Hello Growmies, Week 5 of the G.M.O. grow is upon us, and the ladies are showing their distinct personalities. The tallest plant is now 25 cm, standing proud with a robust stem and that characteristic wide-leaf structure. She's been topped and is bushing out beautifully with 6-8 nodes left to flourish. The second plant, a bit shy at 18 cm, has not been topped yet. She's a testament to the variability of cannabis, as sometimes not all plants align with our schedules. Her smaller stature doesn't mean she won't catch up, but for now, she remains untouched, a potential natural beauty amongst her pruned siblings. Looking at the images, it's clear that the topping has encouraged a fuller canopy in the larger plant. The coloration is deep green, indicating a healthy nitrogen uptake, and the internodal spacing is tight, suggesting good light penetration and strong vegetative growth. The smaller plant, while not topped, has a vibrant color and a vitality that can't be overlooked. With no Tent-X controller in this environment, it's a more hands-on approach, but these G.M.O. girls are thriving under the attentive care they're receiving. Every three days, they've been sipping on a cocktail of Alga Grow, Sugar Royal, Power Roots, and Orca, ensuring their nutritional needs are fully met. This consistent feeding regimen across the grow is paying off with vigorous growth and the promise of an exceptional flowering phase. Stay lifted, Salokin

📆 Semana 6 ¡Qué semanita se ha marcado la Grease Monkey! Ya se nota que está bien metida en floración: los cogollos empiezan a coger buena forma, cada vez más apretados y resinosos. Tiene ese rollo pegajoso que tanto nos gusta, y las hojas cercanas a las flores ya brillan con tricomas por todos lados. Estoy siguiendo con la gama de XpertNutrients, que le está sentando de lujo. No he tocado mucho la receta esta semana, solo afinando un poco el riego para adaptarme al ritmo que lleva. Se nota que está en su punto dulce. Los Adlite siguen demostrando que son una inversión top. Gracias a la buena distribución de luz, incluso las ramas secundarias están desarrollando cogollos decentes, no solo las puntas. En cuanto al ambiente, las temperaturas se han mantenido suaves, entre 22 y 25 °C, y la humedad está en torno al 55%, un poco más alta de lo ideal, pero por ahora sin señales de problemas. Estoy ventilando bien y con el ojo encima por si acaso. El aroma empieza a ser un espectáculo: dulce y cremoso, con ese fondo a gas tan típico de la Grease Monkey. Los tricomas están en su mayoría lechosos, así que aún queda tiempo para que siga engordando y afinando perfil. Crecimiento firme, flores con presencia y resina a punta pala… ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

These are looking solid, I just started lowering ppm today I'm trying to hsrvest these fairly early. I already started the flush for the girl in the 1 gallon pot it finished quicker than then others. Everything is healthy as it could be right now. The heater made such a big difference I couldn't be happier with how these are growing at this point hopefully it keeps up. Been removing fan leaves here and there but I'm trying to hold off until day 21 and I might give them all a pretty heavy leaf strip. I read something saying defoliate heavy on day 21 and 42 to increase yields so I might give that a shot. These lights are the real deal I got a meter and even tho I barely know how to read it I'm getting much better canopy penetration and the flexibility of having 4 separate units instead of 2 is going to come in handy. Soon I will put all the shorter plants on one side and tall on the other and adjust the lights accordingly. If anyone is interested in these lights or a tent or green buzz liquids or rain science grow bags you can use the code bangdang for 10%. Pretty much everything I use will be 10% off with the code so if you want to grow the bangdang use the code. This Corona virus has hit around here and I just want to remind everyone again to do their part and try to stay out of crowded spaces, wash your hands and take care of eachother. It's a worldwide pandemic everyone can relate to and the best way to beat it with the least possible damage seems to be to isolate yourself since younger people can carry it without any symptoms. It can be easy to transmit it to your parents or grandparents that might have a weaker immune system. Better safe than sorry. I need the NBA back asap too The code ' bangdang ' will get you 10% off at the follow companies. @rainscience_growbags @growlightscience.led *NEW @greenbuzzliquids *NEW @gorilla_grow_tent Gorilla grow tent discounts extend to all companies affiliated with grow strong industries which inclue @super.closet Lotus Nutrients Kind LED grow lights

