Preparing to yank out top shelf and rejig things. I can only gain 4” but it will be needed as this thing is running hard. Closer than 8-10” to the LED light, and she WILL get cooked! Next Gen grow box gains almost 8” in height with same dimensions, so problem solved. I may have to cut CO2 until stretch is over or just cut altogether. I got a close eye in her. Day 44: She's looking good, and stretching at a rate of 2"/day in her tin can. I did a light defoliation and cleaned up training wires. I'll leave her be from here on out; less some selective defoliation to keep sites open. I cut CO2 (which would have been helpful a bit earlier), and may turn back on at the end of week 8, time will tell. Day 46: She looks like she is 4+ days behind when compared to the other 4 autos I have grown. She will either catch up, take longer to mature, or I'm screwed because of the heavy defol. Flower development seems slow/odd. 10pm and she’s now 22” tall and too close to the light. Flower productivity accelerating for sure. Maybe she will just catch up, and finish late? Bummer I had this one in quarantine. Day 48: leave symptoms developed further into dark rust spots very suspect to a calcium deficiency. I flushed for a few hours, cut Gro out all together and bumped Micro and Bloom. Increased CalMag from .8ml to 1.5 ml/gallon. Now observing. Day 49: Another day or two will tell but it feels like the deficiency is slowing as the progression on day 47-48 was an hour by hour progression. Throughout the week, and almost everyday, I have taken a dozen or so leaves throughout the canopy and the undergrowth. One day I defoliated her pretty good, but not super heavy. Massive leaf production and has crowded the plant/bud sites out in a matter of a day or two. Day 52: Looks like calcium or possibly potassium deficiency back in check. Newer leaves look good and no progression on older leaves.

Stretching is still going. Buds development is great and i have no issue what so ever so far. Just the leafs hang a bit due to less watering but that changed.

2/24/25 - Gave them 1 liter each from the top with fermented plant extract at 1tbsp per gallon of water and then fill the res with a little under 2.5 gallons all PH'd at 6.0, added a small heater outside the tent to raise the temp inside a bit. The girls are starting to take off in growth over the last couple days after transplant. I leave for vacation in 4 days so lets hope the homemade earthbox works. 2/27/25 - Leaving for vacation first thing in the morning so i will be doing a top water tonight at about 1 gallon per plant and they will also get the fermented plant extract at 1tbsp per gallon. then i will be filling the res with water until full, plants tops have been tied down for some LST and branches have been tucked but ill just have to let them grown for the next week. No one will be taking care of the plants so hopefully the SIP last for the week, if not they will get a nice dry back and get watered once i return.

17/01 So I have had serious doubts about my 300W CFL grow light since day 1 so I decided to instead opt for a Mars Hydro TS1000. Looking forward to seeing if there's any difference! With regards to my previous grow question, my tap water, while drinkable tastes terrible and has a higher than normal amount of chlorine which i heard is terrible for plants. Hence the RO water. Got hit by a really cold spell last week and I struggled to keep the tent above 16 degrees C but it's starting to get back to normal now so hopefully will see some good growth :) 20/01 So I may have set her back by a couple of day's with the new light, apart from the apparent change in wavelength from CFL to led that can cause some stress I also gave her 100% on the dimmer. Just a quick note to any newbies out there, the Mars Hydro TS1000 gives you a recommended distance from the canopy for each stage of growth but not recommended power, if your girl is at my stage of growth use 25-30%. On the bright side she has adapted nicely and no lasting damage seems to have been done. Seeing signs of growth all over and she's back to praying :) 23/01 She recovered from the change of light nicely! She's growing like a superstar now and just got her first feed today. Gonna take it easy on the nutrients, really don't wanna stress her out anymore. I have been turning up the light strength daily and she's currently happy at 50%.

