The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of water to be fed. Day 1 we have high temperature of 91°F with mostly sunny skies. I watered 2-3 gallons from the hose. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 90°F with clear, sunny skies. I watered 2-3 gallons from the hose. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 97°F with mostly sunny skies. It was a scorcher. I watered 2-3 gallons twice today from the hose. Day 4 we had high temperature of 95°, but it felt like 102°. Skies were partly cloudy. I watered 2-3 gallons twice today. Day 5 we had rain the previous night and early morning. We had cloudy skies, with high temperature of 81°F. I did not water today. I added 50ml blood meal to each pot spread evenly on top of the soil. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 87°F and mostly sunny skies. I watered 2-3 gallons. Day 7 we had partly cloudy skies and a high temperature of 86°F. I watered 2-3 gallons each pot This week was a success. These girls really began to fill out. We've got another month ish til flower begins so I expect these to be monsters.

Excited to see the pistols keep coming and coming I have such tight spacing that the buds will probably start connecting by the end of the week on the Royal Gorilla Day 19- Tomorrow I will tie some branches down to open up the plants more. The LSD plants needs it the most!

plants were majorly defoliated and are flowering awesomely! just the small one is showing some deficiencies due to unstable pH ---- mid week update: i am becoming kind of concerned about buds themselves – they seem rather small at this stage 😳

Video is just a clip of me explaining how I use instant compost tea in a squirt bottle to saturate the soil slowly, as well as foliar. Photo is day 19. Had the carbon filter hooked up, but wasn't getting enough airflow through this one, so I took it down. Temps were 24-26C@70-75% RH and down to 21C@60-70% RH after removing the filter. Not much to show this early, but they're gorgeous already! Looking forward to this, Nirvana has always been a winner for me. Updates will happen live @ https://twitch.tv/jaindoh and be saved under my vod highlights. Aiming to make super introductory tutorials (as I am no Guru) and get constructive feedback on my techniques. Trying to convert smokers to growers!

Good little week I had, plants have grown a bit since I last updated. #1 - 43cm #2 - 36cm #3 - 37cm #4 - 22cm #5 - 46cm #6 - 49cm The Liverworts have also grown a bit as well, happy with that little update. Some of the plants have been beginning to get fragrant. One of them smells exactly like the seeds branded label "Cake or Pie or Cola" but I won't tell you what one just yet, I was shocked and amazed, another is very gassy/fuley/diesely, no note of fruits whatsoever. The rest are al fruity but nothing screaming strawberry. I'm expecting them to mature much more as time goes on and when they enter the curing stage. Still looking like they want more nutrients, was in the upper limit of what I thought they would tolerate well. 1.4EC maybe I push for 1.6EC - 1.8EC Till next week

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.

Day 50 I did major defoliation on the girls the nutrients have been mixed up for the transition. This week into flower PPM at 1150 par on the girls is 800-900 with my phone app the water temp has been vary good at 65F the girls can drink close to 200 PPM a day and all I really replenish is the Cal mag until the week is finished I also have some overflow of the nutrients inside the system I remove 5 gallons and add back a gallon or so a day along with the fresh water Day 51 well.... The girls used 20L and 200 PPM in 24H! Ppm at 950 now lights at 15in now Day 52 added the leftover water from the fresh nutrient change and a little Cal mag at 1000ppm now Day 53 after looking at many grows I've decided it's a must to defoliate the undergrowth on A or I will regret it managed to get it out of the pot with a little difficulty 20 cuttings from underneath the plant opened it up a bit more hoping this helps when I start flowering in next couple of days Day 54 did a lot more defoliation on A today ppm at 750 now Day 55 not much to note ppm's at 660 Day 56 last day of veg going to 12/12 tomorrow 🙂👍⏳⏳⏳

Removed Universol Yellow from the nutrients. Managed to get a hold on the ph trouble with keeping the nutrient temperature at 20°C and 1ml 11.9% H2O2 for each litre of nutrient solution. Raised the EC to 1.6. Ori is going strong, NL#2 is comming along aswell, NL#1 takes a little longer but is comming aswell. Defoliated a lot again, removed all bigger fan leafes. Did a full reservoir change and barely have to correct PH anymore, most likely it was a bad bacteria problem.

