We are on the start of week 5 !! These ladies are going strong , I over watered a bit so I got some discolouration but its all good ( From when I transplanted ) but they seem to be unaffected and rocking and rolling ! I lowered the dose of nutrients I'm finding 520PPM to be a bit to much right now and that's only mixing 1.5ml / l of each solution so I've reduced it to 1ml of each. Looking to top these ladies this week to get started on some of that training ! A big thank you goes out to everyone who stops in to support the diary much appreciated ! Happy Growing! -V.G Day#26V Ladies are responding well to watering , going to start allowing 1 extra day in between watering's to really dry up! Day#1 Since watering 1 cup at 520PPM Day#27V Pictures N/A. Ladies are growing gonna let them finish node before topping . Day#2 Since watering 1 cup at 520PPM Day#28V Pictures N/A. Almost done pushing up the 5th node then I'm going to top them ! Day#3 Since watering 1 cup at 520PPM Day#29V Pictures N/A. Almost ready to top 1 more day or so !! Watered ladies 1 cup each at 150PPM ( B52 only PH 6.3 ) Day#30V Topped both ladies now the training can start !! Day#1 Since watering 1 cup each at 150PPM Day#31V Ladies dont seem to mind to have been topped . Just waiting for them to heal now ! Day#2 Since watering 1 cup each at 150PPM Day#32V Pictures N/A. Ladies looked thirsty so I watered them 1/2 L each at 320 PPM. Recap: The ladies did well this week , they grew enough for me to top them and now we are just waiting for them to heal up nicely before applying LST . I find these plants like to stay tight so it might take some additional training to open up the canopy to maximise my yield . Other then that nothing really to complain about increased the water given to plants per feeding because Im finding the medium isnt staying as moist as it should be . Stay tuned !

Week 4 Veg Report - TrolMaster Chronicles 🌱 What a week it’s been in the garden! We finally transplanted the Papaya Zoap into its final Autopot, and let me tell you, this plant is something special. Though her roots weren’t quite where I wanted them to be yet, the move was needed to help her catch up with the rest of the crew. She’s already looking fantastic in her new home, and I have no doubt she’s about to explode with growth in the coming days. Sometimes, you just have to trust the process, and I’m feeling like this is one of those moments. It’s almost as if the room itself is taking on a life of its own. 🌿 In fact, I’m starting to believe that what we’re building here is something greater than ourselves—there’s this energy in the room, a feeling of everything coming together perfectly. I can’t wait to see how this journey unfolds! Dialing in the VPD with TrolMaster’s Tech Now, let’s talk VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and how I’ve been keeping everything in check with the Tend-X and the incredible (DSH-2U) Humidity Station. VPD is crucial to plant health—it’s all about finding that perfect balance between humidity and temperature to optimize transpiration and nutrient uptake. The (DSH-2U) Humidity Station, connected directly to my humidifier, has been an absolute game-changer in this regard. With its real-time data and automation, it allows me to monitor and adjust the RH with pinpoint accuracy. Simple yet brilliant, the (DSH-2U) Humidity Station is keeping my room at the sweet spot I need. Whether I’m tweaking the settings from my phone while I’m out and about or just fine-tuning things while relaxing at home, this machine does it all. It’s like having an extra pair of hands in the grow room—and when you’re managing something as complex as VPD, that’s invaluable! And yes, the TM+ Pro App—let’s not forget how awesome it is. I’m adjusting my grow room from the couch, the car, or even the bathroom 😜. I’ve said it before, but this app is making growing easier than ever. Feeding the Girls: The Perfect Blend 🌱 We’ve upped the game by adding CaMg-Boost at 0.25 ml/L to the feeding schedule. Along with the 1 ml/L of the all-in-one liquid, this brings the TDS up to 320 ppm, with a pH of 5.99 and solution temperature of 24.8°C. In the soil, readings are around 415 ppm, with temperatures hovering around 25°C The plants are absolutely thriving, and I can already see the difference this new feed is making. I can’t help but have a bit of fun with this process—it feels like I’m spoiling them with the best of the best. And they’re rewarding me with beautiful growth and vibrant green color. You know how it is, with the right care and attention, these plants are truly becoming a masterpiece in the making. 🌱 Shoutouts 💚 Big shoutout to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the phenomenal gear that’s making this grow smoother than ever. Also, massive thanks to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrition, and of course, to the community here on GrowDiaries—you guys keep the energy alive! 🌱 Last but definitely not least, shoutout to all the seed banks supporting this journey. You’ve been a huge part of this process, and I couldn’t do it without you! Remember, for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and updates in real time, head over to my Instagram and YouTube channels @DogDoctorOfficial. We’ve got tons of epic content lined up, and you won’t want to miss it! P.S. Let’s talk about the new Model One LED Bars—these beauties are not only powerful but super efficient. I’ve been able to dim them down, save on electricity costs, and still maintain an incredible PAR and spectrum. It’s all about fine-tuning the balance of power and performance, and these lights make it easy to get the best results while being eco-friendly. Whether you’re running them full throttle or dialing it back, you’re still getting optimal growth conditions for your plants. That’s the kind of innovation that takes your grow to the next level. 💡 Growers Love to all 🌿💚

I’m driving myself crazy trying to figure out what to do. I’ve been on the web, sent an email for help and scoured social media. I hate feeling like I’m harming my girls. I just got one plant doing a little better. Now the other has joined in. Gelato is a rock star.

