Continuing to water almost everyday as the pot size is too small and the buds are packing on the weight and frost. I am giving them almost 4 liters of water everyday. I am going to skip today (monday) just to make sure im not promoting any root rot, although I know I will be sacrificing some microbes. I will water them on my Live first thing Tuesday morning. Im noticing a little bit of bronzing on the leaves of one, its something I get almost every grow in flower. Im thinking it is beacuse I need to change my RO filters, as I live in the country and use well water and I think It is a buildup of iron. I have crazy high iron even when I use an RO. I believe my TDS was still 400 with filtration lol. If I change the filters I should be able to get it back down to 100 to 150 ppm. We are on auto pilot right now with this garden, just have to water and nurture and I know I am going to get an amazing result in about 3 weeks or so!

Was gone for 4 days and Wholly cow has she stretched and grown! Update: did some defoliation, the roots were going into the gravity fed system so I trimmed the roots coming out of the bottom and elevated the pot for 4 hours to air prune the rest. Cut down one plant so she got to stretch out more!

Maybe one of the biggest autoflowers in soil? Thanks to Fast Buds for this experience. I think all the love I gave to her really paid out :D Thanks for following the diary, happy growing ✊

🌿 Lava Cake – Week 6 (2nd Week Flower) | Morphing Into Bloom 🌿 The Lava Cakes are officially stepping deeper into flower mode. Stretch is slowing down, morphology is shifting, the leaves, the stance, the energy of the plants are clearly moving toward bloom. Even without a huge photo set this week, the video walkthrough tells the full story: happy, thriving plants under carefully tuned conditions. ⸻ 📖 A Quick Recap – From Seed to Here • Seedling Stage: Strong germination, started in solo cups with Aptus support, rooting fast. • Veg Growth: Transplanted into fabric pots, lush branching, topped and trained with ease. • Environment Setup: TrolMaster ecosystem dialed in step by step — exhausts, intakes, carbon filters, sensors. • Lighting Evolution: Black Series 600 → Future of Grow LEDs → ThinkGrow Model 1 → now with a Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W and the ThinkGrow ICL-300 added to the lineup. The room is a galaxy of light. • Nutrition Journey: From Aptus start boosters to super soil base, steadily adapted feeding. Now, the recipe grows richer for flowering. Each step has built the foundation for what’s happening now, the Lava Cakes standing strong in early flower. ⸻ 🍽️ This Week’s Feeding Recipe We swapped Start Booster for Top Booster and layered in a new experiment: Plagron trio support. Current Mix (per L water): • Aptus Regulator – 0.15 ml • Aptus CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml • Aptus Top Booster – 0.25 ml • Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml • Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml • Plagron Green Sensation – 1 ml The Aptus All-in-One Liquid is on pause for now, pellets in the soil still provide baseline nutrition. This new combo is about flower initiation + terpene support + bio-stimulants. It’s partly science, partly intuition — but that’s how discoveries are made. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment This Week • Room Temp: Up to 34°C (AC unit coming soon to stabilize) • Humidity: 60–70% at times • VPD: ~1.89 kPa • Soil Moisture: Watered when dry-down hits 19–20% • Monitoring: TrolMaster WCS Substrate Sensor → reading EC, moisture %, and soil temp straight to Tent-X brain Conditions aren’t perfect, but the girls are handling it gracefully. Warmth makes them thirsty, and with careful irrigation + sensor data, they’re drinking daily and staying strong. ⸻ 💡 Lights of the Garden • Future of Grow LED • ThinkGrow Model 1 and ICL-300 • Lumatek Zeus Compact Pro 465W All tied into the TrolMaster network. The room is now a layered ecosystem of precision — light spread, airflow, and CO₂ distribution tuned for a canopy that can handle big flower production ahead. ⸻ 🐝 A Note for Nature – The Bees Alongside all this controlled technology, we can’t forget the real farmers of the world: bees. A photo this week shows a bee at work, pollinating. Without bees, there would be no flowers, not in the garden, not in the fields, not in the orchards. They are nature’s TrolMaster, carrying genetics forward, balancing ecosystems, ensuring that plants fulfill their destiny. In our indoor rooms, we simulate everything: light, water, air, food. But bees remind us of the real story outside, a world built on quiet pollination, day by day. A fairytale where the smallest wings sustain the biggest cycles of life. So this week, the Lava Cakes bloom under LEDs, and the bees bloom under the sun. 🌞🐝 ⸻ 🚀 Looking Ahead • AC will stabilize the room climate and drop stress levels. • Flowers will set fully, with pistils stacking over the next 7–10 days. • Plagron trio will show its effects, watching closely for flavor, resin, and density changes. • More light power may be added as the canopy demands. ⸻ ✨ Closing Thought: Even on a busy week, even with just a video instead of many photos, the story of these Lava Cakes is alive. They’re moving into flower with strength, under lights, with data guiding them — but always with love as the main ingredient. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

