🌿 Lava Cake – Week 6 (2nd Week Flower) | Morphing Into Bloom 🌿 The Lava Cakes are officially stepping deeper into flower mode. Stretch is slowing down, morphology is shifting, the leaves, the stance, the energy of the plants are clearly moving toward bloom. Even without a huge photo set this week, the video walkthrough tells the full story: happy, thriving plants under carefully tuned conditions. ⸻ 📖 A Quick Recap – From Seed to Here • Seedling Stage: Strong germination, started in solo cups with Aptus support, rooting fast. • Veg Growth: Transplanted into fabric pots, lush branching, topped and trained with ease. • Environment Setup: TrolMaster ecosystem dialed in step by step — exhausts, intakes, carbon filters, sensors. • Lighting Evolution: Black Series 600 → Future of Grow LEDs → ThinkGrow Model 1 → now with a Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W and the ThinkGrow ICL-300 added to the lineup. The room is a galaxy of light. • Nutrition Journey: From Aptus start boosters to super soil base, steadily adapted feeding. Now, the recipe grows richer for flowering. Each step has built the foundation for what’s happening now, the Lava Cakes standing strong in early flower. ⸻ 🍽️ This Week’s Feeding Recipe We swapped Start Booster for Top Booster and layered in a new experiment: Plagron trio support. Current Mix (per L water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml The Aptus All-in-One Liquid is on pause for now, pellets in the soil still provide baseline nutrition. This new combo is about flower initiation + terpene support + bio-stimulants. It’s partly science, partly intuition — but that’s how discoveries are made. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment This Week • Room Temp: Up to 34°C (AC unit coming soon to stabilize) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watered when dry-down hits 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → reading EC, moisture %, and soil temp straight to Tent-X brain Conditions aren’t perfect, but the girls are handling it gracefully. Warmth makes them thirsty, and with careful irrigation + sensor data, they’re drinking daily and staying strong. ⸻ 💡 Lights of the Garden • Future of Grow LED • ThinkGrow Model 1 and ICL-300 • Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W All tied into the TrolMaster network. The room is now a layered ecosystem of precision — light spread, airflow, and CO₂ distribution tuned for a canopy that can handle big flower production ahead. ⸻ 🐝 A Note for Nature – The Bees Alongside all this controlled technology, we can’t forget the real farmers of the world: bees. A photo this week shows a bee at work, pollinating. Without bees, there would be no flowers, not in the garden, not in the fields, not in the orchards. They are nature’s TrolMaster, carrying genetics forward, balancing ecosystems, ensuring that plants fulfill their destiny. In our indoor rooms, we simulate everything: light, water, air, food. But bees remind us of the real story outside, a world built on quiet pollination, day by day. A fairytale where the smallest wings sustain the biggest cycles of life. So this week, the Lava Cakes bloom under LEDs, and the bees bloom under the sun. 🌞🐝 ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC will stabilize the room climate and drop stress levels. • Flowers will set fully, with pistils stacking over the next 7–10 days. • Plagron trio will show its effects, watching closely for flavor, resin, and density changes. • More light power may be added as the canopy demands. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thought: Even on a busy week, even with just a video instead of many photos, the story of these Lava Cakes is alive. They’re moving into flower with strength, under lights, with data guiding them — but always with love as the main ingredient. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚

Day 58, 11th of November 2020: I set the lamp 15 minutes shorter to switch off earlier so they receive 11:45 of darkness. I would like to imitate the nature when longer nights come with time till the 4th week (when they will receive 13 hours darkness a day 15 minutes minus 4 times = 1hour) so every week 15 min longer darkness for 4 weeks and then back to 12/12 to have bigger buds from the 4th week.... Wao. Well, all good hopefully they will stop growing soon but the strech is not that much thanks for the trainings such as topping and LST.... Pistils are started appearing so they she the sex I think one more week to go and they will settle down concentrating on bud development. What to say every 2nd day is fertilization with the mix and ratio above now we are waiting. Anything else? Well just look atbthe pictures and decide what you think. I am pretty sure they look cool LOL. This Gleato Zamnesia is very promising I really like the smell already she is nice but all of them I mean I am in love with all so. Kalinia Asia is nice and I am so excited for the Sweed Seeds ones the red girls OMG :)

10/21(day 43) -Its the start of week 7 and all is good. Im happy with the progress these plants have made even with my newbie error last week. Im going to start the week off with a small water of pH balanced water. 10/22(day 44) -Watered all pants with rhizotonic and pH'd water. Also misted the rhizotonic from under the fan leaves. 10/23(day 45) -HULK A is really exploding in growth right now. PH seems to handle LST well. -HULK B is flowering faster but the growth is slow and its falling behind HULK C height wise . -HULK D is evening out which is cool to see 10/24(day 46) -Added another 200W . daisy chained them together. 10/25(day 47) -I think the plants have already responded well to the new light. -HULK A/C are now larger than HULK B my healthiest seedling. All plants have recovered from my mistake in week 5 but B is a little stubborn. 10/27(day 49) -Eniding the week nicely with leaves looking healthy and plants overall health looking great. Real happy with the new light.

