Finally managed to get some money & bought some real lights (Added a 500W Hps lamp). Also bought aluminum and made a tent . I Lost track of the plants names . The plants seems to be growing for the first time when i added the extra lamp.

Day 64 - I've been patiently waiting for the time to come, and it's finally here! Changed the lights over to 12/12 to send the tent into flower. Current light settings R99 W99 B50 as suggested by California Lightworks. I did a full reservoir change - switching over to bloom nutes. I also added some Si28 and P31 Microbes to the reservoir to test out this new product that I was fortunate enough to receive samples of. I've seen the results of others with crazy booming root growth.... Let's see what happens! Day 65 - I swear, it's like she's been waiting for me to flip the light cycle. I kicked one plant out of the tent so now there's even more room for improved air circulation and light distribution. This plant is a serious beast! Day 67/ Day 3 of Flower - Last massive round of defoliation before I sit back and let her do her thang. ✌️

Haze is growing like a haze too big lol had to do some supercropping to the main cola was stretching too much for my liking she's bushy finally showing some nice pistols did a big defoliation on the 3 sativa's the haze has got nice node spacing so far and scent is really strong now hash kind of smell .kicked the nutes in full swing added some terpinator,beasty bloom and tiger bloom to kick start the flowering process a bit more and get some beasty buds and using some leftover nutes lol hope it goes well and they handle it Will get some better pics soon ... installed scrogg net to bring down to grapegum level she's throwing pistols out every where hope scrogging this late won't have an effect thanks happy growing guys

Week 5 had been amazing just that this week we had 3 days of rain which was great for the plant. I gave her some Tea again except that this time I use the rain water I collected. Which was ph at 6.3 and the run of off was ph at 6.8 The plant is around 10 inches now and I am starting to notice some red/purple lines on the stems. The smell is weak but it is still a little early to judge. I would really like some feedback you guys.

ugh just hate myself right now lol. I feel like it would have done AMAZING had I flipped sooner and SCROG way better. I was timid and had a lot of personal obligations preventing me from staying in the garden as much as I would have liked. Its a grower! and stretches so much in early flower. Stay on top of her but I think she may make some amazing bud based on what I did have drying recently. I wish I didnt mess up the timing but I just couldnt have the second wave be held up by these mistakes and felt it best to let it go

420FASTBUDS FBT2101 WEEK 11 Getting close for this one. Probably another week is all and I really couldn't be happier. Frosty as can be and smells like a candy store. Flowers are dense as I'd like but definitely from the looks will need a grinder to make life easier when breaking this one up. Happy Growing

Lots of fattening up this week. This girl is looking fat for such a small plant. Gonna ease up on nutes this next week, and hopefully there'll be a harvest next week!!! Issues with the leaves seems to have stopped after adjusting pH and adding some calmag.

Week 1 bloom Everything stretched a lot this week. I’m not sure why. My lights are powerful I’m feeding by the green planet chart. So lots of nutes. Hopefully they slow down or I’m going to run out of room. At the end of this week I did another lollipop and small defoliation. The canopy was super dense. If you got this far hit the like button and give me some validation lol.

Mango Kush – Week 1 Flower (Week 5 from Seed) Stretch, sibling rivalry, and fine-tuning the environment Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush – Pheno #1 & Pheno #2 Light Systems: • ThinkGrow Model One LED (main canopy) • ThinkGrow ICL300 (inner canopy lighting) • Black Series 600W LED (shared space) Ecosystem: TrolMaster-controlled, partially hand-watered ⸻ 🌸 First Week Flower – Stretch Mode Engaged We’ve flipped the Mango Kush girls into flower, and while there are still no visible pre-flowers yet, the stretch has begun. • Pheno #1: Already tall and well-structured, pushing into her 8th–9th node with strong lateral branching. • Pheno #2: Started later, but is rapidly catching up—shorter internodes, lush leaves, and a determination to match her sister in size before flowers set. 📸 Both got a full studio photo session this week—looking flawless and healthy from every angle. ⸻ 🌡️ Current Conditions • Room Temp: 31°C (a bit high, AC incoming) • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • PPFD: 766 µmol/m²/s • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Soil Temp: 25.6°C • Watering: Daily (when soil dries to ~25% moisture) ⸻ ⚠️ High Temperature Talk – Risks & Rewards Risks: • Higher temps speed up transpiration, meaning the plants take in water and nutrients faster, which can cause imbalances if not monitored. • Combined with high VPD, temps can push plants close to stress thresholds. Benefits (if managed well): • Boosted metabolism → faster stretch and branch growth before bud set. • With CO₂ at ~632 ppm, plants can tolerate slightly warmer temps without losing photosynthetic efficiency. 💡 Plan: An AC unit is on the way to lock temps into the sweet flower range of 26–28°C. ⸻ 💧 Why Daily Watering Works Here In these conditions, the Mango Kush girls are drinking daily. Letting the medium dry to about 25% before rewatering helps: 1. Prevent overwatering – Roots get oxygen between feedings. 2. Keep nutrients stable – Avoiding EC spikes/drops. 3. Match plant demand – Giving them exactly what they’re ready to drink. Nutrients remain tat Aptus Holland recipe, now for flower, just with slightly increased volume to match their thirst. ⸻ 🌱 Sibling Rivalry – Pheno #2’s Big Push Pheno #2 may have started late, but she’s been stacking nodes and leaves like she’s got something to prove. At this rate, she might hit flower at nearly the same size as her big sister. This will be a fun side-by-side to watch—same genetics, different timelines. ⸻ 💡 Inner Canopy Lighting – ThinkGrow ICL300 We’ve installed the ICL300, a bar-style LED designed to sit inside the canopy. Why it matters for Mango Kush: • Better Lower Buds – More intensity to shaded sites → denser flowers. • Even Growth – Less height difference between top and bottom buds. • Efficient Canopy Use – Every branch gets a fair shot at the light. In multi-strain grows, inner canopy lights help prevent the smaller plants from being overshadowed, literally. ⸻ 🔮 What’s Next • AC arrives → temps stabilize → optimal VPD range. • Expect pre-flower pistils to appear in the next 7–10 days. • Watch Pheno #2’s progress—will she match #1 before the stretch is over? • Continue using ICL300 to fill out the lower canopy for more even bud development. ⸻ 📣 Thank you for following the Mango Kush journey!