week four flower everything looks fine so far :D I water them with 1.5l every 48h the light I use was set to 100% and it hangs 80cm away from the tops

Diese Woche verlief größtenteils planmäßig und ohne größere Zwischenfälle. Leider habe ich ein paar Thripse entdeckt, was mich dazu veranlasst hat, sofort zu handeln. Ich habe die betroffenen Pflanzen mit Neemöl behandelt, um einem größeren Befall vorzubeugen. Die Pflanzen zeigen weiterhin ein gesundes Wachstum, reagieren gut auf die Pflege und entwickeln sich wie erwartet. Maßnahmen der Woche: Sichtkontrolle auf Schädlinge (Thripse entdeckt) Behandlung mit Neemöl Reguläre Pflege und Gießen wie gehabt Ausblick: Ich werde die Pflanzen in den kommenden Tagen weiter genau beobachten, insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Wirkung der Neemölbehandlung. Falls nötig, folgt eine Nachbehandlung. Ansonsten läuft alles weiterhin nach Plan.

week 14 / 2 weeks of flowering Give them BioNeem from Namasté nutrientes to keep them really Green.. I think it Is a great product to mantain your plants free from plagues. also I have used tricomas and Flora Booster to them. Will apply surely one dose More in two weeks and no More... not too much smell but they are growing nice.

6/26 the main cola still fights the LST I have applied(reminds me of gelato auto) but I havent given up. I pushed the main cola back down to rest flat until a different day. Fed her some slf-100 and recharge today 6/29 Shes a little roughed up after these last 3 days. She has heat damage to quite a lot of her. So I defoliated the damaged leaves and she perked right up after water. I am slightly concerned about the forming pistils though. They did not respond well to the heat these past 3 days. We had weather at 112 one day 115 the next and then 118 yesterday. The plants cant handle that

Scrog Is up & almost finished veg last week I presume . Friday I will flip to 12 12 even with the autoflower I've read there isn't a difference.

Hello everyone, this is my first experience in this world, I have always been very passionate about it and I finally managed to realize this little dream of mine, I bought MAMBA NEGRA seeds, with a "Homemade" Growbox I'm starting to grow my little paradise.

Hello. I'm starting my Dos Si Dos #33 diary here. These clones have been growing in the veg tent all summer. I had stuff growing in the greenhouse all summer and it gets really hot in that cement room in the middle of summer, so I shut down that grow room till now. I got it up and running last week but I was a little embarrassed to make a diary starting last week because I had treated the clones badly and they looked rather leafless. They look much better this week, so I'll start. I would like to start playing around with making feminized seeds. So, I need some extra clones to spray to make the feminized males. I've read about it, now it's time to try. Some of these clones I take will be turned to males next year. I gave some clones to my friend Jerry for his summer crop. I was over to his house the first week in October, to take pictures of his plants. Some of the lower plants that were not getting sun anymore were just starting to show some powdery mildew on some of the big fan leaves, so he decided to cut them down. He did a real good job on growing them this year. I think he said he was going to cut the big bud off the ends of the branches and let the smaller buds fatten up, under cover, in the sun, on the deck. This is the strongest plant I grow. It gets me pretty baked with 5 or 6 tokes. It grows on the taller side, so I'll make lots of tops to slow the growth down. And it tastes like fruity ice cream!!! Yummy!!! The other plants in the room are Amnesia Lemon by Barney, Pink Kush the original clone I found 27 years ago, Nova OG by Anesia Seeds, Sweet Sensations by Sweet Seeds, The White (Whitey) by Dr Greenthumb. I will put in next week more Fat Freddie's Cat cartoons and I have some more puzzles to finish off that puzzle book. Then when that's finished, I'll put in some Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers cartoons. Man, the spiders are getting big around here. We've had 1 mm of rain in 3 months and it's very warm for this time of year, so they are getting big!!! Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

