1st photo We did the scrog, it helped us a little more to use as support to tie the branches with threads and manipulate them as we wanted, so we tamed it. but they kept growing as my colleague affirms

📆 Semana 5 La Grease Monkey está sacando todo su carácter esta semana 🐒 🔹 Desarrollo floral: Los cogollos han empezado a ganar tamaño y están cubriéndose de una fina capa de resina que promete mucho, los pistilos siguen alargándose y ya empiezan a mostrar tonos más intensos 🔹 Tamaño y estructura: Planta de porte medio pero muy compacta, las ramas están cargadas de flores y soportan bien el peso gracias a una estructura sólida 🔹 Condiciones ambientales: La temperatura se ha mantenido estable entre 24-26°C y la humedad ronda el 50%, ideal para favorecer el engorde de los cogollos sin riesgos de hongos 🔹 Nutrición: Siguiendo con el plan de XpertNutrients, aunque he notado que una de las plantas muestra una ligera carencia, por lo que he añadido un pequeño refuerzo de cal/mag para corregir a tiempo y asegurar que el desarrollo siga sin problemas 🔹 Equipos utilizados: Bajo los Adlite de Mars Hydro los cogollos están compactándose de manera espectacular, la luz intensa y bien repartida está marcando la diferencia en el desarrollo de las flores 🔹 Observaciones generales: La Grease Monkey tiene un aroma cada vez más intenso y pegajoso, todo apunta a que la resina será uno de sus puntos fuertes, seguimos sin incidencias graves y el cultivo avanza con mucha fuerza ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Just on day 22 now the video taken this morning had few issues very strong through week one, then week 2 I believe nitrogen toxicity as iv done lots and lots of research.... started watering twice in between each feed.. showing pistils now.. plants were tied down day 14.. I am happy with progress overall any tips welcome Pic of individual plant seems to be behind and leaf curling going to give water today and hopefully that will sort it out Day 23 - decided to do some defoliation as the growth since yesterday is very noticeable and starting to see signs of budlets at apex.. going to feed them tomorrow 8th strength grow, 8th strength bloom then by day 30 ish just quarter strength bloom is the plan then continue to up dose until half strength bloom at which point I’ll also add some boost.. any pointers appreciated 👌

Day 49. Those buds are now really starting to swell up. They also produce a very lovely smell🤩 A few days ago I also changed the light colour from blue and red to only red. We'll see how the buds will react to that.

Week 9 looking good getting ready to chop down both lsd25s the big bud and cherry cola still have time to thicken up for sure

04/03/2020 All are doing well. #5 (Male) has gotten a lot more sturdy, all other will be Given numbers when Repotted to final pots. Today is day 21 and will be first real week of veg at 18-6 will veg until mature enough to flower, 55 days maybe?, that will give me time figure out how many males and females I got to work with. I will most likely pollinate a branch of each female to try and isolate some cherry vanilla terps mmm! Ps. As soon as they are big enough I will get one clone of each female and male. (Future Breeding ideas). And save to compare with the next 5 beans out of my 10 pack. I'm dreaming of cherry cheese cake flavor, or cherry lifesaver.

New microscope came in, just in time to start checking trichs on CP. I never realized how hard it is to keep a steady hand for a proper shot, so hopefully I’ll have better focused shots soon... Appears they’re mostly clear, I like that couchlock high so I’m going for mostly amber but maybe partial harvest? I don’t know. Comments, suggestions, opinions, all are welcome here. For now I can wait.

Something is fckng with me heavy,I'm using tap/RO water 50/50. and still my cal mag issues are getting worse..I'm hoping that I will be able to finish this grow without big loss in potency or yield .

The flowering stage is progressing really well and I’m genuinely happy with how she’s coming along at week 7. The first brown pistils have already started showing on two of the branches, which confirms she’s deep into her flowering cycle now — right on schedule for Glue Gelato Auto. Next week I’m planning to significantly increase the flowering nutrients — particularly Big One and Top Candy, which should really push bud size and resin production from here on. Around the middle of the week I’ll also do a proper defoliation, clearing out the fan leaves that are blocking light from reaching the lower bud sites. The canopy has filled in nicely but it needs opening up to let those buds really fatten up. Water intake has increased quite a bit — I’ve stepped up from one liter to two, and even then the soil is nearly bone dry by early morning. That kind of uptake is a good sign — the roots are clearly healthy and the plant is working hard to fuel bud development. I’ll be watching closely to see if she needs even more as things progress. I’ve also been doing regular branch adjustments, gently repositioning the roped branches to keep the canopy level and make sure every top is getting its share of light. Nothing too aggressive at this point — just keeping things tidy. Week 7 feels like a critical stage now. Pushing the flowering nutrients harder from here should make a real difference in final bud size and density.

