Las plantas se ven bien, hice una pequeña defoliacion para sacar las hojas grandes que hacian sombra directamente sobre otras ramas. Ademas quite algunas de abajo que me complicaban un poco a la hora de regar.

It was an easy harvest as the colas developed nicely. Hardly any popcorn nugs and very little sugar leaves. If the weather had allowed it, I think she could have grown even bigger, but I'm more than happy with the outcome!

Edit: I just wanted to share a couple photos and a video that I took with my new WiFi microscope. Best $20 I’ve spent in a while. Ladies and gentlemen it’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for. Live from the Alaska arena IT’S TIIIIIIME! After 15 weeks in the 4x5 custom tent these ladies standing at 38 inches weighing in at a weight to be determined later are going to get chopped down by rear naked shearing this Sunday Sunday Sunday! We’ll sell you the whole seat but you’ll only need the edge!!!! On the real. These ladies have done their job. They’ve bulked up and gotten rock hard with mad trichomes on the sea of upper bud sites. I had a scare with a plant in a nearby tent that was rescued that was a hermie. ONE site right in front of the intake vent got it and was cut immediately. The rest of them were not affected. This strain is nearly impervious to everything from ph to whatever amount of nutrients you want to feed them in a hydroponic environment. I hit them with a massive 2100 ppm of flora series with fox farms beastie bloomz 0-50-30 in the end and never got the fade or burn. The nutrients have been cut out and it straight water for the duration. Friday starts 48 hours of darkness.

12/11/22 - Added some more soil to each pot because the top roots were starting to show. Mixed in perlite and diatomaceous earth. Watered and fed, giving bloom nutes now along with everything else. About 1000ppm's. After another week or 2 of stretch, will go in and defoliate hard one last time. 12/12/22 - big overnight growth spurt! Upped the nutes a little bit and they seem to have responded well. 12/14/22 - Watered with plain water. 12/16/22 - not much to report, they are continuing to fill out and stretch. Have had to raise the lights several times the past week and a half. Am anxious to defoliate and really see the buds start fattening up, will do sometime next week. 12/17/22 - gave nutes today. CKM is losing more leaves than I want, but seems to be healthy overall. Will have to keep an eye on that. All are continuing to stretch.

This lady has been Transplanted on day 39 since she was planted (may 10th) and I've prepared the 15L pot with the complete line of biotabs using 2 spoons of startrex for every 5L, sprinkled a couple of grams of mycotrex on the transplant hole before putting the plant and then I added 3 slow release tabs one biotab for every 5L of soil, so that's why in this case I added 3, after the Transplant was done I immediately watered the plant with 1ml/L of orgatrex and 1g/L of bactrex, I hope you guys enjoy my work this season!!

Week 4 – Vegetative Stage – Mango Kush (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Tent: 8x8 Shared Environment Environment Control: • TrolMaster Ecosystem (Model One LED by ThinkGrow) • Future Of Grow Ecosystem (Black Series 600W) Watering: Hand-fed Nutrient Line: Aptus Holland (unchanged recipe) ⸻ 🌱 Two Paths, One Queen’s Blood This week marks a defining moment in the journey of our two Mango Kush phenotypes—Pheno #1 and Pheno #2—both sharing the same genetics, but taking very different roads toward flower. ⸻ 👑 Mango Kush #1 – The Trailblazer She’s taken the lead and she knows it. Currently at her 8th or 9th node, she’s branching out beautifully, vigor, symmetry, structure. This girl is showing early signs of dominance, with a wide frame and a hunger for light. Her architecture screams “future canopy queen.” 📸 We took her to the photo studio again this week and wow. She’s a natural in front of the lens. Her structure is clean, confident, and glowing under the full-spectrum light. ⸻ 🌱 Mango Kush #2 – The Rising Sister Much younger, but full of potential. Currently pushing her 4th pair of leaves, this one was a late germination and is only about 2.5 weeks old since she popped above soil. Despite her smaller size, there’s something familiar about her. Her leaf shape and structure closely mimic Mango #1 during her early days, tight internodes, round fans, calm posture. Genetics run strong here. We’re keeping her in veg for as long as possible, but next week we’re flipping everything to flower, which means she’ll start blooming early. It’s not ideal, but it’s necessary, as the older girls (Mango #1, the Lava Cake and the rest of the sisters) are growing fast and space must be balanced. ⸻ 💧 Nutrients – No Change, Still Precision We’re keeping the Aptus Holland formula exactly as it is for this week. The girls are loving it, and there’s no sign of deficiency or excess. Here’s what they’re still getting in each liter: • Regulator – 0.15 ml: Structure, resilience, and stress defense • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml: Building the skeleton • 💧 All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml: A steady and complete base • 🌱 Start Booster – 0.25 ml: For root expansion and early shoot development This balanced, light recipe keeps things clean and focused, supporting both the rapid growth of Mango #1 and the early development of Mango #2. ⸻ 🌡️ Lights, Climate, & Ecosystem Balance Both Mango Kush plants are thriving under dual full-spectrum LEDs: • TrolMaster ecosystem running the ThinkGrow Model One LED • Future of Grow ecosystem running the Black Series 600W Each system is tuned to maintain optimal light intensity for its space and phase. Climate conditions are steady thanks to active airflow, dual controllers, and filtered intake/exhaust setups. 💨 Carbon filters from TrolMaster and Spider Farmer keep the air clean and pure, even though we haven’t reached flower yet, clean air is good air, and early filtering helps prevent environmental noise and pathogens. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect… and What Not To What to expect: • Mango #1 will likely dominate flower structure, showing her potential early • Mango #2 may surprise us with a compact, denser canopy due to earlier light flip • Structural differences will emerge—same genetics, but different timelines = different expressions • Visual comparisons will help us understand Mango Kush’s phenotypic range What not to expect: • Uniform results—they’re the same strain, but on very different developmental clocks • Aggressive training—due to the timeline, we’re letting them grow mostly unmanipulated ⸻ 📣 Final Words – Community & Curiosity We thank you all for reading, growing, and following this journey with us. ✨ Every grow is a conversation between light, root, leaf, and time.

