Week 6 is here

🌸 Week 5 Flower – Frost on the Horizon We’ve reached the midway mark of flower, and the Mango Kush sisters are entering their true production phase. What started as white hairs and clusters is now becoming recognizable bud sites, with calyx swelling, pistils stacking, and resin glands beginning to form. Even though the two phenos are still at slightly different paces, both are showing the strength of Mango × Hindu Kush genetics: dense flower set, uniform branching, and a promise of rich aromas to come. ⸻ 💧 Feeding Update – Adjusting for Signs & Demands This week we observed minor leaf spotting, likely an early sign of calcium/magnesium imbalance. With the canopy pushing hard into bloom, demand for structural nutrients rises. To address this, we adjusted the recipe: Updated Feeding Mix (per liter): • 🌿 Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • 🌿 Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.35 ml (slight increase for leaf support) • 🌿 Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml (reintroduced for balanced NPK support) • 🌿 Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • 🌿 Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml Why this change? • All-In-One Liquid provides a steady base of NPK to complement the super soil and ensure no hidden deficiencies appear as flowers bulk. • CalMag Boost increased slightly to help counter early spotting and reinforce leaf health. • Sugar Royal & Green Sensation remain to push terpene, resin, and bud density. 🌱 Educational Takeaway: At mid-flower, nutrition must shift slightly from “steering” to supporting. The plant is now a high-demand engine, and small deficiencies show quickly. Adding back a balanced NPK base (All-In-One) ensures pistil and calyx production doesn’t stall. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment – Riding the Heat The room remains lively but challenging: • 🌡️ Temps: peaking at 31–34°C • 💧 RH: 50–60% • 📊 VPD: ~1.8–2.0 kPa While slightly hotter than ideal, the Mango Kush girls are holding strong thanks to airflow and the resilience provided by biostimulants like Sugar Royal and Regulator. An AC unit is on the way, which will stabilize the climate moving forward. 🌱 Educational Takeaway: High VPD increases water demand, plants drink more, transpire faster, and pull nutrients quicker. This can be beneficial if balanced correctly, but also risky: deficiencies show up faster, and stress can slow bud formation. Monitoring and adjusting is the key. ⸻ 💡 Lighting – Mid-Canopy Power Boost Our lighting orchestra is now running at higher intensity to fuel flower bulking: • ThinkGrow Model One – deep penetration into the canopy • 2× ThinkGrow ICL-300 bars – mid-canopy support, ensuring no shadowed sites • Future of Grow Black Series 600W – full-spectrum coverage • Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro – evening out the footprint PPFD is averaging 750–800 µmol/m²/s, which is perfect for mid-flower. The canopy is even, with bud sites developing from top to bottom. 🌱 Educational Takeaway: Mid-canopy lighting like the ICL-300 prevents “popcorn buds” by ensuring lower sites receive enough light intensity to develop properly. The result: fuller plants, less larf, more usable flower. ⸻ 🌱 Genetics in Action – Mango Kush Week 5 • Pheno #1 – Still ahead, stacking pistils into early bulking buds, beginning to sparkle under macro view. • Pheno #2 – Catching up fast, with strong pistil growth and early calyx development. Though she started later, her structure is filling in beautifully. Both phenos are showing that classic Mango Kush balance: fruit-forward aromas beginning to rise when you brush the flowers, with the Kush backbone promising earthy depth in the final cure. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect & What Not to Expect ✅ Expect this week and next: • Rapid calyx swelling → buds begin “rounding out” • Trichome initiation across sugar leaves • First noticeable sticky texture • Stronger aroma when handling ❌ Not yet: • Full frost coverage (peaks Weeks 6–7) • True terpene explosion (Weeks 7–8) • Final density (Weeks 7–9) 🌱 Educational Takeaway: Week 5 is often where growers get impatient. Resist the urge to overfeed or over-adjust. Buds are setting their foundation now, the bulk and frost come with time. ⸻ 🔄 Recap – The Journey So Far • Weeks 0–2: Seedlings established, Aptus Start Booster support • Weeks 3–4 Veg: Rapid branching, transplant into super soil + Aptus Mycor-Mix & Buffer • Week 5 (Flip): 12/12, stretch begins • Flower Weeks 1–2: Power Buds introduced, lighting expanded • Flower Week 3: Flower set established, pistils everywhere • Flower Week 4: Bulking begins, feeding simplified • 🌸 Flower Week 5 (Now): Buds swelling, trichomes emerging, All-In-One Liquid reintroduced, environment monitored closely ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude To everyone following along, thank you. Each week is a balance of science, art, and patience, and it means a lot to share this journey together. The Mango Kush sisters are teaching us once again: growth happens in stages, and trust in the process brings the best results. ⸻ 💭 Grower’s Note: “This week felt like the garden finally started to sparkle. The first trichomes are here, pistils are building like fireworks, and even with the heat waves, the girls stand tall. Pheno #1 is racing, Pheno #2 is steady — and together, they remind me that nature never grows in straight lines, only in rhythms.” 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Nine and a half inches of flower power Baby!

