Another 2 weeks to 18 days and should be able to wrap this one up. Looking promising considering only 330w was used, 36w/sqft. Its bud ripening time. Pics are of Day 46 currently sitting at day 49 to be precise. GHL

Day 43 Update. Well the tall girl stretched past my lights maximum height. So I LST her main branch. See the first 2 pictures. 馃榾 Its very hard to capture there true beauty with just pictures so I took a video. So give it a watch. Well they exploded this week. The big one doubled her size and I had to move her down too the bottom level because she pushed her LED light out of her way to grow past it. Other ones only gained 5-10 inches. Very happy with these girls. 5 of them got defoliated, the other 2 didn't really need it. I was able to give the 6 bigger girls 2 shots of Bud Igniter before I ran out. I will have to get some more when I have the money. However I did just get Nirvana at the beginning of the week and they seem to love it. I'm still being careful I don't want to over feed them. The 7th one is still in veg at day 28. She got LST and defoliated 2 days ago but now you can hardly tell. I don't think she has even started stretching yet. She could be massive. They are being watered/feed every 1-2 days now.

6/26 Rained last night. Might have showers bur the sky is clear. Real good weather coming. I need to transplant those seedlings. Plants are noticeably bigger every day. I see small spits of damage but it's isolated and in a high wind area. I'll address it and watch for nute deficiencies. Also need to transplant those seedlings. At leastcones an auto. 6/27 Rained overnight again. Looks clear today but we did get some rain yesterday. Tomorrow is all sun. I'm planning to transplant those 3 seedlings today. Also noticed some ragged holes so I've got a few pests. Looks like grasshoppers or something. With all the rain could be slugs or pillars I guess. Need to get ipm up amd running. I've got work to do. Found a plant on my gmo in the 30 bag. It got sun burnt and wind burnt but came out of it and they're all doing great. At first this one was a little behind after transplant but so were the other gmo's. Originally, it was one of my best plant prior to transplant outdoors. That one leaf I found during a thorough inspection of the garden. I'm hoping it's not tmv. Plants growing vigorously and better than but I'll keep an eye on it. I also transplanted the 3 seedlings. I added half new 707 in the 50 (prior soil was this same mix from last year) and transplanted one in that. One in a 10 gallon bag and the auto in a 5 gallon bucket. It will be interesting ingredients seeing how they turn out. All transplants went really smooth. 6/28 It's gonna be a hot one today. I haven't watered in over a week due to rain. Wind was whipping this morning! Looked like plants MIGHTVE been drooping but now that I think about it it was probably just the wind. ANYWAY I WATERED TWO AND A HALF GALLONS on the clones. That wind dries the bags out fast. Some still had some heft to them. Lately I've been going by my intuition which has seemed to be on point. All the seedling transplants look good and show no signs of stress. 6/29 The site was down so I couldn't update. Looks like it's gonna rain. It's noontime. This morning i found and killed two inch worms. There's not much damage so I'm wondering whether bt is necessary. Birds sit on the frame and dart I'm and grab them. I'll have to think on it. I also need to decide what I'm going to use for nutes this year. Don't need it yet. GMO's and sherb pie is putting out pistols everywhere. Same with the event horizon. Looks like I may have an early harvest this year. I certainly hope so. Still.....only did half what I did last year but with everything going on its all I can handle. 6/30 Site was down and it doesn't want to pet me upload my pictures 7/1 Trying to keep this updated. Need to spray bt. I'm seeing some damage. Not much but I need to get a handle on it now. Poured yesterday. Super sunny today. Plants seem to be flowering early this year while I still have a 2 seedlings that haven't shown their sex yet (they are fems but still). The clones are beginning to flower it looks like so I may have an early harvest this year. 7/2 WATERED THE GARDEN WITH 4 GALLONS. Spent some time looking over the plants and decided to hold off on the bt seeing as there isn't much damage. I spoke to a few shop owners and after seeing my garden this wad their advice as well. While watering I noticed red ants coming out of the soil of my GMO in the 30 gal. Some of these strains will be early finishers. The only time I've had stigmas like tjis was when I grew mendo breath and that was a super early harvest. Either way things are looking fantastic. The auto seedling finally showed a stigma. One seedling left (they should ALL be females) but I cant tell by the preflower yet. It looks female but I need to see that little white hair emerge to be sure.

