This was my first grow and I did a bunch of research but I mostly figured it out as I went and I really enjoyed this strain. It was very resistant and took about 90-92 days from germination to harvest. The strain seemed to bounce back extremely well even after a heavy trimming. Did not really run into any health issues with the strain other than what I diagnosed as Leaf Septoria which is caused from to much humidity and not enough circulation. But overall will grow again and was very accurately advertised by Canuk Seeds. Ended up with 256grams from this grow which I was pleasantly surprised with. Saved all the shake and made Cannabutter and Bubble Hash. Both turned out okay but with room for improvement in the future.

To me it looks like ready for harvest even thow I still have new pistils on main cola. I will flush one last time today. I will let the earth dry out and as soon as the leaves start to drop I will put into darkness for 48 hours and harvest. I think its good to give the plant a more natural rhythm as soon as you start flushing at least I have the feeling that it smells stronger now.

На етой неделе я сделал ошибку, растение стояло без воды 3 дня. Автоцветы получили стрес, листья начали желтеть и показывать пятна на листьях. Надеюсь не много потеряю в качестве урожая из за этой ошибки.

Week 8 – Stabilization & Transition to Flowering 🌸 This week marked a real turning point: after last week’s heavy intervention, the plant finally regained its balance and clearly showed that it was ready to move forward again. No stress signs, no abnormalities — everything is back to normal. The substrate reset did exactly what it needed to. ⸻ 💧 Light Watering – Pure Water pH 6.2 To let the root zone fully stabilize, you chose the best possible approach: ✔️ only pH-adjusted water at 6.2 ✔️ no nutrients added This allowed the plant to: • maintain a stable root environment • avoid any risk of a new salt buildup • use the remaining nutrients in the substrate • recover natural and progressive nutrient uptake The behavior of the substrate and the post-flush reaction confirm that balance has been fully restored. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Status – Everything Is OK The signals are very positive: ✔️ leaves opening nicely ✔️ naturally strong posture ✔️ healthy, uniform color ✔️ growth reactivated smoothly The plant is operating at full metabolic capacity with no remaining stress. It was clearly ready for the next step. ⸻ 🌸 Switch to Flowering – Smooth Transition With a stable, balanced, and vigorous plant, the transition was made with confidence: 👉 Official switch to 12/12 this week. Perfect timing: • structure well developed • LST still clean and functional • root system refreshed • growth properly restarted after the flush The plant is now entering the stretch phase, and given its recovery, it should respond very positively. ⸻ 🔮 Next Steps In the coming days: • keep watering lightly • reintroduce nutrients gradually at the next watering • watch for the first pistils • let the stretch unfold naturally Flowering is starting on a clean, healthy foundation — exactly what you want for strong bud development. ⸻ ✅ Conclusion – Calm Week, Successful Transition After a difficult Week 7 but a perfectly executed rescue, Week 8 shows that everything is back under control: • the plant is 100% recovered • no signs of stress • watering with pH 6.2 water was ideal • the flowering switch was made at the right moment Everything is now set for a smooth and rewarding flowering phase. 🌱✨

Reviewing the plants i noted some small dots on the leaves which looked like typical bites from mites, so i sprayed some spidermite and we placed around 6 spical ulti-mite bags to prevent any further damage, lets hope it dont get worse but i think I've detected them just on time 😁 For the rest the plants are looking good, the buds are getting bigger and more thc is being produced 😁 we still have around 4 weeks to go 😅

