Hey Guys! Super excited this week! I've really been wanting to try growing outdoors, so I built a cheap hoop house! Got most of this stuff for the frame from Lowes under 300$. All the soil products I got from GrowGreenMI. Some really cool people out there. One thing I'm super worried about is drainage. Right now those holes are about 4 feet deep and they've got about 4 inches of water in them already. What's been cautioned is that, eventually, about 2 months in these plants roots will grow and reach the bottom and cause root rot to form. One of the biggest things I was trying to be wary of was causing root rot. This was also the biggest precautionary measure I took when mixing the soil. Adding the extra perlite, coco, and clay pebbles. Best advice right now is to build the soil up on the holes another 16 to 18 inches and possible stick a PVC pipe down to the lowest drainage point of the hole to allow some of that natural occurring water to evaporate. Any advice anyone has on it is welcomed! Making a compost tea for the soil outdoors, will probably put 2 cups in each RDWC bucket as well and let that do it's magic for a day or so before nutrient change. Raised the bed about 14 inches as well! All the seeds sank! Off to a good start! Lol

📅 D22 - 05/09 📜Second day of rest for Lucy only tha daily water tracking. LST adjusted a little. Added 1 l of water with only pH-. Deactivated inside roots pump ✍️ 0.98 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 9,7 L (added 1 L) 📏 7 cm 📅 D23 - 06/09 📜 Lucy waked up a little droopy. I guessed it is due to the deactivation of inside roots pump, so I reactiveted it. EC and pH are both raising and Lucy still drinks good. I will make a correction of EC and pH today. Cutted lower leaves. Late update: I added 1 L of pure water with 0,5 ml of pH- to take under control EC and pH. Anyway she looks better now, maybe the inside pump worked ? We'll see tomorrow. Lights distance is set on 20 cm from now on. ✍️ 0,96 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9,9 L (Added 1 L) 📏 8 cm 📅 D24 - 07/09 📜 Lucy seems ok today, she is drinking and feeding ! Today I adjusted the LST on top branches and I will give some days of rest to lucy in the new configuration. EC and pH are both stable. ✍️ 0,96 EC ♒ 6,2 pH 🌊 9,1 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D25 - 08/09 📜 All is working good. Lucy is now completely recovered and she's drinking and feeding very good. I stressed up a little the LST for the manifolding. Also I gave her 1,5 liters of water with EC 0,9 and pH 4,8. I think she's almost ready for the new topping of the 2 main branches. I will perform it on Saturday and then change res. ✍️ 0,96 EC --> 0,92 EC ♒ 6 pH --> 5,7 pH 🌊 8,4 L --> 9,9 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D26 - 09/09 📜 Finally I decide to take the risk to make the topping today, despite the advices of @GrowCN and @Ukfarmer420 (thank you guys). As they say, she is an autoflower so too many close to the pre-flowering. So I've almost changed my mind, but finally, looking at Lucy, I decided to get all or nothing! So I topped her on the two main branches and I completly changed the res. The new EC is 1,4, very high.. Both the moves were a gamble, but failing is learning, so it's ok for me. Let see the aftermath of this push. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D27 - 10/09 📜 Lucy looks good today. It seems the topping and the res change is going well until now (finger crossed). The pH track was a little strange as the value is over 6,6, I already added 1 ml of pH- in 10 L and I think I would add some more today. I didn't change the values here, 'cause I will put the new values the next week. I'm considering what to do now to make the branches stay down, I'm not sure if I have to use SCROG or other LST. I will look other diaries to find out. Update: I opted for LST. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 6,4 pH 🌊 9,5 L 📏 9 cm 📅 D28 - 11/09 📜 Last day of third week, and no changes made on Lucy today. EC is still high, but Lucy apparently can manage it. I made some little update on LST. Addded 1 L of water, pH5 and EC 1,39, tryng to lower the pH. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 5,8 pH 🌊 9,5 L (Added 1 L) 📏 9 cm

