Mango Kush – Week 1 Flower (Week 5 from Seed) Stretch, sibling rivalry, and fine-tuning the environment Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush – Pheno #1 & Pheno #2 Light Systems: • ThinkGrow Model One LED (main canopy) • ThinkGrow ICL300 (inner canopy lighting) • Black Series 600W LED (shared space) Ecosystem: TrolMaster-controlled, partially hand-watered ⸻ 🌸 First Week Flower – Stretch Mode Engaged We’ve flipped the Mango Kush girls into flower, and while there are still no visible pre-flowers yet, the stretch has begun. • Pheno #1: Already tall and well-structured, pushing into her 8th–9th node with strong lateral branching. • Pheno #2: Started later, but is rapidly catching up—shorter internodes, lush leaves, and a determination to match her sister in size before flowers set. 📸 Both got a full studio photo session this week—looking flawless and healthy from every angle. ⸻ 🌡️ Current Conditions • Room Temp: 31°C (a bit high, AC incoming) • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • PPFD: 766 µmol/m²/s • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Soil Temp: 25.6°C • Watering: Daily (when soil dries to ~25% moisture) ⸻ ⚠️ High Temperature Talk – Risks & Rewards Risks: • Higher temps speed up transpiration, meaning the plants take in water and nutrients faster, which can cause imbalances if not monitored. • Combined with high VPD, temps can push plants close to stress thresholds. Benefits (if managed well): • Boosted metabolism → faster stretch and branch growth before bud set. • With CO₂ at ~632 ppm, plants can tolerate slightly warmer temps without losing photosynthetic efficiency. 💡 Plan: An AC unit is on the way to lock temps into the sweet flower range of 26–28°C. ⸻ 💧 Why Daily Watering Works Here In these conditions, the Mango Kush girls are drinking daily. Letting the medium dry to about 25% before rewatering helps: 1. Prevent overwatering – Roots get oxygen between feedings. 2. Keep nutrients stable – Avoiding EC spikes/drops. 3. Match plant demand – Giving them exactly what they’re ready to drink. Nutrients remain tat Aptus Holland recipe, now for flower, just with slightly increased volume to match their thirst. ⸻ 🌱 Sibling Rivalry – Pheno #2’s Big Push Pheno #2 may have started late, but she’s been stacking nodes and leaves like she’s got something to prove. At this rate, she might hit flower at nearly the same size as her big sister. This will be a fun side-by-side to watch—same genetics, different timelines. ⸻ 💡 Inner Canopy Lighting – ThinkGrow ICL300 We’ve installed the ICL300, a bar-style LED designed to sit inside the canopy. Why it matters for Mango Kush: • Better Lower Buds – More intensity to shaded sites → denser flowers. • Even Growth – Less height difference between top and bottom buds. • Efficient Canopy Use – Every branch gets a fair shot at the light. In multi-strain grows, inner canopy lights help prevent the smaller plants from being overshadowed, literally. ⸻ 🔮 What’s Next • AC arrives → temps stabilize → optimal VPD range. • Expect pre-flower pistils to appear in the next 7–10 days. • Watch Pheno #2’s progress—will she match #1 before the stretch is over? • Continue using ICL300 to fill out the lower canopy for more even bud development. ⸻ 📣 Thank you for following the Mango Kush journey!

Good morning everyone😁😁 Day 16 of the flowering period plant is showing me she want some extra nutes. So i raised it with some extra pk and calmag from aptus just to give her an extra boost. Within the week i wanna see results. Now it s time to slowly dry her out so the lv will be at 40. In the end of her day the lv is between 52 and 42 but i want to lower it to 40 and try to keep it at 40 to max 46. Keep ya all posted Day 19 already, and got some nutes probs. Runtz is going fine but the ww xl is having some major probs i think it' s missing some pk. Looking also at the Runtz i think she is also missing a little pk so raised pk on both ladies. Hope to see some results before the end of the week. Day 21 has past and things are not in control yet. Raised my watering to 1.5 liter cause she is so thirsty. Hope to see results in the coming 2 days Keep m green and grow Big Buds😁💚💯