30.10.2025 The last week has been a chilled grow. Before yesterday I turned up the light intensity to 450 and yesterday to nearly 500 mol. They are struggeling a bit but they hopefully will recover soon, bathing in sunlight and best conditions. Now the truth will appear and they will show their sexes. Actually I really hope that both will be female. What do you think? 01.11.2025 As predicted the big one is a male and as I changed my mind I seperated him from them and left him at my window in another room. Maybe he manages to go on so I can collect some pollum? What a pitty because he really is a very precious plant!

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

Been a rough week and you can see she鈥檚 struggling with the heat! It鈥檚 been over 95 degrees for a few days now and I鈥檝e been watering the daylights out of her. Kinda stunted from the heat.

The indoor plants are developing a mobile nutrient deficiency(newer growth is pulling from older leaves)in the lower leaves. Nutrients are being locked out(too much of one nutrient is locking out the others in the soil, or temperatures are too cold in the soil) or they are being tied up in solution whenever I mix the lotus nutrients(I鈥檓 adding bloom and boost into the same gallon, so maybe the chemicals are reacting with each other and becoming unavailable to the plant). On top of my nutrient dilemma, fungus gnats have found their way to my moist soil and are being a nuisance. From what I found they鈥檙e surviving off of my woody material in the soil and will soon try to establish it as a home so I鈥檝e got to go get some IPM. Outdoors is vibing with the pest pressure so I鈥檒l continue to let it do it鈥檚 thing.

Some nice branching. I can tell these girls are about to explode and bush out. We should be seeing some nice big bushy plants in a couple weeks.

Week 4 Veg Report - TrolMaster Chronicles 馃尡 What a week it鈥檚 been in the garden! We finally transplanted the Papaya Zoap into its final Autopot, and let me tell you, this plant is something special. Though her roots weren鈥檛 quite where I wanted them to be yet, the move was needed to help her catch up with the rest of the crew. She鈥檚 already looking fantastic in her new home, and I have no doubt she鈥檚 about to explode with growth in the coming days. Sometimes, you just have to trust the process, and I鈥檓 feeling like this is one of those moments. It鈥檚 almost as if the room itself is taking on a life of its own. 馃尶 In fact, I鈥檓 starting to believe that what we鈥檙e building here is something greater than ourselves鈥攖here鈥檚 this energy in the room, a feeling of everything coming together perfectly. I can鈥檛 wait to see how this journey unfolds! Dialing in the VPD with TrolMaster鈥檚 Tech Now, let鈥檚 talk VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and how I鈥檝e been keeping everything in check with the Tend-X and the incredible (DSH-2U) Humidity Station. VPD is crucial to plant health鈥攊t鈥檚 all about finding that perfect balance between humidity and temperature to optimize transpiration and nutrient uptake. The (DSH-2U) Humidity Station, connected directly to my humidifier, has been an absolute game-changer in this regard. With its real-time data and automation, it allows me to monitor and adjust the RH with pinpoint accuracy. Simple yet brilliant, the (DSH-2U) Humidity Station is keeping my room at the sweet spot I need. Whether I鈥檓 tweaking the settings from my phone while I鈥檓 out and about or just fine-tuning things while relaxing at home, this machine does it all. It鈥檚 like having an extra pair of hands in the grow room鈥攁nd when you鈥檙e managing something as complex as VPD, that鈥檚 invaluable! And yes, the TM+ Pro App鈥攍et鈥檚 not forget how awesome it is. I鈥檓 adjusting my grow room from the couch, the car, or even the bathroom 馃槣. I鈥檝e said it before, but this app is making growing easier than ever. Feeding the Girls: The Perfect Blend 馃尡 We鈥檝e upped the game by adding CaMg-Boost at 0.25 ml/L to the feeding schedule. Along with the 1 ml/L of the all-in-one liquid, this brings the TDS up to 320 ppm, with a pH of 5.99 and solution temperature of 24.8掳C. In the soil, readings are around 415 ppm, with temperatures hovering around 25掳C The plants are absolutely thriving, and I can already see the difference this new feed is making. I can鈥檛 help but have a bit of fun with this process鈥攊t feels like I鈥檓 spoiling them with the best of the best. And they鈥檙e rewarding me with beautiful growth and vibrant green color. You know how it is, with the right care and attention, these plants are truly becoming a masterpiece in the making. 馃尡 Shoutouts 馃挌 Big shoutout to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the phenomenal gear that鈥檚 making this grow smoother than ever. Also, massive thanks to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrition, and of course, to the community here on GrowDiaries鈥攜ou guys keep the energy alive! 馃尡 Last but definitely not least, shoutout to all the seed banks supporting this journey. You鈥檝e been a huge part of this process, and I couldn鈥檛 do it without you! Remember, for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and updates in real time, head over to my Instagram and YouTube channels @DogDoctorOfficial. We鈥檝e got tons of epic content lined up, and you won鈥檛 want to miss it! P.S. Let鈥檚 talk about the new Model One LED Bars鈥攖hese beauties are not only powerful but super efficient. I鈥檝e been able to dim them down, save on electricity costs, and still maintain an incredible PAR and spectrum. It鈥檚 all about fine-tuning the balance of power and performance, and these lights make it easy to get the best results while being eco-friendly. Whether you鈥檙e running them full throttle or dialing it back, you鈥檙e still getting optimal growth conditions for your plants. That鈥檚 the kind of innovation that takes your grow to the next level. 馃挕 Growers Love to all 馃尶馃挌