Woche drei der Blüte und alles Bestens! Aufgrund der dichten Struktur habe ich die Pflanze an Blütetag 19 großzügig ausgedünnt. Bei photoperiodischen warte ich damit bis mind. Blütetag 21. Die kleine Auto Blueberry Banana scheint aber schon recht weit, daher habe ich hier keine Bedenken. Seit Mitte der Woche scheinen die Blattspitzen etwas Überdüngung anzuzeigen. Der Drain mit Osmosewasser bei ph 6,4 und 20 microSiemens hat ph6,7 und 800microSiemens. Setze die Stickstoffgabe etwas herab indem ich Hesi Blüte reduziere und pk13/14 ergänzend zuführe. Erhöhe somit gleichzeitig Phosphor und Kalium.

🌸 Week 6 Flower – RollerCoaster Haze 🌸 The RollerCoaster Haze ladies continue to impress, towering, branching, and now fully focused on flower production. At this stage, the stretch has slowed down and the energy is clearly moving into bud development. Both phenos are responding exactly as expected: stacking, swelling, and pushing out white pistils everywhere. 📸 Media Update This week we worked mostly with video content, editing clips to show different angles of the canopy, along with a handful of carefully edited photos. I also tested the GoPro inside the tent. While it captures the energy of the grow, the challenge remains: grow lights and reflective walls can be tricky for sensors. It’s part of the experimentation, learning what tools work best for documenting the journey. 🌱 Plant Development • Flowers: Buds are bulking up, calyxes swelling, and pistils standing tall and abundant. • Colas: Long, thick colas are forming, showing that the plants are putting their full effort into bloom. • Health: Leaves remain vibrant and healthy, a great sign that the nutrition plan is balanced. • Size: The girls are still ginormous, filling the tent with their structure and presence. 💧 Feeding & Environment The recipe continues as in Week 5 with the Aptus + Plagron combo, fine-tuned to deliver exactly what they need in mid-flower. The soil’s foundation combined with targeted liquids creates harmony between root uptake and flower demands. • pH: ~6.0 • EC: Moderate, adjusted to soil reserves • Temps: ~28–29°C • Humidity: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 The girls show no stress signs, just steady flower development and consistent stacking. 🔬 Educational Spotlight: What Happens in Week 6 Flower? By Week 6, the plants are deep into reproductive growth. Here’s what to expect and observe: • Bud Bulking: Calyxes swell, flowers add weight, and colas begin to take their final shape. • Pistil Production: White hairs remain abundant, showing active flower growth. Some pistils may begin to slightly darken or curl in certain spot, a natural step in maturation. • Trichome Formation: Resin heads start to appear and multiply, laying the foundation for terpenes and cannabinoids. • Nutrient Focus: Plants now require a steady supply of phosphorus and potassium to fuel flower production, while still needing calcium and magnesium for structural support. This is also a week for observation. Every genetic expresses differently, some push pistils longer, others start swelling earlier, some stretch more, others pack tighter. It’s a reminder that growing is about watching, adapting, and learning from each cycle. 🌟 Looking Ahead • Expect even more bulking in the next two weeks, as the flowers really start to pack density. • Trichome coverage will increase noticeably, and aromas will begin to intensify. • Environmental control becomes crucial — high humidity can risk mold at this stage, so keeping air moving is key. ✨ Reflection Week 6 Flower is where the RollerCoaster Haze girls show their true potential. The canopy is vibrant, the flowers are swelling, and every sign points toward a powerful finish. This is the heart of the ride — and these plants are carrying us higher with every day. 🌸 Week 6 Flower – Summary 🌸 • Development: Buds bulking up, calyxes swelling, long colas forming, abundant white pistils. • Health: Vibrant leaves, strong root base, plants remain ginormous and thriving. • Feeding: Aptus + Plagron combo (no All-in-One Liquid), balanced P/K support, steady Ca/Mg. • Environment: • pH: ~6.0 • EC: Moderate, adjusted to soil reserves • Temp: ~28–29°C • RH: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 • Notes: GoPro testing for photos/videos; documenting challenges with tent lighting. • Focus: Observation of pistil production, trichome development, and bud stacking. • Looking Ahead: Expect flowers to pack on more density and trichomes in the coming weeks. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

