Day 43 since seed touched soil. Hard week past. Those long not drinking days when cycle was taking 8 days to dry out made damage, i still see magnesium, but now added some rusty spots and i cant understand is it calcium or my spraying of Leaf Coat and burn. No spray this week, will check if new will appear. Because of troubles i postponed flip and top up till next watering. It should be in 4-5 days. Done huge clearing, few more new ties added, reajusted old. 4 liters of 6.3 phed dechlorinated water went in after training. AK grows very nice, branches thick, will have solid size colas, can see now. Was damaged least, but beeing picky you can see some ;)) Planning to create scrog this week too. Mars Hydro TSL2000 is on 70% output, thinking to increase it with flip to 75. Light is working fine , really covers all space , great affordable light for colder climate. Day 45. Girls recovered from training very nice ! In few days flip . Day 47. Girls got top up. Put first level of scrog. Flipped to 12/12, tent is rammed ;) light output on 75%, 4 liters of 6.3 phed water went in. Top up was dosed, mixed well and laid on top, then i rough and mix top lair of soil with top up and only then i water. All pots are 30 litres ( grams and ml , have in mind ) : Ecothrive - Biosys - 5 ml / pot Ecotrive - Charge - 120 ml / pot Ecothrive - Life Cycle - 60 g. / pot Ecothrive - Bio Blend - 200 ml / pot. Think this will be my standart top up, i run out of Great White, have for one top up, will do it in 2-3 waterings seperately from all. Planning to repeat same top up at begining of week 4 of flower. Girls look better without spraying, most prob burn from too intense light, despite me giving 30-60 min of reduced to minimum after spraying. From now on - only when lights off. Will apply in few days, think Saturday. Happy Growing !!!

Buenas señores ! Esta semana ha sido un poco ajetreada en general, las plantas parecen estar listas ,pero dejaré un poco más con agua sola para quitar todo el alimento que tienen almacenado ya que parecen estar cebadas y vomitando los nutrientes, ya que la ec cuando he cambiado el agua ha subido más de lo que puse,entro siendo alta de 3.55 y ha salido en 6,4 la verdad que una animalada, he optado por dejarles 24h agua sola de ósmosis a ec de 0.08,según han ido pasando las horas ha ido subiendo y en 12 horas estaba en 2,15 de ec, pasadas 24h ya estába en 4,12 y decidí cambiarla de nuevo ,después de 10h esta en 1,65. Pasadas 18h baja a 1,35,eso significa que ya comen de los restos que les quedan. A mitad de esta semana que viene haré cambio de agua y pondre flawles finish durante 24h y cambiaré a agua de ósmosis sin nada con ec de 0.08. Por lo que le he leído el flawles finish de Advance Nutrients se pone durante 6h,yo lo dejaré 24h,luego por lo que he leído dicen que para limpiar raíces dos o tres Días de limpieza, que me parecen pocos y así que unos 4 días y cambio de nuevo a agua limpia otros 4 días más a ver si se consumen ellas mismas y empiezan las carencias haciendo que se coman ellas mismas y dejándolas limpias del todo ya que creo que me he pasado en ec. He tenido que limpiar bien el tanque entero ya que había posos de excesos de abonos y ec ,de tal manera que se había creado una capa de minerales en el tanque y en los riegos que empezaba a joder a las plantas .Esta semana con las lluvias y las bajadas de temperaturas se ha notado en tener que bajar el tiempo de extractores y potencia de ventiladores,así hemos conseguido unas temperaturas y condiciones ideales para el cultivo y la etapa en la están. Ya estamos en el final del cultivo y me sorprende lo rápido que va todo en el cultivo hidroponico, la verdad que la temporada que viene volveré de nuevo con hidroponico y unas cosas que estoy probando para ver si la temporada que viene todo va au mejor ,ya estoy buscando las siguientes elegidas para todo el año que viene y veremos que nos depara. Habrá que hacer la cata y pesaje final para ver como ha ido y a que sabe , que es la mejor parte!!! La verdad que la experiencia de cultivar en sustrato inerte e hidroponico hace que Un entiendas más como alimentar tus plantas y para que es cada elemento de la tabla de cultivo haciendo que se gane en experiencia a la vez que disfrute el aprendizaje en formas nuevas de cultivar! Parámetros : Humedad : 40%/45% Temperatura : 25°C Temperatura agua : 19°C Ph 6,4 en el cambio de agua Ph 6,7 actual EC 0.62 EC de inicio 0.08 agua de ósmosis de los filtros GrowMax 45L de agua Abonos: Advance 2ml/L Flawless Finish Iremos viendo como va esta semana que viene siendo por lo que parece el final ya que hay mucho tricoma ámbar y muchos de los pelos esta marrones a simple vista y no creo que vayan a engordar mucho más. Huelen que da miedo a la vez que embriaga ,tengo ganas de verlas cortadas y colgando!! Nada más en esta actualización semanal! Espero que os guste y gracias por pasaros!! Saludos!!

