The Runtz auto girls are doing 😊. They have settled in and are fattening and stacking nicely. They are only about 16-18 inches total, but have some nice fat buds, should be some good weight. They are starting to develop some frost, but are very greasy to the touch 🤤 Trying to keep them in a sweet spot so they keep developing. RH around 55-58 % and Temps between 77-80 degrees. They are in week 8 now, and suggested harvest is about 70-75 days… Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️🌱

These ladies were heavy yielding - just wish the PK booster did not stunt them, I feel they could have even been larger, the buds are sweet and sticky, they smell amazing, they are hard and resinous - they have a beautiful mix of dark and light shades of green with bright orange hairs, very pretty, my friends are already in love with this weed, hits you like a Sativa and as the high lingers mellows like an Indica, I can't, wait to grow this again! The is an urban legend that occasionally a purple strain emerges, and when it does the outcome is legendary, just another reason to try this strain!

This week buds are super dense and getting frosty by the day. Starting to wish I made the best use of space as some of the lower canopy not recieving as much light. A little difficult to reach all plants. Arimq is very strong and citusy , pungent & fruity.

Week 8 (20-3 to 26-3) 20-3 Temperature: 28.8 degrees (lights on) 20.9 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 43% (lowest) 21-3 Temperature: 27.6 degrees (lights on) 20.8 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 41% (lowest) Today i installed an humidifier, it will keep the tent at around 65% when it gets below 55% 22-3 Temperature: 28.2 degrees (lights on) 19.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 71% (highest) 45% (lowest) No pictures. 23-3 Temperature: 26.8 degrees (lights on) 19.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 50% (lowest) Today i heavily defoliated the Chemdog #1 and #2 24-3 Temperature: 26.1 degrees (lights on) 18.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 68% (highest) 52% (lowest) Added 15L to the reservoir. 25-3 Temperature: 26.1 degrees (lights on) 19.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 79% (highest) 50% (lowest) No pictures.

so far so good, keeping up with the hydrogen peroxide water, mould on the surface of the soil is non existent now :) Lowered its concentration down a bit, was free eyeing it in the jug before guessing it was about 10ml @3% per Litre, put it down to about 5ml @3% per Litre. Reason was I noticed some unique burning on the leafs of one plant then started to see it on a second, figured it was a direct result of to much peroxide as it only started a few days after its first introduction. The burning seemed to look like what happens when water droplets magnify the suns rays on a leaf during a hot summer day, brown and dry crinkly spots, mainly on the top fan baby leaves. thought it could be the LED's but i have had plants growing 1" away from them and they don't burn like that. Funny thing happened as well where one plant lost some of its purpleness and another plant pick more purpleness up. Two of them are still green from day one, no sign of it turning anytime soon. green ones are in the back of the case, purpler ones in the front. Also decided to give it one more blast of Gaia Power Bloom, made a mistake on the first time I added this one, was only 30ml added per plant not 60ml, will go back and correct that now in the diary, wanted to match the 4-4-4 Gaia All Purpose input to the 2-8-4 Gaia Power Bloom. Had a fan malfunction, it use to keeping the tent as a steady 25c (77f), but when it broke temps went up to 35c (95f). I gave it a good hit and it started back up again. May die again before the grow is finished, not to worried about the increased temps if its only for part of a day. worst thing is it fully breaks and I prop the door open a bit. I feel autos do not like super hot or it can cause them to hermie or just stunt if its longer term. I think they do better in colder summer days in the 23c (73f) - 25c (77f) range, maybe a 28c (82f). but this may be more plant specific and have relation to its genetics. and with its higher temps I had to increase the watering for the day. got 50% more per plant per day. The smell is there but not over powering, I notice it after spending anytime out side of the apartment, but does not leak into the surrounding units or common areas. Had a plant from Royal Queen Seeds before "Fast Eddy" and it made my entire deck reek of skunky weed. It was only one little auto outside, would hate that inside. over all waiting for the buds to come into themselves more and get big, fat and sticky. Hoping this setup allows for that. Only time will tell or someone who really knows what they talking about could probably tell me right now lol :)

She's pretty much on autopilot now. Trichomes clear still.

She is really starting to take shape now growth rate has slowed down but not stopped. Bud sites forming nicely. Having had a problem consistently for the last couple weeks every time I check on her more aphids! Few days ago I noticed a small spider had made home under a fan leave and had 2 aphids trapped and another previous meals shell used as camo I presume to capture another meal. Now with 3 odd weeks left, maybe more as I've read outdoor autos can take up to 2 weeks longer than indoors.(not sure if true yet) I impulsively brought some nutes for the flowering stage. Bio Bizz Bio Bloom 1ml/1l Fed once at lowest feed as don't want to jump the gun and nute burn her. Will feed her next watering in next 2-3 days.