📅 Tag 61 - Ich bin ENDLICH wieder zu hause und hab all meine Babys erstmal nen Kopf kürzer gemacht nachdem die während meines Urlaubs gewuchert sind wie Unkraut...was is ja prinzipiell auch ist aber...ihr wisst schon. Alle Pflanzen machen einen soliden Eindruck & wurden gegossen 😍 DARK DEVIL: Alles Tiptop, Blüten sind teilweise so dick wie die Fäuste von nem 5-Jährigen - bin mir nur unsicher ob ich die nicht jetzt schon Flushen soll, oder ihr nochmal ne Woche geben soll. 😈 GELATO: Braucht bemerkbar länger für die Blütenentwicklung, ist ja aber auch so vorgegeben. GG#4: Wenn die zwo Autos fertig sind und zum trocknen in den Trockenschrank kommen wirst du mies entlaubt und dann gehts 2 Tage später ab in die Blüte mit dir! ;) 🙌 Außerdem hab ich sie abgebunden, damit die Seitentriebe mit den Tops auf eine höhe wachsen, even canopy undso - ihr wisst bescheid! 👻 Sie war nach meinem ankommen fast 65cm groß und hat die anderen beiden um längen eingeholt... erschreckend :D Der Größere Topf kommt auch bis Donnerstag an und dann wird die GG umgetopft auf 30l... lol 📅 Tag 63 - Was soll ich sagen, Bilder sprechen für sich. DARK DEVIL: Digger, die kleine wird ja nochmal richtig dick. Hätte ich meine Kollegin die Blätter in Woche 7 stutzen lassen, wären die Buds vermutlich nochmal wesentlich fetter geworden. 😻 Aber egal, sie hat nen super Job geleistet und ich bin dankbar für jede investierte Sekunde! GELATO: Koooooooooooooommt. GG#4: Wuchert wie sau, 30l Topf kam heute...man is das ein Ding. Das wird so heftig schief gehen 😂😂😂 die kleistert mir doch safe das komplette Zelt zu 😂 Ehrlich gesagt glaub ich nicht dass ich die 30L komplett voll mache. Ich denke ich geh höchstens auf 20-22l Wird Krank. Außerdem: Dafür das ich n absoluter Beginner bin bin ich echt verdammt zufrieden damit wie alles läuft. Ich denke ehrlich gesagt nicht dass das ich's so einfach ohne die ganzen Plagron Dünger/Erden geschafft hätte. Ich habe etwas unter dem vorgegebenen Schema gegossen, weils Autos sind (und keine Fahrräder, lol) - und das funktioniert Einwandfrei. Die Dark Devil braucht tatsächlich etwas mehr Cal/Mag als mein gefiltertes Leitungswasser ohnehin schon bietet, da hab ich einfach nach Gefühl dazugegeben. Alle 2 Wochen haben sich die Blätter mal wieder gemeldet mit Cal/Mag mangel und genau dann hab ichs dazu gegeben. Wie dem auch sei, PLAGRON FTW!😻🙌

Flowering day 19 since the time change to 12/12. Hey all together 😀. This week she has developed beautifully ☺️. I poured it 3 times with 1.2 l this week. Tomorrow I will add the 2 g GHSC Powder Feeding Bio Bloom because the first blossoms are coming :-). I checked all the leaves thoroughly for pests or diseases and everything is fine ☺️. Next week I'll look at your roots as soon as the coconut is completely rooted. As every week, the tent was cleaned and the entire technology checked. The humidifier was also refilled every day 👍. In the next few days I will remove the bottom shoots so that the energy doesn't end up being wasted in the small popcorn buds. I wish you a lot of fun with the update. Stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🍀 You can buy this Strain at https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/kosher-tangie-kush/ Type: Kosher Tangie Kush ☝️🏼 Genetics: Kosher Kush X Tangie 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

Been a struggle since go with too much moisture. had to transplant to a hydro soil. Plus started using smart bags. Hopefully my issues are resolved and she grows to a pretty little plant. I imagine I have stunned it pretty badly. Still alive though. Thanks again for likes and follows.