First i have to say i messed up at gemenation 3 of them dyed and had to gereminat again. So: Sweet seeds: Black Cream Gem at 30/3, Veg at 6/4 is now preflowering at week 3 and was the only one that didnt dyed. Zamnesia: Wedding Cake Gem at 6/4, Veg at 12/4 is now at week 2 Bomberry Glue Gem at 8/4, Veg at 14/4 is now at week 2 also Purple Couscous Gem at 11/4, Veg at 17/4 is now at end of week 1 Its going to be a strange diary but because the timelapse ideia makes all sense just to make one Diary. When I was enjoying some smoke from a green gelato came to my mind what if i automated my garden? Hand on in some zigbee sensores and plugs and my Hassio. Done some flows on node red and this is what i have got till now: Fully autometed light: 1 mars hydro ts1000 17.5h hours a day 2 Cosmorrow blooming 18.5 hours a day 1 uvb light 3 hours a day Fan: Temperature controlled ( working on how can i control vpd with it) CO2: Working But Disable( Jq300 not stable sensor it poles from cloud waiting for another sensor to arrive to connect to a esp32 and pole my values) Vent: controles by inou temperature delta Cam: Live feed and timlapse My Hassio gives me telegram notifications and plugs control, ppfd, dli, vpd calculed and the normal temp and humidity. Still No soil moiste control just a miflora but not very accuret still searching for sensor that works to come up with a watering system All its maid to have a <300watts consum so small lamps and no dehumidifier buts very easy to scale it up. Im all open in sharing my work and help on new ideas. Please Coment and help develop it

Beide Pflanzen (24K Gold & Gelato 33) entwickeln sich hervorragend und haben in dieser Woche deutlich an Dichte und Struktur gewonnen. Das Training zeigt klaren Erfolg – der Wuchs ist flach, gleichmäßig und perfekt für die kommende ScroG-Phase vorbereitet. 24K Gold reagiert sehr dynamisch auf das Low-Stress-Training. Sie treibt stark aus allen Achsen, und die Seitentriebe haben beinahe dieselbe Höhe wie der Haupttrieb. Ihr Wuchs ist energiegeladen, sativalastig und offen, was für optimale Lichtverteilung sorgt. Gelato 33 bleibt weiterhin kompakter, jedoch extrem buschig. Ihre internodalen Abstände sind kurz, die Blätter breit und sattgrün. Durch das wiederholte Binden und Umlenken wächst sie symmetrisch und kräftig nach – ein ideales Fundament für hohe Ertragsdichte. Das Bewässerungssystem läuft stabil: Tropfbewässerung mehrmals täglich in kurzen Intervallen. Düngung aktuell bei Canna Coco A + B → 4 ml/l, pH ≈ 5.8, EC ≈ 1.3. Die Pflanzen reagieren perfekt – keinerlei Mangel oder Überdüngung. Klimawerte: 🌡️ Temperatur 25–26 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit 60 % 💨 Stabile Luftzirkulation für kräftige Stämme Beide Strains zeigen vitales, gesundes Wachstum – Gelato 33 mit dichten, kräftigen Blättern; 24K Gold mit offenem, explosivem Wuchs. Das Training verläuft planmäßig, die Basis für gleichmäßige Blüteentwicklung ist gelegt.

Not actually much to report here! Some slight bleaching to the main colas and clearly the leaves are being sucked dry of thier nutrients despite my feeding. Clear indication of her finishing up now, slowly the frost is appearing and the stank Fast Buds warns us all about is very much apparent! 😁 a beautiful smell to be welcomed to when ever I’m inspecting! I’ll give her water after her final feed today of nutrients, next week should be harvest week looking at the trichomes current maturity and pace of development. See you all next week with some much anticipated pics and smells! ✌️👊👍 stay safe and stay growing guys and gals! Much love as always 🙌🙂

Die letzten Tage unter 18 Stunden. Bin froh, dass ich mich entschieden habe alle drei, statt nur zwei Stück mitzunehmen, wie ich anfangs geplant habe. Alle drei wachsen mittlerweile wirklich schön, sind stark und gesund. Das Blattwerk musste schon in bisschen gestutzt werden, um die Seitentriebe etwas mehr zu beleuchten.

