Hey now, so this week went very well! The genetics from Sweet Seeds have been very strong...some of the biggest and greenest leaves I have ever seen, and they seem extremely resistant to everything! I am still feeding twice per day, with CalMag, and Maxigro, with an EC of 1.4 total. I am still using the Mars Hydro SP250 which has been amazing. I did raise the light on day 33 as I am trying to keep the light approximately 18-24 inches from the canopy. I must say these genetics from sweet seeds have been amazing! These ladies have been extremely happy, healthy, and green, no matter what conditions I have put them through! I am still feeding Veg Nutrients by GH, but I will be switching to Bloom Nutrients and adding a Bloom Blooster either this weekend or early next week. I will be starting out bloom nutrients at about 1.2 EC., and then gradually raising until I hit 1.8 Thanks for checking me out, and Blaze On!!!

She is exploding!! Unfortunately can鈥檛 be at home as I鈥檓 away from work to take care of her. She needs some training but I don鈥檛 think I鈥檓 going to get home in time to do it.. may have to just let it do it鈥檚 thing. I鈥檓 glad I topped it though. I鈥檓 a little worried I鈥檓 going to run out of vertical space.

Finished the last week of flushing WOO! and its harvest time! I put them in 48 hours of darkness on Wednesday ready to crop for saturday, I will do a proper harvest report next week when I have them ready to go into curing jars along with some pictures and a full report, but I will add this some of the smells I was getting whilst trimming where unreal smells like pine, citrus, beef and a really faint sweet smell I cant put my finger on... I'm not saying that's 100% what it smells like but it smells similar to wild garlic. Well these b*tches took 14 long hours( could of done it quicker but we made a day of it ) all bud is trimmed and primed for drying then curing. Happy Growing 馃憡馃憤

2025/02/12: third flowering week is last Orgatrex/Bactrex shot week... I decided to lighten it as I can see lock or deficiencies again. I may flush another time : maybe rain water isn't as good as I thought? Anyway, trichromes are here!

8/23 All is well and a little distraction into oddness 8/25 satisfied with her progress in flower, no fade anywhere ever but this strain does not fade hard. Running her as long as she will go and keeping a steady supply of nuets to her, gotta love organic PS Zombie Quasimodo continues to build colas and first buds with a monster-cropped kind of look. Our little diversion into the odd is actually giving me ideas about monster cropping in the future, bud sites almost everywhere on the branches. pic later 8/28 D54 Still going and building bud Fed a 1 to 3 mix of biogrow and bloom nothing else The zombie is still kicking looking well if odd

This week went a lot better than last, although still not optimal. After last week's transplant they all did well, as you can see in the time lapse. They do all have one or more deformed leaves and a slight calcium deficiency but look otherwise healthy. Increased base water (RO+calmag) EC from 0.3 to 0.4, feeding 0.7EC in total. At the end of the week, the root systems looked very well developed and I transplanted them into their final 5L pots. Decent so far.

