Pheno 1: strong natural tart cherries with a slight candy Pheno 2: loud cherry candy Pheno 3: cherry fun dip Pheno 4: cherries mashed with earthiness Pheno 5: the strongest cherry pheno I’ve ever smelt. Just loud cherries in your face. I kept pheno 3 and 5. I pressed both into rosin and the terps were insane it smelt like I worked a double at the marischino cherry factory. The terps on 3 were cherries on the inhale with a candy fun dip exhale (absolutely up my alley). Pheno 5 was the most in your face cherry I’ve ever tasted. It was straight cherries throughout the inhale exhale with a slight tart/candy on the back end. I have found my cherry phenos for my future business. Thank you for riding this journey with me. Harvest results on my YouTube channel link in my bio!

Week 5 Day 30 Ladys are happy and beginning to stretch, I think trainwreck gonna be the tallest. Cinderella Jack still vegginng, but I think next week she gonna flower. Blue Dream started to flower too, but the broken mainstem stunted her bad. The mainstem are smaller than the sidebranches. Lemon Zkittlez is the strongest till now, she's growed a perfect symmetry with good sidebranches,but we will see hows they're looking in the end. Updates coming đŸ’ȘđŸŒ Day 32 Man these girls filling out the tent and they don't even stretched. 6 are definitely to much 😅 Day 33 Did a light defolation just some Future popcorn buds. I dont want to stress them so much cause they are in stretching phase. Trainwreck is the biggest and brightess from the 4 mains. The early LST showing right now. Orange Sherbet gonna be the first one to harvest again I think. She's starting to fill up the buds now. All of the lady's showing signs of stress at the tops. I backed up the lamp and dimmed her back to 60 %. This was Lightstress I think, cause the lady's recovered at the next day. Gonna bring the lamp to 100% at week 2-3 of flower. Day 35 Man the plant growed to big. I haven't enough space for them and they don't even finish. The humidity got a bit to high that's why I defolated all lady's. I hope that don't stunt them to much, cause they were to bushy. We will see how they develop at the end. The next run I gonna go for 4 lady's again.

🌾 Sundae Driver — Week 9 Flower / Week 12 From Seed When the plant decides it’s time
 you listen! Another beautiful, crazy, unforgettable week in our Sundae Driver adventure! The tent has been full of aromas, colors, and emotions — and this week brought a little surprise twist. Our Pheno #2, the bold one, the heavy one, decided she couldn’t hold her own weight anymore and literally bowed to gravity. When I arrived, half of her was on the ground, saying: “It’s time, my friend. Harvest me.” And honestly, she was right. Perfect trichomes, perfect colors — it was exactly her moment. So, we harvested her with love, laughter, and respect. Sometimes, nature tells you what to do, and all you can do is listen. We didn’t dry her whole as we usually do — since she broke herself in half, we had to go with a different approach this time. A reminder that every grow has its own personality and surprises. We took it as part of the adventure and had a good laugh about it — because in the end, that’s what growing is: learning, adapting, and enjoying every step. Meanwhile, her sister Pheno #3 is still standing tall and absolutely shining. She’s thriving under the LUMATEK, with her buds swelling beautifully, trichomes sparkling like sugar dust, and her structure holding strong (for now!). đŸŒ± Nutrients & Environment This week we’re keeping the mix balanced — still using the Plagron PowerBuds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation, together with Aptus Regulator and CalMag Boost. Our pH sits nicely around 6.1, EC around 0.7, and the soil is still rich enough to carry the girls through these final stages. Temperatures hover around 28°C, humidity slightly high at 60+, but both phenos have been adapting beautifully. 🌿 About the Harvest For Pheno #2 — the early harvest wasn’t planned, but it turned out perfect. The trichomes were milky with just a few ambers, the aroma intense, and the density incredible. This shows that sometimes the plants truly know best. Her colas were so heavy they couldn’t stand anymore — that’s a good problem to have! đŸ’Ș Super Crop & Structure The earlier super crop training clearly paid off — the buds on the bent tops were some of the thickest and frostiest of all. It’s beautiful to see how resilience leads to strength; those stress points turned into power centers for growth. 🧠 What to Expect & What Not to Expect ‱ Expect Pheno #3 to keep maturing beautifully over the next week or two — trichomes are developing wonderfully, and aromas are getting more complex by the day. ‱ Don’t expect her to rush. She’s taking her sweet time, and that’s perfectly fine — every flower deserves her full moment. ‱ Expect me to keep double-checking the branches — after what happened with #2, I’m making sure no more girls decide to “self-harvest” behind my back. 😂 💬 P.S. — About Holding the Weight For those reading this — always support your branches properly during late flower! When the buds get heavy (and believe me, they will), the stems can only handle so much. It’s always better to tie, stake, or net them before nature makes the decision for you. Trust me, it’s a funny story after the fact
 but quite the shock when you find half your plant bowing to the floor. 💬 P.P.S. — About Super Cropping & Experimentation For anyone afraid to try new techniques — this is living proof that super cropping works beautifully and that plants are incredibly resilient. Don’t be afraid to experiment, to bend, to learn, and to adapt. Each grow is a new journey, and your plants will always reward your courage with lessons and beauty. 💚 Final Words & Gratitude As always, I want to send a massive thank-you to everyone following this journey — the readers, growers, dreamers, learners, and friends who stop by the diary. Your presence, comments, and good vibes make this all worthwhile. A special thanks to Zamnesia for the genetics, LUMATEK LED for the incredible light performance, Plagron and Aptus Holland for the outstanding nutrients and additives, and of course TrollMaster for helping keep everything perfectly dialed in. And to everyone out there — whether you’re just starting or have been growing for years — remember that every plant, every week, every harvest teaches something new. Stay curious, stay passionate, and never stop growing — in the garden and in life. đŸ“Č Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

