This is the start of week 4 of flower. Raised my light to the maximum height, have it on 100% full spectrum and 50% red and ir. Noticed some yellow tips with a little curling, thought it was light burn, but now think it may be over nutrients so I lowered nutrients to about 75% of what they recommended to see maybe it will help. Other than that not much else I did, besides letting these girls grow.

🍇 BlueBerry #1 & #2 — Week 7 Flower From Roots to Resilience Hello beautiful souls, welcome back to our BlueBerry adventure — and a warm hello to anyone just joining us! Let’s do a little recap before diving into the magic. From seed to soil, our girls were lovingly nurtured in Aptus Holland super soil, guided by biological balance and living nutrients. Through every stage — from seedling to lush vegetation, from first pre-flower pistils to dense, frosty colas — these BlueBerries have been nothing short of spectacular. Last week brought a challenge: Bud rot found its way into one of our beauties. But quick action, gentle hands, and a bit of intuition made all the difference. We removed the affected areas, adjusted airflow, and kept a close eye. This week, we’re happy to say no new signs of rot — just thriving flowers and crystal-coated buds glowing under the light. 🌞 Environmental Notes It’s been hot, really hot — outdoor temps reaching 45°C (around 110°F). To manage, we’re running the grow during night cycles, where we can keep the environment steadier. Even with heat challenges, the girls are handling it like queens — strong stems, thick stalks, and buds forming beautifully from top to bottom. 🌿 Feeding & Support Our current recipe remains the Aptus + Plagron combo: • Aptus Regulator, CalMag Boost • Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal & Green Sensation Together, they’re forming the symphony of this bloom — supporting cell structure, enhancing terpene expression, and encouraging thick resin development. One of the top buds was removed this week — not out of sadness, but as a precaution and an act of love. It was massive, too dense, and could’ve invited humidity trouble again. We took the chance to document it with photos, showing both the beauty and the lesson. 🌸 Reflections This grow has become a story of evolution — from the first transplant to the first flower, from trial to triumph. The inner canopy lights (ICL300) continue to shine beautifully, ensuring every level of the canopy is well-fed with photons. The plants are stacking heavy, leaning on the yo-yos for support, like true heavyweights in the ring. 💬 A Note of Gratitude A huge thank-you to Zamnesia for keeping the classics alive and to everyone following this journey — readers, growers, dreamers, haters, lovers, and the endlessly curious. Every comment, every question, every bit of love fuels this passion. We’ll keep learning, keep growing, and keep showing that even when nature throws a curveball, love and attention always bring balance back. Until next week — may your gardens be green and your buds be clean. 🌱💫 ⸻ 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Week 8 Day 1 11/11/2023 Water Change Day!! It is also that magic day where we start to check Trichomes to see when she is ready for CHOP CHOP.... Added: 36 gallons of Water SIlica-.5mil/Gal CALMag- .75mil/Gal GH FLoraMicro-3.8mil/Gal GH FlroaGro-2.8mil/Gal GH FLroaBloom-4.3Mil/Gal Liquid KoolBloom 2.5mil/Gal TPS SIGNAL- 3.0mil/Gal ORCA-.5mil/Gal Week 8 Day 2 11/12/2023 Just enjoyed that I am on the end run.. and how she is looking.. Week 8 Day 3 11/13/2023 Ground Hogs day!! Week 8 Day 4 11/14/2023 Today one of the buds got so heavy I had to tie her up. Week 8 Day 5 11/15/2023 Today I did nothing but take some photos... Getting ready for my Trip this is going to be fun.. Running right up to the wire on deciding to harvest or try and let it go for the week we are out of town. Week 8 Day 6 11/16/2023 Ground hogs day!! I am getting everything prepped for next week.. Right now it looks like I am going to need to go for the extra week or so... with that I am thinking that I will change the water as normal Saturday Morning the only difference this week is that I will probably do 46 gallons instead of 36 pushing everything to the top to ensure running out of water is not one of my issues while on Vacation next week. Evening update checked on them and the water was uncomfortably low so I added 10 gallons of water and accompanying Nutes. This is also the last shot for the grow of CALMag... Added: 10 gallons of Water CALMag- .75mil/Gal GH FLoraMicro-3.8mil/Gal GH FlroaGro-2.8mil/Gal GH FLroaBloom-4.3Mil/Gal Liquid KoolBloom 2.5mil/Gal TPS SIGNAL- 3.0mil/Gal ORCA-.5mil/Gal Week 8 Day 7 11/17/2023 Well the Trichome check this morning settles it, She need more time.. So with that said.. Must deploy my Contingency Strategy that I designed just incase I ran into this Scenario, biggest worry fluctuation of the PH level as the water goes down over the week.. 1. Change water Tomorrow as Schedule and enter Week 9 Nutes- Instead of 36gallons add 46-48 gallons 2. Balance system to 6.0 3. Check PH on Sunday Morning balance to 6.0 4. Check PH on Sunday evening before getting on road balance to 6.0 5. Hope everything looks good when I get back.

