Purple Lemonade , Gelato 1&2, LAK 2&3 are all just about done theyll be coming down over the weekend or early next week. T26, Pineapple Express, Mexican Airlines, LAK 1, 6 Shooter Blue Dreamatic and Cream Cookies are all on the flush but will need a few more before chop. This tent reeks up the whole block it's pretty intense skunk in the driveway right now. There will be one more update I'm guessing for most of these before the harvest update. This was the most successful autoflower crop I've had in a long time I think theres some really good quality buds on some of these. I'll put the video up now and as I go thru the pics theyll be uploaded so if your interested come back tmm for the pics.

Esta sería la semana 5 de floración y no la 4 ya que no pudimos subir la semana anterior. Seguimos avanzando una semana más en la que van engordando poco a poco sacando buenos colores y buenos tricomas. Saludos!!

Week 9 (27-3 to 2-4) 27-3 Temperature: 25 degrees (lights on) 18.9 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 63% (highest) 55% (lowest) Added 15L to the reservoir. 28-3 Temperature: 25.1 degrees (lights on) 18.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 56% (lowest) 29-3 Temperature: 27.2 degrees (lights on) 19.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 48% (lowest) As you can see on the pictures, the Chemdog #2 has a flat stem. I dont know how, but the same happened with the grow before this one, but to a Biscotti from a different seed bank. I never seen this before, so i am really surprised to see this happening back to back. Does anyone know if its just coincidence or can lightstress or LST/HST cause this? 30-3 Temperature: 25.3 degrees (lights on) 20.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 54% (lowest) 31-3 Temperature: 25.8 degrees (lights on) 20.8 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 56% (lowest) Today i decided to turn of the reservoir/autopots. I think the plants are overwatered, and because of that probably have light stress and other problems. Also, it can be that i underfeeded them, and that the PH was too high. I turned the light down to 40% strength aswell. 1-4 Temperature: 23.6 degrees (lights on) 20.6 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 57% (lowest) 2-4 Temperature: 22.6 degrees (lights on) 19.8 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 56% (lowest) No pictures.

Today was the day! Both girls have been chopped at day 55 of flower. Reason being is after 2 days of plain water **(I’m aware this is a short flush, but nutes were tapered down in the week leading up to this, then with plain non pH’d water there was 6 fertigations, 4l per plant per time over the last 48 hours - the runoff has been coming out plain 0.3EC tap water, same as the inflow).** The trichomes that we’re only cloudy on top had began to change over to amber and the lowers that were clear became milky after having plain water so I pulled them down for peak potency. Maybe could have had a couple days more but not the end of the world I am still very happy so far with the result from what I can see so far. I have just removed the largest fan leaves off and separated into branches or more like clusters of tops on branches. In a couple days I will probably remove a little more leaves or if they are drying evenly and nicely I will just remove them when I dry trim. They are now hung inside the tent, aiming for 18-20°C temps & set to 50% RH, hooked up to a Inkbird Humidity Controller and a dehumidifier. Hoping these will take a week to ten days to dry so the flavour and smell is not lost. Both Phenos of this strain have come out in beautiful colours under the torch on video, I can’t wait to see them both when their dry and all trimmed up in all their glory. That’s all for this week, in 7-10 days hopefully they are dry and I will update with the harvest week with the final weights and some trimmed up pictures! 🤙🏻🙏🏻💚

Beautiful flower full of trichomes. Smell and test fantastic. Very fast flowering. She was done on day 49 but I cut her down few days later. I love the strain, the only thing that I will like this strain to have is a better yield. Beast quality buds I ever grew.

Aug 17: Auto Overdose is a nice plant but it’s not an auto. I started this one late and only topped it once thinking it was an auto. Other growers have noticed it isn’t an auto too, so I forced it in the dark garage. Flowering has to be started by the end of July here or it won’t finish in the fall. The flowers are forming quickly and I suspect this is actually Overdose Fast. So far so good, and good genetics for a Fast plant. Aug 18: no UV light today unfortunately but it was decently sunny. Scrog net certainly seems like a good idea. This plant is asymmetrical because I broke one of the two main stems a couple weeks after topping. This changed the shape of the plant so it’s become one-sided as if I was growing it up against a wall. Lots of nice lower branches came up so she looks pretty good now.

