White Widow – Week 3 Flower | 12-12 From Seed 🌸❄️ Cycle: 12/12 (sometimes 11/13) from seed Stage: Flowering – Week 3 Feeding: Aptus + Plagron + All-in-One Liquid ⸻ Full Flower Mode Our White Widow has fully embraced her flowering stage. This week marks her third week in flower, and she’s already showing beautiful bud formation from top to bottom. Despite her compact size, she’s filling in evenly and with excellent structure. What really stands out is the early frost. Resin glands are already visible, sparkling under the light. For such a modest-sized plant, her energy is clearly going into dense flowers and resin production, not stretch. She’s showing her true White Widow heritage, compact, resin-heavy, and vigorous. ⸻ Nutritional Strategy This week, her feeding remains consistent with the established recipe: • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml/L • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation – 1 ml/L each But we’ve added something new: • All-in-One Liquid 🌱 This addition is meant to give her a balanced nutrient push during this critical phase. By Week 3, plants are transitioning from bud set into flower bulking, and the All-in-One helps provide extra micronutrients and macros that might not be fully covered by the base mix. The goal is to give her everything she needs for flower development, without overloading her. We’ll be watching closely to see how she reacts, but so far, she’s thriving. ⸻ What’s Happening Now At this stage, we see: • Bud stacking beginning across multiple sites. • Resin production kicking in early, with noticeable frost. • Minimal stretch, as she stays compact and focuses on density. • Healthy leaf expression, still a deep, vibrant green. This week is often called the “foundation of flower.” The plant sets the stage now for how heavy, dense, and resinous the later weeks will be. If nutrition and environment stay on track, we can expect these bud sites to start bulking steadily over the next 2–3 weeks. ⸻ What to Expect (and What Not To) ✅ Expect: • Rapid increase in bud density. • More trichome development, the frost we see now is just the beginning. • Aroma starting to intensify as terpenes begin expressing. ❌ Don’t expect: • Major vertical growth, her stretch is over, and she’ll remain compact. • Early harvest, White Widow typically flowers for at least 8–10 weeks. ⸻ Educational Note – Why Early Frost Matters Trichome production this early is a good indicator of plant health and genetic quality. Resin glands serve as protection for the plant against heat, light, and pests, so seeing frost at Week 3 tells us she’s thriving under the current conditions and that her genetics are naturally resin-heavy. For growers, this means a higher chance of strong aroma, flavor, and potency later on. ⸻ A Quick Recap of the Journey • Germination: Not an easy start — mistakes were made, but this White Widow was the survivor. • Veg: Compact growth under 12/12 from seed, slower to show flowers, but structurally beautiful. • Flowering: Took her time to enter full flower mode, but now she’s moving fast and strong. She’s the perfect example of how patience, careful nutrition, and trust in the genetics pays off. ⸻ Shoutouts & Gratitude 🙏 🌱 Zamnesia – for the legendary White Widow genetics 💧 Aptus Holland – for reliable, precision nutrition 🌸 Plagron – for flower enhancers that push her into full bloom 💡 ThinkGrow & Future of Grow – for the light power and spectrum balance 🧠 TrolMaster – for stable and adaptive control of the grow environment And most of all — thank you to everyone following along this diary. Your time, support, and interest in this journey mean everything. This isn’t just a grow log, it’s a story we’re writing together. ⸻ 📸 This week’s gallery includes: • Close-ups of bud development and trichomes ❄️ • Studio shots highlighting her compact beauty • Room updates with environmental stability Next Week Goals & Forecast 🔮 As we move into Week 4 of flower, here’s what we’ll be watching for: • Bud Bulking – Flowers should begin to thicken, with calyxes swelling and pistils multiplying. • Resin Expansion – Expect a noticeable increase in trichome coverage, making her sparkle even more under the lights. • Aroma Kickoff – White Widow is famous for her pungent, earthy-spicy scent. We should start catching stronger whiffs this week. • Nutritional Balance Check – With All-in-One Liquid added, we’ll be observing closely for any signs of overfeeding or lockout, though so far she’s responding beautifully. • Environmental Consistency – The new AC unit is stabilizing temps and humidity — a perfect setup for flower development. Holding VPD steady will be key. ❌ What we don’t expect yet: • No real ripening signs (amber trichomes or fading leaves) — it’s still too early. • No heavy weight yet — the bulking comes between Weeks 4–7. This next stage is often described as the “early swell” phase. It’s where flowers go from just “forming” into recognizable buds with weight, density, and stickiness. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

