Everything seems to be going great. The Maverick had some leaf deformations but they went away. After 4 years of growing, this Maverick seems like it beast with all that foliage underneath I've never seen anything like that. I will be topping Maverick today. The blue dream looks awesome it's a slow grower and the leaves are very thin and fragile. Other than that it looks beautiful very nice and even growth. One more thing I wanted to mention is that I have a light with options for blue spectrum, red spectrum and/or both. I see everyone online say to use both blue/red from seed to harvest. Well I'm here to tell you that the blue light for veg works great plus it saves about 25 bucks a month in electric. So if you want to save money just use the blue light for veg I doubt it will make much of a difference putting on both. Plus that's what most manufacturers recommend. Peace!!!

Hello everybody! This week will be the hardest one. I’ll have to work a lot inside the room, and even on GD to document all the changes. Last week I topped for the last time (in reality this happened the first day of this week), and finally stopped with high stress training. From now on, our attention will fall totally on ScrOG. Day 43: Topped the 4 colas at the extremities. Red blood came out from them (see the photos). Amazing! Sorry for the bad quality, but I got just the phone with me when I did the job. When I took the second photo (a few hours later), the plant had already sucked up all the lymph. You can still see the red blood by the way. Day 44: Set the timer to start with 12/12 from midnight of day 45. Day 45: SO MANY THINGS HAPPENED TODAY. Flowering started, baby! 🤩 Today, in the evening, I worked for about 4 hours to prepare the ScrOG environment. - Improved the LST before placing the grid. - Took some photos. - Removed the humidifier. - Since my LED panel has half of the blue lights broken (this happened three weeks ago), resulting in 100W less of total potency, I added 3 new lights pointing where the panel is broken (2x 36W led bulbs and 1x 30W COB led light). I uploaded a photo and a video to better understand what I’m talking about. I even tried changing the broken LED driver, but it didn’t work, so now I’ll have to wait until the end of this cycle to send it to maintenance. - Put 20gr of BatMagno (which is bat guano), 10gr of “Farina di Neem” (Neem Flour), and 50gr of Alghe, all of them over the soil. I’ll write something about these fertilizers at the end of the comment. - 4.5L of tap water (corrected to PH6.5), which gave zero runoff. Haha, she’s drinking like a camel. - Placed the grid. - Took a few photos. - Little defoliation. - Took all the other photos. - There we go! I preferred not to add the bloom fertilizer now because I’m a little worried about overfertilizing this baby. During veg, she showed me she doesn’t like nutrients, so I’m just listening to her requests. I’ll add the bloom one as soon as she seems hungry again. By the way she’s just 20cm tall (I’m so proud of this result) and the grid is located a few centimeters above her. Let’s see if I switched to 12/12 at the right time: I heard this strain usually stretches for about 6 weeks!!! 😱😱 Let’s talk about the ferts I placed on the surface of the soil. - BatGuano: it’s a mixture of organic fertilizers of natural origin and suitable to produce a high amount of organic nitrogen and phosphorus that can be assimilated at 100%. It’s a natural slow-release fertilizer for flowering: the raw materials used (guano, dried borlanda with ammonium salts, kieserite of natural origin, flagpole, meat meal, bone meal and dried poultry) are the result of a careful selection which ensures a low salinity and a gradual transfer of the elements. The phosphorus content in BatMagno (being organic) does not undergo insolubilization. - Alghe: they are a portentose substrate activator made of a mixture of algae of the species Ascophillum, Fucales and Laminariales, obtained through a process of dehydration and grinding without the use of any chemical substance. They can be used during the preparation of the soil, and increase and strengthen the formation of the root system, mobilize the nutrients in the soil, reinvigorate the plants, protecting them from adverse weather conditions, help plants to overcome stress conditions and improve the quantity and quality of production. All of this is possible thanks to the presence of betaine, cytokinins, vitamins, auxins and alginates polysaccharides. - Farina di Neem (Neem Flour): it’s a vegetable product based on Neem seeds, obtained from the extraction of Neem Oil through a process of cold-squizzing out, which increases crops, improving both growth and flowering, as well as strengthening the roots of the plants. The Neem Flour is mixed with nitrogen fertilizers, that slow down the conversion and leaching of nitrogen. Repeated interventions improve the endogenous resistance of plants to pathogens, creating an unsuitable environment for the development of insects and cryptogams. Due to the presence of important trace elements for plant life, it prevents imbalances and nutritional disorders. It also protects plants from Nematodes, ants, insects and soil larvae. Let’s say Alghe is the most smelly product. My room now smells like seaweed! I need to figure out how to give her water now that the grid is on. I think I’ll plug a 2m pipe at the end of my watering can. That’s the most easy and cheap way to fix this problem. I just need to find the right size of the pipe. I’ll show you my solution next week.

week 3 flower is going great. I increased my UVA lights to 8 hrs on. Gsc and Blueberry have decent bud-lets already on day 17. OG kush has preflowers. waiting on Blueberry muffin to show pre fowers should be soon. At the end of week 3 GSC and Blueberry are doing the best and starting to get more trichomes. Im waiting on OG kush And Blueberry Muffin to really get going!

