Good day to all my friends and visitors here on GD. After this week end, we will cut the first Tropicanna XL plant:D Middle this week we changed the reservoir water for a fresh solution. This plant will not get a flush before harvest, it's the first time i'm not flushing a plant for the cut but you know only two of the four girls are ready to chop and it's not possible in my RDWC to seperate feed them. So yes it's kind of an experiment for me. Something's not right with my fresh solution or the plants get root rot or something but the girls starting to show K deficiency...good that the plants are on the finish line :) The SE7000 runs at 540 Watt and about 33cm from the canopy and is doing an astounding job. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ A shout out to Sweter Seeds for the gift of genetics, this cultivar really rocks 💪☘️💚 https://sweetseeds.es/en I also want to thank Jungle Indabox nutrients for supplying me with their excellent nutrients line: https://www.jungleindabox.cz/en or https://numazon.cz/homepage/ That's it friends, I hope to see y'all next week, bless.

Going well

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. It was a good week for the ladies, all the toppings are complete, and now I am just focusing on some LST to try and keep all 8 tops level on all the ladies. Today is day 42 and I just removed the milk crates that all of the ladies were sitting on to give them more vertical space. I am still feeding GH nutrients, silica, cal mag, and maxi grow. I will transition to flower nutrients approximately one week after flipping to flower. I have found that it is important to continue feeding plenty of Nitrogen through the stretch. The only way I would transition sooner is if I was running out of vertical space. Still very happy with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 69% and the plants seem very happy and healthy. The heat and humidity are finally letting up in my region so it is nice to be able to open some windows and drop the temp outside the grow tent. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

This is exactly the 🇲🇦 morroccan 🇲🇦 way of sifting resin from kief. Traditionally, apart the hand rubbing method, dry sifting through a mesh is the most used way to obtain resin, from 🇦🇫 Afghanistan 🇦🇫 or 🇳🇵Nepalese 🇳🇵 Mountains to 🇲🇦 Morocc 🇲🇦 Rif passing through Bekaa valley in 🇱🇧Lebanon 🇱🇧. The average size of meshes used vary from 90 to 180 microns and are mostly made by silk and for this reason uneven. I think the most productive ways to sift are Dry Ice and  rotating pollinator + CO2, I've tried a DIY pollinator built by a friend and it can reach up to 20/25% of resin extracted at 120 microns and 15% at 90 microns. But smell and taste don't reach that traditionally extracted but this is another story. Morroccan way is good compromise between a stashbox or more evolute methods. It requires less than 10 dollar of expenses. You need: a basin or pot  without handles a heavy-duty plastic bag that contains the basin a pair of chopsticks a good 120 microns net an elastic band tape Kif or trim q.s. Here is the link where I buy my meshes. Very high quality, customable size and material (steel or nylon) and length and very kind vendor on AliExpress https://a.aliexpress.com/_uwfQzq Drum for 3 minutes. .....perhaps you will find that you have an innate talent as a drummer, throw the shit away and put your head right......

Been amazing grow guys took 12 days to dry to my liking. Buds were very dense and sticky icky

This strain was wicked fun to grow. Yield is amazing. One plant filled a 30 gallon tote once dried. WPM and leaf septoria was horrible this year but this strain seemed to do just fine. Very resilient. Grew short and stout like an indica. Covered in trich's and smells amazing.

I am going to start my new week 24-11-2019 because the soil is telling that it needs water and it's technically the beginning if the new week so why not. If you look at the still Pic the leaves look like a deficiency or maybe light burn I did not notice that earlier today. I have si ce raised the light and I will check tomorrow to see if the color of the leaves have turned green all through the veins where there is some signs of yellowing. If I see change the maybe both concerns have been addressed because I also increased the ppm's in feeding.

Hi guys Its the 3rd week of Flowering its doing much better than in Veg! The smell is starting to get intense :) Im slowly adding some Big Bud into the nute mixture as it gets more flowers The light is on 100% about 300W‘s