Semaine 3 - Phase Végétative : Journal de Culture pour la Dognabis Cup (Concours DogDoctor)Strain : Zamnesia Permanent Marker Système de culture : Hydroponie Ebb & Flow sur billes d'argile expansé Nutrition : Aptus (programme adapté à la phase végé, EC cible à 2.2 mS/cm) Éclairage : 1000W full spectrum, contrôlé par Trolmaster Tent X (augmentation progressive de 10 PPFD par semaine) Contrôle environnemental : Total via Trolmaster (climat, lumière, CO2, VPD) Objectif global : Maximiser la structure buissonnante pour la floraison future, en visant des monstres... mais adaptation forcée au switch précoce ! Salut la team DogDoctor et la communauté Dognabis Cup ! Voici le récap de ma semaine 3 en végé pour ma Zamnesia Permanent Marker. Cette strain est une bête : elle pousse vite, dense et résineuse, mais comme vous le verrez, je dois déjà anticiper un switch en 12/12 plus tôt que prévu à cause de mes autres plantes en avance (qui stressent pour du temps extra en végé). Pas de monstres XXL cette fois, mais on optimise ce qu'on peut avec du LST/FIM et une gestion fine de l'hydro. Nutrition Aptus qui cartonne, et enfin, le pH s'est stabilisé après des débuts chaotiques – plus de corrections quotidiennes, ouf ! État des PlantesLes bébés Permanent Marker sont en pleine explosion : tiges solides, feuilles larges et dark green, avec une bonne ramification grâce au LST et FIM appliqués cette semaine. J'ai plié et attaché les tops pour une canopée uniforme (environ 4-5 nœuds principaux par plante), et topping sur les plus vigoureuses pour booster les côtés. Croissance verticale contrôlée à ~15-20 cm de hauteur moyenne, mais la densité racinaire est top dans les billes d'argile – pas de signes de stress oxygène. Malheureusement, les autres plantes du run (pas en concours) sont déjà en train de s'étirer et demandent du 12/12 ; je vais devoir les stresser (légèrement réduire les nutriments ou eau) pour grappiller 3-5 jours de végé extra ici. Objectif : ne pas dépasser 4 semaines total en végé pour synchroniser le tout. Pas l'idéal pour des colosses, mais la qualité prime pour la Cup ! Environnement et ContrôlesTout est verrouillé via Trolmaster : température stable autour de 24°C (cible), humidité à 70% (parfait pour la végé), CO2 à 900 PPM (maintien manuel pour booster la photosynthèse). VPD optimal à ~0.9 kPa, ce qui colle pile aux recos Aptus pour éviter transpiration excessive. Lumière augmentée de 10 PPFD comme prévu (maintenant à ~679 PPFD moyen en zone flo), et les graphs montrent une belle stabilité – pas de pics chaotiques. Pour l'hydro : marées réduites de 2 min (maintenant ~15-20 min par cycle) et 2 cycles en moins par jour (de 8 à 6), pour durcir les racines sans noyade. Solution à EC 2.2 (up de 0.2 cette semaine pour suivre la faim végé), pH enfin stable à 6.07 (après des ajustements quotidiens les 2 premières semaines – merci les tampons Aptus !). EC solution à 2.16 mS/cm, temp eau à 17.9°C (refroidisseur au top). Mousture moyenne à 90% – bien drainé, zéro anaérobie. Données Récapitulatives de la SemaineVoici un tableau synthétique des stats clés (moyennes sur Mon/Dim/Nuit pour les zones "Plantes" et "Chambre", basées sur les logs app).