🌸 Permanent Marker – Week 3 Flower Update Genetics: Permanent Marker (Zamnesia Seeds) Project: Dognabis Cup Example Grow 🌍 ⸻ 👑 Pheno Differences – A Tale of Two Sisters This week, our two Permanent Marker phenos are really stepping into their own identities: • Pheno #2 – steady and compact at ~90 cm, balanced and symmetrical, a queen that keeps her structure tight. • Pheno #1 – aiming straight for the sky 🚀 … currently standing at ~1.95 meters! A true rocket, stretching nearly twice the size of her sister while still keeping the same elegant leaf formation and bud structure. It’s fascinating to see two very different expressions of the same genetics side by side, a reminder of the beauty of phenotype variation and why selective growing is such an art. ⸻ 🌱 Why Week 3 Flower Matters Week 3 is one of the most critical weeks in flowering. Here’s why: • The plants are finishing their initial stretch and stabilizing in height. • Bud sites are setting in, pistils multiplying, and the true architecture of the flowers begins to show. • Nutrient demand shifts from pure vegetative growth into a more balanced call for energy to support flower production. This is the week where the plant defines her frame for the buds to come, too much stress or poor nutrition here can limit yield and structure later on. ⸻ 💧 Nutrition – Simple & Effective We’re keeping it straightforward, leaning on the Aptus Holland super Soil and organic program: • All-in-One Pellets – mixed in the soil from the start, slowly releasing balanced nutrition. • Regulator – helps with nutrient uptake and strengthens the plant structure. • Top Booster – added gently to encourage early bud development. • CalMag – to support strong cell walls and avoid deficiencies. The beauty of this system is its simplicity: the soil does the heavy lifting with the pellets, while liquid supplements fine-tune the performance. It’s a sustainable and efficient way to grow, avoiding overfeeding while keeping the plants happy. ⸻ 🌡️ Conditions – Heat & Resilience Temperatures have been on the high side — a challenge in many summer grows. Still, the girls are holding up beautifully: • Room temp: peaking around 31°C • Humidity: ~60% (a bit higher over the last few days) • Soil temp: ~25°C • PPFD (PAR): • Pheno #2 (compact at ~90 cm): 760–780 μmol/m²/s • Pheno #1 (tall at ~1.95 m): 1,000–1,100 μmol/m²/s, reaching closer to the light This difference in PPFD is a natural result of their height difference — with Pheno #1 stretching closer to the light, she’s getting a more intense dose. It’ll be interesting to see how she handles the higher intensity compared to her more compact sister. 💡 Grower’s Note – Balancing Different Phenos Under One Light It’s common in multi-pheno runs to have plants finishing at different heights. Here are a few ways to manage light distribution and avoid stress or uneven growth: • Raise the fixture slightly to reduce intensity for taller plants. • Dim the light (if possible) to bring PPFD down into the sweet spot, while adding supplemental side or under-canopy lighting to support the shorter pheno. • Low-stress training (LST) or gentle bending/tucking of the tallest colas can help bring the canopy closer to even. • Stools or risers under shorter pots can bring compact phenos closer to the light. Every grow space is unique, so it’s all about finding the right balance to keep both phenos thriving. Even in the heat, both phenos are thriving — a testament to both the genetics and the resilience of plants grown in living, well-prepared soil. ⸻ ✨ Summary • Week: 3 of Flower • Highlights: Stretch finishing, bud sites forming, pistils stacking • Pheno #1: ~1.95 m tall, strong stretch, receiving 1,000–1,100 PPFD • Pheno #2: ~90 cm compact, balanced, receiving 760–780 PPFD • Nutrition: Aptus Holland organic super soil program (pellets + Regulator + Top Booster + CalMag) • Conditions: Hot but stable; humidity up to ~60%; both phenos adapting beautifully ⸻ 🌿 Reflection – The Beauty of Pheno Diversity Pheno diversity can be both a challenge and a gift. On one hand, it asks the grower to adapt, balancing light, nutrition, and space for two very different personalities. On the other hand, it’s a privilege: seeing how the same genetics can express themselves in unique ways is part of the magic of growing. It reminds us why documenting and sharing is so important, because every plant has a story to tell, and together, they teach us more than any single run ever could. ⸻ 🏆 Dognabis Cup – Officially Opening! This week also marks an important milestone outside the grow room: the Dognabis Cup is officially opening! 🎉 📦 The welcome packs are arriving at participants’ doors, and growers are already starting germination. Soon, diaries will begin to appear, and the Cup will truly come to life. A few notes for everyone joining: • The more complete and detailed your diaries are, the better your chances of winning. Sharing not just the results, but the process, is what this Cup is about. • Every participant received two genetics — one autoflower and one photoperiod. That means two chances to win 🌱🌱 • This Cup is about more than competition: it’s about sharing experiences, learning from each other, and celebrating the plant together. From my side, I want to wish everyone the very best of luck. May your seeds sprout strong, your flowers shine bright, and your journey be joyful. 💚 Let’s make this first Dognabis Cup an unforgettable experience. ⸻ This week closes with a sense of wonder — two sisters, same genetics, but two completely different stories unfolding. 🌿 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Holky pořádně vyrostly. Všechny jsou ve skvělé kondici i přes vysokou vlhkost. Díky vysoké vlhkosti ale téměř nepijí, což mi dělá starosti a proto jsem se rozhodl objednat odvlhčovač vzduchu. Prozatím jim dám méně vody než obvykle. Každý den odeberu 2 listy z každé rostliny pro lepší cirkulaci vzduchu. Tento týden jsem nainstaloval SCROG síť jako podporu. Shogun 1-5 od přepnutí na květ již zdvojnásobil výšku. Shining Silver Haze příliš nevyrostla a musel jsem ji trošku zvednout. V budoucnosti bude potřebovat defoliaci protože roste příliš hustě a s velkými listy. Haze Berry 2 má úzké listy které dobře propouští světlo a to se mi líbí. Haze Berry 1 si udržuje svůj kompaktní vzhled a proto jsem ho musel hodně zvednout, jinak by nedostávala žádné světlo. Doufám ze z ní bude hezká bonsai. D72/FD9 Pondělí: Odebral jsem ze spodní části rostlin několik listů a malých větví, ke kterým by se nikdy nedostalo světlo. D74/FD11 Středa: Ke každé rostlině jsem nasypal 50g guanokalong powder a 25ml guanokalong palm tree ashes. Rozpustil jsem 2 tablety RQS Easy Bloom v 10 litrech vody + 8ml (0.8/l)RQS bio Flowering Booster Bigger Flowers + 30 ml biobizz alg-a-mic +30ml biobizz bio heaven. Každá rostlina dostala 1L tohoto roztoku s EC 1,2 D76/13 pátek Jedna special Kush nevypadá dobře. Začaly mi hnědnout listy.. druha special kush která s ní sdílí květináč je v pořádku.. netuším co to muze být.

