Added a second scrog net for the taller plants last Friday. Constantly defoliating to increase light penetration but not trying to stress the plants. (Selective leaf picking) Plants loved the tea I have them last week. Visual improvements in every plant 2 days later. Top dressing later this week on 9/29: 5 tablespoons Gaia green 444 5 tablespoons Gaia Green 284 15 tablespoon Wiggle Worm Earth Worm Castings Light increased to 75%

We had a lot of rain last week and unfortunately Do-si-dos wasn't dancing to new heights like her counterparts. This week will be full of sunshine so hopefully she will start her growing dance. I read information on the Royal Queen Seeds website concerning her growth this week and it said that DoSiDos is a plant that reaches heights of 40 inches to 55 inches for an outdoor grow. Royal Queen says it is a very "compact" plant that is easy to grow. The website also says Do-Si-Dos should be ready to harvest 9-10 weeks after sprouting. I think about the end of July or the beginning of August we should be able to harvest. Comments are welcome and dancing is allowed.

Day 22. This girl is a bit sensitive to Nitrogen, but getting better and better as all others too... Great light no doubts! Mars TS1000 and daily rotation around axe, plus changing positions every 2 days - helps a lot with even development. Girls are on pure water, maybe next week ill start some training. Happy Growing !!!

🌸 Week 3 Flower – The Jungle Takes Over The girls are now towering at 1.20 m, turning our tent into a proper green jungle. Both phenotypes are thriving with thick stalks, lush foliage, and a dense network of branches promising a spectacular flower set. This week was all about control and balance. ✂️ Defoliation & Growth Management Although these plants have been allowed to grow naturally so far, their explosive stretch meant I had to step in. I performed a strategic defoliation, not because the plants were weak, but to: • Improve airflow through the canopy. • Ensure light reaches lower bud sites. • Slow vertical growth and help prevent them from outgrowing the tent. Even with a high ceiling, there’s still a risk of running out of headroom during the last stretch. Defoliating at this stage also redirects energy to bud formation instead of excessive leaf production. Note: During this process, a few branches were accidentally broken while moving them out for photos. I left this in the report and photos as a learning moment, large plants can be tricky to handle. This may be the last out-of-tent photoshoot before harvest. 🌱 Structure & Bud Development • Both phenotypes are highly branched, with bud sites forming all the way down the stems. • First signs of proper bud stacking are visible, with white pistils everywhere. • Plants look symmetrical, vibrant, and full of energy — a promising start to mid-flower. 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Base nutrients: • Aptus Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L occasionally (soil already contains slow-release pellets) Bloom boosters (Plagron): • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L (multi-action bloom stimulator, PK booster, and terpene enhancer) • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L (amino acid-rich biostimulant, improves aroma & resilience) • Power Buds – 1 ml/L (early flowering booster to promote faster bud set) This combined recipe ensures the plants receive balanced macro and micronutrients while enhancing flower development, resin production, and terpene expression. pH & EC: • Feed solution pH: ~6.0–6.1 • Feed EC: ~1.04 mS/cm (soil EC still at ~2.96 mS/cm, so feed is moderated) 🌡️ Environment • Soil temperature: 24–24.7°C • Air temperature: 29°C • Humidity: 67% • VPD: 1.37 kPa Conditions are slightly warm, but the plants are coping well. ⸻ 📌 Summary Week 3 of flower has been a turning point, from a lush veg canopy to a budding powerhouse. Strategic defoliation will help manage height and airflow, while the combined Aptus + Plagron feeding strategy aims to maximize flower density, aroma, and overall plant health. The structure is impressive, with a sea of potential bud sites that promise a heavy, aromatic harvest. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

VIDEO ADDED: DEC 29 2020! -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 27 2020! MORE COMING VIDEO?! -- Smell is starting to come down from the fresh cut, definitely has a great look to the bud as the cure goes on, have two 8 gram boveda packs in there after a few days with one that was WAY too big for it 😂 Brought down my Chocolate Mint OG in my other diary right now as well, way more weight to that last plant... probably more than both these Chem Bombs combined, great genetics over @Humboldt_seed_organization 😎 -- PHOTOS ADDED: DEC 23 2020! MORE COMING! -- DEC 19 2020 - Harvest Day Chem-Bomb Auto .. DONE. Step-Brothers ... CHOPPED. Buds.. TRIMMED. Giving them my first bud wash tomorrow! Already juiced the lemon, have the spring water, and off-brand baking soda because COVID has every place sold out of Arm&Hammer 😂 Dale: 50 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 15 Grams Trim/Larf = Total 65 Grams Wet Brennan: 55 Grams Wet Buds/Stem 12 Grams Trim/Larf = 67 Grams Wet Total Wet: 132 Grams (Buds/Stems/Trim) Looks like I'm getting in and around the "1 Ounce per Auto Plant" range with my basic soil/hand feed system. The CMOG from my other diary looks like it will be my first 1OZ plant when it dries. With my past experience of wet buds drying out to about half of bud weight, I'm hoping that they both come in JUST under an Oz a piece. Going to update with more pictures, going to take a couple days to dry and get a good weight and hopefully get somewhere close to the 64 grams of the ONLY sized Boveda packs I have right now 😇 -- UPDATE - Dec 20 2020 - Cure Day 😵😭 i once again got my hopes up by pulling the classic male "over-exaggerating" and all the wet weight came from the main stems. After 3 days or so of drying both plants together came in just under an ounce. The smell is great and I have no doubt it's quality bud but I need to up my density game somehow for sure. New nutrients or better set up, still very low-end with all my equipment as I've just slowly been finding affordable pieces to add as I go. Maybe more light? Feel free to hit me up below with ideas short of switching to a Hydro set up 😹 I can hardly afford my bags of soil so I definitely couldnt keep up with the financial costs of a Hydro set up yet 😓 Have had a few bowls of the dried/uncured bud and it's very nice, clean, and crazy good for being uncured at this point. Just the classic flower taste from the chlorophyll but the pineapple/tropical taste is coming through nice already. Final Stats: 26g Dried Bud 26g Trim -- Thanks for checking in! Will be updating soon and posting more pictures! Throw down a like and/or follow so I can return the favour 🙌 -- IG: @GlazedGrow (DM and let me know you're from Grow Diaries so i can follow back!)

