🌿 Lava Cake – Week 6 (2nd Week Flower) | Morphing Into Bloom 🌿 The Lava Cakes are officially stepping deeper into flower mode. Stretch is slowing down, morphology is shifting, the leaves, the stance, the energy of the plants are clearly moving toward bloom. Even without a huge photo set this week, the video walkthrough tells the full story: happy, thriving plants under carefully tuned conditions. ⸻ 📖 A Quick Recap – From Seed to Here • Seedling Stage: Strong germination, started in solo cups with Aptus support, rooting fast. • Veg Growth: Transplanted into fabric pots, lush branching, topped and trained with ease. • Environment Setup: TrolMaster ecosystem dialed in step by step — exhausts, intakes, carbon filters, sensors. • Lighting Evolution: Black Series 600 → Future of Grow LEDs → ThinkGrow Model 1 → now with a Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W and the ThinkGrow ICL-300 added to the lineup. The room is a galaxy of light. • Nutrition Journey: From Aptus start boosters to super soil base, steadily adapted feeding. Now, the recipe grows richer for flowering. Each step has built the foundation for what’s happening now, the Lava Cakes standing strong in early flower. ⸻ 🍽️ This Week’s Feeding Recipe We swapped Start Booster for Top Booster and layered in a new experiment: Plagron trio support. Current Mix (per L water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml The Aptus All-in-One Liquid is on pause for now, pellets in the soil still provide baseline nutrition. This new combo is about flower initiation + terpene support + bio-stimulants. It’s partly science, partly intuition — but that’s how discoveries are made. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment This Week • Room Temp: Up to 34°C (AC unit coming soon to stabilize) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watered when dry-down hits 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → reading EC, moisture %, and soil temp straight to Tent-X brain Conditions aren’t perfect, but the girls are handling it gracefully. Warmth makes them thirsty, and with careful irrigation + sensor data, they’re drinking daily and staying strong. ⸻ 💡 Lights of the Garden • Future of Grow LED • ThinkGrow Model 1 and ICL-300 • Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W All tied into the TrolMaster network. The room is now a layered ecosystem of precision — light spread, airflow, and CO₂ distribution tuned for a canopy that can handle big flower production ahead. ⸻ 🐝 A Note for Nature – The Bees Alongside all this controlled technology, we can’t forget the real farmers of the world: bees. A photo this week shows a bee at work, pollinating. Without bees, there would be no flowers, not in the garden, not in the fields, not in the orchards. They are nature’s TrolMaster, carrying genetics forward, balancing ecosystems, ensuring that plants fulfill their destiny. In our indoor rooms, we simulate everything: light, water, air, food. But bees remind us of the real story outside, a world built on quiet pollination, day by day. A fairytale where the smallest wings sustain the biggest cycles of life. So this week, the Lava Cakes bloom under LEDs, and the bees bloom under the sun. 🌞🐝 ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC will stabilize the room climate and drop stress levels. • Flowers will set fully, with pistils stacking over the next 7–10 days. • Plagron trio will show its effects, watching closely for flavor, resin, and density changes. • More light power may be added as the canopy demands. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thought: Even on a busy week, even with just a video instead of many photos, the story of these Lava Cakes is alive. They’re moving into flower with strength, under lights, with data guiding them — but always with love as the main ingredient. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

I tried her now several times. She get's better every week during cure but after roughly 1,5 months, she still tastes only slightly like a cookies strain.

Seguimos avanzando en la floración!. nortes encontramos casi en el ecuador de lo que comenta el calendario de esta variedad. Deciros que está empezando a oler y de una manera interesante. Para mí es un aroma tropical exótico. Seguimos con una buena dieta en fósforo y potasio acompañado de vitaminas y azúcares naturales de remolacha y caña.

: Total Days - 62 Total Flower nights - 22 Overcrowding is playing out. HST is done by end of this week. Plants are healthy and likely predisposed to be taller plants, but overcrowding did not help. Better canopy management would have helped.