🌱✨ Super Sativa Seed Club Week 5 (Pre-Flower) Report! ✨🌱 Hey fellow green thumbs! 🌿 We’ve just wrapped up the first week of the flowering phase with our Auto Fast Pete and Auto Northern Dragon Fuel from Super Sativa Seed Club. This week has been all about preparing for an explosive flowering phase and optimizing our grow environment. Let’s dive into the details! 🌟 Week 5 (Pre-Flower) Progress: Day 29-31: Transition to Flowering • Auto Fast Pete: Our fast-growing friend is transitioning beautifully into the flowering phase. Pistils are emerging, marking the beginning of bud development. The plant is showing strong, healthy growth and a robust structure. 🌿🌸 • Auto Northern Dragon Fuel: This resilient plant is also entering the pre-flower stage. The first pistils are visible, and the plant is stretching and preparing for full bloom. The vegetative growth has set a solid foundation for a bountiful flowering period. 🌱✨ Day 32-34: Room Organization & Autopot System • Room Setup: This week, we reorganized the grow room, placing our Auto Fast Pete and Auto Northern Dragon Fuel to the far left of the tent. This strategic placement ensures they receive optimal light and airflow. 🌿💡 • Autopot System: We turned on the Autopots, an innovative system that automates the watering process, ensuring the plants receive consistent hydration. The Autopots use gravity to deliver water from a reservoir to the plants, allowing them to take up water as needed. This method promotes healthy root development and prevents over or under-watering. 🌱💧 Day 35: Nutrient Changes & Environmental Conditions • Nutrient Strategy: We’ve stopped direct feedings and are now testing how the plants do with only the organic nutrition in the soil, supplemented by regulator and CalMag in the reservoir. This approach aims to maximize the benefits of organic soil nutrition while ensuring the plants get essential minerals. 🌿 • Reservoir Details: • TDS: 400 • Temperature: 18°C • pH: 6.2 • Environmental Conditions: • Temperature: 31°C • Humidity: 51% These conditions create an optimal environment for flowering, ensuring healthy development and growth. 🌡️💧 🌟 Care Tips: • Light: Keeping our full-spectrum LED light at an optimal distance (18-24 inches) to ensure even light distribution. The plants are responding well to the consistent light schedule. 💡 • Autopot System: The Autopot system ensures a steady water supply, reducing the need for frequent manual watering. This system is great for maintaining consistent soil moisture, which is crucial during the flowering phase. 🌊 • Nutrient Monitoring: Keeping an eye on the reservoir’s TDS and pH levels to ensure the plants receive the right amount of nutrients and minerals. This week, we’re focusing on organic soil nutrition supplemented with regulator and CalMag. 🌿 • Environment Control: Maintaining a stable temperature of 31°C and humidity around 51% to create the perfect conditions for flowering. Adjusting airflow and positioning to optimize plant health. 🌡️💧 🌟 Genetics Spotlight: Auto Fast Pete: • Characteristics: Rapid transition to flowering, strong structure, early bud development. This strain is a reliable and fast-growing option for any grower. • Future Expectations: Swift bud development and resin production in the coming weeks. Anticipate a dense and flavorful harvest. Auto Northern Dragon Fuel: • Characteristics: Resilient transition to flowering, robust structure, visible pistils. This strain promises high yields and resilient plants. • Future Expectations: Significant bud growth and increased resin production. This plant is gearing up for a heavy yield. 🌍🌿 Fun Fact: Did you know? 🌿✨ Autoflowers begin flowering based on their age, not light cycles. This means they transition to flowering typically around 4-5 weeks after germination, making them a great choice for quick harvests! For all the in-depth action and detailed explanations, head over to my YouTube channel! 🎥✨ I’m sharing all the tips, tricks, and step-by-step guides to help you get the best results from your grow.

Week 10 oh my gosh. Some pistols have became brown. I will wait to 50% of them beign that color in order to wash and then harvest! I hope to Top Max does its job fattening the buds :D

what do they say about different strains on the same RES, in the same pot??? welp, here goes nothing... Last time I saw this waterfarm I was still a teenager. Ran it in a closet with two 4ft flouro shop lights either side going vertically upward like the letter "A". Had two BIG ASS plants roughly 4ft tall in it side by side going STRONG! Healthy asf, huge ass healthy leaves, some 13 fingered. Flipped em and turned out BOTH were male... Been toying with the idea of doing it again... So what the hell... Here goes, 2 Girls 1 Cup or "pot"... One Herbies Godzilla Cookies Auto and one Fastbuds Wedding Glue Auto. Current setup: -36x36x60 tent -"1000w" led light (130w from the wall) -4in extraction fan/scrubber -20+ yr old GHE Waterfarm fitted with ice probe w/ controller and PLENTY of insulation around RES. -Multiple circulation fans -Taotronics humidifier Stay tuned to watch me fuck this up too 🤣 *Sow'd em both in organic peat pellets after a 24hr soak. Getting them acclimated to their new home early. Doing environment tests and dialing it in with the new to me ice probe, and the change to hydro versus soil plants that were in there. Will be more moisture in the air until a canopy covers my balls with the evaporation from the light. **lookey lookey, BOTH have come to life and are making way to the surface. Not long and they'll be in their new "cup". Last update on germination week as once they pop we start counting I suppose.

