welcome to 📅 Day 29 of the grow Day 1 of flower 7/5/2021 sorry for the late update I just found out my wife is pregnant with our first 👶. the girls are doing great under the new grow feeding and coming along great. see you all on Thursday for my next update. Happy growing and keep your stick on the ice 🏒 Update: 📅 Day 4 of flower 7/9/2021 the girls are coming along very good and I have done the last of the pruning from here on out its just feeding I would like to say a few words about Mars Hydro. the TS 1000 is a great light and I love the fact that the power supply is capable of being separated from the light and located outside of the tent to keep the heat down. I also like the fact that you can control the light intensity and daisy chain with another light witch is what I plan on doing.

Hey everyone An average week. Jack 2 still doing her best and she is whitout a doubt the best girl of this round. All buds are swelling up and are looking very frosty. she is in her final period now. Gave one last feeding with nutrients and from now on its flushing time. By the end of the week (maybe 10 days) I will chop and harvest her. The night/early morning humidity is pretty high too. Around 90%... Wich brings me too NL 1 😪 NL 1 is another story Remember I said last week I found some budrot... Well it has spread to some lower buds too so I decided to end this grow. There will be something left to save but not much. It's not for me anymore too. Gonna give her away. I'm not a fan of plants that have rot in anyway haha. I still can't blame the plant herself. She had rough conditions and a stupid accident caused by me. Still a bit sad because she looked fantastic in the beginning. Oh well Will still do the harvest report next week but not sure if she will be still here then. All focus on Jack 2 now 🙂 Another grow to learn from Happy growing friends, see u next week 😉🙏

🌱 Amnesia Skunk — Week 5 (12/12 from seed) First real signs of flower & structural development Welcome to everyone joining the diary at this stage 👋 Here’s a quick recap, followed by a detailed Week 5 update. ⸻ 🔁 Quick recap — how we got here • 12/12 from seed from day one • Winter run, cold & humid external conditions • Focus on plant-led growth, minimal stress • No topping, no aggressive defoliation • Structure built through leaf tucking, gentle bending, and light LST Both plants have developed very similarly, with compact structure and strong lateral branching. No major phenotypic differences so far — which makes this run especially interesting to follow. ⸻ 🌸 Week 5 overview — transition into flower This week marks what feels like the first “real” flower week: • Clear bud sites forming • Vertical growth slowing slightly • Side branches pushing up evenly • Plants staying compact and well-balanced They’re stacking nicely and responding very well to the gentle training approach. ⸻ 🌿 Training & canopy management No heavy interventions here: • Continuous leaf tucking • Gentle branch bending • Very light LST, only where needed to open the canopy No defoliation beyond what’s absolutely necessary. The goal remains: let the plant decide, we just guide So far, this approach is paying off. ⸻ 🍽️ Nutrition & irrigation strategy (important update) ➕ CalMag introduced this week Not because the plants are deficient — but because: • We’re using rainwater + dehumidifier water • These sources are very low in minerals • Calcium & Magnesium need to be present before demand spikes This also explains the EC adjustments this week. ⸻ 🚿 Hand-watered plants • EC: 1.43 • pH: 5.9–6.0 • Water temp: 22.8°C Carefully adjusted to support flower transition without pushing too hard. ⸻ 💧 AutoPot-fed plants (6 plants) • EC: 2.29 • pH: 6.01 • Water temp: 22.8°C AutoPots are running mineral-only inputs, as organic inputs don’t perform well in this system. Higher EC here is intentional and controlled. ⸻ 🔍 Plant handling All plants are regularly: • Taken out of the tent • Checked for weight, water demand, and overall condition • Then returned to their position This helps ensure each plant gets exactly what it needs. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment (winter realities) • Outside: ~5°C, RH 92–96% • Grow room: • Temp: ~21.8°C • RH: ~58% Not ideal on paper — but the plants are not complaining, so we adapt and keep observing. ⸻ 💡 Lighting • PPFD: ~700–850 (depending on plant size and position) • Plants are praying consistently, showing good light response We let the plants “decide” how much they want to push. No forcing — just monitoring. 🔦 Under-canopy lighting — phased introduction By the end of this week, we’ll be plugging in the under-canopy lights. The canopy has already grown past the main light plane, and the goal here is not to blast the lowers — but to signal the plant that light is present from all directions. Why we’re doing this: • Encourage lower and inner bud sites to stay active • Reduce the “shade shutdown” response • Support more uniform flower development • Improve airflow and plant posture as branches respond to multidirectional light Important note: This will start very gently — low intensity, just enough to be perceived. PPFD and intensity under the canopy will be increased gradually, only if the plants respond positively. The idea isn’t forcing production — it’s communication. We let the plant decide how much it wants to use. ⸻ Fungus gnats — honesty section Yes, we’re seeing a small fungus gnat presence: • Yellow sticky traps installed • More intentional dry-downs • Actively monitoring, not panicking Personal thought (not science, just observation): A mild, controlled pressure may trigger subtle defense responses. Whether that translates into anything meaningful later… we’ll see. Either way, it’s under control. ⸻ 👽 New team member Meet Mr. Baggy Our new fluffy alien/beaver/whatever-he-is friend, won through a Grow Diaries contest. Expect to see him around — he’s officially part of the grow now. ⸻ What to expect next • Continued flower site development • Possible stretch differences emerging • Increased nutrient demand soon • Close monitoring of environment as winter progresses No big changes planned unless the plants ask for it. ⸻ 🤝 Final thoughts Same genetics don’t mean same results. Different environments, water, climate, and handling all shape how plants express themselves. I encourage everyone to: • Test • Make mistakes • Observe • Learn • Build your own understanding That’s how real cultivation knowledge is formed. Thanks to everyone following along — this journey is just getting interesting 🌱 Week 5 Veg/pre-flower | 8×8 Tent | Master Conditions 🌍 External Environment (Context) • Outside temperature: ~5 °C • Outside RH: 92–96% (very high humidity) • Strong seasonal pressure influencing internal stability ⸻ 🌡️ Internal Tent Conditions • Tent temperature: ~21.8 °C (noted drop due to cold external temps) • Tent RH: ~58% → Very good considering outside conditions ⸻ 💨 Airflow & Circulation • Primary airflow: Bottom → top → wall return • Pattern: Full-room vortex circulation • Additional fans: Central airflow to break blind spots and mix layers • Goal: No stagnant pockets, uniform VPD across canopy ⸻ 💧 Water Source & Rationale • Water: Dehumidifier water + rainwater • Base EC: force • Systems designed to support plant intelligence, not override it 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.

