I put the plants into an NFT system couple weeks ago. I could have waited a bit longer for the plants to develop a stronger root system before placing the rockwool cubes into NFT but I was being impatient because of the slow start and wanted to get the plants under proper light. Now two weeks later they are growing well with good root development. I switched the lights to flowering cycle about a week ago so they should start stretching soon. No preflowers yet.

The plants have limited space and are in 4 litre pots too keep them controlled. This week I defoliated again and started adding sugar royal.

Weeks been chill, plants are not drinking as much as I thought they would be. Still annoying to water them separately with PH'd shit, some days I just give them tap and say fuck it. Can't say they are doing the best they could be doing. Been to busy with other things to give them the full attention they need for a first time liquid feed grow. Really should have done this indoors but I hate running a tent in the summer when the sun and heat are free. Granted the tomatoes are blocking some of their sun, have to move them aorund. been meaning to do that but no where to put them where they won't block out some other plants. Been having some fun making the little videos each week, been using open shot video editor to mash it all together and it works quite nice. Few crashes here and there as this laptop is garbage. It has so many features that I am not fully utilizing like cuts and effects but I've kept it stupid simple. Bugger one of the videos did not upload into the diary. Annoying AF these things take forever to "resize/convert" I like how the dead Blue Cindy plant looks like a biophage, sifi like alien thing.

Strain: Divine Seeds – Auto Candy Grow Type: Indoor Pot Size: 7 Gallon Medium: Peat Moss & Perlite Nutrient Line: Athena (Bloom) Week 5 Update She’s doing really well this week, showing healthy growth and strong flower development. Her buds are looking impressive for week two of flower stacking up nicely already. She’s handling her feedings perfectly with no signs of deficiencies or stress. Everything’s on track, and I’m hoping she continues to bulk up and fill out like this in the coming weeks. Feeding 1.7 L Athena Bloom nutrient mix (will raise gradually if needed). Indoor Climate Conditions Temperature: 18–23°C Humidity: 60–65% VPD: ~0.5–0.8 kPa See y’all next week!

THURSDAY 11/29: I foliar fed a few times and did a photo session. Beatrice has given me no trouble at all. I am now a true believer in silica supplementation. I've never had plants with such excellent stalk turgidity. She is strong enough to support truly massive buds. FRIDAY: Beatrice is gonna be a buxom gal! She's stopped growing and is spending all her energy popping pistils now. Love it. I foliar fed her and rotated her. SATURDAY: FIMing is so unpredictable..but I like surprises.😁 Her third cola isn't catching up with the other two....looks like they will possibly all merge into one massive bud. I'll spray her with ph'd spring water for another day or two to rinse off any residue and discontinue foliar feeding on her now. I watered today with ph'd water, bud candy, terpinator, calimagic, and a little boomerang. She's directly under a 660nm spot and the 3000k quantum board..no sign of light burn, so I'm lowering it another couple inches and monitoring. SUNDAY: She's been very vigorously growing, she was fast to flower, she's got a really nice fragrance, and her structure allows all of her buds to get good light, but I'm a little disappointed that she hasn't shown me any of those special colors I see on other FB Blackberry diaries at week 6...😟 MONDAY: She was still plenty moist so I'll hold off for another day on nutes. I rinsed her with ph'd spring water again today a couple times. No worries...humidity has been below 30% for a couple days now and airflow in the tent is awesome. TUESDAY: I fed her a tiny dose (8oz) of ph'd water with some Fox Farms bat guano, calimagic, and boomerang, and misted her with ph'd spring water.

Third week of flowering - stretch is real. I had to move the light up to escape from the growth. All are doing fine, Strawberry is still meh/weird but 3/5 are fabulous, rest is alive and flowering, tent is full - I'm content. Due to Easter I did not had time for them - I need to catch up with defoliation, lollipopping and ScrOGging them. More on that in the next update, cheers 😎

WEEK 4 (DAY 22-28) The plants are growing good. They are receiving plenty of light as they share a tent with older plants. Therefore, I always try to place them in areas with less light intensity. The mainfolding has been handled quite well, and both plants are now growing two strong and evenly balanced shoots each.

