This week was the beginning of my L.S.T. and some defoliating in order to open up the canopy and allowing more light to and Air flow. About two more weeks and we will be flipping into flower can't wait.

Flowering day 15 since time change to 12 / 12 h Hey guys :-) This week the ladies developed beautifully 👍. The stretch has started very strongly :-) . Watering was done twice this week with 1.2 l (see table above for nutrients). The heating mat does exactly what it is supposed to do, you can see that the ladies are doing perfectly again 😃. Fresh osmosis water was mixed with tap water in a 100 liter tank so that I would have enough stale water for the coming week 👍. Otherwise everything was cleaned and checked. During the check, I noticed that after spraying neem oil 3 times, there were still a few damn trips to see. I have ordered nematodes for leaf and substrate against tripse. Then they should finally be gone again 🙏🏻 have fun and stay healthy 💚 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.exoticseed.eu/ Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

Got a new light this week, it's basically a HLG 260 R-Spec except locally manufactured using the same Samsung LEDs. Big Mumma got her 60x60cm tent today and will go in there under one Viparspectra 300W blurple (130w from the wall). I trimmed her, super cropped her main stem and added a scrog net in preparation of flowering her in the next couple of days. Because my other plants were getting up past 75cm after 7 days of flower (100cm is my absolute max) , I decided to supercrop the canopy back down to about 60-65cm - it was pretty scary and I definitely broke the outer stem on some of them. Also gave them a good trim. Fortunately most bounced back strong the next day which are the most up-to-date photos you see (17/4/20).

Week 18 Daylight 12h40 - ☀️7h40/20h20🌙 🌈Weather changed a lot during this 2 week, alternating sun and rain with medium temperature: low in the morning 8°C and 22/24°C the afternoon. Cold wind: Autumn is coming soon! 🍃 This is the middle of the flowering cycle for 2 plants and the beginning for the others; and it’s harder than I imagined. Interminable war against pests: caterpillars and leafminer flies (+ guest :aphids). However the environment is clean, there is some sticky traps, ventilation and preventives treatments (Neem Oil, Garlic/Laurel) but infestation are a recurring problem 😩. Majors reasons of the proliferation are the hot temperatures in greenhouse, the quasi inexistants natural predators, humidity, plants proximity. September is the reproduction period of the cabbage looper: a butterfly which lays eggs on plants giving some hungry caterpillars. Some others pests are attracted by the nitrogen added in soil (batguano) I did a serious defoliation, continue to check the plants morning and night to catch intruders, sprayed regularly with Neem oil. For the moment the flowering continues. -Brake Pad Breath: plant has definitely changed of physiognomy, branches are covered by a lots of resinous flowers with a pretty good smell. Indica dominance. Around 3 or 4 weeks till the harvest. It will be long: the plant is a victim of pests and caterpillars and lots of leaves are damaged. -Flash Back#2: elegant plant, pretty good flowering since 3 weeks. Globally healthy despite of the pests aggression. Sativa dominance with long internodes distance and a vigorous stretch. -GMO x Zombie Kush: same difficulties against predators, late flowering, just initiated the flowering process but in a good way. -Royal Moby: the tallest one; around 170cm, not really adapted to dimensions of the growing space and not discrete. Plants was really shocked during the first wave of pests and after the sunburn. Late flowering, Sativa. 💦Watering : 2L/plants/48h -grower Master Floraison + Enyme -grower Master Floraison + pk 13/14 -grower Master Floraison + Cal/Mag

Gran Turismo might be a little on the small side right now, but I have a feeling it's going to be a strong plant. It has this sturdy stem and its leaves are a healthy shade of green. I keep thinking it's going to have a compact, muscular build, like a race car. I'm excited to see how this one fills out. Last week was awesome! I finally got around to giving all my plants a little upgrade – I repotted them into some bigger homes. They're all looking so happy and healthy now, it's crazy. I can't wait to see how much they grow this year!

PH: 5.8 EC: 1.8 As you can see the PH from the feeding water is a bit low, this is because someone suggested that i can try to lower the PH as my PH pen was a bit too high, aswell as my soil PH. Lamp is at 80% and 40 cm distance. Happy new year growmies! 2-1 Temperature: 25.5 degrees (lights on) 18.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 47% (lowest) Watering: None. 3-1 Temperature: 25.2 degrees (lights on) 18.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 56% (highest) 49% (lowest) Watering: None. 4-1 Temperature: 26.4 degrees (lights on) 18.8 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 44% (lowest) Watering: None. I did a soil slurry test to check my soil PH and EC. I dont know how accurate this is, but these are the results: Water used for the test: PH: 6.5/6.6 EC: 0.0 Biscotti #1: PH: 6.7 EC: 0.8 Biscotti #2: PH: 7 EC: 0.6 No pictures of the plants today.