Chopped yesterday at day 67. 8/23/2024. Also chopped seed plant

13/08/2025 19:30 Sun came back strong with super harsh climate,so the plants are suffering a bit because of underwatering Gorilla z had a bit of defoliation with some leaves yellowing the buds are bumping nice Frostbanger needs some defoliation too but i think it's gonna be next week ,altough buds are becoming frostier and frostier Apricot and Coco milk handled well the bad transporting and transplanting Having some problem with insects as you can see Hope i can fight them with no problems 16/08/2025 19:35 Good moisture level the pot had some water when i came,the gorilla Z Is the only one Who drinks a lot maybe because of the 20l pot Finally gorilla Z Is frosting ,the buds are becoming densier and the smell now Is noticeable,straight tropical Candy z terps unbelievable for a guerrilla grow Frostbanger seems to have not the best buds to leaf ratio,but the quality is dank The buds are like an indoor photoperiodic weed and i think It has at least a month to go🤯 Smell Is very citrusy with a creamy gassy undertone Apricot auto now into the flowering stage ,the plant Is small but i think Is going to be good as It Is sativa dominant Coco milk developing good seems like i did lst but the plant did this all herself ,maybe 5 days and will start to produce flowers 2 Coco fresh just transplanted in the same pot,not the best transplantation i have to say,hope they handle well like the others Neem oil sprayed all around the more i can except on the weed plants Next week it's gonna be rainy maybe i will get no update

I'm starting pre-flowering, letting it adapt and revegetate a bit. I would have liked to give it more, but I've learned my lesson for next time, maximizing my results. I'm waiting for some Under Canopy lights to try them out and I've been trying to finish the grow room. And I need to change this SCROG net; I didn't like it, you can't guide everything properly.

So far the plants look great, a little stretched out but seem healthy. They stretched a bit further than I would have liked before flipping to 12/12 but that's ok. The netting I ordered is too small so I will try and add some more sections with some string or something. Did some light defoliation, when the plants are healthy I like to defoliate pretty heavily and continuously throughout flower. The Autopot has been great so far, there's been a slightly concerning smell from the reservoir, but not alarming. ✨Thurs Sept 15✨ 6.4 ph 710 ppm 1410 EC Reservoir is starting to smell quite nasty. I added 5 Gallons to push it to the weekend then I will do a full clean. Plants are looking fantastic

Welcome growers The first month of life is ended for this beautiful CREAM CARAMEL 🍬🍭🍫 She still one of the most vigourous in my garden and, like the previous weeks, very happy and healthy A few days ago i have decided to modificated her grow doing some training and, for be precis, i cut of the central stem, making of the topping technique ✂️ I would to have the same heightnes for all my ten strains in the garden and so, i decided to do it for all my ladyes (except one) I have also cut a couple of leafs off, not too much for now, just for increase the airflow and for a higher lights exposure of the lowers parts 🍃 And she reacts pretty well 💪 For helping in this "hard time" i have also changed anothers things, like lights intensity and types of nutrients.. About the lights 💡 Doing that, i have increase the potency of my two Mars-Hydro SP3000, from 25% to 50% ⬆️ The two led panel are connected with a cable and i have only to adjuste the dimmer of one of them for change the intensity of each one, in just one move.. Pretty useful 💯 In the middle of the week i have switch from 18/6 on/off to 16/8 on/off.. Always tryed to mimic the natural cycle of the sun light, works good to me 👌 Anyway.. About nutrients 👇 In this week i have giving her always organic/veganic nutrients.. A little bit of silicium (Bionova) / Activator (Biomagno) / Crescita (Biomagno) / Activera (Biobizz) / Grow vegan (Bionova) / The Missing Link (Bionova) / X-Cell (Bionova) and a little bit of P-K 3-5 (Bionova) {This last one i have used in a foliar spray solution} Like i usually do, a little bit of everything at any watering 💧 See you in week n°5 upgrade 📆 Thanks a lot for stopping by here, hope you enjoyed 😎👍 FC ✌️ 🇮🇹