🌱 White OG - Week 11 VEG Strain: White OG by Seedsman Seeds Stage: Week 11 Vegetative Grower: DogDoctor Medium: PRO-MIX HP Mycorrhizae + Bacillus Pot: 30L Fabric Pot Lighting: Future of Grow LEDs Climate Control: TrolMaster Nutrients: Aptus Holland Clean Program Environment: 🌡️ Temp: 18.3°C 💧 pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: 1.0 ⸻ 🔄 The Last Week Before the Flip Week 11… a moment of calm before the bloom storm. A critical phase in our girl’s journey. This is the week we prepare her for greatness. 💪 ✅ Defoliation Madness: This week, we defoliate the hell out of her. That’s right—removing those large fan leaves that block light, those unnecessary suckers that won’t make it to the top floor, and freeing up her inner structure to breathe and expand. Why now? Because right before flipping to flower is the perfect time to help her redirect energy to the strong tops and main branches. It reduces the risk of mold, improves air circulation, and ensures even light distribution. Plus, it gives us a blank canvas for the flower stage to explode onto. 🌸💥 ✅ Clamp Release & Scrog Setup: We gently remove the training clamps, and in she goes into the SCROG net. But not in a rigid way—we’re inviting her to stretch, encouraging her to reach out and take up space. She’s a big mama now, and it’s time she gets the full stage. Each branch is dancing through the net like a diva ready for her solo performance. ✅ Roots on a Mission: She’s hungry for life. Roots are peeking out from the fabric pot, diving toward the light, the floor—everywhere. This PRO-MIX soil is magic, and with the help of the Aptus Clean Mix, she’s thriving. Her root zone is bright white and packed with potential. Healthy roots, healthy shoots, happy fruit. ⸻ Feeding This Week We’re still rolling with the Aptus Clean Line for this stage. Simple, effective, elegant. 🔹 Regulator – Helping her stay strong and stress-free. 🔹 RO Water Conditioner – Stabilizing and prepping our base. 🔹 All-In-One Liquid – Feeding her exactly what she needs without overcomplication. ⸻ 🌐 Shout Outs & Love Forever grateful to our amazing partners and supporters: 💚 Seedsman Seeds 💚 Aptus Holland 💚 Future of Grow LED 💚 TrolMaster 💚 PRO-MIX Soil 💚 Cannakan 💚 GrowDiaries 💚 The entire community—lovers, haters, followers, and the in-betweeners—you’re all part of this journey. 🌍 Come say hi on Instagram [@DogDoctorOfficial] and check out the Dognabis Cup – First Edition—open now! 🎉 Let’s celebrate passion, plants, and positive vibes. ⸻ 🌸 Let’s Bloom White OG is ready to bloom. She’s strong, structured, and full of fire. Next week begins a new chapter—the flowering stage. Let’s see what she has in store. 🌱 Stay kind. Stay curious. Stay growing. Much love, DogDoctor 💚🐾 #GrowDiaries #WhiteOG #ToppingMadness #AptusHolland #Mainlining #PlantTraining #GrowersLove #SeedsmanSeeds As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant.Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together! 💚Growers Love 💚 🌿 DISCOUNT CODE - SeedsmanSeeds - DOGDOCTOR 10% off As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏

Going into the fourth week of flower and the canopy is spreading nicely. Ladies are very healthy. Alternating watering with water and cal-magd+microbial mix in addition to a light weekly top dressing. This is my best grow so far: No burned leaves No burned tips No leaf curling from over watering No yellowing leaves at the top or bottom set of leaves from nutrient deficiencies No bugs