Sick, loosing leaves one by one. I've added a lot of water with citrus : ph 3.5 to 4.3, run-off water is still around 6.3-6.5 I start to understand coco now I think. Coco retain water but not too much like soil. The coco is absolutly not saturated, it looks like wet but not saturated. I have checked quickly the e.c. it drops down to 0.5 I decided to buy biobizz ph down. I am eating to many bio citrus right now for my plants. I need a stable product to reduce this p.h. I've bought Pro-Xl organic PH- I used it in 3 L. cup some mgrammes, seems extreemly efficient. In water : ph. 3.0 ---> I reduced a lot the run-off. Then added 5.6 water : Final run-off : Quickblue : 5.5 QuickPink :5.8 QuickGreen : 6.2/6.3. Sounds good. I will add only water for now.

gulag tercermundista vol. 2 'killer kush fast version de sweet seeds' , esta wea quedo tan flayte que debo mostrarlo en mi lengua madre, como si estuviera hablando alguien que fuera igual de aficionado que yo y tb le de brigido a los bongazos sordidos. weno :) , corregi algunos errores del cultivo anterior,cambiando tambien el sustrato a organic life light mix que fue una experiencia nueva* , que en conjunto a los tiempos que di pensando que seria un repollo indicon, bien confiao le di un mes y una semana de vegeta que pasaron volando se presento tuve un stretch asi de adolescente por lo que la moraleja que puedo dejar como en el contexto de asegurar una buena vegeta, sin saberlo la estaba vendiendo porque no es aprovechar el espacio, es agregar otro nivel de dificultad y riesgo en este caso fue una buena resolucion pero debo advertirlo xq si me hubiera entrao una plaga en flora estaria mas cagao que calsoncillo de milico ctm), fuera de eso tambien sirve no como referencia general de que es algo que te puede pasar con og kush y sus variantes, como esta , y tambien algo que tiene algo de rudelaris para acortar su floracion , al respecto , que 8 de 9 hayan dado diferente tipo de frutas, algunas de hermosa calidad. cultivar ahi es rapido, y se seca muy rapido en verano ctm , pero es un buen sustrato al menos pa germinar y primeras semanas de vegeta rinde, despues muestra carencia muy rapido pero tomenlo como algo bueno, vienen muy acomedidas - imagino que variara levemente lo que sea segun la calidad de agua pero es mejor esperar a que aparezcan sin alimentar o estar dando fertilizantes/estimulantes leves y la carencia tomarle como señal que hay que darle mas comida, especialmente si pueden identificarlas acorde a su propio conocimiento. mi fertilizacion fue top veg, top bloom, top candy, barrier , hesi boost, calmag 2.0 de bac. razon de siempre - no es lo mejor de lo mejor pero es lo mejor que uso relacion precio/calidad porque les doy como chancho. regulo ph con acido citrico , no se mide ec, la temperatura si de hecho al agregar un nuevo termohigrometro descubri que tenia unos puntos ciegos donde no circulaba el calor y quede pal pico mi sistema big dick energy quedo destrosao en eficiencia, pero la tecnica de acumular ventiladores como enfermo, pudo sopesarlo vagamente , mi luxometro es precario pero efectivo , se llama esta wea se vuelve tan instintiva que podria identificar con mis ojos llenos de semen la elongacion causada por carencia de luz y señales de exceso de luz y consiguiente masa calor que genera como cogollos y hojas blanqueadas, resequedad ambiental , y en algunos casos todo esto conlleva a crecimientos deformes dejan de ser tiernos como el fox-tailing. 9x weno, hubo una seleccion media charcha porque puse mas a germinar pensando que no me saldrian tantas pero como de 12, estas fueron como las mejores 9 o una wea asi, criterio de seleccion nivel la lista de schlinder, y weno,las macetas con las que comence fueron pot on pot premeditando su utilidad, luego la generica de 11 lt como tambien asi la luz se incremento y redujo para prevenir momentos que estuvieran a un parametro superior a 28c porque es mas facil reducir el calor que genero que extraerlo en este sistema precario y posiblemente canero, pero que se le puede presentar a mas de una persona , porque el calor ambiental q deben contrarestar puede ser un aliado o enemigo en muchas situaciones de la vida, como este pais presenta un calor extremo en el norte y un frio extremo al sure, imaginense las weas que uno hace por amor a la droga ctm incluyendo lo que los leen desde otros gulags , ser un dimmer humano weon simp por y para de la mota - lo digo por mi y por todos los que sigan leyendo a estas alturas xdddd . intente reusar una malla anterior para tambien prevenir que los cogollos cuando se elongen le peguen al foco y se quemen feo , una de scrog formal puede cumplir el mismo proposito si no tienen intencion de llenarla c:, las plagas son muy poco presente , lo unico que hago ahi es meter barrier debe en cuando en el riego, pero en flora no usaria foliar alguna cosa a menos que fuera una situacion briyida como hongos, que aqui tambien aqui en este espacio reventao, enganchar un hongo o plaga te hace piko altoke. cuidense chamos akakkakakaak meti luces de fiesta porque se ven cool de noche, y algunos pigmentos que genere los rayos uv para protegerse del clima culiao inhospito estilo guerrilla cyberpunk noventero que resulto esta wea fea. big gas leaks energumen@s qlz 😄😄😄

