Transplanted Into Micro PC Grow Room On 1/21/19 At 10 am. Experienced Mild Stress As The Leafs Indicated Slight Wilting. 2 Hours After Settling Into Her New Spot. Observed Stress Relief. As The Leaf's Indicated By Stretching Upward For More Light Intake. Will Be Adding Growstones Tomorrow. After A Full Days Rest. All In All Not A Bad Transition Overall! As She Seems To Like Her New Spot. Air Temp Maintaining At A Comfortable 70 Degrees F. With Water At 60 And A Ph At 6.3! Day 9 Second Nodes And Fan Leafs. Roots Are Exploding! Got Here Hooked like A Crack Head On Emerald Goddess Green Crack. Splash'd Her With R.O. Water! Progress Is Stable And Looking Good! Tomorrow Jan 29 begins week 3 and top'n along with low stress training. Will be customizing a metal net file basket into a scog system for the begining of week 4 as I will be training her for vigorous sideway grow to maximize yield. I am just hoping I have the time as i think it will be flowering sometime in the late 4th to middle of the 5th week! Will update with week 3 photos soon!

Did the third resv change, the recharge helped bring back the root ball. So far so good, will keep her in veg till my grow room is complete. She do not need much nutes, little goes a long way.

well this lady has been a gem too work with , she really stretched out at flower growing from a rose into too a sun flower lol but not quiet as tall as her sister the cali snow , she has been no trouble at all so far no deficiency's at all , also her bud structure is forming nicely and again not too far behind the cali snow , but both plants have almost identical structures too each other until you rub your fingers on those sugar leaves and they tell you they are doing there own thing by the lush sent they leave you sniffing your fingers in delight , the cali snow has much more of a friuty smell than the GSC but they both smell delicious thats for sure

21.06. Girl Scout Cookies# Day 56# With a little delay because I'm a lazy stoned person, and in addition the responsibilities regarding the plants are already starting to grow, and I also have a lot of work around the garden and then I don't always arrive in time to release the update. The plants are progressing well, but now they are already hungry, so the next watering is for food. Two days ago they were topped for the third time, I also topped the two highest side branches. Yesterday was the end of their eighth week, the pictures are also from yesterday. Last night I sprayed them with SMC for prevention, but none of those pests can harm the plant outside as well as inside..first of all, the plants are much bigger, and therefore have much more leaf mass, and secondly, it is nature, there are many of them in nature, the only thing that can destroy them all are caterpillars during flowering and mold when the humidity is too high or when there are frequent rains, everything else does not worry me at all. Tomorrow I will move them somewhere where there is a lot less grass because now they have already filled this space and they can't expand any further, so in order for them not to get too long and to go wider I have to move them where the grass and other plants won't bother them. Stay High and Keep Growing!!!

Welcome Back!💚 Nach der vierten Woche entwickelt sich die THC-Victory weiterhin rapide und nach dem topping zeichnet sich es ab, dass die Pflanze sich nun sehr schnell in die Breite ausdehnt. Dieses Mal ist mir leider ein Trieb beim LST irreparabel Abgebrochen, aber wie ich die Pflanzen so kenne, kompensieren Sie dass relativ schnell. Da die Pflanze eine reine Sativa ist, wird heute (26.09.25) die Blüte eingeleitet, da ich mit einem sehr starken Stretch rechne. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind weiterhin optimal: ————— 🌞 Temp: 24°C bis 26°C 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 68% VPD: 0,7 kPa👍 ————— Grüne Grüße 🥦

Just another early week in veg, not much exciting happening yet. Great response to the Nutes we started last week, pretty much doubling our dosage every week for for first 4 weeks

