Been a minute since I’ve posted. Quick update as I’m finishing rebuilding the grow room. Feeding in pure coco 1 time a day 600ml…they are in gallon pots. They’ve doubled in size in 2 weeks! Almost done, low rise flood tables will be here next week and let’s hope for set it and forget it results 🤞

Been too busy to update the last few weeks, but they’re surviving longer then I expected. When I received my new light I did not take in consideration of the heat output and within the first night of use the tent reached a scorching 88 degrees

Looks like she recovered alright from the little dry patch in the watering schedule. Her leafs look healthy and vital, so I decided to top her on day 15 - maybe a day or two too early, we'll see. But I didn't just top her, I also removed the two top fan leafs - I'm aware, it's a tricky balance between the loss of energy produced from the leafs vs. giving the new growth underneath more light to stimulate growth. She'll be alright, I've got a good feeling about her! She also received a layer of Mulch on top of the first soil layer. The idea: aiding the microbial life on the soil surface and at the same time reduce evaporation to prevent the top soil layer to dry out too quickly.

my ardent hello to everyone!)) I generally have a weakness for color) and I am especially fascinated by varieties that change color. I really like this visual effect. I had to try to display it in the photo .. (a rather difficult task to convey the entire spectrum of color in the photo) the foxes began to change color not from the surface, but from the back side) and the color very slowly appears on the surface of the leaves .. I imagine what it will become in a few weeks ...

Hella dear growmies! 😁 The seedling is growing well, she is so pretty. 😍 I spray the babies with Fast Plants Spray every 2 days, dim down the LED until they are dry again.. 💦 It gives them a lot of attention and nutrients until they have grown a sufficient root system. I want to pot into 6L pots after the 1L containers have been rooted thoroughly, approx in 2 weeks.. ✌️ Then I will switch to Nutrispray and also I will feed NPK fertilizers. Until then I think they only need Startbooster. 🙏 Thanks APTUS Holland for the amazing goodie pack, I'm already having lots of fun with the product line!! 😍💚 You guys rock! __________________________________________________________________________________ HELLA JELLY SATIVA (30% INDICA 70% SATIVA) | AVG.

🌿 Week 4 – Vegetative Stage – Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Stage: Week 4 Veg Phenotypes: SSH #1 & SSH #2 (Flower-bound) Tent: 8x8 Shared Grow Space Lighting: • Future Of Grow – Black Series 600W • ThinkGrow – Model One LED Control System: TrolMaster Hydro-X and Tent-X Watering: Hand Watering Pot Size: 11L Fabric Pots CO₂: 632 ppm Day Temp: 27°C Night Temp: 25°C Humidity: 57.4% Water Mix pH: 5.83 EC: 1.01 Water Temp: 18.5°C ⸻ 💚 Week 4 – Settling, Stretching, Syncing Four weeks in, and both SSH #1 and SSH #2 are looking incredible compact, symmetrical, and showing zero signs of stress from last week’s transplant. Honestly? We expected at least a little pushback. These are Hazes, after all. You prepare for stretch, for sass, for slow adaptation. But… not this time. They slipped into their 11L fabric pots like they were born there. They’re reaching 7th leaf nodes now, with tight internodal spacing and structure so dense you’d swear they were hybrids bred for micro-grows. And hey, we know veg structure doesn’t dictate flower outcome. These could still blow up, stretch to the sky, and become full-on jungle queens. But for now? We’re appreciating the compact calm before the flower storm. ⸻ 🌬️ The Shared Tent Ecosystem Our 8x8 tent is currently split into two zones: • Zone 1: ThinkGrow Model One LEDs, driven by TrolMaster • Zone 2: F.O.G. Black Series 600W LEDs, also under TrolMaster The environment is fully monitored, precisely tuned, and stabilized for the transitional weeks ahead. With 632 ppm CO₂, 27°C daytime temps, and stable humidity, everything is in that sweet pre-flip zone. We’re hand-watering still, listening to the soil, watching for response, and matching volume to the plant’s breath. ⸻ Feed & Medium – Stability Over Change Same soil. Same nutrient profile. Still working beautifully. No need to tweak what’s working. Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml • Aptus Start Booster – 0.25 ml Roots have claimed their territory. Shoots are responding with balanced, symmetrical growth. ⸻ 🧠 Bro Talk: Expecting the Unexpected Let’s be real, when you grow Super Silver Haze, you kind of expect drama. Maybe a little leaf curl, maybe a delay in root adaptation, maybe explosive node stretch in week 2 post-transplant. But… nope. These girls are calm, confident, even a little reserved. Bro-to-bro? It’s almost suspicious. 😂 It’s a reminder that expectations don’t grow plants. Observation does. We’re staying ready for anything as flower time approaches. ⸻ ❌ What This Week Isn’t: • Not a week for heavy defoliation • Not a training week — their shape is too compact • Not a time to switch formulas — they’re loving it ⸻ ✅ What This Week Is: • A final week of vegetative calm • A snapshot of stability before the flip • A week to appreciate healthy, non-eventful, smooth development ⸻ 🌸 The Flip Is Near Next week we’ll likely flip to 13/11 — not just because they’re ready, but because space is limited. These two girls are sharing a tent with a full house of other cultivars, and it’s getting cozy. We’re preparing now: • Light timers prepped • Trellis nets on standby • TrolMaster thresholds tuned for night temp and humidity shifts They’ve had their moment of calm. Soon they’ll bloom. And that’s when the real Super Silver story begins. ⸻ 📲 Follow the Flower Journey We’ll be tracking every step, every change, every beautiful chaos as they enter the flowering phase. If you’re just joining us: • GrowDiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/dogdoctorofficial • Instagram: @DogDoctorOfficial • YouTube: Dog Doctor official ⸻ ⚙️ Grow Gear Snapshot • Lights: Future of Grow, ThinkGrow LEDs • Control System: TrolMaster Hydro-X and Tent-X • Nutrients: Aptus Holland • Pots & Substrate: Zamnesia Fabric Pots • Airflow: Spider Farmer & TrolMaster 6-inch Carbon Filter Fans • Storage: Grove Bags ( latter but important ) ⸻ There’s beauty in these weeks where “nothing happens.” Because in truth, everything is happening — under the soil, inside the plant, inside the plan. This is Super Silver Haze in its pre-bloom prime. Let’s flip soon and let her write the next chapter herself. 💚 Love to the growers, the dreamers, the students, and the believers.

