I'm thrilled to provide you with the latest update on my flourishing journey. We have now entered week 2 of the flowering phase, and I must say it has been an exceptionally productive period. The plants have undergone a significant stretch, showcasing robust growth and a remarkable level of health. 🌿🌸💪🌱 Despite the positive progress, I can't help but feel a hint of apprehension due to an unfortunate incident experienced by a fellow grower. One of their plants unexpectedly hermaphroditized during the same stage we are currently in. 😬🚫⚡️ Our collective venture involves four individuals, and at present, two of us, including myself, are in the initial week of flower. The other two participants are at week 5 and 6. Fortunately, the fourth member seems to be experiencing smooth sailing with their plants. 🌿👥💚🚢 Stay tuned for further updates as we navigate through this critical phase of cultivation. Let's remain vigilant and provide the utmost care to ensure a successful and abundant harvest. 🌿🌸🌱🌾 Happy growing! 🌿💚🌱

Day 18. Just after being watered. Looking real stocky after being topped. You can see in the video where the two new shoots are growing nicely. Really big leaves at the moment, Roots have expanded and grown massively. Struggling to keep the humidity up at the moment, as much water in the tent as possible right now. Soon they will be big enough to start the LST.

Es war zwar nicht geplant genau zur Wintersonnwende zu ernten, aber die Pflanze ist in ihrem Reifeprozess kerzengerade auf dieses Datum zugeschossen. Blütetag 64 war sie dann (nach meinem Gusto) fertig. Die Ernte ist nassgetrimmt auf 3 Dryferm-Bags verteilt zurück im Zelt. Dort ist der Lüfter aus, so komm ich auf halbwegs konstante 60% Luftfeuchtigkeit. 1-2 mal am Tag stelle ich den Luftbefeuchter vors Zelt und schalte den Lüfter für ein paar Minuten an um die Luft auszutauschen ohne die Luftfeuchtigkeit zu verlieren. Wenn ich das Zelt aufmache ist aus dem "light" des Geruchs ein "heavy" geworden. Heftiger Gas-Geruch, der das Clorophyl komplett überdeckt und die süße Note nur als Nuance mit sich trägt. Edit: Erster Rauchbericht nach 9 Tagen in den Dryferm-Bags: Geschmack und Wirkung stehen dem Aussehen in nichts nach. Wenn man erstmal einen kalten Zug nimmt, schmeckt das ganze nach der Mischung die sich im Zelt breit gemacht hatte. Weichgespülter Kush mit Süße die in Richtung Kirsche geht. Wenn der Jib dann brennt, kommt beim Einatmen am Anfang ein smoother Kush Geschmack, der im Mund süßer wird und nach dem Ausatmen einen kirschsüßen Mund hinterlässt. Die Wirkung ist positiv, fast euphorisch. Kein Couchlock, aber auch kein Sativapush.

So week 4 is in the books. I'm really happy with how everything has been going. I've been busy and stressed these last few weeks so to see how good these girls are doing puts a smile on my face. The terpenes are strong now and everything is starting to fatten up. Won't be too long now. Follow my Instagram and YouTube for more pictures and videos! I would appreciate the support!

20/06/25: The plants seem to have taken the repotting and strong sunlight really good and are growing nicely ☀️ From now it's all outdoor so let's hope the weather gods are more generous than last year! Also I couldn't stop myself from applying some mild LST to get a bigger canopy! Plants are still pretty bushy and I am super excited to see how the stretch unfolds from now on! 😍 25/06/25: First week of flower is almost over and the vertical growth was unbelievable! It seems like Gorilla Z Auto #2 leans more to the sativa side and developes really large internodial spacing, while the other plant remains a bit more bushy! 🌿

This girl is really starting to thicken up! She smells so damn good!!! The buds have loads of trichomes. The buds almost look as good as ones grown indoor. 🤞 the weather stays nice. Although I built her a shelter that I can put poly over 😏 😎🍿