Week 18 (Week 10 Flower) Grow Diaries Report – Part One: Wrapping Up the Journey 🌱 Pre-Harvest Reflections This week has been a mix of emotions as we approach the final chapter of this grow. Let’s talk about why we made the decision to pre-harvest portions of the Gorilla Melon and Papaya Zoap. While both plants have been incredible performers, a few buds on each started showing early signs of bud rot. This is an unfortunate but natural challenge when growing such dense and resin-packed colas. The decision to harvest those sections early was made to protect the rest of the crop and ensure quality and integrity for the remaining flowers. Vigilance is key in a packed garden like ours, and careful monitoring ensured the rest of the room remained safe and thriving. 🌈 A Symphony of Colors and Frost The grow room is a visual masterpiece this week, with shades of deep purples, vibrant greens, and golden hues taking over. The fading is absolutely breathtaking, showcasing the natural progression of the plants as they near the end. Combine this with the insane level of frost blanketing the buds, and it’s safe to say this is one of the most beautiful gardens I’ve ever cultivated. ✨ Spectrum Management: The Secret to Stunning Results The current lighting setup is a game-changer: • 50% whites to maintain overall balance and structure. • 100% reds for enhanced ripening and color development. • 100% UVs to boost resin production and amplify those trichome levels. The ThinkGrow LEDs paired with the TrolMaster spectrum control system have truly unlocked the garden’s full potential. Watching the plants sparkle under this setup feels like seeing stars on a clear night—magical and unforgettable. 🌟 Quick Recap: The Journey So Far From seed to this incredible moment, this grow has been a testament to precision and passion. From germination to veg and through flowering, every detail was carefully tuned, every decision made with intention. Along the way, we navigated challenges like pests, mold, and environmental shifts, proving that adaptability and dedication are essential. And here we are, ready to bring this journey to a close with nothing short of perfection. Week 18 (Week 10 Flower) Grow Diaries Report – Part Two: The Tools That Made It Possible 💡 ThinkGrow LEDs: These lights have been the heartbeat of the grow, delivering unparalleled spectrum control and efficiency. The ability to fine-tune every stage of the plant’s life cycle has been a game-changer. 🌬️ AeroFan System: Consistently circulating air while keeping the environment balanced and mold-free. The AeroFan’s role in preventing hotspots and ensuring even coverage cannot be overstated. 📱 TrolMaster System: The brain behind the operation, the TrolMaster system has provided unmatched control and precision. From monitoring temperature and humidity to dialing in lighting and CO2, it has truly transformed how I grow. 🏕️ Tent-X Setup: The foundation of the grow, this tent provided the perfect space for controlled cultivation. Its design maximized efficiency while keeping everything neat and manageable. 🌡️ Sensors and Monitors: Every parameter was tracked with pinpoint accuracy. From VPD to soil moisture, the sensors ensured every need of the plants was met in real-time. Each tool, piece of gear, and setup component has worked seamlessly together, creating a true ecosystem of excellence. This grow wouldn’t have been the same without them. Ending with Gratitude and Excitement To the community: thank you for joining me on this incredible journey. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or just tuned in, your support has been everything. From the lovers to the critics, you all push me to grow (pun intended). To the sponsors: ThinkGrow LED, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, Pro-Mix Soil, and everyone else involved—your products are not just tools; they’re inspirations. And finally, to these plants: you’ve taught me patience, resilience, and the beauty of the process. 🔥 Next Up: Stay tuned for the epic harvest and a deep dive into the final results, from trichomes to yields and beyond. The end is just the beginning of the next adventure. 🌟 Let’s finish this grow strong! 🌱✨ Growers Love.

Flowering week 6. Ph 5.9 Ec boosted up to 1.70 on fd 36.

Tenth week of Veg for most of the girls. Start of second week of flower for Purple Punch. The Sour Diesels are now beginning to flower. Changed Purple Punch to Super Thrive nutes for flowering and will do so next week for the Sour Diesels. Thanks for looking in. See you next week. Let me know what you think.

Hi all, Welcome to my🍌💜👊 week update Thank you so much for all support on this bananas journey. Much appreciate all your likes, follows and comments. 🙏💚❤️💜 Week 14 Jan 15- Jan 21 Flushing and preparation for harvest 😁 on Jan 15 feed girls for the last time with nutrients. It was reduced dose by 60% 5ltr no runoff. Following morning topped up with 6ltr of ph down and only fish shit. Runoffs PH 6.2. Second watering Jan 18 6tr and 7ltr on Jan 21. It was last watering. Week went very well. No white pistils hairs on Athena for a good while and barely few left on Xena. Many buds have different shapes and colours but all of them are equally hard as rocks, sticky and smelling so deliciously. This week trichomes development was just like I wish for. Just milky and amber in play Status on Jan 22. Mostly of buds 20-50% amber. It's just perfect for my needs🤤 On Jan 21 lights were on for the last time and girls will be harvested after 48 or 72h of darkness. Stay tuned for the final week update! Peace and love brothers and sisters ✌️💚👨‍🌾 Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/banana-purple-punch-auto https://plagron.com https://www.biobizz.com/ https://fishheadfarms.com/