day 42 images are in last week, I can not count XD. bridal is stacking a lot of weight and is constantly shifting/leaning every morning, good things. I would chop any day but I will wait it out. water, tiny bit of humic and folvic to reduce chloromine, chlorine- air stones day 45 took a few nugs off on day 42, dried for 3 days. Tried bridal and blackberry. As a heavy recreational, thc is up there! bridal felt like having a blindfold over your eyes somewhat sativa uplift but heavy weight feelings. Very good. Lasted as good as 30%'s. Dr. Thunder was also very nice, nug was smaller so mixed with blackberry to have a small j. Also feels very good indica. Both trials were chopped on week 6 day 1. Very pleased with the results. I was worried bridal was more sativa; which charasteristica I am not looking for. So I believe this is a very good heavy hitter run with 4 plants. I can chop any day, but I am waiting for pink paradise to finish seeds. day45 took top nugs from bridal party, blackberry oreo bigstuff and dr. thunder. No touching pink paradise!! day 46 can chop anytime just waiting on pink paradise seeds to finish, bridal party leaning more day 47 bridal leaning hard from weight. day 48 stacking, day 48 video

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

🌿🌸 Week 4 Flowering Update! 🌸🌿 We have officially entered week 4 of the flowering phase, a crucial period where things can get a little nerve-wracking. However, I'm happy to share that everything is looking great so far! 🎉 First off, let me express my relief that I haven't encountered any hermaphroditism issues like some unfortunate growers have experienced. I've been extra vigilant in checking my plants for any signs of bananas or seeds, and thankfully, all is going smoothly on that front. Fingers crossed, and let's hope it stays that way. 🤞 Now, let's talk about the progress of these beauties. The plants are thriving, exhibiting vigorous growth and magnificent stretching. 🌱✨ Maintaining the well-being of my plants remains my top priority. They're displaying a healthy thirst, as each plant continues to drink around 2 liters of water every two days. I've been closely monitoring the pH level of the nutrient solution, which has been steady at 6.11. This ensures optimal nutrient uptake and keeps the plants in their prime condition. Moreover, the TDS range is consistently between 1050 and 1150, providing them with the ideal nutrient balance. ⚖️💧 Speaking of the plants, I must mention how amazing they smell! The aroma is becoming more intense with each passing day. Today, I conducted a smell test for the OG and Oreo strains. The OG emitted a super strong smell of OG/Skywalker, while the Oreo strain has a unique and captivating scent that is difficult to describe but absolutely amazing. I can't wait to smoke that one! Tomorrow, I'll do a smell test for the Queen strain as well. 🌿👃🔥 As we progress through this crucial stage, I'll continue to provide the best care possible to ensure a successful harvest. Today (Day 22) marks the last day of foliar feeding with Bud Factor X, an essential step to maximize THC development and quality. This phase demands attention to detail and careful observation. 👀🌿💦 That wraps up this week's update, fellow growers! Keep your fingers crossed for a smooth journey ahead, and may your own gardens thrive. 🤞🌿🌸 Happy growing, lads! 🌱💚

Week 7+8 for Thelma and Louise and both gals are looking great! As I mentioned before I'm going to let these ladies go until the fade is nice and the trichs are at least 30% amber and I hope that results in FATTY colas! I cut out the silica since they are flowering nicely now. These girls have the most rock-hard stems I've come across so far, feels like bamboo and a karate kick wouldn't do shit to it LOL! Happy growing everyone!

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Coop Poop, molasses, Feather Meal, and Soluble Kelp are ml/gallon of soil top dressed. Everything else listed in nutrients is ml/gallon of water fed to plants without checking the solution Ph. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 85°F with mostly sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons of well water. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 79°F. We missed the rain, but had a big dew and it was 90+ humidity. I watered about 5 gallons each. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 78°F. It was mostly cloudy and super humid, but again no rain. I watered about 5 gallons each. I fed coop poop at 75ml top dressed and Soluble Kelp 50ml top dressed. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 89° with clear sunny skies. Humidity is still up. I watered about 5 gallons each pot. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 88°F with mostly sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 91. Skies were clear during the day. I watered about 5 gallons of well water. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 91°F with mostly sunny skies. I added 160ml of molasses to top of pot and washed it in with my watering wand. I watered about 5 gallons. Run off isn't an issue. The girls are rooted through the pots into the ground and the loved the K in the molasses. This week was a success. These are turning into beautiful plants. They're easy to grow even though I had to treat for powdery mildew. They are very loud smelling and one smells like watermelon candy 🤤

Flower day 17 - All the ladies are looking great, starting to see a lot of bud sights & the smell is definitely getting stronger everyday I open the tent! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🌱✌️🏼 Flower day 19- Got a bigger dehumidifier because I was having problems on days I would water the humidity would go through the roof at night so to prevent mold I bought a bigger dehumidifier but now it is throwing off so much heat the tent is pushing 90 degrees F at some points throughout the day so I’m not exactly sure how to fix the issue! Will definitely not be running so many plants in the next run for the 5x5! Hopefully things get better!😅😅