Woche 5 Anfang / Tag 31 Die Growers Choice Divas sind ready: Kleine Büsche, epischer Stretch & Blüte in Sicht! Hey Grower-Community 👋 Wir knallen in Woche 5 rein Tag 31 unter der Sonne und die beiden Growers Choice Queens haben das Training mit Bravour gemeistert. Aus den kleinen Sativa-Seedlings sind echte Mini Büsche geworden, die das Zelt fast schon ausfüllen. In 3–4 Tagen stelle ich auf 12/12 und schicke sie in die Blüte das wird spannend! Auf 16 Std. wurde schon reduziert! Die Canopy ist schon jetzt fast perfekt homogen, aber ab Blüte heißt es wahrscheinlich täglich justieren, um alles gleichmäßig zu halten. Immer eine Herausforderung, mit mehreren strains. Die Mädels im Detail: Mimosa Gusher (Growers Choice): Die hat durch den gezielten Far Red Boost (dep red / far red) richtig Gas gegeben von letzter Woche auf jetzt 24 cm gewachsen! Wahnsinn, oder? Sie musste sich kurz vom Lichtstress erholen (leichte Bleaching-Spuren, aber nichts Dramatisches), sieht aber jetzt wieder fresh und buschig aus. Die Struktur ist breit, Seitentriebe pushen das wird eine fette, zeit in der Blüte! The Real Amnesia (Growers Choice die echte holländische Clonedame): Steht bei 22 cm und hat den Fimming-Effekt perfekt umgesetzt. Kein übertriebener Stretch (noch), aber die Buschigkeit ist top – viele dicke Seitentriebe, die schon jetzt nach oben drängen. Die Sativa-Domina zeigt ihre Power. Beide haben das intensive Training (Fimming/Defoli/LST + Far Red) ohne Probleme weggesteckt Growers Choice Genetik ist einfach next level. Aktuelle Daten - Licht: Fluxshield 450C 40% (ohne Far-Red ) - pH: 6.20 - Temperatur: 24–25 °C - rel. Luftfeuchte: 64 %→ ab Blüte runter auf 55 % Ziel (besser für Bud-Entwicklung & Schimmelprävention) - VPD: Bis jetzt bei 0.8 sweet spot bisher - Abluft: Läuft jetzt durchgängig auf minimal (leise & effizient) - Gießen so alle 4 Tage je nach Bedarf Fazit dieser Woche: Die Growers Choice Strains (Mimosa Gusher & The Real Amnesia) haben sich zu kompakten, aber potenziell monsteryield Büschen entwickelt trotz intensivem Training und FarRed Stretch. 13 cm bei Mimosa in nur einer Woche! : Diese Genetiken vertragen alles. In 3–4 Tagen Blüte einleiten! Dann kommt der echte Test: Stretch Management, Canopy justieren und hoffentlich fette, trichom bedeckte Buds mit citrus-mint (Mimosa) und klassischem Amnesia Lemon Haze Aroma. Ich bin hyped wie lange nicht! Wer flippt gerade auch aus in seinem Grow. Wie startet ihr in die Blüte auf bio? Lasst's in den Comments wissen – immer her damit! 🌱💨 Stay High✌️ Bauer420🍁

Another successful grow! This strain has an intense, sweet aroma and resinous buds. Despite their small size, I'm happy with the result. ✌️