Week 8 Flower — The Frosted Finale Approaches As we enter Week 8 of flower, our Sundae Driver ladies have transformed into something truly spectacular. The tent feels alive with energy, coated in that glistening, diamond-like frost that every grower dreams of. These girls have come a long way—from seed to strength, from gentle sprouts to towering beauties—and this week’s photos capture that evolution in every sparkling detail. A Quick Recap for New Friends For anyone joining us now, welcome to the ride. This grow began with three seeds from Zamnesia Seeds, all of which germinated successfully. We selected two phenos—our Sundae Driver #2 and #3—and nurtured them through an exciting, experimental journey. They were fed a balanced blend of Aptus Holland and Plagron nutrients, grown in a rich super soil mix, and guided by the precise control of TrolMaster systems and the steady illumination of Future of Grow and ThinkGrow LEDs. Along the way, we explored advanced techniques—most notably, the Super Crop, which became a highlight of this grow. The Scene This Week Now in full bloom, both girls are thriving under the lights. Their colas are massive—one could easily compare the main stem to the size of my arm. Dense, weighty, and coated with trichomes from tip to base, they’re the very definition of healthy flower formation. The aromas are complex and sweet, a creamy mix that hints at their Sundae heritage. Even from a distance, the frost catches the light in a way that makes you pause and admire. Environmental conditions are holding steady despite the hot season outside. • Room temperature: around 28°C • Humidity: 62% • VPD: approximately 1.3 kPa With the AC doing its best and airflow dialed in through dual 6” carbon-filtered extractions, the girls are comfortable, breathing easily, and continuing to bulk without stress. Feeding & Formula This week, we continue with our refined nutrient mix: • Aptus Regulator: 0.15 ml/L • CalMag Boost: 0.25 ml/L • Plagron PowerBuds: 1 ml/L • Plagron Green Sensation: 1 ml/L • Plagron Sugar Royal: 1 ml/L EC hovers around 1.7, and pH remains close to 6.1. The soil, enriched and alive, holds an EC near 2.9, providing a self-sustaining foundation for these late-flower demands. Watering now follows the natural rhythm of the soil, ensuring each feed balances moisture and oxygen at the root zone—key for healthy ripening. The Art of Super Cropping Remember that bold super crop on Pheno #2 back in Week 4? She’s the living proof that resilience meets reward. The bend healed perfectly, redirecting energy and light into multiple bud sites. The result? An even canopy, incredible bud density, and a plant that carries herself like a true champion. For those hesitant to try this technique—let this be your sign. Super cropping, when done with care, can unlock your plant’s full potential. It’s a gentle stress that brings powerful returns. Don’t fear it—learn it, trust it, and apply it with love. Looking Ahead Week 9 will mark the start of the ripening stage. Expect pistils to darken, trichomes to shift from clear to milky, and the terpene profile to deepen even further. Patience becomes the grower’s greatest tool here—this is when the real magic happens. We’ll soon be talking about fade, flush, and preparation for harvest. Thank You, Family To everyone following along—thank you from the bottom of my heart. Whether you’ve been here from seed or you’re just joining now, your presence means everything. To the lovers, the haters, the curious, the passionate—thank you. Because together, we grow. And to the partners who make this possible—Zamnesia, Aptus Holland, Plagron, Future of Grow, ThinkGrow, Spider Farmer, and TrolMaster—your innovation fuels these gardens. This project is more than just growing plants; it’s about learning, sharing, and celebrating life itself. Love, patience, and curiosity—these are the lights we all grow under. Let’s keep shining. Dog Doctor Official P.S. For those of you still hesitant to try new techniques like super cropping—this grow stands as living proof that it works. When done gently, with care and understanding, it brings structure, strength, and new potential to your plants. Don’t be afraid to experiment. Each new method is a lesson, and growth—both for you and your plants—comes from curiosity and courage. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! 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.² As these girls start to pack serious weight, make sure every branch has proper support. Heavy buds are a blessing, but they can easily become a heartbreak if left unsupported. A single snap can cost you a beautiful cola. Use plant ties, yo-yos, bamboo stakes—whatever fits your setup—and keep a close eye daily. The last stretch is when your plants give their all, so it’s our job to help them carry that gift safely to harvest.

Monday, 14.03.2022 All plants seem to be almost fully recovered from phytotoxicity a few weeks back. They are stretching nicely and putting out new leaves. Numerous bud sites developing. I would have wanted them to be bulkier but let's see how they do. No significant rain this past week so I was able to feed a couple times. 8~ml per 5 gallon tap water Ph Down got me to around 6 Ph. I thought I would have needed to water on Thursday since two days had passed since I last watered but the plants seemed turgid and OK and Friday night was the same so I didn't water until Saturday. Found a mature stink bug hiding under a leaf on a stem top.

Accidently added week 3 too early. I'll wait a little longer to add the 4th week to even it out. The plants are doing somewhat good but not great. The yellow one is restoring to a fuller green. It seems they all have a little heat stress though and they're not growing as fast as I'd like. If I compare it to my window grow, where my Fast Eddy CBD is just as old as the plants of my outdoor grow. Then Fast Eddy is a lot further. I think they're a bit stunted by the cold in the first week and a half and now it's quite hot for them. Will have to be patient to see how they recover. 8/6 Great growth :D especially on the companion plants. Too bad my plants seem to have some bug problems. I think it's leafhoppers. Especially the 2 x critical CBD are affected, but the sweet CBD that was more lightgreen also seems to be affected.

one of the plants is flowering and the buds on it look nice so far but like said last week, it also has some seeds/pollen sacs, so I'm hoping there'll still be some buds on it by harvest, the other two haven't started flowering much yet, I've only taken videos because I don't have a light and I couldn't see what I was taking a photo of