Thank you for checking out week 3 of my Stracciatella DWC grow! Quite a bit of growth this week, despite me running into quite a few problems this week, we had a heat wave and I was not prepared, causing some heat stress. I topped the plant at the 5th node and added some LST anchors, I will be topping her a few more times whilst low stress training . I'm still going with the same strategy of adding organics during the weekend, but I'm still not sure about it, especially not with the heat, Power roots does discolour my roots and causes some black gunk to accumulate at the top, I don't like that. speaking of discolouring, Biobizz CalMag makes my water super cloudy, which I hope is normal. I'll be moving my tent to a better climate soon, I do believe the heat further stunted my plant, She's still doing well however and it should be smooth sailing going forward, Unless nature throws something else my way. That's it for this week, I also shuffled some of the week 1 and germination photos around, since the 3 day week was bothering me. Thank you for checking out my Diary, Keep growing!

2 Girls 1 Cup finally made it to the finish line. Wedding Glue trichomes started turning yellow damn near overnight. Godzilla Cookies still covered in milky frost. I don't have scales, so I'd rather not estimate on wet weight. Wedding Glue is hefty though, thicker than I thought she'd be. I have a number in my head what she'll dry out to, but I'll share that later lol. Chopped Godzilla Cookies up, bagged in two gallon zip locks and slapped in the freezer for a rainy day. I have one 1lb Grove Bag, but after looking at it, and the flowers I have hanging... I may need more grove bags so I don't compact the nugs and can keep the headspace needed for the two way whatever the f these bags do. The SMELL is out of this world. Wish I had words for all the aromas smelled while harvesting. From lemon/lime, candy, grapefruit, diesel, etc.. Wedding Glue is going to be some fucking DANK!! The ooey gooey parts of Godzilla Cookies will turn into a nice bubble hash someday in the future. The list of things learned along the way this time round.. : 1- DONT put diff strains in same RES. This means the same pot as well.. many reasons not to. 2- Keep the RES that will hold roots BASIC, and keep the fancy shit in the external RES (if ya got one). Easier maitenance and minimal risk of root damage. 3- Waterfarms are baddass, but the drainage holes from the upper grow chamber are too few and too small. I added many more to it prior to using this time round and roots still wrapped the bottom of it like they did the RES below. 4- check calibration on your meters frequently... 5- have spare ventilation equipment on standby incase something fails. Don't want the smell getting out, top priority.. 6- plan your wiring for easy movement/adjustment when needed. Zip ties are cool and all.. until you have to cut and replace a hundred of em to move a fan from one pole to another. I know I'm missing a few things and will add them when they come out of long term memory. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my current grow. For all those that stuck around through all my rambling, May God bless you and your future harvests. Will update the smoke report when dry/cured. Keeping environment around 70F, and RH 58%.

Good finish by cookies elephant trunk. I’m going to take on the elements and finish these outside. I’m going to fill tents out as dry tents Dr. Zymes as preventative and active pest control. No BT just 👁️ balled those worms

To update, keeping pics up to date for now

The plants are healthy. The Fastberry is getting a nice color. The Zkittlez has stayed smaller than the others, I was looking for a compact variety. The Rhyno Rider is very spread out, as are the Grapefruit and the G14s. The Stardawg is a little later than the others, I think.

Og kush x ??? Smells like nothing I've grown before and I like it 🔥

First early week of flower!! So far so good this is my first grow and I have big hopes for it

Lots of nice buds sticky and smelly :) ,412g of wet weight with stalks ,very nice outcome for first grow ,as a newbie I think I grew a nice plant with awesome buds ,looking forward when ready and cured .thanks for likes guys . Grow Diaries TOP 👍🏼 So happy guys ,thanks to you all for likes .

Taking care and paying attention to the VPD where the leaf temp is 2 degrees or so cooler than room temp. I've noticed a real difference; they look happy and healthy. They are 31 days old from planting and am wonderring if I should turn them; ceilings are 8'. I'm wondering why the petioles and the internodes are reddish colour is this a deficiency? Watching plants for weird looking stuff. Feeding once a week and foliar spraying pro-silicate once a week. Using amounts listed on bottles or a little less. Only spraying within 20 minutes of lights going out. Using a sprayer that allows you to spray upside down and has a very fine mist . Also wondering if I should use a surfactant in the spray bottle and if so would sunflower lecithin work for cannabis? Just started using a light rail with 2 sf4000, I will be adding another light shortly. Fimmed the wedding cake twice. 2 weeks apart.. Only fimmed the others once. I think it's coming along ok, I' do alot of reading to try to make the girls their best. It sure is a learning curve! We're all trying to grow our own medicine. Happy, healthy growing and smoking!

Steady growing a very rapid pace Got all 11 on the drip irrigation using the Growlink controller they are loving the environment just praying everyday Also put up the trellis net in preparation for the flip on week 5

I am shocked😱...because... Overwatering problem got more serious than last week on one bimba, that is not cooping well as others with water is getting.(I am on auto pot system) I really think that forgetting to put the clay at the bottom of my vase on the airdome will give me some challenges. Me and my bambine are ready for the fight!👊👊👊 We will not give up👽

Plants taking to the technique very well imo. Particularly the back right one, which has created a almost perfect dome shape. I did miss a watering and they didn't like that atall. As I usually wait for the soil to be dry before I water again, so if I miss a watering, they get extremely dry. All the leaves dropped down completely vertical, I thought it was all over, but they bounced straight back with the next watering. 🙌 The plant has now been topped twice, once to creat the initial + shape, and again to split each stem of the + into 2. So each plant now has 8 main stems.

Last two weeks for these girls! there is a visibile issue on leaves, I bet on nitrogen toxicity... Lowered the feed and let it run until the final flush. I dont see super duper fatty buds but I'm happy with it and wait for the weight of the harvest ...

I saw the first pre flowers today. She looks healthy, great growing. Still struggling to get ph down. Watering with 5.8 ph water.
