Week 3: TrolMaster Chronicles – Transplanting, Growing Strong, and Thriving in PRO-MIX HP 🌱✨ Hey Grow Fam! Another exciting week has flown by in the grow room, and I’m thrilled with the progress! We kicked off Week 3 with our first set of transplants. The Gorilla Melon was transplanted at the end of the week, while the Papaya Zoap is still patiently waiting for its turn to shine. Each plant that’s been transplanted is now comfortably settled in 15-liter Autopots, filled with PRO-MIX HP BIOFUNGICIDE + MYCORRHIZAE, and wow, I’m loving this mix! 🌱 Why PRO-MIX HP is a Game-Changer For those of you unfamiliar with PRO-MIX HP, let’s take a closer look. This soil provides superior drainage and aeration, thanks to its high porosity. The addition of fibrous peat moss and coarse perlite creates an ideal environment for water flexibility. It’s been perfect for the girls as they transition into their final homes. Plus, the biofungicide and mycorrhizae are doing wonders for root development, giving them all the support they need for vigorous growth. The plants are showing off a beautiful, vibrant green, each with its own unique characteristics—no two plants are the same, and I love that! 🌡️ Environment Update: Temps, RH, and More Let’s talk about the conditions the girls are thriving in! We’re sitting at: • Temperature: 26.7°C • Relative Humidity: 62.9% • VPD: 1.30 (I know it’s a bit high, but they’re handling it like champs) • CO2: 800 ppm • pH: 6.18 • TDS: 215 ppm • Solution Temperature: 23.2°C To make things even more efficient, I’ve adjusted the light height, keeping the PPFD around 360 to 400 to save on energy. These beauties are still soaking in the light perfectly, and I couldn’t be happier with how they’re responding. 💧 Watering and Feeding At this stage, the plants are thriving with just enough nutrients to keep them happy. I’ve kept things simple with a balanced solution, ensuring everything stays within the perfect range. The PRO-MIX HP, with its mycorrhizal fungi, is really helping with nutrient uptake and boosting overall health. It’s amazing to see how quickly they’ve adapted! 🌟 Transplants Complete – Progress Feels Incredible! I’m super excited with how everything is shaping up! Most of the transplants went smoothly, and the growth we’re seeing is just amazing. The Papaya Zoap is still waiting for its final move, but it’s growing strong, getting ready for the next step. It’s an honor to work with these genetics—they’re each unique, yet all thriving in their own way. 🌱💚 🌍 Shoutouts and What’s Coming Next I couldn’t do this without the support of my amazing sponsors and all of you, Grow Fam! A huge shoutout to TrolMaster and Aptus Holland for their top-notch gear and nutrients, and of course, to all my followers—whether you’ve been here from the start or are new to the journey, thank you for the love and support! 💚🙏 Don’t forget to check out my Instagram and YouTube, where the Seed to Harvest Series just kicked off! I’m going deep into all the gear, techniques, and day-to-day grow updates you see here. Exclusive content and more are waiting for you on those platforms, so come by and join the fun! Growers Love to everyone, and here’s to another epic week of growth! 💚🌱 Let’s keep pushing the limits and making magic happen. • Nutrition: @aptusholland @aptus_world @aptus_es @aptusbrasil @aptus_thailand @aptus_portugal @aptususa_official @aptusplanttechnz @aptusplanttechaus • Controls: @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.eu.support @trolmaster.support @trolmaster.agro • Soil: @promix_growers_eur @promix_cannabis @promixmitch P.S. Let’s talk about these new Model One LED bars I’m running. 🌿💡 They’re not just any lights—these are full-spectrum beasts designed to give my plants exactly what they need at every stage of growth. The real magic, though? The dimming feature. With just a quick adjustment, I can dial down the intensity without sacrificing the quality of the light. This means I’m saving on energy costs while still delivering top-tier PAR and maintaining a balanced spectrum. It’s not just about blasting plants with light; it’s about giving them the right light at the right time. By fine-tuning the PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density), I’m hitting that sweet spot where the plants thrive, and I don’t have to run the LEDs at full power. So, while I save a bit on electricity, my plants still get the perfect environment to reach their full potential. 🌱✨ This level of control lets me optimize the growth, and trust me, my plants are loving it—just another reason I’m thrilled with the Model One setup. 💚💚💚 Growers Love everyone 💚💚💚

Week 9 started so far they are looking great to me. 1 plant started almost exactly 1 week ahead of the other 2 (the plant with yellow pipe cleaner on some branches is the 1 plant that started to preflower ahead of the other 2 plants. ) it's really smelling great aswell. Pretty exciting to watch these autoflowers. Over night u get to see some crazy growth .. Been learning alot with this first attempt with autoflowers.. we're going to be starting up some more hopefully . But will update more photos during the week as they fill out . Getting closer , but no rush on these girls , their looking and smelling AMAZING .

Beer almost ruined half a year of work. Long story short, a space heater got the room wayyy too hot during their off cycle...and I run it on the colder side when the lights off. Dealing with some powdery mildew but containing it with a foliar spray mix of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) a “splash” of h202 and a tiny drip of soap and applying with the lights off. Throughout the grow I am consistently using 3/4th the recommended doses each week for their hydro line. I fill 4 gallons but dose as if there’s only 3 gal. Near the end of the grow I am filling 4 gallons, still dosing as if 3 gallons, however the root ball would cause the bucket to overflow so I have to dump about 30% away to other plants so my water level is where it should be. A little more than halfway full seems to work, and if it is slightly too high, the plant will drink it down where it is fine by tomorrow

70 days from seed!!! wow I just confirmed once again that Zamnesia seeds are not bad :) the girl is growing really well despite the lack of space, high humidity, the girl just ignores all this and does not pay much attention to it and focuses all her energy on the maturation of the flowers, which are really very stiff ;) Plagron nutrients also worked flawlessly throughout her growth, this is my first growth with these nutrients :) I am happy that they are there, I will definitely use them in the future :) well, there is not much left until the harvest, Good luck to everyone in the competition and in your cultivation :).

