The Canna Crumbly cocoa biscuits are always a delicious opportunity to fill up on energy. They are easy to prepare!   Ingredients: 30g Bitter Cocoa 300g flour 200g butter 100g sugar 5 eggs 1 bar of milk chocolate with whole hazelnuts HOW TO PREPARE THE CHOCOLATE BISCUITS 1. Boil the eggs for 8 minutes, cool them and shell them.  2. Blend the egg yolks and set aside.  3. Mix the butter in a bowl with the sugar, add the flour and egg yolks, mix, then add to the mixture a bar of milk chocolate with whole hazelnuts previously blended into small pieces (I used the knife for a coarse mince) 4. Add the cocoa to half of the mixture and let them rest in the refrigerator for about half an hour.  5. At this point, roll out the pastry to about half a centimetre, then create the variegation between the two doughs (here you can have fun), once the biscuits have been formed, arrange them on a baking tray with baking paper and bake everything for 12-15 minutes at 170 degrees. IMPORTANT: I put double the recommended dosage for the butter, thinking I was an expert smoker, but, next time I will follow the doses because I slept 12 hours, the edibles have a prodigious effect but you need to calibrate well otherwise you risk going to sleep at 8 pm!😇💤

7/19 Rained all last night. Weather report says it will be rainy for several days. I "suited up" did some slight defoliation and fed two gallons to the garden. Still need to apply BT and get inside and prune with clippers. I'm hesitant due to this huge rash but I need to find a way to do this. Plants look good just need to be cleaned up. 7/20 No water as it's been pretty rainy. Thunderstorms tonight and rain tomorrow. I'll have to wait to apply either Spinosid or BT (as a preventative). I took down the tarps on the back. The wind isn't bad. Usually it's like a wind tunnel but I think this was the right decision. They are still attached at the bottom so the cam go back up quick if high winds come. Considering top dressing with cow manure. It's what I have on hand. I also need to find time to defoliate inside the plants. I'll have to do it when it's wet I guess to avoid the moths. I saw nests at my girlfriend's house on a bunch of apple trees so maybe I got this rash there. I hope so. 7/21 I watered despite some of the soil being damp. It MIGHT rain today but even if it does it wouldn't REALLY give my plants the water they are used to. I also cut some branches inside the plants. I have a lot more to do though. I found a brown-tail moth caterpillar crawling on the soil of one of those buckets outside my cage. Leaving his little poisonous hairs behind. I killed it with fire. I'll update after I spray and/or prune. Humidity is 98% today 70 degrees at 9am. "I'm going to need a bigger boat." 7/22 I put the tarps back up after finding the tall unsupported plant looked all blown over. I removed it from the cage. It's a 30 gallon tote so it opened up my area a little more. I watered this morning as it's supposed to be a nice sunny hot day. Later I plan to LST that seedling that I just left in the 30 gallon tote and kinda neglected. At least I didn't show it the love I had the clones. It's in reveg as well (the only one) and I'm questioning whether it might have a better home elsewhere. I'll check it out when I go for my evening inspection. Looks like possible thunderstorms tonight so I don't know if spraying is feasible. Thank you to all who have been following and helping me on this journey. Much cooler than it has been 65 degrees at 10:30am. 7/23 Watered this morning. I also did some defoliation and pruned lower limbs. I need a night without rain so I can continue with my IPM. I see pillar damage so it will probably be BT that I use. I weed Wacked around the cage this morning and was planning to feed but I ran out of time. The girls will have to wait until tomorrow to eat. The garden looks very healthy as a whole. Slight issues here and there but nothing an outdoor grower wouldn't expect. It's been a great year for growing cannabis thus far! I'll do another video once I get the cage weed Wacked. 7/24 Watered slightly before I Fed two gallons to the garden. Still have leaves turning yellow and falling off but I think its normal. At least the same thing happened the last two years right around this time. Plants have EXPLODED in growth and look great. The stretch is real. I took a minute video that might or might not upload. Took a few pictures too. Internet is pretty slow so I'll probably have to upload pics tomm. Reached the 80s today. Nice and sunny. Oh and walking down to the garden is like getting punched in the face by a skunk lol. The smell is incredible. 7/25 No water as it is supposed to rain today and they drank pretty good yesterday. Still need to defoliate a bit. A few of the seedlings are reveging. That's ok though. I hate seeing leaves die but looking at my previous diary (and the paper one before that) it seems to happen the same time of year right when the stretch starts. For the most part the garden is in preflower so I may start the next week as flower. I also STILL need to spray preventative. I don't really have a problem (besides slight pm and a few random critters but hey it's outdoors) but I need to keep up with the IPM. Im super happy with progress this far.

