical canopies. The SCROG net is now around 85–90% filled, and the plants are showing perfect balance between growth and stability. Over the past few days, I removed a few large fan leaves that were shading the lower growth and cleaned up the lower 10–15 cm of each plant for better airflow and energy distribution. They’ve responded perfectly and are now ready for the 12/12 transition. 💧 Water (Autopot Tank): Epsom Salt – 0.15 g/L pH natural (7.4 tap water) The Autopot system is running smoothly, with steady uptake and ideal substrate moisture. 💡 Environment: Temp: 25.5 °C RH: 68 % VPD: ~0.95 kPa PPFD: ~550 µmol/m²/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 60%) Cycle: 18/6 → switching to 12/12 today Everything looks balanced and full of energy as the girls move into their flowering phase. The canopy is even, the color is rich, and airflow is strong beneath the leaves. From now on, the focus shifts to stretch management and canopy control under the net.