well, that day dawned :) growing in a suitcase was really difficult, temperature, humidity, plant growth, everything was very difficult to control, but I managed something, it was an extremely interesting experience :) 119 gr wet, I think it will be between 25-30 gr dry , which I think is really good from the suitcase :) it was something different than usual, and now I'm going to grow another begina, which is much bigger than this one :) good luck to everyone, and thank you.:)

Bonjour Ă  tous les padawans et les maĂźtres jedis Pour cette semaine je prĂ©voit de pratiquer comme technique spĂ©ciale le LST et juste un arrosage. Pour cela comme Ă  mon habitude j'attend le cinquiĂšme noeud ou que je juge la plante robuste. Je profite que cette semaine qui va ĂȘtre relativement calme pour faire un LST appliquĂ© et vous faire un rappel de ce qui est pour moi la meilleure technique pour arroser une autofloraison et la façon dont je pratique le LST. En suivant ces quelques simples conseils vous obtiendrez un rĂ©sultat optimal tout au long de votre culture : Le cannabis est une plante qui n’aime pas recevoir un lĂ©ger arrosage en continu. Il est impĂ©ratif de l’arroser en grosse quantitĂ©, puis d’attendre que la terre soit bien sĂšche avant d’arroser Ă  nouveau! Pour calculer la quantitĂ© d’eau nĂ©cessaire Ă  chaque plante, suivez cette rĂšgle : Le volume d’eau Ă  donner lors de chaque arrosage doit reprĂ©senter au moins environ un quart du volume du pot !! Exemples : pour un pot d’1L, donnez 0,25L d’eau Ă  chaque arrosage pour un pot de 4L, donnez 1L d’eau Ă  chaque arrosage pour un pot de 12L, donnez 3L d’eau Ă  chaque arrosage pour un pot de 30L, donnez 7,5L d’eau Ă  chaque arrosage !etc
 Pour donner un tel volume d’eau, il est souvent nĂ©cessaire d’arroser en deux (voir trois) fois, lentement et uniformĂ©ment sur toute la surface. Disposez de bonnes coupelles sous les pots, celles ci se rempliront d’eau qui remontera dans le pot par capillaritĂ© en moins d’une journĂ©e. Il est Ă©galement trĂšs important d’utiliser un bon terreau de qualitĂ©, avec une bonne capacitĂ© de rĂ©tention d’eau mais qui assure Ă©galement un bon drainage (celui ci doit contenir de la perlite, et/ou de la coco, etc..) Il vous faut alors maintenant attendre quelques jours en sous-pesant rĂ©guliĂšrement les pot avec vos bras. Quand ils seront redevenus trĂšs lĂ©gers, vous pourrez arroser Ă  nouveau !! En effet, comme l’eau pĂšse beaucoup plus lourd que la terre, un pot gorgĂ© d’eau pĂšse plusieurs fois le poids d’un pot d’une plante prĂȘte Ă  ĂȘtre arrosĂ©e. Avec un peu d’entraĂźnement, vous apprendrez donc trĂšs rapidement Ă  sous-peser vos pots pour savoir quand une plante a soif. C’est une technique Ă  la fois trĂšs facile et trĂšs efficace, et qui peut ĂȘtre appliquĂ©e Ă  toutes les plantes en pots ! En arrosant de cette façon, en gĂ©nĂ©ral vous devrez arroser vos plantes tous les 3 Ă  6 jours. Pour cette semaine 3 au jour 17 ma plante fais 12 centimĂštres et son cinquiĂšme noeud apparaĂźt je dĂ©cide donc de pratiquer un LST sur ma plante. Pour ce j'utilise du fil de fer galvanisĂ© que je plante directement dans le substrat en faisant attention de ne pas endommagĂ© les racines car