Well, she keeps stretching, but I feel like this may just turn out to be a tall plant 😂 ... normally I'd be saying yay, but with my 4.5 foot tent (not including my light and filter) this is going to be a struggle! Should be fun nonetheless. I'm also interested with how spread out the structure is on this girl compared to every other auto I've grown to date, which have been more bushy and struggling to get any light to the lower bud spots. Get ready for the ride 😎

Cut net down this week and had a reshuffle around, dos si dos was a lot taller so move lights up and put other 3 plants on top on boxes to level top as much as i can Had to do a little late trimming to help airflow down low and just give a little more breathing space as suffered with a little rot on my first grow luckily not too bad though but fingers crossed none at all this time, i managed to avoid it on my secone grow so hopefully will be ok Plant looks strong and healthy, had no issues so far plenty of tops cant wait to see it fatten up

Day 71 – Weathering the Storms, Rooted in Resilience. This past week was a true test of strength. My lady was caught in a full-on storm – strong winds, pouring rain, and yes… she even tipped over. But like a true warrior, she bounced right back once I repositioned her in a more stable spot. Despite the harsh gusts, she remained under open skies, unfazed and proud. Now standing firm at 80cm, she continues to push into flowering with grace. The Plagron Bat Guano applied 10 days ago clearly kicked things into motion, as the buds are swelling up nicely. Seeing that, I didn’t hesitate to apply another round of top-dress today – just enough to maintain steady phosphorus levels and support those forming colas without overfeeding. My approach hasn’t changed: a low-effort, fully organic outdoor grow that relies on nature as the main partner. Pure, pH-balanced tap water (oxygenated, of course) and a living super soil continue to do the heavy lifting. No tents, no fancy equipment, no synthetic nutrients – just soil, sun, and patience. This FastBuds CBD strain continues to impress not just with structure and health, but with its incredible resilience. Even after tipping and being battered by the elements, she’s standing tall and happy. Every day closer to harvest makes this journey more rewarding – and I can’t wait to craft some beautiful CBD oil from this natural survivor 🌿💚

Day 23 - Had some problems with Calcium because I had not buffered the coco... Made a nutrient flush with a solution of 2ml/gal of CalMag Xtra and 1ml/L of Sensi Coco Bloom A/B diluted at 550 PPM. Now the run-off PPM is higher and the ladies seem recovered. Wish I learned from mistakes. Keep running 🙏🏼 Day 25 - Everything ok. The plant's growing strong and healty. The growth in coco is soo faster than soil!

Welcome to Ultimate Auto Grow by PoshGrow! 🍀 Week #10 2020 November 2nd. - 9th. General Info: When planted: 2020 September 1st. Week: 10 Days: 63 - 70 Last Update Day: 2020 November 9th. Plants: 4 x OG Kush Auto 3 x Amnesia Auto 5 xAlaskan Purple Auto 2 x Blueberry Auto 1 x Northern Lights Auto Total: 15 girls. NOTICE: Check week 1 for full equipment list! UPDATE: I got 8 ltr. Or 2 gallon Spear&Jackson Pressure Sprayer to help me with watering. Comment: Hey guys! This whole week I watering with only ph corrected water to flush them and get rid of all deficiency/excess of nuts. And seems its helping. After this flush, Ill continue with nuts for last stage of flowering, I think for a week, then flushing again before harvest. Separate nuts schedule and dosage for NL girl, also wont be using on plants thats close to harvest. OG will be ready to harvest at the end of the week for sure so Ill post harvest week😉 Amnesia and Blueberry strains needs few more days, Ill check trichomes daily with digital microscope. Northern Lights is still in pre flowering stage, so I think Ill finish her with my next grow. Going to be a long run 😆 Alaskan Purple will be ready in week 13 or 14 I guess. Stay tuned and happy growing! ✌️