Start of Week 9 🙌 I plan to use fertilizer for bud growth from day 64 to day 70+... depending on when the harvest time occurs 😉😄👍 Started working with fertilizer today, every 2 days a mixture of 10ml per liter as long as the buds have not properly developed trichomes 😵 I hope this works 😵😲😱 Day 68 with fertilizer again

**Grow Report by Zuppler - Week 7 Flowering Phase** Yo, what’s good fam? Zuppler checkin’ in with that Week 7 flowering update, fresh from the Florida heat. We’re gettin’ real close to the finish line now, and these girls are stackin’ up thick! Buds are solid, and the trichs are lookin’ like a snowstorm hit ‘em – straight frosty. After dialin’ back the nutes last week due to that light leaf burn, things are lookin' smooth again. They bounced back nice, and the Overdrive is really kickin’ in now. I can see that final push as the buds swell up, and the resin production is off the charts. The smell in here? Wild. You walk in, and it hits you right in the face. Real loud, like you can’t hide it no more. But no worries, we got it all under control. Temps and humidity are locked in, and the girls are drinkin' up the lighter nute mix just fine. At this point, it’s all about lettin’ ‘em ripen up proper. Leaves are startin’ to fade, and I’m keepin' a close eye on them trichomes – they’re just about to hit that perfect amber/cloudy mix. Zuppler signin’ off. The end’s almost here, fam!

Week 22 (11-11 to 17-11) 11-11 Temps: 19.1 to 26.5 degrees Humidity: 43% to 62% Watering: Both 500 ml. This is the last week, so i only water without nutrients. I will check the trichomes in a couple of days. 12-11 Temps: 18.8 to 25.8 degrees Humidity: 42% to 62% 13-11 Temps: 18.1 to 25.8 degrees Humidity: 46% to 62% Watering #1: 600 ml. #2: 500 ml. Dry Weight #1: 3.4 kg. #2: 3.5 kg. 14-11 Temps: 19 to 25.5 degrees Humidity: 46% to 64% Today i checked the plants under a microscope. I see a lot of milky and some amber trichomes, at the end of the week she is ready to be dried! Dry Weight: Both 3.7 kg. 15-11 Temps: 19.2 to 25.8 degrees Humidity: 44% to 60% Watering: Both 500 ml. Dry Weight: Both 3.9 kg. 16-11 Temps: 19.6 to 25.5 degrees Humidity: 42% to 55% Today i removed mostly all of the dead and yellow leaves. 17-11 Temps: 18.9 to 25.1 degrees Humidity: 48% to 61% At the end of the day i harvested both White Widow plants, she is now ready for the dry process! Dry Weight: Both 3.4 kg.

Tag 81: Wie mit angezogener Handbremse wächst die Chocolate Haze weiter. Hauptsache sie fängt aufgrund meines zu starken Rückschnitt nicht an zu zwittern, bisher sieht noch alles gut aus,😁

SONG OF THE WEEK: Eminem - Kamikaze ------ Day 9 - The 2 girls are doing good 🌱 , they already pushing the 3rd node and they got a nice green colour. The Gp#1 is the most vigorous one 💪 , her roots are already at the bottom of the pot : it is the sign that she need to be transplanted asap so it will be done on day 10. The Gp#2 is good too but she got a genetic issue as the 3rd node is in fact a "mono-leaves" 😲 as the 2 leaves are link together like siamese sisters 🤔: weird but the 2nd node is already pushing secondary stems so I will probably have to top her 😢 ------- Day 11 - Today I put them in 3L pots , I know that autos prefer to be planted in their final pots but I will do another pot switch to their final 13L pots. Happy Growing y'all ! You can also check my others Sweet seeds current diaries with a Gorilla Girl & An Indigo Berry Kush 😎

Woche 3 Die Money maker wächst wie die Woche zu vor weiterhin gut, Die Wurzeln sind zwar nicht ultra weiß aber mir egal die Pflanze sieht gut aus und die Wurzeln auch nix ist Tot oder schleimig. DWC geht auch ohne Wasserstoffperoxid. Bei Fragen einfach die Frage stellen, genauso bei Verbesserungen und Tipps für mich. Danke und viel spaß mit euren Pflanzen.