4/18 - 4/20: She's coming along nicely! 4/22: I FIM'd her today and gave her about 20oz of water with cal-mag, humic acid, and boomerang and foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. Later, I rinsed off all the plants with a stiff stream of filtered water in preparation for tomorrow. 4/23: Today was BoomBoom Spray day! I just love how visible the growth is the day after a BoomBoom Spray day!😲 Tomorrow I'll spray her down with Axiom Harpin a|b proteins..she'll start flowering soon and I want her hitting her stretch with mega-vigor.👈 4/24: I did a foliar application of Harpin proteins and fed her with about 1/4-gallon. 😊 I removed all the cool white and blue light, and turned on the 3rd set of QB's and bud boosters so she will get her stretch on- I also reduced her photoperiod to 20 hours so she can start getting some beauty sleep. I also tied down her apex cola today. 4/25: Didn't have much time today, but I looked in on her. It's getting crowded in here, so I'll remove all the photos (clones and seedlings) tomorrow. That's it for week 3-

Everything went well right through flush the last to show amber trichs were the Banana Crack, on harvest everything was well ready to come down. Everything is hanging to dry I’ll complete the harvest section in about a week. I’ve tested all three. Zour Apples is an Indica beast, super strong and dank. Banana Crack is a Sativa with a kick, it’s good and tastes great, strong bananas and ripe fruits. The Cherry is fantastic, smooth sweet and strong. All drying steadily 5 days down.

Man, it must really suck to see that skunk apple plant doing so poorly. It barely grew at all, and those four points on it are supposed to make it look cool, but they're super tiny. It's looking more like a skinny stalk with a few weak branches.

week intel: everything is perfect! stresses : just a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 818 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 382 ppm - 0.7 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 250 ppm - 0.5 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : know your plant tolerance limit of E.C stress once you saw the very very little yellowing on tips of leaves , that's the sign to don't go further , never reach that limit if you want a high quality buds, in my case tolerance is 1.8 and i'll reach to that level only once a week to cause precision stress , love your plants and have a happy growing!

The DIY Screen is filling up very nicely by letting it Veg an extra week to try maximise & even the canopy out. Pruning every other day as the growth changes daily. I will be flipping it into flowering within the next few days. I cannot wait! The mother plant where this original clone came from is in its last few weeks of flowering & from what i can see, this is going to be an awesome, fun grow.

🌿 Week 4 – Vegetative Stage – Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Stage: Week 4 Veg Phenotypes: SSH #1 & SSH #2 (Flower-bound) Tent: 8x8 Shared Grow Space Lighting: • Future Of Grow – Black Series 600W • ThinkGrow – Model One LED Control System: TrolMaster Hydro-X and Tent-X Watering: Hand Watering Pot Size: 11L Fabric Pots CO₂: 632 ppm Day Temp: 27°C Night Temp: 25°C Humidity: 57.4% Water Mix pH: 5.83 EC: 1.01 Water Temp: 18.5°C ⸻ 💚 Week 4 – Settling, Stretching, Syncing Four weeks in, and both SSH #1 and SSH #2 are looking incredible compact, symmetrical, and showing zero signs of stress from last week’s transplant. Honestly? We expected at least a little pushback. These are Hazes, after all. You prepare for stretch, for sass, for slow adaptation. But… not this time. They slipped into their 11L fabric pots like they were born there. They’re reaching 7th leaf nodes now, with tight internodal spacing and structure so dense you’d swear they were hybrids bred for micro-grows. And hey, we know veg structure doesn’t dictate flower outcome. These could still blow up, stretch to the sky, and become full-on jungle queens. But for now? We’re appreciating the compact calm before the flower storm. ⸻ 🌬️ The Shared Tent Ecosystem Our 8x8 tent is currently split into two zones: • Zone 1: ThinkGrow Model One LEDs, driven by TrolMaster • Zone 2: F.O.G. Black Series 600W LEDs, also under TrolMaster The environment is fully monitored, precisely tuned, and stabilized for the transitional weeks ahead. With 632 ppm CO₂, 27°C daytime temps, and stable humidity, everything is in that sweet pre-flip zone. We’re hand-watering still, listening to the soil, watching for response, and matching volume to the plant’s breath. ⸻ Feed & Medium – Stability Over Change Same soil. Same nutrient profile. Still working beautifully. No need to tweak what’s working. Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml • Aptus Start Booster – 0.25 ml Roots have claimed their territory. Shoots are responding with balanced, symmetrical growth. ⸻ 🧠 Bro Talk: Expecting the Unexpected Let’s be real, when you grow Super Silver Haze, you kind of expect drama. Maybe a little leaf curl, maybe a delay in root adaptation, maybe explosive node stretch in week 2 post-transplant. But… nope. These girls are calm, confident, even a little reserved. Bro-to-bro? It’s almost suspicious. 😂 It’s a reminder that expectations don’t grow plants. Observation does. We’re staying ready for anything as flower time approaches. ⸻ ❌ What This Week Isn’t: • Not a week for heavy defoliation • Not a training week — their shape is too compact • Not a time to switch formulas — they’re loving it ⸻ ✅ What This Week Is: • A final week of vegetative calm • A snapshot of stability before the flip • A week to appreciate healthy, non-eventful, smooth development ⸻ 🌸 The Flip Is Near Next week we’ll likely flip to 13/11 — not just because they’re ready, but because space is limited. These two girls are sharing a tent with a full house of other cultivars, and it’s getting cozy. We’re preparing now: • Light timers prepped • Trellis nets on standby • TrolMaster thresholds tuned for night temp and humidity shifts They’ve had their moment of calm. Soon they’ll bloom. And that’s when the real Super Silver story begins. ⸻ 📲 Follow the Flower Journey We’ll be tracking every step, every change, every beautiful chaos as they enter the flowering phase. If you’re just joining us: • GrowDiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/dogdoctorofficial • Instagram: @DogDoctorOfficial • YouTube: Dog Doctor official ⸻ ⚙️ Grow Gear Snapshot • Lights: Future of Grow, ThinkGrow LEDs • Control System: TrolMaster Hydro-X and Tent-X • Nutrients: Aptus Holland • Pots & Substrate: Zamnesia Fabric Pots • Airflow: Spider Farmer & TrolMaster 6-inch Carbon Filter Fans • Storage: Grove Bags ( latter but important ) ⸻ There’s beauty in these weeks where “nothing happens.” Because in truth, everything is happening — under the soil, inside the plant, inside the plan. This is Super Silver Haze in its pre-bloom prime. Let’s flip soon and let her write the next chapter herself. 💚 Love to the growers, the dreamers, the students, and the believers.

