Hey hey Growmies! Smooth sailing for this little Samsquanch OG, in the begnning of the week I 3D printed a Hydro Halo to keep this girl moist as she sends out roots. A couple of days later, roots had shot out of every direction so I removed the halo and started LST and leaf tucking. This is where we start seeing growth! my first Mephisto Auto, Im excited That's it for now Growmies, I hope you'll follow along with these great artisinal genetics! Stay safe and keep Growing. I'm still looking for decent Black Diamond OG seeds, or something very close to it genetically, I'm also looking to add a second tent/light to my grow space, if you can score me a great deal or sponsorship, hit me up.

🌸 Lava Cake – Week 7 (3rd Week Flower) | Blossoms Rising The third week of flower has arrived, and our Lava Cakes are stepping fully into bloom. Both girls are looking beautiful, symmetrical, and strong, with thick white pistils reaching out and leaves still praying to the light. Their similarity in structure makes this run feel almost like growing twins, each reflecting the same genetics, each glowing with energy. ⸻ 🔙 Looking Back – The Road Here From seeds sprouting in soft cups → to vigorous veg under Future of Grow and ThinkGrow LEDs → to the careful transplant and expansion in the 8x8 ecosystem, every stage has been about setting a solid foundation. • Feeding: Aptus core line + Plagron boosters • Training: Gentle guiding, letting them branch freely • Environment: Tuned by the TrolMaster brain, with sensors guiding irrigation and VPD All of this has brought us here: lush plants in early bloom, no signs of stress, and a canopy built for flower stacking. ⸻ 🍽️ Current Recipe – Staying Steady This week, we keep the same feed — consistency is key as the flowers set. Per L Water: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.5 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml With the Aptus All-in-One Liquid still paused, the soil’s embedded nutrition + pellets are helping balance things out while these bloom boosters do the heavy lifting. ⸻ 🌡️ Room & Rhythm • Temps: ~31–34°C (still awaiting the AC unit for stabilization) • Humidity: ~60%, bringing VPD near 1.9 kPa • Watering: Daily — plants are drinking heavily, irrigated once substrate moisture falls near 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS substrate sensor + Tent-X keep us informed on EC, moisture, and temps directly in-soil Even with warm conditions, the Lava Cakes are thriving, drinking more, praying more, and pushing out flowers with confidence. ⸻ 🌸 Week 3 Flower – What We See • White Hairs: Thick, long, and vibrant, covering the tops like cotton clouds. • Flower Formation: Calyxes stacking, pistils reaching — no signs of hesitation. • Leaf Posture: Still upright, showing photosynthesis and metabolism are strong. • Uniformity: Both plants showing the same pace and morphology, a sign of stable genetics and consistent environment. ⸻ 🔮 Looking Ahead – What to Expect / Not to Expect ✅ Expect: • Rapid stacking in the next 2 weeks — buds will start to swell noticeably. • Aroma development — sweet Lava Cake terpenes may start teasing the air soon. • Nutrient demands rising steadily as flowers form. ❌ Not to expect: • Big trichome coverage just yet — resin production typically comes later. • A slowdown — stretch is nearly over, but flower development is just beginning. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thoughts The Lava Cakes are shining this week. Both are aligned in their growth, both are drinking and feeding with rhythm, and both are showing that the careful setup, from lights to irrigation to sensors, is paying off. Week 3 of flower is a promise — not yet the harvest, but the first real glimpse of what’s coming. Thick pistils today, heavy buds tomorrow. With consistency in feeding, environment, and care, these girls are well on their way to becoming the stars of the room. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

12/16 - Howdy there, growers. Here we are at the start of week 11 for this lady. Day 77 from seed. She still have a little ways to go, but she is coming along quite nicely. Buds are stacked and rock hard and getting frostier by the day. I'm trying not to rush this one. I removed the Pro-TeKt from her regimen as she isn't growing anymore. I switched her feed over to ~1.0ec (500ppm) to taper her down during her last two weeks. I am also going to taper the lighting schedule down as we approach chop on her once her sister is no longer in the tent. Thanks for checking out the garden, and, as always, Happy Growing!

Special Christmas Stress would be last weeks summary. Still trying to figure out what the hell is happening to my plants. As there are some major problems appearing on one of them and symptoms on all of them. It looked like there were too much nutes so I tried to flush them out with water. Still the problem went on. Then I started to add calmag since 2 plants went too white. Which appearently is iron defficiency. After 4 days I’m starting to add full nutes but now I’m not regulating ph but leaving it for 7.9 since my runoff water is about 5.8 and probably locking out K N and P. Will see how this will roll out. Also made a simple DIY scrog net for the tallest plant. And ordered microscope.

Still taking about 3-4 days to dry out. Most likely due to my lack of adding extra perlite when starting. I think this is causing some pretty big fluctuations in humidity. Going to get a dehumidifier this week with a controller to try and stabilize the grow tent and possibly dry the smart pots faster. Im watering 2 times between each feeding, trying to take it slow with nutes to ensure no issues during flower. All in all I'm feeling pretty good about the progress, as I'm really starting to see the buds coming in and growing in size.

The temps are higher now because of the house being around 77 degrees. The humidity is staying low. Wondering if I should start flushing to start getting ready for harvest.

We are coming close to harvest! I’m going to start flushing her starting today for about 4-5 days (possibly less depending on how fast she takes up plain water). Then chop her down beginning of next week! 12/28/20, she came down today! Trimmed up the fan leaves and hung her to dry. Will update with a harvest post once she finishes drying and I get ready to jar her!!! Stay tuned folks! She smells like sweet strawberries. Let’s hope I can keep those terps during the dry and cure!!!

And here we must bow to the new and undisputed princess of the garden. The Pineapple express thanks to a well-chosen decision that we want to recommend to everyone has become very big and beautiful. In practice, we only made one topping at the beginning, always leave two side branches in the internode below and in the center two fantastic branched main colas have grown and the plant is around one and a half meters a real beast to be an automatic.