Not going to go into much detail on the individual plants this week since there is nothing exciting to report. Only note this week is something we all pretty much know already. Organics and hydroponics dont play well together! I was using gringo Rasta calmag and it clogged all my feed lines. I ordered some calimagic so this wont be an issue anymore. Everyone is growing well and stretching quite a bit. I started them on some maxibloom. I will increase it as I lower the maxigro over the next couple weeks. Pretty boring right now, but stick around a few weeks and that might change.

First day of week 6, I will be adding content as the week progresses, have a look at week 5 as that is now complete. Status: Candy Kush #1 d36 - Looking awesome, some pistils showing. Was too bushy so did some LST and slight defoliation today with supercrop on 1 branch. Candy Kush #2 d36 - Looks like nitrogen deficiency is sorted, now I have excess? :D see the clawing tips? Gonna stick with the current feed, hopefully she'll overcome otherwise I'll flush her once if things get worse. Bubble Kush d32 - Amazing, nothing to report, some tucking done Fastberry d32 - Looking as weird as ever, some tucking done Sugar Mama d36 - growing and getting really bushy, shame about the mess I did with the roots/stem but she is doing ok now. ---- Fed 2nd day of weeks 6 (day 37), 3ml biogrow 2ml calmag. pH was at 6.5 Ec was at 1.5. New leaves are really yellow in candy Kush 2, iron deficiency? Not sure what is happening, will be monitoring. ---- Day 38, Removed the yellow leaves and a little defoliation on all the plants ---- Day 39, Raised the shorter plants so they get some more lights. All of them have finished 35 days (5 weeks from seedling today) and are looking great. Feed the same, although they still look very bright, brighter than I am used to. ---- Day 41, Feeding time, started giving them bloom at 5ml/l and the other normal dosages as in diary. ---- Day 42, End of week 6 The girls are all looking great, there is is so much hair on the buds, haven't seen so much with outdoor grows. Exciting :D Sugar mama is way too bushy and not getting taller. The new blades are too thin, maybe I'm overfeeding her (only biogrow+calmag)? defoliated her, lots of fan leaves removes, she is asking for some training, I've ordered plant tie and will do some LST when delivered. Fastberry also had a couple of leaves removed All kushs doing great Thanks for reading and happy growing!

Good plant! Was attacked by flies (Sciaridae), thrips, tetranychus and a monster cat but always remained strong! The attacks had just slowed down the growth (this little one has 2 month of growth). Even in microgrow, the blooming is really impressive: as fast as an indica but for as long as a sativa. The genetics is not perfect: some parts of the same flower were too mature and some new parts swere still emerging... it's a research strain! The smell is really good and relatively light comparing to others strains. After few volacano : the weed taste like "tropical soda" or passion fruit mixed with cream. The effect is much stronger than I expected for a THC-CBD hybrid, is more indica than the pure indica: the afghan side + the CBD relaxation make a real sleeping medecine. => The taste and effect are really different from every other strain, try it!

Just flip these plants about 3 or 4 days ago. Had some bud trainers on the branches to get them down a little bit lower is this plant tends to stretch. We should see some nice Frosty buds in a few weeks . Stay tuned and tune in

Variedad con una floración corta, entre 8/9 semanas. Procedente del original Exodus Clon (UK). Predominancia indica con un nivel de thc superior al 16% . Es muy fácil de cultivar y la alimentación la acepta muy bien en general . Cada etapa cumplió con mis expectativas y por ello aparte del sabor el colocon ... en cuanto a todas sus etapas le doy 9/10 . CEPA BRUTAL enserio.

Dear Diary This week was uneventful nothing to write, same treatment as the week before, exept I added some Advanced nutrients " BigBud" to the mix. It contains phosphorus andpotassium and is used during week 2 through 4 of the bloom phase. EC still around 1.3-1.4.