RadicalJuice – this lady is putting on a real show in the final stretch! Some of the top buds are showing beautiful foxtailing – wild, wavy, and absolutely eye-catching 🌊✨ The colors? A mesmerizing mix of deep red, violet, black, and dark green – like a painting come to life 🎨🌈 And the terpene profile? Wow. Tangie is clearly in the spotlight with that citrusy kick 🍊, but there’s something truly unique and exotic in the background that makes this strain unforgettable 🌬️💫 One tip though: training is key with RadicalJuice! 🧠 The untrained plants are noticeably lacking in yield, while the trained ones are stacking up nicely 🌱 But even the small buds are dripping in trichomes and bursting with aroma 🔥👃 Highly recommended for flavor chasers! --- RadicalJuice – diese Lady dreht jetzt zum Schluss nochmal richtig auf! Einige der Topbuds zeigen wunderschönes Foxtailing – wild, verspielt und einfach hübsch anzusehen 🌊✨ Farblich ein echtes Spektakel: Rot, Violett, Schwarz bis Dunkelgrün – wie gemalt 🎨🌌 Und das Terpenprofil? Einfach nur heftig. Die Tangie-Note sticht mit ihrem fruchtigen Citrus richtig raus 🍊, aber da ist noch was ganz Eigenes drin – exotisch, intensiv und absolut einzigartig 🌺💫 Ein Tipp: Training ist Pflicht bei RadicalJuice! 🛠️ Die untrainierten Pflanzen liefern deutlich weniger Ertrag, aber selbst da sind die Buds voller Harz und duften fantastisch 🔥👃 Klare Empfehlung für alle, die auf Geschmack und Aroma stehen!

Picked up some rhizotonic and had the fan on the past few days and all is looking well! They have been rotated as they started leaning towards the light and bending in one direction..My last veg light was 200/250w blue CFL however didn't notice at the shop I got a 125w I will pick up a bigger veg light for a slightly higher warmth and a bit more light coverage. Using the canna Coco range nothing else.

Im trying to help her recover but im not sure she will, shes on just water now

11/24/2021 First true leaves are showing, transplanted 7 jiffy pellets into their first pots. Should be good for a couple weeks. Interesting to see how all the single finger leaves are developing differently. 11/25/2021 Transplantation complete #8 potted up into a small pot temporarily, Will start feeding next week Mirimichi 901C One ounce (7.8ml) to a gallon. I am guessing (prediction) #2,#6 might be male. (Both are vigorous girls) But time will tell.

:)

Good morning little miss sunshine. Using heatmat at 24°C for the first week. Light Power: 40% Soil in the final pot: I use 80% Dope Soil - florganics & 20 % garden compost. The soil was used by two grow sessions before. In the last one I added the compost. For this grow I added a 1/2 cup Dolomite limestone in the middle layer of the earth. To prevent Ca, Mg deficiency. Covered with 5cm old mulch. Watering with 2,5L tapwater and let it flow DAY 6 Cover open and she can feel the first breeze. DAY 7 Welcome in the final 25L pot .

Planta levou a 1 semana só com rega de agua desmeneralizada com ph 6.0

This week has been important for getting some of the pinning done and setting her up for the stretch,,,being limited for space in the 2x2,,and changing her usual Christmas tree style of growth,,im hoping to create a canopy that flowers evenly,,without one main leader,,but all branches have the chance to be the leader,,and produce flower evenly across the canopy,,!! Once the pinning is done ,,she can go wild,,😁

It's week 14 total and week 7 of flowering (maybe week 5 for WR and Caramel. I thought they were autos and it took me about 2 weeks into the Blueberry beginning to flower to realize they were photos 😂. I sacrificed the 18/6 on my BB auto and flipped them to 12/12) everything is going pretty well considering I know not wtf I'm doing, lol. Tips are all crisp obvious some sort of nutrient burn, but hey it is what it is, they still look pretty decent If I might say so myself for my very first grow of anything ever. I cranked up the nutes to we exactly what the bottle says now.....1 tsp/gal of the green macroflora 2 tsp/gal of the dark red micro stuff, lol and 3 tsp/gal of the Bloom, they fattened up a bit since, I also feed them just plain p.h.'d water. I need to get a lope, I'm pretty sure the BB has got to be reaching its peak. The once all white colored hairs or pistols are now about 30 to 45% amber colored. I'm not sure if you can see them in my pictures but if your reading and care to help out do you think it's ready?

What a great week it’s been!today is day 65 from seed!! One of the Forbiddin Runtz got it’s last feeding on Friday and will get flushed for 2 weeks and will be ready for dry and cure! The rest will still remain getting same dose of nutes the rest of this week and most likely into the next! This batch felt like it went so quick ! Hope you all enjoy an watch out for next week !

Hola hemos tenido problemas con la cámara del celular y no hemos podido tomar muchas fotos por lo mismo . Esta es la Segunda semana de floración de este seguimiento , me parecen bastante rápidas la formación de sus flores y ya se está viendo una formación de resina en las flores. tenemos una SBR que se espigo más que las demás intentaremos ir controlando su crecimiento con algún cropping. Hello, we had problems with the cell phone camera and we could not take many photos for the same. This is the second week of flowering of this follow-up, the formation of its flowers seems quite fast to me and a resin formation is already being seen in the flowers. We have an SBR that spikes more than the others, we will try to control its growth with some cropping.

Pushing the flush, really big flowers and a sweet flavour. The plant did not drink so much in the last days hope that will not affect the flush time in relation to the maturation of the thricomes