The Harvest Prelude: After a patient wait and 48 hours of darkness, the moment arrived. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, standing proudly like a silent guardian, was ready for the grand harvest. The sound of each cut echoed through the grow space, reminiscent of felling a mighty tree. The compact structure of the buds was awe-inspiring, a testament to the ninja's disciplined growth. The Lego Ninja, like a stoic warrior, was then hung upside down, beginning a two-week drying ritual. Maintaining an ambient temperature of around 21°C and a relative humidity of 60%, this slow-drying process allowed the buds to retain their essence, preserving the symphony of terpenes and cannabinoids. The trimming phase unfolded like a fragrant masterpiece. Each bud, adorned with a glistening layer of resin, transformed the trimming process into a sensory delight. The zesty aroma of oranges enveloped the room, a tangible expression of the tropical lineage. The compact buds made every snip a careful dance, revealing an abundance of frosty trichomes. The moment of reckoning arrived with the scale's unveiling. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, from a single plant, bestowed upon me 309 grams of dried medicine. Each gram was a treasure trove of cannabinoids, a promise of euphoria and relief. The sheer compactness of the buds translated into a concentrated potency that left me in awe. In parallel, the clones, nurtured with equal care, showcased a fascinating divergence. A twist in the tale unfolded as the intense oranges of the mother transitioned into vibrant tangerines. This unique expression, I believe, was a testament to the clones weathering a summer heatwave differently, bringing forth a distinct personality. The clones, resilient and generous, gifted me a bountiful 549 grams of pure joy. This now my keeper of the garden, an embodiment of the Lego Ninja's legacy. The harvest dance, though familiar, carried the nuances of tangerine zest, a refreshing twist that left me eager to explore its intricacies. Both harvests shared a common thread—their resinous abundance. The trim bin, akin to a treasure chest, gleamed with golden trichomes and fragrant joy. Sticky fingers became a badge of honor, a tangible connection to the resinous richness that filled the room. Shout Outs: No harvest report is complete without expressions of gratitude. A special nod to @DutchPassion_Official for crafting the genetic marvel that is the Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja. Their expertise paved the way for this epic journey, and I tip my hat in acknowledgment. In conclusion: As the dust settles on this epic harvest saga, my heart brims with happiness and excitement. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja has proven itself not just as a plant but as a living masterpiece. Stay tuned for the smoke report, where we delve into the true essence of this botanical ninja's legacy. Until then, fellow cultivators, may your gardens flourish, and your harvests be as bountiful as the joy they bring. As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life<3 <3 <3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience With true love comes happiness <3 <3 <3 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so <3 <3 <3 Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only <3 <3 <3 Growers Love To you All <3 <3 <3 P.S- I must extend my sincerest apologies for the missing video reports.

Blue Gelato - Royal Queen Seeds, 118 days from seed and 70 days in flowering. We're watering her with pure water and ice, preparing for the harvest. We've also tried smoking the lower buds, and the result is simply incredible—very potent and flavorful. Now we're waiting for full maturity and root flushing to experience the full strength of this beauty.

No signs of flowering yet, maybe slight formation of calxys beginning. Been spraying with molasses, neem, cal mag and liquid kelp (bioweed) and superthrive just once to hopefully delay flowering to increase yield. P.S. if youre new at growing DO NOT try this unless you know what your doing with hormones etc. Theres a chance it can turn your girls hermie. Just be aware!

Very fast seedling process, seeds stayed soaking for 24h and in the water they were already showing the first white root hair, another 48h in the paper towel and the day I potted them up they showed cotyledons. They took around 11 days to reach third node and complete germination but honestly I belive it could be faster if in better enviroment, mainly the humidity which was low and I transplanted them a day late. From day 5 I started feeding them exact same nutrients and ratio from the first vegetative week but starting at 0.4EC and increasing by 0.1EC/day until 1.1EC

Sulla più piccola sono arrivate le mosche bianche per sfortuna, spero che non invadono le altre, non da nemmeno segni di sviluppo la Cherry, peccato.. Le altre in grande forma, soprattutto il mostro di skittles! Ho annaffiature solo 2 volte con noci questa settimana il resto solo acqua, non voglio stressante troppo, ormai è ora della fioritura per loro ❤️ Spero che non continuino a nutrirsi delle mie piccole..per ora gestibile, stiamo a vedere. Le infiorescenze iniziano a ingrandirsi, il profumo anche, meravigliose.