My house is full of sweet chocolate and fruit aroma:) her flowers are full of shiny trichomes :) the girl only bloomed for 57 days, but she is already ready, maybe her flowering sped up in my grow box, high temperature 33°, because of that under my arm my light was set to 85%. From the first days, the girl showed fast and healthy growth:) I made a timelapse video, but unfortunately due to problems with the SD memory card, it takes 3-4 days at the end of the video, besides, my tent is too small for that :D I also made bubble hash from sugar leaves myself :) I tried Zamnesia seeds for the first time - I hope that someday this seed bank will offer me its products to try again :) thank you all. you were together :) good luck with the growing.

Weekly update on these beautiful ladies. Did another defoliating this week as well as lollipopped them up another node. I feel it helps mature the lower flower sites and allows plenty of airflow though the leafs. I introduced bloom nutes as well as P&K. All in all Happy Growing

Eight, nine, it's boring we say, we're sleeping all day. Frequently the tiny leaves we count, while the real show happens underground. DAY 8 (actually day 7 for Mimmy, but you know.. Kids.. :rolleyes: ) She's growing like she should. I love her already. Still watered her 0.5L water with Enhancer today, forgot to add to the soil. :) Pot was quite heavy. Lights are at 55% approx. DAY 12 Needed to water, so she got her first Booster Tab alongside Easy Plus Micronutrients, dissolved in lukewarm water + added compost tea. The tabs dissolved well, now let's see what they can do! 🚬 I also added nematodes for fungus gnats, saw some of them bloody critters flying around. :argh: Watered 4L.

Not much going on this week. She's growing quite slowly for some reason. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.. 😕

It was another great week here in the grow room plants have come leaps and bounds low stress training is really having a huge effect on canopy density and i cannot be happier

Esta semana tuve dudas con el riego, como en casi toda la etapa de la planta, pero al fin, la veo super bien. Le doy 1 Litro de agua cada 3 dias, y parece que le encanta! Las ramas principales miden entre 70-80 cm, la mas grande llego a los 90 cm ! Ya no hay lugar para que siga creciendo mas alto, ya que no puedo subir mas la luz. Excepto ese asunto, todo va de 10 puntos! Ya estoy saboreando mis primeras cookies. Paz!

trichs are milky this time i decided to chop as milky is peak thc and not wait to start amber this way i see it buds stay green even after a few months in jars Trimming initially only - and hang down in shaded ventilated place for 10-14 days Then moving to jars wood boxes for olding process..

So far so good, drinking almost 10 litres every days which is insane. As my Wilma grow diary the humidity is a touch high as I shared the same tent.

