DankieDoodle 📅 Vegetative – Week 3, Days 1–7
✂️ Topping & Transition Week
This week marked an important step in shaping the structure all three girls, Pure Runtz (T.H.Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds), and Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds), were topped cleanly above the 4th node to begin forming their SCROG-ready main frame.
All cuts healed fast, and the plants responded perfectly zero stress, vibrant color, and compact, even growth.
💧 Watering & Feeding
Day 1: Each plant received 1 L of water, following the regular schedule.
Absorption was perfect no runoff, great structure, and a healthy, active root zone.
Water Mix:
RootJuice — 1 ml/L
Biobizz Heaven — 2 ml/L
Epsom Salt — 0.15 g/L
pH — natural (7.4 tap water)
💡 Environment:
Temp: 25 °C
RH: 68–70 %
PPFD: ~550 µmol/m²/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 50 %)
Cycle: 18/6
VPD: ~1.0 kPa
🌿 Midweek (Day 4)
All three plants were watered again with 1 L each, using the same nutrient mix.
Substrate dried evenly, roots are expanding rapidly, and all three show symmetrical, low-stress growth.
🌞 End of Week (Day 7)
By Day 7, the pots were drying out completely after only two days a clear sign of a well-developed root system.
The Autopots were activated today to let the plants get used to consistent moisture levels before the next growth stage.
🚀 Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) Note:
Between Day 5 and Day 7, she showed explosive vertical growth, pushing herself right into 650 µmol/m²/s PPFD resulting in slight tip burn on the top leaves.
Nothing serious, just a light stress mark from her incredible vigor.
The light intensity has since been adjusted down to 550 µmol/m²/s for all plants to maintain perfect balance and canopy health.
🌱 Summary:
Structure after topping looks perfect four strong mains on each.
All three cultivars are balanced, compact, and healthy.
Radical Juice shows top-tier growth potential; all plants are ready for the next phase.
A clean and productive week steady growth, solid recovery, and the Autopots now active to keep the rhythm flowing.
Next step: another topping and the first round of gentle LST to open up the canopy evenly 🌿✨