Sept 16th, Finally found some time to work with her again. She nearly got blown over last week. Time to thin her out a bit. She has braches growing into eachother and lot of popcorn sprouts in the center. I removed rhos to focus energy on outer buds and max out airflow. Weather has been really damp and cold but she doesnt seem to bother. Hoping for some more sun to see this one finish

🌱 Nectar Drip — Week 11 (GD) | Week 5 Flower (12/12 From Seed) 🔁 Quick Recap — How We Got Here We started this run 12/12 straight from seed, allowing each plant to express itself naturally without forcing a vegetative phase. From the beginning, the intention was simple: • Minimal intervention • Let structure build organically • Observe before acting As the weeks progressed: • Plants transitioned smoothly into flower • Structure began stacking early • Phenotypic differences became very clear Now here we are — mid-flower, where everything starts to reveal its true character. ⸻ 🌿 This Week — The Garden Speaks This week is all about confirmation. The plants are telling us, very clearly: Less touch, more trust. • Untouched plants → massive, explosive structure • Trained plant → slower development In a 12/12 from seed run, this is a key lesson: 👉 Plants behave as if they are already on a clock 👉 Every stress = time they don’t have And they showed it. ⸻ ❄️ Frost Report — “Queens on Frost” What we’re seeing now is not just resin… it’s intention. • Trichome production is fully activated • Sugar leaves are coated • Bud sites are stacking with visible resin heads early This is that stage where: You stop “hoping” for quality… and start confirming it ⸻ 🌡️ Environment & Uptake We kept everything consistent this week: • Temps: ~28°C • RH: ~65% • Strategy: Leaf VPD-driven approach • Water intake: ~1.8L per plant/day Even slightly above “textbook” temps, the balance works because: 👉 Humidity supports transpiration 👉 Plants are actively drinking and processing Result: • No stress signals • Strong metabolism • Consistent nutrient uptake ⸻ 💡 Light Intensity — Reading the Canopy Light intensity across the canopy is currently ranging between 800 and 1500 PPFD, depending on plant size and proximity to the light. This variation is intentional — taller plants naturally sit closer to the source, receiving higher photon density, while smaller ones remain in a slightly softer zone. Rather than forcing an even canopy, we’re allowing each plant to find its own optimal exposure. The key observation this week is simple: they are loving it. No signs of light stress, no bleaching — just strong uptake, active drinking, and increased resin production. It’s a good reminder that in this stage, light is not just about intensity, but about how each plant interacts with it individually. ⸻ 🍃 Defoliation — Controlled Chaos This week we introduced defoliation. Let’s be honest: It went a bit deeper than planned. But still within reason. What we did: • Opened inner canopy • Improved light penetration • Increased airflow through stacking sites What to watch now: • Recovery speed • Bud swelling response over the next 3–5 days In this style of run, defoliation is not about control — 👉 It’s about guidance without interruption ⸻ Nutrient Talk — pH Control (Lemon Kick vs pH Plus) Let’s make this one educational. 🍋 Lemon Kick • Organic-based pH regulator • Naturally lowers pH • Adds a mild buffer effect What it is: Gentle More “biological-friendly” Works well in living or semi-organic setups What it is not: Not instant/aggressive Not ideal for large corrections ⸻ ⚗️ pH Plus • Mineral-based pH increaser What it is: Fast Precise Stable adjustments What it is not: Not organic No added biological value ⸻ 🧠 Takeaway We’re not choosing sides — we’re using tools. • Small corrections → Lemon Kick • Bigger adjustments → pH Plus Balance ideology. ⸻ 🌳 Structure & Canopy • One plant clearly dominating in size • Others following similar stacking patterns • Internodal spacing tightening • Bud sites forming consistently across the canopy Everything points to: 👉 Strong mid-flower foundation ⸻ 🔮 What To Expect — Next Week Now it gets serious. Expect: • Bud swelling phase to begin • Increased density in existing sites • Even heavier trichome production • Possible first signs of terpene shift Also: 👉 Plants will tell us how they felt about the defoliation 👉 This will define how much we intervene again (or not) ⸻ 🤝 Gratitude — From Grower to Growers To everyone walking this path with us: • The OGs who’ve been here since day one • The new eyes just discovering the journey • The supporters, the silent watchers, and yes — even the critics If it crossed our path, it shaped the energy. To: • The genetics behind these queens • The nutrition supporting the run • The GrowDiaries platform for hosting this journey • And the entire community pushing the culture forward From grower to growers — respect. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

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.

