Week 6 Report: White OG – Shaping Her Future 🌟
We’re at Week 6 of veg, and the White OG is thriving like a superstar! This week, I decided to take her structure to the next level by topping a few branches, and let me tell you—she’s loving it. 🌿 The growth is vigorous, and she’s shaping up beautifully to maximize her potential for flowering.
Let’s dive into what went down this week and why it’s all so important for her journey.
Branch Topping: Building a Strong Framework
After recovering beautifully from her initial topping at node 7, it was time to refine her structure further by topping a few branches. For each branch, I left two nodes to ensure strong, healthy growth while encouraging a bushier canopy.
Why Top Branches?
Topping isn’t just for the main stem—it’s an essential technique for creating an even canopy and increasing yield potential:
1. Encourages Lateral Growth: By removing the top of a branch, the plant redirects its energy into the remaining nodes, encouraging side shoots to grow and fill out.
2. Maximizes Light Penetration: A bushier plant with more branches ensures that all parts of the plant get access to light, reducing shading and improving photosynthesis.
3. Improves Structure: A strong, evenly distributed framework sets the stage for a healthier plant that can support larger buds during flowering.
The decision to leave two nodes per topped branch ensures a balance between promoting growth and avoiding unnecessary stress.
Tent Conditions: Consistency is Key
The room conditions this week have remained steady and perfect for her vegetative stage:
• Temperature: Around 18°C—cool but manageable, keeping her growth steady.
• Humidity: At 60%, maintaining just the right level to support her root zone and foliage.
• Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD continues to provide optimal light for compact, strong growth. i will dim it up soon!
These consistent conditions give her the environment she needs to recover quickly from topping and focus on building her structure.
Nutrient Routine: Trusting the Pellets
This week, I’ve continued with the Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets as the primary nutrient source. They’re working their magic, providing a steady release of nutrients to support her vigorous growth.
As a backup plan, I’m always ready to reintroduce All-in-One Liquid if she starts showing signs of needing more immediate nutrition. For now, she’s thriving, and the pellets are doing an excellent job of meeting her needs.
Training and Future Plans
Topping a few branches this week was just the beginning. I’m planning to continue topping over the next few weeks to shape her into a bushy, evenly distributed plant. By focusing on creating a strong structure now, she’ll be perfectly prepared for explosive growth when we flip her into flowering.
Looking Ahead: Growth on Overdrive 🚀
As Week 7 approaches, I’ll be monitoring how she responds to the additional topping and ensuring her environment stays consistent. The goal is to encourage her lateral growth while keeping her stress levels low and her energy focused.

Hello everyone,
here is an extra week of flowering, the plants are doing well, it starts to bloom, unfortunately an accident occurred: my fan fell into the canopy which caused me some damage, I tried to recover as I could. ..I just hope it will not have repercussions on the future but the plants seem to manage that ... to follow ... for watering from next week I will start to reduce fertilizer ... now place to photos

Erntetag für meine Lemon Orange an BT60. Mega frosty Blüten. Mehr nach dem Ernten.
Update:
Die Ernte ging sehr schnell, da sie nicht viele Verzweigungen gebildet hat. Erntemenge ist jetzt nicht im XXL Bereich, aber immer noch XL.

On Tuesday last week I burned my plants, particularly #1. Everything was going very well so I thought I'd add a little more nutrients to get some bigger blooms. That was a mistake! I flushed them with just tap water and trimmed off the leaves that were badly burned. Yesterday the plants were looking much better and I introduced a fraction of the nutrients that I was feeding them before.
Plant #2 is starting to get covered in trichomes though there aren't any on #1. With a jeweler's magnifying glass and my phone I did my best to take pics of #2's trichomes. It's not so easy to see in the pictures but in person they all look clear. I'll wait until they're all cloudy and some are amber to chop it down.

Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower)
Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to.
6/14/2023
Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall)
Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics.
6/15/2023
Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall)
Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday.
6/16/2023
Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower)
Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours.
Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water.
Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light.
6/17/2023
Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower)
I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track.
I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow
T-24 Hours until Chop
6/18/2023
Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day)
What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

The plant is a beast. Having a lot of light burn issues and I dimmed the LED but it still continued. I’m out of vertical space in the tent. Trying to keep her happy until harvest.

Sehen einfach wunderschön aus, habe die für die letzten paar Tage rein geholt da es sonst zu Kalt draußen war
Heute wird der Rest im Zelt geerntet und dann bekommen die ein neues warmes, sonniges Plätzchen im Zelt um nochmal ordentlich Blüten auszubilden…
Von der Optik absoluter Stunner, Purple in Kontrast zum knall Grün der Blüten, welche später noch Purpeln werden 😍😍

Well it seems to be slowing down in length over the past few days, just hit 21". Hoping it doesn't get any taller as I've had to keep adding spacers to my spacebucket.
I've still got some spots which I'm thinking could be light/heat stress. I'm adding cal-mag with my nutes at ph 6.3, flush a couple weeks back showed ph 6.3 runoff too so I believe it's not a lockout issue, hoping the community can chime in.
Hoping to see the buds fill out more with some frosty leaves soon.

Hey everyone :-).
There is not much to tell this week ☺️
A Wonder Pie was removed due to lack of space.
So this is still going on here and the diary of the cup :-)
It is growing very nicely, and I am looking forward to seeing what she is doing this week 🙏🏻
This week she is getting some Enhancer Green House Bio for the first time.
I wish you all a nice week 👍
Stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow ☘️🌱

We're back from vacation!! These did great on autopilot, of the 6 plants, these 2 are definitely my favorite.. a simple 4way LST when all tops come in level makes me happy 😻. they're still a little too dark/overfed so we're going super light for a while.. We raised the Solux350 a few inches as well, they're stretching fast... all other plants were showing early signs of cal-mag def so we adjusted strengths for everyone..
We have the Solux350 at 75% power, we'll keep it here until their flowering stretch is over and finish out at 100%...I'm really curious to see if resin production using 2835pro/Osram combo is comparable to what 301b/Osram does.. We have another 300watt using these diodes and that tent is a frost factory lmao..not too much else to report, it was nice not returning home to dead plants lol..thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!!

Plants continued to stretch last week, I had to weave a couple branches through the top screen as well to keep them level with the canopy. Overall it’s going good, I did a defoliation again a few days ago to try and open up as many budding sites as possible to the light. I noticed some nutrient burn on my leaf tips at the end of last week so I diluted the reservoir water with 3 gal of fresh water. My HPS light is still turned down to 750w as the light output at the top of the canopy exceeds 75 000 lux directly under the light even turned down. I have a light mover moving my light though so it’s not always in one spot. This is only my second crop using this light mover though so I’m still adjusting its speed and pause time and doing some experimenting with it...lol smell is normal still, not strong but it’s noticeable when you open up the tent. I will be updating more pictures and videos throughout the week as well. Cheers 💨

the buds are very small, i had the same problem on the motherplant that i grew in hydro, its just a very bad phenotype, i had 2 of these in the package of 10 seeds, 8/10 was very good plants with very big yields of 125 grams/plant wich took very less space in the growroom. i yielded 170grams of this pheno in the rdwc system but the plant was very big ( took almost the whole tent in) so i reccomend not groIng this in hydro, it also finishes faster in soil with autumn colors at the end.
i have a feeling the buds will get more weight in the coming week this is also only a 104watt LED.