Alle 5 Samen wurden in ein Glas mit Wasser und 2 Tropfen Seedbooster von Plagron für ca 20 Stunden eingelegt. Nach ca 20h im Wasserglas ging es für die Ladys in kleine Anzuchttöpfe. Nach 3 Tagen in den Anzuchttöpfen haben 4 Ladys und nach 4 Tagen hat dann auch die 5 Lady das Licht der Welt erblickt. Nächste Woche werden die Ladys dann in jeweils 8l Stofftöpfen Platz finden. Durch die kurze Vegetation sollten die 8L Töpfe ausreichen. Die 4 Ladys die den stabilsten Eindruck machen und sich am meisten im Wachstum ähneln werden behalten. Das Substratgemisch besteht aus ca 70% BioBizz Lightmix und ca 30% Cocos mit Perlien. Ich gebe bei dem Run etwas mehr Cocos hinzu damit das Substrat noch etwas luftiger wird und die Ladys es etwas leichter haben ihre Wurzeln zu bilden und damit vielleicht einen kleinen Wachstumsschub zu erhalten. Auf das ganze kommen dann noch ca 10% Megaworm von Plagron und ein wenig BioGrow das es den Ladys anfangs an nichts fehlt. Die Ladys haben leider etwas weniger Zeit für ihr Wachstum, weil der Contest zeitlich begrenzt ist. Der letzte Grow hat leider auch etwas Zeit in Anspruch genommen. Mal gucken, ich hoffe das es reicht. Mit FarRed als Einschlafhilfe in der Blütephase kann man vielleicht ein paar Tage einsparen. Ich hoffe auf das Beste. Am Ende muss man ja auch etwas Glück mit den Phenos haben. Angegossen wurde mit 1g/L BioEnhancer und 1ml/L PowerRoots. Der ph-Wert wurde vor dem gießen auf 6.0 korrigiert. Jede Lady bekam für den Anfang ca 30-40ml in die Anzuchttöpfe. Mit einer kleinen Heizmatte und den Kuppeln auf den Töpfen wird für das warm/feuchte Klima gesorgt, das die Ladys anfangs benötigen um zu keimen. Am Tag an dem die Ladys das Licht der Welt erblickt haben, kamen die Kuppeln ab und die Ladys spüren dann auch ihre ersten Luftzüge.

The three in the foreground are transitioning white widows that are not being tracked. This week the bud sites have been fattening some. I noticed some minor leaf tip burn on these girls and moved the light up a few inches to compensate. 🌿👀

11/10 Week 7 Long week Maggie is responding well to treatment, will continue until I see something that says its gone far enough. I know she needs defoliation but I just hate to take health(ish) leaves when its already stressed. Maybe next week air flow is good. May add some sulfer to the mix but keeping it as is otherwise, 6.8 PH, 1-2% H2O2 and CalMag in a day or two as she drys. Brandy... not sure it did as much for her but see nothing that says stop so will continue as the pot drys. Layla ya got me on my knees... shes my girl. lovely not perfect but has handled things that left other plants stunted and yellowed. Were she a photo I would have cloned her. Continuing feeding as I have, may add Karo may not, defoliation continues as needed. May this continue God willing and the creek dont rise. Last note - Raised the lights up 4 inches to 22" for better dispersal across the canopy now that its getting used. Think this strain likes that. 11/11 Looking better. Did some defoliation on Maggie, nothing stressing and mostly damaged leaves though some were for blocking bud sites Same on Brandy though less so. Picking up some chemical bloom nuets so I can continue lightly feeding them through these treatments, the organics are getting blasted by the h2o2 Layla looking her usual lovely self, buds building, her and Maggie get fed today, Brandy still too wet. 11/12 Brandy still not dry enough, may adopt the feeding I set out for Maggie below when it is time. Changing the treatment on Maggie, for one feed only dropping the calmag and adding two TBS of Epson salts , fish sh!t and recharge to get the bug healthy, and continue the cocotek nuets for the time being, it the only mineral fert I have, to the water at 6.5 PH . Believe the H2O2 has done all its going to do repairing the roots and now I can address the sulfur (i hope) issue. Plant is huge BTW so if I get her producing, yield is going to be huge. IF Layla just continue as before, the Dr Earth is doing a marvelous job of covering all the bases. Will absolutely use this when I go back to organics. Had to reset the lights again... Maggie :) 11/13 New Pics of Maggie as she is the only one causing me concern, no feed today still too wet Defoliated bottom 1/3 of Maggie getting rid of all unwanted under growth. Will continue as it goes. Large leaves looking normal now. 11/14 Feeding time: Maggie and Brandy - 1 gal at 6.5 1.5 TBS Epsom Salt (decided to hit the middle), 5ml cocotek A&B , 6ml Fish Sh!t holding the recharge for next time. Layla - 1 gal at 6.5 5ml Cal Mag , 5ml Bio-Bloom, 5ml Fish Sh!t Getting a bit of height growth on Maggie. Expect more if we are right on this. Decided to hold off a mag/Sulfur foliar until tomorrow if needed. New Vid posted few minutes post feed. Maggie was a bit dry as she is really drinking 11/15 New Vid Foliar feed of 1.5 TBS Epsom Salt / gal unPH water on Maggie primarily though also hit Layla and Brandy. Only the very top of the colas now have the paleness so progress.

🌿 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.