n'oublions pas que ce qui pousse dessus pousse aussi dessous. Jour 17 je pulvĂ©rise du une solution composĂ© d'une cuillĂšre Ă  cafĂ© de savon noir mou diluĂ© dans un litre d'eau en prĂ©vention d'Ă©ventuels nuisibles. Je corrige mon LST suivant la pousse de ma plante ... Pour ma par c'est la maniĂšre dont je procĂšde. Comme promis petit rapel de: Quand commencer Ă  appliquer la technique LST De nombreux cultivateurs commencent la manipulation dĂ©s que les plantes possĂšdent entre 3 et 6 nƓuds ou une paire de feuilles. Durant cette premiĂšre Ă©tape de la croissance, le tronc encore flexible est pliable sans risque qu’il ne se casse, mĂȘme si au fur et Ă  mesure du dĂ©veloppement de la plante il sera de plus en plus difficile de le plier. Nous pouvons continuer Ă  guider la croissance des branches durant toute la culture, mĂȘme durant la floraison, ce qui pour cette Ă©tape reprĂ©sente un grand avantage face Ă  la taille, qui n’est pas du tout recommandĂ© une fois que la formation des tĂȘtes commence, cela stressera en effet la plante, ce qui aura pour effet de retarder la rĂ©colte. Comment appliquer la technique de guidage LST Si nous sommes prudents, la flexibilitĂ© naturelle des fibres du cannabis permet de plier leur tronc et branches avec une relative facilitĂ©e, mĂȘme durant la floraison des plantes. En utilisant une corde fine, nous pouvons accrocher la pointe de la plante Ă  la base du pot par exemple ou Ă  un tuteur que nous aurons plantĂ© dans le substrat. Nous plierons le tronc avec prĂ©caution et nous le fixerons avec la corde, Ă  partir de lĂ , nous pouvons augmenter progressivement la tension de la corde, chaque jour un peu plus, jusqu’à obtenir la position souhaitĂ©e. Soyez attentif Ă  la rĂ©action de la plante, essayez de ne pas appliquer trop de pression sur la corde et rappelez-vous que la flexibilitĂ© des branches peut varier d’une plante Ă  l’autre. Pour obtenir de meilleurs rĂ©sultats, il suffit de suivre quelques rĂšgles simples. Pour commencer, nous devons choisir une corde fine mais pas trop pour ne pas blesser les troncs au fur et Ă  mesure qu’ils grandissent et qu’ils deviennent plus gros. Nous pouvons utiliser des crochets en plastique souple ou de n’importe quelle autre matiĂšre flexible pour Ă©viter d’endommager les plantes. SpĂ©cialement en intĂ©rieur, utiliser des cordons en plastique de couleur (voir les diaries de @Silky) est trĂšs pratique pour voir facilement les accroches et faciliter le travail au milieu du rĂ©seau formĂ©s par les cordes, les tuteurs, les mailles ou les supports que nous aurons dans la culture. Bien entendu, en culture extĂ©rieure et surtout en guerilla nous ferons juste le contraire et nous utiliserons des matĂ©riaux de couleur qui n’attirent pas l’attention pour que notre jardin reste discret. Pour stresser les plantes au minimum, la mieux est de rĂ©aliser ces manipulations le soir ou juste aprĂšs que les lampes en intĂ©rieur s’éteignent, ce qui leur permettra de se remettre durant la nuit. Normalement, le jour suivant nous pourrons observer comme les pointes des branches que nous avons pliĂ©es se dressent de nouveau vers le haut Ă  la recherche d’une source de lumiĂšre. Que la force soit avec vous