Day 50- All looking quiet good so far, no complaints. Fairly easy grow once you set up your plants training in veg. Only minor defoliation here and there when needed to expose bud sites to the light. Happy with the girls at the moment.

week intel: we are going through slowly stresses : just a little E.C stress around 1.4 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 700 ppm - 1.4 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster around 327 ppm - 0.64 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 255 ppm - 0.5 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : know your plant tolerance limit of E.C stress once you saw the very very little yellowing on tips of leaves , that's the sign to don't go further , never reach that limit if you want a high quality buds, in my case tolerance is 1.4 and i'll reach to that level only once a week to cause precision stress , love your plants and have a happy growing!

D64. We're at the start of the fifth week of flower, and today, the Purplematic moved out, and now the Gorilla girl is all alone in the tent. I also switched out her light from the big Kingbrite to the much smaller Viparspectra P600. I need the bigger light in my other tent, and even though the Viparspectra is a low-power light, I believe it should be enough, considering how small the Gorilla girl is. I could have put in one of the Greenception lights from my other tent, but it honestly was too much of a bother. ------------------------------ D66. Yesterday, I gave her 2.5 liters of water @ pH 6.5 with humic acid and calmag. Today, the green lacewing larvae (Chrysoperla Carnea) for combatting the thrips in my photo tent arrived, and I also dispersed a few of them in this tent. I haven't seen any thrips damage on the Gorilla girl, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to be proactive. I also did minor defoliation to increase light penetration and air circulation. ------------------------------ D68. Not much to report besides that this is one STINKY girl. She stinks up the entire lungroom, and I have ordered a new carbon filter. Her senescence is slowly increasing, and I suspect she will be done soon-ish, although I haven't even looked at her trichomes yet. ------------------------------ D70. We're at the end of the fifth week of flower, and chop day is getting close. Her senescence is progressing nicely, and today, I checked her trichomes for the first time and already found quite a few amber ones. She is coming down in a few days, but it won't be a large harvest due to her stunting. However, she smells fantastic, so I'm counting on a great smoke. I went to WAR today against the spider mites we have in our ornamental plants in the apartment. I sprayed all plants with my homemade pesticide (capsaicin, alcohol, horticultural soap.) since I had it at hand. If that fails to knock the spider mites back, I'll bring out the neem oil instead. The infestations aren't bad (yet), but it would suck to get mites into my tents, so better to be proactive. ------------------------------