The Smoke of the little bit that I tried was hard to grind and still too wet, I will see how it'll be after the cure. The Bubble Hash Rosin that i made is very delicious and has a pretty chill high.

Tropicana flowers 🌞☀️🌤️🌦️🌧️ Plant is 15 cm high because of low stress training. The length is 31 cm. Day 36: Sun is shining, 15-23 degrees, high humidity. Tropicana gets two liters of pure rainwater. Spend the day in my veggie garden working. In the evening I brought some 🐞for Tropicana because I spottet a few lice. My mood changes drastically as I find spider mites eggs, first and second stadium. Don‘t overthink that and decide to defoliate the plant immediately. I prepare a tee out of the leaves which brings fast relaxation. My mood is much better now. Day 37 In the morning with better light I find more spider mites and decide to wash the plant with rainwater. Can‘t find after any more of these little killer dwarfs. I decide to bring more beetles and check the leafs more often. Temperature is felling under 20 degrees, it‘s raining and the humidity is 87%. Day 38 In the early morning I couldn‘t find any mites on Tropicana. Got to continue controlling this in the next weeks regular. I‘m sure they are still there somewhere hidden in a dark spot. 🌦️ 13 - 21 degrees and humidity is around 60-70%. Day 39 🌦️🌧️ Very rainy day. Just let Tropicana enjoy life and tie down the top one more time. 🐞 stay since some days. One on every plant. I think the mites are a result of their start inside and no hygiene at all. Have the same with my peppers some years. 14 - 21 degrees, humidity around 84% Day 40 🌧️☁️🌤️☀️15 degrees, humidity 83% We listen to Roots Reggae, Tropicana is happy and quite busy with producing new roots, I guess. Don‘t understand when to stop low stress training. I think it’s enough now. She needs a rest. Day 41 🌧️⛈️🌧️🌧️ 15 - 19 degrees, humidity up to 89% We had rainfall today around 65 liters of water. I collected enough of it for the next weeks. Day 42 ☀️ 6 - 23 degrees. Humidity is falling. Tropicana enjoys the morning sun while she drinks and drinks and drinks…. Coffee. 😅

🚀 Dutch Passion - Melonads Runtz 🚀 It’s been 80 days since planting, and she’s been flowering for 32 days now! During this time, she’s gained impressive volume, with her buds absolutely covered in trichomes — even the leaves around the buds sparkle like magic. We continue feeding her with Xpert Nutrients fertilizers, and the results are simply outstanding — the proof is in the plant! Every day, she gets more impressive and powerful, showing off the amazing potential of this strain. She looks stunning, and I can’t wait to see the final results! Big thanks to Dutch Passion and Xpert Nutrients for this amazing journey!

This week the photoperiods really settled into their training rhythm. Early in the week I introduced silica into their watering for added stem strength. Midweek (Sept 4) I topped the plants above the 4th/5th node, leaving clean spacing to avoid splitting, and also removed the lower nodes to simplify their structure for the 32×32 tent. By the end of the week, each plant was forming four healthy mains that should train out evenly. Early in the week I also cleaned up the soil surface by pulling out some weeds that had sprouted in the cover crop mix. I originally mistook them for thyme, but once they developed it was clear they weren’t. Removing them freed up space and ensured the true cover crop and main plants had full access to water and nutrients. The plants showed no stress from topping or pruning — leaves stayed a strong, even green, and they were “praying” toward the light after each adjustment. I also uppotted them into their next pots this week. Roots had begun filling their containers, and the timing lined up well with topping. Each transplant went smoothly, and the plants showed no signs of shock afterward. On the feeding side, I watered with silica and began brewing a compost tea (worm castings, kelp, a touch of fish emulsion) for a 18–24 hr cycle to use in the next watering. Watering cadence was every 2–3 days, depending on dryback. Overall, week 5 was about building structure and resilience. The plants bounced back quickly from topping, are holding great color, and are on track to fill out the tent evenly as training continues.

Well fuck me sideways, SBG may have been right. A noticeably large cola exists between these 2 test plants, and it looks to belong to non defo. ... I may have fucked up, but lets wait to find out!!!! Thanks for looking

Hello here we are now in flower! Start of the first week of flower and let me tell you we are ready!!!! I had so much fun training this plant! Ive decided im naming her patience cause shes definitely gave me a lot of patience learning, humbling me helping me thru some hard times I've had to go through. I'm blessed to grow and blessed to have the miss Guava Slushy - Green Bodhi Genetics. As far as the tent goes things have been dialed in! Recently got my humidity down to roughly 45, 50 % humidity. With a roughly temp 70s thru the day and 60s to high 50's in the Am. Im beyond proud of this plant! Lets go guava Slushy welcome to the Bloom! Getting ready to feed her bloom nutrients thru advanced nutrients connoisseur line! Ive been flushing her this last week with irrated water ph 6.30 shes looking well! Much love happy growing