6/14 These are some thirsty girls. It seems the roots have filled the grow bags. The added wind makes it so that I need to stay on top of the water. I also need to spray again. When defoliating I saw some WPM on the very inside of a couple plants. I killed a few aphids on one plant. It seems if I just manually kill them it takes a while for them to repopulate. Also found a worm. I should bust out the BT but I am undecided considering I have the WPM as well. Foliar spray will probably be Dr. Zymes or lost coast plant therapy. Note LCPT seems to not do shit against aphids. Will update as the week progresses. UPDATE: Went back over after noticing strong wind. 15mph sustained wind had my plants going as sideways as possible. Luckily the vertical trellis and supports I made have stopped any major damage thus far. I decided NOT to put tarps up on the south which is where the wind is coming from. I hope I do not regret that decision. I plan to spray tonight. 6/15 Rained all night so I was unable to spray. Surprisingly no damage from all that wind. 6/16 Rained during the night and soil was still wet so didn't water this morning. I noticed markings on one of my transplanted seedlings. Found Thrips. I've never dealt with these before. I was planning on spraying BT but now I'll need to switch to something else. LCPT, Dr. Zymes, or spinosid (captain Jack's dead bug). Considering I have been dealing with PM I'll try to use something that will deal with both. I'll update as I go. I have defoliation I need to do on at least one plant. I also need to reevaluate my space and consider moving a couple plants that way it isn't to crowded. Another windy day but it's from the north west which is better as the tree line and tarps help.UPDATE Went back over and watered all plants. One plant had a slight droop which is surprising considering the two days of rain. The wind dries those grow bags out quick and it was sunny day. I watered the one that looked a "little" droopy first before applying Lost Coast Plant Therapy to the entire garden with a half gallon pressure sprayer. I hope this was a good idea. The droopy plant got treated last. We shall see tomorrow. 6/17 Everything looked great this morning. Lightly watered before feeding 2 gallons. Replaced microbe brew with kangoroots this time. Plants looked very happy. No negative results from the lost coast plant therapy. If anything they look better. My cage is getting overwhelmed. I need to remove at least two smaller plants. They are exploding in that 50gal and the tote. If I removed just those two I think it would work a lot better. I would have more room to work as well. 6/18 LCPT doesn't seem to effect aphids. I noticed a few on ONE plant and had been killing them manually. Population was only on literally a leaf or two. I think my follow up treatment will be Spinosid. It works great and hits pretty much everything. I've used it once already. Plants are incredibly healthy. Leaves were wet so it lightly rained last night. I lightly watered as the soil still seemed moist. Different size containers makes a consistent watering schedule difficult. UPDATE: Went over and watered tonight. Checked the one plant that had a few aphids for aphids and found like a dozen lady bug larvae instead! They survived the wind and had babies! These are just wild guys that are all over the place here. Couldn't find a single bug other than that lol. 6/19 I watered early this morning lightly as the soil was not totally dried out but then it started pouring. Plants looked great this morning. After the rain I'll do some defoliating and check for any remaining thrips. Later in the day we had torrential rain that knocked out my cameras. Plants look fine as you can see and all cams and motion sensors are back online. I have backups but still. 6/20 We had torrential rain but plants are fine. Watered what needed it lightly. Bags dry out fast and I've found I need to water often or some will droop. Found spiders that had killed a couple of my lady bugs. I killed what I could. Still need to defoliate and apply second application of whatever I decide.

WOW. She鈥檚 going to easily double. I鈥檓 going to have to do some serious bending. She鈥檚 developing quite nicely but I didn鈥檛 expect her to double based on her description. Maybe I have an odd pheno? Oh well, I鈥檒l do the best I can to control her.

1/4 - fed 1gal distilled water, 6.0pH. Starting RAW nutes next feeding. 1/6 - first RAW feeding. Came out rather low ppm so I may double my feeding chart for flower. Everything else is looking good. 72.7*F 5.8pH 818 ppm 4g BLOOM 0.7g Phosphorus 0.75g Kelp 0.55g Cal/Mag 0.5g ominA 2g Microbes Bloom Stage 1.25g Amino Acids 0.25g Enzymes 1/7 - dropped the AC Infinity controller to level 2 as an experiment overnight to see how temps will rise in both compartments. Light is at about 900ppfd a few inches below the lowest tops 1/9 - no issues with fan speed at 2! RAW feeding tonight. 70.5*F 6.1pH 1390 ppm 8g BLOOM 0.96 Potassium 1.5g Kelp 0.25g Cal/Mag 4.2g Microbes Bloom Stage 1.25g Amino Acids 0.25g Enzymes Also found a new way to mix my RAW nutrients without having them stick to the bottom...small landscaping pond pump! It gets the water moving nicely and I just drop the dry nutes in, mixes it for me and I can easily fine tune PH and test PPM without having to shake and take samples! Huge win. 1/10 - She's getting fatttttt!!! Long time to go but just sayin...my lady in veg needs at least 3 weeks so hopefully I'm not stepping on myself here soon!

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