D-37 : Done the third topping, but I broke one of the branch of the most healthy Desfran :( I'm very sad about that so I will try to do a fourth topping to have the good amount of flowers. The others are going well ! D-43 : Everything still ok ! The LST is almost over, and I think I'll turn to flowering mode winthin 10 days max.

inicio floracion ( esperando tonalidad de la planta ) 👨‍🌾👨‍🌾

Okay, so water intake 300ml per plant per day, the same 600W LED and 12/12 light schedule. Fertilization continues on the same days basically every day one day bat guano and then Epsom salt. Day 67: Getting nice I just removed the rubber bands from plants that helped to spread the stamps. Day 68: They are getting stinky 😜 Day 70: Zkittlez looks like I don't know pistils arevgettign brownish and just checked the trichomes and they are milky but it is too early and hardly have flowers on it. Should take more time and of course more buds... Day 71: I ordered some BioBizz Organic staff I will start feeding them from the 11th week on Monday.

Sleepy Joe's are wide awake and throwing some nice flowers. Stacking up nice and starting to show some trichomes now. Odours in the room are very pleasant. Hoping these ladies hit their high tech levels. 34% is nothing to sneeze at.

In week 9 my 'Fruity Terp' ladies have grown substantially and filled out the space in my HOMEBOX growtent. Therefore its time to do a round of defoliation. I take out my plants one by one and cut off the lowest branches on the stem (the ones not grown tall enough to get good light) and also the biggest fan-leaves (the ones shading the lower part of the canopy). The defoliation will increase the airflow thru my plants, which will in turn help to avoid mold from a build-up of humidity between the leaves. The light can now also penetrate deeper into the canopy now and therefore lower buds will also get more light and can grow bigger. The SANlight EVO4-120 LEDs are doing a GREAT job, my babies love their spectrum and intensity and grow like hell. The nutrients from BIO NOVA work EXCELLENT, all plants have a nice healthy green color. Since we are further in flowering now, I also add PK 13-14 from BIO NOVA following their 'SOIL-CULTIVATION' schedule.

Started all these babies in the begining of april except the blue cheese it was started 6 days ago. They have all been lst hard and have been growing very well in there big outdoor homes. Will be putting up some pictures in a few days you guys are gonna love these beautys all grown legally in southern ontario ... Im honestly hopeing for some 6 foot tall monsters .....

Flushing has begun! GG4 is looking good, trichomes are about 5-10% amber. Her buds are heavy, I've got to try the beaches up to support them or they twist downward. Good smell, good size to the buds, count down to harvest!! Thanks for looking at my grow! 👽🌳

Double Smile #1 was harvested on the 23/09/2022, her trichomes were 10% amber and the rest were milky. She had faded out a deep dark red/purple and was coated in a layer of thick frost. She’s currently drying out at 58%RH - 17*C. Chopped off the main fan leaves, but left everything else on for hopefully a slower dry. Double Smile #2 is still maturing, il keep my eye on her, she could potentially have a few weeks left. Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚

This week was really great except for some weather problem, cold is came a little bit earlier and i m still fixing something in the grow box. Roots are really large and strenght. Flowering started exactly in the 28 day. Let's go!