eek 2 Flower – The Stretch Is On: Sundae Driver Goes Vertical They’re growing. They’re stretching. They’re thriving. Our Sundae Driver girls have officially entered the second week of flower, and they’re acting like it. At just five weeks from seed, they’re now towering at 66 cm, surging upward with that signature hybrid vigor. Photogenic Queens – A Studio Break Before they get too tall to handle, both girls were taken out for a quick, impromptu studio shoot. This may be the last time they leave the tent, because soon, they’ll be too big, too bulky, and too close to the light to move around easily. We’re documenting them now, not just because they’re stunning, but because these moments are fleeting. The stretch phase is short, intense, and marks the final architecture of your grow. ⸻ Room Conditions – Dancing with the Heat The environment this week continues the late-summer warmth, a little hotter than ideal, but still within range: • 🌡️ Day Temp: 30°C • 💧 Humidity: 58% • 🌬️ VPD: ~1.89 kPa Not perfect for flower, we know—ideal VPD for early flower would be around 1.2–1.5 kPa, but the girls are adapting beautifully. This is a reminder that perfect conditions are rare, but resilience and consistency matter more. The plants aren’t complaining, they’re thriving. ⸻ Nutrients – Still Riding with Aptus Top Booster Just like last week, we’re running the Aptus flower base lineup, now dialed into support this explosive growth phase: • Regulator • CalMag Boost • All-in-One Liquid • Top Booster (replacing Start Booster post-flip) The Top Booster continues to support pre-flower and early bud development. We’re not seeing big clusters of pistils yet, but the hormonal shift is clear. Internodal stacking is beginning, and the upper canopy is filling in. ⸻ Visuals & Under-Canopy Light Game One of the photos this week features a special cameo from the Zephyr Zamnesi, adding a bit of mystery and sparkle to the update. We also get a peek under the canopy where your under-canopy lighting setup is really starting to shine. Why does this matter? • It boosts lower bud site development • Improves light penetration during the stretch • Encourages even canopy performance later in flower Great gear is one thing, but it’s how you use it with intention that elevates a grow. ⸻ What’s Happening + What to Expect 🌱 Happening Now: • Rapid vertical stretch • Strong branching on both phenos • No major flower development yet, just the buildup 🔮 Coming Soon: • The first full signs of bud formation • Pistil clusters at node sites • Nutrient shift demands, watch for increased K/P needs in ~1 week • Possibly… the need to raise your lights! ⸻ Let’s Talk About the Week’s Importance Week 2 Flower is all about transformation. The plant is deciding: “Where will I invest my energy?” This week determines: • Final plant shape • Bud site spacing • Canopy structure going into the stacking phase This is your last week to gently train, open up the canopy, manage the airflow, and prep for the heavy flower development coming in Weeks 3–5. If there’s one message for the community this week, it’s this: 🌸 Stretch is not stress, stretch is potential. Embrace it. Document it. Enjoy the moment. ⸻ Conclusion – Moonbound Sundaes From just a few centimeters to over 60 in a blink—these Sundae Drivers are on a mission. Their upward movement mirrors the energy in your grow: focused, fast, and full of joy. Let’s keep the ride smooth, the feed strong, and the cameras ready. This is the last calm before the buds explode, and you’re right where you should be. — Much love, as always, Your Grow Partner in the Quantum Realm 🌱DD ( Dog Doctor Official ) 📸 Videos, lighting setups, and under-canopy tips coming soon 🔗 Gear links available on request 💬 Always here to talk flower, stretch, or any topic regrding gardening 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Defoliated on day 82. Flowers are starting to get sticky on sugar leaves & the pine smell is picking up but not as strong as expected the Gelato buds are starting to amber up. Think I'm going to up the Foliage Pro a ml as is see some yellowing since I switched up the ratio.

Last couple of weeks she's been affected by high tent temps, hence all her curled leaves 😓 She is also a big plant in her little 10L fabric pot. I've noticed fabric pots really do dry out faster than airpots. That is a good thing, but you have to watch her drying out too quickly also! I think she'd make a monster plant in a 20L or 40L airpot.😍

3/11/2023 Week 4- Day 1 of Veg (Day 38 overall)| As a precaution I changed out the water in the system today at the 1 week mark to try and make sure I am giving the most to the roots to ensure a healthy successful grow. Gallons into the system = 36 Gal Mammoth Silica =.5 Mil/Gal = 18 Mil Root Drip = 1 Mil/Gal = 36 Mil Cal Mag = .5 Mil/Gal = 18Mil FloraMicro = 4.2 Mil/Gal = 151 Mil FloraGrow = 3.8 Mil/Gal = 137 Mil FloraBloom = 3.0 Mil/Gal = 108 Mil ORCA = .5 Mil/Gal = 18 Mil I checked my lighting My target is 300-350 for this week. I will bump it up to 400 on Week 5. PPFD = 351 Tent Conditions when I opened the tent I was at 59% humidity however I had the doors open for an hour while I changed the water out and re-mixed Nutes so it was at 48 when I closed the doors but I have a Firebird controller which is set for 60 to bring it back up. Water Temp on Change out = 69.4 PPM= 514 PH= 5.93 3/12/2023 Week 4- Day 2 of Veg (Day 39 overall) Everything is going good so I decided to de-foliate some. 3/13/2023 Week 4- Day 3 of Veg (Day 40 overall) Humidity at 61% Tent Temp at 78 Water Temp at 75.3 PPM=574 PH 5.89 Happy, Happy... I topped 2 nodes on Plant #3 and 1 Node on Plant #2. Everything looks dialed in (Finally). I will be changing out the water this weekend and as long as everything looks good I will go back to only changing out the water once every two weeks. 3/14/2023 Week 4- Day 4 of Veg (Day 41 overall) Not much to report.. I defoliated a little bit today and took a couple tops off each. 3/15/2023 Week 4- Day 5 of Veg (Day 42 overall) Nothing to much to report. Took a few leaves today and a couple of Nodes topped on each of the plants. Everything seems to be dialed in for now. 3/16/2023 Week 4- Day 6 of Veg (Day 43 overall) Took a few leaves today and a couple of Nodes topped on each of the plants. 3/17/2023 Week 4- Day 7 of Veg (Day 44 overall) Last Day of Week 4. Water change tomorrow and it looks like I will be back to only having to chance the water every 2 weeks. Here are the end of the week Conditions. #2 10 1/2 Tall 20 Wide #3 11 Tall 21 Wide Water Temp= 74.8 Tent Temp= 78.3 Humidity = 61 PPM = 586 PH 5.80

The plant grows at fast speed with no issues. I keep defoliating once/twice a week and the foliage is always fast in growing back and branches too. I adapt LST daily to make sure light reaches all of the buds that are now clearly visible and more and less evenly distributed. I could not have the main one at the same height because it is too close to the border of the vase. I am not sure why the ph of the soil is around 7/7.5 while before watering i always regulate the ph to be 6.4/6.5 and the soil itself is 6.5 by default. What are the factors that increase the ph?