Day 42-49 (Day 42) Just watered today but couldn’t go until runoff because I didn’t have enough RO. I forgot to add the probiotic too. Nonetheless, everything is starting to recover from those weird deficiencies and is looking super healthy. Plants are really bushing out now too. I had to top the zkittlez and BBB#3 again as they are just getting too big. Nothing is definitively showing sex yet but I’m seeing clues. Shouldn’t be long now. If I get 4 females or less I will use 10gal pots, 5-7 fem 5gal pots and 8-12 3gal pots. I need to stop overwatering. Even though it doesn’t look too overwatered, it is much better to water a little bit each day at lights on. This will help keep the humidity down as well as deliver optimal oxygen to the roots speeding up plant growth considerably. (Day 45) Gave an EM1 spray down today. The beneficial bacteria is said to overpopulate surfaces so powdery mildew and septoria can’t form. Something seems to be really working as I haven’t seen any yet. (Day 47) I sealed up the tent and am running both dehumidifiers and it’s keeping the RH around a safe 70% night and day which is right on track with VPD. Plants are all looking super healthy. Deficiencies have pretty much all cleared up. Cold nights I’m running 600w and warmer nights I’ll run 400w. I was asking around Instagram about white ash/good burn and a few different people assured me it has to do with mineral content of the soil. I was told the three best products for clean ash is glacial rock dust/basalt, oyster shell flour and langbeinite. I already have langbeinite so I’ll grab the other amendments today and top dress. I grabbed the amendments and also got some Destiny Organics dark matter super soil, coco and some beneficial nematodes. Top dressed each amendment except langbeinite and mulched in some coco coir. (Day 48) My shelf came in today and I think it may be to big for the 4x4 tent. Each square is 12”, not the 11.8” advertised. I could wipe down my flower room and set it up in there which would give my plants a good adjustment to the new lights before I flip. Or I could set it up in the veg tent but that seems like a huge hassle as the need to be moved and flipped soon anyway. I wish they would show sex already so I can toss out the plants I’m not keeping. For flower I am considering starting over fresh with the new Destiny soil and coco mixed with some amendments. I’m concerned that my current mix might be too hot. I could also dilute it with the Destiny/coco mix. Those little bulb mites that came in with the worm castings are a little concerning as well. Some say they are just beneficial composters aka “worm bin mites” and others are telling me they’re predatory bulb mites which destroy crops like garlic. I’m leaning towards beneficial composters but in another grow I watched them devour a seedling before it sprouted. Gotta check the current roots but the plants aren’t quite ready to be transplanted. (Day 49) Got everything in the flower tent wiped down and sprayed with alcohol then EM1 few hours later. Got the shelf set up and got all my temp controls set up and running. I put the controllers outside the tent this time and will patch any light leaks. Gave a lite compost tea at 830ppm and a velokelp foliar spray at 6ml/L. This will be the last veg feeding before I transplant into their final containers on the 31st. BCTG#2 is a confirmed male and I pulled him. No one else is showing definitively. Roots looked super healthy with very few mites but I’m not 100% convinced they’re all clean. I saw a few mites on leaves today too. Saw a bit of droop after the move but they all look happy just a few hours later. Took a few clones from some sucker branches on a few of the blackberries.

I am starting to train my automatics a little bit. The Photos are growing very well and are stretching quite a bit. Every day or two I have to rearrange the LST sticks to spread the canopy even more. Next Week im going on vacation for 2 weeks so im topping one of the automatics as it will be going in to flower soon anyways. This is an experiment on whether I can delay flower by doing that or if it just stuns its growth. One of the clones was also topped but as it hast alternating nodes it doesnt have the same effect as for plants grown by seeds. Still curious whether it has any positive affects on plants growth structure. For the next two weeks I will just let the plants grow and train and defoliate once I am back from vacation.