Die Grapefuel Gelato ist als erstes fertig geworden. Habe ein paar Bilder der Trichome von einer AI analysieren lassen und laut der ist der Anteil der Amber-Farbenen ca. 27% im Durchschnitt. Jetzt wird erstmal abgeholzt und dann nass angezogen. Update nach dem Ernten: Es scheint sich um einen gassy Pheno zu handeln 😋 an manchen Stellen haben sich anstatt 2 gleich 3 Buds gebildet 😍 bin echt auf den ersten Rauchtest gespannt 💚

I will update in coming week With more photos/videos/information 3/9/21 harvest update Drying for 3 days now with humidity of 50% and around 23 degrees. So far this process is going perfect nothing to complain I think tomorrow i can start trimming them 😍😍😍 and putting them in jars got some boveda packs and little humidity meter ready to go happy times i am ready for it 4/9/21 TRIM NIGHT IS UPON US FUCK YEAH 🎉🤯🤩😍🤗😈👹👽 More info photo later on happy times Critical 1 is Jared and came to 72,59 gram's dry weight Critical 2 is Jared and came to 78 Grams dry weight Of total 150,59 gram's of 2 plant I am very pleased with this outcome for first timer tomorrow smoke test result 11/9/21 Made slide show of the Final products The critical looks and smell's amazing. Try some before curing . And try some after a week of curing and it's getting there very pleased 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 Etc etc bla bla bla 🤣 Happy growings Growmies BIG SHOUT OUT TO : 🙏 MARSHYDRO 🙌 And my wife @Tcvanhel for always being my rock and supporting me any way possible thank you dear 💕💕💕 visit www.marshydro.eu for your best gear and use the PROMO CODE: DEVILSBUD Fully marshydro supported Setup: Marshydro GT100X100X180 Marshydro Ts 1000 LED lamp

Candy candy. One has a very strong cherry nose from the cherry pie cross. The sister has a more runts nose on it and sweet. Some cherry The Wolf is giving a Chem smell. Items my nose like mint menthol. Vix or something. I like it!!

The girls are fill out beautifully green and healthy. Maintaining a clean and controlled environment is key for a healthy grow so I clean my grow area once a week with peroxide. Also doing some extra preventative maintenance for pest twice a week. Stay tuned and thanks for following

July 4: topped both plants.

Saludos de nuevo compañeros! Siento el retraso en actualizar, vamos a ponernos al día!! Entrando en la semana 3 comienzan a verse algunas necesidades, las plantas necesitan un trasplante y mas intensidad lumínica. pronto se efectuara el cambio y comienzo a prepararlas. ✊ 16-10-2018 Riego con pulverizador en tierra, uso 1mlxL de Voodoo, 1mlxL de B-52 1mlxL de Sensi Grow A+B a EC 0.9 19-10-2018 Riego con pulverizador y Sensizym de Advanced Nutrient 2mlxL, con abundante agua. 350ml por planta. 21-10-2018 riego solo agua a PH 6. Observaciones: el día 19 aprecio que algunas plantas muestran carencias y algunas algún posible bloqueo, por miedo a no haber echo las cosas bien desde el principio, decido dar un lavado de encimas a las raíces con Sensizym y dar descanso de nutrientes hasta finalizar la semana 3. Vamos a por la 4ª semana familia! Muchas gracias por el apoyo, espero poder dar el máximo de información posible para todos! 👊👽 --- Greetings again, comrades! I feel the delay in updating, let's get up to date! Entering week 3 begin to see some needs, plants need a transplant and more light intensity. The change will be made soon and I begin to prepare them. ✊ 10-16-2018 Irrigation with soil sprayer, use 1mlxL of Voodoo, 1mlxL of B-52 1mlxL of Sensi Grow A + B to EC 0.9 10-19-2018 Irrigation with spray and Sensizym of Advanced Nutrient 2mlxL, with plenty of water. 350ml per plant. 10-21-2018 irrigation only water at PH 6. Observations: the 19th day I appreciate that some plants show deficiencies and some possible blockage, for fear of not having done well from the beginning, I decided to wash the roots with Sensizym and give rest of nutrients until the end of the week 3. Let's go for the 4th week family! Thank you very much for the support, I hope to give as much information as possible to all! 👊👽