Week 7 in the comedy of my garden journey, and my green squad has decided to embrace the art of being vertically challenged – they're like the plant version of a pocket-sized superhero team. "Short and sassy" seems to be their new motto. In an attempt to uplift their spirits, two of the ladies scored a new, roomier 3-gallon final home – it's like they moved from a cozy apartment to a botanical mansion, hoping a change of scenery would inspire some vertical ambition. They're probably comparing their new homes and deciding who has the fanciest leafy chandelier. However, the plot thickens as one plant emerges with a leafy fashion statement that's a bit too avant-garde – discoloration that could rival a Picasso painting. Is it a magnesium deficiency or an oxygen rebellion? The plant might as well be holding a tiny protest sign that says, "Give me answers or give me wilting!" Playing the role of a plant detective, I cranked up the fans, turning my grow tent into a botanical wind tunnel. It's like a leafy hurricane is sweeping through, and my plants are either loving the breeze or planning their escape. As a bonus, I threw in a leafy spa day – deformation and topping, because who doesn't love a good horticultural makeover? But wait, there's more! In the midst of the botanical sitcom, the humidity decided to play the villain in this leafy drama. It's like the humidity gauge is staging a rebellion of its own. So, armed with misters and perhaps a leafy motivational speech, I'm on a mission to turn my grow tent into a tropical paradise and give my plants the humidity vacation they didn't know they needed. Week 7 – where the plants are short, the homes are upgraded, the leaves are avant-garde, and the humidity is throwing a curveball. Stay tuned for the next episode of "The Green and the Humid" – because in the world of my garden, every week is a new episode filled with laughs, surprises, and a touch of leafy chaos! 🌿🌧️🎭

Habe die Pflanzen diese Woche etwas mehr gegossen, weil sie immer den 2.ten tag nach dem gießen die Blätter hängen ließen. Dünge jz auch ein wenig mehr. Bin sehr zufrieden bis jetzt

Vegetationswoche 6 - 26.05. – 01.06.2026 In der sechsten Vegetationswoche bekam die Blue Sunset Sherbert zunächst vor allem Ruhe, um sich vollständig an das neue Beet anzupassen. Nach dem Umtopfen und dem Toppen lag der Fokus bewusst darauf, die Pflanze möglichst stressfrei anwachsen zu lassen. Im Laufe der Woche entwickelte sie sich sichtbar weiter. Besonders die Anzahl neuer Triebe nahm deutlich zu und auch die Blattmasse wurde spürbar dichter. Trotz der positiven Entwicklung blieb das Höhenwachstum eher gering. Insgesamt wuchs die Pflanze nur etwa vier Zentimeter. Dafür entwickelte sich die Blue Sunset Sherbert sehr kompakt und buschig. Die Internodienabstände blieben kurz und die Blätter wirkten klein, kräftig und auffallend dunkelgrün. Insgesamt machte die Pflanze jedoch einen gesunden und vitalen Eindruck. Vermutlich spielen mehrere Faktoren gleichzeitig eine Rolle: - die nährstoffreiche neue Living Soil - hohe Temperaturen zwischen 22–28°C - niedrige Luftfeuchtigkeit um etwa 50% Gegossen wurde in dieser Woche ein- bis zweimal, da die Erde durch die Temperaturen vergleichsweise schnell austrocknete. Zusätzlich wurde leichtes Low-Stress-Training mit Clips ausprobiert. Die Triebe erwiesen sich allerdings bereits als überraschend stabil, wodurch die Clips teilweise Druckstellen verursachten. Ein Seitentrieb wurde dabei leicht angeknackst und hängt aktuell nur noch teilweise am Pflanzengewebe. Bisher zeigt der Trieb jedoch noch keine vollständigen Schäden und bleibt weiterhin vital. Insgesamt entwickelt sich die kleine sehr gut. Die Pflanze wächst langsam, aber gesund und wirkt stabil. Besonders das kompakte Wachstum und die zunehmende Verzweigung könnten später sehr interessant für den geplanten SCROG-Aufbau werden.
