Esa familia, 2 semana de floración, salió un macho, espero no llevarme más sorpresas por lo demás todo prosigue igual están tirando preflores hembra y pues ahí van el armario grande tuve que practicar un crooping en las puntas para que no se me fuesen de altura mucho y así estimulo las ramas laterales a tirar hacia la luz. Alimentación normal bases y big bud con bud candy , yo creo que algo sencillo y básico que les sienta fenomenal a las plantas. Iremos viendo El Progreso estas semanas a ver cómo va esta variedad que tal rinde. Buenos humos familia

These ladies did'nt stretched much so far in week 2 but that could be due to the light intensity and distance I had it at in week 1 of the stretch period. This strain is really starting to show signs of that Gassy, Sweet, Creamy smelly that I was looking for and so far these ladies have been a breeze to grow.

Plants are loving their new pots and are drinking a lot - 500 mL each per water, 2x daily, which is enough for some runoff. Had to turn the light down to 75% to maintain lower heat since it gets very hot here in the summer.

That is my 2nd grow, so i tried some Lst. I use two tents and change positions depending on needs and size of the plants. I did half a Pack of "Monster Bud Mix" (Zamnesia) in the soil, now i feed little amount of Plagron (i dont feed every watering). She made no bigger problems (sometimes she showed signs of lightstress, iguess - i am still figuring out why), but i am a noob in this game and others would have better results. From day to day she looks more delicious. In all i like the result of this strain. 1 of 1 germinated august 28th.

🌿 Lava Cake – Week 5 (First Week Flower) | Pre-Bloom & Heat Talk 🌿 The Lava Cakes have officially stepped into their flowering tent… though, to be fair, they’re still enjoying a little extra veg time before showing pistils. Both phenos are healthy, lush, and stretching beautifully, clearly ready for the show ahead. ⸻ 📸 Photo Studio Glam We took them out for another studio shoot, bright lights, clean background, and every angle showing off their deep greens and perfect branching. Soon, their beauty will be dressed in flowers, but for now, the leaf structure alone is worthy of the spotlight. ⸻ 🌡️ Current Conditions • Room Temp: 31°C • Humidity: 50.3% • VPD: 2.23 kPa • PPFD: 766 µmol/m²/s • Soil EC: ~2.0 • Soil Temp: 25.6°C Yes, the temperature is running hot — AC unit is on the way to lock it back into our ideal zone. ⸻ 💬 Heat in the Grow Room – Risks & Benefits Potential Risks: • Faster substrate drying = more frequent irrigation needed • Higher transpiration rates can stress plants if roots can’t keep up • Slightly increased risk of light stress at high PPFD without proper cooling • Possible reduced terpene retention if sustained into late flower Possible Benefits (short term in veg/pre-flower): • Accelerated metabolism — plants grow and stretch faster • Increased water/nutrient uptake (if well-fed and watered on time) • Can improve CO₂ usage efficiency if levels are high enough Bottom line: As long as they’re hydrated, fed, and ventilated, short bursts of high temp are manageable. But for flowering, we want to keep daytime temps closer to 24–28°C for optimal quality. ⸻ 💧 Watering Strategy We water when the soil dries to about 25% moisture remaining, this encourages: • Stronger root growth searching for water • Better oxygenation of the root zone • Less risk of root rot in warm temps Right now: They’re drinking daily due to the heat, so we’re feeding daily as well. ⸻ Current Feeding (per L of water) • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml With the increased drinking rate, nutrient uptake has increased — meaning no signs of deficiency, just steady lush green. ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC installation will stabilize temps, allowing tighter VPD control • First signs of pistils should appear within the next 7–10 days • We’ll begin adjusting feed ratios for early bloom once flowers set • Light intensity will climb further as stretch continues ⸻ 💚 Closing Note: This week is all about momentum, heat or no heat, the Lava Cakes are pushing upward, prepping themselves for a heavy flower load. The environment tweaks are on the way, and we’re building them the perfect stage for their bloom performance. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

We are entering week 9 now! She’s an absolute beast! Smells is strong but very fresh and tasty. The upper buds seems to be ready to harvest but I think I will give the whole plant another week until chop, chop :)

The Olympia Auto is now in its second week of flowering, and it's producing large, beautiful pistils with a strong, heavy aroma. While I expected more vertical growth, the secondary branches are stretching nicely, and the flowers are becoming more prominent and stunning by the day. Environment: This week started with a cold snap, with temperatures dropping to a minimum of 5°C and a maximum of 15°C. A light rain has also increased the humidity. I believe this stress will enhance resin production, though it may slow the intensity of flowering, just as affected the plant during the vegetative stage. Watering: I've reduced fertilization and am watering sparsely, about once a week. Fertilization: I'll not fertilize anymore, the plant now has everything it needs in the substrate. Pest Control: The Beauveria application, previously every four days, is now down to once a week. Remarkably, I’m entirely pest-free at the moment, even the occasional intruders are gone, which is something I never thought possible, even if it’s temporary. Training: I haven't performed any training or other procedures on this plant—it's growing naturally from seed. Expecting: I'm eager to see how the buds develop and, most importantly, to experience their aroma.

Blüten werden inzwischen sehr Harzig und der Duft nimmt zu. Dem Giesswasser wird täglich 1:10 Jauche zugegen. Zu dem jedes zweite Gießen Pro Sugar von Grow Pro ein Kohlenhydrat Blütedünger(von der Mary Jane ein Tester). Zu dem gibt es ein bis zweimal in der Woche Seafeed Xtra von envii. Die ersten Blätter haben sich unten entfernt daher gebe ich gerade wieder Stickstoff zu den Pflanzen. Auch wenn es nur noch diese Woche war danach nur noch Blütedünger. Zu dem habe ich Basilikum gepflanzt, Dill, Ringelblume und Koriander gesäat am Anfang der Woche und zum Ende noch Lupine und Rot Klee.

4th week of veg and everything is going beautifully ❤️.. we've been rotating pots every few days or so to encourage them to grow uniformly but 1 of the plants is a bit of a runt..I think its just the way it is..they're all using training ties now and couldn't look happier at the moment, which makes me happy! ❤️🌱..thanks for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! 😽💨

Flipped to flowering this week. My dumbass accidentally said Sweet Seeds is from Venezuela - they are actually based in Spain! Their Tropicanna Poison F1 is a BEAST! Being part auto, it is clearly starting to outperform the others.

The Sour Diesel is definitely in need of some nuts, came back from my 2 weeks vacation and it's looking a little too light for my taste . Will be feeding it some flowering mix pretty soon
