Description Autoflowering strain. This is the result of the cross between our most awarded strain, the original Cream Caramel®️ (SWS04), and an exotic purple flowered autoflowering strain, descending from Pakistani Kush ancestors. This plant looks like an indica strain, with a short internodal distance, numerous small branches in the main stem, compact buds and a big main cola. This strain is a great resin producer. The aroma of Black Cream Auto®️ (SWS37) is very sweet and fruity, with a background that features outstanding earthy tones inherited from our Cream Caramel®️. Gender Feminised Genes 95% Indica / 5% Sativa Genetics Cream Caramel x Pakistani Kush (automatic) Harvest 350 - 550 g/m² Flowering 32 - 42 days THC 15.0 - 18.0% CBD 0.7 - 0.8% Vegetation 21 - 36 days Ruderalis 3% Room Type Indoor Room Type Outdoor Room Type Greenhouse

The flowers are getting bigger and more resinous. Unfortunately, the plant has spider mites, which is why ladybugs and pest predators are also being used. I hope this will at least save the plant to some extent. Flowering day: 30

These ladies are really stretching this week. I should see the stretch slow down in the next couple of days. Looks like bud production is just starting. I reduced the amount of nitrogen in my feed and will continue over the next few weeks.

🌸 BlueBerry – Week 5 Flower Report Grower’s Journal | Zamnesia BlueBerry ⸻ 🌱 The Girls in Full Bloom Both BlueBerry #1 and #2 are absolutely stunning this week: • Size: Towering beauties, full presence in the room. • Bud Formation: Large, well-stacked flowers building from bottom to top, showing the real effect of the ICL 300 inner canopy lights. • Pheno Difference: • Pheno #1 is forming a dominant central cola, reaching tall and thick — a real spear. • Pheno #2 is slightly more balanced across branches, but still bulking fast. • Hairs (Pistils): Beautiful white pistils everywhere — vibrant, strong, and reaching out like nature’s way of saying, “I’m ready to bloom.” This early hair explosion is a promise of dense, resinous flowers soon to come. ⸻ 💡 ICL 300 – Fruits of the Light The inner canopy lights are proving their worth: • Buds aren’t just forming at the top, but all the way down the structure. • No wasted shadow zones, no underdeveloped sites. • It feels like the plant is blooming in 360°, thanks to the way the ICL spreads light deep into the canopy. The difference between a regular top light and this combination is day and night, and now it’s visible in every flower forming. ⸻ Nutrition Update – Bringing Back All-In-One Liquid This week we reintroduced the Aptus All-In-One Liquid into the feeding mix. Why? • To give the plants a broad-spectrum nutritional push right at mid-flower. • Ensures no deficiency or slowdown during this critical bud development stage. • Works hand in hand with Top Booster and CalMag to support cell expansion and flower density. At this stage, the girls are hungry and hard at work, so it’s the right time to fuel them properly. ⸻ 🔄 Quick Recap of the Journey So Far • Cannakan germination → soil prep with Aptus amendments → steady veg → training + defoliation → flower induction. • Week 4 brought early frost and strong stacking. • Week 5 now brings real bulk, pistil fireworks, and inner canopy buds rising. This has been a textbook BlueBerry journey so far — stable, strong, beautiful. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect Next (Week 6 and Beyond) • More Bud Bulk: Flowers will gain weight and density quickly from here. • Pistil Transition: Some of those white hairs will start to orange and curl as new sets keep pushing. • Trichome Explosion: Frost will build across leaves and flowers, giving that snowy BlueBerry look. • Terpenes Rising: Expect the first real waves of that nostalgic, sweet-fruity BlueBerry scent. What not to expect: major height gain. The stretch is over, from here, all energy goes into flower expansion and resin production. ⸻ 💬 Final Thoughts Week 5 is the moment where the BlueBerry girls are no longer just “plants” — they are flowering powerhouses. Frost, pistils, bulk, and balance. With the ICL 300 feeding the canopy from the inside and the All-In-One Liquid giving them the push they need, these ladies are on track to become legends in their own right. BlueBerry #1’s towering cola and BlueBerry #2’s even structure are both testaments to genetic quality and environmental harmony. It’s a pleasure to watch them evolve — and even more to share their journey 🌸✨. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

No more base nutrients. Just feeding with extra Boost and a small bit of PK. I will reduce this further nearer to chop. I think this is the last week now. 2 girls have maybe another 2 weeks to go. But the other 26 are almost done. 2 different phenos. 1 is shorter and compact. Finishing quicker. The other wants to stretch and finish a week or so after.. Both smell like grapes, black current, lemon and a touch of deisal. Very beautiful! Reduced the light today. 11hrs light. 13hrs dark Much love Peace 💚

The outdoor ladies are enjoying the nice weather and doing very well. Divine Rapier is also beginning to bloom. Unfortunately, it's supposed to rain a lot next week. We're hoping for the best!