Gorilla Zkittle grow well, everything is good, no have any problem. Gorilla Zkittle amazing beautiful plant, have a very frosty buds. Gorilla Zkittle smell is strong, amazing smell of fruits, strawberries, cherry blossoms and sweet chocolate Thanks to everyone who follows my grow reports, and Barney's Farm for nice genetics.

So this week is week 1 of transition, I have cleared about 40% of the girls fan leaves trying to make sure I get as much light penetration as possible I have about 16 main colas on a couple and between 8-12 on the rest looking for some solid results, going to add all the good stuff next week and lets get ready to watch the magic happen!!!

moved my babies down since icarus and higherus almost touched the bulb :)

No nutrition for this week as i will harvest them at the end of week 8 of flowers as i am seeing 5% ember on Girl Scout Cookies and 30 or 40% on Green Gelato..

Week 10 - Second Week of Flowering 🌸 As week two of flowering begins, the garden’s growth is unstoppable! These ladies are thriving, stretching up while staying beautifully vibrant and green. Every inch of this tent is optimized—each plant is soaking up light, nutrients, and water precisely as they need, filling the room with energy. Room Conditions 🌡️ • Temperature: 27.3°C • Humidity: 62.6% • CO₂ Levels: 800 ppm • VPD: 1.36 kPa (excellent range for robust flowering) • Lighting Intensity: 818 PPFD Solution & Medium 💧 • Solution Temp: 21.5°C | TDS: 470 ppm | pH: 6.02 • Medium: Moisture 100% (recently dried to 67%), TDS 510 ppm, Temp 22.5°C The “dry-out” to 67% was a strategic move, helping boost nutrient uptake and root strength. Meanwhile, our slight increase in reds seems to be having the desired effect, nudging these ladies further along in the flowering process. Eye Safety & LED Lighting 🌞🕶️ With powerful LED systems like the ThinkGrow and ICL-300, eye protection is critical. LED grow lights emit high-intensity light across the full spectrum, including intense UV and infrared components that are not easily detected by the human eye. Long-term exposure without adequate protection can lead to eye strain, and in extreme cases, damage to vision. • Blue Light Hazard: LEDs often have elevated levels of blue light, which can harm the retina over time if proper precautions aren’t taken. • UV Protection: Even low doses of UV can accumulate and harm eyes, so grow glasses with UV protection are essential for any indoor gardener. Investing in quality grow room glasses can help protect from glare, UV, and infrared rays, making plant care safer and more comfortable. Lighting Enhancements: ICL-300 In-Depth 🔆 The ICL-300 is our newest addition, specifically designed for inner canopy illumination. This LED offers a targeted light boost under the canopy, enhancing flower growth in lower and shaded areas—ideal for maximizing yield and light efficiency. • Dual Spectrum Technology: The ICL-300 provides a custom spectrum designed to penetrate deeper into the plant canopy, promoting robust bud formation throughout. • Enhanced Light Distribution: With strategically positioned diodes, the ICL-300 reduces shadowing and balances light distribution to all parts of the plant. • Energy Efficiency & Heat Management: This light is designed to be energy-efficient, running cooler and reducing the risk of heat stress within the grow space. The inner canopy light gives the plants exactly what they need, particularly during the flower stage when bud sites deep in the canopy can benefit from more direct exposure. However, after noticing slight leaf burn on some plants, I’ll hold off a bit longer before fully integrating this light to ensure optimal adjustment. Looking Forward 🌟 As we continue dialing in conditions, it’s all about balance, precision, and taking proactive steps to optimize every aspect of the grow environment. We’ll keep a close watch on the canopy height, and next week, I’ll aim to fine-tune the light integration even further with the ICL-300. P.S. - ICL-300 and CO₂ Sensor 🌱 The TrolMaster CO₂ Sensor (MBS-S8) has been crucial for real-time CO₂ adjustments, ensuring the plants get exactly what they need without constant monitoring. Combined with the ICL-300’s spectrum flexibility, these tools make an unbeatable setup, allowing for nuanced control over plant growth and development. As always, a huge thanks to the Grow Fam for the tips, support, and enthusiasm! I’m excited to see what these next weeks will bring as these plants reach their full flowering potential.

It’s the typical bud structure you would expect from hybrid varieties topped with an explosion of fruity terps that’ll hit you in the face with a blend of creamy, fruity, and sweet aromas as soon as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for terp heads and extractors looking for exaggerated flavors and aromas 🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓 ▶️SOIL MIX 40% ProMix HP 40% Coco Coir 70/30 15% Worm Castings 05% Malibu Compost 🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓╰⊰🍓´🍓⊱╮🍓 Compost Tea 3 Gallons of Dechlorinated H20 3 Cups Malibu Compost 2T Molasses 2 T Alfalfa Meal (DTE) 2 T Kelp Meal (DTE) 1 T Bat Guano (DTE) 1 teaspoon Rootwise Bio Elixir 1)- I used a small paint strainer to hold my composts, placing an air stone right in the bag and zip-tie it nice and tight - this allows air bubbles to really agitate the micro matter off of the compost and into your tea 2)- I like to mix in the molasses (microbe food) and start my main air stone, the dry amendments and Rootwise can be just measured in the bubbles 3) - Keep the temp of the water warm to 75F/85F - too cool and the microbes reproduce too slowly and too hot will kill them. I do not delete my teas and let the plant pots dry out slightly before feeding.