🚨 Durbin Thai/Cinderella 99 week 6 update 🚨 🚨 week 7 of veg!! 55 days old!! 🚨 So this is a clone I received on Jan 31st. She has been transplanted from a solo cup 2 a 5 gal pot. She had 2 be topped in her second week of rooting do 2 the top frying from to much light in young clone stage. Since the topping this lady has come 2 life!! She has been defoliated 4 times! Most recent defoliation 3/27! She spent her first month feeding just off nutrients in fox farm soil. On 3/2/22 I gave her her first Gaia Green trio feeding!! She has exploded with growth since!! This Saturday coming up she will get her 2nd Gaia Green feeding. 💡 Grow Sponsor💡 @marshydro_amazonled @marsnier #marshydro #TSW2000 Marshydro equipment-- Marshydro- 4x4 grow tent Marshydro- Tsw2000 Marshydro- 6" inline exhaust fan with digital temp and humidity sensor Marshydro- 6" carbon filter Marshydro- 6" Black duct line Other companies in this grow- @foxfarmsoilandfertilizer - 100% ffof @gaiagreenorganics - Organic fertilizer @inkbirdofficial - WiFi temp control @madmanplant- 6" Tent shelves @levoit.id - WiFi humidifier Thanks for checking out my grow!!

"What you get for a bag seed" week - I've stopped using the Nitrogen reach nutrient. Bloomax is 1.7:14:14.5 NPK, by the leaves it seems like they have a slight nutrient burn, so it feels right to reduce nutrients. - I've done some really low stress training on PE, just opened a light space for lower buds And............... - 'I think I saw a pollen sac', indeed suddenly something green appeared on the top part one of BD's biggest colas.... I've decided to use tweezers and get it out - Now I imagine hermis everywhere, I've read about them a bit, mainly looking for images.... Something about PE doesn't feel right. Just spoke to friend and he also thinks PE has many pollen sacs. I'm going to try to save it - problem is I can only see the bastards when I take a picture with extra zoom... at least she's not huge. I guess BD is pollenated by now.... will update..... EDIT: I've transferred PE outside, week 6 of flowering starts today, so I think I'll harvest her in 10 days. She originated in a bag seed, so I'm taking it easy, learning a lot!!!! My first grow is kind of a rehearsal - the feminized seeds arrived couple of weeks ago and I hope to start a new diary soon :)