Roots starting to grow out of net pot. Top feed system keeping the plants growing strong as roots develop

He who stops is lost, as an old saying goes I don't know exactly what the origins are, so here's a new Zamnesia season. We are in the middle of winter and despite growing in an area that isn't the warmest in Europe, it's really cold now. It's 16-18 degrees Celsius in the house and we need to bring the temperature of the propagator growbox between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius. So we first placed a layer of those 1 cm thick "rubberized" floors that are used for gyms, they are easily found on Amazon and are very useful for insulation. Then a heated resistance mat and then the closed propagator on top. Inside with our seedlings and the light on at minimum 20% we reached 24 degrees, not bad in fact the germination is proceeding very well. 100% opening of the seeds in water and almost all of them are opening in our biodegradable peat pots. ----- Our Ghost Train Haze were the first to open in water and the first to come out of the ground. Really very very fast both, one a little more after about 16 hours was open in water and after about 30 hours in total was out. Spectacle of nature. Some problems on one with attached seed and placenta read below how to solve, it is the miracle of life at birth you have to keep your eyes open. It is a sativa predominance if it does well we will send it to the AWC competition see what happens. WARNING: Placenta Problems ---- ALWAYS look very carefully at the seedlings, if the seed or the placenta prevent the opening of the cotyledon leaves the plant dies after a while. Remove it delicately as if it were a condom or almost. I apologize for the example but it gives the idea remove slowly delicately please. WARNING: If you choose biodegradable pots, choose the largest ones possible and not paper/cardboard ones, they are made of peat which is the main component of most of the soils we use. If you want to avoid transmitting vibrations to your neighbors, I recommend installing one of these gym floors under your growboxes, I did it and I also feel safer not to disturb. They are easily found on Amazon in different thicknesses, I took a gym model that is assembled like a puzzle, they are also found in children's shops, they are those floors that are assembled to make children play safely, or to train and to avoid vibrations from equipment or of any kind. Everything will be grown with Plagron Pro Mix with 100% fertilizers, let's start with Power Roots 1 Ml/l Plagron fertilizers are available on Zamnesia in convenient Pack formats for all growing styles. I used this one with a simple search you can find the other products. ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/12119-plagron-top-grow-box-100-natural.html Try a seed of this strain that drives us crazy... ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/12511-zamnesia-seeds-ghost-train-haze-auto.html Zamnesia Description // From the day its cotyledons emerge from the substrate, Ghost Train Haze Auto will surprise you with its rapid growth and robustness. When it starts to flower, this short sativa will develop long and compact buds with pungent scents of spice, citrus and fuel.

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil to be spread evenly on top of the soil. Day 1 we had early morning rain followed by mostly cloudy skies. High temperature was 77. The rain took care of the watering today. I'm treating with arber again and more defoliation. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 81°F, skies were partly cloudy, and I watered 3-4 gallons from the hose. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 83° with sunny skies. I watered 4-5 gallons from the well. I removed leaves with powdery mildew and treated with Arber. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 88°F. Skies were clear and sunny. The humidity was around 90% today. I watered 4-5 gallons from the well. I finally got most of the infected leaves off. I treated with Arber again today. Day 5 we had high temperature of 89°F. Skies were sunny. I watered about 4-5 gallons with well water. I've been treating these with Arber biofungicide but it's hasn't had much affect, except on #1. I stripped all the infected leaves. I'll treat these tomorrow with growers ally fungicide. That should clear them up. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 86°F with partly cloudy skies. We're expecting rain tonight and it's super humid today. The weather is not cooperating while I'm treating for powdery mildew. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 84°F. We had intermittent storms and showers throughout the day that took care of the watering. This week was a success. The weather has been terrible for cannabis, but these girls are thriving. I had to treat with Arber biofungicide and then Growers Ally fungicide(both organic).It cleared up the powdery mildew and these girls are ripping.
