Great strain with Strong genetics. I'll approach this gal a little differently next time with regards to training. I topped early and this plants sativa side kicked in and grew a tall lanky legged gal 58". The quality is fire here I'd definitely train differently to get the most out of your canopy which is what I'll focus on in the future. By far the most dense and sticky buds I've grown to date and it comes on my 1st year Anniversary cultivating cannabis. Thank-you Grow Diaries for allowing me to learn from this fantastic platform as well as share the experience to others.

Send help... the Pineapple Express has taken over the tent... she’s massive at 44-45” tall currently... stretch slowed down but she’s past the light at this point and even light angled doesn’t hit the very top of the main colas just yet. (Back left of tent) White widow looking great for the lollipopping method I used on her(front left of the tent) White widow 2 growing well, got a nice dose of ferts this week based on her light coloration(front middle) Berry white growing slowly still, tent is more suited for sativa dominant strains but this one gives the tent a bit more variety. (Middle back of tent) Purple trainwreck 2 growing like a beast this go round, she’s taking up half the tent almost by herself and filling in a 1.5x2 foot area in nicely. (Far right of tent) Purple trainwreck 1 bulking up extremely well, buds are nice and sticky, density is great so far on these buds. Hoping for another 14-20 days. Started her flush after giving her one more dose of nutes last week. Spotted first ambers on the trichomes... she’s only on day 45 of flower but the trichomes are already beginning to turn amber. I still suspect this strain to be semi-auto(has rudelaris genetics somewhere) and additional growing of this plant has simply increased this theory. The plant did have pistils when put into flower(18/6 lighting) but was a clone of a previous plant. She did reveg in 18/6 lighting and was cut from a flowering plant. I believe she had already transitioned into flowering since the plant had started opening pistils up again before being placed in 12/12. I believe she was a week or two into flower at the start of 12/12.

420 Fastbuds Week 6 Gorilla Cookies Auto Weekly update. Thus week has been getting chilly. Down to the mid 50's at night inside the tent. I did add General Hydroponics 3 part flora series to give a little boost. So far both seem to be OK and progressing beautifully into mid flower stage. All in all Happy Growing

If I could name weeks it'd be "GET ME THAT PK 13 14 STAT, THIS GIRLS GONNA DIE.... 😭WITHOUT... 😭 fat.. 😔Nugs...😥I'm OK, Im OK, her Nugs may not be the dankest in the land. But they're MY Nugs. Hmu if you want your plants drawn as anime characters, and when something like this happens, it'd be 🔥 artwork. First though, I'd better learn to draw, for sure that's the first step [/lockdownIsolationInsanity-Done] 1AM 19TH JULY: I find out my care taker for my setup HAD to move them... OK, shit happens. Sorry what this was 6 days ago? AND YOU LOCKED ALL THE NUTRIENTS AWAY SO THE PEOPLE YOU MOVED THEM FROM WOULDN'T SEE. And of course, of course he can't find (I call that lost, but he disagrees) the keys to where he locked them. OKAY.........😡 It's okay though, locks are made to be broken (when your tomato crops livelihood depends on it /wallets livelihood), and I'm a simple man. "Ooga Booga, Me break through cos me big strong man." Jokes aside I'm just dissembling this fucking lock tomorrow. And he's 100% on board, because if I'm giving him "__" % just to literally do the most basic stuff. Say, 20%... Sounds cool, oh wait no 20% of zero? Damn, that's zero. Yikes. So we're getting these plants fed ASAP. :) VERY EVENTFUL UPDATE :) * Apologies but this week will be light on details - Will just give the main events. LST - 1st Attempt ever, appears to be workinPotted in 3 Gallon fabric bags. Citric intervention over, but after posting this I'm going looking for ph down, Im unvortable constantly using Citric t lower pH. On 3 biggest plants (~45-50cm), using only Tera Vega and PK 13/14. Used old pictures, because of some chaos.. lets say. Updated pictures tomorrow

2.10: Steady as she goes. 2.11: Day 23 from soil. Watered with 32oz from the tap at 6.3ph. Plant is healthy and i'm trying some leaf tucking. 2.12.2024: Day 24. Moving along nicely. Plant is very healthy. First sign of white tips but only on new growth. Could be light and/or nute related OR it could be normal. Will monitor. Did first round of LST just moving some fan leaves out of the way with pipe cleaners and shifting bud sites to get more access to light. 2.13.2024: No change. Plant looks good and still has a little moisture left from watering 2 days ago. No nutes used at this point. Still working with the original nutes found in the FFOF. 2.14.2024: Day 26. Moving along. No water, no hight adjustment. Did some LST on the bottom 4 branches just to guide away from the fan leaves. 2.15.2024: Day 27 from seed. Adjusted garden ties to even things out. Responding well to LST. White pistils came out the past two days. Raised light 5 more clicks. Still at 75 watts. Day 28 from seed. End of week 4 from seed. Top 2 inches of soil were very dry and pot felt light so i gave it another 64oz of water at 6.3ph. 8 to 10oz of run off. Run off tested at 6.4ph, 2100ppm. Having temp challenges so i shut the humidifier off. Currently sitting at 75 with 47rh.