So, Week 4 is done and the Sweet Seeds Gorilla Girl XL Autos are slowly coming along. It has been even colder in Canada this past week and temperatures in the tent have been hovering around the 70 degree mark. The humidity has come up a bit to around 30% and this is an improvement but the combination of too cold + humidity too low = small, struggling but surviving plants. It’s disappointing but this is consistently my toughest grow cycle of the year. Other than that, I increased the water to 4 litres per watering which is still being done every 4th day- so that’s 0.7 of a litre per plant per day. Although I was planning on topping all four of these plants following my previous Sweet Seeds grow experience, these ladies are just not up for it- too small, too slow and surviving not thriving. I will look forward to that with my next and final Sweet Seeds grow so stay tuned for that in future. Mom’s Tip for Week #4- Cleanliness is next to Godliness!… I wholeheartedly feel that a clean and organized tent/grow room is essential for a successful grow. I often see other growers leaving dead foliage to pile up in the bottom of their tents, watering with no drip trays or not cleaning their space in between grow cycles. They are often plagued with unwanted visitors, fungal infections and a nasty build up of crud in the most precious place- your happy garden! Here are my top tips for keeping your tent/grow room clean, organized and consistently productive. Always remove dead or defoliated foliage from the bottom of your tent and take it all the way out of the immediate growing area/room. Biodegrading foliage provides the perfect environment for unwanted insects/pests to hide in and feed on- potentially creating an infestation that could devastate your crop and contaminate future grows. I place all green materials including my post harvest plants into the compost pile where it breaks down creating beautiful, natural fertilizer for future grows! Always use drip trays when watering or clean up excess dirty water that seeps through your pots/containers- potentially creating ideal conditions for various fungi and molds that can affect your plants, equipment and perhaps even you. I use inexpensive, plastic drip trays to catch any run off instead of relying on the waterproof bottom that is sold with my tent. I have personally witnessed the mold that can grow on and between these waterproof bottoms and the actual bottom of your tent as well as moisture so severe that it rotted through the stitching/seams of an otherwise perfect tent. Always clean your tent/grow room in between each and every grow cycle as well as throughout the grow as needed- potentially avoiding cross contamination from the previous grow and maintaining a high daily standard. Aside from insects and pests, fungi and molds- pollen from a previous grow gone wrong can wreak havoc on future grows if not dealt with correctly. I thoroughly vacuum my entire tent and wipe it down with a hot water/bleach solution applied with a spray bottle and a clean cloth. I also use a cordless Black and Decker hand vac conveniently mounted on a wall near the tent for daily maintenance and clean ups as needed. Keeping your tent, immediate grow space and supplies organized will also make things easier. I keep everything up and off the floors and if possible stored in rubbermaid type containers. This allows for quick and easy sweeping/vacuuming, wiping/dusting and the deep cleans required in between grows. All of the above mentioned tips will help increase the odds in your favour for a successful grow/harvest but they will also increase the longevity of your equipment too. Growing Cannabis at home can be quite a hefty initial investment so if a little light cleaning can make my core components (tent, lights, intake/exhaust fans, etc.) last longer, work better and equal more bang for my buck- it’s a no brainer!

Frosting and thickening up nicely, no sign of milky trichs yet. Hopefully done in about 2 weeks.

This plant is doing very well she was donated to a Cuban friend I have which actually has two of them and they are very well she is very tall with large branches despite being on a small pot she has been fed nutrients once a week no training has been done on her despite all that she's looking fantastic I did not want to keep her with me because I don't know if they're flowering cycle will be done by the 1st of October if not then rain and humidity is too high to be able to crop something outside in Ontario. Thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow.

Day 8, start of week 2. First off stay safe garden family! I am overly pleased with how these two ladies are responding to the LST. I noticed when sitting on the floor the big bud had gained a little aroma👃very excited about that. Decided to lower the ph to try and bring the soil ph down a little bit day 10 is the next scheduled water and will probably water @ ph6.15. Then recheck soil. Any how drop me a line let me know what you think. I'm always open to suggestions. Happy Gardening Everyone!

D57 F13 - The week is off to a good start. This lady continues to bush out AND stretch at the same time! I started doing some minimal HST - just to try to keep her going as much "out" as possible, as opposed to "up." D59 F15 - Feeding every other day was just not cutting it anymore, therefore, I started feeding daily this week. There are two other plants in the tent besides this Zkittles, one Sour Diesel and one 707 Headband. So, I'm currently mixing up 12 gal. of nutes in a batch, feeding 6 gal every day - 2 gal/day per plant. Check out the ladies getting fed in the video I included above ;-) Also, I took several pics today; some of those pretty buds getting of to a good start.

Day 36. One girl is shooting the sky other still have that unhealthy look, made my mind - its genetics and i can't do anything. Girls got second feed, looks happy and hopefully will bring some nice flowers. Took some leaves down, spread a bit, but most of work will be done next week, if i will dare ;))) Last time used Root Juice, added Acti-Vera, increased Bloom and Heaven. Day 40. After last feed, girls got small rusty spots on 4-5 leaves total, cut out cal mag for couple weeks. Heavy training, its always tricky to decide what to do with Autos and i have almost no knowledge, but i have SPA Queen and Midget aka Margaret ;))) both different, but bushy, had to clear Midget really heavily and still loads future airbuds left, but maybe ... ;))) Girls drink 3 liters every day, highest rate ever, but i relate it to most powerfull exhaust ever. Some leaves on both plants got strange mutation, like leaf tries to branch out ... Never seen anything like this. But by height i presume it happend on first feed, late Root Juice aftermath ? Happy Growing !

Vorblüten. Insgesamt wirken sie gesund, mit kräftig grünen Blättern und ohne Anzeichen von Mangel oder Stress. Die Beleuchtung läuft nun im 12/12-Zyklus. Der Abstand zur Lampe wird regelmäßig kontrolliert und angepasst, um Verbrennungen zu vermeiden. Die Temperaturen liegen tagsüber bei etwa 26 - 28 Grad, nachts bei 18–20 Grad. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit pendelt sich bei etwa 45 bis 50 Prozent ein. Die Pflanzen werden alle zwei bis drei Tage nach Bedarf gegossen. Diese Woche gab es die erste Gabe Blütedünger mit reduziertem Stickstoffanteil und mehr Phosphor und Kalium. EC- und pH-Werte liegen im optimalen Bereich. Ein Schädlingscheck verlief ohne Befund. Alles läuft reibungslos.