🌿 Lava Cake – Week 6 (2nd Week Flower) | Morphing Into Bloom 🌿 The Lava Cakes are officially stepping deeper into flower mode. Stretch is slowing down, morphology is shifting, the leaves, the stance, the energy of the plants are clearly moving toward bloom. Even without a huge photo set this week, the video walkthrough tells the full story: happy, thriving plants under carefully tuned conditions. ⸻ 📖 A Quick Recap – From Seed to Here • Seedling Stage: Strong germination, started in solo cups with Aptus support, rooting fast. • Veg Growth: Transplanted into fabric pots, lush branching, topped and trained with ease. • Environment Setup: TrolMaster ecosystem dialed in step by step — exhausts, intakes, carbon filters, sensors. • Lighting Evolution: Black Series 600 → Future of Grow LEDs → ThinkGrow Model 1 → now with a Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W and the ThinkGrow ICL-300 added to the lineup. The room is a galaxy of light. • Nutrition Journey: From Aptus start boosters to super soil base, steadily adapted feeding. Now, the recipe grows richer for flowering. Each step has built the foundation for what’s happening now, the Lava Cakes standing strong in early flower. ⸻ 🍽️ This Week’s Feeding Recipe We swapped Start Booster for Top Booster and layered in a new experiment: Plagron trio support. Current Mix (per L water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml The Aptus All-in-One Liquid is on pause for now, pellets in the soil still provide baseline nutrition. This new combo is about flower initiation + terpene support + bio-stimulants. It’s partly science, partly intuition — but that’s how discoveries are made. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment This Week • Room Temp: Up to 34°C (AC unit coming soon to stabilize) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watered when dry-down hits 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → reading EC, moisture %, and soil temp straight to Tent-X brain Conditions aren’t perfect, but the girls are handling it gracefully. Warmth makes them thirsty, and with careful irrigation + sensor data, they’re drinking daily and staying strong. ⸻ 💡 Lights of the Garden • Future of Grow LED • ThinkGrow Model 1 and ICL-300 • Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W All tied into the TrolMaster network. The room is now a layered ecosystem of precision — light spread, airflow, and CO₂ distribution tuned for a canopy that can handle big flower production ahead. ⸻ 🐝 A Note for Nature – The Bees Alongside all this controlled technology, we can’t forget the real farmers of the world: bees. A photo this week shows a bee at work, pollinating. Without bees, there would be no flowers, not in the garden, not in the fields, not in the orchards. They are nature’s TrolMaster, carrying genetics forward, balancing ecosystems, ensuring that plants fulfill their destiny. In our indoor rooms, we simulate everything: light, water, air, food. But bees remind us of the real story outside, a world built on quiet pollination, day by day. A fairytale where the smallest wings sustain the biggest cycles of life. So this week, the Lava Cakes bloom under LEDs, and the bees bloom under the sun. 🌞🐝 ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC will stabilize the room climate and drop stress levels. • Flowers will set fully, with pistils stacking over the next 7–10 days. • Plagron trio will show its effects, watching closely for flavor, resin, and density changes. • More light power may be added as the canopy demands. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thought: Even on a busy week, even with just a video instead of many photos, the story of these Lava Cakes is alive. They’re moving into flower with strength, under lights, with data guiding them — but always with love as the main ingredient. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

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 💚

Grüßt euch Freunde! 2 Tage vor dem Ende der 7. Woche sieht es doch schon sehr nach Herbst aus. 👌 Habe die ganze Woche keinen Dünger zugeführt und jeden zweiten Tag 6 Liter Wasser auf 6,5 ph‘ed gegeben. Die Farben die sich hier entwickelt haben flashen mich immernoch jedes mal wenn ich das Zelt aufmache. Der Geruch ist wirklich intensiv und hat was fruchtig erdiges mit leichter Gas Note. Mehr dazu natürlich erst nach dem trocknen und cure. Schätze mal das wir so in 14 Tagen am Ziel sind, bleibt also spannend was da noch passiert. Bis dahin euch allen eine gute Woche!💚

270gs of bud .. 30gs going into making bubble hash along with the trimmings so will update again next week. Not bad for just 1 plant which was running alongside the peyote wifi. Smells like fruit loops and is super frosty ❄️ temps weren't ideal for hanging but after 12days she's ready to jar and start smoking. Tastes like it smells and it stinks. What a strain %100 recommend. Massive shout to PharmaZ for sorting me out on my next runs. Go follow 👍🏻 Mars Hydro Fc4800 is up next 💡 the stats if correct should out do the sf4000 by a gram/watt. Should be interesting. Total new nutrient line aswell so can't wait for my delivery tomorrow 👍🏻 cheers dude ❤️🍁 Thanks for joining, liking and loving my grow ❤️ happy growing fam 🌱 and see you for the next run, next week

Altough the "anonymous" seedling was still a bit behind, I decided to move the plants into the AutoPots. The pots were still disconnected from the tank and the plants were handwatered for the time being. 3 days later it was clear that "anonymous" had died. I was getting a bit frustrated since the fourth pot was now empty and the other 3 plants were growing happily. I started another germination attempt.

Needed to defoliate to create airflow and start shaping the ladies. Stretching out the lower colas across the base. Fimmed the ends of the longer stems to get a split going for more colas. Recharge added to feed after stripping 30%+ of the lower canopy. Will turn to flower in a week or too. Notes: slow growth due to the lower heat in the tent. Okay with that because the Lecky bills have been huge with all the price gouging going on.