Week 7 Flower Report – The Masterpiece Garden Unfolds 🌱 Introduction Welcome back to the most thrilling chapter of our journey yet! Week 7 of flower is here, and the garden has transformed into a paradise of unique beauty and diversity. Every plant has its own personality, showcasing the results of all the hard work, dedication, and love poured into this run. Let’s dive into the details and celebrate these girls like never before—because they deserve it! 🌸 Plant-by-Plant Breakdown Papaya Zoap The rebel queen of the garden, aiming for the stars with her towering structure. Her dense, frosty white nugs sparkle like diamonds, and her leaves are fading to a stunning yellow hue—a clear sign she’s ready to shine. Her aroma is captivating, leaving no doubt she’s going to be a showstopper. Gorilla Melon Standing tall as the second in command, this beauty is all strength and vigor. Her vibrant green foliage cradles thick, frosty buds that exude a fragrance worthy of her name. A true contender for the title of MVP. RS11 This one’s a frost factory! Long, elegant buds dripping in trichomes, with leaves gracefully fading to yellow as she transitions toward the finish line. Her balanced stature and impeccable structure make her a dream to cultivate. Green Papaya The frostiest of them all, her sugar leaves are curling under the weight of so much resin. Every glance reveals a shimmering coat of trichomes that’s hard to believe. If frost were a competition, she’d already have the gold medal! Mandarin Squeeze Dark and mysterious, this beauty stands out with her rich, deep green tones and impressively dense buds. Her flowers feel like rocks, and her aroma hints at a citrusy explosion waiting to happen. Punch Pie What can we say about this heavyweight? Her large, dense buds are jaw-dropping, and her presence in the tent is commanding. She’s proving to be a genetic masterpiece, delivering beyond expectations. 🌞 Environmental Mastery This week, we’ve begun the slow decline of PPFD to 750, keeping reds and UVs strong while easing back on whites—a calculated move to guide these girls into the final stages. The room’s stats speak volumes: • Temps: 27.8°C with RH at 64.8%. • CO2: 800 ppm for consistent growth energy. • Reservoir: PH 6.16, TDS 791, temp 21°C. • Soil Stats: TDS 669, temp 22°C. Even the fun facts are worth noting: leaf temps are ranging between 26.6°C and 24.2°C, while the LED bars are holding steady at 38°C, and the ICL-300 at 35.6°C. Aero Fan at 23°C and the filter output at 24.7°C highlight the precision and control in this room, all thanks to the incredible TrolMaster ecosystem. 💧 Feeding and Nutrient Update Our transition from organic minerals to a solo mineral approach has been a game-changer. These girls are thriving! Here’s the recipe this week: • System Clean: 0.25 ml/L. • RO Water Conditioner: 0.8 ml/L. • All-in-One Liquid: 1.75 ml/L. • K-Boost: 0.5 ml/L. • Regulator: 0.15 ml/L. This blend is bringing out the best in each plant, delivering unparalleled frost, density, and aroma. The stability of the pH, thanks to minerals, has made life simpler while pushing the plants toward peak performance. 🌟 Reflecting on Progress It’s a joy to walk into this room and witness the results of months of effort. Each plant is delivering on its promise, and the smells, colors, and trichome production are truly next-level. The journey has been demanding, but the rewards are sweeter than ever.

I apologize upfront for all the photos. It was hard to pick which ones to upload, so I picked a good variety. There is gonna be between 4-6 pounds once dried/cured. These were all super dense and very little larf. This was a higher temp/higher humidity run with lots of co2 and they blew up big. It’s been a minute since I’ve grown a cola or 2 that were bigger than my arm…this time there was dozens of them. Each plant was only topped one time. The temps were usually mid 80’s and humidity in the mid 60’s during flower. This might seem high to some, but learning to apply VPD to a grow should not be trial and error, in other words, this was intentional. It’s not risky either. During the first 6 to 7 weeks of flower it is very important to not let your night time temps to go below 75 degrees. POWDERY MILDEW=LOW TEMPS AND HIGH HUMIDITY. Take one of these away and there will not be any powdery mildew! Do not let your temps go below 75! The last 2 weeks I dropped the humidity to 40% and my night temps to mid 60’s for resin production. A couple of thing one should have to create large buds is a temperature gun(for leaf temp), a par meter and co2. Keep the stomata open and feed lots of co2=huge buds. Learn about VPD and not just a quick google search! When it’s dry and cured I’ll be back for an update on weight, taste and effects. Currently the plants are drying in the room at 60 degrees and 60% humidity until I can get in there to trim them. Might be 2-3 weeks. Thanks again for all the likes and comments!