Cette semaine, boom – stable à 6.07 grâce aux stabilisateurs Aptus et monitoring Trolmaster. Victoire ! Switch forcé : Les autres plantes en avance m'obligent à floraison précoce (semaine 4 max). J'aurais aimé 6 semaines pour des monstres, mais on priorise la synchro. Plan B : stresser les leaders (réduire EC de 0.1 sur elles) pour +2-3 jours végé ici. LST/FIM : Appliqué mid-semaine – tops pliés, nœuds boostés. Pas de topping supplémentaire pour éviter stress avant switch. Objectifs Semaine 4 (Transition Végé/Flo)Continuer l'augmentation lumière : +10 PPFD encore (cible ~750 PPFD pour fin végé). Légère baisse EC (à 2.0) pour anticiper flo, sans choc. Arrêter LST/FIM : Laisser repousser librement, focus sur récupération. Tirer max de végé : Stresser les autres plantes (eau/nutriments light) pour retarder leur switch – grappiller du temps pour ces Permanent Marker. Monitoring renforcé : VPD

—SETUP— .BOSSLED LED 1800W full spectrum, real power consumption is +-250W. .Grow space 60X100X200(a simple shower box. .AN nutes and other simple additives. .Grow medium is 60% peat, 30% perlite, 10% organic correction(worm castings), 5 gallon fabric pots(18l). —BRIEF— Hi there, I have tried already done this genetic outdoors, in poor lighting and a general purpose nute from Neudorff, yielded 25g dry, in 3gallon pots same medium. So this is a good experiment, lets see indoors how she will compare. —GERMINATION— My germination process always start by scarifying the seeds, i created a little tool for that. I just a little container with sandpaper walls. Shake gently for about 60 secs+, this allows for the water to penetrate better in the seed shell, once you soak. Then i soak overnight from 12 to 20 hours max. From there i either plant straight or use the paper towel method to see the tap root before. If you are a bit on the impatient side seen the tap root is advisable so you see some movement before planting. Lol! —ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS . QUICK ONE . INFO — Chose this strain because is basic and I have to travel for a month soon, and someone else is going to take care for this time. :) Most of our autoflowering feminized strains are easy to grow. This one, however, is so easy to grow that we had to call it Easy Bud. Easy Bud is very similar to the autoflowering strain White Dwarf. THC: 12% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 275 - 325 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 30 - 80 gr/plant Height Indoor: 50 - 60 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 5 - 7 weeks Harvest month: 8-9 weeks after sprouting Genetic Background: White Indica x Ruderalis Type: Sa 15% In 55% Ru 30% Effect: Physical Climate: Mild —RQS EASY BUD GERMINATION UPDATE— My mood said to me to plant straight, so scarify > soak 18 hours +- > plant straight. Seedlings look a bit odd, this one with a purple center, let's give her some days in and see what happens next.

Had to chop a little early and have been pressed for time did a rough wet trim will tidy up later . Didn't do a wet weight just didn't have the time plus I would rather just get the final weight and not be guessing all week if this 4 or 5 time less dry.

new week did a small bit of LST. Not sure if things are imrproving with the calmag but i am seeing more growth but still little brown patched on the leaves but ill stick at it and see how it all goes. I am wondering if i should remove any of the leaves with the brown patches etc but tempted to just let it grow and see where it ends up

I cannot believe how bushy she is! Very very short internode length. I'm wondering if I have an indica dominant plant? 😭 But anyway, she is doing her thing this week. She only grew 9cm this week. Nutrients this time are 20-20-20 NPK powdered fertiliser I'm trying this time around. About 1.2 grams mixed with 10L of water makes ~1000ppm. My clean water alone is ~350ppm of that. I do have a CO2 bag generator thing... It's not doing a lot though. My CO2 meter reads barely over 400ppm.........