So i have finished LST by end of week 4 and did start with removing low budsights and branches below the cannopy so that i would get more likely big equal compact buds instead of the fluffy not so yum buds. I plan to not defoliate any more than i have right now, unless there's a leave throwing shade onto a potential big budsights i might remove the leave in order to get that budsight maximum light it could have. Growing really is a big learning curve, like by now i have learned so much about to tell signs of the health state of a plant. Like one plant got slightly yellow leave tips, because it got nutrient burnt probably. Like when i noticed the tips i kind of digged into plant health and telling health state by colour, appearance of the leave. Really starting to enjoy the process of growing, like adjusting LST bit by bit, starting to see rewards of it more and more. Also actuelly noticing things that werent the best decision which i can definetly improve on by the next grow. Cant wait to see the end results, i really hope i get terpenes on a decent level. Since for me it became such a enjoyable thing to just smoke weed that actually is tasting lovely

Que pasa familia, otra vez estamos actualizando otra semana más y es que es la primera semana de floración, ahí van todos los ejemplares echando ese último estirón. Al tener varios tamaños decidí poner otro armario y estarán en 2 armarios uno de 150W y otro de 100w todo Mars hydro. Añadí big bud y bud candy a las dosis de riego , así fomentaremos y estimularemos la floración de los ejemplares. El ph siempre regulado y de margen entre 6.2 /6.5 por lo demás nada nuevo. Nada más hasta aquí es todo , buenos humos 💨💨💨.

Brothers and sisters farmers. My job here is over! Growth was rather difficult because of the heat, but I believe that this strain is the only one who perhaps kept more than all the others, rediscovering to give me the solid nuggets! Greetings to all of you, fantastic Weed friends Happy and abundant harvesters

Today is the beginning of week 5, 1 week since i began this diary. She is making excellent progress, , I am not sure what the yellowing is. Potassium, phosphorous, salt buildup, pH issues? Not sure. I just received my pH meter and Up Down solutions. So now I can keep better track of her. I highly recommended this strain, she grow so really fast, trains well, and her aroma is the best I've personally found, a mixture of cotton candy, skunk and mint. She's is amazingly beautiful in her bud stacking and wow! Those trichomes. She has a CBD content of 11% (average strain %). For the beginner and for medicinal value this strain is perfect to get to know a little better

And there ready along with there big sister 67 days in flower to achieve the best smell I’ve ever smelt, these plants weren’t touched at all, not one leaf was removed throughout the entire grow, no nutrients, no PH the water, and I think it just shows for its self. same plan for drying and curing as the big one, will be back with a smoke review. Thanks for stopping by 👊🏻

Day 62, harvest day. I will update after the drying and curing process. Wish I could've let them go a little longer but had to harvest slightly early. For my first attempt I'm happy with how the ladies turned out! Nice gassy smell, big sticky dense buds, great colours and 81g altogether wet trimmed. Lost one due to growers error but I've learnt a lot for next run. I will be growing one Auto Chem OG along side one Auto NL x BB from Oasis Genetics. Have a great day and happy toking! 🍃💨

Day 36 to 42 I haven't been able to strap down Stardawg #2 (bottom left) much because I cracked the stem slightly. It's healing fine and not a major concern but I'd rather hang on a bit. # Day 36 - Fed 410ppm full strength to FR1 - Fed 360 ppm half bloom(1:2 bloom:veg) to rest until they are flowering more. # Day 38 - Fed 710 ppm full strength to FR1 (I am going to start boosting higher now, I should have been at this strength at week 3-4 - 360ppm half bloom to the rest # day 40 - 810 ppm to FR 1 - 610 ppm to rest 5:1 veg to bloom. See nutrients ratios above # Day 41 - Plants were looking dry and I was nervous about how many nutes I fed them so I fed them water PhD to 5.8. - FR1 FLUSHED with 5.8. I chickened out 🐔