As of day 14, I am happy (although a little worried) about how the grow is going. Growth continues to be somewhat strong and new growth seems to be healthy, but the issue that affected the lower leaves has left me a little spooked. It has continued to the second set of leaves to a limited degree. I have mostly eradicated the fungus gnats who moved in from some houseplants so that is a plus. Poor transplanting technique could have also damaged the roots, as the issues became most apparent after potting up to 1 gallon containers. Although I have been very careful to PH my nutrients after mixing, I realize I was not PHing at every fertigation and may have missed some early swings upwards in my watering reservoir so I am now being more diligent making sure the PH is consistently under 6.2. I am hoping that these actions will have fixed whatever issue was occurring, but if there is anything I may have missed please let me know! I have a expanded the timelapse to contain all the growth up to day 14, and will continue to re-edit it for every week. Thanks for reading, and happy growing! Day 16: began LST to expose/encourage the new branches. There has been plenty of healthy new growth, so I suspect that the leaf issues were due to temporary PH fluctuations in my watering reservoir that went undetected. Thank you to those who answered my grow question! 👍 Day 17: FIMed the Blue Dream'matic, which has been growing strongly. I went a little more aggressive because in the past I have messed the technique up by getting mostly leaf instead of the new node of growth. Hopefully it goes well this time! Day 18: more LST will wait as my smaller plant Staples do not have enough hold, when I transplant to 5g pots I will continue. Day 20: a few lower leaves continue to show the browning. I will transplant at day 21 which will give me a chance to check the roots, and I will be adding h202 to my watering bucket to prevent pH swings due to bacteria (which I believe has caused the issue). The plant is still growing vigorously and is branching well post FIM.

Past 2 weeks shes developed dense boulder shaped nugs that run all through out the plant. Today was first day of flush so 5 days ish I'll be harvesting this beauty. Perfect timing for the greenhouse seed company competition that I've surprisingly been giving the opportunity. Happy growing.

20.01.21. 45 дней Халкберри. Халкберри действительноно побил мой рекорд по скорости зацветание. Переход длился всего одну неделю. Видимо я рано сделал 12/12 не дав ей восстановиться после стрессовых тренировок.пришлось подставить 10 см платформу под горшок, чтобы не опускать сетку. Но, тем не менее она очень толстая и пышная дама. Кушает отлично, толстеет, лбрастая стимами, а они у неё очень крупные. Породистость чувствуется. Следим дальше. Всем спасибо за ваше внимания, друзья)) .