🌱 Cosmic Noodles — Week 2 VEG Two plants, two paths, same environment We’re officially moving into Week 2 of veg, and this is one of those interesting cases where we’re already seeing two very different expressions of the same strain. Both plants share the exact same environment, nutrients, PPFD, and recipe used across all the diaries in this run. The only real difference between them is how they got here. ⸻ 🌱 Plant B — 15 days of veg before 12/12 This one deserves a deeper explanation. Over the last week, Plant B exploded with growth — so much that I decided to start very soft, controlled low-stress training (LST). What I’m doing • Using simple wires • Gently pulling the main stem to the side • Moving leaves, not cutting them • Opening the canopy to expose new growth points No topping. No hard bending. No damage. Just guidance. Why I’m doing this By bending the main stem and repositioning leaves, we: • Reduce apical dominance • Allow light to reach lower nodes • Encourage side branches to activate and stretch • Create a wider, more even structure early Right now, we’re around node 6–8, and the lower branches are already 3–4 cm long — just from leaf positioning and gentle bending alone. That’s a strong response. Important context This is an autoflower, now running 12/12, not a traditional autoflower light schedule. Because of that: • Recovery time is limited • Stress must be minimal • Every action needs to be intentional This is why the training is soft, progressive, and constant, not aggressive. The goal is to bring out her potential, not slow her down. So far, she’s responding beautifully: • Happy leaves • Strong color • No signs of stress • Continuous growth I’m extremely curious to see how this structure develops over the coming weeks. ⸻ 🌱 Plant A — 12/12 from seed The sister tells a completely different story — and exactly the one we expected. Plant A: • Much smaller • On her third pair of true leaves • Tight internodes • Beautiful, healthy color • Growing straight toward the light At this stage, I’m not touching her. No training. No bending. No intervention. For the first weeks, I want her to: • Express her natural structure • Build roots • Show how she handles 12/12 from seed on her own I may train her later — or not at all. For now, observation comes first. ⸻ 🔍 Why they are so different Same genetics. Same feed. Same light. Same environment. The difference is time in veg before flowering pressure. Plant B had time to: • Establish structure • Build momentum • Respond positively to training Plant A is still: • Root-focused • Compact • Prioritizing survival and balance Both paths are valid — and documenting both is exactly why this grow exists. ⸻ 📊 Environment, light & feeding • PPFD, EC/TDS, nutrients: same recipe as all diaries in this run • Consistency is key — changes come from technique, not inputs • Full details remain shared across all reports for transparency Camera note: All photo reports are now done using Sony A6700 with dedicated lenses. More on that later as the series evolves. ⸻ 🔮 What to expect • Plant B: • More side branch development • Wider structure • Earlier canopy formation • Plant A: • Slow, steady vertical growth • Compact form • Natural expression without interference ⸻ 🚫 What NOT to expect • Explosive vertical stretch (yet) • Autoflower “forgiving” recovery from heavy stress • One-size-fits-all results This is an experiment — observed, not forced. ⸻ 🙏 Final thoughts & thanks Huge thank you to: • The community following and sharing knowledge • The breeders for the genetics • Everyone supporting this project quietly or loudly This grow is about process, observation, and repeatability — not chasing results. More soon. Let’s see how these two sisters continue to tell their story 🌱 Growers love, always. 💚 FOR DISCOUNT CODES AND MORE JUST FOLLOW THE LINK https://website.beacons.ai/dogdoctorofficial 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Do you have the Xs Factor? email [email protected] for open apprenticeship spots. Open to Canada and USA (no cost) MARS HYDRO LIGHTS: https://www.mars-hydro.com/mars-tsw-2000-led-full-spectrum-hydroponic-led-grow-light DISCOUNT CODE FOR LIGHT: BudXs CULTIVAR: BudXs2 GROWER: @PsGrowers ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Notes: @PsGrowers - Well, well, well. This tent continues to impress. The XL's are really starting to stand out and take over the tent. This is a good lesson in auto seed buying and planning your grow. A regular auto will tend to stay short and bushy. An XL will grow tall. Which one will yield more???? Thats subjective. Which one will have less issues with humidity and bud rot? Certainly the xl. IT is my preference, hence why the trait is bred into BudXs2. You will get a kick out of how potent this flower is. Lets see some close up crystal shots next week, see if you can get a few natural daytime light photos:)