Had a tough time mitigating heat in the summer when this grow took place. Was also not able to care for the two plants I had as best i could due to a lack of time. Harvest really suffered because of it but still got some great results. Didn't weigh it but i filled 12 32 oz mason jars. 6 Of which were from my cloned plant. 4 were God's Vagina and 2 were a mix of both buds.

Ух! 😅 Этот цикл мне показался особенно хлопотным. Как видно из названия репорта, в этот раз я осваивал метод Scrog, и тут с самого момента установки возникли некоторые сложности. В первую очередь нужно продумать систему полива под сеткой(возможно автоматизировать), в этот раз мне приходилось лить маленькими порциями для равномерного распределения жидкости по горшкам, что называется "кормить с ложечки". Сетку нужно устанавливать чуть раньше, и ниже на 5-7см. Ну и наконец я немного испугался сильного роста на цвете(все-таки сативный гибрид), можно было позже на неделю-две переводить на цветение. В процессе работы со скрогом меня не покидало забавное ощущение, что я приходил на грядку на своём огороде😝 Главное, я разобрался как это работает, и в будущем учту свои ошибки, тем более на качество урожая они никак не повлияли. Ну и как всегда - благодарности-обнимашки😍: SumoSeeds за интесный стрейн, GD-team, и всем-всем-всем кто заходил и комментировал этот дневник, вместе мы совершенствуем наше мастерство. До конца лета ухожу на каникулы, надеюсь появятся интересные идеи для нового цикла. Спасибо, что были на связи, и будте здоровы 🙏 ! 💚💛❤️ !

Ultima semana solo riego con 3 ml De enzimas por litro de agua, esta etapa es un riego final, donde se puede esperar a que se seque el sustrato. Una vez las hojas no muestren signos de vida, o estan muy amarillas, ya no cumple función para realizar la fotosíntesis, dejar la planta mas tiempo ahí es perdida de recursos. Es el momento ideal para poder cortar. NOTA FINAL: Cherry Lemon AUTO: Es una genética compacta pero productora, con manifestación de antocianinas ante los cambios de clima, mas calor es igual a un color de las inflorescencias mas lilas. Mas Frio, y el color central tiende a ponerse morado, a un color purpura y vino tinto, propio de las genéticas Cherry. Tonos de aromas cítricos y dulces en el aire. AK ULTRA: Es una genética bastante sativa, con una floración larga, esta planta todo lo que le puedas dar, se lo va a comer , asi que hay que tener precaución a la hora de administrarle la comida semanalmente. Para verano es una genética excelente, y puede llegar a dar bastante producción, dentro del indoor llegando a 1.20 metros 1.30. Tolerando mucho el calor y la sequia. Flores densas y compactas, ramas laterales abundantes , aromas a limón y Diesel por el aire. En lo que respecta a la alimentación de las sales, tantos A+B y C . Las autoflorecientes con las solución A ( N 4- P 2- K 3) tienen una buena base de nitrógeno, calcio y magnesio, lo necesario para que la planta crezca hasta la semana 5 sin necesidad de cortar el nitrógeno de golpe. Sino que aplicando la mitad de la dosis cuando la planta entre en floración. Durante las primeras dos semanas se recomienda tirar la mitad de la dosis utilizada en vegetación + la solución B que es la de flora ( N1: 5 P- 5 K) luego de la tercera semana ya se puede aumentar la dosis de 2ml x Litro en cada riego a la semana. Por ejemplo, si la planta en la semana come 800ppm. El primer riego debe aumentarse cada 1ML en agua base de osmosis 0.045ppm hasta que la solución marque 400ppm - ML. A los tres días repetimos hasta lograr 400pm-. El próximo riego si no vemos excesos, se puede diluir un poco mas de ML x L hasta un máximo de 5ml de la formula B. Luego de 3 riegos con sales, es recomendable regar con agua lo mas limpia posible o usar enzimas para que haya un arrastre de las sales y el sustrato quede mas liviano. Dejando de aplicar sales y regando solo con agua 2 semanas antes de la cosecha. En la solución C para auto florecientes en todo el cultivo con un NPK de 1:1 5:1 . Las dosis acá fueron mas altas empezando de 2.5ml hasta 6.5 ml x Litro de agua. Aquí no hay sobre-fertilización, se puede agregar tranquilamente hasta 4 riegos en dosis bajas , y ya en el quinto riego es recomendable usar solamente agua. Debido a que es una formula que expreso una pequeña falta de PK, se pueden agregar aditivos ricos en Fosforo y potasio para potenciar el cultivo. También como la solución C, es recomendable dejar de fertilizar dos semanas antes de la fecha de corte o cosecha , cualquier tipo de aditivos minerales, dejando así un sabor mas suave a la planta. OJO: Si ud va a usar este producto con fines medicinales como aceites y extracciones, es recomendable que limpie bien el sustrato, Cortando con la fertilización 10 a 15 días antes de cortar la planta. De lo contrario, puede seguir alimentando la planta hasta el ultimo de sus días. Pero el sabor no será el mismo y arruinará el trabajo de meses solo por un capricho de querer tener mas producción. Pero si a ud no le molesta, puede fertilizar hasta el ultimo dia de vida de la planta. TIP: Si tiene la posibilidad de usar enzimas por cada 3 riegos de sales minerales, seriá lo mas perfecto para la planta. Luego puede volver a fertilizar tranquilamente. Aqui un ejemplo. 💧( AGUA) Semana X Fertilizacion (🔴 ) Fertilizacion (🔴 )Fertilizacion (🔴 ) 💧( AGUA) O enzimas. Repetir, dos semanas antes, parar de fertilizar.Y regar solo las proximas dos semanas con agua.