Week 5 flower is over and things are going great they are all fattening right up thanks to TON O BUD these Nutrients are really good easily my favourite range. Thanks to my sponsors for the help along the way I can't thank yous enough and we can do some work whenever you guys and gals want. I've recently had to get some ona gel and some inline air fresheners as the smell is getting super strong i got the gel and 2 of the fresheners foronly £35 from @HydroproWashington and they work really well you can smell lemons from the second you open the door so these are highly recommended for anyone who's struggling to keep the smell down even with my new filter these were stinking the house out. Please follow my sponsors on social media and get sow fire in your tent ⛺. @Anesiaseeds @divineseeds @HydroproWashington See yous next week and happy growing team

Así finaliza una increíble cosecha de Papaya Zoap de Sweet Seeds ! Desde el inicio, esta planta demostró ser robusta 💪 y fácil de cuidar, con un crecimiento rápido y resistente. Durante la floración, los aromas tropicales empezaron a destacar, anticipando lo que Sería una experiencia única. Los cogollos están densos, cubiertos de resina y con un aroma increíblemente dulce, con toques cítricos y exóticos. En cuanto al rendimiento, ha sido bastante satisfactoria, y la calidad de la hierba es de primera

Last leg of the race for some of these girls! Excited to harvest and trim and cure them. Everything went fairly smoothly this week, looks like some serious burn on the one, but she is towards the end anyways. I started flushing some of them a week ago, and the one furthest along about 2 weeks ago. I’m glad because I’ll save on nutrients as a bonus! I’m excited for my next run, I think things have gone really well with this first grow despite all of the complications. Anyways I should have some harvest pictures next week, thanks for following my grow!

Dynamics starts to gain momentum Slightly straightened, poured compote With a metal stick кemoved all the shoots from the branches there is no point wasting resources on them You can speed up the filling of the pot from the top by lowering the light, but then the root will not have time to fill the pot, so just wait I refresh the bend every day Сut the side light to the maximum, turned off the sink, it's too cold at night at the end of the week, work began on preparing for the replacement by the middle row

Primera semana de floracion, 7 dias, ciclo de luz 1212 y ya veo los primeros pelitos. Empiezo a agregar pastillas easy to bloom, de Royal Queen a 2/3 de la dosis indicada por el fabricante, al bajar el PH con las pastillas agregro PH + y Ata Clean para mantener limpio el autopot, aunque se lo hecho en el riego a todas las plantas y les va bien. Las he ido doblando las colas mas largas para equilibrarlas en altura, aunque no hizo mucha falta, quite un par de hojas muy grandes y le aplique el ultimo tratamiento de prevencion con jabon fosforico e insecticida natural de aceite de Neem, por cierto, ha venido muy bien, 0 bichos. Quiza le aplique en un par de semanas cola de caballo para prevenir hongos.