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 60 days and flowering stage was 70 days total (harvested tops at day 63th) the total weight of dry buds was : top buds 174 G + lower buds 55 G = 229 G my overview of strain with details: the seeds: unfortunately i only got 1 seed cracked out of 5 so i will not know how much this genetic can get different but at least i got the chance to grow once of this wonderful strain the plant : in every stage you can ensure that you are dealing with a high level plant , she will get big so you have to control her height LST and SCROG highly recommended , will grow very well with tick stalks and big fan leaves , has good resistance for stress and will respond very well to stress trainings , she really has gorilla power in herself , fresh buds on plant : buds are very compact and dense even from start , fresh blossoms smells like pineapple and mango , 2 different shades of sweet smells like you hold 2 junks of pineapple and mango in your hand and you smell them together, she is a trichome and resin factory , very very sticky , very oily , strong smell dried buds: very compact and dense , hard as rocks , has dark colors with purple hues inside it , it smells sweet smoke : very smooth and sweet like lollipop , pineapple , mango like , after 2 minutes it'll kick in and you'll get higher and higher with every breath , has a strange and especial high mind high mostly

Wow wow wow !!! Insane aromas from both. Huge buds are stacking up nicely- a real pleasure to watch them both grow. The Cali is a lot taller than the grapefruit but for what the grapefruit lacks in size she makes up for in buds. It means I have to elevate her up to the same level or there abouts.

Hi nice people! I decided to keep the lower tiny branches and this week I defoliate her quite a bit, as lots of bud sites were covered. Overall a great week, buds are developing very well as shown in the pics. As always, stay safe, stay high!

Well it finally happened, the girls have outgrown the 4x4! Was mid week and was having a hard time keeping humidity below 65%. Thought of defoliating, but can't keep doing that weekly or it will shock them sooner than later. So I decided to move the front left plant to the 3x3 under the Photontek SQ300W, giving the girls in the 4x4 some much needed breathing room. Set about retraining the plants to maximise space in the big tent, and then flattened out the lonely girl in the 3x3. Crazy enough the 4x4 still looks full by end of week, and the one by itself is getting close to filling the 3x3! This could be a pretty big grow by the time we finish đŸ€ž. Have the solo plant running on the older Autopot valves with 6mm hose, and already had one clogging issue. Seems really early on, in past would take 2-3 weeks so thinking maybe I didn't have the lines 100% clean to start. Either way easy fix just blow out the clog and flush the lines with a liter or so and back in business. Always remember to flush the on/off valve as well as the main valve in the tray. Otherwise raised the lights in 4x4 to their max height (5" from roof) and took all the slack out of the cables to keep them off the lights. Adjusted the ties on last day of the week, but things seem pretty set now in the big tent so will just be widening out the lone girl once she grows a bit more. I'm sure by end of week that tent will be packed as well!