Was a great plant to grow pretty resilient but once I got the hang I kept it going I know this might not be the best but it’s one of my first harvests ( all started around same time just harvested differently )

Blacky reacts quit well on my low stress training. It‘s raining and raining…🤨

Week 4 Veg Report - TrolMaster Chronicles 🌱 What a week it’s been in the garden! We finally transplanted the Papaya Zoap into its final Autopot, and let me tell you, this plant is something special. Though her roots weren’t quite where I wanted them to be yet, the move was needed to help her catch up with the rest of the crew. She’s already looking fantastic in her new home, and I have no doubt she’s about to explode with growth in the coming days. Sometimes, you just have to trust the process, and I’m feeling like this is one of those moments. It’s almost as if the room itself is taking on a life of its own. 🌿 In fact, I’m starting to believe that what we’re building here is something greater than ourselves—there’s this energy in the room, a feeling of everything coming together perfectly. I can’t wait to see how this journey unfolds! Dialing in the VPD with TrolMaster’s Tech Now, let’s talk VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and how I’ve been keeping everything in check with the Tend-X and the incredible (DSH-2U) Humidity Station. VPD is crucial to plant health—it’s all about finding that perfect balance between humidity and temperature to optimize transpiration and nutrient uptake. The (DSH-2U) Humidity Station, connected directly to my humidifier, has been an absolute game-changer in this regard. With its real-time data and automation, it allows me to monitor and adjust the RH with pinpoint accuracy. Simple yet brilliant, the (DSH-2U) Humidity Station is keeping my room at the sweet spot I need. Whether I’m tweaking the settings from my phone while I’m out and about or just fine-tuning things while relaxing at home, this machine does it all. It’s like having an extra pair of hands in the grow room—and when you’re managing something as complex as VPD, that’s invaluable! And yes, the TM+ Pro App—let’s not forget how awesome it is. I’m adjusting my grow room from the couch, the car, or even the bathroom 😜. I’ve said it before, but this app is making growing easier than ever. Feeding the Girls: The Perfect Blend 🌱 We’ve upped the game by adding CaMg-Boost at 0.25 ml/L to the feeding schedule. Along with the 1 ml/L of the all-in-one liquid, this brings the TDS up to 320 ppm, with a pH of 5.99 and solution temperature of 24.8°C. In the soil, readings are around 415 ppm, with temperatures hovering around 25°C The plants are absolutely thriving, and I can already see the difference this new feed is making. I can’t help but have a bit of fun with this process—it feels like I’m spoiling them with the best of the best. And they’re rewarding me with beautiful growth and vibrant green color. You know how it is, with the right care and attention, these plants are truly becoming a masterpiece in the making. 🌱 Shoutouts 💚 Big shoutout to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the phenomenal gear that’s making this grow smoother than ever. Also, massive thanks to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrition, and of course, to the community here on GrowDiaries—you guys keep the energy alive! 🌱 Last but definitely not least, shoutout to all the seed banks supporting this journey. You’ve been a huge part of this process, and I couldn’t do it without you! Remember, for exclusive behind-the-scenes content and updates in real time, head over to my Instagram and YouTube channels @DogDoctorOfficial. We’ve got tons of epic content lined up, and you won’t want to miss it! P.S. Let’s talk about the new Model One LED Bars—these beauties are not only powerful but super efficient. I’ve been able to dim them down, save on electricity costs, and still maintain an incredible PAR and spectrum. It’s all about fine-tuning the balance of power and performance, and these lights make it easy to get the best results while being eco-friendly. Whether you’re running them full throttle or dialing it back, you’re still getting optimal growth conditions for your plants. That’s the kind of innovation that takes your grow to the next level. 💡 Growers Love to all 🌿💚