These ladies are just starting to show their little white bud hairs in their new top growth. I am happy with their stretching speed so far and at 7 days they are still a good size to work with. I think they should fill the spaces they have perfectly once I am finished their training after defol. The growth in them leaves a lot of options for decent mains. The C Banana is spreading out steadily and her stems are nice and fruit supporting thick. No signs of any deficiency or issue so far and her roots are top notch below decks. Monster Zkittelz is certainly trying to be true to her namesake now and has put on some nice size this week. She is only just showing her pistils so a good stretch is still ongoing with her before she is finished. She is filling out the rear corner very well. be well Growmies

🌿 Week 3 – Transplant Week – Lava Cake (Zamnesia Seeds) 🍰 Grower: Dog Doctor Pheno Selection: Lava Cake #1 & #2 Pots: 11L Amnesia Fabric Pots Light: Future Off – Black Series 600 Environment: Dual air systems (TrolMaster + Spider Farmer) Feeding: Hand-watering (for now) Monitoring: TrolMaster ecosystem (in progress) ⸻ 🌱 Transplant Time – Rooted, Ready, and Rising This week marked a major milestone: our two selected phenos, Lava Cake #1 and #2, were officially transplanted into 11-liter Amnesia fabric pots. The girls are thriving, roots are pristine white and full of life, and the energy in the tent is buzzing with potential. We celebrated the moment properly—with photos in the studio, of course. They looked so beautiful, they deserved the spotlight. 📸 We’ll try this again next week, before they grow too big to carry! ⸻ Why Fabric Pots? We chose Amnesia fabric pots for their root-focused benefits: • Air-pruning the roots naturally, preventing circling and encouraging a healthy root ball • Increased oxygen to the root zone, supporting microbial activity and faster nutrient uptake • Better drainage, reducing the risk of overwatering • Durability & sustainability—washable and reusable Fabric pots turn the container into a living zone that breathes with the plant. And now, these queens have the space they need to express themselves fully. ⸻ 🌿 Soil Mix & Nutrient Support We prepared a rich, bio-balanced super soil transplant mix, boosted with Aptus Holland amendments: 🔄 Transplant Mix: • Super soil base • Aptus Mycor-Mix – inoculates roots with beneficial mycorrhizae • Aptus Micro-Mix – promotes microbial diversity and root health • Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – stabilizes pH and nutrient flow 💧 Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml (stress support & nutrient flow) • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml (structure & balance) • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml (base nutrition) • Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml (root & shoot stimulation) 💦 Water Stats: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 • Water Temp: 18.5°C We continue to bottom-water—placing the solution in trays and letting the girls draw it in themselves. This promotes downward root expansion and avoids oversaturation at the crown. ⸻ 🌀 Airflow & Environmental Control With multiple strains in one tent, proper airflow and environmental balance are essential. • 2x 6-inch Extractors (one TrolMaster Aerofan, one Spider Farmer) • 1x 6-inch Intake Fan • All fans are filtered with carbon filters to purify air and manage odor, even early on. Prevention is key. The Aerofan is controlled by the TrolMaster system, giving real-time response to temp and humidity. The Spider Farmer fan is managed by a GGS controller, running parallel automation. • Room Temp: 27°C • Humidity: 57.4% • CO₂: 632 ppm • Light: Full-spectrum from the Black Series 600—compact, clean, and consistent. This environment isn’t just “good”—it’s being crafted as a living ecosystem. One that will evolve into semi-automation, allowing us to trust and fine-tune from the TrolMaster app. ⸻ 🔍 What This Week Is (and Isn’t) What it is: • A foundational week: transplant, root expansion, environmental balance • A chance to observe and support the transition without stress • A moment to shift from “starter energy” to serious vegetative growth What it isn’t: • A week for heavy training—we’re letting them root down before any top work • A time to overwater—bottom-feeding keeps everything stable • A race—slow roots = strong fruits later on ⸻ 💬 Final Words Our Lava Cakes are happy, lush, and ready to grow into queens. With their roots now in rich, living soil, and the tent gradually evolving into a precision-controlled jungle, we’re laying the groundwork for a clean, healthy, and joyful flowering run ahead. More studio photos soon. More lessons too. This isn’t just a grow, it’s a journey of discovery, shared with love.