QUICK GROW STATS/NOTES THROUGHOUT EACH WEEK: ————————————————————————— 5/15: Seed germinated on 5/13 via Cannakan. Planted in Earthbox with BAS 3.0 soil. Sprouted 5/15. ———— 5/18: She's grown. A little stretch, I'd say. I lowered the light closer and checked PPFD using Photone. Right now, she is on a 20-on/4-off light schedule (will change soon). With the Evoframe on 3 or 30%, her light condition is as follows: Light Distance: 2 FT above the seedling PPFD: 252 DLI: 17.8 Pretty soon, as she develops her first set of seedling leaves (a one-finger pair), I'll take out the infrared thermometer to set the VPD offset. ———— 5/19: She's getting bigger! Not much to see here. Check photos! ————————————————————————————— CONTEXT ABOUT THE GROW, SETUP, & ANY OTHER INFO I WANT TO SHARE: I have a 2x4 for veg and a 4x4 for flowering. I plan to scrog train her in the 4x4, hopefully around 1-2ft above the top of the Earthbox. I am also using the new Spectrum AI Camera from AC Infinity! See short clips and photos above. The AI is pretty sweet. It lets you know when it sees stress, if the tent was left open, and more. It also provides daily growth estimates based on historical data. I also use the AC Infinity to get leaf temperature to properly set the VPD offset. At this stage, she's a bit too small to worry about that. I focus on keeping temps around 80F during the day and 72F at night. Also, I keep the humidity around 70-80%. ————————————————————————————— SOIL PREP, TREATMENT, AND PLAN: I use Build A Soil 3.0. For a seedling, this needs NOTHING to begin with. I used Quillaja during prep for the 10-gallon soil bed in the Earthbox. Quillaja is a Saponin wetting agent. I also used WDG3000. This is used to kill fungus gnats or their larvae, if any exist. The microbiology in 3.0 soil can carry this seedling weeks into veg without any feeding. I pre-soaked the soil with 1/2 gallon (5% of the soil's volume) of RO water. No PH. Around 2 weeks into veg, I'll start organically feeding her based on the BAS Supplemental Feeding chart. Top dressing and watering (top, not reservoir) will happen once a week from then on. Shortly after, I'll add 1/2 gal of water to the reservoir and measure how long she takes to drink it. Over time (a few weeks after veg, week 2), I'll ramp her up to 2 gal of water in the reservoir, refilling only when she goes dry. Any additional details are covered in the attached images of the feeding and environmental protocol!

Week 15 days 99-105 . I'm am flushing all plants with 1 gallon of filtered water each. I've reduced the light cycle from 18 to 14 hours to reduce heat stress. It may reduce yield as well based on comments I've read in other growers diaries. An oz per plant would be nice. Of course more would be better but an oz makes a pound of cannabutter. Reducing the light hours is reducing the purpleness in the stems of og kush and gorilla glue but Purple chill still has purple stems The Natrona sisters spend their nights in the garage where the temps are 10-15 degrees cooler than in the day temps in the tent. Night temps ranged this week between 63-66 with rh 51-76%. The high rhythm comes after a rain. During the day, I'm keeping the tent open while circulating 2 fans. Day Temps can reach 80 so it gets hot in there. flooded each plant with 1 gal of water. From here forward I will be flushing all plants with filtered water at 1 gal for each plant every other day. Monday, flushed with 1 gal of water. Starting this flush, I added ice to the top of the soil before watering. See photo. This is a stress technique used to force plant phenotype colors. I don't think it will work for mine as I over fed. While I have 3 different strains, they look the same with blue green dominance. Thursday, flushed with 1 gal of water. Starting this flush, I added ice to the top of the soil before watering. See photo Saturday, flushed with 1 gal of water. Starting this flush, I added ice to the top of the soil before watering. See photo Sunday photos I'm not seeing any change in leaf or bud colorations from flushing out the fertilizers nor from the ice treatment. General comments" After putting the plants in the garage during the night, morning soil temperatures are within a degree of the night air temperature. This has been about 15 degrees cooler (50s) than the tent temperatures (75+). This week our weather has been unseasonably warm so the night temperatures have been 63-71 with Rh 51-70% Tent temps in the day 75-80 and RH 47-59%. Special thanks to @DreamIT for showing me how to add music to video. Check out my Gigi video above for a short clip.

I got Buds! Only a about a week old so the're tiny. Just watered with some Recharge and did some pruning, looking a tad droopy but should peak up in couple hours. Over all very health looking plants, So glad I switched to organic fertilizer, saw one gnat in the garden a few days ago, so as a precaution I put up a couple sticky traps, already got mosquito dunks mixed in the top soil from last time. Haven't see him since, might be stuck on one of the traps :).

Day 50 - Starting off week 5 and she’s smelling amazing. Not very strong throughout the house but as soon as the tent is opened, you can smell the tropical citrus. Gave her the first feeding of the week today and just counting down till chop, still a couple weeks away but she’s filling in and fattening up nicely. Day 51 - Nothing new to report today. She’s doing her thing and I’m just enjoying watching the growth and fattening each day. Day 52 - Think she’s just about done stretching, hopefully she’s starting to move on to the fattening up more part. Gave her some fresh pH’d water today and seems happy. Day 53 - All is good, just updating pics for the day. Day 54 - All still looking good and gave her the second and final feeding of the week. Waiting for her to really start bulking up in the next couple weeks before chopping but looks like she’s still got plenty of time left.

Před čtyřmi dny jsem sundal která jednu už byla.. trichomy už začaly mít i jantarovou kterou nechávám jen trochu..ani né třetinu.Světlo jsem dal na 75%..No a dneska jsem sklidil zbytek. Prorostlé a tvrdé. Lepkavá brokolice mi voní a vypadá to pěkně.. těším se na kouř. Pověsil a nechám schnout.. potom zvážím až suché a ostříhané.

The smell is so great wish I’d be getting more nuggets off of this girl but at least it is dense will continue to keep updating as the week goes on
