Had some severe drooping on one side of the plant. It was kind of weird, but most likely nothing. I was under watering quite a bit in an attempt to make sure I didn’t flush out the benes and nutrients of the super soil. Ironically, I might have killed all the benes. Lol. Either way, they’re getting about 2.5 gal every other day now. Growing strong. Untied the LST ties to move them and rearrange the greenhouse but then plot the dang trunk putting them back on, so i taped out up and left them untied. I’m sure it’ll be fine. Just did another spinosad treatment. Haven’t seen any more thrips since the first treatment 10 or so days ago. Saw a leaf hopper in there though 😡

Stardog room it is looking pretty good and is thriving. Hopefully get the results we asking for. Aya room up to now is giving pretty impressive results and it looks like they like the enviroment even tho its not fully equiped. After adding the c4 neet to celan the insides a little bit more and see how it will react.

Just a little LST every day and the canopy is nice and even with plenty of future bud sites.

The harvest wasn't the biggest. But high quality. I will increase the light density by adding CFL to the grow room. And test the nest grow how much I can push the yeild.

🌺 Week 1 Flower – Full Speed Into Bloom Grower’s Journal – BlueBerry by Zamnesia Seeds | Entry 006 The shift has begun, and our BlueBerry girls didn’t wait for permission. By the end of the week, they were already showing pistils popping and bud sites forming, not just the promise of flowers, but flowers beginning to shape up already. We’re still in what some would call pre-flower, but let’s be honest: These girls are on the move. ⸻ 🌱 Structure, Height & Symmetry Both girls are clocking in around 57 cm, with near-mirror symmetry in structure and development. Their growth is tight, lush, and beautifully balanced, like they were clones of each other. 📣 Shout out to Zamnesia This is what great genetics look like. Stability, vigor, and uniformity that shows their heritage proudly. ⸻ 🌍 Genetic Roots – A Quick Nod to the Legend We touched on it before, but it’s worth a reminder, BlueBerry is more than a name. It’s a landrace-influenced legend, blending Thai, Afghan, and Purple heritage into a profile that’s nostalgic, rich, and full of stories. This isn’t just a plant. It’s a revival of history, growing in a modern tent. ⸻ Nutrient Transition – Start Booster Out, Top Booster In As we move into flower, we’ve adjusted the feeding plan accordingly: 🌼 Current Feed (per liter): • Regulator – 0.15 ml • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • 💧 All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml • Top Booster – 0.25 ml (NEW this week) Why Top Booster now? Because with bud sites forming, we’re shifting the nutrient profile to support: • Phosphorus + Potassium demands • Bloom hormone signaling • Tight flower stacking It’s a small change, but the timing is everything. And the girls are loving it. ⸻ Environmental Stats – Riding the Heat Wave • Room Temp: 31°C • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa Yes, it’s a little high—but we’re monitoring closely. Plants are adapting well, leaves are still perky and expressive, and the structure remains lush. ✅ Coming soon: AC unit incoming to help dial this environment into a more stable and optimal range. Until then, the genetics are showing great resilience. ⸻ 💨 Airflow, Extractions & Gear Overview Even with summer heat, airflow remains dialed: • Exhaust: • 6” Spider Farmer inline with carbon filter — managed via Spider Farmer GGS Controller • 6” AeroFan inline with carbon filter — connected to TrolMaster Tent-X • Intake: • 6” fresh air intake, passive-cooled and filtered • 💡 Lighting: • Black Series 600 LED (Zone 1) • ThinkGrow Model One LEDs (Zone 2) Both managed by TrolMaster ecosystem, alongside: • 🧠 CO₂ Sensors • Temp/Humidity Probes • 💡 PPFD Sensors for real-time light data 📹 Video Room Tour Available We’ve uploaded a generic grow room tour this week, showcasing the entire grow setup, including gear, layout, controllers, and environment flow. ⸻ 🌸 What’s Next – Stretch & Structure We expect: • Stretch to continue in the next 10–14 days • Node stacking to tighten • Early trichome shimmer possibly appearing toward Week 2–3 This is a critical window for: • Monitoring internode spacing • Light height and spectrum adjustment • Fine-tuning VPD as flowering kicks into high gear ⸻ 🚫 What Not to Expect Yet: • No defoliation or major training—structure is too delicate right now • No aggressive boosts—flower development is just beginning • No topping or stress—focus is now on upward and outward bloom formation ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts – BlueBerries in Bloom This run has always been about balance: Classic genetics. Modern precision. Beautiful biology. With pistils out and the tent full of energy, it’s time to watch this legendary strain write her next chapter. From landrace roots to LED-powered flower—our BlueBerries are in full stride. Let them shine. 🌸✨ With love, care, and growing admiration, Your ever-faithful garden friend DD (DogDoctor)🌱💚 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

