Well it was another great week for the Super Silver Haze sisters!! Day 28 for them and they are growing very well👌They have all grown about an inch in height in the last week. Plant #1 has a slight earthy/ fruity smell starting to come out. Her bud sites are slowly starting to fill in nicely. Plant #2 has really filled in and is just a very quick growing pheno. It had the onset of flowering very quick and has just kept going at the same rate since🙌 Only thing about that is she is using way more Phosphorous than the other 2 plants and was starting to show the beginning of a deficiency, luckily It was caught quick and is not affected any of the top new growth or bud site areas. So now she is getting her own nutrient solution with a slightly higher amount of phosphorous. She also has a Strawberry fruity like smell, it is very unique! Plant #3 Is doing great👍 She doesn't have to much of a smell yet, but it does have a hint of a skunky/fruity smell to it according to what my nose is telling me😂 Overall they are growing fantastic with the exception of the slight P deficiency that showed up on Plant #2, Like I stated earlier I believe it is due in part to how fast she is growing and me not thinking to add a little more knowing she was growing faster than the other plants, combined with her position in the tent. Where she is kinda in the overlap of the 1000w HPS lights even though the light is strongest directly under them. Where I have 2 running in a 5'x10' area. So the overlap of them into each other creates quite an even light coverage, most of the time. but sometimes can be stronger than directly under the light depending on the spacing of the hoods/reflectors and type of hoods/reflectors, and that is what was happening here. They where fairly close together so the edge of their light dispersion was reaching almost to the center of the other light creating a pretty intense spot of light in the overlap. So I moved the lights just a little further apart, but did not want to go to far because the plant was loving that much light. and really only wanted to reduce it to help it bounce back from the slight P deficiency, since the more light the more photosynthesis the more Phosphorous😊 Anyways Thanks for stopping by to check things out!!👊 Happy Growing an Plentiful Harvests to All!!🙏

This week went pretty well, but I don't have much time for an update as I literally spent all day trimming up the wedding cheesecake, and now I am heading out of town to coach a baseball tournament. She is growing some nice thick colas, and I am still feeding her the same. I included a video for my final Wedding Cheesecake Harvest, hope you enjoy it, if you have any suggestions for music hit me up! I hope everyone has a great weekend, stay safe, and Blaze On!

Everything went according to plan. From germination the plant displayed a very good development. With no training I believe she gave a very good yield. She always looked very strong with no signs of any risk.

Hey there, week 2 started yesterday, made a reservoir change 12liters of water mixed with remo nutes. Plant looks happy tough Im a bit concerned bout the roots, could it be root rot ? Reservoir temperature sits between 18-21C and I’ve increased the air pumps to 2x 4liter/min

Sunday, 07-08-2022 Plant looking OK. LST'd stems almost fully over pot edge and nodes on the stems developing well. Plant is still lagging behind The Church - Test Grow #6. All plants currently growing seem smaller when I compare the pics to my previous grows at the same age. Only one feed this this past week as I allowed the pots to dry out from the rain in the previous week. Supplemented feed yesterday with my Beneficial Booster. I made a mistake when preparing and put in double the amount of molasses but the plants seem to be tolerating it so far this morning.

Day 47 or so I haven’t measured her so the height can’t be right she’s huge! And getting so heavy. Took some photos of her in the dark while I pretreated the tent for mites or any other fuckers who like to ruin the day. Just in case. Since I recycled soil it couldn’t hurt. She’s beautiful I’m so excited for her to be finished.