🌱 Week 3 – Permanent Marker Veg Update Strain: Permanent Marker (Zamnesia Seeds) Project: Official Dognabis Cup Grow Diary 🌍 Role: Organizer & Example Grow ⸻ 🌟 Welcome to the Dognabis Cup 🌟 We’re proud to officially introduce the Dognabis Cup to the Grow Diaries community! This is a virtual cannabis cup, focused on creativity, transparency, and community energy, open to all levels of growers. You can follow along or join via our official Instagram page: 👉 @dognabiscup This grow diary will serve as an example and inspiration for participants, showing how I document the process, care for my plants, and work with genetics, soil, light, and love. The Cup had a brief pause due to a lost mail, but now it’s back and fully activated. Let’s grow together! 💚🔥 ⸻ Transplanting Time – Moving Up! The Permanent Marker girls have thrived in their early veg phase, and they’re now ready for a major milestone: transplanting into their final pots. The roots are vigorous, white, and beautifully spread, a sign of healthy development. • New pots: 11L Zamnesia fabric pots – breathable, root-friendly, ideal for organic soil • Transplant timing: Perfect—plants are strong, compact, and ready for more space • Structure: Both selected phenos (PM#1 and PM#2) are extremely similar—vigorous, balanced, and symmetrical. PM#3 will be kept as a backup. From the beginning, this was a “3 to keep 2” plan, and now we follow through. ⸻ About the Genetics Permanent Marker is a strain that needs no introduction in the craft cannabis world. Bred by Doja Pak x Seed Junky x DEO Farms, and now shared through Zamnesia Seeds, this cross of Biscotti x Jealousy x Sherb Bx is known for its deep purple colors, greasy resin, and explosive terpene profiles. In this grow, we are not only testing potential, but celebrating this modern cultivar by giving it a perfect environment to shine. ⸻ 🌱 Super Soil Recipe – Building a Living Medium To support the organic journey, we’ve built a super soil blend based on Aptus Holland’s organic nutrient system. Here’s what went in: • Micromix – Boosts microbial life and supports soil biodiversity • All-in-One Pellets – Slow-release, balanced macro + micro nutrition • Substrate Buffer Powder – Stabilizes pH and improves nutrient availability • Mycorrhizae – Applied directly in contact with the root zone to support colonization and nutrient exchange This mix is pre-mixed thoroughly before transplanting, giving the roots an environment rich in nutrition, oxygen, and microbial harmony. ⸻ 💧 First Watering After Transplant – Intentional Feeding For the initial watering post-transplant, we’re using Aptus Holland’s liquid line to help the roots settle in and activate the soil life: • Start Booster – To stimulate root branching and microbial synergy • All-in-One Liquid – A balanced, fast-absorbing nutrient base • CalMag Boost – To avoid any early deficiencies and strengthen cell walls • Regulator – Enhances nutrient uptake, strengthens tissue, and reduces transplant stress This feeding is low EC, highly bioavailable, and structured to support a soft transition with zero shock. ⸻ 🔍 Pheno Notes – Structure & Selection • PM#1 and PM#2 are being kept based on uniformity, growth speed, and leaf morphology • PM#3 is healthy, but as per the plan, it will remain as a backup • All phenos are compact and symmetrical, which aligns with Permanent Marker’s known characteristics • We’re curious to see how stretch and resin production evolve in coming weeks ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts – On Growth & Community This week marks a turning point, from rooting to expanding. The girls are moving into their adult homes, and with that comes the real shaping of structure, terpene profiles, and eventual flower power. We’re thankful to be walking this journey with support from brands we trust, and from a community that lifts each other up. 🌍 Dognabis Cup is not just a competition, it’s a celebration of craft, learning, and expression. We invite everyone to follow along, ask questions, and maybe even start their own diary in the Cup spirit. ⸻ Thank you all for the love, support, and energy. More updates coming soon on Instagram and YouTube.

Day 83 she’s looking beautiful and bulking so fast. The time is coming soon. I can’t wait. She is looking fabulous. Just keeps chugging along. She will begin the ice flushing process soon and she’s so damn heavy she’s being held up.

A step back recently: Started a final flush (2 days in), and decided to start feeding her again - thanks to some great GD input! 250 ppm at re-start and will work my way to 500ppm? She's still rockin' along - like nothing happened. She topped out at 350 ppm without tanking PH, so she is stable here. PH is now swinging down fairly quickly last 12 hours. Drained off 1/3 of reservoir and get reservoir down to 250PPM. 5 days later, major PH swings down again. Mixed another fresh reservoir. I am using Zero Water 5 gallon system, and just realized the PPM coming out was 100, and PH at 3! If I am at 100 today, that means these filters have been shot for a while, maybe since start of my PH issue. There is also interesting information about when zero water filters reach their expectancy. They put out fishy smell and otherwise. I will be watching my filters more often and taking more notes since this ZeroWater 5 gal system is really the way to go if you are only growing a plant or two. Filters are a bit spendy but when you take time, gas, convenience etc. its a no brainer (if the water coming out is zero:) - I get about 15 gallons per filter (175ppm from tap). Day 70. It’s been about a day since new res change. Steady Eddie at 250 ppm and 6.2. I’ll let her drink the bucket down a good ways if things remain stable with a drift down. I doubt it though, 5 gallon is fine for 12” autos but at 2’ she really needed 8 gal. Time to up the R&D on the cabinet! Also checked Zero Water again and filter is now putting out 200ppm of 3.0 water. New filters installed! Hope she finishes soon, the top of her canopy slowly getting cooked over the last 10 days. 8" of light distance is too little. PPFD 2000+ at the top, but leaf temps are in the upper 70's. Gotta hit a decent DLI on these lower buds - without nuking the top nugs, right?! As the week concludes, she’s in a fresh bath, at 250ppm @ 6.0 and running stable again. New water filters installed so zero water variable removed. Last serving of half+ teaspoon of GH dry KB ripening, and will reduce ppm by 25/day until I reach 10-15%. 1-2 day flush, if at all.

Podriamos haber tenido un punto de corte mas optimo, pero la verdad que un primer cultivo exitoso. Muy rico en aromas y en sabores. El olor a mandarina muy marcado y al final un toque de pimienta que hace que no sea tan impalagoso el citrico tangie. 250 g en seco, nada mal.