17.01. F15 The plants have now reached a height of around 80 cm, and the stretch is almost finished, slowly coming to an end. Bud production has clearly started, and overall the plants are looking very healthy, strong, and well structured. Over the past days, intensive defoliation and lollipopping has been carried out, but deliberately not all at once. Instead, a small portion is done each day to keep stress levels as low as possible. Due to the heavy branching, a large number of small side shoots had formed, many of which were removed to improve airflow and create a more open plant structure. Overall, the grow continues to run very smoothly and according to plan, once again strongly supported by the Biotabs nutrient system. One major advantage is that no CalMag, no dolomite and no additional corrections are required. Feeding is done strictly according to the Biotabs schedule, otherwise following an “only water” approach – with outstanding results so far. Powdery mildew is still present, but only at a very minimal level. Occasionally, 2–5 affected leaves appear and are removed immediately. In addition, the entire room and the plants are treated twice a week with a water–Purolyt solution. Compared to the previous run, there is a very noticeable improvement, and the effect is clearly visible. At this point, the grow is running fully on track, and the photos and videos speak for themselves.

Day 85 - first day of Week 13 and she is going into darkness for 48 hours. Hasn't been watered since 2 days. Even though she looks the least done of all three, her trichomes are now a good 20-30% amber with the rest milky and some tiny bits of clear. I checked her buds on the calyx all around, from top buds to middle to bottom. She really shows a lot of heavily swolen calyxes, which I have never seen like that. I can now add that to the things I learned/experienced: calyxes swell a lot before the plant is finished. Let's see. My Girl Scout Cookies does not look like she even has calyxes. Funny individuals. Happy wedding cake day, almost 😍 Day 88 - out of darkness. She was in there for 2,5 days. Opening the drying tent she gave off a really strong smell of hash 😍wow. She has some nice looking buds and looks def. more done, but below her dress, she has some light fluffy buds. I have hung all of them now in the dry tent, after I removed some of the bigger fan leaves. One part of it, I think I want to low and slow dry in the fridge. I am interested in finding out about the difference in taste, when a more wholesome profile is retained. For anyone interested, I can highly recommend this forum and this article: https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/drziggys-low-and-slow-drying-maximizing-your-harvest.366783 Another part I would like to use for fresh cut oil, also from here: https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/fresh-harvest-infused-cannabis-oil.363371/ As with everything else, I was obsessing about the perfect dry room & conditions. I bought a small tent (40x40cm), a small oszillating fan hung over the buds/on top of the tent. Due to size limitations, I have the filter on the bottom with the duct leaving the tent at the bottom connecting to an exhaust fan. Inside the tent I have a humidity sensor from an Inkbird Humidity regulator. Connected to that is a mini-dehumidifer and a humidifier. I have set it to 20°C (68F) and 50-55% humidity. I'm excited to see how long my dry will last this time. My first grow was drying way too fast in the middle of the heat wave last year with 30% humidity. The overview added to the pictures, I started making over Christmas. It was when I noticed, that I'm a so impatient, and that something must be wrong, especially in the first weeks. I get so obsessive, that I tend to overcare. Which she showcases beautifully in this overview. I hope this will calm me down the next time. Oh my haha Let's see what the final dry weight is. My guess is about 25-35g. Any other guesses? Happy Wedding Cake day 😇

Flowering day 44 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone ☺️. It gets more beautiful from week to week 😍👍. As usual from this phenotype, everything is black / purple again on this beautiful Pheno 😊. The buds are getting thicker and thicker and already smell extremely tasty 😍. A little PK 13/14 was added, increasing the Ec to 1.4. But that only remains for 1 week before it goes down again because plants are very small :-) Like every 12-15 days, the water was completely replaced and all electronic devices checked for safety 👍. The Ph / Ec measuring device was also recalibrated. Otherwise there is nothing to report for this week and we'll see you again with the next update ☺️👍.