🌸 Week 7 Flower – Crystals, Aromas & Monster Buds Welcome, friends, to the final pre-harvest chapter for our Mango Kush sisters. Week 7 Flower is where everything comes together: weight, density, aroma, and frost. And let me tell you — these girls are absolute monsters. ⸻ 🌱 The State of the Sisters • Pheno #1 – The trailblazer. Her colas are enormous, dense, and sparkling like snowy peaks under the lights. The macro shots reveal a glittering layer of trichomes, covering buds, sugar leaves, and even little fan leaves near the canopy. She’s showing phenomenal resin production, and her pistils are thick and curling. • Pheno #2 – The younger sister, but catching up fast. Her buds are dense and sticky, the frost is appearing more heavily, and every macro shot reveals the same dazzling crystal coverage. She’s slightly behind Pheno #1 in maturity, but don’t be fooled — she’s a true powerhouse in her own right. The smell in the room is so strong that if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be calling the fire department thinking someone baked 100 mango pies at once! 😅 I mean the frost on these buds? Looks like Mother Nature had a snow day in the grow tent — pure white crystals everywhere, like the plants are wearing winter coats in July! ❄️ ⸻ 🔬 Trichome Watch – Macro Details Week 7 is all about trichomes. Here’s what we’re seeing and monitoring: • Clear trichomes: Still present, mainly on the lower bud sites, indicating some time left before peak potency. • Cloudy/milky trichomes: The majority of bud surfaces are now showing full milkiness, a sign of peak THC potential. • Amber trichomes: Small percentages on the tips of pistils — this is the first sign of cannabinol conversion, giving the slightly more sedative effect. 🌱 Educational takeaway: Trichome inspection is the golden key to deciding harvest timing. Macro photography helps us see nuances invisible to the naked eye. We’re aiming for a balance: mostly milky with a touch of amber for that perfect Mango Kush high. ⸻ 💧 Feeding & Nutrition At this stage, feeding is minimal but precise — we don’t want to push excess nutrients, only support the plant as it finalizes resin and bud density: • Just water lol the rest they can find in soil and else were Educational takeaway: Week 7 feeding is about support, not growth. The girls have all the energy stored; now we just help them transform it into resin, aroma, and density. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temps: 28–30°C, slightly warmer in the canopy under heavy buds. • Humidity: 50–55% — perfect for trichome development. • CO₂: 620–650 ppm, steady, helping photosynthesis and sugar production. Observation: Trichome production loves a slightly drier mid-to-late flower environment. Too much humidity can reduce resin and promote mold on dense buds. ⸻ 💡 Lighting The lighting orchestra is still performing beautifully: • ThinkGrow Model One → penetrating the canopy • ThinkGrow ICL-300s → mid-canopy perfection • Future of Grow Black Series 600W → full-spectrum balance • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro → evening out footprint Result: every bud site is kissed by light, maximizing sugar leaves and resin density. ⸻ 🔄 Recap – Seed to Here For anyone joining now, here’s the full journey of our Mango Kush sisters: 1. Seed germination: Smooth, fast, with Aptus Start Booster. 2. Vegetative stage: Strong branching, two phenos selected, transplanted into super soil + Aptus Mycor-Mix. 3. Early Flower (Weeks 1–3): Pistils forming, Power Buds introduced, lighting expanded, TrolMaster ecosystem established. 4. Mid Flower (Weeks 4–6): Bulking, simplified nutrition, aroma starting, trichomes appearing, All-in-One Liquid and CalMag adjustments. 5. Week 7: Buds heavy, frost everywhere, aroma exploding, trichomes mostly milky with hints of amber — the final week before harvest. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect ✅ Expect: • Buds heavy and dense, needing support • Aroma extremely potent, filling the tent • Trichomes mostly milky, some amber • Sugar leaves sparkling with frost ❌ Don’t expect yet: • Complete amber conversion (full sedative effect) • Final cured aroma or flavor (only post-harvest) Educational takeaway: Week 7 is the climax of flower maturation. Now is the time to inspect, support, and admire — patience will yield the perfect harvest. ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To the GrowDiaries community: thank you for joining this journey from seed to near-harvest. The sisters have taught us patience, observation, and joy in every stage. To the gear: TrolMaster, ThinkGrow, Lumatek, Future Of Grow with the Black Series — thank you for letting the plants reach their full potential. 💚 Grower’s Reflection: These girls are monsters, monsters of beauty, resin, and aroma. Every macro shot shows why we love this process. And yes… if it weren’t for the carbon filters, we’d probably be evacuating the neighborhood from sheer Mango Kush smell! 😅 Frosty, dense, magical — week 7 Flower is everything I hoped for. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. 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 💚 📌 P.S. – About the Timeline A quick note for clarity: Mango Kush #1 and Mango Kush #2 are slightly offset in their flowering timeline — there’s about a week difference in their development. For the purpose of GrowDiaries, this Week 7 Flower report combines both sisters to provide a full picture of the tent and the ongoing bloom. While Mango Kush #1 is slightly ahead, and #2 a bit behind, this report reflects both in their mid-to-late flowering stage. Why combine them now? GrowDiaries updates are sometimes tricky, and combining the sisters allows us to share their progress together, making it easier for readers to follow the story and observe the similarities and differences. 🌱 Rest assured: When harvest comes, we’ll present a complete follow-up report covering harvest, dry, trim, cure, and smoke review — highlighting each sister’s unique traits and final results. Honesty is part of the journey, and transparency helps everyone learn and apprecilove the full picture. 💚 Growers love to all 💚