🌸 Week 7 Flower – Crystals, Aromas & Monster Buds Welcome, friends, to the final pre-harvest chapter for our Mango Kush sisters. Week 7 Flower is where everything comes together: weight, density, aroma, and frost. And let me tell you — these girls are absolute monsters. ⸻ 🌱 The State of the Sisters • Pheno #1 – The trailblazer. Her colas are enormous, dense, and sparkling like snowy peaks under the lights. The macro shots reveal a glittering layer of trichomes, covering buds, sugar leaves, and even little fan leaves near the canopy. She’s showing phenomenal resin production, and her pistils are thick and curling. • Pheno #2 – The younger sister, but catching up fast. Her buds are dense and sticky, the frost is appearing more heavily, and every macro shot reveals the same dazzling crystal coverage. She’s slightly behind Pheno #1 in maturity, but don’t be fooled — she’s a true powerhouse in her own right. The smell in the room is so strong that if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be calling the fire department thinking someone baked 100 mango pies at once! 😅 I mean the frost on these buds? Looks like Mother Nature had a snow day in the grow tent — pure white crystals everywhere, like the plants are wearing winter coats in July! ❄️ ⸻ 🔬 Trichome Watch – Macro Details Week 7 is all about trichomes. Here’s what we’re seeing and monitoring: • Clear trichomes: Still present, mainly on the lower bud sites, indicating some time left before peak potency. • Cloudy/milky trichomes: The majority of bud surfaces are now showing full milkiness, a sign of peak THC potential. • Amber trichomes: Small percentages on the tips of pistils — this is the first sign of cannabinol conversion, giving the slightly more sedative effect. 🌱 Educational takeaway: Trichome inspection is the golden key to deciding harvest timing. Macro photography helps us see nuances invisible to the naked eye. We’re aiming for a balance: mostly milky with a touch of amber for that perfect Mango Kush high. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition At this stage, feeding is minimal but precise — we don’t want to push excess nutrients, only support the plant as it finalizes resin and bud density: • Just water lol the rest they can find in soil and else were Educational takeaway: Week 7 feeding is about support, not growth. The girls have all the energy stored; now we just help them transform it into resin, aroma, and density. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temps: 28–30°C, slightly warmer in the canopy under heavy buds. • Humidity: 50–55% — perfect for trichome development. • CO₂: 620–650 ppm, steady, helping photosynthesis and sugar production. Observation: Trichome production loves a slightly drier mid-to-late flower environment. Too much humidity can reduce resin and promote mold on dense buds. ⸻ 💡 Lighting The lighting orchestra is still performing beautifully: • ThinkGrow Model One → penetrating the canopy • ThinkGrow ICL-300s → mid-canopy perfection • Future of Grow Black Series 600W → full-spectrum balance • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro → evening out footprint Result: every bud site is kissed by light, maximizing sugar leaves and resin density. ⸻ 🔄 Recap – Seed to Here For anyone joining now, here’s the full journey of our Mango Kush sisters: 1. Seed germination: Smooth, fast, with Aptus Start Booster. 2. Vegetative stage: Strong branching, two phenos selected, transplanted into super soil + Aptus Mycor-Mix. 3. Early Flower (Weeks 1–3): Pistils forming, Power Buds introduced, lighting expanded, TrolMaster ecosystem established. 4. Mid Flower (Weeks 4–6): Bulking, simplified nutrition, aroma starting, trichomes appearing, All-in-One Liquid and CalMag adjustments. 5. Week 7: Buds heavy, frost everywhere, aroma exploding, trichomes mostly milky with hints of amber — the final week before harvest. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect ✅ Expect: • Buds heavy and dense, needing support • Aroma extremely potent, filling the tent • Trichomes mostly milky, some amber • Sugar leaves sparkling with frost ❌ Don’t expect yet: • Complete amber conversion (full sedative effect) • Final cured aroma or flavor (only post-harvest) Educational takeaway: Week 7 is the climax of flower maturation. Now is the time to inspect, support, and admire — patience will yield the perfect harvest. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the GrowDiaries community: thank you for joining this journey from seed to near-harvest. The sisters have taught us patience, observation, and joy in every stage. To the gear: TrolMaster, ThinkGrow, Lumatek, Future Of Grow with the Black Series — thank you for letting the plants reach their full potential. 💚 Grower’s Reflection: These girls are monsters, monsters of beauty, resin, and aroma. Every macro shot shows why we love this process. And yes… if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be evacuating the neighborhood from sheer Mango Kush smell! 😅 Frosty, dense, magical — week 7 Flower is everything I hoped for. 📲 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. – About the Timeline A quick note for clarity: Mango Kush #1 and Mango Kush #2 are slightly offset in their flowering timeline — there’s about a week difference in their development. For the purpose of GrowDiaries, this Week 7 Flower report combines both sisters to provide a full picture of the tent and the ongoing bloom. While Mango Kush #1 is slightly ahead, and #2 a bit behind, this report reflects both in their mid-to-late flowering stage. Why combine them now? GrowDiaries updates are sometimes tricky, and combining the sisters allows us to share their progress together, making it easier for readers to follow the story and observe the similarities and differences. 🌱 Rest assured: When harvest comes, we’ll present a complete follow-up report covering harvest, dry, trim, cure, and smoke review — highlighting each sister’s unique traits and final results. Honesty is part of the journey, and transparency helps everyone learn and apprecilove the full picture. 💚 Growers love to all 💚

Hello. This is the end of week 7 and the beginning of week 8 of veg. Got one of the plants spread out. Just waiting for the other branches to get a little longer. Plants are doing good. The pots seem light today, so they will get some nutrient when I'm done with these diary postings. Another week or 2 of veg before I flip to flowering... Stay Tuned. OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.