30.8.24: The plants are still developing very slowly. I may top dress with Ecothrive Life Cycle again, as it's taking longer than expected. So they can probably benefit from that. I overwatered all plants, there was run off. I watered 2 days in a row. There weren't any visual signs that this affected the plants. I'm not going to water, until the soil is dry enough to mix in the ammendments. I'm sill using the Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster, I have noticed that FBP1 and FBP3 have gotten more sizeable since using this product. It's hard to tell on my FBP2 as the buds are already huge. I have continued to defoliate today. I also moved the plants around to maximise light exposure. The branches on FBP3 and FBP1, were looking flimsy. So I tied a few more branches with string, to keep them from breaking and taking up so much room. 1.9.24: So today I added Ecothrive Life Cycle, Diatomaceous earth, also went ahead and added the Bat guano. I watered it in with 2 Tbs of Black strap molasses in 1 ltr of water, to each plant. Each plant also got 1ltr of water with 3ml of Ecothrive Flourish. Additionally I used 2ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster in 1ltr of water. I've noticed that there are new pistils are growing out of the top buds. I think it may be light and or heat stress. It's up to 30°C, at some points. The humidity is pretty stable at 40-50%. I've lowered the light intensity slightly, and am now using 2 fans on low settings. To try to get the heat to lower. 2.9.24: I've decided that stakes are necessary to FBP1 and FBP3. So have made some 70" tall. I also finally got round to cleaning out the bottom of the tent. It was a mess, so I disinfected it with F10. I didn't get any anywhere near the plants. The plants top soil had dried up overnight, I'm assuming the dehumidifier has something to do with it! It is is a great piece of kit. I watered each plant with 1ltr of dechlorinated water, PH'd to 6.0. Each 1ltr had 1 ml of Ecothrive Flourish. I don't want the microbial ammendments, to dry out and ruin it. So I'm thinking about watering just once a day, only 1 ltr per 5 gallon pot. Additionally my companion plant, Rosemary has some either; webbing or Mould on it, so I took it out of the tent, and will treat soil In that pot with a neem oil drench, and see what happens. I need to repot it, my mint plant in the tent also has exploded and needs repotting. 3.9.24: I've watered again, as the water is getting drank by my dehumidifier. Couldn't live without it though! I added 3ltrs of water to each plant included was;- 3ml per litre of Ecothrive Flourish, 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster. Dechlorinated to 6.2. Still haven't managed to add the extra plant stakes yet. 4.9.24 Today all the top soil was dry, and with my dehumidifier so close, I've added another 2ltrs of water each with;- 2ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster 2ml of Ecothrive Flourish 2ml of cal-mag. PH'd to 6.0. Had to add additional stakes in to FBP2 (my best pheno)! As the flowers are soo heavy, it's crazy actually. I've been using 6% silica, since the beginning. I am checking the trichomes daily through the jewellers loupe. They do actually still look clear / glassy. I'm glad I did top dress this week, as it looks like we're going to be going for a long while yet. 2-4 weeks. Ps. If I've made mistakes in this update, I'm 9/10 faded on my Royal Critical. 😅 5.9.24 I watered with 2 ltrs of water per plant PH'd to 6.0. For each litre, I added 1ml of Ecothrive Flourish and 2ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster. I accidentally bent a branch on FBP3. I have taped it together tightly with duct tape. I also added more stakes to FBP2 as the flowers are getting super heavy, which is an awesome thing, as I was prepared for staking, and tying. Can't wait to taste these when they're ready to harvest! 🤤 Ps. I'm thinking of making up a new 5 or 10 gallon pot with a super-soil mix, I did that for this run, but now I know more about ammendments, hopefully it will be better this time. I'm going to leave the soil mix as per the instructions to cook / dry, before planting this time. Will update again 🙂

🌿 Grow 🤝 Freunde 🌱 15. Blütetag | DWC-Grow-Update Hallo Growfreunde, heute gibt's wieder ein Update aus meinem ersten DWC Grow – wir sind jetzt am 15. Tag der Blüte ! Die Pflanzen machen weiterhin einen richtig starken Eindruck: Das Blattwerk ist satt und vital, das Wachstum stabil und die ersten Blütenansätze sind schon zu erkennen. Die Höhe passt, die Verzweigung gefällt mir sehr und der Gesamteindruck ist einfach top – genau so hatte ich es mir vorgestellt! Dank optimalem Klima und der Farmlite-Beleuchtung gibt es keine Ausfälle, alle Lady's entwickeln sich gleichmäßig und zeigen ein schönes, kräftiges Grün. Für meinen ersten DWC-Versuch bin ich wirklich zufrieden – das System läuft wie geplant, Wurzelmasse und Blütendichte weiter zu. Jetzt bin ich gespannt, wie sich das Aroma und die Buds Woche für Woche weiterentwickeln.

It's been a great week for the seedlings! They've really taken off and are looking strong. I'm planning to transplant them into larger pots in the next few days, so next week's photos should show some impressive growth. I'm so excited to see how they thrive in their new homes! I've been giving them distilled water from the start, and I'm still doing that, but I just started adding 10 milliliters of Fox Farm Big Bloom and 1 milliliter of Fox Farm Grow Big. All of the seedlings are doing really well, and there's not really any visible difference between all the ten strains. I started all ten packs of each strain and kept all the best seedlings, so that's why they're all doing so well.