Sie kommt jetzt langsam, als der Würfel bis unten eine Wurzel hatte habe ich sie in den Becher gesetzt, die ersten Tage passierte nichts ich dachte ich hatte sie vermasselt… Allerdings sehe ich heute nach 4 Tagen wie sie sich zum Licht streckt :) Sie ist ca 10 cm & ich hoffe sie kommt weiterhin durch. Ich habe diese Woche kein enhancer benutzt. Bis nächste Woche :)

I'm glad that this grow is slowly coming to an end. There are currently 2x Sherbelato Cake and 1x Ayahausca Purple & 1x Candy Bubatz in the Tent. Next time I will only grow in water.

Der Grow ist nun durch , bin mit dem gesamten Verlauf sehr zufrieden. Es gab nie Probleme, alles lief nach Plan. Es wurde kein großes Entlauben, noch Topping oder sonstiges gemacht, lediglich die großen Blätter wurden entfernt. Gesamtgenommen , würde ich es wieder so machen, es war einfach ein ruhiger entspannter Grow. Die Lampe von Greenception, der Dünger von Biotabs, und auch der Blumat, funktionierten super in einer Symbiose zusammen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis nicht riesig ist, ist es wie in der Vorwoche bereits erwähnt für mich absolut in Ordnung. Da ich nicht viel benötige und es mehr ein Hobby ist . Die gesamte Lichtleistung habe ich durch 3 geteilt, es sind schließlich 3 Pflanzen im Zelt, damit man ein korrektes Ergebnis erhält. Ich danke für die Free Seeds @SuperSativaSeedsClub, und kann Sie bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen. Rauch und Endergebnis werde ich selbstverständlich nachliefern. Das Nassgewicht beträgt 145gramm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The grow is now finished, and I am very satisfied with the entire process. There were never any problems; everything went according to plan. No major defoliation, topping, or other interventions were done; only the large leaves were removed. Overall, I would do it the same way again, as it was simply a calm and relaxed grow. The lamp from Greenception, the fertilizer from Biotabs, and the Blumat system worked perfectly together in symbiosis. Even though the result isn't huge, as I mentioned last week, it's absolutely fine for me. I don't need much, and it's more of a hobby. I divided the total light output by 3, as there are 3 plants in the tent, to get an accurate result. I thank SuperSativaSeedsClub for the free seeds and can recommend them without hesitation. I will, of course, provide updates on the smoke and final results. The wet weight is 145 grams. Die letzte Woche lief ebenfalls alles glatt. Habe das Wasser runter gedreht, und die Pflanze von ihren Resten zehren lassen . Bin sehr zufrieden, und bedanke mich bei SSSC für die gesponserten Samen.

***Note that I started to count the days when I placed the seeds between paper towels. The seeds were planted 3 days later and sprouted from the ground 2 days after being planted. D80 (13/05/2021): I'm looking at the trichomes every other days. Glue Gelato is starting to show amber on top buds. No amber for Banana Kush and Gelato. This time I will chop them all at the same time so the one I will rely on is the Glue Gelato. As soon as she is ready, I will harvest them all. Banana Kush and Gelato would probably need more, but in term of logistic, I need to harvest all my plants at the same time. D83 (16/05/2021): Not ready yet. I'm checking trichomes closely! 😬 - Light: the lights are at 100% and at 12 inch form the plants. - Temperature: during the day: 24-25C ; during the night: 20C. - Humidity: the humidity is maintain around 46-48% all the time. - Air circulation: There is an oscillating fan on the ground, one fixed fan pointing on top of the canopy and one fixed fan to help cool the lights. - Water: I gave water every other day or when the ground feel dry or the pots feels light. - ***IPM: I never mention it but I'm using nematodes pouch as an integrated pest management. I had trouble with pest in my first grow and I learned from it. That's the only thing I do for pest and of course watching closely and regularly at my plants 😊