8/14/17 Sorry for lack of updates. Been feeding the new flowering schedule. It will modify slightly every week, most likely. FloraMicro 4ml gal FloraGrow 1.25ml gal FloraBloom 8ml gal SM-90 2.5ml gal Cannazym 2.5ml Gal Ful-Potential 2.5ml gal Liquid Koolbloom 2ml gal Floralicious Plus 1ml gal ArmorSI 1.5ml gal Florablend 2.5ml gal CaliMagic 3.75ml gal (1 plant started showing def again) FloraNectar 2.5ml gal Drip Clean 0.4ml gal A few things were added, the Photosynthesis Plus and roots excelerator have been removed, Florablend is out next week. It sure is crowded in that tent. Humidity is now being lowered to 45% during lights out as it was spiking during that time. Dehumidifier is on it's own timer and runs during lights out taking a liter or so water out a night. With the canopy that thick for a couple feet vertically and all the way horizontally, i do not want to take any chances with either stagnant or damp air now that most of the girls are actively flowering. They missed a transition week, but they were suffering deficiencies so I had to quickly get them on flowering nutes. All seems good so far except for the very crowded workspace when I do anything in there. I think I am going to drop grow. I REALLY didn't expect them to pass 3 feet but the danger is real. I have just over a foot of space to move my light up, so now seems like a good time to drop FloraGrow

My permanent marker plants are looking really interesting! The short and stocky one with the purple leaves is super vibrant. I love that pop of color against the green of the other plants. It's a little different from the taller plant, which has this really cool stacked-up look to it. I'm curious to see if those stacked-up leaves will change color too. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Added yellow sticky fly traps to all cubes as a preventative measure to avoid infestation of fungus gnats. So far none have been spotted. Defoliated and did a little more LST to all the plants to open up the center and give more light to lower shoots. Blue Dream 3 and Chemdawg 3 started showing some discoloration on the leaves (yellowing around the veins) and also the leaf tips curling down. Did some research and came up with this... Possible diagnosis: - Yellowing around leaf veins could be a sign of Magnesium or Iron deficiency - Leaf tip curling down could be a sign of Nitrogen Toxicity. - Both could be caused by improper ph balance in water Possible solutions: - Applied Botanicare CalMag+ as a foliar feed and added some to the reservoir. CalMag+ contains Calcium, Magnesium and Iron. - Diluted nutrients in reservoir to lower amount of nitrogen being fed to plants. Was feeding them at 1300ppm, lowered it to 1050ppm - Tested runoff and saw it was coming out at 5.4pH so I increased the pH in the reservoir to 6.0. Now the runnoff is testing at 5.7pH, meaning that my rootzone is in the optimal range of 5.5-5.8 Well wait and see how the plants react to these slight tweaks. Hopefully we start to see a nice healthy even green again.

Frosty, thick buds! This is the last feeding for pheno 1 and 2 Added overdrive and stopped big bud The smell is kinda fruity Very sticky Pheno 3 is behind in bud development but very bushy composites m compared to 1 and 2