🌿 Week 3 – Transplant Week – Super Silver Haze (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Super Silver Haze Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Stage: Vegetative Light: F.O.G. – Black Series 600W Pots: 11L Zamnesia Fabric Pots Environment: 8x8 Shared Tent Watering: Hand Watering CO₂: 632 ppm Room Temp: 27°C Humidity: 57.4% Water Mix pH: 5.83 EC: 1.01 Water Temp: 18.5°C ⸻ 🌱 The Transplant Ritual – Rooted in Respect This week marked a milestone for our girls, the only transplant they’ll experience. From germination pods to their final homes: 11L fabric pots filled with a handcrafted super soil mix built to support them through the entire grow cycle. And what a moment it was, roots white, strong, healthy, bursting with promise. We took our time, handling each one with care, giving them the space to breathe, stretch, and claim their territory. ⸻ 🌾 Why Fabric Pots? Fabric pots offer an environment where roots can breathe, not spiral. This air-pruning effect encourages a denser, more efficient root system, ideal for healthy nutrient uptake, pest resistance, and overall vigor. The 11L size gives them just enough space to thrive, while staying agile in the shared tent setup. They also promote better drainage, stronger oxygenation, and more controlled wet/dry cycles, a perfect match for our hand-watering style and the super soil underneath. ⸻ 💧 Soil Mix & Nutrient Support Each pot was filled with a living substrate layered with Aptus Holland amendment, a clean, focused recipe: 🌱 Transplant Mix: • Super Soil Base (custom blend) • Aptus Mycor-Mix – inoculates roots with mycorrhizae • Aptus Micro-Mix – provides beneficial bacteria and biological balance • Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – regulates pH and nutrient interactions Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus All-In-One Liquid – 1 ml • Aptus Start Booster – 2 ml A delicate, supportive formula designed for root establishment and pre-veg stability. ⸻ 🌞 Light, Air, & Structure – The Gear in Action The girls are basking under the F.O.G. Black Series 600W, delivering clean, full-spectrum power. The result? Compact internodal growth, vibrant greens, and a glow that’s impossible to ignore. Airflow is key, and our current setup includes: • 2x 6-inch Carbon-Filtered Exhausts: • TrolMaster Aerofan 6”, controlled via the TrolMaster Hydro-X • Spider Farmer 6”, managed by the GGS Controller • 1x 6-inch Fresh Air Intake, carbon-filtered Yes, it’s early for scent, but carbon filters also trap airborne contaminants, pollen, and dust. It’s about creating a pure, controlled biosphere where only what’s meant to be there… stays. ⸻ 🔧 Ecosystem Evolution – TrolMaster Integration The TrolMaster ecosystem is slowly syncing into place: Lights, sensors, fans, cameras — all coordinated from the palm of our hand. Some plants will shift into automated watering systems, while others, including the SSH for now, are still getting the hand treatment. There’s magic in these moments. Feeling the medium. Listening to the plants. Touch matters. 🌿 ⸻ ✨ SSH #1 & #2 – The Chosen Phenotypes All three Super Silver Haze phenotypes have been stunning, but SSH #1 and #2 are standing out in structure, health, and spirit. These two are officially selected for the flowering stage. We’re documenting their every move, even took them to the studio for portraits. Yes, they deserved it. And yes… they’ll probably be back under the lens next week before they get too big to leave the tent. ⸻ What to Expect Post-Transplant Transplants can shock some plants, but not these ladies. Their roots were well-developed, and their new soil is welcoming. What to expect: • A short pause in above-ground growth as they settle in • Explosive root expansion in the new soil • Visible shoot growth by end of week • No training just yet — we’ll let them tell us when they’re ready We’re not rushing anything. This is about timing, rhythm, and letting nature sync with intention. ⸻ 🎥 What’s Next? Next week will reveal how well they’ve taken to their new homes. We’ll start gentle training. Possibly first topping. Definitely more photos. Stay tuned for: • Full transplant video on YouTube • Root shots, soil breakdown, and time-lapse updates • Training techniques & early-stage shaping ⸻ 📲 Join the Journey You know where to find us — and if you don’t: • GrowDiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/dogdoctorofficial • Instagram: @DogDoctorOfficial • YouTube: Dog Doctor ⸻ Tools of the Craft Explore the gear powering this grow: • Genetics: Zamnesia • Nutrients: Aptus Holland • Automation & Sensing: TrolMaster • Lighting: Future of Grow • Pots, soil & tech: Spider Farmer • Storage/Curing: Grove Bags ⸻ With each week, we deepen the relationship between history and future, roots and reach, technology and touch.

J’ai du sortir les deux pots potager en avant pour pouvoir étaler les plantes à l’horizontal et les éloigner de la lumière :( à défaut d’avoir une belle diversité dans la tente on aura une 4x4 couverte de têtes. Petit top dressing de Bio Bloom en complément, on centre les pots et on travaille le scrog. Encore une bonne semaine de stretch et on devrait avoir notre format final. I had to get the two veggies pots out of the room so I could spread the plants horizontally and get them to a good distance from the lights. :( We won’t have a broad diversity inside the tent but at least we will get a sea of green 4x4 feet big. Little top dressing of BioBloom, we get the pot centered and we work the scrog. A good week of stretch left and we should have our final format ready.