5/18: I did a little LST on her today and ordered another of the 200w lights and some panda film to line the interior of my tarped enclosure. 5/19: WTF?!? I was seeing a few pre-flower pistils here and there, but today it's looking like she's trying to flower along with every other plant in the outdoor garden! All I can figure is that being vegged under 24/0 for a month and then being put outside at just the wrong time under 14/10, they think it's becoming winter. I sure hope she notices the days getting longer and goes back to vegging.🙏 I wanted to beast her all the way out and finish up in late summer, and it's still only fuckin Spring! 5/20 - 5/24: She is really thriving. I did a little more LST on her before the rain started. It rained every day this week for at least a few hours, but I did manage to top-dress her pot with cavern culture and azomite between showers. I also did a foliar application with MicroLife Maximum Blooms that didn't get rainwashed off for about seven hours... That's it for week #7-

Really happy with how these girls are looking, got some amber trichomes on the top of the tallest buds but everything else is either milky or clear. Set the nutrients at the start of the week and then have just been topping up with ro water every day. Everything is leaning over with the extra weight now and turning some beautiful autumn colours. I added a UV light from migro and have been increasing the duration from 30mins each day by an extra 10mins until I reach 2 hours of uv light per day in the middle of the light cycle. I read quite a bit of research about uv light and thc increase so decided to give it a try

Well these beauties are stood at a whopping 42" and are now working on their flowers in full effect! I'm quite sure at this point all these clones are the same strain of sugar bomb punch 😁 so ending up with the favourite in their! She reminds me of runtz muffin because of the orange punch in her genetics!

PT - BR Olá Growers ! Finalmente a flora foi iniciada, Dia 33 de vida das meninas limpei o reservatório DWC e iniciei com os nutrientes de floração. Sensi bloom part A + B, deixei o PPM em 550 para o inicio da semana. Na próxima semana irei adicionar o Bud candy. Não troquei para a lâmpada Narva vapor de sódio ainda mas ao longo desta semana irei trocar. Dia 38 - Fiz uma forte limpeza nas folhas para que os brotos pegar mais luz, ao longo das semanas irei repetir esta pratica. Dia 39 - Encerrando a primeira semana de flora, até então tudo caminhando da melhor forma. Próxima semana irei iniciar o BIG BUD Advanced Nutrients, estou ansioso para ver o desenvolvimento dos brotos. Uma observação como agora estou usando a lâmpada de vapor de sódio as fotos irão ficar meio amareladas. 😝 EN Hello Growers! Finally the flora started, Day 33 of the girls' lives I cleaned the DWC reservoir and started with the flowering nutrients. Sensi bloom part A + B, I left the PPM at 550 for the beginning of the week. Next week I will add Bud candy.I haven't switched to the Narva Sodium Vapor lamp yet but this week I will. Day 38 - I made a strong cleaning on the leaves so that the shoots get more light, over the weeks I will repeat this practice. Day 39 - Ending the first week of flora, until then everything is going well. Next week I will be starting BIG BUD Advanced Nutrients, looking forward to seeing the buds develop. An observation like I am now using the sodium vapor lamp the photos will turn a little yellowish. 😝

Entering the 11th week marks the 5th week of flowering and she is looking great! I decided to make the most of two small side branches and crossbreed her with a Big Bud for an indica hybird and another branch with Durban Poison for a Sativa Hybird. 4 mainlines are looking great.

I just wanted to let the people know about topping and the benefits and when I did my research there was not much for documentary purposes very great results super cropping is a must and topping to create more nodes

So this marks the beginning of week 4! At then end of week 3 I noticed a bit of over watering as well as possible nute burn (early early stages) so this week I'm decreasing the dosages on EVERYTHING and I'm going to let my baby's dry out ! This will be their final week in the 5" square pot as I'm going to move them into their new and final homes. I want to thank everyone who comes and stops by my diaries you guys are wonderful people and I've learned so much already ! So keep on keeping on and remember to check my diaries daily for updates !! Anyone checking out the pictures it isn't mites or any of that I been having a battle to get them to my standard of clean since the transplant. Slow and gentle is the way so no damages are done ! :) -Happy Growing !