VIDEO ADDED: DEC 29 2020! -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 27 2020! MORE COMING VIDEO?! -- Smell is starting to come down from the fresh cut, definitely has a great look to the bud as the cure goes on, have two 8 gram boveda packs in there after a few days with one that was WAY too big for it 😂 Brought down my Chocolate Mint OG in my other diary right now as well, way more weight to that last plant... probably more than both these Chem Bombs combined, great genetics over @Humboldt_seed_organization 😎 -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 23 2020! MORE COMING! -- DEC 19 2020 - Harvest Day Chem-Bomb Auto .. DONE. Step-Brothers ... CHOPPED. Buds.. TRIMMED. Giving them my first bud wash tomorrow! Already juiced the lemon, have the spring water, and off-brand baking soda because COVID has every place sold out of Arm&Hammer 😂 Dale: 50 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 15 Grams Trim/Larf = Total 65 Grams Wet Brennan: 55 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 12 Grams Trim/Larf = 67 Grams Wet Total Wet: 132 Grams (Buds/Stems/Trim) Looks like I'm getting in and around the "1 Ounce per Auto Plant" range with my basic soil/hand feed system. The CMOG from my other diary looks like it will be my first 1OZ plant when it dries. With my past experience of wet buds drying out to about half of bud weight, I'm hoping that they both come in JUST under an Oz a piece. Going to update with more pictures, going to take a couple days to dry and get a good weight and hopefully get somewhere close to the 64 grams of the ONLY sized Boveda packs I have right now 😇 -- UPDATE - Dec 20 2020 - Cure Day 😵😭 i once again got my hopes up by pulling the classic male "over-exaggerating" and all the wet weight came from the main stems. After 3 days or so of drying both plants together came in just under an ounce. The smell is great and I have no doubt it's quality bud but I need to up my density game somehow for sure. New nutrients or better set up, still very low-end with all my equipment as I've just slowly been finding affordable pieces to add as I go. Maybe more light? Feel free to hit me up below with ideas short of switching to a Hydro set up 😹 I can hardly afford my bags of soil so I definitely couldnt keep up with the financial costs of a Hydro set up yet 😓 Have had a few bowls of the dried/uncured bud and it's very nice, clean, and crazy good for being uncured at this point. Just the classic flower taste from the chlorophyll but the pineapple/tropical taste is coming through nice already. Final Stats: 26g Dried Bud 26g Trim -- Thanks for checking in! Will be updating soon and posting more pictures! Throw down a like and/or follow so I can return the favour 🙌 -- IG: @GlazedGrow (DM and let me know you're from Grow Diaries so i can follow back!)

6/11 day 55 day 56. Officially 2 months of growth. Somehow I've kept an auto flower in the vegetative stage for quite a bit of time. They are flowering and have stretched a ton. I will get actual measurements for each plant this Pheno #1 looks more indica (they all are) than the others. The pistils are shorter but more of them and the node spacing is a tighter than the others and she's stayed the shortest(least amount of stretch) and has thicker leaves(maple leaf style) her pistils started white and now have a pink tone to them and on closer inspection, some of the sugar leaves are purpling. This one could be expressing it more so because of environment. This week we've had lows and rains and cloudy weather. The other night it was in the low 40s, so in hindsight it might be environmentally expressed. Pheno #2 is the one that's been the most well rounded the whole time. Popped quick and has always been steady and not too tall and not too short. Her pistils are bright white like roots or an initial taproot. But the calyx are a deep deep purple. I believe this purple expression to be a genetic phenotypical expression rather than environment. The purple clashes with the white so beautifully. They just makes it all pop with the green. It honestly looks like a purple clover flower 😄
