🌿 Week 2 – Vegetative Stage – Mango Kush (Zamnesia Seeds) Grower: Dog Doctor Strain: Mango Kush Breeder: Zamnesia Seeds Light: Future Off – Black Series 600 Tent: 8x8 – Shared Grow Environment Monitoring & Control: TrolMaster Hydro-X System Feed: Aptus Line – see full breakdown below Watering: Manual (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 ⸻ 🌱 Rooting In – The Girls Are Drilling Week 2 of VEG, and the Mango Kush queens are settling in beautifully. Still in their early-stage containers, they’re building solid root systems and starting to show strong signs of growth. One is already stretching out three-finger leaves, and the next set looks like four fingers are on the way, classic signs of healthy vegetative progression. No transplant yet, that’s next week, but they’re preparing themselves well. Drilling into the medium, anchoring with strength. This is the foundation phase. ⸻ 🔧 Evolution Begins – TrolMaster Coming Online This week wasn’t just about the plants, it was about preparing the grow environment for what’s coming. We’ve started installing the full TrolMaster ecosystem—Model One controls, sensor networks, cameras, all synced and ready. This is a shared tent, 8x8, with sisters growing nearby. That meant we needed to reorganize the space, open things up, and give everyone room to breathe. A new ecosystem is being born, clean, connected, and fully monitored. Yes, we’ve even been checking on them via the TrolMaster app… while pooping. 😂 (Let’s call it “TrolMonitoring” from the porcelain throne.”) ⸻ 💧 Nutrient Profile – Light, Clean, Effective No transplant yet means we’re still working with a careful, root-development-focused feed. Here’s the full mix we’re using this week: Feed Mix (per liter): • Aptus Regulator: 0.15 ml – Cell wall strength, nutrient uptake, anti-stress • Aptus CalMag Boost: 0.25 ml – Early support for structural strength • 💧 Aptus All-In-One Liquid: 1 ml – Balanced base nutrient • 🌱 Aptus Start Booster: 2 ml – Organic biostimulants for root and shoot growth Mix Stats: • pH: 5.83 • EC: 1.01 • Water temp: 18.5°C It’s a precise balance. Enough to drive development without pushing too hard. ⸻ 🖐️ Watering – Still by Hand We’re still in the hand-watering phase. This lets us feel the rhythm of the root zone, stay precise with volume and frequency, and avoid overstimulation before transplant. Gentle, responsive, and full of intent. ⸻ 🔍 What This Week Is and Isn’t What it is: • A week of calm and preparation. • A phase of steady growth, early leaf structure, and rooting. • A time to align our tools and vision for what’s coming next. What it isn’t: • A transplant week (that’s next). • A week for high feeding or rapid growth expectations. ⸻ 🎥 On the Horizon – Big Things Coming Next week, we’ll transplant to their final pots with a custom super soil recipe, setting them up for the long ride ahead. But this week is about establishing rhythm. Rooting. Organizing. Letting the girls stretch their arms in peace. 👉 Don’t miss the transplant, soil mix breakdown, and full grow cycle on YouTube.