7/18 Plants are looking great. I was able to rearrange the plants so they have a little bit more space and so I can get around every plant. I have small random pest damage (i.e. I caught a four lined plant bug while hunting jpn beetles) but not enough h to warrant treatment. I will probably spray before flower. Sun's out amd plants were praying. I rotated a couple and it only took a few hours for them to "straighten out." I went to look again rhis morning and made the final determination to expand the cage. I'm looking for the 2x4's and the wire in the next couple days. The work that ive done now will but me sometime. I wonder how this rain impacted my soil. 7/19 Plants are looking fantastic. The stretch is starting. One purple punch looks like it's beginning to flower. I think I'm entering the transition period. Jpn beetle damage is evident but not significant. I defoliated a leaf with a a leafminwr or something in it. It's so much easier to get around the plants now. I'm seeing some chunks missing sporadically though. Went to the roses out back and found TONS of jpn beetleson top of each other reproducing. They destroyed that rose bush. I'm going to keep it as a trap plant. My dad's girlfriend wanted to spray it but that doesn't make sense as theflowers are all gone. Dad's grabbing the materials to extend the cage today I think. Right now I can get around every plant but the two big ones in the back. I just cant get to the backs of them and they are huge. Almost reaching the top of the cage. A 4'-6' extension will do wonders in flower. Can't wait. UPDATE: Dad got the 2x4's and we assembled the extension and attached it. He's grabbing the wire as I type this. This worked out beautifully. I had no idea how big the blueberry cheese in the 50 gallon was! This extension (4ft i think) is PERFECT! Then I can get a little extra wire and pull it out if I wanted to. I think I have another 2x4 that I'm going to use in the middle. Lots of great pics and a video I'll upload tomorrow. Hot af today and humidity still super high. Even the commercial dudes was surprised I don't have wpm l and that judging by some of my plants structure that I may do better than I think. I certainly hope so. I WATERED 3 GALLONS OVER THE WHOLE GARDEN. The blueberry cheese in smart pots were drooping. They drink far more water than tje others. I would've given more but we are supposed to have thunderstorms. I left my back tarp off for the night. It will increase airflow and wind is down. I feel like this is going to be my year. 7/20 I updated and loaded everything on the app but notjing would save. Did it again in the website hopfully this saves i didnt put it all up. Didn't water the plants today. Bags seemed okay weight wise. Good thing I did the extension yesterday because those three plants were drooping they were so thirsty. I focused most of the water yesterday on those plants that needed it. The others were somewhat dry but still had some weight. Like i said the blc drinks much more water than any of the other plants. I'm impressed with the growth I'm seeing. Especially since I have been being very stingy with the water and I've only fed like twice and that was just the kelp me/you and big bloom in negligible amounts. I'm watching for deficiencies. I'm just not seeing them. I'm picking up the wire and finishing the extension and then rearranging things. I'll update. UPDATE: WATERED 4 GALLONS CONCENTRATING ON THE PLANTS THAT WERE DROOPING THE MOST. FINISHED ENCLOSURE AND INCREASED PLANT SPACE. TRELLIS WILL GO UP THIS WEEK. VIDEOS WILL BE UPLOADED TOMORROW. 7/21 I should've watered more volume last night. I noticed two plants that seemed much lighter than the rest. After some deliberation I gave them each a half gallon of water. One was the purple punch in the 10 that's huge amd the other was that huge blueberry cheese. I think I'm going to swap places with them, take out a pallet and get some other way to elevate that ONE plant and I'll have even more room. Then I'll add my supports. It's a dream working in there now. I noticed some small interior leaves being used up and dieing. I defoliated them but it was only a couple. I'll need to start nutes at some point. Doesn't need it yet though. I'm going to add some kelp me/you for the heat stress. I need to get the watering down better but it's more difficult when they each have different needs. I kinda have to read the plant. I'd rather be overwatered than underwatered. I tried to upload what I could but some won't. UPDATE: I went over to clip off some fencing that was doubled up AND just to check on tge girls. Found two caterpillars (small but hairy so they were older not the inch worms and possibly what has been contributing to damage on those plants. Things are spread out so it will be harder for insects to move from plant to plant and I have better air flow. I worry that leaving my tarp off might lead to high winds and plants not able