Blackberry Moonrocks is building some nuggets! There isn't too much to report this week, actually. I'm keeping her hydrated. The lighting could certainly be better, but it is what it is. The plants just were totally different sizes, so this next run, plants are planted around the same time due to this issue. The newest run I am implementing is a SOG again, as that worked best. Here is what I did this week. 4.9.25: I watered with 3L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with; 💜 2ml Trace PH: 6.4 PPM: 361 9.9.25: I watered with 3.25L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with; 💜 6ml Flourish 💜 1 TSP Sea K(elp) 💜 .5 TSP Bud Explosion PH: 6.3 PPM: 970 Thank you for stopping by this week and hanging out in the comments 😁💚✌️😊🧡

hello growers again I will be growing sixteen Critical mass Mr.Nice clones in the same setup as last time. the light is Sunpro 315w cmh. my goal is to have 400+ grams (375 last time) but with an old bulb that I now have a brand new one. I use the same fertilizers again, namely advanced nutrient ph perfect. I will be using the SOG technique and a bit of LST. I would like to have this grow ready in 10-11 weeks from planting the clones. Please wish me luck. Thanks ✌️

Hello Bros and Sis! How you doin? I'm back with some amazing strains from Royal Queen Seeds (thanks goes to James), Biological Seeds, and finally have the pleasure to try Humboldt genetics! YAY! Let's start saying that I've upgraded my tent to a 0.90*0.90*1.60m (3*3*5ft), so more space for the beauty and a more neat space for work&play! 😍 This time I've want to grow some Kush, to see and taste what everyone talk about, and something classy like the Royal AK (never tried before) and UK Cheese Auto, I wanna try with my own hands the speed of the fast flowering Speedy Chile and Candy Kush and make a jump into CBD's strain with the Pink Doctor... that's all, guys!😀 The girls are 1 week old and seems fine. A little stretch for them beacuse I prefer that than an heat stress caused by the MH upon their tiny heads. I try to follow the "Organic path" as much as I can do, and don't feed the plants until they really needed to, and I guess they don't ask for because the soil of choice is Plagron Allmix. I enriched some lightmix by Biobizz with 25/27gr of Vertafort pellets, for the Pink Doc that hasn't popped yet, so maybe I'll upload some new pics in the next days. As usual come and say Hi! Ciao!

Ancora rimango pietrificato dalla struttura di questo gioiellino di Green House seed....sta diventando veramente alta con internodi relativamente corti. Ha iniziato anche a mettere germogli veramente ovunque! Questa è la seconda volta che coltivo questa genetica e ricordo che anche la prima volta fú un successo, anche se questa volta penso lo sia ancora di più! Anche grazie ai fertilizzati di CANNABOOM ( stavo utilizzando plagron per queste fanciulle ma poi ho deciso di cambiare la loro dieta) che sinceramente hanno fatto il loro grandissimo lavoro ! Già alla seconda applicazione ho potuto notare tutto il loro potenziale! Il CALMAGSI e veramente eccellente un prodotto con calcio magnesio ferro e SILICIO! Veramente questa azienda offre prodotti di qualità elevatissime a prezzi veramente modici! È il bello è che sono anche super concentrati, ce ne sono parecchi che ne basta 0.1 o alcuni addirittura 0.02 quindi parliamo che puoi fare veramente molti litri! Ma adesso tornando alla nostra carissima KING'S JUICE AUTO, penso che questa coltivazione sia veramente un grande successo...(almeno lo spero) Ringrazio veramente tanto i ragazzi di CANNABOOM per avermi consigliato al meglio ogni piccolezza, e ringrazio anche GREEN HOUSE SEED per la loro scrupolosità nel consigliarmi che seme coltivare! Spero di fare ancora tanti diari per queste due aziende a mio parere LEADER NEL SETTORE! Miraccomando restate sintonizzati! Alla prossima settimana!!!! Grazie mille a tutti voi che mi supportate sempre anche con un semplice mi piace!

This was my first outdoor autoflower experience. Very happy with the results. Buds could have had a better taste in my opinion but that is just preference.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Black Muffin F1 de Sweetseeds. Esta variedad me resultó bastante sencilla de cultivary es bastante resistente, si no la maltratáis crece mucho y bien sana, la flor se ve increíble, tiene una cantidad de resina considerable y unos tonos rojos oscuros muy peculiares, se ven genial. El olor que desprende es bastante frutal con toques cítricos, no pinta nada mal, las flores están prietas. No da mayores problemas, el ciclo no es largo, cuiden con la altura ya que se desmadran un poco. IMPORTANTE destacar: En las fotos comprobaréis que ya no hay botes de cristal con sobres de bóveda, ahora hay Grovebags. Que son una especie de sobres o bolsas que retienen el peso, previene la aparición de moho y mantiene intacto el terpeno, para que el curado sea más óptimo. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Vegetative week 3 --> A busy week. The plants started grow slowly in the first days of the week and l saw some fungus gnats on the top of the soil. Quickly I start to stop the propagation of gnats with spraying neem oil on the top of the soil and placing a sticky trap. These preventive measures working nice. I think probably the gnats have arrived because I forgot to turn on the dehumidifier for two days and the humidity blow up over 70%. I waterd the plants only one time this week with 2Lt of 6.5 pH water for plant. The last days of the week i used the LST tecnique on the two ladies with bending over the main stem. Temperature grow box---> 22-26 °C Umidity grow box ---> 45 - 55 % Total water of the week ---> 2 Lt/plant