Cherry Cola's Grand Flourish in the Floral Symphony Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 4 has unfurled its petals in the mesmerizing floral journey of our beloved Cherry Cola Auto. The tent is now a stage for a grand botanical opera, and our green queen stands as a testament to the wonders of cultivation. Let's dive into the details of this flourishing spectacle! As we venture deeper into Week 4, the floral elegance of Cherry Cola Auto takes center stage. What was once a lush bush has evolved into a breathtaking beauty, a true testament to the success of our horticultural endeavors. The topping technique and the release from training supports have paved the way for a regal display of colas and buds. The decision to set our Cherry Cola free from the constraints of training supports continues to be a triumph. The tent is now a realm of bushy brilliance, and our green queen stands tall, a majestic presence commanding attention. It's a living masterpiece in perpetual motion. The echoes of our topping tales from previous weeks resonate in the structure of Cherry Cola's colas. Each topped branch has evolved into a flourishing bud-laden entity, contributing to the overall grandeur of our green canvas. The decision to embark on this topping journey has truly paid off. Our nutrient symphony, now joined by the magical touch of Potassium (K), continues to fuel the botanical brilliance. P-Boost and Topbooster, with their orchestration of phosphorus, organic grace, and now potassium magic, create a harmonious dance of blooming processes. The buds are becoming robust, laden with fibers, resins, and sugars, promising a top-tier end product. Every day, the visual majesty of Cherry Cola unfolds with new growth, showcasing the resilience and vitality she possesses. It's more than a plant; it's a living testament to the artistry of cultivation. As we conclude Week 4, Cherry Cola Auto stands as a botanical opera in full swing. The tent is alive with the grand flourish of a floral symphony. Stay tuned, fellow enthusiasts, as we eagerly await the next thrilling act in the Cherry Cola Chronicles!

Welcome back at week 6 in vegetative stage of my Sensi Amnesia feminized by Sensi Seeds. She does great and almost the whole 60x60 space is filled with the 8 new mains. I will give her one more week and a defoliation in a few days. I am amazingly happy with her and can’t wait to start flowering stage. Day 44: defoliation Day 47: I flipped the switch to 12/12 ! Let the flowering begin Keep in touch ! Cheers, HighZenBerg

🌸 Week 3 Flower – The Jungle Takes Over The girls are now towering at 1.20 m, turning our tent into a proper green jungle. Both phenotypes are thriving with thick stalks, lush foliage, and a dense network of branches promising a spectacular flower set. This week was all about control and balance. ✂️ Defoliation & Growth Management Although these plants have been allowed to grow naturally so far, their explosive stretch meant I had to step in. I performed a strategic defoliation, not because the plants were weak, but to: • Improve airflow through the canopy. • Ensure light reaches lower bud sites. • Slow vertical growth and help prevent them from outgrowing the tent. Even with a high ceiling, there’s still a risk of running out of headroom during the last stretch. Defoliating at this stage also redirects energy to bud formation instead of excessive leaf production. Note: During this process, a few branches were accidentally broken while moving them out for photos. I left this in the report and photos as a learning moment, large plants can be tricky to handle. This may be the last out-of-tent photoshoot before harvest. 🌱 Structure & Bud Development • Both phenotypes are highly branched, with bud sites forming all the way down the stems. • First signs of proper bud stacking are visible, with white pistils everywhere. • Plants look symmetrical, vibrant, and full of energy — a promising start to mid-flower. 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Base nutrients: • Aptus Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L occasionally (soil already contains slow-release pellets) Bloom boosters (Plagron): • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L (multi-action bloom stimulator, PK booster, and terpene enhancer) • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L (amino acid-rich biostimulant, improves aroma & resilience) • Power Buds – 1 ml/L (early flowering booster to promote faster bud set) This combined recipe ensures the plants receive balanced macro and micronutrients while enhancing flower development, resin production, and terpene expression. pH & EC: • Feed solution pH: ~6.0–6.1 • Feed EC: ~1.04 mS/cm (soil EC still at ~2.96 mS/cm, so feed is moderated) 🌡️ Environment • Soil temperature: 24–24.7°C • Air temperature: 29°C • Humidity: 67% • VPD: 1.37 kPa Conditions are slightly warm, but the plants are coping well. ⸻ 📌 Summary Week 3 of flower has been a turning point, from a lush veg canopy to a budding powerhouse. Strategic defoliation will help manage height and airflow, while the combined Aptus + Plagron feeding strategy aims to maximize flower density, aroma, and overall plant health. The structure is impressive, with a sea of potential bud sites that promise a heavy, aromatic harvest. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Looking good! I gave up on #1&2 the soil was just a bad mix. Think Ill give it 1 more week until I start flower.