Hello growmies. We are reaching the end of the journey! I enjoyed the experience so much that I will repeat it. I'll take a look at the trichomes to decide when to cut it. 4 Setembro - flush a todas as plantas com água muito fria (3L a cada).

Todo marcha como corresponde, esta vez se regó con Flawless Finish para que las plantas se alimenten de los últimos nutrientes y ya secando el sustrato comenzamos la cosecha. Próxima semana finaliza el cultivo. El aroma que mantienen estas nenas me ha dejado encantada!! 😍

The first week of vegetation is complete, and the plant is off to an okay start! After spending 5 days in the seedling station, I transplanted it into a 15L fabric pot, which will be its final home since it’s an autoflower.🌱 Initially, things weren’t perfect—the first set of leaves turned yellow, likely because I forgot to add coco to the area where I planted it.😅 However, the plant recovered quickly and is now bouncing back nicely! One hiccup was the time-lapse footage—it’s a bit shaky because the fan was directed at the plant, causing some wobble. Overall, I’m optimistic about the plant’s progress and looking forward to seeing how it develops in the coming weeks.🌱 (the plant in the little pot is my first phenotype Runtz muffin from barneys farm that i got gifted and i am getting the setup right now)

omg, another week has passed...... :) Day 100 - and then there was 11 Buds ....... lol Switched over to normal water on both ... smaller has been on water 1+ weeks ..... Endoscope arrives this week i hope..... harvested afew buds to fit it all in the tent and setup lights properly... trimmed em, wired em abit to support the weight of the buds.... I'll see how the endoscope results show, as to harvest...... i think growth slowed abit over last week or 2, because of poor light setup, not enough room in tent, and other grow 6400k led.... got a new tent on the way... 😎 Day 101 - Pics - edoscope, usb arrived... it's very good, but hard to stabalize / focus, i'll have to work out how to use it better...... the pics i posted were of a younger bud from the bottom..... i'm happy with the cloudy with amber, and harvesting.... 😎 Day 103 - vid of all trimmed and drying out upside down in tent. Day 105 - pics vids of drying and into curing.... i'll list all the test buds and buds i trimmed in the final harvest report.....😎

Well guys it's week 8.. I think lol. I'm 100% certain (Not really) that I took clones from 2 different mothers again... like a real cotton-headed ninny muggins. I'm at a loss when it comes to harvesting early what seems to be done, waiting, and how to do it all with flushing. So any help in that practical aspect would be dope. I'm really excited to be rolling out of this one, to be honest. with all the mothers big and clone ready I can finally just ease back into something more beginner level, shorter, whatever you wanna call it haha. The plants all look healthy though. I don't think I really made any big nutrient mistakes. I used LST to get those big colas away from the light and they seem to be fattening nicely making me wonder if I should just leave everything for 2 or 3 more weeks. I decided to throw a PK booster in there. I read online that most in hydro will use it throughout the flower cycle if needed and I was getting weary about the other plants not fattening up. I just keep hearing these things should yield crazy and I'm not seeing it. Then again it has been a bumpy ride. The nutrient change was done on the 14th and the photos are from today. Stay safe yall

Fellow growers, Back for the weekly update. This girl starts smelling just yummy. Nice scents of wood/pine, cheese and citrus, at least to my nostrils :) Steady fattening no more growth, amber/milky on the sugar leaves but clear/milky on the buds/calyx. At least 10-14 more days is my guess. Exciting :) Very thirsty last days, I will stop feeding in 5-7 days. It's been all organic feeding so no need for extreme flushing.