to take it buf I digress. I'll add supports later. Plants are huge and drinking far more water than I've been giving them. When I got there several were drooped right over and dry as a bone. The bags are essentially all roots now. I mixed up 8 gallons of water and split it between the plants. I gave less to the two Co trainer plants that weren't drooping and the 10 I watered yesterday that wasn't drooping but for the most part the ones that needed if got at least a gallon or more. The others a little under a gallon. It might rain A LITTLE tonight too. Oh, and since it's been so hot I added 1/2 tsp per gallon of kelp me kelp you to help the plants deal with heat stress. I also noticed that some of the very bottom interior leaves are being used up. I have a feeling ill need to switch to nutes pretty soon. Plus I need to suppirt those plants if I'm going to leave that tarp off and Gove them air. Took a video. But it won't upload here. I'll have to wait till tomm. 7/22 Didn't have much timevthis morning bit I dod a video. Boy those plants loved that water and that kelp. This morning everyone was standing straight up at attention. Supposed to get rain last night but didn't. Good thing I watered. I think I'm going to up the water next watering and then again to the 10% mark if necessary. Especially with the Blueberry cheeses. I'm noticing that a FEW INTERIOR leaves are showing nute deficiencies so I'm probably going to have to start feeding soon. I'll update later. UPDATE: Went back over and cut off the extra wire. I'm going to need to water more volume. Specifically on two plants. The two huge blueberry cheese in 20 gallon smart bags dries out much faster than the rest. I'll have to out that on a different schedule or increase the amount given. Next watering will be 1.5 or 2 gallons a plant and it might be tomorrow from what I was seeing. It's super hot and with the added airflow the bags dry out faster. I also went through EACH plant looking for pests and defoliating old leaves that needed it. Plants are still nice and green but a VERY few older interior leaves are showing deficiencies. I know this is Normal especially since they are trying n g to transition to flower. I also saw pest damage on a couple plants. Four lined plant bug. I already found the one on the other plant and killed it but I'm considering doing a spray before flower. I'm thinking either captain Jack as a "catch all", BT which works great but mostly just on pillars or the organocide bee safe 3 in one pesticide. I also have pyrethium and other things. Thus far picking things off manually has been good enough. At the very least they will get an application of BT very soon. 7/23 Held off on watering this morning. Supposed to get thunder storms I DID split a gallon with two blueberry cheese that were the lightest in the 20 gallon smart pots. Thet drink way more. My water volume is going to need to increase. We haven't had nearly enough rain. I'm going to bump it up to 1.5 to 2 gallons each plant which will be 10% for the 20s and a little less for the others. I'm still seeing various pest damage. Nothing bad but I found another couples leaves that were chomped on by a four lined plant bug so I'm debating applying something tonight when I water. I'm also noticing old leaves being used up and some interior leaves showing slight deficiencies. It will be time to start nutes soon. I'll update as I go. UPDATE: GOT THE FEELING I NEEDED TO CHECK THE PLANTS. SOMETHING DODNT LOOK RIGHT ON THE CAMS. WENT OVER AND EVERY PLANT BUT THE TWO I SPLIT A GALLON WITH AND THE PLANT IN THE 50 WERE DROOPED RIGHT OVER. LIFELESS. I SHOULD'VE WATERED THIS MORNING BUT I DIDNT HAVE TIME. I FIGURED THEY COULD WAIT UNTIL NIGHT. EACH PLANT GOT 1.5 GALLONS AT LEAST. I USED SIXTEEN OR SEVENTEEN GALLONS ON THE GARDEN. I GAVE EACH CONTAINER PLANT ONE GALLON AND GOT RUN OFF FROM BOTH. IM NOTICING SKIGHT FADING IN LEAVES BUT IM NOT INTRODUCING NUTES TO UNDERWATERED PLANTS. I THINK 10% IS GONNA BE TGE MAGIC NUMBER. 2 GALLONS EACH. EVEN THE 10 GALLON SMART POT. ALMLST AS BIG AS THE 30S BUT DRIES OUT QUICKER. 7/24 Plants looked fantastic this morning. Defoliated a few leaves that needed it. Showed my commercial buddy and he said things looked fantastic. Since the soils still holding nutes and I'm not seeing many deficiencies I may hold off on feeding. I'm starting early flower now. I will be using nutes soon. I think ive got the watering schedule pretty much down.

41 días desde el cambio de fotoperiodo. Al parecer en mi celo por evitar una sobre fertilización provoque carencia de nutrientes, o mejor dicho, las plantas estaban pasando hambre. Durante esta semana las hojas pequeñas y grandes empezaron a amarillear por lo que subí las dosis de fertilizante y la EC hasta 1.1 (me había mantenido en máximo de 0.8), las plantas reaccionaron bien y se noto el cambio en el tamaño de las flores. En las próximas semanas aumentare la EC hasta 1.5.