🌱 Lemon Cherry Gelato Week 5 — 12/12 From Seed Stage: Pre-Flower / First Flower (Transitional Week) This week marks the true transition point. The plants are simultaneously vegetating, stretching, and initiating flower signals. Growth is active in all directions, and structure is beginning to lock in. ⸻ 🌿 Plant Structure & Growth • Height: ~25 cm (± a little, depending on individual) • Overall shape: flat, round, bushy canopy • Internodal spacing: tight and controlled • Branching: strong, symmetrical, and responsive The plants are opening beautifully. Branches are asserting themselves naturally, with no forcing — just guidance. Uniformity across the girls is striking. Similar structure, similar pace, similar “language.” That consistency speaks volumes about both genetics and environment. ⸻ ✋ Training Focus (More Intensive, Still Gentle) This week we increased training in intention, not aggression: • Leaf tucking and bending only • No topping, no cutting • Leaves are guided under growth tips to promote lateral branching Response has been excellent. Each adjustment is followed by visible compensation and expansion. The plants want to branch — we’re simply making space for it. ⸻ 🌱 Root Activity Roots are now visibly emerging at the soil surface — a clear sign of: • Healthy root pressure • Active microbial and enzymatic processes • A plant fully connected to its medium This is exactly what we want to see at this stage. ⸻ ✨ Plant Health & “Mood” • Leaves: healthy green, good turgor • Stems: thickening, flexible, well-supported • Resin: early stickiness already present • Overall response: calm, strong, cooperative Everything indicates balance rather than stress. ⸻ 💡 Lighting Update — Under-Canopy Introduction By the end of this week, under-canopy lighting is being connected. Why now? • Plants are passing key developmental signals • We want them to recognize photons from below early • This helps guide structure, awareness, and later flower density We are not forcing PPFD. We are letting the plants grow into the light, learning where energy exists above and below. ⸻ Nutrient Adjustment — Cal-Mag Introduced This week we introduce Cal-Mag into the recipe. Reason: Our water source is a blend of: • Humidifier water • Rainwater Both are naturally low in calcium and magnesium. As demand increases during stretch and early flower signaling, supplementation becomes necessary to: • Support cell wall development • Prevent future deficiencies • Maintain structural strength during expansion This is a preventive, not reactive adjustment. ⸻ 🌸 Autoflowers × 12/12 From Seed For anyone still questioning this approach: These plants are the answer. Branching. Structure. Vigor. Uniformity. They are doing everything they should be doing — and doing it beautifully. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next (Week 6) • Continued stretch with stronger apical definition • Clearer pre-flower expression • Increased lateral dominance • Canopy filling outward rather than upward • Light demand gradually increasing Training will remain observational and responsive, not aggressive. ⸻ 🙏 Final Words Thank you to everyone following along, observing, learning, and sharing this space. All major observations this week are fully photo- and video-documented — from canopy to stem to soil — so you can see what’s being described. We move forward calmly, attentively, and with respect for the plant. Let them shine 🌱✨ Training Philosophy: Why Less Touch Often Equals More Structure At this stage, training is not about control — it’s about communication. Every time we touch a plant, it responds hormonally. Too much intervention can interrupt its own decision-making process, especially during transitional weeks like pre-flower. By tucking and bending instead of cutting, we allow the plant to: • Maintain uninterrupted growth momentum • Redistribute auxins naturally rather than abruptly • Strengthen stems through adaptive response • Decide where and how to branch based on light signals Less touch doesn’t mean less guidance. It means clearer signals and cleaner structure. When the environment is stable and the plant is healthy, minimal intervention often results in: • More uniform branching • Stronger symmetry • Reduced stress expression • Better long-term flower support In short: We don’t force shape — we make space, and the plant does the rest. Week 5 Veg/pre-flower | 8×8 Tent | Master Conditions 🌍 External Environment (Context) • Outside temperature: ~5 °C • Outside RH: 92–96% (very high humidity) • Strong seasonal pressure influencing internal stability ⸻ 🌡️ Internal Tent Conditions • Tent temperature: ~21.8 °C (noted drop due to cold external temps) • Tent RH: ~58% → Very good considering outside conditions ⸻ 💨 Airflow & Circulation • Primary airflow: Bottom → top → wall return • Pattern: Full-room vortex circulation • Additional fans: Central airflow to break blind spots and mix layers • Goal: No stagnant pockets, uniform VPD across canopy ⸻ 💧 Water Source & Rationale • Water: Dehumidifier water + rainwater • Base EC: force • Systems designed to support plant intelligence, not override it FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 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. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Stretch over, 2nd net in.

700ppm ff before 3ml of calmag. City water /bubbler. Ph 6.4-6.7. Silica (0-0-1) on water only day 5-7ml per. Feed x2 x w. Water or water cal/mag 3-4 ml/gal only l, 1-2 x w when needed.

This is my first grow and it’s all organic as well 👌🏽.I didn’t experience any deficiencies and besides the fact that they are pretty small I have to say I’m pleased. We will see what my total harvest will be I’m guessing around a quarter pound 4 ounces maybe little less 🤷‍♂️🏽

This 2 Liter is better than my 10L grow, probably a lot more 😅. My next grow i know what to do! 👌 its gonna be legendary.