🌸 Week 5 Flower – RollerCoaster Haze 🌸 The RollerCoaster Haze girls are thriving in mid-flower, building structure and stacking buds at an incredible pace. Both phenos are stretching into the canopy with strength, white pistils everywhere, and flower sites developing beautifully. The plants are balanced, vibrant, and showing no signs of stress, just healthy, determined growth. 💧 Nutrition & Feeding This week we’ve adjusted the recipe, stopping the All-in-One Liquid completely as the soil and pellets still provide plenty of slow-release nutrition. The focus now is on a lean, targeted bloom feed, keeping the roots active without oversaturating. Current recipe (all at 1ml/L): • Aptus Regulator • Aptus CalMag Boost • Plagron Green Sensation • Plagron Sugar Royal • Plagron Power Buds Solution runs steady at pH 6.0–6.1 with EC balanced to complement the soil’s reserves. The results speak for themselves: stalks, roots, and leaves are thriving, and the flowers are coming on strong. Environment • Soil Temp: ~24°C • Room Temp: ~28–29°C • Humidity: ~65% • VPD: ~1.3–1.4 kPa Airflow, extraction, and monitoring keep the conditions stable. Despite the size of these girls, they’re handling the environment perfectly. 💡 Inner Canopy Lighting – ICL300 This week I want to highlight the role of the ICL300 inner canopy lights. These lights are designed to deliver light where traditional overhead fixtures can’t: deep inside the canopy. Why does this matter? • As plants stretch and leaves overlap, the lower branches and bud sites often receive far less light. Without supplemental lighting, these inner flowers stay smaller, less dense, and less developed. • Inner canopy lights like the ICL300 solve this by pushing photons directly into those shaded areas, ensuring the lower and middle buds get the energy they need to bulk up. Spectrum: The ICL300 units provide a balanced white spectrum with a red push, tailored to maximize flowering response while avoiding heat stress. This means not only are the tops getting stacked, the inner and lower flowers are also swelling, making for a more even, consistent harvest. The difference is visible already: the RollerCoaster Haze girls aren’t just top-heavy. The mid-canopy sites are developing beautifully, with structure filling out in layers instead of just one dominant top. 🌼 Pistils: White Hairs Everywhere At Week 5, pistils (the fine white hairs that emerge from each calyx) are one of the clearest signs of flower development. They serve two major purposes: • Reproduction: pistils are part of the female flower’s reproductive system, designed to catch pollen if it’s present. • Growth indicator: the color, abundance, and orientation of pistils give us a direct look into the maturity of the flower. Some genetics push out bright white pistils, while others lean slightly toward cream, yellowish, or even orange tones earlier in bloom. This variation is completely normal and tied to the plant’s lineage. At this stage, the RollerCoaster Haze girls are full of vigorous white pistils, standing tall and reaching outwards. This shows they are actively building flowers and pushing energy into new calyx formation. It’s also a reminder that this week is about observation: watching how the pistils evolve will tell us not only about maturity, but also about how each pheno expresses itself. Later on, pistils will darken and curl inward as the calyxes swell, but right now, their abundance and brightness are a clear signal of healthy, strong flowering. 🌱 Observations • Bud sites are stacking with strong pistil production. • Inner canopy looks healthy and productive thanks to the ICL300. • Plants remain lush, green, and full of energy. • Root systems are still vigorous, visible at the soil surface. ✨ Reflection Week 5 Flower shows how balance in nutrition, environment, and lighting can work together to create truly explosive growth. By dialing in the recipe, highlighting pistil development, and introducing inner canopy lighting, we’re not only supporting the tops but ensuring that every bud site gets its chance to shine. The RollerCoaster ride continues, and these girls are carrying us higher every week. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

I would be lying if I knew how far her flower phase come, this couple weeks been absence only gave me results, and left me with a catalogue nightmare, but thank goodness my previous posts are dated, so it gives a rough idea, but genes differ within strains, some strain grow vigorously at certain stages, and I think this baby hit her phase. She will be my best tree when it comes bud quantity, when it comes to potency, I will have settle with what I encounter and except the outcome.

A great week for the girls, an explosion of flower growth. They are not the largest Autoflower’s, but they are robust. The main cola is about 9 inches, with tight bud spacing and stacking. The satellite buds are also nice size with some good density. These girls have not shown any issues with the cronk nutrient/dosage that has been given, while some of the others have been more finicky. They are feeling greasy, and have a some good terps starting as I open the tent. RH has been kept between 55-58 % while temps have gotten as high as 81, but typically hover around 78 degrees. They are getting close to a gallon of water at feed time, which is about every 4 days. I’m happy with these girls so far as there are a several weeks left in their cycle. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Overall, the Girls are doing great. #2 is still showing some nitrogen excess, but is doing well. I’ve adjusted her feeding specifically in hopes to correct. #1 is not showing the same issue, and is motoring along. Both are stacking nicely, and are bringing on some smell now, and are sticky to the touch. I estimate about 3 weeks more, but who really knows with Autoflowers? Happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨

10/12 light to medium defoliation. Having issues with humidity so I hope this will help. Lights at 50%. Closest plant is 12in and furthest is 20. Explosive growth. Went as high as 1.4 mS/cm. Going to dial back since I defoliated a bit. 10/14 under mixed nuts at 1.080. Going to use this opportunity to flush at lower EC and add sensizyme since everyone is in some stage of flower. Defoliated and checked for wet spots. All good. 10/16 Super Cropped the 2 tallest plants. Only my second time doing this. 90% sure everything went off without a hitch. Fingers crossed. 10/19 Watered at 1.3ec. 20% runoff. Continue to defoliate as needed. Getting low on verticle space. I think I will be good. Cold front moved through so humidity is finally coming down.

I don’t know where I really went wrong, pretty sure it’s some type of nutrient burn. 100% organic nutrients a 645 blend OmRI listed. I’m using the same organic blend on all of my trees and this is the only one that looks like that, using the HLG 550s temperatures have stayed under 80° and above 70 with more than sufficient airflow!