Almost ready to harvest, i think i make now 48h of darkness and then harvest. Not so big buds but hope smell and taste is nice 🌺🍆🌲🌞 what do you think?

very soon i will switch 12-12🤪

Started flowering on Day 55

Una cepa muy fácil de cultivar, y muy agradecida de los cuidados y alimentos dados... En sus últimas 3 semanas engordaron muy bien llegando a formar muy lindos apicales centrales.

Вначале недели пришлось 8 основных колл согнуть вбок, чтобы они не убежали сильно вверх. Это привело к тому, что этажи ниже вырвались вперед и теперь у меня получился какой-то огромный забор из колл. По сути у меня получился SoG без использования сетки, а только лишь с помощью подвязок. Мало того, растишка стала наращивать зеленую массу и заняла все свободное пространство бокса. Если честно, я сам в небольшом ахуе. Я знал что у меня будет супер-скоростной гров, но чтобы еще и такой массивный - даже не представлял. Мало того, шишки начали расти прямо из листьев. 😂 Мы абсолютно здоровы. Специально сфотографировал кончик старого листика. Ни единого намека на дефицит или профицит веществ. Увеличил дозу до 850 PPM, в дренаже такой же. Перешел на чистое Bloom питание с добавкой Bud Ignitor. Вообще я прям очень рад этим удобрениями. Растет на нах прям отлично, за PH не смотрю. Одни из причин - лень пойти купить батарейки. С другой стороны TDS показывает постоянный PPM, поэтому уверен, что PH нормальный. Ну и сами листья об этом говорят. Как станет теплее на улице, вытащю бокс на балкон, потому что чувствую, что с таким большим урожаем не справится ни один фильтр, хотя у меня их два. Недавно отключился свет и буквально за пару часов вся квартира наполнилась ароматом. Вот такие вот дела... Спасибо что заглянули!

Great strain!! Amazing smell and superb flavor and great Stoney buzz!!!

Yellowsticky traps capture hundreds of thrips. She is just beginning to become a girrrrl.

Hey everyone 😃. We arrived last week and everything is going according to plan 👍. It has now had enough time to use up its nutrients and will be in the darkroom for the next 2-3 days before it is harvested 👌. The trichomes are 70% milky and 30% amber 👍. As always, a detailed harvest update will follow before the last update 👍. Until then, I wish you all the best, stay healthy and let it grow 🍀 You can buy this Strain at https://thecaliconnection.com/seeds/girls-scout-cookies-34.html You can buy the fertilizer at https://www.greenbuzzliquids.com/ Type: Girls Scout Cookies ☝️🏼 Genetics: GSC Tint Mint 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green Buzz Liquids : Organic Grow Liquid Organic Bloom Liquid Organic more PK More Roots Fast Buds Humic Acid Plus Growzyme Big Fruits Clean Fruits Cal / Mag Organic Ph - Pulver ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 - 0.4 EC.

I think the final part start but I wish to push a little more! So I keep the juice whiteout adding nutrient and will start the flush next week!

6ta semana comenzó el 22/07/2019 esta vez hicimos poda de bajos por la humedad de la ciudad así puede circular mejor el aire y controlamos la presciencia de hongos, no lo queríamos hacer por miedo a la producción final pero las nenas reaccionaron muy bien y se noto en como comenzaron a engordar y a crecer sus flores, en realidad como que lo agradecieron, también esto ayudo a que le llegara mejor la luz a las ramas mas bajas. Esta vez sumamos al riego los productos de floración de Top Crop en sus dosis bajas (Top Bloom, Top Candy) ya que algunas estaban presentando carencias de Fósforo y Potasio.

420FASTBUDS ORT2109 WEEK 7 The pair of these beautiful girls continue to surprise me every week. I give them a once over and look and the leafs for a weekly inspection to make sure all's well. The both have many flower sites showing up and I decided to do a mild defoliation to allow the plants energy to be focused on the upper sites. Over all I'll continue feeding them they way I have been with 2liters of water/nutes every 2-3days. Happy Growing
